Too Reckless

The wind blows the sea of ​​flowers, and the mellow aroma of wine spreads to all parts of the peach forest with the night wind.

The tree canopy covered the sky and the sun, and the beauty in the spring shirt with her hand hooked on the wine jar was lying on her side on the rattan couch, her cheeks flushed, and she was so drunk that she was unconscious.

call

The breeze blew folds on the cold pool, and a golden-dressed woman appeared silently under the peach blossom tree.

The woman first observed the breath of the beauty in the spring shirt, and after confirming that she was not disturbed, her eyes moved to a peach hanging on the top of the tree canopy.

The Taohuatan ancestral tree was planted by a master before the Battle of Stealing Pills, and it has a relationship with the God of Mengzhang. It can be said that each petal is a treasure of heaven and earth, and its branches can be directly used as an ancestral tree; the ancestral tree The peaches and peach pits are so precious that one can imagine how precious the peach blossoms are. Venerable Peach Blossoms drink big wine here all day long, in order to take good care of his most precious belongings.

The ancestral tree is an extraordinary tree, and its flowering and fruiting cannot be inferred from common sense. If it can bear a fruit in ten years, it is due to the good feng shui of Peach Blossom Lake. In bad luck, it is not uncommon for the whole big peach tree to not bear fruit for hundreds of years. On the top, there are only four fruits hanging on it.

The peach that Shangguan Yutang looked at was the one that Zuo Lingquan saw. It was bigger than the other peach. The peel was green and green, and it was very eye-catching among the peach blossoms. This change happened not long ago.

Shangguan Yutang knew that this was a great opportunity given to Zuo Lingquan by Mengzhang God. It was easy to increase his lifespan by one bite, and it would be no problem to grow another ancestral tree from the peach core. Probably the best natal seed the world can find.

But what makes Shangguan Yutang a headache is that the heavens and the gods only think in the way of people, and give the opportunity to grow directly on the tree, and let Zuo Lingquan take it by himself.

The ancestral tree is the ancestral property of Taohuatan. Under the eyelids of the Taohua Zunzhu, it bears such a big peach. What does Zuo Lingquan use to get it?

This is like a divine sword that fell from heaven and landed at Shangguan Yutang's house. A young boy he knew came knocking on the door, saying that the sword belonged to him, and returned it to him. Why should Shangguan Yutang give it?

It is a customary rule of practice, that the things created by heaven are first come, first served, and this "creature of heaven" includes things that are only conceived by the gods and the earth.

Even if it is an opportunity given to you by God, if you can't grasp it, it is not yours, and you can still expect the person who gets there first to give it back to you with kindness? If you don't kill you, people are good-hearted and moral.

Even if someone is kind-hearted and really gives you the chance to pick peaches from their orchard, the price of this person cannot be afforded by ordinary people.

Especially Shangguan Yutang, she did not have a good relationship with Taohua Zunzhu and Zuo Lingquan. If someone seized this bargaining chip, she would be sorry if she didn't open her mouth. Shangguan Yutang guessed that the old witch, even when The fourth elder of the nine sects, dare to mention if there are two men and two women.

Naturally, Shangguan Yutang would not agree to this request, and it would be impossible to hand over this opportunity.

The nine sects made a covenant first, and if they dared to grab something from the ancestral tree in Taohuatan Ming, the covenant would be destroyed. At this time, Shangguan Yutang could only take the next step to steal the peaches.

The opportunity originally belonged to Zuo Lingquan. As long as Venerable Peach Blossom didn't find it, it meant that she couldn't hold it. It made sense in theory. At that time, the two sides would argue and pay some money.

After observing for a while, Shangguan Yutang lightly hooked his fingers, wanting to pluck the peaches silently.

It's just that Venerable Peach Blossom looks drunk, and his vigilance is no less than half, especially when he catches Shangguan Yutang's pain point.

As soon as Shangguan Yutang made a move, Venerable Peach Blossom, who was lying on his side, reacted. He quickly raised his head, looked in the direction of Shangguan Yutang, and said drunkenly:

"Shang... Shangguan Yutang, what do you want to do?... Monkeys steal peaches?"

