Chapter 11: Humble Jos
"What are you afraid of, Zhong Kui, who has practiced ghost hunting for half a year, doesn't even have this bit of balance?"
"I ...... I do not know! ”
Guo Song scratched his head, he couldn't imagine that he jumped directly off the cliff, he had to grab the vines in mid-air, wouldn't it be over if he couldn't catch it?
"Master, disciple first find a rope to practice!"
Mu Zhenren glared at him in annoyance, "What are you talking about, jump!" You can't die with me. ”
Guo Song was so helpless that he had to clasp his palms together and pray in a low voice, "Sanqing is above, bless the disciples to be safe and sound." ”
As soon as he gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and jumped down, as soon as his body left the cliff, he screamed miserably, the wind whistled in his ears, and the desire to survive made him instinctively reach out and grab it, but he couldn't catch anything, his body suddenly struck, and was grabbed by Mu Zhenren in the air.
"You useless fool, who told you to close your eyes, you have to open your eyes to find vines or stones, and start again!"
Mu Zhenren shook it hard, and actually threw Guo Song up.
Guo Song sat down on the ground, his face was pale, he was almost frightened, what is this called! Has the fourth brother practiced? He didn't know, but the fat pig figure of the third child definitely hadn't been practiced.
"What are you muttering on it, don't jump yet!"
Guo Song wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, got up and said fiercely: "It's a big deal, Lao Tzu is out." ”
This time he didn't dare to close his eyes, imagining that there was a soft grass or a clear river one zhang below, he took a deep breath, pressed against the dantian, and jumped.
Guo Song's heart sank downward, his body fell rapidly, without waiting for him to think about it, he saw the vines at a glance, reached out and grabbed it, his body swung outward, he instinctively turned around, his body came back, did not swing out, and leaned firmly on the cliff.
Mu Zhenren laughed and said, "I'm right! It's not hard for you. ”
Guo Song was also surprised, he grabbed the vine, felt that his body was very light and stable, hanging motionless on the cliff, like a gecko.
Could this be the effect of practicing the independence of the golden rooster?
Mu Zhenren pointed to the top of Guo Song's head and said, "There is a stone three feet above you, you jump up and grab it." ”
"But...... Disciples can't borrow power! ”
"With your arm strength, there's no problem, your fourth senior brother grabbed it the first time."
It turned out that the fourth brother had also practiced, Guo Song made up his mind a little, since the fourth brother can do it, then he should be able to do it too.
He kicked the stone wall hard, his body swung outward, just when the body swung back, his feet kicked down the stone wall, felt a little friction, pulled his arms violently, his body jumped up, Guo Song saw it clearly, grabbed the stone with all his might, his body quickly stabilized, and stuck to the stone wall like a gecko.
Mu Zhenren nodded secretly, the fourth child practiced for three months to catch this stone, Guo Song grabbed it the first time, it was really not easy!
Mu Zhenren smiled: "There is a stone crack next to you, climb up along the stone crack, and jump again!" ”
There is indeed a very thin stone crack next to it, and his fingers can only reach into it at most, but this is nothing to Guo Song, his arm strength is strong, his body is very light, as long as there is a place to borrow strength, he can quickly climb up.
Jumping twice in a row, Guo Song felt a little bottom in his heart, and the third time, he gently went down, his body was as close to the stone wall as possible, and he used the friction of his feet on the stone wall to slow down the fall of his body slightly, and when he fell to three zhang, he delicately reached out and grabbed the vine, and his body was firmly attached to the stone wall.
Mu Zhenren saw that he had a very high level of understanding, and he didn't teach him, he himself knew how to use his feet to slow down the fall of his body, this kid was really a rare genius.
"You stinky boy, do you want me to change your shoes?"
Mu Zhenren scolded him with a smile, and said, "Let's continue to go down!" ”
As soon as he let go, his body fell down again, Guo Song could see clearly, the master only used his foot to click on the stone wall a few times, his body slowed down, and when he was twenty zhang, he lightly grabbed another vine, and like himself, his body was attached to the stone wall like a gecko.
Guo Song found the trick, he was excited, and he let go of the vines and continued to fall, but after all, he had only practiced the golden rooster for half a year, and he couldn't just click a few times on the stone wall like Mu Zhenren, his feet kept rubbing against the stone wall, and his shoes quickly wore out, he felt that he had a wonderful balance, and his body fell steadily, without losing control.
Guo Song fell to Mu Zhenren's side, and also grasped a vine lightly, and his body was firmly attached to the stone wall.
