Xianlu Spring and Autumn

"For a bowl of oil noodles, add two servings of green onions!"

A faint voice sounded in the shop.

"Wait a minute, guest!"

The freckled Xiao Er looked up, a slight look of disdain flashed in his eyes, and he replied feebly.

The one who walked in was a tall young man with a sad face and a blue cloth robe. He had been eating in this restaurant for more than ten days, and he only ordered a bowl of scallion oil noodles every time. It seemed that his money was not well off. .

Xiao Er once thought that this person should be a down-and-out man who wanders the rivers and lakes, or someone like an escort, although he was contemptuous in his heart, but seeing his strong physique, he didn't dare to say anything nonsense.

It was already noon, the sun was shining brightly, and the store was full of customers.

After the noodles with scallion oil came out, Ye Bai sat on a long bench under the shed outside the restaurant, eating slowly, looking around as if he was bored.

Ever since he bid farewell to Ji Baiyi and the others on the road, he had been thinking about the recasting of his Dao heart. After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't help but think of Shangguan Fei.

Shangguan Fei's Dao heart was shattered. It originated when he first came to Bury God Sea. Because of his low cultivation level and wrong decision-making, his fellow apprentices died one after another. Believe in yourself, after joining the White Crane School, relying on indulging your desires to cover up the hesitation and trembling in your heart, until Li Bing died, and finally reached the peak, completely broken.

And he was able to recast his Dao Xin because of Ye Bai's words in Tianluo Casino, which rekindled his high-spirited fighting spirit.

But Ye Bai's situation is different from his. Ye Bai's shattered Dao heart originated from Shan Zhuyang shattering his emotions, which made him waver in the way of sentient beings.I no longer believe that I can use this to slay demons and eliminate demons, and get a glimpse of the road.

And the opportunity to recast Dao Xin must also have something to do with the word love, so after Ye Bai figured this out, he no longer hurried on his way, but went among mortals.Come to experience the warmth and coldness of human feelings and the various states of the world.

This mortal city is called Qingdu, and it is a small city in the Daze Kingdom in the northwest of Li Kingdom. Taoism is respected and respected in the city, and the wind of cultivating Taoism is very strong, which can be seen from time to time on the roadside.Pedestrians dressed as Taoists pass by in a hurry.

Ye Bai has lived in Qingdu for more than ten days, and he hasn't found an opportunity to recast his Dao Xin so far, but his mood has calmed down a lot, and he is no longer as gloomy and irritable as before, and even the cold and hard lines on his face have softened a lot. few.

He wasted half a month here and got nothing, so he no longer intends to stay any longer.Decided to try his luck in the next mortal city.

A bowl of noodles soon bottomed out, Ye Bai wiped his mouth.He took out five big coins and threw them on the table.

"Little brother, don't be in a hurry to leave, treat me to a bowl too!"

In a blink of an eye, an unkempt old man was already sitting on the opposite stool. This old man was wearing a tattered gray Taoist robe.There is no monk breath on his body, just like a mortal.

But just the speed at which they were seated just now was enough to make all the monks stunned. The mortals in the store didn't even realize that there was suddenly another person in the store, as if he had been there all along.

Ye Bai frowned and looked.This old man has white beard and white hair, thick eyebrows and big eyes, with a strange smile on the corner of his mouth. His face looks old, but his complexion is extremely ruddy. His eyes are clear and transparent, as if there is some kind of profound meaning in them. Then fell into it.

Ye Bai's eyes flickered for a moment, then he moved his eyes away, and said in a deep voice, "I don't know you."

Surprise flashed in the eyes of the old man, he grinned wide, and said with a cheerful smile: "It's okay, I don't know you either, but the old man is penniless now, and his stomach is croaking with hunger, and I want you to treat me to a bowl of noodles." , you shouldn't be so stingy?"

Helplessness suddenly rose in Ye Bai's heart. This old magic power was completely restrained, and he couldn't detect the realm of cultivation at all, but just looking at the speed and that glance just now, he knew that it was unfathomable. A bowl of noodles.

"Senior, please speak up if you have anything to say, I'm not used to detours."

