Chapter 91: Water Moon Silence 23
readx;? Zhao Ran shuddered involuntarily, he had always thought that he was a bone crawling out of the coffin, the most absurd and weird existence in the world, but it was not until this moment that he realized that he was not bizarre. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Where did the Dao Master come from?" Zhao Ran suddenly asked.
Yang Wan said with a sad face: "A few days ago, I suddenly heard that a large number of relics gathered to a place called Zhuzi Town, I pondered that most of it was related to the whereabouts of Taiyin, so I also followed, and heard some strange rumors, I wanted to come back to discuss with the little sage, but I happened to encounter one of them." ”
"What kind of place is Zhuzi Town?" asked Zhao Ran.
Yang Wan shook his head: "I don't know where it is, the people who have gone in the remnant clan have gone and never returned, Zhang Xiaobai of the Ten Sons Clan has made such a news, I don't know what the purpose of the God Clan is." ”
Zhaoran couldn't help but scratch his scalp, hoping that Xiaobai was okay now.
After they said a few words, Yang Wan and Jiuru walked aside to talk, and Meng Chengtian also exchanged a few words, it seems that he also knows Yang Wan.
Shen Fangshan looked at their backs and said to Zhaoran, "Aren't you curious about the true origin of Mr.?"
Zhaoran glanced at him: "I see that your master seems to believe in Mr. very much, why do you, a disciple who has just apprenticed, doubt your master?"
Shen Fangshan looked at him and said, "This is the difference between me and you, you have never chased only the part that interests you, and you have complete trust in the person you want to trust." ”
Zhao Ran looked at this person quite interestingly: "That is, you don't trust all the people around you, you don't trust that old way, but you worship him as a teacher, you don't trust the head of the homeless class, and you don't trust the Wurong ...... who regards you as an elder brother."
Shen Fang's handsome face was faint: "Complete trust is actually a manifestation of irresponsibility. Have you ever thought about it, maybe the gentleman is waiting for you to ask why, and wants you to find the answer. ”
Zhaoran looked at Jiuru, who was listening intently to what Yang Wan Daoist was talking to, but his eyes kept looking at the forest of human heads standing outside.
Only then did he turn to Shen Fanglin and said, "What about you, you put the purpose first in everything, why do you worship the Sheep's Horn Beard Daoist as a teacher?"
"Actually, the master found me......" Shen Fangxi turned around and glanced at Yang Wan before saying, "The master has been looking for the secrets of the stranger for many years, and following the person who knows the most is always the easiest to find the truth, isn't it?"
Zhao Ran thought about it for a while, and sneered: "Sometimes the person who knows the most is always the easiest to go astray, and this is the correct explanation. ”
Shen Fangshan said lightly: "Don't you still feel that you haven't gone astray? In fact, you also know very well in your heart that something went wrong with you, so that we will encounter a situation like the one we have today." It's like, you should be the same person as me, but now you exist on your own. ”
Zhao Ran turned to look at him and said, "Become you? I am two different people from you, I may be so bad, that is not good, but this is the same as me Zhaoran, you are Shen Fanglone, completely different, why should I become you?"
"Because that's what you wanted. Shen Fangshan looked at Zhao Ran and said, "Buddha Yin said, this is the purpose of your coming here. ”
Zhaoran turned his head and looked at Shen Fangxi: "Then go and tell you that Buddha, he was wrong." ”
----
Zhaoran sat on the stone outside the cave and looked at the human head fruits hanging on the woods, those human head fruits had empty eyes, but their faces had their own expressions, crying and laughing, as if to remind others that although they hung on the trees, they were alive.
He quietly withdrew his hand from his sleeve, and his entire right hand was disillusioned, and he was disappearing.
A flock of birds suddenly flew in the sky, and it was clear that his eyes lit up, and Lu Tian's large-billed sparrow.
The large-billed finches were specially researched by Lu Tian to be a guard for Zhao Ran, and when he saw Zhao Ran at this moment, they hovered above his head.
Seeing Lu Tian's large-billed sparrow, although he didn't know his condition, Zhao Ran could also infer that Lu Tian at least didn't turn into a human head fruit on a branch. Not only did he not become a human head, but he was still looking for him.
The large-billed finch is a pigeon's beak with a finch body, and it must also be a piggyback.
Zhaoran whistled, and a large-billed finch circled down and came to a stop on his shoulder.
