Chapter 91: Don't Give Up (9)
After a while, several people came to the house without alarming others.
The senior brother went to arrange for Ye Yunsheng to pick up the wind and wash the dust, leaving Xuan Zhenzi to accompany him.
The disciple of the head of the Shangqing faction, Guanyun Dao, was given the "Most Holy Sword Technique" that only the Heavenly Master could learn, and Ye Yunsheng, who was newly given the Dao name Tianxingzi, quietly returned to the place where he once lived like a deep sea still stream.
He lived alone in a small room with a different bed.
"In the second year after you left, you lived with the little disciple of Gong Lianzi's uncle. Two years ago, this little junior brother had a serious illness and could not be cured. Last year, Gong Lianzi couldn't resist everyone's persuasion and accepted the closed disciple, who was the Taoist boy who was guarding outside the Beidou Hall just now. ”
Master Gong Lianzi devoted himself to studying the scriptures, and in his memory, his disciples were sparsely educated.
I hope that the little junior brother who dozed off can pass on the Taoism of Master Gong Lianzi.
Ye Yunsheng thought for a moment, and said to Ah Yu: "Go to the bath with your sixth uncle and change your clothes." Then we can taste the delicacies of the mountains. ”
Hearing that there was something delicious, Ah Yu's eyes lit up. Then, she showed a hesitant look and leaned over to Ye Yunsheng's side, very close.
"Daddy, she's obviously a girl, why do you call Uncle Shi?"
Ye Yunsheng and Xuan Zhenzi couldn't help laughing.
Unless there is a major fasting and Jiao, the Taoist priest needs to bathe and change clothes, clean the heart and body, and prepare buckets of hot water in the house. Otherwise, basically the male Taoist priests go to the next waterhole. Walking down the pond water, the water flow is slow, there is stillness in the movement, and it is deeply loved by the cultivators.
Ye Yunsheng returned to the master smoothly, met the master, his worries were slightly reduced, and he immediately asked Ah Yu to follow the sixth senior sister to take a bath, and he performed light skills all the way to the edge of the waterhole.
The yellow orioles chirp all around, and the fragrance of wildflowers is light and faint, secretly fragrant, with a sweet taste.
The waterhole has not changed much from the art of learning in the mountains when I was young, and the water level is still the same, and you can still see small fish swimming underwater.
A few fallen bamboo leaves float on it, and the water is not cold, although there is still snow around the waterhole.
The Taoist priest is lazy, and the snow in the view is cleared, but it doesn't matter here.
But it is just right, bathing in the snow is closer to nature.
Ye Yunsheng was in the dust all the way, took off his clothes, jumped into the water, and felt happy in his heart.
In the Guanzhong house, Ah Yu is sitting in a steaming bucket, letting Xuan Zhenzi untie her braids.
"Since ancient times, even women have been called uncles or uncles. I remember when I was a child, there was a monk on Mount Emei who came to Guanzhong to study the scriptures with the head of the master, this master was a woman, about fifty years old, the master asked me to call the master, and I also asked you a question. ”
Ah Yu put his palm in the water, swam like a fish, and said, "Then what did your master say?"
"It's been like this since ancient times, how do I know?" said Sadako.
Ah Yu also laughed out loud and said, "It turns out that Uncle Shi doesn't know either!"
Xuan Zhenzi tested the temperature of the water and poured some hot water into it.
The water vapor was permeated, her face was slightly ruddy, her head was tied with a bun, pinned with a mahogany plum hairpin, and the hair on her forehead was also stained with water vapor and slightly wet.
She is no longer young, but her eyebrows and eyes still have the immaturity and weakness of her youth.
"Ah Yu, your father, Ye Yunsheng must be very good to you. ”
"Yes. ”
Conversations between adults and children have never been to the point.
She didn't know much about the child, so she continued to talk to herself, "When I was a child, adults didn't treat me very well. ”
"Do they beat you? Mommy sometimes beats me!"
