Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Mountain Gate
Raise your eyes and look into the distance, there are clouds and mist in the distance!
Between the clouds, the looming peaks of the mountains change into all sorts of interesting gestures, sometimes like a fluttering fairy, sometimes like an old man with a staff, sometimes like an ape offering a peach, sometimes like a wild horse on the loose...... In the mist of the early morning, looming, sometimes far and near.
Although the path chosen by He Wude and He Laibao did disagree at first, no one expected that they would eventually meet somewhere.
Although they have not returned to Hengshan for 40 years, this place will never be forgotten in their hearts.
After a few days of walking, at first He Yiming thought that Yuan Lixun's feet were slow, so the second elder deliberately slowed down to take care of it. But as the goal continued to approach, He Yiming realized that the two old men were actually very worried in their hearts.
It's not fear, it's excitement, a very indescribable feeling.
In Taicang County, they kept saying that they wanted to return to Hengshan, to surprise those who had mocked them forty years ago that they would never be able to return to their sect, and that they would pick up the insulting words they had uttered in the past and swallow them.
However, when they really approached Yokoyama, they couldn't help but feel timid.
At this moment, the two old men looked at a huge rolling mountain peak in the distance, and the expressions in their eyes were already extremely complicated.
He Yiming looked at them and finally asked, "Grandpa, have we arrived?"
He Wude let out a long sigh and said, "That's right, we've arrived." As if he had just woken up from some strong emotion, he perked up and said aloud, "Let's go." ”
He Laibao also laughed and said, "Let's go." ”
The two old men strode forward, their bodies as straight as javelins, and under their constantly swinging feet, there seemed to be an extremely powerful force.
He Yiming looked at the two of them in surprise, at this moment, although there were only two of them, it made He Yiming suddenly have a heroic, as if they were thousands of troops.
This kind of feeling should never have appeared in the body of an acquired cultivator, but at this moment, He Yiming clearly sensed that because of their intense, unprecedented emotional fluctuations, they actually underwent a magical change with a certain force from the outside world that He Yiming did not expect at all.
In his mind, a crazy scene of thousands of galloping horses suddenly appeared. Although the momentum exuded by the second elder is far from reaching that realm, it has a vague prototype.
He Yiming let out a long sigh, his eyes shining, and in his heart, he seemed to have touched some kind of key.
But unfortunately, this feeling is just a fleeting moment, and it has disappeared in an instant, and it has become unpredictable again.
"Young Master, what's wrong with you?" asked Yuan Lixun in a low voice.
There was already a vague sense of heart-to-heart connection between her and He Yiming, and just by relying on his subtle reaction, she knew that he didn't seem to be in a very good mood at the moment.
He Yiming showed her a smile, also lowered his voice, and said, "It's okay, I just remembered a certain exercise, but unfortunately I haven't realized it yet." ”
Yuan Lixun comforted: "Young master, I believe that you will definitely understand." ”
He Yiming nodded heavily, his eyes full of strong confidence.
The two of them held hands and walked forward side by side.

The mountain peak seemed to be close at hand, but when everyone walked over, they found that the journey was not short.
Half a day later, Ega Vud and his feet came to the bottom of the mountain.
The scenery here doesn't seem to be any different from other places, but He Yiming found a path in the mountains and forests.
This road is more obvious, and it is clearly stepped out of the mountain road by countless people after being trampled for an unknown number of years.
Coming to this road, the two old men became more and more excited.
It's just that if you look at it from the outside, their faces are extremely calm. If He Yiming didn't know them very well and followed them all the way, he might not really be able to feel the stormy feeling in their hearts at the moment.
He Wude paused on the trail for a moment, then leaned down and took a deep breath on a wildflower on the side of the road.
He closed his eyes, and at this moment, it seemed that his whole mind had sunk into it, and he was enjoying the fragrance of this wildflower with all his heart, as if it had appeared here at the calmest moment of his life.
He Yiming's eyes lit up, and when he saw this scene, he actually had a feeling in his heart that he had seen a peerless painting.
On the body of the old man He Wude, there was a feeling that he had become one with this heaven and earth.
It seems that he is between this piece of heaven and earth, and if he is removed, then a black hole will appear in this piece of heaven and earth, and it will become incongruous again.
He Yiming was amazed in his heart, the old man was obviously not a cultivator of the innate realm, but at the moment when he approached Hengshan, he successively showed a certain magical power that only an innate powerhouse could show.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, He Yiming really couldn't believe it.
He looked at his grandfather quietly, as if he had learned something from his old man.
It's a pure feeling, an indescribable feeling. Not only could he not describe it in words, but even he himself did not know what it was.
It's just that he has a feeling that if he can really comprehend this power, then it will be an incomparably huge help for his cultivation in the martial arts.
The old man stood abruptly, glanced ahead, and set out on his way again.
