Peach blossoms on the Kunlun pond

Yang Jian returned to Yuquan Mountain alone, stood at the entrance of Jinxia Cave, and hesitated for a while looking at the dark cave entrance.It was already dark, and the mouth of the unlit cave seemed to have a big mouth open, waiting for Yang Jian to fill its stomach.This is the second day he worshiped the entrance wall, only two days, he caused so much trouble for Master Yuding, even though he was framed, he didn't know how to deal with the master he had only known for a few days .What would Daoist Yuding say?Will fly into a rage?Yang Jian imagined Yuding's face that never seemed to have any expression, and shook his head.Perhaps, he would just wave his fly whisk and say, "You go, don't come back again."

Yang Jian didn't know how long he stood there, until a scream broke his stupefied, it was the voice of real Yuding.He hurriedly ran into the cave, and saw the Taoist who always seemed to have just woken up squatting on the ground, clutching his left thumb and about to cry. There were more than a dozen scattered bamboo slips on the ground.Seeing Yang Jian running in, Daoist Yuding grinned, and the words he said were crying: "Hand, it was cut." Yang Jian looked at the scraper at Yuding's feet, and immediately understood that this Taoist was in the cave. He was so engrossed in reading the book that he forgot to turn on the lamp, so that when he scratched the typo with a knife, he cut his finger because the sky was too dark.

Yang Jian, who was still annoyed by the punishment just now, immediately felt that he was wrong before. Is this person in front of him really one of the Twelve Golden Immortals of Kunlun?But Master Yuding was still looking at him pitifully, Yang Jian sighed, found gauze from the desk drawer, and carefully wrapped his thumb up for him.

"Uh...Master..." Yang Jian sat down on the floor, carefully looked at Yu Ding's expression, and spoke out Guang Chengzi's decision.Master Yuding stared at his injured finger, without saying a word for a long time.

"Ten days?" Just when Yang Jian thought he was accumulating anger, Yu Ding stood up and asked.Yang Jian nodded, watched the Taoist priest walk into the inner room, took out a pill and handed it to himself, saying, "Eat it."

Yang Jian looked up at Daoist Yuding. For some reason, he always had a strange feeling that this Taoist lived in his own world. gone back.But Yang Jian didn't ask anything, he took the pill silently, looked at it, and swallowed it straight away.

The corners of Yu Ding's mouth curved upwards, as a sign of satisfaction. "Enough, you go." He said, picked up the bamboo slips on the ground, went to the desk and continued to write hard, as if what happened just now hadn't happened at all.Yang Jian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, walked to the entrance of the cave, turned back, lit all the oil lamps and left.

Qianyuan Mountain is farther than Yang Jian imagined, and it is also much larger than Yuquan Mountain.When he was out of breath and climbed up the mountain where the Golden Light Cave was located, a crescent moon had already hung above the treetops.Daoist Taiyi seems to have not fallen asleep yet, the Golden Light Cave is brightly lit, a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl came out, looked at Yang Jian at the door and said: "Master said you are here, let me come and greet you." She raised her head The small face looked at Yang Jian, "I heard that you had a fight with Yin Hong, Yin Jiao today?"

Yang Jian looked at this cardamom girl, her delicate little face was still childlike, her face was as round as a freshly peeled egg, her big watery eyes, and a beautiful cinnabar mole between her eyebrows, she was covered in a light pink gauze shirt in a warm and comfortable atmosphere. In the light, it looks like a white porcelain doll with its own glow. Even Sanmei has never had such beauty at her age.

"Those two dead children like to make trouble out of nothing the most. If they bully me one day, I will definitely make them look good!" The porcelain doll's delicate voice couldn't hide her contempt, "It's good that there are so many Buddhist scriptures in the cave. There are also books, martial arts cheats, and the Heart Sutra of Taoism. Whatever you want to learn, feel free to read it.”

"The scripture cave?" Yang Jian asked in amazement, Master Guangchengzi only asked him to come to Qianyuan Mountain to face the wall, but he didn't mention where to go or how to face the wall.If it is said that he came to the scripture cave, then this is not a punishment at all.He felt a sense of relief, but at the same time, he was in a fog and didn't know what to do.

Seeing that Yang Jian had been silent, the girl elbowed him, "Master said your name is Yang Jian?" Yang Jian nodded, cupped his fists and said, "I've seen..." He wanted to say "Senior Sister", but The girl's stature was not even up to his chest, so she couldn't scream.The girl seemed to feel his embarrassment, and smiled meaninglessly: "You think I'm young, right? I'm older than Ao Cunxin in Putuo Mountain!" She bounced and led Yang Jian into the cave, bowing upwards Said: "Master, Yang Jian is here."

