The devil is me

In the blink of an eye in the sky, 100 years in the world.Emerald green sprouts, spring hair on earth.

The times are different, Bingling Lake is getting warmer every year, and this year it is full of spring. In March and April, there are birds roosting late, biting small fish, and holding water plants. The lake is rippling and sunny.

An old monk and a young monk are studying here while traveling to collect herbs.

The old monk was getting old, and his back was hunched, carrying a big basket, while the young monk was still young, carrying a small basket, jumping around and foolishly stepping on the shadow of the old monk.

Just now the old monk told him about the chapter on soul in the book.

This thing can't be seen clearly, can't be touched, the little monk seems to understand half of it, biting the blade of grass.

"Master, what should we do if the souls are scattered and it is difficult to gather together?"

The old monk slowed down and looked at Bingling Lake.

"There is still room for gathering scattered souls with living Buddha relics. A long time ago, there was a great blind monk who sat in meditation by the Bingling Lake every day. After 50 years, he became a real fruit. After his death, his disciple obeyed his master's last wish, cremated his body and took it out. The practice of relics restores a living being and saves it.”

"How to transcend?"

"Set up the super-duplication formation, and recite the super-delivery scriptures."

"Who is the one to be saved?"

The young monk blinked and asked, and the old monk pushed aside a piece of soft willow branch.

"A person who is notorious, but pure and flawless."

Who in the ten miles and eight villages does not know that there are beauties in Donggezhuang.

The lady proprietress of Fulu Winery is the brightest of the pearls, and people often come here to witness the beauty.

That evening, a young young man entered the restaurant with a sword in his arms. In this small restaurant, all the waiters, cooks, and proprietress are women.The young man put down his sword, a girl ran over to wipe the table and pour tea, when she raised her head, she was about to order food when her eyes suddenly stopped moving.

This young man is handsome, his eyebrows are like willow leaves just blooming, his eyes are light like stars, the corners of his eyes are slightly raised, he is dressed in white, with a bamboo green belt, his hair is gilded by the sunset, and his hairpin is made of sandalwood. Lazily holding half of her bun, although she is wearing a sword, she has a gentle and noble temperament.

Seeing that the girl was only thirteen or fourteen years old, Shaoxia pursed his lips and smiled: "What's wrong?"

"No...it's nothing." The girl blushed and lowered her head to ask him what wine and food he wanted.

"A plate of beef, and a pot of your best wine." The young man put the money on the table and looked at the busy restaurant, "Are you all girls in charge?"

"Really?" The girl raised her head and became proud, "Girls in Donggezhuang are very precious, even if you come from ten miles or eight villages to ask for marriage, you can't get married."

"The proprietress doesn't want to get married, so she opened a shop by herself, so we don't have to worry about food and clothing."

Seeing her radiant spirit, Shaoxia also smiled, his eyelashes drooping down like feather fans.

"I want to ask you something." Shaoxia asked, "Are there any strange people around here?"

The girl looked him up and down: "Are you here to hunt at night? We don't have ghosts here. Buddhas and monks will take care of them. How can there be ghosts and monsters who dare to run rampant."

The young man shook his head: "I don't hunt at night. I'm here to find someone."

The girl tossed her shofar braids, and suddenly patted the table: "There is also a strange person."

"How to say?"

"I heard from the old people who went hunting in the mountains that there was a cave on the nearby mountain. Sometimes they saw a fire inside. At this time, there would be a strange man wandering around, and he didn't know what he was waiting for. Someone asked him, and he said that he was waiting for a cave. Old man."

"But in this wilderness, how can there be any old friends?"

Hearing this, Shaoxia stood up, picked up his sword and hit the curtain to leave.

The girl shouted: "Your wine is served, why don't you drink it and leave?"

The young man turned his head, picked up the wine, and threw down some broken silver to buy the porcelain white pot.

"I'll take it away."

He walked up the mountain, familiar with the road.

It was an unbelievably fine day, and his flagon and sword jingled.As the evening sun set, the rosy light in the sky faded, and the mountain cherry blossomed all over the mountain, pink and white, in clusters, the petals fell on his shoulders, and the white clothes were decorated with petals, making him as bright as a pale moon.

The shadow of the moon was just rising, and the depths of the rocks were dark. There was a figure half lying on the rocks in front of the cave, drinking wine against the moon.

Originally, there was no such a big rock here, but after years of wind and rain, it rolled down from nowhere, like a beauty's couch, shining brightly under the moon.

He approached, his heart was beating fast, endless fragrance, pushing him, looking for someone far away with the faint fragrance.

His face was revealed under the moonlight. It was a young man, handsome and tight, with a red string tied to his ponytail, sweeping his clean neck with his head up and sipping wine.

When the wine is empty, pour it again, dripping down the throat.He leaned back and forth, unable to drink any more, his throat rolled, and he licked his lips lightly to satisfy his craving.

The young man stopped in his tracks, the wind rolled up his clothes, he raised the flagon in his hand and asked.

"Want to try my wine?"

The man turned his face, a pair of black pearl-like eyes, just like the eyes he had glimpsed many, many years ago, across the distance of three lives, on the Great Barren Mountain through the blood mist and flames.
