Chapter 358: Travel to Mount Tai, the Ancient Star of the Wilderness
"hiss......"
"beautiful!"
Earth (ancient star), at the foot of Mount Tai.
On a wild peach tree, a slovenly old man was lying on the top of a thick peach tree. He suddenly took a big sip of peach blossom wine and made a refreshing and leisurely sound.
"Kacha, kacha,..."
After pouring the wine, the old Taoist priest swept the dust away, and the sweetest wild peach on the tree was taken into his hands. Then he ate the water-dense peach without washing or wiping it.
"Old fairy, is it sweet?"
Just as the old Taoist was tasting the peach, a boy's voice suddenly came from underneath the tree.
Looking around, the wild peach tree that the old Taoist priest visited was actually rooted on the cliff more than ten feet high.
The old Taoist priest heard this and waved his fly whisk with a smile.
Then, three peaches fell from the peach tree, falling towards the three children below.
"Qiuqiu, be careful with Taozi."
Seeing the peach falling, the three children did not reach out to catch it, but hurriedly ducked to prevent being hit by the peach falling from the sky.
However, they are also smart.
After taking two steps back, he immediately stretched out his clothes and prepared to use his clothes to catch the peach falling from the sky to ensure that the peach would not be broken.
"Hey young!"
"It hurts!"
"Oh my god!"
Three different reactions emerged from the mouths of the three children after the peach was hit on their heads.
"Old fairy, you are making fun of us."
The children were very clever and knew that the reason why the peach hit their heads must be the trick of the old Taoist priest.
"Meng Fei, Qiuqiu, you are okay."
The child who shouted to the old man turned his attention to his two companions after shouting.
Meng Fei covered his forehead and said: "Xiao Wu, let's go back."
As a girl, Qiuqiu looked at Xiao Wu pitifully while rubbing the spot where the peach hit her, and said with an aggrieved look: "Xiao Wu, you said you would protect me."
Xiao Wu checked the tops of their heads and found that there was no broken skin or redness or swelling, so he said to Meng Fei: "Meng Fei, take Qiuqiu back first. If the old Taoist priest dares to hit us with peaches, I will make him look good."
Meng Fei said with some fear: "Xiao Wu, it's better not to give up. That old Taoist priest is not simple at first glance."
He had already dodged, but was hit by a peach again. Anyone who was not a fool would know that something was fishy.
Qiuqiu also looked up at the old Taoist on the peach tree with some fear, and then said to Xiao Wu: "Xiao Wu, then Meng Fei and I will wait for you to come back. You can be careful."
Xiao Wu rubbed Qiuqiu's hit forehead and said, "It's okay. I will take the old Taoist priest back later and apologize to you in person."
Then, Meng Fei and Qiuqiu ran away, leaving Xiao Wu there alone to look for something.
After finding some pebbles as big as lotus seeds, Xiao Wu took out his slingshot from his pocket and prepared to teach the old man a lesson.
But no matter how he aimed, he couldn't lock on to the old man in the tree.
"Could it be that I'm thirsty and dazzled?"
After loosening the rubber band of the slingshot, Xiao Wu looked down and saw the three intact peaches falling on the grass, and swallowed unconsciously.
"When I'm full, I'll teach you a lesson for this old trickster like you." Xiao Wu picked up a peach and wiped it with a wet paper towel before biting it in one bite. At the same time, he raised his head and stared at the old trickster.
And secretly shouted in his heart.
"So sweet."
After eating half of it, Xiao Wu was immediately attracted by the sweetness of the water-dense peach, and unconsciously picked up the other two spiritual peaches on the ground.
After wiping them, I was ready to continue eating them.
But just as he was about to bring it to his mouth, he put the peach down again and stuffed it into his small bag.
"Let's keep it for Meng Fei and Qiuqiu. The old Taoist priest is not a bad person. He certainly didn't mean to hurt us by inviting us to eat such sweet peaches."
After thinking about it for a while, Xiao Wu raised his head and shouted to the old Taoist priest on the tree: "Old god, thank you for the peach, it is really sweet."
"I see that one peach is not enough for you. You are far from full and thirsty. Why don't you continue eating?" The old Taoist turned over at some point and could see Xiao Wu below, and said with a smile on his face.
