Chapter Seventy-Eight: Like a Down-and-Out Taoist

Cheng Lu stood behind Jiang Shanxue and also saluted.

"Cheng Lu of the Liuyun Sword Sect has seen Senior Uncle Qin."

Cheng Lu naturally met Qin Chu when he was looking at mountains and rivers.

Cheng Lu and Zhang Xiaoyu were talking there, and they thought that the people playing cards next to them were too noisy, but as soon as they walked over, they saw this Qingtian Dao uncle sitting on the card table.

Seeing this, You Chunshan also bowed decently.

"You Chunshan in the East China Sea, I have seen Uncle Qin."

“......”

The three of them looked at the young man with the wooden sword on his back.

Qin Chulai was silent for a long time, then looked at Cheng Lu and said, "The Lord is waiting for you in the mountain rumor." ”

Cheng Lu saluted again and said, "Thank you, uncle." ”

Naturally, there is no grievance between the two, and it is natural to do what they should be.

A young Taoist came from those small paths, looked at Cheng Lu and saluted, and said, "Senior brother, please come with me." ”

Cheng Lu took the sword and left.

So at the end of the mountain road, there were only three people left.

Qin Chulai only looked at the young man with the wooden sword on his back at this time, and looked back and forth for a long time, but he didn't see what this strange young man with the wooden sword was here to do.

Although that sentence made Qin Chulai inexplicably feel like he was many years older, he was also a useful title after all.

Qin Chu looked at the Jiangshan Xue on the side, and the latter talked about You Chunshan.

"The disciple was seriously injured by Zhang Xiaoyu with a sword in the East China Sea and almost died, it was You Chunshan..... The master and nephew brought the disciples all the way back to the north. ”

When Jiang Shanxue said the word "teacher and nephew", she actually felt very strange.

It's just that this young man is both an uncle and an uncle, and the atmosphere has reached this point, and if he doesn't call his nephew, he probably can't say it.

Qin Chulai nodded at this time, and then with some smile on his face, he returned the salute to the young man from the East China Sea.

"Thank you."

You Chunshan stood there a little nervously and rubbed his hands, and then said very sincerely: "Uncle Shi's words are serious. ”

Jiang Shanxue sighed when she heard You Chunshan's uncle, and pulled the young man straight to Qin Chulai to say goodbye.

The two of them crossed a forest road and appeared in front of a bamboo hut.

Jiang Shanxue stopped there, looked at You Chunshan and said: "This is the place where Senior Brother Chen stayed before, you can rest here first, and when Senior Brother Cheng's matter is over, I will probably go to see the Lord and raise money for you, it may be later." ”

You Chunshan nodded, and said with a smile: "It's okay, you just go and get busy with yours, anyway, my brain is not something that can be rushed in a while." ”

Jiang Shanxue smiled and said, "Okay." ”

The Taoist hurried away through the bamboo forest.

You Chunshan carried the wooden sword on his back, and he was not in a hurry to enter the house to rest, but wandered around there with some excitement.

For an ordinary person like You Chunshan, no matter how ordinary things are, they are still novel after all.

After all, this is one of the three views of the world.

You Chunshan wandered towards the forest on the path, but he didn't go too far, after all, this was a big cultivation place, and he was afraid that he would accidentally bump into a certain Taoist who was cultivating.

It was walking there with strange thoughts, picking leaves on the road and chewing.

The leaves of Qingtian Dao, taking a bite, should also have a lot of benefits.

You Chunshan has extremely sincere and reasonable ideas of the world.

It's a pity that there is no benefit except for eating bitter mouths.

If Jiang Shanxue saw this scene, he would probably feel that You Chunshan's brain was indeed very sick.

Daomen Daomen is naturally a cultivation sect that talks about reasoning with the world.

It is naturally ridiculous to eat such an unreasonable thing as a leaf soaring in the daytime.

You Chunshan was there spitting out the leaves in his mouth, but he suddenly remembered something.

In other words, Jiang Shanxue shouldn't realize that he needs to eat, don't see anyone for several days.

The disease of the brain has not yet settled, and the person is starved first.

You Chunshan felt bad and walked back.

But when I returned to the bamboo hut, I was taken aback.

