41. Meet a real person

"You are the Shen Qiu that my nephew always talks about, Shen Daxia?" In the Medicine King Village, Feng Yafu sat under the grapevines, squinting his eyes, looking at Shen Qiu, and said, "It's you who rescued Lin Yundong?" ”

"I don't dare to call myself a hero in front of Uncle Feng, as for the time when Master Lin was in charge, it was just luck." Shen Qiu replied modestly: "At that time, Xiao Tie and I were just new to the rivers and lakes, and we didn't know that the Demon Sect was dangerous, and fortunately, there was no master in the Changsha branch of the Seven Peerless Sects. Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, and if I were to save them now, I would have to hesitate a little. ”

"That's what I said." Feng Yafu nodded, and he said, "But with your humble martial arts, you still dare to do such a risky thing, which shows that Lin Yundong is not wrong in his evaluation of you." The head of Xiaoxiang said that you have a heart of a hero, and after the old man detoxified her, she also said that she would find an opportunity to repay you. ”

"Don't dare to be." Shen Qiu laughed, Feng Yafu invited him to sit down, and said with a smile: "Lin Yundong, when he was young, his personality was a little twisted. The old man and her are also old acquaintances, she took the initiative to thank someone, this is the first time, I heard Xiao Tie say, you came to Mount Tai this time, is to send an invitation to the Jade Palace? ”

"Yes." Shen Qiu replied: "The Luoyang Heluo Gang wants to hold the Central Plains Martial Arts Conference, and Lei Lie said that I have an old relationship with the Jade Emperor Palace, so he asked me to send an invitation to Daoist Ziwei." But I don't think that's going to happen. ”

"Why?" The Medicine King asked. Shen Qiu was also calm, he said half-helplessly, half-sarcastically: "It Heluo Gang, it doesn't have that face, and it can invite the master of the Heavenly List." ”

"If it's someone else, it's just a matter of being invited, even if you don't attend, most of them will give some face and send disciples to participate. But the Jade Emperor Palace is transcendent in the rivers and lakes, and they are all outsiders. As a lobbyist, I didn't have much hope. "Shen Qiu's words have some truth, the Jade Emperor Palace is a sect of the Dao, although the force is superb, but it is low-key, compared to the rivers and lakes, the influence of this sect in the world is obviously greater.

"That's what you think about." The medicine king ghost doctor had a different opinion, he squinted his eyes, twisted his beard, and said to Shen Qiu: "You young people, you don't know the grievances and grievances of the previous generation. That Lei Lie is confident that he will send you to Mount Tai, and what he values is not the little scene you have with Ziwei Daoist in Suzhou. His confidence is the love you have for helping Lin Yundong and saving her. Speaking of this, Feng Yafu seemed to be holding back a smile, and whispered to Shen Qiu and Xiao Tie: "This is a secret matter of the rivers and lakes, and few people mention it now, you don't know that when Ziwei Daoist was young, there was some past between him and Lin Yundong. If you go to the Jade Palace this time, even if the Jade Palace Lord doesn't look down on the scene of the Heluo Gang, for your sake of saving Lin Yundong's life, he won't embarrass you too much. ”

"I see." Shen Qiu suddenly realized, but the upright Xiao Tie frowned. He really didn't know that.

"This is to use my eldest brother's favor to benefit him Lei Lie." Xiao Tie said dissatisfiedly: "It's really treacherous." ”

"Xiao Tie, you don't have to be too anxious, this Jianghu is like this, you guys, you guys will live in Luoyang for a long time from now on. It's not a bad thing to sell some favors to build a good relationship with the Heluo Gang. Feng Yafu shook his head and said to Xiao Tie: "Don't worry too much, this favor is meant to be used to exchange things, just send an invitation, and it won't hurt too much favor, it's better to push the boat down the river, and he is all thunderous and calculating." The more stable Luoyang is, the better it will be for you to develop in the future. Shen Qiu didn't care too much about that.

Anyway, I didn't plan to get any more benefits from Lin Yundong. Thinking a little darker, Lin Yundong's eldest disciple Lin Lang, after all, died in the hands of Shen Qiu, that is also the grace of many years of nurturing, Lin Yundong does not hate him, it is already a very good situation.

