Chapter Seventy-Three: Nine Deaths and One Life

Ah Jiao led the way, and Shen Xian followed behind her. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoThis teenage girl is obviously very familiar with this mountain, and often comes here for activities, look at her walking on the mountain road, not at all feel laborious, but give people the feeling of being as light as a swallow! And she wears embroidered cloth shoes on her feet, the soles are thinner than the boots of Shen Xian, but she steps on the sharp pebbles, unaffected, but like a very good hand, walking on needle felt, like walking on the ground! It's just that Shen Xian saw Ah Jiao's realm, this little girl obviously didn't even reach the realm of a second-class martial artist, she could only be regarded as a martial arts apprentice who had just started, if she wanted to say that she would have any extremely high skills, Shen Xian didn't believe it!

In this way, it can only show that Ah Jiao really lives in the mountains, and has been running and walking here for many years, so he naturally adapts to this environment that can collapse others!

Ah Jiao walked faster and faster, and when she turned a low mountain rock, she was already jumping and trotting! Shen Xian endured the pain in his feet while struggling to follow Ah Jiao closely, he suddenly felt a sense of frustration, he was a martial artist, and he was about to catch up with a little martial artist! And he was a man, but he was not as good as a teenage girl who could run and jump, it was really discouraged!

Ah Jiao ran and ran, and suddenly looked back at Shen Xian a few times, this little girl has a well-behaved heart, her big eyes are shining, and she gives people the impression of being smart and clever. She looked at it for a while, and then understood Shen Xian's difficulty, so she said to Shen Xian: "Big brother, you have been seriously injured in your hands and feet, and it is very uncomfortable to walk on this mountain road, right? You are still carrying a big sister on your back, I am afraid that it will be even more difficult to walk! You wait here for a while, Ah Jiao will find a means of transportation!" After speaking, the little girl ran away without a shadow with a smile, leaving Shen Xian alone in the mountains!

Shen Xian didn't want to walk around for a while, so according to what Ah Jiao said, he stayed where he was and rested for a while.

After a while, there were bursts of girl's laughter in the mountain, and then Shen Xian heard the sheep's cry! The voice got closer and closer, and when Ah Jiao's figure appeared, Shen Xian was surprised to find that the little girl actually brought a big sheep!

Said that the sheep was big, the size was like a horse, and it had horns on its head, it should be a goat living in the mountains! It's just that Shen Xian had never seen or heard of such a huge goat, so he was stunned for a moment!

Seeing that Shen Xian was surprised, Ah Jiao laughed again, and then said: "This is the 'Mountain King' here, although he usually doesn't want to carry people, but today is special, it allows you to ride on its back and take you to Bailing Mountain Villa!"

Shen Xian didn't know what to say for a while, smiled at Ah Jiao, and then smiled at the "Mountain King", then hugged Yue Yin on his back to his chest, and then carefully rode up to the Mountain King, and then said to the goat: "Thank you so much!"

The king of the mountain seemed to be able to understand human language, and when he heard Shen Xian's thanks, he "bleated" and shouted happily, and the four sheep's hooves moved, and they took a step and walked on the gravel road!

Ah Jiao is obviously in a good mood, tying the horns of the sheep with a small red rope in front, pulling the rope to lead the sheep away, singing a little song while walking, obviously looking like an innocent child!

The goat is accustomed to walking on rugged mountain roads, although sometimes it encounters ups and downs, and likes to jump, but it can always keep its body stable and not too bumpy! And this "mountain king" is the king of the goats, walking without shaking, even if it is a bumpy area, it is easy to step on, plus its wool is soft, so that Shen Xian sitting on the back feels comfortable!

Not long after the king of the mountain walked with Shen Xian, at the end of the winding path, at the turn of the green and lush woods, a low fence wall slowly appeared, and then three houses could be seen diagonally. The fence wall is only half a person high, and there is a door type in the middle, and there are two thin bamboo poles standing on the left and right sides, and it is just a natural plaque that uses the climbing grass that climbs all over the fence and grows along the bamboo poles.

"Bailing Villa!" Shen Xian looked at the words formed by the wall-climbing grass, and said faintly.

