Chapter Seventy-Three: Into the Mountain
This quaint peachwood sword was obtained by me and the Taoist priest when I went to Lin Qiaoer's house, at that time, because of the death of Lin's mother, Lin Qiaoer's family found a scammer with a mustache to do things, and the Taoist priest beat people in the dark, and forcibly bought all the belongings of the eight-character beard.
I've heard the Taoist priest boast that the shitty trickster might have found the cave of some fallen Taoist master and obtained these treasures, and this three-tailed peachwood sword with a fish-handled handle is the most precious of all the things that the shit-hugged liar has gotten.
Its sword body is made of more than 100 years of peach wood core that is longer than the peak, because the tree body is longer than the top of the unobstructed peak, swallowing the yang fire and day essence during the day, absorbing the yin-water moon flower at night, after more than 100 years of growth, either turn into a spirit, or become a treasure of heaven and earth, and its cherishing degree is even more than a hundred years of lightning strike wood.
Although the Taoist priest does not know this person, he can also see one or two through the traces of the sword body.
This sword is three feet three inches long, the sword body is slender, densely covered with three kinds of peculiar runes, the whole is red black, the hilt is delicately carved, and the tail end is three fish tails hugging each other, so the Taoist priest called the three-tailed fish-handled mahogany sword.
According to the Taoist priest's boast, this sword exerts the special power of its material to the extreme, and can stimulate the two supreme strength of heaven and earth, yang, fire, yin, and water, and he even suspects that this sword also contains a third power, but he has not yet studied the way to excite it.
Before seeing my Apocalypse Sword, the three-tailed fish-handled peachwood sword was blown into the sky by the Taoist priest, and the Apocalypse is a Daomen artifact, and the Taoist priest's sick peachwood sword is only inferior to the Apocalypse, which shows its preciousness.
However, it is a pity that since the Taoist priest got this sword, I have not seen him use it, and naturally I can't see the true power of this sick peach wood sword, but this time into the mountain, there are many dangers, maybe I can be lucky enough to see this sword.
Thinking about it, I felt that it was wrong, so I hurriedly snorted twice, and secretly scolded myself for the crow's mouth, as long as I can go into the mountain safely to find the third uncle and my father, and then come out safely, I would rather never see the Taoist priest use the three-tailed fish-handled mahogany sword for the rest of my life.
After about two hours, when everything was ready to stop, we gathered at the pontoon bridge in the water gourd, ready to go.
To my surprise, the boat that Xiuling rented turned out to be a semi-automatic fishing boat with an engine, and a small cabin on it to shelter from the wind and rain.
This is good news for us, because of the heavy rain a few days ago, the water level of Yinyugou at this time has risen very high, and the water flow is also very turbulent.
Now that we have this boat, everything is not a problem, it's just that we don't know how to sail a boat, so what can we do?
As if seeing our difficulties, a sly smile appeared on Xiu Ling's delicate face, and said to us: "I know that you can't drive, so let's do it, as your tour guide, I also have to be responsible for your safety, I will go with you, and I will drive the boat, how about it?" ”
After Xiu Ling finished speaking, she seemed to feel that she had eaten us, and looked at us with a wink.
Looking at the little girl's proud appearance, I felt helpless and a little embarrassed, but I really didn't know how to deal with it, so I had to look at the doctor with a wry smile.
What we didn't expect was that the doctor refused her without the slightest hesitation: "No, you can't go!" ”
Xiuling suddenly became anxious, her face was both aggrieved and stubborn, she looked at the doctor, and asked without giving up: "Why, why can't I go?" I'm your guide, and I know better than you here, so why don't you let me go? ”
The doctor glanced at Xiu Ling, who was full of stubbornness, and a trace of gloom flashed in his expression, and it was fleeting, and he quickly returned to his usual indifference, and said, "It's too dangerous, and this matter has nothing to do with you, so you can't go." ”
In the face of the doctor's resoluteness, Xiu Ling did not back down at all, and retorted: "Who said that this matter has nothing to do with me? First, I am your tour guide, and I am responsible for your safety. Second, the place you go to is also the place where Aunt Su Jin is going, Aunt Su Jin is the same as my mother, I have the right to know. ”
Including the doctor, all of us were stunned, yes, with the relationship between Xiuling and Su Jin, Xiuling is not only related to this matter, but also the relationship is not shallow, and the doctor uses this reason to reject her, it really doesn't work.
Xiu Ling's stubbornness made the doctor feel helpless, he sighed, and continued to say to Xiu Ling: "You went, what should your father do?" He is the only one left with you, if something happens to you, how will you let him continue the rest of his life in the future? ”
These words hit Xiuling's heart, she was stunned, then lowered her head and said in an inaudible voice: "What about me, without you, how can I continue to live the rest of my life?" ”
"What?" The doctor was some distance away from Xiuling, so he didn't hear this clearly, but I was next to Xiuling, and I heard it word for word. I sighed in my heart, it seems that in the past ten days of getting along, Xiu Ling has escalated to the love at first sight to Xu Ding's life, but unfortunately, the doctor doesn't seem to be aware of this love.
Just as I was about to say something and tell the doctor to stop insisting, Xiu Ling raised her head and smiled calmly:
"It's nothing, Abba, I've already left him a letter, and he will see it when he comes back, I'm just going into the mountains with you, and I'm going to come back with you in the end."
The doctor wanted to continue to insist, but at this time, Sister Bailing stood up, grabbed Xiuling's hand, and shook her head at the doctor: "Let her go, you can stop people, but your heart can't stop you." ”
After speaking, without waiting for the doctor's reaction, Sister Bailing pulled Xiuling and Lin Qiao'er to step on the boat first, and the Taoist priest and I shook our heads, so we could only pat the doctor and start moving things to the boat.
Soon, everything was loaded onto the ship, and so were we, and with the clattering of the engines, the boat started.
The rudder was in a partition space in front of the cabin, which was the position of the bow of the ship, and Sister Bailing pulled Lin Qiaoer into the cabin and talked to Xiu Ling, who was driving the boat in front, while the three of us stayed outside the cabin.
It's not because the cabin can't be squeezed, but because the doctor is in a bad mood at this time, and besides, the topics between girls and our lords are always different.
We leaned against the side of the ship, watching the scenery around us quickly disappear, the scorching sun after the rain hung overhead, the water was filled with a thin layer of mist, accompanied by the sound of the water rushing outside the ship and the roar of the engine from the bow of the ship, which made our mood slowly ease.