"I'll leave for Mount Tai in the afternoon." Shen Qiu arched his hand to the Medicine King, and he whispered: "It's just that there is one more thing before leaving, I want to ask Uncle Feng for help, I know that Uncle Feng's medical skills are all over the sky, can you make that Sword Monarch's consciousness loose for a moment, I want to ask him for something." Shen Qiu glanced at Xiao Tie and said to Feng Yafu: "At this time, it is related to the inheritance of Xiao Tie Master, and we can't afford to be sloppy." ”

"What's so hard about that?" The ghost doctor waved his hand indifferently, and he said, "But since you have entered my Zhuangzi, you are a patient, so you have to protect him." You two can ask, but you can't kill him. ”

"It won't break Uncle Feng's rules." Shen Qiu assured: "Just ask a few questions. ”

"You two come with me." Feng Yafu got up and walked to the medicine room, Shen Qiu and Xiao Tie followed behind, seeing the ghost doctor go in for a while, he came out, he said to Shen Qiu: "A stick of incense, hurry up." Shen Qiu nodded and walked into the room, but Feng Yafu put two fingers on his wrist, as if to diagnose the pulse, but after only a moment of contact, his fingers were released.

Shen Qiu looked at the Medicine King in surprise. The latter ignored him, but left slowly with a mysterious smile.

Shen Qiu pursed his lips, with the ghost doctor methods that are prevalent in the rivers and lakes, the Shuo Xue True Qi in his body, I am afraid that he will not be able to hide it from this Uncle Feng.

When the two approached the medicine room, they saw Liu Zhuoran sitting on a stone platform with his heart to the sky, naked and naked, with a few needles on his chest and the top of his head.

There was also a foul smell on his body. Looking at his face, it seems that he is in great pain, and he must taste unpleasant.

But there was a trace of invisible airflow, wrapped around Liu Zhuoran's body, like a wind, blowing the surrounding drugs swaying and moving.

It's not that the true qi escapes, but this air current, with a different looseness, is like a cloud undulating, which is completely different from luck.

"Is this a distraction?" Shen Qiu had never seen the scene of the Jianghu guests dispersing their internal strength. But he had heard of such operations.

The principle is very simple, make the dantian true qi cyclone rotate counterclockwise at high speed in the opposite direction, and the direction of the meridians of the true qi will cause the true qi to peel off and the true qi of the whole body to turn upside down.

While destroying the dantian, he can expel all the true qi in his body. This process is said to be quite painful, like a knife twisting.

"Uncle Feng said that in addition to being poisoned, the Sword Monarch also has a strange Gu in his body, unless the Sword Monarch dissipates his true qi, the strange Gu cannot be cleared, and naturally there is no way to detoxify him." Xiao Tie explained to Shen Qiu in a low voice.

Shen Qiu, who listened to it, was a little speechless, this Shen Lan was really stubborn. In order to take revenge on Liu Zhuoran, not only did he practice evil skills, but also used strange poison and strange Gu, in order to completely knock Liu Zhuoran into the dust, so that he would never have a day to turn over.

"Women are crazy, and it's really scary." Shen Qiu sighed, then stepped forward, and said to Liu Zhuoran: "Sword Monarch, let me ask you, have you really been expelled from Penglai, and you will have nothing to do with that immortal mountain in the future?" Liu Zhuoran himself was scattering his skills again, and the rotten poison was raging in his body, and he was the weakest time, but he was injected again at this time.

In the face of Shen Qiu's inquiry, he was like a coma and said, "Yes, the master expelled me from Penglai, and I was cut off from righteousness, and after that, I was a person in the red dust, and I have nothing to do with the immortal mountain and immortal road." Shen Qiu's doubts dissipated a little.

At this time, it is not the era of cultivating immortals, what is there to maintain the divine soul, in this situation, it is impossible for Liu Zhuoran to lie.

"Your master, is it Dong Lingjun?" Shen Qiu asked again. Liu Zhuoran's face was sad and responded.

"What is the secret in Penglai Mountain?"

