Chapter 158: Cutting off Emotions and Desires

"What do you mean by you? What do I mean by me? You must know that when practicing, the moon is full and then it waxes, and relaxation and respite are the kingly way! It's settled!"

Before Han Yi could finish what he wanted to say, Bai Sanren snorted coldly and said solemnly.

Then he spoke again, in a gentle tone: "Besides, it's just one day, so it won't waste any time. Everything changes, and it's impossible to rest. This is the truth of heaven and earth! I heard that the lantern festival tomorrow is very lively. Let's go and take a look. It's much better than you working behind closed doors and being bored here!"

"Yes, yes!"

Qianxue nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, expressing her approval.

"I said..."

"I have already given up my dignity and asked you to walk with me, why are there so many things! Why do you have to beg me?"

Bai Sanren was furious: "On weekdays, Qianxue and I like to have fun. It's fine if you don't respect the old and love the young, but why are you still like this at this time! What's wrong with respecting the old?"

"Not bad!"

Qianxue spoke softly and nodded. Before Han Yi's eyes came over, she lowered her head and looked around.

Han Yi smiled and shook his head, teasing: "I haven't spoken yet, but you two have finished what I mean."

"What do you mean?"

Bai Sanren was happy.

"One day is nothing. Since Mr. Bai mentioned respecting the old, I will do as you say."

Han Yi smiled slightly: "But when it comes to loving the young, I don't feel the love of the seniors for me on weekdays. My words and deeds are all learned from you..."

"Haha..." Bai Sanren's old face flushed instantly when he heard this, and he could only look around and talk about other things.

Han Yi did not embarrass him. He picked up a pair of wedding couplets from the bag, opened them and looked at them for a few times. He said, "A thousand cups of fine wine bid farewell to the old year, and a thousand plum trees welcome the new year." Then he walked out of the yard.

"Wait, I didn't take the glue. This pair was carefully selected by me. You have to paste it carefully. And don't forget to hang up the five-color door money..."

Bai Sanren shouted hurriedly and chattered.

Han Yi waved his hand to indicate that he understood.

Behind him, Qianxue also quickly took a pair of wedding couplets and ran to her small house with great interest, jumping and jumping with joy.

Bai Sanren looked at the scene in front of him, and then cast his eyes on Han Yi who was busy holding the big red wedding couplets outside the yard. His heart slowly relaxed, and an old smile appeared in the depths of his eyes.

‘People have seven emotions and six desires, and things have a thousand turns. Han boy, you must remember that cultivation, cultivating the human body, is to cultivate the human heart. Don’t believe in the so-called cutting off of emotions and desires, cutting off ties and being heartless for the sake of so-called strength! That is all crooked! I am really worried that you will follow the old path of that person... Even if you don’t mention love, it is always good to have a little more worldly air on you...’

He sighed in his heart. Han Yi’s various performances made him and a figure in his memory gradually overlap, and they became indistinguishable from each other.

Back then, there was also a boy of the same age as Han Yi. Although he was not talented, he had excellent comprehension and practiced very quickly, but it was his own fault that led to...

Thinking of this, Bai Sanren seemed to have returned to that painful and self-blaming time. He stood in the yard in a daze with the cold wind, but his eyes were a little wet...

On the street at this time

There were also many people hanging lanterns and dancing in front of their yards. The whole street was red. The lively and festive atmosphere instantly dispelled the coldness of the winter snow and warmed people's hearts.

In the open space, there were a few brave and naughty children wearing thick cotton clothes, carrying long poles, and smilingly lit a string of firecrackers.

Crackling!

Suddenly, bright flames appeared, and small pieces of red paper scattered. The cheerful and peaceful sound shook half of the street.

The smoke produced by the burning firecrackers was like a haze of fog, which obscured the vision of the crowd and made it difficult for people to see the scene clearly.

But the laughter of laughter and joy was so clear and loud that even the thunder-like sound of firecrackers could not cover it up, and it resounded through the sky.

In this bustling crowd, there is a sense of leisure and joy for all ages.

Bai Sanren came back to his senses, wiped his eyes, and then his frown relaxed. He suddenly picked up a string of firecrackers and walked out of the yard.

"Let's have a good start in the New Year. Let's go and set off some firecrackers!" He said with a smile.

The next day

The sky was overcast and low. I don't know when the north wind started to howl. Silver-gray clouds were galloping in the sky. The cold current was rolling, and something was brewing.

Suddenly, some shiny things floated in the sky. It was snowing!

The north wind and snow, it was a big snow!

The heavy snow fell. It fell on the dead branches, on the edge of the stone table, and floated into the eaves, door, and bonsai black stone.

Early morning.

When Qianxue woke up from her dream, she stood up, opened the window, and leaned on the window sill to look out.

Looking around, the yard was already covered in white. Looking into the distance, the sky and the earth were covered in white. The dense snow curtain was like a thick fog, covering the intricate ridges of the house.