The Qingtian Dao uncle who had been waiting for the three of them at the mountain road had appeared there again.

And I don't know what's going on, I look very bad.

You Chunshan walked over with his sword on his back with some apprehension in his heart, and saluted very cautiously.

"Is there something wrong with Uncle Shi looking for me?"

The Taoist who was standing in front of the audience turned his head, glanced at You Chunshan lightly, and turned his head again.

You Chunshan didn't know where he had provoked this Qingtian Dao uncle, so he stood in it and thought deeply about it.

Could it be because Jiang Shanxue directly pulled himself away?

Or is this bamboo house where Chen Huaifeng lived actually a forbidden place?

Or, in fact, I don't have a brain disease, but some kind of grandfather living in my body?

You Chunshan thought about it for a long time, and was about to ask carefully, when he looked up, he found that the Taoist had left here and was walking away calmly on that path.

You Chunshan scratched his head a little dazedly, not knowing what was going on.

It was a long time before the young man walked into the bamboo hut in confusion.

The bamboo hut is very simple, but there is a low table and some tea-making utensils.

This reminded You Chunshan of the picture of the sword cultivator named Chen Huaifeng telling the young man about drinking tea by the stream.

It seems that this is indeed the place where Chen Huaifeng lived, and You Chunshan was relieved.

After all, such a sword cultivator really doesn't look like a bad person.

It's just that obviously You Chunshan doesn't care about these things now, just rummaging around there.

In the end, I only found some peanuts and tea leaves that had already given birth to insects.

You Chunshan looked at the bag of peanuts melancholy, and then walked to the door of the bamboo house, carrying the futon and sitting there with his cheeks up.

If he had some thoughts of going out for a walk before, but after being startled by that Qingtian Dao uncle, this young man from the East China Sea was also a little afraid to run around.

You Chunshan couldn't stop sighing.

Is he really going to starve to death in Qingtian Dao?

It's just that nothing like this happened.

Jiang Shanxue came here again in the afternoon, and brought a lot of food to You Chunshan, probably bought by this Taoist in the town under the mountain, after all, among those foods, there is a very greasy roast chicken.

You Chunshan sniffed here for an afternoon, full of the smell of tea.

Naturally, there will be no roast chicken.

You Chunshan, who had been hungry for a long time, didn't thank you, sitting at the door while nibbling on chicken legs, looking at Jiang Shanxue and asking, "Have you been to see the master?" ”

Jiang Shanxue shook her head and said, "Not yet, Cheng Lu is still in the middle of the mountain rumors." ”

You Chunshan sighed and said, "Okay then." ”

Perhaps because there was nothing important in the mountains, Jiang Shanxue did not leave, and sat at the door of the bamboo hut with You Chunshan.

Although it is said that the door covers the dusk, there is no plan to stay in the spring.

It's just that it is obvious that such a particularly peaceful and quiet view in the mountains will not have such an exclamation.

The twilight came through the forest and fell on the flat ground in front of the bamboo hut, quietly shining on many fallen leaves.

There is something different about comfort.

You Chunshan sighed and said, "Qingtian Dao is indeed a good place!" ”

Jiang Shanxue just smiled softly and said, "It's just that the wind and rain have gone." ”

For You Chunshan, he can only see the tranquility of the moment.

Bai Fengyu's story has been more than fifty years away from the cultivation world, not to mention the distance between him and the world.

Perhaps the Qingtian Dao of the past days did still have some restless factors.

For example, the nineteen white views.

It's just that with a certain woman on the cliff holding a sword down the cliff, although it was an unintentional move, it also made such a Taoist temple very ruthlessly burn all those white temples, and the old man in the view also returned to the Styx.

Today's Qingtian Dao, in the hands of such a plain skirt woman who lives in a small house by the lake behind the mountain all the year round, is probably very peaceful.

You Chunshan turned his head to look at Jiang Shanxue's expression, raised his hand and patted his shoulder with his fingers, and said very seriously: "The sun is always after the wind and rain, please believe that there is a rainbow." ”

Jiang Shanxue turned her head to look at the oil stains on You Chunshan's fingers, shrank back, and said softly: "Maybe so." ”

You Chunshan looked at Jiang Shanxue, who still seemed to be a little melancholy, and said, "Don't you believe that there is a rainbow?" ”

Jiang Shanxue said softly: "I just don't know, for such a Taoist temple, whether I am a wind and rain or a rainbow." ”

You Chunshan was a little puzzled.

