Chapter Eighty-Four: The Strange Old Man
The winding path leads to the secluded place, and the flowers and trees in the meditation room are deep. The mountain light is pleasing to the birds, and the pond shadow is empty.
Yun Xuan walked on the quiet path of the Peach Blossom Forest, relaxed and happy, looking at the beautiful scenery in front of him, not so much the Peach Blossom Forest, not that the Peach Blossom Island was more suitable.
Wildflowers are fragrant and fragrant, and beautiful trees are beautiful and shady. Yun Xuan nodded, this can be said to be a good place to escape the summer and play hip-hopping, especially with Liu Xi, Liu Hanyan, and Luoxia to have fun together, just think about it, and they are happy.
Although this place is called Peach Blossom Forest, it is not that there is only one plant here, but the number of peach trees is the majority.
It's like a tourist attraction in the previous life, and there are only a few external publicity signs, but after entering, you find that it is fun, and it is not only those attractions that are advertised.
Although the beautiful scenery in front of him is good, Yun Xuan walks alone, and no matter how good the scenery is, it is a little boring to see too much. After Yun Xuan defeated Chu Tianyou, he did not return to Liu Hanyan's side, but left alone, and then walked casually, and came here unintentionally.
Through his heart, Yun Xuan learned that the mysterious person behind Chu Tianyou was most likely the crown prince. Today, except for the emperor, it is the crown prince who is the most powerful, at least on the surface.
I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of what if, if the prince takes revenge on himself, he falls the butcher's knife on the heads of those close to him, then it's too late to regret it, and this is also where Yun Xuan scruples.
Thinking of the prince, Yun Xuan will be furious, the lesson of the last time is not educational for the prince at all, and it has only been a long time, and he has come to find trouble for himself again.
"Since you want to play, then I'll play with you," Yun Xuan said darkly.
"No" Yun Xuan walked for a while, then raised his eyes to see the mountains all around. Its southwest peaks, the forests are particularly beautiful, and the sight of the deep and deep shows makes people explore, but this is not what Yun Xuan wants.
"Unlucky, lost again" Yun Xuan walked along the path for three or four miles, and gradually heard the murmuring of water, and from the two peaks, brewing springs. Sure enough, the road has been walked a lot, and it has become familiar, and it is really a peak and a loop.
There are wings of the roof that are on the spring, and the burrow is also.
"I lost" lives in this place, either a master outside the world or a psychopath, according to Yun Xuan's guess, the possibility of a master outside the world is relatively high. Yun Xuan was curious, looked around, and then aimed at a winding path, intending to take a full look.
"Stop, this place is a forbidden place, no passage is allowed" Just as Yun Xuan was walking up, suddenly two figures appeared in front of Yun Xuan.
"" Yun Xuan was startled, looking at the two people in black clothes and black faces in front of him, Yun Xuan burst into foul language. Yun Xuan looked at the two of them, then looked around, hell, there was obviously no one here just now, where did these two people come from.
"Reason" To tell the truth, Yun Xuan was a little scared, although from a distance of several meters, Yun Xuan could feel the strong momentum emanating from them. Being able to look at the mountains on a flat bottom, presumably with high martial arts, coupled with the unique momentum that emanates, gives people a feeling of suffocation.
"No reason, don't retreat, die," the man in black said calmly, those eyes, without emotion, like an indifferent killing machine. As long as Yun Xuan is taking a step forward, he will directly wipe it out.
"Is this okay" Looking at the posture, nine times out of ten it is the legendary dead soldier, or the killer level dead soldier. Especially that look, there is no color, but the more this is the case, the more Yun Xuan feels palpitations, they didn't lie, they will really kill themselves.
"Yes, if you don't have the invitation of the person above, you can't go up" The man in black observed the jade pendant handed by Yun Xuan, looked at it carefully, and didn't let go of anything.
"Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister. Tell him that he is not qualified to refuse my words" Yun Xuan was a little curious about the owner of this burrow, and the man in black obviously knew his identity. knew that he was the prince, but he had to nod his head to see that person.
This shows that this person's identity will not be lower than his identity as a prince, although the peach blossom forest is very beautiful, but to live here all the year round, away from the red dust, Yun Xuan is unwilling, and most people in the world will not be willing.
This further proves Yun Xuan's guess that this person must be a master outside the world, and he is the lucky one who met this master by mistake.
It seems that even God is on his side, so why worry about big things.
However, the more withdrawn the master, the more arrogant the temper in the face of those who come here, intentionally or unintentionally. I definitely won't meet them one by one, otherwise it will be too cheap, and the meaning of seclusion in the mountains and forests will be lost.
Yun Xuan was silent for a while and said, such an arrogant master, except for the so-called fate, it is very difficult to impress him. Yun Xuan had no choice but to continue to pretend to be forked, but fortunately, Yun Xuan was also skilled in this matter, without the slightest sense of disobedience.
"Wait a minute" The man in black frowned, then stepped lightly on the rock, and disappeared in front of Yun Xuan's eyes in a few breaths.
