Borrowing Moonlight
"Huh?"
At the foot of Yingping Peak, Fang Zelin was stunned for a moment when he heard the familiar melody.
Turning my head to look into the mist, I immediately saw a large ship floating on the Yongding River.
Recently, there have been more and more boats on the Yongding River, and more and more people are coming to find this place.
Fang Zelin could see it clearly.
Fortunately, these people were searching quietly, not making a big fuss.
Under these circumstances, Fang Zelin didn't pay much attention to it.
What Fang Zelin didn't expect was that there was such a familiar face on the river today.
Xiao Qin was currently holding a steaming hot spirit rice ball and eating it in small bites.
She was slightly taken aback when she heard the melody start. She had heard it many times from the immortal master and was very familiar with it.
"It seems that a mortal woman from long ago played this piece. And the people who came this time also know it?"
Xiao Qin took a bite of the small rice ball, tilted her head, and looked at the large ship in the mist, her eyes full of doubt.
Upon hearing this, Fang Zelin couldn't help but pat the boy's head. "The person who came is her."
He had just opened his divine eye and taken a look. Although the other person had become an old woman, he could still vaguely make out what she looked like when she was young.
In addition, the other party also had that pearl on them.
This is sufficient proof that the person who came was Shang Lewei.
Back in the day, the other person was also a master of the zither.
"Oh, it's someone I know!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Qin immediately understood; no wonder.
The other party would specifically play this tune when they came to the Yongding River; they wouldn't do this if they weren't acquaintances.
"Should we meet this acquaintance? Considering the time, she's probably nearing the end of her life."
Ordinary people live for several decades, and very few can live past a hundred years.
Therefore, the other person's age is indeed about right at this point.
If we don't meet today, it may be goodbye forever.
"Since we've met once before, let's arrange a meeting."
Fang Zelin paused for a moment, then nodded.
"But let's wait a bit. There are quite a few more people looking for this place now. If we bring them in now, their cultivation will be disrupted from now on. Let's wait until the moonlight comes on before bringing them in."
Fang Zelin casually gave the order, indicating that the deer demon could do it later.
He, meanwhile, held the ancient book beside him and continued reading.
He sat quietly at the stone table, still looking like a scholar.
The white deer beside her kept these words in mind, waiting for the sun to set and the moon to rise again.
Seeing that it was almost time, they walked across the water to the large ship.
Immediately, the white deer took flight on the wind, dodging the servants and thugs outside the large ship, and quietly arrived at Shang Lewei's house.
At this moment, Shang Lewei felt a mixture of anticipation and nervousness.
The reason she chose to stay overnight was entirely because she had been here before.
When she met that immortal, it was at night.
Whether we'll get to see that immortal master depends on tonight.
With something to look forward to, she naturally found it hard to fall asleep.
Just as she was wondering if she would be able to see that immortal that night, a gust of wind suddenly blew by, causing Shang Lewei to startle slightly.
He was about to get up and close the window.
The wind on the river was quite chilly at night.
But as soon as Shang Lewei moved, she sensed that something was wrong.
That's not right. She remembered very clearly that her daughter had closed all the windows when she left the room.
This was specially made by her daughter because she was worried that her health was weak.
Since the windows are closed, where is the wind coming from?
Shang Lewei suddenly looked to the side and quickly saw a white deer that had appeared there at some unknown time.
Upon seeing the white deer, Shang Lewei was reminded of the deer and tiger she had seen beside the immortal.
"Deer Fairy!"
Upon seeing the white deer, Shang Lewei was immediately overjoyed.
Seeing the white deer, it must mean the immortal knew she had arrived!
"Don't shout nonsense. I'm just Demon Cultivator under the tutelage of an immortal master; I can't be called an immortal."
Bai Lu was startled by Shang Lewei's shout.
How far is this from Yingping Peak? If the Immortal Master wanted to hear it, he would have heard it by now.
With its current level of cultivation and attainment, how dare it claim to be an immortal!
Hearing this tone, Shang Lewei knew she had mispronounced the name and was about to correct herself when Bai Lu continued.
"The Immortal Master said that you have met him once before, and since you are here, you should meet him. If you are willing, you can ride on my back, and I will take you to the front of Yingping Peak."
Upon hearing this, Shang Lewei was overjoyed and responded before going to Bai Lu's side.
He made a sound to Bai Lu, then sat on Bai Lu's back as Bai Lu knelt down.
As soon as she settled down, a gentle breeze blew by, and the white deer carried her to the Yongding River.
The four hooves pounded the water, creating ripples.
The white deer was surrounded by an unusual white light, giving it a somewhat holy feel.
Before long, Bai Lu led Shang Lewei through the white mist and arrived at Yingping Peak.
The moon was just rising, making the area in front of Yingping Peak appear somewhat dark.
Seeing that the person had been brought, Fang Zelin took out a piece of paper from the side.
Then I drew a moon on it.
"By the Lunar Star Lord, this disciple of the Daoist Sect requests permission to use the moon's essence."
Fang Zelin held up the moon he had just drawn, and the moon on the paper immediately lit up.
Fang Zelin reached out and took the moon out, then casually hung it on a nearby tree branch.
In an instant, the area in front of Yingping Peak, which had been somewhat gloomy, became as bright as day.
"This Law Technique is alright."
Fang Zelin glanced at the moon beside him and nodded in satisfaction.
This Law Technique was something he figured out on his own.
In my previous life, I had seen some similar Law Technique and wondered if I could use them.
Having cultivated in front of Yingping Peak for over forty years, Fang Zelin would sometimes ponder these things in his spare time.
Now, the Law Technique can be considered complete.
Upon seeing this, Shang Lewei, who had just arrived in front of Yingping Peak, was immediately stunned.
My mind went completely blank, like it was filled with mush. What kind of Law Technique was this?
"Can we steal the moon?"
Looking at the bright moon hanging on the tree branch beside her, she was utterly astonished.
As expected of immortal techniques!
"Please have a seat."
Fang Zelin turned around and waved to Shang Lewei in front of him.
Fang Zelin was quite friendly towards the woman in front of him.
If it weren't for the other party's help in playing it back then, he wouldn't be able to hear that melody, Falling into the Mortal World, so often now.
