The Wheel-Turning Master

The moon shattered, turning into pieces of broken jade.

For a moment, Xiuxiu was in a trance, as if she had crossed the Milky Way.

When she opened her eyes again, she saw the peach forest again.

There was a deep pool in front of her, more than a hundred feet in size. There was a small island on it, with an old peach tree, with pale pink petals and no green leaves. Below it, a blue fox was sleeping soundly.

The moonlight was soft, reflecting on the deep pool.

This place was like a pure land in the dark night, without the sound of birds and beasts, and it was very quiet.

"Blue... fox... Fairy Chenyu."

Xiuxiu didn't know how she came here, but she immediately guessed who the fox in front of her was.

She was not stupid. She had heard a lot about Fairy Chenyu when she was in Yunxia Sect. In particular, this fairy had a strange temperament and was always insidious. She had given her master an ugly nickname.

This sudden encounter did not make Xiuxiu think about any great fortune. Anyway, she knelt down without saying a word.

Before leaving the mountain, Xiuxiu was reminded to be kind to others. If someone insists on picking a fight, then it depends on the situation. If the other party is a Qi training cultivator, you can fight, and run away if you can't beat him; if you meet a foundation building cultivator, try not to fight, if you must fight, you can't keep a backhand; if you meet a golden elixir, forget it, kneel down and beg for mercy.

As for what to do when you meet a Yuanying, the master never said it, and the senior sister never said it. The instructor in the sect didn't mention it, and various classics didn't record it.

Xiuxiu didn't have time to tidy up her clothes, just kneeled down very obediently.

"Yunxia Sect Zhong Xiuxiu accidentally broke into the fairy's bedroom, please don't blame the fairy." With her forehead touching the green grass on the ground, she waited for a long time, but the fox didn't move at all.

Xiuxiu came from a big sect, although she had never seen blood, she had a vision. According to the elders of the sect, usually the higher the realm, the less likely you will be to see the small shrimps of the lower realm. Anyway, kowtow more and don't be rude. People are often too lazy to pinch small ants.

Besides, although this Fairy Chenyu came from Mianlong Mountain, she has been in Qiaoshan Sect for hundreds of years. She has long gotten rid of the violence of monsters and beasts. Instead, she is close to monks, loves the beauty of the world, and has never killed. She is also polite and knowledgeable, speaks fluently, and has learned the ability to say mean words from somewhere.

After thinking for a long time, although Xiuxiu still knelt without moving, she relaxed a little.

Carefully feeling the ethereal feeling in her heart, the foundation-building revelation is still there, pointing to the small island of Youtan where Fairy Chenyu stayed.

Xiuxiu was stunned for a while, secretly glanced at Fairy Chenyu, and quickly lowered her head.

Fairy Chenyu clearly slept more and more soundly!

Although the matter involves the great way, it is better to be cautious.

After thinking for a while, Xiuxiu decided to leave this place first and visit the fairy after she wakes up.

Senior Sister Meng said that Fairy Chen Yu was very angry when she got up. She once shit on the heads of the juniors of Qiaoshan Sect one by one. She really didn't have the demeanor of a senior.

With a clear mind, Xiu Xiu knelt on the ground, not daring to look up, and just knelt back.

After a long time of hard work, the grass under her body was green. Looking around, the peach blossoms were still there, and she was still in the peach blossom forest.

"Why is it so big?"

She muttered in her heart and raised her head slightly. There was no Youtan in front of her, let alone the figure of Fairy Chen Yu.

"Where did she go?"

Thinking in her heart, she looked back again. She saw that Youtan was behind her! There was a small island in the pool, with peach trees on it and a green fox lying below.

If she took a few more steps back, she would fall into the water!

It was inappropriate to face someone with her butt.

Xiu Xiu quickly turned around and knelt towards the fox.

"Just now I was clearly retreating. I should have been getting farther and farther away from the pool. Why are you getting closer?"

