I am immortal

The young King Qin and his sister's departure from Zhongzhou Fucheng did not bring much ripples to this prosperous and large city.

The common people still do what they should do and live how they should live. Rather, there are more important things than the movements of these so-called big shots. There are only a few days left before the New Year's Day. , the entire Zhongzhou has begun to enter the festive atmosphere.

The young Taoist priest was dragged out several times by the little Taoist priest Mingxin to buy new year's goods.

Yue Shiru spent the whole day studying how to have a good relationship with the Sun Refining Sword hanging under Lu Zu's building.

But he also volunteered to help his uncle and Master Qi move the new year's goods.

The little Taoist priest Mingxin counted on his fingers: "I bought the fragrance of the ancestors, the meat for eating, and the grain. The Chinese cabbage and radish in winter are all piled up in the room. Well, they are hung in the kitchen. There are also peppers on the side, and the green onions piled in the corner are taller than me."

The little Taoist priest was very happy.

People on the road also had some joy on their faces.

Even though there were some sad things in this year and some obstacles that were not easy to get over, we finally got over it, and there will soon be a time when both adults and children can relax a little. The little Taoist Mingxin is because During this year's New Year's Eve celebration, there are two more people in the Taoist temple, so I am very happy.

I was so happy that I smiled and said hello to familiar people on the street.

Everyone replied a few words to him. At this time, everyone was very relaxed. This one touched the little Taoist priest's head and stuffed a handful of melon seeds into his arms. This one pinched the little Taoist priest who still had some baby fat. He had a small face, so he stuffed two big pears into his sleeves, and his arms were full of food along the way.

The little Taoist held his arms full and stood in a straight line on the road home.

When we returned to the Taoist temple, the three-yellow chickens came up to peck at the melon seeds, and the old Taoist priest was writing couplets. On the table, familiar pilgrims brought some new year's goods. Although Lianyang Temple was not low in seniority, it was The above several generations are the Taoism passed down by the Chunyang Patriarch, but after all, it is not well-known and does not have much wealth. Every year, the old Taoist priest will draw a few talismans and write some Spring Festival couplets to give to people.

The little Taoist priest placed the New Year's goods on the table, then ran to look and saw a few more small urns. He opened it and found pickled vegetables inside. He became happy and said, "It's Master Tai and the others who have sent them this year." New Year's Eve dishes?" There is not that big of a conflict between the Taoist and the monks, they are only monks and practitioners.

Due to precepts, many schools of monks do not eat meat.

Just be particular about the vegetarian dishes.

And because there aren’t many green leafy vegetables to eat in the winter, in order to preserve them, I came up with a lot of ideas for pickles. The little Taoists who make pickles call them “borrowed meals” because such dishes are so good with rice that they need to be eaten. I had to borrow rice from other people's houses to eat it. This is naturally an exaggeration, but I also know that this dish is excellent.

The old Taoist finished writing the couplet and chatted with the guests.

The little Taoist rummaged through and found a fruit plate that was only used during the Chinese New Year, and put all kinds of nuts in it. When keeping up with the New Year in winter, the old Taoist would heat a pot with boiling water and boil white tofu cut into cubes. It's steaming hot in your mouth. It's most delicious. Next to it is a vegetarian dish sent by the master of a Buddhist nunnery not far away.

While looking at the scenery, people were warming up by the fire. Some acquaintances would come to visit. The older ones chatted about the past year, while the younger ones just ate as much as they wanted, including melon seeds, red dates, peanuts, snacks, and more. There are big oranges, break them open and eat them, and then put the orange peels on the stove with a fire to bake.

You can smell the burnt and fruity aroma, and when you take a deep breath, your stomach feels warm.

Just be careful if you eat too much melon seeds and peanuts and you will get angry, and you won't be able to eat a lot of delicious food the next day.

The little Taoist priest said happily, and pointed to the cold room that had never had a fire, and said: "Dang dang dang, this is the best thing, Master Qi, and, ahem, Yue Xiaotusun, I’ll eat these on the New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day!”

He opened the big bamboo woven lid, and there were black bowls inside, containing various meat dishes, including sliced ​​roast pork, Sixi meatballs, and fermented bean curd made with the color and taste of fermented bean curd. The meat is wrapped in flour and fried into crispy slices. Because it is a meat dish, it is sealed with oil and placed in this cold room. It can be sealed for a long time in winter. During the New Year, when it is necessary to eat, it is taken out and steamed. Convenient for entertaining friends and family.

"Hey, these are delicious."

"You guys will definitely like it."

The little Taoist priest Mingxin's eyes were bright. He followed the teacher's example and clasped his hands behind his back, stroking his beard and said: "Hmph, you should look forward to it. You will be very happy that day. It's a pity that the teacher always said that I still have Little, I’m still little, so don’t teach me how to cook these dishes.”

"But it doesn't matter. I can learn it in one or two years!"

"Ha, you little guy."

The old Taoist priest couldn't help laughing.

