Chapter 68: A Snowy Night

On the thirtieth day of the lunar month, the cold wind rises again in the evening, the snow has been falling for three days and three nights, Ziyi Cliff has long been covered by ice and snow, the mountain road is covered by heavy snow, and the wind blows up the snow, like the sky scattering salt, and like the catkins flying in the wind.

Dressed in a cotton robe and wearing a plush cloak, she stood on the edge of the Ziyi Cliff, the snow fell on her shoulders, and in the wind and snow, she seemed to be integrated into this ice and snow.

Chinese New Year's Eve, Chinese New Year's Eve.

Yuan Yang looked at the white expanse in front of her, lowered her eyebrows and thought, the cold hit her whole body, and she couldn't help but shudder. Not far away, a familiar sound of joyful laughter was heard.

Yuan Yang immediately realized who was coming, she smiled and turned away.

In the twilight, Zhang Daoqing, Ji Yeli, Qin Day, Fang Buzhi and Ni Chuanqiong were walking towards Yuanyang, yes, Yuanyang's master and senior brothers really came to see her together.

"Master!" Yuan Yang knelt down in front of Zhang Daoqing with a "plop".

Zhang Daoqing frowned, hurriedly helped Yuan Yang up, and said angrily: "Xiao Yang, have you forgotten Master's words?" Don't get down on your knees at every turn! ”

Yuan Yang stood up, his eyes were a little red, and said: "In this cold winter, how can I, disciple, dare to bother my master to come to Ziyi Cliff?" ”

"Little junior sister, although this is a cold winter moon, tonight is a special day." Qin Tian looked at Yuan Yang with a smile on his face.

Before Yuan Yang could respond, Zhang Daoqing smiled, and with a light palm, he swept away the snow on the stone table, not only the stone table, but also the stone bench and the surrounding ground became clean and dry.

After Zhang Daoqing asked everyone to sit down around the stone table, Fang Buyi took out several plates of delicious dishes from the rice basket, brewed with melon and fruit wine, and the aroma was lingering.

When Yuan Yang smelled this mouth-watering fragrance, he suddenly overflowed with fragrance, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

"Xiaoyang, tonight's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner may be a little shabby, but in a few months, when you go down the cliff, I will definitely let you eat well." Zhang Daoqing's eyebrows fluttered as he spoke.

Fang didn't know how to cover his mouth and smiled, and said, "Does Master want to cook himself?" I've been in Aokien for so long, and I've never eaten Master's cooking. ”

Zhang Daoqing's face sank slightly, and he was about to say something, but he was immediately stopped by Ni Chuanqiong, "Third Senior Brother, are you thinking too much, Master, doesn't he know how to do anything except drink?" Speaking of this, Ni Chuanqiong deliberately behaved leisurely and continued: "But now I can't drink wine, and Master has nothing to do." ”

"Little dome, you!" Zhang Daoqing blew his nose and glared, and knocked on Ni Chuanqiong's head with bamboo chopsticks at the moment.

Ni Chuanqiong didn't cry out of pain, but was slightly stunned, lowered his head and seemed to be very aggrieved holding the dishes and chopsticks in a daze.

Yuan Yang smiled awkwardly, then stood up and poured Zhang Daoqing a glass of wine, "Master, because I can't drink, I also ask Master to drink this glass of wine." ”

Zhang Daoqing raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile: "Xiaoyang, don't tempt me with wine." As he spoke, he stared at the glass of wine he poured like a hungry ghost.

Ji Yeli frowned and coughed softly, "Master, don't endure it all the time, this altar is drunk and fragrant, I remember that Master has been reading it since last year." ”

Zhang Daoqing's old face flushed, and he smiled.

"I obviously want to drink it, but I won't lose a piece of meat when I taste it." Qin Tian kept blowing in Zhang Daoqing's ear, making him itch in his heart when he looked at the wine.

Fang Buzhi immediately echoed at the moment: "The drunken incense that has been hidden underground for ten years, if you don't drink it, you will regret it." ”

Zhang Daoqing really couldn't hold it back, so he hurriedly picked up the wine glass and said, "Let's go!" Cease! Cease! Since you honor me so much, if I don't drink it, I will really fail your filial piety. With that, he drank it all, and his face was full of thieves' smiles.

At this time, Yuan Yang realized that the master and his brothers were thinly dressed, and they were similar to what they wore in the past, so he asked curiously, "Master and the brothers are wearing very little, won't they be cold?" ”

Zhang Daoqing smiled slightly and explained: "When you reach a certain realm of cultivation one day, you will have your own spiritual power to protect your body and keep you warm." ”

"When will it not feel cold?" Yuan Yang asked again.

