Next.

Two sedans stopped at the foot of the mountain, and brightly dressed men and women stepped out of the cars. They were very well equipped with jackets, mountain boots, and large bags on their backs.

They are Li Lili and her party, a total of four people. In addition to Li Lili and Tang Huiyun, the remaining two are their college classmates, Guo Wen and Du Ting, and the two are in a relationship.

Also the initiator of the event.

Because of the previous events in Florida, there are things about the extraordinary that have changed from feudal superstition to half-belief. Coupled with the guidance of the government, intentionally or unintentionally, many people firmly believe that there are transcendent beings in this world, and there are cultivators. Things related to the transcendent have naturally become the hottest topic at the moment.

So they had this mountain climb, and they thought about coming to the countryside to find a Taoist temple on the short weekend. In the stereotype of Shenzhou people, immortals generally live in the deep mountains and old forests, where are the true immortals in those Taoist temples in the city.

It's a pity that they came to the right place and came to the wrong place.

If you want to practice, it is best to go to those Great Dao Temples, where there are basically people arranged by the government to check whether the pilgrims who come and go are suitable for cultivation.

"Is this the Coldwater Slope?"

"It doesn't look very tall, but the desolation is really desolate, and there won't be any beasts on the mountain, right?"

"What age are they, how can there be beasts? Yes is also a protected animal. In the past, it was rumored that there lived an old fairy living in this cold water slope, and his medical skills were very superb, and he often treated the people in this village. It's a pity that the old immortal didn't leave a legacy, so we just went to look for it. ”

Li Lili carried the least equipment, just a simple set of sportswear and sneakers, and a backpack with some water and bread. In any case, he is also a child from the countryside, so he will naturally not be like other people, "like facing a great enemy", and climbing a mountain is like going to war.

She glanced at her best friend, at this time Tang Huiyun was wearing a jacket and carrying a big bag, and she looked very excited.

"Aren't you afraid of dying of exhaustion halfway up the mountain when you carry so many things? It is enough to bring a loaf of bread and a bottle of water. ”

"I'm not just taking precautions, what if something happens later? Although the Hanshuipo Mountain is not high, it is a radius of more than ten miles and is a wilderness, so if we get lost, we can survive. Tang Huiyun patted her backpack, which was bigger than herself, and it could be seen that her physical fitness was very good.

"Let's go see your cousin."

Du Ting, who was dressed as an urban beauty, quipped: "Huiyun is in such a hurry, has another intention?" ”

"So what?" Tang Huiyun stretched out two fingers and pointed at his eyes, "I know people with my eyes, and I will definitely have great achievements in the future." I'm hopeless, you'll have to take advantage of it later. ”

"That's also after that, I have Ah Ming now."

As she spoke, she reached out and hugged the handsome, trendy, and youthful man next to her.

Guo Wen, their college class president, because of his handsome appearance and playing in a band, could be regarded as a school grass back then.

Guo Wen once chased him, and Tang Huiyun didn't have much affection for this person. People aren't bad, they belong to the category of normal people compared to the fool who chased Lily before. But it's too pretending, a strong literary and green wind is blowing in her face, and she doesn't like this kind of person who moans without disease.

She prefers Li Yi's kind of power.

Guo Wen smiled slightly and said, "Classmate Tang is so good that he can't catch up, shouldn't he?" ”

Who is yin and yang?

Tang Huiyun complained in her heart, and said with a smile: "I can't help it, but Lili's brother is really good, he was the first in the state mock exam that year, and he entered the first middle school with a full score some time ago." He is also very physical, and he runs like a leopard. ”

"Both civil and military, amazing."

Li Lili smiled helplessly and said, "Let's go, if we talk any longer, we won't have time to climb the mountain." ”

Everyone walked into the mountain, and although it was winter, the surrounding trees were still green, and there was no bleakness of winter.

Soon they were amazed to find that the mountain road was very smooth and free of potholes. It's very hard to step on, like you've been pressed by a roller.

Suddenly, around the corner they saw a dog, a large dog, with a brown complexion, a strong and not fat body, with a perfect curve from head to back, standing with his head held high.

It walked slowly, like a tiger coming down the mountain, which made everyone nervous.

But soon realized that it was a dog.

"Rhubarb?" Li Lili felt that this dog was a little familiar, isn't this the dog of the second uncle's family? But it doesn't seem right, it's a little too big, right?

She remembered it wasn't that big before.

The big yellow dog, who was not looking at them, moved his ears, looked up and saw Li Lili, and immediately pounced and wagged his tail frantically.

