Chapter 17: Descending the Mountain

At noon, the sun burned so hard that there was not a thin cloud in the blue sky. Moreover, at this time, it is one of the two hours of the day when the aura of heaven and earth is the most condensed and stubborn. Fang Shuo and He Yan couldn't see the glare of the sun, and entered the hut to cool off.

Maybe it was because he was in a hurry, maybe he was tired from scolding Li Laodao, Fang Shuo sat at the wooden table with his forehead on his back, motionless.

He Yan accompanied Fang Shuo, resting his head on the table, rolling his eyes from time to time and sweeping Fang Shuo's eyes.

Li Laodao took all the gold lacquer and jade slips that Fang Shuo had left here without a face, and he didn't practice "Divine Martial Refining Truth" himself. Fang Shuo went down the mountain for nothing and went back to Lingquan, oh no, he reported safety to He Yan's parents, this is still meaningful.

But since Fang Shuo scolded in the direction of Li Laodao's slip for a long time, he was so tired that he went back to the hut, and he didn't say a word until now.

He Yan was a little stunned in his heart, he wasn't worried that Fang Shuo would slash him with a sword, after all, he was a brother for so many years. But if Fang Shuo flicked his sleeves and didn't care about himself anymore, then when would he go to Surabaya in Qingzhou to find Miss Mei.

He Yan thought to himself, it was better to persuade Fang Shuo a little, and dissipate his anger first. He was just about to open his mouth to count Li Lao Dao, but Fang Shuo raised his head suddenly.

"Hey, it scared the hell out of me. Lao Fang, you're all right. He Yan asked softly.

Fang Shuo swept away his tired expression, and his eyes were full of divine words: "The old man is not trustworthy, I didn't expect this, I have already prepared." It's just that as soon as he got up the mountain, he slipped away, didn't let me touch it, and didn't give him a few heavy blows, it was like a punch on cotton, which made me very unhappy. ”

He Yan suddenly realized: "So that's the case, I'm really afraid that you will be angry and don't care about anything." ”

"Don't worry, I'm not going to give up halfway. Old man Li is cheating, I still have to keep my promise. said that I would send you to see Mei Yiqing, and I would never break my word. Fang Shuo looked at He Yan and said confidently.

"Oh, Lao Fang, don't say anything, it's still the same sentence, how can I make such a friend to you in this life, it's worth it." He Yan was so moved that he almost cried.

Fang Shuo disliked He Yan and said: "Hey, hey, don't give me this set, your sycophancy, I've heard enough about it." By the way, didn't the old man teach you some exclusive cultivation method, you can tell me carefully. ”

So, He Yan told Fang Shuo all the exercises that Li Lao Dao practiced like drinking.

"An old drunkard is an old drunkard, and even the exercises he created have something to do with wine. Although it sounds bullshit and stinks, it still makes some sense. From now on, you will practice according to the set of exercises he said. However, I would like to warn you that you can practice fine, but if you also learn from the old man who is addicted to the stinky habit of drinking, I will dismiss you with one slap. Fang Shuo's face was blue, and he warned He Yan viciously.

This scared He Yan a lot, but he knew that Fang Shuo's expression was definitely serious, if he drank like Li Laodao, Fang Shuo would really do what he said, and he would waste himself with one palm, there was no room at all, and he was ruthless.

"Yes, yes. I would never be like that, I can swear. He Yan chick nodded as if pecking rice, "I will learn from you, replace wine with tea, be strict with yourself, and keep your words in mind. ”

What nonsense. He Yan's gambling curse and swear were all incoherent, and Fang Shuo rolled his eyes when he heard it. It is conceivable that the people who know Fang Shuo best are him and Li Laodao.

Fang Shuo took out the Qiankun bag and took out the Xuanyue Mountain's jade book and pen inkstone.

