Chapter 12: Returning to the Wilderness (I)

Dou Xin saw that he couldn't hide the matter of Guanlan Jun from Master Juehui, so he had to bow his head and acquiesce. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info: "Master, Uncle called me tonight and told me about the ancestors of Jueming, I went to the scripture building to find the testament of the ancestors of Jueming, but I didn't expect this female benefactor to break in by mistake, just now I saw the nine proverbs left by the ancestors of Jueming. If the master wants to see it, the disciple will then remove the body of the ancestor of Jueming. ”

"Hugh has to mess around again. These nine proverbs are the reason why the ancestors of Jueming left the Tongyin Temple, you just know it, don't tell others. Master Juehui looked at one, and there was a little more seriousness in his kind face.

"Miss Dou, it's not that the old monk is talking nonsense, except for the three of us, anyone who knows about the Kuzen Mountain people will have unimaginable consequences. You just need to guard Guanlanjun's soul now, and go to Tianshan Mountain to return your soul with peace of mind. With a drop off along the way, you don't have to think too much. Don't be afraid of the oath, Guanlan Jun will definitely help you. ”

Dou Xin nodded, and asked one more sentence along the way, "Master, I have two souls on my body, and there is no shadow in the middle of the night, what solution does the master have?" ”

"No solution." Master Juehui shook his head, and suddenly remembered something: "Girl, Guanlan Jun's soul is not yet complete, and there is no obstacle to attaching it to the Guanlan Sword, if he wakes up in you, a living person, the girl should be more careful." ”

"What will happen?" Dou Xin was taken aback.

"At first, you will be drowsy, and gradually you will fall into a lethargy. After all, he's feeding his soul with your body. It's also normal to suck your qi and blood. Master Juehui said. But it won't hurt you, and once his soul leaves your body, you'll be as good as ever. ”

After Dou Xin heard this, he felt that there was a bloodsucking worm in his body. It's really sad that a swordsman who has been famous for thousands of years would live like this. After listening to Master Juehui's words, Dou Xin's heart was a little more relaxed, at least she knew that she was still alive now, and the soul shell was still her own.

"Dou Xin didn't mean to be disrespectful to the ancestors of your temple tonight, I hope this master will forgive me." Dou Xin rushed to apologize and found a staircase for the two of them.

hurriedly returned the salute. Master Juehui scratched on the palm of his hand. "Your name is Dou Xin?" Dou Xin nodded. Master Juehui stroked his beard and smiled meaningfully: "It's a pity that Kuzen is only one move short of chess." ”

The next day, I packed my luggage and pretended to be the nephew and nephew of Master Zixu of Chengtian Pavilion, and came to visit Master Zixu on behalf of Shi Bo Jueming, and went on the road with Dou Xin. Master Juehui prepared a rich entanglement for Dou Xin and Yi, and specially instructed Dou Xin not to be bitter. As for Du Yuan's side, Master Juehui believed that he could handle it.

After sending the three of them down the mountain, Master Juehui went to the Buddhist hall alone and collected the futon of his senior brother Jueming behind the ancestor of Jueming. The temple is performing a sacrifice to the deceased Jueming. Although he knew that his senior brother had gone to Elysium one step ahead of him, he couldn't help but feel sad when he thought about his senior brother's life. Jueming is no longer the Dharma name of his senior brother, but the chains that imprisoned him in Tongyin Temple, and the shackles that have accumulated layer by layer for thousands of years have locked him here. Because of the last words of the ancestors, this generation of "Jue" generation of the elder brother law name for Jueming, but consciously Hui went up the mountain, has been buried two Jueming brothers, the third Jueming senior brother is a dusty root, under the pressure of the whole temple had to break the dust, but left a hundred miles away in the boudoir to guard the ancient Buddha of the green lantern for half a lifetime. The month before last, an obituary finally came from the nunnery, and a sigh of mystery finally came to an end. Jue Hui kept the news for half a month, and finally informed Jue Ming. "All my disciples can return to the world, except for you, because you are 'enlightened'." Master Juehui reverently recited the mantra of rebirth, and the voice of the master lingered in his ears, and he unconsciously shed tears in his left hand, just like the young face of Senior Brother Jueming in front of the Buddhist hall that day.

