The lotus is divided into two flowers, and the flowers bloom and peduncle

- Guan Pingchao

Just when Xingyan leaned over to look at the falling water jade lotus, he was extremely surprised to see that this snow jade lotus bud, after falling leisurely and touching the water, bloomed into a delicate water lotus in a moment.

Seeing such strange things, Xingyan hurriedly turned over and jumped off the lake shore from the willow branches, kicked off his shoes, and waded into the water to inspect the white jade water lotus that was blooming by itself.

And Qiong Wei and Kou Xueyi also stood on the shore behind the young man, watching him go to salvage the water lotus.

Standing in front of this jade lotus, he found that in the heart of this blooming water lotus, a crystal jade mirror is accumulating, the smoke is rippling, and the light can shine on people. It's just that in this lotus mirror, what is reflected now is not the face of a young man, but the delicate back of a long-haired girl.

And this girl, although she is turning her back to the awakening words of looking down, her figure is already extremely familiar to the young man:

This girl in the lotus is the princess of the four profanities in the Poyang Dragon Palace, Ling Yi'er.

Now, Lingyi is dressed in a dusty snow-colored silk shirt, sitting in front of the coral stone table, holding her cheeks with her hands on her cheeks, contemplating, and the black silk on her head is scattered like a waterfall, looking extremely soft and peaceful.

Looking at Ling Yi'er's rare tranquil mood, it is estimated that this girl is now ethereal.

When he saw Lingyi'er again after an interval of two or three months, he suddenly felt that the little dragon girl in front of him was more cordial than ever. Looking at her demure appearance, Xingyan couldn't help but have a smile on her face, and said:

"I didn't know before, but this Lingyi also had times when he was in a daze. ”

"Maybe I'm asleep. ”

And the waist drum-like blank jade stool that Lingyi is sitting under now, as well as the sea jade coral stone table in front of him, are quite familiar to Xingyan:

"Well, this must be the Lingyi boudoir I went to last time. It seems that this treasure of the Dragon Palace is really amazing, and it can even transmit a scene thousands of miles away!"

"I don't know if Lingyi knows I'm looking at her, maybe I'm asleep......"

Just as the young man was thinking about it, he saw that the girl who had been quietly moving seemed to suddenly notice something, and suddenly turned her face, facing the young man who was staring at her:

At this moment, Xing Yan clearly saw that the eyes of the person in the mirror were flashing with a hint of surprise, and then he stretched out his deeply locked delicate face and smiled......

This smile, which is not mixed with too much emotion, is reflected in the eyes of the young man, but it makes him feel so natural and kind.

At this time, Lingyi no longer seems to be the unattainable princess of the Dragon Palace. For Xingyan, the lotus-hearted girl in front of her is like an old friend who has not been seen for a long time, and she is smiling from the bottom of her heart.

Seeing Lingyi smiling skillfully, he naturally laughed when he woke up.

"Can this lotus transmit sound?"

The boy thought so in his heart, and he was about to say the greeting, to see if the spirit could hear it—just as he was about to say this greeting, he suddenly noticed that the face in the water was becoming blurred.

Slowly, under the helpless gaze of Xingyan, the girl in the lotus mirror gradually left only a faint shadow, and the portrait was almost unrecognizable.

In the end, in the water mirror of the heart of the jade lotus, it was like ordinary clear water, only reflecting the young man's stunned face, and he could no longer see the shadow of the spirit ripples.

At the beginning, Xingyan was still a little unwilling, and waited for a while, hoping that the image of Lingyi'er could reappear in this jade lotus. It's a pity that the lotus flowers in front of him are still calm, although the lotus heart is still crystal Ze, but there is no distant shadow.

After standing for a while, Xingyan leaned over and gently lifted the lotus flower out of the water, watching it slowly close in front of his eyes and turn into a jade lotus bud again. By this time he was already a little delirious, but he was not as surprised as he had been.

However, seeing the scene of the jade lotus closing, Xingyan's heart moved, and he put the lotus bud into the lake again - unfortunately, although the jade lotus bloomed again, there was still no abnormality in the lotus stamen.

In his heart, he couldn't help but think back to the smile he had just seen, and he didn't even know how he got back to the shore and how he climbed the "tree bed" again.

