Zhao Ⅰ·Bu Weiyue

Ye Shangshu felt aggrieved and said, "Senior Wang, why did you curse me like that?"

Meng Siwei said: "Brother, there must be a reason for the incident. I'll go right away." After speaking, he ran away.

Wang Qingming nodded in satisfaction, and dragged Ye Shangshu into the house.After opening the door, Chen Huan, who was supposed to be waiting for his friend to come back with a sullen face, had already fallen asleep lying on the table with his arm under his pillow.Wang Qingming took a closer look at him, and also smelled the sweet and soft aroma of wine, and suddenly thought "he is so cute" in his heart.Shaking his head, a velvet cloak appeared in his hand, and he relaxed his hands and feet to cover it for him. "In the morning you said I was sleepy, but in a blink of an eye you couldn't bear it." Wang Qingming laughed from the bottom of his heart, seeing the empty wine jar out of the corner of his eye, he immediately understood.Although the Fenjiu was not very strong, it was reasonable for him to drink a catty after he came and went for a while, and he passed out drunk.

He tucked the cloak around his neck so that he would not catch a cold in the world.Just as he was about to withdraw his hand, he felt a pain in his wrist being grabbed.The troubled right wrist, after Goshawk Lie Yuzhu, was grasped by Quechen for real.

"So my friend is still awake." Wang Qingming said with a smile.While thinking, it's over, it's over, this is really drunk.Why didn't he stop it, and he didn't restrain himself.Shangshu is next to him, or let him wait next door?

But Chen Huan looked at him directly, without saying a word, very quiet.Ye Shangshu looked at the two people, looked at the overturned wine cup, suddenly felt a little hungry, and there were some snacks on the table, so he found a place to sit down, ate happily, stuffed several kinds of pastries in his mouth, His eyes lingered on the two of them, although he didn't know what kind of plot it was, he murmured vaguely: "Senior brother, don't worry about me, I'll fill my stomach."

Wang Qingming was about to speak, but Chen Huan suddenly stood up, pushed Wang Qingming against the wall with his palm.

Wang Qingming: "!!!"

Ye Shangshu: "???"

Not feeling well.But there is no seriousness in the attack in the world, I don't know if he recognizes him or not.Wang Qingming rubbed his wrist that finally got rid of the confinement, and wanted to leave.I saw Quechenhuan turned his right hand, and the famous sword Yingxuanxu Yao Sanqing Baihua burst out.

Wang Qingming: "???"

Ye Shangshu: "!!!"

But Chenhuan held a sharp sword in his hand, striding forward, before he could react, he came up to Wang Qingming, raised Ying Xuanxu, condensed white light, and stabbed straight ahead like thunder and lightning.

"Senior brother!" Ye Shangshu tried his best to stop the unexpected move, but he couldn't follow it.

Wang Qingming didn't dodge or dodge, Ying Xuanxu had half of his body buried into the wall and stuck to his ear.

But Chen Huan: "..."

"Friend?"

But Chen Huan gestured for him to stay still. "listen."

Wang Qingming asked: "Listen to what?"

But Chen Huan frowned slightly, as if a little angry: "Sound of sword."

Wang Qingming thought it was funny and was about to speak.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open vigorously, and the two people who were stalemate by the door frame naturally couldn't escape their fate. The door panel slammed into the back of Que Chenhan's head, and Que Chenchen's reaction was a little slow after drinking, so he couldn't dodge and took a blow.He was slightly taller than Wang Qingming, but the action of restraining the latter just now made him bend a little bit, and at this moment his body was not stable, and his forehead directly hit Wang Qingming's.

pain.Forget Qingming thought of it.

Who opened the door?Besides Meng Siwei, who else would break in at this time.This person complained about his classmates' rampage a moment ago, but now he immediately slapped him in the face, and he ran around in a hurry. "Brother Wang, the person you are looking for has gone wandering around!...Eh? Brother isn't there?" Meng Siwei looked around, but there was no one except Ye Shangshu who was standing by the table with a stunned expression.

Through the sword, Wang Qingming reached out and pushed the door panel open.Meng Siwei heard the sound behind him, and saw the two people were standing by the frame, their postures were a bit weird.Suddenly understood something.

"It really isn't here." Sighing lightly, Wang Qingming stuck his head out from Quechen Huan's shoulder, and said, "Now Shangshu is full, and Siwei is not cold after running around, let's go to rest quickly." .”

