The tide rises and rises, looking towards Kunlun

After Yang Xiao finished his breakfast, he went back to the wing room to pack his bags.Yu Jiaolong didn't have any luggage, so she just put on the coat that Yang Xiao had given her earlier, tied up a Taoist bun indiscriminately, and followed Yang Xiao down the mountain.When I met Wudang disciples along the road, no one looked sideways and asked them.

He couldn't ride a horse down the mountain, so Yang Xiao used lightness kung fu to walk, Yu Jiaolong followed slowly, the two of them were one in front of the other, and they never separated.Yang Xiao thought that Yujiaolong was much lighter than ordinary people, so naturally he didn't need to use much effort to hike the mountain road, the root cause was the same as his lightness kung fu.

When the two of them reached the flat road below the mountain, the sun was already high, and after a short rest in the tea shed, they bought two horses to start their journey.Seeing that Yu Jiaolong can easily control the horse, Yang Xiao didn't say much.At first, he was worried that Yu Jiaolong would not be able to endure hardships and would inevitably be tired on the road, but now it is better.

After walking for half a day, Yang Xiao chose an open place to dismount and rest.He took out the jug of dry food from his bag, and asked Yu Jiaolong, "You didn't eat or drink at the tea stall at noon, so drink some water and eat some dry food now."

Jade Jiaolong had already folded the willow stick in his hands, playing with it and said: "You just need to take care of your own stomach, I can eat every meal, or I can not eat or drink for days, don't worry about me."

Seeing this, Yang Xiao ate and drank on his own, without thinking about anything else.

Yu Jiaolong played with willow sticks for a while, then suddenly stood in the middle of the road, spread his arms, raised his head and took a deep breath.Turning to Yang Xiao with a sweet smile: "Mr. Yang, I know there is a hot spring not far from here, let's rest there tonight."

When Yang Xiao thought about it, he didn't see any hot springs nearby.

Yujiaolong found out what he was thinking, and continued: "Twenty miles ahead of here, there will be three to five miles to the west. You people always want to rest, and we will rest at the hot spring. For you It doesn't matter if you go on your way tomorrow."

Yang Xiao nodded in agreement.

"Mr. Yang, at the hot spring, I have one more thing I want to ask for your help."

Yang Xiao didn't know why.

Yu Jiaolong pointed to his head and said: "I want to ask Mr. Yang to comb my hair, but I can't do it myself."

It was only then that Yang Xiao realized that Yu Jiaolong tied her hair in a random bun because she didn't know how to comb her hair, so she thought she was a different kind and didn't care about her clothes.Then he agreed.

"What do you usually do, Miss Yu?"

"I saw other people's hair combed beautifully, so I asked them to comb it for me. In places where there are no people in the mountains, I just comb it by myself."

Yang Xiao laughed in his heart, no wonder she wore a nondescript bun when she first met her, and I don't know who helped her comb it randomly or she did it like someone else.

After resting, the two got on their horses again, and after a while they came to a fork in the road, Yang Xiao let Yu Jiaolong go ahead.After less than three miles, there was indeed a hot spring in front of us, which was a hot spring.But it is relatively hidden, and there is no one around.Yang Xiao looked around and felt that he could spend the night here.

"Miss Yu has been here before?"

"Never."

"Then how do you know there is a hot spring here?"

"I can feel the heat here from a distance. I also feel that it will be cold tomorrow without the sun." After speaking, he took off his shoes and jumped into the hot spring.

This Wangquan water is not big, just enough for Yu Jiaolong to turn over.

Yang Xiao didn't have time to avoid suspicion in the future, so he turned around in embarrassment, unloaded the horse's luggage, put the horse on the grass, called it back after a while, and tied it up.

This time, Yujiaolong has had all the fun, propping his chin with his hands, lying on the edge of the rock and shouting: Mr. Yang, Mr. Yang, come and soak in the hot spring to relieve fatigue. "

Yang Xiao walked a little closer with his back on his back, and said, "No need, Miss Yu wipes Yang's coat first, so as not to catch a cold."