Li Lili was almost knocked down, and pushed the big dog away to confirm that this was indeed the second master's dog, and she bought it for the second master at the beginning.

"You're rhubarb? How did it grow so big? ”

If you take elixir every day, can you not grow up?

Since Rhubarb planted that ginseng plant, the concentration of aura on the entire hillside has been rising, and with the feng shui formation arranged by Li Yi in front, the cold water slope can be regarded as a treasure land.

It's a pity that rhubarb can't explain it, it can't speak yet.

At this time, a man wearing a military coat and an ordinary appearance walked out. Except for the guzheng he was carrying, there was nothing special.

Li Lili greeted with a smile: "Brother, I thought I was going to urge you to get up." ”

"When I have an appointment with someone, I naturally have to be prepared."

Li Yi's preparation was very simple, a guzheng, a sickle for mowing grass, and a vegetable basket. Guzheng is his habit, and he usually takes it with him when he goes to the countryside to find seclusion, and he plays a song when he is interested. The vegetable basket is ready to go into the mountains to pick some mushrooms and change the taste tonight.

"Are you planning to pick wild vegetables in this vegetable basket?"

"Pick some mushrooms."

Li Lili was quickly attracted by the zither, she originally thought that Li Yi said that bringing the zither was just a joke, but she didn't expect to really bring it.

Do people nowadays like to carry such big things when they climb mountains?

Turning his head to look at his companion, it seemed that he was a little abnormal.

"Brother, isn't this thing a little too big?"

"Is there one?" Li Yi glanced at the guzheng, and although he didn't feel anything on his back, it did look a little big.

"Then I won't bring it."

Is this Lily's cousin? It doesn't feel like anything special.

Guo Wen stepped forward, with a confident smile on his face, stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, my name is Guo Wen, I am Lily's friend and college classmate, and I am going to bother you this time." ”

"Hello." Li Yi gently shook the other party's hand, and for some reason this young man had an inexplicable hostility towards him.

The two shook hands, creating a very stark contrast.

Guo Wen is 1.8 meters tall, he looks handsome and handsome, and he can score eight points in his outfits. Li Yi was dressed in an explosive military coat, carrying an unpretentious guzheng, and a vegetable basket hanging on his arm, which was simply indescribable.

Li Yi naturally doesn't care about these, his appearance is nothing more than skin. If he wanted to, he could charm thousands of fairies with just his temperament, which had a record of actual combat.

For example, the Moon Palace, a place where only female cultivators are allowed to enter, except for the Guanghan banquet once every hundred years, men are not allowed to enter on weekdays. But Li Changsheng is a special case, the Moon Palace itself was built by him, and he often goes to watch and drink and watch rabbits dance when he has nothing to do on weekdays, which is one of his rare entertainment activities.

The female monks inside always had inexplicable feelings for Li Changsheng for some reason. Although few people dared to take the initiative to contact him, and many of them had not even spoken to him, he could still see the thoughts of these little girls who were hundreds of years old.

This is not Li Changsheng's illusion, in the cultivation world of handsome men and beautiful women per capita, appearance is really not very important. His thousands of years of precipitation, one person has suppressed the majesty of the world, I don't know how many female cultivators have their dream lovers.

Tang Huiyun said in Li Lili's ear: "Lili, your brother's clothes are really not good, and he will be compared to Guo Wen." ”

"What's the analogy with this, my brother is not ugly, no matter how ugly he is, he is also a brother." Li Lili poked her best friend's brain, "You have such a big opinion about Guo Wen?" I still miss my brother. ”

"."

After greeting for a while, everyone stepped on the road of the old Taoist temple.

Li Yi visited this old Taoist temple when he was a child, and the previous generation should be no stranger. In the past, there were very few doctors, only in the city, and there were only a few barefoot doctors in the town. The doctor in Hanshui Village was a Taoist priest in the old Taoist temple, this Taoist priest died when Li Yi was ten years old, and the villagers buried him next to the Taoist temple according to the Taoist priest's will.

Climb up the winding path, the cold water slope is not too steep, the road is small but relatively easy to walk, and along the way, you can naturally see many animals and plants that cannot be seen in the city. At the same time, benefiting from the revival of aura, the cold water slope is full of flowers and plants, and there are mostly some wild flowers that can bloom all over the mountain, which is quite spectacular.

At first, everyone was still elated, holding their mobile phones to take pictures everywhere, but slowly with their physical exertion, after walking for half an hour, Du Ting and Guo Wen, the two little couples, could only gasp.

