Longhu Mountain Dashang Qing Palace Eight Halls and Twenty-four Courtyards, among which the Xianyin Courtyard is small but exquisite, the back door is the Shitai Yam Garden, the right neighbor Qizhen Courtyard, the left neighbor of the old master Yuangang's three cypress residence.

The owner of the Xianyin Temple is Zhang Guangwei, Zhang Guangwei has occupied the Xianyin Temple since he was ten years old, although most of the time is with the teacher brother Yuan Gang in Sanbaiju practice, but the Xianyin Yuan is unwilling to let other Taoist priests set foot in, the day before yesterday I heard that the elders in the house were going to marry her to Zeng Yu, she hid in the Xianyin Yuan to protest in the valley.

This is Zhang Guangwei's third time to open the valley, when she was ten years old, she was determined not to marry and devote herself to cultivation, her mother and brother did not agree, she ran to the Xianyin Courtyard to close the door to the valley, that time it was a real valley, no, it was a hunger strike, and the water was not drunk, a day and a night, the little girl could really bear it, Zhang Guangwei's mother was so anxious that she had to perfunctory say that if she didn't marry, she wouldn't marry, and let Zhang Guangwei be a female Taoist priest-

The second time Bigu was when Zhang Guangwei was thirteen years old, when the Dazhenfu wanted to discuss marriage with the children of the Gu family of Zhenyuan Marquis, Zhang Guangwei hid in the Xianyin Courtyard Bigu, and then listened to the persuasion of his brother Yuangang, drank water as usual, but did not eat, and insisted on two days after the Zhang family of the Dazhenfu had no choice but to cancel the marriage-

This time, I heard that Zeng Yu was going to come to propose marriage, of course Zhang Guangwei wanted to resist Bigu, and the senior brother Yuangang said that Bigu could eat fruits, and cited the stories in "The Legend of the Immortals" and "Sou Shen Ji" as evidence, Zhang Guangwei was of course willing to listen to the advice of the senior brother, it was very uncomfortable to be hungry-

On the afternoon of the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, Zhang Guangwei's favorite apple fruit was finished, and he used the dust handle to knock on the partition wall with Sanbaiju, and soon a boy's voice responded: "What do you have to say?" "This boy is a Taoist boy who serves the old mage Yuan Gang, named Zhang Fang.

Sixteen-year-old uncle Zhang Guangwei instructed through the wall: "Zhang Fang, after eating the apples, let them send the apples." ”

Xiaodao Tong Zhang Fang is ten years old this year, and he is relatively ignorant, so he said with a lot of mouths: "I just sent a basket of Ping Po fruits the day before yesterday, and Uncle Shi finished eating it?" ”

Zhang Guangwei didn't like to hear the word "eat", and said angrily: "Don't be verbose, you will go if you are told to go." He added: "There is only half a basket, and the basket is still so small." After speaking, I felt that I was verbose, is it necessary to explain these things to a little Taoist boy, and said fiercely: "Go quickly, go quickly, or I will reward you with a few hairy chestnuts." ”

The so-called "appreciating the chestnuts" is to bend the fingers and flick the brain, it hurts, Xiaodao Tong Zhang Fang quickly ran away, went out and went around to the main gate of the fairy hermitage, there are two mothers-in-law and two maids, both of whom usually wait for Zhang Guangwei in the Dazhen Mansion, the eldest lady Bigu protested, of course they have to come and beg the eldest lady to eat something, don't be hungry, for Zhang Guangwei to eat the fruit, they don't dare to be a joke, if they annoy the eldest lady, it would be bad if they didn't even eat the fruit-

Listening to the words of Xiaodao Tong Zhang Fang, a mother-in-law will go back to the Dazhen Mansion to get the apple Po fruit, just walked to the blessed land gate, just met Yu Xuan Taoist accompanied Zeng Yu to the Qing Palace, the mother-in-law heard Yu Xuan say that this is Zeng Yu, was really surprised, and said: "Zeng Xianggong, my eldest lady is closed in the Xianyin Courtyard and refuses to eat, Zeng Xianggong went to persuade her?" ”

Zeng Yu nodded and said, "Well, go and persuade." ”

This mother-in-law is not busy going back to the house to get the fruit of Ping Po, and follows Zeng Yu and Yu Xuan back to the Xianyin Courtyard, she wants to see how this prospective aunt persuaded Miss Guangwei to change her mind, but don't let the stones thrown from the wall break her head.

Of course, Zeng Yu would not rush to knock on the door of the Xianyin Courtyard, he and Yu Xuan first went to Sanbaiju to meet the old mage Yuan Gang, Yuan Gang "hehe" smiled and said: "The bell solver is here." He lowered his voice and said, "Speak softly, naturally in the next courtyard, don't let her hear it." "This silver-haired old mage is naïve.

