Chapter 24: New Year's Gifts

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the first day of the New Year, people under the mountain hurriedly go out to walk the streets and alleys, and go to the homes of relatives and friends in groups of three or five to pay New Year's greetings.

Han Fengge, who had been sleeping all night, woke up in a rooster crowing and found that he was sleeping in the master's room, so he hurriedly got up and packed up the bed and walked quickly to the front hall. Master and his brothers were drinking tea and laughing.

Han Fengge walked quickly to Gu Qingping and said, "Master, the apprentice is not good, I actually fell asleep last night." ”

Gu Qingping waved his hand and said: "You are still young, it is normal that you can't stand it, you don't have to be too yourself." ”

At this time, Xiao Yu, the senior brother who had returned to Luoyun Peak, patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said to him: "Sixth, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the first thing you said when you saw the master was to ask for sin, this is not right. ”

Han Fengge came to his senses at this time, scratched his head in embarrassment, and looked at a few senior brothers who were looking at him and laughing.

Xiao Yu said again: "Fortunately, you woke up in time, I and a few junior disciples are waiting for you to pay New Year's greetings to the master together, come here." ”

Han Fengge trotted to the senior brothers.

All the disciples knelt on the ground and gave New Year's greetings to Gu Qingping, who was sitting in the hall: "Disciples, New Year's greetings to Master." I wish Master a long and healthy life and all the best. ”

Gu Qingping stretched out his hand to make them stand up and said, "Okay! After speaking, with a flick of his sleeves, six small objects floated in front of him, and he said to a few disciples: "This is a New Year's gift for you from the teacher, and it can also be regarded as New Year's money for you, you can choose one according to your preferences." ”

Several senior brothers on Kunyu Mountain frolicked and frolicked on weekdays, although the young and the young were orderly, but the matter of choosing gifts naturally let the youngest Han Fengge come first.

Han Fengge walked closer and looked at the objects in front of him: a hosta, a yellowed ancient book, a jade cicada with good appearance, a pair of beautiful golden bells, and a bronze mirror engraved with yin and yang gossip on the back. Han Fengge glanced back and forth a few times, and finally stared at the ancient book and the jade cicada wandering back and forth, not knowing how to choose.

Gu Qingping looked at his hesitant appearance, and introduced him with a smile: "This ancient book was given by an elder when the teacher was young, and it is not a great magic weapon, but it can be regarded as a rare and precious thing. It is called "The Legend of the Alien Demon", which records the life travelogues, observations and experiences of a predecessor named Mr. Songling thousands of years ago, including the scenery of famous mountains and rivers all over the world, and the stories of gods and ghosts that he has seen in his life, which is quite novel. The name of the jade cicada is 'Breeze Night Song', which was obtained by the teacher from an ancient immortal ruin. The cicada means elegant and noble, and this jade cicada can be worn on the body to avoid all evils, calm people's minds, and is a rare thing. ”

Han Fengge looked at the delicate and lifelike white jade cicada carved in front of her, and thought to herself that the girl from Tangtai liked all kinds of strange and small things the most, if she gave this jade cicada to her, she would definitely like it in her heart, but she was reluctant to read the ancient book that she wanted to read very much. After thinking about it and thinking about it, I finally made up my mind to take the jade cicada in my hand. Looking back at the ancient book again, he sighed, although he was reluctant, but he had to wait for which senior brother took the ancient book in the future, and then borrowed it himself, and it was the same.

When Han Fengge chose the jade cicada, Gu Qingping smiled slightly and didn't say anything.

Seeing that Han Fengge had finished choosing, Lu Dafeng quickly stepped forward and grabbed the pair of golden bells that he had already taken a fancy to in his hands, and looked up at the master with a blank look.

Gu Qingping knew that he was waiting for him to tell him the story of the origin of the golden bells, so he spoke: "This pair of golden bells is the legacy of a female monk named 'Golden Bell Fairy' hundreds of years ago. It was obtained from a fang market in Baiyun City. As for its efficacy, the teacher only knows that it is very sensitive to yin and evil things, and if there is a yin object hidden within a radius of 100 zhang, it will automatically warn the master, and its bell can deter the yin object, and ordinary yin objects cannot get close to it. As for the other effects, I don't know for the teacher, after all, the body of the teacher and boy does not make him truly recognize the master, but I think there are other wonders, otherwise the 'Golden Bell Fairy' would not rely on a pair of golden bells to break into a great name. ”

After listening to the master's explanation, Lu Dafeng shook the golden bell in his hand vigorously, and his eyes suddenly lit up: "Sure enough, it didn't sound, I picked up the treasure, I don't know if Senior Sister Lin of Lingxiu Peak can unlock the secret on it." ”

The fourth senior brother, Du Zhaoqian, stepped forward with a smile, grabbed the wooden box, and walked back to the middle of the senior brothers. He knew in his heart that the wooden box contained a rare treasure that he desperately needed now that he was about to break the mirror. I was still sad about that thing before, and I didn't think that Master had prepared it for me.

The third senior brother Lin Baiyu walked to the remaining three things without any hesitation, and directly took the bronze mirror in his hand, feeling the familiar and distant aura in it, and said to Gu Qingping gratefully: "Disciple, thank you Master for your success!"

Gu Qingping nodded and said, "Since this bronze mirror is a lost thing from your ancestors, it is naturally the most suitable for you to hold it now." ”

When it was Yun Fei's turn to choose, he took the ancient book back and handed it to Han Fengge, who was sticking out his head behind him, and said, "I haven't paid much attention to these things, I know you like this book, so let's take it and read it." ”

Han Fengge happily hugged the ancient book in his arms and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Yun." ”

In the end, the hosta was collected by the senior brother Xiao Yu in his hand, and he couldn't put it down. The gently twisted crystal hosta is also engraved with a line of seal characters: "Words and thoughts of the gentleman, warm as jade." "It's very apt.

The disciples who received the master's reward, under the leadership of the senior brother Xiao Yu, began to visit the various peaks to pay New Year's greetings. Every time they go to a main peak, the uncles will enjoy some small objects that are not very precious but strange, such as spirit insects that can swallow metal, ancient paintings with extraordinary aura, teacups that pour clear water and tea fragrance, very rare spirit flower seeds, and so on. Han Fengge patted the Qiankun bag tied around his waist and smiled, this time he could be regarded as making a lot of money. The next time I see the girl from Tantai, I will give her a brain, which will definitely make her happy.

Han Fengge has installed that girl in his heart, and his daily mood is either like a spring breeze or ashamed of himself, and he hangs his head. The girl's smile was like a spring breeze, and she always missed the warmth in her heart, but when she thought of her stupid mouth and low cultivation, she felt that the girl might not necessarily like herself. These expressions were seen in the eyes of all the senior brothers, and the fourth senior brother had the most ghost ideas, so he told him that the girls all like delicious food, fun, and good-looking, as long as he can give more gifts to the girls, then the girls will be happy, and they will naturally like him.

Han Fengge thought carefully about the time they spent together, and the girl from Tangtai really liked those delicious snacks very much, and also liked some uncommon rare objects, so he believed in what Du Zhaoqian said.

How did Han Fengge know that although his fourth senior brother instilled all kinds of experience in getting along with girls in him and Lu Dafeng all day long, he was actually a superficial prodigal son who had never even touched the girl's little hand. His words such as "Sister loves pretty bustards and loves money, how can there be charming medicine in shabby." The "mantra" is just a joke from hearsay in the teahouse at the foot of the mountain, how can it be used to measure all women in the world?

The love between men and women in the world is still incomprehensible to the saints, how can it be explained clearly by mortal sayings in three or two sentences?
