Biography of Xi Shan

With the dawn of the morning, the heavy rain gradually stopped, the birds chirped cheerfully, and the dazzling light came in through the crack of the door.

Zhou Wutong's eyelids twitched, and he opened his sour eyes. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a pair of clean cloth shoes. He looked along the upper at night, and saw a boy with a round face squatting in front of him and blinking curiously. Looking at those black grape-like eyes.

Zhou Wutong was startled, and sat up abruptly. The boy just smiled at him, and then ran towards Chen Daozhen.

Zhou Wutong usually sees rough guys who are five big and three rough. Even the young juniors in the sect are calm and sophisticated. Where has he seen such a delicate and cute boy? I thought this was a young man who read and recited poems.

Zhou Wutong scratched his head in embarrassment, walked over to say hello: "Zhou Wutong from Xiaqingshan faction, thank you for the firewood last night."

Jing Ji smiled and said, "You're welcome to send Jing Ji to Xiaxi Mountain."

"Xishan School!" Zhou Wutong opened his eyes wide in surprise, "You are a disciple of Xishan School!"

Jing Ji nodded: "That's right, I'm a disciple of the Xishan School."

Zhou Wutong was almost dancing with excitement: "It is rumored that the martial arts of the Xishan School are the most accomplished in the world, and practitioners can live forever. The disciples of the Xishan School are all handsome and immortal. It is a pleasure to meet you."

Jing Ji laughed straight, "I'm so proud of the prize, it's just for strengthening the body, there's no such thing as immortality."

"But I heard that the ancestor is over 100 years old." Zhou Wutong became more and more excited as he talked, wishing he could follow Jing Ji back to the Xishan School, to see that rumored fairyland-like place on earth.

However, at this moment Zhou Wentong was looking in the direction of the candle stand, frowning. There was no trace of the big man there except for a pool of solidified blood. She glanced at him with an expression of nothing to do with herself.

Zhou Wutong chatted with Jing Ji for a while, and he was in a high mood. He asked, "Where is Brother Jing going?"

Jing Ji said: "Brother Chen and I are going to the martial arts conference, how about you?"

Zhou Wutong was very happy, and he hurriedly said: "We will do something for Master, and then we will go to the martial arts conference to meet with him. It seems that we can meet again soon. By the way, will the Xishan faction attend this martial arts event?" General Assembly?"

Jing Ji said: "Probably not. Master has a destiny. If it is not a matter of the life and death of the martial arts, otherwise he will not participate in any martial arts affairs. Although my master is the head of the sect, my master does not care about it." I like to get involved in the rivers and lakes."

Zhou Wutong felt a little regretful.

Jing Ji chatted with him a few more words, and after saying goodbye, he got on his horse and left.

"Xiao Wu, don't look, let's go." Zhou Wentong tugged at his clothes with a helpless expression on his face.

Zhou Wutong said: "The disciples of the Xishan School really look different from us."

Zhou Wentong sighed and said, "The Xishan School is not as mysterious as the rumors. The Xishan School has few disciples, and they don't participate in Jianghu affairs. They spread it so mysteriously over time. Look at that kid, he's just a showman, and he doesn't have much talent."

Zhou Wutong frowned and said in disapproval: "Not everyone has martial arts talent. Brother Jing also said that the Xishan School focuses on physical fitness. You can't just judge people by their martial arts."

Zhou Wentong: "..."

Zhou Wutong rolled his eyes at him, and left angrily.

Zhou Wentong followed up helplessly, seeing that his younger brother seemed to be very smart, but in fact he was lacking in roots, simple at best, and stupid at worst.

The morning mist wrapped around the entire wilderness, and in the mist, a red figure appeared on the roof of the ruined temple.

The man was dressed in red, with cold eyes. He looked at the direction where Jing Ji was leaving, and a faint smile curled up on the corner of his mouth. With just a smile, he seemed to have the appearance of alluring the city, and the appearance of harming the country.

"Jing Ji... Heh, just wait for me!"

Chen Daozhen and Jing Ji came to a small town not far away, had breakfast on the way, and then leisurely found an inn to stay.

The two asked for an upper room on the second floor. The room was not big but very clean. You could see the yard when you opened the window. Jing Ji stood by the window and stretched out, and saw a four or five-year-old doll standing in front of her. Sitting on a small bench, he is not afraid of people passing by around him. Right now, he is freely biting a candied haws, his big eyes are bulging, and he rubs the corners of his mouth with his hands from time to time. His appearance is so cute. .

Jing Ji swallowed, Chen Daozhen couldn't laugh or cry: "What's so good about candied haws?"

Jing Ji licked his mouth and asked, "Is it delicious?"

"I'll buy it for you later, you'll know when you eat it." Chen Daozhen patted his head, and went out to ask the waiter to deliver water.

The storm last night, the two spent the night in the ruined temple, their bodies were already very sticky and dirty, Xiaoer brought hot water up, and the two took off their clothes on the spot and simply wiped their bodies with water.

