Chapter Fifty-Four: Dongpo and Mengde

Under the bright moonlight, the path between the woods can still be seen clearly. The pure white and transparent light is as gentle and agile as water, the evening breeze stirs the rustle of the woods, and Xiao He, who is swimming at night, holds a long shadow, walking very slowly and comfortably.

The quiet mountain village has long since turned off the lights and fallen into a sweet and peaceful sleep. It was quiet all around, there was no sound, and even the watchdog who had just done his duty and was excited when he saw Xiao He was hanging his ears and falling asleep. The stars appear as bright as jewels in the complete darkness of the night, vast and lonely. Dotted around, like a dream. Xiao He walked like this, and the quiet scenery around him made him intoxicated. He turned a corner and walked out of the village, and without hesitation went up a deep path towards the Infinite Peak.

The deep and winding forest path exudes a soft and quiet atmosphere under the moonlight. The mottled shadows of the trees and the fragrant air made Xiao He feel calm, and looked around, this Wuji Peak Zhong Lingyu is beautiful, the water and grass are abundant, the breeze is quiet, and there is a very spiritual aura, not to mention the beauty of the grass and trees, there is a vast and vast breath lingering in the mountains everywhere, so that the demons dare not approach. Thinking about it, this Wuji Peak is the boundary of the Kunlun faction, and it is naturally a blessed land of immortals, gathering the righteousness of the world, majestic and awe-inspiring.

With such a wonderful night, Xiao He was not afraid of the darkness at all, but gave birth to a refreshing and heroic feeling. He looked far away and saw a cliff not far above. At night, the lush forests lift up the cliffs like a solidified black tide, and the cliffs are extremely smooth. Xiao He reacted, it was a viewing platform, so he quickened his pace and trekked towards the mountain in great strides, and the curiosity and pleasure in his heart were indescribable. On the observation deck, there must be a more beautiful moonlight.

Although he has not stepped into the immortal gate, but thanks to Chonghua's blessing, he has already removed the mortal bones. The body function is naturally far better than that of ordinary people, the long and winding mountain trail looms in the moonlight, the more you go up, the steeper it becomes, as if it is a flying ribbon soaring up, or the nine-day galaxy that is flying straight down, in short, the angle is tricky, it is not easy to get off the foot, but Xiao He, who is full of joy, can also deal with it easily, like a flexible monkey, climbing the branches of the tree three or two times to get out of the viewing platform on the cliff.

There is a way, it will be the top of the mountain, and the mountains are small.

The starry sky overhead and the surrounding mountains can be seen as far as the sky can behold. Beneath the cliff is an endless sea of inky clouds, and a huge white moon floats. The fluffy moonlight is like ink, beautiful, the so-called moon on the sea, the end of the world at this time, nothing more than that, right?

The warm breeze was blowing, the scenery was magnificent, Xiao He comfortably climbed over the stone guardrail of the observation deck, stretched his legs out of the cliff, and shouted a few times happily. He couldn't help but recall one night many years ago, Xiao He and his grandmother were walking on the way home, the long, dark alley, he was in front, and his grandmother followed slowly, the moon in the sky was big and round, exactly the same as tonight.

Thinking of this, Xiao He couldn't help but feel a little sad when he touched the scene. When I joined the army that year, for the first time in the army, the soldiers in the squad happily gathered together, making dumplings, singing, and drinking, which was very lively. Halfway through the banquet, after three rounds of wine, I don't know who started, a melodious and euphemistic green flower in the army sang and cried all the recruits' eggs, even if he was as stubborn as Xiao He, he couldn't stop the idea of homesickness, and secretly stayed in the toilet and cried. At that time, he met Yazi, who was secretly hiding in the toilet and crying on his small mobile phone to call home, and the bright moonlight poured in through the window, and tears glistened on his dark face..........

