Mountains and rivers meet Chapter 42 Morning and twilight, desolate
I don't know when Shen Kuo touched the mechanism again, and the door of the Xuantie Hall slowly rose without a sound.
The disciple who received the three of them took them to the residence, Jiulong Mountain was much "brighter" than Maoshan Mountain, and the three guest rooms had already been arranged, Hou Cengyan ignored the two, as if he was still angry.
Li Xiyang looked at the puffed up appearance of the charming woman, and said to the young man: "Chen Yuzhi, should you go and apologize to her, it is not a way to go on like this......
"The days of wandering in the rivers and lakes and living without a fixed place are not suitable for her after all, I am now on the wanted list of the Hidden Yuan Society, although I have escaped the shadow thorn, but I will definitely encounter danger in the future, I don't want to affect her. ”
Xiao Zamao knows the young man's thoughts, everyone can see it, can Hou Cen Yan not know? Since this woman plans to follow you, she has already put life and death out of the way, but the young man's implication is clearly rejecting this affection.
Chen Yuzhi shook his head, he hooked the shoulder of Maoshan Xiaodao, and said, "Let's not talk about this first, I have something to discuss with you!"
The two of them arrived in the room, just in case the partition wall had ears, and the young man said softly: "Little Zamao, I think Shen Kuo is a little strange, as if he wants to leave us in Jiulong Mountain......
Li Xiyang was puzzled: "How can you say this?"
"Pastor Liu told me that the relationship between Maoshan and Jiulong Mountain is very complicated, involving the grievances of several generations, it may be that I spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, but I still be careful!"
Xiao Zamao nodded, he also knew a little about those past events, but he didn't feel any hostility from Shen Kuo today, maybe this lord was also a generous person, and he had already forgotten the past. In other words, if the disciples of Jiulong Mountain visited Maoshan today, Xiao Keji would definitely treat him with courtesy.
Li Xi threatened: "If you come, you will be safe, everything will wait for Sang Zhi to find out the news for you!"
"That's all there is to it. ”
Ye Wanwan took the three of them to visit the wonders of Jiulong Mountain, this unruly girl has a lot of "prestige" in the mountain gate, and many disciples respect her. Chen Yuzhi is most interested in a Wutong trap bird, Ye Wanwan said that this thing is one of the treasures of Jiulong Mountain, driven by secret methods and living creatures, can soar for nine days and travel thousands of miles a day, several people once again admired the mechanism of Jiulong Mountain.
Two days passed in a hurry, Chen Yuzhi was studying the talisman in the room, the classic book given by Wu Xiangxiang recorded more than 30 kinds of talismans, the quiet woman had said that these talismans were created by her alone, Chen Yuzhi secretly praised it, although these talismans are not as strong as the thunder talisman, but each has its own use. If Li Daozi's talisman is a blade, then Wu Jianxiang's talisman is a shield, each with its own merits.
"Bang bang bang. ”
There was a knock on the door, Chen Yuzhi walked out quickly, Ye Wanwan pulled him out and said, "There is news under the mountain!"
The Holy Maiden's residence was not with the disciples, and she lived alone by the mountain and water, and on the way, Chen Yuzhi asked, "Girl, what is the difference between the Holy Maiden of Jiulong Mountain and ordinary disciples?"
Ye Wanwan looked around and said quietly: "Although this is not a secret, but the rules of the mountain gate prohibit the spread of the word, I can tell you, but you have to keep it secret!"
"Don't worry, I'm tight!"
"There was once a lady of heaven in Jiulong Mountain, and the bird and many ghost axes were created by her......! There is a cold spirit pool in the back mountain, the cold poison in the pool water is difficult for ordinary people to resist, only people with special physique can adapt, the saint drinks the cold spirit pool water all year round, the blood and the cold poison are fused, so as to drive away the organ. ”
Chen Yuzhi was amazed, the mechanism was originally a dead thing, and he didn't expect that he would need a special medicine to activate it, and he really wanted to see how amazing that senior was back then.
There are many wooden poles on the side of the cold spirit pool, and the red silk fluttering on them seems to be a touch of warmth in winter, which forms a sharp contrast with the cold pool.
The houses in Jiulong Mountain are all made of black wood and dark iron, and Ye Wanwan didn't knock on the door, and took the young man directly to break in. Sang Zhi had been waiting for a long time, she smiled at Chen Yuzhi and said, "There is news!"
Chen Yuzhi was afraid of hearing the bad news, his body trembled a little, if Shan Er and Shuang'er were in an accident, even if they were extremely poor all their lives, they would have to make Xiao Qiufeng pay the price.
Sang Zhiyan said: "The spies came to report, the battle of Jurong has spread in the rivers and lakes, and it can only be described as earth-shattering, and now Jurong is a mess." ”
"How are they, is there anything wrong?"
Looking at the young man's anxious expression, Sang Zhi didn't sell it anymore, and said: "The battle lasted until dawn, and the two of them blocked the Shadow Thorn at the cost of serious injuries, but fortunately no one was killed!"
Chen Yuzhi breathed a sigh of relief, and then clenched his fists again, this Xiao Qiufeng seriously injured Shan Er and Shuang'er's revenge, he will have to avenge sooner or later!
"The Hidden Yuan Society has always been mysterious, and has stood in the rivers and lakes for hundreds of years, and now the infighting in the door has caused an uproar, according to the grapevine rumors, the two were arrested and returned to the headquarters of the Hidden Yuan Society, and they will be punished in the future...... Chen Yuzhi, you have to be mentally prepared. ”
The young man gritted his teeth, and he wanted to kill in the Yinyuan Society to save people immediately, but now that he is lowly in cultivation, it is simply a fool's dream to rescue Shan Er and Shuang'er. Chen Yuzhi remembered Chen Yinzhen, if he could wake him up, he would definitely be able to help him save people......
