With the great prosperity of Wudang Mountain, many pilgrims rushed to Wudang to burn incense without hesitation. Gyeonggi and Jing'an Road are the most numerous pilgrims from other places. Many Taoist temples of different sizes in Wudang provide accommodation, so that even Xiaozhu, who "opened the mountain" not long ago Peak, that brand new Castle Peak View is also full of pilgrims. Zixu Temple and Xixiang Pond, the main peak of Wudang, persimmon forest and tortoise stele on Xiaolianhua Peak, and huge auspicious murals on Yuzhu Peak, these scenic spots are undoubtedly fascinating and unique, but the approachable approach of Wudang Taoist priests makes pilgrims feel like a spring breeze. He is as senior as Chen Yao and Yu Xingrui, and as honorable as the head teacher Li Yufu. He will always follow Lu Zu's rule of "I am a Taoist in the mountain, and I will release the sign every ten days", and explain the sign for free for mountaineering pilgrims, but Wudang Mountain is so prosperous. There is one person who deserves the most credit, that is Xu Fengnian, the king of Xinliang who once cultivated thatch on the mountain. The Xixiang Pond not far from the hut where he lived has now become a pilgrimage site for people in the world, and has attracted countless people to Wudang Mountain. The female pilgrims who came here for fame are true, burning incense is true, and it is also true that they yearn for that "Northern Xu". That young man is too legendary. Iron cavalry, as a martial artist, ranks among the four great masters of martial arts criticism, and it is said that he looks like a jade tree, and it is passed down by word of mouth. In this way, a very interesting scene appeared in Wudang Mountain. Unlike other temples and Taoist temples, there are more and more female pilgrims in Wudang, and most of them are accompanied by young women.
When Xu Fengnian and Li Yufu and Yu Fu parted in the twilight, the master and apprentice continued to climb the mountain to Wudang, and Xu Fengnian went to the hut, but unexpectedly got a closed door there. From a distance, there were faint lights in the house, waiting for him to approach Finally, the lights suddenly went out, and then they knocked on the door. Xu Fengnian was a little puzzled, but it was because she was embarrassed and shameless to live in the same room with him, which made Xu Fengnian dumbfounded. Living together is just nothing to do with sharing the same bed. He sleeps on the small bed, and she can only pitifully make the floor in the corner of the room. At that time, His Royal Highness will not be sympathetic, and I guess the little clay figurine will definitely not. I will accept his affection. If Xu Fengnian really suggested that he sleep on the floor, she probably would not sleep well. She would only think that His Royal Highness was uneasy and kind. It can be seen from this that the little clay figurine of the Qingliang Mountain maid at that time was really abused by the unscrupulous His Royal Highness. The bullying was terrible. Two slender wooden doors just blocked the young feudal lord who even the Qin Tianjian forced his way in. Xu Fengnian turned around and saw a small bamboo chair that she probably forgot to take back in the house. Xu Fengnian sat on the hand-woven chair that he used to ride a bull, with his hands in his sleeves, looking up at the bright starry sky where the Milky Way flows. The night is as cool as water, but it's a pity that there is no light fan to catch the fireflies.
Xu Fengnian sat alone for a while, really bored, so he took a look at the vegetable garden next to the hut under the starlight. Cucumber and loofah, with many small yellow flowers, are a little lower, those green peppers, and there are some round watermelons hidden in the greenery, Xu Fengnian counted about five or six, different sizes, I don’t know Is it because of his love for houses and birds? Xu Fengnian always thinks they are cute and cute, and he thought that when they grow up, they will be delicious if they are taken off and washed on ice in the elephant pool, but he may not want to eat them.
Xu Fengnian went back to the small bamboo chair and sat down, closed his eyes, but didn't think about anything.
With a creak, the door opened slightly, with only a gap. Jiang Ni secretly looked at the back, feeling a little uneasy. Since she climbed the mountain alone, she used to make a bed on the floor at first, and then mustered up the courage to spread the bamboo mat on the small bed. These days, it is quite pleasant to fall asleep. When she heard Xu Fengnian's familiar footsteps earlier, the first thing she did was Jumping out of bed with bare feet, closing the door, throwing the bamboo mat on the ground, lying on the mat and pretending to be asleep, covering ears to pretend to be dead, this series of actions was done in one go, very masterful. After waiting for a long time, when he got up to leave and returned to sit down, then there was no more to say, which made Jiang Ni start to panic. It was not because of uneasy conscience, but because she was afraid that the guy who likes to hold grudges the most would settle accounts after the autumn. After a battle between heaven and earth, he plucked up the courage to open the door, only to see that guy sitting quietly outside for the first time, without any intention of haggling with him.
Suddenly a crisp voice sounded, and Jiang Ni was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and instantly flew into a rage, both distressed and angry: "Xu Fengnian! You stole my things!"
Xu Fengnian, who was gnawing on a cucumber, turned his head, with a natural expression of beating, "What's yours and mine, what's yours is mine, how can you say it's stealing?"
Jiang Ni stretched out her hand with a straight face, and said decisively: "Give me the money!"