The latter looked up slightly at the woods outside the house, and said slowly: "You should be able to see that the people in the audience actually don't like me very much. ”

You Chunshan thought to himself, how could I see it, but when he thought of the time when Jiang Shanxue and that Qingtian Dao uncle met, the two of them did look at each other silently for a long time.

This young man from the East China Sea suddenly realized that the atmosphere at that time was strange, not because of his own problems?

"Why?"

Jiang Shanxue said calmly: "Maybe for them, I am the illegitimate child who wants to rob the family property, maybe Senior Brother Chen's identity is more reasonable for them." ”

This young Daoist wearing the ancient Qingtian Dao robe didn't wait for You Chunshan to ask anything, and said with great relief: "Speaking of which, after all, the person who asked them to call the Lord Guan is indeed surnamed Bai, not Jiang." And Senior Brother Chen is the person who is personally included in the view. ”

You Chunshan nodded thoughtfully.

It's just that at this time, he suddenly remembered a question, looked at Jiang Shanxue and asked: "By the way, the uncle and ancestor we met before, after you left, suddenly came here, and I don't know what you were looking at, I asked him and he didn't answer, but his face was a little unsightly." I thought I had offended him somewhere. ”

Jiang Shanxue suddenly turned her head to look at You Chunshan, pondered for a while, and said, "Is there a sword mark between his eyebrows?" ”

You Chunshan recalled seriously, shook his head and said, "No." ”

Jiang Shanxue was clear, and said calmly: "That is Uncle Qin Zailai, and the one we saw before was Uncle Qin Chulai." ”

"Not the same person?"

You Chunshan was very surprised.

Jiang Shanxue shook his head.

"It's not the same person."

"That's supposed to be a brother, no wonder they look so alike."

Jiang Shanxue still shook her head and said softly: "It's not a brother." ”

You Chunshan was stunned.

The Taoist lowered his head and said softly, "This is actually the reason why the people in the audience don't want to see me. ”

You Chunshan was a little confused when he heard it.

Jiang Shanxue just said very calmly: "There are many people left behind by the story of the twelfth floor in the view - Qin Chu came, Qin came again, that's it." ”

You Chunshan said in a daze: "So in the end, they are still the same person?" ”

Jiang Shanxue said softly: "Today's me is still different from yesterday's me, how can this be the same person?" ”

You Chunshan naturally began to understand it, and looked blankly at the twilight there, and there was a mountain wind rolling some sparse leaves towards the mountain road.

Jiang Shanxue looked at the young man on the side, but smiled softly, and said, "You don't have to worry, this is something that has nothing to do with you." ”

You Chunshan said with some puzzlement: "Then what did he come to see?" ”

"Just because it has nothing to do with you doesn't mean it has nothing to do with me."

The snow is very calm.

"Uncle Shi has a disciple named Mei Xiyu, who is also a candidate for the next generation of viewers."

You Chunshan always felt that the name Mei Xiyu was a little familiar, and he thought about it for a long time before he said thoughtfully: "Is that the person who was arrested and imprisoned by Huaidu last year because of the southern story?" ”

Jiang Shanxue glanced at You Chunshan.

was arrested by Huaidu and imprisoned, although such a sentence is not very good.

But it is indeed what the world sees, and it is also the word of the world.

Jiang Shanxue said softly: "Yes, but this is naturally not what he did, he just sank into the mud and stained himself with sludge, although in the mud, he will make a mess, but when some stories are over, Qingtian Dao will wash away the stains for him, so that he can walk in the world cleanly - close to the mud, but also close to the lotus." ”

You Chunshan sat there and listened quietly.

Jiang Shanxue smiled softly as she spoke, and said: "Chen Huaifeng, Mei Xiyu, and me, between the three of us, relatively speaking, in fact, I am really a person who has nothing and is empty-handed. ”

"They all have their own confidence, but I don't have anything."

Jiang Shanxue said, but she was also silent for a while, perhaps remembering some of the stories she saw by the Ximei side outside the Guanwai at the beginning.

