The small town, when the lanterns are in the early stage, began to lively, people coming and going, people feel the vitality.
Walking on this dilapidated street, there is always a variety of smells in the air, such as the smell of barbecue, the smell of rouge gouache, and the smell of gardenia...
The red dust is rolling, this is the red dust, full of all kinds of suffering, but also full of all kinds of vitality. In this kind of human world, on every inch of land, there are creatures struggling to survive. Maybe there are such things in this world. It's not easy, but the creatures in the world, all their efforts, are multiplying their own race, making the world full of vitality.
Walking on such a dilapidated street, Li Qiye couldn't help taking a deep breath. There were various smells in the air. For him, the smell was so memorable.
In the world, what kind of delicacy has he not tasted? What kind of delicacy have not smelled? He can taste the deliciousness of the world, such as dragon liver and phoenix gallbladder, tiger marrow shark fin, but the most memorable thing is still the smell of red dust in this world.
No matter when it is, no matter where it is, whether it is experiencing violent storms or rain, or extreme cold and heat, but the smell of red dust in this world is so unforgettable.
"If the world is tasteless, the great world will die." Li Qiye could not help but sigh softly, very emotional.
When Li Qiye was walking on this dilapidated street, when he looked at a person, he couldn't help but stop.
"We have recruited disciples, we have recruited disciples. Our Changshengyuan is the first faction in the holy city. We recruit disciples and sign up soon." By the side of the road, an old Taoist priest held the cloth in one hand, while beckoning, it was like a road. Like the hawkers at the side stalls, they seem to be talking about their small business.
However, the people in Xiaocheng seemed to be used to the yelling of the old Taoist priest, and no one stopped coming and going, and occasionally someone just chuckled and said something.
No matter what, the old Taoist priest didn't care, he still held up the cloth and beckoned and shouted.
This old Taoist priest looks quite old, fifty or sixty years old. He is wearing a Taoist robe. The Taoist robe looks very wide on him, with a few holes in it, but it is just a patch indiscriminately. The craftsmanship is poor. It makes people look down on it, such a robe might be worn by his master and passed on to him.
Although the old Taoist priest is not young, his temples are white, but he has a look of tonghe hair, his old face does not have many wrinkles, and looks ruddy. It can be seen that he has lived for many years, but his bones are still very healthy. , It can even be said to be alive and well.
The old Taoist held cloth in his hand, and the three characters "Changshengyuan" were written on the cloth, but the characters were ugly. The three characters "Changshengyuan" were written crookedly, like a ghost painting.
Seeing such a scene of the old Taoist priest, Li Qiye stopped smiling involuntarily.
"Little brother, come to my Changshengyuan? Our Changshengyuan rarely recruits apprentices once a year. We are destined to join our Changshengyuan." When Li Qiye was about to leave, the old Taoist immediately greeted Li Qiye.
Because the flow of people on the street came and went, no one would stop and watch. As soon as Li Qiye stopped, he was caught by the old Taoist priest.
"You are recruiting apprentices after you wake up once a year." A local person who passed by couldn't help but laughed and said jokingly: "You have recruited apprentices for several years."
"No such thing, no such thing, our longevity hospital recruits disciples, the most important is fate, fate, yes, no fate, then don't want to enter our longevity courtyard." The old Taoist was run by passers-by, his old face was hot, immediately Swearing appearance.
"Well, Peng Daoshi, I will not spoil your good deeds." The passerby laughed, shook his head, and walked away.
Li Qiye couldn't help showing a faint smile.
Li Qiye didn’t leave, so Peng Daoshi saw the opportunity. He immediately pulled Li Qiye’s sleeves, as if he was afraid of Li Qiye’s sudden escape, and said hurriedly: "This little brother, come to our Changshengyuan, our Changshengyuan. It is the first religion of the holy city. If you worship our Changshengyuan, it is our fate. This fate is something that others can ask for and cannot get..."? At this time, how is Peng Daoshi like recruiting apprentices? It was like begging Li Qiye to join them in the Changshengyuan.
"What are the benefits of visiting your Changshengyuan?" Li Qiye couldn't help laughing, and said.
Seeing Li Qiye’s heart moved, Peng Daoshi hurriedly boasted: "If you visit our Changshengyuan, you will definitely become the chief disciple of our Changshengyuan, you will inherit my mantle, and you will definitely become the master of the Changshengyuan in the future. It is famous all over the world..."
"... If you visit our Changshengyuan with food and accommodation, our Changshengyuan has one of the few sea-view villas in the holy city..." Afraid that Li Qiye would be unimpressed, Monk Peng would blow his own Changshengyuan. It's a mess.
Li Qiye couldn't help laughing when he saw Peng Daoshi blowing up the sky.
