Chapter 3 I heard that an old man was coming

Three months have passed, Yu Qing contemplates and practices every day on this mountain, feels the operation and changes of heaven and earth and the universe, recites scriptures and references, eats and drinks dew, and cultivates for a thousand miles in a day. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

I don't know when, there is a flower with black path and white leaves in the corner of the yard, the branches and leaves are stretched, the pavilion is like a banner, Yu Qing often serves, picks morning dew for irrigation, and sometimes meditates and recites next to it, this flower will move in a swoop, such as human nature.

On this day, the sky was clear, the sun was mild, and a man in white came at the foot of the mountain.

The boy in white is handsome, holding a folding fan, and there is a picture of a lady stepping into the green, which is even more chic and chic.

The man in white looked up, his gaze seemed to penetrate the hidden grass and trees, and looked at the courtyard on the mountainside. After a while, he frowned, as if he didn't understand, and then he didn't know what he thought, and he was relieved again, and walked along the stone path to the mountain.

In the courtyard, Yu Qing was tending to the white flowers, and suddenly his hand paused, so he got up and went to the waterhole in the bamboo forest to fill a pot of water and came back.

The boy in white walked along the stone path, and was not in a hurry to go up the mountain, enjoying the beautiful scenery along the way, and occasionally encountering birds and beasts passing by, he would stop there to watch for a while. It took a short section of the mountain road to reach the front of the courtyard after walking for more than half an hour.

The yard is surrounded by a fence made of green bamboo, and it is covered with green vines, and some small flying insects are flying around. The courtyard was empty, and the man in white didn't knock on the door to ask anyone, but gently pushed open the door and walked in.

In the courtyard was an old willow tree, with jagged bark and luxuriant foliage, which looked a little old. Under the tree is a stone table, two stone benches, and a small stone stove on the table is lit by a fire, and a stone pot is placed on the stove, at this time the stone pot makes a slight noise, and some water vapor is steaming.

"Smell the old people coming, specially prepare a cup of tea, to treat the guests. ”

On the stone bench sat a young man, with a delicate face, dressed in a feather robe, and his hair was tied with a wooden hairpin. Seeing the man in white walking into the courtyard, Yu Qing spoke.

The man in white did not shirk, folded the fan, and sat down.

"Little Taoist, this deep mountain Daze, there are many demons, you live here alone, aren't you afraid that the mountain spirits and the like will eat you?"

The man in white asked, staring at Yu Qing, smiling rather than smiling.

"Childe said and laughed, this mountain is not high, not big, not dangerous, not spiritual, where is there any mountain spirit and wood, besides, I have been practicing with the master since I was a child, and the demons who are waiting for leisure are not afraid of him. ”

At this time, the tea on the stove has been boiled three times, the waves are drumming, and the momentum is like a rushing wave splashing foam, Yu Qing poured the boiling water scooped out when the side was just boiling twice, saving the boiling Yuhua, and suddenly the aroma was overflowing, refreshing people's hearts.

"Oh, your tea-making technique is very good, I don't know where you learned it, can you teach me?" The white-clothed man's nose moved, and he was greatly surprised.

"I have never traveled to the hundred countries of Xuanzhou, but the Fufeng country is thousands of miles away, and there are thirty-six ghost cities and demon mansions, and there are many strange people, and I have never seen such a subtle art of making tea, little Taoist, I have some faith in your words of making tea and hospitality. ”

Yu Qing flicked his fingers, the flame in the stone furnace suddenly became smaller, picked up the stone pot, took out two stone cups, poured two cups of tea, between the clouds and mist, the feather sleeves were lightly raised, ethereal like a fairy man.

"This method of making tea, I also got it unintentionally, it was created by a tea sanctuary named Lu Yu, the process is complicated, and I haven't done it. There are three boils, and there are fine beads on the surface of the water such as fish eyes, and there is a slight sound, which is one boiling; When the water on the side of the pot is like a spring, it is a second boil, at this time, a little water should be scooped out for later use, whipped in the center of the pot with a bamboo clip, and then the tea powder is poured into it from the center; Later, the tea in the pot is boiling like a wave, the momentum is like a rushing wave, it is three boiling, at this time, the scoop of water that has just been scooped out is poured into the pot again, which is called saving the boiling Yuhua, and it is considered to be boiled at this time. What is particular about a water old man who does not eat, and is spiritually pregnant. ”

"There is an old tea tree on the top of this mountain, absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon of the mountain and river aura, evergreen, I pick its tea leaves on the day of frost, at this time the spirituality is the best, after drying, steaming and roasting, grinding into powder and sealing, and then taking it out when drinking. He also took the mountains and rivers of the stone pond behind the house and boiled them with a spiritual fire to have such a taste. ”

Yu Qing raised his right hand lightly and motioned for the man in white to drink tea.

The man in white took a sip of tea, the entrance was slightly bitter, and then slightly sweet, and then the aftertaste, sweet and pleasant, and the five organs were comfortable.

"What a spiritual pregnancy! What a cup of tea!" The man in white couldn't help but praise the stone.

"This tea has obtained the three flavors of the Tao, which is deeply in line with the truth of heaven and earth, and is worthy of being the great sage in tea. ”

The man in white took another sip, closed his eyes and savored it for a long time.

