Longevity: The Flawless Dream

The air in the early morning is filled with a wet and sweet smell, the green grass is still dewy, and the fresh green color is almost flowing.Qing Linjian was carrying a pipa on her back, and her shoes and socks were soaked in dew, which felt cool to the touch.After the familiar hut appeared far away at the end of his sight, he stopped in his tracks.

Between the greenery everywhere and half an expanse of mist, Alandia is picking fish.

She wrapped her hair with a piece of black cloth, rolled up her trousers, and tied up her cuffs. She looked more and more radiant, with slender limbs. Hidden behind the hazy morning light and mist, she seemed not like a real person.Bai Shengsheng's ankles were immersed in the water, and with the rise and fall of the water waves, they separated and separated into ever-changing blurred halos.The hand holding the sharpened branch was slender but smooth and powerful. It suddenly rose high and fell, with a slight but crisp sound of a hard tool penetrating into the flesh. When it was raised again, there was already a trembling fish on the branch.

There was a charming smile on her pearly lips.

She mistakenly saw Qing Linjian who was standing there in a daze, smiled and waved to him from a distance: "Master Daoist, you are finally here!"

Just as she was screaming, she didn't even have time to put on her shoes and socks, so she ran over barefoot, waving her hands as she ran, as if she was afraid that others would not see her.The white water drops slipped from her body and splashed among the green vines, the thick color was as close to Qing Linjian's eyes, and in the blink of an eye, he seemed to be transformed into the dying carp, unable to move around. I fell into a beautiful vortex by myself.Unable to struggle, unable to even generate the will to break free.I just don't know if it's because of the imminent coming of the colorful illusion, or because of the indifference and danger lurking behind.

Such a feeling is definitely not a good omen for a Xuanzong Taoist who is proficient in wind learning.

"Daoist, you are here. There is no one here, and there is no one to talk to for half a month. I am getting bored." Alandia stood still in front of him, tilting her head. Said with a smile.If it was said that she still felt a little intimidated when facing Qing Linjian at the beginning, since the former washed her many times and chopped firewood for her many times, the great awe has dissipated.

With such a half-joyed and half-annoyed smile from her, Qing Linjian has long forgotten the previous sense of ominousness, and instead feels quite guilty: "People in my family often practice in secluded places, and they have not spoken or spoken for many years. Interacting with people is a common thing, at that time... I didn't think it through, sorry."

"You Taoist priests can really endure loneliness..." Alandia sighed faintly, unable to tell whether it was surprise or something else.Qing Linjian was stunned.Can you stand alone?The so-called loneliness is nothing more than the love for the gathering, which is born out of greed, resentment, parting injury, loneliness and other emotional sequences.

Indeed, he never felt that there was anything wrong with a pure and ascetic life.Loneliness is an unfamiliar concept to him.Or, it's just because he has never met a loved one who makes him long to be together.

While he was in a trance, Alandia saw the pipa behind him, and her eyes lit up immediately: "Master..." Ever since she figured out Qing Linjian's sheepish temper, the mischievousness that belonged to a witch has grown on her day by day. For so many days, this was the first time she spoke to him so respectfully, so respectfully that it was even flattering.

The intentionally soft tone was so soft that water could be wrung out, no matter how hard-hearted people are, they might not turn into soft-hearted people.Obviously, Qing Linjian was still far from the realm of hard heart, he almost took off the pipa and handed it over in a somewhat embarrassed gesture.Alandia smiled triumphantly, dried her hands carefully, took the pipa and hugged it in her arms, brushed the deep green strings from top to bottom with her fingertips affectionately, and sighed a little.

For the sake of safety, all the belongings of the prisoners of war in the Demon Realm were confiscated and sealed up, and Alandia's pipa was no exception—she had been separated from her beloved pipa for more than half a year.When Dao Demons are hostile, this is understandable. Compared with the way the Demon Realm handles the burning and massacre of human beings, Xuanzong's methods are too lenient. However, looking at her sad expression, Qing Linjian still feels guilty. .

The five-tone music that entertains the mind and nourishes the mind should not be confused with right and wrong.And I clearly understand this, but still become a person who burns zithers and cooks cranes. This is far more hateful than someone who doesn't understand.

Alandia plucked the strings of the zither, the tune was very gentle, and it was deeply heard, but there was clearly a bit of confusing burning sadness floating there.At the end of the song, she hugged the pipa and bowed her head in silence, she didn't know what she thought of, and the side face of Yan Yan showed Xiao Ran who was not interested.

"Daozhang, can I... know your name?" With a soft voice, the girl Yan Wan's eyes faintly glistened with tears.

Qing Linjian didn't answer. For the first time in his life, he felt fear in front of a young woman.

Alandia held her breath and waited, but he remained silent for a long time, as if all the self-esteem in her life was exhausted in this waiting, she hugged the pipa tightly, and her voice was messed up and broken by the sudden loss of control: " How long will it take for me to go home, how long will it take! I hate this place, I have no companions who can talk, no beloved pipa, nothing but mountains, nothing but water! I can’t do anything—except nothing Waiting day and night for a human being who doesn't even know his name!"

"Eluhua!" Qing Linjian shouted softly.

The groans of collapse came to an abrupt end, and Alandia raised Qing Linjian's pipa and threw it at it. Qing Linjian caught it in a daze: "What's the name of that song just now?"

Alandia wiped her tears and turned her back. After a while, she whispered a word with an inexplicable meaning.

"What do you mean?" Qing Linjian's heart skipped a beat for no reason.

Alandia did not answer.And Qing Linjian didn't ask any more questions.In fact, even if she didn't say it, he was vaguely aware of the meaning of that word - he shouldn't ask any more, he shouldn't come here again, from the beginning, he shouldn't see her.

"I have been reading the book given to me by the priest these days, and there is a paragraph that is very close to its meaning." Just as Qing Linjian was about to withdraw, Alandia opened her mouth, but she still turned her back angrily. Staring at him, never glanced in his direction.

"Oh?" Rao's rationality repeatedly told Qing Linjian not to ask any more questions, but his heart involuntarily made him press on.

"Qingqing Zijin, care about my heart, even if I don't go, Zining won't say a word?" She said, her side face was hidden in the shadow by her profuse sideburns, no one knew her expression at the moment.

Qinglin appraised it.

The wind rolled his bamboo-green sleeves, and the ubiquitous and torrential torrent submerged him, sinking, unable to help himself.

"My name is Qinglinjian." He suddenly said, "In the dream, in the mirror, and in the water, there is heaven and earth."

Alandia is fishing, Alandia is cutting clothes, Alandia is picking fruit, Alandia is planting rice seedlings, Alandia is singing, Alandia is playing the pipa...

There are always some people, when you meet her, you will fall into a catastrophe.After only half a year of acquaintance with Alandia, the heaven and earth of Qing Linjian were completely occupied by this beautiful demon girl.When she was there, his eyes were full of her; when she was not, his mind was full of her.Her frowns and smiles swayed in his eyes, her words swayed in his ears, her eye waves sparkled in dreams, mirrors, and water, and her smiles bloomed in every petal and every leaf. In the light and shadow of the leaf rotation.

Some Taoists asked: "Master Qing, don't you feel that your mind has been distracted recently?"

Someone said hesitantly, "Master Qing, have you been... getting too close to that witch lately?"

Qing Linjian closed the file.

The author has something to say: What Alandia said is actually a Sanskrit word, which is related to document software, and it cannot be entered at all. In short, it means "missing"
