Chapter Twenty-Four: Mountain Spirits Build Ancient Trees

The morning breeze in Wangyuan was slightly cool, Wang Lianqing followed behind Old Man Su and entered the study with him. He didn't eat breakfast and rushed over, and had breakfast with the old man, who took him to the study. The old man took two books from the table, handed them to him, and said: "Learn martial arts to be a prophet, you take these two books back first, read them slowly, one is "Jianghu Chronicles", the other is "Luo Jing", you must read it clearly, carefully, remember to come back and inform me after reading it, especially "Luo Jing" must be remembered clearly. ”

Wang Lianqing looked at the two yellow books in his hand and replied, "Yes, grandpa." ”

Old Man Su nodded, and Wang Lianqing retired.

On the corridor of the Dongyuan attic, Wang Lianqing leaned on a chair, slowly opened the two books, and read them carefully.

Ah Xiu made tea and put it on the table, seeing that his young master was so serious, he didn't bother him, and waited on the side. Wang Lianqing read the meeting and understood the content of the two books, the book "Jianghu Chronicles" talked about some strange people and strange things in the rivers and lakes, geographical circles, and some rivers and lakes, Wang Lianqing read the book and knew that in addition to the Jinyang Dynasty and the surrounding capitals, there were equivalent forces, but the locations were far apart, there was no intersection of interests, and they did not often come and go, and the "Luojing" Tells about the major meridians of the human body, acupoints, and organs, etc., and describes in detail the blood and qi around the human body and the influence of only seeing, the so-called pull a whole body, learning martial arts is naturally to avoid its edge, hurt its vital point, and some of the dead points of the human body of course can not let the opponent hurt, and the practice of all martial arts should also be clear about the operation of the internal force, improper practice, will make people go mad, light will be low realm, heavy crippled to death, can not be lazy, only clearly remember the meridians and major points of the human body, supplemented by the correct practice method, seek gradually, martial arts attainments will eventually be successful。

Wang Lianqing spent a morning reading the "Chronicles of the Rivers and Lakes", learned about some of the sects on the rivers and lakes, and some general directions, and also learned that there are famous knights or thieves on the rivers and lakes, knowing that some of these are made up, and some are real, after all, the old man also said that there are also people in the sky, just like he thought that the chivalrous men and thieves in the rivers and lakes that the storyteller talked about, the big thieves and bandits, were all made up blindly, until he saw it with his own eyes, he really understood that not seeing it does not necessarily mean that he does not exist.

The book "Luo Jing" tells a lot of key points in the human body, he can't remember it for a while, he has to remember it slowly, he just read it roughly, and he can't come in a hurry.

Wang Lianqing, who had eaten lunch, couldn't read the book given by the old man, and was so idle that he panicked. Seeing that his young master was bored and had nothing to do, Ah Xiu knew that he was idle.

"Young master, bored?"

"yes, yes"

"Going shopping?"

"Where?"

"Garden, or outside the house?"

Wang Lianqing stood up, looked at A Xiuyan and said, "Let's go, go shopping on the street." ”

Ah Xiu nodded, Wang Lianqing walked outside the door, and Ah Xiu followed behind, walking towards the outside of the courtyard.

The guard guarding the gate saw Wang Lianqing go out, greeted him, Wang Lianqing replied, and the two went out.

Standing on the street outside the mansion, Wang Lianqing didn't know where to go, and asked Ah Xiu: "Is there a place you want to go?"

"Nope. ”

Wang Lianqing shook his head and sighed.

I heard Ah Xiu's voice again: "Childe, I heard that the Bodu Temple in the ancient Banyan Mountain in the south of the city is very spiritual, and the scenery is also very beautiful, let's go burn pillar incense?"

"That's fine, there's nowhere to go anyway, that's right. ”

The two hired two sedan chairs at the street entrance, one person each, the sedan chair driver sent them to the ancient banyan mountain in the south of the city, Wang Lianqing instructed the four sedan chair men, waiting for them at the bottom of the mountain, today's sedan chair work does not have to take over, burst their satisfaction, several sedan chair men are happy, no need to work can still be the same work, agreed to wait here, Wang Lianqing and A Xiu went up the mountain.

There were two forks in the road in the middle of the mountain, and Wang Lianqing asked as if he was indecided: "Ah Xiu, have you been here?"

