Chapter 154 Another year when the fruits are ripe

"Say it in advance! Don't disturb me too often, and I don't know how to predict or divination. I don't have that much ability. If you want to ask about the future, you don't have to ask me!"
"Senior is joking. Being able to know the affairs of the world even though he is in Yishan is already a great skill."
Lin Jue paused for a moment as he spoke, thinking that he would take this opportunity to ask this senior about the ingredients in the golden elixir formula.
The golden elixir formula is extremely precious and confidential. Lin Jue has already thought that no matter where he is, he cannot mention two ingredients in the golden elixir formula at the same time. He can only mention one at a time.
The longer the interval, the better.
The more people you can ask, the better.
However, I have already learned how to make alchemy, so it is not strange to ask the immortal about these things.
Lin Jue thought for a moment and then said, "I just have something to ask my senior. Does he know what the fragrance of swallow eggs is?"
"According to Fuji's rules, you have to go back to the Taoist temple, prepare a sandbox, rice bowl, dustpan and pen, hold the talisman I gave you, light three sticks of incense, call me, and I will rack my brains to write a crooked poem for you.
, you can slowly guess from this crooked poem that you don’t understand.”
"..." Lin Jue thought for a moment, "could it be a swallow's egg?"
"What are you talking about? This is another name for wood essence from the Western Regions. Because it is naturally oval in shape and about the same size as a swallow's egg, it smells strange and can ward off plagues when burned, so it is called swallow egg fragrance."
"I see."
This is consistent with what Lin Jue guessed.
The four directions and five elements golden elixir, fire ginseng, snow lotus, earth elixir, and gold elixir account for four of the five elements. This bird's egg fragrance can only be from the wood element.
Lin Jue finally figured out its character——
If you ask it something, it may not say anything, but if you talk nonsense and it hears it, it will definitely come to refute you and educate you, otherwise it will feel uncomfortable.
"Is this thing famous?"
"They are all said to be Wood Spirits from the Western Regions. Naturally they are not famous in our land of China. Even if there are fairies and ghosts in this mountain who can be immortals or even become Immortals, nine out of ten are not aware of the Wood Spirits from the Western Regions, let alone
You still use the words 'swallow egg fragrance'. If you don't believe me, ask other spirits, most of them have never heard of it."
"Senior's knowledge is indeed profound." Lin Jue complimented, and then said in a positive tone, "Then since it is called the Wood Spirit of the Western Regions, it must be found only in the Western Regions!"
"That's not entirely true! You can find them in the Western Regions, and we are not without them!" The voice in the forest retorted, "In the human world below the mountain, when the imperial court is powerful, it intimidates all directions. The gods must bow to the emperor when they see him, and small countries in all directions will send envoys.
Come to pay tribute, some countries in the Western Regions once presented such treasures to the imperial court. Unfortunately, the emperor did not know this treasure. He only heard Taoists say that scraping powder and making incense can prolong life, so he followed it, but he did not even practice the method of taking it.
Even advanced Taoists cannot fully absorb its spiritual charm by doing this. For ordinary people, it is just a waste of natural resources."
"I see."
Lin Jue immediately felt that he had found the right person for this immortal.
It’s the same big gain the first time.
Then he secretly wrote down this information and saluted deep in the forest:
"Thank you, senior."
"Go back."
"Farewell."
Not only had he solved the confusion in his mind, but also learned the information about Yan Egg Xiang. Not only had he found the Immortal, but also established a fixed relationship with this senior whom he had known for several years. Lin Jue was satisfied and slowly returned to the Taoist temple.
The fox turned back three times every step, still looking for the source of the sound.
Slowly return to the Taoist temple.
"Junior brother, I have asked Senior Ji Xian. He does have a junior. If you are willing, you can arrange for you to meet in a dream to see if it is suitable." Senior Brother said.
"Yes, yes, I also asked. If we all look for the Jixian in Yishan, after many years, we might be able to contact him through the Jixian." Senior Brother Sixth said, "It's just that there is some trouble for Senior Jixian."
"No need, I have already found the Immortal." Lin Jue, who returned to the Taoist temple, first said to his senior brother, and then turned to his sixth brother and said, "But he is also from our Yishan Mountain."
"Who is it?" said the senior brother.
"It can't be the one at the foot of the mountain, right?" Sixth Senior Brother said.
"You guessed it, it's that one."
"That one, that one has a bit of a weird temper." Senior Brother Sixth said.
"Although that person has a weird temper, he and his junior brother are destined to get along well with each other." The senior brother nodded, "Looking for a Yi Immortal is like making friends. The most important thing is to be in harmony with each other by fate."
"Yes."
Lin Jue also smiled and nodded.
Over the past few years, I have had quite a lot of dealings with Yamashita's rebuttal senior, and it can be considered a fate. This fate is much better than that.
"That guy doesn't seem to know how to predict and divination." Senior Brother Sixth said.
"It doesn't matter." Senior Brother said, "Having a wide range of experience and knowledge can equal divination."
Lin Jue also agreed with Senior Brother's words.
All divination in the world is half divination, half prediction, half divination and half calculation. A wise person can know the past and the present, and he will have a good idea of ​​the future.
