Chapter 72: Tangram Psychedelic Array

The two climbed to the top of the cliff and found that the mountain had slowed down sharply, and an open space appeared in front of them. Directly across the open field is a trail that winds up the hill to the top.

At the top of the mountain, there is a Taoist temple, looming in the clouds. The sides of the trail are overgrown with weeds and thorns, and if you don't take the trail up the mountain, you are afraid that it will be difficult to walk an inch. Seeing that there was no one on the road, the two ran all the way to the top of the mountain, and hid in front of the Taoist temple, hiding in the bushes, and sticking out their heads to snoop.

I saw that this temple was magnificent, occupying the entire peak, and under the walls on both sides, there were thousands of abysses. Looking down further, the clouds and mist are misty and white. If you want to explore the situation of the southern peaks of Jinyun Mountain, you must climb over this Taoist temple.

Zheng Liuyi didn't know the origin of this Taoist temple and what it had to do with the thieves in Jin Yunshan, so he didn't dare to rush forward to borrow it, so he said to Tong Junchu: "Sixth brother, there is a Taoist temple in the thieves' den, I'm afraid that it will be all the way with those thieves, so let's sneak over the past." ”

Tong Jianlin nodded, and the two of them quietly came to the wall, and looked inside on the wall, only to see the green smoke curling in the hall, and about a dozen Taoist priests were chanting words in their mouths and attending morning classes.

Taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the Taoist priests, the two hurried along the wall, and in a blink of an eye came to the backyard of the Taoist temple, the courtyard was empty, Zheng Liuyi couldn't help but feel relieved, but he couldn't prevent a piece of brick and stone under his feet from loosening, stepping on it, and sliding down with the bricks.

Zheng Liuyi reached out with his left hand, grabbed the wall steadily, stretched out his right hand to catch the brick, and gently put it back in place, the whole process did not make a sound, seeing Tong Junchu praise again and again, Zheng Liuyi himself couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

was about to turn over the wall again, when he heard a voice from the house in the backyard: "Since the two sons are here, why are they in a hurry to leave?" ”

Before he could finish speaking, a figure had already floated out of the house.

Rub and be found! Zheng Liuyi saw that the person's body method was very fast, far from being comparable to himself and Tong Junchu, and he suddenly felt very bad. At this time, if you are in danger and have nowhere to escape, you have to face it directly. So he jumped off the wall and landed firmly on the ground.

At this time, he heard a commotion behind him, and it turned out that Tong Junchu did not step on his foot when he encountered a sudden change, and fell down from the wall. Seeing this, Zheng Liuyi put one hand on Tong Junchu's waist, turned his body, and removed the force of the fall, Tong Junchu fell to the ground steadily, without the slightest embarrassment when he fell.

When the man saw it, he couldn't help but bow his head slightly, and secretly praised in his heart that it was not easy for this kid to have such skills at such a young age.

Seeing Tong Junchu landing smoothly, Zheng Liuyi raised his eyes to look at the person who came, and saw that it was a middle-aged Taoist priest, with handsome eyebrows, black hair, hair in a bun combed neatly, and a light gray Taoist robe was blown by the mountain wind, and the hem was slightly floating, which was quite a bit of a floating feeling.

As soon as Zheng Liu saw that this Taoism was extraordinary, he immediately arched his hand and said: "My brothers and I went into the mountains to play, lost the path, I wanted to borrow the Tao from Guiguan, but I didn't expect to disturb the Taoist Qingxiu, it's a sin!" ”

The Taoist priest stared at Zheng Liuyi for a long time, and saw that Zheng Liuyi's heart was furious. What's going on? Could it be that this stinky Taoist priest is in the same group as the thieves under the mountain, and wants to be unfavorable to the two of us?

was in doubt, only to hear the Taoist priest say: "I don't know where the two sons are in the fairy town?" Can I go into the house along the poor road? ”

It's okay to go into any house, don't you see that people are busy? Although Zheng Liuyi was anxious, he didn't dare to refuse rashly, after all, he was on someone else's territory. I had to say, "That being the case, then it will be disturbing!" ”

The two followed the Taoist priest into the house, and the layout of the room was extremely simple, with a bed and a few cases, some Taoist classics were placed on the case, and a few futons were placed on both sides of the case.

Entering the house, the Taoist priest glanced at Zheng Liuyi deeply and said, "Forgive the poor Dao for being presumptuous, dare to ask if this son's surname is Zheng?" ”

Zheng Liuyi was very surprised, the two of them were very secretive on this trip, how did this Taoist priest know about this high mountain, could it really be a Taoist magic, and he could pinch it? If this Taoist priest colludes with the thieves, things will be much more difficult.

