[Forget envy] Destiny is the life of the king

"Lan Zhan! Lan Zhan, don't sleep anymore, wake up and look at me..."

"Second Brother Lan, listen, I don't want to turn you into a murderous corpse, don't let me walk back to the single-plank bridge, so you have to get better..."

After leaving the inn in Pingxiang in the middle of the night, it has been nearly three hours. Wei Wuxian did not dare to stay for a moment. The injury and the invasion of resentment made Lan Wangji in a coma all the time. Without research, he was completely helpless about it, so he could only hurry on the road halfway, carrying Lan Wangji on his back, while calling him non-stop, hoping to awaken his will.

Wei Wuxian came to a stream, carefully put Lan Wangji down, walked to the river, took a sip, then held the water in his mouth, returned to Lan Wangji's side, and approached him. On the dry lips, he kissed it and poured water into his throat. After confirming that he drank the water, he stood up and walked to the river, pouring it back and forth three times.

Wei Wuxian wiped Lan Wangji's wet lips with his sleeve, and stared fixedly for a moment, Wei Wuxian kind of missed the amber pupils under his eyelids, the soft eyes that always stared at him , but now they are all hidden in the closed eyelids, and they never look at him again.

Wei Wuxian looked away, lowered his head to clean the poisonous blood on Lan Wangji's arm, and put on some clean cloth strips. Although the poison did not spread to other places, it made the entire arm more poisonous. Conspicuously, if the Gu poison invades the bone, even if it can be revived later, this arm may be scrapped, and it will no longer be able to play the piano.

Just as Wei Wuxian was concentrating on bandaging the cloth strips, suddenly there was a sound of stepping on the grass from far to near, slowly approaching them, Wei Wuxian guarded Lan Wangji behind him vigilantly, and shouted sharply. ︰"who is it?"

A woman in white stopped among the bushes not far away, she didn't mind Wei WuXian's unfriendly tone, and said, "Young Master, you've been traveling all night, what's the matter?"

Wei WuXian calmly asked back, "Young girl, what's the point of a night outing in the mountains?"

The woman in white laughed like a ringing bell, and said, "I'm temporarily staying in this mountain this month, and I heard people's voices late at night, so I came to check it out, it's not considered a night tour."

Wei WuXian knew that the woman in white was not malicious, but he didn't let his guard down because of this, saying, "That's really embarrassing, let's go now."

The woman in white didn't stop Wei Wuxian from leaving, but there seemed to be a strange chill in her smiling face, and she said abruptly, "Miaoxi's poison will cause bone-eroding pain at sunrise, sir, don't you worry about the one behind you?"

Wei Wuxian stopped in his tracks, he turned his gaze to the woman in white excitedly, and asked, "May I ask who you are?"

The woman in white had already expected Wei WuXian's reaction, she held her hands in front of her stomach, and said with a casual expression, "Shouldn't you be polite, you should give your name first?"

Wei Wuxian endured his extremely bad mood, bowed his head slightly and saluted and said, "I'm sorry! Gusu Wei Wuxian, this is Lan Wangji."

The woman in white gathered herself together, looked at Wei Wuxian carefully, then softened her attitude a little and said, "The poor nun hugs the mountain looser!"

Wei WuXian thought he heard it wrong, and thought: "Baoshan Sanren? Isn't that the mother's master? But..."

Seeing Wei Wuxian's dumbfounded expression, Baoshan Sanren immediately smiled: "You and I are destined, nephew."

Wei WuXian called out in doubt, "Wait! Is this a fairy mountain?"

Baoshan Sanren shook his head and said, "Mountains are everywhere in China, so why care about the roots?"

Wei Wuxian continued to ask, "Isn't it said that the Sanren of Baoshan are hundreds of years old? You...you..."

Baoshan Sanren put his hands on his face and said with a smile: "With a lifespan of hundreds of years, I can be regarded as a monster. Do you think I look like an old monster?"

The woman in front of her who claimed to be a loose person in Baoshan didn't look like a lunatic, nor did she seem like a liar. In just two sentences, she gave Wei Wuxian a bold and unrestrained impression, like a generation of outstanding chivalrous women from a family, without any doubts. It's not pretentious, but it doesn't look like a hidden world expert at all.

Baoshan Sanren lightly landed on the stream, and the water splashed under her feet. She didn't care about the wet boots and long skirt, and waded step by step, even though Wei Wuxian had a good feeling for her. Impression, but his feet still retreat involuntarily, this is a reflex action hidden in his heart.

Baoshan Sanren stopped, and said very dissatisfied: "Don't retreat! Why are you the same as when you were a child, you retreated when you saw me?"

"When I was young?"

