All the way to the west, I arrived at Fengxiang Mansion non-stop, I originally wanted to meet Wu Jue quietly for a while, but unfortunately I heard that he went to Yan'an Mansion to inspect military affairs, I don't know if the emperor had already issued a secret decree to him, or Wu Jue himself smelled a trace of subtlety in the air.

According to spy news, Western Xia tightly sealed off Li Changzuo's old nest Xiazhou. After Li Changzuo secretly plotted against Guazhou and Shazhou in the west, he has been going back and forth between Xingqingfu, the royal city of Western Xia, and Yanbian Town, which is adjacent to the Great Song Dynasty, and it is said that he is now in the border town of Mengjing.

In this way, Qu Ping just went to Xianyang by water, and then sailed against the water from Jingshui to Mengjing, even if the border was strictly investigated, it was a big deal to swim under the water.

The decision has been made, so he went straight to Xianyang.

Xianyang is the ancient capital of China's first feudal empire, located between Jiuzhi Mountain and Wei River, with mountains and rivers in the sun, so it is called "Xianyang". Around Xianyang, there are Xiyue Huashan where "only the sky is above, and there are no mountains and Qi", and there is the religious holy place of Zhongnan Mountain, which is "Taiyi is close to the sky, and even the mountains are connected to the corner of the sea", which can be described as a spiritual and outstanding person.

The river is already in dry season in October, so there is no need to worry about the river flowing too fast, and it is not difficult to take a boat upstream. If you ride a horse on the shore, you will have to bump in the crowd and stay in a hotel, and you will spend more time on the shore than on the water. The boatman has a guy who rows in shifts day and night, and he doesn't have to worry about food and accommodation, and he is very safe.

When he arrived at Zhongnan Mountain in Xianyang, Qu Ping remembered an old friend and wanted to take a look, but I don't know if he is out of the customs now.

The majestic South Mountain was in front of him, and Qu Ping looked down and walked away.

"Master, why don't you leave?" Lao Huang saw Qu Ping staring at the mountain and didn't move forward, so he asked.

"I ...... Don't know where he lives......"

Lao Huang secretly said in his heart, I don't know where people live, what you come to visit, and you still have a serious job.

"By the way, maybe you can find a clue in the broken temple last time!" Qu Ping thought about it, and then walked forward.

It should not be difficult for a qualified special forces to find a broken temple that will be connected overnight.

Lao Huang saw Qu Ping walking away, and shouted after him: "Master, you don't know the direction, don't walk around, be careful of getting lost!" ”

The emperor lived up to his wishes, and although he experienced some twists and turns, Qu Ping finally found the ruined temple.

The ruined temple is still as dilapidated as ever, but the dust on the ground is relatively less because of the people who are staying overnight. The cobwebs on the beams are as always, witnessing people coming and going.

Lao Huang chased Qu Ping into the broken temple, observed carefully for a long time, and asked unspeakably: "Master, that friend of yours...... Where to live? ”

"It's not. But he ends here and starts here. Qu Ping said it in a mysterious and philosophical way.

Old Huang Xin said, this is a resurrection from the dead!

Qu Ping walked around the temple and observed, but still did not find any clues, it seems that Wang Chongyang did not plan to leave any clues for himself.

In that case, it is fate to meet again.

Qu Ping and the others walked out of the ruined temple and bumped into a middle-aged man who looked like a woodcutter, with a dead rabbit on his shoulder that he had just hunted, and walked quickly towards this side.

When the woodcutter saw Qu Ping and the others, he muttered, "It's okay, it's okay, I almost won't see it." He shouted as he walked over quickly, "This son, the living dead have asked you to meet!" ”

When Qu Ping heard the "living dead", he laughed and said, "Okay, okay!" ”

Lao Huang secretly spat and said in his heart: Sure enough, he came back from the dead.

Qu Ping and the two followed the woodcutter while walking and chatting.