However, all divination and predictions in the world are not completely accurate, and no one can do it.
Since it cannot be completely accurate, it cannot be completely believed. But as long as you know it, it is not good to believe it, and it is not good not to believe it. It is better not to know it than to mess up your Taoist mind.
Lin Jue quickly returned to the room.
Continue to write and practice spells.

It’s the time when mountain peaches are ripe again.
This is the happiest time of the year for little junior sister.
She was probably born in poverty, and her family was not kind to her. When she was a child, she rarely had enough to eat. Therefore, when the mountain fruits are ripe, the sweet fruits are a great delicacy and can fill you up. For these days
Children from poor families are a gift from God.
But when you are at the foot of the mountain, you may not always have enough wild fruits in the mountains.
Sometimes it is occupied by others, sometimes it is not enough, and sometimes it is picked by others before it is ripe. After all, there are more people than fruit trees at the foot of the mountain.
But Yishan is a fairyland.
There are not many people here, but the mountains are full of fruit trees. When they are ripe, they seem to belong to her alone. She can eat as much as she wants until she is full, and even sleep under the trees when she is full.
Fairy days.
Oh no—
It's not just hers either.
And senior brother.
There are also foxes and colorful raccoons.
"Senior brother, you said it would be great if it was summer all the time on Yishan Mountain and these trees kept bearing fruit."
"You can always eat without worrying about it, right?"
"yes."
Lin Jue thought for a while and said to her: "You might have been a monkey in your previous life."
"It's good to be a monkey in Yishan!"
The little junior sister was standing on the fruit tree, picking out the biggest and most delicious peaches among the dense branches and leaves.
"Our place is worse than Xianyuan Temple. Taoist Wangjizi's place looks good, but in fact it is all bare rocks. Only pine trees can grow." The junior sister said, "It is not as good as our Fuqiu Peak."
She has her own way of appreciating landscapes.
Lin Jue sat in the forest and ate peaches.
The little junior sister kept picking fruits on the tree, making a trembling sound of the branches and leaves. The little fox was beside her, digging holes with all her strength and constantly pulling out the soil. The colorful fox was playing with the corners of his robe.
"Senior brother, it has been raining in the mountains a while ago. It is rare that the weather is sunny today. We can't eat all the peaches we picked, so why not give some to Taoist Wangjizi?"
"OK."
Lin Jue was still sitting and chewing peaches.
The junior sister then picked the peaches more carefully.
After picking the peaches, I dropped them on the ground, sorted some carefully, picked out the good ones, and put them into the basket.
Lin Jue smiled and said that she gave all the good things to others and threw the bad ones to herself. She just listened seriously and did not answer.
"Let's go, senior brother."
Pick up the basket on your back and walk to the distant mountains.
Lin Jue naturally followed behind.
Midsummer is the time when branches and leaves are luxuriant. The road leading out of Fuqiu Peak is more muddy and the vegetation is more prosperous. The mountains are a patch of light or dark green, dotted with purple, white, and pink flowers in the middle. It is like a normal mountain.
The road seems to have become brighter.
Among the light and dark green, there is another stone staircase leading steeply to the mountain. When you first look up, you can't see where it leads.
A woman wearing a light gray and white Taoist robe and carrying a backpack was the first to walk on this road. Behind her was another Taoist, followed by a fox and a colorful raccoon, as if she had walked into a painting.
Going further we entered Stone Mountain.
Lin Jue walked slowly and did not feel tired.
I saw the stone steps going from old to new, passing through the mountain and hanging on the wall, and before I knew it, I reached the end.
Lin Jue couldn't help but stop, lowered his head, and looked at a small purple flower growing in the crack of the stone steps. He then raised his head and found that the Xianyuan Temple was on the opposite side.
The straight-line distance is less than one mile.
The tall and majestic stone mountain and the palace on the stone mountain suddenly seemed like the first time he saw it, giving him a great shock.
But today’s shock comes from another source——
Lin Jue looked at the Xianyuan Temple opposite and at the end of the stone steps at his feet. Only then did he realize that the junior sister had actually built the road to the Xianyuan Temple unknowingly.
"Senior brother?"
Junior sister stood in front and stopped to look at him.
The fox and the colorful fox also stopped to look at him.
"Coming."
Lin Jue quickly followed.
Several years have not brought any changes to Xianyuan Temple. At most, the young Taoist priests practicing swords and spells on the open platform look more mature, and the middle-aged Taoist priests walking there look more vicissitudes. Wangjizi
Master Dao is also a little older than before. With more wrinkles, he looks much kinder.
The younger junior sister has a closer relationship with Xianyuan Temple.
After all, Lin Jue only listened to Taoism and learned spells here, and then came here once a year to communicate, but the junior sister also learned to read and write here.
When he saw the basket of wild peaches carried by the junior sister, Taoist Wangjizi smiled happily and said hello several times, but he really lost the serious look he had a few years ago and asked them again:
"How is your master doing?"
The two looked at each other, but didn't know how to answer.
Wang Jizi almost knew it.
According to his original temperament, he would definitely have said, "I already knew that old guy wouldn't live long," but now he just held his beard and sighed.
Chapter completed!
