Chapter 42: Frost Falls

The morning forest is swaying and singing, there is a cold fog in the mountains, the first frost is born, the air is solemn and the frost falls, and the yin begins to condense.

Today's Li Changfeng's birthday, but he is gone.

It should be said that in the past month, except for Li Bezhi, who saw Li Changfeng stumbling every day when the moon and stars were scarce, no one else knew where he went.

But Li Bezhi saw his brother less and less.

Li Changfeng came back later and later, the beginning of the period was the time of the people, after three days, the time was delayed until the middle of the night, and half a month later, when the rooster crowed, he could see Li Changfeng who was as drunk as he was drunk.

The time he spent in Yuenan Pavilion was getting longer and longer, and Li Bezhi had also seen that Li Changfeng had more and more injuries on his body.

But today is Li Changfeng's birthday, Li Bezhi got up early in the morning and rolled out his hands, but Li Changfeng was still gone.

"Sizzle..."

Situ Qianjin was holding the noodle soup bowl, but his mouth was still talking: "Unbelievable." ”

Shu Mingyue took the opportunity to take away a piece of bacon with attractive color from Situ Qianjin's bowl, and then said, "What do you say is unbelievable?"

Situ Qianjin was unconscious: "Those puppets in the Yuenan Pavilion are known as murder weapons in the world, even if I go in, I will hold three sticks of incense at most, but Li Changfeng, this kid, disappeared as soon as he plunged in, it felt like his own home, it was too unbelievable." ”

Zhou Xiuye said with a glance: "Zhenyuan is ineffective against puppets, and the old man Tianshu will not allow you to use Zhenyuan, in case his beloved puppet is broken, you still have to work for him, although Changfeng has just broken the sea and led the tide, he has been practicing swords for a long time, and he should rely on his own martial arts and strength to deal with the puppet, so it is reasonable." ”

After finishing, Zhou Xiuye added seriously: "You can only hold three incense sticks because you are weak!"

Situ Qianjin stood up and said angrily: "Second fool, who do you say is weak?

Shu Mingyue tugged and tugged at their clothes: "What are you doing, don't hold on to the girl, you two are not ashamed!"

Situ Qianjin snorted coldly: "It's him who should be ashamed!"

Zhou Xiuye blushed slightly and lowered his head to eat noodles.

When Li Changfeng came out of the Yuenan Pavilion, he was already wearing the stars and the moon, he lay on his back on the boat, he couldn't even do it with his hands to brush the water, and when the green boat floated to the center of the lake, he saw the bright moon in the sky and the starry sky, beautiful and quiet, so that he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

There is a pair of stone pixiu in front of the Yuenan Pavilion, at this time there is an old man in a plain robe standing next to Pixiu, with a medium waist and straight spine, gray hair but waist-length braids, the most attractive thing is his eyes, which seem to be as deep as a vast sea of stars.

There is only one living person who lives south of this lake all the year round and is accompanied by a puppet, the old man Tianshu.

The old man Tianshu took out a paper and pen from his arms, opened them and crossed them in the nine column.

He touched Shi Pixiu's head and said: "I remember that there were only two people who could clear the nine stone towers in a month, one was naturally Zhong Fatzi's martial idiot brother, and the other was this kid's father, the tiger father has no dogs, but this true yuan is more powerful than his father's back then, insisting on judging Ruoyunni... Forget it, my old man is old and cares so much about what he does. ”

Li Changfeng didn't expect that from the moment he stepped into the Yuenan Pavilion, the old man Tianshu had been paying attention to him, and there were nine stone towers in the Yuenan Pavilion, with a total of nine hundred and eighty-one layers, and the puppets were not counted.

And Li Changfeng cleared the nine stone towers within a month and was registered by the old man Tianshu.

Li Changfeng dragged his tired body back to the stove room, his stomach was already hungry, and at this time, the star curtain was first opened, and the bright moonlight sprinkled on the bluestone road.

He walked into the stove to see if there was any leftovers, but found a bowl of noodles on the table.

A simple bowl of bacon oil noodles, covered with bamboo outside, although the noodles are wide and fat, they are still a ball of paste, which should have been put for a long time.

Li Changfeng picked up the dishes and chopsticks and took a big gulp and put them in his mouth, if the people who were blind to the black light thought that they were starving to death and reincarnated.

Li Changfeng didn't want to be scared, but he was scared by others for no reason.

In the dark corner of the stove room, there is always a place where the moonlight can't fall, and a dark shadow suddenly appears there, and a person is sitting there looking at Li Changfeng.

Although Li Changfeng said that the true yuan was not enough, at least he had broken through the sea and led the tide, and he could already sense the breath of heaven and earth, but this person, Li Changfeng couldn't even feel his breath.

"You're done eating?"

Li Changfeng's eyes widened, and his surprise could still be seen even if the light was low: "Zhong... Dean Zhong?"

He stepped out of the darkness, and his fat body immediately appeared.

Uncle Zhong looked at Li Changfeng and said without surprise or joy: "You eat so fragrant in the middle of the night, have you ever thought about my feelings?"

Li Changfeng was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself that you are sitting here like a hanged ghost, who could have guessed?

But he said, "Or... Shall I order you a bowl of noodles?"

Dean Zhong nodded.

Li Changfeng lifted the pot and poured water to make a fire to cook noodles in one go, the shining light in the stove shone on Li Changfeng's slightly immature face, and the crackling sound of the firewood being burned turned out to be the loudest sound in the stove room.

Both were silent.

Li Changfeng felt that he should say something.