Xiuxiu knew that she was in a maze or had encountered some magic, so she stopped thinking about it. Anyway, without the order of Fairy Chen Yu, it would be difficult for her to leave this place.

She looked at the blue fox in the middle of the pool, and remembered the principles that her elders had said, such as climbing bravely, not fearing hardships, and risking one's life for a chance.

After shoring up her courage, Xiuxiu was about to speak.

"Fairy." The voice was soft.

"Senior." Xiuxiu was more obedient.

"Sister." Xiuxiu used the tone she used to talk to Qu Ruyi.

"Chiji..."

The mole was hungry, so Xiuxiu immediately covered the pouch on her waist and whispered to comfort her: "I'll give it to you later, be obedient."

"Chiji..." The mole understood and responded.

"Is it hungry?" Suddenly a crisp female voice came from behind.

Xiuxiu turned her head quickly and saw a woman in yellow clothes several dozen steps away.

The woman was at the Qi training level, without any fierceness, but with a curious look on her face. She held five or six green fruits in her hands, and had a small yellow bird on her shoulder.

Before Xiuxiu entered the mountain, she heard from Senior Sister Meng Yuan that someone had found Fairy Chenyu, but because of his low level, he was unable to form a life contract.

The one who delivered the message at that time was the small yellow bird. Now it seems that the person who found Fairy Chenyu is the woman in front of her.

The woman came to Xiuxiu, sat cross-legged, put the fruit on the grass, picked up one and took a bite, and pointed to the purse on Xiuxiu's waist, "Is it hungry?"

Xiuxiu didn't dare to say anything, just nodded, for fear of disturbing Fairy Chenyu's good dream. She didn't want to suffer the fairy's morning grumpiness, and she didn't want to be pooped by a bird.

"Feed it, don't let it get hungry." The woman said while chewing the fruit.

Xiuxiu was very obedient. She immediately took out her purse and let the mole out.

She took out some dried fruit, and the mole immediately picked it up and ate it.

The little yellow bird saw it and immediately started to chirp and peck at the mole.

The mole didn't dare to say anything, but just kept eating, looking honest.

"Don't bully it." The woman grabbed the little yellow bird and picked up a fruit and threw it to Xiuxiu.

Xiuxiu took it blankly.

"What's your name?" the woman asked curiously.

Xiuxiu glanced at Fairy Shen Yu who was still sleeping, and whispered: "My name is Zhong Xiuxiu."

"You don't need to be careful about what you say." The woman gnawed on the fruit, very relaxed, "My master won't wake up even if there is a thunder, so don't worry." She finally added, "My name is Huang Ruhua."

"Sister Huang." Xiu Xiu was very well-behaved and asked curiously: "Is Fairy Shen Yu my sister's mentor?"

"So be it." Huang Ruhua sighed.

"Really?" Xiu Xiu was puzzled, "How did my sister become a disciple?"

"It's simple." Huang Ruhua gnawed on the fruit, "I was resting in the cave, and she came in to take shelter from the rain. Seeing that I was unhappy, she asked me why I was unhappy. I said that my master was dead, that's why I was unhappy. She said that she was old If you don't get it, you can't come back. I snatched the spiritual fruit from her and asked her if she had any sympathy. I said she didn't care about you, and she said she didn't care about me either. After spending a few days with her, she said she was leaving, so I gave her some fruits, and she asked me to become her disciple. I said, "Save it. Who are you?" She said her name was Li Chenyu, so I quickly accepted her. division."

Huang Ruhua spoke simply, as if gossiping.

"..." Xiuxiu couldn't understand, how could there be such a blessed person?

"How did you find this place?" Huang Ruhua asked curiously.

"I fell into a deep pool and ended up here inexplicably." Xiuxiu replied honestly.

"It is indeed the method left by the master, or the slate I placed." Huang Ruhua gnawed on the fruit, "You haven't built the foundation yet, but there are no scars on your body. Didn't you meet any bad guys or monsters on the road? Can someone help you? you?"