"Not bad! Very good! ”
Mu Zhenren praised him without hesitation, "Practice to this level today, you practice a few more times yourself, and we will come back tomorrow." ”
With that, as soon as he let go, he fell like a bird down the cliff and was quickly engulfed in the clouds.
"Master, wait a minute......"
Guo Song was dumbfounded, Master is leaving, so how should he go back?
.........
It took Guo Song two hours to climb the cliff, using every vine and every crevice, and had to return to the original point three times, and almost fell off the cliff.
It wasn't until noon that Guo Song climbed to the top of the cliff with difficulty, and as soon as he touched a stone on the top of the cliff, he felt that one of them grabbed his wrist and pulled him up.
It turned out to be Senior Brother Gan Feng, Guo Song sat on the ground exhausted and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother." ”
Gan Feng scratched his head and said a little apologetically: "There is something I forgot to tell you, I hope it will not be too late." ”
"What's the matter?"
"A few days ago, Master asked me to tell you that there is a cave thirty zhang on the far left side of the cliff, and the cave leads directly to the back mountain, and you can climb up from the back mountain, but I was busy reading the scriptures, so I forgot about it, little junior brother, it doesn't matter!"
Guo Song planted his head on the ground, and said weakly: "It's okay, this news is very 'timely', thank you senior brother." ”
........
Taking advantage of the guilt of the senior brother, Guo Song ate two large bowls of rice at noon and extorted a pair of old shoes, so that he felt a little more balanced in his heart.
"Senior brother, I'm going to carry water?"
Guo Song shouted, and then walked down the mountain with two wooden barrels, in the past six months, he has grown at least seven centimeters taller, and his physique is strong, although he is only eight years old, he looks no different from a twelve-year-old boy.
What's more important is that he is mentally mature, and he has an uncle's pursuit and dream hidden in his heart.
You don't need to go to Danzheng Lake to carry water, there is a mountain spring next to the Shengxian Bridge on the mountainside, and it is about a mile away.
Guo Song walked down a path quickly, faintly heard the sound of the mountain spring in the distance, and then down is a small pool, bypassing a big tree, Guo Song saw the green pool, there is a small Taoist priest carrying water by the pool, it should be the Taoist priest of Jingle Palace.
Jingle Palace is one of the two Taoist temples in Xiangshan, it is in the other direction of Shengxian Bridge, about two miles away from here, I heard the fourth senior brother say, the conditions there are much better than Qingxuguan, dozens of acres of land have been opened, and there are more than 30 Taoist priests.
Guo Song saw that the little Taoist priest had already fetched water, and he limped back, very difficult, Guo Song suddenly felt that the back of the little Taoist priest was a little familiar, and he blurted out: "Little five! ”
The little Taoist priest stopped, turned around slowly, and Guo Song immediately recognized that it was his only good friend in the Receiving Academy, Han Xiaowu.
Guo Song was overjoyed and rushed over, "Little Wu, it's me!" ”
Han Xiaowu also recognized Guo Song, a smile appeared on his thin face, and he immediately lowered his head again, and an indescribable sadness flashed in his eyes.
Guo Song ran forward and hugged his shoulders tightly, "Little Wu, I still want to have a chance to go to Jingle Palace to play with you!" ”
Han Xiaowu reluctantly smiled, "Guo Song, you have changed so much, you look so strong, I almost can't recognize you." ”
"And what's the matter with you?"
Guo Song looked at him and saw that he was thin and small, and his physique seemed to be a little weaker than when he chose the road.
"You.... You didn't have a good time at Jingle Palace? ”
"It's alright! I was in charge of growing vegetables, and Master took good care of me. ”
"What's wrong with your legs?"
Guo Song suddenly found that his leg was wrong, and immediately squatted down to lift his robe, Han Xiaowu was so frightened that he hurriedly retreated, almost falling.
Guo Song held him and pinched his left leg, the calf bone was bent, and the muscles were atrophied, which was a manifestation of not being connected well after the calf fracture, and the legs were long and short, and he was disabled for life.
"Little Wu, what's wrong, why did you break a bone?" Guo Song raised his head and looked at him in surprise.
Han Xiaowu couldn't hold back any longer, tears fell down his eyes, and he cried: "I was beaten by them." ”
"Who hit it, the people from Jingle Palace?"
Han Xiaowu shook his head and said in a choked voice: "It was Zhang Hu'er who beat them." ”
