Dye Beard Gong smiled lightly: "I remember I went up three times. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThere is only one comprehensive visit, and that is this time for you. Later, I went up twice because there was an order from above, and when I went up, I listened to the order and came down again. ”

Haichao and Haixi wanted to ask something, but they didn't dare, but they were seen by the dyed beard gong, and he still smiled and said: "The order is nothing special, just guard this courtyard." ”

Haixi asked, "Does anyone still dare to come to the elders' house to make trouble?" Did you fly out last time to beat up bad guys?"

Dye beard said, "Of course there is. There are all kinds of bad guys. You can't say anything bad guys can come to the House of Elders to cause trouble, can you?"

Haixi couldn't help but ask, "What kind of bad guy is it?"

Dye Beard Gong still smiled and said, "Maybe you will find out today." ”

When the sun rose, the door to the mountain opened from the inside out, and Shui Junhan took the lead and walked in, and the students then followed nervously and excitedly.

Soon, the feeling of nervousness and excitement slowly faded. Because everyone found that the old man who led the way didn't say anything, just walked up. Moreover, the road is very long, and the students were still counting how many steps and doors there were at the beginning, but after half a day, they were still climbing the steps, and they couldn't remember how many.

Shui Junhan looked back from time to time to see if he had been left behind. In fact, he has a habit of doing this, and on this occasion today, it is impossible for anyone to be left behind. Moreover, everyone is accustomed to his leadership temperament.

At first, everyone looked back at the bottom of the mountain, and they could still see the first yard and houses, as well as the buildings and residents outside, but then they accidentally found a cloud drifting over, and then looked back and found that the bottom was blocked by the cloud.

Shui Junhan knew that when they looked up from the bottom of the mountain, they could see that there were clouds and mist in the high places, and now they had gone up to the clouds.

In fact, Shui Junhan didn't know, he couldn't see through the clouds and mist at this time to know that the clouds and mist were blocked below, and the Hai sisters and brothers were able to see through the clouds and mist. Of course, this was something he didn't understand until many years later.

Towards noon, they came to the square in front of a large hall. The students can see that the plaque in the main hall has four big characters written on it: water moistens all things.

A dark old man sat in front of the main hall, saw his classmates coming up, stood up and greeted with a smile: "The children have worked hard." ”

Everyone came to say hello.

Haixi couldn't help but ask, "Are you an elder?"

The old man laughed for a while: "I'm not an elder, the elders are still above, and I'm the elder's attendant." ”

Haixi noticed that the old man's beard was white, not red.

The old man said, "The elders are in retreat and don't have time, so they asked me to come and entertain everyone. ”

The old man led everyone to a room in the side hall, sat down at a large table, and beckoned everyone to sit down as well. The students found a cup of tea in front of each seat.

The old man said, "This is a place for monks to practice, there are no good things, please have a cup of tea." ”

Haichao was sitting next to Shui Junhan, and she found that this cup of tea was very similar to the cup of tea that she had improved her skills, so she whispered to remind Shui Junhan to drink it all and not waste it.

Drink two sips of water Junhan put down, originally drinking tea is a taste, although everyone climbed all morning, are thirsty, because it is the first time to come, no one is embarrassed to drink.

The tide reminded Shui Junhan to drink it all again. Shui Junhan looked sideways, the two cups of the Hai brothers and sisters were drunk, thinking that Haichao was reminding him to pay attention to his image and not to leave a critical impression on the Elders, so after thinking about it, he also drank it all in one gulp. The rest of the students drank it all at once.

The old black man laughed, got up and walked inside, and took out a large box with a few plates of snacks on it, and one person handed out a plate.

The old man said, "There is nothing good, the monks are all coarse tea and light rice, and the children will fill their stomachs and go out for a walk after eating." ”

When everyone saw it, it was indeed the simple dry food and snacks that they usually ate in the elders' house, and no one was polite, and they were eaten in three or two clicks.

Shui Junhan thought that the focus of coming up the mountain was definitely not on eating.

After a brief meal, the old man took everyone out of the room again, and said, "Let's go and see as you like, children, and come back for dinner before dark." ”

Everyone was a little stunned.

Shui Junhan was also a little puzzled. One is that the old man black said this, that is, he will not guide everyone, and there will be no one to guide the way. Another is that in such a serious place as the House of Elders, we are told to walk around casually?

Seeing that everyone didn't mean to move, the old man emphasized again: "Let's go, go as you like, go wherever you want, you can watch it yourself, and you can come back before dinner." ”

Shui Junhan felt that he couldn't ask questions like a retarded person anymore, so he took the initiative to take the lead and said, "Let's go this way." ”

The tide followed first, then the tide followed, and then everyone followed.

To say that the scenery is really nice. At noon, the sun is very abundant, drying the clouds and mist, and looking down the mountain and into the distance is infinitely beautiful. The architecture of the House of Elders is also very impressive, often in a dangerous place or with a pavilion or a small platform. Shui Junhan knew that it was by no means a simple viewing platform, but a place to practice and meditate.

