In Yu Qishu's memory, this person once passed by Changchun Peak in the middle of the night. He and Xiaohuai regarded each other's flying instruments as meteors, and made a wish on their knees, which was a bit embarrassing. When the other party's flying instrument was gone, he asked Meng Xueli who this senior was. Meng Xueli's answer is impressive: a sick senior.
So at this moment, Yu Qishu smiled sincerely and asked with a little embarrassment, are you feeling better
The man in red's expression changed slightly, staring at him deeply.
Yu Qishu didn't know where she was wrong, so she looked back without dodging, her eyes were clear: "Senior, it's so late, where are you going? Do you need help?"
Although the other party has a high level of cultivation, but after all, "sick", maybe it is really inconvenient.
Hu Si said: "I will go to Hengtong Juyuan to find Qian Yuzhi."
Yu Qishu smiled and said, "What a coincidence, so do I. Seniors follow me, I know the shortcut."
The red clouds were leisurely, as if they were admiring the moonlight. They drifted very slowly, so Yu Qishu had to walk slowly.
Hu Si asked: "When did you break through?"
"The day before yesterday, uh, maybe the day before yesterday, I don't remember much."
"What are you talking about outside, you know?"
Yu Qishu scratched his head: "I don't know." He was very busy on Changchun Peak, and when he saw Qian Yuzhi occasionally, he also quietly went down the mountain at night, so he didn't have time to listen to gossip on the streets.
In the secret realm of Hanhai, a group of young monks received guidance from Changchun Peak’s masters and apprentices. After returning to their respective sects, most of them chose to retreat and sort out their insights. Recently, they have been out of customs one after another, and their realm has advanced greatly. For a time, many young geniuses emerged in the cultivation world, more prosperous than many glorious eras in history.
However, some people have disputes, and "comparisons" are always inevitable. Yu Qishu became famous because of the Hanshan Jingsi Valley, and naturally he was also compared.
Hu Si listed a few names and briefly described their teachings and Taoism. Yu Qishu was inexplicable.
Hu Si asked: "These are monks about your age, the hope for the future of the cultivation world. How do you think you are better than them?"
Yu Qishu felt even more embarrassed: "It should be better than me. I just have better luck."
Hu Si sighed. He hadn't had the experience of "holding his breath" for a long time, and sneered: "Everyone is better than you, do you think you are worthy of being a disciple of Changchun Peak?"
The implication is, are you worthy of being Ji Xiao's junior brother and my junior brother
Yu Qishu thought for a while, and said calmly: "I am. There is nothing worthy or unworthy. Unless the master drives me out."
Hu Si was a little stunned. Yu Qishu is pregnant with Jiaodan, and with his eyesight and qi observation skills, he can know the truth at a glance: this young man has many opportunities and has been favored by too many fates.
This kind of young genius, since he stepped into the road, has better luck than others. He should be high-spirited.
But Yu Qishu had nothing. He didn't have the intimidating momentum of Jianxiu's "a sword is out, whoever will fight for the front", and he didn't even have the sharpness of Wuxiu.
It seems that a piece of rough jade has not been polished, and it is naturally smooth and quiet, which coincides with the way of "going with the flow". Unlike young people, it has the sincerity and enthusiasm of young people.
Hu Si felt a little uncomfortable. How could Ji Xiao teach such a junior brother? Not like Ji Xiao at all. Of course, it's not like the snow-capped ferret.
"If you say you're stupid, you're not stupid."
Yu Qishu: "I'm not stupid at all."
Walking through a narrow alley, I saw a figure standing at the inconspicuous back door of "Hengtong Juyuan". The man was dressed as a scholar and shook the folding fan gently. Under the moonlight, the shadow grew obliquely.
Qian Yuzhi: "I saw my left eyelid twitching just now, and I knew there were guests tonight. Come in."
The back door creaked open, revealing the quiet garden. Yu Qishu crossed the threshold, looked up at the clouds, and hesitated how to introduce this situation.
The cloud head floats across the courtyard wall, hovering like a no-man's land.
Yu Qishu was afraid that Qian Yuzhi would be annoyed by the rudeness of the other party, so she started a fight and explained, "He is still recovering from illness..."
Qian Yuzhi closed the folding fan, tapped Yu Qishu on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Boy Yu, don't be rude. This is your senior. You met him tonight because you were destined, and a little bit of it leaked out of his fingers. What, enough for you to eat for half a lifetime!"
