Chapter 354: Limited Comfort On top of Yishan Mountain, under the peach blossom trees. It was still a piece of coarse cloth, even the same one as before, spread on the ground, and filled with food and drinks. There are freshly made date cakes, still hot and sweet and fragrant, osmanthus rice cakes, emerald green turtledove tofu, braised chicken and duck, fried fish, and sweet pine needle honey sparkling water. The two little Taoist boys sat a little outside, their cheeks covered with pastry crumbs and grease, but they looked up and watched the butterflies flying in the sky. That was no ordinary butterfly— The pink peach petals became wings, the peach stamens became antennae, and the flower stems became the body of the butterfly. If you don’t look closely, it really is a butterfly. But if you look closely, it will seem even more magical. The two little Taoist boys didn’t care about anything else. They just felt that at this moment of spring, they were living a god’s life. At this moment, their uncles were gods. What the gods talk about are naturally the words of gods. The two little Taoist boys couldn't understand.

The master and several uncles were all flipping through a book, sometimes tasting delicious food, sometimes drinking some honey water, frowning from time to time, talking from time to time, all in words that they could not understand. Only the Eighth Uncle and the Ninth Uncle have the most free time. Ninth uncle kept eating and drinking, and his appetite was huge. When he had a little free time, he would feed the cat and the fox, or pass some food and drinks to them, and pour water for the other uncles. Eighth uncle was also very leisurely, quietly enjoying the beautiful spring scenery with an expression in his eyes that they could not understand. Occasionally, he would interject a few words with the other uncles and answer their questions. The mountain flowers withered wave after wave. The apricot blossoms faded first, followed by the peach blossoms, and then the rhododendrons and magnolias. They all dyed the mountains red, but then returned to green. Slowly from spring to summer. Summer in the mountains is not hot, but it rains a lot. It is difficult to go out when it rains, and the mountain fog rises, and you can't see anything. However, the Taoist temple is also quiet at this time, and few people go up the mountain. You can sit in the hall in the house and listen to the rain quietly, or you can go up the mountain in the rain, find an old pine tree with branches that can shelter you from the rain, and sit cross-legged under the tree to practice. When the rain stops, the mountains are clear and covered with clouds and mist, which is the most beautiful scenery of Yishan. The palace in heaven is just like this. I paid homage to my master twice, came back once and once during the Qingming Festival, and went to Tiandu twice, but I never had the chance to see the immortal again. Accompanied by my junior sister, I visited the wonders of the mountains several times, watched many sunrises and sunsets, went to the foot of the mountain to stroll and shop during the market, and cooked according to my own preferences when I came back. The rest of the time I meditated and practiced, leisurely and leisurely, just like a immortal. Except for the absence of the master, no one knew where the third senior brother had wandered off to, and his days were pretty much the same as before in the mountains. "Yishan is still the best place for cultivation!" On the top of a strange peak in the mountains, under the shade of ancient pines, Lin Jue sat cross-legged and sighed. "Yes." Not far away, the junior sister immediately agreed. Yishan is full of spiritual charm and infinite mystery. It is a good place for spiritual practice whether you are practicing Yin-Yang or Five Elements. Practicing here is much faster than in the capital. Even compared to Fengshan, it is faster. Without comparison, you won’t know the gap.

After saying this, the little sister couldn't help but wonder again. She turned her eyes away from the ever-changing rolling sea of ​​clouds and the stone peaks and ancient pines in front of her and looked at her senior brother: "Senior brother, why can't we just practice in the mountains and live like this forever? Why do we have to go down the mountain?" "How can it be that easy?" “But I think it’s easy.” "At the beginning of our practice, our master taught us to gather more mountains and rivers and absorb more spiritual charm." Lin Jue said, "Besides, if we don't go down the mountain, where will we get the Five Elements Spiritual Method? And where will we find the Great Yin and Yang Method?" "No, it's not bad." The junior sister looked serious and spoke seriously. "Once the senior brothers have fully understood the Great Yin-Yang Method, I will teach them the art of divine movement. After they have taught us, it will be much more convenient for us to get to know each other." Lin Jue said. "Brother! I want to learn how to become smaller!" "Get smaller?" "I want to fly on the back of a bird, too!" "It's not impossible." Lin Jue said thoughtfully, "but you still need to learn one more method of gathering beasts and taming birds..." At this moment, a voice came from below: "Don't let her learn!" When he first heard it, he thought it was a monster in the mountains interrupting, but when he listened carefully, he realized it was his own fox. Lin Jue thought it was talking to him, so he lowered his head and looked. He saw a fox and a cat just below the stone peak. They had caught something in the mountains and were eating it together. While the fox was chewing, he spoke to the cat: "She learned how to ride you!" The junior sister looked serious, as if she didn't hear anything. Lin Jue smiled and continued to think: "Although Junior Sister is very talented, her talent is mostly in the five elements. This kind of mysterious Yin-Yang magic is not easy to learn. If you want to learn the small magic, you have to learn the method of gathering beasts and taming birds. If you simply want to experience the feeling of being in the sky, it is better to learn the bird magic from Fuyao after a while. This way you only need to learn one method, which will be more fun." "Bird Transformation Technique?" "That's right..." The fox's voice came from below again, "You call me Teacher Fuyao, and I will teach you when the time comes. Once you learn it, you can become a night owl. Anyway, you look similar." The junior sister also showed some reflection in her thoughts. This is a good idea. Senior Brother is extremely gifted in Yin-Yang magic, and he seems to be assisted by God in learning any magic, so he learns magic quickly and learns a lot. Apart from Senior Brother, let alone myself, even the other Senior Brothers who are still practicing Yin-Yang magic are probably not like Senior Brother, who learns every magic he sees without worrying about wasting time. It is always easier to learn one skill than two. Besides, my brother and I have different skills. Besides using them to travel faster, in a fight, my brother's shrinkage may be helpful. But if I become smaller, it will be difficult to hurt others with my sword or palm. "it is good!" The junior sister nodded. As he was speaking, a voice came from below: "Puff puff..." A crow flapped its wings as if showing off to a friend and flew up clumsily. However, its flying posture was too strange, and halfway through the flight, it seemed unable to maintain it, and it suddenly turned back into its original fox form in mid-air. Fortunately, the fox itself had its own abilities and did not fall directly. Instead, it stretched its body in the air and used the momentum of the air to take a few steps. It stepped on the branches of an ancient pine tree, stepped on a few pine needles, and then stepped on a nearby stone and returned to its original position.

