It's been almost a year since Li Ziqiu came out, his face is full of wind and frost, and his spirit is very good. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info heart of the Tao is still firm. The big mountain in front of you is Lingtai Fangcun Mountain. It is rumored that there is a Taoist temple on the mountain, the three-star cave of the oblique moon. The old gods in the Taoist temple, the ancestor of Bodhi, the magic is profound, there are many disciples, the education is extensive, the mountain spirit-water monster, and the villagers in the mountains can seek the Tao from it, so they are deeply respected.

Li Ziqiu stood at the entrance of this small village with a beautiful face, cleanly washed clothes, and a flower pot and a simple bag on her back. It's not early, stay in the village for one night, and it's not too late to go up the mountain tomorrow. Having made up his mind, Li Ziqiu walked towards the village.

The street in the middle of Zhuangzi is lined with inns for lodging, taverns for eating, and pergolas for drinking tea. Li Ziqiu saw that the curtain in front of an inn in front of him said "Seeking Immortal Inn", so he walked over. The child at the door, with a towel on his shoulder, saw Li Ziqiu coming over, so he took the initiative to greet him: "This little brother, but you want to stay in the hotel?" ”。

Li Ziqiu nodded, "Exactly, is there any room available here?" "Little brother, please! The shopkeeper picked up the towel, dusted off Li Ziqiu's body, and beckoned Li Ziqiu to enter the inn.

The outside of the inn is not very good, the inside is very elegantly arranged, after entering the door, there are two pots of clear oil plants placed on both sides of the door, there is an arm's height, from the bottom of the pot to press a piece of leaf symmetrical growth, Li Ziqiu saw that the pot was written with charcoal with three ancient characters of Junzi Orchid.

The counter opposite is also made of logs, which actually grows on the ground, and there are sprouts at the roots, which is really a fairy method.

On the right, there are four log tables for eating, and two young men dressed in Orion costumes are eating. The shopkeeper greeted him, "Little brother, do you want to stay in the hotel?" Li Ziqiu retracted his gaze, "I have a room, in addition, eat first."

Xiao Er took Li Ziqiu and walked towards the log table, "Little brother, please come here!" ”。 The two who were eating looked up at Li Ziqiu, and Li Ziqiu and the other party hit each other in the face. The other party has a rectangular jujube red face, two thick horizontal eyebrows, a high nose bridge, a wide mouth, and two ears like broad leaves, facing outward. There was no malice in the other party's eyes.

Li Ziqiu sat down at the table next to him, but the other person didn't look back, he looked majestic from the back, his shoulders were three times as wide as Li Ziqiu, judging from his figure, his height was not short. "Just some fruit and cooking cakes, a pot of hot water, no other" Li Ziqiu took out a small mani bead from his arms and put it in the small second-hand. Li Ziqiu felt a coolness pass over him.

The two people at the table next to them were talking about something, and they no longer paid attention to Li Ziqiu. Listening to their accents, it doesn't look like people from Xiniuhezhou.

After Li Ziqiu had dinner, he was ready to go to his room to rest. At this time, I heard the man who had just seen him tell the shopkeeper: "You will prepare some food and send it to my room for the spirit monkey to eat, and prepare some game to wrap and send it to my room in one piece." "Good come!" Xiao Er agreed.

Li Ziqiu saw that it had nothing to do with him, so he didn't care. Xiao Er led the way, and Li Ziqiu's room was in the innermost room on the west side of the second floor. After putting things away, Li Ziqiu was ready to take a break. At this time, there was a strange voice in the next room, "Little brother, save me, little brother, save me", Li Ziqiu listened carefully and found that the voice came from next door, although he could understand it, the accent was sharp and thin, very strange.

Li Ziqiu put his ear to the wall and listened carefully, "Little brother, save me!" ”。 Li Ziqiu walked out of the room and looked at the window next door open and the door closed. Looking through the window, it was a hairy head with a sharp beak monkey talking to him, his whole body was wrapped in a black cloth bag, leaving only one head exposed, "Little brother, please save me", Li Ziqiu was very curious, "Are you a human being, or a spirit, how did you look like this."

"Little brother, I see that you have a very kind face, please save me" The monkey-headed man spoke to Li Ziqiu, and Li Ziqiu asked, "Who are you?" Why was he arrested? "Don't hide it from the little brother, I came from Dongsheng Shenzhou, came to find the old fairy to learn art, at the bottom of the mountain, I was caught by two wicked people, wanted to harm me, and asked the little brother to help", the monkey man spoke, tears flowed down.

