Nanling Chiang Rai has fairy roots.

At that time, Daoist Honghu traveled around the world and planted a peach tree in Qinglai Mountain in Nanling.Peach trees absorb the aura of heaven and earth, collect the essence of the sun and the moon, have thick trunks, long branches and leaves, and grow continuously until they reach the sky.

Daoist Honghu was very happy, saying that this place is the land of gods, blessed by gods, he sent his disciples to this place to cross people, the disciples took orders, and accepted disciples in Qinglai Mountain, but unfortunately, until this disciple died in the mortal world, None of the disciples became immortals, so the disciples recruited disciples and established the Chiang Rai School.

There are many disciples in Chiang Rai, and there is a Tongtian tree with a prominent reputation. When mentioning Chiang Rai, everyone knows that this is a sect of gods, and sooner or later someone will become a god.

The problem lies in this "sooner or later".

Since Chiang Rai established the religion for 500 years, no one has become a fairy, relying on this peach tree for 500 years.

Gradually, people discovered that Chiang Rai is like a donkey, but nothing more.

Zou Shanlai was born at such a time, there were only about two hundred members left in his sect, and many of them were hereditary immortal cultivators, who had no place to hang out elsewhere, so they just hung out in the school, enjoying the food and drinking spicy food, and occupying land.

Zou Shanlai has great ambitions. He has heard the story of how the Qijin faction grew from a small faction of twenty people to the number one faction in the world. He only listened to the story of Qi Jin and ignored the end. He thought it was his ability to jump to the first place, and it was just bad luck to fall from the first place.

He, Zou Shanlai, will not end up in that kind of fate, because he is Zou Shanlai.

Zou Shanlai is talented and intelligent. He joined the school at the age of six. He was lucky for the first time. He smashed the wine jar as soon as he raised his hand. His master, mother, brother, brother, sister, and sister were all dumbfounded. At the age of 12, the master told him, I can't teach you anymore, you can't teach me any more. I am strong. At the age of 17, Nan Ling said that although Chiang Rai was not very good, Zou Shan was coming soon, and he would become immortal sooner or later.

At the age of 20, Zou Shanlai did not ascend to immortality.

At the age of 23, Zou Shanlai still has not ascended to immortality.The youngest junior sister and child are both in the arms, and the youngest junior brother is also preparing to go down the mountain.

At the age of 28, Zou Shanlai still has not ascended to immortality.Not only that, there are only 20 people left in Chiang Rai, which has about [-] people.

Zou Shanlai thought optimistically, there is no problem, Qijin also started with 20 people, and there are already so few, how could it be worse?When the difference comes to an end, it must be a rise.

Facts have proved that this is far from the case. At the age of 30, Zou Shanlai did not become a fairy, and there were only five people left in Chiang Rai.

These five people are, the old woman who sweeps the floor, the dumb uncle who cooks, Zou Shanlai, Yueya, and Andan.

One day, Zou Shanlai got up at the first crow of the rooster, and rushed out with his sword in his hands. He heard the rooster dance, practiced alchemy, and went to the peach tree to pick peaches in the morning to replenish his energy.

As the sun slowly rises, Zou Shan comes to luck slowly.

Suddenly, I saw the gate, and Crescent Moon was stepping in, sweating all over her head, having practiced all morning.

Yue Ya bowed to him from a distance: "Senior brother."

As he spoke, he ran over, swept the dust off the ground, then put the sword that never recognized her seriously on the ground, and sat next to Zou Shanlai.

Crescent Moon held her chin: "Brother, today is your birthday!"

Zou Shanlai didn't think about it himself, he felt a nausea, and thought to himself that maybe he was hungry.

Yueya said: "Senior brother is standing this year!"

Zou Shanlai let go of his sword and calmed down.

Yueya said: "The younger brother is only fourteen, and he doesn't have much talent in cultivation, let me..." She scratched her head, "It's even worse, I don't even recognize the sword. Fortunately, there is a senior brother in Qingrai."

Zou Shanlai did not answer, staring at the rising sun.