Unconsciously, the famous poem in the national style is being sung repeatedly in the heart of the young man:

"The leaves are pale, and the white dew is frost. The so-called Iraqi people are on the water side. Tracing back to it, the road is blocked and long, and tracing from it, like ...... in the middle of the water"

Somehow, this young man, who has always been content with the idle years in the mountains, has experienced some fluctuations in his heart after this episode.

Lying on the willow branch again, naturally he couldn't escape the curious questioning of the little Qiongwei. Xingyan didn't hide it, and immediately told the little girl about the Lingyi. Of course, those places that are too shocking, the young man will naturally not explain them to Qiong Wei. But even so, the little girl still listened to it with relish, and looking at the expression, it seemed that the little girl took this as an interesting story.

However, for the little girl, now in addition to Sister Xueyi, she has another "Sister Lingyi", and this harvest has made Xiao Qiongwei happy for a long time.

And when this little girl was happy, she, the only "awake brother", went through the episode just now, but she no longer had the interest of sleeping in the willows. After a while, Xingyan took Qiong Wei and Xueyi and the two of them and turned around to the Thousand Bird Cliff of Baoxia Peak.

When he was walking on this rugged mountain road, Xingyan occasionally glanced at the side of the hillside, but happened to see a young man dressed as a Taoist priest, who was in the grass on the steep hillside beside the road, constantly digging the grass, as if looking for something important. If he says that he is collecting medicine, it is not like it, because he has no medicine behind his back, and he has no medicine hoe in his hand.

"Look at this, isn't this Shangqing disciple dropping something important? This hill is so steep that if you are not careful, you will stumble and roll down the mountain—I'd better go over and help him." ”

Thinking like this in his heart, Xingyan said to the second daughter beside him, and then carefully stepped on the stone gravel on the surface of the slope, slightly climbing the winding vines in his hands, and cautiously leaned towards the Shangqing disciple.

It's just that, to the surprise of the awakening words, when he rushed to the little Taoist priest and asked the reason for the matter, he felt a little crying and laughing:

It turned out that this Shangqing disciple who was carefully searching for himself was not looking for something missing. He searched so hard, it turned out that he was actually looking for the magic weapon that might be buried in this Luofu Cave Heaven!

After a few words of greeting, he knew that this young disciple who was bent on finding a treasure was named Tian Renbao, and he was a young disciple in Zhu Mingfeng's Chongde Palace. This Tian Renbao was born with a round head and a round face, and his face was soft, and he looked kind, and his tone was very gentle when he spoke with Xingyan.

It's just that when the matter of finding the treasure was mentioned, Tian Renbao's face showed an incomparably resolute look.

Seeing that Xingyan showed a rather surprised look at what he said, this Tian Renbao told the young man what he thought in his heart. The general meaning is:

This Luofu Mountain is the world's first-class cave blessed land, and it is also the location of the first immortal cultivation sect in the world Shangqing Palace, for thousands of years, this mountain is naturally a master of the world, maybe there are often the immortals to come and go. Therefore, in this Luofu Mountain, there will definitely be the immortal treasures left by the predecessors for various reasons.

This Tian Dao brother firmly believed that as long as he searched carefully, one day he would be able to find that powerful Taoist magic weapon. At that time, without much effort, his cultivation will naturally progress by leaps and bounds, and in the future, if he goes down the mountain to eliminate the Demon Guardian Dao, with such a powerful magic weapon in his hand, those evil demons and monsters will naturally be able to catch them!

Speaking of which, Brother Tian Dao's gentle round face was already full of energy, and because of his excitement, his face was now covered with a layer of excitement, and it seemed that he had been immersed in the wonderful scene that he had imagined many times!

Seeing him like this, Xingyan couldn't help but reach out to help him, for fear that this Tian Dao brother would not notice it under the excitement, so he rolled down the hillside.

Come to think of it, Tian Renbao, who is keen on looking for treasures, spends most of his time in this uninhabited mountain, and no one talks to him for half a day. Therefore, it was not easy to wake up and come to ask, and the current imagination is really endless. And these words were said so smoothly and without hindrance, I think I must have been told by him many times in his heart.

Now, this gushing is of course for the sake of explaining to the awakening words, but to a certain extent, it is also to cheer myself up. After all, it is not easy to persist for a long time on this day.

