Chapter 409: Back to the Mountain
At the gate of Hangzhou, Mu Xiaojiu, Hu Xiaoxian, Wu Zhen, Liu Xiqing, Mu Duan and Li Xiaobai each led their horses, opposite Mu Yu.
"Childe, are you going to leave now?" Mu Yu said reluctantly.
Mu Xiaojiu nodded and said, "Mu Yu, you really don't want to go with us?" ”
Mu Yu hesitated for a moment, but finally shook his head, "Forget it, I won't go, the storefront here also needs someone to take care of it." Now that the store is on track, it's time to start further expanding the intelligence system. At this critical juncture, I'd better stay here. ”
Mu Xiaojiu nodded slightly, "Okay, since that's the case, then Jiangnan will ask you." ”
"Don't worry, Childe." Mu Yu saluted Mu Xiaojiu.
"Alright, let's go." Mu Xiaojiu took the reins of the horse, turned the direction around, and then turned over on the horse. Seeing this, Mu Xuan, Wuzhen and others also followed them one by one on the horses.
Mu Yu stood at the gate of the city, watching Mu Xiaojiu and the others leave from afar. It wasn't until Mu Xiaojiu and the others slowly disappeared from her sight that she slowly turned around and returned to the city.
……
A few days later, on Wudang Mountain.
A handsome young man with a bun on his head walked forward step by step on the path with two buckets of water. On such a cold day, the young man was only wearing a coarse cloth robe, and the sleeves of his arms were rolled up, revealing his two strong and powerful arms.
At first glance, this young man is probably just a farmer in Wudang Mountain. This kind of thing is very common in the vicinity of Wudang Mountain, and some peasant boys often tie their hair in imitation of the Taoist priests on the mountain.
But if you look closely, you will find that the two buckets of water that the young man was carrying were so full that they were about to overflow. And this mountain road is biased, potholes, and rugged, if it were an ordinary person, these two buckets of water would have been sprinkled clean.
But in the hands of this young man, these two buckets of water were like two good babies, and he carried them on his shoulders, not daring to make the slightest move. Moreover, on such a potholed and rugged mountain road, the young man walked on it as if he were walking on flat ground, and even the distance he walked out of each step was exactly the same, without the slightest deviation.
It can be seen that this young man's martial arts are definitely not low.
Moreover, although this young man was dressed like an ordinary peasant and did not wear a Taoist robe, his residence was very close to Song Yuanqiao, Zhang Songxi, Yu Daiyan and others. This is enough to prove that the identity of this young man is by no means simple.
That's right, this young man carrying water is the Wudang Zhang Wuxia Zhang Cuishan who learned the Jiuyang Divine Skill and returned to Wudang Mountain, and Zhang Wuji, the son of Yin Susu of the Heavenly Eagle Sect.
"Mowgli! Get up so early to fetch water! Yu Daiyan, who was just about to go out to take his disciples for today's morning class, couldn't help but smile when he saw Zhang Wuji's figure.
When Zhang Wuji heard the voice, he turned his head to look at Yu Daiyan, then stopped, nodded, and responded with a smile: "Yes, Third Master, are you going to teach the morning class?" ”
Yu Daiyan walked up to Zhang Wuji and patted him on the shoulder, "Yes, Wuji, after picking up water later, do you want to go over to my side to have a look?" ”
"Okay, Uncle Sanshi." Zhang Wuji's eyes lit up, "Then I'll go over after picking up the water in a while." ”
Yu Daiyan smiled heartily, didn't say anything more, and walked directly towards the martial arts platform.
After Yu Daiyan left, Zhang Wuji took another step and walked in the direction of the row of courtyards above. At the same time, in his heart, Zhang Wuji also muttered that this should be the last trip.
When he got up this morning, he found that there was no water in the water tank at the entrance of the courtyard of the master uncle, the second master uncle, and the seventh uncle. Therefore, he took a flat pole and a bucket and ran back and forth on Wudang Mountain six times. In fact, he still has more than half of the water in the water tank in his yard.
After pouring the two buckets of water into the water tank at the entrance of Mo Shenggu's courtyard, Zhang Wuji slowly exhaled a breath, then picked up the flat pole and the bucket, and prepared to put them back in his yard. Who knew that at this time, Yu Lianzhou suddenly walked out of the courtyard.
"Second Uncle." Zhang Wuji called softly.
Yu Lianzhou glanced at Zhang Wuji, who was standing at the gate of Moshenggu Courtyard, still holding a flat pole and a bucket in his hand, and then looked at the refilled water tank at the entrance of his courtyard, a touch of appreciation flashed in his eyes, and nodded lightly at Zhang Wuji.