It turned out that the woodcutter was a villager from Wong Uk Village. He said that last year, a madman dug a hole in the back of their village and stayed for a long time, but he could not get rid of him, and he was not seen to go out on weekdays, and he did not know what he ate to survive. After a long time, the people in the village thought that he was dead, and organized a group of people to quietly grope into the cave, but they saw that they were alive and well, and their emaciated bodies looked even more fairy.

When the villagers saw that he had been living in a cave in the ground, they privately called him "the living dead".

After a long time, people felt that he might be a master of cultivation, and he had reached the realm of Bigu, saving him the trouble of eating, drinking, and Lazar.

The woodcutter said, "Yesterday I was chopping wood and coming home, and suddenly the living dead stood in front of me, and I was scared to death. He took out a silver ingot from his tattered clothes and told me to go to the ruined temple at this time today to help him pick up a son, presumably you. No, brother, I chased this rabbit just now, and I almost missed this matter, sorry, sorry! ”

Qu Ping said: "It's hard work, brother. He's a distant relative of mine, and we've made an appointment to meet today. ”

"Oh, I see. I thought he could pinch and calculate without leaving the house. The woodcutter touched the silver in his bosom and felt a stronger sense of reality.

After nearly two quarters of an hour, he finally followed the woodcutter to the dwelling of the living dead.

The woodcutter pointed to the slightly raised cave ten meters away and said, "When I arrive, I won't go in with you." ”

Qu Ping thanked him and said, "Thank you, brother." It's better to be late, and we haven't eaten yet, so why don't you sell this rabbit and me, and help me cook it by the way. Lao Huang gave this old brother a penny, you help deal with this rabbit together, and I will go back when I go. ”

Lao Huang was a little reluctant, and he repeatedly told Qu Ping to be careful.

The woodcutter took the money handed over by Lao Huang, and said with a smile: "Come on, it's a trivial matter, so much money, it's enough to buy this rabbit." I'll come as soon as I go, help you get salt, and bring some wine, haha! ”

Qu Ping explained that Lao Huang was waiting outside, walked to the cave alone, and lifted a stone slab with force, only to see that it was pitch black inside. When the eyes gradually adjust to the darkness, they see a faint light reflected inside.

Qu Ping jumped in and walked along a single path. The more you walk, the brighter it becomes, and it turns out that the walls on both sides are inlaid with luminous stones.

After walking for half a pillar of incense, the front suddenly widened. On the ground in the center, a gossip pattern is arranged with a night pearl, and in the center, a person has his back to the entrance, slowly getting up and turning back from a meditative posture.

That person was the owner of the tomb of the living dead, Wang Chongyang.

"Long time no see, Brother Wang. You're a big deal, and you're going to have to spend a lot of money, right? Qu Ping looked at the night pearls everywhere and said.

Wang Chongyang said: "I really don't want to go to this ugly place when I am tired. But this time is special, and the mountain people really can't go out, and I hope you will forgive me! ”29GG

Qu Ping thought to himself that cultivators must be exquisite, maybe they have reached the critical moment of breakthrough, and he said, "That's me bothering you, haha!" It seems that Brother Wang's Taoism is getting more and more advanced, and he can even calculate that Qu will come here. ”

"This is mysterious, it can't be humane to outsiders, and I hope you will forgive me."

"Don't keep saying forgiveness, it's too foreign."

"My lord, please take a seat," Wang Chongyang handed Qu Ping a futon and said, "If it weren't for the help of adults, Poor Dao would not have had this opportunity." In the final analysis, adults are poor people. ”

"It's too famous, it's too famous! It's just that Brother Wang, your piece of gold is too shiny, so I have the heart to be greedy for money and pull you over, haha. ”

There is no need to hammer the drum, and there is no need to repeat the words, Wang Chongyang is grateful to Qu Ping for his help back then, but it seems hypocritical to say too much thanks.

Qu Ping said: "I don't know what Brother Wang's name is?" ”

Cultivators will have a bullish name.

Wang Chongyang said: "Chongyangzi." ”

"Good, mighty, domineering!" Qu Ping praised, "The Taoist can pinch and calculate, I don't know if you can help me calculate, what will happen to my trip to Western Xia?" ”

Wang Chongyang hesitated slightly, and really pinched his fingers to count.