Shangguan Yutang found it difficult to carry out this move, and had already put aside her thoughts; she turned around and walked to the side of the rattan couch, and said plainly:

"Old witch, you are also an elder of the nine sects, don't you feel ashamed to grab the heaven-sent blessing from the younger generation?"

Venerable Peach Blossom propped up his face with the back of his hands, and said lazily:

"Look at what you said, do you think I'm your fault? I didn't say no to him."

Shangguan Yutang stretched out his hand.

Venerable Peach Blossom 'cut': "Why should I give it to you? The Peach Blossom Lake is mine, the tree is mine, and the peaches that grow on the tree are naturally mine. Let you take it away, in case you want to take it alone, who can rule you from the Nine Sects? I can't trust you."

Shangguan Yutang squinted his eyes slightly: "Is it interesting to make things difficult for a junior?"

"When did I make things difficult for him? I just asked him to come and get it. Could it be that I let the deity come and give it for free?"

Shangguan Yutang's eyes were displeased: "Old witch, don't think I don't know what your heart is."

Venerable Peach Blossom swayed and stood up, leaning on the rattan couch:

"What kind of bad thoughts can I have? The ancestral tree is in my hands. I give him such a great opportunity. It's not too much to let him enter my Peach Blossom Pond? People are yours, and peach has to be given to him. I will let you do anything good. Occupy, what am I drawing?"

"Don't dream, he can't be your apprentice, you can't teach anything at all."

"Who said you want him to be an apprentice? There are many positions in the sect, as long as it is my Taohuatan person; I can make him an elder, a head, a guest minister, or a disciple's Taoist companion, but I really can't be me. The Taoist companion can also, anyway, I find him pleasing to the eye, can you manage it?"

"you……"

Shangguan Yutang has always had a grumpy temper. If it wasn't for the sake of the Nine Sects Alliance, she would have hung up and beat this shameless old witch, and she said coldly:

"The eight dignified masters can actually say the words of being a junior Taoist companion. You want to make Taohuatan lose face... um..."

When the righteous Ling Ran reprimanded, an inexplicable humming sound suddenly interrupted the words.

Shangguan Yutang's eyes changed suddenly, she finally stopped for half a year, but she didn't expect that the two of them started again just after her forefoot left, and it was still at this time; Color, turned his eyes to the sky, and said sternly:

"He Fang master is making trouble again?"

It's a pity that no matter how fast Shangguan Yutang reacts, there are times when the car rolls over.

Peach Blossom Zun's master can't beat Shangguan Yutang, but he is also the eight masters, and he is also a peak powerhouse who can break his wrists.

Hearing the humming sound, the alcoholism between the brows of Venerable Peach Blossom instantly vanished and turned into 'My God! ’ with a shocked expression, looked at the woman in the golden dress who was close at hand, and looked up and down:

"Yutang, what are you talking about? You are humming in front of me. Is there a man hidden under your skirt?"

Rao is Shangguan Yutang's shrewdness and mentality, and she was also made to kill and kill by the sudden dilemma. In order to maintain the image she has been erecting for many years, her expression has not changed at all. Her eyes staring at the sky, she seems to be looking at a very beautiful statue. Terrible Demon:

"Don't fool around, there's something spying in the sky."

"Don't be fooling around, the ancestral tree is protected by the **** Monarch Meng Zhang, silently spying on those who are covered by the tree canopy, and even doing tricks to you, I didn't notice at all, who in the world has such great ability? Are you bored and let you have **** in front of me?"

Venerable Peach Blossom didn't even lift his head, and leaned over to lift Shangguan Yutang's skirt, trying to see if there was something with spicy eyes hidden under the skirt, but there was nothing under the skirt except for the two long legs.

Shangguan Yutang's face sank, he pressed down the hem of his skirt, and said solemnly:

"The world is huge and full of wonders. Don't underestimate the monsters in the world; the other party may be attracted by Xiantao and deliberately distract you and me. You stay here and don't move around, I'll take a look."

Saying that, his figure flashed into the sea of ​​​​clouds, murderous.

Seeing that Shangguan Yutang was so cautious, the Master Taohua became suspicious. The main reason was that Shangguan Yutang had always been more masculine than men, and he was isolated from the affairs of men and women. The Master Taohua suspected that she liked women, and suddenly snorted coquettishly, too abnormal, it was bound to happen. Something is disturbing the mind.