This young Taoist seemed to finally understand why his brother, whom he hadn't seen for many years, appeared there.

It turned out that he had nothing.

A person who has nothing but pursues something.

Nature can sometimes be targeted by some people.

Jiang Shanxue muttered something there that You Chunshan couldn't understand.

For example, don't look at it, don't think about it. For example, tranquility is the right thing in the world.

You Chunshan listened to it for a long time, but he didn't understand anything, so he said very sincerely: "If a certain Taoist who was chattering with gods and gods didn't say anything wrong, maybe I will be your help in the future?" ”

Jiang Shanxue raised her eyebrows and looked at this young man.

"What Taoist?"

"A Taoist I met when I was in the East China Sea, Uncle Nan said that the Taoist might be a fortune operator."

Jiang Shanxue sat up a little straighter, looked at You Chunshan and said, "What did he say?" ”

"He said that I would become a great sword cultivator in the world."

Jiangshan Xue's expression was solemn.

You Chunshan said with some puzzlement: "Why do you look so serious? ”

Jiang Shanxue said seriously: "If it is really said by the predecessor of the fortune operator, then your fate may indeed be like this." ”

"Doesn't it mean that the requirements are really pragmatic, don't be mysterious?"

Jiang Shanxue said with a smile: "Some people's truth-seeking and pragmatism, in the eyes of people like us, are indeed mysterious and mysterious. It's just that you and I can't touch the essence. ”

You Chunshan nodded thoughtfully.

Jiang Shanxue didn't say these very bizarre things anymore, but raised a sincere and sincere question.

"Although I didn't go to the Lord before, I also managed to help you raise some money."

You Chunshan said excitedly: "How many?" ”

Jiang Shanxue sighed.

"Not a single one."

You Chunshan wilted.

Jiang Shanxue looked at this young man from the East China Sea with a lot of guilt.

When I was in the town, I heard the powerlessness in that sentence, and it was naturally not just Cheng Lu.

"I've also gone to find one of my uncles."

A Taoist who was beaten to a crippled body in the story of Bai Fengyu is naturally self-evident in what position he stands.

This is probably the only reliance of Jiangshan Xue in the Qingtian Dao.

"Uncle Shi was silent for a long time, saying that he wanted me to wait, and then went back to his small courtyard."

Jiang Shanxue said melancholy.

"I knew he was going to find the money. It's a pity that nothing was found in the end, and Uncle Shi was also very barren, barren in shape, and poor in wealth. Probably the only thing that is rich is the desire to return the Qingtian Dao to its original form. ”

You Chunshan sighed and said: "If there is really no way, I will go to Huaidu first, Uncle Nan should also be in Huaidu, although I don't know what he is doing there, he seems to have a very rich junior brother, when the time comes, I will think of a way to see if I can borrow some money from him." ”

Jiang Shanxue shook her head and said, "After all, this is what Qingtian Dao should do. ”

The Taoist stood up as he spoke, stood in the courtyard for a long time, and then looked up at the twilight outside the mountain one day, and said softly: "I'll try again tomorrow, if you really can't borrow money, I'll help you go to the Lord to think of a way." ”

You Chunshan said curiously: "The viewer is very rich? ”

The Taoist shook his head and said, "Qingtian Dao and Huaidu have a close relationship, as long as the contemplator is willing to speak, it won't be a big problem after all." ”

You Chunshan looked at the Taoist very sincerely and said, "Thank you." ”

Jiang Shanxue just smiled and said: "A person in the world is willing to carry a person from the East China Sea all the way to Qingtian Dao, in the final analysis, I Jiangshanxue is not a wolf-hearted person." ”

Such a young Taoist is just a little contradictory and a little entangled sometimes.

Cheng Lu could see it, so he ruthlessly said something in the town.

You Chunshan was very moved.

"When I become a great sword cultivator in the future, I will definitely choose you as the master!"

Jiang Shanxue laughed softly and turned towards the path.

"If you want to influence the decision of a place like Qingtian Dao, it is still very difficult to just be an ordinary great sword cultivator."

Even if it is Xie Chunxue, it is difficult to do.

Unless it's really big.

For example, Kamigawa, such as the Blade.