Chen Daozhen pursed his lips, and glanced at the young man indistinctly. The young man was slender, his whole body was white and rosy, his skin was like creamy fat, and even that part was white and rosy.Chen Daozhen took a deep breath and turned around with difficulty.

However, Jing Ji didn't notice it, walked up to Chen Daozhen with a smile, stretched out his hand, touched his muscular arm, and said with a smile: "Brother Chen looks skinny in clothes, but he is actually very strong."

Chen Daozhen kept silent and hurriedly put on his clothes.

Seeing that Chen Dao really ignored him, Jing Ji also felt bored, put on his clothes slowly, and said, "Shall we go now?"

Chen Daozhen was puzzled and asked, "Where?"

"Eat candied haws." Jing Ji looked at him as a matter of course, like a greedy cat.

Chen Daozhen couldn't help laughing, and said in a doting tone that he didn't realize: "Okay, I'll buy it for you if you want to eat."

Jing Ji hugged Chen Daozhen happily, and when Chen Daozhen looked down, he saw the young man's clothes spread out in a mess, revealing a snow-white chest. He pulled the young man's clothes helplessly, and cursed in a low voice, "I don't look good!"

Jing Ji looked down at Senior Brother Chen's slender fingers lightly pulling his belt and tying it into a knot nimbly. For some reason, he blushed and felt very hot.

Chen Daozhen looked at him with a smile, and couldn't help leaning towards him. Just as he was about to kiss the young man on the cheek, he saw the young man's eyes suddenly widen, and his eyeballs rolled around, "It's such a familiar voice."

Jing Ji turned around and went to the window, and saw the two brothers of the Zhou family standing in the yard talking to the waiter. They exchanged a few words, and the waiter led them into a room on the first floor.

Jing Ji regretted, "I haven't had time to talk to Xiao Wu yet."

Chen Daozhen kept a dark face and said nothing.

At this moment, another group of people came in from the yard. They were dressed in sackcloth and filial piety, and someone was carrying a coffin behind them.The waiter in the shop said something anxiously, and then hurriedly left with the little boy in the yard.

The few people stood there looking around, after a while, the shop waiter saw off the boy and came back with the shopkeeper.The leader was a middle-aged woman. With tears in her eyes, the woman begged the shopkeeper for a few words, but the shopkeeper waved her hands helplessly and let go.

Jing Ji frowned, "It's so weird."

Chen Daozhen said: "Probably someone died in the family, and the body should be sent back to the hometown."

Jing Ji was still frowning, he said: "The woman told the shopkeeper that there is no dead person in the coffin, only her husband's clothes, but look at the coffin, it is not tightly closed."

"It's so far away that you can hear clearly."

"Vague." Jing Ji said, "Look at the people who carried the coffin, their steps were stilted and their hands were trembling. It can be seen that the coffin should be very heavy. Why didn't the coffin boards be closed properly for no reason? It couldn't be because they were caught Did the wind blow away?" Jing Ji tilted his head, rubbing his chin and thinking leisurely.

Chen Daozhen covered his eyes and said: "Don't think about it, let's go and eat candied haws."

"By the way, candied haws!" Jing Ji was shocked, and was immediately distracted, and hurriedly dragged Chen Daozhen out.

The two of them walked around the street, but they didn't see any candied haws hawkers. They were about to turn back in low spirits, but they saw a fat monk with a round head staggering towards the end of the street. There are grass poles, with bright red and round candied haws inserted on it.

The great monk stopped beside the two of them, sized up his eyes, and said softly, "Candied haws, delicious candied haws."

Jing Ji smiled and said, "Are you a monk? Why are you selling candied haws here?"

The great monk stroked his shiny forehead, laughed loudly and said, "He's a monk without hair? It's so rare for a young hero."

Jing Ji smiled apologetically, and scratched his face in embarrassment.

Standing behind Jing Ji, Chen Daozhen glared at him viciously.

The drunkard sighed aggrievedly, and thought, didn't I say nothing?This is simply not short-sighted, it is simply unreasonable.

Jing Ji asked, "How do you sell this candied haws?"

The drunkard head chuckled: "My candied haws are not for sale. If you want to eat this candied haws, please treat me to a drink."

Jing Ji smiled and said, "You're really good at calculating. Forget it, I won't eat any more. If I have this spare time to ask you for candied haws, I might as well talk to Senior Brother Chen."

Chen Daozhen raised the corner of his mouth.

The drunkard spat in his heart, what is the moon before the bottle, I think it must be the moon before the flower, his little master is really, when he meets this kid, he immediately puts his business behind him, look at what he has done in the past month What, actually accompanied this little devil.

Jing Ji made a gesture to leave, but the drunkard hurriedly said, "Don't, don't, don't, I'll give you all the candied haws, all of them."

Jing Ji blinked: "That's okay, I'll just pay, how much?"

The drunkard patted his head and said: "I can't take this money, you just take this candied haws, or else I'm going to be in big trouble." As he spoke, he glanced at Chen Daozhen indistinctly.

