Following Zhao Xuan, Sun Wuji had a lot of questions.

After Zhao Xuan came out of the Yellow Mansion, he seemed to have forgotten about going to the Valley of the Holy Spirit. I saw the mountain goods shop in Nanbu Castle and asked about the price of various goods.

In a shop specializing in collecting animal skins, Zhao Xuan chatted with the boss for most of the day.

Sun Wuji was waiting at the door, a little anxious, but it was not easy to urge, so he could only be in a hurry.

Most of the people in Nanwu City are local Yao people, because they are relatively remote and have little contact with the outside world, so they have a bit of kinship with each other.

The state of Chu wanted to assign Nanwu City to its territory several times, but there were mountains to block it, and several attempts ended in failure. Nominally, Nam Bu Castle is under the jurisdiction of the Nam Viet Kingdom, but in reality, Nam Bu Castle is an autonomous town. Although Nanyue is more convenient than Chu in terms of transportation, the distance is more than twice as far as Chu from Nanwu City, so Nanyue's jurisdiction over Nanwu City seems to be nothing, and only when Chu wants to take it for itself will it remember that this place belongs to itself and will stop it.

Nanwu City to the east is thousands of miles across the Chu land, southwest is the inaccessible 100,000 mountains, Nanwu City as the first stop of the 100,000 mountains and the Spring and Autumn Continent, the people here have both the ritual and music traditions from the Spring and Autumn Continent, as well as the primitive wildness of the Nanban tribe.

Most people were extra wary of outsiders, and Sun Wou-Ki, who was standing on the street, noticed that many people were staring at him from time to time, as if they were looking at a prey.

Because the people of Nanbu Castle are not bound by the law, coupled with the perennial hunting, they are addicted to killing. There are many people who die in a brawl in Nanbu Castle every year, and sometimes it happens that they fight each other for a prey.

This kind of ill-intentioned gaze made him feel unhappy, and shouted at Zhao Xuan: "Brother Zhao, go back!" ”

Zhao Xuan didn't know what to say to the shopkeeper, and the two laughed.

At this time, Huang Yun took the blue cloth bag that Zhao Xuan had left in the Huang Mansion before, and chased after him, followed by a young woman holding a long sword, wearing clothes that were not locals, but a pink robe, her steps were light but sturdy, and she looked like a person who practiced qi.

Huang Yun smiled and said hello to Sun Wuji, walked into the store and returned the blue cloth bag to Zhao Xuan.

Zhao Xuan's eyes lit up when he saw the girl in pink, rushed out of the store, and said with a smile: "Cousin, are you back?" ”

The girl in pink smiled and said, "Cousin, I haven't seen you for a long time......"

"Let's go! Go to the house, your cousin will definitely be very happy to see you......" Zhao Xuan said hello to the shopkeeper, pulled up the woman in pink and walked home.

Sun Wuji walked behind, looking at the three people in front of him, laughing and laughing, and became more and more curious about Zhao Xuan.

In the thatched courtyard, Zhao Ling, who saw a few people, was stunned for a moment, then raised her hand to block the dazzling sunlight, confirmed it again, and then excitedly threw down the animal skin in her hand, trotted over, grabbed the hand of the woman in pink and jumped up, and said happily: "Cousin, long time no see!" When did you come back? ”

The woman in pink was also very excited, took her cousin's hand, and entered the courtyard, and the two sat down at the square table in the courtyard and began to chat.

Huang Yun complained to Zhao Xuan with some grievances, "My cousin didn't say hello as if she didn't see me, she didn't ......say hello."

Zhao Xuan patted Huang Yun's head lightly and said with a smile: "Stinky boy, you are in Nanwu every day, you are at my house for more than ten days a month, how many years has my cousin been out?" ”

Huang Yun grinned, stopped talking, and ran into the courtyard.

Sun Wuji looked at the scene of the deep love between the brothers and sisters in the courtyard, and couldn't help but think of Wudang. He was taken to the mountain by his master when he was a child, he didn't remember his parents, and he didn't know if he had biological brothers and sisters, so he had long regarded Wudang as his home.

Thinking about it, I can't help but feel a little sad, although Wudang also has many brothers and sisters, and the feelings are also very deep, but the warmth of the world where blood is thicker than water is not comparable to the feelings between brothers and sisters. He didn't remember his parents, and Master never told him about his background. Many times, he never thinks about these things, but when he sees the touching warmth of the world, he still can't help but feel sad.

Standing outside the courtyard, looking at the mountains covered by dense forests in the distance, I hesitated.

After a long time, Zhao Ling quietly walked behind him and asked in a low voice, "Brother Sun, what are you looking at?" ”

Sun Wuji turned his head and saw Zhao Ling's clean and fair face, smiled, and said, "When I see you, I think of senior brother......

Zhao Ling knew the purpose of the Wudang disciple in front of him to come to Nanwu, and he also knew that it might stimulate him today, so he smiled, glanced back at his cousin, and asked, "Did he tell you how to go to the Holy Spirit Valley?" ”

Zhao Ling must have meant Huang Shenyi, Sun Wuji shook his head.

"Did my brother quarrel with him again?" Zhao Ling seemed to have guessed the result, so she wanted to confirm her guess.

Sun Wuji shook his head and said softly: "They didn't quarrel, it's just that Doctor Huang refused to help."

"Hmm" Zhao Ling was not surprised, and said leisurely: "I shouldn't let my brother go, he will never help with our family's affairs...... It was once upon a time, and it certainly is the same today......"

"Is Doctor Huang your uncle?" Sun Wuji couldn't help but ask the doubts in his heart.