"No." Xiuxiu took the fruit but didn't eat it. She just whispered: "I also encountered colleagues and monsters, but there was no danger."

"This..." Huang Ruhua was stunned for a moment after hearing this. She had never seen such a blessed person.

After staying for a while, Huang Ruhua frowned and said: "If you are not familiar with the terrain, even if you build three or five foundations, it will be difficult to get close to the deep pool. You are so lucky!"

She stared at Xiuxiu for a long time, almost making Xiuxiu blush, and then asked: "You haven't built a foundation yet, how can the elders of the master let you enter the mountain?"

"I'm here to find an opportunity to build a foundation." Xiu Xiu made no secret.

"..." Huang Ruhua fell silent, looked up at the green-furred fox, and said blankly: "You were in no danger along the way, and the foundation is in front of you..." She curled her lips, as if envious, "You are... really lucky Qitian.”

Seeing the two girls chatting enthusiastically, Xiao Huangque couldn't help it anymore. He fluttered his wings and flew in circles, and said angrily: "What kind of good fortune? It's far from enough!"

"Then what counts as good fortune?" Huang Ruhua was unconvinced.

The little oriole looked lazy, landed on Huang Ruhua's head, and said plausibly: "I once read ancient books in the Qiaoshan Sect, and it was said that there was a man thousands of years ago. He was not from a noble family, nor a sect, but he was not good at cultivation. Zhan was quite depressed! But one day, he was favored by the great road and reached the sky in one step. "

"Really?" Huang Ruhua didn't believe it, "Master, don't make such nonsense."

"Why are you lying to me?" When the little oriole saw his disciple questioning, he immediately got angry and said in a crisp voice: "That man's companion spirit beast is a Pegasus, and his speed is the best in the same realm! Also, there is a spirit leopard in the snowy area. Come out of the mountain and follow him as your master! He only stops for a moment on the bumpy road that others have been unable to pass through for hundreds of years and thousands of years, and the road is coming to him! He does not know astronomy and geography, and does not read Taoist scriptures, but his path to practice is smooth! No obstacles, he has the reputation of being a king! Although he is a little clumsy, he has the way to return to his true nature."

The little oriole stood on Huang Ruhua's head, raising its head and chest, as if it knew the other person. It proudly said: "This is the real good fortune!" and scolded: "You two have no knowledge at all! "

Huang Ruhua was shocked, and so was Xiu Xiu.

"Master, this kind of person must be the master of one party, right?" Huang Ruhua asked curiously.

The little oriole shook her head, "How do I know? Maybe it has broken through the void and ascended to other realms."

After hearing this, the two women thought about their respective paths of spiritual practice, and were unable to speak for a long time.

The oriole flew up, grabbed a handful of mole hair, and landed on Huang Ruhua's head.

The little bird head looked at Xiuxiu and said: "I see that your destiny is the moon shadow of the Yuantan, inheriting the moon shadow, tracing its origin, and cultivating the yin and yang of numerology, is your master a little turtle?"

Her voice was very similar to Qu Chengjia's.

Xiuxiu was stunned for a moment and replied: "Fairy, my master is the Yunxia Sect's Bagua Shanqu Taochengjia."

"Isn't that still a little turtle?" asked the little oriole.

Xiuxiu remained silent.

Huang Ruhua couldn't stand it any longer, so she grabbed Huang Que and said, "Master, you spoke ill of my mentor in front of your disciples. This is not what an elder would do."

Xiuxiu looked at Huang Ruhua gratefully.

Little Yellow Bird shook his head, "I didn't say anything bad, and I'm not an elder."

"Master, just imagine," Huang Ruhua felt helpless and still said, "If I were walking outside and heard someone say something bad about you, Master, Master -"

She stared at the little oriole very reasonably, "What do you think I should do?"

"Just do whatever you want." Xiao Huangque shook his head and said, "Don't you want to deal with the Yunxia Sect?"

