【Xie Li】Returning to Sleeping Dreams

In just over a month, the ship that carried Xie Yunliu out of the Central Plains returned to its hometown Chang'an again.

Huashan Mountain is majestic and precipitous, Chunyang Palace is as solemn as before, and the vast white snow, clouds and mist shroud it like a fairyland, and it is still the old scenery.

A disciple had already rushed up to report.In front of the Sanqing Hall, four figures stood.The leader is a person of immortal character, his face is like a cage in the mist, and he can't see clearly.The corner of the Taoist robe was blown by the wind.

Behind the three people dressed as disciples, one is tall and majestic, with an anticipation look on his face, very excited;

Behind Xie Yunliu is Li Wangsheng.The two came up very slowly, they didn't use lightness kung fu, they just walked slowly around the dangerous path.

The surrounding scenery has not changed much.Back then, we had seen the water lilies in the Feiyu pond, and when we were practicing Qinggong, we both fell off the cliff covered with thick snow.The more familiar you are, the more impatient you are; the more impatient you are, the more steady and heavy you walk.

Li Wangsheng was half a step behind Xie Yunliu, just like many years ago, never passing him, and never falling behind, as long as he turned his head, he could see it.

Xie Yunliu said before: "Wangsheng, hurry up, I'm walking very slowly, why can't you keep up with me?"

Li Wangsheng just smiled and said nothing.

Now that Xie Yunliu knew, Li Wangsheng had no delusions in his heart, and he was never willing to walk side by side with him, it was out of courtesy.

If one day, he can not abide by this etiquette, can stand shoulder to shoulder with him, walk hand in hand...

The two walked to the front of the hall, and Li Wangchang bowed to Lv Dongbin.Xie Yunliu knelt down, kowtowed three times, and said: "Master, this disciple is unworthy. When I come back this time, I only want to return to Chunyang. I have committed so many crimes in the past. Please punish me, Master."

Zhuo Fengming looked excited, and was about to speak when Yu Rui grabbed him and winked.Shangguan Boyu looked dull, but there was a flash of excitement in his eyes.

Lu Dongbin glanced at Xie Yunliu, twisted his beard and said, "Get up. As a teacher, I never really blamed you, and I think the disciples are the same." He pointed to the little girl and said, "This is your junior sister, Yu Rui."

Xie Yunliu got up, bowed to Yu Rui each, turned to Zhuo Fengming and Shangguan Boyu and said, "It's my fault that caused you to suffer."

Zhuo Fengming said nonchalantly: "What's the matter! We are looking forward to the senior brother's return every day. Oh, by the way, the master has also accepted an apprentice, a junior apprentice, who is currently in retreat, and we will see each other after a while .Ah, and, Senior Brother, I accidentally demolished your house, and it’s all up to me. Don’t blame me when I get excited.”

Xie Yunliu smiled bitterly and said, "It's my own fault, how can I blame you." Turning around, he wanted to talk to Shangguan Boyu again.

But Lu Dongbin interrupted their reminiscence: "Come in and talk." He glanced at Li Wangsheng again, and said in doubt: "Wangsheng, the imprint between your eyebrows has been there since you followed me when you were 12 years old. Why did this change? ?”

Li Wangsheng was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer, but saw the six-year-old girl Yu Rui's eyeballs rolling around: "I know. It is recorded in ancient books, Shougong Xiyuan between the fences, with Zhu Jin In other words, if it is full of three catties, kill the dry end and use it to smear the body, and if there is a handover, it will be taken off; no, it is like Chi Zhi, so it is named Shougong. Brother Wang Sheng, this is the sand of Shougong."

Shangguan Boyu was in a daze, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but blushed and said, "You're talking nonsense again. Brother Wang Sheng, how could this be Shou Gong Sha? Look, he just changed the pattern! And Shou Gong Sha If you fall off, you want...you want to...what books have you read at such a young age!"

Yu Rui was dissatisfied.Although she is still young, she has been gifted and intelligent since she was a child. , I must have read "Natural History", don't you know this one? Let me tell you, Senior Brother Wang Sheng, this is Shou Gongsha, but the body of a man is slightly different from that of a woman, so it didn't fall off, but turned into another pattern .You see this is clearly a yin fish, isn't it a symbol of yin and yang intercourse?"

