Chapter 42: The Wrath of Stone Mountain
'Whew' A sound of breaking the air sounded in the dense forested mountains, and only a blue phantom could be seen faintly, and then the air seemed to be slightly filled with a trace of coldness.
On the slightly flat mountainside, in the open space in front of the two simple thatched houses, a dark blue cloak was carried behind his back, and a dark black scabbard sword was carried on his back, and the figure of a young man in his thirties was frozen.
'Huh. Whew..' As if the sound of a flame burning, a fiery red thing like a ball of fire burst out of one of the thatched huts in an instant, and the phantom flickered in front of the cold man, but it was a fiery red fox, with a small body slightly lowered, a pair of dark red eyes staring at the man, and at the same time, a tail nearly two meters long like a burning flame was waving slightly in the air, and the space was slightly trembling.
Seeing this, the man with his eyes shrunk instantly put his hand on the scabbard of the sword behind his back in the next moment, and at the same time, he couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice: "Spirit beast fire fox?"
"Boy, I advise you not to move!" An old and deep voice suddenly sounded, echoing in the surrounding mountains and forests, making it impossible to tell where the voice came from.
Hearing this, the cold man who was about to draw his sword out of the sheath couldn't help but stagnate in the movements of his hand, and after cautiously glancing at the spirit beast fire fox that was eyeing him, he turned around and said loudly: "Senior, junior Lan Lingyue, I don't mean to offend!"
"Ling Shuang Sword, I can't imagine that she will hand over this sword to you!" the old voice with a slight sigh sounded, vaguely carrying a hint of melancholy and reminiscence.
Turning around suddenly, the cold man Lan Lingyue couldn't help but look at an old man with dirty clothes and gray hair like a chicken's nest almost two meters away from him.
"Little girl, dare to come to me with such a little guts?" Seeing this, the old man's slightly chubby face full of red light couldn't help but show a faint smile, and at the same time, the deep eyes also narrowed slightly to look at Lan Lingyue.
Reacting slightly, Lan Lingyue hurriedly saluted the old man respectfully, "Senior!"
Gently stretched out his hand and hugged the spirit beast fire fox that turned into a fiery red phantom and came to front of him in his arms, and then the old man walked towards the thatched house not far away, and at the same time, a slightly low old voice also sounded in Lan Lingyue's ears: "Come here!"
Slightly relieved, Lan Lingyue hurriedly turned around and followed.
In the thatched house, the layout is very simple, lying quietly on a rattan chair, holding the spirit beast fire fox that shrunk into a ball of fire in his arms, squinting as if he was about to fall asleep, the old man slightly skimmed Lan Lingyue who walked in, and said indifferently: "The old lady surnamed Lan, what did you call to come over?"
Lan Lingyue was slightly stunned when she heard this.
"Oh, is she your master, or your ancestor?" the old man said again, with some of these impatience in his tone.
"It's a family teacher!" Lan Lingyue, who reacted slightly, couldn't help but say with a slightly unnatural expression.
"Old lady, you are so old, you have accepted such a young disciple, and you have also given him all the Lingshuang Sword," muttered softly, and then the old man said impatiently: "Okay, I don't care what the family master and ancestor are." What did she ask you to do? I can't tell you a flower, I beat you to death and feed the wolf. ”
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and then Lan Lingyue hurriedly said respectfully: "Senior, junior is here to ask you for help!"
"Help?" The old man glanced at Lan Lingyue in a little surprise when he heard this, and then couldn't help but change his face slightly: "What's wrong with the old lady?
"You deserve it, the unconscious old lady should have died a long time ago!" turned to the old man with no angry hatred.
"Senior, the family teacher said that if there is anyone in this world who can save her, maybe only you. Ling Yue, please show mercy!" As he spoke, Lan Lingyue knelt down on one knee at the old man.
His eyes were slightly condensed, looking at Lan Lingyue, who was kneeling on one knee, and then the old man raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Her stubborn temper, I'm afraid she won't come to me until she dies!"
"It's the juniors who make their own decisions!" Lan Lingyue said with a slight bow.
Nodding slightly, the old man turned to look at Lan Lingyue with slightly squinted eyes and said with a slight evil: "You girl, you are quite respectful of your teacher! Come, tell the old man, how much of your master still has the demeanor of the past?"
