old grace

There is a high probability that the person behind the scenes who turned the python into a puppet will come, but no one knows when he will come.

At this time, it was still the first lunar month, and every family was worshiping their ancestors and reuniting.If the person who sacrificed the puppet has a family business, most of them cannot leave at will.Once it is delayed, it may be ten days and a half months later, maybe it will not be until February.

Thinking of this, Xie Qinghe returned to the temporary hut with Fu Chuan after setting a restriction on the jade armor piece.

Xie Qinghe is unhurried and unhurried, and Fu Chuan just broke through not long ago, and happened to spend a period of time in the mountains to clean up and stabilize his realm.Although killing the boa constrictor was a precept, the two still abide by the previous agreement. Before Shangyuan, they never hunted or killed animals for the sake of food and drink. They had a daily diet, practiced and played, and spent a period of leisure and care.

The milk cat transformed by Ah Shou has not grown up at all, and his intelligence is also very shallow. It is more like a human baby, sleeping for a long time every day.

Xie Qinghe has healed up from the injury he suffered from the thunder calamity long ago. He lives in the mountains leisurely, and Fu Chuan's mood has also become very good. Gradually, he forgot his anger and disgust towards A Shou, and put A Shou on his hands and knees every day. Taking a look online, I think it's not unreasonable for Yun Chao to like fluffy things.

"Lantern Festival tomorrow. Are you going hunting?" Fu Chuan asked casually.

"Hit if you want to eat." Xie Qinghe said.

He never shy away from killing. All things are born to support people. If you eat it and don't waste it, it is not considered indiscriminate killing.As for saying that because tomorrow is a festival, it is necessary to cook eight meat dishes and twelve vegetarian banquets to look grand, that is the vanity that the Hanjiang Sword Sect rejects the most.

"I don't seem to be very greedy anymore. I used to feel empty and hungry when I didn't eat some meat. These days, I ate all the bacon and ham I stocked up before, and I ate dried bamboo shoots and stewed fungus every day, and I didn't feel very hungry. ..." Fu Chuan was more concerned about Xie Qinghe's appetite, "Where's senior brother?"

"Didn't you stay in your mother's belly in the enchanted world last time? Eating with your tongue is a last resort for people to survive. Now that you have transcended the mundane, you naturally absorb the innate energy scattered between heaven and earth when you perform exercises. Eating food, blood food or not, is secondary." Xie Qinghe explained.

"I've only just made a breakthrough. Senior brother has already passed this stage, why do you still want to eat fireworks?" Fu Chuan asked.

Xie Qinghe couldn't help smiling, and said, "I practice the way of the world."

The human world is too complicated to explain. In short, it is to taste the seven emotions and not to quit the six desires.

"Master also eats." Fu Chuan asked again.

"For a period of time, the old man also did not eat the grain, and occasionally took a few Huangjing pills. Later, the first few senior brothers all died in the Fengmo Valley. The old man was really sad, and gradually resumed his diet." Xie Qinghe caressed Holding Fu Chuan's vest, he said, "It's so lonely to be a god."

Xie Qinghe didn't speak in detail, but Fu Chuan understood what the senior brother meant.

The difference between the immortal way and the human way is that the immortal way is lonely and the human way is diverse.

Manpower is limited, so they must live in settlements, help each other, and divide their labor.Once you leave the crowd, it is difficult for a person to live decently.

Cultivation is the opposite way, such as Shangguan Shiyi and Fu Chuan, once you succeed in one turn, you can immediately indica, completely cut off your desire for everything in the world, and only need the innate qi between heaven and earth to survive.

Shangguan Shiyi's six direct disciples all died in Fengmo Valley, and it can be said that all of them died in the same way. This kind of loneliness hit him hard.

He resumed eating not out of physical needs, but to find his connection with humanity, so as to drive away the loneliness in his heart.

Every monk knows how lonely and terrifying the path of practice is. It is rare to see a Taoist couple like Xie Qinghe and Fu Chuan who guard each other in daily practice, trust each other and entrust each other with confidence.Fu Chuan immediately expressed his heartfelt love to Xie Qinghe: "I will eat meat with senior brother."

Xie Qinghe couldn't help laughing: "I'm just eating with me right now. The thick oily red sauce is so fragrant, I don't know who will accompany whom."

"Then let's look for it tomorrow to see if there is any prey to hunt. Small animals are thin in winter." Fu Chuan made up his mind.

The two made an appointment to go hunting for the Lantern Festival the next day, finish their evening classes in the evening, follow the usual rules, and go to bed early.The next day, early rules, early class, breakfast, Fu passed it to Ah Shou to put on new clothes, put her in his pocket, and said: "If you are a tiger and leopard, you can help me with a pheasant and a hare or something, so Something small... don't fall asleep again in the pocket."