"No, I have my own way."

After speaking, he jumped out of the water like a fish, turned around, and landed firmly in front of Yang Xiao.Yang Xiao was so frightened that he quickly turned his head away.

Yu Jiaolong reached out and moved Yang Xiao's head over, Lang Lang said, "Look!"

Suddenly his whole body trembled like sifting chaff, and the water drops fluttered off. Yang Xiao was so close, but only a few drops fell on his face, and he never used his hands to cover it.

Jade Jiaolong shook for a while as if enjoying it, and sure enough, his clothes and hair were all dry.He proudly asked Yang Xiao, "How? How?"

Yang Xiao saw her throwing water like a dog, it was really funny, but he didn't want to express it.He could only suppress a smile and said, "Miss Yu is really clever."

Heart thought: She must have learned this from those animals in the forest.

Yu Jiaolong was even more happy when he heard the words, he giggled, his face was also flushed, looking innocent.She didn't say anything else, but went straight to the horse, took out a water bottle from her bag and drank a couple of sips, took out a fire bag and gathered a pile of firewood, put on Yang Xiao's coat, lay down beside the fire, and soon fell into a dream.

Yang Xiao hesitated for a moment beside the hot spring, then quietly took off his coat and immersed himself in the hot spring.

At first, he turned his head back from time to time to check on the movement of Yu Jiaolong, but when he saw that Yu Jiaolong was sleeping deeply, he no longer hesitated.He also comforted himself: She has been in the world for a long time, so she should know how to defend against men and women.

After soaking comfortably in the hot spring, Yang Xiao suddenly became playful, and shook like a jade dragon sifting chaff a few times, but his hair was still wet, so he had to exercise obediently, using his internal force to force out the moisture on his body.After getting dressed, he picked up some firewood and piled it beside the fire before crossing his legs to exercise his energy and refresh his mind.

It was just dawn the next day.Yu Jiaolong shook Yang Xiao's arm to ask him to comb his hair.Yang Xiao never brought a comb with him when he went out, so he wrapped his fingers around Yu Jiaolong's hair and tied it up familiarly.

Yu Jiaolong sat cross-legged with his back to Yang Xiao, but he seemed unable to calm down, swaying left and right, hissing and crying out for pain from time to time.Yang Xiao had no choice but to slow down his movements, but there was a smile in his heart.Thinking of when Yang Buhui first came to Siwangfeng, Yang Xiao felt sorry for his daughter and wished he could be by his side every day.Every day, he would go to Yang Buhui's room early, wake her up, and even do the small things of combing her hair and washing her face.Yang Buhui is also like the Jade Flood Dragon, he is too awkward to sit still.Later, Yang Buhui grew up a little bit, and with the distinction between beauty and ugliness, he began to dislike his father's rustic hair, and loved to toss about himself more.Little did he know that it took a great joy from Yang Xiao's heart.

Finally finished combing her hair bun, Yu Jiaolong couldn't wait to run to the side of the spring to look at the water surface, and saw that Yang Xiao had combed her buns like two little girls, looking extremely childish.Can't help laughing: "Mr. Yang, didn't Master Zhang tell you? I have passed my 22nd birthday in the world. I have been this old since I can remember, and I am not a few years younger than you. You treat me as a Children coax. But, for the sake of being pretty, I won't punish you."

And Yang Xiao was immersed in missing his beloved daughter, so he didn't continue what Yu Jiaolong said.Just laughed it off.

After Yang Xiao ate some dry food and water, he prepared his horse for the journey.Yu Jiaolong didn't procrastinate either, and quickly rode his horse to keep up.The two had become acquainted with each other just now, and the atmosphere was much more relaxed, so they walked forward side by side.Yang Xiao picked up the topic just now and asked: "If someone made you unhappy in the past, would you punish him?"