"Nope. ”

"And where do you say we're going?"

"I listen to the young master. ”

......

......

In the study of the old man Su in Wangyuan, Su Ruwen stood in front of the bookcase, looking at the old man who was writing with a pen on the bookcase without saying a word, the old man's pen walked around, collected the pen of the last word on the paper, put down the pen in his hand, looked at Su Ruwen who was standing there and asked, "Is there something?"

"Dad, the ten-year period is almost up. ”

"yes, it's only been more than three months. The old man nodded.

"Do you need to make any arrangements?" asked Su Ruwen.

"No, just show me the sign. The old man nodded.

"Yesterday I went to Dongshan and met with my second uncle to make sure that there was no mistake in the brand. ”

"Well, the second child is still relieved to me, but he is stubborn, and it was not all his fault back then, the master said before, we are all at this age, and this temper can't be changed. ”

"Fortunately, it didn't make a big mistake, otherwise with the temperament of the second uncle, it is estimated that he would apologize for his sins with death. ”

"Second child, hey, I still haven't taken good care of him, and I don't have a daughter under my knees, thinking about it like this, decades have passed, since I went down the mountain with him, he has never wanted to marry a wife, with deep affection, but unfortunately everything is different, it is fate. ”

"Dad, we never heard you talk about the second uncle's past, what is the reason, the second uncle no longer cares about this marriage. ”

"Forty years must have passed. At that time, we were still going up the mountain, your second uncle liked a fellow sister, but the junior sister was quite qualified, and the elders in the door were included in the door, and your second uncle and I were not allowed to have such a chance, the two were very different, and then went down the mountain, he was depressed and devoted himself to practicing martial arts, and now his realm has surpassed me. ”

"It was the same as ever. ”

Old Man Su nodded, remembered something again, and said: "In the past few months, be careful to protect the safety of the clansmen, those gangsters don't know what the situation is, be careful of their tricks behind their backs." ”

"Yes Dad, from now on, I will send more people to protect each room in case of emergency. Su Ruwu replied.

"That's it. The old man nodded.

"Well, the boy said goodbye. After saying that, he went out and left.

On the mountain road of Gurong Mountain, Wang Lianqing, who was holding the mountain wall, wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and said to Ah Xiu behind: "Your young master probably chose the wrong path, you have to listen to him, regret it." ”

Ah Xiu's face was flushed, maybe he was a little tired from climbing the mountain, and said breathlessly: "Who knew that my young master was unlucky, but I was not disappointed to regret it." ”

"Ah Xiu, your son-in-law is getting more and more fond of listening to what you say. ”

I only heard the girl's giggle behind me.

Go up the stone steps along the mountain road, there are all kinds of insects and birds in the mountain forest, the mountain wind blows, cool and comfortable, go back to dozens of steps, Wang Lianqing and A Xiu found a pavilion on the mountainside, the two of them thought that they finally found a place to settle down and rest, and their hearts were beautiful.

Wang Lianqing sat on the pavilion diagonally, looked at Ah Xiu who was sitting opposite, and smiled slightly. I thought to myself that this girl was blushing like something, but it was still very good-looking. Ah Xiu looked at Wang Lianqing and smiled at him, Ah Xiu deliberately said angrily: "Young master, does Ah Xiu have flowers on his face? ”

"There are no flowers, but they are more beautiful than flowers. ”

"Flim Flam. Ah Xiu stuck out his tongue at Wang Lianqing, and Wang Lianqing smiled to himself.

After resting for a while, Wang Lianqing stood up, the breeze was blowing, and his clothes were fluttering. Looking at the bottom of the mountain, the trees gradually rise, pick up the eyes, only to see that not far away is the prosperous Jin capital city, you can see in the distance, the red wall and yellow tile in the Jin capital city, the royal courtyard of the golden palace gate, quietly fall in the hustle and bustle of the city, unique, Wang Lianqing did not find the Su family, the layout of the major courtyards is quite similar, looking from the mountain, only to really realize that the Jin capital is really big.

"Ah Xiu, why is this called Gurong Mountain?"

"I heard that there are several hundred-year-old banyan trees in front of the temple, and some people call them that, but I just heard about it. ”

"Oh, it's really a mountain spirit making ancient trees. ”
