Chapter 36: Qimen Dunjia
Su Yang walked on the forest path with his skirt, and suddenly heard the sound of branches and leaves, and followed the sound, but saw that it was a crow.
"I was so angry that I saw a crow as soon as I came out. ”
Ruo'er couldn't help frowning when she saw the black bird, you know, it's not a good sign to bump into a crow as soon as you go out.
"There's no need to make a fuss, it's just a crow, let's move on and leave it alone. ”
Su Yang has never believed in ghosts and gods, and led Ruo'er forward.
The two of them walked for an unknown amount of time, but they found that they seemed to have been going around in circles all along, didn't they see the crow, and after walking for a while, they saw the crow again, and they couldn't help but feel cold in their hearts.
Ruo'er was timid, grabbed the corner of Su Yang's clothes with a pair of small hands, and said in a trembling voice: "Niangniang, why don't we go back...... This place is wicked!"
"The emperor only gave us three days, if we can't find these two holy hands within three days, then we will really suffer, don't be afraid, I am here. ”
As she spoke, Su Yang patted Ruo'er's palm and led her forward.
But the two of them walked for a while, and finally returned to the place where they had seen the crow.
Now Su Yang is also a little anxious, it is not a way to go down like this, seeing that it is almost noon, and if he goes around like this, I am afraid that he will not be able to walk into this forest at dusk.
Suddenly, she remembered the Qimen Dunjia she had heard before, the old man said, the so-called Qimen Dunjia, it is not difficult to break, there are always some iconic things, people can find the entrance, look around, the most iconic thing, is the crow.
"Ruo'er, when we just left, we all walked around that crow?"
"Yes, although you say that you are not afraid, in fact, every time you go, you avoid the crows. ”
That's the problem!
Su Yang thought that he didn't care about these cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, but every time he would subconsciously avoid the location of the crows, maybe the reason why they had walked for so long and didn't find their way was because of this.
"Ruo'er, let's walk in the direction of the crow. ”
As he spoke, Su Yang pulled Ruo'er in the direction of the tree where the crow perched.
This time, the two walked for a while, and then they saw a forest hut, the surrounding environment is very quiet, it is now late autumn, here the maple leaves are all over the ground, the lake is like a mirror, the scenery is picturesque.
A boy stood outside the door sweeping the fallen leaves on the steps, and when he saw two people breaking in, he stepped forward and said, "Why do you have a fate to come here?"
"We have come to visit the Holy Hand. ”
The boy was a little puzzled when he heard this, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "Our old gentleman is not a holy hand, if the two of you are here to find him, I will go in and report it, you wait for a while." ”
After saying this, the boy put the broom by the door, pushed the door and entered the house, and walked out of the house with a smile.
"Both, sir, please. ”
Su Yang led Ruo'er to follow the boy in, only to see that the decoration in the room was very elegant and refined, and there was an old man with crane hair and a childish face sitting behind the coffee table.
"Look at the two of you, you don't look like ordinary people, why are you here today?"
"Old man, we are from the palace, and this is my imperial concubine. ”
Without waiting for Su Yang to speak, Ruo'er introduced herself for her.
The old man looked at Su Yang carefully, touched his beard with a smile, and spoke for a long time: "This girl has a strange fate, since you have a fate with me today, the old man will give you some guidance later, now, you can talk about your intentions." ”
The old man's words made Su Yang feel a little surprised, he had never seen this old man before, but his words were all right in an impartial manner, but now is not the time to think about this, she came today for a purpose.
"Old gentleman, I heard that you have a lot of research on chess, recently the palace is going to hold a state banquet to receive the envoys of Mo Lieguo, and you need to fight with one, I don't know if you can invite the old gentleman out of the mountain?"
"I think it's something, I have a Go saint here, but it's not me, it's my apprentice, the one you just saw. ”
As soon as the old man said this, Su Yang and Ruo'er were a little surprised, when they saw the boy just now, they thought it was the old man's scholar, but they didn't expect it to be the old man's apprentice, and the Go saint they were looking for was him!
"Feng Yi, although you two girls go to the palace this time, you can see it for a long time. ”
Feng Yi listened to the old man's words, but his face showed a trace of reluctance: "Master, the disciple is unwilling to leave you." ”
"I lived in seclusion here that day because I saw through the red dust, what about you? You have been in this forest with me since you were five years old, and if you don't look at the outside world, won't you come to this world in vain? ”
Seeing that he was reluctant, the old man knew that he couldn't force it, but he still stroked his beard and persuaded him.
Since he said so, Feng Yi couldn't refuse, so he could only nod his head in agreement.
"Thank you, sir. ”
Seeing that the purpose of coming today had been achieved, Su Yang was overjoyed and bowed to the old man.
"Girl, now you can let this one out, the old man has something to say to you. ”
Ruo'er pointed at herself, and glanced at Su Yang again, she was reluctant to leave, after all, this place is very evil, besides, her mother is a daughter, how can she be alone with this old man?
"You go out first, I'll come later. ”
Su Yang saw Ruo'er's worries in her heart, patted her on the shoulder and signaled that she was okay, and Ruo'er reluctantly followed the wind out of the hut.
At this time, only Su Yang and the old man were left in the room, and the old man's half-squinted eyes finally opened, looked at Su Yang's cheeks carefully, and said with a straight face: "The old man looked at the girl's face, and saw that the girl is not very human, have you ever had an adventure?"
"Yes, that's what the old gentleman said. ”
The old man thought for a while, asked Su Yang to spread out his palms, looked at her palms carefully, pondered for a moment, and said: "Girl, your life is noble, you are the dragon and phoenix among people, but your fate is ill-fated, the old man has something to tell you, which can make the girl's journey a little smoother." ”
"Sir, please. ”
The old man's words were true, which made Su Yang feel that he was not an ordinary person, and he trusted him more and more in his heart.
"Girl, keep an eye on the beauty, the beauty at the feast. ”
"What do you mean?"
"Providence must not be revealed. ”
The old man said that, and Su Yang couldn't continue to ask.
"Today, I got the old gentleman's point, thank you in the next place, and if the old gentleman has any trust in the future, I will do my best in the future. ”
"There is no need to come, and soon, the old man will ask the girl to do something. ”
The old man said, poured a cup of tea for Su Yang, and handed over the jasper cup.
"After drinking this tea, the girl will leave, and she will soon know what it is. ”
