It was a girl who was talking to herself with an old book.

She was a little thin, she seemed to be just thirteen or fourteen years old, her short hair was neatly groomed, and the gray T-shirt that had been washed white could no longer see the picture on it, so she naturally sat by the stone window, and at this time tilted her head to look at Su Yourong and Zhou Yan who came to the small garden.

It's not a good-looking girl, but her facial features are upright, delicate and smart.

"Who are you?"

The sudden arrival of a strange guest made the girl put down the ancient book and asked softly.

Su Yourong was a little surprised, because this girl's eyes were very clear and clear, as clear as the water of Baiyutan.

She even wondered how nice it would be if she had such a daughter who was both cute and pure.

Zhou Yan didn't expect to meet a little girl in the Taoist temple.

looks as old as Chen Baobao, but the unearthly temperament on his body is not something that some perverse babies can have.

It's like being a teenager, but you have a wisdom that doesn't belong to this age.

"We're tourists here." Zhou Yan explained with a smile.

"Tourists?"

The girl was stunned for a moment and muttered to herself, "There have been no tourists here for many years. ”

Her voice has a light and nimble voice, which is very similar to Lin Congee Congee, but it is crisper than Congee Congee.

Zhou Yan saw the shadow of porridge porridge from this girl's body.

At this moment, the girl came to Zhou Yan's face, raised her head lightly, and took a closer look with her clear eyes.

"You have a strange breath in you." The girl whispered.

"Gas?" Zhou Yan felt that he had heard it wrong, and he couldn't help asking, "What is qi?" ”

Even Su Yourong was frightened by the girl's chatter, after all, what kind of anger is too out of science.

The girl quickly answered Zhou Yan's doubts, and said loudly: "Qi, travel around the six voids in the sky, and incarnate all things on the ground, "Zhou Yi" once said that the essence is the thing, and the wandering soul is the change, which is the state of knowing the ghosts and gods, in other words, the qi is deified, the qi is transformed into essence, and the qi is righteous and the spirit is complete. ”

When the girl said this, she also paused slightly, and continued to say to Zhou Yan: "I see that although your qi is positive, it seems to be not very stable with your spirit, and there is even a situation where your spirit is full of qi, which is strange. ”

Zhou Yan squinted his eyes when he heard the girl's words: "What does this mean." ”

I don't know why, he has a feeling of being seen through.

"It's literal, but you don't have to worry, it's a good thing, if you can cultivate diligently, polish your body, and exercise your internal organs, then your spirit and spirit can reach true perfection."

The girl said solemnly.

Zhou Yan saw the word 'Zhou Yi' written on the ancient book that the girl put down, and he seriously doubted whether the girl was learning and using it.

Su Yourong's beautiful eyes blinked, she was obviously curious why the girl said this, she couldn't help but ask, "Little girl, why is his spirit so full of anger?" ”

Seeing that Su's girlfriend had faint signs of 'going mad', Zhou Yan pulled the corners of his mouth.

However, when the girl heard Su Yourong's words, she replied seriously: "Maybe she was overthinking when she was still pregnant in her mother's womb." ”

"Like, why did I come into this world? Like, why am I trapped in this dark place and can't get out? The girl muttered.

Su Yourong felt that this little girl was particularly interesting, she covered her mouth and chuckled, and looked at Zhou Yan: "So Zhou Yan, when you weren't born, you weren't already thinking about the three major philosophical issues, right?" ”

Who am I? Where am I? Where am I going?

Zhou Yan's face darkened: "I'm not, I don't." ”

"Hahaha, don't quibble." Su's girlfriend was very happy, especially when she saw Zhou Yan looking like she couldn't justify, she thought it was very funny.

