Chapter 009 - Flower, Wine and Moon

　　Li Yunsheng was also shocked by the scene before him. 　　When he poured the twentieth quintal of water into the tree pool, and was being happy in his heart, an indescribably refreshing wind swept over from the top of the mountain, blowing Li Yunsheng's heart and soul, and it was at this moment that the acacia trees overhead, one by one, seemingly out of thin air, began to blossom at a speed that could be seen by Li Yunsheng's naked eye, and in about half an incense stick's time, the original lush and verdant big acacia trees changed into a look of ironwood and silver blossoms. 　　"Could it be that after pouring twenty buckets full of water, this old locust tree will bloom?" 　　Li Yunsheng stood under the tree and muttered. 　　"That's right, twenty quarts of water from Qiyue Tan will make this old acacia tree blossom." 　　An old man's voice suddenly came, Li Yunsheng was startled and thought that it was this old acacia tree talking, but he immediately heard footsteps, only to see Yang Wanli walking up with Li Changgeng and a few of his senior brothers. 　　"Master, you're here." Li Yunsheng walked up and bowed. 　　Yang Wanli's eyes narrowed slightly as he nodded approvingly. 　　"Is this our new young master brother? Clear-eyed, not bad, not bad, our White Cloud Temple finally has someone who can hold up the facade." This one who opened his mouth saw Li Yunsheng looking at himself with a puzzled face, so he laughed and said, "I'm the master's eldest disciple, Zhang An Tai, you can call me your eldest senior brother from now on." 　　"Li Yunsheng has met Eldest Senior Brother." Li Yunsheng felt that he was a bit rude and said with some embarrassment. 　　Looking at his formal appearance, Zhang An Tai remembered something then said with a self-condemning face, "You didn't come at the right time, all these senior brothers were busy grabbing the immortal grain, they didn't have time to let you get to know each one of them, let me introduce them to you." 　　Saying this, he pointed to a white-faced, thin and tall man standing beside him, "This is the second senior brother, Li Ran, the fourth senior brother has gone to the Immortal Mansion with the fifth senior brother to talk about trading." 　　Li Ran put down a cloth bag he was carrying on his shoulder and smiled at Li Yunsheng: 　　"Aiya, this old acacia tree, we watered it for more than ten years, I didn't expect that it actually blossomed in the hands of the youngest senior brother, the youngest senior brother's luck is really good." 　　"This is not luck, I have told you, watering ten quintals can be, twenty quintals is a great merit, you who watered full twenty quintals? All of you just know how to complete the task, but you didn't think of doing your best." 　　Yang Wanli shouted at Li Ran with a cold face. 　　As soon as Yang Wanli turned his head, Li Ran made a face like Yang Wanli's expression, then smiled and winked at Li Yunsheng. 　　"Don't be a mother-in-law and introduce us, we'll see each other every day in the future, we'll know each other if we meet, where's Lao San? The table is set up let's eat and talk some words!" Yang Wanli waved his hand and said impatiently. 　　Li Changgeng, who had been hiding at the very back, was now standing there with his back to a large table and a red face. 　　Twilight was rising, a round of crescent moon hanging overhead, the stars in the sky and the old acacia tree's full of silver blossoms reflected each other, the White Cloud Guan masters and disciples were seated around the table, which was full of fruits, vegetables and dishes brought by a few of their senior brothers. 　　"We, White Cloud Guan, don't have so many rules, especially above this dinner table." 　　Yang Wanli did not know when he had already poured himself a large cup full of wine, and after saying this sentence, he drank it all in one go, and then said, "I said a long time ago that if anyone among the disciples of the White Cloud Guan can make this acacia tree blossom, it will be a great merit." 　　With that, he handed Li Yunsheng an exquisite wine pot, "This pot of White Cloud Brew is now yours." 　　Bai Yun Guan produced immortal grains, and Bai Yun Guan master Yang Wanli was good at brewing wine, especially this White Cloud Brew, even many big shots in the Qing Yun Immortal Mansion came to beg for it. 　　"Old man you're fooling people with this wine of yours again, Old Six's so much merit is worth a pot of wine?" The second oldest, Li Ran, bristled. 　　"This is White Cloud Brew, what do you know!" 　　Yang Wanli poured himself another cup and drank it all in one go. The people were arguing with each other, in the middle, the eldest brother even came out to persuade a few sentences, in the end, the three actually started to fight over the amount of alcohol, looking at Li Yunsheng dumbfounded, where is this still like a master and disciple? Drinking buddies was more or less. 　　"Our White Cloud Temple's rules, there are no masters and disciples at the drinking table." 　　The one who spoke was the oldest third Li Changgeng who hadn't said a word, he picked up a large bowl of wine and said to Li Yunsheng with apologies, "Before I thought you were one of those worldly children who came to mingle again, what an uncharacteristic thing to do, this cup of wine will be regarded as senior brother's reparation from me to you." 　　Without waiting for Li Yunsheng to say anything, Li Changgeng drank it all in one go. 　　Li Yunsheng didn't know how to respond, he also picked up the wine cup and took a sip shaking his head, "Senior brother didn't do anything wrong, there's no need to apologize to me." 　　"I'm even more ashamed that Junior Brother has such a temperament at such a young age." 　　Li Changgeng was another large cup of wine down, the words he had been holding in his stomach in one breath could not help but feel relieved. 　　