[Legend of the White Snake] Leifeng Pagoda

09

Chengdu contains Tianshan Mountain, the praise that appears in the "Shan Hai Jing" refers to the Qingcheng Mountain with Zhaogong Mountain at an altitude of 2434 meters as the main peak.

It is such a high mountain, like a hidden treasure, which attracts batch after batch of herb collectors rushing here first.

As for Xu Xuan, who was climbing and didn't know that he was being talked about by snake spirits hundreds of meters above, he didn't know that he would be recorded in history and his name would remain in history.

His name, like a deification, was changed to Xu Xian, and he became the heroine of a bitter drama that earned many tears (it's really a matter of the author's integrity to dig him out again and blackmail him).

First of all, he has a family background that is very suitable for the hero. His status as an orphan is enough to arouse the maternal love of Bai Suzhen and many others, but he wants to grow up, so he gave it to an uncle and opened a medicine hall. Medicine boy.

For the medicinal herb Chuanxiong, he traveled thousands of miles from Hangzhou to Mount Qingcheng, where he was given the opportunity to meet Bai Suzhen.

Secondly, his character is also very male lead, and the female lead is a match made in heaven. A man who is too strong will not let Bai Suzhen show his face, let alone have a lingering love with her, so his Soft-tempered, scholar-like, living in the market, very down-to-earth.

For such a man, his fame basically depends on the imperial examination to establish his official career. For someone like Xu Xuan who was picked by the gods to have a vigorous transsexual relationship, I have to praise his godly character.

And right now, Xu Xuan doesn't know anything about it. If he knew all this in advance, I don't know whether he would choose to spread it by word of mouth in this way.

It was June at this time, the weather was very hot, and the mountain was quiet and cool, but it was not enough for such a climbing exercise.

Xu Xuan casually wiped the sweat off his cheeks with his sleeve, half-closed his eyes and looked up. The sun was shining brightly, making it unbearably hot.

"Xu Xuan, what are you doing? Isn't there a Ligusticum chuanxiong next to it? Hold on, when we arrive at the Shangqing Palace, we will stay there for one night and go down the mountain tomorrow morning."

That was the herb picker who was traveling with him, a local, who was very familiar with this area, so Xu Xuan would go with him.

Xu Xuan's appearance as a frail scholar made the guide shake his head.

"Thank you, uncle." Xu Xuan smiled gently, but was very polite. He looked up and climbed up while gritting his teeth.

Don't look at the scorching sun now, I'm afraid it will be dark in the evening when I climb up, so I have to rest in the Taoist temple for a night.

And this kind of process, people who often come to Qingcheng Mountain to collect herbs are already familiar with it, and even the people in Tianshi Cave are used to the herb collectors coming to the Taoist temple to rest for a night.

As long as there are not many pilgrims on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year, the Taoist temple will still open its doors to these people.

The thick tree trunk was swaying like a swing. After a few glances, Bai Suzhen felt bored. When Xu Xuan looked up, she turned to look at Qingling, "Let's go, they are coming up soon."

Qingling poked the branch next to it, and gently stroked the trunk with her fingers, causing the tree to move wildly, dodging non-stop, as if it was ticklish.

Her eyes were as gentle as water, she patted a few times lightly, and then slid down the tree trunk, followed by Bai Suzhen with the tail of the snake swinging.

With her appearance, she still can't go out to meet people, Qingling looked at Bai Suzhen who was gone, then looked at her own snake tail, her heart moved, and then saw that the snake tail had turned into legs, no different from a normal person.

It is okay for this illusion to last for a day or two, but it will waste energy, this is the first time Qingling has done this.

Since it is not a festival, there are very few pilgrims. It is not easy to go up to Qingcheng Mountain. Those who come up to pay homage are all sincere.

Bai Suzhen is so familiar with this place as if she was treating her own back garden, obviously this is not the first time she has come here.

Holding an umbrella in her hand, she walked towards the Shangqing Palace in lotus steps, her steps were light, she folded the umbrella with one hand, and tapped on the gate with the other.

Soon, someone from the Taoist temple came to open the door, and a little Taoist stuck his head out, with his hair tied in a bun and hairpin, dressed in green clothes, he couldn't see the bones of immortality, but he was a delicate boy.

