Chapter 1169 Choosing a Place
Classmate Le stayed at Erbo Chao’s house for another night, and returned to school with her handsome brother the next morning. As soon as she returned to the dormitory, visitors came one after another. First, there were three handsome boys from the opposite dormitory. His classmates Ba DaJingang and Bian Yuan, brothers Wu Shao and Tantai, Li Shao Da Cai Zi and others also came to care for little Loli's younger brother.
They found out late, almost all of them only learned about the robbery of little Loli's brother on New Year's Day. At that time, they thought that she had to take care of her brother and appease her family at home, so they didn't call to bother them. Now that Little Loli returns to school, they will be there as soon as possible. Dormitories express concern.
In the middle of the afternoon, Mrs. Wang, Professor Wanqi, and her grandson came after hearing the news, followed closely by Comrade Xiao Ou.
Professor Wanqi and Mrs. Wang only found out on the evening of New Year’s Day that Xiao Mian Jiao’s younger brother had been kidnapped. They found out what had happened by calling Xiao Chao because their phone number to Xiao Mian Jiao that day could not be reached. They were so anxious that they almost bought a ticket and flew. E Bei, I heard that everyone was safe so I didn't go to Lejia.
Mrs. Wang was still frightened when she saw her little cotton-padded jacket holding him tightly in her arms. If the little boy had moved slower and not escaped from the danger before the villa exploded, she might never see the little guy again. Yes!
Professor Wanqi only touched the primary school student's head, but the primary school student was not sad. His wife was so distressed that she shed tears. He and the primary school student worked hurriedly for a long time before coaxing his wife.
Second Young Master Wang was a good boy, and he became a tea boy with the beautiful boy Bo Ge.
In order to appease the frightened wife, Le Yunlai rolled around in her arms and acted cute for a long time before coaxing her to smile again. In the evening, she cooked her own delicacies, and finally persuaded her to leave. He was afraid that she would be frightened and have nightmares, so she wanted to stay with her. The sleeping teacher’s wife.
After seeing off the professor's wife, Coach Ou, and the beautiful young brother, Le Yun sighed, washed up quickly, closed the doors and windows, and studied her own cultivated antibodies while making fish soup.
She is conducting multiple experiments on growing antibodies. In addition to hers and her brother's, there are also those from Brother Chao, the Xuan family, the Tantai siblings, and an antibody grown purely with drugs. There are dozens of vessels in total.
The fish soup was made near midnight, and the little fox and little Huihui were caught, and each of the two little beasts drank the soup.
The little Loli drank a bowl of soup and was sweating profusely. After the little fox drank a pot of soup, he and Little Huihui were sent to the Paradise of Cave and fell down on the grass, turning their bellies and falling asleep.
After a hard night's work, Le Xiao's classmate made nutritious breakfast as usual in the morning, and went to take the exam after waiting for his handsome brother to finish.
The new week is the final exams for various elective courses, as well as physical education exams.
Taking exams is as simple as eating and drinking for the little Lolita. She keeps changing exam rooms during the day and does experimental research at night, so she can do both experiments and exams.
On Tuesday, Master Xuan received a call from his home saying that he had found Daoist Yu, and he waited until noon to convey the good news to Little Loli.
It’s not that the Xuan family is incompetent and it took so many geniuses to find someone, but Zhongnan Mountain is too wide and there are too many monks’ secluded places. It’s not easy to find someone. The four soldiers of the Xuan family were divided into two groups, from the north to In the south, we searched from west to east and searched all the famous temples and Taoist temples in Gu. It took a lot of effort to find out the whereabouts of Taoist Master Yu.
They found the hermit cave where Taoist Master Yu lived, and checked again and again to confirm that it was Taoist Master Yu before leaving one person to wait for him. The other three went down the mountain first, one to report the news to the family, and the other to go down the mountain to make purchases.
Le Yun was extremely relieved to know that Daochang Yu was really in Zhongnan Mountain. With Senior Yu leaving Shengwu Mountain, she had the opportunity to do her best.
