Chapter 35
Out of Yuanhua Palace, there were already stars and moons outside.
Cicadas are singing on the mountain.
The three of them spent more than a dozen hours in that dungeon before they felt a little hungry in their stomachs.
Chen Meng simply took the two of them and walked around the mountains, looking for a few rabbit holes, and caught a few rabbits to roast and eat.
The third child has been chopping firewood in the mountains for a living since he was a child, and he is a good hand at finding food.
The second master's effort to turn blood into a needle saves the effort of making bows and arrows.
She now has a blade hidden in her hand at all times, and when she needs to, she can kill people by simply slashing her finger and throwing out drops of blood.
Chen Meng didn't know anything about hunting, so he had to light a fire on the side.
About an hour later, the three of them could barely fill their stomachs after eating six hares.
The three masters have been complaining that they forgot to bring alcohol when they went out.
Chen Meng felt that the roasted rabbit did not have cumin, and the taste was a little light.
Only the second child has the best appearance.
She didn't complain, she only gnawed two rabbit legs and went to the tree to keep watch.
After eating, Chen Meng began to study how to get to Maoshan.
The peak where Yuanhua Palace is located is not far from the main peak of Maoshan Mountain, and there seems to be a rope bridge between the two peaks, but now it has fallen into disrepair, and only a few wooden stakes remain.
Before, they were brought by the Daoist who led them through the wall technique, and now they naturally can't go back the same way.
It seems that I had to go down this peak first, and then go to the main peak.
It's a much longer journey.
The three of them traveled starry night and night, watching the sun rise in the east, and finally arrived at the current Taoist temple of the Maoshan sect again in the morning.
Yuanfu Wanning Palace.
The usher who took them to Maoshan before seemed to have just woken up, and when he saw the three of them coming, he asked curiously:
"The three of them spent the night in the Yuanhua Palace?"
Chen Meng complained in his heart about this Taoist who couldn't be delivered, and he didn't answer his words, and reported a boxing do:
"I ask to see the head of your family, the three of us have something important to repay."
"Yes." When the man heard this, he knew that they would find something in their line, and he did not dare to slack off, and hurried into the temple.
After a while, he came out again, led the three of them to a room in the Taoist temple, and introduced:
"This is the abode of the master, and you can go in."
Chen Meng didn't talk to him and pushed the door in.
I saw that this room was full of bookshelves full of books.
I don't know what kind of incense is smoked in the house, and it smells fragrant.
Inside, there was a futon, on which an old Taoist with a long white beard was sitting cross-legged.
He closed his eyes, heard someone approaching, and asked:
"But the Chen master of the Raptors Village is here?"
It seems that this is the young man with the sleeves.
Chen Meng was also very polite and replied to him:
"Exactly."
Sleeve Qingzi opened his eyes, but did not reply, but said to the bookshelf beside him:
"Shinto, you go out first, I have something to say with this Chen master."
Shinto?
When Chen Meng heard this name, he felt inexplicably familiar.
The bookshelf was quite tall, and it was full of green leather booklets, and there was a person standing behind it, which was really not visible from the outside.
After a while, the man walked out.
This person's appearance is quite exquisite, and he is wearing a Taoist robe, which seems to fit well.
The only strange thing is that the man has two strings of red rope hanging from his shoulder, and the ropes are covered with yellow charms, which look like a sealed zombie.
Chen Meng had fought with the disciples of the Maoshan faction when he was in the cottage, and knew that this was the characteristic of the Maoshan faction.
Hang the charm on your shoulder and you can invoke the charm you need as quickly as possible during battle.
It's just that it's indecent, so it's only used by the player.
"Shinto...... It's been a long time, is this person a mad god? ”
Mad Shendao didn't know what kind of task he had received, so he ran here early in the morning to tidy up the bookshelves.
It's really not like a family reunion.
Chen Meng wanted to laugh a little, but he couldn't say anything in front of the young man, and silently watched this person go out.
I don't know what Mad Shendao's expression will be after knowing that the hidden reward of Yuanhua Palace has been taken away.
Look at the sleeve Qingzi again.
He stood up by this time and saluted the three of them:
"Master Chen, I heard that you have been to my Yuanhua Palace, I don't know if you have found it?"
