Yuanjiang is located in the southeast of Yunnan. Its upper stream is called Baiyanjiang. Its middle stream passes through Yuanjiang County and was originally named Yuanjiang. It flows down through the river mouth and is the junction of China, Tu and Miao territories. It is also called Fuliang River or Red River. There are several large tributaries in the middle. The place is remote and stretches across the southern border, surrounded by winding mountains and ridges. The most famous ones, such as Ailao Mountain and Zuolong Mountain, are all located near the river.
As the saying goes, the mountain is no longer high, but it has the name of an immortal. Although Ailao Mountain is not as well-known as the Five Sacred Mountains, it has attracted many immortals to live in seclusion here because of its beautiful scenery and underground collection.
And on the Daxiong Ridge of Ailao Mountain near Yuanjiang River, there is a Kuzhu Temple, which is the secluded place of Zheng Dianxian, a master of Dadian. The Kuzhu Temple is located halfway up the mountain, with mountains and luxuriant forests and bamboos on three sides. On one side, there are dangerous cliffs, thousands of meters high, and the Yuanjiang River below. Because the site of the nunnery is relatively high, standing in front of the nunnery, you can see the Yangtze River in the distance. The waves are thousands of miles away, and the sound of the waves fills your ears. The scenery is elegant and beautiful, clear and unconventional.
At this time, over the Yuanjiang River, a sword light suddenly crossed the sky and went up the Yuanjiang River to the top of Daxiong Ridge. After circling for a while, it fell directly in front of Kuzhu Temple.
The sword light dissipated, revealing a figure, but it was a beautiful girl with two swords on her back and a heroic spirit between her brows. She is none other than Yang Yingxue, Dugufeng's soul clone. Compared with a hundred years ago, she looks the same. She still looks like a girl of twelve or thirteen years old. However, her whole body has an ethereal temperament, which seems far away and uncertain. However, it gradually becomes consistent with the original body. It is no longer the same as before. Characteristics, distinct.
Yang Yingxue seemed to be very familiar with Kuzhu Nunnery. When she landed in front of Kuzhu Nunnery, she didn't notify her. She just climbed up the steps and walked leisurely through a lush green bamboo forest. Her relaxed and comfortable appearance was not unlike that of Kuzhu Nunnery. I am a guest, but I feel as comfortable as returning to my own home.
At the same time that Yang Yingxue arrived in front of Kuzhu Nunnery, a Taoist nun in tattered clothes but with strange features suddenly opened her eyes. She pinched her fingers to make some calculations, and suddenly with a wry smile on her face, she looked at the person sitting down. He said to the young girl: "There are old friends coming to visit outside the door, Zhao'er and Xian'er. If you go to greet Yi Er, say that the master is in retreat and has no time to see the guests"
The pair of girls looked young. They were both dressed in red and had beautiful faces. What was even more rare was that their faces were similar, as if they were twins. It was difficult to tell them apart. When they heard the master's instructions, they all laughed and asked sweetly: "Master said that an old friend came to visit, but he didn't want to see the visitor. Could it be that a bad visitor came to the door?"
The Taoist nun in tattered clothes gave a wry smile and sighed: "If an evil guest comes to the door, it's easy to get rid of it! But Hey, we often hear that it's hard to let go of good wealth, don't you know that it's hard to let go of good deeds too!"
The pair of girls who looked like twins seemed to understand their master's words. They couldn't help but look at each other and secretly stuck out their tongues. It seemed that their master had encountered some kind of headache! Suddenly, he became curious about the identity of the visitor. Who could put his master in such a dilemma?
The pair of girls secretly guessed the identity of the visitor, then stood up and walked out of the cloud room, preparing to politely refuse the visitor as instructed by their master.
Outside Kuzhu Temple, there is a lush green bamboo forest covering an area of ??hundreds of acres. The bamboos are as thick as the mouth of a bowl. Their strong joints reach the clouds, and the sky blocks the sun. At a glance, it is really green and the bamboo waves are like the sea. Naturally, this elegant bamboo forest has been cast with forbidden magic, which has the effect of moving the five elements and being so close to the end of the world. But she couldn't stop Yang Yingxue at all.
The pair of girls had just walked out of Kuzhu Temple and happened to see Yang Yingxue in her clothes, walking leisurely through the green waves of bamboo and coming towards them.
"Hey, it turns out to be the sister of the Yang family. Who is the acquaintance that the master mentioned? It turns out" The more lively of the pair of girls saw Yang Yingxue, her eyes lit up and she greeted her with a cheerful smile.
"Ahem!" The calmer one of the pair of girls almost spilled the beans when he saw his younger sister. He quickly pulled her sleeve secretly and said first: "It turns out it's sister Yang's visit. What a coincidence. The master is in retreat and cannot be present to greet him. I hope you will forgive me"
"It's the two sisters Zhao'er and Xian'er!"
Yang Yingxue had a panoramic view of their expressions and their little movements, but she didn't say anything more, she just nodded and greeted them as if she hadn't seen them before.
This pair of girls, who look like twins, are Murong Zhao and Murong Xian, two disciples of Master Zheng Dianxian, the owner of Kuzhu Temple. Speaking of which, Yang Yingxue and Master Dadian had a close relationship. The two of them were not only close friends several lives ago, but also had a master-disciple relationship in their original "history". If calculated based on the fate accumulated in previous lives, apart from Chu Feng, Er Feng and other sisters and relatives, the person closest to Yang Yingxue is Master and Disciple Zheng Dianxian.
