2. Go down the hill and visit the door. Songshan faction

Heng Mountain, the water curtain hole under the purple cover peak, the water of the mountain stream gathers here, more than 20 zhang waterfall goes straight down from it, the silver light is dazzling, and the cold air is pressing. There is a hexagonal pavilion in its lower left, the name is called the Snow Wave Pavilion, it is named after the water curtain waterfall color such as snow, the sound is like a torrent.

There are a few people sitting in the pavilion, all of them are wearing blue robes, heroic and extraordinary, but the leader is an old man with a rickety face and vicissitudes of life, who is pointing around, telling the legend of Zhuling Cave.

In the past few days, the head of the sect has taken all the disciples to Shoushan, and he has seen every scenery of Hengshan Mountain, leaving footprints on every dangerous peak, which seems to be holding a farewell ceremony. This kind of behavior was unceremoniously classified as "an old lover of the family" by his uncle Hu Yuanlin, and he didn't do it together at all, but ran alone to Shichuan Mountain, which is not far away, and sent some cold belongings to Mr. Chuanshan.

Up to now, Liu Meng still has nearly 10,000 taels of silver tickets on his body, half of which was handed over to the second senior brother Zhuang Buzhong to take care of everyone's food and clothing, and the other half was given to Master Xiang Shoushan, so as to prepare some things to take out his hand for use at the end of the Taishan Wuyue Sword Sect gathering. Liu Meng himself only kept three or four hundred taels of silver tickets, which was enough to eat and drink.

After that night's generous statement, Xiang Shoushan was finally moved by Hu Yuanlin, and promised to lead his disciples down the mountain to attend the Taishan gathering.

Although it was not exactly as everyone expected, it was thrown into the boiling rivers and lakes; But for the first time, everyone walked down the mountain and showed the Hengshan faction sign that had been hidden to the people of the world, which was enough for several disciples to be intoxicated and excited.

Previously, Liu Meng wanted to say that he wanted to move his master to do Wu Sangui's vote, but he couldn't say it, and he didn't have a deadline to complete the task anyway, and he wouldn't delay anything if he spent more time with everyone like relatives in this scene world, so why should he be impatient to collect scriptures?

Therefore, in the past few days, although I have accompanied Master to walk around Heng Mountain.

What: This ginkgo tree was planted by Zen Master Hui Si and has been around for more than 1,000 years; This magnolia was planted together with the Tibetan scripture hall, and it is still blooming in spring and fragrant all over the mountain. the Huang Tingguan of the Jin Dynasty's female sacrifice wine master Wei master's practice; "The fallen rocks fall to the waist of the peak, and the nether smoke and clouds are far away" is the most dangerous in Hengshan - Huixian Bridge. In the end, there is more "silent hanging tin", knowing that the lamp is on fire and the rice is cooked for more than a few hours.

………………

Downhill, downhill, downhill.

With sufficient money support, it only takes a dozen days to complete all the preparations, new clothes and shoes, various sects of travel etiquette, standing medicine for injuries and so on. Another hundred taels of silver were sent to the abbot of Fangguang Temple, and he was entrusted to send Xiao Shami to the top of Zhurong Peak to clean.

This is said to be auspicious in the Yellow Calendar, Hengshan sent eight people of all ages to worship the ancestral tablet, from the Nanyue Temple to pay homage to the incense, set off to Mount Tai, Shandong, to go to the five mountains to get together.

The group is all brand new blue robes, Xiang Shoushan is old and afraid of the cold, and there is a sable jacket outside, and his junior brother Hu Yuanlin sits in the carriage from time to time to comment on the scenery along the way, and Hu Yuanlin, who has a white face and black beard, is like a housekeeper who works all year round.

Each of the six disciples had a healthy horse, wearing a hat and carrying a long sword, and they were surrounded by two carriages, which was very imposing, attracting countless travelers along the way to look and guess, all thinking that it was the patrol jurisdiction of which prince and minister.

