Daoist Abandoned Wisdom

Back at the barracks, the bonfire was already lit, and the soldiers gathered around the fire to barbecue.Tao Xinian took a closer look, in addition to the mutton that Mu Lang mentioned, there was also roasted whole deer.

Mu Lang ordered the soldiers to get Xiao Hei a large pot of raw mutton, he lowered his head and ate it happily, and came to pester Tao Xinian again.Abo sat by the fire far away from Tao Xinian, staring at the roasted whole lamb in front of him without turning his eyes.Tao Xinian knew that Abo was afraid of dogs, so he didn't keep Xiao Hei too much. After he finished eating, he patted his head and sent him away.

Su also handed Abo a small string of grilled mutton kebabs. Hearing that the dog had been sent away, Abo got up immediately and ran towards Tao Xinian.Su waved the meat skewer in his hand, and said, "Hey, little fairy, don't you want the meat skewer?"

Abo made a face at him, and said, "I went to the priest's place, I don't care for such a small meat skewer!"

Su Huanteng stood up and said, "Then I'll go to Taoist Priest Tao to sit there too! Taoist Priest Tao asked me to accompany you so I'm so far away from him! You really don't know good from bad!"

Su also caught a glimpse of Yuan Yao who was giving Tao Xinian venison a look at him, his eyes were a little cold, he sat down quickly, with his back to them, and ate as if nothing had happened.

The little soldier beside him asked in a low voice: "Su Daochang, who is that Taoist priest? General Yuan treats him like he treats his family members. Is he more powerful than you, Daoist Su?" In Xiaobing's eyes Written full of admiration, Fang Shidao is always very mysterious and powerful to ordinary people.

Su thought for a while, Daoist Tao, he is naturally General Yuan's favorite person, he is not stupid, can't he see it?But when the words came to his mouth, he always felt sour, he just said: "I have known them for a long time, good friends, I just met them not long ago."

Tao Xinian ate several pieces of venison, Abo came over, but Su Huan didn't.He looked back at Su, and saw that he was having a good chat with a soldier with his back to them, so he stopped calling him.

Yun Sheng handed Tao Xinian a bowl of water, and Yuan Yao and A Bai respectively, saying, "You're thirsty, the one over there just boiled, drink it when it's cold."

Tao Xinian took the water and asked, "Yun Sheng, are you still used to eating it? It's all meat. I just bought some fruits at the market, take them out and eat them."

Tao Xinian noticed that Yun Sheng ate very little meat along the way, and if there were vegetarian dishes, he would definitely eat vegetarian dishes.

Yun Sheng smiled and said: "Fortunately, I eat less, eating meat is more filling than vegetarian. I'll wash the fruit and bring it for you to eat."

After inspecting the barracks, Mu Lang sat down next to them and asked, "How is it? Is the taste okay? This deer was called by a few soldiers today. It doesn't happen every day. It's good luck for you to come across it." .”

"It's delicious, thank you General Mu for the hospitality." Tao Xinian replied, and went to pick up the leg of lamb that Yuan Yao brought him.

Mu Lang looked at Tao Xinian, and said, "Xiu Yuan, I never thought you would have such a few powerful Taoists under your command, who would solve the trouble as soon as they took action. Next time I return to Luoyang, I have to find the Queen Mother too." Discuss and discuss, go to the Taoist temple to pick a few who have practiced well, and keep them in the barracks, just in case."

"He is my friend." Yuan Yao said.

Mu Lang nodded.He could tell that Yuan Yao was unusual to Tao Taoist priest.He had never seen Yuan Yao take care of anyone like this. In his memory, Yuan Yao was quite indifferent to others, so he and a few children from aristocratic families who entered the barracks at the same time could talk to him a few more words.There are very few people he considers friends.

Tao Xinian drank half a bowl of water, ate some fruit to relieve his boredom, warmed his hands, and looked up at the sky.I saw the bright moon in the sky, illuminating the entire night extremely brightly.Only then did he remember that today seems to be the sixteenth day of September, the day when the moon is full.It has been a month since they set off from Luoyang.He yawned, feeling sleepy.

