Chapter 128: Two Barriers
When the little Taoist priest saw the guests coming to the mountain gate, there was no surprise on his face, and he walked up to Hualan and a few people to make a mockery and asked, "How many people have come, but do you want to see the master of the Daoist Changxu?" ”
"Exactly."
Hua Lan stepped forward and saluted, stretched out her hand and handed over the official document of the Imperial Approval of the Tai Hospital.
The little Taoist priest took the post, opened it and looked at it, tilted his head slightly, glanced at the little Taoist priest who was still asleep in the pavilion, and shouted to him: "Mingyue? ”
His voice was crisp and loud, reaching the ears of Mingyue in the small pavilion, making Mingyue in the dream suddenly open his eyes.
His first reaction was "It's broken, let the senior brother find out that he's lazy", and he hurriedly ran over.
He ran to the little Taoist priest, rubbing his sleepy eyes, and lazily explained: "Senior brother, the master asked me to chop firewood for a night last night, and I didn't close my eyes, so I ........"
As soon as his words came out, he found that the four Hua Lan people standing in front of the senior brother hurriedly made a mockery to the four Hua Lan people, looked at the senior brother in a low voice, and muttered: "Oh, it's a guest." ”
"Why don't you go and inform Master?"
The little Taoist priest scolded lightly and handed the official post to Mingyue.
Mingyue took it, and hurriedly ran to the mountain gate, and when he entered the mountain gate, the little Taoist priest smiled at Hua Lan and said, "Son, please?" ”
As he spoke, he led the way in front and led the four of Hua Lan into the mountain gate.
When you enter the mountain gate, there are bluestone stone steps that rise steeply in front of you.
The stone steps meander upward, like a long ladder to the sky, as far as the eye can see, long snakes are entrenched, and they are hidden in a dense grove. It is surrounded by steep cliffs and cliffs.
Except for this stone step, there is no place on all sides where you can go up the mountain.
"This mountain is so high!"
The spring silkworm looked up at the towering mountain peaks and couldn't help muttering, "What a strange Taoist priest, why do you want to build a house on the top of the mountain?" It takes a bit of effort just to climb the steps, aren't they tired? ”
The spring silkworm's whisper reached the ears of the little Taoist, and he smiled lightly and said, "Master has a pure heart and few desires, and does not like the disturbance of the world, so he built the Qingfeng Temple on the top of Fengqi Mountain. Although it is difficult to climb the mountain, it also expresses the piety of the guests. If you have leg problems, you can choose to stop. ”
The little Taoist priest's words were secretly mocking and disdainful, and the spring silkworm immediately closed her mouth when she heard it.
Why is the master here, no matter how high the mountain is, you have to climb it. If you don't go up, won't all the hard work you have done all these days be in vain?
She stole a glance at Hua Lan.
Hua Lan had no choice but to say: "Little Master is polite, Hua Mou sincerely visited Changxu Daoist, naturally there is no reason to return in vain." ”
As he spoke, he took out a hundred taels of silver tickets from his body, quietly walked to the little Taoist priest and stuffed it in his hand, and whispered: "Guanli is hard every day, and these silver taels are given to the little master to beat his teeth." ”
The little Taoist priest was clever, his eyes were faster, and when he saw that it was a hundred taels of silver tickets, he hurriedly put it away with a smiling face, "Childe is really polite, people who cultivate the Tao devote themselves to cultivation, and they don't feel that it is hard, thank you Childe for being considerate and thoughtful." ”
The little Taoist priest accepted the silver taels, and his tone was naturally much more respectful, and it didn't take long for everyone to come to another mountain gate.
Probably the bright moon in front of him reported the news, and the little Taoist priest guarding the mountain gate saw the person coming and happily let him go.
Walking into the mountain gate, Hua Lan's eyes were about to bloom.
What is this place, this ...... It's too, it's too thrilling, isn't it?
In front of it was a steep cliff, connected by two long serpents in iron chains.
The cliff on the opposite side was hidden in a faint mist, and it was impossible to see what it was.
"Childe, please?"
Hua Lan's legs were a little weak as she walked forward, she glanced at the abyss under the chain bridge, and her heart flickered for a while: "What kind of fame is this Changxu Dao Chief?" Isn't it just a herb, what is this for, the whole formation is the same as the elixir immortal grass, is it necessary? ”
When he heard the little Taoist priest's love, he panicked, stared at the constantly shaking chain bridge, and asked hesitantly: "Little master, are you sure you want to take this rope bridge to that side?" ”
The little Taoist priest accepted Hua Lan's silver ticket, and naturally tilted his heart to Hua Lan's side, seeing that she was panicking, he smiled and said: "These two chains are indeed connected to the top of the mountain, but this is only a double gate, and there is a pass on it that is even more thrilling." I wonder if the young boy has strengthened his mind? ”
Isn't this nonsense, not firm-minded, so why am I here?
Hua Lan's face turned pale in a panic, peeked at the bottomless valley below the cliff, and nodded reluctantly: "This is natural, Hua Mou is sincere to visit Changxu Daoist." ”
"That's good."
The little Taoist smiled slyly, stretched out his hand to look at the sky and clapped his hands, three crisp sounds echoed in the valley, and the little Taoist priest of the second gate walked over and gently shook the chain a few times.
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle bells......
A series of pleasant bells rang, and the bells were staggered, as if thousands of wind chimes were shaking between the valleys, and for a time the echo was faint and resounded through the mountains.
"Master, look!"
The spring silkworm had sharp eyes, and saw a huge bamboo basket sliding down the cliff opposite the chain bridge.
The bamboo basket slid quickly, and as he spoke, it had already passed through the valley and slid in front of everyone.
"Ropeway? No way! It's also too ...... It's ......"
Hua Lan almost didn't rush out, everything in front of her made her understand what Dongfang Shiyu had said to him.
Changxu Dao Chang used so many means for this taste?
She sighed secretly, if there was no official document from the Imperial Hospital, with her current strength of Hua Lan, I am afraid that it would be difficult to break through the first line of protection.
Such a thrilling stone staircase, such a thrilling chain bridge?
She secretly glanced at Jin Se, who had been smiling warmly, and secretly thought, "I'm afraid it's difficult for Jin Se to see this Changxu Dao Master alone, right?" ”
Hua Lan hesitated, and the little Taoist priest had already ordered someone to open the door of the bamboo basket and said to her: "This bamboo basket is very strong, and the son does not have to worry about safety, please rest assured." ”
"What can I do if I don't worry, is it difficult to go back the way I came?"
Hua Lan secretly pursed her lips and gritted her teeth, as soon as her feet stepped in softly, Jin Se leaned over and stepped in, smiling with a spring breeze: "It's better for Jin Se to accompany Gongzi to go first." ”
Jin Se's voice was as sweet as ever, and this sweetness immediately calmed Hua Lan's heart, and she hurriedly glanced at the spring silkworm with an angry face.
The little Taoist priest didn't say anything, closed the door of the bamboo basket, pushed it hard, and the bamboo basket quickly slid towards the cliff on the opposite side of the valley.
The four sides of the basket are locked with strong iron chains, and on top of the chains are large iron rings the thickness of two wrists. There was a half-foot-long distance between the iron ring and the bamboo basket, just enough to expose half of Hua Lan's head.
