Chapter 15 Silu Pavilion
At dusk, Lu Hualai told Du Lanzhen that the courtyard had been built, and Wen Hailan made an appointment with her to meet every morning and let the professor go. It was the first time that Du Lan had her own yard when she was so old, even if it was only temporary, it still made her excited enough, so she followed behind Lu Hua with some anticipation.
"Senior Sister Du, this is the newly built courtyard. Lu Hua pointed to the courtyard at the foot of the mountain, "Go in and have a look?"
"Good. Duran replied immediately.
"Since Senior Sister has just started, I must have never lived alone? I took it upon myself to find two miscellaneous disciples, if Senior Sister has any needs, I can tell them, as long as I allow them to practice in this courtyard, and give them ten spirit stones in a month. If it is not agreeable, it can also be replaced, and most of the disciples in the sect are like this. Lu Hua diligently pushed the door open for her.
Duran really didn't agree immediately, "I heard that I have a case?"
"That's right, Senior Sister is Yuanying's personal inheritance, there will be two hundred spirit stones per month during the Qi refining period, and the pill formations required for cultivating immortals are reimbursed by the sect, if Senior Sister wants to learn auxiliary learning, she can reimburse the materials of two hundred spirit stones every month. β
"So be it. Du Lanzhen nodded, if so, she should still be able to afford to hire a miscellaneous disciple.
"Hello Senior Sister Du, my name is Di Xuan. Seeing the two of them enter the courtyard, the two people standing in the courtyard looked over, and a dark-skinned boy introduced himself.
"Senior Sister Du, my name is Xin Anyi. "The other is a little girl, soft-spoken, both of them look like they are only thirteen or fourteen years old, and they are both at the third level of qi refining.
"Hello, I'm going to trouble you two in the future. Du Lan really hasn't hired anyone at all, how do you know what to do, but I'm afraid that I will be underestimated, so I subconsciously raised my head and straightened my chest, "I don't have any spirit stones in my hand now, wait until the deacon hall sends the order, and I will send it to you, and it will be done as soon as it is finished." She hasn't noticed that when she doesn't have a score in her heart, she will look very strong and confident, and her tone is unquestionable, which is very convincing.
Although the courtyard was built in only a few hours, the quality was not bad at all, Du Lanzhen followed Lu Hua around the courtyard, only felt that the courtyard was deep, delicate and beautiful, and a little extravagant, "The person who built it is very ingenious." β
"They're all used to this, they're all out of the same mold, and the details are a little different. Lu Hua just laughed when he heard it, "Otherwise, just the design, these few hours will not be enough." β
"Yes. Duran was really taught, so he followed Lu Hua up the stairs and climbed to the terrace she requested, and when she looked at it, her vision was wide, and there was sea water far and near, rippling blue waves, shining golden light in the dusk, slowly swinging away, and far away.
Du Lanzhen raised her head, and the glow of the sky shone on her heart, dissolving all doubts and irritability, leaving only full of joy. She suddenly thought of Uncle Jiang, Du Huiyao, and her mother Bai after three years of separation, she and they were probably not in the same world, right? The more people move forward, the more people they will meet, and the more friends they will be? In the end, will there be anyone by her side? Now that she has met Senior Sister Wen, will she have to say goodbye to her one day?
"Where is that?" she asked, suddenly pointing to a small black dot in the distance, barely visible.
"That's Luxian Mountain, the scenery is beautiful, but it doesn't occupy a large area, it's about the same size as the mountain on our Yizhong Island, and no one has another cave there, the scenery is unique, if the senior sister is free, you can go there to see." Lu Hua followed what she pointed to and looked at the past.
"That's it. Duran nodded when he heard this.
"Speaking of this Luxian Mountain, there is another legend. Lu Hua thought about her little girl, I was afraid that I liked it, so I told her, "This Luxian Mountain was originally a green forest, there were immortals to go to the banquet, passing by, in the forest met a beautiful girl, although she is still young, the body is not enough, which is beautiful, it is difficult to explain, ask her whose daughter she is, who is her surname, only answer her surname Lu, and don't speak again." The immortal was poured by her beauty, and agreed to see her when she returned, who knew that this banquet was met by the fairy fairy who was unique, and she was fascinated and couldn't think of returning, until she woke up from a dream, Fang Jue felt that her own heart really fell on the girl surnamed Lu, and hurried back here, but only to see a small hill, stunned, and searched everywhere, only to know that the girl surnamed Lu was originally a deer in the forest, and after meeting the immortals, she couldn't wait, and it happened that the demons were rampant, and the fire was burning in the forest, so she gave up her life to stop the fire, and she also cultivated to exhaustion, turned into a hill, and guarded this land forever, so it was named Luxian Mountainγ β
"That's what everyone has to do. Du Lan really listened and commented, "The immortals admire Fangzi and accompany each other day and night, which can be regarded as getting what they want, and the deer girl abandons her children's personal feelings, follows the morality in her heart, and sacrifices her life for righteousness, which is not in vain." β
Lu Hua didn't expect her to be so young, but the evaluation she gave was so cold, she was stunned for a moment, and then laughed again, "If the girl is not willing to cultivate for her life, won't she be able to live forever and have lovers together?"