"It's here, big brother, this is the 'Bailing Villa' you're looking for! That 'medicine king' is inside, according to the usual hours, it should be in the medicine garden to grow medicine! Look, that's it, between the second house and the third house, you can see it in the past! Hey, hey, Ah Jiao can't accompany the big brother in, and he has to serve the king of the mountain first, it has worked hard today, and it can't be neglected!" Ah Jiao smiled obediently, Shen Xian hugged Yue Yin and got off the back of the Mountain King, and then Ah Jiao led the Mountain King along the original road past the corner and disappeared!

Before Shen Xian could thank Ah Jiao, the little girl walked away with a smile! He had to smile, and then took Yue Yin and walked to the medicine garden of Bailing Villa that Ah Jiao said.

Shen Xian imagined that since Bailing Villa was known as "Mountain Villa", it should be very vast and luxurious, but what he saw in front of him was only three bungalows, and the total was not as big as his lord's mansion in Bitou City, so he always felt a little childish, not magnificent!

Shen Xian bypassed the second house, and as soon as he looked up, he saw the "medicine garden" that Ah Jiao said!

If the entire area of Bailing Mountain Villa is divided into ten parts, then this medicine garden will take up seven parts!

The medicine garden is huge, and all kinds of strange herbs are naturally indispensable in it! Shen Xian is still a hundred steps away from the medicine garden, and he can already smell the bursts of medicinal fragrance! The fragrance enters the nose, giving people a feeling of relaxation and pleasure, and then the aftertaste is as if it is in the sky, stepping on the clouds, wandering in it! Just smelling the aroma, Shen Xian felt that the medicinal power overflowing in the air had penetrated deep into his internal organs, and it was indescribably refreshing and comfortable!

Shen Xian took a few more breaths, and his eyes fell on a back figure in the medicine garden! Shen Xian immediately put Yue Yin down gently, leaned on the edge of the low fence in the medicine garden, and said to the back figure who was cultivating with a small hoe: "In Xia Shen Xian, I have come to Bailing Villa to ask to see the Medicine King! I hope the Medicine King can save my friend's life!"

The back figure turned around, and Shen Xian saw an old face, the man had a long beard, and his hair and beard were snow-white. His face was wrinkled, just by looking at it, he felt that this person should be an old man, he should be sixty or seventy years old! And he wore a hat on his head, wore a dark blue shirt, did not lift his trouser legs, stepped on a pair of straw sandals, and his feet were covered with black and wet medicinal mud, looking like a farmer who cultivated the land, and did not have the appearance of the fairy wind bones of the "medicine king" in Shen Xian's imagination!

The old man looked at Shen Xian carefully, opened his mouth and asked, "How did you get in?"

"I came all the way down the trail into the mountains, then jumped down the abyss, and then crossed the trail!, ah, I met a little girl on the way, and she brought a goat to carry me!" replied Shen Xian respectfully.

"Well, you're not lying!" the old man nodded and smiled, "My hands and feet are bloody and blurry, I'm afraid that when I go down from that cliff, I will clasp my bare hands on the stone wall, and then use my strength to slide down, and be ground like this, right?"

"The Medicine King seniors know?" Shen Xian couldn't help but be surprised when he heard the old man tell him about his experience.

The old man smiled and said: "It seems that the relationship between the person you brought and the person who needs treatment is not ordinary! Hahaha, silly boy, there is a secret cave leading to the bottom of the cliff on the side of the cliff, if you spend time looking for it, you can find it! People like you who jump off the cliff despite themselves are most likely eager to seek medical treatment, and the people who ask the old man for treatment must have had grievances and grievances with you!"

"Hehe, the Medicine King seniors are really as wise as a torch!" Shen Xian said.

The old man smiled and nodded, then walked to Shen Xian's side, looked down at Yue Yin, who was leaning on the edge of the fence and was dying, frowned slightly, and asked, "What do you want the old man to treat this person?"

"Exactly, I hope that the old-timers of the Medicine King will agree, and I will be grateful when I make up my mind!" Shen Xian said with his fists cupped.

The old man laughed and said: "It's easy to save people, but it's hard to save your heart! Silly boy, although you can walk all the way to my mountain villa without using your body method, and make the old man feel moved, but you must know that the old man does not heal people casually! There are too many people in the world who should be born and people who should die, some people want to die, but they are born, and some people want to live, but they die! And if the old man saves a person, but that person does not want to live, or it is better to live than to die, do you say that this is saving people, or is it harming people?"

"The old-timers don't understand this truth very well!" Shen Xian said.

"What's your relationship with that little girl?"

"Friends. ā€

"Does that little girl like you?"

"The old-timers are amazing, you can see it at a glance!"

