207 Carp and Taoist
Under the light of the sky, the dragon's pitch-black soul gradually eroded, no matter how it struggled and roared, it couldn't escape the enveloping and suppression of the strange pattern above its head, until the soul body completely dissipated, and the dragon's remnant soul let out an angry and unwilling roar at the sky above its head and escaped.
The soul body of the great dragon, which was nearly five hundred zhang long, finally disappeared into the eastern sky with only a wisp of essence soul light, and Wang Shen and the others came back to their senses after a long time.
At this time, the light of the night suddenly magnified, tearing the entire night into pieces like rags.
It was finally dawn......
Dongting Lake to the east about thousands of miles away, there is a big mountain towering majestic, between the most central peaks of this mountain is even more clouds and mist, the momentum is like a fairy.
Among them, in the quiet back mountain of the highest mountain, there is a small pond, and on the edge of the pond stands a square boulder, on which sits a well-behaved young Taoist who is staring at the fish in the pond in a daze.
Although the pond is not small, it is definitely not large, and in the crystal clear water, you can only see a golden and red carp swimming leisurely in it.
There was only one fish in the whole pond, and there was not even a single aquatic weed, let alone any other living creatures. And the young Taoist seemed to have gotten up a little earlier than usual today, and before dawn he was already sitting on this big rock staring at the carp in the pond in a daze as usual.
At this moment, a strange shadow suddenly passed through the sky at the top of the mountain, and the strange shadow came from the west and went east, like a meteor streaked over the mountain.
And at the same time as this strange shadow swept overhead, the golden carp in the pond and the young Taoist sitting on the stone looked up at the same time.
This glance seems casual, but it seems to be destined.
After one glance, the mountain suffered.
This majestic mountain, which stretched for unknown geometry, unexpectedly sent out a violent tremor, especially on the main peaks in the center, endless mountains and rocks rolled down, and even the mysterious clouds and mist that surrounded them all year round fled as if they were surprised.
Only the big stone under the young Taoist's seat, and the pond where the golden and red carp lived, did not move at all, and were not affected by any of the mountains.
The strange shadow in the air was gone, but the tremors in the mountains were becoming more and more obvious, as if something in the depths of the mountains was about to break out of the trap and prepare to destroy the entire mountain range.
At this moment, on top of several main peaks, countless figures were panicking, with exclamations, inquiries, and scoldings.
And by the pond in the back mountain of the most central main peak, I don't know when an old Taoist priest with crane hair and a childish face and a long beard and chest appeared. The old Taoist priest stood with a whisk in his hand, quietly watching the strange shadow in the distance in the air disappear until it completely disappeared into the sky.
Then, his deep eyes looked at the young Taoist priest by the pond.
"Senior brother. ”
"Senior brother, it's early. ”
"yes, it's a little early today. ”
"Hehe, I also wondered, I couldn't sleep last night after tossing and turning for some reason, so I got up before dawn. ”
"It's just autumn, and it's inevitable that the mountains will be noisy at night, so it's good to get used to it. Have you eaten early?"
"Not yet, it's so early, I'm afraid the dining room has just opened. ”
"Oh, look, senior brother, I brought you two brown sugar steamed buns. ”
"Senior brother, I don't like sweets...... Can't you bring two pickled steamed buns?"
"I see that you eat pickled steamed buns every day, this is not because I am afraid that you will get tired of eating, so I will change the taste for you on my own initiative. ”
"Hey, okay, then you can give me one, I really can't eat too much brown sugar steamed buns. ”
"Okay, then you and I will eat one each. ”
So, the old Taoist priest threw one of the brown sugar steamed buns in his hand to the young Taoist priest, and the young Taoist priest hurriedly took it, put it in his hand and turned it over and over again for a long time before sending it to his mouth.
And the old Taoist priest seemed to like this sweet brown sugar steamed bun very much, and ate the steamed bun in his hand after dividing it by two, and when he finished eating, he asked the young Taoist priest: "Senior brother, how did you read the Sanqing Meditation Mantra that you recited recently?"
The young Taoist priest had a mouthful full of unpalatable brown sugar steamed buns in his mouth, and said vaguely: "Poor...... Almost......"
When he finally swallowed the steamed bun, he suddenly opened his mouth and asked, "Senior brother, what's wrong on the mountain?" Why did I feel like an earthquake, and the surrounding mountains, rocks and trees were shaking. ”
The old Taoist priest stared at the young Taoist priest with blazing eyes, and said with a faint smile: "It's okay, what else can happen to such a big mountain." ”
Hearing this, the young Taoist priest nodded and said, "Oh, it's okay, there are so many people on the mountain, it's not good if it's really an earthquake." ”
As he finished speaking, the tremors in the mountain began to subside, and soon everything was back to its original state.
The morning sun spits out the glow, and the clouds and mountains are stacked and green.
Although the scenery in the mountains in the early morning is extremely beautiful and vivid, the young Taoist priest nibbles the brown sugar steamed buns in his hands and has no intention of caring about everything around him, and the more he eats them, the more bitter his face becomes, but the old Taoist priest seems to be very idle, and has been standing by the pond and watching him eat the whole brown sugar steamed buns in his hand.
"Okay, senior brother, the steamed buns are finished. ”
After the young Taoist swallowed the last mouthful of steamed buns with difficulty, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The old Taoist priest smiled and nodded: "Well, junior brother, don't be picky when eating in the future, eat a little bit of everything, and eat it with a different taste, which will help your body." ”
The young Taoist priest hurriedly replied respectfully: "What Senior Brother taught me is that I will definitely change my taste in the future." ”
After saying this, the young Taoist priest saw that the old Taoist priest was still standing opposite and didn't leave, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Senior brother, are you okay today?"
The old Taoist priest looked at the sky and said, "It's still early, the morning class in the door hasn't started yet." ”
The young Taoist priest frowned and said, "I see that the movement on Fangcai Mountain is not small, senior brother, as the head of the sect, why don't you go and take a look?" ”
The old Taoist priest groaned slightly, nodded and said, "Well, what you said also makes sense." Senior brother, this is also concerned about you, when something happens on the mountain, why don't you come to you to see it first. ”
The young Taoist priest grinned and said, "What can I do, senior brother, didn't you say that as long as I stay on this big rock, even if this mountain collapses, I will be fine?"
The old Taoist priest patted his head, smiled bitterly and laughed at himself: "Hey, you see my memory, I'm getting old, and I'm getting older and more useless......"
The young Taoist priest hurriedly relieved: "Senior brother, I laughed, with your ability, it will not be a problem to live another hundred and eighty years." ”
The old Taoist priest shook his head and said, "Hey, forget it." Then senior brother, I'll go first, you remember to do your homework today, no one cares about you in the back mountain, but you don't want to sit here in a daze all day long and watch the fish, walk around and walk around, otherwise people will become stupid. ”
When the young Taoist priest saw that the old Taoist priest was about to leave, he seemed to be relieved, and hurriedly replied: "Yes, I will walk around in a while, senior brother rest assured." ”
When the old Taoist priest walked away and saw no one, the young Taoist priest continued to sit on the stone and looked at the carp in the pond in a daze, and on the nearest mountain peak, a middle-aged Taoist man in a white Taoist robe was standing on the top of the peak and watching everything here.
The middle-aged Taoist man's face was cold, especially the pair of unusual eyes, the pupils were actually glowing with a strange blue-white light, at this moment, these strange eyes were staring at the young Taoist priest by the pond, and he didn't know what he was thinking behind the slightly feminine gaze.
