Chapter 61

"Anyway, that's all I know about Xiaodao. It's everywhere... You can figure it out on your own." After eating and drinking, carrying the package of steamed buns and beef sauce on the back, he left the private room, and went all the way. Turning his head and talking to the two people next to him, he went downstairs without looking at the road, but his steps were quite steady.It looked like there was no urgency to run for his life, and he didn't know if he was really afraid of the man in the valley, or he just ran away because he was too lazy to cause trouble.

"Where are you planning to go?" After asking what he wanted to ask, and getting a clear answer, Bai Wei no longer pretended to stay, but just asked a few more words about where he wanted to go, so that he had an idea in his mind.In the final analysis, this old-fashioned old man is also a wonderful person. If we can meet again in the future, it would be good to be friends.

"Wuliang Tianzun, the heavenly secrets must not be revealed~" His brows were raised slightly, and Yong Wushu waved the whisk in his hand and pretended to salute the two of them.

Seeing this, Bai Wei wanted to reply and tease him, but somehow he was attracted by a newcomer in the inn lobby.

It was a person in a snow-colored cloak, he didn't look too tall, and his figure was thin. The hood embroidered with strange spell patterns was pressed down quite low, and his face could not be seen clearly.The voice is light and faint, very clean and comfortable to listen to.

If you want to speculate, it should be a young man.

"Boss, please borrow a bowl of hot water." And what was put down with the words was a small piece of silver.

"Okay, guest officer, sit down first, I'll pour it right away." Smiling, she collected the broken silver corners and beckoned people to sit down. Qin Suluo was about to carry the pot on the stove in the back kitchen, when she turned around and saw Bai Weisan at the top of the stairs. people.

"Yo, how many of you are leaving now?"

"It's getting late, it's time to go home." Looking away, Bai Wei smiled in response and handed over a full ingot of money, without further inquiry.Seeing that this person is not dressed like an ordinary person from the Jianghu, the left and right sides should not be facing Wanhua, so there is no need to worry too much, "The guy is good at craftsmanship, and those few plates of dim sum are very delicious. This is tea money."

"Then I'll accept it, and come back when I have time later." Qin Suluo has always been quite clear about friendship as friendship and business as business.After collecting the money and saying hello, he went to the back kitchen to fetch water.

"Definitely." But when Bai Wei was about to leave, he saw Su Weiyun beside him who was thinking, and his eyes fell on the man wearing a hood and cloak who was facing them sideways, "What's wrong? "

"I seem to... have seen him somewhere."

Frowning slightly, Su Weiyun's tone was not very sure.

In fact, he felt that he probably didn't know this person, let alone recognized him from his attire where he was wrapped in a cloak and only the tip of his chin could be seen.But inexplicably, there always seemed to be a vague impression in his mind, but he really couldn't remember where he saw it.

"If that's the case, do you want to go over and say hello?" Hearing this, Bai Wei didn't express any surprise, but just mentioned it jokingly.He had seen the senior brother of Gu Zhong's calligraphy and ink lineage who could find out the skills of the person in the painting from the famous sword competition just by the back view of the painting, so Su Weiyun said that he seemed to have seen it, and Bai Wei believed it.

And then what surprised Bai Wei was Yong Wushu's uncertain sentence: "...Uncle?"

"Ah." Su Weiyun seemed to suddenly recall the origin of the impression because of this sentence.

He really didn't know this person, but on the day Ling Wanjing got married, he was in a bad mood and went astray, so he met this person face to face in the corridor.Because that place is not a place to entertain guests, I have some impressions.

"Uncle, why are you here..."

At this moment, Yong Wushu's mood is a bit complicated, but the pace of crossing over is not slow.

Counting it, the two haven't seen each other for about 13 years. Both their appearance and their positions have changed a lot, but the only thing that can give him an answer now... Maybe it really is Yueliujing.

Although, he doesn't have any capital to ask Dongyue Liujing for help.

If you really want to say it, it's a perfect cultivation if someone doesn't get angry because of what his master has done.

"It's time to take your medicine, so come in and borrow a bowl of hot water." Surprisingly, the man didn't show the slightest bit of aggressive or unfamiliar emotion to Yong Wushu's appearance and words, but just reached out to take off the cover-up pocket Hat looked at several people with a soft and peaceful tone.And the clear and handsome face exposed under the hood has a little paleness that cannot be ignored, giving people a feeling of sickness and weakness.

