Chapter 50 Laba
The twelfth lunar month.
Cold wind, light snow, late at night.
Two figures supported each other, walking with difficulty on the mountain with one foot deep and one foot shallow, in the dim moonlight and heavy snow on the ground, making a "creaking" sound.
"Senior brother, I really can't walk anymore!" A figure sat slumped in the snow, breathing heavily.
She was about eighteen or nineteen years old. Her hair was wet with sweat and stuck to her face, but she still had a kind of beauty, like a lotus flower emerging from the water. In addition, she was wearing a purple robe and had a short sword hanging from her waist, which made her look quite delicate.
"Junior Sister Su, hold on! If you don't leave now, that demon monk Wujing will catch up!" The other person was a tall, handsome young man named Li Yiyan. He was wearing a gray-black robe, carrying luggage on his back, and leaning on a long sword in his hand. He was also exhausted, but he gritted his teeth and persisted.
"No! No! I've been walking for a whole day and night! I really can't..." Su Yeye, known as Junior Sister Su, took a breath, swallowed her saliva, and continued, "...I can't walk anymore!"
The two of them were just seeing their true cultivation, having just cultivated their true qi, and were returning to their hometown in Jinyang City from Yingyin City. They had never expected to stay in a temple, but were instead spotted by a demon monk from the Jianse Sect.
In the cold winter, the evil monk was bored in the temple. When he saw two handsome men and beautiful women, he immediately became lustful. He wanted to take them in, love them well, and help them comprehend the supreme magic of the See Color Sect!
The two of them came from the "Daolong Sect", a major sect in Yingyin City, and were themselves famous families in Jinyang City. How could they accept this?
They started fighting as soon as they had a disagreement.
Although the demon monk was a true cultivator, he had profound cultivation and innate supernatural powers. With a sword and a Zen staff, he beat the two men and made them flee in panic.
"But if that evil monk catches up with us, we will lose our virginity to him! Junior sister, do you really want to endure this humiliation?" Li Yiyan said to Su Yeye.
"I... I really can't walk. I can only..." Su Yeye said tearfully. She had walked for a whole day and night, chewing on the snow twice. Now she was really tired and hungry, and her physical strength was almost exhausted.
"But I don't want to suffer this humiliation!" Li Yiyan gritted his teeth and said, "Come, Junior Sister Su. I'll carry you!"
That evil bald man from the See Color Sect is notorious for both men and women, just like the women from the Heavenly Maiden Sect.
"Senior Brother..." Su Yeye was so moved that she didn't know what to say.
The senior brother could have abandoned her, but he still carried her on his back.
Li Yiyan hung the package on his chest, carried Su Yeye on his back, and staggered towards the distant light, one step deep and one step shallow.
"Junior Sister Ye! If the evil monk catches up with me, I will kill you first and then kill myself! Daolongmen will not tolerate such humiliation!"
"...Okay, I'll listen to you, Senior Brother!"
He didn't know where the place with the light was, nor did he know if there was anyone there who could save them.
But he was unwilling to sit back and accept his fate. Even if he did something, it would be better than doing nothing.
On the hilltop not far behind them, a large monk in a gray-brown robe, a sword at his back, stared at them. It was Wujing, his face a lustful one, and he followed them patiently. He was just waiting for them to run out of energy, so that he could indulge them at will.
Donor! What you see is emptiness, and emptiness is form. What difference does it make between a man's appearance and a woman's?
Let me teach the Dharma to the two donors and welcome them to enjoy bliss!
Thinking of this, Wu Jing whispered "Namo Colorless Bliss Buddha" and slowly followed the pace of the two.
Carrying a person on his back did put a lot of pressure on Li Yiyan. But for the sake of his chrysanthemum, Li Yiyan still unleashed his full potential, allowing him to walk towards the light on the mountain step by step.
People, if you don’t push yourself, you will never know how strong you are!
The closer you get to the light, the more you smell the aroma of porridge, as well as the aroma of other foods such as red dates, peanuts, and lotus seeds.
"Senior brother, the Laba porridge smells so good!" said Su Yeye who was on Li Yiyan's back.
It turns out that today is Laba Festival!
"Brother, put me down! Let's hurry over and get a bowl of Laba porridge!" Su Yeye rested for a while, and thinking of the taste of Laba porridge, she felt energetic again.
"Okay! I still have some silver on me! I hope that evil monk won't chase us too closely, let us have a full meal, take a rest before fighting him!" Li Yiyan said.
The bright light in the mountains is naturally the small temple of Shi Feizhe and Chong Jiuyuan.
At this time, Shi Feizhe was sitting in the main hall in the middle, holding Laba porridge and bragging, telling the story of "The Knight's Way" to the old man Chong Jiuyuan.
"The Laba porridge on the Knight Island is made from the poisonous herb Heartbreak combined with 108 other herbs. It's not only non-toxic, but can actually increase your strength. When my cousin Shi Potian saw no one was drinking it, he..."
"That's bullshit!" said the old man Chong Jiuyuan sitting opposite him. He was still the same, almost unchanged from when Shi Feizhe met him two years ago.
He doesn't look like he's dying at all.
"Poison is poison. Even if it's boiled with other herbs, it won't become a tonic! This "My Cousin's Adventures" isn't as good as the previous "Three Idiots." The old man took a sip of Laba porridge and said:
"Although the 'Northern Divine Art' is made up, it does have a silly and cute feel to it that comes from someone who doesn't know martial arts."
After spending so much time with Shi Feizhe, the old man had even learned the term "stupid and cute." In his words, true qi is the product of "blood, energy, and spirit." Everyone's true qi carries the imprint of their own will, so it's impossible to just absorb someone else's.
Unless the person is practicing the wrong martial arts!
If you absorb other people's true energy casually, aren't you afraid of becoming a fool? Aren't you afraid of being raped by other people's true energy?
"Grandpa, we are just bragging and chatting, don't take it seriously! You are not like some people who will write hundreds of words to start arguing if they feel that something is not to their liking!" Shi Feizhe said while drinking Laba porridge.
Hmm...last year's Laba porridge was burnt, but this year's is pretty good.
"That has to be something that people can listen to and watch, and it should conform to common sense!" The old man sneered, "You can't just think the world is like this, and that's how you are! That's too ridiculous."
"Then are you still going to listen to "The Adventures of My Cousin"? " Shi Feizhe was speechless at this argumentative old man.
For more than two years, this old man has really refuted everything.
What is Chongjiu Yuan? It would be better to call it Chongjiu Gang!
"Listen! Of course I have to listen!" said the old man.
At his age, he is already very satisfied to be able to grow flowers, plants and vegetables in peace and listen to Shi Feizhe's nonsense.
Although many of them were contrary to his common sense, it was still quite interesting to listen to them as a side story.
"My cousin looked at the lush green Laba porridge, drank a bowl, smacked his lips, and thought it tasted good. It was sweet and delicious, with a hint of grass, much better than meat and fish. He drank another bowl in full view of everyone."
"I drank bowl after bowl. I don't know how many bowls I drank, but I just felt full in my stomach. Then I said, it would be better if there were some pickles." Shi Feizhe made up the story according to his memory.
"How can you eat pickles when eating Laba porridge? You are talking nonsense again!" said the old man.
"The world is so big, how do you know that Laba porridge can't be eaten with pickles? You probably don't know that in some places, tofu pudding is eaten sweet!"
"How can I eat tofu pudding if it's not sweet?"
"I..." Shi Feizhe was about to say something when he heard a knock on the door.
Shi Feizhe: The adventure story of my cousin was told by my cousin himself.
