Chapter 6 The Road Meets an Old Liar

I was woken up by Yue'er at dawn the next day, and she seemed to be very happy to see her, and while pulling me up from the bed, she said: "Young master, get up quickly, let's go, Yue'er has been taken in by the lord and his wife since he was a child, and it has been seven or eight years now, and he has never had the opportunity to see the outside world, and now with the blessing of the young master, he can finally go out for a walk..."

Yue'er chattered non-stop, looking at her as if she was really happy, think about it, she is now the same age as me, she is fourteen years old, it is the age of playfulness, if you want to put it on the earth, she will run away a long time ago, but now she has to be locked up at home all day, it is really boring. Seeing that she was so happy, I couldn't help but want to tease her, so I pretended to be very angry and said to her: "Yue'er, I was so happy when I said that I was going to leave you, didn't you feel that you were abused by your father and mother at home, and now you can finally get rid of the clutches, you're very happy, right?"

Yue'er was so frightened that she was about to cry when she saw my serious expression, and hurriedly explained to me: "It's not like this, it's not like this, I have lost my parents since I can remember, and I was left on the streets, it was the lord and his wife who saw me pitiful and took me back to the house to raise me as my own daughter, I was too late to be grateful, how could I ......"

"Silly girl, tease you, hurry up and pack your things and go, Tianxuanzong is on Vientiane Mountain, Vientiane Mountain is some distance from us, it will take a few days to walk, it's better to set off early." ”

Yue'er knew that I was teasing her, so she went to pack her luggage, and after a while, she heard her say: "Young master, Yue'er has already helped you pack your things, and you can leave now." ”

Goodbye to the parents who sent us out of the city, Yue'er and I set off towards the destination, maybe it was a good mood, and it was very comfortable to see the things around us, so I walked for a long time, I felt a little tired, so I sat on the side of the road with Yue'er to rest, and by the way took some dry food out to eat, suddenly an old man came from the side, holding a flag in his hand, which said "Heaven must not be leaked" A few big characters, there is a gourd hanging around the waist, it seems that it is filled with wine, and it is wearing Taoist clothes, but it is a little tattered, like a fortune teller, but it gives people a feeling of a ruffian old hooligan. I finally understand now, it turns out that fortune-telling is the oldest profession, no matter where you can meet, I didn't cross the previous fortune-telling people who often met in the square or park, they are all liars, and there is no real ability to cheat and drink everywhere, so I don't have a good impression of this profession, and now I see it in this world of cultivating immortals, I don't know if there will be some real skills, or don't provoke it.

I thought so, but he didn't seem to intend to let us go, and walked up to us with a serious face, regardless of whether we agreed or not, he sat down in front of us, and said: "Young man, I see that your Yin Tang is black, and there will be a big disaster in the near future, but I am afraid that your life will be lost, but you don't have to be afraid, for the sake of you and me, the old man is so fateful, I will help you, but ......"

Anyway, I'm bored now, so let's chat with him here for a while, and then ask, "But what?"

"There is no free lunch in the world, I will help you also have to be paid, so let's go, I see that you are also going in the direction of Vientiane Mountain, it just so happens that the old man and your destination are similar, let's go together, you take care of the old man's food and accommodation along the way, as a reward, you can rest assured, the old man is very good to serve, every meal has meat and wine, and there is a bed to sleep at night......

I really couldn't listen to it, so I interrupted him and sarcastically said: "How can this be done, seeing that you are also a virtuous person, of course we have to honor you well, do you think this is okay, we will not only meet the requirements you just made, but also solve your spouse problem, what do you think?"

Yue'er heard the irony in my words, and also felt that this old man was like a liar, so she smiled next to her and didn't speak, but she didn't know if the old liar really didn't hear it or was thick-skinned, so she smiled and said to me: "The old man has long seen through the red dust, how can he be greedy for women, just solve the problem of his spouse." ”

I couldn't bear it any longer, so I said to him: "Old liar, we are too busy to take care of you, seeing that you are so pitiful, I will give you some dry food, but you should not pester us anymore." ”

Yue'er hurriedly took out some food from the baggage and gave it to him, but the old liar didn't take it, looked at the food and then turned his head to me and said, "Young man, I don't want food, I plan to help you because we have fate, since you don't believe it, forget it, the old man will leave now." Then the old liar turned around and walked away, but after a few steps he suddenly said, "We are not people of the world."

Hearing this, I instantly thought that I had traveled to this world, and I hadn't told anyone else, how did he know, wouldn't he have real skills, thinking of this, I quickly stood up, ran over and grabbed him, and said: "Senior, it was the junior who was rude just now, I hope you don't have the same general knowledge as the junior, I don't know what the predecessor just said meant?"

