The fisherman was obviously very excited. He didn't even confiscate the dozen fishing rods, and took Yin Xiu and the others into a certain tunnel.
According to his words: Once ashore, who cares where the boat is abandoned?
The fisherman didn't know whether it was because he hadn't seen outsiders for a long time or because he was afraid that they would be bored, so he kept chattering along the way.
“When I was on the ground, I had a job that I didn’t really like, it wasn’t interesting, and I didn’t plan to stay in it, but it was still a stable job.
It doesn’t matter what job I do, whether I get promoted or not, or when I have enough money to get married and buy a house.
For me, whatever job I do is just to have money to buy fishing rods, buy bait, and rent a house by the sea where I can fish at any time.
But for a period of time, I couldn't catch anything. I had a whole box of fishing lines from the smallest model to the largest, and even floats had various specifications.
I tried everything from earthworms to corn to sardines, but I couldn't catch any fish.
I was desperate at that time. I felt that the fish in the sea probably didn’t like me anymore. They wouldn’t eat my bait. Could it be that my bait smelled bad? Then one day, Elder Duchen, yes, he is the introductory mentor of many people.
He told me that it wasn’t actually my skills that were the problem, nor that the fish didn’t like me anymore. The problem was the luck of Hong Kong Island.
Then he asked me again, what is a big fish?
I opened my hands and said that the tuna was longer than a human. Du Chen smiled slightly and said that it was not a big fish.
Then I made another gesture with my hands and said it was a great white shark that was bigger than a small Chen laughed again and said that it was not a big fish either.
I asked him, could it be that only those as big as sperm whales are considered big fish? He shook his head, threw a fishing rod into my hand, and said that from now on, he would ask me to fish for Kyushu's Qianlong, Hidden Dragon.
At that time, I was still ignorant and thought those were just another name for eel. I thought it was not a big fish. Only later did I realize that he was asking me to fish for those lucky fishes.
That's a really big fish!Now I remember the feeling of being hooked for the first time, and my hands are still shaking! "
The fisherman showed his hands to the three people. His fingers were covered with ravines of different depths, which were obviously left by years of fishing lines.
The angler didn’t explain clearly how it was regarded as fishing luck. Maybe he himself didn’t know it very well, so he didn’t go into details.
Naturally, Yin Xiu doesn't care much about this. He only needs to know that Diaoyutai is a very vast place, and there are many secrets hidden in it that he doesn't need to know yet.
Just as he was thinking this, the fisherman said: "Our elder is up there."
He pointed to the rock wall above, which obviously meant that the elder's position was on a higher rock formation.
"Which elder? Du Chen?"
The fisherman glanced at Yin Xiu and laughed, "Duchen is dead, you did it sir."
Yin Xiu didn't expect him to be so frank and forthright, so she could only nod and said: "I thought you would send people here to take revenge, but after so long, there is no sign of any trouble."
The fisherman reached out to Luo Wei for another cigarette and nodded heavily to express his gratitude.
laugh! Fire rose around his mouth, followed by wisps of smoke.
After exhaling a puff of smoke, the angler said calmly: "We don't do meaningless things. Revenge itself is one of the meaningless things. You just killed our people and did not hinder us.
If more people are sent to kill you, you will become an obstacle.
Complicating simple things is not our principle. "
"You are not as stubborn as others think."
The fisherman chuckled, "We have always been very easy-going, but there are some principles that we stick to very rigidly, but that doesn't mean we won't give in and stand there like a stone."
When he said this, Yin Xiu's initial wariness became less guarded.
Speaking of which, he didn't have any deep grudges against these Qi refiners. They didn't care about them anymore. He only cared so much about what he was doing.
But who can guarantee that these Qi refiners are not just like monks, saying one thing but thinking another?
When Yin Xiu was worried, several people had climbed up a rather steep slope to the location mentioned by the fisherman before, where a village appeared in front of them.
Unlike the previous places where it looked like just a few people gathering together, picking up a few pieces of paper or setting up a tent as a gathering area, this village looked no different from the outside world.
Fences, stone roads, large iron shacks, dotted lights on the road, and chimneys rising one after another.
Yin Xiu couldn't help but feel the smell of burned vegetation and ashes in the distance, and couldn't help but twitch her nose.
"We call this place Taoyuan Township." said the angler.
Yin Xiu nodded, "I thought you just made alchemy and didn't care about anything else."
The fisherman laughed softly, "Even if you want to make elixirs and seek immortality, you have to eat first. People also need to eat one or two red dates and drink some millet before eating. How do we get red dates and millet? We don't have to figure it out ourselves.
