Chapter 2 Descending the Mountain

On the road, the middle-aged man and the teenager sat in the same car, thinking about having a family relationship with the teenager and enhancing their relationship. But he is in a high position on weekdays, and he is flattered by others, and he thought that he was also an old talker, but he was stunned for a long time and didn't find a topic.

In the midst of his embarrassment, the boy spoke to break the deadlock.

I saw him exhale and close his strength, slowly open his eyes, and his momentum flashed, and gradually returned to calm.

"Ahead must be almost there, right?"

"Yes, the mountain roads here are not easy to walk, and at the current speed, it will take about half an hour to enter the city."

The closer he got, the more nervous the middle-aged man became, although he was accompanied by the apprentice of the old immortal, but he didn't know if he could completely solve the problem.

In the distance, tall buildings have appeared in front of them, looking majestic and tall from a distance, like steel giants with teeth and claws towering on the ground.

The young man pretended to be deep, but he just squinted and skimmed the scenery around him, and he was a little stunned for a while.

"Why is the outside world different from what the old man said?" The young man thought silently in his heart, but he was embarrassed to ask, for him, a young man who had been living in the mountains, except for the old man to tell him about the outside world, he didn't even have a channel to get information, how could he not be curious about what was going on outside.

"Squeak."

After a while, the car stopped in front of a manor, the door opened, and what greeted me was a large black iron gate, the white courtyard wall was as high as the door, and there was an anti-theft net on it.

The middle-aged man walked up to the young man: "Xiao Zhenren, I invite you to come today, mainly because we have encountered some trouble recently. The other party didn't know where to find the master, Li Lin went to test it, and he was not an opponent at all. And the Li family is being restrained again, and they can't send a master over, so I can only ask you to help. ”

After speaking, he hugged a fist and made a salute.

The young man squinted at Li Lin behind him, "It's useless to come here with such a good look." ”

"You!" Li Lin exploded in an instant, this kid said that he was garbage, and it couldn't be described as an insult to him.

The middle-aged man grabbed Li Lin, who was about to step forward, shook his head, and followed the young man into the manor.

It looks like an ordinary house outside, but after entering, there is a cave. The fence surrounds a large lawn with a few maple trees dotted among them, and although they are not arranged according to Taoist formations, there are some feng shui allusions to them.

In the distance, an old man stood in front of the small building in the manor, holding a gold-encrusted cane in both hands. The young man could tell at a glance that it was a staff sword, and the trace of sword aura emanating from it made people shudder.

At this time, the old man also saw the return of several people, except for the middle-aged man and Li Lin, who was still a little lame in the crowd, a young man caught his attention.

This young man is about eighteen or nineteen years old, not too tall, about 1.8 meters, wearing a washed and somewhat whitish cyan gown, slightly thin, with a wooden hairpin tied on his head and his long hair tied together, his delicate face is dotted with a beard that has just emerged, and his eyes have a hint of cynicism, as if he doesn't care about everything that happens around him.

"Fourth, you're back, have you ever asked the old fairy for help?" Although he didn't see the old man in the team, the old man still asked with a glimmer of hope.

"Dad, the old fairy has not asked about the world for many years, and I have never been invited." After that, the fourth elder of the Zhou family, that is, the middle-aged man, shook his head with regret on his face.

"Have you ever given him a token?" The old man didn't give up, and hurriedly asked.

"The messenger handed it over, but his old man still hasn't come down the mountain."

"How's that okay?" The old man's body staggered, and he quickly supported his body with the crutches in his hand.

The fourth elder of the Zhou family hurriedly stepped forward and hugged the old man, "Dad, don't worry, although the old immortal didn't come, we invited his apprentice to go down the mountain to sit in the formation this time, and the chances of winning should be greater." ”

"Oh?" The old man looked down the crowd and seemed to guess the identity of the young man, "Are you talking about this little brother?" ”

Seeing that someone finally noticed him, the young man took two steps forward and arched his hand, "In Xia Shen Xiuwen, on the orders of the family teacher, I am here to help, if there is any trouble, just tell me, I will help you solve it." ”

The young man's name was Shen Xiuwen, and at this time, he was full of infinite curiosity about the outside world, and he stepped forward and spoke.

As soon as the words fell, a sneer came from the room: "Hmph, what a big breath!" ”

I saw a young man in a white suit walking out of it, holding a wine glass in his hand and shaking it slowly.

Shen Xiuwen knew what kind of color this was at a glance, his forehead was high and raised, his eyes were black like pandas, and his cheeks were deeply sunken.

"Zhou Jun, don't be unreasonable!" The old man scolded softly, but there was no hint of blame. Zhou Jun is the strongest person in the Zhou family besides himself, and to a large extent, he can be said to be the next head of the Zhou family.

At the same time, the old man also had resentment in his heart, the jade pendant left by the ancestor said that he could invite the old fairy to help once, such a precious token of human affection, but only in exchange for a half-grown boy, no one felt comfortable.

Shen Xiuwen also saw the meaning of this, a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he said to the old man, "What does this mean, old man?" Master, he is an old man, although I am young, but there are not a lot of people in the association, as for the troubles you mentioned, I dare not say anything else, as long as someone dares to use force, I will take it alone. ”

Shen Xiuwen is very confident, his strength is clear, although he has never seen the enemy of the Zhou family, but since the master let him go down the mountain, he must believe that he can solve it.

"Xiao Zhenren, my Zhou family has been inherited for hundreds of years to have today's glory, how dare I bet all my hopes on you alone." Old Man Zhou shook his head and said in a deep voice, let him pin all his hopes on a young man, which no clan leader would agree.