Xu Fengnian seemed to have expected this, "I don't have any money, I owe it first, tomorrow I will borrow some copper coins from Zhangjiao Li and the others, how much do you charge me for a cucumber? One penny or two?"
Jiang Ni hesitated for a moment, then said confidently: "Two articles!"
Xu Fengnian smiled softly, biting a cucumber, and said vaguely: "Don't you know how to ask for a price?"
Jiang Ni was stunned for a moment, and then she became angry from embarrassment: "Speaking of two words is two words!"
She quickly added, "But it can't be Yonghui Tongbao's bi-literal money, it must be Xiangfu Tongbao's bi-literal money!"
Xu Fengnian jokingly said: "Hey, you have gathered Hong Jia and Yonghui's big and small sixteen springs, and now you are planning to collect auspicious symbols to make money, little clay figurine, are you ambitious?"
Jiang Ni said angrily: "You care about me?!"
Xu Fengnian turned around and remained silent.
When Jiang Ni came to him, he warned Xu Fengnian like a thief: "The watermelon is still young, you can't steal it!"
Xu Fengnian hummed.
He didn't know why he thought of Qingliangshan Wutong Courtyard, the second-class maids had cucumbers, green ants, white wine, etc., and the first-class maids had sweet potatoes and blue birds. Some are still there, some are no longer.
Jiang Ni went back to the house and moved a small chair to sit a little away from him, watching him slowly eating cucumbers from the corner of her eyes, as if eating her copper coins, two pennies.
Xu Fengnian stopped talking, took half of a cucumber, and said softly, "Xie Xizhen and the others are fine, you don't have to worry about it. On Guangling Road, as I said before, the sporadic fights after the Xileibi battlefield are inevitably bloody. The end of the Yang court was generally warm and affectionate, and they were very kind to the civil servants. The Song family became the leader of the local officials in the new Guangling Dao. He was able to return to Beijing again. The new appointment was a proud student of Yu Jiankang, an elder of Jiangnan Dao. He was always close to the scholars of Guangling Dao. Talking together with several famous scholars from the south of the Yangtze River, and inviting more than 20 Mr. Jishang from the Shangyin Academy, it can be called a flourishing literary world that has never happened in ten years. Marrying a woman from a noble family in Guangling Dao, all signs prove that Tai'an City does not want Guangling Dao to cause trouble again."
Jiang Ni didn't speak.
Xu Fengnian turned his head and looked at that charming face, and said softly: "In this world, there are some things that often no one is indispensable. Your luck has always been good, and it is also in this 'often'. Inside."
Jiang Ni said indifferently: "Don't comfort me, I have never felt that Western Chu needs me so much."
Xu Fengnian smiled and said, "I'm relieved if you think so."
Jiang Ni asked suddenly: "Then what about Beiliang, does it mean that without you, it must be impossible?"
Xu Fengnian looked at her and said solemnly, "Of course I can't do it without me!"
Jiang Ni rolled her eyes.
Xu Fengnian smiled and started eating cucumbers again, "If Xu Xiao hadn't died, if my master Li Yishan was still here, if Chen Zhibao was willing to assist me as the king of Beiliang, if the imperial court didn't restrict matters in the northwest, if Murong Yelu in Beimang The two surnames are in conflict, if the Beiliang frontier army is not 300,000 but 500,000... It's a pity that there are not so many ifs in the world, so I will be very important."
Jiang Ni tilted her head, "Are you complaining to me?"
Xu Fengnian rolled his eyes at her, "I'm not bitter, obviously I'm showing off to you. Do you still remember when I told you that I was such a talented martial arts genius, as long as you give me two After three years of hard work, you can practice an invincible man who is lonely like a big avalanche. Back then, you looked at me like you were looking at an idiot, how is it now?"
Jiang Ni didn't refute anything in words, but showed a look of disdain that you stepped on shit and it was a big shit nest.
Xu Fengnian raised his hand high and threw away the small piece of cucumber buttocks, his face full of complacency, "I have taken in three apprentices, if there are martial arts critics in the world in the future, then Wang Shengyu, Dilong Lu Yunchang and the three of them will definitely be able to enter Among the top 20, Yu Dilong, that little bastard, is expected to be the number one."
Jiang Ni snorted, "Yu Dilong? That kid who was a scout in the Youzhou Cavalry Army?"
Xu Fengnian nodded.
I never thought that the power of Jiang Ni's words is no different from that of flying swords to take heads, "Even I heard the famous allusion about the one who came out of the wall when I was on Wudang Mountain. It is so powerful that it is the best in the world."
Xu Fengnian froze on the spot.
Then Jiang Ni heard the master who supported the wall chanting "cleaning the door" in bits and pieces.
Jiang Ni looked up at the Milky Way hanging in the sky, and followed Uncle Qi Daizhao to Guangling Road, and heard the people there call it "the Guangling River in the sky".
