129 The dead and the living
The ghost cave matter, all the turmoil in Xishu seems to have quietly calmed down, and for the people in CD City, the disaster of this mighty ghost cave a few days ago was just a sudden earthquake, and when the sun rose as usual the next day, they had long forgotten about it, no one could imagine that in the depths of the mountains hundreds of miles away outside the city, there had been such a thrilling battle between people, ghosts and demons.
On the contrary, it was the large-scale mobilization of the border troops on the CD Road, which made some well-informed people add some after-dinner conversations. But these talks did not cause much turmoil, because the end of the year is approaching.
It was already snowing heavily in the city, and on the Qingcheng Mountain outside the city, which had finally quieted down, it was already snowy.
At this time, the head of Qingyang Palace, Hua Yuan Daoren, sat at the only stone table in front of the Huangji Pavilion in the back mountain, and drank a pot of freshly brewed and steaming tea with the Huaying Daoist who guarded the pavilion.
Hua Ying Daoren put down the tea cup in his hand and asked, "How are the injuries of several junior brothers and sisters?"
"I am still in retreat, and there are two situations that are not very optimistic, and I have already damaged my foundation, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to make progress in my cultivation in the future. The others still have to depend on the situation, but Huafeng's junior disciple has a solid foundation and went out first, he is the chief of the Yin Division, and there are still some mundane things to deal with under the mountain. This ghost disaster, many of the disciples of the next generation of the sect have suffered a lot of injuries, these are all good seedlings, and the originally scheduled retreat breakthrough date has to be postponed, but I have already sent someone to Lushan to ask for some Pei Yuan solid pills, I hope there will be no more moths in the near future. ”
Hua Yuan Daoren took a sip of tea, and his tone was a little low.
Huaying Daoren looked up in the direction of CD City, and sighed lightly: "Over the years, I have really suffered Senior Brother Huafeng. When I have time in the coming year, I will go to Laojun Pavilion in person, and I always take their pills to eat, and I always have to return the gift. ”
Hua Yuan Daoist swallowed the tea in his mouth, and said with some disapproval: "It's just to eat some pills from them, it's all us who are desperate." Besides, this time I asked Senior Brother Huafeng to send me to ask for medicine, and I am a nominal disciple of the Spring and Autumn Mansion, this is a public faction, and it is not my Qingyang Palace's private face. Moreover, the beginning and end of this incident was also informed of the Spring and Autumn Mansion as early as the first time, thinking that at the speed of the Zhiyin Division to deliver the news, the government of Jiankang City should have gotten the news a few days ago. Such a big matter, it is impossible for them not to say hello to the Laojun Pavilion in advance, a mess in the realm of Xishu, we help the court take care of it on weekdays, if he Laojun Pavilion dares to stumble on us, I will directly take back a few percent of those disciples under the mountain, and see if they will come up to my Qingcheng Mountain to intercede. ”
Hua Ying Daoren smiled bitterly: "You are very scheming, but no matter how you say it, those pills are not easy to refine, and the real person in charge of the pavilion and the great elder of the furnace in the old monarch pavilion at the moment are not generous lords, and they are very small-minded." ”
Hua Yuan Daoren said helplessly: "Hey, did you say that the bull rider was kicked in the head by the cow, why did he hand over the big seal of the palm pavilion to such a guy with a small belly." ”
"Shhhhh After all, I have a short hand, so I Qingcheng Mountain will repay the favor and send something to each other, so that we can hang on each other's faces, and we can help each other in the future. ”
Hua Ying Daoist also put on a cautious appearance when he spoke, looking as if there was really a pair of ears eavesdropping on their conversation somewhere out of sight.
When Hua Yuan Daoren heard this, he seemed to think of something again, and said puzzledly: "Speaking of the bull rider, senior brother, this time in Hengduan Mountain, the person I saw, you really can't remember what the origin is?"
"You mean that crazy old man in a bear's skin who beat the three of you?"
Hua Ying Daoren asked.
