Chapter 005: Immortal Mountain
Ran Shaotang's heart was surging.
If she stayed in this place for a few years, she would have gone crazy. She's not here to be a farmer. However, until the goal is achieved, it is still necessary to endure. She understands these truths.
Even if you are reluctant, when you enter the territory of the Medicine King Sect, it is most important to find out the details of the road first. Let's start with people.
Xie Yingfeng's words were pondered over and over again, and suddenly felt that something was wrong.
The master has seven apprentices, the master is Xie Yingfeng's master uncle, the mother is fifth, Xie Yingfeng's master Cheng Yi is the second uncle, according to him, the second uncle Cheng Yi and the master did not arrange labor.
"The third uncle, the fourth uncle, the sixth uncle, and the seventh uncle all have work to do, so what are your masters and my masters doing?"
Xie Yingjian looked left and right mysteriously, lowered his voice, and told the little junior brother very cautiously: "The master has a very strange temper. Sometimes I want to do everything, and sometimes I don't want to do anything. As for whether you went and were assigned to farm or go down to the river to fish, it's really not clear. So, you have to be good at yourself. ”
Xie Yingfeng patted Shaotang's shoulder sympathetically, his face full of pity.
"As for what my master does, it's a secret." He looked arrogant.
Ran Shaotang closed his eyes and rolled his eyes at him. Shit Secrets!
In her this never secretly survived for three days.
While the two were muttering happily, the carriage had stopped halfway up the mountain.
Cheng Yi shouted outside for the two to get out of the car.
Shaotang jumped out of the car and was shocked by the beautiful scenery in front of him.
The place where the carriage stopped was a pond, which was full of budding lotus flowers, lotus leaves and fields, slim and elegant. It is estimated that it will be able to bloom for the first time in half a month, and the lotus will bloom and stalk.
It was not the first time she had seen a lotus pond, but it was indeed surprising that a pond had been carved out halfway up the mountainside. It's a lot of work.
However, it was the next accident that made her jaw drop.
After following Uncle Shi and facing the mountain, he walked for half a cup of tea, and suddenly looked up and saw the towering peaks of the mountains, and the steps of a mountain grew savagely, leading to the mist-shrouded place, and it seemed that if he climbed to the top, he could reach the sky.
The three of them stopped in front of the steps, and Cheng Yi secretly took a deep breath, wanting to save some strength to conquer the steps again.
Shaotang turned his head to look at Xie Yingjian, this senior brother's face was full of love that he didn't dare to show. She had a faint sense of happiness in her heart.
Xie Yingfeng lowered his head and sighed: "Three thousand six hundred and seventy-nine steps, count them slowly." When he had counted them, he looked up and saw the door of the temple. ”
Shaotang repeated the astonishing number in his heart, and secretly slandered himself: Master Ancestor is going to cultivate immortals?
When she climbed to the nine hundred and ninety-ninth level, she raised her hand and tugged on Cheng Yi's sleeve: "Uncle Shi, why, why does Shizu live in such a high place?" "If you come every day to say hello in the morning and evening, you won't be tired to death.
Cheng Yi has been wandering outside for more than a month, and most of his body inertia for climbing the steps in the past has been lost, and he is already out of breath.
He bent over his knees and held his knees for a long time before he could steady his breath and stand up straight.
"Only, for, clear, quiet---。" After Cheng Yi finished speaking, he looked up at the destination that was still out of reach, and set off again in one go.
Shaotang couldn't believe it: "Quiet? "Because of this, you want to live in heaven? In fact, adding a clause to the rules of the sect "Do not disturb the sect master if you have nothing to do" can solve the problem. Does corporal punishment have to be done?
The three of them rested twice more in the middle of the way, and finally saw the temple gate towering on the steps.
In front of the temple stood two children. He was dozing off against the pillars.
Hearing someone gasping for breath, he immediately opened his eyes.
Seeing that the person who came was Cheng Yi, his nervous expression was immediately replaced by a smile.
"Second uncle, why did you come up? What's the matter? The two children ran down two steps briskly to greet Cheng B, with a warm and affectionate attitude. His eyes secretly glanced at Ran Shaotang. Guess who he is.
Cheng Yi didn't speak, his face was flushed. He can't speak, and when he does, it reveals that he can't do it, and he's old. This panting is estimated to be heard by the masters in the hall.
The two children couldn't get an answer, and asked Xie Yingjian beside Cheng Yi: "Senior Brother Xie?" ”
Xie Yingfeng didn't speak, and his face turned even redder. The chest rises and falls.