Yu Jiaolong replied: "No real punishment. In the mountains, although I have never used any means, the tree and vine spirits are afraid of me and never make things difficult for me. When I go to a place with many people, if someone makes me unhappy, I will Then I got angry on my own, and those people automatically stayed away, and I don't know why."

"Apart from your perception of heat and cold, do you have any means?"

"What means?"

Yang Xiao thought for a while about what he saw in the rivers and lakes, and said: "For example, taking things from the air, turning stones into gold, touching bones to tell fortunes, attracting souls and so on?"

"I have never used these before, so I don't know if it will be possible. I only rely on my own thoughts. A few years ago, I was only thinking about finding out my origin. Knowing my origin, I rushed to the famous mountains and rivers in the world to look for experts. I never stopped when I saw good scenery on the road. But I always came back disappointed.” He stuck out his little tongue while speaking. "When they saw me like this, some of them were frightened and kept reciting the name of the Dharma, which was very boring. Gradually, I also felt tired. After meeting Master Zhang, my heart was even more free of worries. Go anywhere with me."

Seeing her innocent face and clear eyes like a gurgling stream, Yang Xiao felt much happier.

Jade Jiaolong said again: "There is a lot of predestined relationship between heaven and earth. I was born in the sky, so I have a chance. There is really no need to disturb others."

Yang Xiao thought to himself: If an eminent monk who has entered into samadhi confesses such a statement, I would call him an out-of-the-world human being.It is really embarrassing for Yu Jiaolong to say these words.Because others can't hurt her, she never intended to hurt others.And when the opportunity comes, I don't know what kind of cause and effect she will experience.I want to tell her the Buddhist method of accumulating good fortune, but I feel that I am a bit overconfident when I say it from the mouth of an ordinary person.

"Ah, by the way, when I first met you, you said you were the left envoy of the Ming Cult. What is the Ming Cult?" Yu Jiaolong asked.

Yang Xiao then roughly talked about the martial arts sects and church gangs in the world.At first, he was afraid that she would not understand, but Yu Jiaolong understood it rather quickly.Asked again:

"You have brought together so many congregants, how can you lead them as one?"

Yang Xiao said solemnly: "My Ming religion's sacred flame has been passed on for hundreds of years, and now I only take it as my duty to drive out the Tartars and restore our Han people."

"Oh, that's interesting. You know that the world will be divided for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time. God has his own decree. It is not easy to keep yourself in the world of mortals and follow the good. Why use the power of ants to defy the destiny?"

Yang Xiao said: "There is a definite number in the sky, and it depends on man's will. I and other mortals only have a lifespan of dozens of years. If I just ignore myself and do nothing, wouldn't I come to this world for nothing!"

After all, thinking of Yu Jiaolong's background is different after all, he can't force her to understand.He smiled and said, "In Miss Yu's eyes, Yang may be a mediocre person. But for the sake of Mingjiao, Yang will give up her own life at all costs."

Yang Xiao's words before Yu Jiaolong really didn't take it to heart, but when Yang Xiao said that he would not hesitate to sacrifice his life, he began to understand Yang Xiao's persistence.Human life is so fragile, and someone who is able to disregard his own life should indeed have something to respect.

So following Yang Xiao's train of thought, he said, "Only by obeying one's own heart can one be invincible and not get lost in the chaos."

Hearing this, Yang Xiao suddenly had a look of admiration for Jade Jiaolong in his eyes: "That's right."

The two walked forward while chatting, and Yu Jiaolong told Yang Xiao what he saw in the mountains, and she also talked about the ordinary things with great interest, which greatly relieved the fatigue and boredom of the journey.After walking for half a day, the sky has been gray. As Yu Jiaolong said, today is a cold and cloudy day.Yu Jiaolong and Yang Xiaoxing are so close that they don't feel cold anymore.