If Guangchengzi is mature and prudent, and real person Yuding is unrestrained, then real person Taiyi can be said to be a majestic and dignified figure.This real person is wearing a golden gossip fairy robe woven in red, a green lotus crown with eight treasures and pearls on his head, and a long white beard under his chin fluttering on his chest.When Yang Jian came in, Daoist Taiyi was stepping on the small table, wiping his red sandalwood treasure pavilion one by one, and a gilt gilt horsetail whisk of Xiangfei was inserted obliquely behind his collar. Hua diverged.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, the red-faced Daoist Taiyi turned around, looked at Yang Jian with a smile and said, "Okay, um, very good." He raised his hand to stop Yang Jian from saluting, and stepped forward to pull his hand. : "Since you are here, just stay here and tell the uncle what you need. There are books in the cave. You can go after reading enough. Hey~" The real person seemed to remember something, and asked: "Before you come, your master will give you something to eat." Have you bought Bigu Pill?"

It turned out that the pill was Bigu Pill, that is to say, Guangchengzi, Master Yuding and Master Taiyi knew that he would come to Qianyuan Mountain long ago, and arranged a scripture cave for him to read.Yang Jian seems to be in an absurd dream tonight, he "made a mistake", shouldn't he be punished?Why did Guang Chengzi let him go lightly, Master Yuding didn't care, and Master Taiyi warmly welcomed him as if he was his own disciple?Since the family rebellion, Yang Jian felt that everything around him was being pushed by an invisible hand, and he could only follow the torrent of fate uncontrollably along a paved road like a wild horse.He sat in the scripture cave and thought for a long time, but he couldn't figure it out.

With the book, ten days passed quickly, and Yang Jian borrowed a few books when he went down the mountain. The real Taiyi smiled so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, said a few words "good" again and again, and brought another one to the real Yuding. Seal the handwriting.Back in Jinxia Cave, Yuding saw Yang Jian, but she didn't look happy, she just said "um", took the letter from Master Taiyi, read it quickly, ignited a flame, and burned it.

Seeing that the master had nothing to say, Yang Jian went to the backyard, took a pole and went to fetch water.He thought a lot in the past ten days. Although Daoist Yuding was very quiet and seldom spoke, he still treated him generously, and he was full of economics and knowledge. No matter why he took himself as an apprentice, it would be good to learn a skill from him. .Before Yang Jian's family changed, he was originally a child with a dexterous mind and the best ability to adapt to changes, so his uneasy heart gradually calmed down.

For several days, Yang Jian carried water faster and faster, and began to feel that the rugged and difficult mountain roads gradually became smoother. The water tank that was originally filled until dark was often full in the afternoon, so he had the time to read Several volumes of bamboo slips brought back from Qianyuan Mountain.Occasionally, when encountering some obscure points, he mustered up the courage to ask Master Yuding for advice. Although the real man's words were simple, he could always hit the target, making Yang Jianmao suddenly understand.Sometimes he practiced according to the book, and Yuding would give pointers when he passed by. Although the master and apprentice still didn't communicate much, they gradually got used to each other's existence.

That day Yang Jian finished fetching water, and sat on the rock under the pine to read as usual. Unconsciously, the clouds covered the shadow of the sun, and it gradually became dark.At this time, the sun had not yet set, but the forest was not very bright at first, and the clouds rushed in to block the sunlight, and the words on the book became blurred.Yang Jian raised his head and breathed a sigh of relief, and saw a small figure in the woods, walking towards him with a bounce.He took a closer look, and it turned out to be the porcelain doll female disciple of Jinguang Cave Taiyi Daoist.

"Yang Jian!" the porcelain doll said with a smile, "I've searched for you but you can't find it, so you're hiding here!" When Yang Jian saw her, he thought of his third sister. The third younger sister held her by the corner of her clothes and followed behind her step by step.At that time, I was very playful, and felt that it would be cumbersome to take her with me. I always deliberately left Sanmei behind, or even hid, and Sanmei was like this, looking for her everywhere, and once she found her, she ran up to hug me ecstatically. arm—but that time will never come back.

"Yang Jian, will you go down the mountain with me?" The porcelain doll held her cheeks and squatted on the ground looking at Yang Jian who was in a daze, with a flattering smile on her face. "Going down the mountain?" Yang Jian was taken aback, "Do you want to tell Master when you go down the mountain?" The porcelain doll's beautiful eyebrows were twisted into a rope, and she pouted, "I just don't tell Master, I'm here to find you!" Hiding great distress, "Master forbade me to go down the mountain, saying that I was too young and didn't know much about the world. It would be bad if people at the bottom of the mountain saw me and tricked me into going. But you came down the mountain, and with you If I'm with you, I won't be deceived!" The porcelain doll looked up at Yang Jian, with the look of anticipation in her big eyes that had no place to hide, which made Yang Jian's heart soften for a while.