"Lao He, now, you have officially entered the mountain gate of Xuanyue Mountain. The old man didn't care about anything, so I had to help take care of it. I'll fill in your name on this jade book first, so that you will be a genuine Xuanyue disciple. Fang Shuo said.

Turning over the sheet inlaid with white jade, Fang Shuo went directly to the end, and on the next line of the word Fang Shuo, the word He Yan was written in ink.

He Yan on the side looked at Mu Puqi and said, "Hey, old Fang, why is the word Fang Shuo on this jade book your handwriting?" ”

"It's all said, the old man doesn't care, of course I have to come." Fang Shuo said as a matter of course.

"Then at a cursory glance, there are not many names on this spectrum, but why?" He Yan asked again.

Fang Shuo sighed: "There are not many Xuanyue disciples, and when it comes to our line, the number is even smaller. Alas, being very strict in choosing disciples is not always a good thing. I see, this world is already chaotic enough, and it doesn't matter if you add another fire. It is better to open the mountain gate and spread the law to the world. ”

"By the way, I didn't mean to give you a big gift. Now that you have become a disciple of Xuanyue, I will give you another entrance gift on behalf of the old man. Fang Shuo said.

Taking out a cloth bag of the same material from the Qiankun bag, Fang Shuo handed it to He Yan.

"This ......" He Yan exclaimed in his hand.

I didn't expect to put another Qiankun bag in the Qiankun bag, He Yan was shocked by Fang Shuo's trick.

Fang Shuo saw He Yan's surprise and explained, "There's nothing strange about it, the so-called Qiankun bag is just an ordinary pocket with Dao magic. This bag is just an ordinary cloth bag now. ”

He Yan opened the cloth bag and took a look, there was only a piece of green jade jue braided with gold thread in it, and there was really no mystery in the rest.

Fang Shuo said: "This piece of green jade is your credential as a disciple of Xuanyue Mountain, don't lose it." ”

After speaking, Fang Shuo punched out a spiritual qi void talisman and pasted his fingers on the cloth bag in He Yan's hand. In this way, He Yan also has his own Qiankun bag.

Sure enough, when He Yan opened the Qiankun bag and tried again, the aura inside the cloth bag was mysterious, and he really had the ability to store things.

He Yan said excitedly: "Old Fang, can you teach me this hand technique?" ”

Fang Shuo responded: "Why not, I will teach you slowly when I have time." For now, we have to think about how much we have left. The old man was shameless, and took away so many gold-lacquered jade slips, even the Five Elements Stone and the Immortal Grass went away. We can say that we have lost a lot of belongings. ”

"Five Elements Stone and Evergreen Grass?" He Yan was puzzled and asked Fang Shuo.

"That's right, it's the two bamboo and wooden boxes that I threw to you with the gold lacquer jade slip, and the things that contained them were the Five Elements Stone and the Evergreen Grass. Originally, I was going to leave it for you to use for body refining, but now I was taken away by the old man. Fang Shuo slapped the wooden table and sighed.

"What are the medicinal effects of these Five Elements Stone and Longevity Grass? Keep it for me to refine. He Yan asked again.

"The Five Elements Stone is a general term for five kinds of jade that are rich in the aura of heaven and earth, and the longevity grass is the general name of the herbs that contain vitality and are used to heal pain. We are so poor that we don't have a lot of stock, and if we use one point, we will lose one point. I don't need it, but you need both of these things right now. Forget about those jade slips, I can't understand them, the old man can't teach them, and you can't learn them. If he takes it, let him take it, but what are the Five Elements Stone and Immortal Grass for? This old man is really hateful. Fang Shuo said hatefully.

He Yan lowered his head, held his forehead, and said, "I guess, although the Five Elements Stone has aura, it is jade after all. Master should have taken it to a pawnshop and bought wine in exchange for money. The longevity grass can cure injuries, and Master should have taken it to the pharmacy and sold it. ”

Fang Shuo was reminded by He Yan, and then he came to his senses, and he was so shocked that he opened his mouth and couldn't speak.

