Hanging pot to help the world, I just want to live forever

Chapter 338

"Thousands of miles away from the Buzhou Mountain Range, there is another mountain, although it is not as magnificent as the Buzhou Mountain Range, it is also famous.

Its name is Longmen, on the bank of the long river.

The ancestors spent thousands of materials and resources to dig mountains and open doors for more than one mile.The long river flows down from the middle, and there are no cars and horses on both sides of the river.

Every 15 years, there are big carps from the sea and the rivers vying for the first to cross the Longmen.

After the big carp crossed the dragon gate, the clouds and rain followed by the fire from the sky burned its tail, and then it turned into a dragon, which is a rare sight for mortals.

Whenever the carp leaps over the Dragon Gate, many people come here admiringly, just to witness this spectacle in the world with their own eyes. "

While walking, Zhuang Sheng kept talking.

When it comes to various myths and legends, strange scenery, humanities and even history, he has an extremely deep understanding. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as knowledgeable like the sea. In this regard, even Gu Dan should be ashamed.

This person is really enjoying life, and never worries about his "future" and "future", and only does things that interest him, whether it is in the Xia Dynasty or in the Buzhou Mountains. .

It can be said to be unrestrained and happy to the extreme.

Gu Dan knows a lot of masters and has seen more, but no matter who they are, they are not as happy as Zhuang Sheng. Even if Zhuang Sheng's strength is even inferior to those he knows, why not live happily Woolen cloth?
If you don't want to pursue a higher realm, or set too ambitious goals, the strength of the master is completely enough for people to live a life in style.

It's just that Zhuang Sheng is the only one who can really carry this chic throughout. Among so many people Gu Dan has seen, only Zhuang Sheng is like this.

"I often go down there every year. It's too boring up there, but it's also clean. Although it's noisy down below, I can still see the bustling inside."

For Gu Dan, it was a return to the mortal world, but for Zhuang Sheng, everything was so familiar.

He put on a sackcloth, carried a bamboo pole and a fish basket, wore a coir raincoat, and a bamboo hat. He looked like a fisherman, and even Gu Dan could smell a strong fishy smell from his body.

Zhuang Sheng was not at all uncomfortable, it was clearly Gu Dan who invited him down the mountain, but he seemed to be the host, entertaining the guests, and said like a treasure: "If you talk about food and drink, the wine and dishes in Zuixianlou can be described as extraordinary; if you want to enjoy the scenery , the upcoming Yuyue Longmen is a must-see; if you are beautiful, Yingying and Yanyan from Yihongyuan are also extremely talented."

Zhuang Sheng strode forward, with a strong figure, and asked with a smile, "Which one is more interested in, Brother Kong?"

"You can't stop eating and drinking while you're alive. I haven't eaten any delicacies in so many years, so I should go to Zuixianlou."

Gu takes responsibility even if he has a choice.

Practicing to his level, there is no problem at all with bigu for ten days and a half months. Even Ningfang, which is searched and searched, has the lowest level of bigu pills. There is no problem in eating one for three days.

But in this way, the enjoyment of eating is lost. It seems that eating is just to fill the stomach, which makes Gu Dan especially displeased.

However, Xianfang doesn't support idlers, and every inch of land is expensive. It doesn't even have a decent cook, so he can't stand alone.

It's fine if you don't think about it on weekdays, since it's out, it's time to enjoy it.

"That's wrong. Since I have entered the mortal world, I have to go there. It's nothing more than a difference in order."

Zhuang Sheng laughed and said, "Brother Kong, don't worry too much, I'll show you around!"

"what"

Gu Dan laughed, then nodded, and said, "Yes."

Drunken House.

This building is as high as nine floors, and you can overlook half of the city scenery from a condescending height. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the scenery is beautiful.

Moreover, it is said that some immortals came to this building for a banquet decades ago, and when they were drunk, they left out of thin air. Since then, this building has been renamed "Drunken Immortal", which has further contributed to its reputation.

Countless princes, nobles, and children of aristocratic families are willing to come here for a small gathering just to get a little bit of immortality. If they are lucky enough to meet an immortal, if they are favored, wouldn't they be half-stepping into the road?
"Although this building has nine floors, only eight floors are open to the outside world. The ninth floor is only for 'immortals', but it is said that since the ninth floor was left open, no one has ever visited it."

When he came to the downstairs of Zuixian, Zhuang Sheng said like a few treasures.

"Really? So, it doesn't necessarily have any fairy spirit."

Gu Dan shook his head slightly and refused to comment.

"Immortals don't need to care, but they dare not disrespect."

