"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
The wind was strong and the snow outside the pavilion was still howling.
Not only did the wind and snow not stop, it was even a bit more violent than when they entered the pavilion, like a hungry tiger attacking, extremely ferocious.
Qian Yuexi's fingers holding the wine pot paused slightly, "Summer is about to begin, and this may be the last snowstorm before summer begins."
Zong Ci: "It's summer? Is this often the case on Tianshan Mountain?"
"Not often. There is more rain in spring, and the snow melts faster in summer." The Tianji Sect Master replied, "The weather in Tianshan Mountain is different from the usual snow mountain area or the ordinary world. It was calm a moment ago, but it may be stormy in a moment. Let’s have a snowstorm.”
"The weather in the snowy mountains is always like this, unpredictable."
The strong wind swept up the rain and snow, and beat it on the edge of the pavilion like crazy, making a pulling sound like a broken speaker, like a series of beating wild beasts, unable to get in. But this sound did not affect the people in the pavilion at all.
The pavilion was extremely quiet, and the burning agarwood on the table was still spreading leisurely. Milky white smoke hovered in the pavilion, exuding a fragrant fragrance, and it was like two different worlds from the outside.
As early as when the sky and the earth were hazy and dim, the boy from Tianjimen who was guarding the door had to be ordered to retreat. Before retreating, he pushed a small wooden cart in.
They had stayed at Tianjimen for countless years and had long known the signs of the coming storm. In other words, in the formation of Tianjimen, there is no need to worry at all.
When the blizzard really came, Zong Ci, who had never seen it before, was more curious. He quickly changed from lazily leaning on to straightening his back, eyes wide open, and looking intently outside the pavilion.
The heaven and earth of Cangshan Mountain that could be seen before have all melted into the wind and snow. Looking at it, the whole world is the same color, and it is difficult to distinguish the outline.
The waterfall that was still flowing just now was lifted up by the strong wind. From time to time, the sound of ice and snow breaking in the rock cracks could be heard from below. Suddenly it fell into the river, and was carried by the snow and rushed into the bottomless abyss.
An avalanche seemed to be brewing on the snowy peak not far away. Zong Ci witnessed with his own eyes that the snow on the mountain suddenly broke into pieces.
In the beginning, it may only be the force of a stone, but when it reaches the force of a chain on the hillside, an avalanche that can destroy the world will take shape. Thousands of snowflakes piled up and turned into white waves, whizzing down the hillside and rolling down to the foot of the mountain, causing countless avalanches that echoed around the snow-capped mountains.
This is a very shocking thing. Although a powerful monk can cut off Hongmeng with one sword, it is still less powerful than the naturally formed wonders of heaven and earth.
If Zong Ci's swordsmanship was still there, maybe he would be interested and fly to the heavy snow in the sky to have a fight with the world. But now they are sitting in a small pavilion not far away, with the wind blowing under their feet. They are watching like outsiders, but they also have a different taste.
"If you are lucky, it will be sunny after the snowstorm passes."
When Zong Ci was fascinated, Qian Yuexi's voice sounded from behind him.
The man silently put away the spiritual stone in his hand that was used for simple predictions, and said casually: "There are rarely sunny days on Tianshan Mountain. In the past, it was always snowy or gray. Such a big snowstorm, the sky should be It will clear up.”
"Then I'm somewhat looking forward to it."
The young man looked back and smiled, lowered his head to pick up the fairy wine in his hand and sipped lightly, raising his eyes slightly.
When a snowstorm comes, the whole world is dark. In the entire pavilion, only the agarwood lamp lit on the table was still emitting light.
The man was still sitting upright in the wheelchair. The white clothes on his body seemed to be more colorful than the heavy snow outside in the flickering light. In sharp contrast with the falling black hair, they looked like the white snow that would never be stained in this world.
As soon as Zong Ci looked up, he saw the small white braid at the end of Qian Yuexi's hair that would twist around according to the owner's movements. Thinking of the ghostly look on the child's face when he saw it just now, he couldn't suppress the corners of his mouth.
Zong Ci smiled secretly here, but when he turned around, he was caught by the Tianji Sect's leader.
The man with black hair and white clothes turned his head to look at him. Although his eyes were closed, he was accurately facing Zong Ci's position, which made the latter feel shocked.
Fortunately, Qian Yuexi didn't say anything. Instead, he raised his hand and pulled the cart over to the door.
After taking off the cover of the cart, Zongci discovered that inside was a plate of exquisitely arranged dim sum dishes. Each plate was extremely exquisite, and some of them had local ingredients and the flavor made of ice and snow, which made people’s mouths itch. Big move.
"You haven't eaten grain yet, but if you just drink the medicine, you will inevitably feel hungry in your belly." Qian Yuexi explained, "It coincides with the snow viewing, so I sent them to prepare it, and it doesn't suit A Ci's taste."
There is nothing wrong with this sentence, but the title is very problematic.
Zong Ci raised his head sharply and hit the frowning eyes of the Tianji Sect Master.
"You..." Zong Ci was about to speak, but he didn't expect the person in front of him to say again: "I was the one who was rude just now. I think there is nothing wrong with calling friends this way."
At the end, he thoughtfully added: "Of course, A Ci can also call me like this."
There is indeed nothing wrong with that.
Zong Ci thought about it and didn't spend too much time on this issue. "Men... Ah Xi is too worried."
After he finished speaking, he felt that this title did not sound worthy of the glorious Tianji Sect Master in front of him, so Zong Ci put the snack into his mouth and silently crossed out the nickname in his mind.
It would be better to call him by his first name from now on.
For the next time, Zong Ci ate quietly, while Qian Yuexi lowered his head to read the jade slip in his hand.
