Zhan Ranming is sincere

Jinguan City.

Hibiscus flowers are in full bloom above and below the city, as splendid as a brocade.From Qingyang Palace to Baihuatan, the fragrance continues for twenty miles.Among them, there is one called "Drunken Hibiscus" which is the top grade. The flowers bloom white in the morning, turn pink in the afternoon, and turn into rouge in the evening.

In the past few days, arty literati from all walks of life have gathered in Jinguan City because of the hibiscus flower market. There are also some martial artists who like poetry and poetry come here to enjoy flowers, write poems, drink wine and paint.The large and small inns in the city are almost full of people.

Ba Yegu took Princess Yasu along the official road at full speed, and went to Jinguan City ahead of time and asked more than a dozen inns, but none of them was vacant.

"What can I do? I want to sleep in a big bed! Take a hot bath!" Yasu flicked his horsewhip unhappily, leaving a whip mark on the bluestone road.

Ba Yegu: "Why do you think you have become so squeamish? Our people on horseback are informal. They can sleep on grass, caves, treetops, anywhere. They are not so particular like Brother Ye. , food, drink, housing, clothing, and everything is required, so I have to take good care of you..."

Yasu: "Hey, what do you mean? Mr. Suiye has to take good care of me, so I can deal with it casually? I am also a noble person, and besides, I am a girl's family, okay! Why do you change when you talk to me? Are you so worthless? See if I don’t beat you to death! You! Stop! Stop!”

Ba Yegu fled far away like a gust of wind, Yasu gritted his teeth and chased him furiously, wanting to peel him and cramp him.

Feng Lingze directly asked the groom to drive the carriage around the flowery Huanhua creek, and stopped along a winding gravel road in a secluded forest in the south of the city. The depth of the forest was surrounded by a bamboo fence. The yard is full of medicinal herbs and colorful flowers, and further inside is a simple and generous thatched cottage.The little drug boy in Tsing Yi, who was drying medicinal herbs in the yard, stopped what he was doing when he heard the sound of horseshoes, pushed open the fence gate and came out.

"What's the matter?" The little drug boy was only twelve or thirteen years old, wearing a square cloth cap, blinking big round eyes, with a defensive look on his face.

The groom parked the carriage and respectfully said, "My lord is here!"

A hand as clean as white jade with sharp joints lifted the cloth curtain, and a silver-haired young man stepped out from the curtain. His appearance was so stunning that it overshadowed the blooming hibiscus and graceful butterflies in the wild of Sichuan.

"Excuse me. May I ask if Mr. Tongzhi is here?" After the silver-haired young man opened his mouth, he lost a bit of his aloofness and arrogance of rejecting others thousands of miles away.

Little Yaotong's face was flushed red, and he was stunned for a moment before he stumbled and replied: "Who are you going to treat? The villain is going to call..."

The little drug boy was about to turn around and go back to the house, when he saw the silver-haired young man stretch out his hand and hugged the handsome young man in the red-striped black robe from the carriage, he was slightly taken aback, but somehow felt that there was nothing unusual about the two men being so close to each other. It was as if the two of them were meant to stand together.

"Master's uncle! Master's uncle!" A thin man in Tsing Yi ran out of the bamboo house, bluffing so hard that the little drug boy jumped.

Mo Mingwu took a closer look, and found that it was Zhong Ziqing, a medical student who had grown a lot in stature.In front of Zhong Ziqing's face, there was no longer any immature aura, and the lines of his facial features became resolute, and the original delicacy grew into the heroic spirit of an adult man.

Zhong Ziqing hurriedly bowed down to Feng Lingze, but just a few steps away from Mo Ming, he staggered and fell into the mud.

Mo Mingwu couldn't help laughing out loud, and stepped forward to help him up.The two stood facing each other, and Zhong Ziqing and Mo Mingwu were equal in height.

"Xiao Shi, you've finally grown up! Why are you so reckless? You've grown so tall that you've forgotten your brains, haven't you?" Mo Mingwu teased.

Zhong Ziqing's eyes widened, and he took two steps back: "You...you are...Senior Brother Mingwu? Am I dreaming?"

Zhong Ziqing looked Mo Mingwu up and down, squeezed his face, and then said to himself: "No, no, senior brother Mingwu is not so young...not so gentle...not so restrained... "

Mo Mingwu couldn't laugh or cry, he knew that his stature was still that of a teenager, and his figure was also quite thin.His eyes became clearer and clearer during the years of being as quiet as water in Pangbai Mountain, and even his face was still a little green, and the years hardly left any traces on his face.However, the sharp edges and corners of his original recklessness and high spirits have been smoothed by the years.The tranquility in the eyes is like the silver world behind the winter snow, and the depth is like the endless sky in the deep winter.

