Chapter Twenty-Eight: Loneliness
The weather in Fengming Mountain is always slower than Haojing, Haojing's spring has ended, but Fengming Mountain is in full bloom.
A few gentle bird cries swayed back and forth between the gables on all sides, stirring the slight spring breeze, and a burst of mountain smoke rose and fell, covering the trail of a flock of five-colored birds.
On this day, the old man Qianji spread out the white jade paper in the villa of Fengming Mountain, and wrote the word "No Tai" with slightly trembling fingers.
The little boy grinding next to him took the pen obediently, gently soaked it in the pen wash, and rested it on the pen stand on the side.
When the guests in the house saw that the old man had finished writing, they wanted to come forward to see it, but they saw that the little boy took a brocade and covered the words, and silently withdrew.
The guest held back his curiosity and bowed to the old man again before he spoke: "Lord Changzun, I will greet you for my lordship."
Seeing that you are in good health, my family will be relieved.
He specially asked me to send you a piece of fine jade, saying that it was the best way to treat the seal. ”
As he spoke, he took out a brocade box from the burden behind him, opened it slowly, and offered it with both hands.
The old man of Qianji glanced at it, took it in his hand and looked at it for a moment, "Well, let your family bother." ”
The guest bowed again and said humbly: "My lord wants to know, that person, is there any news?" ”
"Didn't you say that if there is news, you will naturally be notified, and you will not come again in the future. It's not going to be peaceful. ”
"Lord Elder, will the prophecy really come true?"
Thinking of the rumor that "the new emperor collapsed in three years", he couldn't help but smile, the mediocre people in this world just like these proverbs with mysterious tendencies, and it is best to be vague and a little bluffing.
In particular, there was a message from Huiyeong-gun, "Redfish jumped on the boat,"
The man was unwilling and wanted to ask for more information, but the old man waved his hand, "You stand down." ”
The guest was sent out of the house by the child, looked at the heavy courtyard, sighed, got into the carriage and went back to resume his life.
The old man Qianji's body was very tough, and he felt that it was not enough to write two words, so he spread a three-foot square piece of paper, dragged a bucket pen and dipped it in thick ink, and spread it out.
Seeing this, the boy slipped out the door to doze off.
In the courtyard, the apricot blossoms have budded and hung on the branches. There was a branch that crossed out, as if it was about to come out of the wall.
Under the courtyard wall, a person in a white robe with a face like a crown of jade, looked up at the apricot blossom and let out a slight sigh. "If you don't return, I can't do anything now."
When the boy heard this slight sigh, he looked over the wall and saw a young man standing under the gable.
"This son, are you also here to meet my patriarch?"
Bai Heng saw that he had alarmed the little boy, turned around and smiled slightly, and the color of the alluring city showed infinite brilliance.
Xiao Tong was stunned, "Childe is really a celestial figure, please come in and sit down." ”
Bai Heng waved his hand, turned over on his horse, and walked away.
It has been half a year since Queen Xu left, and there was still a snowstorm in Haojing when she left, but now it is full of flowers.
The scenery of the south of the Yangtze River is always pleasing to the eye, Xu Manshu walked on the bank of the Enjiang River shrouded in smoke and willows, saw that the people in the lower reaches of the river gradually thinned, and waved slightly, and there was a canopy boat silently parked on the shore.
As soon as she stepped on the reed, she jumped onto the bow of the boat.
The captain nodded slightly, then propped up the oars and rowed towards the middle of the river.
Xu Manshu stepped over the bow of the ship and walked towards the cabin. The sound of clattering footsteps made the people in the cabin excited.
"Manshu, you're finally here." The young man's voice was eager, as if he had been waiting anxiously for a long time.
"Senior brother, don't come to harm?" Manshu's voice was always so calm and self-contained, without a single fluctuation.
"Okay, it's best to see you. Manshu, have you decided now? The senior brother got straight to the point and asked her about her plans.
"Senior brother, the world is divided and merged, and it is all the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao, why should we lose more than we can make up for the shortcomings?" Manshu didn't care about her brother's joy and anger, she already had something to say to her master.
"Hongguang Heavenly Dao also needs holy miracles, it needs chance, how can it be done by my generation of hermitage.
Manshu, we are all outliers in this world, and since we are born with the aura of heaven and earth, we should set an example for all sentient beings.
Lead, guide, indulge, and royalize, naturalize, and make it safe. ”
The two people in the cabin, talking and talking, you come and go, and the world will be turned upside down between the talks.
Outside, the sky suddenly darkened, and a torrential rain swept by, and one or two five-colored birds gathered and hid under the canopy.
Manshu found it amusing and took peanuts to tease them.
The man on the other side smiled, as if he had seen the appearance of the little girl who admired the mountain when she first came to the Tao.
Time slipped through his fingers, and a rain hurried by, and when the five-colored bird flew away, it was still hovering in the air for two turns.
Yo yo and chirping, if there is affection.
"Senior brother, say goodbye here, and please greet me from Master."
"Manshu, can't you really come with us?"
"Heaven and earth are so big that they have their own home. When the opportunity comes, there is a dojo for teaching the Fa. ”
"Then take care of yourself, if you need anything, bring a letter to my senior brother. There are our dark lines in the ferries that come and go, and you won't have forgotten them? ”
Manshu lowered his head and chuckled, then clenched his fists, "The mountains are high and the waters are long, he will meet again in the future." ”
Manshu said goodbye to her senior brother, and she smiled softly in her heart, "Master doesn't know how to teach senior brother, how to get more and more roundabout." When she left Qingcheng Mountain that day, she once ran back once.
The thunder was rolling, and she thought God was going to let her stay.
Who knew that the master just said lightly, "The heavens are constant, and they do not exist or die." ”
"Can the court really cultivate?" Manshu remembers the last time he asked.
"As long as the opportunity comes, everywhere is a dojo. Manshu, my expectations for you don't stop there. ”
Master's words contain mysteries, and others are just stunned when they hear it, thinking that Master is not close to people, but Manshu knows that in Master's heart, he is like a hope like a tinder.
It's only been half a year, and there is still no trace of the jade dragon, as if that day after the miracle of Zengxi Guan was revealed, the Heavenly Dao gave her up.
Where is the Jade Dragon, she strolls between every cave in Borneo, she speculates that the Jade Dragon should appear in the best place of Feng Shui, but half a year has passed, she has searched for more than half of it, and there is still no news of the Jade Dragon.
This night, she suddenly raised her head and saw that in the bright starry sky, her life star was gradually moving away from the star palace.
For the first time, she carefully examined her destiny, what if the path she had been pursuing was not in Borneo?
What if the way of heaven allowed her to cross the sea and cross the vast ruins?
What if Heaven let her leave her homeland and pursue that light of hope?
In the flash of light, her heart lit up, and then she turned around and headed towards Hongzhou City.
