Chapter 41 Buzhou Mountain
Sitting down at a table, I walked around and asked, "Old-timer, how can there be such a decent tavern here?" How did I never find out ......"
The white-bearded old man smiled and beckoned the shopkeeper to serve wine and food, and then, the shopkeeper came to him with a smile and a good wine and food, and said cordially: "There are very few people who can come here, young man, you drink more!" ”
Out of politeness, I hurriedly clasped my fists and saluted before I spoke: "Thank you big brother for taking care of me, by the way, senior, we ...... We're just here to drink? Is that what you just said fun? ”
The white-bearded old man held the wine jug in one hand, and then shook it, with a kind smile on his crane-haired and childish face, and said, "Of course, I'm afraid there will be no more fun thing in the world than drinking, hehe...... Little doll, I often come here to drink, not because the wine in this tavern is so expensive, on the contrary, their wine is free......"
In the last sentence, the white-bearded old man said it in a low voice, and he was very happy when he said it, as if he had taken a great advantage.
I smacked my lips, looked at the wine jug in the white-bearded old man's hand, and said with a wry smile: "Senior, where is the free wine going to be delicious?" I think this wine must have been mixed with water......"
The white-bearded old man shook his head with a smile, and picked up the cup and poured it, put it in front of my eyes, and said, "Smell it...... Isn't it fragrant? Hehe, this meal of wine is as if I invited you to drink, come, mine is also full. ”
Not to mention, this wine glass is not yet close, but the aroma of wine has come to the nose, it is really good wine, I hurriedly took the next glass, and then respectfully stepped forward: "Senior, just now thanks to your rescue, the younger generation toasts you with a glass, do it first!" ”
After speaking, I picked up the wine glass and drank it up, the wine went down, only to feel a trace of pure spirit all over the body, very comfortable, and then, the white-bearded old man poured me another glass, and said: "This wine, called'not drunk immortals', hehe, that is to say, only immortals will not get drunk when they drink it, mortals can be miserable, and it will be poured after three cups." ”
"Huh?" I was stunned, and said with a smile: "Don't hide it from the old-timers, don't look at the younger generations, but they have also drunk wine for many years, if you want to say that three glasses can make me drunk, I really don't believe it, hehe!" ”
After speaking, I poured a glass again, after drinking the second glass, I still felt refreshed, and not a little drunk, this time, I was a little suspicious that the old man with the white beard was boasting, this wine is a little more fragrant than the usual wine, but the concentration of alcohol is far from the point of getting drunk after three glasses, the old man with the white beard, must be bragging......
I smiled smugly, poured another glass, and when I saw the third glass, I grinned: "Senior, this is the third glass, if I am not drunk on this wine, then ...... Count yourself on bragging, hehe! ”
The white-bearded old man just smiled at me, filled the third glass of wine, and then placed the flask on the table, as if waiting for me to drink it.
I picked up my wine glass, laughed loudly, and said, "Senior, juniors respect you again!" ”
After speaking, I poured my head up, to say that this third glass of wine is down, I still don't have any drunkenness, but the sea of consciousness is slowly depressed, I can't help yawning, I am soft, and suddenly lie on the table, sleepiness comes up, even the gods can't stop it, I looked up slightly at the white-bearded old man, and squeezed out a smile with difficulty: "Old ...... Old-timer...... I'm not drunk...... Not...... Drunk ......"
"A dream of yellow sorghum and a pot of wine, little doll, sleep...... One sleep can solve eternal sorrows...... Hehe......"
The old voice gradually moved away from my sea of consciousness, and my eyelids gradually became too heavy to lift, and I finally lost consciousness in front of my eyes.
"It's ...... What is this place? How did I end up here? ”
Shaking my head, I opened my eyes to the foot of the mountain in front of me, and the stone steps that meander up to the sky, saying that it is the mountain in front of me, towering into the sky, and I can't see where the top of the mountain is.
I slapped my head suddenly, and I suddenly remembered, I was here......
"Yo! Little brother, you also want to go to the top of Buzhou Mountain to ask for immortal medicine? Hehe! It's really a hero out of a teenager, admire and admire! ”
Suddenly! When a woodcutter came to me, he smiled admiringly, and patted me on the shoulder, as if he was very appreciative of my trip.