Zhong Ziqing stared blankly at Mo Mingwu for a long time, and finally noticed the unusual intimacy of his master uncle and the hand on Mo Mingwu's slender waist, and then suddenly realized: "Master Mingwu, it turns out that it is really You... are you still alive?"

Mo Mingwu raised an eyebrow: "What? Haven't you seen that senior brother Mo Mingwu in Taiyi Mountain who can cover the sky with one hand? So you believe that I am the deity?"

Zhong Ziqing: "Eldest brother! How can you not believe in Ziqing? Even if Ziqing really can't recognize you, will the master uncle still admit it? In addition to teaching real people in our Taoist sect, it is the master uncle who knows the elder brother best. ! There is no other choice for the person who stands next to the master uncle, but the elder brother?"

Mo Mingwu smiled and bent his phoenix eyes, and stretched out his hands to rub Zhong Ziqing's hair bun: "It's still you who can talk! Tell the truth! You're really likable!"

Zhong Ziqing chuckled, couldn't help but blush, and looked at Feng Lingze cautiously, seeing Feng Lingze nod his head slightly, his smile magnified several times.He beckoned the little drug boy to him, asked the little drug boy to salute Feng Lingze and Mo Mingwu respectively, climbed into the carriage and unloaded the luggage one by one, and led everyone into the house.

Not long after, Ba Yegu and Yasu, who went to the city to inquire first, found the sign along the road, tied up the horse and walked into the medicine hut.

Ba Yegu: "The two of us have inquired about it. In the past few days, Jinguan City is full of sons and nerds from aristocratic families who recite poems, paint pictures, enjoy flowers and drink wine. There are also some young masters from Taoist families."

Mo Mingwu: "Oh? How many Xuanmen families are there?"

Yasu: "Shu is covered with mountains and lands. Headed by the Qingcheng School, there are three famous Taoist masters: the Qingcheng School practiced alchemy and swordsmanship, the Kongshimen practiced Fengshui Kanyu, and the Tiantai School practiced Buddhism. Other small sects are scattered here and there. There are about a dozen of them, distributed in and outside the city.”

Mo Mingwu: "Is there any news about Taoism in the city?"

"I heard that Daoist Master Taoist did not care about world affairs after retreating. Now the three elders of the mountain gate and other sect masters are sent to various places to search for the remnants of the Yinqie sect. Now the power is in the hands of the young master, Mo Mingwu." Ba Yegu was a little puzzled, and asked, "Is that young master Ye Geer's substitute?"

Zhong Ziqing was filled with righteous indignation: "Damn it! Who dares to pretend to be a senior brother?"

Feng Lingze raised his hand to signal him to calm down: "Ziqing, go find Mr. Tong Zhi and come over to treat Mingwu. The most urgent thing at the moment is to cure Mingwu's eyes first, and we will talk about the rest later."

"Yes. Master uncle!" Zhong Ziqing withdrew, turned and walked out.

"Then let's go to rest by ourselves!" Bayegu and Yasu said.

"Please do what you want." Feng Lingze nodded.

Mr. Tongzhi was dressed in coarse cloth, with a pale face, a pair of dark and transparent eyes, and a goatee beard.After entering the room, he swept around the crowd and saw Feng Lingze, who had silver hair and snow, and his eyes lit up. He quickened his pace and came forward to take a closer look: "The doctor? "

Feng Lingze turned around lightly, nodded in greeting: "Feng has met Mr. Tongzhi."

Mr. Tongzhi looked shocked: "You are so young! It is true that there are talents from generation to generation, and a new generation replaces the old ones. Very good!"

Feng Lingze: "I heard that you can distinguish the three yin and three yang veins, and explore the art of changing yin and yang, so how can you know how to diagnose and treat voodoo?"

Mr. Tongzhi: "The art of voodoo has been lost for a long time in the Jianghu. I think it was three or forty years ago that the king of medicine taught me to identify the symptoms of voodoo patients. Could it be that someone has fallen into the art of voodoo now? I don't know which son it is ?”

Mo Mingwu came over to greet him: "It's the junior. The junior's surname is Mo. He is from the art world."

Mr. Tongzhi also noticed this handsome young man at first, but he didn't see signs of poisoning or injury on the surface.Slightly stunned, he stepped forward to check his pulse, frowned slightly and asked: "Mr. Mo has red, swollen eyes and tears when the poison occurs, especially at night?"