Ah Shou crawled around in his pocket and played with his tail for a while, and when Fu Chuan followed Xie Qinghe out, she was already sound asleep.

Xie Qinghe and Fu Chuan went hunting, more like going out for a picnic.

The two stepped on the thin snow in the mountains and walked out without leaving half a footprint.With Xie Qinghe's method, he didn't even need to take a shot when hunting, just release the Hanjiang sword ring and follow to pick up the corpses of small animals.However, it was obvious that the younger brother was very interested, and he didn't want to disappoint Fu Chuan, so he smiled and did nothing all the way, just listened carefully to Fu Chuan's chatter around him, occasionally answering a few words.

Both of them are monks who have made breakthroughs, and there is a natural response between them, so that no matter what they do, there will be no disadvantages.

Not long after he came out, Fu Chuan met several hares, two wild sheep, and spores and musk musk deer that had returned from hunting.It is not easy for the animals in winter to find food, and they are all skinny. Fu Chuan glanced at them from a distance, which alarmed the small animals to flee in a hurry, but he did not take action to chase them down.

Xie Qinghe was secretly amused, and reported the name of the dish to Fu Chuan: "Cold rabbit meat, scallion spores, yellow braised mutton, pheasant stewed dried bamboo shoots..."

"Fight, fight! Fight later!" Fu Chuan raised his hand in surrender.

After wandering around the mountains again, Fu Chuan read the menu given by the senior brother, and he did not show mercy. First, he killed a few pheasants with stones, and then met a mountain muntjac, remembering that the senior brother loves to eat Fu Chuan didn't care too much about the musk meat, so he flew up and broke his neck, and happily picked it up: "Brother, it's musk! There are actually muntjacs here!"

"Enough." Xie Qinghe said.

Fu Chuan picked up the prey and said, "Find a water source, dissect it and wash it clean before taking it home."

The two returned together, thinking that it was getting late, and Fu Chuan was unwilling to take the elder brother to slaughter the prey together, so they discussed with Xie Qinghe to split up.Xie Qinghe was asked to go home and light the fire first to prepare the ingredients. He went to the water source alone to turn the prey into meat, and then brought it back to the cabin for cooking.

This was originally a daily conversation between the two of them, but Xie Qinghe vaguely felt that it was not very good, and refused: "I will be with you."

Fu Chuan felt a little strange, so he didn't ask too much: "That's fine." He was also very happy to have the senior brother by his side.

When we reached the water source, Fu Chuan still kept Xie Qinghe away: "Brother, sit by the side for a while, and it will be ready soon. I move very quickly."

Xie Qinghe is very particular about food but does not waste money. If Xie Qinghe is asked to cook in person, he will even wash the skins of radishes and potatoes, peel them off and cook a new dish frugally.Fu Chuan lived with him all the year round, even if Xie Qinghe didn't ask him to be frugal, he would take the initiative to learn Xie Qinghe's slaughtering method, except for the detoxification organs, the prey he brought back would be discarded, and the rest of the claws and accessories should be cleaned up and cut. The deboning of the meat was done neatly, leaving almost no waste.

Fu Chuan, who had dealt with the prey, was sinking his head into cleaning up the mess when he suddenly heard a clear and sweet girl's voice: "Brother Jisheng!"

The sound of a dog that day...Fu Chuan slowly raised his head, and through the narrow mountain stream, he saw that he was running happily towards the stream, and the thin snow on the narrow hillside rustled under his feet. The "Girl in White Clothes" who rolls and crawls - Shi Bufan!

He and Shi Bufan had only been in Fairy Mountain for two years.

For Fu Chuan, these short two years have already mixed two lives, nearly a hundred years old.

It's like an eternity.

Shi Bufan was brought up as a daughter since he was a child, and his movements and gestures are no different from those of women. He even used countless methods to restrict the development of his bone body and stature, and firmly guarded the secret of being born as a man.He still looks like a green girl now, wearing a snow-white fur dress and shamelessly dotted with childish pompoms in his hair—not only is he disguised as a woman, he is also tender!

Fu Chuan was nearly 23 years old, and Shi Bufan, who was four years older than Fu Chuan, was 26 and above, but he was dressed like a 16-year-old girl.

He slid to the edge of the mountain stream excitedly, and rushed towards Fu Chuan without hesitation: "Brother Jisheng!"

This person took it for granted and left no room for retreat.If Fu Chuan refused, he would either fall into the cold mountain stream soaked in winter, or be kicked by Fu Chuan back to the slippery muddy ground opposite.Fu Chuan hesitated for a moment, then stretched out a hand to catch him, and helped him stand firmly.

Shi Bufan was rejected, his eyes were full of sadness: "Are you still angry with me?"

Fu Chuan was speechless for a while.

