Xiaohong was still bouncing at the front, turning her head and greeting Chen Mingye twice from time to time, happily as if she was on an autumn trip.

Chen Mingye looked at her desireless appearance, and for a while, his eyes couldn't help but be filled with a touch of tenderness.

Funiu Mountain itself is not a very steep mountain, so the road to the top of the mountain is not too far.

When the female Taoist led the group to the front of the Taoist temple, the crowd on the top of the mountain that had not dispersed was still a lively scene.

The incense of Jingyueguan is quite prosperous, in addition to the prestige of the Yuexia Fairy back then, I am afraid it is also inseparable from the conscientious and pioneering of this group of disciples.

Chen Mingye glanced at the past, and at the end of the long stairs paved by layers, a majestic view came into view. The whole building complex is tall and ingenious, except for the first view of the universe, there is a palace list afterwards, sitting in the north and facing south, the momentum is quite magnificent. Arranged neatly, the main halls are located on the central axis, including the mountain gate, the main hall, the branch hall and other buildings are all sitting on the side, with the hall, the corridor is arranged on both sides of the central axis.

"Dao Chief, the incense in your place is really prosperous. Chen Mingye stood at the foot of the long steps, looked around and sighed a little.

"Jingyue Temple is one of the few Taoist temples in Yuzhou, and with the reputation of the master back then, this has the popularity that is constantly accumulating today. The female Taoist said softly, without any pride in her voice, but a faint sense of loss.

"The Taoist is too modest," Chen Mingye said lightly as he looked at the still noisy crowd around him, "They are willing to come now because you are doing good things and can do practical things, so they can gather people's hearts." ”

The female Dao smiled slightly and didn't say much.

A person passing by glanced at them, and his eyes suddenly focused on the female Taoist priest.

"You're the Flowing Moon Daoist, right?" The person who spoke was a hunchbacked old man who was close to his ears, and after seeing the female Taoist, his expression seemed to be extremely excited.

"Who are you?" The female Taoist priest was slightly stunned, obviously not having much impression of the person in front of her.

"You don't remember me," the old man was a little anxious, gesturing as he spoke, "Last year, when my precious grandson was sick, my wife and I took him to Guanli to burn incense, and it was you who passed by and helped to take the medicine." My grandson went back to drink for half a month, and our family was so happy, and then we came to watch and burn incense every day, just hoping to see you again. ”

The female Taoist looked at the old man in front of her and smiled: "Thank you for the old man's kindness, you can come to Jingyue Guan is your trust in us, and Liuyue also wishes the old man good health." ”

"Okay," said the old man, who was very excited, "but it's a pity that my old woman didn't come today, and I'll go back and say that I'll give her a decision, and I'll be able to make her die of annoyance." ”

The female Taoist priest smiled slightly: "The old man is not in a hurry, Jingyueguan welcomes you at any time." ”

"Good!" the old man nodded happily.

Chen Mingye watched thoughtfully, and glanced at the female Taoist priest again.

The old man looked at the female Dao, and suddenly asked again, "Daoist Liuyue, can I still see you here in the future?"

The female Dao thought for a moment and nodded: "If you have anything, you can tell the disciples on duty, if it's inconvenient, just let them call me." ”

"Thank you, thank you, thank you, you're such a good person!" the old man thanked again and again, and went down the mountain with a smile on his face.

Chen Mingye saw it clearly, and suddenly vaguely understood the reason why Jingyue watched the prosperity of incense.

He looked at the female Dao and suddenly spoke, "Liuyue Dao Chief?"

"What's wrong?" the female Taoist subconsciously turned around and looked.

"Aren't all of your Silent Moon Views all based on the moon?" Chen Mingye said with a smile.

Liuyue glanced at him inexplicably: "This is when the master obtained the Dao number when he was introduced, is there anything wrong?"

"No, no, absolutely not. Chen Mingye smiled and looked at the old man beside him.

The old man was still slightly distracted, and he didn't pay attention to Chen Mingye's meaning at all.

Chen Mingye shrugged his shoulders, stretched out his hand to take the horse aside, and found a secluded place to write and hold the reins.

The disciples on duty in Jingyue Guan were two half-grown young men dressed in light cyan Taoist robes, Chen Mingye saw that the two of them were not far away, so he asked them to help watch it, and the two little Taoist priests glanced at the flowing moon over there, and agreed in one bite.