Qi Wuhuo stood on the hillside where the Lianyang Temple was located. He looked outside and saw the joy of the entire city. The changes in the world were so beautiful. He had only been here for a month or two and saw many things. There were more choices than in his previous life, and even his mood seemed to have relaxed.

He couldn't make it through last year's New Year's Day, but he seems to be able to make it this year.

When the young Taoist priest was walking down the street that day, he bought a large inscription with the Chinese character "福" and a small post posted on the wall behind the entrance. The red paper was dipped in golden ink, and four words of "福" were written on it. The young Taoist turned over the words over and over again and felt that he liked them very much.

All is well.

There are also two ornaments, one is a peace knot woven with red rope, with tassels hanging down, and a small inexpensive bead hanging on it. Girls in the world will buy these during the New Year. The ornaments are hung on the side of the clothes and hang down. When walking around, the red tassels will sway slightly. It is a beautiful and inexpensive little entertainment.

The young Taoist bought a slightly better one with the money he earned from collecting herbs.

Hanging on it is jade.

I entrusted the Mingzhen Taoist Alliance to find it. It is said that this jade can make the mind clear and free from worries.

My best wishes.

The young Taoist chose this one among the two jade materials to bless his academic progress and the Wenqu Blessing. After all, if the Wenqu Blessing is effective, Uncle Niu will definitely bother the Wenqu Xingjun every day. Every festival in the world is a hope. If you are happy, it is better not to mention things that will make Yun Qin unhappy.

The other is a bracelet woven with five-color silk thread.

It is a custom in many places to decorate bracelets with five-color threads during the Dragon Boat Festival and New Year's Day to ward off evil spirits. They must be worn for at least half a day.

The little Taoist priest Mingxin said curiously: "Uncle Qi, this is from the girl's family, we should use this!"

He raised his hand, and in his hand was a new wooden sword!

There was also a dragon drawn on the scabbard of the wooden sword that didn't look very good. If Chaofeng and Jiaotu saw it, they would laugh loudly. The little Taoist waved the new wooden sword, then danced with a sword flower and carried it on his back. He looked like a master, and then said: "How is it!"

Yue Shiru was dumbfounded.

Lu Zu hung his sword here. Could it be that this young master's uncle didn't practice swordsmanship? !

When I was young, my swordsmanship with a radius of ten miles and the headless cauliflower was more handsome than this one, right?

The young Taoist took the red rope jade pendant back into his hand and replied gently:

"Ah, very good."

So Yue Shiru was solemn and energetic when faced with this [nonsense] level of swordsmanship.

The real person said yes.

That must be good!

I feel bad.

That must be my problem!

You have to watch and observe!

Yue Shiru studied swordsmanship with the young master's uncle seriously. The young Taoist felt very happy to have someone to play with. The old Taoist was refining alchemy sand. Next to him, three yellow chickens were walking in a square step, lowering their heads to peck melon seeds roasted with fruit wood. Wondering why my chickens have never eaten these seeds?

Sighing again, why aren’t there a few pullets?

The young Taoist's spirit 'heard' the sighs of the three yellow chickens and couldn't help laughing.

Holding the red string jade beads in hand, everything in front of you is peaceful.

The Taoist temple in front, the mortal world behind.

The young man carries his sword.

Even when everyone in the world is happy and relaxed, although the young Taoist felt a sense of relaxation, he still did not relax his practice. He still carried out the Taoist [Qi Refining] that day. Don't be slow, don't force yourself, just naturally practice at the level of a real person.

The soul is clear, the spirit is natural, and reflects all things.

Qi Wuhuo suddenly saw Feng Qi and heard the wind chimes shaking under the Taoist temple. He subconsciously opened his eyes and walked out. He saw that the clouds outside suddenly became extremely thick and heavy. His eyes widened and the entire city suddenly expanded. Taoist Next to it, the jade book given by Tao Taigong was unfolded, showing the mountains, rivers and cities of the entire Zhongzhou.

The entire Zhongzhou was shrouded in terrifying and thick black clouds, rolling and billowing.

The young Taoist's eyes were dazzled, and he saw the little Yaoling sleeping there, curled up. When Qi Wuhuo smiled and was about to greet him, he suddenly heard a roar, and then a black Qi machine enveloped him. The tiger below opened its mouth and swallowed the little medicinal spirit into its mouth. Its sharp teeth bit together, leaving only a childish scream.

Qi Wuhuo's pupils shrank and he stepped forward suddenly, but suddenly he saw a cliff at his feet.

See the mountains.

They all burned and turned into a sea of ​​fire.

Suddenly, his heart hurt. He lowered his head and saw a sword piercing his heart. Ripples appeared in front of his eyes. The light behind the reflection was the mandrill he killed, with red eyes.

The young Taoist opened his eyes suddenly.

Breathing was a little rapid, and a thin layer of sweat formed on his forehead.