The old liar rolled his eyes, was silent for a while, didn't speak, just pointed to his flag with his finger, I followed his finger and looked at the flag, by it, it said "Heaven must not be leaked", I was a little unwilling and wanted to continue to ask, but before he spoke, the old liar was going to leave again, it seems that he is not going to tell me, forget it, leave him first, and then ask slowly, and quickly pulled him and said:" Senior, it's boring for you to go on the road alone, we just happened to be on the same road, and the juniors are going out for the first time, so let's rush together, so there is a response, what do you think?"

He seemed to be very embarrassed, and said to me: "I saw you so rude just now, and I was going to leave directly, but now I see that you admit your mistakes so well, I won't embarrass you, and the old man will reluctantly go with you, but the conditions just said cannot be less." ”

I really don't know what to say, let's stabilize the old man first, and then say to him: "Senior, rest assured, we will definitely do what we promised, seniors are tired after walking for so long, come and rest with us, by the way, eat some food, recover your strength, and hurry for a while." ”

The old liar went back to Yue'er with me, and Yue'er heard what I had just said, and knew that I was going to keep him, so he hurriedly took some food out and gave it to him, and the old liar was no longer polite, took the food and ate it, and took off his gourd and drank it while eating, and looked so uncomfortable with his appearance.

When he had nothing to do, he asked him: "Senior, do you have anything to do when you go to Vientiane Mountain this time?"

"Hey, why are you so stupid, I'm just on the same road with you, did I say that I want to go to Vientiane Mountain, I'm going to Tianhe Town at the foot of Vientiane Mountain, I heard that there is a monster there recently, a big family in the town is spending money to invite a master to ambush this monster, the old man is idle, it's better to go to Tianhe Town for a while, maybe you can make a profit, why not." ”

"So that's the case, but the juniors still don't understand something, and I want to ask the seniors to teach me. ”

The old liar saw that I had something to ask him for advice, and suddenly felt as if he knew everything and could do anything, and said triumphantly: "You say come and listen, and the old man will definitely answer for you." ”

"Tianhe Town is at the foot of Vientiane Mountain, and on Vientiane Mountain is Tianxuanzong, no matter how bad Tianxuanzong is, it is also one of the four major sects today, there should be many masters in the faction, and now there are monsters in Tianhe Town, they should deal with this matter as soon as possible, why do you want others to ambush this monster?"

The old liar said proudly: "Actually, if it were a normal time, it would indeed be the turn of others to take care of such things, but this time it was just in time for Tianxuanzong to recruit newcomers once every four years, so the younger generation of disciples in his sect were busy preparing for these things, so naturally they couldn't take care of these things." ”

"Since the young disciples are busy with things and can't take care of these things, what about the older generation of people in the sect, why don't they come out and take care of it?"

"Older generation, hmph, they are too lazy to take care of these things, they generally only care about their own cultivation, strive to attain the Tao as soon as possible, and get rid of the shackles of life and death, unless a very powerful monster is born, or when someone in the demon sect has a big action, and the younger generation of disciples in the sect can't deal with it, they will come forward to take care of it. ”

So that's the case, I haven't seen a monster yet, anyway, there are still a few days before Tianxuan Sect accepts new disciples, so it's better to follow him to take a look.

"Senior, we have been locked up at home from the bottom to the oldest, rarely go out, and have never seen monsters, I wonder if the seniors can take us to see it?"

After all, Yue'er is an ordinary girl, and when she heard that there were monsters, she was so frightened that she immediately dragged me and said, "Young master, let's not go, I heard that monsters are very ferocious, what if he eats us, the lord and Mrs. will definitely be very sad." ”

It's hard to see the legendary monsters, how could I miss it, and hurriedly comforted Yue'er and said: "Don't worry, with the seniors here, we will definitely be fine, and let's go to Tianxuan Sect to learn immortal arts this time, we will definitely encounter more monsters in the future, how can we retreat now." ”

The old liar also nodded on the side, and said: "That's right, with the old man here, don't be afraid of any demons and monsters." Then he glanced at me with strange eyes, and then said to me: "Boy, I heard me right, you have to go to Tianxuanzong to learn the immortal method, every time Tianxuanzong recruits new disciples, there will be many disciples to sign up, ordinary people can't enter at all, I see that you don't have the slightest qualification to cultivate immortals, even ordinary people are not as good, how can Tianxuanzong accept you, you are daydreaming." ”

It seems that the old man has some ability, and he actually saw this, but it's not good to say it directly like this, it hurts his self-esteem.

"Senior, although my qualifications are not good, maybe I'm lucky, maybe Tianxuanzong will accept me. ”

The old liar had a look of indignity, and then said, "It's not enough to accept you as a janitor, so don't think about it, give up." ”

I was really speechless for a while, I couldn't continue this topic with him, it hurt my self-esteem too much. Fortunately, Yue'er saw my embarrassment and quickly helped me out: "Senior, we are almost rested, while it is still early, let's hurry up." ”

I hurriedly said, "Yes, you have to leave quickly, and then rest, you won't be able to find a place to live at night." ”