"Little Taoist, you said that you practice with the master, it is best for me to ask the immortal to ask for a visit to the stranger in my life, I don't know where the respected master is, can I meet one or two. The man in white seemed to be still immersed in the tea, and said casually.

"Oh, but Childe is unlucky, the Venerable Master went out to visit friends a few months ago, I don't know what big demon monster I encountered, he was seriously injured, and he went away soon after he came back. Yu Qing's face was sad, and he said with a smile.

"Little Taoist priests don't have to be sad, cultivators have their own destiny, this life has fallen, maybe there will be another opportunity in the next life, and it is not possible to embark on the path again. ”

The man in white comforted softly, and glanced vaguely at the bamboo forest behind the courtyard.

Yu Qing was silent, and the white-clothed boy seemed a little bored, and asked, "Little Daoist, have you ever heard that a major event has happened recently that shocked the Fufeng Country?"

"I have been practicing in the mountains for many years, and I have never come down from the mountains, and I have never heard of anything important. Yu Qing replied, and the white flowers and leaves next to him spread out, dancing like flags.

"Things have to start from the beginning, here to the north five thousand miles, there is a mountain, called Longshou Mountain, there is a big lake between the surrounding mountains, the shape is like the dragon's head, according to legend, it is a dragon fell and smashed out in ancient times. The dragon fights in the wild, crying blood and Xuanhuang, and there are many spiritual plants and trees here, among which there is a kind of dragon blood Zhuyu, which is a rare elixir. ”

The eyes of the man in white were a little misty, as if he was immersed in a long memory.

"Somewhere in Longshou Mountain, there is a dragon blood wishing Yu to survive, there is a golden snake nearby, growing day by day, nourished by the aura, irrigated by the moon, and just escaped the hunting of many birds and beasts, over time, I don't know when it began, this golden snake is no longer afraid of cold and heat, and no longer knows how to catch birds and swallow rats, it began to think, began to fear life. ”

"Finally, one day, the golden snake witnessed Dapeng spreading its wings and rolling up the mountains and rivers, it realized, opened the spiritual platform, became a demon, a snake demon, and gave itself a name, called the Golden Elephant Truth. ”

The white-clothed man's voice was slightly low, and he didn't know if he was afraid of waking himself up.

"I know that it is very difficult for the human body to open the spirit, and I have never heard of the same as the demon body and the soul. Yu Qing also sank into it unconsciously, and spoke.

The man in white laughed, opened the folding fan with a brush, and said: "The human body is born with a Taoist body, accepting the essence of the sun and the moon, pregnant with changes in the universe, and is blessed with unique blessings. The world of demons, no matter how whitewashed, is ultimately respected by strength, and the weak eat the strong, which is not as stable and prosperous as the world. ”

"My demon clan also has a great sage, and he has done edification, but until now, it is not like this, you eat me, I eat you. ”

"Little Taoist, if you have a chance to understand these things in the future, let's understand them carefully. The golden elephant truth opens the spirit into the Tao, cultivates hard every day, eats qi and refines the method, and has the effect of dragon blood blessings, and for hundreds of years, it has also reached the realm of holding the gods and returning the pill.

But success also wishes Yu, defeat also wishes Yu, the preciousness of dragon blood Zhu Yu, finally attracted to watch, the master of eight hundred miles of Montenegro, the demon king Montenegro is happy to have a son, and wants to use dragon blood Zhu Yu to wash the spiritual platform, so he captured the golden elephant truth, and ordered him to guard the dragon blood Zhu Yu, and then pick it when it is ripe. ”

The man in white shook the folding fan lightly and said.

"Little Taoist, do you know what happened later? About half a year ago, the dragon blood Zhu Yu was stolen, and the Black Mountain Demon King was furious and ordered the Golden Elephant Truth to be recovered. ”

The boy in white seemed to be smiling, his eyes had turned into golden vertical pupils at some point, and the lady on the folding fan in his hand danced gently, as if she was about to fly out.

Looking at the white-clothed man in front of him, or the snake demon Golden Elephant Truth, Yu Qing still looked indifferent, took a sip of the stone cup, and said, "I also have a story, I wonder if the guests want to hear it?"

――――――――――――――

Jin Xiangdi, taken from "Sword Species" kissing the fingertips, I like this character very much, so sometimes I wonder what would have happened to Jin Xiangdi if he hadn't met Tsing Yi, didn't meet Huiyan, and hadn't entered Fangcun Mountain.

Reading the book at your fingertips, there is a feeling that the world is deep and dark, but there is a glimmer of hope shining brightly, and when you read it carefully, you will feel some pain in your heart. As for me, I want to write a different golden elephant truth, a warm and free golden elephant truth.

Jin Xiangdi is a snake demon, snake is cold, mostly cunning and insidious, but Jin Xiangdi is different, he grows with the dragon's blood every day, and has sustenance in his heart, so his heart is warm, he doesn't like this cruel world, he just wants to practice quietly.

Jin Xiangdi came here to take revenge, is it really because of the order of the Black Mountain Demon King? I don't think so, the dragon blood Zhu Yu is like his relatives, if his relatives are lost, how can he not go to find it.

Actually, Jin Xiangdi still has a big drama in the future, how could I let him take an early curtain call.
