Chapter 19 When I made an appointment with Qing and parted
Luo Yin hugged the tree tightly to prevent himself from falling due to the extreme cold.
One by one, the snow wolves under the trees began to be restless, and soon became shivering. They whimpered and wailed, enduring the bitter cold.
Suddenly, one of the strongest snow wolves in the pack howled, and galloped towards the north, followed by the wolves, and in a few breaths there was not a single one left, only the stray footprints in the snow proved that they had been there.
After all the wolves withdrew, Luo Yin also quickly slid down from the tree, and if he stayed any longer, he was afraid that he would freeze and fall, if he accidentally fell to death like this, it would really become a joke.
He stood in front of the trunk of the tree, clutching his clothes tightly, and watched a light and beautiful figure in front of him slowly approach. When she came to a place seven or eight steps away from her, she stopped, as if she was afraid of Luo Yin, and as if she was worried that the severe cold on her body would freeze the mortal in front of her to death.
"Thank you for saving me again, what's your name?" Luo Yin looked at the person in front of him, a little nervous and a little expectant.
She looked at Luo Yin, her eyes were full of doubts, and she opened her mouth lightly and said the first sentence since she met: "Name...... ...... word?"
Luo Yin saw her repeating what she said inarticulately, and said, "My name is Luo Yin, what is your name?"
"My ...... The name is ...... Luo Yin, your ...... Name...... Be...... What?"
"I mean, my name is Luo Yin. He pointed to himself, then to her, and said, "What is your name, can you tell me?"
She opened her mouth again and repeated Luo Yin's words: "I mean, my name is Luo Yin, what is your name, can you tell me?"
Luo Yin looked at the elf in front of him who was constantly learning to speak by himself, and patted his forehead helplessly. He could see that this was a wild monster in the mountains, who couldn't speak human words at all, she was just repeating what she said.
He sat down in the snow and began to teach the monster who couldn't say this to speak, pointing at himself and saying, "I", then pointing at her and saying, "You", pointing to the snow on the ground and saying, "Snow".
She seemed to understand that Luo Yin was teaching her to speak, and she was very happy to learn from Luo Yin. She stretched out her fingers as white as jade, pointed at herself and said: "I", pointed at Luo Yin and said: "You", pointed to the white snow on the ground and said: "Snow".
Luo Yin patiently taught her to speak, pointing out to her the things that could be found around her, such as stones, trees, and mountains, one by one, and teaching her the names of these things.
It was already dark, and the snow-capped mountains at night were very cold, and there was an ice and snow spirit beside him, which made it even more difficult for him to endure the cold. While she was learning to speak, Luo Yin picked up some firewood in the forest and came back and lit a bonfire.
She seemed to be a little afraid of the raging flames, and she stayed away from the flames with a look of fear.
Luo Yin sat by the bonfire, teaching her to speak sentence by sentence, and she also learned sentence by sentence, her speech became clearer and clearer, and her words became clearer and clearer.
After teaching her for most of the night, Luo Yin found that although she couldn't speak, she was very smart, and she could learn many things after teaching her two or three times, which surprised him.
Time gradually passed silently, and in the following days, Luo Yin stepped on the ice and snow to hurry, and she followed behind him, listening to him, listening to him lecture on all things in heaven and earth, listening to him talk about the five elements of yin and yang, and listening to him speak poems, books, rituals and music. And slowly, she was able to understand some of his words.
At noon on this day, at the foot of a small hill, the two were sitting and resting, Luo Yin kept talking to her, and she listened quietly, saying a few words by herself from time to time.
Luo Yin looked at her hard work, and asked in his heart, "Do you remember how you were born?" Seeing that she was puzzled, Luo Yin took a lot of effort to explain the meaning of birth to her.
She pondered for a moment, as if thinking about her past. Luo Yin looked at her white jade flawless face, and saw that her eyes were like water, as clear and transparent as a clear spring, attracting Luo Yin's thoughts and minds.
Luo Yin only felt as if he had sunk into her watery eyes, and his mind had escaped into her thoughts.
In the vast snowy mountains, on the highest peak, the snow does not melt all year round, and I don't know that tens of trillions of ice and snow have accumulated for hundreds of millions of years. Under the ice and snow, there is a crystal hole made of ice crystals, which connects the nine heavens at the top and the veins of ice and snow at the bottom. A cloud of ice spirit qi in the cave is conceived by the essence of the sun and the moon all the year round, and it is connected to the veins of the snow mountains to absorb the essence of ice and snow, and I don't know when a creature was born in it.
This creature has been bred in this snow-capped mountain for thousands of years, and finally one day the ice spirit qi is completely absorbed, and a daughter of heaven and earth, the ice and snow fairy, walks out of it, and the ice and snow in the heaven and earth dance happily around her, as if welcoming her arrival.
On the snow-capped mountain, there is no one in the air, there are no grass, trees, insects, ants, beasts, birds and birds, she stayed quietly in the cave for many years, and suddenly one day looked at the lively mountains and forests under the mountain, and suddenly wanted to take a look.
However, everywhere she went, the plants and trees were frozen into ice, birds, beasts, insects and fish fled in all directions, and the travelers she met also turned into ice sculptures when they approached her. Fearful of her own power, she fled back to the snow-capped mountains, staying quietly every day, with endless loneliness and loneliness.
