After sending Qiu Qianren away, Wang Jinlong and Hong Qigong's journey after that was safe, even if there were a few little thieves, they would be disposed of in advance by the Iron Palm Gang, which would affect their mood.

Under the leadership of Hong Qigong, the two of them became more and more remote, and the roads became narrower and narrower, most of which could only accommodate one person, and the narrowest part even had to be squeezed sideways. After walking along the trail for more than an hour, I saw a large waterfall rushing down from between the two peaks, and the sound was quite amazing.

Wang Jinlong looked at the waterfall and exclaimed: "There is such a scenery hidden here, it is really rare." Does this waterfall have a name? It shouldn't be a yellow fruit tree, right? ”

Hong Qigong said inexplicably: "The waterfall still has a name?" It is even more impossible to call it a yellow fruit tree, what does the fruit tree have to do with the waterfall? ”

Huangguoshu Waterfall is in Guizhou, and this is Hunan, which is far worse. Moreover, Huangguoshu Waterfall was the fame promoted by Xu Xiake in the Ming Dynasty, and it was the Southern Song Dynasty at this time, except for the locals, few people knew about Huangguoshu Waterfall, and Hong Qigong had certainly not heard of it.

There is a small hut next to the waterfall, and in front of the hut there is a row of willow trees, and a fisherman in a cloak is sitting under the willow trees to fish. Because the sound of the waterfall was too loud, he didn't notice the arrival of Wang Jinlong and Hong Qigong, and still sat there quietly. It wasn't until Hong Qigong came behind him and coughed heavily that he turned his head in surprise, and then hurriedly got up and saluted: "Junior, meet Senior Hong!" ”

Hong Qigong was not polite to him, nodded and said, "Take us to see Emperor Duan." ”

The fisherman agreed, and went back to the hut, carrying out a swarthy boat and two stalks of iron pulp. Wang Jinlong asked, "Is this going up against the waterfall by boat?" Why bother with this, wouldn't it be better to just use light work? ”

The fisherman was very polite to Hong Qigong, but he didn't have a good attitude towards Wang Jinlong, and said disdainfully: "Go up with light skills? Then go up on your own. ”

Hong Qigong persuaded: "Brother Yang, the rock wall here is smooth and hard, there is nowhere to borrow strength, and no matter how good the light work is, it is impossible to jump up." ”

Wang Jinlong smiled: "How can there be nowhere to borrow? If there is no place to borrow strength, how can his iron boat go upstream? The reason why the iron boat can go upriver is actually very simple, that is, the speed of sailing upwards is faster than the speed of falling water; Why can an iron boat fall faster than the current? It's because the iron slurry wafts faster. To achieve that speed, you have to overcome the resistance of the water flow first, and then you have to overcome your own gravity, how much effort does it take? But it's different when we use light work, we don't have to move forward in the water, we just need to overcome our own gravity, isn't it much easier? ”

Hong Qigong and the fisherman glanced at each other, and some didn't understand. What speed, gravity, what does it mean?

Wang Jinlong shook his head and said, "I'll show you how you can understand, and the iron paste will be used by me." ”

He unloaded his black iron sword and large iron spear, and took the fisherman's iron slurry in his hand. Although the weight of iron pulp is not light, compared with the Xuantie Sword and the big iron spear, it is a small thing. The Xuantie Sword and the Great Iron Spear combined weighed more than two hundred catties. The two handles of iron paste add up, only sixty or seventy catties, and the slurry surface is wide, which is conducive to water-repellent and borrowing, which is a very useful tool.

Wang Jinlong came to the waterfall, and after a little preparation, he jumped up. Jumping up to a height of three zhang, when he was about to fall, the iron slurry in his right hand slapped down violently, and the water of the falling waterfall exploded, and Wang Jinlong took advantage of this strength to jump up again. Then the iron slurry in his left hand struck downward, and the figure went up again. The left and right hands took turns carrying the iron pulp, and the movements were similar to rowing, and soon they flew to the top of the cliff.

Hong Qigong and the fisherman were stunned, Wang Jinlong's movements looked dazzling, but if you think about it carefully, it seems to be really simple. Compared with rowing an iron boat upstream, there is just one less iron boat, and the principle is actually the same. It's just that without the iron boat, it is not affected by the resistance of the current, which is really much easier! Not to mention Hong Qigong, even if he is a fisherman, he is sure to go up.

After Wang Jinlong stood still on the waterfall, he turned around and beckoned: "Attention, the iron slurry is thrown down!" ”

As he spoke, he used the iron slurry as a javelin and threw it from the top of the cliff. Iron slurry is an iron guy after all, and it comes with a howling wind when it is thrown from a high place. Fortunately, Wang Jinlong's strength was well controlled, and he accurately landed not far in front of Hong Qigong and the fisherman's feet, but when he landed, he was inserted into the ground for more than three feet.