Du Yuan has been on the road since he started, and his heart has not been very happy. After all, Dou Xin is an apprentice of the mountain people, and it is justified to go to the Tianshan Mountains, but where did this wild monk come from, and it is not good to be born in the temple to recite scriptures. If you have incense to offer, you still have to climb the high branches of the Heavenly Pavilion? Du Yuan thought that the monk Zixu might not even remember the abbot of this wild temple. Du Yuan approached Dou Xin several times and blamed her for taking a drag oil bottle on the road. Dou Xin didn't explain anything at first, but then he was annoyed by what he said, and he muttered Du Yuan: "Where is my little apprentice talking too much, it is obvious that your face is too conspicuous, so that people can recognize it, what a good place to go in Chengtian Pavilion, who is not eager to stick his face on it!" ”

Du Yuan was choked, feeling that this girl was really familiar with him, and she was not big or small when she spoke. As if he hadn't heard anything, he just closed his eyes on the horse and didn't say a word. Dou Xin didn't talk much, and Du Yuan endured it, and now there is another mute monk, and the boredom along the way can be imagined.

There are occasional tea stalls on the road, and Du Yuan wants to rest, drink a few cups of tea and ask for directions. If nothing else, even if you try to see if you can speak, I don't know if you will become a dumb person after going all the way.

"Xiao Er, how far is Yazui Mountain?" Du Yuan took a big sip of tea and asked.

The shopkeeper was stunned when asked, "Guest officer, you are taking the wrong road, the main road has to go north, this is a small road, how many years have it been deserted, and you can't leave for a long time." ”

"I'll just ask you how far away from Yazui Mountain is, I don't know the avenue and trail, I want you to talk nonsense!" Du Yuan said impatiently.

"If you go straight over, it's less than ten miles, and if you look up, the one that rises to the top is it." The shopkeeper pointed in a direction, it seemed that it was indeed not far, "But the road is easy to walk, you have to turn four or five miles to the north, and it will be far up the mountain from there." ”

"Okay, I see." Du Yuan threw the tea bowl on the table and walked quickly to the table where Dou Xin and Yi were in the corner. With an ear, I heard Xiao Er's words earlier. "If we take the avenue, we may have to spend the night on the road tonight, do you want to take the trail?" asked.

"Of course, don't grind!" Du Yuan turned around and went to lead the horse.

"There's a girl's house here, and you can't ride a horse in the barren mountains and mountains, so let's take the road safely, if you can't do it, just stay here, and it's not too late to set off tomorrow." Holding the tea bowl calmly, he sat motionless.

"This girl is more honest than you, who has time to delay with you! Girl, come with me, pay less attention to this white-faced wild monk. ”

"Master, we are really running out of time." Dou Xin nodded and followed behind Du Yuan.

The shopkeeper watched the three people lead the horse and walked down the path, hehe, Yile: "Fool." ”

It's already late autumn, the leaves have long since fallen, and even the weeds and vines coiled together on the ground have withered, and they will break when they kick it, thinking of the hardships when he walked the forest with his master, Dou Xin felt that it was a piece of cake now, not to mention that with Du Yuan and Yi by his side, there was nothing to be afraid of.

"You've been to a place like this? Does your family live in the mountains and forests? Guanlan Jun's voice startled Dou Xin again.

"My good master, can you not scare me every time."

"Okay, you can call me master." Guanlan Jun said lightly in Dou Xin's heart, but it made Dou Xin almost laugh. "Do I want to cough before I speak next time?"

When Dou Xin heard this, he was unconsciously happy.

"Don't be afraid of me, except for a thousand more years, I'm the same as you. When I return to Tianlan Mountain, I will make the decision for Guanlan Sword and let you go home. Don't say 'you can't go back' every day, why do you have to live so tired at such a young age. Guanlanjun's voice became more and more gentle.

Dou Xin fell silent again, and only replied after a while: "After making the vow, no matter how I think about it, I can't remember where my home is, where I was brought by the master from here, and I have no impression at all along the way." She didn't tell Guanlanjun that she had dreamed several times that the people in the inn were burned to death in a fire. Out of the fear of killing the master and the power of Chengtian Pavilion, Dou Xin didn't dare to go back, she was no longer a red bean, and going back with sins would only dirty the pure land.