However, seeing that this Taoist priest looks like a master in the world, he should not be in the company of bandits. It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, so what's the point of telling him what he's here for?

Zheng Liuyi then said: "The Taoist chief's eyes are like torches, and his surname is Zheng, from Chengdu City. It's just that the goods were robbed here a few days ago, so I want to go to the back mountain to see what the cottage is. ”

"Hahaha, it's not as expected by the poor road." The Taoist priest smiled slightly, took out the teacup, made two cups of tea and put them in front of the two, and said again: "Sure enough, it is the son of Zheng Tingshi, otherwise how can there be such a similar person in the world?" ”

Please, don't gasp for breath when you talk, okay? I'm scared to death, I almost thought I had fallen into your trap. Zheng Liuyi finished slandering and said: "I didn't expect the Taoist chief to know my father, and I don't know the name of Changgao?" ”

The Taoist priest said: "The surname of the poor Taoist family is Luo, his real name is Luo Yuanxiu, and the Taoist name is Yuan Zhenzi." In his early years, he studied the five arts, and studied in the history of Zheng Thorn, and Ling Zun gave guidance in various ways, which made the poor road more beneficial, and it is still unforgettable. ”

This also climbed up to relatives, which couldn't help but make Zheng Liuyi overjoyed. It's just that this Taoist priest learns martial arts, what is he looking for Zheng Zongwen to do? How did he know that the "five arts" mentioned by Taoism are actually "mountain, medicine, life, physiognomy, and divination", which are the most important parts of Taoism. It is normal to find Zheng Zongwen to learn medical skills.

When Zheng Liuyi looked ignorant, he only heard Yuan Sadako continue: "Childe ventured to climb the mountain, presumably he encountered difficulties, you might as well talk to Poor Dao, maybe Poor Dao can answer questions for Childe." ”

This Taoist priest is quick to talk, and he doesn't beat around the bush at all. Zheng Liuyi was also not polite, so he told Yuan Zhenzi about the robbery of the goods, the frustration of the maze at the foot of the mountain and the mountain gate.

Yuan Zhenzi smiled slightly and said, "That maze is called the Seven Clever Psychedelic Array, but it is a small technique, which is not surprising. It's just that Ruan Xu, the owner of the village, has been recruiting troops and buying horses in recent years, and his appetite is getting bigger and bigger. ”

"The Taoist knows the owner of the village?" Tong Junchu on the side asked.

"How do you not know the poor road, but the friendship is not shallow!" After Motosadako finished speaking, she picked up the teacup and took a sip gently.

Can you talk more happily? Stopped at every critical point, Zheng Liuyi was speechless for a while, Tong Junchu's heart tightened, and his right hand reached for the hilt.

Yuan Zhenzi saw Tong Junchu's movements in his eyes, smiled slightly, and said: "That Ruan Xu was injured more than ten years ago and took a little girl, fled to Benguan, and was rescued by Poor Dao. After staying on the mountain for more than half a year, I learned some micro-finishing techniques, and then went down the mountain. ”

"Later, although he was the king of Jin Yunshan and set up a trap in the mountain pass, he did not do evil, but he just robbed the rich and helped the poor. In recent years, the cottager Ding has prospered, and it seems that he has long forgotten what I taught him at the beginning. ”

How to break the formation, you say, Zheng Liuyi was anxious and asked, "Luo Daochang, how should this seven-trick psychedelic array be broken?" ”

"His tangram psychedelic array is unreasonable, and there is no defense after the point, which is really unreasonable." Yuan Zhenzi shook her head, said a few things that didn't make sense, suddenly looked at Zheng Liuyi steadily, and said: "Although the set-up of the Tangram Psychedelic Array is coincidental, it actually depends on the scheduling of the point general, and if the point is destroyed, the formation will be self-defeating." How can there be no ambush behind the general's platform? ”

Isn't this nonsense, the enemy is blocked out of the mountain, what else do you want to ambush? Zheng Liuyi glanced at Yuan Zhenzi resentfully, and said in his heart: You have a bit of a fairy wind and bones, but you can't talk to the point.

I only heard Tong Junchu ask: "Does the Dao Chief mean to let us attack from behind and break his formation?" ”

"Exactly!" Yuan Sadako smiled and nodded, with a teachable expression.

Zheng Liuyi was puzzled: "Daoist Luo, but we can't enter his mountain gate!" ”

"The mountain people have their own clever plan, I just hope that the two of them will not kill innocents indiscriminately, leaving the lives of Ruan Xu's brothers and sisters and all the minions, and they are forced to fall into the grass here." Yuan Zhenzi took the teacup and drank it all, and said, "Helping you get the goods back today can be regarded as returning Zheng Tingshi's favor." Come with me, both of you! ”