Thinking of this, Venerable Peach Blossom also became serious, looked up at the peaches on the tree, and sensed every grass and tree in the surrounding world...—

"Xun'er, why don't you take off your clothes?"

"Auntie, you really smell like a fox with your tail on..."

"Oh, stop talking, you bully me no matter what, I promise everything, and still hold me back..."

The night was silent, and the boat was moored in the small lake, undulating gently with the breeze.

The lights were out, but the people in the boat apparently couldn't sleep.

Behind the window, Shangguan Lingye was leaning alone on the soft carved couch, holding a scroll in his hand. He seemed to be reading poetry and books by the moonlight night, but his ears moved from time to time, listening to the inaudible movement outside the window. A white cat who was coquettish beside him ignored it.

"Jingxu...you're making me angry if you laugh at me..."

"Okay, I'm not smiling, don't cover your face..."

"Don't just look at it..."

"I'll just take a look..."

...

The words are very unbearable, even if the voice is suppressed with extreme care, Shangguan Lingye's hearing can still be heard clearly.

Today's young people are really playing, and their hearts are not ancient...

Shangguan Lingye sighed secretly, and unconsciously remembered the "forced kiss" at sea just now, his eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Maybe it was because he felt that eavesdropping on the wall was not in line with the style of a strong man. Shangguan Lingye turned over and read a book with his back to the window, but his ears were not very obedient. It made her face a little hot.

I thought that the fight between a few people would end in a while, but the movement in the attic was endless.

There is a magic circle on the painting boat to isolate the noise. Shangguan Lingye wanted to open it, but finally gave up Tired of crooked.

I don't know if God felt Shangguan Lingye's emptiness and loneliness. Just as she tossed and turned, she suddenly felt a pair of prying eyes looking at her not far away.

!

Shangguan Lingye's thoughts instantly returned to her senses, and before she turned her head to check, her body froze, because out of the corner of her eye she saw a golden dragon-scale skirt that was the master's skirt.

Shangguan Yutang stood in the painting boat like a ghost in golden clothes, with no expression on his cheeks, he cut off the 'noise' outside, and said plainly:

"Ling Ye, what are you doing?"

Shangguan Lingye looked stiff, but he regained his calm immediately, stood up and nodded:

"Master, you came back from Fulong Mountain so soon? My soul was injured, and I was just training. I didn't notice it for a while, and I ask Master to forgive me."

Shangguan Yutang suppressed the emotional fluctuations deep in her soul, her face was expressionless and she looked serious. She walked to the soft couch and sat down, threw the white cat to the desk, picked up the picture album next to it, opened it and glanced at it. ! !

Shangguan Lingye's respectful expression froze again, just like the well-behaved daughter of Xiao Huangshu who was discovered by her mother. I don't know where the courage came from.

"Master, this..."

It's a pity that the above-mentioned official Lingye is very sloppy. If he can grab something from the old ancestor, the old ancestor is not worthy of being the old ancestor.

Just as Shangguan Lingye raised his hand, he found that his body was frozen in place uncontrollably, and only his eyes were able to move.

Shangguan Yutang took the picture album, opened a page, frowned slightly, and his expression was exactly the same as that of the elder who discovered that the apprentice and nephew did not learn well.

When Shangguan Lingye saw this scene, his heart was half cold, and he couldn't speak. He could only move his eyes away, not daring to look at the expression of his ancestors. If he could move, he would have started to admit his mistake.

The room was eerily silent.

After a while...

"Ling Ye, the world is divided into yin and yang, people are divided into men and women, and the union of men and women is the way of heaven, and my monks need not avoid it. But these secular world paintings that are not on the table can only pass the time and have no merit; you really want to study the way of dual cultivation. , you can go to the Iron Clan Mansion and ask for a few copies of the double cultivation method."

Shangguan Lingye almost choked to death, feeling that her image in Master's heart had completely collapsed. She suppressed her embarrassment and found that she could speak, and quickly said:

"Disciple knows what's wrong, um... I didn't want to study the way of double cultivation, that is... I went to Sixiang Villa a few days ago and happened to come across this book. I was afraid that Zuo Lingquan would go astray and put it away... I took it out and looked at it today to criticize those secular literati..."