"When I'm done with what I need to do, I'll send you home." Guanlan Jun saw that Dou Xincai's sunny expression was cloudy again, and he was hurriedly relieved. "You know what? There is a tree in the world called the acacia tree. If you can pronounce the name of the person in your heart a thousand times under the acacia tree, you will definitely meet again. There are a lot of acacia trees planted on the slope at the foot of Tianlan Mountain. This acacia tree also has a good name, called red beans. Have you heard of it? ”

Dou Xin hesitated for a moment and replied, "No." ”

Dou Xin and Guanlan Jun chatted; As soon as I closed my eyes, I didn't know whether I was meditating or falling asleep. Du Yuan was angry with the two dumb people, and he was also holding back the fire in his stomach. The three of them didn't pay attention, and a large net had been quietly hanging from the dead tree.

Du Yuan led the horse and walked, always feeling that there was something familiar around him, and suddenly remembered a sentence in his mind: "A three-foot dead tree, with the string of hair, can pull the mechanism with the power of a pika." Even the tiger with the strength of a thousand pounds can't break free from my trap. Turning around, Du Yuan saw the familiar, thinner than a hair, and it was too late to hold the horse, only to watch the three people and the horse being covered by the big net that had been cast, and then dragged into a big pit by a huge force.

Dou Xinhe was caught off guard, and before he could scream, he fell into the big pit and was hit very lightly.

"Turtle son! Get the fuck out of here! Du Yuan pulled the big net with all his might, and he couldn't break free and went crazy with anger. It was useless for Dou Xin and Yi to struggle in the net, and the whole net was torn apart by Du Yuan, and the two of them couldn't stand steadily.

"Du Yuan, Lord Qi wants your life, can you still dodge? Pull him out for me! An ethereal voice came, and I couldn't hear the direction of the voice. I don't know what kind of master this is, setting such a big trap and making no noise.

Before Du Yuan could speak, he felt that his stomach had been kicked hard, and his hands and feet could not exert his strength. The four reckless men pulled the three people out and poured medicine into their noses, and the three of them immediately softened. In less than a moment's effort, the three of them slept without knowing who was going to know.

The room smelled wet and musty, and there was no light. Outside the window, the jackdaw screamed violently, Du Yuan woke up in a daze, and found that his left hand was hanging above his head, his right hand was tied behind a pillar, and the rope was drawn three figures of eight from his chest. Du Yuan didn't remember how long he had been tied up in this position, he only felt that his left hand was already slightly sore, and the rope on his chest was so that he couldn't breathe, and he didn't know which turtle Sun kicked him in his stomach, and he was eating pain. Du Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. Before the breath reached his chest, he was stuck in his lungs, and Du Yuan, who was harmed, coughed violently twice, and this breath was poured up. It didn't matter if he coughed, he shook his left hand violently, and he didn't know what he pulled, and the room clanged open, waking up the gatekeeper. The door of the thatched house was opened, and the four big men rushed in first, and Du Yuan was squinted by the sudden light in the house. Only when he heard the sound of the door being closed, Du Yuan opened his eyes, only to see a thin man wearing official boots and covering his face squeezed out from behind the big man.

"Turtle son." Du Yuan scolded, "You rabbit cub can you change something new, you Lao Tzu taught you this trick?" ”

The thin man jerked the black cloth off his face and smiled strangely. "Daddy Wangba, son, won't I make you a turtle in the urn with such a trick? If you want to break my trick, ask Hades. The thin man took out a long knife from the big man's waist and walked over to Du Yuan with a smirk.

"It's really unjust." Du Yuan raised his head and closed his eyes.

"I don't have the two efforts of my father to slaughter cows, or let you enjoy it

'Happy'? I've never slaughtered anyone, so I can only grope my way through your joints before stabbing you, and it would be a shame if this good knife was wounded by your hard bones! The thin man flicked the blade with his hand and spat on it. No one dares to disobey Lord Qi's order, throw your life away today, brother, I will collect your body, maybe you can stew a pot. ”

Du Yuan smiled twitchingly on his face, and his expression of dying made the thin man laugh, if it weren't for the four big men behind him supporting his aura, the thin man would definitely laugh heartily.

