Lin Shu didn't know.

He said, "I don't know."

"It seems fellow daoist doesn't know much about the immortal way." Mr. Meng said, "But fellow daoist, you live with little Fenghuang, so you must already know something about the Phoenix saber technique."

Lin Shu: "Yes."

"Phoenix Mountain Villa has only one set of internal skills, but many saber techniques. Among them, 'Yaochi Buer' and 'Zifu Wushuang' are complicated and beautiful, suitable for viewing, so they are very popular among female disciples." Lingyun Nine Styles ', 'Eleven knives in the missing month', etc., but not the case."

Lin Shu nodded.

There is no distinction between men and women in sword techniques such as "Lingyun Nine Styles" and "Mid Moon Eleven Knives". If male disciples practice it, there seems to be no problem - but Phoenix Villa does not accept any male disciples, even if they are If the child of Maimai is a boy, he will also be sent outside to be educated, and does not belong to the Phoenix Villa.

"Lingyun's Nine Forms are fierce, and Queyue's Eleven Swords are terrific. They are all famous swordsmanship, but—" Mr. Meng said word by word, "Phoenix swordsmanship and internal strength cannot be practiced by men, even if they are direct descendants. If the younger generation is a man, at most they will learn some methods of formation, and the 'Nirvana' you saw on the Huandang Mountain is one of them."

Lin Shu was puzzled and asked, "Why?"

Mr. Meng smiled and asked, "Is Little Phoenix good-tempered?"

Lin Shu: "Not good."

——Although he has been very kind to him these days, in fact, his overall temper is still very bad, such as when facing Xiao Lingyang.

Mr. Meng said: "It is easy to break if it is too rigid."

Too rigid and easy to break.

Lin Shu thought for a while.

Indeed, the mind and saber techniques of Phoenix Mountain Villa are all based on the Qi of Lihuo, among the five elements and eight trigrams, the nature of fire is the strongest.However, the sword techniques of the villa, such as the Lingyun Nine Styles and the Moonless Eleven Knife, are more straightforward and fierce, extremely fierce, without any sense of balance, hardness and softness, and even completely incompatible with the word "soft". relation.

Mr. Meng seemed to see that he had understood a little bit, and continued: "Many years ago, when the Phoenix Villa was first established, it was not that there were no male disciples. The villa did not strictly prohibit the leakage of exercises, and there were some men who practiced the Phoenix Saber outside. It is a precedent for the law. However, without exception, if you cultivate to a certain level, you will go mad, and the state will fall, and the body will explode and die. The reason is the four characters of "too rigid and easy to break."

Lin Shu was really surprised, and continued to listen to Mr. Meng.

"Heaven and earth make people, since they are under the way of heaven, they must follow the principle of the operation of the way of heaven. Men and women, my immortal way treats them equally, but among the five elements of yin and yang, men and women are different, after all, there are slight differences in physique, root, and heart."

Lin Shu nodded.

Mr. Meng continued: "Men belong to Yang. If you practice the Phoenix Mountain Villa exercises again, the fierce qi will combine and oppose each other. On the one hand, you will enter the realm quickly, your foundation will be unstable, and you will easily go crazy. On the other hand, your temperament will be affected, impulsive and impetuous. Violent and bloodthirsty, he will lose his mind and go astray in a short time. The phoenix sword technique is like a sword that has been tempered by fire. It is brittle and easy to break. It must be touched with cold water to be invincible. Only women can control the cultivation technique."

Lin Shu digested it for a while, and felt that the mystery of this theory was no less than the young master's argument about "Da Dao".

Mr. Meng smiled and said: "If things are too prosperous, they should be killed. This is the principle of mutual generation and mutual transformation of all things in the world. Fellow Daoist, do you understand?"

Lin Shu nodded: "Understood."

"Of course, there may not be any men in the world who can practice the Phoenix Saber Technique. However, one can imagine the concentration of mind it requires, and it is not difficult to imagine the hardships it will endure. Wealth and glory are like cooking oil in a raging fire, sharing half of the river and mountains with the royal family, you need to know how to protect yourself wisely, this is a mortal matter, so let’s not talk about it.”

Lin Shu understood the truth of what Mr. Meng said, but why Mr. Meng said such words to him, he still couldn't figure it out.