What does the ancestor of Shangguan do? With thousands of years of experience, she has seen more rice than most people have eaten. She didn't understand Ling Ye's predicament.

"You don't have to admit your mistakes. People's emotions and desires are unavoidable. Forcibly suppressing them will only backfire. You're doing fine right now. But you must also grasp the 'measure' in it, sink into it and succumb to desires, and you will also be infatuated."

"Disciples follow the instructions carefully."

Shangguan Lingye nodded like a group.

After Shangguan Yutang finished teaching his disciples, he threw the books aside and ordered:

"Go and call Zuo Lingquan, I have something to tell him."

"Um?"

Calling Zuo Lingquan at this time is probably not appropriate...

Shangguan Lingye was not very good, so he called someone in the past, his heart turned slightly, and he said softly:

"Zuo Lingquan is in the attic outside, Master can just go there, why greet him."

Shangguan Yutang just wanted Tang Jingshen to stop messing with her, and didn't want others to know that she could 'empathize with her', so he asked Lingye to fight the mandarin ducks.

Seeing Lingye kick the ball back, Shangguan Yutang said flatly:

"What kind of virtue and ability does he need, and needs the deity to come to see him in person?"

Shangguan Lingye thought about it carefully, it is true, there is no reason for the ancestor to run to see Zuo Lingquan.

However, Zuo Lingquan was almost lost overseas, and it was not easy to come back to reunite with his family, so calling someone away at this time would inevitably be a bit inhumane. Shangguan Lingye hesitated, then said:

"Zuo Lingquan and Jiang Yi have been separated for many days. It's not easy to get together. If the matter is not urgent, why not let him come over to visit Master tomorrow morning?"

Shangguan Yutang is in a hurry now.

She felt like she was being touched now, and she didn't even imagine how she would react in the morning if the two of them collided with each other.

But Ling Ye's words also make sense. Always interrupting, over time will only have the opposite effect.

Speaking of this, it is inevitable that Ling Ye will see the difference if you force others. Shangguan Yutang considers it for a moment, and then opens his mouth and says:

"Ling Ye, come and sit down, I'll treat you."

"Oh."

Shangguan Lingye naturally had no doubts about this, and sat down beside the soft couch. As a result, the master raised his hand and lightly touched her eyebrows, and she lost consciousness and fell into a dream.

Shangguan Yutang breathed a sigh of relief, a strange blush appeared on his face, and quickly suppressed it. She tilted her head and glanced in the direction of the attic, only to see that she was out of sight, and began to conscientiously recuperate Shangguan Lingye's soul...—

Before the plum blossoms and hundreds of flowers, spring is the only one in the world.

It is almost May, from spring to summer, the season of snow like plum blossoms has already passed; but the flowers and trees on the mountain, like the people on the mountain, often forget the time. cold place.

In the extreme north of Jiuzhou, thousands of miles of frost froze the earth. As far as the eye could see, except for the flying snow and frozen soil, there was not a single living thing in sight. This was a place where even lonely ghosts would not come.

But at the end of the permafrost, there is a snow-capped mountain towering into the clouds. On the top of the mountain is a magnificent building. The architectural style is so ancient that it has long been lost. On the wall of the tall building on the mountain, from a distance, it looks like an ancient ruin of an ancient sect that was abandoned in the ends of the earth.

Hou Yushu, the God of Four Signs, sat on the back of a giant bird with a pale face, looking at the ancient sect that seemed to be at the end of the world.

Familiarity is because although the buildings on the mountain are ancient, the layout is very similar to that of the contemporary nine sects, especially the 'Zongmen emblem', the format is exactly the same as the emblem of the contemporary nine sects, and the pattern is different.

The layout of the sects is influenced by the historical inheritance of the major immortals. For example, the first-generation ancestors liked to live in the back mountain, and the back mountain was the most honorable place; a certain ancestor of ZTE erected a stone tablet to alert the younger generation, and the descendants of later generations will inherit the sect for sure. I will not forget, this has led to the different layouts of the major immortal sects in the world, and there are almost no duplicates.