"Where do you want to go?" Yang Jian asked half helplessly, half compromisingly.Seeing that his tone was loose, Cihua smiled happily and said, "Go to the small town at the foot of the mountain. I heard that there is a market every month today, and it's not very big. Let's go back after shopping." Yang Jian looked up at the sky and said : "We must go back to the mountain before dark."

"I heard there is a night market at night." The porcelain doll pursed her lips. "No." Yang Jian made a serious face: "If this is the case, you can go by yourself, I won't go." up.

The small town at the foot of the mountain is not very big as mentioned, and the market only sells some groceries. It seems that the year is not very good, and there are no silks, satins and porcelains at all. There are not many people shopping, only the street vendors lazily Sitting on the sidelines, he didn't even respond to a few yells.Yang Jian has been used to it for many years in the world, and the Dongshi in Guankou is much more prosperous than here. If he was a child, such small episodes would not be enough for Yang Jiaerlang to play for an hour.But this female doll seems to be here for the first time, so excited that she can't help herself, looking around, her eyes are almost not enough, she has to pick up everything and ask Yang Jian how to use it, Yang Jian is also patient, like Tell her one by one like I took my third sister with me.

It was time for dinner, and the girl was already hungry after playing for half a day, and she stood in front of a basket of steamed buns, refusing to leave.She tugged at Yang Jian's sleeve and said, "Second Brother Yang, I want to eat that!" Yang Jian paused, he had not used money on Kunlun Mountain for a long time, and he came down in a hurry and did not bring any money with him, what should he do now?He looked at the girl, and asked in a cautious whisper, "Have you brought any money?"

"Money?" The girl looked blank, "What is money?" Her eyes fell on the steaming buns, and she didn't leave for a moment. "I want to eat buns. What do you mean by money?" Yang Jian was so angry at her Zhi Le, "Without money, what do you use to buy buns?"

"I don't care, I'm hungry, I want to eat!" The girl pursed her mouth, as if Yang Jian would immediately roll over if he didn't agree.Yang Jian was helpless, when he looked up, he saw that in the nearby square, a family was sending a woman out. The woman carried a camphorwood medicine box on her shoulder, was wearing a light goose yellow narrow-sleeved skirt, and had loose black hair. In the back of the head, it was the dragon girl Cun Xin.

Yang Jian suddenly looked like a drowning man seeing driftwood, and trotted over a few steps and said, "Ao... the third princess!" Cun Xin recently betrayed her master and secretly went down to practice medicine. Someone actually called her title, she couldn't help but tremble in shock, when she turned to look, it was Yang Jian!She was so frightened that she waved her hands again and again, signaled Yang Jian to whisper, and then pulled him aside and whispered, "Keep your voice down, no one will think you are dumb." Cun Xin looked around and no one was paying attention, and asked, "Why are you here?" ?”

Yang Jian smiled wryly: "Aren't you with..." He suddenly remembered that he was only looking at the girl like the third sister, and forgot to ask her name, so he stopped talking, so he pointed to the bun shop and said: "She wants to eat buns, I don't have any money, do you have any?"

Cun Xin looked along his fingers, and saw the girl staring at the buns in a daze, probably waiting impatiently, she picked one up unexpectedly, turned around and ran away.Yang Jian and Cun Xin were frightened, and before they could catch up, the owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop yelled "There is a thief", picked up his rolling pin and ran after him.

Yang Jian and Cun Xin hurriedly followed, and saw that the girl didn't care about the hot bun, tossing it back and forth like a ball with both hands, shouting "hot" while running wildly.She panicked and ran into a narrow alley. Seeing that there was no way to go, she stood up just now and looked defensively at the owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop who was chasing after her.

The boss didn't know whether it was tired or angry, his face was flushed, and he walked up step by step with a rolling pin, and said bitterly: "Little girl, who doesn't learn how to make movies well, steals people's food. Come here and return the buns to me!" The girl saw He approached without fear, grabbed the bun with his left hand, pinched a finger with his right hand, and was about to cast a spell immediately.

Seeing that it was not good, Yang Jian hurriedly rushed forward to grab the girl's right hand, broke up the fingers and said, "Stop messing around, and return the buns to others." Said: "No! If he dares to come over, I will beat him!"

The boss was furious, he raised the rolling pin in the air, suddenly Cun Xin rushed up and said, "This bun is expensive, I'll give it to you." After that, he took out a few copper coins from his waist pocket and handed it over.The buns were not worth much at all, and the boss thought that the shop was left unattended, so he took the money from Cun Xin and left angrily.Cun Xin sent the boss away, looked back at the big and small behind him, pointed at the doll with anger on his face, and said angrily, "Lingzhu, you're messing around again!"