"I have clear grudges, and I won't hinder Xiu Xiu's affairs. Besides, it's all settled now, and the grudges will be cleared soon." Huang Ruhua said.

"You always have a point, and I don't know who you learned it from. A stupid good person will suffer as much as he can from now on." Little Yellow Bird complained.

"Master, let's not talk about this." Huang Ruhua said with a smile: "Xiuxiu is here to find an opportunity to build a foundation, which meets your requirements for the three major sects."

"Am I stupid? In your words?" The little oriole pecked Huang Ruhua's forehead hard, "Come on, let me weigh it first!" As he spoke, the little oriole flew to the middle of the deep pool. .

"Follow me." Huang Ruhua lost the core, took one of Mole's dried fruits, and pulled Xiuxiu forward.

The two women stepped onto the deep pool and felt as if they were walking on flat ground.

Stepping forward, we came to the small island in the middle and sat down together on our knees under the peach tree.

The little oriole lay on the ground, and Huang Ruhua held the fox in her arms again.

"Fairy." Xiu Xiu kowtowed respectfully.

"No need." The fox flicked his tail, his voice becoming lazier. "The study of numerology is difficult and profound, and it is not easy to learn. First, look at the compatibility of the natal life, and secondly, look at the talent. The former is not as important as the latter, but most of those who practice this way are people who have the compatibility of the natal life."

Fairy Shen Yu opened her eyes, cupped Huang Ruhua, and asked, "How many skills have you learned?"

Xiuxiu shook her head and replied: "I am born stupid, my level is low, and I have only scratched the surface."

The fox's tail twitched, "That's right. What skills can I learn from following Qu Chengjia?" She still listened to her apprentice's advice and stopped using the nickname "Little Turtle".

"Master," Huang Ruhua corrected, "Qu Chengjia is well-known for her careful study of numerology and her knowledge of the changes in yin and yang. She is well-known among the three major sects. I heard that Jieying has hope, how can you say she can't do it?"

"What do you know?" Fairy Shen Yu immediately taught her apprentice, saying: "The way of numerology is to watch the river from the bank. How can Qu Chengjia do well if he goes into the water all the time? If she also practiced other methods, it would be okay, but she If you start from the way of numerology, you will gain less and lose more in the end.”

The fox stretched its tail and said, "In my opinion, it's difficult for that child to prove the Dao." This sentence sounded old and had the air of an axe.

Xiuxiu immediately bowed her head.

Huang Ruhua held down the fox's tail. She knew that her master had a habit of imitating other people's speech. When she saw Xiuxiu, she immediately bowed her head in obeisance with a respectful look on her face. She knew in her heart that this was her master imitating the words of the old master of the Yunxia Sect.

It was just that I had heard that the old sect leader was in seclusion and that the affairs of the sect were usually handled by the two Yuanying elders, together with Po Yunzi and others, but I didn’t know how the master knew the old sect leader.

"But that's it, you always have to keep your word." The fox seemed helpless when he said it, but his tone was very happy, "There is no danger for you to go into the deep mountains, and the teleportation formation I set up is consistent with your destiny. It can be seen that we They are a perfect match." Fox stared at Xiuxiu and smiled, "It would be better if I can give you some advice."

"Fairies are also good at numerology and yin and yang?" Xiuxiu asked curiously.

"I was very bored during my free time in Qiaoshan School, so I learned a little bit." The fox wagged its tail. "But this fairy's real skill lies in numerology of yin and yang. You will know in the future."

"Master, why didn't you tell me?" Huang Ruhua tried her best to smooth the fox's fur.

"You didn't ask." The fox was annoyed.

"Fairy, can you help me deduce it?" Xiuxiu asked in a low voice.

"You're here to ask about the future when we're approaching Foundation Establishment?" the fox laughed.

"I'm not asking about the future, I'm trying to find someone's whereabouts." Xiuxiu opened a small purse on her wrist and took out a wooden hairpin. "It's something he's been wearing for a long time."

