Chapter 32: A Glass of Wine at Night
In the dead of night, Lin Xiuyuan sat alone on the eaves of the inn, looking at the crescent moon at his head, silently distracted, and finally brought Qi Chun and the others back to the inn, but after settling down, he didn't feel sleepy.
Although he was already clear about Wu Xiu's current situation, after hearing Xu Yuanyou's words today, his heart still fluctuated a little.
He knows very well that his road is long and difficult, and all he can do is to move forward step by step, open mountains and rivers, and that's it!
Inexplicably, Lin Xiuyuan remembered the battle between the master and the Buddha and the Dao Ancestor, and remembered the words of the Holy Venerable before leaving.
Master, the disciple will definitely come to that point, and one day, I will change the fate of the martial arts lineage and personally bring you back from that place.
Lin Xiuyuan's eyes re-firmed, he took out a wine gourd from his waist, which was given by Xu Yuanyou earlier, and gently poured a sip of the aged wine in the gourd, and the depression in his heart seemed to be relieved a lot.
"Why is Childe drinking here alone?"
A voice appeared, interrupting Lin Xiuyuan's contemplation, and he looked down to see a little monk in a blue robe with a shiny head standing on the street, grinning at him.
Lin Xiuyuan didn't expect that the other party hadn't left yet, so he also showed a smile and said softly:
"I couldn't sleep, so I sat here and blew the wind."
The little monk jumped up, and his body didn't make any movement, but he landed beside Lin Xiuyuan, and then folded his hands and whispered to Lin Xiuyuan:
"It turns out that the son can't sleep, that's a coincidence, the little monk doesn't feel sleepy, this is the so-called fate."
Lin Xiuyuan was noncommittal about this, but he didn't refute it, just chuckled:
"It is said that the four major members of the family are empty, since everything is empty, how can you not sleep?"
The little monk smiled:
"It's true that the four are empty, but it doesn't mean that there is no sorrow, no matter the immortals in the world, they can't escape that little bit of worry, and the Buddha can't either. The little monk thinks that he is not as good as the Buddha, so naturally he can't do it. ”
Lin Xiuyuan thought about the other party's words carefully, but felt that what he said seemed to contain a great truth, but when he thought about it carefully, he couldn't detect anything. In the end, I can only say:
"There is a way that when you meet, you have fate, since you are here, how about drinking and admiring the moon together."
The little monk smiled:
"It's wonderful."
Then he looked at another place and said to Lin Xiuyuan:
"Actually, it's not just you and me who can't sleep tonight, but three."
Lin Xiuyuan followed his line of sight, and finally noticed that on a street not far away, there was a young man sitting alone, it was the sword cultivator young man with a sword.
Lin Xiuyuan didn't know why, but a trace of pride suddenly appeared in his heart, and he stood up and said:
"Since we are destined to see you again, why don't we have a drink together?"
After a while, a sword light fell on the eaves, and the young man of the sword cultivator walked to the two of them, looking at each of them with a wine gourd, but said lightly:
"I don't have alcohol, so I can't drink with you."
"It's okay, you don't, I have."
Behind him, a voice suddenly came, the three of them turned their heads to look, Xu Yuanyou's smiling figure appeared in front of everyone, he staggered over, after coming out of the tavern, he didn't seem to stop drinking, and then threw a wine gourd on his waist to the sword cultivation youth, and said with a smile:
"Little monk, you still have one less person, it should be four."
The young man of the sword cultivator took the wine gourd, glanced at the other party, did not speak, but directly opened the gourd, and then took a sip.
The little monk had a hint of shyness on his face, and still folded his hands:
"It's the little monk who is reckless, and the monks don't speak, sin, sin."
Xu Yuanyou stepped forward with a smile and said:
"You little monk has some meaning, and the poor road looks at you very pleasing to the eye."
Lin Xiuyuan sneered:
"I like it because I feel like I've found an alcoholic like you."
Xu Yuanyou smiled and said:
"Naturally, otherwise, we are a Taoist priest and a monk, where does we have a common topic."
Speaking of this, Xu Yuanyou seemed to remember something, and said with some amusement:
"This is a bit interesting, there are four people standing here tonight, one is a Taoist cultivator, one is a Buddhist cultivator, one is a sword cultivator, and one is a martial cultivator, if you can bring a Confucian cultivator, you can gather all the veins in this cultivation world."
Before his words fell, seeing Lin Xiuyuan's gaze looking behind him, Xu Yuanyou turned his head, but his eyes lit up, and he smiled slowly:
"That's it, wonderful, wonderful."
The person behind him was Duan Yunhai, who had just woken up, he was a little at a loss for what to do, and he hadn't figured out what was going on, but when he saw that Lin Xiuyuan seemed to be here, he wanted to come over and ask if he was a little embarrassed during the day, but he didn't expect to encounter such a scene.
Seeing the wine gourd in Xu Yuanyou's hand, Duan Yunhai's eyes were a little afraid, and he said:
"I'm not here to drink, I'm here to drink during the day, and I'll wake up now."
Xu Yuanyou whispered:
"You're stupid, why are you so real, if you can't drink it, you can use the true yuan to disperse, and you just drink for pleasure."
Although his voice was small, all the people in the field were cultivators, and Xu Yuanyou did not deliberately hide it, so he could hear it clearly, and couldn't help but show contempt for him, including Lin Xiuyuan and Duan Yunhai, who was being persuaded by him.