Du Ting finally couldn't walk, squatted on the ground and said, "No, I can't walk." ”

"It's only been half an hour, and you're too empty." Tang Huiyun said, "Guo Wen, help your girlfriend share the burden and take so many things." She's got to bring a guitar for you, and there's no cable car for you to climb the mountain. ”

At this time, Guo Wen was also out of breath, and said: "I can't do it either, let's rest for a while, aren't you all tired?" ”

Tang Huiyun usually exercises a lot, and his physical strength is naturally not comparable to them. And Li Lili didn't know why she couldn't do it today, and she didn't feel any tiredness until now.

Li Yidao: "You can climb the first slope after walking for another ten minutes, where the terrain is flat and there is a large lawn, just enough to rest." ”

Hearing this, the young couple took a few breaths and stood up again.

Ten minutes later, everyone's eyes suddenly opened up, and in front of them was an emerald green lawn full of chrysanthemums.

"It's so pretty......"

Tang Huiyun said what everyone thought, they don't travel much on weekdays, they basically live in the city and don't have much contact with nature, and they are somewhat shocked by the scene in front of them.

Li Yi couldn't help but nod and said, "Qiu Ju has good color, and she is beautiful and beautiful." ”

That's the joy of exploring the world, where you've never set foot before, and always seeing something unexpected.

Tang Huiyun was very well prepared, took out a picnic cloth, spread it on the lawn, and took out a lot of snacks.

Everyone sat on it and chatted while resting, which already smelled like a picnic.

Suddenly, Guo Wen turned his head and asked Li Yi, "What does Mr. Li do?" ”

"Me?" Li Yi replied without thinking: "I am a doctor in the village. ”

He's a man with a job, although he works an average of about three hours a day.

"It should be easier to be a doctor in the village, right?"

"It's okay, it's usually quite leisurely."

"I really envy you in the countryside, leisurely, like working in the city. It's usually hard to read some books, but recently I read Apo's "On the Rye Field" and I was quite impressed. ”

Guo Wen unexpectedly said a book that was not well-known, although Tang Huiyun usually did not read, but she understood that this book must be very niche.

In these literary youth, uphold the principle of three noes, don't talk about the textbooks, don't mention the famous books that have a youth version, and don't read the best-selling ones.

"Has Mr. Li seen it?"

"I haven't read it, but I prefer to play games than to read." Li Yi replied truthfully, and his mind moved to probably know what kind of book this was.

It belongs to the bookstore that is always lined up in the corner, and the decorations in the bubble tea shop, there are basically no people.

Do young people like this thing nowadays?

Li Yi felt the generation gap, this has been several times, originally he wanted to experience the life of modern young people, but now it seems hopeless.

"It's a pity, reading more books is good for enriching the spiritual world. I have read more than 2 million words about three or four times, and I am still a little ignorant after reading 10 million words of Red Wheel five times. ”

Guo Wen sighed slightly, and there was a hint of loneliness between his eyebrows.

At this time, the rest of the people present had different expressions, and his girlfriend Du Ting had become a nymphomaniac, and she obviously liked this tone very much. Tang Huiyun turned her head, her shoulders twitched slightly, and Li Lili smiled politely.

If it weren't for Du Ting, it would be unlikely that they would play together.

"Mr. Li, you also play music?" Guo Wen remembered that Li Yi was carrying a guzheng on his back before.

"Actually, I also play music, and I have been involved in various fields, but my favorite is naturally folk guitar, and my focus is rock. Shenzhou ancient musical instruments, to be honest, I don't think they can be compared to piano guitars, there is no depth. ”

As he spoke, he pulled out his folk guitar.

"It's all made with strings, but the guitar sound is more varied than the guzheng."

Li Yi blinked and didn't refute anything, carrots and greens have their own love. The young man didn't lie to himself, he did.

He seldom argues with anyone, or never at all.

Guo Wen hugged the others and began to play and sing, not to mention that it was quite good, there were two brushes.

After a while, everyone cleaned up their garbage and continued to walk into the mountains. After walking hundreds of steps, they stopped, because the road ahead was overgrown with weeds.

Li Yi took out the firewood knife for mowing the grass and walked in front to open up a road, so that it would be easier for him to go up the mountain in the future. Maybe in a few days you can call a buffalo and build a road out.

After walking for another half an hour, Du Ting and Guo Wen, the two little couples, couldn't stand it at all, and squatted on the ground and didn't want to leave at all.

"No, or that's it."

"I really can't walk anymore."

"I knew I wouldn't have to bring so many things." Tang Huiyun was also out of breath, the mountain road was getting steeper and steeper, and even she couldn't stand it anymore. It's not easy to come here, but giving up halfway makes her a little unwilling.

