Chapter 236 Stone Taoist and the Sea
Mountain Cloud Pavilion
The mist is as thin as silk, bringing a sense of moisture.
There was a small stove in the pavilion with a little charcoal on it.
Although the fire was dim, the spring water was surging and rising, as if there was a dragon coiled in it.
"Boy, please fan me quickly so I can warm up this old wine..."
A man waved his hand.
The young Taoist priest Yu Xing, who was standing nearby, stepped forward and fanned himself with a palm-leaf fan.
There was not much noise, but after a slight movement, the charcoal fire rose up like a snake!
Suddenly, the entire Yunting was enveloped in a warm flame.
"You, an old Taoist, are not as lazy as before."
The Taoist sitting on the other side of the pavilion glanced at the Taoist.
The young Taoist priest Yu Xing was fanning himself while secretly observing the strange Taoist priest.
He only heard from his master that the Taoist's Buddhist name was "Stubborn Stone".
Although it is not beautiful, it has a great reputation outside.
Winter has passed by now, but the spring chill is still at its peak.
The temperature, which had just stretched a few days ago, suddenly began to rise again and quickly reversed.
The humidity on the mountain is even more unbearable.
If it were an ordinary person, he would have to wear a thick coat.
But this stone Taoist priest was bare-chested, revealing his round, muscular body.
"You stubborn stone, you also say that the old Taoist priest is lazy?"
A group of people laughed loudly.
He has known Shi Dao Ren for a long time, and compared with that old friend, he seems closer to him.
After all, this guy is a sincere person, unlike other people who are calculating and calculative...
"I won't tell you much."
Shi Daoren waved his hand and pulled the girl who had been hiding behind him to the front.
Then he pointed at a person and said:
"This is your uncle, come and greet him."
After the girl timidly said hello to the Taoist priest, the Taoist priest looked at him and said:
"This is my new disciple. She is not from this place."
"I saw her shipwrecked while I was resting on the sea."
"I wanted to send her to shore, but I found out she was also talented."
"I asked someone to calculate and found out that all her blood relatives had passed away, so I decided to keep her."
"You also know that my skills are innate. If ordinary people practice them, they are difficult to understand, so it is inconvenient for me to teach her."
"Brother, please teach me a little bit, just to understand the meaning of the law!"
The stone Taoist pulled the girl closer and he said without hesitation.
The Taoist looked at the Stone Taoist, said nothing, and just looked at the girl carefully.
After a long while, a Taoist nodded and said:
"Forget it, I owe you this, you idiot."
Then, a Taoist said to the young Taoist priest Yu Xing next to him:
"Tong'er, take this little sister to the guest room and tell your master."
The young Taoist priest Yu Xing nodded and walked away with the girl.
Looking at the two people walking away, Taoist Shi seemed to want to say something.
"Wait a minute, let's not talk about the rest for now."
A Taoist stopped talking.
Then he pulled out a pair of bracelets from his sleeves.
"You once regretted that the bracelet was lost in the underworld."
"Last night, the damp and cold were unbearable. I couldn't help it and went down to the Netherworld to warm my feet by the underground fire."
"I didn't expect to find this bracelet."
The Taoist put the bracelet on the table, then twirled his beard lightly and said, with no happy expression on his face.
"Oh!"
"You know I'm a sincere person, don't fool me, Old Shi."
"There is no Jiuyou here anymore. Even my new disciple knows that!"
"You old Taoist priest, I'm afraid you can't find the bracelet even if you go into the center of the earth!"
Taoist Shi snorted coldly, then couldn't suppress his curiosity and took a closer look.
The more I look at it, the weirder it seems...
"That's not right. These are not the bracelets she left in Jiuyou."
"I think it looks like the twin brother of your bracelet!"
Taoist Shi couldn't help but scratched his head.
He looked at the man next to him suspiciously, and seeing that he had a calm expression, he knew that the other party was playing a trick on him again.
"Alright, Sanhua disciple, stop teasing your Uncle Shi."
"Come and pay your respects to your Uncle Shi."
A Taoist saw this and said with a laugh.
Afterwards, Taoist Shi saw that one of the pair of bracelets on the table moved suddenly!
There was a faint flash of light, and then a child with red lips and sideburns was seen standing next to him.
"Uncle Shi."
Shi Daoren's eyes widened instantly, and he slapped his thigh and stood up.
He pointed at a Taoist priest, then at the boy, moved his mouth for a long time, and then said with emotion:
"You are such a good Taoist!"
"I thought you were just drinking bitter wine at home and enjoying the spring breeze, but I didn't expect you to come up with new tricks!"
"Isn't this the famous Eight-Nine Mysterious Skill of your sect?"
Taoist Shi looked at Taoist Yi and asked.
"It is the Eight-Nine Mysterious Art..."
A man nodded.
"My disciple was born with the ability to change his form, but I just managed to do it by sheer luck."
"It can be considered as a chance..."
A man said again.
Taoist Shi looked at the boy next to him and clicked his tongue in surprise.
Which practitioner does not know the name of the Eight-Nine Profound Art?
He, Taoist Shi, also had such a beautiful dream in the past.
After all, they were both born from stone. If the monkey could learn to transform, why couldn’t he?
Later it seemed that the monkey was still a monkey after all, and was not of the same kind as this heavy, stubborn rock...
"What a coincidence!"
Suddenly, Shi Daoren seemed to have thought of something.
He turned to look at a Taoist priest and told him about what he had seen and heard at sea.
It turned out that when he was rescuing his little disciple, Taoist Shi vaguely saw huge waves in the water.
This is not a strange thing in the deep sea.
But at that time the sky was dark and there was thunder.
At this time, Taoist Shi was traveling by means of a leaden cloud in the sky.
He was in the clouds and vaguely saw a huge python rolling in the water.
This was considered a strange thing, so Taoist Shi naturally gave up his ambition and went down to see what was going on.
But before the python was found, a girl was seen holding a wooden barrel, almost swallowed by the huge waves!
Although Shi Daoren is a solid person, he is not a heartless and decisive person.
When Shi Dao Ren rescued the girl and went to look for it again, there was no trace of the python anymore.
"Later I thought about it and wondered where the python came from in the sea."
"I think it's a giant dragon that came out to get some fresh air!"
"It's been hundreds of years since I last encountered a wild dragon that wasn't being used by someone."
"I didn't expect to meet him, but I missed the mask..."
Taoist Shi sighed.
"Since your disciple has learned the Eight-Nine Mysterious Arts, you can go there and learn for a while."
"If I encounter it, even if I can't subdue it, I can still practice the transformation of a dragon!"
"The dragon on the dragon and tiger is also a man without temper. Don't learn from him and change his appearance!"
Taoist Shi turned his head and looked at the boy next to him, and he felt emotional again.
"Dragon?"
A man chuckled and said nothing more.
He simply took out the wine jug that he had thrown into the small stove, and then took out three small cups from his sleeve and filled them up.
"Don't say it, don't say it, it's better to taste the bitter wine of the experienced."
Afterwards, the three of them started drinking at Yunting.
While drinking, a man suddenly asked:
"Has your disciple taken a Buddhist name?"
"Yes! Yes! I saw that she had to cut off her worldly ties with the sea, so I named her 'Hai'."
"If she likes, Shi Hai and Fa Hai can let her go!"
"And fill it up!"
The stone Taoist said happily while drunk...
