Chapter 92 Should be closer to the gods
"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding..."
There is no other sound in this mountain, only the sound of the bell echoing deep in the white clouds, clear and ethereal.
A group of three people and a donkey.
A thin middle-aged man, wearing a wide robe, a bamboo hat, and a beard, is riding on the back of a donkey. The wide robe covers his legs. The man is also weak, and the donkey is also weak.
It actually gives me a sense of harmony where negatives are balanced by positives.
What an image of a frail scholar.
There were two servants beside him, one was eighteen or nineteen years old, with a round face, carrying a bag and leading a donkey. The other was in his twenties, with a resolute face, carrying a bow and arrow on his back and carrying a long knife.
"Officer, there is someone in front of you."
"He seems to be a Taoist gentleman."
"Go over and have a look!"
The man on the donkey's back tried hard to look over. He had been studying for many years and his eyes were dim and could not see clearly, but he still showed excitement.
Only when he got closer did he see it clearly.
He is indeed a Taoist gentleman.
The man's eyes immediately lit up——
Could it be that there are immortals on this Yunding Mountain?
However, when he glanced at the horse grazing next to him and the quilt on the ground, he couldn't help but feel disappointed, but he didn't show it. Instead, he approached on a donkey, got off the donkey's back, and offered his hand to Song You:
"Meet sir."
Song You had no choice but to stand up and return the gift:
"Be polite."
"My surname is Cui, my name is Shang, and my nickname is Nanxi Jushi. I am originally from Xuzhou. It is really destined that I met you here."
"My surname is Song, my name is You, my courtesy name is Menglai, and I am from a mountain in Lingquan County, Yizhou."
"Don't you have a nickname, sir?"
"No code yet."
"this……"
"Don't misunderstand me, I just came down the mountain not long ago and haven't decided what to call it yet," Song You said calmly.
"I see."
Cui Nanxi smiled and then asked: "Mr. Menglai, are you going to the mountain?"
"Exactly."
"Do you want to go to the top of the mountain?"
"Going to go."
"The road to Yunding Mountain is difficult to walk, and it is difficult to reach the sky. The rumors are getting more and more mysterious, but fewer and fewer people dare to say that they have gone to the top of the mountain." Cui Nanxi cupped his hands, "I only saw Mr. along the way. I wonder if I am lucky.
Are you going to go to the top of the clouds with your husband?"
He paused for a moment and glanced at Song You's horse and cat: "If we meet a jackal, tiger or leopard, we'd better take care of each other."
"If you have similar foot strength, it's better to go together."
Unlike Cui Nanxi who focused on Song You, the guard behind him observed more carefully. He quickly turned his attention to the bay-red horse next to him and noticed that the horse had no reins.
But he didn't say anything.
This can only show that people did not get here by luck, and it may be a good thing to be accompanied by it.
"Sir, please stop standing and talk. Sit down."
"good."
They both sat down on the lawn, a distance apart, facing the sea of clouds in front of them, taking the openness into their chests.
Cui Nanxi looked left and right, looking for something to say: "Is this Mr.'s cat?"
"That's right."
"This cat followed Mr. up the mountain?"
"Yeah, I'm very tired."
When the calico cat lying on the ground heard this, he immediately raised his head and stared at Song You. If no one else was present, he would have retorted long ago.
"Won't it run away?"
"Won't."
"I've heard people say that it's difficult to raise a cat to maturity. I wonder how Sir did it?"
"Treat it with your heart."
"What a treat!"
Cui Nanxi couldn't help but clapped his hands, feeling that although this gentleman was young, he still had some wonderful qualities, and then said: "Sir, you must have come to Yunding Mountain to look for immortals, right?"
"It seems that the same is true for you."
"Aren't all the people who come here?" Cui Nanxi looked up at the sky with a look of fascination, "I heard that Mr. Cheng'an met the gods on this mountain twenty years ago, and they talked over wine, how happy it is! Let's go further.
Countless people have met immortals in this mountain before, but I don’t know if I will be lucky enough to find one, and I don’t know what the immortal is like..."
"Mr. Cheng'an really met a god?"
"Who knows..."
When Song You heard what he said, he knew it.
No matter whether people in the past really met gods here, or pretended to meet gods here, whether they didn't meet gods at all, or they only met mountain elves and Qingxiu hermits who seemed to be gods, Cui Nanxi hopes to meet them here.
The fairy in your own heart.
Looking at him like this, I'm afraid this is the moment of frustration.
Since ancient times, poets and literati have always loved looking for immortals when they were in poverty.
But Song You almost thought the same thing in his heart——
Judging from those rumors, he felt that there were probably no gods in Yunding Mountain, but he still hoped to find them here.
But what is a fairy?
In other words, what does the god he wants to meet and see look like?
When the two words "神仙" are separated, their meanings are actually similar and complementary, but there are differences upon closer inspection. Most people confuse them with the same meaning, and there is not much difference between gods and immortals.
Upon closer inspection, comparing the two, words such as god and belief, responsibility, and power are closer, while immortality is more like a state and a kind of cultivation.
If the god he is looking for is of course not the kind from the Heavenly Palace. But even if he is not an omnipotent god in a broad sense, he should still have unimaginable power and meritorious deeds that he admires endlessly.
If the immortal he is looking for should be someone who is far away from the world, has profound Taoism, unique insights into worldly affairs, and an extraordinary state of mind. If the level of cultivation is really high, even if the Taoism is lower or even
No, he would also like to call him an immortal.
It’s just that it’s so easy to find.
Just as I was thinking about it, Cui Nanxi's voice came from beside me: "It's a little chilly sitting here. Sir, why don't we continue our journey and try to climb to the top today."
"That's fine."
Song You also got up.
When he heard them talking, the calico cat got up, stretched out, and walked ahead.
In order to prove that she was not tired, she flew her four little feet upside down very fast. When she encountered some weeds blocking her path, she would not even drill through them, but deliberately jumped over them.
When Cui Nanxi saw that Song You was not riding a horse, he stopped riding a donkey and walked with him, looking at the cat and laughing as he walked:
"Mr.'s cat is really understanding of human nature."
"She's very smart."
"She actually looked back!"
"She heard it."
"Hey! My eyes are so dim that I just realized now that my husband's horse doesn't need a leash!"
"The horses are also obedient."
"Do you also treat it with your heart?"
"almost."
"Sir is also a master."
Not far from the front, I suddenly saw a red leaf.