Although the emergence of Dugufeng has changed the future direction of Tianji,As a result, the original master-disciple relationship between "Yang Yingxue" and Zheng Dianxian was abandoned, but after all, the relationship was decided long ago, and the relationship between the two parties is still very good. In the past two hundred years, Yang Yingxue often interacted with Zheng Dianxian as an "old friend". The two of them were Taoist friends and got along very harmoniously.
"However, although Zheng Dianxian came from a side family, his heart was on the right path, and his friendship with Emei was quite good. In the past, this may have been a symbol of wide acquaintances and many friends, but now that the Taoist and side sects are increasingly opposing each other, and the two camps of Emei Ziyun are separated, it would be embarrassing for a centrist like her who has good relations with both sides!
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out out of a side sect, training is not authentic Taoism, and there is no big backing, it is difficult to have the opportunity to become an immortal or ascend to the upper world. It stands to reason that in this battle between the Xuanmen and the side sect, she should stand firm and side with the side sect without hesitation.
It¡¯s just that although Zheng Dianxian is on good terms with Dugufeng, most of her close friends still tend to be on the Emei side, and the two sides are not equal. What's more, she has been planning for many years. If she wants to take out the treasure of the Guangcheng Golden Ship in the eyes of the Yuanjiang River, she will need a lot of help from Emei. Therefore, in comparison, it is inevitably a little biased towards Emei.
If this kind of attitude were applied to other side sects, Dugu Feng would naturally not bother to pay attention to it. It's just that the relationship between "Yang Yingxue" and Zheng Dianxian is ordinary. Since the soul clone has inherited all the causes and effects of "Yang Yingxue" in her past life, she is the real "Yang Yingxue".
Therefore, Yang Yingxue seemed to have ignored the hints sent by sisters Murong Xian and Murong Zhao. She just looked at the two of them with a half-smile and said, "Sister Zhao'er, sister Xian'er, is your master really in retreat?"
"this¡¡"
Sisters Murong Zhao and Murong Xian were familiar with Yang Yingxue, so they knew her temperament clearly. Now looking at her expression, they naturally understood that their master's excuse had been seen through, and they immediately hesitated and didn't know how to answer.
"That's it, that's it! Xian'er, Zhao'er, please come in Yingxue!"
Just when sisters Murong Zhao and Murong Xian were in a dilemma, a long sigh suddenly came from Kuzhu Temple. After Zheng Dianxian hesitated for a long time, he still couldn't harden his heart and turn Yang Yingxue away. He could only sigh and welcome Yang Yingxue in with a wry smile.
The courtyard of Kuzhu Nunnery is small, elegant and simple. The whole nunnery is made of bamboo rafters and bamboo tiles. In the courtyard that covers an area of ????mu, there are grasses and exotic flowers. There is only one main hall, with side halls and cloud rooms on both sides. They are all bamboo houses with paper windows, which are very elegant and clean.
Yang Yingxue was very familiar with this place and was not polite at the moment. She rushed in as if she were at her own home. Kuzhu Temple is called Anshe, but it is just an ordinary retreat residence for Taoists. There are no statues of immortals or Buddhas enshrined in the temple. There are only medicine stoves and alchemy stoves, Taoist books, musical instruments, swords and some things used by monks.
"When friends come from far away, why don't you just keep the door closed?"
When Yang Yingxue saw Zheng Dianxian coming out to greet him, she couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled, teasing: "I asked myself, "Isn't it true that he is a masculine person, but Dianxian wants to learn from the master?"
Hearing Yang Yingxue's teasing words, sisters Murong Zhao and Murong Xian couldn't help but snicker. Their master calls himself Dianxian, and he usually has a lot of cynical and cynical Dianxian style. But when they met this sister from the Yang family, , it seems that rhetoric has always been at a disadvantage!
Zheng Dianxian calls himself Master Dianren, and his behavior has always been unusual. He has never restrained his disciples with a majestic face, so he didn't care about the snickering of the Murong sisters. He just shook his head and said: "You are not a masculine person, I It¡¯s not like I¡¯m a master. It¡¯s just that you¡¯ve put me in a dilemma!¡±
"What's the trouble?"
Yang Yingxue followed Zheng Dianxian in with a smile, and said casually: "Don't you still remember that I owe you 'Master' a few times? Of course, I don't mind calling you 'Master', but"
Zheng Dianxian couldn't help but laugh. She naturally knew that if the future was to be based on the original destiny, Yang Yingxue should really be her apprentice in this life. It's just that the number of days is unpredictable and unpredictable. People who practice Taoism do not regard longevity as longevity, but only regard Taoism as having no priority, and those who achieve it come first. Comparing her and Yang Yingxue's current cultivation levels, they were pretty much the same.
"The words of master and disciple are nothing but old covenants from the past. Fortunately, you and I have been living in the world of mortals for several lives, and we always have opportunities. Now we can be considered to have achieved something, so why mention the jokes in the past?"
Yang Yingxue¡¯s joking words couldn¡¯t help but bring back some memories of Zheng Dianxian. In a certain life in the past, she and "Yang Yingxue" were both small cultivators struggling on the immortal path. Because they both felt that the path was difficult, they swore to each other that if one of them was destined to meet the Taoist lineage in the future, and the other fell into the mortal world, they would We must lend a helping hand and lead one party back into the Immortal Sect.
It¡¯s just that the old vows are still in my ears, butThe reality has long since changed. Now both parties have their own circumstances and achievements, and they no longer need old friends to support each other. The vows made in the past have lost their meaning of existence and can only be used as witnesses of the friendship between the two parties!
