The four seasons are suddenly followed by the dynasties, and all things are declining. Look at the flowers growing in bloom, and observe the reasons for their prosperity and decline. Feeling the growth of winter and the fall of spring, lamenting the luxuriance of summer and the fall of autumn. Although the glory of the last scholar is haggard,
The beauty and evil of human love. Song Yu said: "What a tragedy, autumn is the atmosphere! The grass and trees are swaying and decaying, and the trees are bleak. If you are traveling far away, you will go home by climbing the mountain and walking by the water." The husband sent me home with admiration.
The love of a disciple is there, and the anger of being a traveler in a distant place. Feeling the current in the river, I sigh for the passing away, climbing the mountain to cherish the distance and mourning for the near. The guilt of the four relatives is there, and it is unbearable to suffer. I lament the sadness of autumn,
Forgive me without any worries.

…
After Master Yuankong returned to Mount Emei, he fell seriously ill. After his master recovered slightly, Li Xuexuan went down the mountain alone and rushed to Qingcheng.
The main peak of Qingcheng Mountain is surrounded by clouds and green peaks.
After Li Xuexuan paid homage to the head of Qingxuan, she wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. One step away prevented her from seeing her father for the last time. They were separated for several months, and people and ghosts took different paths.
Ding Shujian comforted him and said: "Miss Li, please bear with me and accept the change. Everyone will die eventually, and the death of the leader is more important than Mount Tai."
Li Xuexuan held back her tears, nodded, and asked, "Excuse me, Senior Brother Bai Fu, where is he now?"
The disciples in Qingcheng were quite embarrassed.
It turns out that after the Battle of Jianmen Pass, out of the seven elders of the Qingcheng Senate, only Taoist priest Qingya survived. Taoist priest Qingya was seriously injured physically and mentally, his heart was ashen, he was in bed for recuperation, and he ignored his academic affairs.
The remaining elders of the "Qing" generation, who were highly skilled in martial arts, upright and noble, escorted Taifu Xu south to the Jianghuai River to build a supply channel for grain, grass and baggage for the Tang army.
Taoist Priest Qingshi and Taoist Qingshuo returned from punishment in the Repentance Cave. When they saw that the elders of the Senate were dead or injured, and that the elders who had traveled far away to fight could not return to Qingcheng for three to five years, they couldn't help but be moved.
After the death of Elder Qingmiao and the head of Qingxuan, among the elders of Qingcheng, Taoist Qingshi has the most respected status, the oldest qualifications, and the highest martial arts. Taoist Qingshi bribed and corrupted, coerced and induced, and encouraged the remaining elders to elect Qingcheng Senate instead. Qing Shuo
The Taoist priest followed Taoist priest Qingshi, jumping up and down, waving flags and shouting.
The new Senate abolished the punishment imposed on Priest Qingshi - lifetime exemption from the Senate. After lifting this ban, Priest Qingshi openly entered the Qingcheng Senate and once again acted as the head of the church.
Taoist Priest Qingshi always hated Bai Fu because of his son, and kept making bad remarks. He once blamed Bai Fu for the death of the head of Qingxuan. Finally, he made up an unfounded crime and expelled Bai Fu from Qingcheng!
After Li Xuexuan heard this, his eyebrows stood upright, his almond-shaped eyes widened, and he held the hilt of the sword in his hand. He almost rushed into the Senate and asked Taoist Priest Qingshi to argue.
Ding Shujian quickly stopped Li Xuexuan and whispered: "Miss Li, you must not do this! You have a special status and must not get involved in the disputes within the Qingcheng sect.
Taoist Master Qingshi's move has aroused public outrage. Everyone in Qingcheng is waiting for Master Qingya to recover. When Master Qingya recovers, or other elders return to the mountain, everyone will publicly recommend Master Qingya to officially become the leader.
To clear away the grievances of Junior Brother Fu."
Zhang Zixuan and Huang Yong, Bai Fu's best classmates, took a chance and secretly said to Li Xuexuan: "Miss Li, Uncle Qingtan has basically connected Bai Fu's hamstrings and hand tendons.
Senior Brother Fu said that Qingcheng is full of memories and is desolate and desolate. Even if Taoist Qingshi does not evict him, he will not be able to stay there for a long time.
He has left Qingcheng and is now resting alone in Dou Tuan Mountain. You'd better go and see him. He is now decadent, confused, and sometimes crazy."
Li Xuexuan thanked them and left Qingcheng that day for Dou Tuan Mountain.
