Song of the Cave Immortals Chapter 12 The Lakeside Retreat
Moments after the blue-robed man left, Su Mai walked out of his stealth place.
Walking to the edge of the circle, the dark red blood stains were still shocking, and there was a faint smell of fishiness in the air, constantly reminding him of the real and mysterious scene just now.
Bypassing the strange red circle, Su Mai came to the bamboo house, only to see a log on the door, with the word "Yinlu" on it.
The handwriting is rough and clumsy, domineering and exposed, as if it is written with fingers.
The bamboo door was ajar, and it seemed that the mysterious man had entered it before.
Su Mai hesitated for a moment, gently pushed the door, "squeak", the small door opened, and he walked in, only to see that the room was extremely poorly furnished, and facing the door was a bamboo table, with a stoneware teapot on it, two small teacups, and a bamboo bench on each side.
On the left side is a bamboo collapse, and on the right side is a small desk, on which there are several volumes of scriptures, and when you get closer, you can see that it has been covered with a thin layer of dust, as if it has not been inhabited for a long time.
Looking around, on the wall above the desk, a simple portrait of a person attracted Su Mai's attention.
In the painting is a young woman, delicate, pretty and lovely, with a faint smile at the corner of her mouth, dressed in white, holding a red ribbon in her hand, it seems to be coming from the painting, the eyebrows are extremely expressive, especially the smile, which can directly melt ice and snow, making people feel like a spring breeze.
The woman in this painting should be the owner of this house, that is, the junior sister in the mouth of the mysterious man, Su Mai pondered.
is really a fairy man, no wonder this man has been obsessed with it, traveled all over China, searched for magic weapons, and died all his life just to see her.
Su Mai stared at the portrait, and was a little distracted for a while, and his eyes suddenly flashed with the woman in white who he had seen in the valley under the Wangtian Peak of Cuiyun Mountain that day.
After a while, realizing his gaffe, Su Mai shook his head and laughed at himself: "People are immortals with profound Taoism, what am I, if we can see each other again in the future, it will be a great fate."
When he was about to look away from the portrait, Su Mai suddenly noticed that there was a line of small characters in the lower right corner of the painting, but when he looked closely, it was a small poem:
Hundreds of miles of green reeds and jade lu
Spring and Autumn several times happy year
Throw the Buddha 3,000 times
Half of the hook is here.
There is a wild grass at the beginning, but it is the four words "indefinite and three thoughts".
After reading Su Mai, he didn't feel that his thoughts were fluttering, a young fairy couple, on the shore of this fairyland-like green reed lake, facing a lake to appreciate the water, chanting the wind and the moon, singing and dancing.
The man's sword aura is like a mountain, and the long smile is a song, and the woman's ribbons are flying, moving the lotus step lightly, leaving a shadow all over the sky.
What a wonderful picture this is, Su Mai sighed lightly, but the word "Buddha Tuo" behind it is incomprehensible, could it be that the man with this poem is actually a monk?
For his almost ridiculous idea, Su Mai also felt a little incredible, the monk should be in the temple to cultivate, how can he chant the wind and the moon here, get drunk and sing a long song, and say that such a beautiful woman, how can she be with a monk?
Su Mai shook his head, his eyes fell on the four words "indefinite three thoughts" in the inscription, arrogant and uninhibited, in one go, no matter how you look at it, it is also from the hands of a chic and casual man, and the impression of the monks who burn incense and chant scriptures in the morning bell and dusk has nothing to do with it.
After staying in the house for a while, I found that although the bamboo house was old and simple, each table was also fresh and simple, and the few scriptures and the pictures on the wall became more and more transcendent.
At this moment, Su Mai only felt that his heart was as calm as water, and he suddenly forgot the past and the past, and where he was.
I couldn't help but glance back at the woman in the portrait, and left the hut with some reluctance.
Outside, the house is empty and quiet, and there is an unknown cluster of small purple flowers in the corner of the staircase, swaying gently in the breeze, as if telling everything that happened here many years ago.