"Those two peaches belong to Meng Fei and Qiuqiu. When I send the peaches back, I will pick them myself."
Xiao Wu didn't want to trouble the old Taoist priest who was sitting on the peach tree to help him pick a few more, but wanted to do it himself.
You must know that the peach tree growing on a cliff more than ten feet high, although it is not a truly dangerous place, is not that easy for an eleven or twelve-year-old child to climb up.
The old Taoist priest watched Xiao Wu running back to the distant camp to deliver peaches, and then watched him change into mountaineering clothes and run over with a roll of rope on his back.
Although Xiao Wu is young, his rock climbing moves are quite professional.
Of course, a rock wall more than thirty meters high is not a cliff, it is just a very steep slope.
It only took about ten minutes for Xiao Wu to climb onto the ancient peach tree.
Looking at the juicy peaches on the tree with a happy face, Xiao Wu did not take action directly, but said to the old Taoist priest: "Old god, you didn't plant this peach tree, right?"
"Wild." The old Taoist priest looked at Xiao Wu with interest.
"It's wild, then I'll pick ten peaches." Xiao Wu looked at the trees full of spiritual peaches, but he was very measured and only picked ten.
You know, there are hundreds of peaches on the tree at this time.
"Why only pick ten?" the old Taoist asked with interest.
"Because there are only ten of us. Wild peaches, naturally raised, are definitely not prepared for us. There are also various animals in the mountains that feed on peaches. If I pick them all, they won't be able to eat such sweet peaches.
Yes." Xiao Wu said matter-of-factly.
"Everything in the world must be taken in a proper way and used in a measured way. It's good, it's good. I have compassion at a young age in order to become a great weapon." The old Taoist priest suddenly waved his fly whisk and said with a smile.
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. www. Android and Apple are available.]
"I didn't mean that. I just, just..." Xiao Wu didn't know how to answer the question for a while.
"Why didn't you hit me with a slingshot just now?" The old Taoist priest asked when he saw Xiao Wu who was blushing.
"Ah, you know everything?" Xiao Wu looked at the old Taoist priest in surprise, and then said curiously: "Old immortal, are you also a member of the immortal sect?"
"A person in the Immortal Sect? Tell me, what is a person in the Immortal Sect?" The old Taoist asked immediately when he saw that Xiao Wu had extraordinary knowledge at a young age.
"They are those immortal cultivators who live deep in the famous mountains and rivers and can fly around. My father brought us here this time to try our luck on the top of the Jade Emperor."
Xiaowu Zhi talked about everything and told everything he knew.
"Can the Jade Emperor have great luck?" the old Taoist priest became interested.
"My father said that the Jade Emperor's Peak on Mount Tai is a place to reach immortality. As long as you have the appearance of cultivating immortals, even a mortal can easily meet people from the immortal sect on it. If the opportunity is good, you will be attracted by everyone from the immortal sect.
Accept him as a disciple and take him back to practice together."
When Xiao Wu was talking about these things, he had a look of longing on his face.
"Do you want to cultivate immortality?" the old Taoist priest said.
"Of course I want to become an immortal." Xiao Wu said.
"Why do you want to cultivate immortality? Isn't it better to be a mortal?" The old Taoist priest looked at Xiao Wu in surprise.
"What's good about mortals? Only by cultivating immortality can you fly around and go to places that you couldn't reach before. Old immortal, you are not a fake immortal, are you?" Xiao Wu looked at the old Taoist priest in front of him with some doubts.
said.
"Haha, I wish you good luck." After saying that, the old Taoist priest disappeared directly in front of Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu rubbed his eyes, and then whispered: "He is really a living god."
Then he picked ten peaches and took them back to share with everyone.
From beginning to end, Xiao Wu never asked for anything from the old Taoist priest, nor did he pick even one more peach.
At a young age, he behaves according to law and is able to control his desires. His character is rare.
"Get lucky and become an immortal?"
Afterwards, Lao Dao appeared on the hiking trail and walked towards Yuhuangding step by step.
The veteran's pace is very steady, and it takes almost the same time to climb each step. Even if someone blocks the way in front of him, he can turn slightly sideways and continue on his way without affecting others.
The old Taoist was none other than Wu De, who had just traveled to the ancient star.