Yu Hui goes out early every day and comes back late every day. He also returns when it gets dark that day. He goes back to the hermit cave where he is staying, shakes off the snow dregs all over his body, and pauses before going inside.
There are only two small rooms in the small mud house. In the room where the hermit lives, there is a stove and a guest.
When the guest saw Taoist Master Yu returning, he stood up and clasped his fists: "I am a disciple of the Zhongxuan family in the Qin Dynasty. I heard that Taoist Master Yu came to Zhongnan Mountain to practice hermitage, and I was asked to come to visit you. Please forgive me for disturbing you."
"You are a descendant of the Xuanyuan family. I have admired you for a long time! Your Excellency, please take a seat. I am living in the cave of Brother Li Yuan. I have been taken care of by Brother Li Yuan. I will be grateful to everyone in the Xuan family." Yu Hui took off his cold coat before going to the fire. sit.
"No, Master Yu is so polite."
The Xuan family disciples made concessions to Daoist Yu before sitting down by the stove. They picked up the backpack on the side and took out dried walnuts. One portion was given to Daoist Yu to satisfy their hunger, and the other was given to Daoist Li Yuan.
Yu Hui was not polite and took the walnuts and ate them slowly. Taoist Li Yuan went to pour hot water. The three of them drank hot water and ate dried fruits for dinner.
After eating a handful of nuts, Yu Huncai politely asked who asked the Xuan family to come to look for him and what was going on.
"My surname is Le, after an old friend of Daoist Yu." The Xuan family disciple told the truth with a smile: "On January 3rd, little girl Le was shocked to hear that Daoist Yu left Ebei and came to Zhongnan Mountain to seek the Taoist path. She was worried that the Taoist would not adapt to the cold weather. Due to the freezing northern climate, and being unable to escape due to business reasons, I specially entrusted Xuanjia to find out where the Taoist leader lived in seclusion.
We searched all the way and heard that a hermit saw that the Taoist priest seemed to be in Zhenren Li's cave. We searched again and were relieved to see the Taoist priest in Zhongnan Mountain with our own eyes. ”
"It turns out to be Le...a little girl."
Just as he thought, Yu Hui's heart was sour and swollen, and the tip of his tongue was full of bitterness. He sighed faintly and asked: "How is the little girl's younger brother?"
"Taoist Master, please relax. The little baby is safe and sound. The little baby of Lejia has long been worshiped by Senior Yi as his teacher. Outsiders don't know it. Elder Yi has rushed to Lejia. There is such a master-level martial arts master in Lejia." , why fear the little mice?”
"That's good." Yu Hui was overjoyed. Junior Brother Le's grandson worshiped under the Guanyin Hall. He is also the direct disciple of Elder Yi. With the Guanyin Hall supporting the child, those with evil intentions must not dare to act recklessly.
"There is a little girl in the Le family, so the Taoist priest does not need to worry about the Le family siblings. Although he can live in seclusion in Zhongnan Mountain, I wonder if he can find a treasure land suitable for building a mansion?"
"There are several places where we can live together, but they are too remote. If we build houses in two places, we must destroy the land and trees. So far, we have not found a suitable place."
"In the winter in the north, the mountains are covered with heavy snow and the roads are slippery and cold. The Taoist leader might as well wait until spring before looking for a suitable place. If you find a treasured cave for settlement, please inform the Xuan family. The Xuan family will lead people to build it for the Taoist priest. Before the head of the family leaves, At this time, I asked the Taoist leader which kind of cave he preferred, whether to use bricks and cement materials or to use wood. ”
"I don't dare bother my Taoist friends. Practitioners only need a place to live. I can find a place to build a hut with grass and live in peace. How dare I bother my Taoist friends from the Xuan family to run around for such trivial things as me."
< br>
"Master Taoist, you are so polite. Little Miss Le's friendship with my young master is, in the little girl's words, 'what kind of polite words can we say based on our friendship?'
