Chapter 42: Seeking the Immortals (I)
Bai Yu flew for about a day, and at this moment there was an ocean under the heavy white clouds.
Xiang Soul asked, "This is the East China Sea?" β
Bai Yu replied in crane language: "It's Donghai, let's go to Dongxian Ying to ask, he must have a way." Bai Yu ordered the incense soul to sit down and land carefully.
The sea is unusually calm, a high mountain stands on the sea, the mountain is densely wooded, there are strange rocks and craggies, you can't see the top of the mountain when you look up, only the clouds and mist are around. This place is the place where Dongxian Yingqiu lives.
But when approaching the mountain, Bai Yu only felt that the pressure in front of him doubled, suddenly lost his center of gravity, and dived straight down the mountain, Jin Mei and the two slid down instantly, Bai Yu saw this and hurriedly turned into a human form, threw out the red rope around his neck, and the red rope turned into a long ribbon, binding the two firmly, Bai Yu found a tree and hung the red ribbon on it, so that the three of them would not fall to the ground.
Bai Yu was still hanging on one end, trying to get close to the incense soul, and shouted with difficulty: "This mountain has a barrier!" Xiang Soul, I, I can't hold it anymore! With difficulty, he took out a delicate round small wooden tube from the placket of his clothes, threw it to the incense soul, and said, "You take it and go to see Dongxian, and he will help save people......
Bai Yu seemed to be exhausted, the hand holding the red ribbon gradually lost its strength, Xiang Soul Xiaozhong slid down, and in a panic, Xiang Soul hugged Xiao Zhong tightly, but after all, Xiao Zhong was tall and the center of gravity was down, so he still fell heavily on the ground when landing, but fortunately, Xiang Soul fell on Xiao Zhong so that he would not be injured.
Xiang Soul looked at the towering mountain, the top of the mountain did not enter the clouds, without the help of Bai Yu, I didn't know how to go up the mountain, and then looked at Xiaozhong, only to see that his eyes were closed, still with a desperate expression before death, and blamed himself: "If I hadn't been greedy for playing and mistaking the opportunity to find you, you wouldn't have suffered this calamity, alas, ......" Another burst of sadness.
He looked at the top of the mountain in the clouds again and made up his mind, took off the light yarn he was holding, helped Xiaozhong up, carried Xiaozhong behind him, tied him tightly with himself with the light yarn, and said: "I don't care where the mountain is sacred, since Bai Yu can risk his life to bring you here, there will definitely be hope, even if you climb today, I will take you to the top of the mountain!" But after only two steps of getting up, he was overwhelmed and almost fell.
"Ahh
This mountain is so high, it is also exhausted several times in the middle, and after waking up, it continues to climb up, close to the top of the mountain, the air is thin, and the weight bearing time is too long, after all, after climbing for three days and three nights, the fragrant soul finally can't support the fainting.
At this time, the old man walked down from the mountain to collect medicine, the old man was dressed in green clothes, ragged, carrying a medicine basket, Xu was afraid of the sun, and covered his head with a rag behind him, but this person's face looked very old, white hair and white eyebrows, but his pace was very light, and he hummed a tune in his mouth, like a little girl.
Seeing the two people lying on the ground, they looked down for a long time before they were frightened, jumped back, smiled again, stepped forward and only patted the incense soul, and shouted: "Little girl! Female Doll! β
Seeing the fragrance soul respond, he felt bored, pursed his mouth again, and exhaled at the fragrance soul, and the fragrance soul gradually woke up.
Xiang Soul's face was pale and haggard, the dampness on the mountain was too heavy, and there was some mud sticking to his face. When the old man saw that Xiang Soul had woken up, he said with a smile: "Little girl, put him down and go with me to collect medicine, okay?" β
Xiang Soul crawled for a few days and nights, and finally saw people, and was very relieved, and asked, "Old man, are you Dongxian?" β
The old man replied, "What is Dongxian?" I'm not an old man either. Put down this big guy and take medicine with me, okay? "The look of prayer is very cute.
Xiang Soul said: "Old man, this person in me is he-please help me find Dongxian and save him." β
The old man pursed his lips again and said, "Oops! This man is already dead, what are you doing behind his back, throw it away! Throw it away! β
Xiang Soul said: "Old man, if he is really dead, I have been carrying a weight on this mountain and climbing for three days and nights, why is he still fine, if he dies, won't the body rot?" β
The old man snorted his hair and said, "That's right! Then if you don't collect medicine with me, I won't go with you to find that Dongxian! Hum! β
"Grandpa, if you can come here to collect medicine, it means that you must be familiar with this place, so you can help show the way, please." After saying that, he lay on the ground again, maintaining his strength and preparing to crawl forward.
The old man said, "Oh well, I see that you are reluctant to throw this piece away, so you get up first." β
The old man blew on Xiang Soul again, Xiang Soul looked at him, tried again, and his strength seemed to have really recovered, and he actually stood up, and the old man said: "You go further, there is a man in blue, oops, you ask him if it is." β
Xiang Soul was very moved and said: "Thank you grandfather!" β
"Hey! Wait a minute! Don't say you've seen me! Let's go! β
So contrary to the Xiang Soul, the Xiang Soul moved forward step by step, walked for a long time, and saw an old man in blue clothes with an extraordinary temperament in a thorny wildflower, which was very similar to the figure and appearance of the old man just now, and Xiang Soul said in his heart: The person Bai Yu is looking for is called Dong Xian, then this person must be a bone fairy wind, he is him......