It's just that although this Brother Tian Dao is energetic, he is a little dismissive of his idea of looking for treasure, and he always feels that this matter is a bit ethereal. Not to mention whether the real immortal treasure will be casually thrown into this barren mountain range, even if there is, it will undoubtedly be a needle in a haystack to find it in a large mountain field with a radius of 500 miles like Luofu Mountain.

Of course, according to the classics, there are many immortal weapons, even if they are buried deep underground, they have their own treasures, and the light shoots bullfights - but if this is the case, they have already been dug up. After thinking about it like this, I know that Tian Renbao's idea is too difficult to succeed. Judging from the awakening words, if you have this kind of work, it is better to concentrate on cultivation, and then you may be able to enter the Great Dao earlier.

It's just that although he was a little disappreciative in his heart, seeing the resolute look on the face of the little Taoist priest in front of him, it was not easy for him to say many disappointing words. But if you don't say it, it's like a bone in your throat, and at that moment, the young man picked some euphemistic words and expressed the difficulty of this matter to this Tian Dao brother, implying that this matter is quite impossible. It's a pity that this Tian Dao brother didn't think much of his kindness at all; after hearing the negation in his sobering words, this Shangqing disciple with a persistent surname seemed to have to argue with the young man.

Seeing this situation, Xingyan was also quite helpless, so he had to give up this ineffective exhortation.

However, even so, this master of the Sihai Hall of the Shangqing Palace, still for the sake of the personal safety of the disciples in the door, patiently reminded this little Taoist priest who was bent on finding treasures, and asked him to pay attention to the safety of his feet when looking for treasures in this steep slope and rock, so as not to be careless, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

These words, the awakening words are straightforward. Because he looked at the terrain around him, even he, a child who grew up in the mountains and wilderness, looked at this steep terrain and felt a little sad in his heart.

And this Brother Tian Dao, although he felt that the young man in front of him could not understand his own correct thoughts, he was quite frustrated in his heart, but after hearing his sincere reminder, Tian Renbao was also quite grateful in his heart and thanked him sincerely. Then, he said goodbye and searched elsewhere.

Seeing this Tian Dao brother's persistent appearance, Xingyan also had a little admiration in his heart, and then thought:

"The so-called hard work pays off, seeing this Tian Dao brother so persistent, maybe one day, he will really find that powerful magic weapon!"

"Heh~ I didn't expect that I was in the Qingmen, but there were also a lot of interesting people. ”

Thinking like this, Xingyan climbed back to the mountain road, joined the second daughter, sprinkled the laughter of the little Qiong Wei all the way, and returned to the Thousand Bird Cliff,

In this way, the idle days of reading the scriptures and teaching words, and refuting the summer are comfortable and leisurely, which really makes Xingyan happy.

It's a pity that such a leisurely day seems to be coming to an end now.

It turned out that this young hall master of the Sihai Hall suddenly received a notice from the top of the flying clouds, saying that the quarterly lecture meeting in the Shangqing Palace would be convened on the first day of the seventh month, and according to the usual procedures, he, the master of the Sihai Hall, as one of the "elders" in the Shangqing Palace, would also give lectures on the scriptures to many junior disciples of the Shangqing Palace at this lecture meeting.

And the young hall master who received the notice, when he first heard the letter, he was quite unimpressed. Let's talk about it, after all, I still read a lot of those Taoist classics, and I guess I can also explain some righteousness at the lecture meeting.

It's just that when I think about it carefully, Xingyan is in a cold sweat on his head. Because, he suddenly thought of a question: since he was a child, he has never spoken anything serious in front of everyone, let alone facing so many Shangqing disciples on such a formal occasion - you know, these Shangqing disciples are the choice of the world!

"Uh~ doesn't seem to be that bad, right? I've been teaching in this Sikaitang recently......"

Xingyan comforted himself like this, but unfortunately, after glancing at the two female disciples next to him, a childish tooth and a young age, Xingyan still couldn't help but feel a little weak in his heart. In front of his eyes, a terrible picture suddenly appeared:

In that large and magnificent lecture hall, all the people in the Shangqing Palace gathered together. And he, the master of the Sihai Hall of the Shangqing Palace, stood in front of everyone, and he should have talked eloquently, but unfortunately, under the scorching gaze of hundreds of young talents in the Shangqing Palace, he couldn't say a word.

"How's that going to be?"

More than two months after entering Luofu Mountain, the boy fell into his second "crisis......