The little girl asked the Xuan family to build a cave for the Taoist priest. If we are passive and slow down the work, we, the young masters, will be embarrassed to have wine and chat with the little girl, make tea and discuss Taoism. ”
"No reward for no merit, I deserve it." "The Taoist priest said this out of touch. The Taoist priest is the same disciple of Miss Le's grandfather. Miss Le is the most grateful. It is her filial piety to support her senior. The Taoist master's true sympathy for the younger generation is to accept the little girl's feelings
Otherwise, the little girl remembered that the Taoist priest had no fixed place to live in the mountains and had no source of food and clothing. She was worried and had trouble sleeping and eating. It would be disadvantageous for the little girl to object. The Taoist priest said that this was not the case. ”
The disciples of Xuanjia did not say that the tongue is like a lotus flower, but every sentence is reasonable. Yu Hui was speechless for a while, and then he smiled bitterly for a while: "Everything that fellow Taoist said is reasonable, but I am speechless. In this way, I am grateful to you, fellow Taoist, and Friends of the Xuan family have worked hard.”
"No, Taoist priest, you're welcome."
The disciple of the Xuan family was overjoyed. Before leaving, the head of the family asked him to enlighten Daoist Yu. He thought for a long time but didn't know how to persuade Daoist Yu to relax. Who knew that Daoist Yu was so easy-going and simple, and he was willing to accept the little girl without saying anything. Giving support is simply a happy event.
Taoist Li Yuan waited for the two guests to finish talking about their affairs, and then made another pot of tea.
The Xuanjia disciples brought out dried fruits and pastries again, and the three of them drank tea slowly, discussing the weather and the way to practice. They talked until nearly nine o'clock before going to bed.
Yu Hui squeezed with the Xuan family disciples. He didn't sleep for half the night. He only squinted for a while. He got up early to meditate and only lit a fire to cook porridge at dawn.
Zhongnan Mountain is covered with snow, and everything is white. The top of the mountain is surrounded by fog and cannot be seen.
After a simple meal, Taoist priest Li Yuan was in a state of elegance. He accompanied Taoist priest Yu Hui and the Xuan family disciples to walk around and look for a place suitable for building a house.
After going around in a long circle, Taoist priest Li Yuan suggested: "Actually, the rock under the rock near where I live is a good place. There are monks who chose to become immortals on the cliff, and there are female lay monks not far away."
Li Yuandao lived under a semi-sloping and semi-flat slope in the middle of the mountain. There were several hermits' secluded places on the edge of the woods and at the foot of the hillside. Under the rocks not far from his residence, monks once built a few mud walls and stone houses. Seclusion.
The monk who originally lived there jumped off a cliff to die when he was seriously ill. Therefore, many people were unwilling to choose to settle there. The original earthen walls collapsed due to disrepair.
Of course, the main reason why there is no one living there is because there is one side not far from the cliff. The wind is strong in winter, and rainwater sometimes flows down the rock wall during heavy rains in the rainy season. Ordinary monks have no financial resources or funds to build caves, so they build them at will. The house is unsafe to live in.
The rock is only about half a mile away from Taoist Li Yuan's cave in a straight line. It actually takes a detour, at least a mile and a half. It is also far away from the water source, and it is more than two miles away from the nearest water source. To carry water in winter, you need to go up the mountain. It takes more than three miles to walk down below, and the round trip is nearly seven miles.
Yu Hui did not comment, but the Xuan family disciples were somewhat interested and went to visit again. The three of them went around to the bottom of the rock. On one side of the rock towards the bottom of the mountain, which was relatively flat, there were two houses made of clay, inhabited by one person. There is a nun, a nun, and a layman or a monk further away.
The Xuanjia disciples thought it was excellent. If we really talked about the scenery and location, it was better than Daozhang Li's cave. Of course, it was only suitable for people practicing martial arts. The wind blowing from the cliff was strong and cold. It was not suitable for ordinary monks. It is difficult to resist, and there is a danger of being blown off if you get too close to the cliff.