Tentatively asked, "Old man, are you a Yingqiu Immortal?" β
The man stroked his white beard and said, "Didn't the person who introduced you describe the person you were looking for?" β
Xiang Soul Heart said: Why are the people on this mountain so weird? Bai Yu was still at the bottom of the mountain and didn't know what was going on at this time, the situation was urgent, so he didn't ask so much, and he didn't know how to answer.
"Who are you?" The man asked, "Why did you come to this mountain to find that immortal even if you fought for your life?" Although this old man is neatly groomed and dignified, he speaks slowly.
Xiang Soul said: "The person I am carrying has no relatives and no reason for me, but he is kind-hearted, cares about the people, and attaches great importance to love and righteousness, he shouldn't have died at such a young age, old man, he has been like this for three days and nights, and he can't delay any longer, where is Dongxian Yingqiu?" I beg your guidance. β
"A capable person is as arrogant as a strange person, and he doesn't want to be contaminated with the world, if you go, don't say if he can save him, even if you help him save him, you may not be able to find him alive, I think - you, let's go down the mountain."
Xiang Soul said: "No, since I have come here, I will not go back, can I save this person to see Dongxian himself to have hope." β
"And who are you?"
Xiang Soul couldn't answer for a while, "Yes, who is it?" β
The man guessed, "Brother? Like, Lang Jun? FiancΓ©? Seeing that the fragrant soul didn't know how to answer, the man said, "That must be it." β
I heard Xiang Soul say again: "I don't know, in short, it should be the person I want to protect for the rest of my life." β
After saying that, he bypassed the man and continued to move forward.
The man said behind him: "In the stone cave on the top of the mountain, there is the East Immortal." β
The incense soul stopped.
The man said, "Bow three times to the stone lion at the door, give him this, and you will enter the cave." β
Xiang Soul took the bag of things, and a fragrant smell came to his nose, and Xiang Soul said happily: "Thank you, old man, Xiang Soul is grateful." β
Looking at the old man again, the old man was gone. So I walked for a long time, and finally reached the top of the mountain, there was a stone cave on the top of the mountain, and there was a black stone lion next to the stone cave, and the incense soul bowed to the stone lion three times according to the instructions, and the lion was alive, the lion's fur was shiny and beautiful, and he yawned, and seemed to smell the smell of roast chicken on the fragrant soul, and suddenly rushed over, opened his bloody mouth, and roared at the fragrant soul.
Xiang Soul panicked at first, but immediately calmed down, and according to the old man's words, he respectfully raised the thing in his hand, and the lion opened his eyes to look at her, dumbfounded.
Xiang Soul hurriedly handed over the roast chicken, and the black lion took it, held it down with his paws and began to bite, ate it in a big gulp, and fell asleep when he was full.
Xiang Soul entered the cave as he wished, and saw that there was only a stone bench in the cave, and a stone bed was nothing more, and there was an old man in a white cloth robe and white cloth shirt, with white hair, eyebrows and beard were very long, and the appearance of the two old men he had just seen was very similar, and this person was meditating with his eyes closed.
Xiang Soul's physical strength was exhausted, and he was weak, but he was secretly happy in his heart, and said in a weak voice: "You-you must be Dongxian Ying's begging......" After speaking, he fainted, and fell to the ground along with the filial piety on his body.
After a while, he stood up again in a daze, untied his filial piety, put it on the ground, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, still very weak, and said, "Old man, I knowβyou are Dongxian, pleaseβsave him, please." "Bow down again.
The old man seemed to be asleep, but his eyes were still closed.
Xiangsoul didn't know what to do, and remembered the object that Bai Yu gave her, so she hurriedly took it out of her clothes, raised her hands, and knelt down again: "It was the white jade crane that brought me here, this is Bai Yu's token, please save him!" β
The old man still had his eyes closed. The incense soul kept holding it, and said in his heart: Bai Yu has never been so serious, and I believe that this Yingqiu immortal will definitely be able to save his life. I thought that as long as I was sincere, even if I was stubborn, I could nod my head. Just hold it all the time.
The old man's body moved slightly when he heard the words of white jade, but he regained his composure.
I don't know how long it took, but the incense soul finally couldn't hold it anymore and fell down.
At this time, a copper bell rang at the entrance of the cave, the old man slowly opened his eyes, sighed, got up and walked to the entrance of the cave, waved his hand at the entrance of the cave, and the image of a person appeared in front of him, this person was in a white shirt and white Ling, looking very anxious, it was Bai Yu.
At this moment, he seemed to see the old man, and suddenly scolded: "You old and shameless!" I haven't come to your house for a thousand years, and this time I'm here, what kind of door break are you setting up! It hurt me to touch your immortal barrier, and I delayed it for three days and nights, three days and nights! Do you still have a conscience? Bai Yu scolded so much that his saliva squirted out, and it seemed to spray on the old man's face.
The old man wiped his face, and was scolded by him like this, all of which lost the temperament of the Dao Bone Fairy just now, and danced with his hands, his temperament was very similar to that of the old man who collected medicine, slapped his face, and hurriedly said: "Oh, little fairy crane!" Enter, enter, enter! I said I was here and opened the door for you early! Really! Enter, enter, enter! After speaking, he waved his hand into the air, and the mountains were no longer cloudy. He turned around and said, "Remember to close the door!" β
The words fell, and his eyes were suddenly attracted by something.
"Cricket jar!" Heart said: It's bad, this little crane has made a lot of money to save this person, and the cricket jar has been given to me, if I don't save it, oops, the world will be in chaos, if I opened my eyes early just now, wouldn't I know if I saw it, oops! What to do?