My head was hot, and I looked up sharply, and I remembered...... I am indeed going to the top of Buzhou Mountain, seeking immortal medicine, legend Buzhou Mountain is the only passage to the heavenly realm, on the top of the mountain, there are many living immortals who cultivate into immortals, if I can get the immortal medicine on this trip, I can go home to treat the old mother's eye disease, the old mother has been blind for many years, the decoction is not good, her old man's only wish in this life is to be able to see things before she dies, even if you just take a look, now she is seriously ill in bed, time is short, the doctor said that the old mother's illness will last for more than half a month......
In order to fulfill the old mother's wish, I, as a son, will go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire, and I must also ask for the healing elixir!
"Little brother!"
I turned around, but saw him smiling and said, "Little brother, Buzhou Mountain only opens once every three years, and the time limit for each time is only seven days, otherwise you will have to wait for another three years!" I hope you go early and come back early, hehe! ”
I hurriedly nodded in response, and respectfully clenched my fists and said, "Thank you uncle!" ”
After speaking, I suddenly felt a little surprised, and looked down at the fist clenching of my hands, I ...... How could I be so polite? Looking down further, I was suddenly shocked, how did I put on a cyan robe, scratched my forehead, suddenly came back to my senses, smiled bitterly, and said, "That's the case, why am I talking like this?" ”
It's just that...... I have something else in my head, but unfortunately I can't figure out what it's all about for the time being, alas! No matter, it's important to go up the mountain first to get the elixir!
Quickly climb the stone steps, only to feel light and healthy, I smiled, so many years of hard work has not been in vain, but actually practiced a body of brute strength, no matter what, this time I must find a living immortal, save my old mother's eye disease......
After walking for a while, I suddenly saw an old woman leaning on the stone steps in front of me, the old woman was dressed in simple clothes, with gray hair, and carrying a small hemp basket in one hand, which was covered with a white cloth, and I didn't know what was inside, I stepped forward and asked softly, "Old woman, why are you sitting here?" ”
The old woman's face was a little haggard, as if she was tired from walking so many mountain roads, she looked up at me slightly, and then sighed lightly and said, "Alas...... People are old and useless, and they can't walk anymore after walking such a short road......"
I nodded slightly and said, "Old woman, where are you going?" Aren't you going to go up to the top of the mountain to ask for elixir? ”
The old woman immediately smiled bitterly and said, "Little brother, you are really joking, I am so old, how can I have the strength to climb to the top of the mountain...... I heard that my son became a bandit and robber on the halfway side of this Buzhou Mountain, think about it, he is only in his early twenties, and his body is weak when he is small, how can he do that kind of business, isn't it...... There was nothing left for him at home, and knowing that he was not doing well, I sold the house and land and sent him some money in exchange for some money...... Alas......"
As she spoke, the old woman supported her body to stand up, and I hurriedly stepped forward to help, thinking that the old woman was only halfway up the mountain, and I happened to be on the way, so it was better to ......
"Old woman, I'm going to the top of the mountain to ask for immortal medicine on this trip, and it just so happens that we are on the way, so I'll carry you for a ride."
After that, I picked up the old woman on my back, walked up step by step, and when I was tired halfway, I sat down to rest for a while, and looked around, but there was still no end in sight to the top of this Buzhou Mountain, and I didn't know how long I had to walk.
The old woman smiled kindly: "Little brother, why did you go to the top of the mountain to ask for immortal medicine?" It is said that the road on the top of the mountain was closed after seven days, and it would take another three years for it to open. ”
I smiled, and told the old mother that was critically ill, and the old woman came down with tears in her eyes, and said with tears in her eyes: "If you want to say that my uncompetitive son has half of your filial piety, I will be blind to death......"
"Old woman, let's keep going."
I said a few words to the old woman, I carried it again, the old woman carried the small hemp basket tightly along the way, for fear of accidentally falling on the ground and not being able to find it, I sighed for her son, why do you not know filial piety with such a good mother, alas!
"Phew!"
Suddenly, several black shadows appeared in the bushes on the hillside, all of them carrying wide-handled knives, and all of them were masked.