Lu Dongbin didn't doubt it at first, after all, he didn't have much memory of Shou Gongsha.At this moment, seeing Li Wangsheng's face turned red and then pale, and his body swayed a little, as if nothing happened, he hurriedly said, "Everyone shut up!"

Yu Rui is nothing but childish words, how can everyone get this Tai Chi pattern?If it is true, it must be that the two Taoist circles have similar movements, similar skills, and similar minds, so that they can gain a lot of enlightenment from this.Taiji embraces all things, one yin and one yang, the supreme magic method, it is the way of dual cultivation.

But looking at Wang Sheng's expression, it seemed extremely painful?

Lu Dongbin suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at Xie Yunliu with piercing eyes.

Xie Yunliu was staring at Li Wangsheng, and when he sensed Lu Zu's gaze, he turned his head, his eyes were deep, full of emotions, and magnanimous.

Lu Dongbin watched him grow up, how could he not understand what he meant?He took a deep breath, fluttered his broad avenue robe, showing the spirit of a great master, and said in a deep voice: "Bo Yu's elixir has not been refined yet, Feng Ming, your confinement has not yet been punished. Go back quickly. "

Zhuo Fengming looked anxious and wanted to stay, after all he was a revered senior whom he hadn't seen for many years, he was quite reluctant to leave.

Xie Yunliu smiled at him: "Go back. Since I'm here, I won't leave unless Master drives me away. There will be plenty of time in the future."

Lu Dongbin sighed again: "Forgetting life, Donghai and his trip really hurt you." Turning his back and shaking his head, he said, "Forget it, take Yu Rui with you and explain the scriptures to her, and the rest will be discussed in due time. flow left."

Zhuo Fengming was still out of the situation, before stepping out of the palace gate, he turned back and said, "Senior Brother Wangsheng went to the East China Sea, was it hard? But it's a happy event to bring Senior Brother back!"

Seeing that Li Wangsheng didn't respond, Zhuo Fengming was a little puzzled, and said again: "After I collapsed the sword energy hall, didn't senior brother rummage for a long time? He said he wanted to not touch it and waited for senior brother to come back. I have been sad for a long time because of this. Isn’t it good now? Senior brother really came back. Isn’t that right, senior brother?”

Xie Yunliu looked at Li Wangsheng sharply.Li Wangsheng's face was pale, and it was rare for him not to say a word to his junior brother's question, he lowered his head and took Yu Rui's hand, not daring to look up, he saluted, turned around and left.

Seeing Li Wangsheng's black eyelashes, Yu Rui's expression was very bad, and he tugged at the corner of Li Wangsheng's clothes: "Brother Wangsheng, why are you sad?"

Li Wangsheng didn't speak, he just took her by the hand all the way to his residence, and took out a volume of Zaowangjing.

Because he was not used to life on the ship, he had a light blue under his eyes and looked haggard.

Yu Rui was puzzled and said, "Senior Brother is back, why is Senior Brother Wang Sheng unhappy? Don't you miss Senior Brother the most?"

Li Wangsheng shook his head and spread out the scriptures: "I'm not unhappy."

Although Yu Rui is extremely smart, he is by no means able to understand people's subtle and delicate emotions, but he faintly felt that something was wrong, and asked, "So we said something wrong?"

Li Wangsheng shook his head again. Although his face was still pale, he seemed to have recovered. He comforted him, "No. You didn't say anything wrong."

Yu Rui seemed to understand but half understood, and was very curious.But she still didn't understand the Sutra of Zuowangjing, so she hurriedly listened to the lecture.Li Wangsheng's Zuo Wang Sutra is the best practice among his disciples, and it is said that even the talented senior brother is not as good as him.

But the matter did not end there.This is probably the first time that Yu Rui has a vague understanding of yin and yang and feelings. It is hard to say that her subsequent choices are not influenced by this enlightenment.

"Yunliu..." Lu Dongbin stood with his hands behind his back, wearing a Taoist robe like a celestial being, the smoke from the Sanqing Palace curled up, and his face was unrecognizable.

Xie Yunliu lifted the hem of his clothes, knelt down and said, "Master, this incident was indeed caused by me. This disciple has committed a heinous crime and owes Chunyang a lot, especially his younger brother. No matter what he does in the future, I'm afraid it will be difficult to undo it."

