Chapter 10 Immortal Village
About ten miles away from the "Lingtianfu City", there is a quiet small mountain village, called "Xianyi Village", there is a clear river not far from the head of the village, there is an old man wearing a hat and a straw hat sitting by the river, he is sitting on the bank of the river and fishing, there is a drizzle in the sky, a thin layer of clouds and mist rises from the earth, which permeates the entire mountain and river, and the insects and birds call to set off a peaceful scene, like a paradise.
Flowers and plants all over the mountains are rushing to bloom on the earth, and a large number of colorful butterflies are dancing in the fields of the plains, looking at it from a distance, as if painting a colorful picture scroll in the earth, which is beautiful.
"Huang Yun" walked all the way along the official road, the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers came into view, passing by a small river, found an old man fishing on the bank of the river, and a few small snow-white fish jumped in the small bamboo basket next to it.
"Huang Yun" was interested, so he walked to the bank of the river, walked lightly to a sleek stone not far behind the old man, sat down, and watched the old man fishing.
Such a pleasant scene makes the "yellow clouds" The heart suddenly rose a trace of emotion, people in this life may be like this, sometimes happy, sometimes sad, sometimes angry, sometimes cheerful, from life to death, undoubtedly just a process, who can control their own destiny, life and death have their own strengths and weaknesses, from the heart, determined by the sky, people since they were born in this world do not know whether their life is happy or sad, still struggling to survive in the world, maybe people in this life is just a pursuit of ordinary, carefree, unrestrained, ordinary may be life.
Just like the old man in front of him, he fishes quietly, does not ask about the world, does not compete with fate, does not compete with heaven and earth, does what he wants, and lives the life of ordinary people calmly, which makes people envious, isn't this the life that people are pursuing.
"Huang Yun" did not disturb the old man fishing, but sat quietly and watched, and soon the old man caught a small white fish, very skillfully pulled out the small hook, casually put the little white fish into the bamboo basket, put on the bait and threw it into the river again.
After a long time, the old man sighed;
"It seems that today's fish don't eat bait, so let's stop today."
I saw the old man packing up the fishing gear, carrying the bamboo basket on his back, holding the fishing rod, and preparing to go home, when the old man suddenly spoke;
"Where does the boy come from, and where is he going, the young man is so idle to watch the old man fishing, he should not be in a hurry, can you go to the old man's humble house to have a light meal, this biting cold wind will inevitably make people feel physically and mentally cold, presumably the young man also came from afar, and he was also hungry and cold along the way, why not go to the village with the old man to have a light meal and then go"
"Huang Yun" frowned slightly, it turned out that the old man had long known that "Huang Yun" was here to watch the old man fishing, but he didn't make a sound.
"Huang Yun" got up and hugged his fists;
"Junior!" named "Huang Yun" from afar, I don't know where to go, go with my heart, wander around, happen to pass by here, see the seniors fishing here, idle and have nothing to do, so stop and watch, don't want to disturb the seniors' idleness"
The old man laughed and said;
"The young man doesn't know where to go, it's better to go to the old man to sit down, taste the old wine brewed by the old man, meet is fate, the old man has not seen the living here for a long time, the young man is from afar, the old man wants to entertain the guests, the young man wanders alone, I am afraid that he will also encounter a lot of difficulties, just can also trim one or two under the house, drink some wine and talk about interesting things."
"Huang Yun" pondered for a while, felt embarrassed to refuse, and had no choice but to hold his fists;
"The younger generation is better than obeying the fate, and there is a senior to entertain you"
The old man smiled slightly;
"The young man doesn't have to be polite, please come with the old man."
After saying that, the old man walked along the riverside path in the direction of the village, and "Huang Yun" followed.
After crossing a wooden bridge and passing through a field, you can see the fragrance of wildflowers everywhere, and the gorgeous petals are even more colorful with the arrival of colorful butterflies.
It didn't take long for the two to walk under a stout banyan tree at the head of the village, and saw a group of people watching two old people who were seriously thinking about the chess game in front of the stone table under the tree.
When everyone saw the old man who had returned from fishing and walked into the village, a group of young people gathered around the chess table also greeted the old fisherman! One of them, who looked to be about eighty years old, said respectfully to the old fisherman;
"Uncle Liu, why did you come back so early today?
"Old Angler," he said, sighing;
"Hey, today's harvest is average, after fishing for a long time, I only caught a few small white fish, pick some wild vegetables for a while, make some soup, and it is also a delicious dish to drink."
"Huang Yun" was also stunned when he heard the conversation between the two, saying that the old man in front of him, who looked like he was over eighty, actually called the "old man fisherman" his uncle, so the old man who invited him to be a guest was not more than 100 years old, and the old man seemed to be more energetic than this group of old people who were watching and playing chess.
Someone saw the "yellow cloud" following behind him and asked without asking;
"This young man is very face-to-face! I'm from out of town! I don't know what I'm doing here."
