Chapter Twenty-Nine: Old Weng Qing Xuanzi

Before and after the half of the month, Ye Hanyan burned fish for the old man almost every day, occasionally burned some rabbit snake meat, wild vegetable flowers, etc., and did some chores by the way, anyway, Ye Hanyan served the old man like a servant, but Ye Hanyan did not complain at all, his grandfather and mother were not allowed to do anything at home before, Ye Hanyan lived extremely fulfilled these days, and he also felt the hardships of his grandfather and mother, and was grateful to the old man in his heart.

These days, his body has recovered a lot, and his cooking skills have improved rapidly, and the old man is not disgusted, and occasionally says a word or two and buries himself in eating meat and drinking soup, but Ye Hanyan is strange that he never talks to Ye Hanyan much, and asks where he can go out of the valley to find his companions, and the old man asks him to find the road to the valley by himself, Ye Hanyan looks for it, and finds that there are cliffs on all sides, and unless the sword flies out, he can't climb out at all.

Ye Hanyan inquired about the whereabouts of Xu Chenfeng and Hua Xiaoqi many times, but the old man only said that he didn't know, and asked himself how he came here, the old man was even more surprised, and asked rhetorically, how did you come by yourself, don't you know? Seeing Ye Hanyan practicing Taoism, he was not surprised, which made Ye Hanyan confused.

On this day, after Ye Hanyan practiced, he calculated in his heart that he should have been in this valley for more than a month, and he was originally attracted by this fairyland, but he slowly lost his patience, and he couldn't get out at all, let alone look for Xu Chenfeng and the others, and he was worried that the two of them would not be able to escape from the pursuit of Wu Liang and others on this snow, and he didn't know what to do, so he was very anxious.

Ye Hanyan sat in front of the door, and saw the old man sitting by the lake fishing from a distance, he is also a person who likes to be quiet, this fishing is a test of people's understanding, patience, and mood, Ye Hanyan can not see it in the distance, this is not along the path to the old man, there is still a distance of three feet, the old man stretched out his hand to signal not to step lighter, and came in his ears, "You are lighter, there is a big guy in the next interview" The speaker has no intention, the listener has a heart, Ye Hanyan was shocked, he saw the old man speak, his lips up and down, but no sound spread in this space, but only in his own ears, this is not a sigh, Ye Hanyan seems to know this old man today, what kind of means is this, so magical.

tiptoed behind the old man, found a position and squatted down, but he didn't find the fish float for a while, the old man glanced back at Ye Hanyan and didn't speak. Ye Hanyan was about to flatter a few words, when he heard the old man laugh, stood up, the fishing rod in his hand had become an arc, and there was a grunt under the water, turning out a burst of blisters, and he saw that the white fishing line was constantly spinning, and a fish tail was turned out with a bang, which was about half a foot wide, glowing with dazzling gold, showing that it was a big fish on the hook.

"Haha, wait for you for three days, today I finally took the bait" The old man took three steps back, came to Ye Hanyan and stood still, holding the rod with both hands, the fishing rod trembled violently, as if there was a thousand catties of power, this fish is really powerful, only dragging the old man forward, the old man used his hands hard, straight into the water, the water depth reached his waist before he stood still, the splash on the surface of the water was not flooding, forming a whirlpool, and spreading quickly.

"Well, it's still a golden little fish king, you have a mouth" This was obviously said to Ye Hanyan on the shore, Ye Hanyan heard that there was still a little fish king, and he was surprised in his heart, came to the water's edge, stared at the water, but he didn't dare to disturb loudly, the old man had a strange temperament, and he was afraid that he would not anger the old man.

The two fell into a stalemate, slowly subsided, and the underwater little fish king kept spinning, and it seemed impossible for the old man to pull it up all at once. After half a cup of tea, the trembling of the fishing rod weakened significantly, and the old man retreated to the shore little by little, and retreated three steps behind Ye Hanyan before stopping.

"Look at you, or am I good" The old man was in a happy mood and talked a little more, "Boy, do you know how big this little fish king is?"

"I didn't see this senior, how do I know" Ye Hanyan saw that the old man was happy, and he also joked,

"So let you guess" The old man asked again, Ye Hanyan replied after thinking about it, "I think it's two feet long and weighs about three catties."