Mo Mingwu: "Yes! As Mr. said, in the middle of the night, your eyes are red and swollen, you can't see the surroundings clearly, and sometimes you will cry..."

Mr. Tong Zhi called out to the door: "Xiao Zhong!"

Zhong Ziqing quickly appeared in the room in response: "Sir, please tell me."

Mr. Tongzhi quickly wrote out two sets of prescriptions and handed them to Zhong Ziqing: "Go to the back mountain to collect herbs such as Prunella vulgaris, mulberry leaves, cassia seeds, medlar, skullcap, red peony root, chrysanthemum, dogwood, rehmannia glutinosa, etc. . Later make a few decoctions of medicine and boil it into a plaster for Mr. Mo to apply on the eyes."

Feng Lingze pulled Mo Mingwu together to express his gratitude: "Thank you, sir, for your rescue."

Mr. Tong Zhi waved his hand and told them to go back to the house to rest first.

It was night, and Mo Mingwu was lying quietly and covering his eyes.The tingling and swelling after nightfall really relieved a lot.

He squeezed the fingers of Feng Lingze who was sitting next to him and said softly: "Do you think that our journey back to the Central Plains was too peaceful? I almost suspect that the old witch, Guiyu, put down her butcher's knife and became a Buddha immediately after putting down her butcher's knife."

Feng Lingze caressed his temples, and suddenly asked: "Do you still remember how to operate Qimen Dunjia?"

Mo Mingwu: "Remember. It's just that you can't use the nine-character mantra."

Feng Lingze: "Your innate pure yang body has been eroded by viciousness, and I will help you recover within seven days. After seven days, set off to the tomb of Zhuanxu in Dongjun City to find the Tengkong Sword."

Mo Mingwu faintly felt that Feng Lingze was a little too hasty: "Isn't there still you? Hua Peacock will join us in Jinguan City in a few days."

Feng Lingze: "I used the aura of plants and trees to cover up your body along the way, but you can still see signs of evil ghosts and baby spirits tracking. It seems that ghosts have left a way to find you on your body. You lie down and don't move, wait for me to show you It breaks the concealment spell on your body."

Mo Ming was stunned, but couldn't help asking: "So you are really the descendant of the wind queen who created the eight formations to destroy Chi You? The formation technique is unique in the world?"

Feng Lingze responded, and took a damp soft cloth to wipe off the ointment from his eyes.

There was a knock on the door, and Zhong Ziqing's gentle voice came from outside the door: "Uncle Master, the 36 copper coins you asked for have been brought."

Feng Lingze opened the door and let Zhong Ziqing enter the house, took the water basin, removed the soft cloth and medicine residue, and locked the door after Zhong Ziqing left.

Mo Mingwu lay on the bed, turned his face to see him playing with copper coins in the room, arranging each copper coin in the position of 36 Tiangang stars.Immediately afterwards, a white candle is lit at the positions of the first star Tiankui and the tail star Tianqiao respectively.

The left hand made a tactic, and the right sword finger lit a yellow talisman, and quickly passed over the copper coins at the positions of the Tiankui star, Tiangu star, Tianshang star, Tianshao star, Tianshang star, and Tiancry star, and suddenly brought There was a gust of wind.

Suddenly, Mo Mingwu unexpectedly saw a row of golden spells and spells appearing around Feng Lingze's body: "Heavenly Gang raises its might, and Xuanwu follows behind. The jade color shakes the bow and shoots, and the glittering brilliance flows. Destroy all evil spirits and kill thousands of ghosts." The evil door is closed, but the righteous way is open."

I saw 32 gold characters turned into a slender gold thread to string 36 copper coins together, and the array was activated with a whoosh sound.

Mo Mingwu paused for a moment, unable to move at all.

Feng Lingze stepped forward, flicked his finger lightly, and then the gold wire was launched from the copper coin and gathered on Mo Mingwu's body, trapping a large cloud of black mist that suddenly emerged from his body in the gold wire mesh.Hei Wu couldn't escape after several struggles, and gradually became crazy, letting out a piercing hissing sound.

Feng Lingze took out three silver needles from his cuff with a snap, pierced Mo Mingwu's Xing acupoint on his head, Shaoshang acupoint on his thumb, and Shenmai acupoint on his feet, sealing the evil on his chest.

Mo Mingwu looked down and saw that there was a piece of red and black skin on the open chest of the white jacket, and there seemed to be a piece of flame inside that was about to break through the cage and escape.

