In the wing room, everyone looked at each other. Wang Liangmi looked at Xie Xuan's furious look and felt happy for no reason.
"Brother Xuan, I don't even have a piece of honey jade on me!" "Brother Xuan, even if you sell me, it won't be worth so much honey jade!" "Brother Xuan, I have this golden walking stick inlaid with Taoist talismans.
, maybe it's worth a piece of honey jade, you can take it." Lu Lingyun and the others said with sad faces, Bai Jian also woke up, sat on the ground angrily and refused to get up, and his crotch was actually wet with a small puddle.
Xie Xuan was stunned for a while, then suddenly burst into laughter: "Interesting, interesting! This guy is really interesting! Use this to pay, and I will reward you with the extra money." He threw out a priceless Yanyang jade pendant, threw it to Xia Monster, and sprinkled
Then he walked out of the side room and waved back, "Xiao Liangmi, play the flute for my brother when you have time!"
The sunset was thick outside, the willows were swaying, and the stream was flashing with golden-red light spots. Xie Xuan hummed a tune and walked into the gorgeous sunset. When he saw a vendor selling candied haws, he couldn't help but stop and touch the silver.
.
A shiny candied haws was handed to him. Xie Xuan was stunned for a moment and looked up. A scholar in green robes stood in front of him, carrying a bookcase on his back. His temples were gray, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes reflected the soft brilliance of the afterglow.
"Haha, it's you, old man Gu!" Xie Xuan jumped up excitedly, "Oh no, Mr. Patriarch, hehe, why do you have time to come to Jiankang? Ah, I understand, you must be here to take a peek at your old friend, right?
?"
Xie Qingfeng smiled gently: "When I arrived in Jiankang, I heard that you were going to punish people in Yangliuju. Come here to see your majesty. What, are you feeling deflated?"
"Wow, old man Gu, you are really a roundworm in my stomach, you can guess all this!" Xie Xuan made an exaggerated face, grabbed the candied haws, and took a big bite happily.
Xie Qingfeng smiled and said: "You have been fighting with people since you were a child. If you win, you will probably be listless. But if you lose, you will be in a good mood."
"What's the point of always winning?" Xie Xuan shrugged and followed Xie Qingfeng along the stream, gesticulating from time to time and telling endless anecdotes about the city.
Xie Qingfeng shook his head: "So, in the past few years in Jiankang, you have learned how to eat, drink, whore, and gamble?"
Xie Xuan patted Xie Qingfeng gently: "Old man, life is short, enjoy yourself in the moment! Who is like you, you are still a boy now."
Xie Qingfeng didn't feel dissatisfied and smiled bitterly: "You still love to fool around as much as you did when you were a child."
Xie Xuan held the candied haws in his mouth and sipped slowly, the sweet and sour taste spread from the tip of his tongue little by little. His parents died early and he had a naughty temper. Life in the clan was not easy. Once he was humiliated and braved a heavy rainstorm.
Running wildly. Running, the raindrops suddenly disappeared, and the lonely old man held a cloth umbrella and walked beside him leisurely as he did now.
"Anyway, I have you to protect me." Xie Xuan grinned, bit off the candied haws in one bite, and threw the bamboo skewer far away. There were ripples on the stream, and the bamboo skewer swayed for a moment, and slowly sank into the dusk.
Water surface.
The smile on Xie Xuan's face was as soft and peaceful as the dusk. Xie Qingfeng smiled slightly: "Does candied haws still taste like when you were a kid?"
Xie Xuan shook his head and nodded again: "It's the person who has changed, isn't it?"
At the end of the stream, there are beautiful mountains and beautiful lakes. The two of them walked side by side to the purple mountain with green shade. Xie Qingfeng glanced at Xie Xuan: "Are there many people at the foot of the mountain?"
Xie Xuan looked at the tourists playing nearby and said casually: "Of course it's lively."
Xie Qingfeng nodded, walked to the lush bamboo forest halfway up the mountain, and asked: "Are there many people now?"
"Three, three, two and two." Xie Xuan looked around and replied with a playful smile, "Old man Gu, what exactly do you want to say?"
Xie Qingfeng smiled and walked all the way to the top of the mountain. The orange-red setting sun was setting in the west, the trees were dyed, the clouds were lingering around the lonely peak, and the purple smoke was curling up, just like a fairyland.
"Are there still many people now?" Xie Qingfeng asked again.
"It's just the two of us. Come on, old man, just tell me what you have to say!" Xie Xuan rolled his eyes, pulled open his clothes, and let the cool mountain breeze hit his naked chest, shouting happily.
