Chapter 32: Peach Blossom Girl

On the Shandong Peninsula, there is a small coastal city, and there is a mountain peak in the small city, called Xianguding. There is a peach forest not far from the top of the fairy girl, where the peach blossom girl lives, and the clouds and the moon are gone.

Yunyue is plump and plainly dressed, looking like an ordinary person's mother-in-law who farms the land. She doesn't like to dress up, so she picks it up casually every day and goes out, but she is particularly good-looking, and often attracts men to peek near the peach forest. She is also well-known within a radius of dozens of miles, all thanks to the good wine she brews, the mellow and delicious peach blossom brew, so that people who have drunk it once want to drink it a second time.

Not far from the peach forest is the residence of the peach blossom lady, several simple red brick houses, one for resting, one for cooking, one for winemaking, and one for selling wine. There were a few rooms with only one bed and nothing else, but they didn't look like they were inhabited. There is also a low ring of low walls that enclose these simple houses.

The windows of the house selling wine were open, and Peach Blossom Lady poked her head out and looked out. It was evening, at this time in the peach forest, the peach blossoms had already withered, and the peaches had already been distributed to the nearby villagers by the peach blossom girl.

Yunyue's rules are very strange, the windows of this house that sells wine are only opened once a year, and of course, the wine and peach blossoms are only sold on this day a year. No, on this year's business day, it was not dark yet, except for a few jars left by himself, the rest of the peach blossom brew had been sold out. Yunyue, who was busy with the things at hand, had nothing to do, so she sat by the window and watched the sunset, preparing to close the window after dark and open it again next year.

Enjoying the sunset, her eyes looked into the distance of the road from time to time, and there was some expectation in her eyes, as if she was waiting for someone to appear.

In the distance, two figures gradually appeared on the road, walking towards this side with their backs to the setting sun. After Yun Yue saw these two people, her eyebrows and eyes smiled, the corners of her mouth curved into an arc, and she laughed. This is exactly who she waits for, and every year on this day, they come to her and drink a few sips of peach blossom brew with her.

The two people who came over, one of them was wearing a Taoist robe, with a delicate face and a slender figure. One person was dressed in tatters, with a bald head on his head, and two chicken legs in his hand, eating as he walked.

It was the wine Taoist and the meat monk.

When the wine priest saw Peach Blossom Lady poking her head out of the window from a distance, he shouted happily: "Why, are you still sitting there? ”

Yun Yue was as happy as a girl, not at all like a woman in her early forties. She replied, "Okay, the guest officer is still staying in the hotel?"

The monk who was chewing the chicken in his mouth, threw away the chicken leg bones and said, "The old rule, stay in the hotel and stay in the hotel." ”

Yun Yue closed the window of the liquor room, walked out of the room and locked the door, went to open the courtyard door, let the two of them enter the courtyard, and then led the two into the house again. The table in the house was full of all kinds of food, chicken, duck and fish, as well as seafood caught from the sea.

When the monk saw it, he sniffed his nose and said with great joy: "Miss Yun, good craftsmanship, not only is the wine good, but the cooking skills are getting better and better year by year." ”

Yun Yue smiled and beckoned the two to sit down.

"You're sure to come, and you're ready early. ”

Yun Yue handed over the chopsticks, "Come, eat quickly." As he spoke, he poured wine into the wine glass on the table.

The Taoist priest did not go to get the chopsticks, but first picked up the wine glass and took a sip of it. After the wine entered his throat, he had a comfortable expression on his face, as if he had tasted the elixir of gyokuro.

The monk who took a piece of fish tail with chopsticks, looked at the Taoist priest's enjoyment, and said, "Give me a whole cup, and I will take a sip." ”

Yun Yue asked, "Don't you don't drink?"

The monk smiled and said, "In order to let this cow's nose drink less, I'm sorry for the Buddha, and I have to drink some too!"

He looked at the fragrant fishtail in his hand, took a bite and said, "I'm sorry for his old man....."

The Taoist priest laughed, patted the monk's shoulder, and said heroically: "Bald donkey, come on, drink." ”

The three of them toasted together, and the atmosphere was very good. Yun Yue was in a good mood, and after drinking, she became interested and proposed, "Shall I sing a song for you?"