I saw Feng Lingze stretched out his right hand, grabbed the living thing wrapped in black mist from the air with his bare hands, and broke into smoke and dust with a snap of his hands.

He leaned over to check Mo Mingwu's face: "Are you all right?"

Mo Mingwu felt that he could move again, but he was weak and sat up with his arms propped up: "Fortunately, it's just a little weak. What is that?"

Feng Lingze: "The soul-eating insects of the witch religion. They live in the human body and sleep all year round, absorbing the internal energy and blood essence of the human body little by little. Generally speaking, the existence of soul-eating insects is difficult to detect. If it is not because you leave the nearby At the time of Baishan's enchantment, the tracking method of witchcraft was activated, and I didn't notice it for a while."

"Wait a minute, I seem to feel that my whole body is full of strength, what's going on?" Mo Mingwu's phoenix eyes slipped a trace of surprise.

Feng Lingze: "Excellent. The blockage has been removed, and the spiritual power of the wolf has been integrated into the meridians. You can try to adjust your breath and run for a week."

Mo Mingwu hurriedly sat down cross-legged, only to feel a faint heat in his dantian, and a stream of pure qi flowed through his body, mobilizing the innate qi in his body.

Feng Lingze: "Tao gives birth to one, one gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things. The one who is the Taoist, the sky and the earth are overwhelming, the height is unreachable, and the depth is unfathomable. Those who have attained the Tao are weak in will but strong in things, and should be weak in heart. Those who are weak in will but strong in action hide in what they dare not do, act in what they cannot do, be calm and carefree, and move without losing time. Turn around with all things, not to sing first, but to respond to them. All things are born, but only know how to keep them Its root. All things come out, but only one knows to keep its door. Therefore, it is endless, extremely infinite, illuminates things without being dazzled, and responds without lack. This is called the solution of heaven."

Feng Lingze's cold and jade-like voice came to his ears, and there was a sense of solemnity and solemnity.

After Mo Mingwu recovered the internal force in his body, a faint golden glow lit up all over his body.Feng Lingze remembered that Mo Mingwu a few years ago was just a silver glow.This time, he lost all his skills and returned to the original point, and then recovered his skills after twists and turns. The glow of his body sublimated from silvery white to red orange to golden.

The only way is to rely on misfortune and blessing, and to rest on blessing and misfortune.Perhaps all of this was preordained long ago.

A few days later, Bayegu and Yasu finally bid farewell, bought Sichuan strong wine and spices, took some medicinal materials and written prescriptions from Mr. Tongzhi, and rode away on a bay red horse and a jade lion.

In the south of Jinguan City, there is a good place to enjoy hibiscus flowers. It is an elegant and unique tea house called "Floating Life Like a Dream".The first floor is a lobby with spacious and bright seats, and the second floor is a quiet Accord with bead curtains hanging at the door, flowers carved on wooden windows, and famous calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls.

Just after drinking a cup of tea, I suddenly heard the voice of a woman babbling and singing a ditty in the Yage room next door.

After listening carefully to the libretto, it turned out to be a song "Longevity Girl": "A spring feast, a glass of green wine and a song, and three wishes to Chen. First, I wish my husband a thousand years; See you at the age..."

Mo Mingwu raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I heard that later generations have made changes to this long-lived girl, and the changes are very interesting."

Feng Lingze raised his black eyes to look at him, expressing that he was listening attentively.

Mo Mingwu crossed his hands in front of his chest, and said: "I have five deep wishes. The first wish is long-lasting. The second wish is like two swallows carved on a beam, and they will meet each other every year. The third wish is to be affectionate and love each other. The fourth wish Never disperse. Five wishes..."

With a bang, a white porcelain teacup from the next room was thrown through the air, bypassed the pillars, and landed firmly on their table.

The two looked back, and the man next door squeezed his throat and said: "Why do you only wish to be like swallows and fly together, as long as your lover doesn't want brothers, right? Where is your conscience? You are a wolf..."

Mo Mingwu squinted, his figure flashed past, and he appeared in front of the guest of the Accord next door like a gust of wind, startling the person: "Oh my mother! You you you you! Who are you? Where did you come from? The bastard dares to pretend to be my brother?"

Sitting in the Accord next door is a pure Zen living-Buddha-Vatican boy with disheveled hair, a navy blue ribbon on his forehead, gold dharma wheels and peacock feathers on his earrings, and a peacock blue robe embroidered with intricate feather patterns.Opposite him is a monk with a very dignified sitting posture and wearing an ocher cassock. This person is the monk Xuxu.

