Chapter 316: Unchangeable
Shi Xiaoliu frowned and looked at her: "Sister Lan, let's talk about serious matters.
I know you are not very old now, but you are more mature than other girls of the same age.
You understand that marriage has little to do with need, right? ”
Shi Zelan nodded. She understood some of Shi Xiaoliu's thoughts.
"Sister Lan, you have a long time to practice. If you can meet someone you like, don't miss that person because of your stubbornness."
Shi Zelan understood Shi Xiaoliu's thoughts for her: "Brother Xiaoliu, I understand how well you treat me.
It’s just that some people need marriage, but I don’t need marriage.
I only have spiritual practice in my mind, so I don't want to delay other people's beautiful marriages. ”
Shi Xiaoliu wanted to persuade Shi Zelan, but Xia Yu said, "Brother Xiaoliu, everyone has their own hobbies, and you can't force them.
Lan Jie'er's current thoughts are actually not wrong. As for whether she will change in the future, that is a matter for the future. ”
Shi Xiaoliu looked at the expression on Shi Zelan's face. Shi Zelan really had no interest in romance.
He sighed and said, "Sister Lan, Uncle Beichen and Auntie are going back to the sect. Do you think they can accept your decision?"
Shi Zelan smiled and said, "Xiao Liu, if I grew up around them, I would probably consider their ideas."
Xia Yu shook her head at Shi Xiaoliu and said, "Xiaoliu, a little girl like Lan Jie'er doesn't need to shoulder the family inheritance.
Unless your uncle and aunt can come back now, otherwise it will be difficult for them to force Lan Jie'er to get married after she has achieved success in her cultivation. ”
Getting married has never been a necessity for female monks.
For them, getting married may be an embellishment of their spiritual life. ”
Shi Zelan nodded vigorously: "Xiao Liu, we female cultivators have always had a broad vision, and the sea of stars is the place we yearn for the most."
Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu looked up at the sky, then looked at Shi Zelan: "Your goals are indeed ambitious enough, and now you are thinking about the good things after ascending."
Shi Zelan looked at the two of them and laughed, "Don't tell me you haven't thought about things this far."
After Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu exchanged glances, Shi Xiaoliu said to Shi Zelan: "Sister Lan, I'm fine now, you can go back."
Xia Yu smiled and said, “I will practice the spiritual planting technique with all my heart.
Sister Lan, I won't speak for you anymore. Just meditate and practice. ”
Shi Zelan returned to his own roof and continued to meditate and practice.
The people on the top of the mountain are unaware of the passage of time, but after the mundane new year is over, the bustling scene below the mountain returns to normal.
Before that, Shi Xiaoliu and two other people went to the canyon during the New Year when there was no one at the bottom of the valley.
The three of them practiced sword fighting happily until the evening of that day, when they wiped out the traces they left at the bottom of the valley.
On the second day, they went to see the site of the avalanche and saw that the distant mountains were still covered with snow.
After the New Year, some officers and soldiers came to the mountain one after another.
Shi Xiaoliu and the other two still found an opportunity to go to the canyon, and they heard clear footsteps coming from the bottom of the valley.
They just stood on the top of the canyon, turned around and went to the place where the avalanche occurred, and saw the officers and soldiers standing there from afar.
They had no choice but to turn back to the top of the mountain. The three of them no longer wanted to wander around the mountain together. They spent most of their time meditating and practicing.
Spring was almost over, and the officers and soldiers at the foot of the mountain came and went. Shi Xiaoliu and the other two had become accustomed to their presence.
Xia Yu was a little anxious because Master Qiyuan's brothers had not sent him any news.
Xia Yu passed the message to his grandfather, and learned that Master Qi Yuan's brothers were safe, but they could not come to find him for the time being. Xia Yu felt relieved again.
In recent days, there are more people collecting herbs on the mountain, and the officers and soldiers let them go up the mountain to collect herbs.
Shi Xiaoliu found an opportunity to sneak in and collect herbs with the herbalists. While they were collecting herbs, they talked to each other about pharmacology.
Of course, when the herbalists went down the mountain, Shi Xiaoliu also followed them down the mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, Shi Xiaoliu separated from the herbalists and quickly found an opportunity to return to the top of the mountain.
Shi Xiaoliu shared his joy with Xia Yu and Shi Zelan, and advised them: "When you have the chance, you should also leave the top of the mountain and walk around."
Shi Zelan therefore took time out to go to Yangzhou Prefecture and specifically eat at a vegetarian restaurant.
Before she left, she specially packed up several meals and brought them back for Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu to taste.
She told Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu some news she had heard: "Some news has come out from Yangzhou Prefecture, saying that people from the government have discovered a jade mine deep in the mountains."
Shi Xiaoliu took a deep breath after hearing this: "The people in Yangzhou Prefecture are very good at guessing, but the people in the government are probably also happy to hear such news."
Xia Yu immediately said to Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan: "I will also go to Yangzhou Prefecture tomorrow to see if I can hear any new news in the bookstore."
The next day, Xia Yu went out alone. Shi Xiaoliu said to Shi Zelan with some concern, "How long will the invisibility charm you drew for him last?"
"He can leisurely walk out of the officers' and soldiers' sight, and then run forward three to five intersections, and perhaps continue to be used."
After hearing this, Shi Xiaoliu said to Shi Zelan, "I will also go to Yangzhou Prefecture in a few days."
Shi Zelan looked at him and said, "Okay, I won't let you down.
Xiaoliu, there are too many people on the mountain now, and we have no way to pick some leaves and bring them back. ”
"Let's wait a little longer. When the government figures out a way to deal with the gold mine, there shouldn't be so many soldiers at the foot of the mountain."
Shi Zelan thought of the newly built tea shed beside the official road, and said to Shi Xiaoliu: "There won't be so many soldiers walking down the mountain, but there will be more people who make a living walking up the mountain."
Shi Xiaoliu was speechless for a moment, and looked at Shi Zelan and said, "We can only travel freely after this current craze is over."
Shi Zelan looked at him and smiled: "Brother Xiaoliu, I'm afraid that the love of gold in the secular world is unchangeable.
With the existence of gold mines, this mountain is destined to become lively. “
After hearing what Shi Zelan said, Shi Xiaoliu sighed and said, "Sister Lan, I think my master and uncle are both destined to get rich."
Shi Zelan agreed with Shi Xiaoliu's words: "Yes, and they choose a big mountain. If they live there for a long time, they will always find treasures."
While they were talking, Xia Yu was almost at Yangzhou Prefecture. After showing his household registration card to the official at the city gate, he strode into the city gate.
Xia Yu took a look at the tea stall at the city gate and found that the business was very slow.
He didn't stop and went to the city immediately. He went directly to the largest bookstore in the city.
When he entered, there were already many people reading in the bookstore. Xia Yu walked to the crowded bookshelf and reached out to pull out a book.
