Chapter five hundred and ninth look forward
The way of leaving was not much different from what Zhang Yuanyi imagined, it was just passing through a teleportation array.
However, in Zhang Yuanyi's imagination, this formation should lead directly to Kuye Temple, but it turned out not to be the case.
After a period of dizziness, Zhang Yuan landed on the ground and came to an isolated hilltop full of red fallen leaves.
For this mountain top, Zhang Yuanyi, even if he was uneducated, could still make a rough guess. Isn't the reason why Kuye Temple got its name because it is backed by a mountain range full of maple leaf forests?
Whenever autumn comes, the maple leaves falling all over the mountain are like burning flames, igniting the entire mountain top, and the rustling sound is extremely wonderful.
And the place Zhang Yuanyi calculated now is undoubtedly an independent peak in that mountain range.
Zhang Yuan looked around, but found that Jiang Yuan was not here. He couldn't help but said silently: "Is it possible that there are two different results in the same teleportation?"
He and Jiang Yuan entered the teleportation array together. Now that he is here, Jiang Yuan is missing. How can he find the way to Kuye Temple?
After all, he was an outsider and was unfamiliar with this place. It was in the wilderness, there was no map, and the road was facing the sky. Zhang Yuan was hard to make a decision for a while.
Zhang Yuanyi looked around carefully and found that he was actually at the top of the mountain. He hesitated for a while and decided to go down the mountain first.
On the way down the mountain, the ground was covered with maple leaves. Every time he stepped on it, he could make a popping sound, which was very pleasant to the ear. Zhang Yuan took a deep breath and felt refreshed.
He sighed and said: "Sure enough, the air outside is fresh and comfortable. Among the ghosts, the corrosive spiritual energy alone caused me a lot of trouble."
Zhang Yuan felt very speechless when he thought about the ghost's weird aura. It took him a lot of energy to avoid the erosion of that aura.
When he thought of this, Zhang Yuan thought, and a spiritual flame suddenly rose in his hand. When he touched a fallen leaf beside him, the fallen leaf instantly turned into ashes!
Zhang Yuan was shocked and said: "As expected, he actually asked me to bring out the corrosive spiritual power."
If it were a normal spiritual flame, this hand would only cause the leaves to burn and eventually turn into ashes. However, Zhang Yuanyi's current spiritual power would not even give the leaves the possibility of burning, and would be directly corroded.
All done.
Zhang Yuanyi put away the spiritual power in his hand and said: "This may be a back-up move for me in the future. It should not be used unless it is absolutely necessary."
You must know that spiritual power is the foundation of a monk. With corrosive spiritual power, ordinary monks have the upper hand fundamentally. If they want to fight against Zhang Yuanyi, the possibility is not too great.
The road down the mountain was not particularly difficult. If Zhang Yuanyi hadn't deliberately slowed down and didn't want to attract other people's attention, Zhang Yuanyi could have actually jumped off the mountain in a few steps and finally landed.
Arriving at the foot of the mountain peak, there were two more roads in front of Zhang Yuanyi. One led to the depths of the mountain, and the other followed a beautiful stream.
Toward the distance.
Zhang Yuanyi hesitated for a while, but decided to go down the stream. After all, the streams were usually where people lived. As long as he saw people, he could take this opportunity to inquire about the location of Kuye Temple.
This stream is very calm. Even if it is flowing, it is only flowing at a very slight level and silently. If Zhang Yuanyi had not observed carefully and looked at the white waves hitting the rocks, he might not have thought that it was
This stream is flowing.
Zhang Yuan walked a few steps, and as expected, he saw a small bridge not far ahead, and opposite the bridge, there was a very simple wooden house.
Choosing to live in a place like this, with only a small wooden house, a small bridge, flowing water, and misty clouds, it is conceivable that the owner of this wooden house must be a person with an elegant temperament.
Zhang Yuanyi stepped forward without thinking, stepped carefully across the bridge, knocked on the door and asked, "Is anyone there?"
"Dong dong dong!" The knock on the door was clear and ringing, but it was silent inside. No one knocked on Zhang Yuan's door right away.
Zhang Yuanyi hesitated for a moment, but decided to try again. He knocked on the door again and asked, "Is anyone here?"
At this time, there were hurried footsteps and a voice from inside the house, "There's someone, there's someone."
The old wooden door creaked, and an old man opened it from inside.
The old man looked at Zhang Yuanyi and asked, "What do these little friends need?"
