The young man sat silently, looking up, not daring to look sideways.

The old man was sprinkled with emotion, and his face showed an aftertaste. Talking about the long way to study in the past, the journey was hard.

As early as 30 years ago, the old man sought to learn allegory, in order to distinguish between gains and losses, and to learn from heaven and man. Unexpectedly, it backfired, and he failed to become a temple minister, but was given money to be returned, and since then he has been living in the mountains and forests, and he has been an idle person who asks and answers himself, which is also very ashamed. The old man reached out and tightened his loose collar, and after a long time, he still looked sad.

Although the teenager was an observer, he was an audience member after all. The occasional thought in my heart is just a place to confirm each other, how to interrupt the old man with an aftertaste on his face.

"But now the times have changed, and the past is gone. Now it's in vain to make the young man laugh. The old man turned to lean back in his chair, looked at the young man with doubts on his face and sometimes sobriety, smiled, and then pursed his lips and took a sip of tea.

He moistened his throat and continued: "The good things that these old men have done are not good, and there are also a lot of foolish things. Dare to ask Shaoxia, if you find that you have embarked on a road of no return from the beginning, what will you do to Shaoxia. ”

The old man turned around again, and his body, which was not far away, almost turned into an arc at this time.

The boy bowed his head and pondered but did not answer.

"Zhiyu, that's probably what my story is. However, there is no lack of nonsense and nonsense, but it is probably also appropriate. But the old man still thinks that his life experience is much worse than that of an immortal like you, and the Taoist people who help the blue sky are still much worse. Tell us about your story. The old man laughed, not making it difficult for this young man who could be called familiar at first sight, he reached out and touched the long hair that hung down, and looked at the young man's eyes showing a little hope more or less.

The young man propped his head, just lowered his head to reminisce about the twists and turns and hardships, Rao is old man finished expressing his feelings in his heart, and the silent young man still did not wake up from the silence.

The candles flickered, and there was silence all around. After a long time, the young man, who had only woken up from his solitary contemplation, looked at the old man suspiciously and said, "Sir, why don't you talk about it." Zhiyu can taste the truth, and he is in the time of lingering. Mr. didn't say it at this time, which made Zhiyu, who was lost and half-thought, a little embarrassed" The young man swallowed his voice slowly, methodically.

"Young man, the old man has finished talking about his life experience, and he knows everything clearly. The block in his chest has been flattened, and the young man might as well talk about the scenery that cannot be seen in ordinary places, and also open the old man's eyes. The old man whispered softly and looked at the young man carefully. There is a lot of expectation and hope in his eyes.

"I, a person who knows the mountains and wilderness, what I have mistaken is the principle of the Burrow after all, and it is difficult to reach the elegant hall in front of Mr. after all. It's better not to say. The young man's face was red, and it was really difficult to grasp. Unconsciously he reached out again and touched the corner of his drooping clothes, rubbing his fingers that had regained warmth.

Looking at the cramped look on the young man's face again, Wang Zhiran did not say anything to stimulate him. Instead, he looked at the young man gently, and quipped: "Pianpian young man reads, gentle speaking is the norm." But if you blindly spit out without expressing your own opinions, I am afraid that in the end you will be lost in the vast sea of people, and you will never return to your original state. You and I met by chance, and it was like old friends at first sight. Despite speaking freely. ”

"Mr. Wang, is that absolutely the case?" the young man hurriedly stretched out his hand and waved, his face anxious. Unexpectedly, the tea he drank had not yet been swallowed into his stomach, and in a hurry, not only did he not spit out the words in his heart, but he spit out most of the tea in his mouth, which added a little embarrassment to others.

With a chuckle, the old man refilled the teacup and said, "Zhiyu." Although there is a huge difference in age between you and me, the heart of the Tao is almost the same, don't think about what kind of person I am full of poetry at this time, although I am regarded as an old man who has never known each other, just discussing poetics as an equal. The old man pulled over a yellow pear chair and sat down beside the young man.