“I’m too full~” The fox said this to the cat. At this time, two little Taoist children from Fuqiu Temple came over and looked up at them from a distance. There were blue sky and white clouds, and the sun was dazzling. Ordinary people could not look directly at the sky with their eyes wide open, so they had to squint. They could only see the forest of strange peaks in front of them. On top of one of the tall and straight peaks grew an ancient pine tree that looked like it was holding an umbrella. There seemed to be a figure sitting under the pine tree, but it was hard to tell whether it was a person or one of the strange rocks that looked like gods and were common on Mount Yi. It was not until the two figures stood up that I realized they were my uncle-master. The stone peak was really like a pillar, tall and small. The side facing them was a completely vertical and flat stone wall. Even the ancient pines of Yishan could only grow horizontally in the cracks, and grass could not grow on it. I don't know how the two uncle masters got up there, and how they will get down. Just as I was stunned, I saw Uncle Nine take a step forward and fly down, his figure was like that of a god. Eighth Uncle also took steps forward at a leisurely pace, actually walking down the vertical and flat cliff of the stone peak, even turning his body sideways. However, he was as relaxed as if he was walking on flat ground, and in a trance, it seemed like he was performing the magic spells rumored by the gods in the world. The two little Taoist boys were already stunned. Back at the Taoist temple, two little Taoist boys stood on the left and the other on the right, one massaging the legs and shoulders of Uncle Eighth, while the other fanned Uncle Ninth. Lin Jue and his junior sister looked at each other and both found it interesting. Kids are so fun. "Your master will naturally teach you your magic after you have practiced Taoism. However, since you have served your eighth and ninth uncles well, we also have some treasures to give to you as a gift." "What treasure?" The two little Taoist boys immediately became interested. Lin Jue took out a small silver pot and a string of beads from his cloth bag: "This is what your Ninth Uncle and I agreed on. I'll give one to each of you." First hand the silver pot to Ji Yin. "This small silver kettle was given to us by a Dazu Master. You can use it to drink or boil tea. It's fine, but you must not blow air into the mouth of the kettle casually, otherwise -" Lin Jue held it in his hand, lifted the lid, and blew a breath: "call……" A faint white smoke suddenly emerged from the spout of the pot, and under the sunlight, it shone with ever-changing colorful light, making people dizzy just by looking at it. "This smoke can cause people to faint and hallucinate. It should not be used lightly against monsters or people in the mountains. It can only be used for self-defense when you go down the mountain to eliminate monsters after you learn the magic." "hiss!" Ji Yin was surprised and took it respectfully with both hands. "Thank you, Uncle Eighth and Uncle Nine." The junior sister took the beads from Lin Jue and handed them to Ji Yang. "This string of beads was also given to us by a Dazu wizard. It fell apart once, so I re-stringed it. Wear it on your hand to ward off evil spirits and prevent nightmares. If you encounter goblins or ghosts, you can take out one and throw it out to ward off the enemy, or you can throw them all out at once, but it will only be effective if they hit the target. As for its power, I have never seen it." Ji Yang was equally serious, opened his eyes wide, and took it with both hands.

"Although practicing Taoism seeks freedom and ease, self-discipline is also the most important lesson. The two are not actually in conflict. Make good use of them." Lin Jue said. "Yes." The junior sister followed suit. The two little Taoist boys were overjoyed and excited, and their impressions of their Eighth and Ninth Uncles were extremely good. Before I knew it, another season has arrived. One night in early autumn, Lin Jueben was meditating in the yard, bathing in the moonlight and enjoying the coolness of the autumn night, when he suddenly opened his eyes. A little ghost appeared beside me silently. The little ghost looked about four or five years old, and was cute. He wore brown clothes and a brown hat. There was a small brown ball on the hat, but he had a serious face and pointed in the direction of the capital: "Go this way!" Lin Jue was silent for a moment, then immediately understood. He sighed and stood up. …… Asking for double monthly tickets at the end of the month! (Bow and expose chest) (End of this chapter)