Zhao Ran burned a stick with a flint, then took out a handkerchief and tore out a strip, and wrote on it: I am in Xishan, he thought about it for a while and added another sentence, there is a bamboo tube hidden in the southwest corner of the courtyard of the academy to fetch it.
Letting go of the large-billed finch, Zhaoran stood on the stone and watched its wings fly, when he heard footsteps behind him.
Jiuru walked over and said, "What are you looking at?"
Zhaoran raised his head, and he soon couldn't hold Jiuru's hand anymore.
He is just a dry skeleton crawling out of the coffin, he is cynical, and he looks at everything he experiences with the heart of a spectator, but he is not really a spectator, he is always a person in the play.
"Sir, I want to look a little farther away. Zhao Ran stood on the stone and raised his arms and pretended to be coquettish, Jiu Ruoran gently squatted down and picked him up, stood on the stone and asked, "Can you see far?"
Zhaoran was lying on Jiuru's back, and at a glance it was the boundless human head tree, and the human heads on the treetops were swaying in the wind, as if they were still whispering to each other, and Zhaoran looked at it for a while before replying: "Can you see far away......"
"How does it feel?"
"A lot of human heads on the forks of the trees. Zhao Ran said with deep feelings, "I think it's better to have a human head on your neck." ”
Zhaoran heard Jiuru's laughter, like a whistle between the silver leaves.
There seemed to be another trace of memory in his mind, but it wasn't clear enough.
----
A few fast horses crawled out of the woods of human heads, and a few black-clothed people tumbled down from above, they were all guards hired by Meng Chengtian who had nothing to do with the book city, and asked clearly, "What happened?"
"Jin Yiwei and Hengsheng are walking from the front. The man in black replied urgently.
Jin Yiwei came to join in the fun again, Zhaoran looked up and thought, as soon as he climbed out of the coffin, he ran into the beauty Tu Wenzhi Geng, and now that he thinks about it, he doesn't know which place he was thrown into by Wantong.
"Who's leading the way?"
When Zhao Ran and Jiuru returned to the cave, they saw Meng Chengtian questioning.
"Yes, it's that scholar from Meng's mansion......" The man in black glanced at Meng Chengtian and replied.
"Do you want the artillery team to prepare?" asked one of the nurses.
Yang Wan hurriedly said: "Wait, Lao Dao has some friendship with Jinyiwei, why don't you let me inquire about the purpose of their trip first, in case they are aiming at the demon tree, it has nothing to do with us." ”
No one here wants to go against the court, so naturally they all agree, but Zhao Ran feels that since Jinyiwei has brought Hengsheng, it must be for Meng Chengtian, the land after death.
People usually can only work on people, and they can't be of much use to any demon tree.
But to his surprise, Meng Chengtian actually agreed to Yang Wan's request lightly.
----
Zhaoran saw Heng Sheng walking in wearing a filial piety suit, his expression was calm and calm, and the distance between the rows was quite regular.
If you don't pay special attention, Zhao Ran will be a little difficult to distinguish this person who is embarrassed in the lobby, and will mistakenly think that this is the young son of the Meng Mansion.
Behind him were more than a dozen brocade guards, and these people rushed in like wolves and shouted, "Who is Meng Chengtian?"
"I am. Meng Chengtian put down his wine glass in the corner and responded.
Several people were about to step forward, and Meng Chengtian's guards also rushed up to block him, and the situation on both sides was about to erupt.
"Wait a minute. Someone answered, and Yang Wan also walked through the spiked forest with one person.
Fu Heng - Zhaoran's heart moved.
Fu Heng walked in, his face was straight, and with a warm smile on his face, he asked first, "Which one is the little saint of the academy?"
Jiuru got up and bowed slightly: "I am." ”
Fu Heng politely saluted and said, "Demons are rampant, and now we still need sages like you and Yang Wandao." ”
"If you have something to do, it is your duty. "Yang Wan is duty-bound.
Zhaoran glanced at Yang Wan, Fu Heng was originally a disciple of Luo Zifeng, but now he pretended not to know Yang Wan, he was afraid that Jiu Ru would be deceived, so he stretched out his left hand and gently pulled Jiu Ru's sleeve.
Jiuru just nodded slightly.
Only then did Fu Heng say, "Which one is Meng Chengtian?"
Meng Chengtian put down the wine glass in his hand and smiled slightly: "Didn't Hengsheng next to you tell you?"