Dou Tuan Mountain is located in Zhangming County, a hundred miles away from Qingcheng Mountain. In the early years, there were many apes and the two mountains were like gates, so it was called "Ape Gate Mountain". In the early Tang Dynasty, Dou Ziming, the chief administrator of Zhangming County, abandoned his official position and lived here in seclusion. He opened mountains, opened roads, and built buildings.
In the temple, Dou Ziming practiced immortality and practiced Taoism. Later, Dou Ziming became an immortal and flew up on a crane during the day. Therefore, it was named Dou Tuan Mountain.
When Li Xuexuan came here, he saw clusters of palaces and pavilions on the front mountain. At the foot of the peak is Yunyan Temple, and outside the mountain gate in front of the temple there is a stone tablet inscribed by Li Bai, saying: "The woodcutter and the cultivator came in and out of the painting screen."
The back mountain is quiet and quiet, steep and steep, with dense summer trees, exotic vines and strange trees. The knife-shaped boulders form the three peaks on the top of the mountain, which look like a tripod rising straight into the clouds.
There is an ancient temple on each peak, named Dongyue Hall, Dou Zhen Hall, and Luban Hall. Among the three peaks, only the West Peak has a dangerous path, while the other two peaks are steep cliffs, like knives and axes, with no way to pass.
The three peaks are connected by an iron cable suspension bridge composed of two upper and lower iron chains. The structure of the iron cable suspension bridge is very simple. It only uses two iron chains fixed on the iron piles at the top of the peak. One is thick and flat for stepping on.
The foot is less than a few inches wide; the other is thinner and can be used as an armrest. It is difficult for people who are not extremely skilled in lightness skills to pass.
The iron cable bridge hangs over an abyss of a hundred feet. If it falls accidentally, it will be shattered to pieces. Whenever the downhill wind blows by, the iron cables will sway left and right and make a clanging sound, adding to the dizziness and frightening feeling.
There are several large characters on the horizontal arch of the cable bridge: "Flying Immortals can cross". It was the inscription written by the banished immortal Li Bai himself!
…
Such a secluded and quiet place is exactly the place for Qingxiu.
Li Xuexuan secretly praised. With his feet on the iron rope, he flew through the forest like a bird and flew into the quietest mountain peak.
On the cliff at the top of the peak, you can overlook the vast fertile fields of Tianfu. A young man is alone, sitting on the edge of the cliff. His rags are billowing in the wind. When he hears the wind behind him, he doesn't look back.
Li Xuexuan sighed and said, "Senior Brother Fu."
When Bai Fu heard the sound, he turned around. He saw that his eye sockets were sunken, his eyes were dull, he was haggard and thin, his face was covered with stubble, and he looked unkempt.
Bai Fu looked at Xuexuan and said blankly: "Master has gone."
Li Xuexuan's eyes turned red and she nodded.
Bai Fu said nothing and turned his head to look at the sky, where there was a hint of floating clouds.
Li Xuexuan walked slowly to Bai Fu's side, sat down with her hands on her knees, and said nothing. The two of them just sat in silence, just like they were on the top of Huashan Mountain.
The afterglow of the setting sun fills the sky with colorful clouds; the stars are dotted and the Milky Way stretches across; the red sun jumps out and the clouds look like brocade.
One day and one night.
…
Looking at the red sun, Li Xuexuan said: "What are your plans for the future?"
Bai Fu's eyes were empty, and he murmured back: "Fend for yourself and die for the rest of your life."
"coward!"
Li Xuexuan's dark eyebrows stood up, her eyes flashed with cold light, she pulled up the hilt of her sword, and the purple sword unsheathed, with a clang, it went straight to Bai Fu's throat.
Bai Fu closed his eyes and didn't make any resistance, waiting quietly for that moment to come. The cold air passed through his throat and disappeared instantly.
Li Xuexuan's sword energy was withdrawn and she stared at Bai Fu without saying a word. After a long time, her tone became warmer: "There are still people who love you in this world. Please cherish it. Accept it and let it go..." After saying this, he drifted down the mountain.
.
A line of tears finally flowed from the corner of Bai Fu's eyes, and the grievances, humility, and frustrations of the past few years poured out. He
He knelt on the ground, howled loudly, beat his chest and feet, and felt heartbroken, and the flying snow surrounded him tightly...
On the mountainside, the sound of crying reached her ears, and Xuexuan ran away in tears, covering her face.
Just when the last tear fell, Bai Fu stood up, swung a sword, and cut the tear in two.
valve!
The two tears instantly condensed into ice beads, fell down the cliff, and shattered to the ground...