"No, I mean... how come you are in Qinling." No matter how lazy and calm Yong Wushu has been for a long time, the appearance of Yue Liujing really made it difficult for him to maintain a peaceful state of mind.While speaking, Qin Suluo brought the kettle over, and he reached out to take over the work of pouring water, "Let me do it."

Such an uncharacteristically courteous attitude made Bai Wei at the side a little admirable for this first meeting, which he had heard about before.I heard from Baiji that this old master hated the talent of this younger brother to the bone. Today, the old master is not afraid to revive his master from the grave after seeing people's respect?

But then again, the old man's divination and calculation skills are only enough to be scary enough. To what extent can his uncle's talent know all about it, so that people can hate him so much that he wants to put him aside deadly.

He obviously looks like a sick child who is eighteen or nineteen years old and hasn't fully grown up yet.The appearance is quite pleasing to the eye and comfortable, but that Qingjun Lingxiu clearly still has some unfinished childishness, and even a little bit of cuteness, how could it attract so many people's hatred.I can't figure it out, I really can't figure it out.

"You two, please sit down."

The gesture of Yongwushu pouring the hot water and delivering it with his own hands made Yueliujing slightly startled, but he took it without making any further remarks.He asked Bai Wei and Su Weijun who were on the side to sit down, and then took out an ebony bowl less than the size of a palm and a pill wrapped in wax and wrapped in oil paper from the pouch under the cloak, and poured hot water Put the medicine into his own ebony bowl, and slowly stir it with chopsticks in a circle: "I just came to deliver some things."

After a while, he seemed to think of something again, looked at Yong Wushu and blinked, and said very seriously but gently, a sentence that made Bai Wei's spine shudder instantly: "Master Wushu, is this... going on the road? It's getting late, if you want to escape, you have to hurry."

"Uncle Master!" As for the shameless old Taoist, he really didn't bother to care about anything after hearing this, and knelt down on the ground without even looking at the crowd watching in the hall, "What are you doing?" Let's do the math..."

What's the face? What he can't bear in his life is the confusion of the road ahead.

"I only have a few taels of silver left on me, and the six catties of sauced beef and thirty steamed buns are still paid by others, and I have no face to ask you to protect me. If you will die or escape, you should take pity on my useless nephew." , give me a correct sentence?"

If it is said that God is playing with him, he should die or live, at least he should give a correct sentence.On weekdays, it is too much disaster for others, but when it comes to me, I can't do anything.Master Patriarch's words are right in the end, divination is a school of divination, and it is difficult to calculate the catastrophe at the top, but don't count at the bottom of your own size.Also like a joke.

And Yue Liujing looked at the person in front of him who seemed to be planning to die without getting an answer. He seemed to be considered as mediocre as his nephew. He blinked and then blinked again, and put down his chopsticks with a smile: "Chenghui Baiyin 1000 taels."

Smiling eyes that seem real and fake, like crescent moons.

"...Lend me money!"

As for Yong Wushu who stood up abruptly and grabbed Su Weiyun without any second thoughts, he was obviously quite cooperative.

Of course, he is also quite good at finding objects.

"You've been fooled by ghosts! Who would bring so many banknotes with them when they go out for a stroll!"

Unceremoniously slapping Yongwushu's paw away, although Su Weiyi also cursed in a heavy tone, after all years of cultivation, he was ashamed with this old Taoist in front of the public.After exhaling for a while to reconcile, he took the jadeite jade pendant with excellent water head at his waist and handed it to Yue Liujing in a gentle voice.

"...Should I use this piece of jade as a bet first?"

"Thank you for your patronage." After accepting the jade pendant, Yue Liujing's smiling eyes lingered on Su Weiyun's face for a moment, before picking up the bowl of soup medicine with a slightly strange aroma and falling down indistinctly. In a word, "Daoist, if you want to live past eighty, you can't just eat and not move."

There is neither hexagram nor calculation, no matter how it sounds like nonsense, let alone the value of 1000 taels.

But Yong Wushu, who was in debt for no reason, seemed to hear the most powerful guarantee, and smiled instantly: "That means... my little life can last for decades~?"

"If you eat less and exercise more." Blinking, Yue Liujing smiled cleanly and innocently, even a little cutely.