"Mr. Wang, although Zhiyu knows a little about Jinglun and has a little insight into the common sense of the world, Zhiyu also knows the truth that he can't trust himself, and he really doesn't dare to make an axe, and he is smiling and generous. The young man looked restrained and stood up.

How can the old man, who is accustomed to seeing wind and rain, not see through the truth on the young man's face. But some doubts are pressed in my heart, lingering, and how to get rid of them. He had no choice but to look at his old face again, and said with a forced smile: "No matter how much experience the young man has, there will always be many places that ordinary people can hardly see. The ancients said: Mountains, rivers, birds, beasts, insects, and fish often have them, and they are everywhere with the depth of their thinking. How did the young man not have a little sigh in his heart. ”

The young man couldn't take it off, so he had to clear his throat and say: "Along the way, there is no need to say much about the ordinary situation, and the most strange thing is that the deep dense forests, mountains and rivers are far away, and the spirits are dormant in the middle, grinding their teeth and allowing blood, and choosing people to eat. ”

The young man spoke slowly, talked about what he had seen and heard along the way, and talked about the hardships and dangers along the way.

......

Zhao Qingrou closed the door tightly, and waited until the sporadic sounds around her were completely cut off before she groped for the furnishings in the room and climbed onto the small bed that had turned cold at this time.

The furnishings on the bed are still the same, and the quilt is the same as before. When I climbed on the head of the bed at this time, the deep sleep that had been pressing on my heart had disappeared, and I no longer felt calm. On the contrary, it is like the tide that rises and falls day and night next to Longhai County, endless, and the ups and downs are invisible.

Outside the house, the maid and maid of the palace saw the young man leaving in a bad mood, knowing that she had caused a big disaster, how could she dare to stay here for a long time at this time, and she also left, gradually moving away.

Zhao Qingrou's mind was full of turns, and she was like a thousand burdens, but she still couldn't lie on the couch peacefully.

Listening to the wind pavilion, the young man spoke softly, talking about the hardships and dangers between the dense forests, saying that the demons were ferocious, and the ghosts sucked blood. But whenever he talked about getting along with Zhao Qingrou, a trace of warmth appeared on the young man's suspicious face, and the panic that had surfaced was divided into a calm.

"Since the young man has experienced such hardships and dangers, although the old man can't watch it in person, he can also get a glimpse of the leopard from the young man's words, and he knows a little bit about it. However, every time the little girl named Zhao Qingrou was mentioned, she returned to a state of joy. The old man smiled softly, picked up the cold teapot on the table, and refilled the young man with tea.

The young man muttered to himself, just thinking about what he had seen and heard along the way, how could he have cared about this. When he heard the ridicule between the old man's words, he suddenly woke up, and thousands of thoughts in his heart were like a tide.

"I just thought that all the way around the mountains and rivers, thousands of rivers and mountains are love. As long as it is reasonable, you can get rid of it. Unexpectedly, those mountains and rivers are all big dreams, and the only thing left is that piece of sunshine" The young man quietly clenched his fists, got up and stood in front of the door.

"Sir, I'll talk about it in the future. The young man's steps were flustered, and he jumped out without choosing a path.

The old man was silent, not moving, just watching the young man's figure gradually disappear in front of the corridor.

"How can a young man be worried!" Wang Zhiran was excited, and he was worried about himself.

Li Zhiyu walked straight, ran through the corridor, and stepped through the flowing water room. Walking straight to the back of sweat, panting suddenly came back to his senses, he was so aimless, when is the head.

When I came here, I felt a lot of emotion in my heart, and I only looked forward to sorting out my thoughts in the fading corridor. When I meet Zhao Qingrou next time, I will tell me what I mean. But now it's hard to get lost, and there's a lot of hatred. The boy looked at the diagonal corridor around him and cried out loudly.