Ye Shangshu saw that nothing was wrong, so he relaxed and touched two pieces of jade belt cake from the plate, took a few bites and chewed in his mouth, said: "No, I'm not full yet, wait..."

"I can't sleep after eating too much at night!" Meng Siwei said, took two plates of snacks and stuffed them into Ye Shangshu's arms, and then pulled him outside.Not listening to what he was saying, Ulu Ulu, hurriedly backed out, and closed the door by the way.

Wang Qingming: "..."

But the mortal world is too close.Wang Qingming reached out and patted his shoulder, as if to comfort him.But the mortal loves cleanliness very much. After running around all day today, I must have sweated, and it was sticky and uncomfortable.Thinking of this, he said softly: "My friend, let Xiaosheng go first, and Xiaosheng can fetch hot water for you to wash, okay?"

He felt the persuasive tone was familiar, and he recalled it after thinking for a while. Once he was accused of raising a six-year-old child. The child was a son of a small family. He was very stubborn. It takes a lot of work.Later, when the baby became sensible and experienced enough, he was taken home.Speaking of which, what's the name of the little boy?

He was distracted for a moment, and was brought back to his thoughts by the sound of drawing the sword.But Chen Huan put the sword back into its sheath, with an unhappy expression on his face.No, my friend obviously has a facial nerve disorder, how did I see that he was unhappy.Seeing his aggrieved and unwilling appearance, Wang Qingming laughed out loud. "Where did that great Taoist who opened the sword array to split the center of the earth go?"

But Chen Huan backed away with a cold snort, and went to sleep on the couch.The shoes are not taken off, the clothes are not faded, and the hair crown is not removed.Wang Qingming was stunned for a while, then followed him to unload his shoes and socks, and dragged the quilt to cover him.But Chen Huan breathed steadily and remained motionless, as if he had really fallen asleep.

Wang Qingming felt that the room was a bit stuffy.After opening a small window, I turned off the light, and went out by myself to enjoy the air.At this time, all the lights in Tongxuan Xiaozhu were extinguished.There was a quiet wind blowing in the quiet courtyard, Wang Qingming thought about it, and turned out a lantern to illuminate it, and left the courtyard.

Forget what kind of person Qingming is?He has no intention of being famous in the world, nor does he have any pursuit of the pinnacle of martial arts; if people do not offend me, I will not offend them, if people offend me, I will be courteous, and if they offend me again, I will kill them.All in all, he thinks he is not an active character, and his great wisdom is to be free and easy.But now it seems that he is not complacent.

He didn't like the dull feeling of pressing things in his heart.After walking a few steps, I fell into sinking again.

At the corner, where he almost hit the plain wall during the day, Wang Qingming stopped.Even turn off the lights in your hands.

On the path on the right, a beautiful figure is reflected on the bluestone, slowly turning into a courtyard.

Pull Ling Ji?Why did you come back from abroad so late?Lord Lanling shouldn't have kept her for so long.Wang Qingming noticed that the Qingling fluttering bells that accompanied her to bewitch Wansheng in the past had been picked off one by one.

The next day, Wang Qingming felt that his arms were numb from the pressure, he turned over and struggled a few times, and finally lost all sleepiness and woke up from the table.A soft cloak slipped off his shoulders, fell to the ground, and was picked up patiently.

But Chen Huan saw that his consciousness was clear, and asked, "Why are you sleeping here?"

Wang Qingming moved his numb arms, first glanced at the window - it was closed, and then said: "I was a little tired after walking last night. I was lazy and didn't take off my clothes. I will fall asleep soon." He didn't remember hugging the window. He came back with some thoughts, but when he saw the decent sleeping position of the Taoist priest on the couch, he decided to make his friend sleep more comfortably.After all, this is the first time in the world--let yourself go?

But Chen Huan sized him up and felt that it was his fault.After a long silence, I asked, "I drank last night... Did I hurt you?"

It turned out that he saw the cracks on the wall, looking at the crisp and clean marks, it was obviously damaged by his Ying Xuanxu.Wang Qingming shook his head.He tidied up his clothes casually, and told the whole story, but his face was a little gloomy.

"Hey friend, don't worry, Xiaosheng won't say anything." Although Siwei and Shangshu were also present.

But Chen Huan said: "I'm just afraid that you will get hurt."