The brocade guards behind Fu Heng all held down the embroidered spring knife, Fu Heng waved his hand, and said: "Your Meng Mansion is a scholarly disciple, and Meng Shanchang is a famous Confucian who moves the government and the opposition, I believe that Meng Gongzi is also a person who understands morality." ”
Meng Chengtian smiled and said, "Your Excellency should know that although Meng Shanchang is a great Confucian, I am a businessman. ”
Fu Heng said: "Whether it is a scholar, a businessman, or a peddler, the official only distinguishes between good and evil, not between high and low." ”
Meng Chengtian glanced at Fu Heng, picked up the wine glass in his hand and said, "My lord, come over and have a drink." ”
Fu Heng raised his hand and said: "There is no need to drink, now the demon tree outside must be eradicated as soon as possible, so as not to cause panic among the civilians." ”
"I wonder if you have a good plan?"
"Now we need a team of people to go into the academy to find out what's going on inside. ”
Meng Chengtian took the wine glass and said, "Could it be that Lord Fei wants Meng to enter the book city?"
Fu Heng said: "I will send someone to go with you, but my people are not familiar with the book city, so the best way is to have someone go back with us, of course, the best people are a few of you." ”
Meng Chengtian said lightly: "Then what if I don't want to?"
Fu Heng frowned slightly and said: "There is no one in the world who doesn't know that there is an Egret Academy in Egret Book City, and there is a Meng Mansion in Egret Academy, you are the eldest son of Meng Mansion, don't you study the people of Book City?"
Meng Chengtian turned the wine glass in his hand: "I said that I am just a businessman. ”
Fu Heng said calmly: "Then we will negotiate the price." ”
Meng Chengtian played with the wine glass in his hand: "I don't know what kind of price adults can offer." ”
Fu Heng was simple and clear: "If you go to explore the book city, the previous things will be erased." ”
Heng Sheng was angry: "Master Fu, Meng Chengtian is a matter of six lives, how can you say that one stroke is one stroke?"
Fu Heng said indifferently: "It is said that there are six lives in the Meng Mansion, and now the sixty lives cannot be compared with the people of the mountain city!"
Fu Heng is young and handsome, and there is a lot of righteousness between his eyebrows, even if he lightly erases the six lives, but it makes people have a good impression of him, but Zhaoran feels that Fu Heng is quite a businessman, and Meng Chengtian is just a little suspicious of the six lives in Mengfu, and now in order to clear this suspicion, he has to give Fu Heng his life, and it sounds like he is stained.
Meng Chengtian looked at Hengsheng, chuckled, and said with a rather hideous expression: "Okay, but this is my family's scholar, you give him back to me!"
Fu Heng glanced at Hengsheng and nodded, "Okay!"
Hengsheng was shocked and angry: "Master Fu!"
Fu Heng said: "You have sold yourself in the Meng Mansion, you are the subordinate of the Meng Mansion, Meng Chengtian has not raided the house for a day, you are the subordinate of his mansion for a day." He asked you to go back, and I couldn't help but give it, but I said it first, and if you put your name here with my Fu Heng, you won't die in vain. ”
Hengsheng was silent for a long time, and then lowered his head: "Hengsheng believes in Master Fu." ”
Fu Heng settled everything in a few words, he only brought a dozen or so guards, but he didn't spend a single soldier, and in a blink of an eye, he let Meng Chengtian's foundation planned for many years be used by him, he sold Hengsheng, but he also made Hengsheng have to rely on him wholeheartedly.
Zhao Ran said in his heart, he couldn't complain that after many years, Fu Heng would become the owner of Jianfeng Villa, who could eat both black and white.
The swordsman in front of General Taiyin's sedan chair......
----
Zhao Ran secretly said to Jiuru: "Fu Heng is the eldest apprentice of Yang Wan, the two of them pretend not to know each other, they must have a ghost in their hearts, sir, you don't have to listen to them all, we won't go if they go." ”
Jiuru turned his head, his eyebrows were black, his skin was white, but his eyes reflected the pupils of the sky, as if he was drunk with a layer of sunset, and he smiled quite freely: "If they don't go, we will go too!"
At such a moment, it was as if he had seen some time in Jiuru twenty years later, and he had made up his mind and had no hesitation.
What kind of person is Jiuru?
Zhao Ran never thought about it, from the moment he saw Jiuru by the mountain lake, Jiuru was like a very special character left in his heart.
He rarely speaks, but in Zhaoran's heart, he inexplicably trusts him, no matter what he looks like or who he is, Zhaoran doesn't seem to care.
