Xiao Yaoling was dazed for a while and then slowly regained consciousness.
Subconsciously, he wanted to yawn and stretch, but he instantly realized where he was and lay down on the ground, his limbs stiff and motionless.
He just quietly opened the slit of his eyes and glanced at Qi Wuhuo.
Then he closed his eyes for a moment.
As if pretending to be dead was not enough, he also tried hard to pump his little feet and hands.
It had tried very hard to pretend to be dead! But it only heard the young Taoist over there chuckle as if he couldn't help it. The little man's face turned red. Knowing that he had failed, he sat up and started laughing again.
With a face filled with anger, he covered his forehead with one hand, pointed at Qi Wuhu with the other, and shouted babblingly.
The young Taoist reached into his sleeves.
After taking the medicine for a while, he rubbed his butt on the ground and backed away.
Increase the distance.
Keep shouting with your fingers outstretched.
Until Qi Wuhuo opened his palm, there was an osmanthus cake inside. He brought some and put it in his bag. The medicine spirit paused, and then became even more angry. His messy hair exploded and stretched out.
Pointing his finger at Qi Wuhuo, he started babbling and yelled, while shouting he got closer.
Then he stretched out his hand and hugged the sweet-scented osmanthus cake.
Turn around.
Da da da.
He ran away and sat on a stone that was about the size that children would use to throw water around. He looked back at Qi Wuhuo, lowered his head with doubt on his face, glanced at the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, which seemed to have never been seen in the mountains, and then
He hesitated and took a lick, then smacked his lips. There was no taste. Then he opened his mouth wide and took a big bite, chewing slowly with his cheeks like a hamster.
While eating, Qi Wuhuo glared angrily.
Slowly, slowly, the expression on its face gradually relaxed.
The chewing movement also gradually softened.
Finally, it pointed at the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, with a face full of love:
"Beep!"
The young Taoist sat on the stone and said, "I should have bumped into you accidentally when I was using my magic just now. I'm really sorry."
"Consider this as apology."
The medicine spirit's eyes widened, and after thinking for a while, he finished all the sweet-scented osmanthus cake in his hand. Then he patted his belly with satisfaction, came closer, and stood up like a strong man in the world holding a stone lock to exercise his body and show his strength.
Chest, patted his forehead, and then made a horse step with a hey.
The young Taoist saw the meaning of this action and couldn't help but laugh out loud and said:
"You mean, you are very strong, I can use a few more strokes."
"But just to ask, do you want to give you a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake?"
The little guy nodded vigorously.
Not forgetting to show his strength, he looked around, his eyes lit up, he turned around and saw a stone the size of his thumb, he grabbed it hard, hey, the stone didn't move at all, but the little guy's face turned red. The young Taoist
He couldn't help laughing so loudly that the little guy turned around and sat still in embarrassment.
Qi Wuhuo reached out and took out the remaining sweet-scented osmanthus cake and placed it next to it.
The little guy cheered, turned around, got up hard, and climbed up the pocket.
It is big enough to sit in the palm of a young Taoist priest's hand.
To him, this pocket is as full of sweet-scented osmanthus cakes as a hillside!
I jumped in and took a bite from the left and a bite from the right. I was extremely happy. After eating and drinking, the young Taoist fished it out easily. His hair was still messy. He simply pointed to the stone next to him and said with a smile: "But you are sitting here
Go there."
In the winter mountain forest, this mountain is different from Helian Mountain.
There was still a sense of greenness. The young Taoist sat in the back, and a little man sat in front obediently, letting Qi Wuzhuo comb his hair. After tying his hair, Qi Wuzhuo saw that the little man had a beautiful face.
, her facial features are extremely slender and beautiful, her skin is fair, and her eyes are purple. She just ate too much and her belly was bulging.
The boy asked: "How do you comb your hair?"
Xiao Yaoling thought for a while, pointed at Qi Wuhuo's hair, and described it babblingly.
The young Taoist laughed and said, "A Taoist bun?"
"I'm not qualified to tie your bun."
"But it's still okay to tie your hair."
Yaoling turned around and smiled happily.
Sitting on the stone, his two little feet swayed.
The young Taoist used gentle force to tie up its hair. After thinking for a while, he took out the pine needle given to him by the old pine tree master. For this little medicine spirit, it was just the right hairpin to make a bun.
, the young man was not reluctant to give up, he just inserted it casually, tied up its hair, and then said with a smile: "That's it."
