Meng Xiuyuan has been in this world since he came, and roughly speaking, he has only been to Wudang Mountain a few times.

Two of them were to save Zhang Wuji, one was to save Song Qingshu, and one was to save Hu Qingniu.

Now he's going down the mountain again, but this time, it's finally just for himself.

……

"Master, how long will it take for us to come back this time?"

Zhou Zhiruo asked with some curiosity while happily sorting out Meng Xiuyuan's luggage.

"I can't tell, at least three or five years......

Meng Xiuyuan was holding a small booklet in his hand and reading it carefully, his brows furrowed slightly, obviously he was having something distressed. Hearing Zhou Zhiruo's sudden question, he breathed a sigh of relief, closed the book and replied.

"Have you been there for so long...... Then I'll have to get things ready. ”

Zhou Zhiruo was surprised when he heard this, but he didn't feel any dissatisfaction because of this, but the speed of tidying up in his hands became faster and faster, thinking that he would free up some time and say goodbye to his parents later.

For this thirteen-year-old girl, who is at the age of being active, leaving her family and parents is no longer as painful as it used to be.

On the contrary, hearing that Meng Xiuyuan was finally willing to take her down the mountain, Zhou Zhiruo was still faintly excited in his heart.

At this moment, two voices outside the door came from far and near:

"Little junior brother" "Little uncle! ”

Meng Xiuyuan pushed it open and saw that sure enough, it was Song Yuanqiao, Song Qingshu, father and son, who were already standing at the door.

"Senior brother, Qingshu, why are you here?"

Song Yuanqiao shook his head when he heard this, and said to Meng Xiuyuan with a little reproach:

"Little junior brother, why did you suddenly have the idea of going down the mountain, and you have been gone for so long.

If it weren't for Qingshu who came to me and told me about it, I still wouldn't know. ”

Meng Xiuyuan rubbed his hands a little embarrassed, and explained:

"This plan has actually been in place for a long time, but today's departure is indeed a temporary idea, so I still think about going to you to say goodbye later......

By the way, what's the matter with you holding so many things, could it be that Qingshu has changed his mind and wants to go to the Kunlun Mountains with me again? ”

As he spoke, he looked at the father and son in front of him each carrying a big burden, and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

On this trip to Kunlun, he was the first to ask Song Qingshu and invite him to go with him.

Those wild fruits and peaches in the green valley of Kunlun Mountain are extremely beneficial to people's practice, and Meng Xiuyuan went this time, that is, to improve his cultivation.

Such a good thing, he himself will not forget his good teacher and nephew.

But when Song Qing invited him in writing, he hesitated for a long time, and finally chose to refuse.

Rather than going to Kunlun Mountain to practice martial arts, Song Qingshu preferred to stay on Wudang Mountain and accompany his father Song Yuanqiao to preside over many affairs within the Wudang faction.

In this regard, Meng Xiuyuan chose to respect his opinion, and was even very happy that Song Qingshu had found his life goal.

After all, according to the current form of development, maybe his father and son will be the next two heads of the Wudang faction in the future. In this case, perhaps Song Qingshu's management ability is what this Wudang faction needs most in the future.

As for martial arts, with the improved "Wudang Jiuyang Gong", and with Song Qingshu's own qualifications, it will not be too bad after all.

Song Yuanqiao obviously agreed with his son's idea, and in the face of Meng Xiuyuan's inquiry, he just shook his head:

"Qingshu won't go if he doesn't go, it's good to stay on Wudang Mountain.

This burden is full of things that we have prepared for you, and you may be able to use them on the road if you take them. ”

Meng Xiuyuan took the burden and opened it to take a look, and sure enough, they were all for food, all neatly arranged together. Although they are not precious, it is obvious that a lot of thought has been put into preparing them in such detail and properly.

Meng Xiu saw that this was exactly the same big burden as four years ago, and couldn't help but feel a little emotion in his heart, Senior Brother, this was obviously like he hadn't grown up, and he wanted to prepare everything for him.

However, he did not refuse Song Yuanqiao's kindness, but happily responded and took the burden in Song Qingshu's hand as well.

"Haha, okay. Senior brother, rest assured, when I get to the place, I will find a way to send a letter back to report my safety. ”

Song Yuanqiao nodded when he heard this, expressing his satisfaction, but after a while, he couldn't help but ask again.

"Although you have high martial arts, you need to be more careful when you go on the road with three children......

By the way, Master, did you tell him that you were going to go down the mountain? ”

Meng Xiuyuan smiled slightly and replied to Song Yuanqiao:

"Don't worry, senior brother, I know it all in my heart.