In particular, there is an abrupt cliff, which is very dangerous to win. It was already very dangerous, and another pine tree grew, and strangely enough, one of the branches of the pine tree bent outward for a while, and there were obvious traces of people sitting on this section. If you were to simply look at the scenery, no one would go up to that section of the branches. Everyone knows that if you don't have extraordinary concentration, you don't dare to meditate on it.

With one exclamation after another, Shui Junhan gradually understood the topography of the mountain.

First of all, it made sense for Elder Black to let everyone walk casually. Up, no road, no more up. Downward, that is, retreating, no one wants to go down the mountain at this time.

Secondly, the Elder Mountain is basically round, at least this layer is a circular structure. As he walked, Shui Junhan realized that they were actually going around in a big circle. Sure enough, when everyone found out that the mountain was a gathering place for the Shui residents, Shui Junhan noticed that they had gone back to the square in front of the main hall.

Everyone was cheering and enjoying the scenery of Elder Mountain, which was regarded as an adventure. Shui Junhan was the same, but he also came to a conclusion in his heart: that is, if he wanted to go up the mountain further, if there was a passage, the passage should be at the back of the main hall.

The moon is seen earlier in the mountains. When the huge disc rose all over his body, the old man in black had already prepared dinner. Dinner was still very simple, but there were a few more ordinary fruits, and many of them looked like wild fruits from the mountains. Everyone ate it in two bites.

The old man said, "When you're full, let's go and admire the moon." ”

said that it was to admire the moon, but the old man did not take everyone outside, but passed through several doors and several rooms, and stopped in front of a small door when everyone was wondering.

Everyone saw three words on the door: Observation room.

The old man said, "There is a good place to admire the moon here, but only one person can watch it at a time, which of you will come first?"

No one was embarrassed to say first, only Haixi said: "I'll go first!"

Hai Chao slapped Hai Xi, and Hai Xi smiled embarrassedly.

The old man also smiled: "It's okay, you come first, anyone has a chance to see it." ”

Haixi opened the door alone and walked in, only to find that it was a narrow corridor again. The corridor was not long, and after a few turns came to a circular room, in which stood another old man.

The old man smiled faintly and said, "Come on, look out from here." ”

Haixi saluted the old man, walked over, looked out through a circular hole, and saw the moon extremely clear.

The old man asked, "What do you see?"

Haixi said: "I see the moon more clearly than outside. ”

The old man let out an "um" and asked, "Is the moon round?"

Haixi said: "Round...... But if you look closely, it's not a pure round ......."

The old man asked again, "Is the moon bright?"

Haixi said, "It's bright, it's bright...... But the moon is not the same bright...... Some places don't shine as well as others...... It turns out that the moon is not like ytterbium as it used to be...... There's a lot of black lumps on it......"

The old man said "um" again and said, "Let's take a look here." ”

Haixi followed the old man and turned around to the observation hole opposite, lying on it and looking out.

The old man asked, "What do you see?"

Haixi said, "There is no moon here...... Can't see clearly...... It seems that there are stars...... You shouldn't see the stars at night when there's a moon...... There are stars...... Not so bright...... Probably obscured by moonlight......"

The old man patted the tide and said, "Okay, you're already good." ”

Haixi turned around, took a closer look at the old man by the moonlight, and was happy: "You are a classmate of your father-in-law, right?"

The old man was also amused, and asked, "How do you know?"

Haixi said excitedly: "You are also a red beard, I didn't see it clearly just now." My father-in-law told me that, and he told me to bring it to you. ”

The old man smiled and said, "Go back and bring him a good one." Tell him that I know him and that I can see him every day and tell him to live well. ”

Haixi ran out excitedly, everyone was already lined up, and Shui Linbo was the second to enter.

Haixi excitedly told Haichao, "I saw my father-in-law's classmates!"

Hai Chao smiled and patted him. The old black man smiled as well.

In less than an hour, everyone took turns to watch it, and they were all very happy. It's just that Shui Junhan feels that he is not as excited as Haixi, and he thinks that maybe it is better to be calm.

The old man black and the old man with the red beard sent everyone outside the main hall. The old man smiled and said, "Children, it's not early, there is no feast in the world, let's take advantage of the moonlight to go down the mountain." ”

Shui Junhan turned his head to look, the old man who led the way was long gone, and understood that this was to let them go down the mountain by themselves, but fortunately, the way down the mountain was simple, so Shui Junhan led everyone to give a salute and walked down the mountain.

No one noticed, and Shui Linbo walked last, and she heard the conversation between the old man black and the old man with the red beard. Of course, at this time, if someone else goes to the end, it is likely that they will not be able to hear the conversation that far away.

Shui Linbo heard the old man ask the old man with the red beard, "How is it?"

The old man with the red beard replied, "Two are okay." ”

Others, because the steps descend so quickly, are inaudible.

At this time, I don't know who started, no longer walking down the steps step by step, but jumping down, down several steps at a time.

This kind of behavior was repaid among the young people, and after a while, everyone rushed to "fly" down the stairs.

Everyone felt full of strength and courage, and by the moonlight, they "flew" more and more steps. So, in the blink of an eye, everyone went down to the bottom of the mountain.