"Senior, what do you mean?" Lan Lingyue couldn't help but look up at the old man in surprise when he heard this.
"Stupid! The old man is saying that she still has the same appearance as she was back then! If it is still reasonable, let her come and take care of the old man for a few years. If she is happy, the old man will consider finding a way to relieve her of the residual poison on her body!" the old man squinted and stroked his beard and said with a smile.
"Senior!" his face changed slightly, and Lan Lingyue was busy saying, "This matter, Ling Yue is difficult to answer. However, if the seniors are willing to save the life of the family teacher, Ling Yue is willing to let the seniors tell him, do anything for the seniors, and die without regrets!"
"What a loving and righteous boy!" The old man, who was slightly silent and then sighed, couldn't help but sneer: "But, why should I promise you? Your master is amazing, Niu, isn't it in anyone's eyes? Let her go to Tang Men, that poison may only be able to be truly lifted by Tang Men." To be honest, I'm not sure this old man!"
Lan Lingyue was stunned when he heard this, and then gritted his teeth and said, "Master said, if I go to the Tang Sect, she will kill me with her own hands!
"It's useless to beg me!" shook his head slightly, and then the old man waved his hand impatiently and said: "Get out! Next time you bother me, if your teacher doesn't kill you, I will kill you." ”
"Senior, blood..."Lan Lingyue's face changed when he heard this, and he was busy.
"Huh?" The old man with a stared gaze instantly exuded a fierce murderous aura all over his body, blocking back the words that Lan Lingyue hadn't yet spoken.
As soon as his complexion changed, Lan Lingyue gritted his teeth and said, "Junior, retire!"
As he spoke, Lan Lingyue, who stood up unwillingly, turned around and prepared to leave.
"Wait!" the old man's deep voice sounded later, but there was a faint hint of surprise.
Hearing this, Lan Lingyue suddenly turned around and looked at the old man in surprise and said, "Senior, are you willing to agree?"
"What did you just say about blood?" the old man stared at Lan Lingyue with a dead gaze and said indifferently.
Slightly stunned, Lan Lingyue was immediately busy and said: "Junior, is it talking about Blood Lingzhi! Senior, that Blood Lingzhi is rumored to have a life-sustaining effect, can it save my master's life?"
"Blood Lingzhi?" His face changed slightly, and the old man asked in a deep voice, "How do you know about Blood Lingzhi?"
"Senior, in this Yunling Mountain Range, the Blood Lingzhi was born, this rumor has spread all over the world, and basically some powerful forces know about it!" Lan Lingyue hurriedly replied.
Hearing this, the old man's face was slightly gloomy in an instant, and he shouted coldly: "Get out!"
Seeing this, he hesitated slightly, and then Lan Lingyue turned around and left slightly dejected.
After Lan Lingyue left, the old man couldn't help but grit his teeth and said in a low voice: "Bastard, how could it get out?
"Huh, this fluctuation?" The old man, who turned his expression slightly and suddenly raised his head, suddenly flashed a trace of surprise in his eyes: "Could it be that Tianma broke through the strength? How is it possible, it can reach the strength of a late-stage innate spirit beast so quickly? Li Tianfeng, could it be that this old boy did it? No, how could he know... No, it seems that the Bloodthirsty Ape injured a person last time... That man was later rescued by Tenma... Could it be..."
His face was a little ugly, and then the old man couldn't help but scold: "Bastard, Li Tianfeng, you old boy, do you also want to get the blood lingzhi? But why did you spread the news?"
"What the hell do you want to do?" muttered to himself, and the old man's face suddenly moved, and his figure disappeared in an instant.
And at this moment, in the mountains and forests, Lan Lingyue, who had a frustrated face, walked towards the mountain a little bitterly and helplessly.
"Stop, boy!" With a low old man's soft drink, the old man had already come to Lan Lingyue like a ghost.
After a pause, looking at the old man who appeared in front of him, Lan Lingyue couldn't help but say with a look of surprise on his face: "Senior, have you promised to help the family teacher detoxify?"
"I said, I can't do it!" said angrily, and the old man squinted for a while and said, "However, if you kid helps me do something, I will find a way to let that old lady live for a few more years!"