"If you don't even want to contribute to your hometown, you will always be ashamed, how can you say it?
"There are only a few people who can sacrifice their lives for righteousness, and my generation of mortals is really unattainable, so I can only do it. Lu Hua was silent for a moment.
"It is precisely because we are inferior to the sages that we should take the sages as models, think of the sages in everything, and be sages. Du Lan really didn't agree with Lu Hua's point of view, but she couldn't hear Lu Hua speak anymore, she turned her head to look at Lu Hua, only to see him smiling at herself, and suddenly thought that she had spoken deeply.
"Senior Brother Lu has bothered for me. She was silent for a moment, then said with a smile, "I like this yard very much." β
"Senior sister is polite. Lu Hua said, "Why don't you give your senior sister a name for the yard?"
"I can't think of it for a while, so I can't afford it first. Duran really thought about it, and he didn't know what to do with the name.
"Then when Senior Sister thinks of getting up again, she is not in a hurry. Lu Hua immediately followed her words and said. "Senior sister, do you have any other orders?"
"No, I'm sorry for you. Du Lanzhen shook his head, thinking that many monks with family backgrounds would give rewards to those who served him, Lu Hua followed Wen Hailan's side, he should have also seen the world, should she give him a reward? If so, what should she give?
"In that case, I'll go first. Lu Hua didn't know that she was confused, so she just said goodbye and left. Duran really breathed a sigh of relief, looked at his back, and thought about whether to reward or not.
She was the only one on the terrace. Du Lanzhen had a rare impression that there was such a time when he was neither cultivating nor being with people, and he didn't want to break it for a while, so he walked to the edge of the terrace, leaned on the railing and looked down, and saw the dark-skinned young man Di Xuan casting a spell to water the flowers, he reached out and pinched a water trick, pushed away a misty mist, and fell on the branches and leaves, leaving countless dewdrops.
"Senior Brother Di. Duran called him suddenly.
Di Xuan listened, raised his head, and just saw the little girl on the terrace looking down at him, "Senior Sister Du?"
"What kind of flower is this?" asked Duran, "it's red, it's as beautiful as fire." β
"This is the Candle Heart Orchid. Di Xuan replied, "When the flowers fall, the fragrance will float for ten miles, which is quite expensive, and most of the disciples are planting this in the courtyard, and the heart of the flower is still a taste of elixir." β
"And when will it fall?" asked Duran.
"Spring. β
"When did you get started?" Duran really had a whim.
"I, I'm the last time I started, and it's been six years. Di Xuan was a little surprised, but still answered.
It's been six years since I started. Du Lan really couldn't imagine the feeling that she had only been at the third level of qi refining for six years, just thinking about it made her feel scared, and her companions rose one by one, only standing still...... Anyone who can endure this must have a strong heart, right?
"What about Senior Brother Lu?"
"Senior Brother Lu has been a beginner for more than 20 years. β
"That's right. "Duran really only guessed that it was not a short time for Luhua to get started, but he didn't expect that it had been more than twenty years.
How would I feel if I had only been refining qi for more than twenty years? Du Lanzhen's heart suddenly swelled with a wordless sadness, and she thought of Lu Hua's words, and suddenly felt that it was not strange at all. She has no worries about food and clothing, and she has no worries about cultivation, so she can naturally stand on the moral high ground and comment wantonly, and she can live in a beautiful world with morality and innocence in her heart, but what about those who are not so lucky? Why is she enjoying all this? Why is she a double spiritual root?
Duran really knew that few people would question her qualifications as much as she did, but she knew that there was a reason for all this, and all the sympathy, sorrow, and incomprehension all came from her fear, not the fear of not wanting it, but the fear of loss.
But thinking about it the other way, although she can't answer her own confusion, she can do what she can, support morality, live up to what she has learned in her life, live up to what her teacher teaches, and be worthy of her heart. Luhua is because life is too difficult and it is difficult to pursue morality, can't she sacrifice her life for righteousness if she has no worries about food and clothing and cultivation?
She enjoyed so much, shouldn't she do something?
"In the future, this courtyard will be called Silu Pavilion, you can make a plaque and hang it later." Duran Zhen waved his hand, "I'm going to cultivate." β
Thinking of the deer, thinking of the deer, remembering the deer. Although she is not a saint, she can see the sages.