He was also very curious in his heart, how could there be such a young man in a green shirt in this wilderness?
You know, he was tired of the worldly things, so he chose to hide in the mountains, built a wooden house, worked at sunrise and rested at sunset every day, and lived a secluded life.
In this deep mountain, there are still dozens of miles to go from the outside world, and it takes a lot of time to walk. Who would be so boring to come here?
When Zhang Yuan saw an old man in front of him, he must be fifty or sixty years old, he bowed and saluted and said: "Hello, old gentleman, I came to look for Kuye Temple, but I accidentally entered this deep mountain.
Now I have lost my way and am in a bit of a dilemma. I walked along the stream and saw your wooden house here, so I thought I would come here to ask for directions. I'm sorry for disturbing you."
When the old man heard that he was here to visit Kuye Temple, he couldn't help being happy. He quickly opened the wooden door and said, "He turned out to be a young man with great ambitions. You might as well come and have a seat. This place is not close to Kuye Temple at all.
It’s not too late to come in and rest.”
Kuye Temple is backed by mountains, and the place they are currently at is at the very back of the mountains, but there is no mountain road leading to Kuye Temple behind it. If you really want to go to Kuye Temple, you still need to take a long way around.
Walk out of the mountain from here and then take a detour up the mountain.
This trip would take several days anyway, so he chose to leave Zhang Yuanyi to rest for a while, which was considered human nature.
Zhang Yuan originally wanted to refuse, but seeing the old man's persistence and enthusiasm, he thought that he should accept the warm invitation in just a short time.
This wooden house looks very simple from the outside, but it is not like that when you enter it. The facilities inside are all kinds of ordinary houses.
There are not many things that the hospital needs.
For example, the ink painting hanging in front of the main entrance, the incense burner with three sticks of incense burning, and the Four Treasures of the Study placed next to the incense burner. These things are not something ordinary people can have. These all reveal the identity of this old man.
Unusual.
After entering the wooden house, Zhang Yuanyi sat down under the guidance of the old man. The old man fetched a pot of tea, handed it to Zhang Yuanyi and said, "Drink some tea, little friend."
Zhang Yuan took the tea cup with both hands, nodded with a smile, and said respectfully: "Thank you, old gentleman."
The old man sat down at this moment, poured himself a glass, took a sip, and said with a face full of intoxication: "I have been in this deep mountain for so many years, and you are the first person I have seen in these years.
people."
What he didn't expect was that a young man dressed as a scholar came, and he was really overjoyed.
Zhang Yuan took a sip of tea and said, "This tea is really good. I didn't expect there to be a hermit like the old man in this deep mountain. I was really pleasantly surprised."
The old man stroked his beard and said: "These are some tea saplings I brought with me when I came to the mountains. I didn't think they could be fed, so I just planted them in the fields. But who would have thought that it would be successful this time?
What a pleasant surprise.”
Zhang Yuan smiled and said: "It is said that if you plant a willow intentionally, it will fail, but if you insert a willow unintentionally, it will create shade. That's what it is said. I must be an old man who has a fate with this tea tree."
The old man mentioned the fate to each other and was very happy and said: "Maybe it is fate between you and me. In this deep mountain, meeting each other is not a deep fate."
Perhaps it was because they were at the Kuye Temple, and it was fate that the two of them chatted for a while.
Zhang Yuan drank the tea and asked: "I'm going to take the liberty to ask. I went in first and saw the old man's home. All kinds of utensils are not what ordinary people can configure. Compared to the old man, he should be a highly respected gentleman in the past.
.”
The old man smiled slightly and said: "My little friend, I have good eyesight. I am indeed not a traditional farmer. I was a young and vigorous official a few decades ago. Over the years, in this deep mountain, I didn't expect that in a blink of an eye,
He became an old man."
Zhang Yuanyi said in awe: "Senior who can make such a decision at a young age is definitely not an ordinary person."
A person's greatest asset when he is young is to see through the world and choose to settle down and live in seclusion. Not many people in the world can make this choice.
The old man shook his head and said: "Well, don't think too highly of yourself. When you are young, you have to work hard to make progress. Being young and energetic is actually not a bad thing."
I used to think that I could do it very freely, but now that I think about it, it seems that if I do this, I won’t have much to remember when I get older.
The truth here, which one is lighter or heavier, which one is better or worse, is all a person's choice.
Zhang Yuan nodded and said: "Since it is all in the past, no matter what, we should let it go. It would be meaningless to dwell on the past. Who said you can't look forward when you are old?"