"Hmm" Zhao Ling nodded, was silent for a long time, and suddenly frowned: "I know he loves us very much, but he looks down on my father, so he never expresses his love......

Sun Wuji listened silently, without bothering him, or at this time, he didn't know what to say!

"My parents went into the mountains to collect medicine, but never came out, my brother ran to his house, knelt in the yard of his house for three days, said that he didn't want to help find anything, grandfather, cousin, no one persuaded it, since then, my brother hated him very much......" Zhao Ling's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally she couldn't hear clearly, the two lines of tears slipped silently, Sun Wuji was a little at a loss, and wanted to help her wipe her tears several times, but she was overcome by reason.

"Cousin, what are you doing? You can't even hear ...... shouting," the woman in pink came over and grabbed Zhao Ling's arm and said coquettishly.

Zhao Ling calmed down and introduced with a smile: "This Brother Sun is a disciple of Wudang, and he is also a cultivator."

When the girl in pink heard that the stranger in front of her was a disciple of Wudang, she immediately put away her naughty and lively appearance, became ladylike, hugged her fists and said: "I am Huang Bailing, a disciple of Cangwu, and I am fortunate to be ......."

Sun Wuji hugged his fists and said: "Wudang disciple Sun Wuji, fortunately ......"

Cangwu Zodiac is the enlightenment of Taoism, that is, Li Boyang, the first person of the Spring and Autumn Dao System, also respects the master of the Zodiac, Cangwu and Wudang also have a relationship, because of the age, the two families rarely communicate, but push forward for a few hundred years, the two are also the same door.

Emperor Xuanwu, the founder of Wudang, was a disciple of Cangwu Zodiac, but later founded his own sect.

Cangwu is in the border land of Chu State, the mountains here are majestic and wonderful, the aura is overflowing, and it is one of the famous mountains in the world.

Cangwu Huangdaozun's heaven and earth law, the ancient emperor Xuanyuan as the respect, not only the Taoist law, but also the medical skills. Cangwu's "Yin Fu Sutra" is the source of the world's Taoism, and it is also the Taoist classic that all monks dream of. It is said that the Zodiac is extremely harsh in accepting disciples, and the person who apprentices must not only have spiritual roots, but also know how to heal, but also have to go through the three major tests of Cangwu Mountain Washing Pool, Kaode Cave, and Bone Stream, that is to say, those who can worship Cangwu are the dragons and phoenixes among the people, and they are also people who have a great relationship with Taoism.

Once the Cangwu master disciple completes his studies, he will definitely be able to become one of the top two masters on the Spring and Autumn Continent.

Sun Wuji looked at the girl in front of him who was much younger than himself, and couldn't help but admire, and said again: "The girl turned out to be a high-ranking disciple, disrespectful and disrespectful......"

The pink-clothed girl smiled and asked, "Senior Brother Sun, why did you come here?" ”

When Sun Wuji heard the pink-clothed girl call her senior brother, she immediately understood that she also knew the origin of Wudang and Cangwu, and said with a smile: "Senior Sister Huang, I can't hide it, I have a senior brother who fell into witchcraft some time ago, and I just came here to find out the news." ”

"Witchcraft?" The girl in pink frowned.

"What's wrong? Cousin" Zhao Ling saw the sudden change in the face of the girl in pink, and said a little uneasy.

"I came down the mountain this time because I was ordered by the master, and the master said that there was a change in the 100,000 mountains, let me go down the mountain to inquire, is it the ghost clan of the Holy Spirit Valley?"

"Did your master tell you what happened to the 100,000 Great Mountain?" Sun Wuji asked hurriedly as if grasping at a life-saving straw.

"A few days ago, there was news from the same door at the bottom of the mountain, saying that a strange beast came out of the 100,000 mountains and killed a lot of people for the disaster of Nan'an City," the girl in pink replied.

"Where is Nan'an City?" Sun Wuji asked.

"Nan'an is an important town in South Vietnam, thousands of miles away, in the southwest direction of the 100,000 Great Mountains" The girl in pink glanced at Sun Wuji and asked softly: "Senior Brother Sun, are you interested in going to Nan'an?" ”

Sun Wuji looked at Zhao Ling, a little embarrassed: "I still have to go to the Valley of the Holy Spirit, I'm afraid it's ......."

"It's easier to enter the 100,000 mountains from Nan'an, the Valley of the Holy Spirit must be in the depths of the mountains, if you enter from here, it's a bit of a contradiction," the girl in pink reminded.

"Do you know where the Valley of the Holy Spirit is?" Sun Wuji asked with some excitement.

The pink-clothed girl shook her head and said in a low voice: "Although I don't know the specific location, I can be sure that the Holy Spirit Valley must be in the depths of the 100,000 Great Mountains, and the exotic beasts must have something to do with the ghost clan."

"Okay, I'll accompany you to Nan'an City......" Sun Wuji no longer hesitated, and readily agreed.

"Cousin, are you reluctant?" The girl in pink leaned mischievously on Zhao Ling and was coquettish.

Zhao Ling leaned her head against the girl, and said softly: "You are about to leave just now, of course I can't bear it!" ”

The girl smiled: "Are you reluctant to me, or are you reluctant to Senior Brother Sun?" ”

Zhao Ling blushed and scolded: "Dead girl, what nonsense are you talking about? If you talk nonsense, I'll beat you......"

The girl in pink stuck out her tongue and ran away with a smile. Zhao Ling glanced at Sun Wuji with affection, turned around and walked into the courtyard.
