Living immortals
Shu road is difficult, it is difficult to go to the blue sky, since ancient times, Shu Mountain is a wonderful place for ordinary people. Shu Mountain is towering into the clouds, the mountain itself is extremely steep, the rockfall on the mountain is sharp, there are often hunters, woodcutters or fall down the mountain, and the body is cut by the stones on the mountain. The wonder of Shu Mountain lies in the Sword Sect, the Sword Sect that is entrenched on the top of the mountain all the year round, accompanied by the clouds and mist on the top of the mountain, is full of mystery. In the small town below the mountain, you can occasionally see someone stepping on a flying sword, quickly cutting through the sky. At first, the people of the town thought that the old gods in the mountains knelt down to worship. It's just that after a long time, the people in the town are not surprised by this.
At this time, at the top of Shu Mountain, an old man with white hair sat on a boulder on the top of the mountain, and a snow-white jade sword as warm as jade stood in front of him. The old man opened his wrinkled eyes slightly, and a pair of eyes shot out wisps of golden light, and he looked into the distance, and the morning sun slowly rose in the distance.
The old man was dressed in plain clothes, sitting cross-legged like a pine, and his hands were slowly sketching strange formations. A faint sword light appeared around the old man's body, and the slowly rising sun actually emitted bursts of sword sounds. The old man stood up, lunged, and danced slowly as if he was holding a sword in his empty hand. The sharp sword light continued to spread, but before it reached the snow-white jade sword in front of him, it was absorbed by the jade sword without a trace.
One was dressed in a green shirt, and the green shirt was engraved with a faint golden vein, and when you looked closely, there were as many as seven. The thin square face is seven points similar to the old man; the shining eyes are quietly staring at the old man in front of him, the brows are sometimes stretched, sometimes frowned; the slender and rough body is tightly hidden in the green shirt, and a round jade pendant hangs around the waist, the front is vividly engraved with the carving of Shu Mountain, and the back is carved with a golden sword character.
Chaoyang was completely off the ground, the white-haired old man's hands were slightly closed, and the sword qi around him disappeared without a trace.
"How much do you remember?" the white-haired old man asked lightly as he looked at the man in the distance.
"It's barely five points, and if it's a sword, I'm afraid it's four points at most. The thin man replied after a moment's thought.
"It's already very good, the old gentleman of the Confucian private school sent a message that the child has come down the mountain, and now the mountain gate can be closed. The white-haired old man turned his back to stare at the rising sun in the distance and said.
"Do you really want to close the mountain gate? that kid alone is a little uneasy?" said the thin man hesitantly.
"Aren't you at ease? If Sanniang is here, I'm afraid I'll have to learn about your practice. And if the child is here, I'm afraid that he has already learned seventy percent, so why don't you worry. The old man said lightly.
"What the Ancestor said is, do you want to send some people, just in case?" said the man, still frowning.
"Your Sect Master's robe is still seven stegosaurus, do you know why?" said the white-haired old man.
The robe of the Sword Sect is engraved with a sword dragon, and the tall ones can reach nine, and seven is already the master of the Sword Sect that shocks the side.
The man didn't seem to expect that the old man would mention his cultivation, but after thinking about it carefully, he found that it seemed that his sword cultivation had been stagnant for several years. After thinking about it slightly, the man smiled helplessly: "Maybe it's limited by qualifications." ”
"Cultivation is the first priority, and then qualifications. Since you assumed the position of the sect master of the Sword Sect, your cultivation heart has been trapped by the affairs of the sect, whether you have gained or lost, your heart is lacking, and how can you get closer to your cultivation. Now that the mountain is about to be closed, you might as well put it down. The old man turned slightly and looked at the thin man in front of him.
Hearing this, the thin man's body shook, and a faint wonderful feeling lingered in his heart. When the thin man raised his head again, his body was exuding a sharp sword aura, and he gently raised his hand to take off the jade pendant on his waist, a cloud of sword qi poured in his right hand, and a cloud of sword rain fell from the sky at the top of Shushan, and slowly the sword sect slowly disappeared into the sword rain and disappeared.
