That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 1117 Three Virtues in Three Thousand Words
The old man looked at this hexagram, stretched out his hand to take another thin snowflake from the window, did the same thing, and it shattered with another finger.

He looked again, and there were three horizontal lines, three lines.

Three lines plus three lines is six lines, which is Qian Gua.

The old man finally had a smile on his face.

Work for the sky, be strong and upright.It symbolizes the dragon, and also symbolizes yang and health, indicating prosperity and strength.According to the principle of flexibility of all things, Qian Gua uses Yuan, Heng, Li and Zhen as the hexagram words to show good luck.

A Confucian sage said, "When I am ten, I am devoted to learning; at thirty, I stand upright; at forty, I am not confused; at fifty, I know the destiny; at sixty, my ears are compliant; at seventy, I do what my heart desires and do not exceed the rules."

The older he gets, the more he understands the mystery and unpredictability of the majestic way of heaven above his head. At his current level, he is only one step away from crossing the gate of heaven, and the deeper the feeling, the more people dare not cross the thunder pond.

The old man waved his big sleeves, and the wind blows away the six lines in front of him. Then he slowly got up from the yin and yang platform, stepped down from the platform, and faced the cold wind blowing from the window. The brocade clothes fluctuated gently with the strong wind, swaying unsteadily.

The old man paced back and forth in the abode. From the moment the young junior stepped into Tianhai City, the old man knew that he had come, and the young man also knew that the old man was in this abode. There is only a long corridor and a door that is not too thick. For people of their level, it can be said that they are just a short distance away.

After pacing back and forth a few times, the old man stopped suddenly. The two teachers just stepped on the yin and yang Pisces under the platform, with one foot on the yin and the other on the yang.

In the main hall outside the jingshe, Xu Beiyou, who was resting with his eyes closed, slowly opened his eyes and looked towards the jingshe intentionally or unintentionally.

After a while, the door of the monastery slowly opened, and a tall old man walked out of it, walked slowly through the long corridor covered with curtains, and entered the main hall.

Xu Beiyou got up from his chair, cupped his hands and said, "This junior Xu Beiyou has met Senior Wanyan."

Wanyan Beiyue walked all the way to her red sandalwood chair, then stretched out her hand and said, "Sect Master Xu, please sit down."

The two sat down separately, and Song Qingying stood by Wanyan Beiyue's side.

At this moment, the vice-master of Xuanjiao felt a coercion that trembled involuntarily. This coercion was formed by the fusion of two completely different auras.One is like Huashan, which lies in a dangerous word, like a sharp sword pointing to the sky.One is like Dongyue, which lies in a male character, standing proudly between heaven and earth.

This was not done on purpose by the two of them, but on their own initiative.

Fortunately, this coercion only lasted for a very short time, and it disappeared after a short while, making Song Qingying seem to have lifted a heavy burden from his back.This Xuanjiao Mr. Song, who is expected to climb to the top of the [-]th Floor of the Earth Immortal, did not truly perceive the weight of the holy word among the three saints on the Tianji List until this moment. Even if it is placed among the earth immortals who are also in the realm of the eighteenth floor, he is still a first-class figure, and he has even peeped into the threshold above the eighteenth floor.

After this short air confrontation, the hall returned to calm.

Xu Beiyou slowly opened his mouth and said: "The change of the Circular Mound Altar that day, the younger generation was fortunate enough to witness the majestic appearance of the King, and never thought of seeing the King again until today after so many years."

Wanyan Beiyue took a deep look at Xu Beiyou.

During the change in the Circular Mound Altar, this young man used the power of Chuan Guoxi and Xiao Xuan to forcibly step into the realm of the [-]th Floor of the Earth Immortal. He first fought against Qingchen and then Bingchen. As far as this is concerned, it was just an insignificant passer-by in his nearly hundred years of career.After all, climbing to the top of the [-]th Floor Realm with the aid of external forces is a castle in the air after all. It can be said that seeing him build a tall building and seeing his building collapse, naturally he cannot enter the eyes of a real [-]th Floor Immortal like Yan Beiyue.

But today is not what it used to be, Xu Beiyou is no longer the young man who had to rely on the Chuan Guoxi to reach the top of the [-]th floor, but someone who has been able to sit on an equal footing with him, which is different.

Like Gongsun Zhongmou, Wanyan Beiyue, who has the image of a white-haired old man, did not rush to answer, one hand rested on the armrest, and a cat with light blue fur and white eyebrows ran into the hall from the door, not afraid of life. The man jumped into Wanyan Beiyue's embrace.

Since ancient times, there has been a custom of people in the palace keeping cats, that is, palace cats.During the reign of Dazheng, keeping palace cats reached its peak, and there was a cat room specially set up. According to the records of "Inner House Yamen Duties", the cat room had three or four servants, and it was dedicated to raising famous cats in front of the imperial court. Also increased the rank of steward.

In the reign of Daqi, following the old rules of the previous dynasty, there was also the theory of palace cats.The most famous ones are Xiao Jin's Xue'er and Xiao Zhinan's beautiful. Meili served three generations of emperors and empresses and made great achievements.

After Xiao Yue married Houjian, she also brought this habit to the court of Houjian. This cat was raised by Xiao Yue. Because of her white eyebrows, she was named Shuangmei.

At first, Wanyan Beiyue didn't care about this cat, but after a long time, Wanyan Beiyue found that Shuangmei had a docile temperament and was especially understanding. Whenever Wanyan Beiyue got up or went out, she would be there Formerly a guide, Wanyan Beiyue went to bed, and it would not leave her side, and would leave only when her master woke up. Therefore, Wanyan Beiyue has become more and more fond of it during the decades that she has been imprisoned in Daliang City, and she does not hesitate to spend panacea Innumerable, for it to extend life, until today.

Wanyan Beiyue hugged Shuangmei in her arms, gently stroked its back, and said: "Based on friendship, I and your master Gongsun Zhongmou are of the same generation, and based on closeness, I am Xiao Xuan Uncle, Xiao Xuan is your father-in-law, so he can be regarded as a relative, and I can take on the word "senior" of you, the lord of the Sword Sect. Visit Xiao Yue, what else can I do?"

Putting his hands on his knees, Xu Beiyou replied, "There are business matters and private matters."

Wanyan Beiyue patted Shuangmei's head, and asked, "What is a business matter, and what is a private matter?"

Xu Beiyou said flatly: "The so-called public affairs are naturally state affairs, the important affairs of the state, and the matter of sacrifice and military affairs is not my turn to talk about it, but I still have the seal of General Pinglu, so I can talk to the lord of the country. , there is only the word Rong."

The old man looked at Xu Beiyou, "The so-called word Rong, for Houjian, is nothing more than two choices of sending troops or not. The Daqi court would not want me to send troops, so if you come to talk to me, you can only persuade me not to send troops." It's time to send troops."

Xu Beiyou nodded and said, "Master Wanyan sees it clearly."

Wanyan Beiyue heard the Shuangmei meow in her arms, looked down, put her palm on its head, and said slowly: "The Taoist ancestor has a saying, I have three virtues."

"It's called compassion."

"It's called frugality."

"I dare not be the first in the world."