Monks rarely eat mortal food. Even monks who have not been incapacitated usually only take one inedible pill regularly every day. Even the last time Zong Ci ate, he probably had to think back to the time when he and his junior brother went down the mountain for training a thousand years ago, when the mood struck and they went to a restaurant to eat.
After many years, when he held chopsticks in his hand again, Zong Ci almost forgot how to use them. Without paying attention, the chopsticks were stained with sauce and stuck to the corner of his mouth, leaving a brown mark on his cheek, which looked like he was stealing. Eating a small civet cat that was found.
"Slow down, the wind and snow outside haven't stopped yet, don't be so anxious."
Before he had time to react, the man chuckled, put his slender hands up, and naturally wiped the sauce off the corners of his mouth with a brocade towel.
The young man blinked, glazed over by the sudden movement, or perhaps caught by the low laugh. When he looked back, he saw that the master of Tianji Sect had put away his brocade scarf and lowered his head again, seeming to be quietly reading the jade slips with his spiritual consciousness.
Zong Ci: "..."
He had no choice but to lower his head and continue to fight against the food on the plate.
The wind and snow are raging outside, but the years are quiet inside.
Inside the pavilion, it seemed like there were two worlds separated from the violent storm and snow outside.
One world is home to all living beings, and one world is home to just two people.
####
About two hours later, the blizzard finally stopped.
Just as Qian Yuexi said, after the snow stopped, the sun rose on the top of Tianshan Mountain for the first time in a long time.
After eating, Zongci leaned against the fence, feeling quite drowsy. He also got the approval of the doctor Qian Yuexi and was about to take a rest.
When the sun hit his face, Zong Ci suddenly felt no longer sleepy again when he took a closer look at the vast scenery below.
He jumped off the platform, turned back and tugged on the man's wide cuffs, "Let's go out and take a look."
"good."
Qian Yuexi was naturally obedient to him.
The master of Tianji Sect waved his hand, and the jade slip disappeared into the void. He was looking back when he saw the young man hurriedly putting on the shoes he had placed in front of the pavilion. He looked terrified that he might do something shocking again, and he couldn't help but laugh.
After leaving the warm booth, the temperature outside suddenly dropped.
Even if the sun shines on Tianshan Mountain, it will definitely be a cold sun.
The pale sunlight enveloped the young man's entire body, but it didn't seem to have any heat at all, making him feel chilled all over.
Qian Yuexi turned around and saw the young man gathering the corners of his cloak and burying himself in the fluffy snow fox fur. His lips were cold and bloodless.
"I'll take you to a place where it's not cold."
He pondered for a moment and then tore apart the space.
At this moment, Zong Ci seemed to smell the faint smell of blood on the man again.
But before he had time to think about it, the almost non-existent smell was blown away by the wind coming from the cracks in the space, mixed with the scent of flowers, and disappeared without a trace.
Opposite the crack is a colorful land with red flowers and green willows.
Zong Ci opened his eyes curiously, "Where is this?"
"This is the flower garden of Tianshan Mountain. My master settled here in his later years." Qian Yuexi said, "Actually, it is located at the intersection of several peaks of Tianshan Mountain. You are still ill, so I can't take you down to fly down. In fact, the space The location is not far away.”
It is indeed Tianshan.
Apart from this colorful land, looking up again, there are still snow-capped mountains on both sides.
In such an extremely cold environment, planting a flowerbed is a very laborious task. Not only does it require setting up an array, but also because the ice melts, the flowerbed needs to be maintained at regular intervals.
Who would have thought that in the eyes of everyone in the world of cultivation, the masters of the Tianji Sect, who are aloof and aloof from the world, would plant flowers in the Tianshan backyard when they have nothing to do
Zong Ci sighed with emotion, squatted down, and randomly picked up a flower in his hand, "Master, you are thoughtful."
"He is indeed a flower lover."
Qian Yuexi sat in the wheelchair, looking down at the young man's peaceful profile, hesitating for a moment, "Aci has left the sect now, what are his plans after..."
"Intend?"
Zong Ci was stunned for a moment, then wrapped his fingertips around the end of the flower and back to the surface, "My soul has not recovered, and even if I reshape my body, I will only be able to survive."
Although Qian Yuexi had guessed last time when he was under the Dragon Bone Abyss, the young man must have dragged his incomplete soul through the cold tomb in the past thousand years.
But when Zong Ci actually said it in a nonchalant tone, he still felt an uncontrollable pain in his heart.
"This body can only last three more years. After one year in Taiyan Sect and several months of lying in bed, I'm afraid it only has more than a year left."
When talking about his short time, Zong Ci was quite calm, "If possible, I would like to use mortal feet and eyes to measure the world again."
He spoke calmly, but the Tianji Sect Master's hand hanging aside tightened even more.
After a long time, Qian Yuexi whispered: "There will be a way."
"While A Ci was sleeping, Tianyi already had some ideas for treatment. Everything will be fine."
The young man squatting on the ground suddenly turned his head, his eyes clearly filled with unknown light.
He didn't ask what the clue was, but instead showed a sly smile, "According to your wishes...do you want to go with me?"
"Yes, I wonder if A Ci agrees?"
Qian Yuexi's eyebrows were gentle and he admitted very simply.
"Of course. It is of course an honor for me to travel with the famous Master of the Tianji Sect."
Zong Ci stood up with a smile. Before he could finish his words, he suddenly felt a dizzy feeling that was close to being turned upside down.
The young man swayed on the ground, and suddenly his vision went dark, and he fell straight forward.
He loosened his fingers weakly, and the beautiful flower in his hand fell to the ground, suddenly falling into the bottomless darkness.