Chaotic thoughts kept coming to my heart, and in the blink of an eye, so many years had passed, my father was gone, my mother was gone, my grandmother was gone, my brother was gone, and they all died. If he really met a god who was in charge of the fate of mortals in the future, Xiao He would definitely ask him, why did he arrange so many tribulations for himself? While thinking wildly, there was a rustling sound from the cliff under his feet. Xiao He was startled, and hurriedly jumped back to the viewing platform, his hands crossed his chest at a loss, and he looked vigilantly at the cliff ahead.

It won't be so unlucky, and it will attract some monsters!

A large, rough and swarthy hand clung to the stone platform with a "hey", and his fingers turned white from the hard grip. Xiao He was so frightened that he didn't know what to do, and in the middle of the night, someone was climbing the mountain? This Wuji Peak was like a sharp sword pointing straight into the sky, more than twice as high as the surrounding mountains, and the mountain peaks were extremely steep and precipitous, if you want to climb from the bottom to the top, I am afraid that it is no different from going directly to the sky. Xiao He was curious, who is the black guy?

The figure wore a knight's hat that was certainly glowing with moonlight, and its face was hidden in the darkness, with only a pair of capable and precise eyes. He was dressed in a very rudimentary thatched garment, tied only with a straw rope around his waist. The half-cut linen pants were barefoot, and the instep was a little black from the climbing. He carried a huge bamboo basket on his back, and he didn't know what it contained. This strange creature was not very tall, judging by his size, he was about fifty years old. There was a strange fragrance on his body, accompanied by the bright moon and breeze, as if it was a mellow brew, which attracted Xiao He's index finger!

Without waiting for Xiao He to open his mouth to ask why this little old man appeared in such a strange way, the little old man sighed and said strangely: "Where did you come from?"

It is rare to see such a retro and strange-looking person in the modern city, Xiao He decided to be a strange-looking person on a whim, so he smiled and said: "Undress and sleep, see the moonlight and enter the house, and set off happily." ”

The little old man was stunned, but he understood, laughed for no reason, and received it with great interest: "Those who have nothing to do with pleasure come to this rooftop to find 'Zhang Mengde'?"

Xiao He smiled: "This old comrade is also a person who likes to be vassal. ”

"What kind of elegance is not elegant, just a reckless man!"

The little old man laughed, sat on the ground easily, and unloaded the bamboo basket behind him.

"In the middle of the night, you are the first one to come to the place to admire the moon. ”

The little old man took out a water bag from his bosom, unscrewed it, took a sip, smacked his lips, and shook his head. He took off his hat and showed his face. Xiao He was startled, only to see that half of the little old man's face was actually slashed from the peak of his eyebrows to the corner of his mouth by a long scar like a centipede! Wherever the long scar passed, the flesh was rubbed together as if it were straw paper, and that eye had long since lost any luster. Xiao He saw that the other half of his face had the appearance of a crane-haired childish face, quite a fairy-like demeanor. In the lonely moonlight, the other face of the little old man was as ugly as the evil ghost of hell, which made people a little creepy.

Seeing the little old man like this, Xiao He was a little sad.

Can't keep it is also a person with a story that makes people sigh.

The little old man didn't mind Xiao He's gaze very much, he was probably used to being looked at like this, so he didn't care much, he took another sip of water, wiped his mouth by himself, and ignored Xiao He.

"Are the seniors also here for this rooftop moonlight?"

Xiao He felt that it was rude to stare directly at others, and then looked at the beautiful moonlight and asked lightly.

The little old man was stunned again, and said, "Senior? ”

Xiao Hexin said You guy is really pretending to be a good man, how can there be a reckless man who climbed up from under the cliff? He was angry and funny, this little old man is definitely not an ordinary person, but no matter who he is, he will not be lonely in this night.

Xiao He didn't answer, and continued to be curious: "Dare to ask what good things the seniors brought with them, why are they so fragrant?"

The little old man sat on the ground, patted the position beside him boldly, and said, "Dongpo boy, come and accompany the old man to drink two cups of wine and food under this moonlight, and I will tell you!"
