Li En and the others escaped from Jinghu and returned to Wudang Mountain, where the head Zhang Zhongxing used the money he obtained from the old nest of the mixed river dragon to buy an elephant that could be ridden in tandem and give it to them as a mount.
But there was only one elephant, and there were four of them.
Zhan Kaijiao said: "The fourth child is a disciple of the Emei faction, the road is familiar, he will take you to Emei, and I will go to Luoyang with the second child to deliver the task to the senior and Mr. Gu, if there is a chance, we will meet again." ”
The first time Li En saw an elephant, he was very curious. Yiqing Taoist explained: "Although the elephant walks slowly, it is very steady, and the strength is infinite, the skin is rough and thick, it is resistant to beating and pulling the wind, and it is also easy to control. ”
Xue Tao quickly learned, ordered the elephant to lower his body, helped Li En to ride, Zhan Kaijiao also handed him the dry food and water on the road, and advised: "Fourth brother, you must send Li Gongzi back to Emei safely and hand it over to Miss Gao, even if we have completed the task, you go to Luoyang to meet us!" ”
Li En and Xue Tao waved goodbye to the Wudang faction, and then slowly walked down the mountain on the elephant.
The feeling of riding an elephant is really different, condescending, although not in the sky, but it is not the same as riding a carriage, the elephant has a flat back and a wide field of vision, attracting the attention of countless people along the way.
They followed the official road, Xiaoxing stayed overnight, and went out of the boundary of Hubei smoothly, and entered the Shu land, the road gradually became steep and bumpy, but the elephant walked the mountain road in all directions, and Li En was tired of sitting on the elephant's back, so he stood up and practiced the Emei swordsmanship taught by Xue Tao.
When practicing a sword on the back of a marching elephant, the first thing to practice is not the sword, but the balance of the body.
They tried their best to stay in the post station, but after entering the Shu land, the post station decreased, they bought enough dry food in the town, brought enough water, another advantage of the elephant is that the load is very large, after nightfall, find a stable place, sleep directly on the elephant's back.
In late July, the two of them came to Mount Emei, and came to the main hall of the Emei faction along the plank road under the reception of the welcoming disciples.
As soon as Li En got down from the elephant quilt, he saw two sword-bearing girls in colorful clothes running towards them.
These two are Miss Gao and Ah Qing, and when Li En saw the two of them, tears of excitement welled up in his eyes.
Xue Tao was also happy for them on the side.
Gao Li couldn't help but look at him and said, "You have worked hard all the way!" ”
Ah Qing couldn't help but be surprised when he saw their mounts, and Xue Tao explained, "This is what we and Li Gongzi risked their lives to get in exchange for the money we got from the old lair of the Mirror Lake Chaojiang Dragon. ”
Lee Eun wanted to take Miss Gao's hand, but because the other two were present, he had to give up.
Xue Tao said to them: "Okay, I will hand over Li Gongzi to Miss Gao completely, please write a receipt!" ”
Li En asked, "Receipts? ”
Xue Tao said: "Of course, otherwise, how can I prove that I have delivered you safely to Miss Gao?" ”
Gao Li ordered Ah Qing to write a receipt and said to Li En: "I'll take you to our head to see if she can cure your amnesia?" ”
Li En waved his hand and said, "No need, it doesn't matter to me whether I can remember the previous things or not." ”
Ah Qing wrote the receipt, asked Gao Li to sign it, and handed it to Xue Tao.
Xue Tao put it away, patted Li En's shoulder and said, "Li Gongzi, I wish you good luck and happiness as soon as possible!" ”
Li En thanked him, and Xue Tao said: "I still have to go to see my master, so I won't accompany me, we will have a date later!" ”
Gao Li also took Li En to meet the head of Emei.
Meng Qingqing, the head of the Emei faction, is in the main hall on the top of Emei Mountain, with two disciples of Xiaoshi and Xiaoming standing on both sides, and behind him is a screen painted with colorful phoenixes spreading their wings.
Lee Eun met with the head of the house, and Goryeo introduced the situation.
Meng Qingqing was about thirty years old, with a solemn face, and said in a soft but majestic tone: "Li Gongzi is valued by his seniors and Mr. Gu, and he has broken through thousands of obstacles to come to my Emei, and the deity is very admired, but the deity has a few questions I want to ask Li Gongzi!" ”
Li En hurriedly said: "Master Meng's words are serious, he is only a shallow learner in his later years, and he is not familiar with the affairs of the rivers and lakes, so he does not dare to take on the word "ask for advice!" ”
Master Meng asked straight to the point: "There is a competition between the two factions of Xiuzhen and Xiuwu in the rivers and lakes, what does Li Gongzi think?" ”
Li En said: "Later students thought that this was normal, all academics would have differences, martial arts is also a profound academic, and it is normal for there to be two schools of cultivation, cultivation and enlightenment." ”
"Then if you become the leader of the martial arts alliance, how will you deal with the conflict between these two factions?"
Li En replied: "If you become the leader of the martial arts alliance in your later life, you will isolate the two factions, if the people of these two factions are ordinary people, they will not worry about their lives, but they are people in the rivers and lakes, and they are all strong in martial arts, once they can't fight in words, they will inevitably use force, so they will isolate these two factions, so that they can't see each other, and they won't fight!" ”
After hearing this, Master Meng smiled and said: "I think that all academics can seek development in disputes, and the so-called hundred flowers bloom, know yourself, know the enemy, in order to improve yourself." ”
Li En said: "I'm just a scholar, I'm not interested in the things in the rivers and lakes, and I can't do anything!" ”
Master Meng asked, "Then what are Li Gongzi's plans in the future?" ”
Li En looked at Gao Li next to him and said, "I want to ask Miss Gao to take her to the capital to participate in the scientific examination, after all, I am just a scholar." ”
After hearing this, Master Meng nodded and said, "Okay, you guys go down first!" Gao Li, you arrange a place for Li Gongzi, when you want to leave, come and say goodbye! ”
Goryeo received the order, bid farewell to the head of the house with Li Eun, and left the main hall.
Walking on the ancient plank road, Li En was still a little nervous, so Gao Li asked, "Are my father and brother okay?" ”
Li En hurriedly said: "It's not good, after you left with Ah Qing, your brother and I climbed Lushan Mountain, and met the elders of the Nine Great Sects and Ling Zun, as well as Mr. Gu, I stayed in Donglin Temple for one night, and I went down the mountain on the second day, a group of people in black attacked your house, but I have already rescued Mrs. Gao, and your brother and the three friends of Sui Han also rescued the subordinates of the family and killed this group of people in black." ”
Gao Li was very surprised when he heard this, and said, "So the dream you had is true?" ”
Li En nodded in response, and also asked: "Yes, it's strange, it's obviously a dream, but why did it really happen?" ”
"What about my family? How are they? Miss Gao continued to ask.
Li En replied in detail: "Mrs. Gao is fine, but except for Suo Tong and Mu Xing, the rest of the family was killed by the group of black-clothed people, and Ling Zun took them to Luoyang for medical treatment." ”
Gao Li breathed a sigh of relief and said: "It will take at least half a month to get from here to the capital, you can't keep up with this year's scientific expedition, since you are here, you will live here for a while longer, the scenery of Emei is rare, and you can learn some martial arts of the Emei faction, and you can use it when walking in the rivers and lakes in the future!" ”
Li Endao: "I also want to stay here for a while, but I am worried about Mr. Gu and want to go to Luoyang to meet them, don't you want to reunite with your family?" ”