Listen to the wind pavilion, the wind chimes are long, and the dingdong comes.

"Childe, dare to ask if you are lost here and don't know where you come from?" A pleasant voice like a silver bell sounded, and the cold wind gradually reached the young man's ears.

The young man must be anxious to find his way, and when he heard the voice coming from the side, his constricted heart instantly became a little clearer. He replied happily: "Dare to ask who the young lady is?" I actually learned what Zhiyu was thinking. If the young lady knows how to get out of it, would she like to give me some advice?"

The young man looked expectantly at the surrounding scenery, only to feel that the surroundings were like seeing flowers in the fog, and his eyes were full of haze.

But the man seemed to be deliberately playing tricks on the young man, and after saying what the young man was thinking, he did not reply. Instead, he didn't say anything for a long time, ignoring the anxious young man.

Li Zhiyu looked far away, but the night was dim, even if he had great luck and the power to get rid of the evil, facing the vast sky at this moment, he also had a sense of power. I can only look at the silent night in front of me and be blind.

Hmph, two more chuckles came, but then it turned into a drowsy as it had begun.

So many times back and forth, even the young man who had already seen the demon couldn't help but feel frightened in his heart, and wanted to escape.

Hehe, the woman's voice came out again, but this time it was not as absent and unreachable as before, but it seemed to be stuck in front of the young man, whispering softly and softly.

"Do you really look like a person?" the woman's coquettish voice appeared in the young man's ears again, and the young man hurriedly looked sideways when he heard it, what he saw in his eyes was still hazy, and when he turned around, he saw a red dress just passing by.

The boy jumped suddenly, and crossed the distance by a foot. It can be seen that the surroundings are still hazy, and the teenager who is full of urgency and depression does not dare to act too rashly. He secretly clenched his fists, closed himself in one place, looked at the six roads, and listened to all directions, only expecting to see the figure of the person who came. But there were other sounds around besides the gloomy light and shadow and the falling branches of the withered yellow leaves.

"Ghosts?" the young man's voice trembled, and he squatted lightly on his knees. Unexpectedly, the woman who was deep in this place actually smiled again: "Childe is a wonderful person, seeing flowers in the fog like this, after all, it is not very real, it is better to ask Childe to move and come to my hidden place to have a look." Before the woman finished speaking, the floating scene in front of the young man's eyes had changed dramatically in an instant.

"What a demon method is this. The young man looked at the floating mountains and rivers in front of him in amazement, like a shadow hidden in the wall, and the surrounding corridors suddenly swayed brightly. Or listen to the birds and warblers, or smell the fragrance of flowers.

The boy waved his arm back, reaching out and touching a low-pressure branch within reach.

Unexpectedly, before his fingers touched the erect flower branch, the branch with the small pink flower retreated into the distance, impartially avoiding the young man's outstretched fingers.

A chuckle sounded again, and then a bright red robe reappeared in front of the young man's eyes.

"What exactly do you want to do?" the boy trembled, and his fear could not be oversipated. But every time he made an inquiry, the robe disappeared again, making the anxious young man feel like he was burning.

Under the long river, a bright woman in red stretched out her slender fingers and pinched a thin needle one inch long, staring intently at the white clothes that kept emerging in front of her.

"Qing'er, do you still like the clothes that my mother embroidered for you?" The woman in red took the white robe in her hand and shook it lightly against the ground, and suddenly a neon glow floated out from the top of the robe and turned into a delicate figure.

The water ripples, and the child's figure only exists for a moment before it calms down with the undulating water waves.

"Qing'er, my mother has knitted you a new dress. The woman smiled quietly, but there were blood and tears flowing down her beautiful face.

In the view of Luohu, since Wen Zhiliang was given the imperial edict and achieved the foundation of the avenue, these days he has become more and more secluded and unaware of the world. Only occasionally go alone in the wind and enjoy the scenery of mountains and rivers.