Fortunately, Mr. Meng didn't have the magic stick habit of "you go back and understand it yourself". After he finished speaking, he said: "Daoist friend, since you understand this truth, you should think about your own path. Passing hard is easy to break. It is very easy to die, and the cold will hurt you. Your way is empty and silent. When you reach the end of the way and the high place is extremely cold, whether there will be demons and obstacles in the way, and how to eliminate them and make choices, you should prepare early. That's what I'm worried about."

Looking into Mr. Meng's eyes, Lin Shu felt the earnest love and care, and warmed his heart, and said, "I will."

Mr. Meng said: "Then I can rest assured."

After talking about this, Mr. Meng asked about some trivial matters in life, such as what he was not used to, etc. After asking, Lin Shu said goodbye to him and left the dreamland.

After going out, he sat cross-legged on the bamboo bed, thinking that he had passed the examination of his master, and he had benefited a lot from the conversation just now.

And as for Mr. Meng's last warning——

He thought of the 20 years in his last life that he was like a lonely ghost, and then thought about the demons he saw in the maze of the illusory mountain, and felt that his state of mind was indeed not solid, and he needed to hone it again. A question worth considering.

He decided to go to Zangshu Pavilion to find some books about mood and inner demons, and see how to sharpen his mood.

When I think of Zangshu Pavilion, I think of the dining hall.

This morning, Ling Fengxiao said that after Mr. Meng's school examination in the afternoon, he would be fine, and asked him to have dinner together.

Thinking of this, Lin Shu got off the bed, put on the white fox fur cape hanging by the bed, and walked out the door.

——This cloak was originally the one my cousin used to pack him, and the young lady used another sable.However, in an instant, the cousin and the young miss became one person, so Ling Fengxiao naturally stopped trying to hide it and gave him both.

When Lin Shu thought that when Ling Fengxiao went out, he even prepared two cloaks to hide his eyes and ears, and felt that this person was really hateful.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw the eldest lady sitting in the bamboo corridor outside the atrium.

In winter, there is a light snowfall in the mountains, and many small ice crystals fall in the air, and the bamboo leaves are covered with a layer of frost-like snow, which is very beautiful.

And Ling Fengxiao wore a big red feather cloak, and held a red umbrella at an angle. Her black hair was untied, and she draped it down at will, making her very conspicuous in the snowy sky.

The man was holding the cat, looking up at the flying snow in front of the porch, he was in a daze for some reason, when he saw him open the door, he smiled and said, "You're here."

Lin Shu stepped forward, Ling Fengxiao got up and gave him half of the umbrella.

"I wanted to ask you to go to the dining hall, but I couldn't. Just now Cangmin sent a letter saying that he had few exams. After practicing martial arts these days, he dug out many bamboo rat holes in Biyutian and caught more than a dozen of them. Fat Bamboo Rat, invited us, Yue Ruohe, Yue Ruoyun and the cat to roast bamboo rats to eat."

Before Lin Shu could speak, the cat pricked up its ears, raised its head from Ling Fengxiao's arms, and let out a quick "meow".

——It seems that I really want to eat.

Lin Shudao: "A dozen or so are probably not enough for Cang Min to eat alone."

Ling Fengxiao said: "I think so too, but he said that each one weighs four or five catties, and a dozen of them add up to more than 100 catties. After bloodletting and roasting, there will be dozens of catties left. Maybe Cang Min can eat it." If you are full, you can leave one or two for us."

Lin Shu smiled.

After laughing, thinking of the brothers and sisters of the Yue family going too, he asked, "Does he recognize Yue Ruohe?"

Ling Fengxiao gave a "huh" and said: "Nine sects often communicate with each other. Cang Min was born in the Henglian sect, and he is a family friend with Rumengtang. He must be a good friend with the brothers and sisters of the Yue family."

They went to the place that Cang Min had agreed upon, which was in an abandoned pavilion with no decorations in the bamboo sea.

The brothers and sisters of the Yue family were already there, making a fire together, setting up shelves, and concentrating on playing with a bunch of bottles and cans, preparing the baking ingredients.

And those fat bamboo rats have already been processed, stringed up one by one, neatly piled up and marinated together.

Seeing them coming, Cang Min greeted: "Junior Brother Lin, Senior Qing Yuan, you are here! Miss, you are here too!"

The eldest lady said: "Since you invited me, why didn't I come?"