"Although my friend is drunk and unconscious, he has never done anything to hurt Xiaosheng." Wang Qingming said with a smile.

After Wang Qingming finished washing, at this moment, the wooden door knocked lightly twice.Meng Siwei's voice came from outside: "Brother Wang, but senior. It's already three quarters of the hour, are you awake?"

Wang Qingming was a little surprised, looking at his friend clearly asking: It's so late?

But Chen Huan went to open the door, and it was Meng Siwei who brought the food box to deliver the breakfast.The sun suddenly poured in, and it was so painful that Qingming couldn't help squinting his eyes.

"Thank you." But Chen Huan said.

Meng Siwei smiled coyly, and was called by Ye Shangshu to do the laundry.

As of yesterday, the Hundred Families Council had also officially ended, and each Patriarch led a group of elites to bid farewell to each other.But Chenhuan went to Chibi first, and Wang Qingming had to follow Tongxuan to have some courtesy with the other family.After all, on the surface, he is the direct disciple of the Patriarch Tongxuannan.

Wang Qingming glanced at the crowd, Luoshen was not there.The yin and yang "five yuan" only came to guide the passer-by, Lingji, who was teasing Lord Lanling at this time.It is not so much that she is very interested in Lord Lanling, it is better to say that it is the exchange of experience between the two storybook pillars.I don't know where Lord Jiuxiang went, but where there are many people, he must be absent.Wang Qingming kept glancing at Duan Feiyuan from the corner of his eye, and now there seemed to be nothing wrong with him.

It wasn't until Yingchuan bustled away that Wang Qingming chose a good horse and went to the wilderness.Yingchuan is in the northeast of the Zhongzhou territory, and it is quite far from Manhuang.Until the 24th of the first lunar month, he finally entered the barren land.

Wang Qingming found a nice-looking restaurant in Kudu, and found a seat to sit down.The business in the building is very good, and there are many drinkers.Those who make drinking orders, those who raise their glasses to enjoy themselves, and those who talk eloquently.There were seven or eight young people sitting around the adjacent table, and one of them was excited and stepped on the table, talking excitedly.

There is a set of tea sets on every table in the building, as well as tea, Wang Qingming sees that Xiaoer is still busy, so he pours himself a cup to quench his thirst.The water quality is clear, and it seems that the wild water source problem has been temporarily solved.Wang Qingming calmed down and listened, although the story told by the man should be exaggerated, but what he was talking about was the Eternal Day Sand Sea in the west of Kudu, which was darkened.

When the second brother came over, it was about a quarter of an hour after he was here.The neighbor next door was still boasting, so Wang Qingming asked Xiao Er for a room, as well as some food and drinks.

Seeing that he was going to leave, Wang Qingming reached out to hold him, and gave him some extra coins: "Little brother, don't rush to leave, I'm here for the first time, I'm not very familiar with it, can you please stay for a while."

Xiao Er was naturally happy when he saw that he was generous in his moves and that he was dressed in an extraordinary manner.Called a person to hand over the work, and leaned over to him, politely asked him what he wanted to know.

Wang Qingming poured him a glass of water and asked him to sit down. Wen Ru said: "The 'Eternal Day Sand Sea' that Mr. Table said is very spectacular and sacred. I am very interested. I wanted to go and see it. It’s a miracle, and I heard that Shahai Guangming is not there. I wonder if the second brother can know the details?”

Xiaoer had been working all day and had no time to rest, his mouth was dry, so he took a glass of water from Qingming, and gulped it down.Wang Qingming poured another glass for him, and heard him say: "The guest officer is indeed a newcomer. We have nothing else in the wild, but there are many miracles."

"Oh?" Wang Qingming pretended to question.

Seeing his disbelieving expression, Xiao Er suddenly became energetic and vowed to impress and amaze the stranger. "The Kudu Sand Sea is named 'Eternal Day' because there is a sun that never sets."

"As the stars move, the laws of nature. No matter how good Hua Xi is, he can't escape the setting sun. 'The sun that never sets' means that there will be a light like a golden crow in the sand sea at night, isn't it?"

Nodding his head, he said: "The light that shines from the ground is dazzling, majestic, and boundless, as if it has buried the entire sun. But just a few days ago, the golden light of the sand sea disappeared, and even the 'Elf Tree' disappeared. Withered. There was a dark rumor in Kudu that it was the barbarian king who had no way, and the gods took back the glory of the sand sea as a warning."

