Chapter 56 Stars
Taoist boy on the mountain
Qingyue sat on the slate, looking at half of the missing moon in the sky and calculating the days.
Well, today is August 8th, and it's almost August 15th. On August 15th, it's time to send moon cakes on the mountain again. Although I don't want to eat them every year, I want to eat them when the festival is over. This year, I secretly got more, and then I didn't eat it, stayed, and waited until I wanted to eat it. I put the moon cakes in the dry cellar, which can be kept for a long time.
Qingyue is counting things. This little smart idea has brought her a lot of happiness.
"Qingyue, what are you laughing at?" Qingyue suddenly heard someone behind her, so she hurriedly turned her head to look. It turned out to be a Taoist priest I didn't know. This Taoist priest is middle-aged and very vulgar, not at all like those immortal Taoist masters in the Taoist temple.
"I didn't laugh anything. Who are you? How do you know my name is Qingyue? Qingyue said this and suddenly realized that something was wrong: "I didn't laugh out loud just now, or did I turn my back to you? How do you know I'm laughing?"
"Hahaha, little girl. Taoist priest, I will calculate. I know 500 years ago and 500 years later. Even if I arrive, you will laugh here secretly. Besides, you are thinking about the mooncakes on August 15, aren't you? The Taoist priest's voice became more and more amiable.
"You know that." Qingyue felt a little helpless. If she wanted to get more moon cakes, she had to play some tricks to let the Taoist priest know. If she told others, it would be very bad: "Well, you won't disclose it to others. I'll get an extra one for you, do you think it's okay?
"Haha, the little girl is also smart and frank. I didn't say that you wanted to get more, but you took the initiative to say it. Poverty is quite predestined with you. Well, you can ask me a question, and I'll help you figure it out to help me get more moon cakes. What do you think? The Taoist priest smiled when he spoke, and seemed to be much more friendly than many Taoist priests. Qingyue was not so resistant in her heart.
Well, this Taoist priest said that he could count. He didn't see my face just now and knew I was laughing. Besides, there are many people who can count on this Longhu Mountain. Qingyue also tried to let those Taoist priests calculate for themselves, but they said countless good words, but those stinky Taoists always used a sentence "the secrets cannot be leaked" to send themselves, which is really abominable.
Now, someone actually wants to take the initiative to answer their own questions. That's great! But what should I ask? Qingyue suddenly felt very confused. Most of her memories belong to Longhu Mountain, and her world is only a corner of Longhu Mountain. What do I want to know about the past and the present? I seem to want to know a lot, but these questions are all hazy, and it is not a waste of this precious opportunity to ask these questions.
Qingyue thought about it again and again, and finally made up her mind. Taoist priest, I want to ask you, what is fate?
"Fate?" The Taoist priest was obviously stunned: "I didn't expect the little girl to ask such a profound question. This question is difficult to answer, so before I answer it, I want to ask you why?
"I played at the Devil's Hall on the right porch some time ago and suddenly felt something passing by me. I kept chasing it into the door of the hall, and then found that several words had disappeared on the stone tablet in the hall. After that, I asked my brothers what was going on. They didn't tell me, but shook their heads and told me that it was fate. They all bullied me, a girl, and ignorant. So, I want to ask the Taoist priest, what is fate? This is a rare real doubt in Qingyue's heart, so she decided to take this opportunity to ask what fate is, so as to show off in front of her brothers.
"So that's it." The Taoist priest pondered for a while, and then said, "It seems that this is all fate, okay. Qingyue, look up at the stars in the sky. The Taoist priest spoke and pointed his hand to the sky.
Qingyue followed the Taoist priest's finger, and the Taoist priest's hand brushed as if he were writing, but when he looked carefully, he was drawing the direction of the stars in the sky with his hand. In the night sky on the eighth day of August, the moon is half absent and the stars are shining. The star was drawn by the Taoist priest's fingers, as if it was no longer the same, but constantly moving and changing.
"Qingyue, did you see it? We are all stars in the sky. If you sit here for one night, you will find that these stars are moving and have their own tracks. If you decide to realize in the future and sit here like your brothers for a year or more, you will find that as the seasons change, the stars in front of you will continue to change. For example." The Taoist priest's hand pointed to a very low position. Qingyue's eyes followed his fingers and found that there was nothing, which was blank.
"My Taoist priest, I didn't see anything." Qingyue felt very confused.
"It's autumn now, and the brightest star will rise there after the time, called Sirius. But in a few months, in winter, even at this time, Sirius will appear in the sky and compete with the bright moon. Do you understand?" The Taoist priest suddenly turned his head to ask Qingyue.