"Haha, it seems that you have eaten fish for nothing these days, but it's still not right, guess again"

"Three feet long and weighs about five pounds"

"Well, it's a bit like that, let me tell you" The old man laughed, and as soon as he shook the fishing rod in his hand, he saw a touch of gold flying ashore, quickly sinking into the fishing basket, and revealing a tail outside.

Just when the fish entered the fish basket, the old man's voice came, "The fish is two feet eight inches long, and the fish weighs four catties and four taels and seven dollars."

Ye Hanyan saw that the old man said so carefully, he couldn't believe it, he came over and grabbed the fishtail, held it in his hand, and measured it to the length that the old man said.

"Haha, guess again, how many years is this the king of fish?" The old man looked happy, and did not forget to tease again,

"Fifty years" Ye Hanyan thought to himself how long a fish could last, and he was very suspicious of fifty years of fish.

"Less," the old man replied without even thinking about it,

"Eighty Years"

"Less"

"One Hundred Years"

"Less"

"One Hundred and Fifty Years"

"Less"

"Senior, don't say that this fish is two hundred years old"

"Hehe, boy, you can't guess, I'll tell you" The old man handed the fishing rod to Ye Hanyan, put his hands on his back, turned around and walked back, Ye Hanyan took the fishing rod, picked up the fishing basket and followed behind the old man.

This fish is a special species, not an ordinary flat fish, not a carp, flat body, head like carp, tail like crucian carp, but the fins are like perch, it is unique in this lake, related to the water quality and water temperature, there is almost no other place, the old man called the golden flat fish, the fish mouth of six fish whiskers, the age of this fish depends on the thickness of the fish whiskers, this fish is not like other ordinary fish can only have a full stomach, for injured people like Ye Hanyan has a special effect, there is a cold and moisturizing lungs, blood and tendons, warm and nourishing the body, no wonder Ye Hanyan feels that eating this golden flat fish every day his injury has improved a lot, and it will be completely better in a month。

Fish whiskers such as embroidery needles are within 100 years, and then the thickness of about two embroidery needles is more than 100 years long, like this tail of a chopstick long and thick is more than 800 years, more than 500 years is very rare, can be called the king of fish, that is simply a god-given healing decoction, no wonder the old man is so happy.

When Ye Hanyan heard that this fish was more than eight hundred years old, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, only to feel that his mouth and tongue were dry, and he couldn't believe it, "Isn't that going to become a demon?"

"Hehe, boy, it's too early for this fish to become a demon" The old man smiled, in a very good mood, "This little fish king is only about eight hundred years old, if it reaches two thousand years, it may be able to cultivate into a demon"

"Is there really a fish cultivating into a demon?" Ye Hanyan felt incredible, fish demon?

"Yes, there is one in this lake," replied the old man casually.

"Ah, no, no, no" Ye Hanyan stammered for a while, took two steps quickly and followed behind the old man, the old man looked at him with a smile, shook his head and said nothing.

When the two came to the house, the old man still threw the fish to Ye Hanyan as before, but this time he told him that this little fish king could not make soup, but should be steamed, and the time should not be too long, half a column of incense shorter than the usual steaming time, because the fish meat is tender and full of energy, and the loss of medicinal effect will be caused by too long, and the gain outweighs the loss.

After listening to the old man's instructions, Ye Hanyan didn't move for a while, and the old man was also strange, "What's wrong, don't you want to eat?" The old man asked, Ye Hanyan nodded lightly, and he really couldn't bear to eat this flat fish like this, and replied, "Senior, according to what you always said, this fish also has more than eight hundred years of time limit, if I slaughter and eat it, it will be in vain to spend these eight hundred years of lonely practice, but because of this time greed lost his life, isn't it a pity, or spare his life, I can't say that after a thousand years, this fish is grateful to repay the seniors for their release, how beautiful?"

Ye Hanyan talked eloquently, this was the most conversation he had with the old man in the past month, and it was also the only time that he was uneasy about the old man's intentions. The old man's face was full of surprise, turned gloomy, and said, "Then what do you tell the old man to eat today?"

"Senior, don't worry, I'll go to the vegetables now, I left a rabbit leg yesterday, and I'll make it for you at that time" Ye Hanyan didn't wait for the old man to speak, picked up the fish basket and flew to the lake, took the fish out of it, put it in the water, pushed it forward, watched the fish's tail swing, and wanted to swim away, and said in his mouth, "Let's go, don't be greedy next time, practice and become enlightened as soon as possible" But what surprised him was that the fish wanted to leave, but when he heard Ye Hanyan say this, he played a few times in the same place, and then reversed a few times, and then swam away.