He and Shi Bufan broke up at Fairy Mountain, and was tortured by Shi Bufan's love gu to the point of dying. He hid in the space to recuperate for half a year before he dared to return to the sect to return to his life.However, Fu Chuan did not resent Shi Bufan.

He made an appointment with Shi Bufan to try to love each other, but he underestimated his bottom line and tore up the contract temporarily.

At that time, he vomited directly on Shi Bufan's body, which was also a great humiliation to Shi Bufan.

Fu Chuan admits he was wrong.

Now Shi Bufan, who has been missing for two years, suddenly appeared and still entangled him with the same enthusiasm as before. He knew in his heart that there would never be any ambiguity, and it was even impossible to be friends with Shi Bufan again, but he still knew that he was sorry for Shi Bufan.

"Why are you here?" Fu Chuan looked Shi Bufan up and down, "People in the village have been looking for you."

Shi Bufan raised his head with an expression of "I don't want to answer", and looked at Fu Chuan's face with a smile: "Why are you here?" Xie Qinghe, who never stepped forward, said, "Is he the big brother you talk about? He looks so handsome, who wouldn't be moved by seeing him?"

When the topic turned to Xie Qinghe, Fu Chuan became angry. He covered Shi Bufan's pink and fair girlish face, pushed him back, and reprimanded him: "You know some rules! You are rude in front of my senior brother!" , give you some guts!"

Shi Bufan was often chased away by him when he was in Miaojiang, and he didn't care about being pushed rudely by him, and said with a smile: "I was wrong. Why don't you introduce me? The cold mountain is far away. I have no virtue to pay a visit to the mountain. , we met by chance in the rivers and lakes, let me kowtow to Daoist Xie."

Fu Chuan felt deeply embarrassed.

Originally, Xie Qinghe was not as airy as Shangguan Shiyi. He liked to walk the streets and alleys when he practiced the human way, and he could chat with the common people in the market.

The problem is, Xie Qinghe knows all about the mess between him and Shi Bufan.The Yulu tea that Shi Bufan gave him was boiled by him and Xie Qinghe drank it, and the two were unhappy about it.He ran to find Shi Bufan to settle accounts, and Xie Qinghe asked about what the two of them had done in the cave under the cliff of Fairy Mountain....

Ladies from well-known families and chivalrous women from all walks of life in Jianghu come to show their love and propose marriage. They are all hypocritical fake peach blossoms.Fu Chuan wasn't worried.

But, people are getting angry, wouldn't it be more embarrassing if you don't take it to see the elder brother?

"You should be more polite." Fu Chuan warned, after all, he still wanted to lure people to the shore.

Shi Bufan followed Fu Chuan obediently like a curious little daughter-in-law, and then quietly poked out half of his head from the cover of Fu Chuan's figure to see Xie Qinghe's expression and appearance.Fu Chuan was very upset!Senior brother and I are together, you are an outsider!

"Eldest brother, this is..." Fu Chuan introduced to Xie Qinghe with a firm head.

"The current witch in Lanquezhai, little friend Shi Bufan." Xie Qinghe accurately identified him.

Just when Shi Bufan was about to come forward to pay respects, Xie Qinghe suddenly gave Fu Chuan a hand.

Xie Qinghe had discussed with Fu Chuan about not making a public couple beforehand, Fu Chuan had always been very polite in front of others, and now he obediently stood by with his hands down as a disciple.Being taken by Xie Qinghe, Fu Chuan somehow stuck to Xie Qinghe's side.Xie Qinghe never hugged and held hands, but just pulled him, and the atmosphere was completely different.

——When receiving foreign guests, the person standing at the side of the host is either the wife or the son.

Shi Bufan was obviously surprised, looked at Xie Qinghe, then at Fu Chuan, his eyes were filled with turmoil, and he didn't hide it seriously.He has always regarded himself as a woman, and gave salutes as women's salutes. At this moment, he forgot to bend his knees, and asked Xie Qinghe first: "It must not be me who made a mistake. Master Xie is disregarding the principles of decent human relations, and brother Jisheng Are you married?"

Fu Chuan had told him not to talk nonsense, but he dared to provoke him face to face, and suddenly became mad: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Xie Qinghe held his hand, beckoning him not to rush, and said to Shi Bufan: "He and I are Taoist companions."

Shi Bufan stared at Fu Chuan's face, and asked crisply, "Don't Taoist companions sleep together?"

"Private affairs in the boudoir should not be discussed casually. The relationship between Shi Xiaoyou and the younger brother is different. Xie made an exception to answer you today. The fairy road is ethereal, and the Taoist companion is the most intimate and trustworthy person in the world. He and I not only We sleep together, we eat together, we practice together, and after life, we stay together before death. We will be buried in the same pit after death." Xie Qinghe said slowly.