"Yes, although this person is crazy and delirious, his cultivation is extremely high, and the vitality in his body is running very strangely, and his movements are accompanied by rolling thunder, extremely strong and domineering, and if he smashes down, even a mountain can collapse it." You say that such a person will definitely not be a nobody...... Who can have such kung fu and realm in this world?"
Thinking of the battle with the bearskin monster, Hua Yuan Daoren is still a little thrilling when he mentions it now.
Hua Ying Daoren was silent for a long time, he blew the tea cup in his hand, and the hot steam of the tea covered his eyes, making him look on his face faintly unclear.
"There is only one person, like the bull rider, one of the top ten masters of the heaven and earth list that year, Lei is undefeated. ”
"Huh?!"
Hua Yuan Daoren's hand holding the tea cup trembled suddenly, and he was almost burned by the spilled tea.
Then, he hurriedly took a sip of tea to calm down, and said with a wry smile: "Senior brother, then why did you say you didn't know before......
Hua Ying Daoren put down the teacup, looked at him, and said slowly: "Back then, the three giants of martial arts, except for the one in the Northern Qi Divine King's Mansion, the Yuan Qingshan retreat failed to break through the realm and died directly, while Lei Undefeated disappeared soon after breaking through the Wutai Mountain Gate alone, and was never seen again. ”
Hua Yuan Daoren's face was strange when he heard this, and he leaned forward slightly, as if he was afraid of being heard, and whispered: "I heard that the bald monks of Wutai Mountain didn't stop him, and although Lei Undefeated was injured, he finally broke into the gate of the place......
"Wow!"
As if in response to Hua Yuan Daoren's words, a frightened bird flew up from an old pine for some reason, shaking the snow on the pine branches to fall in pieces.
Hua Ying Daoist retracted his gaze, looked at the calm tea in his hand, and said lightly: "In this case, you said that you saw Lei Undefeated, how can you make me believe this? ”
Hua Yuan Daoren was stunned for a moment, then sat up straight, looked at the gloomy sky above his head, and muttered: "Yes, it is impossible for him to come back, it is the underworld......
For a while, neither of them spoke again, their expressions were different, and they didn't know what they were thinking.
I don't know how long this silence lasted, until the tea on the table was cold and no longer emitted the slightest heat, Hua Ying Daoren asked first: "By the way, how is that kid named Wang Shen?"
"Oh, that kid, as soon as he went back, he was transferred away by Ding Fu, he was the person who was in charge of the Yin Division of Qinzhou Mansion, and Senior Brother Hua Zhen didn't stop him. But this kid is indeed a bit evil, I heard that when he went to Qinzhou Mansion, he was still a mortal man who didn't know anything, why did he have a great consummation in a few months? It stands to reason that the Great Returning Pill of the Old Jun Pavilion does not have this effect......
Huayuan Daoist was also puzzled when he thought of Wang Shenlai.
Hua Ying Taoist put down the tea cup that had already been cold, put his hands together, and recalled: "I also asked Senior Brother Hua Zhen carefully about him later, and it turned out that the seriously injured Taoist priest who came to the mountain to seek refuge with the Shimen token five years ago was actually his master. It's a pity that his master has already left, three people under the seat, and the other two have gone away from the rivers and lakes, leaving him alone, so he was received by Hua Zhen's junior brother in the Qinzhou Mansion Zhiyin Division, I can't imagine that this kid has no cultivation, but there are a lot of weirdness, not only mastering a ghost control thaumaturgy, but even the adventures on his body are endless, maybe he will also be a character in the future. ”
"So it's really good for senior brother to look at people, why didn't I see that this kid still has great creation, don't you know, even the old man of the Red Lake on the Nine Emperor Mountain actually moved the idea of accepting apprentices to him, but he was stopped by Ding Fu. ”
Speaking of this, Hua Yuan Daoren showed a little regret on his face.
Seeing this, Hua Ying Daoren smiled and said: "Fortune and misfortune are lurking, misfortune and fortune are relied on, this kid is involved in a lot of things, who can say what will happen in the future......"
With a sigh, the mountain wind gradually rose, blowing the entire Qingcheng Mountain to be hazy and hazy with flying snow.