The girl continued: "You may not understand it, but in modern language, qi is the sum total of matter, energy and information that is performing a specific function, whether it is breathing and breathing, or water valley metabolism, and all life activities such as resisting plague, all of which are maintained by relying on the function of gasification. ”

】

"In the "New Book of Shou Qin Pension", it is said: 'People are born from qi, qi is from the gods, and the whole mind can get the way, one, less language, nourishing qi and blood; The two abstain from lust and nourish the essence; The three are thin in taste and nourish blood and qi; Fourth, pharyngeal fluid, nourishing visceral qi; Fifth, don't be angry, nourish liver qi; Sixth, beautiful diet, nourishing stomach qi; The seven, think less, nourish the heart, and achieve these seven, which is what I call cultivation. ”

The girl said solemnly, not in the slightest that she couldn't let go of the shelf in front of the two adults.

Zhou Yan felt that this girl was really capable of speaker, and what she said was also a set of scriptures, if it weren't for the fact that he had listened to these health theories a lot, maybe he would have been fooled by her.

Su Yourong seemed to have become a girl's little fan sister at this time, she squatted down and asked with a smile, "What's your name?" ”

The girl tilted her head, as if she didn't understand why Su Yourong wanted to squat down to look at her, but she still made a Taoist hand salute and said softly: "Kun Dao, Qin Pujia." ”

"Qin Pujia, a good name." Su Yourong touched the girl's head and said with a smile.

Qin Pujia frowned, but quickly stretched out and said to Su Yourong, "Thank you." ’

"What's your name?" Qin Pujia asked.

"His name is Zhou Yan, and my name is Su Yourong." Su Yourong likes children very much, and now he also likes Qin Pujia, a very spiritual little girl, and automatically ignores what 'Kun Dao' she introduced herself, and Su Yourong also introduced it without losing face at all.

"Su Yourong, there is tolerance is great, it is big..."

Qin Pujia's focus shifted suddenly, and she looked at Su Yourong, who was squatting down, as if she had discovered something terrible, and opened her eyes.

Su Yourong didn't expect that one day she would be obscured by a little Dao Gu, her face was slightly red, she smiled lightly, and tried her best to maintain a kind posture in front of the girl.

The girl seemed to realize that her behavior was a little disqualified, and she whispered, "I'm sorry, it's the first time I've seen such a big one, and I can't help but think crookedly." ”

Su Yourong heard the girl say this in front of Zhou Yan, and he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.

Seeing that Su's best friend's face was red to the root of her ears, Zhou Yan smiled and said with relief: "Tong Yan is unscrupulous, Tong Yan is unscrupulous." ”

Su Yourong stood up and glanced at Zhou Yan: "Do you think so too?" ”

"It's a man who thinks so."

Zhou Yan didn't care about what Su Girlfriend's thoughts at all, and directly and ruthlessly exposed it.

Su Yourong was extremely embarrassed, so he wanted to hit Zhou Yan, but was directly dodged by Zhou Yan.

"I used to be alone in the courtyard to practice, but now that you two are here, it's quite interesting."

Qin Pujia looked like a little adult and said softly.

Su Yourong obviously hadn't recovered from the state just now, and he didn't speak at this time.

And at this time, the middle-aged Taoist priest who was walking with Zhou Yan and Su Yourong just now walked in.

Seeing Zhou Yan and Su Yourong, he also smiled simply: "The two laymen are here, and Su Zhai is ready." ”

"Dao Chief, who is this girl?" Su Yourong couldn't help but ask.

Zhou Yan was also a little curious, after all, he hadn't seen it before, and he guessed that it should be the little apprentice of this Dao Master.

"Oh, she's my uncle." The middle-aged Taoist priest introduced.

The middle-aged Taoist priest looked at Qin Pujia and asked softly, "Uncle Shi, you didn't collide with the two laymen, did you?" ”

"No, Xiaolang, I had a good chat with these two guests." Qin Pujia said in an old-fashioned manner, and she asked again: "Is the meal ready, I'm a little hungry." ”

"Ready." The middle-aged Taoist priest said.

"Open the meal, open the meal." When Qin Pujia heard this, she also left the three of them and walked out of the garden, as if she was running in the direction of the kitchen.

Compared with the way the gods chattered just now, it is obvious that Qin Pujia at this time is the real little girl's temperament.

"Division... Uncle? ”

Zhou Yan knew that sometimes the generations within the Taoist family would be reversed from the age, but he really didn't expect that this little girl would be the uncle of the middle-aged Taoist priest in front of him, and she was also a little lang...