In the end, under Xu Yuanyou's persuasion, Duan Yunhai was still forced to join in, and the five of them sat around the eaves, each holding a wine gourd, Xu Yuanyou looked at everyone and couldn't help but say:
"During the day, we have been drinking, and you don't seem to know each other yet, so since we meet again tonight, we will introduce each other."
Everyone glanced at each other, no one spoke, just nodded silently, Xu Yuanyou stood up and said:
"Then let's start with the poor road, the poor road is the Taixu Mountain Yunyou Daoist, Xu Yuanyou!"
For some reason, he didn't reveal that his master was a Dao Ancestor, and after he finished speaking, he looked at the rest of the people, and the little monk stood up very generously and said to everyone:
"The little monk is an ascetic monk in the Moke Monastery of the Western Buddhist country, and the Dharma name forgets worries."
Xu Yuanyou was a little surprised:
"Moke Temple of the Five Great Temples of the Buddha Kingdom, are you a disciple of the Treasure Elephant Buddha?"
Forget your worries and surprise said:
"You know my master."
Xu Yuanyou smiled lightly:
"The treasure of Moke Temple is like the Buddha, the achievement of the immortal Buddha of Vientiane, and the existence of the true Buddha beyond the five realms, how can there be a gift of ignorance. Your Dharma name is Forget Worries, and this Dharma name is quite interesting. ”
The little monk scratched his head embarrassedly and said:
"The little monk has had many problems since he was a child, but he can't solve them, and in the end he left a lot of troubles and sorrows.
Xu Yuanyou nodded, Lin Xiuyuan on the side was also thoughtful, it seems that these law names are not obtained for no reason, this little monk should not be simple.
After the little monk sat down, Lin Xiuyuan looked at the other two, and seemed unwilling to say it first, so he got up and said:
"The son of King Zhennan of the Holy Zhou Dynasty, Wu Xiu, Lin Xiuyuan, there is no sect."
As soon as his words came out, the little monk and the young swordsman both raised their eyes slightly, as if they were a little curious and puzzled, Lin Xiuyuan is a martial artist, they had actually seen it a long time ago, but the other party did not have a sect, but it made people a little curious.
The little monk was even more directly puzzled:
"Then where did Lin Gongzi's martial arts cultivation method come from?"
Lin Xiuyuan hesitated for a moment, but still said:
"It was taught by my master, but the name of the master is unknown, so I can't mention it for the time being."
The two of them were stunned, but they didn't delve into it, and the little monk thought about it and said:
"Lin Xiuyuan, Xiuyuan, all kinds of laws, the origin and extinction of the fate, only self-cultivation, the world, the word cultivation is very similar to the saying of our Buddhism. It's a good name. ”
Lin Xiuyuan said softly:
"I have suffered from a strange disease since I was a child, so my parents named me Xiuyuan, hoping that I could cultivate the opportunity and cure the strange disease, and then the master took me to enlightenment and wisdom, so I got rid of the strange disease and stepped into the practice, and this word Xiuyuan really benefited me a lot."
Everyone suddenly realized that even Xu Yuanyou was the first time to learn the origin of Lin Xiuyuan's name.
Then, the young sword cultivator also got up, and after glancing at everyone, he said softly:
"Xishu asked Sword Pavilion, Sword Cultivation, Li Fanxing."
This point is not unexpected by everyone, as long as it is sword cultivation, most of them are from Xishu Wen Sword Pavilion, where it is a veritable sword cultivation ancestor hall, the more sword cultivation originates from the ancestral land, just like the martial tower of martial arts.
Duan Yunhai finally said:
"Confucian Xiu, Duan Yunhai, is going to Haoran Academy to study."
The little monk's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said to Duan Yunhai:
"Wow, are you going to study at Haoran Academy, the holy land of Confucianism, in this case, you are a disciple of Haoran Academy?"
Duan Yunhai hesitated for a moment and said:
"I just went to study, and I haven't entered the assessment yet, so I don't know if I can enter the back mountain to practice."
The little monk was stunned, and then said with a smile:
"Then I wish Childe a victory."
Duan Yunhai was stunned, and after looking at Lin Xiuyuan on the side, for some reason, he suddenly said:
"Thank you!"
After everyone introduced the origin, under the greeting of Xu Yuanyou, they began to drink happily with the bright moon, and when they had drunk to their heart's content, Xu Yuanyou staggered to his feet, waved his robe on the eaves, swayed and strolled, and said leisurely:
"Drunk and singing and crazy, idle in front of the door. I still think that Xiao Xu Chang wakes up first, and he can't stay drunk for a long time. ”
The little monk clapped his hands and said quickly:
"Good poetry, although the little monk doesn't understand it, he likes it quite a lot."
Xu Yuanyou rolled his eyes and said:
"Since I don't understand it, why do I like it, poor Dao plays the piano to the cow, which really spoils this good poem."
Everyone laughed, and even Duan Yunhai and Li Fanxing showed a hint of a smile.
Time passed in a flash, and everyone drank this wine all night, until the sky was bright, the young sword cultivator Li Fanxing and the little monk were carefree, and left one after another, while Lin Xiuyuan, Xu Yuanyou and Duan Yunhai turned around and returned to the inn, ready to wake up Qi Chun and the others.
It's time for the group to get on their way!