Wang Qingming thought of the barbarian king who oppressed the mountains and rivers he saw a few months ago, the word "no way" really doesn't fit him.Without saying that, he said: "It's so... well, what is an Elf tree? Why did the light of the sand sea suddenly disappear?"

Xiaoer said: "Guest officer, if you came ten days and a half months earlier and saw the gilded trunk and glowing leaves, you would know how suitable the word 'elf' is. There is another story about this sacred tree. It has been said for a long time Before, the sand sea was not a 'sand sea', but a 'spring sea'. The scene of peace is naturally Minxi Wufu and Su Hong Guanxi. In order to seek eternal happiness, a grand 'execution of sacrifices' is held every year in the country of Quanhai Will', select three hundred sinful people by lottery, and kill them as a sacrifice to the gods."

"Since it's the 'Execution Society', how could it be murder? Or be convicted in such a rough way as drawing lots? It's absurd and cruel." Wang Qingming said.

Xiaoer said: "It is indeed absurd and cruel, but most members of the royal family enjoy it, and this backward and tyrannical custom, only the noble priests of the country have the right to change. The selection of priests is extremely cruel. The surviving women can have extremely high power, and can even influence the decision-making of the country's lord. However, such a person is often rare, and the post of priest is often vacant. At that time, there was a princess in the royal family who could not bear the suffering of the people , repeatedly begged her father to cancel this terrible event, but was repeatedly rejected. She decided to try the Nili torture, but unfortunately she was seriously injured and unconscious when she was subjected to the second test. After waking up, she asked to continue. The king In the end, she couldn't bear it, so she had to be temporarily sent to a Buddhist temple to calm her down. The princess in a foreign land was still suffering day and night for the people, and it was also during this time that she met a monk, the 'Buddha trail'."

Served.Forgot to drink two glasses of wine.Xiao Er was already hungry, seeing that Wang Qingming wanted to invite him to dinner, he hurriedly thanked him, took a bite of hot food, and began to tell stories even more vigorously. "The monk 'Buddha trace' is dumb. He couldn't comfort the princess with words, so he had to accompany him every day. And after a month of getting along, they both fell in love. After that, it was the old routine. The second year's 'Execution' At the Sacrificial Sacrifice Meeting', the Lord designed and selected the 'Buddha Trail' who came to preach. The princess who heard the news was begging to be useless, so she had to go to the mud again, but when she really survived the [-]th sentence, the 'Buddha Trail' was dead. The body was thrown on the wilderness, and the wind and rain raged. The grieving princess buried him, planted Bodhi seeds in front of his tomb, and watered them with tears, year after year. When the princess died, the last drop of tears fell, and Bodhi grew instantly. A towering tree, bathed in golden light. Feeling the princess's death, the bodhi tree shed all its branches and leaves in one breath, connecting her with the 'Buddha trail'."

Wang Qingming said: "There is a way in the world, so martyr yourself with the way; there is no way in the world, so martyr yourself. The courage and righteousness of Princess Quanhai is awe-inspiring. Hearing her ending also makes me mourn and bitter."

Xiao Er sighed: "Later, the sea of ​​springs disappeared, leaving only this sacred tree. It finally became luxuriant, but it disappeared overnight. The roots of the elf tree penetrated three thousand feet deep into the ground. I think the light under the ground may be It’s because the roots of the trees are intertwined. Who knows, the sea of ​​sand can’t be dug.”

Wang Qingming thought for a while, and then said: "This restaurant nominates 'Best Ultimate Building', and 'Best Ultimate' is one of the three Bodhisattvas. The role of enlightenment in educating all living beings, together with 'truth' and 'truth wisdom' are the 'Three Virtues'. '. If you want to come to this building, there is also a Buddha's fate. I don't know which holy monk it is?"

Xiao Er listened to the question, scratched his head, thought for a long time, and finally had a flash of inspiration: "It seems to be some kind of dream... Oh! I remembered, it was a Zen dream, knocking on Lingshan!"

The author has something to say:

① Zen Tan Yi Meng · Knocking on Lingshan: The title of the poem is "The origin of the cause and the end of the relationship, the end of the relationship, the flowers bloom and fall, and the flowers return to the dust; the love is shallow and the deep love is old, people come and go, people don't return."