Zeng Yu asked the old mage Yuan Gang about the situation, and Yuan Gang smiled and said: "The matter is obvious, there is no need to talk too much, Zeng Gongzi will solve it himself, it will always take some effort to ask for a wife to marry." ”

Yuxuan Daoren, who was standing on the side, moved his lips slightly, as if he wanted to say something, Zeng Yu asked him, "What advice does Brother Dao have?" ”

Yu Xuan shook his head again and again: "No, no, how dare Xiaodao." ”

Yu Xuandao people are talkative and good in front of Zeng Yu and Zheng Shi, these ordinary friends, and when they meet their predecessors, they become saw-mouthed gourds, and they have nothing to say.

Lao Dao Yuangang took out a rattan cane from the door, poked it twice on the ground, and said: "Yu Xuan, follow me to the back yam garden, and let Zeng Gongzi think about it alone." After saying "hehe" and laughing, he went out with a cane.

Xiaodao boy Zhang Fang hurriedly followed the ancestor and walked out, Yuxuan Daoist smiled at Zeng Yu, and said softly: "Wait and see, wait for the good news." Quickly followed the old road of Yuangang, and heard the "creaking" sound of the wooden door in a blur, and Zeng Yu was the only one left in the three Baiju.

In the afternoon, the Qing Palace is very quiet, especially in these palaces and courtyards close to Shitai Mountain, there are many Qing cultivators like Yuangang Lao Dao, who live in seclusion and seclusion, do not like to be disturbed, and do not hear the sound of silk and bamboo after confession, only the sound of wind and rain and the sound of leaves falling these days.

Zeng Yu paced alone in the small courtyard of Sanbaiju, the afternoon sun was shining, the light spots under the sieve of the three old cypress trees flickered, after a snowy winter, the branches of the old cypress trees were broken a lot by the snow, it appeared sparse and not very dense, these three cypress trees are more than 500 years old, I don't know which predecessor Yushi of the Shangqing Palace planted by hand, the original planting was relatively dense, and now the three cypress trees have been squeezed into one, the branches are knotted, and they are prematurely corrected to the sky.

Zeng Yu walked slowly around the tree, thinking that if he climbed to the tree, he could see Zhang Guangwei on the partition wall, what was Zhang Guangwei doing at this time, eating fruit?

Thinking like this, I couldn't help laughing, recalling the first time I saw Zhang Guangwei, he was anxious to relieve himself under this cypress tree, Zhang Guangwei was helping Lu Xian with the old Taoist Yuangang, and was disturbed by him, Zhang Guangwei was so angry that he used a sword to cut him, how could he have thought that there would be today!

I also want Zhang Guangwei to work tirelessly to deliver a message for him every night, it is really very good for him, it is his luck to be able to marry her, but Zhang Guangwei is determined to cultivate and refuses to marry, how to persuade her, saying that fish and water are in love? The joy of thrushes? It's not big, right-

"Da Da Da", someone was knocking on the wall, and then Zhang Guangwei's voice was heard: "Zhang Fang, did you go and ask someone to get the apple fruit, how did I hear those old women still muttering in front of the door." ”

How did Zhang Guangwei know that Xiaodao boy Zhang Fang had followed Lao Dao Yuangang to the back yam garden, knocked on the wall and shouted "Zhang Fang" a few times, seeing that no one answered, he said angrily: "Where did this kid go, wait a minute, I have to reward him with hairy chestnuts to eat." ”

Zeng Yu walked to the wall, looked at the ivy on the wall, and whispered, "What does the little fairy Gu command?" ”

"Zhang Fang, where did you go to play?" Zhang Guangwei, who was on the wall, said angrily: "I was saying that I wanted to reward you with hairy chestnuts to eat—hey, are you Zhang Fang?" ”

Zhang Guangwei was still very keen, and immediately noticed that it was not the tone of Zhang Fang, a little Taoist boy, Zhang Fang had always called her Uncle Shi, not a little fairy girl, and her voice was not an elephant.

Zeng Yu laughed secretly in his heart, deliberately silent, and heard Zhang Guangwei on the other wall asking: "You are not Zhang Fang, who are you?" What about Senior Brother Yuan Gang? ”

Zeng Yu still didn't say anything, suddenly something was thrown over the wall, and it was estimated that the landing point was Zeng Yu's head, Zhang Guangwei could listen to the sound of the wall and throw it so accurately, the ability was not small, Zeng Yu quickly dodged away, and with a "snap", a pear core smashed on the ground, and the juice was splashed.

"Miss Guangwei, it's me, Zeng Yu."

Zeng Yu was afraid that Zhang Guangwei would throw things around the wall, so he hurriedly reported his name.