Xu Fengnian looked at the great river in the sky with her, and murmured: "I heard that there are 100,000 mountains in southern Xinjiang. I heard that the snow in Liaodong is worse than that in the northwest. I heard that there is a Butterfly Spring in Nanzhao, where countless colorful butterflies meet head to tail. , hanging from the tree to the water..."
Jiang Ni listened to his chanting, and said softly: "Will you visit all those places that remind you of you in the future?"
Xu Fengnian narrowed his eyes, "Of course I want to."
Jiang Ni looked away, "Tomorrow I want to go to Zixu Temple on the top of the mountain to burn incense."
Xu Fengnian wondered: "Pray for blessings and make a wish? Or ask for a signature?"
Jiang Ni said angrily: "You want to take care of it?"
Xu Fengnian laughed it off, "If I remember correctly, tomorrow there will be Wudang Master Chen Yao who will personally untie the lottery. No matter how late you sleep in and get up late, I will let the old man untie the lottery for you as soon as possible. Who told me that I am Wudang How dare they neglect the great pilgrims of Tianzihao in the mountains."
Jiang Ni was about to stab him a few words, but Xu Fengnian was the first to speak: "Deng Tai'a gave me twelve pocket flying swords back then, and the battles with Han Shengxuan, Wang Xianzhi, and Tuoba Bodhisattva destroyed a lot, and we've already gathered them together." It was not a set, so I asked the Mohist master in the back of Qingliang Mountain to remake a set of nine swords, which matched my several swords. The names of the nine flying swords were Fengdu, Yichen, and Silverfish. , Shuijing, Laojiao, Meiran, Zhiqu, Wild Fox and Suet, how about it, does it sound interesting?"
Ginger Ni said bluntly: "Sour, really sour!"
Xu Fengnian laughed loudly, restrained his smile, and reminded softly: "By the way, if you burn incense tomorrow, I have to tell you some trivial things first, so as to save you from being hit by headless flies. Please don't use too much incense, it's not like buying a piece of incense." A lot of incense is sincere, three sticks of incense are enough, and the copper money for offering incense must be paid by the person who made the wish, and cannot be borrowed. There is a difference between burning temple incense and altar incense in Wudang, especially the former pays attention to a "incense is not more than an inch, and it is too much". The latter is better with sandalwood. The real pilgrims all bring their own incense. It's not like you hugging Buddha's feet temporarily, oh no, hugging the feet of Emperor Zhenwu. It seems even more wrong to say that... When you enter a Taoist temple, men should be on the left and women should be on the right. Whether you are walking on the steps or crossing the threshold, do not walk in the middle. When making a wish, do not make any promises of future offerings. This is the same principle in Taoist temples and temples, whether it is a bodhisattva or a real fairy Well, it’s not bad for your stick of incense. Also, burning incense in Wudang is said to be the most effective way of praying for peace and prosperity. Remember not to make too big a wish. If the wish comes true in the future, don’t forget to pay it back... "
Listening to Xu Fengnian's tireless chatter, Jiang Ni was in a peaceful state of mind, and there was a little more warmth in his heart that made people feel warm.
It’s just that Xu Fengnian didn’t let Jiang Ni down, and the last sentence revealed his true fox tail, “The most important thing is that it is also possible to make a wish to have a baby early in Wudang Mountain!”
Ginger took a deep breath.
It reminds me of the "Moon Under the Great Geng's Corner Oath to Kill Post" back then.
At the end, Jiang Si swore to kill Xu Fengnian.
Xu Fengnian looked at the scene where her chest trembled slightly when she breathed, and said with a smile: "Little clay figurine, you really should treat each other with admiration after three days of farewell."
Jiang Ni sneered.
He is no longer just a little clay figurine who was always defeated when he quarreled and bickered in the past, but now he has a bit of the demeanor of His Majesty the Emperor of Western Chu.
On the second day, the sky was slightly bright, and the melodious morning bells of all the peaks of Wudang rang at the same time.
On the Zixu Guanwai Square of the Great Lotus Peak, the main peak of Wudang, stood hundreds of Wudang Taoist priests of all generations, not only that, but also hundreds of pilgrims who either stayed here last night or climbed the mountain in the dark. According to legend, that set of boxing is the boxing method that Hong Xixiang, the head teacher of the previous generation, dug out from ancient books.
There are three people leading the boxing, Wudang's current master Li Yufu, and his apprentice Xiaodaotong Yu Fu.
There is also Xu Fengnian, the king of Beiliang who wears a green shirt and a jade pendant.
The breeze is coming.
Naturally.
The mountain is full of mist, immortality, chivalry, and spirit.
Jiang Ni, who had vowed to go alone to burn incense, secretly stood at the back of the square, tiptoed to look at the slender figure, and listened to the shameless whispers of many female pilgrims. She laughed, and two dimples appeared on both sides of her cheeks.
After Xu Fengnian's boxing ended, Jiang Ni passed through the crowd in an upright manner. Under the eyes of everyone, especially the eyes of those women, she blushed slightly and held his hand.
He said last night that his martial arts practice started in Wudang Mountain, so his rivers and lakes should also end in Wudang Mountain.
In between, and even after, there is her.