Lu Dongbin didn't turn around, his voice sounded a bit vicissitudes: "You might as well talk about it in detail from the beginning to the end."

So Xie Yunliu didn't get up, and explained how he had misunderstood Chunyang before; in order to teach Li Wangsheng a lesson, he helped Fujiwara Hiroshi go to the Yasu family to seize the tree; and did the beast to him.

The more he talked, the more depressed he became. All these re-explanations actually re-dissociated the most hurtful and painful parts of his heart.When Li Chongmao and Fujiwara Hiroji branded Li Wangsheng together, Xie Yunliu clenched his fist and slammed it into the ground.

Lu Dongbin turned his head to look at him, although he was a fairy, but his expression was very dignified: "Let me say three things. First, you forced Wang Sheng, and then uttered evil words afterwards. This matter has almost become his This thorn still needs to be removed by you. Second, you are careless in making friends. Although you have made a clean break, if Li Chongmao slanders the reputation of the two of you and even Chunyang based on what Dong Hai saw, will you bear the responsibility? Thirdly, Wang Sheng would not want to tell me about the humiliation of torture. I can pretend that I don’t know, but I have to investigate. Although Taoism emphasizes inaction, it is not a person who forgives lightly. You should think about it carefully. think."

Xie Yun kowtowed in response.

Lu Dongbin's voice came from above, there was a tinge of anger in his majesty, but he was kind and helpless when he listened carefully: "Wangsheng has a smooth temper, I'm afraid I won't complain to you. But as a master, I should be punished, which is also regarded as I will teach you a lesson for him. You go to Lunjian Peak to kneel for three days, and then confine yourself for a month. After that, you will listen to Wang Sheng’s meaning. I have always said that your understanding is extraordinary. It's not cause and effect. I'm afraid you don't fully understand why you look at him and treat him like this. In your spare time, think carefully."

Hearing Xie Yunliu's answer, although his voice was a little confused, it was obvious that he had listened.Lu Dongbin's voice softened a little, and finally showed some warmth, and said: "Since you are a senior brother, you have to take on the responsibility of Chunyang. Most of the affairs in the palace are currently taken over by Wangsheng, and the tedious and tiring things are done by others. I can’t help him either. All these years, he only said that he was doing things for you, waiting for you to return. He takes credit without relying on it, is modest and prudent, and his breadth and generosity are beyond your reach. He is going to be the successor, so you can gradually become familiar with these affairs."

Xie Yunliu kowtowed again and said, "Junior Brother's temperament is a hundred times stronger than mine, so it won't be a problem for me to assist him in the future."

Lu Dongbin shook his head and said, "Wangsheng is very thorough. If he is the head of the sect, Chunyang's affairs will be safe, but since your martial arts are better than him, the people under him may not be convinced. He won't talk to you, he can only talk to you. Work harder. What's more, this person, he has never thought about it, and he will never agree. You are a senior brother, this is your responsibility, so don't slack off."

Xie Yunliu agreed.Even the master knew that Li Wangsheng would not be greedy for the position of head teacher, he was indeed a villain at heart.

Lunjian Peak is located at the top of the northern part of Chunyang, and it is like a fairyland with flying snow all year round.At that time, Lu Dongbin competed swords with the world's masters here. After three years of meditation under the sword pine, he realized the way of heaven, humanity and swordsmanship.

This is the place where the wind and snow are the heaviest, the snow is the thickest, and the coldest in Chunyang. If you kneel for three days in a row, your knees will probably freeze to death.But Xie Yunliu did not say a word, and knelt down.

Luo Feng went to Wanhua three days ago to find Yao Wang's first apprentice. He had not written a letter about Xie Yunliu's return, but the disciple hurried up to report to him when the two of them arrived at the foot of the mountain.

Therefore, Luo Feng didn't know the news until later, and hurried back. When he came back, he saw the master he hadn't seen for many years kneeling upright in the snow.It was so distressing that I was about to cry.

After Zhao Yun's death, he was enshrined as Marquis of Shunping...the soft, virtuous, kind and wise man called Shun, and the deacon had a class called Ping.

That is to say, being gentle, virtuous, kind and intelligent is called Shun, and managing affairs in an orderly manner is called Ping.

Isn't this the master...