The thin man raised the knife and didn't fall down for a long time, Du Yuan waited impatiently, so he shouted: "Turtle son, have a good time!" What are you rubbing, Lao Tzu's neck is sore! ”

"What's the hurry, let me see you again, this knife goes down, I can't see you again, how much do I miss you?" The thin man deliberately made a girlish voice, so angry that Du Yuan wanted to bite him twice.

"When I get to the underworld, I'll talk to you and talk to you, how to teach you something that is not a man or a woman." Du Yuan's strength to die had already been leaked for nine points, and he didn't have the heart to pretend to be a loyal general, so he poured out the ugly words to the thin man.

"Gui Lord, hurry up and do it, save you a lot of dreams at night." A big man squeezed his eyebrows and urged. The thin man threw a wink at the big man, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose a little.

"Good brother, see you in the next life." The thin man raised the long knife and slashed it familiarly, and in a few blinks of an eye, he had already slashed left, right, up, down and down, and then threw the knife back, impartially stuffing it into the big man's scabbard.

Du Yuan only felt a knife wind in front of him, and when he opened his eyes again, the thin man was already laughing in front of him, and when he looked down, the rope on his body was neatly cut into more than a dozen pieces of one-inch-long rope and fell to the ground. Du Yuan immediately understood, and he was tricked by this slippery boy again. The resentment that had been held back for a few days suddenly spilled out, and Du Yuan stretched out his foot and kicked at the thin man. The thin man rolled back nimbly on the ground like a monkey, and stood up as soon as he straightened up.

"Big brother, big brother spare your life. The little brother didn't ......" Du Yuan suppressed his anger and rushed up, glanced behind him, copied a broom casually, and chased after the thin man. The thin man pulled the big man's arm, hid behind, and poked his head out and smiled from time to time, "I can't fight, I can't fight!" "I thought: I have to find four King Kongs, or I have to cripple myself with Du Yuan's temper. Pity the four big men, they couldn't run and couldn't run, they couldn't hide and couldn't dodge, so they had to be used as a meat shield for the thin man, and they ate Du Yuan and beat him up.

After chasing for a long time, Du Yuan saw that he couldn't catch it, so he had to throw the broom, gasp and sit on the haystack in the house, and suddenly thought of the two mutes. "Stinky boy, I won't beat you, you tell me where you locked them both up?"

"Come on, tell Du Ye what is wrong with my sister-in-law." As soon as the words fell, Du Yuan was about to get up and chase again, but the thin man hurriedly squatted behind the big man again. As soon as the words fell, a kid ran in from outside the door, and Du Yuan raised his eyes and saw that it was the second child of the tea stall.

"Hui Ye, the girl is sleeping comfortably, the monk is awake, and she is thinking about the Buddha." Xiao Er looked at Du Yuan with a pair of thief eyes, and replied tremblingly. "Go back and watch it, don't disturb Mrs. Du's dream." The thin man snorted at Xiao Er, and Xiao Er ran backwards.

"Lao Du, we haven't seen each other for a long time, don't fight as soon as we meet, you threw away that broom pimple, brother, can I invite you to have a drink and apologize?" The thin man squeezed out a small head from between the two big men in the middle, and said with a grin.

"Don't fucking nonsense, you kid can't be raised in the pavilion, come here to play with me! Say, "What are you doing here?" Du Yuan was roaring, his stomach had already screamed several times, Du Yuan swallowed his saliva and threw the broom back, "Find me a good place, can you drink in the thatched house?" ”

The bed was soft and abnormal, a hundred times stronger than in the Tongyin Temple the night before, Dou Xin had a good dream, and was woken up by the humming chanting sound in a trance, and when he looked up, he saw a person standing in front of the window and chanting. "Why are you in my room?"

"Shhhh......h Dou Xin saw clearly that the two of them were locked in the house together. Holding his aching head, Dou Xin remembered that the three of them were ambushed in the woods and drugged. "What about Brother Du? Is he alive? Dou Xin hurriedly asked.

"If it is someone else who ambushes us, it is hard to say; However, under the hands of the assassin Gui Ning, you put your heart in your stomach, maybe your big brother Du is drinking and has forgotten about you. He said with a smile.

"Guining?" Dou Xin frowned.

"At the end of the four generals of Chengtian Pavilion, the assassin Guining is the fourth brother of you, Brother Du."