Shen Xiuwen didn't know how to respond, after all, he was indeed very young, there was no doubt about it, but strength and age were not necessarily proportional. It's like that Li Lin has lived a lot of years, doesn't he still have no power to resist under his own hands.

"I think you better hurry back to the mountain, the Zhou family is a big family, it's not like you can get away with a few tricks." After Zhou Jun finished speaking, he raised his head and drank the wine in the cup, then turned around and entered the hall.

The fourth elder of the Zhou family walked up to the old man, and wanted to explain something, but was pressed back by the old man's hand.

At this time, his face was constantly changing, he believed that the apprentice of the old immortal must be extraordinary, but he didn't dare to gamble with the family, so he naturally took care of it. turned his head to look at Old Man Zhou, and reluctantly stepped aside.

"Hehe, since that's the case, then I won't stay longer, farewell."

Shen Xiuwen smiled faintly, saying that it was false if he was not angry, but if he really wanted to say something back, then he was still a little disdainful, as the so-called summer worm can't talk about ice, well frogs can't talk about the sea, ordinary people can't talk about it, people who really have the ability never rely on the kung fu of the mouth cannon.

Shen Xiuwen turned around to leave, but Li Lin stepped forward to block the way.

"Boy, I thought you were here to help before, so I gave you a little thin noodles, and now that you have stepped out of this door, then when we meet again, I will also let you taste this bone-splitting pain." Li Lin's last sentence was almost said through gritted teeth.

After hearing this, Shen Xiuwen laughed, stepped out of the manor in one step, and walked very freely.

Although he was gone, he was happy, but this disrupted his original plan. Originally, after staying in Zhou's house for a period of time, he could gradually integrate into this society, but now that he is alone, he naturally has to re-plan. However, Shen Xiuwen didn't care too much, and walked out of the range of the manor and walked towards the city.

"Good guy, it turns out that these square pillars are so big, and they actually built the house so high, it's amazing!" Shen Xiuwen stood on the road, looking at the streets where people came and went, and then looked at the towering buildings, only then did he realize that he had really lived in vain for so many years, and he felt like a silly boy entering the city.

"Poof!"

A group of girls passed by here, and when they saw Shen Xiuwen, who was dressed a little strangely, they couldn't help but take a few more looks, but they didn't expect this guy to say such thunderous words again, it was incredible.

"Hey, you can't have crossed over, are you?" The girl and her companions all laughed and bent over, but it wasn't a sarcastic laugh.

"Forehead ......"

Shen Xiuwen didn't know how to answer for a while, such a beautiful and youthful girl actually made him look a little stunned for a while. It was a hot summer, and the girls were basically wearing short skirts and shorts, and their fair thighs were exposed, which may not be strange to others, but it was a great shock to Shen Xiuwen, who had just come down the mountain.

After all, he's still a young man with a lot of blood.

"Huh? Why did you get a nosebleed? ”

The girl who spoke saw Shen Xiuwen's nosebleed down, thinking that it was this hot day, Shen Xiuwen was wearing too much, and it was so hot that she hurriedly took out a tissue from the small bag she was carrying and handed it to Shen Xiuwen.

"Ahhh

Shen Xiuwen took the paper in a panic, blocked his nostrils and fled. While running, he thought about what the master said, "Sure enough, the women under the mountain are all tigers, and they are wearing too little, so that people's hearts can't be calm." ”

Seeing Shen Xiuwen's embarrassed appearance, several girls laughed again, maybe they heard the laughter from behind, maybe they wanted to leave this embarrassing place quickly, Shen Xiuwen's steps were even faster.

"What an interesting person, don't you say it, that little Taoist priest is quite handsome, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and without losing the masculinity of men, although he is still a little immature, but he will definitely be a handsome guy in the future, do you want to catch up and ask for a contact information or something?"

"As long as you talk too much, I think you have moved your spring heart!"

A few girls are walking on the street with a smile, which is a beautiful scenery.

Besides, Shen Xiuwen, who was so sorry at the moment that he really wanted to slap himself twice, and kept reciting the secret of clearing his heart in his heart, so that the picture in his mind was gradually removed.

"Gollum~"

The sound of his stomach as he walked seemed to remind Shen Xiuwen that it was time to eat. He passed by a restaurant that looked pretty good, and when he entered, he first asked for a large bowl of noodles and ordered four or five hard dishes. Wait for the noodles to come up first, finish eating and make a base, then empty all the dishes, and eat two large buckets of rice by the way, then I am satisfied.

"Alas, this week's family is really good, I was invited down from the mountain, not to mention the arrangement, I have to come out to find food by myself." Shen Xiuwen thought as he called the waiter to prepare to settle the bill.

"Hello sir, a total of 470 yuan is consumed, this is the menu, please check." The waitress was amazed at how the thin-looking teenager had managed to pack so much food into her stomach, but her professionalism told her to nod and smile.

"So expensive?!" Shen Xiuwen was taken aback, he didn't spend money on weekdays, it was all arranged by the master, and now when he went out, the master only gave him 200 yuan to press in his pocket in case of emergency. After all, if you follow the people of the Zhou family out, do you have to spend money on everything. But what he never expected was that the Zhou family turned their faces faster than turning books, and Shen Xiuwen was swept out of the house before he became a guest.

"Well, that, I don't have enough money...... Shen Xiuwen scratched his head a little embarrassed, and looked at the waiter who was not a few years older than him with a sincere face.

"What? Sir, I don't quite understand what you mean? "The waiter has seen more customers on weekdays, but it's the first time I've seen one who says so frankly that he has no money.
