Chapter 17 Climbing the Mountain

It's easy to say, but if you think about it carefully, which of these two things takes time, since grandpa has already spoken, Liu Rufeng can be regarded as having hope, and then turned around and left.

After Liu Rufeng left, I remembered that Liu Rufeng asked Huang He Niangniang to ask for the Bafang Town River Map, so I asked my grandfather what was hidden in the town and river map, why Liu Rufeng wanted it so much, and whether it was the same one in Zhongchuan Heng's hand eighteen years ago.

Grandpa saw me ask him about the Zhenhe map, frowned and thought for a while before he said to me, "Since the death of Zhongchuan Hengyi eighteen years ago, that picture has never appeared, it may have sunk into the river together, and the Yellow River Niangniang's hand is not one, I don't know this, as for what is hidden in this Zhenhe map, I once heard a deceased elder in the village tell me......"

Legend has it that there are eight kings in the Yellow River, namely the golden turtle, the giant turtle, the black jiao, the water unicorn, the alligator, the frog, the green ao, and the quanke, which are in charge of eight different river basins.

And each Yellow River king has a map of the town of the eight directions in his hand, and the map is different, marking the secret treasure of the town river in the basin, according to legend, a map in hand can divide the world, then if you collect all eight maps, even the Jade Emperor has to give way.

Grandpa is talking about having a nose and eyes, I listened to it was stunned, grandpa said it was just a legend, for the secret of the Bafang Zhenhe map, I don't know if it is credible or not, even the Jade Emperor has to give way, this is a bit of a big deal, to say that I can find the Zhenhe baby I believe, otherwise it would be impossible for Zhongchuan Yokoichi to find the golden turtle of the eight kings.

As for where Nakagawa Yokoichi's map of the town came from at that time, it is unknown.

Grandpa also expressed his attitude before, saying that he wanted to complete two major events about me, and the major events of his life could be put on hold first, but my life could not be put aside, and after looking at the lunar month number, the day after tomorrow happened to be the day when the master's apprentice came out, so grandpa planned to leave overnight, and this time he also took me.

Wolong Mountain is a hundred miles away from Lishui Ao Village, this mountain is towering like a cloud, rugged and steep, like a heavenly dragon lying down, so it is called Wolong Mountain.

Originally, I thought that my grandfather would go alone, but I didn't expect him to take me with him, in order to solve the catastrophe of my life, I have to go, but in this way, I am afraid that tomorrow's agreement between me and Huanghe Niangniang will be.

I don't know why, on the way to Wolong Mountain, I was always restless, all I thought about was the lovely Yellow River Niangniang, I don't know if she will feel sad and sad because of my no-show, and I don't know if Liu Rufeng will go to her again.

On the way, I kept thinking about what the Yellow River Niangniang said to herself at that time, thousands of years ago...... 1,000 years later......

Maybe there is really a thousand-year-old relationship between me and her, otherwise why is it that the moment I see her, there is always an indescribable strange feeling in my heart, and sometimes there will be bursts of stinging pain in my heart.

My grandfather and I drove non-stop, walked all night and day, and arrived at the foot of Wolong Mountain after dark the next day.

Wolong Mountain was already rugged and steep, so Grandpa decided to rest at the foot of the mountain for one night and wait until dawn the next day to go up the mountain.

Maybe I was too tired, I fell asleep not long after lying down, and when I opened my eyes again, it was already early the next morning, my grandfather and I simply ate some dry food that we carried with us, and then stepped on the road to the top of Wolong Mountain.

It was the height of summer, but when we reached the top of the mountain, we found that the trees were covered with ice and dew, and the temperature above and below the mountain was very different.

From afar, I saw a small temple in a single courtyard standing on the edge of the cliff peak of Wolong Mountain, called Qingxin Temple, which must be the retreat of the master's apprentice.

Walking to the Qingxin Gate, Grandpa stretched out his hand to knock on the Gate, and reported loudly, "Shuiao Village has come to visit Shanjiu, please make it convenient." ”

Grandpa has not been moving since the briefing, I asked grandpa if the apprentice of this master has not yet reached the time to get out of the customs, grandpa frowned and said that there is this possibility, so I decided to sit at the gate and wait.

If I were at the bottom of the mountain, you would have told me to climb for a day, but this was on the top of the mountain where the cold wind was biting and dripping into ice, and if he didn't go out for a day, I would have to wait here for a day, and then I would have to freeze to death.

After only waiting for about half an hour, I was already freezing my snot into a river, and if I continued like this, I would definitely get sick, so I said to my grandfather, "Grandpa, I've been waiting for so long, and there is still no movement, I think we should come back tomorrow." ”

"Could it be that I have misremembered the day I got out of the customs?" Grandpa said to himself, and at this time, the closed door creaked open.