Chen Mingye walked back and smiled at Liuyue and said, "The identity of the Taoist seems to be quite noble in the view." ”

Liuyue shook her head: "They are all cultivators of the same sect, how can there be any noble words, but I am older and cultivated earlier, so I will not be superior because of this." ”

Xiaohong nodded vigorously, as if she agreed with the statement of the Flowing Moon Dao Chief.

Chen Mingye looked at her chicken-like pecking rice, and reached over to be a chestnut: "You are embarrassed to nod, and you use your identity as a senior sister to oppress me all day long." ”

Xiaohong was stunned, and then looked at him with an aggrieved face: "When I go back, I will tell the master that you bullied me." ”

Liuyue was a little distressed when she saw this, reached out and hugged Xiaohong, and glared at Chen Mingye gently: "How old is it, why are you still worried about children." ”

Chen Mingye laughed: "Xiaohong is so cute, naturally she has to bully more." ”

Liuyue glared at him fiercely, didn't bother to say anything more to him, opened her mouth and simply closed her mouth again, and led Xiaohong up the steps.

Chen Mingye followed leisurely, and the old man walked at the back, silently looking at the majestic Jingyue Guan in front of him, his eyes flashing with inexplicable brilliance.

The main gate of Jingyue Temple was full of people, and the crowd who had originally gone down the mountain in a hurry because of the changes in the world saw that there was not the slightest danger at this moment, and they gathered towards the temple on the top of the mountain.

Chen Mingye listened to a few words casually, and actually heard something such as "the change of wind and rain is the silent moon watching the real person soar", "the heavenly immortals descend to the earth to trigger visions", "the moonlight fairy returns to the world" and other absurd words, and he couldn't help but want to laugh.

"A few people, they are guests from afar, do you want to burn incense in the temple to make your heart work?"

"You let us go to your temple to burn incense?" Chen Mingye said playfully at the corner of his mouth.

"Although Jingyueguan is not a scenic spot in the world, it is also quite effective in the realm of Yuzhou, so you may wish to give it a try. Liuyue saw the doubt in Chen Mingye's eyes and chuckled.

Chen Mingye followed her eyes and landed in front of a copper furnace in front of the view, with exquisite fine lines, engraved with various colors of gods flying and handsome, and wisps of incense and fire drifted from it, filling the entire front of the view.

"That's it, some wishes can't be made casually, we Xiaohong'er may be able to try. Chen Mingye smiled and turned his head to look at the little dot beside him.

Xiaohong crossed her hands on her hips unconvinced: "Does the little junior brother look down on Xiaohong's wish? Xiaohong's wish is very big!"

Chen Mingye inquired with interest: "What kind of wish is that?"

"Hmph, it won't work if you say it," Xiaohong turned her head, not looking at him at all.

"Stingy," Chen Mingye joked with a smile.

"It's not a joke. Xiaohong glared back unconvinced, her little face flushed slightly.

"Then you go. Chen Mingye stretched out his hand and pointed to the incense burner not far away.

Xiaohong shook her head seriously: "No, Qing Xuan has a thought, and he can't move to another place." ”

The old man seemed to be quite surprised when he heard this, glanced at the little girl, and walked over slowly.

"Old man?" Xiaohong looked at the old man a little strangely.

"Reach out to me. The old man said to Xiaohong.

Xiaohong hesitated slightly, but cautiously handed her little hand to the old man opposite.

The old man took Xiaohong's hand, but he pointed two fingers at Xiaohong's wrist, closed his eyes and felt it carefully.

Chen Mingye was puzzled in his heart, but it was difficult to interrupt at the moment, so he had to wait silently.

Liuyue on the side also didn't have the slightest impatient look, just walked to the side by herself, took a stick of incense, and respectfully walked to the front of the incense burner and saluted, but she lit the incense and inserted it into the furnace.

The old man's movements didn't last long, he just pulled Xiaohong's wrist slightly and sensed it for a moment, and then sent the little girl's hand away.

Xiaohong raised her head and looked at the old man in front of her with a slight blankness: "Grandpa, what's wrong with my body?"

The old man was silent slightly, but then chuckled: "Okay, nutritious and healthy, you will definitely grow taller in the future." ”

Xiaohong will be suspicious: "Really?"

"Of course it's true. The old man looked determined.

"yes. Xiaohong waved her little fist happily, and jumped back to Liuyue.