As soon as the fox's tail moved, he immediately rolled up the wooden hairpin, "I carry it with me every day, and I am still thinking about it at this moment. It must be the possession of my sweetheart!" She became more and more weird, "You are not very old, look at this wooden hairpin. At that time, you probably didn’t even come to Tiangui, right?”

After saying that, he looked at Huang Ruhua and said, "You idiot, outsiders say foxes are coquettish, but in fact people are the most coquettish."

Huang Ruhua covered her forehead and said: "Master, her Yuan Yin is still there. At that time, she was in love, so what if she fell in love with others? You have been in the Qiaoshan sect for hundreds of years. Is it possible that you have never seen the girl Huaichun? If everyone Are there people in the world who are as pure-minded as you, Master?"

The fox glared like a flower, and said angrily: "How about you become the master!"

Huang Ruhua didn't dare to say anything, and muttered something in her mouth.

The fox's tail was wrapped around the wooden hairpin, and he looked at Xiuxiu and asked, "You can't deduce the other person's life or death, let alone where he is?"

"Yes." Xiu Xiu said honestly, "If I exchange it for other things, I can always get something. But with this thing alone, I always get nothing and can't see anything."

"It's still too stupid." The fox smiled proudly, "Everything is connected by wires, and those who have gained the Tao can trace their origins. I can even tell you how many women he has slept with!"

The fox shook his tail, "Let's see what this fairy does!"

I saw that the fox's green fur was slightly blurred, and its figure was also faintly visible.

The old peach trees dropped pieces of peach blossoms, and they flew into the distance one after another, disappearing in an instant.

After a long time, the fox opened his eyes.

Xiu Xiu looked forward to it, but didn't dare to ask.

"Master, have we reached the deduction? Where is that person? What does he look like?" Huang Ruhua was even more excited than Xiu Xiu.

"What are you urging me for?" The fox was annoyed, and his voice was no longer lazy. Instead, he became serious, "The yin and yang of numerology is the most difficult and difficult, and it seems to be like looking into the sky and the earth! If you rely on everything, your path will be blocked!"

"Disciple, please remember this." After listening to the master's instructions, Huang Ruhua looked much more docile. After respectfully responding, she asked, "Then what did the master deduce this time?"

Huang Ruhua's eyes were bright, and the reverence on her face became more apparent.

"Fairy, are there any gains from the deduction?" Xiu Xiu also asked with great admiration.

"The secret must not be leaked." The fox smiled lightly and said, "I can only tell you that that person is still alive."

"Yes?" Xiuxiu was stunned.

The fox nodded.

Xiuxiu looked at Fairy Shen Yu and said to herself that the master's deduction was fruitless, and the senior sister couldn't even count one, two, three, and the same could be said for you, right?

Although I thought so in my heart, I didn't dare to say it out loud, let alone raise any questions.

"Master, you have read Xiuxiu for many years, why don't you reveal a little bit..."

Before Huang Ruhua finished speaking, the fox jumped out of her arms.

"You are here to seek an opportunity to build a foundation. I, Master and Disciple Li Chenyu, will never hinder others from becoming enlightened." The fox said seriously, lifting his feet off the ground and stretching vigorously.

"Xiuxiu, please." Huang Ruhua also said immediately.

"Thank you Fairy and Sister Huang." Xiu Xiu saluted respectfully.

Huang Ruhua nodded, grabbed the little oriole that was still sleeping on the ground, walked away, and went to the shore to watch the ceremony.

Xiuxiu sat down cross-legged, and the fox immediately jumped into the crook of her legs and huddled up.

"Fairy..." Xiu Xiu didn't dare to move.

"You build your own foundation." The fox closed his eyes.

Xiuxiu had no choice but to borrow other people's land to build the foundation. Naturally, there would be a lot of inconvenience, so she just had to tolerate it.

Sit quietly with your eyes closed to relax your mood.