"But what about you? Do you like her? According to the old man's observation, the love of your heart is definitely not this person, since you don't like her, why do you want to save her? Even if you save her, if you can't respond to her affection, it will make her miserable, life is worse than death, and you can bear to see her suffer this? Hehe, what the old man said is to ask you to think clearly, it is easy to save people, but after saving people, do you have the determination to bear the consequences?"

"Old-timer, I really haven't thought about the consequences or anything, but it's a human life, and if you can save it, you can save it, and it has nothing to do with love!"

"If you say this, the old man will have nothing to persuade him again! But there is a sentence that must be said in advance, the old man has 'three no-doctors': no medical treatment of the emperor's relatives and relatives, no medical treatment of nobles of the family, and no medical nobody! Speaking of this, the old man wants to ask you, what is that girl's surname? What is her origin? Don't fool the old man, otherwise you will be bombarded immediately!"

Shen Xian nodded helplessly, so he had to tell the truth: "Her name is Yue Yin, she is the daughter of the Yue family of Jingwu Kingdom, her father is the head of the Yue family, Yue Wuxuan!"

"Yue Wuxuan?" As soon as the old man heard this name, his face suddenly turned unpleasant! I saw him blow up his white beard, stomp his feet again and again, and said bluntly: "No medical treatment, no medical treatment, no medical treatment for anyone surnamed Yue!"

Shen Xian saw that his face changed faster than turning a book, he didn't know what was going on, and before he could ask, the old man picked up a small hoe and shouted viciously to Shen Xian: "Take this person out quickly, I don't heal, absolutely not!"

"You're still so careful!" Just when the old man drove Shen Xian out of the door, Ah Jiao didn't know when he appeared next to the old man, the two obviously knew each other, the old man saw Ah Jiao's expression was obviously relaxed, and Ah Jiao said to him with a smile, "That big brother just saved my life, for my sake, should you save that big sister?"

The old man glared at Ah Jiao sideways, then blew his beard and said, "No, absolutely not! I will never save the Yue family!"

"Stingy, narrow-minded, where is the bearing of a generation of leaders? You still say that you want to start a sect, just your child's temper, who dares to come to learn from the teacher?" Ah Jiao stuck out his tongue at the old man.

The old man snorted a few times and said, "I'm all for your good! If it weren't for the Yue family, how would you be like this? When the old man said this, he seemed to think that he was talking about Turu, so he immediately kept silent. And Ah Jiao's ghost spirit was the same, he already knew what the old man was going to say, but he smiled a little lost and said: "So what? Ah Jiao likes life in the mountains, running and running every day, so he is comfortable, much better than staying in a small house all day and not going anywhere! Moreover, there is a master who teaches Ah Jiao to cultivate medicine and alchemy, which is very fun!"

The old man listened to Ah Jiao's words, let out a long sigh, reached out and touched her head, and said: "The Yue family is ruthless and unjust, but we can't do this, right? Alas, but for the sake of that kid's sincerity, I can promise to help! It's just ......"

"Just what?" Shen Xian heard the old man say that he wanted to save Yue Yin, and his heart immediately became happy. But the old man suddenly smiled slyly and said to Shen Xian: "If you can survive the 'nine deaths and one life' designed by the old man, I will come to my rescue!"

Shen Xian was stunned for a moment, he had never heard of "nine deaths and one life", but when he heard his name, he felt powerful! Ah Jiao heard the old man say these four words, his face immediately changed, he shook off the old man's hand, and shouted angrily: "I thought you were really going to save that big sister, it turns out that your heart is so small, you hate it!" said and stuck out his tongue at the old man and ran away.

The old man showed a smug expression, shook his head and said to himself: "Do you think that with a few pretended sensational words from you, you can make my heart softer? Hmph, a little fart child is a little fart child, play with me carefully!" After speaking, he turned to Shen Xian and said, "And you, boy, don't call me 'old-timer', I'm not old, the old man is just fifty, and his body is strong!"

Shen Xian heard that he wanted to save Yue Yin, so he naturally didn't dare to offend, nodded respectfully, and asked, "I don't know what kind of test the predecessor said about 'nine deaths and one life'?"

The Medicine King smiled and said, "Just like this name, let you die for a lifetime! If you survive, the old man will immediately heal the girl surnamed Yue! But don't agree so quickly, listen to me first tell me what that nine deaths and a life are, and then make a decision......!"