The elders said that there are different fates for immortals and different roots. Some people can seek immortality and ask for help, while some people are only suitable for chopping wood and making fire. You cannot let a sweeper pray for rain, and a plowman be a private school teacher. "
"Then you are here doing odd jobs? Looking at the environment, it's not as good as on the ground." Luo Wei asked.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yin Xiu stood in front, but she still reached behind and pinched his waist.
But Luo Wei seemed to have no reaction at all, and continued to talk about some of his own opinions.
At one moment, he said that the promotion channels here are not transparent, and at the next he talked about the job security problem here. He also suggested that if he had the chance, he should abandon the dark side and find a serious job at the Labor Department. "what happened?"
Yin Xiu pinched it again and turned around, only to see Ma Xiaoyu looking at him.
"You pinched the wrong person!"
She smiled, but her expression was full of coldness, like a knife cutting someone into several pieces.
When Yin Xiu felt attacked from both sides, the fisherman who should have been offended did not take it seriously.
"The elder said again that when a person achieves enlightenment, a chicken or a dog ascends to heaven, in fact, there is no distinction between high and low in work, they are all the same.
When one day we find the Immortal Mountain and enter the Paradise, not to mention those of us who work hard, even those who stay overnight in our place and come to beg for food will also be able to achieve enlightenment and ascend. "
Luo Wei asked again: "Isn't this an unfair thing to you? If those people who didn't contribute even half a cent and just happened to visit your place also ascended, then in my opinion , this is too outrageous.”
"Does it matter?"
The fisherman glanced at him and felt that Luo Wei was a little strange.
"You have ascended to enlightenment and transcended to bliss. Why do you care about these trivial things?"
In fact, not only the fishermen, but also Yin Xiu felt a little strange about Luo Wei's performance.
He seemed to talk a lot today, and it was very unreasonable and different from the past.
While the fisherman was walking forward, Yin Xiu fell half a step behind, poked Luo Wei in the ribs, and asked in a low voice: "Yongtan, what are you doing with your plane? You've been talking nonsense since just now." If so, it seems like you want to make him fall out?"
Luo Wei nodded, "I just want him to fall out. I want to try these pretentious guys. Where is their bottom line? I think these people will always have some mistakes.
No matter how deep the psychological hypnosis is, in real life, won’t there be friction between people?Just like you and I occasionally quarrel. "
Yin Xiu glanced at him, "Have we ever quarreled? Isn't it always me who speaks and you listen?"
Luo Wei was choked by him, and after a while he spread his hands and said: "It's almost the same anyway, I don't believe they are monolithic internally. In such a large organization, there will always be some gaps.
Maybe I just talked about it casually, but the fisherman took it seriously. I planted a seed of doubt in his heart, which may make it easier for us to do things in the future. "
Yin Xiu couldn't help but be a little surprised, "You also want to get such a sinister trick, who did you learn it from?"
"Those ghosts!"
"Oh, no wonder then."
Yin Xiu nodded, and with a smile on his face when he turned around, he followed the fisherman.
In the village, some people had already stood up and looked at them on both sides of the road.
Different from previous impressions, this time, there were many more female faces in the group of Qi Refiners, both young and old.
Their faces all looked a little pale because they had not seen the sun for a long time, and even their lips showed an unhealthy color.
But they don't seem to be weak at all. Instead, they give people a sense of transcendent tranquility and tranquility between their brows.
The women stood still and put the backs of their hands together, their index fingers next to their middle fingers, and their ring fingers next to their little fingers. They made that strange gesture again, saluting Yin Xiu and the others.
Among those women, an old lady who was probably less than meters tall came out, with a haggard face and a thin figure.
But like these women, she couldn't see any weakness in her cloudy eyes, but instead had a firm and sacred feeling.
"Mammy."
The fisherman called out in a low voice and saluted her respectfully.
"Blessings and births are unified, and the heart net is bodhi."
The old lady known as Mammy looked at Yin Xiu with a strange light in her eyes.
"Young man, are you also here to become an immortal?"
Somehow, Yin Xiu always felt that this old woman was unfathomable, and her expression couldn't help but become serious.
"No, I'm not interested in becoming an immortal or a Bodhisattva. I'm just here to find someone, and I'm asking for your help for convenience."
"Oh?"
Mammy glanced at him and turned her cloudy eyes in a circle, as if she wanted to see through Yin Xiu.
"Since you have no intention of becoming an immortal, why did you come here with the destiny of being an immortal? Are you just willing to be a messenger or a ferry?"
Yin Xiu grinned, "For me, most of the time, everything is just accidents and misunderstandings."
Mammy sighed, "Accidents, aren't they also destiny sometimes?"
As she spoke, she raised her hand again, signaling Yin Xiu and the others to go inside.
"Come on, three guests, come in and have a cup of hot tea, and then we'll talk about something else, about the Fairy Mountain." (End of Chapter)