Until one winter, in the Winter Mountains where the traveler was extinct, she saw a little fire in the distance, and she walked towards it for some reason. There, she saw a bonfire and a man. The man slept by the fire in fear of the cold, but he was soon awakened by the cold he emanated.
But, fortunately, he is still alive and has not turned into an ice sculpture.
She followed him to the top of the snowy mountain, but he fell off the cliff out of fear, and she saved him with all her might. At this time, she saw no longer fear on his face, but a smile......
Luo Yin's mind fell from her memories, he looked at the ice and snow elf in front of him, and suddenly felt a feeling of distress in his heart.
Perhaps, her fate when she came to the Snow Mountain was to dispel all loneliness and loneliness for her.
............
In the blink of an eye, six or seven days have passed, Luo Yin stood on the top of a snow-capped mountain, looking at the endless plains in the east, and couldn't help but shout.
This snow-capped mountain has finally come to an end, and I finally walked out alive. As long as you go all the way down the eastern slope of Snow Mountain, you can reach the plain and leave the Snow Mountain completely.
After the excitement was over, he calmed down, turned around, and said to her behind him, "I'm leaving." ”
Her eyes were full of doubts and she asked, "You, where are you going?"
After many days of teaching, she was able to speak some simple words, which amazed Luo Yin at her amazing learning ability. Sure enough, she is worthy of being an elf born of heaven and earth, and this innate intelligence makes her learn whatever she learns.
Luo Yin looked at the vast snow-capped mountains he had walked through, as if he had seen the endless journey of more than a year, and said in a deep voice: "I want to go to seek immortals and learn the Tao." There was once an immortal who promised me that if I could walk to where he was, he would take me as a disciple and pass on my immortal law. When the time comes, I will be able to embark on the path of immortality and seek the path of immortality. ”
She asked puzzledly, "What is the immortal law, and what is immortality?"
Luo Yin smiled: "You are the elf born in this heaven and earth, and you have a long life. But I'm different, I'm just a mortal, the life of a mortal is only a few decades in a hurry, and it is a rare longevity in the world to live for a hundred years. But for you, a hundred years is just a sleep or a nap. When you wake up, maybe I've died of old age and turned into a glass of loess. ”
He raised his head, looked at the clouds and mist above the nine heavens, and said with a firm look in his eyes: "I don't want to be the floating of life and death, so I ask for immortals, I want to learn the Tao, I want to live forever, I want to live with heaven and earth, and shine with the sun and the moon." This is my life's pursuit, no matter how difficult the road is, I will never regret it!"
She looked at Luo Yin, who had a resolute expression, and no longer spoke, just stared at him silently, imprinting the figure of this man deeply in her heart.
Luo Yin smiled and said to her, "You don't have a name, why don't I give you a name?"
She nodded, looking at him expectantly and wistfully. He has a name, and he wants to have it.
"What should I give you a name, why don't I have the surname Luo, how about calling me Luo?"
Luo Yin thought about it for a long time, and found that he really didn't have the talent to choose names, and he rejected several names for the first time.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, and I remembered that there is a sunrise in "Mo Shangsang": The sunrise in the southeast corner, shine on my Qin's Building. The Qin family has a good daughter, and her name is Luo Fu.
This Qin Luofu is a famous beauty in ancient times, and it is praised in "Mo Shangsang": The traveler sees Luofu and brushes his beard. When the young man saw Luo Fu, he took off his hat and put his head on it. The ploughman forgets his plow, and the hoe forgets his hoe;
Now the ice spirit is named Rashiki, which is commensurate with its beauty, and it complements each other.
She said, "What is my name?"
Luo Yin took out the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone that he had not used for a long time from the back basket and put it on the snow. I poured some water from the water bag and put it in the inkstone, grinding out a bend of black ink. He spread a roll of white paper on the snow, picked up the brush, and slowly wrote two big characters on the white paper with a focused expression.
He pointed to the two words written and said to her, "Luo Fu, your name." ”
She, no, it was Luo Fu who looked at the two black characters on the white paper, and felt a burst of joy in her heart, I have a name, Luo Fu, Luo Fu......
After Luo Yin waited for the ink to dry, he rolled up the roll of white paper, handed it to Luo Fu, and said, "If I give it to you, it will be a parting gift for you and me." I don't know if I'll be able to get there alive, and if I die on the way, I hope you can remember me, remember that there was once such a person as me who came to this world. ”
Luo Fu took the parting gift, her expression became a little sad, like a bend of clear spring in her eyes full of reluctance, she said softly: "You, will you still come to see me?"
Luo Yin smiled and said, "If I succeed in cultivating in the future, I will definitely come back to see you, this is your agreement with me! At that time, I will be able to approach you and will no longer be afraid of the cold on your body." ”
After speaking, he picked up the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the ground, and walked towards the bottom of the snow-capped mountain with a basket on his back, with a firm and indomitable pace.
Luo Shi held the white paper with her name written on it, and watched Luo Yin leave, his figure reflected in his eyes.
She stood quietly on the top of the snow-capped mountain, until the figure gradually disappeared into the vast white snow.
I saw her cherry mouth open slightly, and a soft word came out of her mouth.
"I'll wait for you to come back, it's your agreement with me!"