"The further you go up the mountain, the fewer people there are. This road has always been like this." Xie Qingfeng looked at the dim Jiankang City below and said slowly, "If you want to see the best scenery, you have to take the loneliest road."
Road."
Xie Xuan sat down, leaned against the rock, and dug his ears: "Hey, I think people are the best scenery. It's just me and you on the top of the mountain, big eyes facing each other, it's very boring, okay?"
p>
"Cultivation is a very boring thing." Xie Qingfeng said sternly, "How many disciples are there in the entire Jin Dynasty? Hundreds of thousands. How many people can join the Taoist sect every year? It's just one in a thousand. After entering, there are another
How many people can truly get a glimpse of the Tao? Only one among ten thousand. Xiao Xuan, your talent is so high that the Xie family has never seen it before. In the future, you will definitely be able to practice the Void and the Tao. Even if you break the Void, it is by no means an extravagant hope."
Xie Xuan couldn't help but feel moved. There are only a few people in the Demon Sect who have achieved the Shattering of the Void in history. He didn't expect that the old man Gu had such high expectations for him.
"You are sensual and playful in Jiankang, and all you make are fair-weather friends. Is it worth wasting your years and wasting your talents?" Xie Qingfeng shook his head, "The path of spiritual practice is destined to be lonely. Those who are useless
The dandy cannot accompany you to the end."
Xie Xuan pondered for a while, stood up, walked to Xie Qingfeng's side, stretched out his hands to compare their heads, and said with a smile: "Time flies so fast. Old man Gu, I will be as tall as you soon!"
Xie Qingfeng said meaningfully: "You will definitely be taller than me."
"But what is the purpose of being higher? If it is to see the best scenery, I have seen it now. If it is for immortality, what's the point of unhappy immortality?"
"You haven't gone to higher places, so how do you know that what you see now is the best view? You haven't lived forever, so how do you know that immortality is boring?"
"Old man Gu, do you know? Since I came to Jiankang, I have eaten the most expensive dragon gallbladder, the rarest stone marrow, the most delicious jellyfish, and the most nutritious jade...but what I like best is still you when I was a child.
I bought candied haws."
"I know that the reason why you want to teach the child of the Yuan family today is to vent my anger." Xie Qingfeng sighed quietly, looking in the direction of Qinghua Lane, his gentle brows showing a slight ripple for the first time.
Xie Xuan turned his head sideways and stared silently at his melancholy and thin face. He couldn't help but clenched his fists and dug his nails deeply into his palms. Yuan Wan's escape from marriage completely destroyed the energetic and talented Xie Qingfeng. At that time
Running wildly in the rain, he suddenly understood that the person beside him turned out to be as lonely as himself.
"But I have no grudges against Wan'er." Xie Qingfeng was silent for a long time, then suddenly smiled, his laughter lingering in the wind, "It's already good if you can like someone."
"Tch!" Xie Xuan rolled his eyes and stood silently with Xie Qingfeng. The black wings gradually covered it, and the surroundings were quiet and dark, but dots of lights lit up under the mountain.
"I said, old man Gu, I actually know that none of my friends are reliable. Bai Jian is strong and timid, Lu Lingyun is addicted to wine and sex, Zhou Chu is reckless and ruthless, Huan Wen is a character, but he is too scheming..." The boy
Standing in the darkness, looking down at the bright lights of thousands of houses, he said quietly, "But, the road up the mountain is too lonely. So, I want to stay down there for a while. When I have stopped enough and played enough,
I will listen to you, I will shoulder the responsibility of Yanwu Xie family, and walk on the path you want me to take."
The mountain wind blew up his cloak, and the dozen or so sachets tied around his waist swayed back and forth, flashing wisps of beautiful colored light. Xie Qingfeng patted him and sighed silently. Xie Xuan winked slyly: "You don't
Just say it, and I’ll treat it as if you agreed!”
Xie Qingfeng couldn't help but smile: "Okay, anyway, I will protect you."
The two of them laughed together, and Xie Xuan quietly turned his head to prevent tears from falling.
In the distance, a brilliant firework shot straight into the sky and exploded, showing the gorgeous shape of a pair of wings.
"Bang bang——" Fireworks rushed into the field of vision one after another, and the bright wings came in an endless stream, complementing each other and covering the entire night sky.
"This year's Yu Clan's Eight Wilderness Patrol Group is coming." Xie Qingfeng frowned slightly, his voice still steady and calm, "It's such an eventful spring."