"Are you all ready?" Meng Chengtian walked out.
Fu Heng walked over with Yang Wan, and it seemed that he himself would also go to Tanshan City with Meng Chengtian, which made the faces of Meng Chengtian's guards look much better.
"Doesn't the little saint have a weapon?" Fu Heng asked.
Zhao Ran said: "My husband is a teacher, not a soldier, how can he have a weapon?"
Fu Heng thought for a while, pointed to a brocade guard and said, "Send your package over!"
The brocade guard immediately walked over and untied the burden on his back to reveal a wooden box, Fu Heng opened the wooden box and took out a small black bow.
"Demon Bow!" Zhao Ran blurted out.
Fu Heng glanced at Zhao Ran a few times and said, "You also know the Demon Falling Bow?"
Zhao Ran had to be vague: "I've heard people say before, saying that there is a small bow the size of a palm, and the color is pitch black, called the Demon Falling Bow." ”
Fu Heng said: "This is the treasure of the evil hidden in the Great Interior, specially used to deter the demon tree, I think it is more suitable for Mr. to use." After saying that, he handed the bow to Jiuru with both hands.
Zhao Ran was a little embarrassed, he had just said bad things about others behind his back, and he was slapped in the face in a blink of an eye.
The Demon Falling Bow is not trivial, and it is obvious that he has seen its power, and Fu Heng immediately gave this treasure to Jiuru, so it can be seen that at least he has no evil intentions.
"Take it!" Zhao Ran was afraid that Yi Jiuru's temperament would refuse, and hurriedly instigated, although he knew that even if Jiuru refused, the Demon Bow would be Jiuru's weapon in the future, but he was still afraid that he would miss this opportunity.
Jiu Ruoran took the Demon Falling Bow and said thank you, and then Fu Heng said: "The area of the demon tree is very large now, so we shouldn't easily alarm it when we walk under the tree, but for the sake of caution, all of us will walk." ”
"These two teenagers will stay where they are......" Fu Heng looked at Zhao Ran and Shen Fang and said silently.
Shen Fangshan nodded and said, "Then I'll give you a strategy, and I can guard a few cannons here." ”
Of course, Zhao Ran has to follow Jiuru, if nothing else, he also has to go back to the city to see Lu Tian and the pillar, and he doesn't know if the pillar will also become a human head fruit on this tree.
But Shen Fangshan is so reasonable, if he has to make trouble and want to follow, wouldn't it seem to be messing around.
Zhaoran gritted his teeth, and suddenly with a finger of his hand, a large-billed finch that stopped on the periphery crashed towards the end of the woods, and with a "boom", the human head forest suddenly burst into a strong fire, burning a large forest.
"It's amazing. A famous brocade guard blurted out, and even Shen Fanglone's gaze turned to Zhao Ran.
Fu Heng looked at the firelight and nodded, "You can follow." ”
Zhao Ran was actually startled in his heart, obviously the last time I saw it, the big-billed finch was not so powerful, it seems that Lu Tian has strengthened the amount of gunpowder carried by the big-billed finch again.
All the people set off, and Zhao Ran lay on Jiuru's back and whispered, "Sir, do you remember the righteous son I received? ”
Jiuru said "um": "Is it Lu Tian?"
"yes, you remember. Zhao Ran said happily.
Meng Chengtian in front handed over two sweat towels and said, "Cover your mouth and nose." ”
"Why cover your mouth and nose. Zhaoran craned his neck and saw Meng Chengtian in front of him fiddling with some tobacco.
"Because we stun the head of the man in the tree. ”
"Faint people, human heads?" Jin Yiwei, who was following beside him, couldn't help but interject.
"Just ......in case," Meng Chengtian said with a smile, "What if these heads want to stay with us to talk?"
The Jinyi guard's face involuntarily turned three points white, they received an urgent report from the local county official, saying that there was a human head demon tree in the academy, and the news of the demon in the past few years has been reported from the provinces to the capital from time to time, and it is far less important to the officials and masters than the military situation of the Yao people's Miao soldiers, so they asked them to follow Fu Heng of Luozifeng to come and take a look.
As soon as they saw this huge human head tree, they were stunned on the spot, if it weren't for Fu Heng's calmness, I was afraid that they would turn around and run away on the spot.
At this moment, as soon as Meng Chengtian said, Jin Yiwei didn't say a word, picked up the sweat towel and covered his mouth and nose first.