Hong Qigong raised his head and asked, "You yourself have gone up, what about your iron sword and iron spear?" ”

Wang Jinlong said: "Trouble Brother Hong, bring it to me!" ”

Hong Qigong smiled bitterly: "You also look too high at me, this cliff is forty or fifty zhang high, you can't go up with more than 200 catties of iron swords and iron guns, I can go up?" ”

Then the fisherman interjected: "I'd better take it with the iron boat, although the iron boat is much slower, but it is very convenient to carry things." ”

Hong Qigong nodded and said, "Okay, I'll trouble you." ”

The fisherman didn't dare to even say anything, so he picked up the iron boat, picked up the iron sword and iron spear, turned around and walked to the right. Wang Jinlong saw clearly at the top of the cliff and asked, "Where are you going?" ”

Hong Qigong smiled: "Of course it's a different way, do you think it's really going against the waterfall?" ”

Wang Jinlong was dumbfounded: "Huh? Is there another way? ”

He immediately followed and walked to the right, only to find a rushing stream hidden in a crevice in the rocks, which he would not have been able to spot unless he had looked closer.

Wang Jinlong was speechless, he couldn't remember the details of the original work, but he only roughly remembered that he was going upstream, and when he saw the waterfall, he took it for granted that he was going up against the waterfall. In fact, as long as you think about it, you will know that he and Hong Qigong can't go up with the Xuantie Sword and the big iron gun without using the iron boat, why can the fisherman use the iron boat to lead people? You must know that it will be more laborious to use an iron boat, and the fisherman's martial arts are far inferior to him, isn't it a contradiction?

The stream the fisherman walked on, even if not as steep as the waterfall, was so rapid, that it took him a long time to paddle up. After he came up, he threw the iron slurry down again, and Hong Qigong learned Wang Jinlong's method and came up directly from the waterfall.

After Hong Qigong also came up, he still needed to take a boat on the road behind. The iron boat can only carry two people, and Hong Qigong said to the fisherman: "The two of us can just row in by ourselves, and you don't need to send it." ”

The fisherman had no choice but to nod and said: "That junior is lazy, you should be careful when you go in, when you get upstream, the current seems to be gentle, but in fact, the undercurrent under the surface of the water is turbulent, and it is not fun to be accidentally swept into the bottom of the water." ”

Hong Qigong said with a smile: "Don't worry, this one's nickname is called the Golden Dragon King, and he is allowed to swim in the vast ocean, what is the mere stream?" ”

The fisherman wanted to say that although the brook was not as magnificent as the sea, the undercurrent was no less dangerous than the sea. But when he said this, it was a bit of a slap in the face, he could only hold back, and secretly prayed in his heart that nothing would happen, otherwise he would not be able to atone for his sins even if he lost his life.

His expression was so obvious that Wang Jinlong and Hong Qigong could see it, but no one paid attention to him, and went straight to the iron boat, and Wang Jinlong paddled towards the upper reaches of the stream. At first, the current was still very strong, but after two dangerous shoals, the current calmed down and even looked like it was standing still. The surrounding scenery is also more gorgeous, and it looks like a garden.

Wang Jinlong looked around and exclaimed: "It is worthy of Taoyuan County, and there is indeed a peach blossom source." Emperor Duan has a good eye and can find such a blessed land. ”

Hong Qigong had obviously been here before, but his eyes were still lingering on the surrounding scenery, and he said: "Even if Emperor Duan is a monk, some of his temperament can't be changed. Even if you want to live in seclusion, you have to find a good place. By the way, you should know, right? Now you can't call him Emperor Duan, you have to call him Master Yilan. ”

Wang Jinlong nodded and said, "I know, a lamp, this Dharma name is very Zen!" ”

As he spoke, Wang Jinlong's hand did not stop, and continued to row forward. Along the stream, it turned out to be in a cave. When I came out of the other side of the cave, I happened to see a large fountain, and a huge column of water gushed out of the stone hole, reaching more than two feet high, which was the source of this small stream.

Wang Jinlong and Hong Qigong went ashore, and when they looked back, the mist from the fountain formed a rainbow in the sunlight. The fountain gushes all year round, and the rainbow is always there whenever there is sun. That alone is a spectacle.

Before Wang Jinlong could see enough, a woodcutter came up and saluted the two. There is no need to introduce Wang Jinlong to know that the four disciples under the seat of Master Yideng are fishing and ploughing, guarding four levels respectively. The first one is the fisherman, and the second is the woodcutter.

The pass guarded by the woodcutter was not actually a dangerous pass, it was just a small valley, or a sinkhole, surrounded by cliffs. Except for the cave where the spring water flows, there is only a mountain vine hanging from the cliff.

Hong Qigong said hello to the woodcutter, and climbed the mountain vine with Wang Jinlong. Up to the top of the mountain, it is a gentle slope, the area is quite vast, just the farmland that has been reclaimed, there are more than 20 acres. A farmer was already waiting, with a cow in his hand.

The farmer didn't say much, and led the two of them down the mountain road to the end. Connecting the mountain path is a stone beam only a foot wide, spanning between the two peaks. I don't know if this stone beam is artificial or natural, if it is artificial, who can put dozens of tons of stone beams on the mountain peak? If it is natural, how are the stone beams formed? The terrain is truly breathtaking!

To walk along the stone beam, the timid are afraid that their legs will be weak just by looking at it. On both sides of the stone beam is an abyss, and if you fall down, no matter how high your martial arts are, you will be finished. Moreover, the stone beam is in the clouds and mist all year round, very slippery, and Wang Jinlong is unconsciously cautious. I secretly complained in my heart, this is almost the same as learning scriptures from the West, and Master Yilan is like a Buddha.
