I am immortal

Chapter 44: Wash my feet

Qi Wuhuo bowed his hands to the man and said, "I've seen this, this big brother..."

Then he looked at the ox, which was bigger and stronger than any other beast he had ever seen, and bowed slightly, saying:

"I've also seen this Big Brother Niu."

Huang Niu seemed to be quite satisfied with the young man's respect for etiquette. Mou Mou barked twice and rubbed his body against the young man. The tall man's face unconsciously became softer, and he laughed and said: "Good boy, Good boy, it turns out it was me who took the liberty."

He looked at the old man again and said, "I'll give you every three hundred..."

The old man coughed slightly.

The man said without changing his expression: "Ahem, yes."

"The rice matures only every three hundred years...the rice is ready, the rice is cooked, and the wine is brewed."

"I'm just waiting for you to come. Although there is an extra little brother, the food prepared is enough."

"please."

The old man smiled and nodded. The tall man led the way. Qi Wuhuo looked around and found that there were not only fields, but also waterways that irrigated the fields. There was a reservoir to store water. It looked like a farm. But when he looked again, he found that This tall man had a gentle and simple smile. He rolled up the cuffs of his hands, revealing his strong arms. When he walked, he looked like a mortal who had no experience in spiritual practice, but he also had a calm and unhurried feeling.

Noticing Qi Wuhuo's gaze, the man lowered his eyes with a smile and nodded to him.

Then he praised: "He is a child with good understanding."

"Your taste is still as picky as ever."

He knew that this old gentleman often traveled around the world and met people with good minds. He was not stingy about teaching some techniques. However, the people who could make the old man write down his names were all those with the same mind and good understanding. In fact, there are some such people, and they have achieved good results in practice.

"If you are not confused, just go and take a walk and have a look."

The old man seemed to have something to say with this man, so he asked Qi Wuhuo to visit various places first. The young man saluted accordingly, and then walked around this place with his sword box on his back. He saw that the rice plants were growing huge and faintly glowing. Spiritual charm, even the pond filled with water is not an ordinary thing, exuding a spiritual energy.

Qi Wuhuo saw a stone tablet standing next to the water-filling pond, with words written on it, and dragons and phoenixes dancing.

"[Nine Kans]?"

"Does it mean nine ravines?"

Qi Wuhuo was confused.

"Pfft, how can it be so straightforward?"

Just as he was wondering, a silver bell-like laughter came from behind. Qi Wuhuo turned around and saw a girl behind him who looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old. She was wearing light green clothes and a gauze skirt with the words " Wearing patterns of flowers and birds, he was looking at the young man in front of him with some curiosity, carrying a sword case and wearing blue clothes.

"Are you a guest?"

"I haven't had any guests here for a long time!"

The girl seemed to rarely see outsiders, so she came forward with bright and big eyes and a clear smile.

Qi Wuhuo calmly took a step back, pulled away to a suitable distance, raised his hands and gave a slight salute, and told him that he had followed the old man to visit his friend. The girl nodded, seemed to be relieved, and said clearly: "Oh, I understand. You followed the elders to find my father, so your seniority is about the same as mine."

"After all, some of the guests look very young, and may even look younger than you and me."

"But he actually has a very irritable personality and is very old."

"Of course, the seniority is also very high!"

"It's so big it's scary."

"You're not that kind of person, that's really great!"

The girl stuck out her tongue, obviously worried about something, and then asked:

"Where are you from?"

"May I have your name?"

"Come here, I'll take you around my house."

The girl has a natural and pure nature and a bright smile. She seems to be happy because it is rare to have people of her own age here.

Qi Wuhuo cupped his hands and thanked him.

Walking along the road, the girl happily introduced the scenery of the entire island. However, Qi Wuzhuo could see that except for the farmland and houses where they were, the entire island was still very large, and it was almost impossible to see the end of it. , and the girl seemed to rarely go to other places, just saying that it was very deserted and there was no need to go there.

In fact, the area just planted with straw is already very large.

Moreover, the scenery is particularly beautiful. The young man carries the sword box on his back and walks forward step by step. He listens to the girl talking about the scenery at home and the scenery in the world. He does not have much experience, but there is Huangliang Yimeng and Tantai. In "The Record of Becoming an Immortal", where Xuan struggled all his life, all kinds of scenery are in his eyes and in his heart.