Since the moment he stood up, the magical feeling of merging into heaven and earth had disappeared, He Yiming frowned slightly, and couldn't help but choke at it.
This is a very rare opportunity, not only for him, but also for his grandfather.
If he could enter this realm from time to time, then even if he was not a cultivator of the two lines of initiation, I am afraid that there would be a possibility of advanced innate progress.
It's just that this kind of realm is purely an accidental product, and if an acquired cultivator wants to enter it, where is it so easy. The probability of this matter is so low, I'm afraid it is a few points lower than the epiphany of the innate powerhouse.
※※※※
The mountain on which Hovud had advanced was the tallest of the nearby peaks.
Halfway up the mountain, the road ahead suddenly widened, and neat stone steps suddenly appeared in front of everyone's eyes after a bend.
If the road behind is a rugged path in the mountains, then the road in front of you is the real bright road.
Looking up, there seems to be no end in sight on this road.
He Yiming sighed in his heart, worthy of being a sect that has been inherited for more than 3,000 years, and was able to establish such a grand project in the deep mountains and old forests.
I really don't know how they do it in this environment. Could it be that the whole faction is rushing up and down, and there is no need to cultivate?
Just as He Yiming was looking into the distance, he saw a flash of light above, and then a sharp and piercing scream suddenly flew in.
A long silver arrow whistled from the side of the road, from above and down.
The arrow was so powerful, but it was not aimed at them, but landed steadily on the stone steps ten meters away from them.
"It's about the same as the eldest brother, with eight layers of internal strength. He Yiming's voice came suddenly, his voice was not high, but it happened to be heard by the two old men in front of him.
He Wude and the others were slightly stunned, and then they saw a person rushing down the mountain.
This man came to a stop in front of the silver arrow ten meters away from them, this is a young man in his grade of about twenty-five, his body is slender and straight, his face is cold, his black eyebrows are like the wings of a mountain eagle, and his tall eyebrows are slightly pressed down, and two cold rays of cold light piercing the bone marrow shoot out from the deep eye sockets.
After seeing He Yiming and the others, this person also muttered in his heart. Among the group, there were either old men or women, the only young man, but it seemed that he was a little too young in appearance.
He was cautious, but at this moment, he couldn't guess what these people meant. However, in his memory, he seemed to have never seen these people, so he said with a cold face: "Everyone, this is the important place of Hengshan. If you came here by accident, please come back. ”
He Wude looked at this person and smiled at He Laibao, they finally understood what He Yiming's words meant.
This person's grade is similar to that of one day, and he even has the cultivation of the eighth layer of internal strength, even if he is in Hengshan, he is definitely the best among the younger generation.
It's just that there is a trace of astonishment in their eyes, when He Yiming said this, this person has never come out at all, so how did he deduce this person's grade and cultivation?
However, they didn't know that He Yiming didn't have a clairvoyant eye, but he had a tailwind ear skill that even the clairvoyant eye might not be able to match. Moreover, except for the innate masters of the wind system, even if the rest of the innate powerhouses wanted to learn this miraculous secret art, it would be difficult to do so.
He Wude reined in his mind and said with a pleasant face: "Young man, we didn't take the wrong road, but made a special trip to Hengshan. ”
The young man's face changed suddenly, and his feet were slightly separated by a little distance.
It was just such a slight change, and a powerful evil qi suddenly surged up on his body, accompanied by this gentle mountain wind.
He Wude's old face did not have the slightest look of annoyance, and when he saw the outstanding young disciples under the Hengshan Sect, instead of the slightest sense of jealousy, a sense of pride arose spontaneously.
Look, this is under the Yokoyama Gate......
It seemed that he felt the kindness from He Wude, and the young man's face gradually eased, although he still maintained a vigilant expression, but the evil qi on his body had weakened a lot.
He Wude nodded slightly and said, "Young man, we have no malicious intentions, we just came to ask to see the medicine Dao people of the Elixir Peak. ”
The man's expression that had just eased suddenly became tense again, he closed his lips tightly, and the momentum on his body increased again, and this time, the evil qi on his body was much stronger than before.
Yuan Lixun's body trembled slightly, and his body was faintly chilled by the impact of this evil qi. He Yiming's brows furrowed slightly, his robe waved slightly, and suddenly a momentum permeated the air. However, his momentum was only hovering around himself and Yuan Lixun, and after encountering the other party's evil qi, it was like a soft wall made of clouds and mist, gently pushing it away, not showing any mountain dew at all, and not even letting the other party notice it.
Being able to use his true qi to this extent shows that his mastery of clouds and mist has truly reached the point of doing whatever he wants, and there is no longer the slightest hindrance.
The man's face gradually became solemn, although he was not panicked, but he was obviously retreating.
All four of them looked to be old and weak women, and the only male was significantly younger than him.
However, under the pressure of the momentum he had gathered to the apex, these people turned out to be indifferent, as if they didn't feel the powerful momentum from him, an eighth-layer master of internal strength.
