Floating like a dream · Chasing the heart

As soon as Xuan Su heard it, he knew that the elder brother still remembered the past, so he was not embarrassed. He rubbed against the elder brother with a shy face, and was about to hold the elder brother's little hand, and said sourly: "It was not my wish before, if I could I'd rather be that snake monster's appetizer by myself, and I won't hurt you. It's because the snake monster is not authentic, and even thinks I'm not tender enough, so I want Xiaoying to change it for you by name. The snake monster is still It's not blind, but I know the benefits of Xiao Ying, but Xiao Xiao thinks it's right or not, what Xiao thinks is absolutely damn!" He stared at the cage in Zhan Ying's arms while he still couldn't understand his hatred.

His Highness is used to being wanton, and he really dares to say anything.Zhan Ying blushed, and quickly looked at the master who was standing aside. Fortunately, the old man was frowning with his hands behind his back and looking into the distance, thinking about some important life event, and he didn't pay attention to the obscene conversation here.Then he turned his head and gave Xuan Su a bitter look, thinking, that snake doesn't want to eat you, maybe it's because of your stinky body!

What's wrong with you that the great Weiyang Palace can't show you, you actually condescended and ran to my shabby small courtyard to make a show of your head!

"Just let me go with you. You see, if you faint again, I can take good care of you from the side. If there is any danger, I can stand up to protect you and never let you be tortured again." People used it to feed spirits."

These words really stabbed the big brother's heart, and he immediately recalled the time he was plotted by the treacherous Taoist priest.I don't know what's waiting for me on this trip to Canglang Mountain. If Lu Xuechen has another flash of inspiration and uses him as bait for fishing, I will really die unjustly.Last time, Xuansu was taken as a hostage because Yan Qing wanted to lure him. To be honest, in terms of appearance, body, freshness and tenderness, Xuansu has a lot of advantages over him. As long as he is not blind, he will The first to pick on this grandson.

Thinking of this, my mind became a little loose.Torn between saving his life and being clean, Zhan Ying chose to use his brother with a different surname as a shield.

So, they carefully packed a group of bags, and the master and apprentice accompanied the naked prince on the road.

Not to mention His Royal Highness, the old master is proficient in Yin-Yang studies, and is also good at Qimen Dunjia. He can be called half a Maoshan Taoist priest. He is well prepared for this trip. Red rope, dog blood, golden bell, and a hundred years Incense ash, peach wood sword to ward off evil spirits can be described as "full of five poisons".And Zhanying has personal experience, so it is much more practical.First, some people tore off a few clothes of exquisite fabrics and very strong, and put on the silk treasure clothes that could not be cut by knives, and hidden a fine steel dagger in the boots, and then packed a bag full of fur Thunder marbles.If this is to charge into battle among the swarms of snakes, rats, insects and ants, it will be considered a job.

Originally, Zhanying wanted to prepare some more sulfur and the like, but he thought that he would have to carry a dying snake with him, and if he smoked it, he would be powerless.

Along the way, Zhanying's meticulous care for the little snake made the eyes of brothers of different surnames red, and several times, when no one was paying attention, he would pour a pot of hot water into the cage to scald the charming little snake. Bald to remove a layer of goblin skin.Every time he was caught by the big brother, his face would not blush and his heart wouldn't beat, and he slipped his hands off smoothly.

Xu Shi lived in the crisis of being scalded all day long, and the sleeping little snake had a faint tendency to wake up. From the beginning, it was lifeless and motionless, and occasionally at night when it was covered under the warm quilt by Zhan Ying, it would lighten slightly. Lifting his head slowly, he leaned his cold and slippery body against his warm chest.

In the past, the two often slept side by side on a big kang. Although they lost their human form and became Zhan Ying's most unpleasant worm, but thinking that a good living person ended up in such a dismal end because of himself, Zhan Ying My heart can no longer be hardened.Not to mention biting the bullet and wrapping the slippery Snake Brothers into the bed, adding medicine or something, and feeding a small teacup of wrist blood regularly for three meals a day.

But no one can bear the wind, sleep in the open and put a few bowls of blood. When they reached the boundary of Canglang Mountain, Brother Zhan's little face was pale, and he was shaky when he walked, and could be blown away by a gust of wind.The hated third prince wished he could take off his belt and fasten his big brother's hands and feet to his waistband.

Kunlun Mountain, Yunmeng Temple.

People are like clouds, and life is like a dream.In fact, Yunmeng Temple was not originally called by this name, but it was completed after the ancestor Xuanjizi took charge of Kunlun. One day, Shi Xing made a lot of changes with a pen on the plaque.

At this time in Yunmeng Temple, the current head teacher Wangchen is sitting on the futon to recite and explain the essentials of Taoism to his disciples.After Lu Xuechen entered the main hall, he found a place by the door and sat quietly, closing his eyes and listening quietly.

About half an hour later, the disciples dispersed, and Lu Xuechen got up and bowed respectfully to Wang Chen, who was the first to sort out the scriptures.

"Master."

"Yeah." Wangchen nodded with a calm expression.

Twenty years ago, it was Wang Chen who picked up Lu Xuechen from the mountain and brought him back to the Taoist temple, where he raised him personally.Wang Chen's common surname was Lu, so Lu Xuechen followed his surname and named it "Yao".In addition to respecting this master who is also a teacher and a teacher, I am more grateful and kind.So there were no outsiders present, Lu Xuechen served the master with all his heart as if he were his biological father.