Zhang Daoqing continued: "At least in the early stage of the Imperial Treasure, Xiao Yang, now that you have reached the psychic and cultivated well, it won't take long for you to enter the Imperial Treasure Realm." ”

Yuan Yang nodded again and again, and then poured Zhang Daoqing another glass of wine, "Master, please eat wine." ”

"Xiao Yang wants to get the master drunk?" Although he said so, Zhang Daoqing was still very willing to drink.

Ni Chuanqiong snorted softly and said, "Master, don't pretend, tonight's drunken incense will be yours." ”

Zhang Daoqing's face was red and green, and he coughed several times one after another, and said: "How can I drink it alone when I get drunk, since I took it out, everyone must drink it." ”

Qin Tian's eyebrows raised, and he responded cheerfully, "Okay!" It's rare for Master to be so generous, let's drink it quickly. ”

As soon as the words fell, Qin Tian immediately took Zhang Daoqing a violent shudder. Qin Tian screamed in pain, Ni Chuanqiong turned around and was about to make fun of him, but he heard Qin Tian laugh and said: "Little Qiongqiong, you were also beaten by the master, do you say that the two of us are sympathetic?" ”

Ni Chuanqiong immediately turned his face away, but he didn't know but said: "What kind of sympathy for the same disease, I think you are in love with the same disease." ”

Yuan Yang laughed when he heard this, but Ni Chuanqiong was so angry that his face turned red.

Qin Tian laughed wildly, his face was full of pride, and said, "I don't know, I didn't expect that you still know me best." ”

Fang didn't care about peeling the melon seeds, and said slowly: "Beast, don't I know if you are careful?" ”

Yuan Yang sighed, and said in his heart: "The third senior brother knows Senior Brother Qin so well, could they be the same kind of people, beasts and ......" Thinking of this, Yuan Yang's shoulders couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"Okay, this drunken fragrance, one cup per person, taste it." Zhang Daoqing was full of smiles, and after two glasses of wine, his face was already slightly red.

Several of Zhang Daoqing's apprentices picked up the wine glass, and Yuan Yang had never drunk wine, but he also picked up the wine and tasted it gently.

When the wine entered his throat, he only felt that there was a fire in his throat, so hot that it seemed to be about to explode. Yuan Yang's brows furrowed tightly, she felt that this wine was bitter and spicy, where was there a drunken fragrance? Seeing that the master and the brothers drank it and enjoyed it very much, Yuan Yang choked on the wine and coughed quickly.

"Little junior sister, are you okay?" Qin Tian immediately patted Yang Yang lightly on the back.

"Don't drink it." Ji Yeli said lightly.

Yuan Yang blushed, I don't know if it was because he drank alcohol or because he was a little shy.

Master Zhang Daoqing smiled and kept saying that everyone should eat well, tonight's Chinese New Year's Eve, you must finish a table of dishes.

I don't know how long it took, but the dishes on the table were almost eaten, and it was already late, and it was finally time to say goodbye.

Perhaps because of the drinking, Yuan Yang was in a daze and heard the master and brothers say that they were going back, and when she was a little sober, there was silence all around, and she was the only one left.

Shicai is still happy, but now it is lonely, cold, estimated and lonely one by one in her heart, Yuan Yang's heart is like knocking over the five-flavor bottle, the kind of unspeakable melancholy really makes her a little uncomfortable.

Sitting on the stone bench, looking at the unfinished cup of drunken incense on the stone table, loneliness surrounded her, and her nose was sour, so she picked up the wine glass and drank the rest of the wine.

Right now, she doesn't know what this drunken fragrance tastes like, sweet? Bitter? Or is it spicy? The ups and downs, she can't taste them anymore.

Put the wine glass back in its place, and go to the edge of Ziyi Cliff, the cold wind that does not stop blowing her robe, but at this moment she can't feel a trace of cold, maybe it is the cup of drunken incense that temporarily warms her body, but what will be what can warm her heart?

When will you not feel a little cold in such a wild and snowy place?

Thinking of Zhang Daoqing's words, the imperial treasure was able to resist the cold in the early days.

"The realm of the imperial treasure, the realm of the imperial treasure...... But I don't know how to use swordsmanship......" Yuan Yang sighed softly, sat on the edge of the cliff, and looked ahead in a daze, although the front was hazy, and he couldn't see anything.

After a long time, the drunkenness that wanted to come to Yuan Yang had faded a little, and the warmth of her body was gone, her body trembled a little, but she heard a familiar man's voice sound, "Want to learn swordsmanship?" I'll teach you, do you want to? ”

Yuan Yang felt that it was because of her drinking, she thought she was hallucinating, until a man in white appeared in front of her, with long hair and a shawl, standing leisurely on the edge of the cliff, overlooking the entire Ziyi Cliff.
