The mountains are urgent, the rivers are dangerous, the broken walls on both sides of the river are towering, the strange trees are climbing high, and all the sounds are silent.

"Bang!" A rush of water rang out.

A four-foot-old fish covered in bean-sized scales came out of the water.

The water dropped, and a black shadow quickly skimmed, disappearing between the stormy canyons with the big fish.

As the twilight fell, a fire suddenly lit up among the otherwise gloomy trees.

Miscellaneous insects chirp left and right, and fierce beasts lurk in the grassy forest.

I saw a young man, dressed in good clothing, lighting a fire in front of him, putting a wooden stick on the shelf, and hanging a big fish on the stick.

The internal organs of the fish scales have been completely removed, and there are eight scratches on the left and right sides of the fish's body, and the greasy meat is seen at both ends, which is white and tender, which is not quite the same as ordinary fish meat.

The young man is naturally the Qingyuan who went down the mountain to accept apprentices, this is the boundary of Lishan, as early as the Northern Qi Dynasty, I had heard that Lishan herring pressed seafood.

This is the first time in 20 years that I have come down the mountain, how can I not come to see it.

He received the order of the master, and obtained two golden rays of light, one of which was only a few hours between Middle-earth and the master's gate, and even if he did not find it for three days, it did not delay him from returning to the door to check his homework.

The fish had been on fire for a long time at this time, and the gray-brown scales rolled slightly, and a faint fragrance wafted out.

Qingyuan flipped his hand, and a white porcelain jade bottle was held in his hand.

Uncorked the bottle, a mellow spicy sensation spreads with a slight sweetness.

Pour into the slashed sword marks on it.

In the grass forest on one side, a low whimper suddenly alarmed Qing Yuan.

Only this time, before he could make a move, an agile figure crossed the ramp, and then a fighting sound sounded on the side, but it didn't take long to stop.

"Little brother is alone so late, so he is not afraid of danger?" A hoarse-sounding but neutral voice came from the mouth of an old beggar who did not look good.

Qingyuan stood up and saluted the old beggar, "Thank you for your help." ”

The old beggar's bright eyes turned, and he held on to a strange wooden shovel beside him that was used as an iron crutch, and swallowed: "This ...... It's getting late, did Childe's mother ever say to Childe that he needs to protect himself when he is alone? ”

Qingyuan looked at the other party staring directly at the fish on his grill, and had a plan in his heart: "Sir, sit down here and say." ”

As he spoke, he handed over the animal skin that he had sat on.

The old beggar dusted off with a little disgust.

Qingyuan didn't care, although the old man in front of him was dressed in sewing, he was clean.

Sitting in front of the fire, the old beggar rubbed his hands: "When will this fish be eaten?" I have never heard this fragrance of the old man, what is it? ”

Qingyuan took out the white porcelain vase and handed it over.

The old beggar was a little surprised, but finally took it curiously.

Smelled it, and his eyes lit up: "Huosong, shutters, rhinoceros, prickly peppers......"

The old beggar suddenly paused as he spoke: "In addition to these, there seem to be a few other things, but I haven't tasted the old man, so I don't know." ”

"The old gentleman is really hidden." Qingyuan said while flipping the fish, "These condiments are not bad at all. ”

The old beggar smiled: "Old man, I don't have any other skills, but I am interested in eating." ”

"Haven't asked the old gentleman for his name?"

"Old man, I'm a rough person, don't talk about respect, big, just call me the old eight."

Qing Yuan thought about it for a while, and then said, "Old Qi." ”

Qi Ming's family is ranked eighth, and he has never heard anyone shout old when he walked the rivers and lakes in the past.

"Little boy, you haven't said what you did here late at night." Crossing the topic, Qi Ming took the fish meat wrapped in branches and leaves by Qingyuan and asked.

"I want to go east, but I'm just passing through here today."

"To the east? To go to the east of Lishan, you need to pass through Shumen, which is not easy to walk, and it has been rumored in the rivers and lakes recently......"

Qi Ming mysteriously hooked his finger towards Qingyuan.

Qingyuan got up and sat closer.

"Rumors...... There are ghosts! Qi Ming trembled his gray beard and shouted loudly.

Qing Yuan took a deep breath and forcibly pressed the eardrum that was about to burst.

"Hahaha!" Qi Ming laughed to himself, and then saw Qingyuan with an indifferent face, the laughter suddenly stopped, and he coughed with embarrassment, "Don't think the old man is joking." ”

Qingyuan took a bite of the fish, and the meat was delicious and mellow.

Seeing that Qingyuan was still unmoved, Qi Ming blushed a little, got up and put half a fish in his hand, and said: "Save your life today, exchange for half of your herring fish, the night is deep and long, son, don't call the sky to grab the ground to ask for ghosts and gods!" ”

The sound of the drama is far away, leaving the fire and the sky empty.

By the fire, the old man had been seated on a hide, and a rough booklet was placed on it.

Qingyuan knew that this was a "martial arts master" of the game Hongchen, but he didn't want to be just a half-tailed fish in exchange for an opportunity that others could not find in their lives.