"I, I don't know. But if there is really a secret, it should be in the Penglai Immortal Pavilion, except for the apprenticeship, I have not been there again. ”

"Where is Penglai Mountain?"

"Above the East China Sea, thousands of miles away, Dongying, the intersection of Sanhan and the Central Plains, in the mist, on the desert island, Penglai Guding, is the step to enter the immortal mountain." Shen Qiu and Xiao Tie glanced at each other, and sure enough, they knew everything.

He asked again: "In Penglai Mountain, are there immortals?" ”

"None." Liu Zhuoran's answer this time was a little more ups and downs. It seems that he himself can't be sure, he said: "The head of the Daojun, my master, and the three immortal mountain protectors, all of them take the martial arts, and they have not seen the appearance of immortals, but the mountain protection array has been opened for thousands of years, and there is also the spiritual qi to promote. ”

"Reiki?" Shen Qiu's eyes blinked, this kind of remnant of the Xianxia era is still there?

"What is the relationship between Folding Mountain and Penglai?" Shen Qiu asked the question that Xiao Tie wanted to know the most, but Liu Zhuoran didn't answer it for a long time, probably because he couldn't be sure in his heart.

After Shen Qiu asked again and again, he replied in a daze: "I guess in my heart that the Moving Mountain should be the 'Mountain Moving Monarch' among the three Spirit Sword Monarchs in Penglai, but he has already left Penglai decades ago, and it seems that he is involved in the major affairs of the door." Master didn't say much. All I know is that in that incident, one of the Three Spirit Swords, the 'Red Dust Sword', was destroyed, and Red Dust Jun died. The 'Juque Sword' and the Mountain Mover are nowhere to be found, leaving only the Ling Xuan Sword still in Penglai. And the sword behind the little iron brothers, if I expected it to be true, should be the lost giant spirit sword of Penglai. Shen Qiu asked more secrets, but Liu Zhuoran couldn't answer.

Although he is a disciple of Dongling Jun, he is not a core member in Penglai Mountain, which values the inheritance position, and he walks with a sword in the rivers and lakes all the year round.

I know no more than Shen Qiu and Xiao Tie. When a stick of incense was about to arrive, Shen Qiu said to Liu Zhuoran warmly: "Jianjun doesn't have to worry about the future, and heal his injuries with his heart, since Xiao Tie has helped you, he will help to the end, and after Jianjun recovers from his illness, he will send Jianjun back to the South China Sea to reunite with his family." Relax and listen to the doctor, and your illness will soon be cured. After some persuasion, Shen Qiu and Xiao Tie left the medicine room.

Xiao Tie's eyes were full of doubts, and this inquiry, not only did not ask about the master's secret, but made him more suspicious.

"At least it has been proven that there must be a secret in this Penglai Mountain, and your master did not deceive you." Shen Qiu took Xiao Tie to say goodbye to Feng Yafu and went to Mount Tai, when he left Zhuangzi, he said to Xiao Tie: "If there is a chance in the future, we will explore one or two, if we can't explore, we will stay away." ”

"Hmm." Xiao Tie nodded, he touched the hilt of the sword behind his back, and said, "It's just that I'm afraid that this giant sword will bring me and my eldest brother, and Qingqing some more trouble." The Sword Monarch also said that this sword is Penglai's lost spirit sword, and it can be seen from the previous recourse of the Liaodong East Spirit Monarch that they will not give up. ”

"Then you have to practice martial arts with your heart!" Shen Qiu rode on the horse and said to Xiao Tie: "You also heard Liu Zhuoran say, there are no immortals in Penglai, everyone has their heads on their shoulders, and they are all martial arts, both of them are mortals in the flesh, and what are you afraid of him doing?" If we repel Dong Lingjun once, we will be able to repel him a second time. ”

"Brother Tie, Brother Tie, wait for me!" Shen Qiu and Xiao Tie drove the carriage, and after taking a few steps, they heard a shout behind them, and when the two of them looked back, they saw Xiao Wenjing, who had changed his clothes, running out of the Medicine King Manor with his baggage.

She was a little weak, panting for run, and when she got to the carriage, she jumped into it, and was caught by Xiao Tie in her hand and pulled into the carriage.