Yueya said: "I'm the stupidest person in Chiang Rai. Fortunately, my brother didn't hesitate to give me advice, so I've survived until now. From now on, I will work hard with my brother!"

Zou Shanlai stared at the sun, and was blinked by the sudden light, he squinted his eyes: "You compare me to you?"

Yueya didn't understand the meaning of these words, and nodded with a smile: "I'm twenty-seven this year! How can there be women at this age who practice Taoism... Fortunately, there is a senior brother, and I am not alone."

Zou Shanlai felt nauseous again, and he couldn't help thinking whether the peach had gone bad, but his mouth was more honest: "You compare me to you?"

Zou Shan came to ask twice, but he really couldn't understand.

If he is talented, Crescent Moon is a waste.

Of course, since Yueya is a woman, Zou Shanlai didn't want to call her so rudely, so he might as well call her dull.

The difference between Zou Shanlai and Crescent Moon is cloud and mud.

The crescent moon was picked up by my uncle in the field. That night the moon had only one hook, so I named her Crescent Moon; Zou Shanlai was tapped on the forehead by Patriarch Linghui, and the name was developed by the master and uncle after three days of research.

Yueya didn't have a teacher, she just practiced sword with her uncle, the sword was taken casually in the hidden sword pavilion; the master from Zou Shan was the closest immortal in 500 years, and the sword was obtained by the uncles from the Heavenly Palace.

The crescent moon has just built the foundation, and it has been practiced until the age of 15. The golden core has just formed, and most girls are married at this time, but after all, no one cares about the crescent moon, so it has grown so long; Zou Shanlai, born with a golden core.

Although Yueya's sword is not very good, it is more than enough to dislike her. From the beginning to the present, the sword has not flashed once, let alone recognized the master, it is a piece of scrap iron.Zou Shan came and waved his sword, the sword energy resonated with his golden core, and the two became one.

Crescent...

Zou Shanlai doesn't even want to think about it, the only thing he and Yueya have in common is, perhaps, hard work.

But Zou Shan comes to work hard because he has a great mission, and Yue Yue works hard because she has nothing else to do. She is not beautiful, boring, smart, and doesn't know how to dress up and has few friends.

Zou Shanlai looked at the sun, thinking about Yueya in his mind, the more he thought about it, the more nauseated he felt, and he finally realized that it was not because of Taozi.

Crescent Moon is talking about what she saw and heard this morning with a smile. There are birds nesting in the trees, and there are horse-drawn goods on the side of the road...

Zou Shanlai wasn't listening, he was reflecting.He doesn't want to hate women, as long as it is not a crime of debauchery, misogyny is not something a man should do.But in fact, he hated Yueya from the bottom of his heart. If Yueya was a man, he could justifiably hate her.

"...Listen, she's still chattering about things on the road, can't you see that I don't care at all.

What's the matter, her sword broke the corner, this is also called practicing sword, why is she so useless?

What's going on, why is she so happy, she's 27 years old, she's 27 years old, she's done nothing, why is she so happy?

What's going on, why is her voice so high?Why is her voice so high-pitched?Why can she speak with such a high voice when she does nothing?

Her cheerful innocence makes me want to throw up. "

Yueya's voice stopped suddenly, and she looked at Zou Shanlai: "Senior brother, what's wrong with you? You look very bad..."

Zou Shanlai stared at her: "Yueya, let me ask you."

Yueya nodded hastily: "Brother, tell me."

"What do we have in common?"

Yueya said: "We are all Chiang Rai..."

"It's not this..." Zou Shanlai stretched out his finger and poked her shoulder heavily, "I mean, you and me."

Crescent Moon was swayed back by the poke, she carefully looked at her senior brother's face, and said tentatively, "We... are all desperate...?"

Zou Shanlai withdrew his hand and nodded, "I see. You don't think there is any difference between us."

Crescent Moon didn't understand, she leaned towards him with a smile.

Zou Shanlai looked at the sun and muttered to himself: "But I think we are very different. It doesn't matter to you, because you are a woman."

Yueya was stunned, with a bit of displeasure on her face: "Brother, although I am a woman, in terms of hard work..."