In the side hall, since the statue of the Heavenly Venerable for Salvation was blessed by Zhao Qingfeng with Taoism, it has long lost the dusty color of the past, but has become more and more restrained, and it looks no different from ordinary mountain stones. But only the Taoist priests in the Taoist temple know that whenever the master puts incense on the statue, there will be a colorful glow of Taoism bursting out from the statue, and the sound of chanting bursts. What is particularly strange is that once the Taoist priest who gave incense to Tianzun in the early morning actually saw Tianzun open his eyes and look at the endless sky with compassion. He never told anyone about this, and the only time he saw the master wanted to pour it out, he was also suppressed by this thought.

In the west of Longhai County, an elegant Taoist priest dressed in white walked in the ankle-drowning stream with a huge lotus flower in one hand and a half-crystal lotus root in the other.

"Master said that there are holy generals in the East China Sea and holy generals in the West Sea. Now it seems that this lotus root can come in handy. The Taoist priest smiled softly, and his figure disappeared in an instant.

At the bottom of the East China Sea, a young man dressed in white roared angrily, sometimes remorsefully raising his feet and stomping on the ground embedded with pearls and jade.

"This Taoist priest bullies people! This Taoist priest bullies people! Your master died in your hands, what is the matter with Lao Tzu. Aren't you just relying on your cultivation to be profound? You kind of fucking climb up a tall building and go to find those old guys. What kind of ability is bullying me, bullying me?" the young man shouted loudly and angrily, and sometimes crystal tears slipped down the young man's face. But when it landed, those little tears turned into round pearls.

"What's it called? You useless thing, if you have the ability, go and grab it back. Shouting in front of the old lady, do you think the old lady is muddy?" A louder roar than the young man came from the glorious mansion of the crystal wall, startling countless splashes.

The boy immediately retracted his head, and did not dare to speak out loud.

In the north of the Chu State, the sky is high and far away, and it is barren. On the uninhabited path, a Taoist priest dressed in white resisted the huge lotus flower on one shoulder, and carried the lotus root that had shrunk most of the time in a short period of time in one hand and shuttled alone between the vastness.

"I didn't expect that most of the heaven and earth lotus harvested from the East China Sea had withered in just a moment, it seems that the magic in charge of the water and soil really didn't deceive me. The Taoist priest frowned slightly, staring at the endless wilderness, and gradually became a little anxious in his heart.

He looked around blindly, saw that there was a vast expanse as far as his eye could see, and squatted down to grab a handful of yellow mud under him, and poured it out towards the endless expanse.

The Taoist priest's white clothes are fluttering, like an immortal coming to the world.

Outside Qinglian Village, outside of the terrifying battle that has occurred for more than ten years. The things in the village are naturally under martial law a lot, and the guard general Liu Yi changed the place where the troops were stationed, and divided the various departments under his jurisdiction into three roads, and spread out along the Taoguan terrain ladder, and distributed them one after another, so as to evenly divide the enemy's situation. As a result, there have been many changes in the military strength of various departments in Taoguan.

In addition to the original focus on guarding the pass, part of the army was allocated to various dangerous places in the city to prevent the enemy from mutiny. At this time, a man in his thirties walked in a precipitous pass wrapped in a jet-black robe.

"God's face really changes, and last month was a rare sunny day. But this is only a month, and the snow has fallen half a foot deep, which can tell me how to live. The man muttered, a bitter lament on his face.

But God seemed to be about to oppose him, and as soon as the man's words landed, another black wind rolled up, and the robe wrapped in the blowing man swayed.

"Damn, thief, you're getting more and more talking. Lao Tzu just scolded you a few words, how can you have such a big temper, it is even bigger than the Bodhisattva offered in the temple. After the man finished speaking, he couldn't help but smile softly, and continued: "I haven't seen this Bodhisattva, but the official sitting in the yamen is the one who is difficult to mess with. ”

The man laughed and cursed, stepping on deep footprints in the snow.
