[Lu Xiaofeng] Looking at the sea by leaning on flowers

It's spring, the branches are green and the flowers are blooming early.In the morning breeze, the rich fragrance floats all over the courtyard.A big bird with a gray back and a white neck leisurely strolls among the flowers, occasionally flaps its wings contentedly, and lowers its head to peck its feathers with its beak.

"Is Uncle Hua feeling better?" In the small building, a young man with four eyebrows was reclining lazily on his seat and asked the gentleman across from him.

Hua Manlou smiled slightly, with warmth on his face: "It's nothing serious, Canghai's prescription is very effective, and the poison on Dad's body has been cured, and he drinks a bowl of nourishing soup every day. Now he is full of energy, not as good as a young man." People are poor." Turning his head to look at the peregrine falcon in the garden, "I received another bottle of beauty pills this morning, and Cang Hai said that this pill can nourish blood and nourish Qi, prolong life, so Dad can take it with peace of mind."

"She really cares about you," Lu Xiaofeng sighed with a smile, and said with some regret, "she just refuses to stay for you."

Hua Manlou's expression was faint: "She is well-known and devoted to Taoism. If she continues to stay in Hua's family, she will not be happy if her reputation is not right."

Lu Xiaofeng burst out laughing: "It's not easy to get a good name. You can marry Li Canghai home. According to me, she is so young, beautiful, and capable, so why bother to convert to Taoism."

Hua Manlou shook his head: "Everyone has their own desires, how can we force them?"

"When did I, Lu Xiaofeng, force myself to be better than others?" Looking at Huamanlou's dejected look, Lu Xiaofeng sighed, "You are all my friends, if I didn't see that you two have feelings for each other, how could I deliberately embarrass you? Huamanlou Lou, you are gentle and considerate, but when it comes to the relationship between men and women, sometimes you can't be so particular about it."

Hua Manlou smiled wryly: "I don't want to make things difficult for her." It was the first time he was tempted, and he had tasted the taste of love. Who wouldn't want to be greedy for more, but Li Canghai's attitude was so firm and stubborn that he couldn't do it at all.What's more, although he doesn't worry about blindness, he knows that incompleteness is incompleteness, and he may not be a good match for ordinary women.

"One or two, the words are insincere, let me say something." Lu Xiaofeng sighed loudly, "Look at me, Lu Xiaofeng, I just do what I think, woman with good wine, so happy! This is what I call happy."

Hearing this, Hua Manlou smiled: "That's why you always have so many troubles."

"I don't look for trouble, but trouble will always find me." After laughing, Lu Xiaofeng asked seriously, "Just give up like this, are you really willing?"

Not reconciled, but what can I do?Hua Manlou responded silently.

"Li Canghai's pursuit of Taoism is not very reliable." Lu Xiaofeng stroked his beard, "Not to mention anything else, her troublesome appearance can easily cause trouble. Even if she is not in the happy school Going down the mountain, doesn't she have any brothers and sisters? In the secret room, you heard that she has a senior sister, and it's normal to have another senior brother. Think about it, if one day she has a mortal heart and doesn't want to be immortal Asked, marrying someone else, don't you regret it?"

Hua Manlou was taken aback.

Lu Xiaofeng was very worried about Huamanlou: "Although Li Canghai is a little bit both good and evil, but I can see clearly that she has a pure heart, you care about her very much, and she is really good to you. As friends, I hope you are together, And when you get married, Uncle Hua won't be so worried about you."

Hua Manlou smiled helplessly: "You came to drink with me today just to talk about the matter between me and Cang Hai?" I have to say, Lu Xiaofeng can speak eloquently, and his thoughts were shaken by what he said.

Lu Xiaofeng put on a bitter face: "I've been hiding from someone recently."

"A woman." Hua Manlou chuckled, and said with certainty, "And she's a very beautiful woman."

"Hey, very beautiful." Lu Xiaofeng stroked his beard with a reminiscing expression, "I've never seen such a beautiful woman before."