And the dark red circle was still glaring, and it seemed out of place with everything around it.
The surface of the lake is filled with water vapor, I don't know its depth, standing by the lake, only to feel a cold air rushing to the face.
Su Mai suddenly thought, the water in this lake must be very cold, I don't know if there are any fish in it, if there is, the meat must be very tender.
Thinking about it, but his stomach rumbled out of place, Su Mai swallowed his saliva, frowned slightly, and was thinking about where to find something to eat, when suddenly a "squeak" sound came.
Looking for prestige, he found that in the corner of the wall, less than two feet away from the huge blood circle, an animal with a purple body and a tanuki was curling into a ball, and its mouth kept making strange squeaking sounds, and its appearance was very painful.
When I looked closer, I saw that the belly of this strange animal had a bright golden color.
"Purple marten?"
Looking at the little guy in front of him with bright hair and looking at it with his eyes open, Su Mai suddenly thought that when he first saw this hundred miles of green reeds, Wu You said that a mysterious creature living here was purple all over and had a golden retriever on its belly.
There is no doubt that this strange animal in front of him should be a purple gold mink, but for some reason, the eyes of this little thing are golden.
I heard that its actions are like electricity, and it is very spiritual, and it is rare to see it in ordinary times, how did he come here, and it seems that he is still injured in the situation.
Squatting down, Su Mai gently picked up the purple gold sable and put it in his arms, but found that there were no scars on its body, but its breath was weak, and it seemed that its vitality was exhausted and it was about to run out.
"Could it be Qiankun Ding?"
Feeling the strange appearance of the purple gold sable, Su Mai suddenly remembered the mysterious magic weapon of the purple-robed man before and the terrifying bloody scene.
I vaguely remembered the words of the mysterious man in my ears: "Qiankun Baoding, attract gods and gather spirits, and incarnate all things ......."
It must be because of this Qiankun Ding, listening to the man's meaning, this magic weapon can gather spiritual energy and absorb the original spirit, no wonder it can suck everything on the ground into it in an instant.
This purple gold sable is very spiritual, and may be aware of the danger, but it can't resist the temptation of this treasure ding, although it did not die, but most of its essence was sucked away, so it was so weak.
Thinking of this, Su Mai admired this purple gold sable a little more, it was really not easy to save his life under this Qiankun Ding, no wonder the creatures in this green reed bush gathered, thousands, but Wu You only mentioned it.
Looking at the dying little guy in front of him, Su Mai was also a little at a loss, he didn't know medical skills, he didn't know immortal methods, and he couldn't help if he wanted to save it.
Just when he was distressed, the purple gold sable in his hand suddenly moved, looked up at Su Mai, and then turned his head to look behind the bamboo house.
"You want to go to the back of the house?" Su Mai said in surprise.
The little guy blinked, Su Mai was shocked, and said in his heart, what kind of animal is this, it can listen to human language, and it really has spirituality.
Skirting the corner, Su Mai came to the back of the bamboo house.
There was a bamboo house to cover it before, and I didn't realize it, but now when I came to the back, I found that there was another day......
Different from the cold open space in front of the house, there is a large sea of flowers in front of you, red, yellow, purple and green, blooming brilliantly, not at all like the scene of spring flowers outside.
didn't have time to appreciate it carefully, the purple gold sable in his arms moved again, but this time it was to guide Su Mai into the flowers.
Su Mai walked towards the flowers with some confusion, only to find that there was a path under his feet that stretched out into the flowers, because the flowers were luxuriant, covering the road, and it was difficult to detect it in the distance.
Walking cautiously among the flowers, Su Mai stretched out his hand from time to time to pluck the flower branches in front of him, for fear of disturbing this piece of vitality.
In about a quarter of an hour he came to the end of the sea of flowers, and in front of him was a mound half a man high, also overgrown with flowers and plants, and beyond that there were lush green reeds, which was evidently the end of the path.
Su Mai squatted down, put down the purple gold marten, and looked at the mound, only to see that under the mound, there was a black hole, about the thickness of the bowl, and I didn't know where it led.
