Chapter 30 A Hundred Ghosts Walk at Night
In the valley, there are many flowers and trees, and the occasional bird flies by, which is a beautiful scenery in the world, and it is obviously much better to use it as a place of seclusion than to live without a living place, but the clouds and mist in the valley add a little coolness.
From a distance, there are about seven or eight houses, but there are no smoke and fireworks, and there is a feeling of desertion, if it is not for the occasional sound of the piano, I am afraid it is difficult to detect that there are still living people.
Passing through the flowers and meadows to the hinterland of the valley, not far in front of the houses surrounded by arcs, there is a small stone platform built.
There is an old man with a white beard and white hair on the stone platform at this moment, who looks more and more ancient, but he is full of energy, his eyes are bright, and he is talking about the piano and the law with full of energy, and sometimes he demonstrates it himself.
In front of him, there were only a few disciples, and there were only two or three servants, and everyone was sincerely asking for advice and learning.
Seeing the woman arrive with Jiang Li and the three of them, the old man also stopped talking, and let everyone disperse to understand.
There was no need for the woman to speak, Jiang Li stepped forward first and bowed his hand to greet him, "Jiang Li has seen his predecessors, he hasn't seen him for many years, and his predecessors are still full of energy!"
He still understands the truth of "wearing thousands of sycophants", although he is not a polite character, but it is inevitable to be "hypocritical" when interacting with people.
What's more, the person in front of him is one of the few saints in the world, and he respects him from the bottom of his heart.
At the same time, he also understands that at the right time, it is okay to meet the right person and shoot some appropriate sycophants, and maybe there will be some benefits.
In some ways, his temperament is somewhat similar to Shi Fang, perhaps "the one who is close to the ink is black".
Seeing him like this, Qin Sheng also smiled and stroked his beard, obviously not displeased because he disturbed his secluded life.
However, then he said with some emotion: "There is no time in the mountains, when you first entered the Qin Valley, you were full of spirits, but it's a pity that now...... Five years ago, Qing'er also begged me when he came back, but although the old man is respected by the world as a piano saint, he can't do anything about you. ”
As she spoke, she also glanced at the person surnamed Mu Mingqing'er who was standing beside her at the moment.
Mu Qing'er's face was a little unnatural when she heard this, obviously she didn't want Jiang Li to know that she had interceded for him, not to mention, the result of intercession was useless.
"There are seniors who are worried, and there are some things that cannot be forced. Jiang Li said either helplessly or freely.
Then he pointed to the two people next to him, and introduced: "These two are my younger brother and sister who have known me since childhood, and the two have admired the seniors since childhood. ”
"Chu Feng, Tsing Yi, meet the predecessors of the Qin Saint!"
"No need to be polite, since you are here, let's stay for a few days and listen to the piano together. ”
So the two saluted again and thanked them, this is the difference between the "juniors" and the "seniors", I am afraid that a few people will continue to salute Qin Sheng in the future.
After looking at the two of them, Qin Sheng said to Chu Feng: Guan Xiaoyou is a Taoist righteousness, but he is a person in the Taoist sect?"
"Chu Feng meets his predecessors again, his predecessors have good eyesight, and the drunken maniac is the family teacher!"
bluntly saying that the master is a "drunken maniac" is naturally not disrespectful, but even his master himself does not know or forgets his name, so he calls himself a "drunken maniac".
It was also after Chu Feng was brought back to the Jiang family by Jiang Li that the drunken maniac traveled all over the country and passed by the Jiang family, and felt that he was "destined for him", so he personally took in the apprentices and brought him back to the mountain.
And the drunken maniac has never accepted apprentices in his life, and it is said that he picked up a child in his early years and went back, but he just threw it to his junior brother for training.
Now that there is suddenly one more disciple, there must be something extraordinary about it, Qin Sheng looked at Chu Feng more seriously, and said "not bad" with his chin, and then looked at Tsing Yi.
"The maid Tsing Yi is just a little girl who serves Mr. ”
Without bothering to ask, Tsing Yi took the lead in explaining his identity, but he was also innocent and cute, and Qin Sheng smiled and stroked his beard again.
After that, he said to Jiang Li: "Qingu has always been rarely populated, so I didn't come to see an old man like me on this trip, right?"
Obviously, he has heard about the young man's love affairs, let alone her precious disciples.