Seeing that he was tired, Yuan Yao asked Mu Lang where they lived. An hour later, Tao Xinian shivered after taking a bath, and got into the warm kang to keep warm, feeling extremely comfortable.There were still a few vacant rooms in the barracks, so they lived separately, and Ah Bo followed him.

"Your hair! Wipe it!" Ah Bo yelled, handing him a dry towel.

Tao Xinian wiped his hair, probably because he was fed up, but he didn't want to sleep right now.When his hair was almost dry, he put on his clothes again and tied his hair casually.When he came back, Yuan Yao was talking to Mu Lang, and he didn't know if he had finished talking.He took the jade pendant from the box, planning to give it to Yuan Yao if he met Yuan Yao and no one else was present.

"Going out again?" Abo sat at the end of the bed, and had already changed back into the form of a fairy.

"Well, I'll just go out for a walk, and I'll come back right away if I have nothing to do."

He went out, surprised that although the wind outside was strong, it seemed to be a little less than after noon.The night watchmen in the barracks whispered around the bonfire, and Yuan Yao and Mu Lang disappeared beside the fire.He looked at the next room, the lights were not on, and Yuan Yao didn't come back.

He walked a few steps outside and asked a soldier. He said he saw General Mu talking to General Yuan on a hillside not far away.Tao Xinian walked up to the high place and soon saw Yuan Yao, but Mu Lang had already left.The timing is perfect!

"Ayao, why don't you go back to bed so late?" Tao Xinian covered half of his face in a scarf, only showing a pair of bright peach blossom eyes.

"Not sleepy yet, seeing the beautiful moonlight, I stayed for a while longer."

Yuan Yao put the jug in his hand aside, and the two sat down in the withered grass, with their backs to the camp, and their faces to the valley and the bright moon.

"General Mu is gone?"

"Well, I just talked about the past with him. It has been almost eight years since he and I entered the barracks at the same time."

"Ayao, you don't like being a soldier, don't you? If you resign, what do you want to do?" Tao Xinian asked suddenly.

Yuan Yao hesitated for a moment, and said: "My ancestors were all born immediately, and it should be the same in my generation. It was not my wish to become an official in the court. Now I am the only one left in the family, and I don't want any fame and fortune. I just want to live in peace, I want to walk around..."

The corner of Tao Xinian's mouth curled up into a smile, hidden under the thick scarf, Yuan Yao probably didn't see it.He thought, if Ah Yao resigned, he would be able to follow him.They are in Luoyang, or they are going to Nanliang, they can go anywhere.They can travel all over the famous mountains and rivers, and he also wants to take them to Luofu Mountain for a walk, the scenery there is really beautiful.

He took out the jade pendant from the bag, and stuffed the hot jade pendant into Yuan Yao's left palm.Yuan Yao was stunned, and looked at the object in his hand. The white jade was crystal clear, shining warmly under the moonlight, and he knew it was a good piece of jade at a glance.

Tao Xinian pulled down the scarf, exposed his face, and said, "For you, I've been thinking about what to give you, after much deliberation, this jade pendant is the right one."

"Why did you give me such an expensive gift?"

Yuan Yao's light brown eyes stared blankly at him, Tao Xinian suddenly felt like giving a token of love, under the moonlight, he blushed slightly.

"Also... There is no special reason, so I can give it away if I want to. Don't refuse to accept it! Otherwise, I will be angry."

Yuan Yao held the warm jade pendant in his palm, and embraced Tao Xinian.

"Thank you, I really don't know what gift to give in return."

Tao Xinian knocked his chin on Yuan Yao's shoulder, thinking that it would be good to just give yourself to me.

He finally figured it out. If he can't marry a wife in this life, it would be great to have a close friend by his side.After picking up Yuan Yao in the snow that day, he counted as a peach blossom, maybe this peach blossom is Yuan Yao?
