I buried Granny Wu in the ancestral cemetery in Shanqian Village, next to her wife's grave, and the dispute in the world of Daomen involved an innocent old man, and she saw that the children in the same village were bitten by jackals and were about to die, so she took out the medicine I gave, which in itself is not wrong. And Wang Xiaohai is dead, so I will avenge this revenge.

I put on the shoes with mille-feuille soles that Granny Wu sewed for me, and returned to the Qingyun Sect in the light of the starry night, and when I walked to the front of the mountain gate, two disciples guarding the gate stopped me, I took out the silver token given by Elder Jin, the steward of the outer gate, and after the two of them saw it, I let me pass, I walked up to one of the disciples and asked, "Do you think I am familiar with me?" ”

The disciple said, "It's a little familiar, are you?" ”

I said, "I'm the one who has a little lame foot, the one who works in the water storage room and wears a big padded jacket." ”

"Oh, it turned out to be you, how did you become ......"

Bang! Bang!

I hit this gatekeeper disciple in the face with two fists, so that his words came to an abrupt end, and his eyes immediately swelled and turned blue, and then I put my knee on his abdomen and said, "When I see me in the future, I will call him senior brother, and don't talk nonsense, otherwise I will beat you once I see you." ”

The other disciple was dumbfounded and watched me walk away.

At noon the next day, I went to the Scripture Pavilion with the wine I had snatched from the miscellaneous room, and I saw the sloppy old man lying alone in the open space at the door basking in the sun. ”

I said, "I haven't asked for the honorific name of my predecessor for a long time. ”

The sloppy old man said: "My name is Li Changan, why did you suddenly remember to ask my name today." ”

I said: "If you have a good name, I will call you Li Lao in the future, and I will not wronged you." ”

The sloppy old man said with a smile: "You kid, you have a straight temperament, it is inevitable that you will be disliked by others, and I can't help with that old woman's affairs." ”

I said: "I can't complain about Elder Li for this matter, Granny Wu is not dead, Elder Hong and they will not give up, fortunately, Granny Wu understands the righteousness, but it is a pity that I lied to her and told her that her son is still alive." ”

Li Lao took me to the stone table next to me and sat down, took out two stone bowls, filled each with a cup and said: "When I entered the Taoist Gate, I was also sentimental, at that time I always wondered why I didn't mess with others, but others always came to mess with me, and then when I came to the inner door, no one dared to mess with me, but there were other greater troubles." ”

I clinked glasses with Li Lao and made a bowl, Li Lao continued: "Mu Xiu is in the forest, the wind will destroy it, I think you also understand this truth, the cause of this disaster is because of your medicine, everyone knows this matter, you kindly gave the medicine to Granny Wu, no matter how he uses it, after all, it is a leak of your secret, the world of Taoism, your own secret is better to rot in the stomach, otherwise your kindness will only make others die earlier, which is why some things cannot be told to others, once that person knows, There will be life-threatening reasons. ”

Li Lao and I each made a few more bowls, Li Lao's face was slightly red, and he said: "Okay, I'll drink it here today, I will bring Lao Jin to taste half a jar tomorrow, and two days later it will be the day when eight thousand outer disciples go out to collect medicine, you had better prepare, saving your life is the most important thing." ”

I said goodbye to Elder Li, and then went to Elder Jin's Dao Tong to get the list of the top ten in the outer gate.

After I got the list, I saw the details of them, including what kind of exercises they practiced, and immediately burned them.

The day soon came, and two days later, in the morning, I went out of the mountain gate with the large army of outer disciples, and under the leadership of Elder Hong and others, I marched mightily towards the depths of the Qinling Mountains.

The sect gave everyone the alchemy materials of the Qi Gathering Pill, and also cited some incomparably valuable medicinal materials, the hundred-year-old ginseng is impressively among them, and there are a few holy medicines, anyone who finds the holy medicine must be handed over to the sect, as a descendant, everyone has a high bounty, and the magic weapon of the practice is taken at will.

We walked for half a day, climbed five or six mountains, and came to a mountain range full of white snow.

Elder Hong motioned for everyone to stop, and then pointed to the mountain range in front of him and said: "All Qingyun disciples have listened, this mountain in front of you is one of the main peaks of Hengduan Mountain, on which is snow that has not melted for thousands of years, it is winter now, and it is snowing on the mountain, but after turning over this mountain, there is a medicine valley that is like spring all year round, there is the boundary of 100,000 mountains, you can dig ginseng on the snow mountain, find cold medicine, you can also cross the snow mountain to find treasure medicine in the medicine valley, and you will return here one after another in three days, do you hear?" ”

"I heard you!" Everyone asked in unison.

Elder Hong divided the eight thousand disciples into dozens of squads, and I was assigned to Xiong Wanjun's group, Xiong Wanjun's group was about fifty people, including Zhang Zhao and two fat and thin stewards of the miscellaneous room.

The corners of my mouth were raised, and I marched towards the snow-capped mountain with the medicine basket on my back with everyone, and when I reached the bottom of the snow-capped mountain, Xiong Wanjun turned around and said, "Let's take another roll call before entering the mountain, lest someone be innocently missing when the time comes." ”

Zhang Zhao said: "No need to order, some people have disappeared." ”

Everyone followed Zhang Zhao's gaze and saw a bamboo basket on the snow, and Zhang Zhao said angrily: "This grandson actually ran away!" ”

"When did Yang Hao run?" Xiong Wanjun was also indignant when he heard the news.