At this moment, he suddenly understood that these four people were very strong, at least their internal strength cultivation would not be slightly worse than his own.
He took a deep breath and said, "Everyone has come from afar, and it stands to reason that they should not be hindered below. But at this moment, the medicine Taoist Tai Patriarch of the Elixir Peak is refining the elixir, and he is afraid that he will have no time to meet guests. ”
He Wude was slightly stunned, and he thought about it for a moment in his heart, although among the Heng Mountain, there were three other peaks, which were inhabited by the other two elders and the most powerful Supreme Elder.
But He Wude didn't want to bother them at all. After all, the reason why he was expelled from Hengshan in the past was because of the insistence of those elders, if it weren't for the medicine Dao people's efforts to protect it, I was afraid that his kung fu would have to stay here.
After pondering for a moment, he finally said, "Young man, is He Wu from the Elixir Peak here?"
The young man was stunned for a moment, and there was a hint of respect in his expression: "Senior, do you recognize Master He?"
A hint of remembrance appeared in He Wude's eyes, and he said, "I have known him for more than seventy years. ”
The young man's face changed suddenly, the evil aura on his body disappeared, and there was a trace of embarrassment on his face, and he said, "Senior, since you know Master He, then please sit in the pavilion in the middle of the mountain for a while, and let me go and make a bow?"
He Wudeqi said: "Isn't the welcome pavilion in the middle of the mountain already broken, has it been built again in the past few decades?"
When the young man heard this, he was finally convinced that the other party was not talking about it, and said with a smile: "Senior, the Welcome Pavilion was indeed destroyed when the younger generation was a child, but ten years ago, it was rebuilt on the order of the Lian Tai Patriarch of Fenghuo Peak. ”
He Wude nodded slightly, and in the company of this person, everyone walked up the stairs, but in a moment, they had already come to a pavilion where the corner was located.
This pavilion is simple and generous, spacious and transparent, although it is not luxurious, but it has a sense of atmosphere and awe.
Along the way, He Yiming and the others already knew that this person was a great-disciple grandson of Elder Lianyi of Hengshan Yimai, Fenghuo Peak. It's called Zibo Bay. If it is based on He Wude's generation, he and He Yitian and He Yiming are considered brothers of the same generation.
It's just that He Yiming is already a master of the innate realm, even if he joins the Hengshan lineage, he is also a figure on a par with the three elders, so naturally he is far from being able to match him.
The people in the pavilion actually have a place dedicated to boiling water and tea, and the pot of water on the shelf has long been boiling.
Zibo Wan served them tea, and said with a little embarrassment: "There should be at least two people guarding here, but in the past ten years, there have been very few guests who have actually come here. So there is usually only one person, so please don't blame you for the neglect. ”
He Wude waved his hand and said, "Young man, you're polite, we're here from afar, and we're already very satisfied with having a cup of tea." ”
Zi Bowan bowed slightly and said, "Dare to ask the seniors to sound the horn, and the juniors will go to report to Master He." ”
He Wude groaned: "If you tell him, you will say that Wude is here." ”
Zibo Wan seemed to be surprised, but in the end, he bowed down and flew away.
He Yiming saw him go away, and asked in surprise: "Grandpa, the name of that He Wujin senior is very similar to yours." ”
He Wude sighed lightly and said, "Wu Jin, like me, is an orphan adopted by his mentor since he was a child, and he is also a partner who has been a medicine boy since he was a child. It's the closest person to me in our lineage. ”
He Yiming came to his senses and asked suddenly, "Grandpa, where did our family's surname come from?"
"Of course, it's with the teacher's surname. He Wude said angrily: "The teacher's original surname is He, but he has been in charge of the elixir peak in Hengshan for many years, so he will call himself a medicine Taoist in the future." ”
He Yiming nodded slowly, he finally understood.
Why did his grandfather linger on Yokoyama and never forget it, it turned out that what he was thinking about was the master of medicine who adopted him since he was a child, raised him, and awarded martial arts skills.
Although He Yiming had not seen this medicine man at the moment, he was already very grateful in his heart.
If it weren't for this medicine man, then He Wude might have died a long time ago, and he would not have been born.
The four of them meditated here, He Yiming and Yuan Lixun didn't have anything, but the two old people felt a little like they were sitting on pins and needles.
If outsiders are present, they can still stay calm, but when outsiders leave, it is difficult for them to suppress the complicated feelings in their hearts.
After a while, He Laibao stood up, he walked slowly a few steps in the pavilion, and with his tenth-level cultivation of internal strength, he even seemed restless, which showed how excited he was.
He Yiming smiled suddenly and said, "Grandpa, Grandpa, someone is here." ”
The second elder immediately set his eyes on the top of the mountain, and after a long time, he saw a person running down like flying, and from his mouth, he shouted loudly: "Senior brother, but you are back......"