"Dean Zhong, I really didn't expect you to come. Li Changfeng said seriously.

"If you can imagine it, that's not reasonable. ”

Li Changfeng nodded, and said in his heart that this guy really can't chat, and he can talk to death as soon as he opens his mouth.

And so the scene fell silent again.

Zhong Shuli said lightly: "You broke the sea and led the tide?"

Li Changfeng nodded: "Yes, I was lucky enough to break my divine photo." ”

Zhong Shuli said: "It's not a fluke to be able to break the black dragon barrier. ”

Li Changfeng was stunned for a moment, thinking that it might be Yan Jiaoxi who told Dean Zhong, so he didn't hide it, and said frankly: "The student met someone from the Tantric Sect of the Xisai Kingdom in Jinniu Town, and got his help to break the Black Dragon Barrier and Shenzhao. ”

"Then after breaking the sea and leading the tide, why didn't you go to the Library Pavilion to learn the exercises, but went to the Yuenan Pavilion?"

Li Changfeng knew that although this green mountain and ten thousand acres of land was large, nothing could be hidden from this unremarkable dean, so he responded seriously: "The student's talent is dull and the meridians are not smooth, and he wants to build a foundation with his body first, so that it may be helpful to practice the exercises in the future." ”

Zhong Shuli nodded in praise.

"But there's another reason. ”

Li Changfeng continued: "Actually, the students have not yet figured out what kind of exercises to practice, and they don't know anything about it. ”

Uncle Zhong laughed out loud, and a wave of meat set off on his stomach.

"I wonder what the dean's guidance is?"

Uncle Zhong snorted and said: "You kid, don't think that I don't know what the hell you are thinking, lead me into your set one step at a time, and when I eat your bowl of noodles, I'm afraid that I won't have anywhere to put my old face if I don't leave anything. ”

Li Changfeng smiled innocently: "Dean Zhong is clever, and what the students think in their hearts can't hide from you." ”

"Hmph, don't worry, I won't eat your stuff for nothing!

The corners of Li Changfeng's mouth were as frilled as a wrinkled orange peel: "It must be." ”

When Li Changfeng lifted the lid of the pot, the white foam rolled with the boiling water, he scooped up the noodles and poured hot oil, sprinkled green onions and covered the bacon, and a bowl of fragrant oily noodles was placed in front of Zhong Shuli.

Uncle Zhong moved his index finger and whirred as he ate.

Li Changfeng looked at Uncle Zhong who was feasting with a smile, and thought silently in his heart, eat more and eat more, wait for you to eat a bowl of belly, and you won't be able to pick up three taels of meat when the time comes.

When the dishes and chopsticks bottomed out, Uncle Zhong burped his belly and said lightly, "Let's go." ”

"Where are you going?"

"The Library Building. ”

Li Changfeng was really surprised, Dean Zhong's coming to him in the middle of the night can be understood as a heart-to-heart talk, why did he take himself to the library pavilion?

"What, are you afraid that I will eat you?" said Uncle Zhong, turning his head from his negative hand.

Li Changfeng hurriedly followed, and just followed Uncle Zhong up the mountain step by step, walking along the bluestone road.

The moon and stars are scarce, and the starry sky is like a curtain

Li Changfeng followed within three steps behind Dean Zhong.

He thought that this magical Dean Zhong would take him through the clouds, but unfortunately no, Dean Zhong was just stepping on the bluestone road step by step, so he could only follow behind him.

There are still candles swaying in the library pavilion, silhouettes on the window, sometimes the tiger roars and the dragon sings, sometimes the crane sings in the sky, sometimes there is the green and green bamboo swaying and singing, and sometimes there is the Yanjin sword dance Xiangjiang.

Li Changfeng felt a pressure, a pressure shuttling down from the tower.

But he still followed Uncle Zhong until he reached the sixth floor.

On the sixth floor, there are candle flames, and there are also old men with kind eyebrows who are staring at the comers.

Six Elders, Nanwei.

Nanwei looked at Li Changfeng and said with a smile, "Coming?"

Li Changfeng's eyes widened: "What's coming?"

Uncle Zhong slapped him on the head, frowned, and said, "How did you talk to the elders?"

Li Changfeng then saluted: "Old man, what are you coming for?"

Uncle Zhong was furious, and he wanted to slap him directly into the mud.

Nan Wei laughed, and there were debris and dust falling on the beams of the earthquake.

"I have been on the sixth floor of the library of Nanshan Academy for more than 20 years, and I am guarding the sword pond on this six-story building, my name is Nanwei. ”

Li Changfeng saluted seriously: "Elder Nanwei, the kid didn't know before, don't blame him if he offends." ”

Nan Wei nodded and said, "Someone asked me to accept you as a disciple before, but I didn't think I could teach you, so I naturally agreed to her and allowed you to choose a weapon in this sword pool." ”

Li Changfeng's mind spun like a fly: "Elder Nanwei, how do you know that you can't teach me if you don't try, or you can accept me!"

Uncle Zhong secretly said that this kid is loyal, but the trick of beating the snake and sticking is perfect.

Nan Wei laughed again: "It's not that I don't want to, but I really can't teach you, I'll tell you the reason later, now you can go to the sword pool." ”

Li Changfeng surrounds this acre and three points of land, in addition to the stone tablet of the word "world", there are two or three hundred ancient books, where is the sword pool?

"Old man, where is the sword pool?" As soon as Li Changfeng's voice fell, he suddenly found that he was no longer in the six-story building.

There is a starry sky overhead, a sword pool under your feet, and countless hidden swords.