"Yes, Uncle Shi." The Taoist priest nodded and explained: "She is the apprentice of the ancestor, the apprentice of the ancestor is my master, I am a halfway monk, and Uncle Pujia's words are to cultivate with the ancestor since childhood." ”

"Then she doesn't have to go to school?" Su Yourong asked a question very keenly.

The Taoist priest smiled and shook his head: "It's not time to go to school yet." ”

"But she should be thirteen or fourteen years old, isn't it time yet?" Su Yourong asked.

"That's not what it means, Uncle Xiao has already passed the internal recommendation exam of the Department of Philosophy of Peking University, and he will go directly to the Department of Philosophy of Peking University to report in another year." Speaking of this, the Taoist priest also said proudly.

Zhou Yan almost didn't stand firm: "How old is she?" ”

"I'm 14 years old." The Taoist priest said.

"Ahem."

Zhou Yan didn't expect that the genius would be by my side, and he could go to Peking University at the age of 15, which is already comparable to some grade-skipping prodigies.

In these years, even Taoist priests have come to roll students.

"That's amazing." Su Yourong was surprised.

"It must be amazing, the master has two apprentices, one is the master, and the other is the little uncle, but the little uncle has the true inheritance of the ancestor." Speaking of Qin Pujia, the middle-aged Taoist priest also had a red face, and he had the demeanor of an elder when he looked at his own unicorn.

"Okay, let's go to fast, if you don't eat, the meal will be cold." The Taoist priest said.

"Is the Taoist Master the master of Longquan Temple?" Zhou Yan asked.

"No, the Guanzhu is my senior brother, but the senior brother went to do an academic exchange, and I helped him watch the Guanzi." The Taoist priest said.

"That's right."

...

The place of fasting is in the hall of the Ryusenkan.

Originally, the scene of ridicule in the courtyard was no longer there, but there were many Taoist priests wearing Taoist robes fasting.

When they saw Su Yourong and Zhou Yan, the young Taoist priests were also a little surprised, but when they saw that it was brought by the middle-aged Taoist leader, they were also eating their fasting in silence, and some of them were also chanting the mantra of fasting in a low voice, while eating, very particular.

Wang Lang, the middle-aged Taoist leader, led Zhou Yan and Su Yourong to the pilgrims through the middle hall and came to the place where the pilgrims were fasting, where some vegetarian food had been prepared.

There are fried tofu with salt and dried bamboo shoots, fried bamboo shoots with fungus, and roasted pine nuts with chestnuts... It is basically a vegetarian meal made of some things that grow in the mountains, although it looks a little clear, but it is full of color and fragrance, and Su Yourong was immediately attracted.

The bowl on the dining table is also very interesting, the two bowls are placed on the left and the right, the left is the rice bowl, and the fast child is placed horizontally in the middle.

Zhou Yan has been here once, and he has eaten fasting in the same place, and he is no stranger, but he didn't see the sometimes spiritual and sometimes happy little Taoist aunt just now, and he didn't know where to fast.

Wang Lang said a slow use and left, because it is separated from the middle hall by a distance, it seems quiet here, through the stone window next to it, you can also see the green bamboo leaning on, the bamboo fragrance is fresh and overflowing, and it has a special sense of atmosphere.

There is a wooden barrel on the dining table, there is rice in the barrel, enough for two people, and there is vegetarian wine in the small bottle next to it, brewing for sorghum and grapes, Wang Lang also introduced it just now, Zhou Yan sat opposite Su Yourong very naturally, and signaled the vegetarian wine: "Why don't you have a drink here first?" ”

Su Yourong: "Mmmm, just taste what vegetarian wine is like." ”

She picked up the small bottle and poured it for Zhou Yan and herself, which was similar to the color of red wine, but there was a very sweet fragrance when she smelled it.

She took a sip, and her eyes lit up: "It's better than rice wine." ”

Although her voice was not loud, it was obviously easy to be heard by the Taoist priests who were fasting outside, and he reminded: "Speak quietly here. ”

"Got it, got it." Su Yourong whispered very consciously, she picked up the fast: "Then let's eat?" ”

"Let's eat!"