Chen Mingye looked at the old man with a cautious face, he didn't believe the excuse that was obviously said casually by the old man: "Senior, do you feel something?"

"," the old man glanced at him, "are you smart? ”

Chen Mingye laughed, what does he want to be cute for a big man.

Over there, Liuyue had already finished the incense, and beckoned to this side: "Both, let's take a few more steps with me." ”

"The Taoist leader leads the way. Chen Mingye made a gesture of please.

Liuyue nodded and continued to walk forward, Xiaohong followed by her, Chen Mingye and the old man followed one after another.

Liuyue obviously had no intention of taking them into the Guanzhong, but picked a rather secluded road, bypassing the crowd far away, and walking towards the depths of the Guanhou forest.

The old man carefully looked at the palace along the way, and there was a faint sigh in his eyes.

Chen Mingye looked at the paths along the way, paying attention to the undercurrent aura along the way, and his expression was not relaxed. As far as the aura he was currently perceiving, the Silent Moon Meditation was not simple. A small view in a corner of the place, with this incense and this character, it can be seen that the person who created the view many years ago Yuexia Fairy is such a romantic character.

As he walked like this, he looked up and noticed that the Flowing Moon Daoist who was leading the way in front of him had stopped.

He looked up with a slight doubt, but saw that the place where Liuyue took them to talk was not the depths of the temple and the place where the treasure was hidden, but an open woodland, and in front of Liuyue......

Seeing this, Chen Mingye's pupils suddenly constricted, and in front of the Flowing Moon Dao man, there was a low mound.

The old man who saw this scene also stopped there abruptly.

Liuyue turned around and sighed slightly: "Senior, whether you are the person the master is waiting for or not, I only hope to be able to bring you to fulfill one of the master's wishes, after all, she has been waiting for that person all her life." ”

As she said this, she stretched out her hand and pointed to a green pine and cypress on the side: "This tree was planted by the master a few years ago, and she said with a smile at that time that someone told her that when she planted a tree with the seeds he sent, he would come back." ”

The old man was stunned for a moment.

"The master didn't see the seed germinate until he died. Liuyue said softly, two lines of tears slowly fell from her eyes, "She just said that if you can't see it when you are alive, then continue to wait after death." ”

"Her last words made us bury her next to the original seed," Liuyue said, a bright light flashed in her hazy teary eyes, "I didn't expect that in the first year after the master's death, that seed really grew a green shoot, and at that time we were all very happy, almost everyone gathered around the little bud, looked at the bud seriously, and hoped that a miracle would happen, and we wondered if the legendary sword fairy would come back one day, and bring our master back from the sky." ”

"It's just that the sword immortal didn't come back, and the master didn't appear again. We wondered again if we were going to wait for the buds to grow up and really grow into a tree, and the sword fairy would come back. ”

"This is many, many years, year after year, the little sprouts have grown from small seedlings, to small trees with a height of one person, to more and more tall trees, and even big trees that can shelter us from the wind and rain, the sword immortal we have been waiting for for many years has not returned. ”

"We sometimes wonder if the master has been waiting with us all along, and we think that the master will be very lonely and disappointed if he doesn't see that person and is alone over there. ”

Liuyue chuckled, with tears in her eyes, and turned to look at the down-and-out old man standing behind her: "Senior, you should be reluctant to disappoint the master." ”

The old man looked at the low grave pile, looked at the stone tablet in front of the tomb, looked at the few inscriptions engraved on the tomb, and slowly raised his head.

Overhead, the shade of a tree fell gently, as gentle as a lover's hand.

A small seedling that only sprouted the year she died is now so big.

The old man slowly walked one step, and then another, one step at a time, so slowly, and so firmly.

"Jing'er, long time no see. He stood in front of the grave, looking at the low stone monument, and spoke softly in a hoarse voice.

A breeze blew, the trees shook, and the rustling blades above his head echoed in the wind, as if in response to him.

"I've kept you waiting," he sighed softly and said the next sentence, "Li Yuebai is back, your White Sword Immortal is back." ”

It's just a whisper, but it echoes with the sound of the wind among the pine and cypress trees, and then spreads thousands of miles away with the sound of the wind, as if it has spread to the distance of the sky, as if it has spread to the distance of the rivers and lakes, as if it has been spread to the nine heavens, as if it has been transmitted to the underworld.

The nine heavens and ten earths know it, and she should know it too.

The old man smiled lightly.

He Li Yuebai is back.