"Grandpa asked me to go to Mount Tai with you and send some medicine to Daoist Ziwei." Xiao Wenjing, this girl, treats people fiercely, but if she is familiar, she will be closer.

She wiped the sweat from her forehead, and said to Xiao Tie and Shen Qiu with a smile: "There are two masters of the rivers and lakes to protect him, and grandpa said that he can rest assured." Xiao Tie doesn't care about bringing Wenjing, his father and Feng Yafu are good friends, and he and Xiao Wenjing naturally have a bit of natural affection.

However, Shen Qiu, who was driving the carriage, was concerned about another issue. While driving the carriage to Mount Tai, he looked back at Wen Jing, and said, "Girl, you just said that this medicine is for Daoist Ziwei?" The master of the list that day, could it be that there is a hidden disease? ”

"Well, I can't say that." Xiao Wen Jing knew that she was speechless, so she returned to her fierce appearance, she snorted at Shen Qiu, picked up her baggage, and hid behind Xiao Tie.

"You're a bad person!" She shouted to Shen Qiu, "Don't ask so much. ”

"Hey, little girl, it's not okay to be suspicious." Shen Qiu laughed, he turned his head to look at Xiao Wenjing, and said softly, "Daoist Ziwei is schizophrenic... Uh, Soul Scattering, right? ”

"Huh?" Wen Jing's eyes widened, although this thin girl had some girls and men, but when her big eyes were opened, she was like a thin kitten, with the slightest hint of a girl's delicateness.

She glared at Shen Qiu, her fingers trembling, and she said, "How do you know?" ”

"Not only did I know he was a Soul Breaker." Shen Qiu raised his horsewhip to make the horse pulling the cart walk faster, he leaned on the wheel, and said slowly: "I also know that his master's personality is called Huang Wumiao, and he is the head of Ziwei Dao, and the other personality is called Huang Wuyi, who claims to be Taishan Mangfu... Okay, I'm not going to tease you, I've met him twice in Suzhou. Huang Wumiao and Huang Wuving, I have been in contact with them, so I know that this kind of secret, little girl don't worry, it's not that you said it's leaking. Xiao Wenjing put his mind at ease, and there was a smile on his face, so he wrapped around Xiao Tie and asked him what he was from to grow so tall and strong.

This girl really has a grudge against her thinness. The three of them set off from Tai'an, the next morning they arrived at the foot of Mount Tai, this towering Mount Tai, is one of the five mountains, it has been a place of interest since ancient times, early in the morning, there are many people climbing on the stone steps.

And the Jade Emperor Palace is at the top of the Jade Emperor, from the foot of the mountain to the top of the Jade Emperor, there are more than 7,000 stone steps alone, and there is no cable car in this era, you can only climb one by one.

However, Shen Qiu and Xiao Tie are both martial arts masters, with extremely strong endurance and light steps, even if they climb the mountain with a thin girl on their backs, there is no problem at all.

At noon that day, Xiao Tie carried Wen Jing on his back, and Shen Qiu finally arrived in front of the Jade Emperor Palace with the invitation.

"The rivers and lakes are scattered, Shen Qiu, bring the invitation of the Heluo Gang Martial Arts Conference, come to worship the mountain!" Shen Qiu straightened his clothes, took off his hat, and said to the majestic Jade Emperor Palace guards in front of him, and sent a greeting post, and after a while, someone came to welcome them into the Jade Palace.

But here, in addition to the immortal wind Dao bone Chong and Dao Chang, there is also a little boy wearing a Taoist robe.

"Ask Jing, you haven't been here for a long time, come with me, I have made the wooden sword you want, and I have tied the sword spike." Yunji Xiaodao, who had met once in Suzhou, was quite intimate with Wenjing.

The two children ran into the palace hand in hand, but no one stopped them. Chong and Dao Chang, who were holding the dust, watched the two children leave with a kind face, and then said to Shen Qiu and Xiao Tie: "Shen Shaoxia, I haven't seen you for many months, but you are calmer, and you have also made a name for yourself in the rivers and lakes, you are indeed a young hero, and your demeanor is still the same." Come with the old way, the palace master is waiting for you, a little friend of Suzhou. ”