After two hours, Xiuxiu opened her eyes, took out various complementary elixirs, and swallowed them one by one.

"Are we about to start?" Fairy Shen Yu changed her sleeping position and exposed her belly.

"Yes." Xiuxiu answered honestly.

"Don't you sing a song first?" asked the fox.

"Sing...sing a paragraph?" Xiu Xiu was stunned for a moment, then understood, and immediately explained: "What the fairy said is a verse, right? This is actually a poem about the things that happened to him and the people he met before building the foundation. The place you live in, or the understanding of various things, is to seek to be in line with your state of mind, or to be in line with your destiny, to be in line with what you want, and to be in harmony with your heart."

Xiu Xiu answered seriously, "Actually, the so-called verses can be spoken or unspoken. Generally speaking, if someone is watching the ceremony, they really have to say something about their state of mind."

"Aren't these all humans?" The fox turned its tail in a circle, "I am indeed not a human." The tail pointed to the distance again, "My apprentice can barely be considered a human, right?"

"..." Xiuxiu had never seen such an inconspicuous senior. She looked at Huang Ruhua on the bank of the deep pool.

I saw Huang Ruhua sitting cross-legged, with the little oriole on her shoulder, the mole in the crook of her leg, and six pairs of eyes watching.

Looking down at his arms, the fox exposed his belly, with his feet in the air, and actually looked at him again.

The bright moon is bright, the deep pool is quiet, and a full moon is reflected.

"Fairy, how far is this place from Longmenfang?" Xiuxiu asked softly.

"More than a thousand miles, right? Maybe two thousand miles." The fox said lazily.

After Xiu Xiu was silent for a long time, she finally spoke.

"Recalling this journey, starting from Yunxia Zongwang's return to the island, he took a flying boat and entered the deep mountains. He stepped into the deep pool and passed the fairy's magical method to reach here."

"Further forward, starting from Huaxi County, we will cross tens of thousands of miles of mountains and seas, see the rotation of the sun and the moon, and countless cold stars, before we enter the Bagua Mountain."

"No disaster, no danger, everything goes smoothly. My teachers love me, and my juniors respect me."

"When I was young, I studied medicine. I only hoped that my parents would take a break, but I wanted to support them without waiting. When I was young, I practiced Taoism, just to return home after thousands of miles, but I couldn't get it."

"My destiny is the shadow of the moon in a deep pool. No matter where the moon is, no matter how deep the pool is, I still get nothing."

"Where are the people? Where is the Tao?"

The bright moon reflected between her eyebrows, Xiuxiu continued: "The Tao lies in the mountains and rivers, and the Tao lies in the spring and autumn."

"What I did this time, I didn't care about the bad luck. I just walked on the mountains and rivers and spent the spring and autumn."

The Taoist robe moves automatically without wind, and the black hair is fluttering. Pieces of peach blossoms were falling, and there was a hairpin in the fox's claws, and he stretched out his claws to catch the petals.

After a while, clouds gathered and covered the bright moon.

Above the deep pool, the moon's shadow swayed slightly and then dissipated.

The petals of the old peach tree have fallen off, and a few green buds have emerged.

After a long time, the clouds had not dispersed, but the shadow of the moon was reflected on the pond.

Xiuxiu opened her eyes, and the shadow of the moon in the deep pool was reflected in her eyes, and then disappeared.

The fox stood in front of her, tail swaying, head raised, looking at Xiuxiu, his eyes also deep.

"The foundation of the road has been completed, and the sky is high and the sea is vast."

The fox's voice was no longer lazy, but solemn and full of expectation, "With this fate as a contract, from now on you have me, and I have you. If you are prosperous, you will be prosperous, and if you are deprived, you will be deprived."

She looked at Xiuxiu and asked, "Are you ready?"

Xiuxiu nodded.

"Close your eyes." The fox took a step forward, raised his front paw, and placed it between Xiuxiu's eyebrows.