Complimenting the efforts of an unachieved person is like swearing.

"Shut up." Zou Shanlai gritted his teeth and said, "Shut up."

As he spoke, he stood up, hung his head, and left with his shoulders hanging.

Yue Ya had never seen her senior brother like this before, she didn't know what to do for a moment, she sat on the ground blankly holding the sword.

The old lady sweeping the floor swept over, and Yueya raised her bitter face and asked her, "Grandma, is senior brother angry with me?"

The old woman stopped and touched her head: "He's not angry with you, he hates himself."

Crescent Moon nodded half understanding.

***

The next day, Zou Shan came down the mountain to get rid of evil spirits for others. When he arrived there, he happened to meet the Nanling sect meeting. After Zou Shan came to remove the evil spirits, he also went to have a look. With the name of Chiang Rai, he was at least a respectable person. characters.

Unexpectedly, he didn't even enter the meeting door. Xiaoxiu at the door squinted his eyes and looked at him sideways: "Qing Rai? What is it? I haven't heard of it, let's go!"

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and saw the head of the Hongnan sect carrying eight big sedan chairs, he walked forward with his body bent and his buttocks pouted, almost knelt down and used it as a footstool.

Zou Shanlai was so angry that he clenched his fists and couldn't get angry, so he turned around and wanted to leave, but was stopped by someone. "Brother?"

At a glance, the head of the Hongnan sect who came down from the sedan chair was exactly his junior brother back then, but he was fat and fat from eating, so he called out to himself in surprise.

Junior brother ran over, hugged him, and sternly said to Xiaoxiu, "Bold! You have eyes but don't know Mount Tai! This is my friend, get out of the way!"

As he spoke, he dragged Zou Shan into the door.

At this time, Zou Shan came belatedly and thought, this kid didn't salute.

Hongnan is doing well, there are a few very powerful people in the faction, one of them was promoted 50 years ago, and he has gained a reputation, plus he has a good relationship with the officialdom——

"All fellow Taoists pushed me, my younger brother is not talented, so I will take over as the head." The younger brother toasted Zou Shan with a smile.

Zou Shan came to pick up the wine and drank it down. He knew that his brother's father was from Nanling Earthworks.

At today's meeting, Zou Shanlai has no seat.He stood at the end of the banquet, holding the allotted wine, and beside him were a group of miscellaneous people who came to flatter him, all of whom had familiar faces and smiled like chrysanthemums.

Zou Shan became more and more annoyed, shook his cup, turned and left.

The banquet didn't stop because of this noise, but a monk who had been unable to squeeze in from behind sneaked in and filled the vacancy left by Zou Shanlai.

Zou Shanlai walked alone with a sword on his back, and said as he walked, "There is no room for vulgarity..."

He didn't take two steps before he saw a group of people drinking together in the garden. They were excited and said something like "Immortal cultivators do dirty things, shameless!" "Dirty and filthy!" "Vulgar! Vulgar and evil!" Class words.

Zou Shan came to listen to a few words, and saw a man who took advantage of the situation and danced with a sword, and he danced so well - no wonder he was frustrated - because he had no skills.

So Zou Shanlai stopped walking towards them.

He lay down here overnight, but did not fall asleep, just staring at the moon outside the window.

Zou Shanlai, 31, has achieved nothing.

He hates everyone, naive people, hardworking people, incompetent people, frustrated people, and enlightened people, but in fact he doesn't hate anyone.

Everyone loves to hurt Zhongyong, but what should Zhongyong do?Especially Zhong Yong, who is full of ambition, self-improvement and hard work, what is wrong with him?He's 31, well past the age of thinking he's "favored".

Effort that doesn't pay off is simply... just...

"Pointless."

"Yes!" Zou Shanlai burst out.

After speaking, he suddenly realized that there was no one else in the room.He turned over, drew his sword out of its sheath, and faced the wall: "Who?! Come out!"

A puddle of liquid slowly rose up on the wall, rolling around on the wall, from one side to the other, Zou Shanlai also moved his sword and pointed it at him.