The scene just now was just a hallucination, and not long ago, the young Taoist said to himself: "Taoist practitioners, on a whim, the heart is the nature. This is the nature warning... something is going to happen, little one." Yao Ling is in danger of dying, and he is reminding me that I cannot participate in it, otherwise, I may die..."

He pressed his heart, and the feeling of death at that moment was extremely heavy!

Just like when a person is dreaming, the moment when he steps into the air and falls off the cliff is intensified hundreds of times.

"Is this the reason why you have a clear mind and avoid disasters?"

Qi Wuhuo suddenly heard bursts of whistling.

Lowering his head, he saw the mirror hanging on one side of his waist, which was inextricably related to Beidi. It was shaking violently, emitting layers of light, illuminating the sutra pavilion, Qi Wulu's spirit Clearly, he realized something, grabbed the mirror, and stepped out.

He saw the wind blowing because of the dancing wine flags.

He heard the wind chimes on the Taoist temple dancing extremely.

When I raised my head, I saw the bright sun, but all the stars were visible, and they seemed to be frozen. In the distance, I could see the clouds pressing down and rolling thickly. People's mood was not affected by such things. , just having fun and talking about whether it will snow.

I heard people saying pleasant words loudly:

"All is well!"

"Everything is safe!"

Yue Shiru suddenly felt something. He turned his head and saw the young Taoist standing there, his Taoist robe swaying.

Qi Wuhuo closed his eyes, knowing from the reminder from his spirit that something might be abnormal this time, and the mountains were the first to be affected. The old Taoist looked at the young Taoist curiously, and asked with a smile: "Fellow Taoist Qi, what's wrong? Yes?" Did you forget to buy anything?"

"nothing……"

The young Taoist came back to his senses, smiled, and replied: "It's just that I forgot to do something."

After thinking for a while, he added: "Humanity has prosperous luck and can resist foreign objects."

"If nothing happens today, don't leave the city."

The old Taoist was slightly startled when he heard this, and then he frowned and said, "The old Taoist knows."

The young Taoist stood up and pressed the sword box with his right hand. He must go. If he knew it but didn't go and took care of himself, then he would be like the god of Yujie Mountain. Could it be that he could only criticize others and not talk about himself? Want to retreat? That is not a rightful person, and besides, his friend Xiao Yaoling will also be in danger.

Both public and private, there is no shirking duty, and there is never any ripple or hesitation in the Taoist heart.

But suddenly I thought of the Dao Lord's evaluation of the Thief-Killing Sword, and also thought of the spiritual warning that if I wielded the Thief-Killing Sword, I might die, so I put down my hand, thought about it, and ended the peace. Take it out and put it down.

If it's stained with blood, it's not easy to send it out.

Today is New Year's Eve, when all things begin to change, it is time to stay up late, entertain guests, offer sacrifices, pray for blessings, reward gods, seek wealth, meet noble people, get engaged, get married, build and bury buildings, and use the green dragon as a stove.

Said: Everything is appropriate.

Avoid traveling and going to work.

The boy went out.

The judge arrived for his appointment.

Yue Shiru was stunned. Going out at this time? He suddenly thought of the mandrill infected by the demonic miasma. His eyes widened slightly, as if he had guessed something. The young Taoist raised his fingers to his lips. The young Taoist behind him was still happy, but the old Taoist was already packing his things in a hurry. I plan to tell some people not to leave the city.

The young Taoist walked past Lu Zulou, thought for a moment, and said, "I have something to do today, would you like to come with me?"

The sword hissed, as if mocking.

The young Taoist picked up the sword technique that Master Shangqing Dao had pointed out.

Then the Lian Yang Sword became silent, and suddenly it roared several times, and left the scabbard straight into the palm of the young man's hand. The long sword was in his hand. This sword seemed to know that there was a killing move, and that there was a great calamity. Ordinary weapons seemed to have spirituality. He retreated in fear, but when the sword sensed the calamity energy, it became even more joyful, and screamed endlessly, as if it was roaring.

The original words on the sword were suddenly scattered.

The floor suddenly trembled, and Yue Shiru saw the writing on the sword being peeled off and then falling to the ground.

Every word is extremely heavy.

It seemed that even the drop made the Taoist temple tremble heavily.

In an instant, a line of free and easy words appeared on the floor of the Taoist temple.

[Wandering around the world with this sword, I killed too much and could no longer restrain myself. I hurt myself several times and it came back to me. I abandoned it here and left one of my Dharma veins to suppress it. In the name of refining Yang, I made Yang strong. Qi kills the murderous intention of the cold and cold - Lu Chunyang]

The sword body returned to its original appearance.

Yue Shiru was stunned and speechless.

This sword is no longer Lu Chunyang's sword.

This sword is no longer Lu Zu’s sword.

This sword has been abandoned by Lu Zu.

The young Taoist holds a sword, with the Northern Emperor's mirror hanging on one side and the judge's seal hanging on the other. He wears a Taoist robe with wooden hairpins and sleeves dyed with thunder patterns.

Moreover, everything in the world of mortals is suitable for everything.

"May everything be safe."