Seeing that it was Bai Suzhen, he smiled and saluted, "So it's a pilgrim, please."

Qingling followed closely behind Bai Suzhen, and Bai Suzhen nodded to the little Taoist priest, then lifted her skirt and stepped across the temple gate.

She put away the folding umbrella in her hand, then bowed her hands to the little Taoist priest and said: "Wuliang Tianzun, the Taoist priest just came from evening class?"

The little Taoist also bowed his hands to Bai Suzhen to return the salute, looked at Qingling who was slowly stepping in, frowned, but ignored him, "Yes, the pilgrim is still the original one?"

Bai Suzhen was spoiled so much that she didn't need to know how to read words and expressions, only when others looked at her face, so she didn't notice the little Taoist's frown at Qing Ling, but Qing Ling who noticed didn't care, the little Taoist's deliberate disgust, It was a waste of time.

"Yes." Bai Suzhen smiled, the clean breath all over her body made the little Taoist blush a little, and then hurriedly walked ahead to lead the way.

It seems that Bai Suzhen has disturbed her many times here, and now she has her own exclusive guest room.

Even when the little Taoist priest helped to open the door, Qingling saw some things that Bai Suzhen used on a daily basis, and she had her own stronghold in the enemy's den.

Bai Suzhen looked at the little Taoist priest who was about to retire, and quickly said softly: "I wonder if the chief can arrange another guest room, this is my best friend who came with me."

The guest room in the Taoist temple is not big, and Bai Suzhen was afraid of wronging Qingling if there were two people crowded in it.

It was just a small request, and there are many guest rooms in the Taoist temple, but the little Taoist priest disagreed with a straight face: "Miss Bai, if it weren't for your sake, your best friend can't come in yet, and the Taoist temple doesn't welcome the gods." Disrespectful."

"Disrespect?" Bai Suzhen looked at Qingling strangely, there was nothing unusual, why did the little Taoist say that Qingling was disrespectful to the gods.

The little Taoist looked at Bai Suzhen's incomprehensible expression, and Qingling's constant expression, which made the little Taoist look at Wohuo and didn't want to take another look.

"Do not enter through the middle of the door. Go to the right door and step on the right foot, and the left door to the left foot. Avoid wrapping the pillars." The little Taoist still stared at Bai Suzhen, not wanting to look at Qingling, as if he was following a dogma.

When he said that, Bai Suzhen remembered that when she walked in, Qingling was behind her, she was knocking on the right door, she should take the right step, she had learned all these in the years in the mortal world, but Qingling had nothing known.

Qingling still looked like that, with an attitude of staying out of the way, as if the person they were discussing was not her.

Seeing the little Taoist priest's anger, Bai Suzhen repeatedly apologized for Qingling: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's her first time to visit the Taoist temple, she doesn't know these etiquettes, those who don't know are innocent, please forgive me, Taoist priest."

Don't know etiquette?The little Taoist couldn't help but stare wide-eyed, everyone in this area knew about the Shangqing Palace, and every family enshrined it.

The little Taoist glanced sideways at Qingling, and saw that she looked like that from beginning to end, most likely a cold-tempered and withdrawn person, so he put away his doubts, looked at Bai Suzhen's clean eyes, and then let go of his fingers. Looking at the room next to him, he said, "Just live next door."

"Thank you, Taoist priest. I'll pay my respects when Suzhen tidies up a bit." Bai Suzhen already understood Qingling's temperament, and was relieved to hear that the little Taoist didn't pursue it any further.

The little Taoist's attitude towards Bai Suzhen is very different from that towards Qingling, he nodded with a smile: "There may be a holy lamp tonight, if Miss Bai is sincere, maybe we will meet."

The sunrise, the sea of ​​clouds, and the holy lamp are called the three natural wonders of Qingcheng Mountain, and it is pure luck to encounter them.

Bai Suzhen's eyes lit up when she heard this, as if gathering the stars at night, she nodded repeatedly, which made the little Taoist smile knowingly.

Such an innocent woman, even if she is a demon, who can keep her away.