Li Yi glanced at them, and really couldn't hold on, especially since these two little couples would have problems if they went on like this.

"Lily, you take them down the mountain, there's no need to force them."

"That's all it can be." Although Li Lili was not tired at all, she also saw that it was impossible for her companions to climb to the top of the mountain in this state, not to mention that the road was blocked by weeds.

"Let's go."

Just two steps away, Li Lili found that Li Yi did not follow them back.

"Brother, you don't want to climb the mountain by yourself, do you?"

Li Yi shook his head and said, "If you want to pick some wild mushrooms, you guys should go down first." ”

He originally planned to come to this back mountain to have a look, and he would just stop by with them, and he would not give up going on because they didn't come.

Li Lili worried: "It's so wild here, it's too dangerous for you to be alone." ”

"Nothing."

After speaking, Li Yi continued to walk up the path, and the others could only turn back.

Li Yi walks alone in the mountains, as if he is in the middle of nature. Without other people disturbing, the surrounding animals gradually increased, pheasants, owls, white-headed langurs, crested hornbills......

A small stream flows through the woods, and there is a pool in the middle, the spring water is clear, and there are many fish and shrimp in it.

"No one has come for many years, and there are so many fish and shrimp."

Li Yi looked at this waterhole and missed it a lot, he and Zhao Si often came here to take a bath when they were children. At that time, many people had not yet moved to the foot of the mountain, and it was not so desolate.

Now, twenty years later, the waterhole is still there, but there is no trace of people.

Li Yipan sat on a stone by the waterhole, waved his hand and flew the guzheng into his arms, put the guzheng horizontally on his knees, and placed his fingertips slightly on the string.

Exhale softly, flick the first string with your fingertips, and the crisp sound of the piano swings.

A fresh breeze blew by itself, rolling up the chrysanthemums on the ground, and the petals flew.

Towering mountain peaks, surrounded by white clouds, Li Yipan sat on the top and stroked the piano. It is not the strings that are plucked by the fingertips, but the white clouds around them.

When he stroked the qin, his ordinariness receded, leaving only the coldness of the immortals.

This is a very popular "Flowing Clouds" in the cultivation world, if you want to say that there is no depth and artistic conception, it is simply good. It's just that Li Yi forcibly popped up an artistic conception, which invisibly raised its level.

All was quiet again.

Li Yi looked around, the animals in the mountains had gathered, and countless wild animals that were rarely seen in ordinary times were watching him around.

There was a hint of longing in the ignorant eyes of the animals, a desire for spirituality. Human beings, who are born with spirits, find it difficult to understand the desire of other animals to open their minds.

"Since there is fate, then I will play another song of ten thousand beasts."

Li Yi's fingertips moved slightly, and this time the sound of the piano became excited, like a tiger roaring and a dragon chanting.

The clouds rolled in the sky, and with the sound of the piano, various beast forms were conjured, and they soared through the clouds and mist, tumbling and flying, and finally knelt around Li Yi.

Like the animals around them that are gradually kneeling on the ground, it seems that something is brewing in their pupils, but in the end they all fall silent and cannot be born.

There are only a few beasts that could open their minds, and there are even fewer of them in today's environment.

The animals that came to their senses scattered and fled, which also meant that they failed to activate their psychic powers.

But in the end, a monkey and an owl were left.

At the end of the song, I saw a monkey approaching cautiously, kneeling in front of Li Yi and kowtowing three times, and then burrowed into the jungle.

The owl also flew in front of Li Yi, leaned down, put his head on the ground, and repeated this three times.

At the foot of the mountain, the people who were coming down the mountain stopped, and the breeze sent a wisp of piano sound, which was pleasant to the ear, as if to pull them into another world.

It's a pity that they are too far away, and they don't have the opportunity to comprehend the artistic conception.

"How can there be a piano sound?"

"There can't really be immortals on this mountain, right?" Tang Huiyun thumped her chest, "My fairy fate, by the way, Lily still has a signal here, ask your cousin what's going on." ”

"Oh." Li Lili was also quite curious, and soon she got the answer, "My brother said that he didn't see anyone playing the piano, but he heard the sound of the piano." ”

The group went down the mountain with doubts, and the search for immortals ended in failure, at least that's what they thought.

Li Yi also came to the Taoist temple in the deep mountains, the small Taoist temple has been very dilapidated for 20 years, but it exudes a strange atmosphere.

I revised it, and I can't stay up late to code words in the future, and I'm confused about writing