Thinking of his path to seeking immortals, Li Ziqiu felt very sorry for this monkey man, "How can I save you!" ”。 The monkey man was very happy to see that Li Ziqiu promised to save himself. "Just open the bag! I was locked inside, with no way to escape." Li Ziqiu saw that there was no one left and right, put the flower pot away, and climbed in through the window.

Li Ziqiu untied the rope at the mouth of the black cloth bag, opened the cloth bag, and the monkey man came out, "Little brother, go quickly, those two villains have some spells, so as not to harm the little brother." The monkey man rolled up the black cloth bag and stuffed it into his arms, the two jumped out of the window, Li Ziqiu held the flower pot, and the monkey man led the way, jumped down from the back of the inn, and ran along the Zhuangzili path towards the mountain.

Not long after the two left, the sturdy man among the two who was still drinking downstairs suddenly stood up, "It's not good, my Qiankun bag!" He ran upstairs quickly. Zao Hong's face also followed upstairs. Looking at the empty room, the sturdy man pinched his hand, took the lead and jumped down from the back of the inn, chasing in the direction where Li Ziqiu and the monkey man had fled.

Li Ziqiu and the monkey man kept running towards the mountain. The monkey man seemed to know the road, and ran fast along a path, if he hadn't waited for Li Ziqiu, he would have disappeared early in the morning. Ran until the end of the path, stone steps appeared, and the two ran up for a few dozen meters before the monkey stopped.

Li Ziqiu hugged his flower pot, bent down and gasped for breath, if the monkey man didn't stop again, Li Ziqiu was ready to stop by himself, he had reached the limit of his physical fitness, and if he ran again, he couldn't support it.

The monkey man's hearing is very sensitive, and Li Ziqiu, who couldn't help but panting, hid behind a boulder, and Li Ziqiu barely suppressed his violent wheezing. The two people from the inn appeared in front of the stone steps just now, and did not chase after them again. Just standing there looking up the hill. After hesitating for a while, the two turned around and left.

Li Ziqiu asked the monkey man, "What the hell is going on?" The monkey man gritted his teeth and smiled, "Don't hide it from my little brother, I am not a human, but a monkey born from a stone." Li Ziqiu was taken aback, "What, you are a monkey, so how can you speak human words?" ”。 The monkey man leaned against the stone and said, "I was born with the aura of heaven and earth, and like humans, I was born with wisdom and can learn from nature."

Li Ziqiu asked again: "Why did those two people arrest you?" The monkey man scratched his head, "I don't know, I heard that the old gods here are very capable, and there are not many rules for accepting apprentices, there are a lot of mountain spirits-water monsters are also here to learn art, so I came here to try my luck, I am from Dongsheng Shenzhou, Ao Lai country, since I came here, I have hit walls everywhere, and even a few times someone wants to catch me to eat, I guess these two people are not good-hearted, fortunately the little brother rescued, thank you, thank you!" ”。

Li Ziqiu was very frank when he saw the monkey man, "I won't tell you, I also came to this mountain to learn art, and you and I will go up the mountain together!" ”。“ Very good, do you know, why didn't the two of them dare to chase after them just now? Li Ziqiu asked: "Is there anything important?" The monkey man smiled proudly, "I heard the woodcutter here say that starting from the stone steps, even if it is the boundary of Fangcun Mountain, no one dares to spread wild in the place of the old fairy, the old fairy here has great magical powers, if someone does not listen, they will be punished, so, since we are here, you and I don't have to be afraid anymore."

"And how did you get caught by the two?" Li Ziqiu was a little curious, the monkey's movements were very agile, and he didn't know how the two of them caught it. The monkey man took out the black cloth bag just now from his arms, the black cloth had shrunk to the size of only the palm of his hand, and handed it to Li Ziqiu, "When I went up the mountain yesterday, I was defenseless, in the mountains and forests below, I was caught by the man with this thing, this thing can become bigger, I can't struggle in it, although I don't know how to use it, I want to come to this thing is also a treasure, so I will give it to my brother", Li Ziqiu was very curious about this thing, this is the first time I have seen such a treasure, and I am not polite, so I accepted it.

A monkey and a person are also very compatible, Li Ziqiu called the monkey man Brother Shi, and the stone monkey called Li Ziqiu Brother Li, the two continued to walk forward, find a flat place, rest for one night, and go up the mountain tomorrow to visit the old fairy.