Mo Mingwu pursed his lips, crossed his hands on his chest, and stared calmly at Fan Tongzi's eyes.

Fan boy jumped off the chair, put his hands behind his back, and circled around Mo Mingwu, his eyes scanned him from head to toe, from foot to head, from front to back, from back to front over and over again.

Over the past years, the two have been separated for seven full years in a blink of an eye.Boy Fan is half a head taller than Mo Mingwu.

Boy Fan lowered his head slightly: "This figure is not right, you still look like a teenager, your skin is so white and shiny, why do you look like a young lady raised in a deep boudoir?"

Monk Xuxu also got down from his seat, stood up, put his hands together and bowed his head, and said, "Young Master Ming Wu, are you here all right? Poor monk, you are being polite."

"I've seen Master Xuxu." Mo Mingwu's face eased, and he nodded slightly as a greeting.

Monk Xuxu: "Master Mingwu is here, so the senior medical sage must be here too."

Mo Mingwu: "That's right. It's in the cubicle. This way please."

Monk Xuxu bowed and walked forward: "Thank you."

"Hey! Hey!" Fan boy stretched out his arms to stop Monk Xuxu, but Mo Mingwu made a slap in the face immediately: "You are the only one who plays too much!"

Fan boy turned around and hooked Mo Mingwu's shoulders with his long arms, smiling brightly like a spring flower: "You don't know my virtues! Why do you dislike me!"

Mo Mingwu: "Hmph."

Fan boy: "Hey! I am 'I miss you every day, but I don't see you'. You have been unknown for seven years, but I think it is so hard..."

Mo Mingwu: "It seems that you have been studying hard in the past few years, and even if you drank a little ink in your stomach, you can still come up with a few words of Wen Zou Zou?"

Fan boy: "Eh? Do you understand what's going on in my heart? Do you have to show me my heart and soul?"

Mo Mingwu: "That's enough, that's enough! Talk nonsense. Sit down! Close the door!"

Mo Mingwu waited for them all to sit down, pasted a talisman on the door, and sat down too.

The four of them sat down around a small square table and had a toast with tea instead of wine: "It's been so many years, don't come here without any problems!"

Mo Mingwu spoke first: "Where do you come from? Have you ever been to Taoism? Have you encountered the forces of ghosts on the way here?"

Fan boy: "A year and a half ago I heard the news of your resurrection, so I rushed from southern Xinjiang to Taiyi Mountain in Qinling. Now the whole Taoist sect is much more depressed than it was a few years ago, and most of the disciples have been exiled. I was sent out to practice, and there was no expansion of recruiting new disciples in recent years. The disciples of the mountain gate insisted that Master Mingwu was seriously injured and has been retreating. I have visited several times, but every time I was rejected.

I tried to explore twice at night, but your Taoist sect has set up too many formations and blindfolds, and it is not easy to get into the forbidden area of ​​the back mountain.I only sneaked a glimpse of Mo Mingwu from a distance once, and it was almost like you were carved out of the same mold!But that Mo Ming is nothing like you who were still there seven years ago, with a taller body, similar to me. "

Mo Mingwu nodded, motioning for him to continue.

Fan boy: "But, who am I? I am a Jinlan, like-minded, and perfect tacit understanding fan boy with you, Mingming!"

Mo Mingwu: "Don't be a fool, Hua Peacock, what weakness does that person have?"

Fan boy: "Don't tell me, ordinary people really can't tell. Guess what? That man is dressed too ordinary! I know that your natal family is the famous Helan family, and the clothes that your uncle made for you are all The valuable cloud silk brocade, frost flower forging, soft smoke, and auspicious clouds and dark patterns are all woven by the embroiderers in the best embroidery workshop in the south of the Yangtze River with thousands of gold threads, silver threads, and silk feathers. The average person really can't afford to wear it."

Mo Mingwu: "You have some brains. Haven't you seen my master? Where are the three elders?"

Fan boy shook his head and replied: "This is also what I find strange. Not to mention the master teacher, the three elders who have been sitting in town all the year round can't find any of them. I will go to the medical school to find the doctor, and go to other schools to find other elders. There are no real clues. I really didn't have the patience to wait for Mo Mingwu to leave the customs, so I went to Jinling City to inquire about news, and then went to Huayan Sect and Ci En Sect. In short, I went around and went around for a long time."

"Floating life is like a dream" is full of hibiscus flowers blooming outside the railing. The breeze blows gently, and the sweet laughter of the girl can be heard faintly in the hibiscus flower field.