Hua Manlou sighed with a smile: "I remember this sentence, you used to describe the sea."

Lu Xiaofeng pretended to complain: "No matter how beautiful Li Canghai is, only you can think about it. What's more, she is dressed in a Taoist uniform all day long, she is neither male nor female, and once she shows that terrifying life and death talisman, how dare I Treat her like a woman."

Hua Manlou joked: "If she listens to what you said, she might become interested and let you feel the taste of a life and death talisman."

Lu Xiaofeng trembled all over, rubbed his arms, and said repeatedly: "Hua Manlou, don't talk nonsense, you shouldn't be like this if you value sex over friends! There is no antidote for her life and death talisman, tsk, you didn't Going to the prison to see what iron shoes look like, there is really no way to survive and no way to die."

Hua Manlou shook his head, and then continued to ask: "Don't you always like beautiful women the most? Why are you avoiding her this time?"

"Pretty women are the most troublesome." Lu Xiaofeng affirmed, "Very troublesome."

Hua ManLou smiled, and probably knew what was going on, the four-browed Lu XiaoFeng's reputation was not in vain, he could be found for good and evil, conspiracies and schemes.

"Hey, that big gray bird is the peregrine falcon left behind by Li Canghai, right?" Lu Xiaofeng asked suddenly.

Hua Manlou nodded.

"It seems that you have been in touch with Li Canghai all along." Lu Xiaofeng smirked, but he hadn't forgotten that Li Canghai had just sent the pills.

The friend's joke made Hua Manlou blush, and there was a hint of crimson on her gentle face.The so-called love is insincere.At the beginning Li Canghai said that he would keep this falcon just in case, but in fact, after the other party brought some medicine with a peregrine falcon, he wrote several letters to her as a reason to thank her.After getting the other party's reply, I couldn't restrain myself. After seven or eight months, I wrote more than a dozen letters...

Lu Xiaofeng didn't miss the change in his friend's expression, he laughed and said, "I know you're an upright gentleman, so you've been sneaking around for a long time."

Hua Manlou sighed silently: Lu Xiaofeng was right, he was really unwilling to let go, and he didn't want to regret it in the future, so he couldn't help himself and insisted on keeping in touch with that woman, but it seemed that this was all he could do... Li Canghai's reply, words Simple, alienated and polite, it is inevitable to be decadent.But this was the only connection they had, and he was reluctant to break it off.

Seeing his friend's reaction, Lu Xiaofeng took a sip of fine wine, thoughtfully, and suddenly said: "Hua Man Lou, lend me that peregrine falcon."

Hua Manlou rarely hesitated to ask: "What are your plans?" After all, there was only one person that Peregrine Falcon could contact.

"Don't worry," Lu Xiaofeng said with a smile, "When did I, Lu Xiaofeng, ever do something really difficult to make friends with? I have my own magic for this big bird."

Hua Manlou responded with a smile, Lu Xiaofeng was originally Li Canghai's friend.

Wuliang Mountain, Lingbo Cave.

Li Canghai was standing next to the clear stream, playing the jade flute. Suddenly, she heard the sound of birds and feathers, and there was a slight ripple in the heart lake, and then she immediately calmed down again, letting the peregrine falcons circle around the mouth of the stream. Greet the messenger.

Slowly pulling out the letter paper, her expression was indifferent. The complicated emotions of a few months ago, under the practice of these months, became less and less day by day.It's just casually unfolding the letter, in fact, I probably have some understanding of the content of the letter in my heart.

——Hua Manlou's letters, strictly adhering to the gift of a friend, are mostly anecdotes, occasional news from the world, and of course, the consistent concern for her.

This time she was wrong.The letter paper was unfolded, and after seeing the contents clearly, his heart suddenly felt like a lake and sea, and thousands of waves were caught off guard. The cultivation of the mind in the past few months seemed to be deceiving oneself and others.All kinds of emotions, entanglements and entanglements, thousands of soldiers and huge waves, rushed straight into the prison.