"Come in."

A shrill and immature voice came out, and I was stunned at the time, so I turned my head and asked my grandfather on the side, "Grandpa, why does the voice seem to be a child?" ”

Grandpa stood up, stretched out his hand, dusted off his wrinkled clothes, and said to me, "It's just that it sounds like it, don't be a debater, let's go." ”

I casually agreed, and followed my grandfather into the Pure Heart Temple.

There is nothing to see outside, but there is a hole in the view, only to see the bamboo forest fish pond in the view is everything, and from time to time there are bright birds flying by, what makes me puzzled is that it is just a door apart, the climate inside and outside the door is simply the same as two worlds, and there is no trace of cold here at all.

Seeing the strange environment in front of me, I unconsciously began to look around, and saw a red bird landing on the side without fear of people, so I stretched out my hand to touch it.

"Stop, take your dirty hands away, don't touch it!"

I don't see anyone but see his voice, and I am a master, but why am I so reluctant to listen to this, and let me take my dirty hands away, is this the words and deeds that a master should have?

At that time, I was unhappy in my heart, didn't you say that my hands were dirty and I wouldn't let me touch them, I just touched it to show you, and I reached out to the red bird and touched it.

"I said that you are deaf or can't understand people, tell you not to touch you, didn't you hear?"

My hand suddenly ached and retracted, and it felt like something had hit me, and when I looked down, I saw a chicken bone at my feet.

I'll go, and I'll eat chicken, is this person reliable......

This completely angered me, and I was about to say a few words, but I saw a petite girl appear in front of me.

I looked up and down at the girl in front of me, dressed in plain clothes, holding a chicken leg in one hand, and two skyrocketing slaps on the top of her head, she was about fourteen or fifteen years old.

"Little girl, why are you beating me with chicken bones." I said unhappily.

This is the grandfather on the side, who hurriedly glared at me and said, "Xiao Nan, how can you speak, this is the apprentice of the master, and he still doesn't apologize." ”

The apprentice of the master?

It's just such a girl's film, it's really fake, why don't I believe it so much, but since grandpa said it, it seems that it can't be faked, but let me apologize to her, I'm afraid I'm not the kind of person who is inferior.

Seeing my reluctance, the little girl pouted and snorted at me, then turned her head to her grandfather and said, "Old man, you are here again, how can you bring such a person who doesn't know how to be polite this time." ”

Oh, I'll go, I don't know the etiquette, I don't understand or you don't understand, and dare to call me grandpa old man, I just wanted to open my mouth and was glared at by my grandfather, so I could only keep silent, but my heart was called a suffocation.

"That, this is my grandson, I am ignorant and bumped into you, please forgive me."

Hearing what grandpa said, the little girl turned her head and looked me up and down with a curious expression, "Oh, it turns out that you are the person that Master said before he died, and I thought you were very handsome, but now it doesn't look very good." ”

At this moment, my fists were tightened, and if it weren't for the fact that she was a girl, I would have wanted to rush up and beat her up.

After the little girl finished speaking, she gave me a fierce look, and then turned her head to look at her grandfather, "Last time you came, my master just died, and I have no intention of helping you, so you can rest assured when you come back, although your grandson is not very good, but since the master asked me to do it on his deathbed, I will naturally do my best, but ...... I'm a little inconvenient these days, you go back first, wait for my convenience in two days, and go down the mountain to you in person, you see if it's okay. ”

"Then the old man is waiting for him." After saying that, my grandfather beckoned me to turn around and leave.

I was very puzzled when I heard this, so I hurriedly ran to my grandfather's side and whispered, "It's not grandpa, let's just leave, I look very good at her, why is it inconvenient?" ”

As I spoke, I glanced back at the little girl, only to see that she was staring at me with a red face and gritting her teeth, and she heard me in such a small voice, what kind of ear is this.

Grandpa didn't speak, but his face was a little ugly and pulled me to look out, and when he got out of the gate, grandpa said to me with a gloomy face, "I said that you are so old, why don't you understand this little thing, people are girls, there will always be inconvenient times." ”

Oh...... I understand, I said why is it inconvenient for her, it's been a mess for a long time, I really don't understand how that master could accept such a little girl as an apprentice, women are really troublesome.

My grandfather and I left Wolong Mountain and returned to Shuiao Village, and on the night I returned to Shuiao Village, I took advantage of Grandpa's inattention to run to the Yellow River, hoping to explain to the Yellow River Niangniang why I didn't come that night, if she still wants to kill me, let her kill it, anyway, after returning from Wolong Mountain, my heart is completely cold.