Zhang Guangwei on the other side of the Immortal Hidden Courtyard let out an "ah", was quiet for a moment, and then asked, "What are you doing here?" "The tone is very bad.

Zeng Yu scratched the back of his neck and said with some embarrassment: "I came here to propose." ”

Zhang Guangwei said categorically: "I won't marry you, I won't marry anyone." ”

Zeng Yu had nothing to say for a while, and it hurt his self-esteem to be rejected by a girl in person.

Zhang Guangwei over there heard Zeng Yu on the wall not speaking for a long time, and somehow felt a little sorry for Zeng Yu, so he said softly: "Zeng Xiucai-Zeng Xiucai-"

Zeng Yu responded: "It's still here." ”

Zhang Guangwei hesitated for a moment and said: "Zeng Xiucai, why do you want to come to propose marriage to me, I am determined to cultivate the Tao and never marry, you also know." ”

Zeng Yuxin said: "You are wasting your youth." But I heard Zhang Guangwei say again: "Last time I went back to the house, you wanted me to marry the children of the Yan family, and you still helped me make up an idea to refuse, why are you proposing marriage yourself, are you a fake public and private prison guarding and stealing." He said with a "sneer" smile.

Zhang Guangwei's two idioms made Zeng Yu feel relaxed, and said shyly: "This has been seen through by the little fairy girl, it's really ashamed." ”

Zhang Guang smiled, but fell silent again, and sighed after a while: "Zeng Xiucai, how good it is for us to be friends, if you make such a fuss now, our friends can't do it, alas." Then he said earnestly: "Why do you always want to marry a wife, my senior brother said that you have fairy bones, you can't be willing to fall." ”

Zhang Guangwei taught Zeng Yu a lesson, which really made Zeng Yu cry and laugh, he couldn't just go back to his house like this, and said: "In the past, Lu Xian had to travel all over the world to taste the taste of the world in order to preach the Tao, you studied the scriptures all day long, and you were ignorant of the human feelings, how could you be able to ascend to immortal." ”

Zhang Guangwei heard Zeng Yu's words reasonable, and knocked on the wall with the dust handle and said: "Dada, this is a good point, I just want to travel the world to seek immortals and visit the Tao." ”

Zeng Yu hurriedly said: "Lu Xian has Taoist protection, you can't do it, this world is not very peaceful, you have also seen it, bandits are everywhere, and if you bring a group of family servants, then it is not a visit to the Tao, right." ”

Zhang Guangwei on the other side of the wall was silent, the slanting sun shone through, the shadow of the wall expanded, and the shadow of the ivy on the wall seemed to be spreading and growing wildly.

Suddenly, Zhang Guangwei said loudly: "Zeng Xiucai, play a tune for me, I want to hear you play a song when I saw your purple bamboo flute last time." ”

This girl's mind is unpredictable, and she is about to listen to the song at this time, Zeng Yu said: "I didn't bring my purple bamboo flute." ”

Zhang Guangwei said: "There is one over there in Sanbaiju, the quiet room on the left is where I refine qi, and there is a pipe flute on the small table, which I bought from Jinling by someone and came from the hands of Zhou Fan Legong, can you try that flute?" ”

Zeng Yu went to the quiet room to find the flute and asked, "Has Miss Guangwei learned to blow the flute?" ”

Zhang Guangwei said: "No, I'll blow it myself." ”

Zeng Yu asked again: "What song do you want to listen to?" ”

Zhang Guangwei said: "The "Ten Insufficient Songs" you sang last time was very good. ”

Zeng Yu leaned on the old cypress tree, and played a song "Ten Insufficient Songs" on the cave flute, in fact, this kind of Taoist song is not suitable for playing with the dong flute, the cave flute is elegant and quiet, and the Taoist love is mixed with the vulgar tune of slang and oil, but since Zhang Guangwei wants to listen to the "Ten Insufficient Song" played by the dong flute, then he will play a song.

After blowing a song, Zeng Yu shook his head and laughed self-deprecatingly, it was really nondescript to blow love with a hole flute, and asked Zhang Guangwei on the other wall: "Have you heard it before?" ”

Zhang Guangwei did not answer.

Zeng Yu waited for a while, and then asked, "Miss Guangwei?" Still didn't answer, and couldn't help but smile and ask, "What, eat the fruit?" ”

"Nope." Zhang Guangwei replied quickly and was silent again.

Zeng Yu didn't know what this girl was thinking, and was about to return the dong flute, but he heard Zhang Guangwei say: "Zeng Xiucai, I'll marry you." ”

Zeng Yu was dumbfounded, I don't know why Zhang Guangwei suddenly changed his mind, just relying on Fang Cai's song "Ten Insufficient Songs"?