The two children helplessly set their eyes on Ran Shaotang.
This person's face is very raw, and he came up with Uncle Cheng, so he should be a new junior brother when he counts the days, right? looks very delicate and lovely, but it's a pity that there is a birthmark on the face.
The two children glanced at each other and saluted respectfully: "This is Senior Brother Ran, right?" ”
Shaotang looked at the master and apprentice who wanted to save face, nodded, and slowly adjusted his breath.
How to say that she is also a martial arts student, although this climb tests people's physical strength. But fortunately, she had already started to learn the Inner Gong Mind Method, and her breathing soon became normal.
She replied with a similar gift: "The two senior brothers, it is Ran Shaotang below, who has just arrived in the sect. Uncle Shi came to take me to meet my ancestor and his old man. ”
The two children looked at each other again and replied in unison, "The ancestor is not here." ”
"Then I'll wait for his old man to come back." She habitually took out two purses filled with broken silver, and one of the skilled ones stuffed one.
As the saying goes, Hades is easy to see, but imps are difficult.
The Medicine King Sect is no exception.
She understands, she understands.
The first time the two children met this kind of lord who came up and forced himself to stuff silver without saying a word, they were a little dazed for a while.
Xie Yingfeng understood their feelings very well, and the first time he saw this junior brother, he was also stuffed with things. In addition to silver, there are also Kyoto sweets and snacks full of hearts.
I don't know where he inquired about his appetite.
Cheng Yi was also stuffed with a greeting gift by him, and if he didn't accept it, he would be stalked.
In order to save time, he ordered the two little children: "Receive." ”
Since Uncle Shi has an order, they are welcome. The two children happily pressed the purse in their arms, and explained to the three of them with their eyebrows fluttering.
"The ancestor went out to visit friends, and the return date is uncertain."
"What? Master is out? Why didn't anyone tell me? Cheng Yi grabbed the arm of one of the children and shook it at others, and the little boy who shook turned pale, and almost vomited out his lunch, breakfast, and last night's meal.
Another boy hurriedly cleared the siege: "Uncle Shi, calm down." ”
How can Cheng Yi be calm?
After climbing 3,679 steps, he was tired and vomited blood. Just to see the master.
Who knew that the master was not there.
Why didn't anyone tell him?
Why don't you put up a sign at the foot of the mountain and remind him that "the suzerain is not here, please do not visit?"
Was it easy for him to climb up?
He'll have to climb down later.
Can he be calm?
It's hard work that can be avoided.
"You two rabbit cubs, the sect master is not here, what are you doing here? Won't you be guarding the lotus platform? Cheng Yi poured his anger out on the two little boys, and although he let go of his hand, he roared loudly.
Xie Yingfeng didn't have the strength to speak, so he simply sat on the steps and watched the master go crazy.
In fact, he wanted to swing his fist and shout: Master, beat the girl.
The little boy who was about to be stunned pityfully defended himself: "It was the ancestor who asked us to wait here, saying that we had something to leave for the second uncle." ”
The actual situation is that the ancestor did have something to leave to Cheng Yi, but he didn't let them wait here.
These two children didn't want to go down the mountain to work, so they pretended to pass on the holy decree and hid in the mountain to be lazy.
Another boy was worried that Cheng Yi would not believe it, and added very aggrievedly: "The people in the whole mountain know that the master is out, and no one has told you the news along the way, uncle?" ”
Hi! The boy still asked himself?
Cheng Yi glared at him angrily, and sat on the steps in a posture with his apprentice.
He was in a hurry to see the master, and he didn't stop all the way, where did the news come from?
Seems to blame himself?
"Tell me what the sect master left for me?" Cheng Yi didn't want to be laughed at by the four children in front of him, so he wittily changed the topic.
The little boy who was shaken immediately said the sect master's explanation word for word and stepped aside.
After hearing this, Shaotang couldn't help but feel happy in his heart.
It turned out that the ancestor specially ordered to leave a message for himself.
It must have been my mother who told her secret to her ancestor. Otherwise, how can there be such treatment.
"Master wants Ran Shaotang to live alone in a small courtyard?" Cheng Yi was even more angry after hearing this.
What is this called?
"The sect has rules, disciples can't live alone, they have to live together. Shaotang had better not have to break this rule. "It is easy to be isolated by fellow disciples and brothers when engaging in specialization. Himself this is for his good.
Xie Yingfeng also felt that it was impossible for the master to make such a mistake, so he stood up and grabbed the collar of the little boy closest to him, gasped and asked, "Do you want to be beaten?" ”