Zhou Yan also moved his index finger when he saw these fragrant vegetarian meals, and he had eaten roasted whole sheep before, which was just to relieve his greasyness.

At this moment, Qin Pujia appeared with two bowls and a pair of fast children, she looked at Su Yourong, then at Zhou Yan, tilted her head and asked softly, "Can I eat with you?" ”

"Isn't the food out delicious?" Zhou Yan asked.

"It's all the same, but there are a lot of rules, and you don't have to follow too many rules when eating with you." Qin Pujia said this, and had already come to Su Yourong's side: "Sister, can I sit next to you?" ”

"Absolutely." Su Yourong was so shocked by Qin Pujia's sister that she was screaming.

Qin Pujia smiled lightly, and also sat next to Su Yourong, although she said that there were a lot of rules and didn't want to abide by the rules, she still put the bowl in peace.

"Is there anything special about these two bowls?" Su Yourong asked.

Seeing that Zhou Yan and Su Yourong's right bowl didn't move, Qin Pujia also said softly: "Well, the left side is the rice bowl, which serves rice, and the right side is the vegetable bowl, which serves vegetables." ”

"That's right." Su Yourong heard Qin Pujia say this, and also cooperated to sandwich the dish into the right bowl.

"Pu Jia, I heard that the average Taoist priest is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, is this true?" Su Yourong was very curious about the Taoist priest, and asked by the way during the meal.

Qin Pujia puffed out her mouth, obviously still eating the food, and after swallowing all the food, she said: "These are very simple, they must be learned, but the difficult thing is the five skills of the Daomen." ”

"What are the Five Techniques of the Dao Gate?"

"It's the mountain, the medicine, the life, the phase, the divination, the mountain is the Taowu, it's not interesting, the medicine is the Taoist medicine, mainly prescription medicine, acupuncture, massage, spiritual treatment, these two are the foundation, life, phase, and divination are more profound..."

Qin Pujia talked eloquently, hundreds of words in a row, without pause, and blurted out a bunch of Taoist terms, which sounded very awesome.

Su Girlfriend listened carefully to Qin Pujia's horn, and Zhou Yan was eating the meal slowly and leisurely.

I have to say that with Qin Pujia beside him popularizing Taoist knowledge, Zhou Yan also eats with relish.

The small porridge porridge is very similar to Qin Pujia, but the small porridge porridge is very powerful in medical skills and martial arts, as for what fortune telling, physiognomy, divination and the like, he really hasn't seen the porridge and porridge show, this kind of metaphysical things, he is also quite interested, and this little Taoist aunt in front of him is obviously more proficient in the last three.

But it's so powerful, I don't know if it can be counted as the rise and fall of stocks.

Probably not.

Zhou Yan's heart was dark, but after Qin Pujia finished speaking, he said in a timely manner: "I have a younger sister who also cultivates the Dao. ”

"Zhou Yan, you still have a sister who cultivates, why haven't I heard of it?" Su Yourong was a little surprised.

Qin Pujia also looked at it curiously.

Zhou Yan saw that Qin Pujia's appetite was aroused, and he also smiled and said, "Well, she used to cultivate the aisle in Sichuan and Chongqing. ”

"Really?" Qin Pujia was a little unconvinced.

"She taught me a set of health exercises, do I want to call you to show it." Zhou Yan said.

"Yes, after dinner!" Qin Pujia said succinctly.

After the meal, Qin Pujia watched Zhou Yan play a complete set of exercises in the small garden.

said that it was an exercise, but it was actually a set of boxing techniques, but after reading it, Qin Pujia's eyes lit up.

Not caring about Su Yourong's somewhat stunned eyes, Qin Pujia grabbed Zhou Yan's arm and asked with some hope, "Big brother, where is your sister?" ”

"She, like me, went to school at Hongda." Zhou Yan explained with a smile.

Qin Pujia said with some excitement: "Take me to her." ”

"What are you looking for her?"

"I'm going to talk to her!"