"However, the first time I saw you going up the mountain you were out of breath, but the second time I saw you again you became as fit as a fiddle, why is that?" 　　"Ah, I also have to thank senior brother for giving me the book." Li Yunsheng took out the book of qi practicing secrets from his chest. "After I walked according to the breathing and exhaling method stated here I went up the mountain much faster and less tired." 　　"You said you read this book yourself?" 　　Li Changgeng was stunned, read the book is easy, but can take a look through this is simply a hundred years of rare encounter of the wizards ah. 　　"Our sixth senior brother but has a Tong Ming Dao heart, any dharma is understood at a single point." 　　Zhang An Tai, the eldest senior brother over there, said proudly with a bit of drunkenness. 　　This "Tong Ming Dao Xin" caused Li Changgeng to stand up in shock. 　　"Really?!" 　　He looked at Li Yunsheng with a surprised face. 　　"Old man! How did you abduct a Tong Ming Dao Xin to our Bai Yun Guan, isn't this an outrage?" 　　Li Changgeng pointed at Yang Wanli with an angry face. 　　"Storming the heavens? Old man I don't care ...... what Tongming Dao heart, I here ...... not lack of Tongming Dao heart ...... only lack of strength as big as a cow... ...Vomit ......" 　　Yang Wanli was already so drunk at this point that he couldn't even speak properly. 　　Seeing this, Li Yunsheng hurriedly explained, "Third Senior Brother, although I am a Tongming Dao Heart, my immortal vein is a rootless immortal vein that cannot be cultivated ......" 　　Although Li Yunsheng until now also do not understand the rootless immortal vein in the end what is the problem, but roughly understand, as long as you have a rootless immortal vein even if you are a Tongming Taoist heart for the cultivation of the road will not help. 　　After hearing this, Li Changgeng froze for a moment and then decidedly said with a look of regret, "It's a pity, it's really a pity!" He immediately comforted Li Yunsheng by saying, "It's nothing to have no rooted immortal veins, we at Bai Yun Guan don't care about that, several of our brothers and sisters are not qualified, the other blessed disciples of Qiu Shui Sect laugh at us for being drunken, but how do they know the pleasure we get from drinking wine in large bowls and eating meat in large chunks? We eat immortal food and fruits every day, and we still live forever!" 　　"The words are rough, the way of the Tao is originally a vain thing, I've heard of many seniors in the sect living in seclusion in the mountains for a hundred years, once they leave the mountain gate their wives and children have died, and their relatives and friends are all gone, so what joys do you have in living forever for one person?" Eldest Senior Brother's wine seemed to have sobered up a bit. 　　"Eldest senior brother has a point, in this Bai Yun Guan, I inserted a seedling in the field to harvest a spike of rice in the next year, this is the real thing!" Li Changgeng became more and more excited as he spoke. 　　"But aren't you guys curious about where this spike of wheat came from?" Li Yunsheng finally spoke after listening for a long time. 　　"What is the reason for the ears of wheat to be born? Hahaha, this is a matter for the heavens to take care of, what does it have to do with us?" Li Changgeng laughed out loud. 　　"But I want to ask the heavens." Li Yunsheng said secretly in his heart. 　　Li Ran, the second elder brother who had been lying down on the side, looked up at Li Yunsheng, then proceeded to lie down again. 　　As the crescent moon reached the middle of the sky, and several people had almost finished drinking, Eldest Senior Brother Zhang Antai and Li Changgeng helped the drunken Yang Wanli to go down the mountain first. 　　"You like reading a lot?" Li Ran, whose face was no longer drunk at this time, pointed to the book of qi practicing techniques on the table. 　　"Uh-huh." Li Yunsheng nodded. 　　"You want to cultivate?" 　　"Yes." Li Yunsheng did not hide it. 　　"You probably don't know much about the meaning of the Rootless Immortal Vein, do you?" Li Ran stretched his back and looked up at the crescent moon and said, "If you compare the human body to a granary, and the food is compared to the heaven and earth spiritual qi, the lower grade immortal vein is a small granary that can store but a few tens of quintals of food, and the upper grade immortal vein is not the same as he can store hundreds of thousands of quintals of food, and the rootless immortal vein is like a granary with a hole punched by rats, and even if you have a big granary, the amount of food that comes in will leak out, and even if you are bigger than others, the amount of food will leak out. leak out, even if you work ten million times harder than others to store no grain it's still futile." 　　"Then wouldn't it be better to patch up that hole?" Li Yunsheng replied without thinking. 　　"Patch it up? Hahaha!" Li Ran laughed. 　　"That's the funniest answer I've ever heard." He patted Li Yunsheng's head, "Since you like to read and can read, I suggest that in the future, instead of eating your monthly immortal food, you replace it all with merit tags, and take the merit tags to read books at Yellow Crane Tower." 　　"Doesn't the White Cloud Temple have any books?" 　　"They're all books that teach you about farming." 　　"I want to read these books too." 　　"As you wish." 　　"In the future, if there's something I don't understand, can I ask you, Second Senior Brother?" 　　"Remember to bring a jug of good wine." 　　"Uh-huh!" 　　"By the way, the old man gave you that jug of wine, it can be exchanged for 10,000 public morality tags, but ......" Li Ran smiled wryly, "You might have ten more years of longevity if you drink it."