However, Zhuang Sheng said indifferently: "Besides, the wine and food in Zuixianlou are really extraordinary, with great craftsmanship. It's not a trouble to make a special trip for this."

He walked familiarly with Gu Dan to the Zuixian Building. The lower three floors are halls where people from the top class gather, and the middle three floors are private rooms, mostly for the children of rich families. As for the upper three floors, it is not for ordinary people to go to. Think about it.

Zhuang Sheng didn't pick a seat, he just chose a spot in the lobby on the first floor, he couldn't wait to slap the table and shouted: "The waiter!"

"Come here, my lord, what do you want to eat?"

The waiter in the shop ran over quickly, and asked diligently without any strange eyes because of Zhuang Sheng's attire.

"Serve all the good dishes here."

Zhuang Sheng said casually.

"what?"

The waiter in the shop was a little dazed.

"All the good dishes, all served again."

Zhuang Sheng said patiently.

"My lord, there are more than a hundred kinds of delicacies in Zuixianlou, you two may not be able to eat them all."

The waiter said in a low voice.

"Then you don't have to worry about it."

Zhuang Sheng sighed softly with his fingers, and a piece of gold fell onto the table, with an extraordinary arrogance.

The shop waiter picked up the gold, pressed it slightly, and said no more at the moment, "Let's go and urge the cook."

Zhuang Sheng, on the other hand, held the gold in his hand, and said with an inexplicable expression: "This thing is left in the Buzhou Mountains. It is useless. It is afraid that it will be soft when pressed on the table. But it falls in the common world, but it is tens of thousands of weights, which is enough to replace it. Come to Jinyiyushi, glory and wealth.

Poor group of lofty "immortals" are still struggling, unable to escape, each worrying about themselves, and rarely smiling.On the contrary, in the ordinary world, laughter and laughter can be seen everywhere, some are contented, some are extravagant, some are precarious, and some are determined to live in the common people. "

With a snap, the thumb-sized gold nugget landed on the table.

"I often feel that the Buzhou Mountains are too petty, too mundane, but have lost the vigor and prosperity of the mundane, like some waves churning in a pool of stagnant water, and the waves can't even turn up.

Whether it's Qi training or foundation building, what's the difference?That kind of practice is really extremely boring, and it is even far worse than being carefree in the mortal world.

That fairy, it doesn't matter if you don't cultivate. "

The surroundings were very noisy, but Zhuang Sheng's lips did not move, but his voice was accurately transmitted to Gu Dan's ears. This was a secret conversation between the two.

"Perhaps, it's because the real fairyland is still in the future. The prosperity of the imperial capital can't be imagined in the valley, so Xiao Xiami has no choice but to play with the sand."

Gu Dan nodded approvingly.

"I'm afraid that under the scouring of the turbulent Yangtze River in the future, it will be difficult for small fish and shrimps to survive. Ordinary things are of little help to the immortal world, and the immortal and the ordinary world are separated by a world of mortals.

What would a true immortal see as mundane?Even in today's Buzhou Mountains, there is almost a state of indifference. Those masters who live in the Nine Heavens really care about the mortal world? "

Zhuang Sheng shook his head.

One thing I have to admit is that the stronger the strength and the longer the lifespan, the lower and lower the sense of identification with the mortal world.

Even if it is just a grandmaster, how much sense of identity can he have for the descendants of his blood after a hundred years?

A person you may have never even met suddenly ran to you and called you "grandfather". Even if you know that the other person has your own blood, how much affection can it arouse?
Most likely, I'm afraid it's just a nod.

This is still related by blood.

Those immortals who have been in seclusion for decades or even hundreds of years, have changed several times between opening and closing their eyes. There is not even a name worth remembering for them—even if there is, it can only be branded. In the book, how many people have the leisure and elegance to understand it?

Anyway, I closed my eyes and opened them again, and I don't know how many heroes and sages are silent in the years.

After a few times like this, even a warm-hearted person may gradually become cold and alienated.

No wonder it is said that the first hurdle of immortality is not aptitude, but cutting mortals.

When the mortal body of the naked eye is cut off, all perceptions of the world can be pursued for the ethereal and supreme immortality.

Even if you have never seen the real prosperity of immortality, Zhuang Sheng can be sure that the group of immortals will never be enthusiastic about everything in the mortal world, and it is not bad to be indifferent.

If nothing is asked, nothing is given.

From the current point of view, except for the talented people who may emerge from the mortal world, the mortal world has almost no help at all in terms of immortality.

Even with the return of the immortals, Zhuang Sheng is not optimistic about how much the secular world can change.

If you don't get hurt, you are successful.