Yu Hui actually likes the cliff there. The location there is somewhat similar to the Taoist temple where he lives in Shengwu Mountain. He and his master have been practicing on the cliff for decades. They are used to overlooking the distance and practicing in the wind, but they are not used to it when they change places.
He didn't consider it before because he was short of money. He and his master had little savings. He had saved ten thousand by his own efforts. When he left the mountain, he only took away his own savings and a few items from his master, but not even half of the wealth of Shengwu Mountain.
That little savings is useless. It will take a few months to live in Li Yuandong Mansion, and there won't be much left by next year. If he wants to build a residential house, he originally thought of selling one or two old things in exchange for money, which would probably be enough to pay for the materials. cost.
If you really want to choose a place to settle under the cliff, it would be great, but it may cost a lot of money. Yu Hui is not willing to let Junior Brother Le's children spend money for him.
"I think it's quite nice here. The water source is a little far away, so fetching water is just like practicing."
The Xuanjia disciple observed for a long time and asked Taoist Master Yu with a smile: "Taoist Master, what do you think? If you don't mind the strong wind nearby, you can choose this as one of the candidates for the cave. It would be better if there are other better treasures. .”
Yu Hui couldn't say anything against his will, so he held it in for a long time before speaking: "It is extremely difficult to build houses here."
"Personally, I think it's not too difficult. Just use cement to build a roof ridge along the rock wall and then install tiles. I'll record it first and give it to the young master to pass it on to the little girl to see and listen to the little girl's opinion.
As for the funds to build the cave mansion, the Taoist priest doesn't have to worry about it. Little Miss Le's plucked hair is thicker than our waists, so there is no need to help the little girl save money. The most important thing is whether the Taoist priest likes this place and whether he is willing to build a treasure house here. "The Xuanjia disciple smiled and took out his mobile phone to take a video.
Taoist priest Li Yuan wanted to give some advice, but stopped after thinking about it.
Yu Hui was moved, but still hesitated again and again, and did not make a final decision. Not to mention the financial issue, transporting materials up the mountain was also a big problem. The mountain roads in many places were steep, and there were safety risks in transporting materials up and down.
The Xuanjia disciples and Taoist Master Li Yuan did not continue to persuade them to make arrangements early and make preparations. They understood every detail and slowly walked back to Taoist Li Yuan's practice place.
Most practitioners eat one meal, breakfast and lunch combined into one meal. Taoist Master Li Yuan cooks a meal at noon and eats before noon.
Just after noon, the three people from the Xuan family who had descended the mountain yesterday climbed the mountain again, each carrying 156 kilograms of supplies, including rice, noodles, oil, salt, sugar, quilts, down jackets, large cotton-padded jackets, and vegetables. Easy to store yuba, tofu skin, dried radish, dried vegetables, dried nuts, etc.
There were so many supplies, enough for Taoist priest Li Yuan and Taoist priest Yu Hui to eat for a whole winter. Because there were so many things, the two rooms were packed to the brim, and even the beds were stacked with items.
They found Taoist Master Yu, who was safe, and brought some daily necessities to him, which was enough for the two monks to eat for a while. The four disciples of the Xuan family thanked Taoist Li Yuan, said goodbye to Taoist Yu, and went down the mountain to return to the Xuan family.
Yu Hui sent the four descendants of the Xuan family away for a while, and asked Taoist friends from the Xuan family to bring a message: "Please tell Miss Le that everything is fine with me in Zhongnan Mountain. Please don't worry about me. Her brother and sister are safe and happy. I have nothing to worry about anymore.”
"We must convey the message to Taoist Master, it's windy and snowy outside, please come back." The four disciples of the Xuan family asked Taoist Master Yu to stay and said goodbye and went down the mountain.
Yu Hui watched the four of them walking farther and farther against the wind and snow, until they could no longer be seen. Then they slowly turned around and walked towards the place of practice of Taoist Li Yuan. Their backs were straight and straight against the wind and snow.