"Is it comfortable to say it?" Cursing, Su Weijun knew that this old way would be useful in the future, it was only about 1000 taels, and he would return the jade pendant later when he returned to the valley.It's just that this opportunity is rare, and now that it's in front of us, we can't let Yong Wushu, an old man, fool him casually.

"Come here and sign the deed of sale for this young master!" As he said, he went to the counter with a smile as if he had stolen it, and borrowed cinnabar to hold the old man's hand, and then he said nothing in vain. The prostitution fingerprints were pressed on the paper.

Su Weiyun knew in his heart that although this old man opened his mouth very annoyingly, he kept his promise.Whether it's him or Bai Wei, there are still many places where this person will be needed in the future. With this bargaining chip, many things will be much more convenient.

Leaving the noisy two people, there were only Bai Wei and Yue Liujing frowning and drinking the soup in small sips at the table.Even though it was the first time they met, it was not awkward to be silent at this moment, but Bai Wei had a few doubts that had been accumulated for a long time in her heart, so she first smiled and expressed her kindness: "Master Yue. "

"Master Bai is laughing at you." Taking out a clean handkerchief to wipe off the medicinal juice on her lips, Yue Liujing pushed the jadeite pendant on the table back to Bai Wei with a shy smile, without ever asking Then Bai Wei's name and surname were known.

"It was just a joke. Young Master and Doctor Bai have a very close relationship, so I don't want your money."

"The Taoist priest is here to look for Mr. Ling." After the sentence just now, even though Bai Wei was hit by the words, he was no longer as surprised as before, and only took back the jade pendant with a smile on his face, which made people laugh. I feel that being gentle and courteous is very friendly, "It happens that we are going back to the valley, why don't we go together."

He has a lot of things that he wants to ask the Taoist priest Yue Xiao.

"Then there will be Mr. Lao."

************************************************** ********

When going back to the valley, Bai Wei and the others borrowed a carriage from Qin Suluo because they were concerned about Yue Liujing's sickness, and when they got back to the edge of the cliff, they let people get out of the carriage, and then sent them back by Yong Wushu.The veterans on the left and right didn't want to see Ling Wanjing, so it was just right for him to take advantage of this stall to avoid it.

Counting back and forth like this, I went down to the valley just in time for dinner.

But before Bai Wei went back to the Luoxing Lake hut to get the basket of pomegranates that had been set aside earlier, she bumped into the little boy who was waiting for them at the entrance of the Lingyun Stairs.As soon as he saw people, he said that the dumplings had been prepared inside and were waiting for the reunion dinner when everyone was ready. Mr. Bai asked the owner of the valley to come back and went there immediately.

Nodding his head in response, Bai Weizheng sent the little boy to reply first, but when he turned around, he saw that Su Weiyun, who was still aggressive in the inn just now, turned into an even more indescribably gloomy appearance than before: "...I asked you to eat , what are you running for?"

"I won't go." Frowning slightly, Su Weiyun shook his head and didn't say anything more.

"I've worked so hard to find a basket and don't plan to give it away?" Bai Wei knew what Su Weiyun was struggling with, but thought that it was nothing more than a basket of food, and she didn't ask for anything, so why was she so pessimistic? .

But maybe it was because he was a bystander that his mood was different.

"It's not a good thing, you just take it." If he still had half a mind to send it in person before leaving the valley, then after learning the news of Ning Wulou's death, the basket of pomegranates Su Weiyou would have loved anyway. I can't send it.The living can never compete with the dead, and from now on, no one can win Ningwu Tower again.

"I'll go back to the house to eat." That's it... that's it.

Looking at the bleak back of Su Weiyun leaving alone, Bai Wei didn't know what words she could use to comfort him at this moment, she was silent for a long time before evoking a slightly apologetic smile at Yue Liujing beside her: "Lao Dao Wait for a long time, then... let's go there."

"Master Bai." Only this time, it was Yue Liujing's seemingly endless words that answered him, "There are so many pomegranate seeds, I don't eat them at night."

"But Xiaoba didn't mean..." Wei Wei was startled, but it was only for a moment that Bai Wei thought of the true meaning of those words, and his heart trembled, "Is... Palace Master Ning likes it?"

If it was really what he thought, Yue Liujing's sudden words would have saved him from the fire and water.

