Chapter 61: The People on Dragon Mountain

On both sides of the winding mountain road, surrounded by mountains, there is no half of a figure on the road, but Zhou Quan knows that in the seemingly quiet mountains, he doesn't know how many mysterious powers are hidden to protect the people on Longshan.

Halfway up the mountain, a person suddenly appeared in the bushes in front of him, and suddenly appeared, the driver stopped the car, opened the window, and after a few words with the man, he started the car again and continued to drive up.

This time, Zhou Quan saw people on the road, but those people just glanced at them from a certain place and disappeared again, Zhou Quan knew that the place was almost there.

The car went up along the winding mountain road, the terrain became higher and higher, and gradually, Zhou Quan saw a long stone step, very high, extending up from a short distance to the top of the mountain, and then going up it was so dark that nothing could be seen.

In front of the stone steps, the car stopped, the driver helped Zhou Shen open the door, and Zhou Quan got out of the car with Zhou Shen. ,

The driver nodded slightly and drove away, leaving only Zhou Quan and Zhou Shen in the empty valley.

The temperature in spring is not high, especially in the mountains, and the cold and fresh air is inhaled into the lungs to make people feel extra awake.

"Grandpa!" Zhou Quan let out a low cry and reached out to hold Zhou Shen's arm.

Zhou Shen patted Zhou Quan's hand soothingly, "I can only walk up here." ”

Zhou Quan nodded and followed Zhou Shen up the stone steps.

Zhou Quan's heart was shocked, that legendary person actually lived in such a deep mountain, I don't know what the place where he lived would be like?

Unconsciously, Zhou Quan began to imagine in his heart the various scenes that would appear in the future, surrounded by heavy guards, many sentry posts, numerous guards, Chinese-style villas, or European-style western-style buildings, etc.

The stone steps are very long, but they are very smooth, it is very dark here, the moon and stars have not yet risen, and the stone steps are only showing a little shape Zhou Quan helped Zhou Shen to walk up slowly, but his eyes kept looking at it.

Halfway through, Zhou Shen stopped for a short rest, looked at it and said to Zhou Quan: "Don't be afraid, it's coming soon." ”

"I'm not afraid, I'm afraid you'll fall!"

"Hehe......" Zhou Shen smiled, and after taking a few breaths of mountain air, he said, "Let's go!" ”

As the top of the mountain approached, Zhou Quan seemed to see a little light, and when he climbed the last stone step, his eyes widened in surprise.

A building appeared in front of him, Zhou Quan had imagined those luxury villas, antique palaces, and even chic modern buildings before, but the only thing he didn't expect was that the building in front of him turned out to be just a Taoist temple!

"This ......" Zhou Quan looked back at Zhou Shen beside him.

"Surprised?" Zhou Shen smiled and looked at the Taoist temple in front of him, "The person you want to see is inside." ”

Zhou Quan temporarily suppressed his strong curiosity and shock, and followed Zhou Shen towards the Taoist temple.

There is a vacant lot in front of the gate of the Taoist temple, and there is a stone archway in front of it, but the plaque on the top is blank without any inscription, and the gate of the Taoist temple inside is a very old wooden gate.

When the two of them walked to the door and just raised their hands to knock on the door, the door opened with a "squeak" inside, and an old man about the same age as Zhou Shen walked out of it, but his mental and physical condition seemed to be much stronger than Zhou Shen.

The man's hair was snow-white and no longer than his ears, his long beard hung down to his chest, his face was not wrinkled at all, and he was wearing a set of gray Chinese-style linen clothes and trousers, and black cloth shoes with mille-feuille soles.

Seeing the two of them, the man nodded slightly, "Coming?" ”

"Butler!" Zhou Shen hurriedly folded his hands respectfully and saluted.

Seeing this, Zhou Quan also hurriedly bowed, housekeeper? When Zhou Quan was still thinking about whether this person was that person, Zhou Shen had already called out as a housekeeper.

"Come in! This is the young man you talked about earlier! Your grandson? The housekeeper looked at Zhou Quan and asked.

"Yes, Zhou Quan, come and salute the housekeeper!" Zhou Shen said to Zhou Quan.

Zhou Quan was surprised, didn't he bow just now? Why did Grandpa still want him to salute? However, Zhou Quan has always respected the old man's words, so he folded his hands and bowed to the housekeeper again, "Hello housekeeper grandpa!" ”

"Huh...... Just call me a housekeeper, no need to add grandpa, this kid looks very good, let's go in and talk about it, Hua Lao has been waiting for you for a while! ”

The housekeeper's words made Zhou Shen overjoyed, and he could get a word of praise from the housekeeper, which seemed to be very unexpected by Zhou Shen, and he quickly pulled Zhou Quan to follow the housekeeper respectfully and walked into the Taoist temple.

Zhou Quan was a little confused about what was going on, why was grandpa so happy? How did he know what kind of transcendent status this butler had in the whole of China? Usually he is that person's housekeeper, and he has followed that person for I don't know how many years.

Zhou Shen, who has always been indifferent to the praise of his grandson by the people around him, just because of the housekeeper's praise, the old man was very happy, but he thought more and farther in his heart.

The kung fu on the housekeeper is unfathomable, aside from the current aircraft cannons, just talking about cold weapons, even those people in the dark night of Huaguo are not necessarily his opponents, if he can get his favor, not to mention the success in the future, it is also a superior existence, can Zhou Shen not be happy?

