Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Drunken Mantra
When night falls, the galaxy appears.
Cangyuan Baiyu is placing bamboo slips in the house that he has seen during the day.
"Knock-knock-" There was a knock on the door.
He listened to this strength, as well as the habitual rhythm of this knock on the door, and knew that it was his little apprentice as soon as he guessed: "Enter." ”
Fan Xing entered the house, with his hands behind his back, as if he was hiding something.
He turned and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Fan Xing showed the wine jar behind him and raised the corners of his mouth: "Master, I haven't thanked you properly for the last Song Bai incident!" Shall I give you a drink today? ”
"You can drink?"
"I haven't drunk it, but Master, you can drink it!"
"Sit down."
Fan Xing put the wine jar on the table and took a small teacup as a wine glass: "Master, you can drink it open!" ”
Watching her pour the wine full, Cangyuan Baiyu took another teacup: "Since you thank me, how can there be any reason to watch me drink." ”
He took the wine jar and poured half a glass for Fan Xing: "Taste it." ”
Fan Xing sniffed it first, then took a small sip, and a spicy taste hit his throat: "Heh-it tastes so rushed!" Still, it's quite fragrant. ”
Cangyuan smiled lightly and drank all the wine in the cup.
Seeing that the master had drunk it all, Fan Xing immediately filled him with a quick hand: "Master, is it delicious?" ”
"This is Drunken Flower Brew, given to you by Xingyuan Immortal Monarch?"
"Shaoguang brought it yesterday, it must have been given by his master."
Cangyuan Baiyu smiled without saying a word, and drank another glass of wine.
"Drink more." Fan Xing poured one cup after another to the master, seeing that the wine jar was about to bottom, but he still didn't see him drunk.
She gave up: "Master, are you so good at drinking?" ”
"Xingyuan often invites Benjun to taste wine, maybe he practiced it before."
Fan Xing took another sip of the wine in his cup, and his facial features were twisted together.
Cangyuan Baiyu put down his wine glass and stared at her with a pair of beautiful eyes: "You are a little abnormal today, are you sure there is nothing wrong?" ”
Seeing that Master was so sensitive, she quickly shook her head in denial, and changed the topic by the way: "Master, can I ask you a question?" ”
"Ask."
"You've lived here alone for so long, aren't you alone? The lifespan of mortals is only 100 years old, and many people will find a beautiful woman to stay with for life. And Master, you have lived for more than a thousand years, and you have never thought of finding someone to accompany you? ”
Hearing such a question, Cangyuan Baiyu was a little surprised, but he still truthfully explained the reason: "Benjun concentrates on cultivation every day, and he has affairs to deal with, and he is not alone. And your so-called companionship is not in accordance with the rules. ”
"I know this, the heavenly realm does not allow officials to have affection, why is there such a heavenly rule?"
"Because the immortal family serving in the heavenly realm will ascend to the gods in the future. It is not easy to ascend to God, not only do you have to go through three tribulations, but each of them is a danger of death. Especially when it comes to experiencing lust-related tribulations, it is difficult for many immortals to break through the limit. If you want to avoid it, you need to empty your body and mind, concentrate on cultivation every day, and not be disturbed by other people or things. ”
Cangyuan Baiyu took the wine jar, poured out the last glass, and continued: "For example, a long time ago, there was a god who gave birth to a demon due to desire, and the demon at that time only parasitized the body of immortals, it controlled their minds, occupied their bodies, and released a large amount of demonic energy. And the demonic energy is the source of the demon's strength, and they use it to gain powerful power to cause trouble in the world. In order to stop the overflow of demonic energy and prevent the immortals from being confused by the demons, the Emperor of Heaven ordered the entire immortal clan to abandon their desires, especially not to have love. Later, the inner demon disappeared, and the Heavenly Realm changed this heavenly rule, but the immortal family with an official position in the Heavenly Realm was not allowed to have affection. ”
Fan Xing seems to understand: "Where is the inner demon now?" ”
Cangyuan Baiyu glanced at her, and then glanced away: "The previous god eliminated the inner demon by sacrifice, but unfortunately, the demonic energy in the world is still there, and the inner demon was reborn, and it was also parasitic on others. ”
"I see, how did the immortal family abandon their desires? Master, are you not going to have affection for anyone now? ”
Cangyuan Baiyu slowly flicked the rim of the cup and said unhurriedly: "There are two ways for the immortal family to abandon their desires, and the immortal family with high mana can use spiritual power to suppress it and block its own seven emotions and six desires. The shallow immortal family will go to the Heavenly Forbidden Land Desire Pool, strip off their own desires, and temporarily lock their seven emotions and six desires at the bottom of the pool. ”
"What kind of master is you?"
