"Once upon a time, there was a white snake and a green snake who had been cultivating in a big river for a thousand years..."
Gui Wujiu slowly walked into the cave. At the same time, a clear and bright voice reached his ears.
After walking a few steps further, I looked up and saw a young woman in a plain blue robe, sitting cross-legged on a piece of animal skin and satin; while thinking, she slowly narrated the story.
She has a thin face, a high bun, and a very plain complexion and clothing. If she were stern, she would give people the impression of being remote and unapproachable. However, the smile on her face and the talk in her mouth just diluted this feeling.
I hope it looks very decent and pleasant.
There was another girl, about seventy or eight years old, lying on the side, her head resting on the thigh of the woman in a broad robe, her eyes wide open, and she was listening with great interest.
Not far away from the two of them, there was another man with a calm and gloomy temperament, sitting cross-legged in silence with his eyes closed. He was the owner of the cave here, Xun Shen.
At this moment, Xun Shen suddenly said: "It's our fellow Taoist disciples who have arrived."
The seven or eight-year-old girl was startled at first, and then turned her head to look. Her face showed joy, and she quickly shouted: "Master!"
She moved very quickly, immediately stood up and rushed over, leaping into Gui Wujiu's arms.
For Gui Wujiu, participating in the "Meng Dong Field Hunting" meeting can be said to have started well and ended well. It was completed in one go and the result was extremely satisfactory. But for Huang Xiyin, nearly two years has been a long time. If it is an ordinary person who has no cultivation level,
Children who are separated from their parents for two years between the ages of four and six will almost certainly have to recognize their parents when they meet again.
The young woman in blue robe also stood up to greet Gui Wujiu.
Huang Xiyin had the demeanor of a young adult, and actually recommended Gui Wujiu: "This is Aunt Shen Ke."
He added: "In the past, Sister Caiwei told me stories, and they were all about ordinary people. But Aunt Shen Ke can tell me stories about immortals every day, for several months, without repeating them every day."
Hearing this, Shen Ke responded with a smile and said, "Good boy. My aunt has read a great book about supernatural beings before. There are five to six thousand different stories. I will have plenty of time to tell them to you in the future."
Huang Xiyin clapped her hands repeatedly when she heard this. However, she was held in Gui Wujiu's arms, and her arms were quite unhappy. With a slight struggle, she turned around and sat on Gui Wujiu's shoulders with a light turn.
She seemed to have completely forgotten about running out to play privately, and she didn't seem to take it seriously; she would not mention it at this time.
When Shen Ke saw that Huang Xiyin and Gui Wujiu were as close as ever after two years of separation, a trace of envy flashed in his eyes.
Gui Wujiu said calmly: "Xiyin has grown up now, and is no longer as young as before. Riding on Master's shoulders is not in good taste. From now on, just give her a hug and that's it; don't climb on me anymore."
Huang Xiyin said firmly: "No! I'm only six years old. According to Aunt Shen's story, you don't grow up until you are fifteen."
Gui Wujiu smiled slightly and stopped arguing with her.
In fact, this little guy is very clever and has always had an obsession in his heart to "be better than his predecessor"; but now he has learned well and is afraid of blameless punishment and does not speak out easily. But he still shows it inadvertently in his behavior and movements.
When he came out, Gui Wujiu felt clear in his heart. This little thing rode on him with coquettish energy. In fact, he really enjoyed this kind of superiority and the satisfaction of Gui Wujiu as if he were a cow or a horse.
I just want to take the blame and not expose her.
After Huang Xiyin was enlightened by him, her Taoist mind was flawless; Gui Wujiu was confident that she would not delay her practice. She just asked: "Is your life going well as a guest here?"
Huang Xiyin said loudly: "Everything is fine!"
After thinking for a while, he whispered: "No, it's just a little bad."
It was clear that Xun Shen raised his head slightly. Shen Ke smiled and said, "What's wrong? Why don't you tell me?"
Huang Xiyin said dullly: "Sometimes when I wake up after sleeping for a long time, I always find that there is a spiritual barrier not far away around me, cutting off the inside and outside. I can't sleep at night, I like to walk around, and I want to talk to Aunt Shen. But you are never free, it’s like being in prison.”