"They didn't beat me, but I remember that I didn't eat well or dress well, like a child begging at the entrance of the village. ”
"Ah, did they give themselves something delicious?"
"No, there is nothing delicious at home, they are all pickled vegetables, and I don't even know the taste of meat. I have two older brothers, and the food at home is left to the two elder brothers. ”
"Why don't you give it to you?"
"Because I'm a girl. There was no sadness in her eyes, and she calmly, as if she was telling what had happened to others.
"When a boy grows up, he has the strength and ability, and he can marry a wife and have children, and pass on the lineage. You still don't understand, your father brought you back, which means that he loves you very much. ”
"Boys don't have the ability to do it, Zhao Yu is not as good as me when he practices swords!"
Xuan Zhenzi smiled bitterly, but she didn't know how to explain it to Ah Yu.
Ah Yu instead remembered the reason and asked, "But, what does it have to do with how to call Uncle Shi?"
Xuan Zhenzi said: "I just think, and it's just my thoughts." Probably women are always of little use, in order to look some in front of the younger generations, so since ancient times, people have called them uncles or uncles, regardless of men and women. ”
Ah Yu didn't understand, his thoughts turned around, and he said: "Later, Zhao Yu will accept an apprentice, and I will also be an uncle." ”
Xuan Zhenzi was silent for a while, changed the hot water twice, Ah Yu got impatient, stood up in the bucket, and shouted, "Okay, I'm clean!"
She wiped the water from Ah Yu's head with her own dry washing cloth, and asked softly: "Your father, in the past, with your mother, would the two quarrel?"
Ah Yu thought for a while and said, "I didn't have much of a quarrel." ”
Xuan Zhenzi's cheeks were even more red, so hot that sweat was dripping from her forehead, so she wiped Ah Yu's body and watched her slowly put on the clean clothes she had prepared before.
This is a Taoist uniform for Taoist children, black and white, long placket and shoes, the woman belongs to the yin, Xuan Zhenzi prepared a white jade belt for Ah Yu, tied the waist, and then hung a white tassel on the right waist.
The tassel is also used as a tassel or step shake, and this white silk spike also has a yin and yang fish attached to the belt, which is very exquisite.
Dressed properly, Xuan Zhenzi heard the fire dragon outside the house calling: "Sixth Senior Sister!"
She pushed the door out, "Fourth Senior Brother, what are you looking for me?"
Seeing that Ah Yu in Taoist clothes in the house was staring at him, Huo Longzi stepped forward to Xuan Zhenzi's side and closed the door, and said softly: "Ye Yunsheng is coming back this time, and he will leave soon, he is not a person who concentrates on cultivation after all. ”
Xuan Zhenzi's face retreated, and he said, "Senior brother, don't say any more. After so many years, I still fight with the fifth senior brother, why can't I get along well?"
Huo Longzi said: "I am like fire and water with him, I can't get together, I don't care, just ignore him." It's just you ......"
Xuan Zhenzi shook her head and said, "Senior brother, don't say it again. ”
"Well, if you don't want to hear it, I'll stop talking. I'm going down the mountain to do errands, and I'm going to say goodbye to you, I'm not on the mountain, and the master and his old man will be left to you to take care of. Xuan Zhenzi responded and watched him slowly walk away.
In the waterhole in the mountain, Ye Yunsheng didn't even bring a washing cloth, walked ashore, and with a shock of internal strength, the water on his body suddenly turned into water droplets and scattered.
He used his internal breath as yang energy again, his true qi was like fire, scorching and wet, and he looked down and saw Ye Yunsheng in the water.
He looked at Ye Yunsheng, and Ye Yunsheng was also looking at him.
"Hi, long time no see. ”
The road is simple, see yourself, see the world.
He didn't change his uniform, he was still dressed in the coarse linen clothes he used to be, and he was dressed as a noodle seller.
It's not that he doesn't change his clothes, it's just that he has a dress, in the cellar at home, and has been waiting for him for seven years.