"You can try, try, our Changshengyuan is very free, if you think it is not suitable, it will not be too late to leave." Seeing that Li Qiye hadn't moved yet, Peng Daoshi said hurriedly. Almost begged.
Li Qiye smiled and said, "Well, I'll go to your Changshengyuan to have a look."
"Okay, okay, okay, let's go, let's go." Peng Daoshi was busy putting away his cloth, and wanted to go back immediately.
Li Qiye glanced at Taoist Peng and said with a smile: "Aren't you continuing to recruit disciples?"
"Cough, cough, cough..." Peng Daoshi gave a dry cough, with a somewhat awkward expression, but he immediately recovered, with a calm expression on his face, and said with a very accent: "The matter of accepting disciples is about fate. If you don’t have fate, don’t try to force it. After all, this is the good fortune of heaven and earth. If you don’t have fate, there will be no cause and effect. You have fate with me. Therefore, it is enough to recruit one, and you do not need to recruit more..."
Speaking of it, Peng Daoshi shook his head and said a lot of words, which made Li Qiye laugh.
"Okay, let's go." Li Qiye couldn't help but said with a smile, and didn't point to Peng Daoshi.
Peng Daoshi immediately led the way for Li Qiye. What’s better is that Peng Daoshi walked three steps and turned his head, watching Li Qiye closely, as if he was afraid of Li Qiye’s sudden escape. After all, it was not easy for him to recruit an apprentice. After all, there is a person who is willing to come to their Changshengyuan, how can he let it go
In Peng Daoshi's view, he didn't want the Changshengyuan to be broken in his own hands. If the Changshengyuan was broken in his own hands, then he would be a guilty person.
"Okay, don't have to look, I won't run away." Seeing Peng Daoshi looking back three steps, Li Qiye couldn't help laughing and shook his head.
Peng Daoshi couldn't help but laughed, even though he was so excited.
Peng Daoshi’s Changshengyuan was in this holy city. After winding around several long streets, he finally arrived at the Changshengyuan that Peng Daoshi said.
The Changshengyuan is not so much a sect, it is more of a small courtyard.
Moreover, there are no residential buildings around this small yard, and it is a little lonely. I don’t know how long such a small yard has not been cleaned up. There are a lot of weeds growing around the yard.
The Zamen in the yard was also in disrepair for a long time, creaking in the wind.
Entering the yard, there is a small pool, and there is nothing in the pool. Maybe something has been raised before, but now it is gone.
"Is this the ocean view villa you are talking about?" Li Qiye glanced at the small pool in front of the yard and couldn't help but said faintly.
"Heh, heh, heh, our Guchi Island is surrounded by the sea. This can be regarded as a sea view villa. If you take a few steps, you can see the sea. What's more, this yard is not small, right? There are at least seven There are eight wing rooms. You can live wherever you want. It is comfortable and at ease.” Peng Daoshi laughed dryly, scratched his head, then pointed to the wing rooms on the left and right, and said to Li Qiye.
"Understood." Li Qiye nodded, smiled faintly, and said: "It's only our father. No wonder I can become the chief disciple and inherit the Taoism of the Changshengyuan. It is not easy, not easy."
In the entire Changshengyuan, there are only Li Qiye and Peng Daoshi. To be precise, Li Qiye is not yet a disciple of the Changshengyuan. Therefore, in the entire Changshengyuan, there is only Peng Daoshi. Moreover, the entire Changshengyuan is a sect. When I get up, there is only such a small yard.
Imagine such a school. It’s weird to be able to recruit disciples. Except for the homeless tramp, I’m afraid no one wants to. However, Guchi Island is surrounded by the sea. Where can there be any tramp? .
"You can't say that." Peng Daoshi said hurriedly: "Our Changshengyuan still has some capital. If you become a disciple of our Changshengyuan, I will pass on the treasure of our Changshengyuan town from now on to you." He patted a long sword on his waist.
There is a long sword hanging from Peng Daoshi’s waist, but this long sword is wrapped in gray cloth layer after layer. The gray cloth is already very dirty, it is about to be shiny, and I don’t know how much. Washed in years.
Such a long sword is not very attractive just by looking at it.
Li Qiye looked at Peng Daoshi's long sword at his waist, couldn't help but smile, and couldn't help feeling a little, and said, "It's such a sword."
"Don't underestimate our Changshengyuan." Peng Daoshi said hurriedly: "Although our sword is inconspicuous, it is indeed the treasure of our Changshengyuan."
Speaking of this, Peng Daoshi said: "Don't look at our Changshengyuan now in decline, but you must know that our Changshengyuan has a profound history and was once extremely glorious. You must know that our Changshengyuan was built there. The incomparable era is so long that it cannot be traced back. I heard from our ancestors that our longevity courtyard was once powerful in the world, and no one can match it. In that heyday, we not only had the longevity courtyard, but also what imperial courtyards and so on. The supreme branch..."