In the same morning light, Qingyun, dressed in plain clothes, stood in the garden, his eyes surrounded by purple light, constantly absorbing the vitality of heaven and earth. Exhaled a breath of turbidity, and the purple of his eyes gradually dissipated. It's just that a violent explosion sound seems to erupt in the body, constantly swimming among the meridians around the body.
The Thunder Hidden Technique is really useful, but without the power of thunder, it cannot be cultivated for the time being. Qingyun sighed slightly, and no longer tried the cultivation of Lei Yin Jue.
"It's good to be young, I've been injured so badly, and now I'm recovering in just a few days. ”
The great elder dressed in white walked slowly on the stone steps, dressed in white swaying in the morning breeze.
"What are your plans for the future?" the Great Elder asked again.
"I want to go to Danzong to see, after all, there is still some hope. Young Qingyun said after saluting slightly.
When the Great Elder heard this, his expression was calm, and his withered hand took out a simple animal skin from his arms, handed it to the young man, and said, "You have helped us so much, and you haven't had time to say thank you yet." This is a map to Danzong, so let's give it as a thank you. If you go to Danzong, if you have any difficulties, you can look for Dantong. ”
The young Qingyun took it with both hands, saluted and thanked him, and after reading it carefully, he carefully collected it.
Looking at the unpredictable young man in front of him, he was so calm, the Great Elder's eyes were full of approval, but there was a faint hint of worry.
With the rising sun, the three of Qingyun left Shennong Valley and embarked on a new journey. At noon, the three of them walked into this restaurant, although it is located in a remote town, but the interior decoration is extremely luxurious, and the huge space is covered with golden carved dragon stone patterns.
As soon as he stepped into the restaurant, a clever junior came forward, with a smile on his face, even Yi Feng, who had crossed the city wall with thick skin, couldn't help but have a restrained look. Under the leadership of Xiao Er, the three of them sat down by the window in a corner of the restaurant, ordered a few special dishes, and looked at the people in the restaurant in a daze.
It is strange to say that the small restaurant is actually full, but most of the dishes on the table have not been touched, and the faces of the guests are full of anxiety, but they have never looked at the rich delicacies on the table. There is a screen erected in the corner of the hall of the restaurant, and many people outside the screen are waiting anxiously.
"Xiao Er, your business is very good, but what tricks do you have? As if curious, Yi Feng asked when Xiao Er was serving.
"A few of them aren't locals, we don't have any know-how in this restaurant. If there's a trick, it's the roasted knife wine here, which has a strong taste, but the aftertaste after the entrance attracts many repeat customers. As for the business of the store, it is not as good as the guest said, but these few days are the big days in the village. Xiao Er said proudly while pouring wine for the three of them.
"What's the big day today?" Lingyun asked curiously.
"Do you see the people in the hall, the people behind the screen are the protagonists of this big day, the living immortals. Xiao Er said triumphantly, his face full of pride.
"Living immortals, haven't you seen them, is there really a living immortal in this world?" Yi Feng said slowly after a glass of wine.
"Guest officer, be quiet, don't disturb the living immortals. Xiao Er looked back cautiously and said to Yi Feng seriously.
Yi Feng shrugged his shoulders noncommittally, took a sip of wine from the small shop and said, "This burning knife is really good." ”
Xiao Er looked at Yi Feng with an expression of disbelief, and he was not angry and said calmly: "About five years ago, the sky was cloudless, it was a scorching summer, and the sun was like a furnace, scorching the earth. At this time, a man in a ragged robe, dragging worn cloth shoes, stood at the door and looked at the sky, and said to himself, it is going to rain, hurry up and collect clothes. After saying that, he walked into our hotel, looked at our boss, sat down near the window, ordered a large table of good food, and asked for a few pots of good wine. Our boss was worried that he would not have the money to pay the bill, but the boss was kind-hearted, so he persuaded the man to ask for some food to satisfy his hunger, and gave him some scraps of silver. It's just that the man shook his head and told the boss not to worry that he couldn't pay the bill, just serve the food. ”
"Sounds like a master of eating and drinking. Yi Feng said with emotion when he heard this, seeing that Xiao Er's face was gradually covered with haze, he hurriedly asked Xiao Er to continue.