When she calmed down a bit, she knew that this letter was not sent by Hua Manlou, and that the one who made such a move must be that troublemaker Lu Xiaofeng.

The content in Credible is indeed written by Hua Manlou.In the letter, there is only one picture with a line of words beside it.

The woman in the painting is [-]% similar to her. The Taoist costume and dress, especially the tear mole under the right eye, all show that the person in the painting is Li Canghai.And that line of words, few and simple, easily exposes the artist's mood: "Those who look at the sea are hard to see as water."

Holding the letter paper tightly, Li Canghai seemed to be happy or sad. This picture and a line of words made her completely sure of Hua Manlou's feelings, and suddenly understood her own feelings.

The indifference of the past few months is just deliberate suppression, trying to forget!It almost succeeded, if Lu Xiaofeng hadn't come out of the blue and sent this calligraphy and painting.

Writing is like a person, drawing facial expressions... Just looking at the calligraphy and painting like this, she can imagine the expression of that person when drawing and the mood when writing.

Li Canghai suddenly felt at a loss.

The way of heaven is merciless and merciless.She wholeheartedly pursues the Tao, and knows that she doesn't need to deliberately suppress her emotions, so she has joys and dislikes, makes friends, and makes enemies...but these don't include the love between men and women.

Because, the taboo of practice is to fall into emotional barriers. Since ancient times, how much greed, anger, ignorance, love, evil, and desires have all originated from this love between men and women. , the mind and soul are uncertain, so they rely on the illusory Taoism, but seek to get rid of the five human desires.

Even her untimely death was caused by being involved in the love and hatred of her parents, and she suffered innocently.

In this way, how can she not be obsessed with getting rid of the world of mortals and pursuing the way of heaven, and how can she not be afraid of being trapped in love and not being able to escape.It's just that Li Canghai has never experienced the feeling of being tempted, so when facing Huamanlou, the occasional strong emotions caught her off guard and avoided her like a snake.

It's a pity, if you want to, you can't help it.The more she wanted to get rid of and forget, the suppressed emotions would surge up more intensely, and the slightest stimulation would be out of control.

"Go and see him!" Li Canghai murmured, she is not an indecisive person, nor does she want to solve problems by evading, and her ups and downs are not suitable for practice. It is better to follow your heart than to be enchanted.

Although Lu Xiaofeng was a bit out of tune, he seldom did anything ignorant to his friends. Since he sent this calligraphy and painting, she went to see her old friend again.The mountains and rivers are back, maybe after such a long time, seeing Huamanlou again, some emotions and some problems can be solved.

Having made this determination, Li Canghai suddenly felt relieved, and smiled slightly, thinking, these days, he really got into a dead end and became confused.

It's springtime, and a hundred flowers bloom in the small building.Hua Manlou sat upstairs, persistently brushing, drawing carefully and slowly. On the paper, there was a portrait of a person, wearing a Taoist robe and a scarf. His indistinguishable appearance made it difficult for people to tell whether it was a man or a woman .

There is a smile on the corner of the young master's lips, and the sharp point of the brush is a little gentle, so that under the right eye of the portrait, there is a mole, which modifies the dignified and beautiful face of the person in the painting into a slightly seductive look.

That day after Lu Xiaofeng mysteriously sent a letter with a peregrine falcon and left, Hua Manlou had a very strange intuition, and then found that one of the portraits he drew was missing, and the missing one was the one he was most satisfied with personally. one of.Of course he knew the whereabouts of the painting. In the past few days, he was in a rare uneasy mood. He was a little worried that the woman he liked would be abrupt, but he couldn't deny that he was actually looking forward to something.

The ink was dry, and he gently rolled up the painting, thinking about putting it away carefully, when he suddenly heard a rush of footsteps on the stairs.

A seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl hurried upstairs with a panicked expression and shortness of breath. She gasped and asked, "Someone is chasing me from behind, can I hide with you?"