As the housekeeper walked through the Taoist temple and went straight to the backyard, a Tang style meditation room appeared in front of Zhou Quan, a faint dim light shone out from the large window lattice, the housekeeper walked through the verandah, opened the door, and the entire interior of the meditation room was revealed.

In the simple Zen room, there is a mahogany dwarf table and a few futons in it, and there is a person sitting behind the dwarf, the appearance of the crane hair and childish face is similar to that of the housekeeper, the only thing is that the beard is a little shorter, just covering the chin, the appearance is not surprising, the eyes are deep and clear, and the full spirit can not see that he is already a hundred years old!

Zhou Shen hurriedly pulled Zhou Quan to the edge of the verandah, took off his shoes and walked in, and the housekeeper closed the door from the outside.

Zhou Shen pulled Zhou Quan and gave a deep salute to the people behind the short table.

"I'm really sorry for disturbing us at night, disturbing Hua Lao's rest!" Zhou Shen said respectfully.

"Don't be too formal, come and sit!" The voice of the person behind the short table is very low and majestic, which makes people feel a sense of oppression unconsciously.

After getting permission, Zhou Quan helped Zhou Shen to sit cross-legged in front of the short table.

Zhou Quan carefully looked at the legendary old man in front of him, but the old man's calm and watery face made Zhou Quan's learned profession useless, he couldn't see anything, the only thing he could feel was the sense of oppression that was not angry and self-threatening, which was carried by the superior who had lived on the people for a long time.

"Xiao Zhou!" The old man spoke, Zhou Quan just wanted to agree, but Zhou Shen next to him bowed his head and agreed, and Zhou Quan realized that this was called Zhou Shen.

"You're talking about this kid wanting to see me!"

"Hua Lao, he is my grandson, and now he is under Shi Jinnan!" Zhou Shen turned his head to look at Zhou Quan.

Zhou Quan hurriedly lowered his head slightly, "Hello Hua Lao, my name is Zhou Quan, Minister Shi told me that you are looking for someone, and you have given me this task, let me see if I can help!" Also, when I encountered some problems at work, my father and Uncle Shi both suggested that I come to you, hoping to learn something from you! ”

Hua Tian nodded, "Well, you talk about your problem first!" ”

Zhou Quan told the serial murder case that happened in Jiangcheng in detail, but he didn't expect that when Hua Lao heard that the deceased's head had traces of acupuncture, his face was finally no longer calm, revealing a faint excitement.

"You say, the person you're looking for is someone who has both kung fu and acupuncture?" Hua Tian's voice raised a little, which made Zhou Quan seem to see hope, and the information he got from Hua Lao's expression change was that Hua Lao must have known about the existence of such a person.

"Yes, but the suspects we found according to the profiles don't seem to be right, even if the younger ones can match, but the adult has almost no clues, and the only one passed away during the Chinese New Year last year, and the younger one is currently the most suspicious and the most consistent with all the characteristics."

Hearing this, Hua Tian took a deep breath and said as if talking to himself: "I've passed away!" ”

"Did you know that such a person exists?" Zhou Quan asked.

"I do know that there is such a person, and he is also the person I asked to go out to find, but if that person is still alive, he should be over 100 years old, when I met him, I was only a teenager, and that person looks much older than me, should be in his thirties!"

After a brief silence in the meditation room, Hua Tian began to talk about him and the man he was looking for.

China has a long history and has always lived in peace with its friends, but at that time, that island country had always coveted our vast land and profound heritage.

Nearly a hundred years ago, their wolf ambitions were exposed and they began that protracted aggression against us.

At that time, Hua Tian's father was the most outstanding military leader of Huaguo, a famous general, responsible for the defense of Kyoto, taking the lead in resisting foreign enemies, bravely killing the enemy, and using his extraordinary courage and command to repel these invaders again and again.

Originally, foreign enemies are not terrible, but what is terrible is to be betrayed by the most trusted person.

Hua Tian's father was killed on the battlefield by a traitor bribed by the enemy, and the current housekeeper was originally an orphan saved by Hua Tian's father, and Hua Tian got along like a brother, Hua Tian's father named him Hua Qiu, which means not to forget the national shame and family hatred.

The two of them fought bravely with their father in the army, but the traitor betrayed and his father died on the battlefield, and Hua Tian and Hua Qiu resisted stubbornly with the rest of the people.

At the height of the battle, the traitors opened the door to the enemy's rear, which led to heavy losses for our troops, and under the cover of my father's heartfelt men, a group of men and horses fought and retreated, all the way to the south.

In a mountain forest, Hua Tian and Hua Qiu were chased by the pursuers, and the two were chased by those hateful and greedy enemies to the edge of a cliff and surrounded them.

At that time, Hua Tian and Hua Qiu were still teenagers, and the unprecedented fear and hatred of being invaded by foreign enemies made the two grow up overnight, and they were no longer the carefree children they once were, and he and Hua Qiu fought fiercely with those enemies with their last breath.

However, there were too many pursuers, and the tigers were afraid of the wolves, and no matter how brave they were, they were only teenagers, and the two gradually became a little overwhelmed, and their bodies were scarred everywhere, and the heartfelt subordinates of their father, who had covered them all the way, fell under the enemy's guns one by one.

The enemy's losses were also very large, but they swore to capture the general's son to the death, so as to deter the other troops who were still resisting stubbornly.