"It seems that the character of this child is like the fifth brother, steady and kind. In contrast, Qingshu is ......" Yu Lianzhou thought to herself. Don't look at him as taciturn on weekdays, but in his heart, he understands it.
At the same time, under Wudang Mountain.
"This is the territory of the Wudang faction, who is coming, and I hope to report the identity." At the gate of Wudang Mountain, a group of disciples guarding the mountain came forward and said very peacefully.
Mu Xiaojiu looked at Wu Zhen, Wu Zhen understood, took a few steps forward, and said: "I am named Wu Zhen, and I am a disciple of Zhang Sixia of the Wudang Sect, I don't know if any of you senior brothers know me?" ”
Several mountain guarding disciples looked at each other, and then the leading disciple shook his head slightly, "I'm sorry, there are no Fourth Senior Uncles among us, if you don't mind, please wait a minute, we will call someone to go up and report." In addition, the people in the back ......"
At this time, Mu Xiaojiu stepped forward in a timely manner, hugged his fists and said, "I am Mu Xiaojiu under the Peach Blossom Island Gate, and I am considered to have brought someone to visit me." ”
As soon as the three words "Mu Xiaojiu" came out, the disciples guarding the mountain were suddenly startled, and after carefully looking at Mu Xiaojiu, the leading disciple said a little respectfully: "It turned out to be Mu Gongzi in person, and I asked Mu Gongzi to stay for a while." ”
Mu Xiaojiu has nothing to do with this, after all, this is the rule of Wudang Mountain.
After a while, Song Yuanqiao and Zhang Songxi walked down the mountain road. When they were still some distance away from the mountain gate, the two saw Mu Xiaojiu, Wuzhen and others. Therefore, Song Yuanqiao smiled directly and said, "Mu Gongzi, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Mu Xiaojiu arched his hand at Song Yuanqiao and Zhang Songxi, and said with the same smile: "Song Daxia, Zhang Sixia, it's been a long time. ”
"Look! It's the master uncle and the fourth master! ”
"I've seen the master uncle, the fourth master!" When the disciples guarding the mountain at the mountain gate saw the two of them, they immediately knelt down on one knee and saluted the two. Wu Zhen also took a few steps up the mountain road, and then knelt down directly, "Master, master, Wu Zhen is back." ”
As soon as Zhang Songxi saw Wuzhen, he couldn't care much, so he rushed down directly, and then helped Wuzhen up from the ground, and said with a smile on his face: "Good, good, good!" It's good to be back, it's good to be back! ”
"You are all disciples of the Sixth Brother." Song Yuanqiao looked at those disciples guarding the mountain and said softly: "Get up quickly, I will take these people up the mountain by myself." ”
After the mountain guarding disciples got the order, they obeyed everything, and after getting up, they did not continue to stop Mu Xiaojiu and the others, but returned to both sides of the mountain gate.
Seeing this, Mu Xiaojiu did not hesitate, and walked directly towards the mountain gate with Hu Xiaoxian and a few people.
"Mu Gongzi, I haven't seen you for so long, I don't know why I suddenly thought of coming to our Wudang Mountain?" Song Yuanqiao walked towards the mountain with Mu Xiaojiu and the others, and asked, "If the third brother sees you, a benefactor, coming, he will be very happy." ”
Although when Mu Xiaojiu sent black jade intermittent cream to treat Yu Daiyan's legs, he was also paid. But in fact, everyone in the Wudang faction who knew about this matter understood that compared to the miraculous medicine of black jade intermittent ointment, the reward that Mu Xiaojiu asked for was not worth mentioning.
At least that's in their minds.
Because of this, others don't say it, at least in the hearts of the Wudang Seven Heroes and Zhang Sanfeng, Mu Xiaojiu can be regarded as Yu Daiyan's benefactor.
"Song Daxia is polite." Mu Xiaojiu smiled humbly, "This time, it's actually not a big deal, just come and visit; If anything else, I'll talk about it later. ”
Song Yuanqiao and Zhang Songxi froze for a moment when they heard this, and after glancing at each other, they looked at Mu Xiaojiu at the same time. saw Mu Xiaojiu shook his head slightly, and then said, "I don't know how Yu Sanxia is recovering now?" ”
Song Yuanqiao and Zhang Songxi immediately understood that Mu Xiaojiu was only afraid that he would say this in private, so he would divert the topic. Therefore, Song Yuanqiao smiled and said, "With Lao Mu Gongzi's trouble, the third brother has recovered very well, and now his martial arts can be regarded as being rebuilt." ”
"That's fine. By the way, I heard that Zhang Zhenren hasn't been back to Wudang Mountain for a long time? Mu Xiaojiu responded, and then suddenly remembered this, and couldn't help but ask again, "I don't know if the two of you have any news about Zhang Zhenren?" ”
As soon as they talked about this, Song Yuanqiao and Zhang Songxi suddenly put the incident that Mu Xiaojiu said before behind them, and said with a little bitterness: "Master, his old man has indeed not come back for a long time, as for the news, alas...... I haven't heard from you. ”
Mu Xiaojiu saw the worry in the eyes of the two, so he persuaded: "You don't have to worry too much. Zhang Zhenren, an old man, is a pedantic and a man, and he will definitely be fine. There has been no news for so long, and it is estimated that it was only delayed by something. ”
Chatting and chatting, everyone had already arrived at the gate of Song Yuanqiao's courtyard.