"Soon, however, a strong wind blew through the sky, and the wind swept the dark clouds, and in a short time, with lightning and thunder, the sky began to rain heavily. The man who looked like a Taoist priest picked up his wine glass and shouted outside, Good rain knows the season, when spring happens, he drank it after speaking. Xiao Er recalled.
"Seems to have some ability. When Yi Feng heard this, his eyes changed slightly, and he said with a faint sigh.
After drinking, the man who looked like a Taoist priest called out to me for pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, wrote down a prescription, and told me to hurry up and grab the medicine, and first use the money on the counter to pay in advance, and then pay it back with interest. At that time, I was also suspicious, and even thought that it was a madman who ran from somewhere, but the man who looked like a Taoist priest said, if I didn't hurry up, I was afraid that the old mother who was bedridden at home would die and return to the West. After all, my parents were involved, so I grabbed the medicine and went home, only to see my mother rolling on the ground in pain, I hurriedly decocted the medicine for my mother to take, and my mother miraculously got better. I used to be unable to get out of bed, but now I can walk in the fields and do some farm work. Xiao Er said seriously, his eyes swept slightly to the screen, his eyes were full of gratitude.
"It's said that he is a man with superb medical skills, where is he considered an immortal?" Yi Feng said lightly when he heard this.
Xiao Er looked at Yi Feng coldly when he heard this, Yi Feng felt Xiao Er's coldness, his whole body stiffened, and he didn't say anything more.
Xiao Er continued: "When I came back, the boss had the prescription in his hand and asked me to hurry up and grab the medicine. It turned out that the pregnant proprietress suddenly had a difficult birth, and Lang Zhong in the town was at a loss. The man in the robe wrote down a prescription again, and the boss took the dead horse as a live horse doctor, and when I grabbed the decoction and gave it to the proprietress, I gave birth to a son smoothly. The boss was grateful to the man in the robe, but the man said that a meal was enough. ”
"Why did that man stay in your shop, and it became a big day in the village. Lingyun asked curiously.
"The Taoist in the Taoist robe wanted to leave, but the people in the village saw the power of the Taoist and asked for something. The man in the Taoist robe sighed slightly, as if he said that he would have to wait here for five years, so he discussed with the boss and stayed. At first, the people in the village came to beg one after another, but the Taoist told them that this was a matter of leaking the secret of heaven, and at the same time said that in the future, they could only agree to three requests on the first day of each month. Since then, the man has lived here for five years, and his prayers have not been fulfilled. The people of the village call the man a living immortal. ”
"It seems that this humane law is profound, and it can indeed be called a living immortal. Qingyun sighed when he heard this.
"The living immortals are not fake, but they are detrimental to the avenue, which is really strange. "A man dressed in a Confucian robe, with a full face and a broad body, a short and delicate knife hanging from his waist, and a folding fan in his hand. Sitting at the table next to Qingyun, he sighed when he heard what Xiao Er said.
"Could it be the Taoist one?" said the man who looked like a Confucian student.
Hearing this, Yi Feng turned to look at the Confucian man and asked, "Who is the Taoist one?"
"The Taoist is a great figure, it is said that the dragon sees the head but does not see the tail, and the whole body is cultivated to reach the heavens and the earth, and he knows it for five hundred years, and he is a powerful person through the ages. However, the heavy invitations of the major sects have never agreed to the characters. The Confucian man looked at Yi Feng and said with a smile, just deliberately selling Guanzi.
"To be able to get Bai Xiaosheng's evaluation, it is really a blessing for Sansheng. Behind the screen, a tall man, but bent over, a Taoist robe that had already been washed and white, a handful of dust in his hands, and the cloth shoes under his feet were tattered, but they were spotless.
When Confucius saw the man in the Taoist robe, he bowed slightly.