While talking, the delicious food and wine were served.

Steaming hot, full of color and fragrance.

"Come, eat!

People have the desire to eat and drink, and they can forget their worries when they eat! "

Zhuang Sheng was the first to roll up his sleeves, and he was not polite. He stretched out his hand and tore off half of the chicken and began to eat it.

Under the coolness, he also has worries.

It's just that this worry does not affect his broad-mindedness and wantonness.

Gu Dan liked this state of mind very much.

The delicious taste, the good wine in the throat, and the drinking and eating, it can be said that everyone around was stunned.

Zhuang Sheng and Gu Dan didn't care about it at all, and they were even vying for food with each other - food is fun only when people scramble to eat it.

The food and wine are full, and the dishes are piled high.

Without waiting for anyone to pester him, Zhuang Sheng dragged Gu Dan away quickly.

"Satisfied with wine and food, I have to go to that place."

While speaking, Zhuang Sheng didn't walk very far, and Zhuang Sheng brought Gu Dan to Yihong Courtyard with his familiarity.

As soon as I got to the door, I could hear a lot of laughter.

"Up to the third floor."

Zhuang Sheng led Gu Dan to the third floor, where there is a box that is separated from each other but has no door. It can be separated by a screen, and you can directly see the extremely soft dancing posture of the dancing girls in the field.

"My lord, you look very unfamiliar, don't you?"

As soon as Gu Dan sat down, a beautiful woman came to his side immediately, her broad chest was looming, the fragrant wind was lingering, her red sleeves fluttered slightly, just brushing against his face.

"Just be with him."

Gu Dan pointed to Zhuang Sheng at the side and said.

"Since you're here, why are you so alienated?"

The woman leaned over, restlessly resting her palm on Gu Dan's chest, "I think my master is very strong, hehehe."

"It's not alienation."

Gu Dan's blood surged slightly, and the palm on his chest couldn't help but move away.

Zhuang Sheng laughed loudly and said, "If he doesn't like it, he can come to me."

Gu Dan just quietly leaned on the cushion behind him. Although he was in a place of sensuality, he didn't feel uncomfortable at all, but he seemed to be separated from everyone by a barrier.

If he wanted to indulge, there were countless opportunities for him to choose during the Xia Dynasty.

But the real difficulty is not indulgence, but self-sufficiency.

Anyone can indulge, how difficult it is to be self-sufficient.

Gu Dan kept in mind a sentence: There is nothing in the world like human desire and danger, how many people come here and miss their lives.

He won't leave any openings for himself, and he doesn't need such low-level means of indulgence, at least the people in front of him can't arouse his desire.

Practice improves not only the realm, but also the cognition and judgment of things themselves.

The mortal China's beautiful woman fell into his eyes. It's an exaggeration to say that the bones are dry, but it's true that there is no beauty at all.

At his current state, there is no big difference between a pampered woman of princes and nobles and a beggar on the street.

Of course, after all, he has lived in the mundane world for a long time, so his judgment on the "beauty" of ordinary people is still there, but this appreciation of beauty no longer belongs to him.

Unless he blindfolded himself, concealed his soul, and voluntarily became blind, no matter how enchanting and charming he was, he could only say "that's it".

So he is not interested in this kind of occasion, not because he has really lost that desire, but because the gap between the two is too big, so big that even appreciation itself is difficult to appear.

Since he was promoted to Grand Master, he has rarely interacted with outsiders except for those he is familiar with, which may be due to this part of the reason.

It can be seen from this that the fairies in ordinary stories who like mortals are indeed making up things, and the great masters have already been tricked to this point, but any female fairy with some strength is definitely unlikely to fall in love with mortals—even if the other party is arrogant or not? It has nothing to do, the two perceptions of beauty itself are no longer on the same level.

Fortunately, although I have lost a very important pleasure here for many people, Gu Dan can still appreciate the music of silk and bamboo and the beauty of dancing, but it can't be said that the trip is in vain.

When Zhuang Sheng came out of Yihong Courtyard, Zhuang Sheng was a little shaky when he walked.

"Brother Kong is boring, but the beauty is by his side and he is indifferent."

Zhuang Sheng even blamed it.

"Ha, no matter how advanced fellow Daoist Zhuang is, I'm afraid he will lose this joy."

Gu Dan replied with a smile.

"Oh?"

Zhuang Sheng was taken aback for a moment, as if he had thought of something, he didn't want to say any more, he just said: "According to the time, it's almost time for the fish to leap over the dragon's gate. It's the best time to go."

"Okay, let's see if the fish can jump over the dragon gate."
