Chapter 3: Covert Protection
The sun is getting thicker, and the verdant bamboo leaves shine with watery colors. In a hairy grass pavilion, there is an old man, his beard is gray and white, and he looks less than half white. He stood in the pavilion, sometimes bowing his head in contemplation, sometimes looking up to the sky and looking at the green, and his mood seemed to be very entangled.
As a breeze blew, slowly approaching his side, only listening to him whispering. After waiting for the wind to pass, he calmed down and listened, as if to say, "Can you not, can you or not, alas, old man, I have been in seclusion for decades, how can I ever encounter such troubles." ”
"However, the day before yesterday, the Yan Jiu brothers returned to the west with their lives, and entrusting the old man with such a major matter may be related to the critical matter of the rivers and lakes. I, I have vowed never to re-emerge from the rivers and lakes, to return to the mountains and forests, if I re-emerge from the rivers and lakes, then let the ancestors and teachers die, my vein will also be cut off! ”
"Alas, but, seeing that the rivers and lakes are not in the daytime, there will be a sudden turmoil, the wicked will be in charge, and the martial arts will fall into a difficult situation, not to mention which sect and which faction will be hit hard by this, and since then it will be silenced on the rivers and lakes, I don't know how many living beings have died unexpectedly, how many wives have been separated, and how many lonely souls and wild ghosts have increased!"
"Now, although Yuxu and Yuqing have been cultivating for more than ten years, they can break out of the world on the rivers and lakes with their skills. But how have the two of them experienced the rivers and lakes, how can they understand the various doorways of this big rivers and lakes, how can they know that this seemingly calm individual, team, and rivers and lakes in the world are full of danger and murderous intentions. ”
"Not to mention, what is the origin of this sudden appearance of the Tiger Killing Gang, if they know that Yuxu and the others have important information in their hands that can bring them disasters, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not chase and kill them everywhere."
The old man looked at the clean blue sky and thought about it, and saw that it was indeed blood-red and blood-red and the remnant sun was crying blood, and he had another help in his heart, so he flashed out of the pavilion and walked towards the courtyard not far away.
After a while, it was time for dinner, and I saw the old man wearing a neat and neat cyan robe, carrying a gray cloth wrap, holding sorghum in his hand, striding forward, until he walked to the gate of the courtyard, and stopped at the end of the bamboo forest. The old man recycled the bamboo forest, looked at the thatched courtyard in the distance, recalled it with great memory, turned his head suddenly, and closed the door.
Seeing the green leaves moving and making a wonderful sound, I saw an old man's light body stepping on the soft leaves and hurrying quickly. From time to time, he came to a small town, and the old man slowly landed beside the willow tree not far from the town.
Then, he looked at his clothes lightly, and seemed to feel that something was not right, and he dressed up a little, and suddenly became a middle-aged Taoist, walked to the river, and watched carefully, the old man was very satisfied, and strode towards the town.
At this time, it was four o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun was gradually moving westward. There were not as many pedestrians in the town as there were in the morning, and the scattered shouting of hawkers sounded intermittently. A thin and thin big yellow dog barked and ran from the street, causing many pedestrians to raise their feet to kick, but before they stretched out their feet, they saw a large group of neat and tidy Tsing Yi knights following behind the dog.
A young man's raised foot was kicked out of the street by one of the knights in green clothes. The thin yellow dog barked and walked to the middle-aged Taoist dressed as the old man, suddenly stopped, and barked loudly. In front of the team of knights in green clothes, a fat man with a steady appearance strode over, glanced at the old man lightly, rolled up his mouth as if he was smiling, and beckoned the dog to continue walking.
The old man didn't care, and still walked slowly and gracefully, until the team of knights in Tsing Yi walked over. Quickly walked to a secluded path and followed from a distance.
The old man followed to the restaurant, and happened to see his two apprentices, and wanted to go up to greet him, but then he thought about it. When he entered the rivers and lakes this time, he must not leak his whereabouts.
The old man thought that if he reappeared in the rivers and lakes and was known by the brothers and sisters, the consequences would be really unimaginable, I am afraid that it would not be enough to kill the tiger gang and cause chaos in the rivers and lakes, and his appearance would make the stable waters of the rivers and lakes more and more muddy. After thinking about it, he could only wait and see what happened, secretly help the two of them, and carefully send the entrusted things to the Western Regions.
Looking at Yuxu Yuqing patiently, Yuqing had already started to move, and the old man was secretly anxious. When I went out, I deliberately explained that I must not be brave and ruthless, easily leak martial arts, and cause trouble, which will be a big fight as soon as I come out, alas.
Although the old man sighed, seeing that Yuqing's three fists and two feet did not leak much family cultivation to solve the battle, there was still some joy in his eager heart. "It's my apprentice!" The old man was sighing, and Yuxu Yuqing didn't know where he was going.