"Aunt Shen, do you always have to practice at night without being disturbed by others?"
Xun Shen was startled, but his expression remained normal. However, Shen Ke's face turned red, looking slightly embarrassed.
Gui Wujiu smiled and said, "I'd like to trouble you, fellow Daoist Shen, to hold Xiyin in your arms and go for a walk somewhere else."
Shen Ke knew that Gui Wujiu and Xun Shen had something to say, so he said: "Good boy, my aunt will go aside and continue to tell you the story of 'The White Snake Asks the Immortal'."
As soon as he reached out his hand, he picked up Huang Xiyin and kept him away from him.
Gui Wujiu said with a smile: "Fellow Taoist Xun has always been outstanding and has deep mysteries. I didn't expect that there is a wise helper in the cave."
Even without Huang Xiyin exposing it, the relationship between Xun Shen and Shen Ke could not be hidden from Gui Wujiu's eyes and ears.
Shen Ke can be regarded as a Nascent Soul monk with quite good qualifications and cultivation. His spirit and energy are full and complete, and he does not look like a detained person. But Xun Shen is breathing and exhaling at the side, and his Qi is in an extremely full and relaxed state. The relationship between the two is naturally extraordinary. Furthermore, Shen Ke's clothes were stripped down and he only wore a loose and transparent robe. Only that kind of relationship can stay in the same room for a long time.
When Xun Shen heard this, he only said: "It's difficult. It's ultimately hopeless."
Gui Wujiu said: "Now the situation is fluctuating, and the collisions in the entire world are extremely fierce. People who usually have slim chances may not be able to break this example."
Xun Shen obviously still didn't have high expectations, he shook his head and said: "I hope so."
The two of them seemed to be talking in riddles, but they were actually talking about Shen Ke's qualifications.
There are thousands of methods in the world of monasticism, but only a handful of them require the path of abstinence and unfeeling. For the vast majority of monastics, this is just a matter of their own will.
But judging from the facts, compared with ordinary monks, the choices made by elites with promising paths are completely different.
Let’s not talk about the lowest-level monks from poor families. Let’s look at those who are lucky enough to reach the Nascent Soul realm but find it difficult to take a step forward. It is often seen that they take in concubines and have fun, and even play songs every night. This is especially common when it comes to wealth. The relatively wealthy middle and late Yuan Ying monks of Xiaozong had to use the power of the sect to support one person, and there were many people who placed hundreds or even thousands of singing girls and beauties in their caves.
However, those who have hope for the Taoist realm are invariably relatively poor and do not want to linger on the sounds and looks.
This can not only be described with empty words such as "wholeheartedly pursues the Tao". After all, it is impossible for anyone to spend twelve hours a day on cultivation; entertainment has both advantages and disadvantages.
The reason is that once these people with far-reaching paths break through the Tianxuan Realm, their lifespan is more than 20,000 years. If they see the things they have attached their affection to decay and die and turn into white bones, it will more or less hurt the Taoist heart.
Even though it seems superficially that it can be resolved with the thought of understanding, in fact it is still cast a shadow to a certain extent.
Gui Wujiu said: "With Brother Xun's talent and qualifications, there is no need to worry about finding a suitable Taoist companion."
Xun Shen said calmly: "How can it be so easy to find a proud daughter of Heaven who will definitely achieve the Tianxuan Realm? The safest way is to find one from the Tianxuan Supreme Realm who has already achieved Taoism, and marry her Taoist companion, it's just that Shen Ke and I have some connections, so I allow her to serve me closely."
Gui Wujiu was speechless when he heard this. In the seventy-seven hermit sects alone, there were thirty or forty female cultivators who had reached the Tianxuan realm. He had never thought that Xun Shen would make his decision here.
Xun Shen suddenly smiled and said, "Is there anything wrong with Xun's words?"
Gui Wujiu smiled and said: "Actually, with the current status of Taoist friend Xun, he is a Taoist companion with a certain Tianxuan Shangzhen, and his status is only higher than lower. However, in terms of the past few hundred years, he is the other person's cultivator after all. He is far superior to me. When we stay together with such a person, Brother Xun doesn't feel as if he has lured a wolf into the house, like a light on his back. It's too small for a husband to be strong. I'm afraid that when the time comes, there won't be any secrets in his body in the eyes of the other party."