If Yun Xuan hadn't had some understanding of the martial arts of this era, he would have shouted hell a long time ago. From here to the mountains, not counting these twists and turns, the height of the top and bottom is also tens of meters high.
The man in black disappeared in a few breaths, and the top of the mountain was vacated, which showed the high level of light skills and deep internal strength of this man in black. Yun Xuan was a little lucky, fortunately he didn't pose as a prince, if he met a violent temper, he wouldn't want to die.
"This big brother, I don't know what to call it" Yun Xuan looked at the man in black in front of him with a cheap smile, being able to guard this place with that person, obviously the martial arts will not be too low.
"I see that this eldest brother is handsome and extraordinary, and he is magnificent, I don't know if the younger brother has the honor to invite the eldest brother to have a drink" Yun Xuan looked at the motionless man in black and continued.
"Big brother, I can't hide it, although this is the first time we have met, but the eldest brother gives the younger brother a sense of closeness. The younger brother is afraid and wants to worship the eldest brother as a brother of the opposite sex, share the difficulties and share the blessings......"
Yun Xuan's mouth was tired, but the man in black was still indifferent, and he didn't even raise his eyelids, Yun Xuan was a little annoyed. If it weren't for the martial arts of the man in black, Yun Xuan would have liked him, in terms of pretending to be forked, you are this.
Yun Xuan didn't bother himself anymore, so he simply didn't speak and waited quietly for that person.
And on the side of Yun Xuan, a hundred meters away from the courtyard, there is a leafy branch, the branches and leaves are sparse, on a thumb-thick root branch, there is a person, who is independent.
"Please" Just when Yun Xuan was bored, the figure in black appeared, and he came to Yun Xuan in a flash.
Walking up to the top of the mountain, you will see an ordinary thatched house, and around the circle, an ordinary table appears not far from Yun Xuan, with a yellowish paper on the table, an inkstone next to it, and a few brushes in the pen holder.
Yun Xuan was a little curious, this terrain should not be so flat, at least there will not be such a large area, it should be man-made here. Being able to occupy this beautiful place as his own territory, there are two attendants with strong martial arts at the foot of the mountain, plus the house of the highest standard in this world, Yun Xuan is very excited in his heart, this time he has met the treasure.
Yun Xuan walked in and saw that there was a word written on the paper, half a word to be exact. Yun Xuan touched the paper on the desktop, especially the small logo under the paper, which made Yun Xuan's heart shrink.
"Little friend, do you want to see me?" Just as Yun Xuan was pondering, a vicissitudes of voice came from behind him.
"You are the master of this place" Yun Xuan looked back, it was an old man over half a hundred years old, with a weathered face, gray hair, two deep-set eyes, deep and bright, and shining all the time.
It's not simple, it's not simple, this is Yun Xuan's evaluation of this old man, this feeling was experienced by Yun Xuan in his previous life, in those giant crocodiles who seemed to be retired, but in fact they were obscure.
"Hahaha, it's just you and me here, it should be me" The old man laughed, he hadn't seen such an interesting young man for a long time. It's been more than ten years since I've been here, and it's the first time I've seen someone come up.
"It's nothing, it's just that I saw someone here, and I was a little curious, so let's take a look" Before knowing the old man's temperament and character, Yun Xuan would not say his purpose, and playing with this kind of person depends on whose hand the initiative is.
"And how did you feel when you saw it?" The old man asked.
"Burrow, table, old man, interesting old man" Yun Xuan shrugged, extremely ordinary.
"Haha, interesting, do you regret seeing me, a bad old man?" The old man continued.
"Regrets? Why regret it? What about you? Living alone in this place, lonely, regret "If regret is useful, will there be so many regrets in this world?
"I, I forgot, I've been here for a long time, so long that I can't even remember who I am" The old man's eyes were full of memories, and his expression was lonely.
"Hahaha, interesting" It's a pity, you have a story and I don't have wine, otherwise you can listen to it well, and listen to more life stories of experienced seniors, which is also a way to enhance experience.
A smart person must be a person who is good at listening, especially those who seem to be extraordinary old people, and must listen to their stories, which contain rich philosophies and wisdom that can make people avoid detours.
There are many reasons why Yun Xuan in his previous life was able to mix in so many people, but there are two people who can't do without, a wanderer and a nobleman.
Yun Xuan still remembers the first time he met the wandering old man, when he was doing a barbecue, the weather was not very good that day, there was no business, and a wandering old man came over.
Seeing this, Yun Xuan gave him some food, and he didn't know what was going on, Yun Xuan felt that he had some similarities with the wandering old man, so he invited him to raise a glass and drink together.
While chatting with the old man, the old man's words exploded in Yun Xuan's mind like a lightning bolt. At that moment, Yun Xuan seemed to see a door.
So Yun Xuan resolutely closed the barbecue stall and walked to the north drift, and it was this time that the north drift made Yun Xuan walk on the other side of success.
"It's a pity," the old man asked curiously, how many years had he been led by a young man.
"You have a story, I don't have wine, so I'm not happy"