"Let's go, let's go in and talk." Song Yuanqiao gave Zhang Songxi and Mu Xiaojiu a look, and then walked towards the courtyard first, followed by Zhang Songxi.
Mu Xiaojiu glanced at Wu Zhen, then smiled at him with relief, signaled him not to worry too much, and then walked in.
"Mu Gongzi, what's the matter, this will be said. Except for the seven of us senior brothers and sisters, no one else will come here on weekdays. As soon as he entered the house, Song Yuanqiao frowned and asked Mu Xiaojiu.
Mu Xiaojiu paused, then flashed to the side, revealing the figure of Wuzhen behind him, "It's not appropriate for me to say this matter, let's let Wuzhen tell you in person." ”
Wu Zhen took a deep breath, and he told this matter personally, which was also something he had made with Mu Xiaojiu before. Therefore, at this moment, although he was nervous, he was ready in his heart.
But after hesitating again and again, he still couldn't say it directly, but asked first, "Uncle Master, Master, apart from me and Brother Mu, do you know the other people here?" ”
Zhang Songxi looked at Wuzhen's appearance, and a pair of eyebrows couldn't help but twist into one place, "Wuzhen, what the hell are you doing?" Mu Duan is Mu Gongzi's old servant, we all know this; The remaining three, we have never met, so it is naturally impossible to know each other. ”
At this time, Song Yuanqiao said: "I heard that Mu Gongzi has a wife who has not passed through the door, but she is a disciple of the Yin Sect, and these two girls have a good aura...... It's weird, presumably one of them is Mu Gongzi's wife who has not passed through the door, and the other should be the same door. As for the rest of the boy, I really don't know. ”
Wu Zhen pursed his lips and swallowed lightly, "Master Uncle is really as wise as a torch, that's right, the one wearing a black dress is Brother Mu's wife who has not passed through the door, the fox fairy fox girl." And that young man is Brother Mu's disciple, that is, the third-generation disciple of Peach Blossom Island, Li Xiaobai. It's just that the other woman is not the same ...... of the fox girl."
"Huh? What the hell are you going to say? Don't be a mother-in-law, say it happily. Zhang Songxi listened to Wuzhen's voice becoming smaller and smaller, and couldn't help but urge.
But in fact, looking at Wu Zhen's eyes looking at the woman, and then looking at Wu Zhen's stumbling appearance, Zhang Songxi actually had a faint guess in his heart. Not only him, but Song Yuanqiao had already seen some clues.
Wuzhen gritted his teeth, suddenly "poofed", knelt down on his knees, and then said loudly: "Another girl is named Liu Xiqing, who is a disciple...... It's a disciple's sweetheart! ”
Zhang Songxi and Song Yuanqiao were not too surprised because they had already guessed it. It's just that when they heard Wuzhen say this, the two of them still sighed together.
"Silly boy, you're being haunted like this because of this?" Zhang Songxi shook his head and said.
Wuzhen hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Sister Liu...... Sister Liu, she ...... after all."
"Martial arts come from the wrong way, and the breath is not pure? I'm afraid it's an evil person? Song Yuanqiao continued with Wu Zhen's words, "Wu Zhen, let me ask you, have you ever seen this Liu girl careless of human life?" ”
Wu Zhen was stunned for a moment, and then said in a loud voice: "This is naturally no, Sister Liu has a good mind and has never made a move to disregard people's lives." ”
"So, has this Liu girl ever done anything evil?" Song Yuanqiao asked again.
Wuzhen shook his head, "No, although Sister Liu likes to tease her disciples, she has never done evil." In addition to drinking and eating meat, Sister Liu's every move on weekdays is not different from her disciples. ”
"Isn't that all there is to it?" Song Yuanqiao and Zhang Songxi looked at each other and smiled, "Evil and righteous ways, we don't take it so seriously for a long time." What is heresy? What is the right path? The so-called good and evil are not seen as martial arts, but people's hearts. ”