I was about to take the booklet.

saw that the old beggar suddenly went and returned, only to see him looking at Qingyuan with a solemn face.

Then his eyes fell on the booklet on the animal skin, and his face was soothed, and then he picked it up with lightning speed and fled.

Qingyuan recalled the two naked "move diagrams" he had just seen on the cover of the booklet.

No, why don't you talk about the internal qi circulation acupoints around men and women.

And what is the meaning of the word "Spring Palace"?

……

At dawn on the second day, Yanbei accepted the food sent by Kansai and his family, sorted out his backpack, and thought that it would take a few days to enter the mountain, so he packed all the precious classics on the table.

This scene was seen in another pair of eyes.

Just as he was about to leave, a voice suddenly came from the Zhuangzi in the rear: Slow.

"Isn't this a? What did he do? Who was pulling next to him? The good-looking woman beside Kansai spoke.

Kansai and Yanbei glanced at each other, but they didn't know each other.

Fortunately, the two of them came over and arrived in a short time.

"Huh, who is this?" Yan Bei pointed to the young man beside him who was a little more bookish than Yan Bei and asked.

Yun breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "This is also a talented master, I only arrived in Zhuangzi yesterday evening, I am afraid that he will ......."

Speaking of this, Yun suddenly changed his tone: "I only learned this morning that he was going to go through this northern mountain to Tianjing to participate in the imperial examination. ”

Yan Bei looked at the young man in surprise, and waved his hands: "I see, I don't know why the son is here?" ”

The young man hurriedly put down the bookcase on his shoulder, and also gave a salute to Yanbei: "I heard that Mr. is also going into the mountain, so I want to come and go together." ”

Kansai snorted suddenly, and looked at Yun angrily: "I know that Mr. entered the mountain but didn't come to send it?" ”

He smiled and didn't dare to say more.

Yan Bei looked at the young man in the field: "I don't know the name of the son, but do you have a document?" ”

"Yes." The young man replied, "The ancestor Song is clumsy. ”

Then he took out a piece of paper from the bookcase he carried and handed it to Yanbei.

Yan Bei looked at it, and there was no problem with the style of the paperwork.

"There are many dangers in entering the mountains this time, I hope Brother Yan will think about it."

"When I came, I had heard Brother Yun talk about Brother Mosheng's deeds, so I naturally trusted you as a person, and it is convenient for me to keep vigil at night." Song Shuyan bent down and said.

"Since you have made up your mind, you can go with me on the road, but there are many dangers on the road, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to be safe."

"It's okay, if this body should be buried here, then no one can complain." Song Zhuoyan's delicate face was full of determination.

Yan Bei closed it in his eyes, knowing that this was another person with a past.

Through the conversation just now, the other party's temperament is not bad, and it is also a great thing if there is a colleague who can talk and laugh along the way.

Just looking at the bookcase and books behind Song Zhuoyan, Yan Bei wanted to speak several times.

The way of the imperial examination has changed now.

The sky was clear, and there was one more person in the mountain, but he came in a little hurry, and he didn't bother to buy some food.

Kansai scolded him angrily again, but fortunately, his mother-in-law was much more prepared, and the two of them could survive it evenly, and there was no need to dwell on it.

"Stop." Outside the forest, Yan Bei and Song Zhuoyan turned around and persuaded Guanxi, who insisted on sending each other, if they were sent down again, they would be on the road together according to the other party's posture.

After saying goodbye, the two went into the forest together.

Yun stepped forward at this time, and Haosheng comforted Kansai: "You don't have to worry too much......"

"How can you not be worried?" Kansai glared at him angrily, "You said that you saw that outside this forest...... What, Mr. didn't say a word and came here to settle the grass, over the years, has there been an accident? ”

"I didn't ...... Yes. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and in this autumn morning, he was embarrassed.

"And what about the letter to the people that you promised sir? Mr. himself is not asking for you, but where do you yourself come from such brazenness? ”

"This ...... Sir is offended by the big guys, I ...... How to take this risk with the upper and lower belts. ”

Kansai sneered: "Well, if Mr. comes back this time, he will leave soon." ”

"What?" Surprised, "Mr. is leaving?" ”

"Yes, Mr. has been here for five years, and some time ago I heard that there was a fairy door opened, and I wanted to find a fairy fate."

"But I'll wait for the ...... on the bank"

"Don't you think it's a little ridiculous to control others and say your own sins?"

The breeze gusted, Kansai's figure was far away, and Yun Fang came back to his senses and glanced at the forest, but suddenly saw a black shadow flashing, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly retreated and said forgiveness.

When the wind stopped and the leaves fell, but the surroundings were empty, he breathed a long sigh of relief, turned around and walked back, but suddenly his eyes were dark, and he lost consciousness before he could savor the sharp pain in the back of his head.

A six-foot-tall white monkey appeared behind it.

It turned out that the scene just now had been completely captured by the eyes and ears of the white monkey.

Looking at the man who fell to the ground, the white monkey's black and white eyes rolled......