"I don't know, I saw him just now, and suddenly disappeared." One of the teenagers said.

"I thought it was a three-headed and six-armed character, and it was necessary to gather three of the top ten people in front of our outer door to deal with it, and it was really boring to run away like this, you guys play by yourself, I don't have time to mess around with you, you will drag me back." A fair-skinned young man said, smirking at the corner of his mouth, revealing a sharp tiger tooth that looked full of evil energy.

The other man was carrying a bamboo basket on his back and humming a huge scroll on his body, which looked like a painting, and he also walked out of the crowd and said, "I don't have time to walk with you people, a bunch of wine bags and rice bags." ”

Xiong Wanjun's face was embarrassed, he snorted and said: "Two things without rules, just go if you like to go, it's best not to encounter any danger, we will definitely not come to the rescue." ”

Everyone marched towards the snow-capped mountain, looking from a distance, it looked like ants covering the white hills, and everywhere they passed, various medicinal materials such as ginseng, deer antler velvet, snow and ganoderma lucidum on the mountain were dug up by the roots.

Elder Hong looked at the two Dao boys beside him and said, "It looks like you want to go too, right?" ”

Senior Brother Pony said: "Master, we are all thirteen years old now, and we have been here with you not ten times but eight times, this time we can finally cross the snow mountain to the medicine valley, so let the apprentice pick a holy medicine for the master and come back, and honor you, master." ”

Elder Hong nodded and said, "Okay, well, since you are so filial, then go, the teacher is here to wait for your news, but you have to be careful in everything, if there is any danger, you must send a signal, and the teacher will rush over soon." ”

"Don't worry, master, our cultivation is already in the late stage of the Purple Qi Donglai Realm, not much worse than the junior brother." Another Taoist boy said.

The two Taoist children looked at each other and smiled, and ran towards the snowy mountain together.

Elder Hong looked at the two miscellaneous room stewards in the stewardship group, one fat and one thin, and said, "You guys also go with you, take care of my two apprentices, and don't let them have trouble." ”

"Huh?" The fat steward was a little reluctant. "We're in charge."

Elder Hong said, "Not now, follow them now!" If they are missing a hair, I will ask you! ”

The two stewards, one fat and one thin, glanced at each other, looked embarrassed, and had to catch up with the two Taoist boys from a distance.

The army of 8,000 outer disciples swept the snow-capped mountains, and the place where they passed was a mess, and many medicinal materials that were old were dug up, I stood on the highest peak of the snow-capped mountain, watching everyone's march from a distance, and a sharp-eyed disciple looked at the top of the mountain peak and said, "Why is there someone there looking at us?" ”

Hearing this, everyone looked up, and then said: "You're dazzled, how can anyone run so fast, don't tell me that there is a snowman on this snowy mountain." ”

I first saw Elder Hong's two Dao boys at the back of the crowd, as well as the steward of the miscellaneous room who followed them from a distance.

It was already afternoon when I crossed five or six mountains from the Qingyun Sect to the snow-capped mountains, if it was before, I couldn't walk so many roads for three days and three nights, but now my face is not red and I don't breathe, and after nightfall, some of the people continue to move forward, hoping to dig up the best medicinal materials, and some people will spread out the tents they bring with them and spend the night in the tents, and some will find a cave to spend the night.

In the wind and snow, the two stewards of the miscellaneous room have been following behind the two Taoist boys, and the fat steward said: "Let's not follow them, we will be scolded if we are discovered, anyway, their skills are too high for us, and there will be no danger." ”

The thin steward nodded and said, "Elder Hong is really not a thing, he just wants us to take care of the lives of his apprentices, they are all cultivators, and they will not die of hunger for three days." ”

The fat steward sneezed from the cold, and the thin steward said, "The snow is getting heavier and heavier, and we didn't bring much warm clothes when we came, so let's find a cave to hide in first." ”

Half an hour later, two stewards, one fat and one thin, hid in a cave and roasted a fire, on which was a fat and plump snow rabbit.

My figure appeared at the door of the cave, holding a knife in his hand, and the two of them suddenly saw me appear, and they were so frightened that they were scared, and the thin steward said: "Yang Hao, why are you here, you listen to me explain what happened that day, our two brothers were forced, we didn't mean to frame you, let alone hurt the old woman." ”

"You have all testified that I wrote to the village in front of the mountain, so you don't have to say much." I said as I threw the knife in my hand in front of them. "Before I finish eating this hare, you decide who lives and who dies, and if I finish eating the hare and you don't do anything, both will die."

The two stewards, one fat and one thin, knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, but I ignored them, took off the crispy and golden hare, and tore off the rabbit meat and chewed it in my mouth as I chased after it. Seeing that the hare in my hand had already eaten half of it, the fat steward suddenly picked up the knife on the ground and said, "I'm sorry brother, none of us can survive without killing you." ”

The fat steward was holding a knife in his hand, and before he could stab it out, the thin steward took out a knife from behind and stabbed it in the neck.

His eyes widened and he died in front of the two of us, and the thin steward looked at me tremblingly and said, "Can I go?" ”

I licked my fingers and said, "I'm sorry, I'm done." ”

I waved my hand suddenly, and the knife in the fat steward's hand appeared in my hand in an arc, and I got up and walked out of the cave, the thin steward's eyes widened, and his neck was broken at the shoulder.