The old man smiled and said: "Don't worry, we have plenty of time to talk slowly after eating the noodles."

Ye Bai shook his head, pondered for a moment, and shouted: "Xiaoer, have another bowl of noodles!"

The old man nodded.

Ye Bai clasped his hands together and said nothing.

The old man stared at him carefully and began to size up, and nodded his head from time to time, expressing approval, which made Ye Bai feel embarrassed.

Soon, the face was presented.

The old man seemed to be really hungry. After taking a deep breath of the aroma, he began to eat in big mouthfuls, his mouth full of admiration.

This old food is extremely fast, as if he is in a hurry.

"Boy, you have a good vision. Although the shop is a bit small, the scallion noodles it makes are the most authentic in Qingdu City. I haven't eaten such delicious human fireworks for a long time. This time it's delicious. out of your light."

Ye Bai didn't say a word when he heard the words.

After the old man's noodle bowl had bottomed out, he threw out another five big coins and went straight out of the shed.

People come and go on the street, Ye Bai merged into the stream of people, and went out of the city, the old man had unknowingly slipped by his side, walking side by side with him, this old man was about the same height as Ye Bai, walking while standing When he was there, he was still slightly stooped, with a lazy smile on his face.

"What is the name of the senior?"

Ye Bai asked lightly.

The old man smiled and said: "Old man Yinxuanzi of Wuyanmen, you must have never heard of my name, and that kid Ji Baiyi may not know, I have been away from Wuyanmen for a long time."

Ye Bai's heart moved, of course he had never heard of the name Yin Xuanzi, but the old man seemed to have a very high seniority.

"Senior, why did you find me?"

Yin Xuanzi's face straightened, and he said quietly: "You Taiyi Sect released those guys from the evil mill, just patted their buttocks and walked away, but it hurt the monks near Liguo. Now those guys have colluded with each other. Together, looting and looting everywhere, creating a mess of smoke, the old man didn't have time to go to Bilan Mountain to ask Ji Baiyi for an explanation, so I had to arrest you kid and exterminate them."

Ye Bai's scalp is slightly numb, could it be that this old man has been paying attention to the things in the Four Phases Sect?

Yin Xuanzi seemed to see through his doubts, and explained: "The matter of the Four Phases Sect can't be hidden from those who are interested. This matter has been spread since they were released from prison. There are also people who know about your actions, appearance and methods. Quite a few, although the old man doesn't care about worldly affairs, he is not so ignorant."

Ye Bai nodded slightly, thinking about the release of the monks, he also felt a big headache. When he lifted the restriction for them, he just wanted to get an extra help when he wanted to break into the Four Elements Sect, and he didn't think so much at all.

Now that I think about it, hidden dangers have indeed been buried. Most of those guys have distorted minds, and their storage bags were confiscated by the Four Phases Sect. Arm yourself.

"Senior, since you know, why don't you just get rid of them? With your cultivation base, it's not easy to catch them."

Yinxuanzi smiled and said: "Everything has a cause and an effect. Of course you have to wipe your ass clean for what you Taiyimen have done. Besides, the old man must not act at the critical moment of enlightenment. Otherwise, hundreds of years of understanding will be lost. It’s a loss. But the old man can’t see them doing evil, so he has to arrest you to do this, boy, the old man lost his leg trying to find you, shouldn’t you just stand by and watch?”

Ye Bai nodded slightly, and said as if nothing had happened: "Where are they hiding? I will get rid of them immediately."

Yinxuanzi said happily: "About five hundred miles to the south of this place, there is a valley called the Valley of No Return. It was originally a battlefield for mortals to kill and kill. Over the years, it has become a place full of death. If mortals do not enter, it is normal The monks seldom go there, and now they occupy it as a temporary shelter."

"Thank you, senior, farewell!"

Ye Bai kept this in mind, cupped his hands, and strode away.

"Boy, can you do it alone? Do you want to take my identity token and go to Wuyanmen to call for some helpers?"

Yin Xuanzi's playful voice came from behind.

Ye Bai shook his head and smiled. (To be continued..)