However, the entrance to this cave is so small, and only this purple gold mink can enter, Su Mai said secretly.
Just thinking about it, I saw the little guy in his hand suddenly move, the golden light flashed in his eyes, and it seemed that he had recovered a lot of energy, only to see it look up at Su Mai, turn around and drill through the hole.
Su Mai was shocked first, and even if he understood, he dared to feel that this cave was the home of the purple gold sable, no wonder it guided himself here.
I was stunned, thinking that since the purple gold marten had gone home, there should be no danger to my life, and I should also go.
It's just that the end of the world is far away, where is my home?
When he came here, he originally accompanied Wu You to the Iron Sword Gate, but now Wu You is also separated, and his life and death are unknown, but Su Mai suddenly lost his goal.
Standing up straight and turning around, Su Mai looked at the sea of flowers in front of him, and fell into a daze for a while.
Standing in front of the mound, I don't know how long it took, but I heard a sudden "squeak" behind me.
Su Mai Huoran turned around, but found that the purple gold marten that had just entered the cave had gone and returned, and ran out again, but his essence had recovered a lot, and it seemed that the hair on his body was more oily, and his golden eyes were a little more radiant, and it seemed that he was fine.
Su Mai looked at this magical little guy with some surprise, only to see it straighten up, groping under its front paws, taking out two small emerald green fruits the size of peaches, grabbing one and putting it in its mouth and biting it, stretching its right paw forward, as if to hand it to Su Mai.
Su Mai squatted down, with a suspicious look on his face, and asked softly, "Is this for me?"
The little one blinked violently, his right paw waving.
Su Mai stretched out his hand to take it, only to feel that the tentacles were cold, the fruit was all blue, so green that it seemed to be dripping water, it was the Qingling Fruit that Wu You said before, and it was also the favorite of this purple golden mink.
Seeing that this purple gold sable was eating very happily, Su Mai was curious, and he also put this green spirit fruit to his mouth and took a bite, only to feel that the mouth was sweet, and there was a feeling of relish, and he couldn't help but take a few more bites, and after a while, he ate the entire green spirit fruit.
It's also strange to say, after eating this fruit, Su Mai, who was originally a little hungry, felt a sense of solidity at the moment, and his spirit was much better, and he said in his heart, this Qingling fruit is really magical, he has never eaten such a delicious fruit before, and he wants to ask for another one, but he is embarrassed to speak.
Xu understood Su Mai's intentions, and the little guy ate what was in his mouth for a while, and then stretched out his palm to touch his abdomen, but this time he took out a golden fruit.
Su Mai was shocked, remembering that Wu You said that this green spirit fruit is purple for fifty years, and it is gold after a hundred years, and the thing in front of him is the color of gold, which is extremely rare, and it is rumored to have the effect of reviving the dead, but he didn't expect it to be taken out by this purple gold mink.
This time the little guy didn't eat it again, obviously knowing its preciousness, he grabbed it with his right palm, but handed it to Su Mai, as if to give it to him, Su Mai hurriedly shook his head and said: "This fruit is too precious, I can't ask for it."
The purple gold sable squeaked and screamed in its mouth, and its right palm kept waving, looking very anxious, Su Mai saw this helpless, so he stretched out his hand to take it, thinking that this purple gold sable is the best to eat green spirit fruit, since it was given to me, maybe it still has it in the hole.
With such a thought, my heart was relieved, and I put it in my arms with a precious place.
Stretched out his hand and touched the little guy's head, only to feel that the tentacles were silky, and the whole body was purple and gold, but there was no trace of impurities, and the hair flashed a layer of lilac halo in the sun.
The purple gold sable was obviously very docile under Su Mai's touch, and its golden eyes were slightly closed, enjoying it very much.
After a moment, I saw Su Mai lightly open his hand, stood up to himself, sighed and said, "Thank you for the fruit, I'm leaving, I'll come to see you again in the future", turned around and walked away after speaking.