Qu Pingxin said: "Looking at his hesitation, it is estimated that this kind of peeping into heaven will have an impact on him, but his fleeting hesitation shows that he still does not forget the old feelings, although he is now a cultivator." As the saying goes, if you don't enter the WTO, how can you know how to be born, and if you don't understand love, how can you break love. ”

After thinking about it, Wang Chongyang already had the answer in his heart.

"In a dream, the world is chaotic, the north gate is full of wolves, rise up and settle down, and the displacement will eventually return." Wang Chongyang recited a mantra.

Qu Ping asked, "What do you mean?" ”

"I don't know." Wang Chongyang's answer was very crisp, even more crisp than crisp noodles.

Qu Pingxin said that Wang Chongyang may not want to leak the opportunity again, so he has the right to assume that he doesn't know.

Qu Ping said haha: "It's man-made, God rewards hard work, let's see!" Brother Wang, I asked someone to roast a hare outside, do you want to satisfy your hunger? ”

Wang Chongyang Gujing Bubo said: "The six mundane roots are empty, and the desire for the mouth is just to increase the dregs of the stomach, it is better to absorb the essence of heaven and earth to be pure." ”

It seems that Wang Chongyang is really Bigu.

Qu Ping suddenly remembered his master, the master should be many layers higher than Wang Chongyang, right? After all, he can count himself from a thousand years later.

Qu Ping said: "In this case, it is an honor for Qu to see Brother Wang, and he has fulfilled his wish, so I will leave today." ”

"Adults don't have to hurry to walk slowly, there are some old teas here in the poor road, can you stay and taste it?" Wang Chongyang kept it.

Qu Pingxin said that he was not more hungry when he drank tea, but seeing his hospitality, he stayed for a while to see what else he had to learn, and maybe he would vomit in the open air while chatting.

So, the two sat opposite each other in the gossip array, drinking tea pot after pot.

"Brother Wang, this is the seventh pot, and my stomach is about to burst, so I drink it dry like this and don't speak? For example, you can say something ...... You know? Qu Ping finally couldn't help but ask.

Wang Chongyang took a shallow sip and said, "Everything is in this tea, it depends on whether you can drink it or not." ”

Qu Ping took a sip of a full glass: "But no." Qu Ping shook his head and caught a glimpse of a door in the cave, glowing like nothing, "Brother Wang, won't you take me to visit your cave mansion?" ”

Wang Chongyang looked at the door and said a little helplessly: "Adults don't mind, it's okay." ”

Qu Ping got up and took the lead, and the light in the hidden door was even greater. Qu Ping turned around and saw Wang Chongyang coming up, pushed open the door, and saw a jade stone the size of a marching bed placed in the center of the room.

Qu Pingxin said: "Reckless, I saw other people's treasures!" Today is really abrupt, at least you shouldn't be in a hurry to open the door. ”

Invisibly, there must be a dark traction.

Wang Chongyang walked past Qu Ping, who was staying at the door, and introduced: "This is a piece of warm jade chalcedony, which I accidentally discovered in this underground. ”

Qu Ping said secretly: "How can it be so coincidental, maybe you have already seen that there is a treasure in this underground, so you dug a hole here to practice." He asked, "What is chalcedony?" ”

"It's the essence of it."

"What's so amazing about these treasures?"

"It can help self-cultivation and self-cultivation, and it can also be worth the country!"

"That's amazing!" Qu Ping gently touched the chalcedony, "The most powerful is still the king of the road!" ”

Wang Chongyang was noncommittal, he said: "If you like it, you will send it." ”

"A gentleman doesn't take away people's favor, this thing can help Brother Wang cultivate, so you should keep it yourself. When you get the way, it's not too late to send me again, haha! You won't eat it anyway. ”

Qu Ping said and said, there was a trace of sleepiness, it can't be that he is too tired these days, and he wants to sleep when he sees the bed.

Wang Chongyang saw Qu Ping's sleepiness and said, "Adults are tired, you might as well take a rest." ”