"Stop!" Baoshan Sanren pointed to Lan Wangji, which Wei Wuxian had been carrying, and said, "It's almost dawn, are you sure you don't want to show me how he's doing?"

Wei Wuxian's heart was suddenly grabbed by an invisible hand. He remembered what Baoshan Sanren had said before, that at sunrise, Gu poison would cause bone-eroding pain. He would rather believe it than take the risk, so hurry up Let Baoshan Sanren check on Lan Wangji's condition.

When Baoshan Sanren approached Wei Wuxian, Wei Wuxian could see the face of the person in front of him clearly. Looking closely, he couldn't tell Baoshan Sanren's actual age at all. Her long hair was casually scattered on the ground. On both sides of the shoulders, the skin exposed between the neck looks fairer, the cheeks are long and thin, and the outline is not too prominent, but the small eyebrows and phoenix eyes, the slightly raised mouth shape, is a natural smile just like him .

Baoshan Sanren checked Lan Wangji's pulse, frowned slightly, and took out a long cloth bag from his bosom, which contained dozens of long and short silver needles of different lengths and thicknesses. She didn't think about it, so she chose Several silver needles were taken out, and they were pierced on Lan Wangji's shoulders and several acupuncture points on his back, saying: "It's not good, come with me!"

Wei Wuxian looked at Lan Wangji who was leaning on his shoulder, and followed Baoshan Sanren across the river and the road on the hillside. If we say that they are walking on the road, it is better to say that the mountain opened for them. There is no way to walk on such a hillside, and in the dark environment at night, they went up smoothly all the way, as if they were walking on flat ground, walking very smoothly.

Wei Wuxian admired: "A very deep maze barrier."

Baoshan Sanren didn't respond, she continued walking until she came to a hut, motioned for Wei Wuxian to come in, and said, "Let him rest!"

Wei Wuxian looked up at the sky that was beginning to turn white, and hurried into the house. This thatched hut was extremely simple, with only a small straw couch and a wooden table. Immediately, Xian felt that this Baoshan Loose Man had too casual a request for sleeping.

Wei Wuxian stretched out his hand to straighten the thatch first, and then gently put Lan Wangji down.

At this time, Baoshan Sanren had already closed and sealed all the windows, then lit the oil lamps and said, "It's almost dawn!"

Hearing the crowing of the cock, Wei Wuxian was so frightened that his heart almost jumped out, he held Lan Wangji's hand tightly, and watched his reaction worriedly, and only after confirming that there was no difference did he feel relieved, exhaling again and again to adjust his overly nervous emotions .

After a while, Wei Wuxian looked at Baoshan Sanren who was sitting at the table, looking at him with great interest, and said, "Thank you!"

Baoshan Sanren nodded in satisfaction: "Very good! I also know how to thank you!"

Wei Wuxian asked, "Excuse me, who are you?"

Baoshan Sanren smiled and patted the chair beside him, beckoning him to come and sit, and said, "Didn't I tell you that I am Baoshan Sanren? You have been going up the mountain with me, and you still doubt it. What should I say about you?" Okay? Come, come, sit down and talk, don't be so alienated."

Wei Wuxian didn't go over, he still stayed by Lan Wangji's side, and said, "My mother is a disciple of Baoshan Sanren, in my opinion, you are not my mother's master, how can you be Baoshan Sanren?" Woolen cloth?"

Under the dim light of the oil lamp, Baoshan Sanren showed a little helpless wry smile and said, "This doubt is appropriate. To be precise, "Baoshan Sanren" is a name. When I inherited this name from my master , the memories of the past dynasties will also be passed on together, and they will enjoy hundreds of years of knowledge, so the world has the fallacy that the Sanren of Baoshan are hundreds of years old."

Wei Wuxian boldly asked: "It is said that Baoshan Sanren's hundreds of years of practice can revive human flesh and bones. You must have a way to get rid of Gu poison."

Baoshan Sanren said confidently, "Of course!"

Wei Wuxian was overjoyed: "Can you save Hanguang-jun?"

Baoshan Sanren immediately put away his smiling face and said, "Baoshan Sanren has always been indifferent to the world. I helped you this time because of my sisterhood with your mother, but I have no intention of taking over other things, including resuscitating him. .”

Wei Wuxian jumped up immediately, knelt down in front of Baoshan Sanren, pulled her sleeve and said, "Auntie! Please save Lan Zhan, I can do whatever you want me to do."

Baoshan Sanren raised his eyebrows and said, "A man has gold under his knees, why do you just kneel down casually? And what do you call me?"

Wei WuXian was completely familiar with how to please women, and he called again kindly: "Auntie! You are my mother's senior sister and my auntie, but Auntie is so young and beautiful, graceful, and has a bodhisattva heart. Auntie is kinder."