Cang Min scratched his head: "I'm just testing..."

Yue Ruoyun patted him, and said with a smile: "Lin Shu and the cat are here, so I said that the eldest lady will come."

Everyone has arrived, Cang Min's seasoning has been prepared, and the fire is raging, heating up the entire pavilion. Regardless of the simplicity of the pavilion, they sat down on the cattail mats on the ground and began to roast bamboo rats.

Ling Fengxiao didn't let Lin Shu roast it by himself, but skewered his other one, and the two roasted it together.

The fat and thin bamboo rat meat is gradually roasted on the fire until it is sizzling, browned and fragrant, and with the seasonings brushed on from time to time, the fragrance becomes more and more attractive.

Cat: "Meow."

"Meow."

"Meow."

Ling Fengxiao: "Wait."

Cat: "Meow."

Lin Shu looked at the cat and saw the hostility in the cat's eyes.

The cat must think that the eldest lady roasted the bamboo rat, and probably won't give it the first bite.

Fortunately, Cang Min baked it first and enshrined it to the senior gods on land.

The cat purred with satisfaction and began to eat the mouse.

After a while, Ling Fengxiao's was ready, and the browned and tender rat meat was covered with a layer of seasoning, and sesame seeds and pepper powder were added, and the aroma was overflowing in an instant.

The eldest lady took out a sharp small silver knife, divided the rat meat, and ate it with Lin Shu.

Cang Min talked about the deliciousness of bamboo rat meat, such as "bamboo rats eat bamboo and have a fragrance", "bamboo rats weigh four to five catties, are suitable in size, moderate in fat and thin, and are suitable for roasting", "bamboo rats Eating bamboo rats in the sea has a special flavor." Yun Yun.

The rest of the people are familiar with each other, they are busy with exams these days, it is rare to relax, and they have a lot to talk about, so chatting while grilling, it is much more lively than those dinners in the dining hall.

Just as it was bustling with activity, footsteps suddenly sounded in the distance. After entering, I saw a person walking on the snow, holding a lantern in one hand and holding something in the other.

No matter how close it is, it seems to be Xie Zishe, the elder sister of Confucianism and Taoism.

I saw her wearing a half-worn gray crane cloak, holding a lantern in one hand and a wine jar in the other, and carrying a bookcase on her back.

"I wonder who is playing around here, so it's you," Xie Zishe put down the wine jar, and said with a smile, "Roasting rats on a snowy night, so elegant."

Yue Ruoyun said: "Are you Senior Sister Xie Zishe?"

Xie Zishe said, "It's right here."

Yue Ruoyun immediately said happily: "I've heard about Senior Sister's name for a long time!"

Xie Zishe said: "I like your Bamboo Sea in Biyutian. I often come to this abandoned pavilion to drink and study, but today I let you take the lead."

While speaking, he looked at Ling Fengxiao.

Ling Fengxiao said: "Coincidentally."

"Since it's just a coincidence, I'll come and get involved." Xie Zishe said with a smile: "It just so happens that you have meat, and I brought wine."

Cang Min wondered, "How did you get the wine?"

Xie Zishe said: "Confucianism and Taoism do not strictly guard against drinking."

Yue Ruohe said: "Then can we go to Confucianism and Taoism to buy wine?"

"If there is a way, of course."

Cang Min was very happy: "Senior Sister Xie, you have eaten meat with us today, so you can be our door."

Xie Zishe laughed loudly and said, "Then I won't be polite."

Lin Shu took a piece of meat fed by the eldest lady, ate it slowly, and looked at the elder sister of the Confucianism and Taoism.

She has clear eyebrows, looks a little aloof, but has an approachable personality, and soon chatted and laughed with the three of them.

And the next moment, he saw that Xie Zishe also looked over, looked at him, smiled with his lips curled up, and raised his glass from a distance: "Why doesn't this junior drink?"

Lin Shu felt that she was looking for something, so she didn't intend to take care of her.

Then I heard the eldest lady say calmly: "I won't allow him to drink."

Xie Zishe took a sip and said, "You actually know how to hurt people."

The eldest lady picked out a thin bone with a silver knife, skewered two pieces of roasted tender meat, handed it to Lin Shu, and said: "When you want to hurt someone, you will naturally."

The author has something to say: Big Sister: Let me see how unique this little thing is.

Lin Shu: Peaceful.