"It really snowed for a long time last night..." She sighed in her heart.

At this time, the weather was cold, lonely and bleak, and the surroundings were quiet, as if they were also integrated into the silence.

And after a long time, the subtle sounds of wheels, neighbors talking, and people closing doors gradually reached my ears, making people feel full of life, and the whole city seemed to wake up in this plain white scroll. It gradually became lively.

Qianxue looked at the rooms of Bai San and Han Yi. There was no movement in either room.

She counted on her fingers and figured out that there were still several hours before the lantern festival, so she closed the window that was covered with snow, yawned and returned to the warm bed, planning to take a nap and fall into a deep sleep. .

Benefit, Benefit, Benefit

I don't know how long it took, Qianxue was awakened by a knock on the door.

"Who, who? I was sleeping soundly..."

Qianxue replied in a daze.

"It's me. The lantern festival is about to start. If you don't get up, you won't have a good seat!"

Han Yiqing's soft and gentle voice came, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.

"You, you, wait a minute!"

Qianxue's face blushed shyly, and she quickly dressed and packed up.

Now, the winter dusk wind has risen, and the courtyard is shrouded in a layer of twilight, misty, but from time to time, fireworks explode into the sky, dyeing the thin silver-gray sky with a layer of golden light.

Outside the door, Han Yi was wearing one? The large white fox-skin crocodile has a tall and straight body, like a green pine. Under the illumination of the fireworks, it is full of energy and looks like a celestial being.

Qianxue couldn't help but feel a little crazy for a moment, and didn't speak for a while.

"For you..."

Han Yi smiled calmly and handed over something in his hand.

"This is?"

At this time, Qianxue came back to her senses, and what she got in her hand was a red gold lock, which was also a long-life lock that represented peace and harmony.

"This is what Baisan people ordered. He said that according to custom, during the New Year, unmarried men and women will be given a long-life lock by the elders of the family. We all have big families and wealthy families, and they are given gold locks. If they are ordinary families, I will give you a copper lock. If you can get some more, you can cut wood into a lock for a poor family."

Han Yi explained a few words to Qianxue.

"good!"

Qianxue happily untied the gold chain from the golden lock and hung it carefully around her neck. She has lived in the mountains all year round and has never seen such a rare thing. To be honest, this is the first time she has seen it seriously. It’s Chinese New Year, no wonder she’s so excited!

After everything was ready, she looked at the bronze mirror for a while, turned around, and said coquettishly: "Brother Yi, that..."

"It's so beautiful!"

Qianxue was wearing a pink shirt and skirt today, with bright eyes and white teeth, and a small gold lock hanging on her delicate neck. She looked even more beautiful and delicate, with fair skin that could be broken by a blow.

"The lantern festival has already started, and Mr. Bai is still waiting for us two. If you are like this, you will have to wait for next year!"

Before Qianxue could respond happily, Han Yi said jokingly.

"Let's go, then go quickly!"

Qianxue nodded repeatedly.

But by the time she applied a little makeup, packed up completely, and pulled Han Yi out of the hospital, the street was already crowded and lively, with many people running to tell each other and making appointments to see the lights.

The crowd was bustling and shouting was always heard.

"Cao Ji Lantern Festival, don't miss it if you are passing by~"

"Fine silk, the most popular pattern in the palace, come and see~~"

"Fat Wang's new signature, fruit wood smoked roast duck, served with half a catty of rice cake, it's so plump for you to eat, come here..."

It was the sound of vendors hawking along the street, bargaining with customers, and the sounds of tourists talking and laughing.

There are red lanterns hanging high everywhere, and the colorful door flower gallery is decorated with lanterns and colors, which is dazzling.

Qianxue was walking among the crowd, a little confused, but couldn't help being excited. Her beautiful eyes couldn't help but look left and right, as if it was the first time she saw such a lively city life, and everything felt novel.

"Boss, how much do these accessories cost?"

She jumped up and down, asking the stall owner like a little rabbit.

"Not expensive, not expensive, a jade hairpin costs one hundred and fifty, and a jade bracelet costs three taels of silver. By the way, there are also fine jewelry carefully handcrafted by Master Fucheng..." Wearing a short The boss of the leather hat looked at the clothes of Qianxue and the other three and said with a smile.

Later, he added: "There will be no discounts for small business transactions..."

"Oh, let me take a look..." Qianxue frowned and felt embarrassed.

"Master Bai, let me tell you, even if I am obsessed with cultivation, I am not a man of grass, wood, and stone. Although you hide it very well, I feel that after the breakthrough, you are not only unhappy, but also worried all the time...

You still want to marry me and insist on dragging me into the world, are you afraid of something with all these arrangements..."

The Bai San people were shocked when they heard this. The crowd was crowded at this time, but no one could brush the corners of their clothes.

Because, these words that were so close to each other only circulated in the ears of the two of them.
