12. Aftermath (2)

Outside the Laojun Pavilion on the peak of the mountain in front of Qingcheng, there stood a young Taoist priest wearing a simple Taoist robe, holding a white whisk of dust, wearing a fishtail crown on his head, and his gestures carried a natural meaning of dust.

The Taoist is looking up at the stars, his fingers silently changing his hand, and he is calculating the world's affairs by the stars and moonlight.

The cold autumn wind blew through this small mountain, the branches and leaves rustled, and the aura gradually became disordered, and behind the Taoist, a small vortex appeared in the space out of thin air, and the aura kept squeezing towards the center, distorting the surrounding scene.

The Taoist's hand paused slightly, and did not look back, allowing the whirlpool to rotate to the height of one person, the ripples expanded from the center to the surroundings, and another strange scene appeared in the whirlpool, and the intersection of the two different scenes was no less than a small lump of mung bean cake on the white face of a beautiful woman, no matter how small it was, it had already destroyed the overall beauty of the picture.

The Taoist finally turned around slowly, looking at another picture in the mouth of the whirlpool, the ancient Buddha with green lights, full of sandalwood, and an old monk and a young man dressed as a simple scholar walked out of the whirlpool.

"You guys really came early, it's better to come by chance, and you pick the path to disturb the aura when I calculate." The Taoist complained calmly, but there was no trace of anger.

"Hey! Look at what you said, old Taoist! Isn't it too time-consuming to fly over by yourself, it just so happens that the old monk has a teleportation charm sent by the people from the west, and Qingcheng Mountain is a designated teleportation point, after all, I am not a Yin and Yang family, how can I calculate whether you are drinking water or going to the toilet? The water washed the Dragon King Temple, the old Taoist, you have to take care of it. Confucian Sheng took it seriously, and the false smile on his face was really smiling, and it was quite deliberate, compared to the stars in the world.

"Amitabha." The old monk just shouted the Buddha's name, which was regarded as a salute and a greeting.

"The old monk hasn't changed at all, he cherishes words like gold, and he doesn't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, thinking that he came for that person." The Taoist people don't plan to pull the family routine anymore, greet and be polite, I've known each other for almost two hundred years, there's no need, after all, the current time is more precious than in the past, and it's a little too luxurious to stay for small talk.

"Well, what do the two seniors think?" The scholar tidied up his clothes and wrapped them a little tighter, as if he couldn't stand the cold wind on the mountain.

"Personally, I think it can be divided into two parts, the first half is an ordinary newcomer on the road, at most a little newborn calf is not afraid of tigers; And the second half, that is, since he fell down and got up again, the whole person is different, not only is the sword aura full, but the sword intent is also extremely pure, I almost suspect that he was taken away. ”

After the scholar finished speaking, he suddenly pretended to be abrupt, and his fist struck the palm of his hand, with a look of annoyance.

"Look at me like this, it's really unbelievable! I have forgotten the teachings of my husband, and I should ask the elders to speak first. ”

"It's not a seizure, but a strange dislocation of the long river of time at that moment." The Taoist didn't pay attention to the scholar who was possessed by the drama spirit, but waved his sleeves as he spoke, and suddenly a picture appeared in the air, which was the process of Bai Yujing from being unconscious to standing up with the sword qi long sword again, but it was slowed down hundreds of times.

The picture is playing frame by frame, Bai Yujing fell to the ground slowly, and the expression on his face slowly changed, such as the expression of constipation is being portrayed little by little, it is not contrary to the harmony to say that it is a comedy, the three of them are staring at the picture and watching quietly, and some time passed after Bai Yujing fell to the ground, but the three of them realized that something had happened, not that they saw anything, but that the three of them felt that the black and white light in their eyes flashed away, like ordinary people suddenly came back to their senses.

But here is not an ordinary person, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the Dinghai Divine Needle in the thaumaturgical world, the scholar covered his mouth with a smile and waved it vigorously with his hand, repelling mosquitoes and dispelling the picture.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I can't help it hahaha... Okay, okay, the three people here have all felt it, old Taoist priest and old monk, you can talk about guessing, is it the person we think? Or is it just a gifted veteran? ”

"It's all possible, but it's not sure yet, I can't see where I can go, not every time there is someone to protect the way, on the road of cultivation, it's too taboo to luck." The Taoist thought for a while and said.

"Lao Wei thinks that no matter what, the courage of Bai Shizhu to live for the sake of others is still very commendable, and on the path of cultivation, the heart is also very important." The old monk said quietly, unfazed.

"Well, from Mr.'s point of view, he is more recognizable to this young man, Mr. has read his life trajectory, past, experience, and experience. has been crawling and rolling alone all year round, and has more time to think about the good and evil of people's hearts, the truth of the world, and he already has a vague path in his heart. The scholar touched his chin and learned from his husband's evaluation, although his chin was bare.

"Oh? Does the dean have the intention of accepting disciples? Why didn't you come in person tonight? The Taoist quietly complained, the Confucian boy in front of him can be described as a grand scene of literary luck entanglement, and the avenue is soaring, I have to say that the vision of this old teacher has always been very good.

Confucian Sheng tugged at the corners of his mouth, knowing that the old Taoist priest was making fun of himself, the key was how to be so expressionless. Whether to accept disciples or not, whether to come in person or not, who here will not know? Otherwise, do you need to run this trip yourself? Wouldn't it be nice for me to read a few more books at home?

"So the last question, will he be the 'one'?" When I think of a few books at home, the book business has moved, and I am ready to finish my work early and go home early.

No one responded, and the three of them couldn't give an accurate answer, and the yellow leaves of autumn couldn't withstand the night wind, and fell down one by one, falling at the feet of the Taoist, on the shoulders of scholars, and on the top of the old monk's head a little mischievously.

The old monk held a falling yellow leaf and whispered, "One flower and one world, one leaf and one Bodhi, how can one flower view the world?" How does Yiye prove Bodhi? Flowers inside and leaves, two worlds? ”

When the Taoist heard this meaningful word, he was finally moved; When the scholar heard this, he took an extra breath of cool air to refresh his heart.

"Look again."

"Good, this is the 'non-doing' that your Taoists admire! It is worthy of a millennium! Today, old Taoist, you have benefited me a lot! "The scholar has a sincere and admired look of worship, and in the eyes of the Taoist, how much is fake, this is a proper old fraudster.

Even if you have cultivated your mind for a hundred years, sometimes you can't help but want to shoot this Confucian boy to death directly, and you will be sad, when will your disciple be able to return this breath!

The three of them looked at the stars in the sky, some stars fell dimly, and more new stars were rising, brighter and brighter, the stars were twinkling, the moon was bright, and the heavens and the earth were clear.