"The old man of the angler" said with a smile;
"This young man is a little friend that the old man just met, he is very fateful, seeing that the young man is young and friendly, and he is approachable, so the old man kindly invited the young man to go to the old man's cold house to sit and have a light meal, you continue to play chess, and the old man will go back to make a fire and cook vegetables first."
After a few words of greeting, the old angler walked into the village with "Huang Yun".
Along the way, "Huang Yun" learned from the conversation with the "fishing old man" that the old man's name was "Liu Fangzi", he was not a native of this village, but many years ago he traveled here, saw that this place is surrounded by mountains and rivers, the scenery is beautiful, the climate is refreshing all year round, suitable for self-cultivation and self-cultivation, the villagers are simple and kind, and they have made up their minds to settle here, and this treatment is a hundred years.
"Liu Fangzi" personally saw off the old man who was his generation or even younger than him, because he was the oldest and the longest-lived old man in the village, so the people in the village respected him very much.
Soon "Liu Fangzi" took "Huang Yun" to a small farmhouse courtyard, the old man gently pushed open the courtyard door, "creak" the courtyard door opened, only to see that the courtyard is very neat, the farming utensils are placed neatly, and all kinds of exotic flowers and plants are planted on both sides of the courtyard, which looks like a small garden.
At that moment a light voice came from one of the rooms;
"Great-grandfather, you're back, why did you come back so early today, you usually come home very late, what kind of wind blew you back today?"
At this time, a very delicate girl walked out of the room, her face was as white as jade, her willow eyes were curved eyebrows, and her big clear eyes looked very cute.
As soon as the girl stepped out of the house, she saw that there was an extra teenager in the courtyard, and she was suddenly a little surprised in her heart, and after a pause, she walked quickly to the front of "Liu Fangzi";
"Who is great-grandfather?
"Liu Fangzi" stroked the girl's head lovingly and said softly;
"This son is your great-grandfather met by chance when he was fishing, see this son go out alone, pass by here, all the way to the dust, not like a bad person, look at this son is also strange and pitiful, great-grandfather will have good thoughts, let this son come to the house as a guest, you don't think that people are about the same age as you bully a descendant from other places"
The girl pursed her lips and whispered;
"Oh, I know, why do you keep saying I love to bully?"
"Liu Fangzi" laughed;
"Okay, okay, great-grandfather, don't say okay, our Yurou is the most understanding and well-behaved and cute little princess, okay, you, you should have the appearance of a girl, don't be as rude as before"
The girl muttered, and walked to the flower garden in the yard with some displeasure, picked up scissors, and went to trim the flowers and plants in the yard.
"Liu Fangzi" took off the hat on his body and smiled at "Huang Yun";
"This is the great-granddaughter of the old man, who grew up in Fucheng since she was a child, has an arrogant heart and an eccentric temperament, please don't be strange young man, come and sit in the house"
"Huang Yun" holds his fists;
"It's okay! the juniors are casual, the seniors don't have to be polite, the first time to visit, it's really presumptuous, the juniors want to take a walk and see, a glimpse of the beautiful scenery of the mountain village"
"Liu Fangzi" said with a faint smile;
"The young man is in such a mood, so good, the young man is free to take a look, the old man will go to get some wine and food first, and it will be fine soon"
"Huang Yun" holds his fists;
"Seniors with work"
The old man nodded and walked into the kitchen.
After the old man walked into the house, the girl walked a few steps briskly to "Huang Yun", looked at "Huang Yun" carefully, and after a while, she spoke;
"Where did you come from?"
"Huang Yun" looked slightly moved, and said with a faint smile;
"I have been wandering all over the world since I was a child, and I have no place to live, and I can't remember where I came from."
The girl muttered to herself with a look of disdain;
"Great-grandfather is really, he actually brought a person of unknown origin to his house as a guest, what if it is a person with bad intentions, according to what Miss Ben saw, this person must be a bad person"
The girl paused, and continued;
"And what's your name?"
"Huang Yun" said;
"Under the Yellow Cloud"
The girl pouted;
"Huang Yun! is not a good name at all."
"Huang Yun" frowned slightly;
"The name is just a title, I don't care if it sounds good or not"
The girl pouted and said;
"Look at what you're wearing, you look like a little Taoist, where are you practicing?"
"Huang Yun" couldn't resist the girl's questioning, so he had to reply;
"It's not a Taoist priest in the lower part, the clothes are just used to avoid the cold, to cover the shame and protect the body, this Taoist robe is just found in a ruined Taoist temple on the lower road, when the heavy rain soaked the clothes below, I had to change into this Taoist robe, which has nothing to do with identity"
The girl glanced at "Huang Yun" disdainfully, and snorted;
"Hmph! The ghost knows if what you said is true or false, yin and yang are weird, words and deeds are weird, don't play, Miss Ben is going to help my great-grandfather make a fire and cook vegetables, I don't want to talk to you"
After saying that, he ran into the kitchen with a cigarette
"Huang Yun" was dumbfounded for a while, she was really a quirky little girl.