The monk asked in disbelief, "Do you still know how to sing?"

"Of course. ”

The Taoist priest shook his head and smiled, and said, "I haven't heard you sing for a long time." ”

"You've got an ear for you today, wait, I'll go get the instrument. ”

The two nodded, looking at Yun Yuegu with interest, the monk did not stop the movements in his hands, and kept sending food to his mouth.

Yun Yue got up and went to get a pipa.

"Two guest officers, what do you want to hear?"

The Taoist priest smiled and said nothing, but the monk muttered, "Whatever." ”

Yun Yue nodded with a smile, sat on the chair, stroked the pipa with both hands, and began to sing:

"Cai Sang Mo tried on spring clothes,

The wind is sunny and the weather is warm and weak,

On the peach blossom branches, the warbler cries and refuses to let people return. ”

At the end of the section, the tune is relaxed and comfortable, and it is very comfortable, which makes people feel comfortable listening to it.

Yun Yue then sang:

"Babbling in a dark brow,

Back to weaving weeping lotus seeds,

The flowers are easy to curle, the heart is difficult to tidy, and the veins are chaotic like silk. ”

The second paragraph was sung from the mouth of the peach blossom girl, faintly sad, and the Taoist priest who listened to the song was also a little unnatural, lowered his head and silently drank a sip of peach blossom brew.

"The red lotus fragrance remnants of the jade in autumn.

Lightly untie Luo Shang and go on the Lanzhou alone.

Who in the clouds sends the brocade book, when the goose word returns, the moon is full in the west building.

The flowers float and the water flows freely.

One lovesickness, two sorrows.

There is no way to eliminate this situation, so I frowned, but I was in my heart. ”

After singing the three sections, Yun Yue was a little low, put down the pipa, and took a sip of wine by herself.

The monk half-tilted his bald head and said, "What is it, the eyebrows are on your mind? It's good, it's good, but I don't understand what it means." ”

Yun Yue smiled lightly: "It's good that you don't understand, anyway, it's not for you to understand." ”

The monk was strange and asked, "Who understands that?" The monk turned his head to look at the Taoist priest, and Yun Yue, who was opposite, turned slightly red and lowered his head.

The atmosphere is a little delicate, the Taoist priest and Yun Yue are silent, only a monk who doesn't know a few big characters is left, look at this, look at that.

"What's wrong with you two? Why don't you speak?"

He was sent to the temple when he was a child, and he faced many precepts and rules every day, plus his own head was not very bright, and he couldn't hear the lovesickness sung in Yunyue's old song, so he naturally didn't know anything about the love of the man and the woman, and he couldn't see that Yunyue had already secretly had feelings for the Taoist.

The Taoist priest didn't know the meaning of Yunyue's old words, but his five-foot body was already a pure heart of the Daomen, and how could he dare to cross the gap when it came to the love of men and women in the world.

Pity this lonely town, the affectionate Peach Blossom Girl, who has a heart of admiration for the Taoist priest, but has never been heard, and is only regarded as a close friend.

The Taoist priest diverted the topic and said, "A few years ago, I met a child in the northwest mountains, and the true qi in his body was very different, very different from us. I heard in the mountains that there was a white tiger in the world, and I thought of the Duanmu clan who once commanded the martial arts. That day in the mountains, I felt a very strong force watching me from afar, and told me to leave as quickly as possible, otherwise I would be seriously injured on the spot. ”

Yun Yue listened, retracted her somewhat hypocritical daughter's affection, and asked: "In today's world, there are still people who can make you feel terrifying? You are ranked first among the eight masters, and your strength has far surpassed that of all masters. ”

The monk ate the fragrant chicken leg in his hand, and said: "No, no, no, the ranking is not before or after, although Niu Bi is ranked first, but when the competition was in the competition, there were too many rules and regulations, and many people were restricted by the rules of the game. ”

"Well, what the monk said makes sense, although the two of us practice martial arts, but the martial arts road built by the Daomen and the Buddhists does not show people by killing, compared with the orphan in the north and the swordsman with a strange personality in the northwest, if life and death face each other, I still have no chance of winning. The Taoist priest nodded and acknowledged the monk's words.

