Chapter 291: Northern Line Taoist Temple
"Daoist?"
The stall owner is a middle-aged man who looks honest, his dark skin and rough palms show that his life is not easy, and he grins in a strong Shiyan dialect, but fortunately, Chen Xing, as a native of Hubei, can also understand this dialect. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"In the top golden dome, as well as the other statues, there are basically Taoist priests. ”
Chen Xing knew that the Taoist priest this man was talking about was actually a staff member of the scenic spot, but he was just wearing Taoist clothes to coax tourists.
"I'm looking for a real Taoist priest, the kind who lives in the mountains all year round. Do you know where it is?"
"In the past few years, there were quite a lot of Taoist priests on this mountain, and in recent years, almost all of them have gone down the mountain. There aren't many left to live in the mountains. ”
"Then do you know where there are still Taoist priests living there?"
The middle-aged man thought for a while, pointed to the map in Chen Xing's hand, and then pointed to a few places that deviated from the normal route of the scenic spot: "You can go to these places to find it, if there are still Taoist priests living in the mountains, then only these places are possible." ”
Chen Xing's face showed joy, and after thanking him, he pulled Xia Xia to set off again.
And then this search is the time of the day.
That night, Chen Xinghe found a hotel in a small shop gathering point in the mountains and stayed there, so that he didn't have to go out into the wilderness.
Although the places marked by the middle-aged man for Chen Xing are not too remote places, they also deviate from the normal travel route and are scattered in various places in the scenic area. During the day, Chen Xing had already found a few, and they were indeed Taoist temples where Taoist priests lived, but they had already been desolate. Obviously, the Taoist priest on this mountain could not bear the poor life for a long time, and went down the mountain to make a living.
The next day, after breakfast. Chen Xing set off again with Summer, from the cool breeze in the morning to the scorching sun in the sky, and finally came to the last place marked on the map.
This place is in the middle of the northern line of Wudang Mountain, on a hill at the back of the Hidden Immortal Rock.
It is said to be a Taoist temple, but in fact it is just a dilapidated courtyard built on the top of a small hill.
The courtyard is in the style of a courtyard house and is surrounded by a fence to prevent people from falling. Even if you stand inside the courtyard wall, you can feel the cold wind blowing from all directions.
There is only one brick house directly east of the courtyard, which looks like it is inhabited. At the door of the brick house hung a bunch of sun-dried corn and a freshly washed robe from the door. The door was closed, and I didn't know if there was anyone inside.
Chen Xing patted Summer's hand and asked her to wait in place. When I walked to the door, I was about to knock on it, but the wooden door creaked open.
A handsome and stiff teenager stepped out of it. The young man had red lips and white teeth, and was wearing a shabby but clean and neat robe, and his hair was haphazardly tied up in a bun at the back of his head. It looks heroic, but those eyes are as calm and vicissitudes as they first met.
This young man is Zhiji.
He looked at the door, and when he saw Chen Xing, he was not surprised, but nodded to him, took off the clothes that had been dried outside the door, and put them back.
On the contrary, Chen Xing was stunned: "Do you know I'm coming?"
In the dimly lit room, I folded my clothes and put them at the head of the bed, and I didn't reply: "I have lived here for 20 years, every grass and tree, every brick and tile, and what direction of wind should blow at what hour, I know everything well, how can I not know when you two big living people enter the courtyard?"
Chen Xingcai was a little surprised at first, but when he thought that Zhiji could "read" the latter's experience in the scene from his master's body, the abnormality in front of him seemed to be nothing in comparison.
Even something as fantastical and grotesque as the will of the earth has already happened, what else is there to be surprised about?
Taoism, as a long-standing philosophical school that can even be called the cornerstone of Chinese culture, may indeed have some unusual features.
So, Chen Xing smiled and said, "Then do you know why I came to you?"
Zhiji shook his head: "I'm not an immortal, how do I know what you're doing?"
"Zhiji, it seems that you also have things that you don't know. Chen Xing laughed and was about to continue. Zhiji's face suddenly turned slightly pale, and the wind on the top of the mountain became a little cold: "How do you know my name?"
Chen Xing was stunned by the change in Zhiji, and then suddenly reacted: as a son of the earth, he had obtained a higher level of permission, and he could keep all his memories in the real world. But this is obviously not the case with Zhiji, after he returned to the real world, he was blurred by the will of the earth and his relevant memories, so he didn't remember his existence at all!
For a long time, Zhiji's impression on Chen Xing was relatively mysterious and seemed to know everything, so much so that Chen Xing forgot about this stubble for a while.
Presumably, it is precisely because of the mechanism of the vague memory of the earth's will that Zhiji dared to casually mention that he was a Taoist priest of Wudang Mountain in the scene. But he didn't expect Chen Xing to come to the door.
At this time, Zhiji's eyes were flat, but the momentum of his whole body had begun to heat up slowly. In his judgment, the only ones who can come to the door for no reason and say his name in one mouth are the other chosen ones in the scene space!
And Chen Xing's temperament is indeed not like ordinary people, so the identity of the person in front of him is extremely conclusive.
Zhiji was brewing with a dangerous aura all over his body, but he didn't act rashly. But Chen Xing's heart moved, and he whispered to himself: "Do you want to do it?" It just so happens that I also want to try what kind of progress you will have when you come out of the advanced scene. ”
"In the summer, you wait for me outside the yard first, and no matter what happens, don't look inside. ”
Chen Xing shouted at Summer. Although the latter didn't know what Chen Xing was going to do, he also listened to him with ease, and ran to the outside of the courtyard to squat in the corner.
Seeing that Xia had left, Chen Xing grinned and made a gesture: "Come on, Zhiji." Last time, let me see how much progress you have made?!"
In fact, if you calm down and communicate, Zhiji is not an impulsive person, and it is difficult for the two sides to meet each other. But Chen Xingyi wanted to try Zhiji's current strength, and second, he had a deeper idea that he wanted to give Zhiji a dismount!
In the martial arts scene before, he could be said to be extremely lucky to beat Zhiji away, and he also paid a very heavy price. In this way, Zhiji must be unconvinced, and this time, he will use absolute power to deter it, so as to facilitate the next better "exchange" and even future "cooperation"!