Yu Qishu wondered in her heart, my master Meng Ge is the King of Snow Mountain. Could it be that this senior in red is also a big demon
Qian Yuzhi's profiteering nature is a nuisance, such words, on the surface, compliment Hu Si, but in fact want to help Yu Qishukeng with something: whether it is your nephew or junior brother, you are an elder, are you embarrassed not to give some magic weapons and medicine pills?
Hu Si hooked his lips and smiled: "What do you want, come."
As his voice fell, in front of Yu Qishu, phantoms of red lotus blossomed out of thin air, leading straight to the clouds.
Qian Yuzhi's head suddenly became big, and he remembered a rumor: over the secret realm of the vast sea, Meng Xueli boarded the realm master's cloud boat step by step... Hu Si's behavior was too frivolous, so he tried to stop Xiao Yu.
Yu Qishu looked down. He was serving flowers and plants, feeding fish and mice in Changchun Peak. The soles of his boots and the hem of his clothes were stained with mud, so he discussed, "I, I still won't go up. Otherwise, why don't you come down?"
He just said his words, and found that Qian Yuzhi looked surprised, as if he had said something incredible.
Qian Yuzhi thought hilariously, since Hu Si lifted a piece of lake water into the sky and became detached from the world, I am afraid no one has said these three words to him again—
you come down.
"You haven't touched the ground for many years, you are high above the ground, and the clouds come and go, aren't you tired? This is not a cold mountain, and it's not a violation of your oath when you come down to the ground, right?" Qian Yuzhi laughed.
If they were in Hanshan, they were brothers and sisters; in the human world, they were monks in the sage realm and monks in the Mahayana realm. Even Qian Yuzhi couldn't speak to Hu Si like that.
But at this moment, in Hengtong Juyuan, they are customers and merchants. Other labels and identities may be temporarily put away.
"That's right." Hu Si flicked his sleeves, scattered the clouds, and fluttered down.
Qian Yuzhi brewed tea, Yu Qishu moved a chair, and entertained the "senior teacher".
Under the garden tree, the three of them sat drinking tea. Hu Si turned the cup to see the brown color, used old tea for hospitality, and this year's new tea for himself. Qian Yuzhi was still so stingy.
Qian Yuzhi asked, "I came here late at night, what business do you want to do?"
"I'm here to sell."
Qian Yuzhi's eyes showed nostalgia: "What are you selling this time?" Hu Si hasn't sold anything for many years.
At first, it was in the humble city square, consignment and consignment of the magical instruments and medicinal pills that he had refined. Cultivation requires resources, and Hu Si and Ji Xiao's masters really don't have much money. Later, Hu Si Dao became successful. When he first established his own business, he was relatively tight, so he gave "Hengtong Juyuan" some magical tools and let Qian Yuzhi auction it.
Yu Qishu didn't know these old things, so she just sat honestly and continued tea for the two of them.
Hu Si: "I don't want to sell it to you now."
Qian Yuzhi: "Then how do you sell it?"
Hu Si turned to Yu Qishu: "Sell it to you."
He took out a scroll of yellowed manuscripts, motioned him to open it, and said, "This is the practice experience I have accumulated over the years. Miscellaneous studies seem to be numerous, but in fact they are messy and not chaotic. They can confirm each other. One learns everything, and in the future, it will be self-taught without a teacher.”
Yu Qishu took it in a daze: "Huh?"
He was attracted by the volume, flipped through the two pages, and muttered, "... This teacher is not good, there are too few female cultivators, and the only few, all of them have strong personalities. I haven't seen the gentle female cultivator for a long time, look. Both the junior and the junior feel good-natured."
Yu Qishu was stunned and almost dropped the scroll: "This?" What kind of cultivation experience is this
Hu Si lightly coughed: "Look back."
"It was the first time I opened the furnace to make alchemy. It was a lot of hard work, and I got a low-quality Qi-boosting pill. I exchanged it for money in Hanmen City, and I only got ten low-quality spirit stones. When I get rich in the future, I must marry a lot of wives." Yu Qishu closed the book, "Can I not buy it?"
"No. You can get a spiritual stone."
Yu Qishu held the book and handed it to Qian Yuzhi, signaling the latter to pay.
Qian Yuzhi was both shocked and suspicious, knowing that this was Yu Qishu's chance, and it was related to the continuation of the sage Taoism. He was here, suspected of coveting and robbing others, so he turned his head sideways in a gentleman's manner to avoid suspicion. dont see.