Xun Shen laughed loudly and said calmly: "Xun doesn't have so many secrets. He can be said to be strong without desires. Why should he be afraid? Gui Taoist friends have too many secrets, so naturally they will not choose this way."
The two looked at each other for a long time and suddenly laughed at the same time.
In the period after Gui Wujiu left, they both knew what kind of twists and turns they had gone through, and it ended with a letter from the Peacock clan.
Even the most brilliant monks do not talk about mysteries without opening their mouths.
The diet of men and women is the most ethical.
Starting from here is exactly the direction of the conversation that is easy to enter for the day.
Gui Wujiu sighed: "Although this little thing thinks he is very smart, how can he survive a few rounds in the hands of fellow Taoist Xun? I'm afraid that by inadvertently asking a few questions along the story, he will be able to learn what he should know. The message is completely covered."
Xun Shen said: "I just have a little doubt in my heart, and I try it just in case. From the standpoint of the Yin Sect, all these are logical methods. No matter what the result is, Gui Taoist friends will not What’s the loss?”
"The Yin Zong has no ability to establish a stronger opponent - this is the reality."
Gui Wujiu smiled and said, "I wonder what Daoist Fellow Xun thinks of Gui's identity after finding clues from this little guy's mouth?"
Xun Shen thought for a while and said frankly: "It is most likely that he is a top figure in the magic way, witch way, and Yin and Yang way; it is also possible that the ancient ruins and some secret realm before the era have strength. At this point, Xun Mou will go again Looking at the words written by Daoist Fellow Gui in the 'Pingjun Jade Leaf Book', I can only see that Fellow Daoist Gui is a person who promotes the chess game. Regardless of whether it is beneficial or detrimental to my Yin Zong, we can only resolve it as the situation arises."
"I just didn't expect that the vastness of the world would actually hide such a powerful force that dominates all directions. Now, the saint ancestors of the clan have recognized that Gui Dao Friends are reliable allies. From then on, we will have victory and no defeat. It can be said that it is good for you and me. It’s the best outcome for everyone.”
Gui Wujiu whispered: "It is indeed crucial to unravel this hidden danger. Gui has never wanted to hide anything, it's just that such a shocking secret cannot be trusted unless it comes from a reliable person. If the fate between Gui Wujiu and the Yin Sect continues, the Yin Sect sects will eventually have a bright future."
Xun Shen calmly said: "If there really is someone in heaven standing behind fellow Taoist Gui, the outcome of victory or defeat will only be in the hands of fellow Taoist. What we can do is very limited after all."
As soon as he said this, the atmosphere suddenly became a little quiet.
Both parties knew that, even though Gui Wu Guo's status in the Yin Sect would only increase in the future, there would always be a slight distance between "allies" and "ours"; this was inevitable.
.
Gui Wujiu laughed and said: "Gui changed his mind and thought about it again. Now he thinks that it is indeed a good idea for Taoist friend Xun to find someone who has become a close Taoist to become a Taoist partner."
"Although there are dozens of female Supreme Beings in the Yin Sect today, no matter what their merits or background, they are all the best. If they succeed, it will be a different feeling."
Xun Shen narrowed his eyes, but he didn't deny it. He only said: "What does it feel like?"
Gui Wujiu said with a smile but not a smile: "In terms of deep foundation and high potential, Taoist friend Xun is naturally above her. But in terms of current cultivation, she is Tianxuan Shangzhen, and you are just a Nascent Soul Master.
She is more than a thousand times stronger than you? Wouldn't it be a special feeling to surrender such a person?"
Xun Shen's face was dull, and he only raised his eyebrows, wondering: "Could it be that when fellow Taoist Gui was practicing Qi and building the foundation realm, something happened with the female cultivator of the Golden Core and Nascent Soul Realm, so he knew what it was like?"
The two looked at each other and laughed again.
Through this seemingly vulgar topic, the two of them seemed to have returned to the time when they were so intimate.