"Yeah." Wei Wei nodded her head as a reply, but Yue Liujing didn't give an answer.

Few people know that the pomegranates that have been kept in Ling Wan's mirror room these years are actually used for burning.

Ning Wulou likes the pomegranates in Yecheng.

Although Ling Wanjing also liked the sweet and sour taste, he always felt that the seeds were too troublesome, so Ning Wulou lit the pomegranate on the stove and burned it for him to smell it as a spice.In the years since he left, this habit has always followed him, and he has never forgotten it.Now that Ningwu Tower is gone, even if she still loves the fragrance, Ling Wanjing will definitely not want others to bring these to her.If Bai Wei goes, even if he doesn't kill him for Baiji's sake, he will never let him live in peace.

"Bai is very grateful for the words from Taoist Yue, but... I don't know if I can ask one more question?" The first few words were enough to open people's eyes. This opportunity will frankly express the doubts that have always been in my heart, and it will also prevent me from following my habits and making mistakes in the future.

"Talk while you walk."

Blinking slightly, Yue Liujing walked forward slowly with a gentle smile, without any impatience in his words: "Mr. Bai wants to know, and he should be familiar with it, but why is what he sees different from what he sees?" Past memories are not all the same?"

Such self-cultivation behavior also made Bai Wei secretly sigh: No wonder Bai Ji always has a three-pointed pity when mentioning him. Such an understanding and wonderful person, no matter how much he knows, it should make people want to be sincere everywhere. treat each other.

Baiji has been feeling guilty all these years, presumably because this person's temper is too unbearable.

"As far as I know, although the Ye family in West Lake was created during the Shenlong period, it was not an imperial merchant before Ye Mengqiu. And before I came here, I never heard Master Ling mention this friend, even... I have never seen any records of the school of miracle doctors in the history books. What's more, the appearance of the master is also very different from what I remember..."

"My son, you can know that Buddhism has the theory of three thousand worlds, while Taoism has the theory of six realms and 36 heavens."

The weather in Wanhua is very good.The breeze is blowing slowly, accompanied by Yueliujing's clean and soft voice, as if this conversation is just a chat during a leisurely walk, which does not represent anything or indicate anything.

"At the same time, there may be the same people with different identities experiencing different things in different worlds. They may not be able to see the truth of things clearly, or they may just be framed by known boundaries."

But these two short sentences made Bai Wei silent for a long time: "...the Taoist priest means... this is not the Zhenguan I know, and the things I know and worry about may not necessarily happen? "

Perhaps it also showed that no matter how long it took, the relatives and friends he was familiar with would never appear again.

Sometimes the truth is not the scariest, but it can be the cruelest.

"Young Master is a smart man, so he doesn't need too much advice from others." Yue Liujing just walked quietly beside Bai Wei, with a clean and innocent smile, and his fingertips hidden in his sleeves, and he didn't know if it was kindness or something. Cold reminder.

"It's just that I have another sentence, hope that the young master will take it to heart. A person, no matter where he is or what his identity knows, don't try to change the fate of a dynasty. Because all you know is that the life wheel of heaven is willing to let you go. You know, the result of talking too much for a while is often only harming others and yourself."

The author has something to say: The appearance of Dai Tian’s spoiler, the magic stick, is actually just a soy sauce trick, mainly to explain to Brother Hua (everyone) the various wrong foreshadowings that have been planted before this article. _(:з」∠)_

In fact, as I said before, Elder Sun doesn’t look like much, the school of genius doctors didn’t appear in the history that Brother Hua knows, the Ye family doesn’t hide swords but is super rich, etc., etc., all because... Brother Hua, he Not only the wrong era, but also the wrong world.

The world Bai Xiaoliu and the others live in is not Jiansan's world, nor is it the real world, so it's very peaceful here, as long as Brother Hua doesn't mess around, basically there won't be any Anshi chaos or the like.

[ps: The last thing I want to say is that in this world, there are not only ordinary people like Baiji, but also magic sticks like the vulgar Daoyue Liujing, and even sects of cultivation and ghosts and ghosts.It's just because the boundaries are very clear and basically belong to a state of non-interference, so it still looks very ordinary and peaceful. 】

[PS's PS: That's basically it. If you have any questions, please let me know in the comments. I'll try my best to write it clearly. 】