Chen Meng didn't grind with him, and directly took out the golden pill, and said:
"The demon in the cave of your Yuanhua Palace, I have killed it, this is what he dropped."
Sleeve Qingzi looked at this golden pill, and his expression changed quietly, but then he returned to his original state, and said with a smile:
"Thank you to Lord Chen, Poor Dao made a promise before, those who can kill demons will be rewarded with a hundred taels of gold. Poor Dao, send someone to your village. He will come to the door one day to give thanks. ”
After that, the chief got up and was about to see off the three of them.
This is an eviction order for Chen Meng.
Chen Meng naturally didn't leave, waved his hand and said:
"Wait! But I don't want any money from you, but I have some questions for you. ”
When Qingzi heard this, he didn't think he was rude, sat back on the futon, and still said with a smile:
"If the owner of the village has any questions, just ask. The poor road must know everything. ”
After all, he is the head of a faction, and he has a bit of a grandmaster temperament between his conversations.
Chen Meng was not polite to him, and asked straight to the point:
"That demon's name is Gu Ming, is it from your Maoshan faction?"
"Gu Ming......" Sleeve Qingzi heard the name, and I don't know what I remembered:
"Xuan Gu looks forward to the year of Si Nian, and Huang Wen Fu Ning sleeves. He's nine generations older than me. ”
He said this indistinctly, and Chen Meng didn't understand.
"And is he one of your factions?"
The sleeved Qingzi just nodded in acquiescence and did not answer directly.
Instead, he stretched out a finger and pointed at the golden pill and asked:
"Does the owner of the village know what this is?"
Although Chen Meng has not read many novels, he still knows this bit of common sense:
"This is Jin Dan, what your Taoists call the knot, and this is what comes out in the end."
Sleeve Qingzi nodded:
"The owner of the village is really well-informed, and he admires the poor road."
Chen Meng was in no mood to listen to his sycophants, and then asked:
"Is this Jindan stage monk considered powerful in your sect?"
There was something strange in his heart.
If this Maoshan faction really has the art of immortality, why has no one ever mentioned it on the player forum?
Seeing that he was straightforward, he no longer engaged in those red tapes, and shook his head with a smile:
"Don't say it's Jindan, I can't even find anyone who can build a foundation in Maoshan now."
After the foundation has been built, it is Jindan, and this cultivation system is also very classic.
Chen Meng guessed and asked:
"Is it because there is no aura in heaven and earth, so you can't cultivate immortals?"
Gu Ming of the underground mentioned this.
But Sleeve Qingzi denied it:
"The aura between heaven and earth is endless, and what has no aura is just the cave where the ancestor lives."
The ancestor in his mouth should be referring to Gu Ming, listening to the meaning of his previous words, that Gu Ming seems to be several generations older than him.
Cave, of course, refers to the cave.
Chen Meng then asked:
"Then since you have aura, why can't you cultivate immortality?"
Sleeve Qingzi pondered for a while, and said:
"Master Chen, this matter is very important, do you really want to listen to it?"
What is at stake?
Chen Meng only felt that he had been selling Guanzi all the time, and he listened to the crowd:
"You just say it, a few words, what's there to be afraid of?"
"It's ...... anyway"
Sleeve Qingzi sighed when he heard this, and then said:
"The reason why people in my sect can't cultivate the law of immortals is because those relevant classics have been destroyed by the imperial court thousands of years ago."
Gu Ming also said this, but he couldn't say it clearly.
"Why is the court bothering you? And thousands of years ago, the Maoshan faction's classics are still there, and the strength should not be weak, so how can it lose to the imperial court? ”
After hearing this question, Sleeve Qingzi couldn't answer:
"The reason for this is really unknown. The events of this thousand years ago were handed down by the masters of the Maoshan faction in successive dynasties, and there are many confusions in them, which I cannot explain. ”
Seeing him like this, he should be telling the truth.
In the final analysis, this matter is related to the Bloody Cloak Building.
Chen Meng will inevitably have contact with Huo Xiu in the future, and he may be able to find clues from him at that time.
Let's put this question aside here.
Chen Meng had another question to ask him.
"The one under the Yuanhua Palace is clearly the immortal master in your sect, why do you say that he is a demon and still find someone to kill him?"