Of course, it is inevitable that there will be righteous bandits who look at the heart to block the way, at this time, it is often the senior brother who is not afraid to come forward, report his identity and show his name, if the other party is not interested in retreating, it is an opportunity for a few disciples who have not had actual combat to practice. Xiang Shoushan has repeatedly demanded that if there are no bad deeds, it is enough to injure the uniform, and never hurt people's lives, saying that there are enough killings in this land.

There are still two months before the end of the year, and the journey is not in a hurry, after discussing with Shoushan and Hu Yuanlin, anyway, it has only been down the mountain once in nearly 20 years, and some sects with good friendships should also visit by the way. So after everyone crossed the river from Wuchang, they went all the way to the north, and wanted to go to the Songshan faction to see, if it was convenient, so that they could go to Mount Tai with them.

As for the Huashan faction, it was also nearby, but the head Feng Nandi had already brought people back to Baoding, and he couldn't find anyone when he went, so he had to wait for the Taishan Conference to reunite.

Originally, according to the meaning of Xiang Shoushan, he also wanted to go to Leshan, Sichuan to visit the oldest and most respected Tiejianmen Musang Dao Chang on the rivers and lakes today. It's a pity that just after Wuchang, I heard the rumors of the people in the rivers and lakes in the inn, saying that Mu Sang Dao Chang had passed away after his ninetieth birthday. made both of them sigh.

Fast horses travel very fast. Soon it was Dengfeng.

Speaking of Dengfeng, it is very famous in the rivers and lakes, and everyone's first impression is nothing more than the location of the thousand-year-old Shaolin Temple, as for the Songshan faction, it was a long time, right? It is now forgotten by most people, not to mention the Zhongyue Temple, where it is located.

According to common sense, the Shaolin faction, as the big faction in charge of the rivers and lakes, the head of Hengshan arrived in Dengfeng, so he had to come to the door to greet him. However, due to the fact that it took the policy of self-protection after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, everyone looked down on it a little, and the current power was the air, since the Shaomuro Mountain passed down, and went straight to the Zhongyue Temple at the foot of the Taimur Mountain.

The current head of the Songshan faction is called Ding Yunzhi, and it is rumored that he is the descendant of Ding Mian, the Tota hand back then. Short and sturdy, he is also a model of a low-key person, and he is familiar with Xiang Shoushan at first sight, and the two heads have a long talk, completely ignoring others.

Zhongyue Temple was set on fire by the Qing soldiers at the end of the Ming Dynasty once, and the current scale is just newly built, but for more than ten years, the conditions are stronger than the Hengshan faction I don't know how many times.

But one thing is that the Songshan faction is also in decline, except for the head Ding Yun, there are only two elders, Meng Yunqing and Wei Yunfeng, and there are only more than ten disciples below, and there are only four people who can walk the rivers and lakes alone.

The disciples of the two factions saw that the Wuyue Sword Sect, which was famous in the past, was now all in this miserable appearance, and their excitement had long since disappeared, and they all felt compassion in their hearts, and even the arrangements such as exchanges and exchanges that were often made hastily dealt with, without any desire to win and fight for strength.

Such discouragement, of course, the elders of the two factions did not like it. Hu Yuanlin of the Hengshan faction is just that, he has always been indifferent, and he is mostly conniving at his disciples like children; Elder Wei Yunfeng, who was at home from the Songshan faction, was much more severe, and in the afternoon, he called everyone to the river not far in front of the temple gate, and ordered each of them to stand in two four-elephant sword formations, and to train the method of arranging the positive and negative four-elephant formations.

They are also disciples of the Wuyue Sword Sect, and Liu Meng and other Hengshan disciples must also obey the orders of the elders of each faction. Of the six disciples of the Hengshan faction, except for the thirteen styles of the old five marquis, who were unhappy and could not be out of the school, the other five all passed the teacher assessment. But the third pang was silent and long-winded, and he was being arranged by the master to go to the main hall to learn the meditation mantra with the Taoist master, and it was not good to participate in the training this time.

At that moment, the boss He Buwei took Liu Meng to occupy the two positions of Li and Qian, and the second Zhuang Buzhong and the fourth Lu Buclumsy occupied the defensive positions of Dui and Kun, put on an anti-four-elephant array, and listened to the teachings of Elder Wei of the Songshan faction.