Yun Yue frowned, "That person is just a legend, it can't be true, after all, over the years, I haven't heard of a rookie from the Duanmu clan." ”

"Yes. The monk echoed: "I don't believe that the lord of the 100,000 mountains is the first in the world, the Taoist priest said that it is, and he also believes that the child is the descendant of the big devil." ”

The Taoist priest shook his head and said, "It's better to believe that there is something than to believe that it is not." Besides, although today's rivers and lakes are peaceful on the surface, they have been committed to suppressing people in the rivers and lakes such as us, and the ban on military force has been greatly promoted. Yu Ding's people are even more encircled and suppressed by the people in the rivers and lakes, and they can't take it for their own use and put people to death, if it weren't for the reputation of you and me, some of the means, I'm afraid they would have been secretly disposed of. If at this time, another demon emerges and stirs up a bloody storm in the rivers and lakes that are already walking on thin ice, then Yu Ding must not be allowed to take advantage of the situation and completely cut off the future road of the martial artists. ”

Yun Yue heard this, remembered something, and said with a wry smile: "Back then, when Master took me into martial arts, I was also curious about why martial arts were banned today, but Master still wanted me to practice martial arts, and asked me to find a successor to pass on what I had learned in my life in the future, and pass it on from generation to generation." Master told me that if you want me to pass it on, and when it comes to inheritance, although martial arts are forbidden in the world, martial arts are in one line, and they cannot be broken. She said that if there were no martial arts practitioners, then today's China would be like Europe, broken into pieces, and it would not be the grand occasion of a big country with a vast territory now. ”

The Taoist priest took a sip of peach blossom brew and sighed: "Yes, in the era of cold weapons, if there were no people like us who practiced martial arts, how could the world be unified and how could the people live a good life." ”

The monk smiled, and said sourly while eating: "You can save it, don't boast of being a master who saves the suffering and saves the distress because you have practiced martial arts for a few years, what age is it, if you want me to say, living honestly is the last word." What is the overall situation in the world, the disputes in the rivers and lakes, and the future of martial arts, all go to his straight mother thief, the happiest person is still a little common man!"

After that, the monk felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly whispered again: "Bah, how can a monk say such foul language, sin, sin, Amitabha." ”

Yun Yue looked at the monk and wanted to laugh. She thought for a while and said, "In the morning, Zhang Huaiya came to me to buy wine, and by the way, he threw me an olive branch, wanting me to join Yuding. ”

"Zhang Huaiya?, Yuding thirteen people?" the monk asked.

Yun Yue nodded, looked at the Taoist priest and said, "He also said that he wanted to marry me." ”

The monk slapped the table and laughed: "Haha, it's a good thing, Miss Yun is having great joy." ”

The Taoist priest sat at the table, bowing his head and saying nothing.

Yun Yue said to herself: "I won't marry him, what a big joy, the stinky monk shut up." ”

The monk wondered, not knowing what Bai Yunyue meant.

Yun Yue said: "I want to join Yuding." ”

"What?" the monk thought he had misheard, and asked again, "You want to join Yuding?"

Yun Yue nodded, and some girls said mischievously: "Be an undercover agent." ”

When the Taoist priest heard this, he smiled dumbly, "Well, it's okay." ”

The bald monk said, "Women, there are so many ghost ideas. ”

Yun Yue ignored the monk and asked, "What about you, where are you going next and what are you doing?"

The monk shook his head and said, "I don't care, just wander around with the bull's nose." ”

The Taoist priest stood up, stretched, and said, "After a while, there will be a meeting in Jiangnan, and many important people in the rivers and lakes will be present at that time, and I will go there." ”

"Hmm. Yun Yue also got up and said, "Go ahead, I'll leave here in a few days." ”

"Be careful when you act in Yuding. ”

"Take care, too. ”

Both stood in the room, staring at each other, silent for a long time.

The monk looked at the two of them, and the mouth chewing the food slowly stopped moving. He seemed to see two clusters of light, one bright and one dark, catching each other, and finally merging into one, turning into ten thousand rays of light.