The medicine spirit got up and ran to the side.
Squatting down in front of a drop of dew and looking at my own reflection, I felt extremely happy.
The young Taoist played with him for a while and was about to leave.
Yaoling jumped on Qi Wuhuo's lap and climbed up. The Taoist stretched out his hand to let it sit in his palm, then lifted it up, put it on his shoulder, and said with a smile: "Huh? You said you want me to come with you?
"
Yaoling nodded vigorously, then pointed forward at the road, gesturing for Qi Wuhuo to go forward.
Qi Wuhuo followed it to a very hidden mountain road.
Yaoling jumped down and escaped directly into the ground. After a moment, he came out holding a very big egg and handed it to Qi Wuhuo.
He slapped his chest and shouted babblingly.
Qi Wuhuo said, "Did you find the egg and give it to me?"
"Can you still climb trees?"
Yaoling danced and explained, and Qi Wuhuo slowly understood it. It meant that there was a strange house hidden deep under the mountain. There were beds, futons, and...
On the lotus platform, there was a bald man meditating. He was dead, but there was still an egg inside. It seemed there was still a little life in it, so the medicine spirit dragged it out.
Three hundred years, three hundred years to drag it out!
I originally wanted to hatch a big bird.
That way, you can carry it and fly around!
But it just can't hatch.
It pointed at Qi Wuhuo and shouted happily. The young Taoist smiled slightly and said, "Do you want me to try it?"
"If you can hatch it, you can carry me around and fly around?"
"Playing around?"
He saw that this bird egg was only the size of a fist.
The best guess is that they are just birds like wild geese. It is possible to take off with medicine spirits on their backs, but it is absolutely impossible for them. Moreover, when practitioners reach a certain level and learn the art of riding on clouds and mist, they can fly, but
This is Xiao Yaoling's treasure. It was given to me, so I naturally wouldn't say anything bad about it, so I smiled gently and thanked her.
When I heard that he was looking for medicinal materials.
Little Yaoling also played along. When Qi Wuhuo found about a basket of medicinal materials, he had already walked through several mountains. Looking from a distance, he suddenly saw the clouds on the horizon changing, spiritual energy rising into the sky, and someone talking.
The sound came along the wind, and the young man was curious. He walked closer and looked over, only to see dozens of people, all wearing robes and cloud shoes, holding magic weapons, practicing in the mountains.
Among them was a young swordsman holding his sword and looking around boredly.
Then he saw the young Taoist not far away, his eyes brightened, he smiled and raised his hand to say hello:
"Oh? So there are still fellow Taoists here?"
"Haha, I'm waiting to worship the mountain god. Fellow Taoist, you might as well come."
Many Taoists looked over. Qi Wuzhuo thought for a moment and walked over. Everyone saw a young Taoist walking out of the depths of the mountain forest. He had a gentle expression and was carrying a backpack. He was only fifteen or sixteen years old, but he looked quite different.
It looked like a Taoist boy who came to climb the clouds in the mountains to collect medicine, and nodded slightly. However, the swordsman seemed to be quite familiar with him, and nodded to him with a smile.
"I am a swordsman from Wangwushan who is from Yue. Oh, how rare is it to see a strange face?"
"Who is my Taoist disciple, and where do you practice?"
The young Taoist replied: "I am a poor Taoist and I have no confusion."
"I'm currently practicing outside the teacher's gate."
The Wangwushan sword cultivator nodded clearly: "Oh? Experience..."
"He's a casual cultivator."
Many casual practitioners are like this, because there is no specific teacher, so it is at least better to say it in the name of experience.
Yue Ji laughed and said, "Rogue cultivators are also very good. They play around and wander around. It doesn't look like they have a master. Such restrictions and requirements are very unpleasant!" He patted Qi Wuhuo's shoulder.
It's just that the sound was too loud, which made the people in front unhappy. A middle-aged man yelled: "Vietnamese!"
The young swordsman then kept silent.
He just smiled helplessly at Qi Wuzhuo.
Qi Wuhuo noticed that there was another waist badge on the swordsman's waist, which was also the "Mingzhen Taoist Alliance".
It's just something that old Tantai Xuan hid.
Such a young and energetic swordsman was left outside casually.
Young and old, after all, have different moods.
Yue Ji noticed Qi Wuhuo's gaze, smiled slightly and said, "It's the Mingzhen Taoist Alliance. What, are you interested in participating?"
The young Taoist nodded.