After holding it for a long time, Fang Shuo lowered his head and muttered, "It's true." ”

Glancing at the head of the bed, fortunately he saw the True Martial Dao Sword, He Yan was relieved: "Fortunately, this True Martial Dao Sword was not taken away by the master, otherwise I would really commit suicide to apologize." ”

Fang Shuo explained, "That's because I've already given it to you. If the old man takes it again, it will not be mine, but yours. ”

Pulling his hair hard, He Yan thought about it carefully, what other good things are there.

Looking out of the house, He Yan asked, "Hey, old man, there are still a few gourds on the fence at the door." Are these gourds treasures? ”

"That's what the old man used to make and serve wine, and where is the treasure." Fang Shuo said.

"Then there's nothing of value here?" He Yan couldn't believe it.

"No, it's all rags. Forget it, let's go down the mountain. I don't want to stay for a moment. Fang Shuo said.

Fang Shuo got together, rushed outside the house in a few steps, and He Yan hurriedly followed.

As soon as I rushed out of the door, I found that the inside and outside of the house were very different. The inside of the house is extremely dull, but the outside of the house is exceptionally refreshing.

At this time, the sky was clear, and there was a vast expanse in front of him.

Such a scene seemed to have infected Fang Shuo as well.

Fang Shuo stretched his waist, as if his arrogance was suddenly born, and his previous anger and exhaustion were swept away.

He Yan hurriedly ran out with Fang Shuo, and proposed, "Why don't we go back first, go back to Lingquan." Anyway, I've now embarked on the long road of cultivation, and I'm going back to report my parents' safety in person. Otherwise, we can go to Surabaya now. Didn't Miss Mei invite you to Qingzhou to participate in some water and land fair? ”

Fang Shuo turned around and replied to He Yan with a smile: "Look at your unambitious appearance. When you have a good time, it's not too late to report your safety to your uncle and aunt. Besides, when you go to Qingzhou, you have to wait for you to bring up the cultivation first, you half a bucket of water, still want to chase Mei Yiqing? In my opinion, you can't even enter the gate of the East China Sea Alliance. ”

"And where are we going?" He Yan asked.

"You're a little bit lucky, this Kyushu is so big, let's try our luck around first." Fang Shuo said.

"Luck?" He Yan asked again.

"yes, try your luck. Maybe, but after three and five years, you will be able to change your cultivation. Fang Shuo said with a wink.

"Alright then, you're up to the cracks." He Yan said helplessly.

Having made up his mind to go down the mountain, Fang Shuo immediately strode forward.

But after walking a few steps, Fang Shuo looked back again, touched his chin and asked He Yan: "Old He, tell me, this old man gave me this lonely mountain, will he come back?" ”

He Yan tilted his head and thought about it, and guessed: "I guess it's possible." ”

"It's not possible, it's definite. I know this old man's temper too well. He'll definitely come back again, maybe he won't leave if he stays here. No, I'll have to tidy him up, set him up with a few big formations, and add some side dishes for drinking. Fang Shuo patted his thigh and said.

As soon as he said it, Fang Shuo jumped into the air in one step, back and forth, left and right, up and down, and slapped one spirit rune after another. Start the northwest, draw the southeast, set up a killing array in the north, and leave the fire in the south, and the cloth is dense.

After everything was done, Fang Shuo clapped his hands and said happily: "It's done." Alas, it almost consumed more than half of my spiritual power, but it was worth it. ”

He Yan was a little worried: "Old Fang, you are a mess, you won't even hurt us by mistake when the time comes." ”

"No, there is a Jade Jue who can prove your identity, you must be fine, even if you lose the Jade Jue, as long as the True Martial Arts Sword is still in your hand, you will be fine." Fang Shuo comforted.

He Yan was relieved at this time, and asked Fang Shuo: "Okay, let's ...... then"

Fang Shuo said heroically: "Lao He, let's go down the mountain." ”