Jiang Li, on the other hand, was a little embarrassed by the question, and subconsciously glanced at Mu Qing'er, whose face was also a little unnatural at the moment.
Then he said duplicitously: "The younger generation knows that the predecessors not only entered the holy path with their piano skills, but also had exquisite chess skills, which are rare in the world. ”
Figuring out people's hearts is what he is good at, although he has only seen it once, but Qin Sheng, a hidden master, naturally does not care about ordinary treasures, but fortunately, he knows how to do what he does and what he likes.
At this moment, the two people who accompanied him suddenly understood, it turned out that they were afraid that they would not be treated well, and they didn't want to say what they meant, so they actually found an excuse to "offer treasures" in advance.
No wonder they still carry such a heavy thing when they go far away, and the two of them once again found that this person is deep enough.
Especially Tsing Yi, she knows how Jiang Li "tricked" the third master into taking the initiative to ask for a gambling game, and even deceived others to put forward the "bet" herself.
Of course, the third master may also be a little deliberate, but she is still distressed in her heart, baby, it's better to keep it for herself.
Qin Sheng asked, "I heard that you are also good at this, why did you give it to me?"
Although he likes to collect some famous guqin chess, he can't accept it so simply and directly, and he still has to use the excuse to "push" it.
"In front of my seniors, I didn't dare to claim to be good at it, and I was about to ask my seniors for advice or two. Jiang Li is also rarely modest.
The reason is extremely appropriate, since it is a door-to-door consultation, Qin Sheng did not continue to put on the shelf of his predecessors, but just bowed his head and said: "Well, just live in the valley for some time, and listening to the sound of the piano every day may help your body." ”
No matter how good things are, they are all things outside the body for the monks, and what is more important than their own cultivation.
The old man obviously also understands the principle of "repaying Qiong Yao with a peach peach", since he received the gift, he will return you a bigger one,
Although Jiang Li doesn't understand the rhythm, no matter whether it is good for him or not, he will naturally not refuse to hear Qin Sheng playing it himself.
So, after several thanks, the three of them settled in the valley.
......
The next day, in the Kotoya Valley
In an ordinary room, Jiang Li was playing chess with Qin Shengyi, and since he said that he was here to ask for advice, he naturally had to pretend.
What's more, both of them are extremely good at it, and the chessboard is already full of chess pieces at the moment, but it is also indistinguishable from victory or defeat.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, it seemed as if something was coming from outside the valley, causing Qin Sheng to look up and frown, and let out a sound of doubt.
Jiang Li naturally noticed it, and when he looked up, he saw a black streamer coming straight towards him.
When I got closer, I realized that this thing turned out to be the messenger "Black Feather" that had appeared before.
This is a special emergency contact between him and someone, and it is a special method to make a rare spirit crow transmit the message by burning its own essence and blood.
It is second only to the messengers of the saints, and it is no less detectable.
Even if a master intercepts it, what he gets will only be a piece of nothingness, which was granted to him by the "ghost doctor" back then.
Now that he saw this thing again, he couldn't help frowning, could it be that the other party made a big move again?
took it in his hand, and a line of small words automatically appeared: In the near future, a hundred ghosts will come out together, attacking the earthquake and the wind.
In less than ten words, Jiang Li's face changed greatly, and even with horror, he instantly thought of the two countries of earthquake and gale, and became the target of the other party.
I don't know exactly when it happened, but with the way the message was sent and the way the group behaved, I am afraid it would happen soon.
"A hundred ghosts come out, a hundred ghosts come out together......" he said with words in his mouth, and he was quickly thinking about how to solve the problem.
Although he was left aside, according to his reaction, he could guess that something big should have happened, Qin Sheng didn't blame, but just asked, "Why is Xiaoyou so alarmed?"
"Senior, the incident happened suddenly and the situation is urgent, forgive the juniors for being rude, and retire first!" The letter made Jiang Li a little confused, and he had to make some arrangements to deal with it immediately.
There are some things that he is inconvenient for others to know, so as not to expose the people concerned and thus endanger his life, but fortunately, he knows that Qin Sheng is not a stingy person, so he left quickly after speaking.
Looking at his departing figure, Qin Sheng shook his head and sighed alone, thinking that he also felt that he didn't care much about the folk customs, and I was afraid that there would be another big chaos.