The layout of the sects of the nine southern sects is generally similar, because the inheritances are all of the same origin, and they are all built with the help of Fulongshan; ', follow a cat and draw a tiger to imitate the layout of other people's sects.

Hou Yushu can confirm that the sect on the snow mountain has a great relationship with the nine sects, but he has never heard of the immortal family with the Yin-Yang fish as the emblem; the only explanation is that this ancient sect is stealing pills. It existed before the World Destruction War, and it has a relationship with the current nine sects, and finally moved to this end of the world for some unknown reason.

The giant bird was more than ten feet long, and there was an old man on its back who led the way. The old man seemed to sense Hou Yushu's doubts and said:

"Scholar, do you know what kind of flower blooms earlier than peach blossom?"

"Chunlan?"

"Earlier."

"Lamei?"

The old man may have not chatted with people for too long, and he is more talkative. Hearing this, he laughed:

"That's right. It's a pity, now the younger generation of Yuyaozhou, because of a peach blossom lake, all value peach blossoms, and few people value plum blossoms. According to the old man, in Yuyaozhou back then, because a person surnamed Mei, and he liked it. Plum blossom, plum blossom ranks first among the hundred flowers in Yuyaozhou. People on the mountain like to follow the trend and plant a few trees around the cave. When Shangguan Yutang first traveled to Yuyaozhou, he made a small hill to be the cave because he was not on the mountain. Planting plum blossoms, the monks who came to find fault were joked that they were 'foreign bumpkin'..."

These stories cannot be heard in today's Nine Sects.

Although Hou Yushu abandoned the open and cast his shadow to join the Youying alien race, the concept that took root in his heart since childhood still prevented him from directly calling Venerable Linyuan's name, and asked curiously:

"Ancestor Shangguan has encountered such a thing? What was the result?"

"What else? Shangguan Yutang's outburst of temper, no one in Jiuzhou knows that those few monks who have no eyes are beaten to the ground begging for mercy; I was disturbed and came, but I still knelt down and staged a show of 'Four Generations in One Family'. The Nangong family, who belonged to the line of the precept elders of the Iron Clan Palace, was inherited from that unfortunate sect, so it is a blessing in disguise."

Hou Yushu was dumbfounded for a while and sighed:

"These allusions were indeed unheard of before. I didn't expect that the ancestors of Shangguan would be cultivated and left sideways at that time, which made people have to obey."

"At that time, there were many high-ranking people, and Shangguan Yutang was amazing~www.wuxiahere.com~, but it was not yet to the point of walking sideways, otherwise there would not be disputes with people because of robbing mountains; disputes were caused by plum blossoms, and in the end the A senior who likes plum blossoms is also attracted, and he admires Shangguan Yutang very much.

Hou Yushu traveled to nine sects when he was young, and went everywhere. Hearing the words, he recalled for a moment and wondered:

"If there is such a thing, the plum blossoms will not be removed, but I have been to Yinheng Mountain before, and there seems to be no plum blossoms on the mountain. Is there an allusion?"

The old man raised his eyes and gestured to the snow mountain in front of him:

"It doesn't have any allusions. You really want to know. When you see Old Ancestor Mei later, you can just ask yourself."

"...??"

Hou Yushu was incredulous and looked at the snow-capped mountains not far away:

"That old ancestor is still alive?"

"Stealing the pill almost wiped out Yuyao Continent. With such a big movement, cultivators from all nine continents came to help, and now there are more than three elders of the nine sects alive; Jiang Chengjian of Sword Imperial City, the ancestors of the great immortal families in other continents, and even The old seniors above us have all contributed in those years, and the difference is between more and less."

"Since Ancestor Mei has experienced the battle of stealing pills and is a local monk in Yuyao Continent, why would he still devote himself to it..."

What Hou Yushu wanted to say was obviously 'Why do you still join the evil spirits', but he has already run over, so it's hard to say those words.

The old man understood what Hou Yushu meant and turned around and said:

"Do you think you are a demon heresy?"

"I'm not, I never kill innocent people indiscriminately, I just want to seek justice for my deceased wife; I don't think Fu Longshan is at fault, but there is a blood feud, and it can't be written off just because it's right."

"That's fine. I kill people like numbness, but my crime is in the present and the merit is in the future, so what if it's an evil way?"

...