Then he lifted the backpack on his back, thought for a while, and said: "I just hope to be able to exchange for some simple magical powers, so I prepared some medicinal materials. If you are in there, Yue Ji, can you help me see what I can exchange these for?"
?”
Yue Ji looked at the boy's backpack and said regretfully:
"No way."
"These are simple medicinal materials. The Mingzhen Taoist Alliance does not accept them, and the vintage is too small. It seems that you don't know enough about the Mingzhen Taoist Alliance."
Qi Wuhuo nodded, and Yue Ji enthusiastically introduced some common sense about the Mingzhen Taoist Alliance.
And this conversation also made the older Taoists in front relax, and they just thought in their hearts that it seemed that they were just casual cultivators who came here to collect medicine in the mountains.
Just an ordinary Taoist.
It seems that Yueji rarely has the opportunity to teach others these common sense, so he chatted in a lively manner for most of an hour. The medicine spirit hidden in the young Taoist's sleeve robe fell asleep, so he stopped talking and took a look.
Tianse sighed with emotion: "It seems that it is useless this time."
The atmosphere among the Taoists in front has become increasingly depressing.
No one cared that the chatter between Yue Ji and the young monk became louder.
Qi Wuhuo said in confusion: "This is..."
Yue Ji said: "It's a mountain god ritual held every ten years."
He quite felt the joy of being a teacher and said: "Brothers, you should know that the mountain gods are extremely powerful. For example, in a big city, there is a piece of land for every square or ten miles; if there are mountains, there are mountain gods.
The river is the god of water, so the number of these earth creatures is almost countless. The earth carries the weight of the sky. In fact, the weight of the heaven and earth together is so heavy that many mountain gods and earth creatures do not even bother to accept the talisman edicts from the Emperor of Heaven and the Heavenly Court."
"My Taoist sect respects the three pure gods and the four emperors."
"The Three Pure Ones are the ancestors of Taoism, and the Four Imperial Masters are the supreme ones."
"All the lands belong to the [Emperor Land of the Empress Cheng Tian's Imitation of Houde Guangda], and are one of the four emperors."
"Living in [Ruizhu Palace]."
"He also has three provinces and three prefectures under his command."
"For the emperor's land, there are only the capital, the upper and the middle."
"Each one is under the control of True Lord Yuanjun."
"If you look around, you will see the emperors of mountains and rivers who are in charge of all the famous mountains and mountains."
"And in the name of being in charge of the entire mountains and rivers, the Queen of the Earth Emperor is still there. She is one of the four emperors and has the highest status. The earthlings are too lazy to accept the talisman from heaven, so there are generally two types of human sacrifices.
, together they are called [Emperor, Heaven and Queen Earth], and today we are offering sacrifices to the gods of the mountains and the earth.”
Yue Ji glanced over and said, "As you can see, all the major gates near Zhongzhou Fucheng are here."
"The purpose is to worship the head of the earth in this vast area."
"Zhongzhou is surrounded by great sages and great benevolent people, and Juyun Lingmiao is the master!"
"It's just that in previous years he would come out to meet, say a few words, and have a cup of tea, but today he doesn't come out, which always makes people think that he has done something to anger this Lingmiao Gong. No wonder Uncle Master and the others are so worried, if this doesn't come out, they will only become more worried in their hearts."
"I don't know what happened?"
"Is Mr. Lingmiao really angry?"
"Maybe Mr. Lingmiao is not at home?"
……………………
The entrance to Shuiyun Township.
Several children were playing with straight branches.
He raised his head and was stunned.
I saw an old man wearing royal blue satin standing at the gate of the village. He seemed to want to come in, but seemed extremely hesitant. When he saw the children, he waved to them, then took out a few pieces of candy and said with a gentle smile: " Children, the old uncle wants to ask you a question, I wonder if there is a young Taoist priest here?"
Several children looked at each other and said, "Yes!"
"he is great!"
"Old uncle, are you here to see him?! We will show you the way!"
The old man's expression became slightly more solemn and he said, "See you? No, no... we can't do this. The old man just waits here."
"I had to ask the children to bring me a message..."
He raised his hand and stroked the bun of his hair, with a solemn expression, he cupped his hands and said:
"[Lingmiao] came to visit."
"apologize."
"I don't know about Taoist priest, can I meet him conveniently?"
The imperial land of Houtu is only the residence, and the three provinces of Houtu come from "Tao Fa Hui Yuan·Volume 3"
The names of three provinces have been slightly changed.