It's a pity that Yu Qishu didn't know the goods. Seeing that Qian Yuzhi was unwilling to pay, she thought that this was not a forced sale.
"I do not have."
Hu Sichang frowned, showing a slight anger: "You don't even want to give out a single spiritual stone?"
Yu Qishu said honestly: "It's not that I don't want to, it's that I really don't have it. I used to have some money, but now... "
He has lived in Changchun Peak for a long time, and he has nothing to spend extra money.
The time limit has not yet come, and the spirit stone cannot be taken out. Qian Yuzhi said before that when you need money, you can temporarily borrow it, but looking at the situation just now, with Qian Yu's inexorable quality as a profiteer, it is absolutely impossible to borrow money.
Yu Qishu thought for a while: "But I can exchange it for something else!"
Hu Si: "What do you have?"
"I'm here to deliver peach blossoms to Shopkeeper Qian."
Although it is midsummer, Changchun Peak is like spring all year round, and the peach blossoms are always in bloom. Yu Qishu touched the storage bag, picked the best one, and smiled, "I'll exchange this for you."
With empty sleeves and nothing, I will give you a budding peach blossom.
Meng Xueli planted a hypericum tree, which was picked by Yu Qishu and borrowed flowers to offer to Buddha. It really was "the predecessors planted the tree, and the later generations enjoyed the shade".
Qian Yuzhi has a bad heart. This kid is usually very alert, so why is he so stupid at critical moments. He put one hand on Yu Qishu's shoulder.
Hu Si had already taken the peach blossoms and stood up: "Okay. I'm leaving when things are done."
Qian Yuzhi retracted his hand and asked in surprise, "Did you see that door?"
Yu Qi looked at Hu Si blankly.
Hu Si smiled.
Yu Qishu couldn't tell what the expression was, it was a mixture of mockery and pity, indifference and fiery. He heard a vague answer, and although he didn't understand it, he still had a chill down his spine:
"This world has no door at all."
The red clouds condensed with the wind and flew to the southern sky.
Yu Qishu looked at the sky: "Which senior is this?"
"Your brother's brother, the master of the Tianhu Great Realm."
"Hi." Yu Qishu took a deep breath: "It's really him. Not like a saint."
Qian Yuzhi surrendered to Yu Qishu: "A peach blossom, in exchange for the master's lifelong learning. You are the person who can do the most business in this world, and I am willing to bow down."
"Are you sure?" Yu Qishu smiled bitterly while holding the book, "Selling medicine to get spiritual stones, get rich and marry a wife? The seniors may be amusing me."
The last time Hu Si took the cloud boat to Changchun Peak, he only looked at the situation, and thought he had something urgent, otherwise why would the flying instrument be as fast as a meteor. In Yu Qishu's eyes, he only said two words to Meng Xueli, waved his sleeves and left. Same as tonight.
Perhaps the sage travels thousands of miles, just like the mortals in the market are full of food, go shopping, and find acquaintances to visit. It's all entertainment. Come with joy, come back when you are done, anyway, come fast, go fast.
Qian Yuzhi said, "You are still young and don't understand this."
"Who said I don't understand. The 'gate' you are talking about, is it the door to the sky?"
Qian Yuzhi nodded and sighed slightly:
"I thought that he was eager to spread the Taoist lineage because he saw the door to the sky and was ready to soar. There is no 100% certainty about this kind of illusory thing. If he succeeds, he will be the first person to ascend in this world. If he fails, just..." He The conversation changed, "People live their whole lives, and they have to leave something behind."
The death of the body is the first time a monk has died. Taoism is lost, no one remembers, it was the second death of a monk.
Yu Qishu: "It's so serious?" He carefully put away the scroll, "What if I meet another senior next time, but I don't bring peach blossoms, how embarrassing. Would you lend me some spiritual stones first?"
Qian Yuzhi picked up the folding fan and banged on Yu Qishu, and said angrily: "This kind of opportunity, when someone encounters it once, the ancestral grave will smoke and ask God to worship the Buddha. Do you want to meet the second time? You really dare to think about it. ?! All the good things in the world fall on you alone?"
Yu Qishu hugged her head and ran away: "Borrow a little."
"No loan."
Yu Qi was anxious and wise, took out the mouse from her sleeve, and raised her eyes to Qian Yuzhi: "Just borrow ten yuan."
"...Five yuan." Qian Yuzhi closed the folding fan, took the money mouse with both hands, and weighed the weight, "What did you eat, you gained weight again."
"Five yuan is five yuan, bring it here."