Jing Ji asked suspiciously, "What does this mean?"

"We'll meet again next time, and you'll understand." The drunkard stuffed a whole pole of candied haws into Jingji's hands, and the next moment there was wind under his feet, and he disappeared without a trace.

Jing Ji held the stick of candied haws at a loss, "Senior Brother Chen, have we met an expert from outside the world?"

Chen Daozhen sneered: "It's just a bum."

Jing Ji: "..."

At this time, a three or four-year-old baby came over, the little baby bit her fingers and raised her face to look at Jing Ji, with crystal water stains dripping from the corner of her mouth.

Jing Ji winked at the child: "Here, take it and eat it." He just handed out the candied haws, and immediately a group of half-sized children surrounded Jing Ji, and Chen Daozhen was squeezed come out.

Chen Daozhen looked at this group of little bean sprouts displeasedly, but he couldn't do anything.

Jing Ji was squeezed by a group of children, but his smiling eyes were full of joy. Looking at Jing Ji like this, Chen Daozhen suddenly felt a little strange, but at the same time seemed very familiar.

The boy in his childhood was kind and docile, but timid and timid, which made people want to protect him. The boy now is still kind and gentle, but he has become lively and mischievous, which makes him more excited.

Jing Ji divided all the candied haws, leaving four, and he took the straw sticks to the old man who sold the buns, and exchanged some oil paper.

Jing Ji pointed to the candied haws, and Chen Dao shook his head in understanding.

Jing Ji wrapped the candied haws in oiled paper, took out one and took a slow bite, and followed Chen Daozhen towards the inn.

Instead of taking the main road, the two walked back along the small river. When they passed the back door of the inn, they saw a woman in sackcloth hurried in.

Jing Ji tilted his head: "Isn't that the woman who brought the coffin? Why did she change her clothes?"

Chen Daozhen said calmly: "This woman has martial arts, she is not an ordinary person, and the coffin is not empty, there is a big living person lying inside."

Jing Ji turned his face, looked at him and asked, "Senior Brother Chen, did you know this morning?"

Chen Daozhen said: "I also saw the clue from her walking posture and what you said before. Xiaojing, this world is very big, and everyone has different goals. Peeping, there are countless people who cocooned themselves and died without any illness, so when you see some strange people and strange things, don't feel strange, Jianghu is a strange place."

Jing Ji looked at Chen Daozhen in a daze, and asked slowly: "Brother Chen, what about you? What do you want?"

Chen Daozhen gazed into the distance, and after a long while he said softly: "I used to pursue the highest state of martial arts, but later I found that it was meaningless in itself. The world's martial arts are profound and profound. There are more important things waiting for me to pursue."

Jing Ji tilted his head and asked, "What is it?"

Chen Daozhen turned his head to look at his innocent face, those ignorant and pure eyes were full of trust.Chen Daozhen lowered his eyes and remained silent, the more innocent the young man was, the more painful he was, he couldn't bear to hurt him even a bit, let alone tell his love, he was afraid that he would become distorted and evil in the eyes of the young man.

Even now, he is just whitewashing the peace and pretending to be gentle.

Chen Daozhen hooked his lips and asked with a smile, "What about you? What do you want to pursue?"

Jing Ji was stunned, he bit his lip and thought hard.

Chen Daozhen touched his face gently, and said distressedly: "Don't think about it, you will always know in the future."

Jing Ji said slowly: "When I was young, I wanted to learn martial arts the most. I was always envious when I saw my brothers practicing martial arts, but I was born with a flaw and couldn't practice internal strength. Without internal strength, it is useless to practice swordsmanship. After a long time, I stopped. Come down. But later, my ancestor cured me. Although my martial arts are still mediocre, I am not attached to these things. When I was on the mountain, I thought every day that I could come to Chen when I was good at martial arts. The senior brothers have ventured into the rivers and lakes together."

Chen Daozhen's throat choked up, and his heart felt sore.

Jing Ji seemed a little distressed, and he continued, "But now that I'm with Senior Brother Chen, I don't seem to have anything I want. Maybe you're wrong, Senior Brother Chen. Not everyone has pursuits, but I don't. Now that's fine with me...um...couldn't be better."

Chen Daozhen didn't say a word, he stared deeply at the young man in front of him, his lips mumbled and he couldn't speak, thousands of words were choked in his throat.

Seeing that Chen Daozhen was silent, Jing Ji scratched his head in embarrassment, and said, "Senior Brother Chen thinks I'm worthless."

Chen Dao couldn't help but hugged the young man into his arms. He hugged him tightly, wishing to rub him into his own bone marrow. He opened his mouth, but his voice was hoarse and terrible. He whispered: "I There is no prospect, you are right, it is already very good now..."

Chen Daozhen's eyes were dimmed, he couldn't scare his Xiaojing away, even if they could only be together in an inexplicable relationship for the rest of their lives, even if Xiaojing didn't understand his friendship for the rest of his life, as long as Xiaojing was by his side, They can live and die together and never be separated.