As they talked about the scenery outside, the girl's face was full of yearning and curiosity.

She sighed sadly:

"It's nice, outside."

"When can we go out?"

Qi Wuhuo asked, "Why do you want to go out?"

The girl pointed around and said: "If you have been looking at this scenery here all your life, don't you want to go outside and have a look? Besides, my father and mother-in-law met outside, why didn't father let me go out?"

Qi Wuhuo said, "Is your mother here too?"

"I am a junior and a guest, so I should pay my respects."

"She's not here anymore."

The girl waved her hand, indicating that the young man in front of her didn't have to do this, and explained: "Mother, she is in another place now."

"Well, you ask why? Because a long, long time ago, my father and mother worked in the same place. At that time, my mother was from a higher background. My father was a general protecting the law. They met each other every day and they had a crush on each other. They were found out. , Dad was just a guard at the time, so he was relieved of his duties and kicked out. Later, my mother also ran out and met Dad [outside]."

"We finally got married against all odds, and then they were separated again."

"Although it seems that one person spoke up in the end, and he was not criticized too much. He was also assigned a very heavy task."

"We can only meet once every year in the middle of the year."

Qi Wuhuo asked, "See you once a year?"

"Then you can only see your mother once a year?"

The girl didn't seem to care that much: "Yes."

"But we can also write and talk on weekdays, so it's okay."

"There is also a [circular light method], it doesn't matter."

"Huh, I'm so tired from walking."

"Sit down too."

The girl sat on the bluestone next to her, then took off her shoes, and stepped into a stream of water with her socks on. This was a tributary of the water that irrigated farmland. This tributary did not irrigate farmland, and was only used for viewing. After using it, the girl exhaled and said with a smile: "This [Jiukan] water is very good for soaking your feet. It can soothe the spirit. Do you want to try it too?"

Qi Wuhuo saw the clarity and purity in the girl's eyes.

It was a kind of elation in introducing something very proud to acquaintances of the same age and friends.

He smiled slightly and said, "Thank you then..."

He took off his sword case, took off his thin-soled shoes, and put his feet into the water. Indeed, there was a cold feeling, which gave Qi Wuzhuo a soothing feeling, as if all the fatigue in his body was gone. Dispelled, he said: "Speaking of which, you haven't said yet, what does [Nine Kans] mean?"

The girl held her hands on the ground on both sides, raised her feet and stepped on the water, looking at the ripples.

Hearing this, he laughed and said, "Ah, why don't you know this allusion when you come here?"

She looked at the sky and replied casually:

"Because the Xingguan constellation composed of nine stars was originally called [Nine Kans]."

"What's there to ask?"

Qi Wuhuo was stunned.

Seeing that the water in Jiukan was crystal clear and then merged into the majestic river that Qi Wuzhuo had never seen before, everything seemed to have lasted for a long time. After thinking about it, He nodded and said: "I see, are the branches of the water flow here named after the stars in the sky?"

"Very interesting."

The girl tilted her head, without correcting a mistake, she just said doubtfully:

"Where's the fun?"

Qi Wuhuo pointed to the vast river over there and replied:

"In this case, if this is really the water of Jiukan, wouldn't we be washing our feet in the river made of stars in the sky?"

"The Tianhe washes my feet."

"It's quite romantic and atmospheric."

"Like something a god would do."

The girl's eyes lit up, she looked at the things she often did, and suddenly smiled brightly.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and then he hugged the boy in blue shirt and said loudly: "Is there any other explanation?!"

"Can you still explain it this way?!"

"So bold!"

"You are really an interesting genius!"

"No one I know can say such a thing!"

Just a girl of thirteen or fourteen years old, Qi Wuhuo had clear eyes, no embarrassment, and no evil thoughts. He replied: "I just happened to meet him at the right time." The girl patted Qi Wuhuo on the shoulder, sat back, and thought happily. Take this statement and write it down - compared to the fact that she just doesn't want to practice and is lazy, such words are undoubtedly more powerful.

You can tell your dad and teachers like this next time!

While chatting, Qi Wuzhuo gradually became sleepy, so he followed the girl's lead and lay down on the ground.

The boy in the blue shirt was biting the bud that the girl had put in his mouth. He put his arms behind his head and looked at the sky.

Strange.

he thought idly.

Why are there no stars in the sky today?