It was only at the master's place that I talked to him about martial arts issues, and then I had the idea of going to Kunlun Mountain to practice martial arts.

Naturally, he was the first to talk to him about these things.

Originally, I also wanted Master to go to Kunlun with me, but he didn't want to, and I couldn't force ......."

The fact is that the reason why Meng Xiuyuan is in such a hurry is indeed influenced by his master Zhang Sanfeng.

After he and Master discussed the issue of "compressing true qi", Master took out a booklet in which he summed up all his thoughts in this regard.

After Meng Xiuyuan came back, he carefully studied the booklet several times, and found that as Zhang Sanfeng said, although he had studied some ways in this area, he was still far from being truly successful and able to compress and liquefy true qi.

At present, according to Zhang Sanfeng's method, it is indeed possible to compress the true qi to a certain extent, but this can only be used for a short period of time and a small part of the true qi, making it denser, and using it to increase the power of the move in one move and one attack.

If you want to go one step further, maintain it for a long time, or completely liquefy the true qi, you can't do it.

Moreover, it is easy to injure itself when practicing, and if you are not careful, you will leave many dark wounds like Zhang Sanfeng, which is considered to be a very obvious side effect.

In this regard, Meng Xiuyuan's thought is that maybe his physical foundation is not solid enough, so he will encounter such a dead end. You need to use the "Fitness Technique" to further strengthen your body, so you can try to compress your true qi again.

Just like the liquefied gas tank must be made of steel, not wood or stone.

The stronger the container, the higher the pressure it can withstand.

Since there is no subtle way, it is naturally better to try it in the simplest and most straightforward way.

Anyway, even if it doesn't work out in the end, this process of body strengthening is already a kind of gain, and it will never be said to be useless.

In order to improve his cultivation efficiency, Meng Xiuyuan thought of going to the Kunlun Mountain Green Valley to cultivate for a while.

He originally wanted to take Zhang Sanfeng with him, so that the master could also eat the fairy peach and exotic fruits and enjoy the benefits

But after Zhang Sanfeng listened to his suggestion, he refused without thinking about it, saying that there was no need for it.

Because just like the master said before, at this time, he and Meng Xiuyuan have already embarked on two different forks in the road of martial arts.

Meng Xiuyuan pays more attention to internal cultivation, and still wants to take the path of overwhelming others. I hope that I can use this method of "compressing true qi" to break through my own limits, so that the true qi that I am about to accumulate and complete will have a qualitative change, and I can even continue to walk on the path of internal cultivation.

For Zhang Sanfeng, what he values more is the creation of perception in martial arts and the breakthrough in martial arts theory.

Creating that set of "Tai Chi" martial arts as soon as possible is what he is most concerned about at the moment.

As for what fairy peach and exotic fruit, it doesn't matter if he eats it or not.

Therefore, Meng Xiuyuan naturally respected Master's opinion and did not mention the matter again.

……

In the afternoon of the same day, Meng Xiuyuan took Zhou Zhiruo, Zhang Wuji, and A Li down the mountain together.

Song Qingshu and Song Yuanqiao's father and son knew that Meng Xiuyuan didn't like to leave, so they didn't come to see them off, but just prepared a carriage for them in advance at the foot of the mountain.

The mountains are high and the rivers are far away, and with three and a half children, Meng Xiuyuan naturally can't just rely on walking as before.

In this regard, Meng Xiuyuan naturally accepted it gladly.

After a few months along the way, the overall situation was quite stable.

Even if they occasionally encounter some thieves who are not long-eyed, most of Zhou Zhiruo's three people can handle it, and it can be regarded as a way to temper them.

Until I finally arrived at Hongmei Villa, I didn't encounter anything worth writing about.

"Uncle Junior, will we live here in the future?"

Zhang Wuji looked at the majestic mountain villa in front of him and couldn't help but be a little happy.

He had heard the story of Meng Xiuyuan and Song Qingshu in this Zhu Wu series of villages, and he was very curious about the Zhuangzi described by Song Qingshu as "extremely luxurious", and he finally saw it with his own eyes today.

Unexpectedly, Meng Xiuyuan shook his head, and even denied his conjecture:

"No, let's just stay here for one night and rest, and we'll go back into the mountain tomorrow."

In fact, when Song Qingshu was dealing with the property left by the Zhu Wu family, he had already sold the Hongmei Villa to the nearby merchants, and the money obtained had almost been used up by Meng Xiu in various disaster relief in recent years.

Being able to stay here for one night for a while is already the result of the polite hospitality of the businessmen and the people in Meng Xiuyuan's face.