The voice was thick and powerful, and it sounded like a master with profound morals, full of wisdom and coercion, without any evil spirit.

The voice said: "Zou Shan, I have wronged you."

Zou Shan came to the sword's hand and shook it, and he said again: "You... Your Excellency, come to help me become immortal?"

The voice sounded: "I'm here to ferry you."

Zou Shanlai raised and lowered the sword, put it down and raised it again. In fact, with his cultivation, he already felt that this was definitely not the news from the immortal family.

But he finally put away the sword.

A bulge appeared on the wall, and the bulge gradually took shape, as if it was about to break free from the wall, and a hideous and terrifying shadow was jumping down from the wall.

Zou Shanlai stared at it, swallowed, but didn't move.

The monster finally stepped out of the wall and stood in the room. It was very huge and very "long".

The monster gradually became a human shape, with long hands, long feet, long body, and still growing. He grew too fast, and when he reached the roof, he lowered his head, turned around, and was still growing, growing horizontally, touching the wall, and then turn a corner.He was like a snake, but he was like a snake in the shape of a human being. He coiled round and round in the room, so that there was no gap in the room.

Except where Zou Shanlai sat.

As long as you turn your head, you will be facing the face of the monster. That face is about the same size as Zou Shanlai, and it seems to be melting, dripping liquid little by little. There are a pair of black eyes on the face, and the teeth without lips have been ground twice. Voice.

Zou Shanlai shuddered. The overwhelming coercion and terror emanating from the monster made him stunned. He had never seen such a strong evil force.

The monster turned to him: "I'll ferry you."

Zou Shanlai gritted his teeth and drew his sword angrily: "Monster!"

He stabbed the sword angrily, the sword flashed silver light, the monster laughed loudly, and said: "Nanjidao, there is no rain."

At that time, Zou Shanlai didn't know what this meant. When he passed by the farmland in Nandao and returned to Qingyizhang, he saw farmers laying canopies, and there were thunders in the sky.

Zou Shanlai raised his head and said to himself, "No rain."

Several farmers stopped and looked at the Taoist priest: "What nonsense are you talking about, Taoist priest, it's not raining today?"

Zou Shan came to see them.

A farmer said again: "Who am I, a Taoist priest in Chiang Rai?"

Everyone laughed, Zou Shanlai turned and left.

***

Going down the mountain again is because there are hundreds of people kneeling at the gate of Chiang Rai.

Crescent Moon rushed over in a hurry, saying that someone was looking for her senior brother outside.

When Zou Shan came out the door, the black man at the door kowtowed without saying a word.

Nanjidao, it has not rained for five months.

Zou Shanlai was also very helpless after hearing it. They obviously thought that they could deduce it, and they would certainly be able to change it, so they begged for nothing.Zou Shan came to persuade him again and again, saying that he really couldn't do anything about it, but he didn't expect that people would think that he was a master of mysteries, and they should not let go easily.

Ever since, the road threshold in Chiang Rai is full of people.

Zou Shanlai became more and more helpless, he could hear the shouts at the door, and he could see the dry fields with dry seedlings falling for hundreds of miles.

Such is the situation in life, hard work and hard work lead to nothing, neither can leap to the sky, nor can the world be magnificent. An unintentional remark, because of the despair of the people, has become the object of pursuit.

But what is Zou Shanlai capable of?He will not ask for rain.

He closed his eyes and sat in the room meditating, but he didn't take the scriptures to heart.

The wall surged around, something was about to break through the wall, Zou Shanlai opened his eyes and stared at the wall, he was not surprised at all.

In fact, he looked forward to it.

Here comes the monster.

He finished his work in the room, and looked at Zou Shanlai gloomyly: "Rain?"

Zou Shanlai didn't answer, and there was the brilliant sound of mountains roaring and tsunami at the door. This withered and dilapidated Taoist temple has never been heard before, and Zou Shanlai has never heard it in his 20 years of lonely cultivation.He can't hear the fairy sounds in the sky, but the sounds in the world are worth looking forward to.

Zou Shanlai pushed the sword aside and looked at the monster: "Rain!"
