Chapter 051: The Old Man
The shopkeeper who came in was very eye-catching, and it was rare to see such a person who looked like a high-ranking person from outside the world come to this Yuhai Building to eat, drink and have fun.
He followed diligently and said, "Dao Chief, are you alone? What about the other two? Mr. Zhong said that there are three of them today. ”
Then they arrived. "Xuan Zhen Daoist has already walked to the staircase and gone up to the second floor before he spoke.
Wu Sancai snickered in his heart, look, what's the use of a hot face and a cold ass.
The shopkeeper who has worked in this Yuhai Building for many years doesn't care, and the smile on his face is the same, but he wonders that this person is really not easy to get close to.
The second old gentleman who entered Yuhai Tower was still looking at his eyes, and the shopkeeper smashed his lips, why did Zhong Wansong go?
After waiting for a while, the expected Zhong Wansong was late, and the shopkeeper carefully sent it all the way to the third floor.
On the third floor of Yuhai Building, he glanced at the Taoist who was not easy to get close to, and the old gentleman he didn't know, he had nothing to do, so he went to the first floor, and he was still thinking in his heart that these famous people were really extraordinary, and they didn't look like ordinary people.
The bright candles on the Yuhai floor are burning, and the place on this floor is also very bright.
The evening breeze outside the building is gentle, and the lights of thousands of homes stretch far away.
There were three people sitting at the round table, and Xuan Zhendao sat by the window, silent, ignoring the wine and food on the table, and it took a while to break the somewhat awkward silence: "It's been thirty years, are the two of you doing well?"
Wei Yuanwu poured wine with the wine jar, everyone had a full glass in front of him, and said in a slow voice: "The old man is okay, thirty years is not long." ”
Zhong Wansong, who finally spoke, drank it all with his wine glass, and seemed to be too lazy to care about the twists and turns on the wine table, pouring himself a drink, and having an indelible sense of desolation: "Idle clouds and wild cranes, cure diseases and save people, and do some chivalrous and righteous things by the way, and life can be passed." ”
Silence, three acquaintances, very rare not as warm as old friends meet.
Xuanzhen Taoist continued to pour wine, and after pouring it, he poured himself a drink, no matter how the other two drank, and he didn't even push the cup and change the lamp.
"Does that person have any news?" It was Zhong Wansong who spoke, the cup was empty, and he didn't mean to pour another glass, he was not a drunkard, and he was not a drunkard, and he didn't pay much attention to drinking.
Wei Yuanwu shook his head, sighing with a bit of helplessness: "No." ”
"After that, he disappeared into thin air. "Xuanzhen Daoist also said.
Wei Yuanwu, who drank wine at the apprentice's house at noon, was still interested in having a drink, took the wine jar, and got a glass by himself, the liquor entered his intestines, and the taste was just what he wanted: "Are you still obsessed?" he asked casually.
Cheng Xian asked, the world wants it, not to mention the three of us. The tone between Xuan Zhendao's words was not like his slightly indifferent expression at this time, and he could see that Wei Yuanwu mentioned the word obsession, he was still very concerned, as for whether he could let it go or not, no matter how he was an unattainable Taoist in the eyes of the outside world, his eyes would not deceive people.
"If you can't ask for it, why bother not hitting the south wall and not looking back. Zhong Wansong's tone was more resolute than the other two.
No one spoke, and it was a little cold and embarrassing.
After a while, Wei Yuanwu asked, "Li Xian, do you know?"
"I was fortunate to have a meeting with this person on the Passing Water River that day, and I also witnessed his masterpiece of breaking the river with one palm and opening the gate of heaven for ten miles. This person is false and real, true and false, and cannot see through it. "After the farewell of the Passing Water River, the Xuanzhen Daoist has almost recovered, waiting for the deceased here, not long ago, he witnessed Li Xian's amazing behavior on this Jade Sea Tower, and there seemed to be more questions than usual.
"Is it friend or foe?" Zhong Wansong has not been to Qingyang City a few times in total, he doesn't like this place, he always feels that it is close to the Northern Barbarians, desolate and desolate, and the people are fierce, far inferior to the beautiful mountains and rivers of Wansong Valley where he is, the land of fish and rice.
"I can't say exactly. Xuanzhen Daoist was very cautious in facing this question that he couldn't answer now.
"That's it, whether it's friend or foe, Aoki Jiao's matter, I don't have any thoughts, plus the tricky opponent of the Beiyang Dynasty, things are far more complicated than we imagined. Whether it will be possible or not, no one knows. After all these years, it's time to let go of some things. God treats us well, and we can't be greedy. Zhong Wansong put it on the table with one hand and held it in the other hand, and he didn't mean to drink.
Wei Yuanwu got up and walked to the railing over there, raised his eyes to look at the brightly lit streets of Qingyang City, and muttered to himself: "I'm afraid the Beiyang Dynasty will never stop." ”
Xuanzhen Daoist smiled suddenly: "That's also useless work, the Beiyang Dynasty will eventually be empty, how can they shake the sect if they want to." What is the result of the efforts of several generations? Today, His Majesty is ambitious and talented, and there is no Han Shiqing who is struggling to support the crisis, and sooner or later the fire of Aoki Jiao will not be able to contain the fire and burn himself. ”
Zhong Wansong was relatively calm, and the expression on his face did not change much from beginning to end: "Two, this time the matter of Qingyang City is over, we will not meet again until we have to." Each is fine, and they are willing to pursue the road to becoming immortals and continue to seek. The rivers and lakes are far away, and I hope that the next time we meet, the three of us will not be unable to get together. ”
Wei Yuanwu returned to the table and drank the wine in the cup again.
Xuanzhen Taoist people are as immobile as a mountain, and they have never touched chopsticks from beginning to end.
The Yuhai upstairs was silent again, and the lights outside the building flickered and swayed in the inky night.
......
Feiyan Lake, in the west of Qingyang City, is named because the whole lake overlooks from the air, and it is like a flying swallow.
In summer, Feiyan Lake is sparkling, with boats coming and going, and captains singing local songs from somewhere.
On the inconspicuous causeway near the shore, a fisherman holds a fishing rod and goes deep into the water, next to which is a bamboo basket for fish.
The fisherman was engrossed in the line in the water, and with a slight movement, his hands pulled up the rod at great speed.
Today's luck is good, more than a dozen small fish in the bamboo basket, most of them are jumping around.
Small fish can't look down on it, and they often catch it and throw it into the water, and they have to mutter: "Young age, don't be greedy." ”
There was a sound from the boat in the lake, and the fisherman was very unhappy, glanced over there a few times, and continued fishing.
In the small boat on the lake, one master and one servant, one sitting, the other standing behind.
The boatman who took the high boat fare was very serious, and he didn't bother to care about the rich boy's style.
It's really been in the house for a long time, Li Xian, who is about to get moldy, the weather is just right, so he came out to play today.
You can't go up to the place where there are many people on the street, the river is full of devastation, and there are not many places to go, which reminds me of Feiyan Lake, a rare and clean place.
"Does the old beggar also fish?" Behind him, Sun Youcai looked at the fisherman on the long lift more than once.
"What?" Li Xian didn't understand.
"Young master, when I was over there just now, I always thought that the old man who was fishing was very familiar, and I couldn't remember it at first, but just now I remembered, isn't this the old beggar? ”
Li Xian couldn't help but look over there, because the distance was too far, he couldn't really see it, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