"I don't understand. Taoist priest, why do you like to play riddles like my brothers? No, no, you must make it clear. Qingyue felt a little unhappy.
"The stars in the sky are like us, and the trajectory is like fate. Although the trajectory of the stars is different, it is generally in the same direction, and they all revolve around the North Star; for us, the trajectory is also different, but The Taoist priest's expression was kind, and his eyes flashed with a gentle light: "The same way, and the end is often there, and it has never changed. Well, Qingyue, that's all I can say. This is not a riddle, but a lot of things that need to be understood by you. All I can give you is a direction. What you can find in this direction depends on your creation and opportunity. Hahaha." The Taoist priest laughed and touched his beard with his hand, but he didn't have a beard and scratched it. This ridiculous action made Qingyue happy.
Qingyue's child's temper, it is enough for someone to talk to her seriously. As for whether it can really solve the problem in the end, it doesn't matter.
"That Taoist priest, what are you doing here? The Taoist priests in the Taoist temple are also practicing at this moment." Qingyue suddenly thought of this question. According to reason, at this time every day, the whole night sky of Longhu Mountain is hers alone. She can sit here, think about things and laugh at herself. If this Taoist priest comes every day, won't he become the night sky of two people?
"Oh, this is to wait for others. Little girl, don't worry, I will come this day, and I won't come every day. Hahaha." The Taoist priest's smile was a little proud.
Once again, I was seen through my mind, and Qingyue was a little unhappy. If you know it, you have to say it and show that you can calculate it. Several of the senior brothers can also calculate. They are not as good as you Taoist priests. They must have just learned it and then came out to fool me as a little girl. Well, I ignore you. Let's see who you are waiting for.
Qingyue made up her mind, stopped talking and sat there angrily. And the Taoist priest was not talking, standing there motionless. Qingyue sometimes peeked at him, only looking at the Taoist priest just looking up at the starry sky and thinking about it.
"Master, I'm back. You've been waiting for a long time." The words suddenly made Qingyue, who was stunned, suddenly wake up and turned her head to look. I don't know when the Taoist priest behind her became two. In addition to the middle-aged Taoist priest just now, another person appeared.
You can see clearly by the moonlight. The Taoist priest holds the dust in his hand and the yin and yang flag. The most interesting thing is that there are bells on the yin and yang flag. When the Taoist priest speaks, the bell makes a crisp and pleasant sound, which is very pleasant. However, this person is not like the person on Longhu Mountain at all. He is strong, with a broad nose and a wide mouth, and his beard is not neat. Has there been a new group of Taoist priests in Longhu Mountain that I have never seen before? The crescent looked a little confused.
"Is everything going well? Move the mountain." The middle-aged Taoist priest asked.
"Well, it went well. He accepted it." The Taoist priest named Moving Mountain bowed respectfully.
Move the mountain, haha, this name is really funny. How can anyone move the mountain? Er, wait, mountain mover?! I heard from my brothers that he was a disciple of Master Zhang Tianshi. The Taoist who moved the mountain called him Master, and the person who had been talking to me just now was... Zhang Tianshi!
Qingyue was stunned by this fact, and she didn't know what to do, so she had to be stunned there.
"The eighth day of August, think about it, that thing will play today." Zhang Tianshi muttered and stretched out his hand twice: "It's not only today, but now!"
"Master, I don't understand. Why should you give the treasure to a star officer who fell into the mortal world? There are many such people. We can find more than 100 people now. Why can Wu Song get your preferential treatment? The Taoist priest moved the mountain to ask for advice.
Because he changed his fate. In the Temple of Voldemort, his name has been removed, and the Heavenly Injury Star has broken his fate and is happy to help him through this disaster. I also want to see if he can escape from the four words 'return together'. Zhang Tianshi smiled leisurely, but this smile was not happy. All right, move the mountain. It's time for us to go back. Goodbye, little girl. I'll give you back the starry sky of the night.
Give it back to me? How to return it? I'm going to bed, and I have to get up early tomorrow. Qingyue was wondering, but Zhang Tianshi and the mountain movers quickly disappeared in front of their eyes, and there was no trace, as if they had never appeared at all.
Forget it, what do they have to do with me? Zhang Tianshi and his disciples are as insignificant as I look at them. Qingyue's heart suddenly became empty and ignored it, but continued to look up at the stars all over the sky. But the current situation stunned her.
The stars in the sky are running backwards in a way that can be seen by the eyes. When all this stopped, time had returned to the afternoon, and the sun hung in the western sky.
Qingyue looked at all this and was slightly stunned.