Chen Yuzhi had a painful look on his face, when he was seriously injured by a mountain thunderstorm in Jurong Shenxiang that day, he didn't see him have such a demeanor, the saint sighed: "Chen Yuzhi, I understand your feelings, but no matter what you do at this time, it is in vain, you must stay calm, don't let down the price they paid to save you, and after the cultivation is improved in the coming day, it is the best policy to save people!"
Sang Zhi said very reasonably, how could the young man not know, but now the nine products are the end of his cultivation path, this is how he should face it! It is said that there is no endless road to the sky, but the young man has no way out, if he can never break through the nine products, how to rescue Shan Er and Shuang'er......
Chen Yuzhi didn't say much, turned around and left the holy woman's residence, and his lonely color was cold over the chill of late autumn. Sang Zhi and Ye Wanwan glanced at each other, and they both sighed, the young man's cultivation and realm far surpassed his peers, and the sword intent and thunder law were even more amazing, perhaps the young man was too outstanding, and the two girls felt that he had never competed with his peers, but had been competing with the pinnacle of the rivers and lakes, just like a shadow thorn.
Chen Yuzhi, who was dressed in a Taoist robe, sat on the stone steps in front of the Kowloon Hall, and sat for several hours, without moving.
Year after year, years have passed.
Morning and twilight, but no longer young.
Floating like a dream, I only wish the morning drum and dusk bell, and be safe.
The sunset caressed the mountain gate, the disciples gradually dispersed, and when they left, many female disciples turned back one step at a time, and Chen Yuzhi under the sunset was a little gloomy, but he was even more obsessed.
There was no one around, and the young man felt even more bitter in his heart. An old woman slowly walked to the stone steps, and the young man looked up and found that it was the old woman who had swept the floor in front of the mountain gate that day.
"Young man, I see you've been sitting here for a long time, have you encountered any troubles? It's getting dark, but don't catch a cold......
The old woman's cheeks were wrinkled, showing that the years were ruthless, and the young man smiled: "Thank you mother-in-law for your concern, the kid is indeed a little troubled, and he can't figure it out no matter how he thinks about it." ”
The young man felt that the old woman was a little kind, so he wanted to confide in the stranger the words that had been held in his heart for a long time.
"How can young people have so many troubles? Listen to my mother-in-law's words, everything in the world has a solution, don't let your mood slip!"
The old woman walked up the steps with a hunched back and slowly sat down beside the young man. Chen Yuzhi listened to what she said, and he could know that she was definitely not a simple old woman sweeping the floor.
The young man asked, "Mother-in-law, do you recognize Uncle Zeng Li?"
The old woman sighed, looked at the sunset with the fishtail exposed, and said: "He is a hard-working child, and he is stubborn, so many years have passed in the blink of an eye, and I don't know how he is in Maoshan......"
"He has defected from Maoshan and his whereabouts are now unknown. ”
The old woman smiled, and there was some self-deprecation in her smile, and she said: "That child is extremely talented, and if he takes the right path, he will definitely be able to achieve something." But fate can not be easily changed, I knew that he would not have a good result when he went to Maoshan. ”
"Mother-in-law, what happened between the saint Zeng Runqiu and Maoshan Qu Yu back then?"
"It's a long story...... Zeng Runqiu is the best saint in the past dynasties, and she is proficient in the art of organs, when she went down the mountain to experience and met Qu Yuan, the two had feelings for each other, and when they returned to the mountain gate, they were pregnant with Uncle Zeng Li. At that time, Jiulong Mountain wanted to marry Lao Jun Pavilion, and she had no choice but to make the matter of her six jia known to the world, and the lord at that time was Shen Kuo's master, and he strongly opposed the Holy Maiden's dealings with the people of Maoshan, so Zeng Runqiu was detained in Hanlingtan, and all news about her was blocked. If it weren't for the girl's death, I am afraid that Uncle Zeng Li would not be able to come to the world, but this child has a hard life, he was born with a lot of white eyes, and cynicism is even more commonplace, Zeng Runqiu was depressed, and suddenly went crazy one day, and passed away not long after that......"
The old woman's face was sad, as if she was hiding something, and Chen Yuzhi didn't ask about it, after all, this is the secret of Jiulong Mountain, and what is hidden underneath is obscure and unbearable, it has nothing to do with herself.
Chen Yuzhi asked: "Mother-in-law, is the grievance between Maoshan Mountain and Jiulong Mountain all caused by the general's order?"
The old woman smiled and said, "You little guy knows a lot!"
"I believe you have seen those ghostly workmanship, such as the trap bird, a hundred years ago there was a woman in Jiulong Mountain Tianzong Genius, who sacrificed the general order with her brother by chance, and the woman also had a bad relationship with the Maoshan Sect at that time, it is also a coincidence, the two mountains seem to have been spelled, and there are always inextricable fates, and they are constantly chopping...... The woman admired Maoshan Zhangjiao, but one day her brother went mad, as if he was bewitched by the spirit flag, he went down the mountain to wash Yangzhou, Maoshan Zhangjiao entered the WTO to suppress it, no matter how the woman persuaded her, she never showed mercy, and brought the general order back to Maoshan to seal, which is the beginning and end of the grievances between Jiulong Mountain and Maoshan. ”
Chen Yuzhi nodded, it is indeed not easy to choose between the common people and feelings.
The old woman slowly stood up, she slapped her back, and said, "So it's better for you to go down the mountain as soon as possible, Shen Kuo is not a kind-hearted person!"
The old woman slowly disappeared into the night, and the young man was afraid of causing trouble, so he decided to leave Jiulong Mountain tomorrow.