He poured a cup of tea and offered it with both hands, and heard the master ask him, "What did you gain from going down the mountain this time?"

Lu Xuechen took two steps back, sat down cross-legged on the futon beside him, and said with lowered eyes, "I have disappointed Master. This time I encountered a soul-eating snake demon when I went down the mountain. Although I subdued the monster, I didn't save those Devoured souls."

"Where is the monster?"

Lu Xuechen pursed his lips, "I never brought it back to the mountain..."

Wangchen didn't seem to be surprised, and asked quietly: "Other than that? But who else did you meet?"

Lu Xuechen was slightly taken aback, Master asked about cultivating immortals for many years, he can know the affairs of the world by pinching his fingers, it is not surprising that he can count his experience this time, he hesitated for a while and said: "It is true that I met a person who has a spiritual endowment. I am not afraid of evil spirits, but... this person is born with inadequacies, and his heart is flawed. This time, this disciple also wants to ask the master for advice, and there is a way to resolve this..."

Wang Chen asked, "What's that person's last name?"

Lu Xuechen said: "The surname is Zhan, and the single name is Ying. He was born on the day of Hai, Jimao, Yichou, in the year of Guiwei."

Wangchen closed his eyes and pondered for a while, "You want to save him?"

"Yes."

"Why?" Wangchen opened his eyes, his wise and clear eyes could not hide his scrutiny, "You should know what this fate is. We ask the cultivators to ask the way of heaven, and the fate of cultivation does not mean that it can be changed against the sky. Let’s not talk about whether it will be successful or not, but you should be very clear about the consequences even if you don’t say anything about it.”

Lu Xuechen bowed his head and remained silent.

"Master, I know that you have always had your own ideas, you have behaved well, and you are upright, but you are not stuck in one mind, and eight cows can't pull back the decision. If this is the case, why do you come to ask me?" What’s your opinion?” Wangchen took a sip of tea and said slowly, “I don’t seem to have told you why I named you ‘Yao’ back then. I want you to face it."

Lu Xuechen looked up, puzzled.

Wangchen sighed: "If my teacher told you that this person is the one you destined, what should you do?"

Lu Xuechen was startled suddenly, "The destined person?"

"If the teacher tells you again that you need to surrender your life to protect this person, what should you do?"

"Teacher..."

Wang Chen waved his hands wearily, "Go ahead, you are the one to decide how to choose, but remember, no matter what you choose, you alone will bear the consequences in the future."

"Yes... Disciple, remember."

Lu Xuechen arrived in the afternoon of the next day after the three of them settled down. The dust all over his body did not conceal his innate aura. He was still spotless and straight. When the snake was feeding blood to Zhanying, he understood what was going on with a little kick.

Lu Xuechen untied the sword, walked forward, and said in a low voice: "It's useless if you do this, it has already lost its inner alchemy, and no matter how much blood it drinks, it can't regain its human form."

Speaking of this, Zhan Ying became angry.The Taoist priest flushed Yan Qing's inner alchemy with water and poured it down for him as a big bowl of tea without even discussing it. Thinking about it now, my stomach twitches.This guy actually dared to throw trouble in front of him, gloating at his misfortune!

Seeing the prince and the master and the old man sitting side by side, Zhan Ying suddenly got angry, and glared at Lu Xuechen who came in angrily: "I drink too much ginseng and chicken soup, and I love it." What's the matter with bloodletting yourself for nothing! What's the matter? When I went back to the master's gate, I got some orders from the master to cut the grass and root out the weak and weak opponent!"

These words actually have no confidence at all, Zhan Ying knew that it was all thanks to Lu Xuechen's sudden kindness that Yan Qing's life was saved, and he was not kind to others at this time, it was really unkind, and he couldn't help but get annoyed He, temporarily repented and carried the little snake back to the mountain to suffer, that would be such a pain in the ass to die.

Thinking of this, his cold face couldn't hold back anymore, he quickly and vigilantly picked up the little snake that was still smeared with blood at the corner of his mouth and stuffed it into his arms.

Lu Xuechen was obviously upset by being poked, so he said in a cold voice, "Young master is knowledgeable and talented. He has read all kinds of books. Haven't you heard the story of the farmer and the snake?"

Is this mocking him as the heartless farmer who was bitten by a poisonous snake after his enthusiasm?Zhan Yingsai's hand in his arms couldn't help a pause, and then he stuffed it even more forcefully, and shouted, "I, I'm happy! You can control me!"

Lu Xuechen glanced at the beads of sweat oozing from Zhanying's forehead, and said clearly, "Isn't your son hot?"

Although it is already autumn, the room with the doors and windows closed is inevitably a little stuffy and hot.Zhan Ying was not afraid of snake bites with his silk silk clothes, but he was covered in two layers of clothes, and he realized that he was sweating, which neutralized his pale face due to excessive blood loss.

At this time, there was an unnatural flush on the snow-white cheeks, coupled with the little expression of embarrassment that had been pierced, the eyes of the prince on the side were straightened.Jumping up like a cat scratching in his heart, he pulled up Qian Kun, who was drinking tea leisurely, and Lu Xuechen, who was standing by the table, and pushed them away, "It's getting late, since Daoist Lu is here, let's go to rest and go up the mountain tomorrow morning!"

Ever since never Yanggong revealed his feelings, Zhan Yingfang has been guarding against him like a wolf, that is watertight, and he will never let him get close to him during the journey except gathering in a group for dinner, and finally arrives at the inn. The humble inn just happened to have only two rooms left, His Highness thought, the opportunity has come!