Ye Hanyan smiled lightly, his heart was happy, he picked up the fish basket and found edible flowers and wild vegetables on the cliff by the lake, there are many kinds of flowers here, there are many kinds of wild vegetables, and there are many fruits.

Ye Hanyan was frightened, he had never seen such a large piece of gold appear in the lake when he came here, if it was really as the old man said, then this piece of gold might be the fish demon, with the fish basket on his back, he trotted all the way back, and saw the old man standing at the door with a gloomy face, staring at the place where the huge wave appeared just now.

"You have caused a good thing" The old man saw Ye Hanyan coming back, and said coldly, the old man looked at it for a while, then turned around and went back to the house, leaving a sentence, "Let's talk today"

Ye Hanyan got everything right, the old man sat down to eat with Ye Hanyan, as if he remembered something, got up and went back to the house, and took out a wine jar, Ye Hanyan couldn't figure out the wine brought from this place, but immediately stood up and poured a bowl for the old man.

"You also drink a bowl" The old man commanded undoubtedly, Ye Hanyan had no choice but to pour himself a bowl, "dry" The old man drank it as soon as he picked it up, drank it up twice, Ye Hanyan was full again, and he was sitting on the side, waiting for the old man to speak, because before the meal, the old man said that he wanted to talk to him, in fact, he couldn't wait in his heart, he had too many doubts to confirm with the old man.

Seeing that the old man has not spoken, he doesn't know where to start, but after coming here for so long, the old man has never said what his name is, although he took the initiative to inform the old man of his name, but he has always been called a boy, and he never opened his mouth to officially call his name, thinking of this, Ye Hanyan understood, this is to Ye Hanyan start by himself, so that he can continue to talk.

Ye Hanyan stood up, hugged his fists and bowed deeply, bowed down and said, "Boy Ye Hanyan, meet the seniors, please ask the seniors to solve the doubts for the younger children" The old man's eyes flashed, he nodded, the corners of his mouth smiled, he took a sip of wine, ate a mouthful of food, and then wiped his beard, and said half-loudly,

"Boy, get up, sit down and talk while eating"

Ye Hanyan stood up straight and sat down, but he didn't eat, but sat upright, waiting for the old man to solve his doubts.

"The old man Qing Xuanzi, is the fourth generation of Xin Qing Dao" The old man reported his family, Xin Qing Dao is now the sixth generation, and the head of the Tao is his grandson.

Ye Hanyan didn't expect the old man to be so big, he got up and fell to the ground, "The kid doesn't know the identity of his seniors, thank his seniors for saving him, and hope to forgive his sins if he is rude,"

"Get up, get up, I didn't plan to tell you at the beginning, just a temptation, look at you kid" Qing Xuanzi said in a warm voice, Ye Hanyan stood up and returned to the table and sat down.

"The seniors are masters, the dragon sees the tail and doesn't see the head, how can it be in this Xuefeng Valley, it's really fortunate to let the juniors meet" Ye Hanyan didn't dare to pretend at all, this kind of strange person, he has heard very little, let alone met, the most powerful in his heart and what he is most grateful for is the ruthless, and the second thing he is interested in is the wine fairy Li Muzi, and then he thinks about it, this Li Muzi and this old-timer are afraid that it has a lot to do with it.

"Alas" Qing Xuanzi sighed lightly, shook his head and said, "It's a long story, let's talk about it then, but you surprised me a lot" The words turned to his head, Ye Hanyan chuckled in his heart, knowing that he couldn't hide, this kind of old monster was profound, he must have seen something, but at this time, Ye Hanyan was not in a hurry, waiting for Qing Xuanzi to break it, make up his mind, and say what he said.

Qing Xuanzi saw that Ye Hanyan's face did not change, his heart did not breathe, and he didn't care about his wind and waves, and I felt like I was sitting alone outside the square, nodded and smiled, and said, "You were injured by two sword wounds, but it was to save people at the same time, and then someone gave you the pill but it didn't work, so he gave you Huoyang Fruit again, aiming to save people, I don't want this fruit to be too strong, so that the meridians of your whole body skyrocket, and you have been in a coma for more than a month" Qing Xuanzi said slowly,

When Ye Hanyan heard this, he was shocked in his heart, what was going on?

"Ahh