Baoshan Sanren smiled triumphantly, but he was still unyielding and did not back down, saying: "No matter how sweet you are, it's useless, if you don't save it, you don't save it."

Wei WuXian said, "You helped me just now, and I know that Auntie is a very affectionate person. Although Shimen clearly stated that he would not care about the world after returning home, didn't he also have the heart to save the world? HanGuang-Jun He is a gentleman, always jealous of evil, he is a blessing to the world, isn't it a blessing if you save him?"

Baoshan Sanren was silent for a while, and said calmly: "You know that if you want to get something, you have to pay the corresponding price. Back then, junior brother Xiao Xingchen left and vowed not to return, but he broke his oath and asked Master to save him. Song Lan, the master needs to agree, but the request is that he can never see Song Lan again, but Junior Brother Xiao said that since his eyes are not on his face, he will never see him again. Do you have the same awareness?"

Wei Wuxian glanced back at Lan Wangji, and said, "What do you want?"

Baoshan Sanren held Wei Wuxian's face with his hands, and said, "Yin and Yang are the foundation of the Tao. I am really interested in your aura and resentment. If I say that I want you and want to take you as my disciple, Will you agree?"

Wei Wuxian opened his mouth in astonishment, "Under the Baoshan Gate?"

Baoshan Sanren stood up and said: "We specialize in accepting orphans who have no father or mother, and they are people with open-mindedness and a natural smile. I like you very much. I have asked Master many times to take you back, but I was rejected. It's a pity that Jiang Fengmian took him to Lianhuawu first."

Wei WuXian still knelt on the spot and said, "If I promise you, will you help me save Lan Zhan?"

Baoshan Sanren said: "Don't worry, you have to check it out before making a decision. Although your way of dealing with Gu poison is rough, it is still a good way. You still have time to think about it."

Wei Wuxian raised his head firmly and said, "No need to think about it, as long as you can really save Lan Zhan, I will do what I promise, and I will never hesitate..." He paused, Enduring the thought of wanting to look back: "No way, I really can't help watching him suffer from injury and poison, I can't do anything, I can't help, I won't be able to bear it..."

Baoshan Sanren sighed and said: "I just saw that you have a deep affection for him, so I want you to think carefully. To enter my Taoist school, you need to devote yourself to cultivating the Tao, and you will never go down the mountain. I think you know the consequences, right? "

Wei Wuxian nodded and said, "I know the consequences, but it's okay, I didn't end well in my last life, and I'm not afraid of doing it again."

Baoshan Sanren was not surprised by Wei Wuxian's response, saying: "That is to say, you know that you are unlucky, but you will still go down the mountain and leave me in the end... Sigh, it's really sad. like your mother!"

Wei Wuxian said, "But I have one more request..."

Baoshan Sanren quietly listened to Wei Wuxian's request, and then nodded in agreement. She broke up a pair of lovers cruelly, so how could she not agree to his request?Now that the condition has been fulfilled, she immediately went to fulfill her promise. It took nearly two hours to collect a lot of different herbal decoctions, plus smoke moxibustion and silver needles, and it only took half a day to forget Lan Wangji. machine's Gu poison removal.

The Sanren of Baoshan said: "Although the poison is eliminated, I still need to rest for a long time. I have stayed in this mountain for too long, and I will leave the day after tomorrow. Cherish the time you have left."

Well, for the rest of the time, Wei Wuxian stayed behind almost all day long, staying by Lan Wangji's side all night without sleep, but he still felt that it was not enough, quietly lying on his chest, the faint sandalwood fragrance that originally belonged to him , Now it has been overwhelmed by many kinds of herbs, I feel a sense of loss, so deserted...

It was just dawn, when an unintelligible voice came from outside the house, Baoshan Sanren pulled out a steed horse, and ordered: "It's time to hurry!"

Wei Wuxian sighed, reluctantly got up from Lan Wangji, tidied up the wound on his hand, then went out to put Lan Wangji on the horse, and when he got on the horse himself, he stabilized himself and grabbed the Ma rein, he said to Baoshan Sanren worriedly, "Are you sure there is no problem?"

Baoshan Sanren said indifferently: "If you dare to doubt me again, get off the horse immediately, and I will plant the poison back."

Wei Wuxian said in a panic, "Don't, don't... I'm just talking."

Baoshan Sanren said angrily, "I am your master, show me some respect."

Wei Wuxian said, "I haven't formally apprenticed to a teacher yet..." Seeing Baoshan Sanren's stare, he immediately changed his face and said respectfully: "Yes! Master!"

Baoshan Sanren said: "After sending it back to the unknown place in Yunshen, put it down and leave, understand?"

Wei Wuxian nodded, "I see."

As soon as Wei Wuxian tightened his foot on the reins, he drove the horse away.