Zhang Wuji was not disappointed when he heard this, after all, he was not the kind of child who grew up pampered, he had experienced the harsh environment on Ice and Fire Island for ten years.

Now I want to live in this Red Plum Villa, but I have only listened to Song Qingshu for so long, and I am just a little curious. After one night, the freshness passed, and he was no longer attached.

Early the next morning, Meng Xiuyuan set off with his three children and walked to the depths of the Kunlun Mountains according to the route in his memory.

After walking like this for a few hours, at the foot of a towering snow-capped mountain, he suddenly stopped, looked up at the panoramic view of the snow-capped mountain, as if he was looking at something.

"Meng Daxia, you came all the way to this Kunlun Mountain Range, didn't you just find such a place to practice?"

Ah Li looked at the surrounding trees and mountains that were not anything special, and saw that Meng Xiuyuan had no intention of going further, he was very puzzled in his heart, and couldn't help but ask.

In fact, it is not only Ah Zhizhong who thinks so, but Zhou Zhiruo and Zhang Wuji also think so.

When they set off, Meng Xiuyuan said that he wanted to take them to a "cave blessed land" in Kunlun Mountain to concentrate on cultivation, so they were looking forward to it all the way.

Now that I look at this empty forest, there is naturally a huge gap with my psychological expectations. It's just that unlike Ah Li, in order to take care of Meng Xiuyuan's emotions, they didn't say this.

Meng Xiuyuan smiled when he heard this, and said suddenly:

"Don't worry, I didn't lie to you. The treasure I am looking for is in this mountain. ”

"...... in the mountains" The three children looked at the towering snow-capped mountains with steep rock walls, and they couldn't turn their brains for a while.

Before they could figure it out, Meng Xiuyuan first pulled up the slender Zhou Zhiruo and held him in his arms, and then jumped up towards the steep mountain wall with a little tiptoe.

In the past two years, Meng Xiuyuan's kung fu has improved again. In addition, he chose a relatively safe path up the mountain at this time, so even if he climbed this snow-capped mountain with a person, there was still not much risk.

After three trips back and forth like this, Meng Xiuyuan sent the three children into the snow-capped mountains and green valleys in turn.

Like when Meng Xiuyuan first came, the three children were quickly attracted by the quiet scenery in this valley after experiencing the thrill of climbing over the snowy mountain, and they were stunned for a while.

Only Meng Xiuyuan, the old driver, picked a fruit from the tree on the side, took a few bites, felt the subtle warm current spreading in his stomach, and couldn't help but nod secretly.

Sure enough, the miraculous effect was still there.

……

In the next few days, Meng Xiuyuan did not rush to start formal cultivation, but chose to take his three children to cut down trees around and build a few huts not far from the waterhole waterfall.

After all, they should have stayed in this valley for a long time this time, and they couldn't just sleep on the floor like he had last time he came.

Fortunately, the valley is like spring all year round, even in the cold winter and the moon, these houses do not need to be too finely built, just roughly prevent wind and rain.

The construction went smoothly, and soon all four of them were living in their own huts.

In addition, the scenery here is beautiful, and the "spirit fruit" and "spirit fish" are very delicious, so the children accept the life in this valley very quickly, and even live much faster than in Wudang Mountain.

Seeing this, Meng Xiuyuan also put his mind at ease, no longer caring about these daily trivial matters, leaving them to handle by themselves, and instead plunged into his own cultivation.

Every day, except for the occasional instruction in the martial arts of the three children, the rest of the time is either refining the true qi, or strengthening the body with the "Fitness Technique".

And so on and so forth, and months passed in a flash.

It wasn't until this day that Meng Xiuyuan glanced at the manual he used to record the date when he got up early, and knew that the time had come, so he made an exception and did not go to the waterfall to practice, but instead used light skills to climb the snow-capped mountains and went straight out of the Green Valley.

Ran all the way to the gate of Hongmei Villa, and sure enough, there was a graceful beauty waiting for him there.

"Mrs. Han, you are very punctual this year.........

Meng Xiuyuan looked at the slightly dark complexion on the purple-shirted Dragon King's face, and knew that she must have been sealed by her true qi a year ago, which caused her internal condition to be not very good at this time, so when she spoke, she thought about helping her unlock the acupoint first and then chat.

Unexpectedly, before he could get closer, he saw that Dai Qisi first pulled out a little girl who looked to be in her early ten years old from behind, leaned over and smiled and said to her:

"Xiao Zhao, this is the Meng Shaoxia I told you.

He's our great benefactor, so why don't you hurry up and meet him? ”