"The first."
Therefore, there will be no affection for the teacher, and Fan Xing got the answer.
The night was long, and the jar was empty.
After saying goodbye to his master, Fan Xing returned to his room with the empty wine jar.
She only drank half a glass before she felt light and fluttering, and she couldn't walk steadily. In a daze, she washed her face with cold water, but her head was still groggy. Fan Xing yawned, walked to the bed, and collapsed straight onto the bed.
When I opened my eyes again, it was already early in the morning of the second day.
Fan Xing was about to go to Jinxin with a slight headache in her head, this was the first time she had come to the hall of Fairy Yunshu.
Outside the hall are gray tiles and white walls, and there are carvings on the walls. There are embroidered grass on the side of the wall, and two pomegranate trees are planted on the left and right. The vermilion lacquer gate inlaid in the center hangs three big characters of "Tangyu Palace". On the left and right of the door stand two stone statues of pigs, the two night pearls in their mouths, and the complex and exquisite lines carved on them, the whole does not lose the elegant style.
Fan Xing stepped into the courtyard, there were many immortals here, a few were cleaning the courtyard, and some were lined up and walking hurriedly.
At this time, an immortal attendant came to her side and asked, "This fairy, are you here to see the master?" ”
"I'm not here to find Fairy Yunshu, where is the brocade?"
"Fairy, please come with me."
"Good! But I'm not a fairy, and I haven't ascended yet. ”
"Oh! You're also a disciple of the Apprenticeship Society, right? The fairy waiter reacted.
"Exactly."
"Please come with me, girl."
The two of them walked through the verandah, and Fan Xing couldn't help but sigh that this Yunshu Fairy's residence was so wide! There are three courtyards, with a winding verandah connecting the front yard and the small courtyard in the middle, and after exiting the verandah, you can enter the backyard through a round arch. And the place where Jinxin lives is among them.
The fairy attendant led her to the door of a room and bowed and withdrew.
Fan Xing knocked on the door and called out tentatively: "Jinxin? ”
After a while, a crack opened in the door.
Jin Xin didn't come out, her face was a little pale, and the half-hidden door only revealed a third of her face.
"Mortal stars? What are you doing here? Her voice was a little weak.
"Why do you feel weird, sick?" Fan Xing asked rhetorically.
"It's okay, I contracted the wind chill the day before yesterday, so it's good to rest for two days."
"In this way, if you feel uncomfortable, don't hold on, your master is the head of the medical hall, let her show you!"
Jin Xin nodded, and still insisted on talking to Fan Xing outside the Gate: "I won't invite you in, so as not to infect you." ”
"It's nothing. Oh yes, I'm here to tell you the results of the temptation. Fan Xing whispered.
"How?"
"I want to ...... Maybe you're mistaken. According to my master's father, he used spiritual power to suppress desires, and he couldn't give birth to affection. ”
"Then it seems that I guessed wrong, and when I get better, I'll go cook for Shaoguang."
Fan Xing waved his hand: "Shaoguang is just a whim, don't worry about gambling if you are sick like this now." I'll tell him about the situation, and you can rest in peace. ”
"Okay, then please."
"By the way, I have to practice hard these days, and when you get better, you will definitely send a message to me!"
"Okay." Jinxin silently closed the door.
Fan Xing stood at the door, and there was always an indescribable strangeness in his heart.
