0030: On paper
Almost half an hour later, Wei Chigong propped up the boat and stopped steadily in front of a large Qinggu.
Then swing the pole and let everyone disembark.
After Mr. Zuo took everyone ashore, Wei Chigong said goodbye to Mr. Zuo.
Then the whistle sounded.
The pole clicked a few times, and the boat gradually drifted away in the fog.
Mr. Zuo suddenly looked at Wei Chigong's back and said loudly: "Second Master Wei is eighty years old, but you have to be careful......
Fate?
I don't believe in this thing at all.
However, Mr. Zuo will not tell Wei Chigong about this for no reason.
And deliberately delayed until after Wei Chigong left.
"Blind Zhang said I could live ninety-nine ......"
Wei Chigong's voice came from a distance, but it shook everyone's eardrums.
Mr. Zuo was stunned, sneered twice, and stopped speaking.
After going ashore, I rested for a few minutes.
Mr. Zuo knocked off the tobacco leaves in the tobacco pot, pinned the cigarette stick to his waist, and led us through the locust forest.
The next moment, an incomparably shocking scene appeared in front of him.
In front of the bamboo forest, there is an ancient town that is several times larger than Fusi Town.
The houses are like a large area of fertile land and mulberry bamboo.
Qianmo traffic, chickens and dogs smell each other.
It's like a paradise.
It should be the ancient town of Jianghu mentioned by Zhou Mei and Mr. Zuo - Guhuai Town.
Where we are, the terrain is relatively high, and we can see the whole picture of the entire Guhuai Town, like a huge yin and yang fish pattern.
There is a street paved with blue bricks in the middle of Guhuai Town, which is lined with old-fashioned stilted buildings, many shops, and full of people.
Full of fireworks in the world.
The shouting that I had faintly heard before came from the street.
The street divides the town of Guhuai into two large areas.
Each area has several sub-districts, each with a different architectural style.
There are very quaint wooden attics, and there are also Republican periods, typical blue brick walls and pointed window eyebrows.
There are also several small western-style buildings with modern blue tiles and white noodles, which are located in the "fisheye" location of yin and yang fish.
In the entire Guhuai Town, it seems extremely abrupt and out of place.
Mr. Zuo motioned for everyone to take a break, and after ten minutes, they went down the mountain and entered Guhuai Town.
Everyone found a flat place, ate something, and was about to set off, when a few villager-looking men walked over.
These people, seemingly ordinary villagers, have very sharp eyes.
The body also exudes an aura that is different from ordinary people.
Behind them, there were five or six strangely dressed young men, wearing fist-sized earrings and large flower scarves wrapped around their heads.
Every gesture carried a frightening evil aura.
When the villager-looking men walked here, the eyes of several young people also looked over intentionally or unintentionally.
In an instant, everyone felt as if they were being crushed by a boulder, and their legs seemed to be filled with lead, and every step was extremely difficult.
"Second Miss, you stand behind me."
Li Fuqiang stopped and protected Zhou Yanxiao.
Gu Mingshu glanced at Ding Xiaoyan, put his hand on the short stick on his waist, and a layer of white sweat appeared on his forehead.
Ding Xiaoyan and Han Linfeng's fingers had already caught a few blades.
His eyes were firmly fixed on the middle-aged man who was getting closer and closer.
I also subconsciously touched the tiger stripe knife.
I was a little apprehensive, but I wasn't too flustered.
Because, Mr. Zuo is still smoking dry tobacco in the light cloud.
I didn't feel the slightest nervousness because of these people who suddenly appeared.
The middle-aged man who walked in front looked at us for a while, and said in a deep voice: "A few eyes, I don't know if you are passing by here, or if you have an acquaintance in the town?" ”
Mr. Zuo smiled: "How about passing by, what about acquaintances in the town?" ”
The middle-aged man frowned and said, "There are rules here, and outsiders are not allowed to enter at will." If you are just passing by, you can take a detour to the left side of the trail. ”
"If there is an acquaintance in the town, you must report the name and detailed address of the other party, and we will escort you there."
Mr. Zuo nodded slightly, took out a wooden sign of the kind he had given to the boatman earlier, and handed it over.
"It's ...... Guhuai Order! The black-faced middle-aged man who took the wooden card changed his face suddenly, and immediately bowed his hand respectfully: "Mr. turned out to be from the Eight Sects Alliance?" I don't know if Mr. is taking guests on a tour, or is he going to enlightenment? Do you have a place to live? ”
Mr. Zuo replied: "Heavenly Master Zuo Yi, bring a few little friends to the town to experience and practice, and it is convenient for a few people to work." ”
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say......"
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Since Mr. is from the Heavenly Master Sect, there must be no need to recommend an inn to stay in." The house of the Heavenly Master Gate is in the Qianwei Shui area, and when Mr. goes there, someone will receive him. ”
With that, the middle-aged man made a gesture.
The coercion on these people disappeared in an instant.
"It's hard work!"
Mr. Zuo politely hugged his fists at the middle-aged man and motioned for everyone to follow him down the mountain.
I saw the middle-aged man who was talking to Mr. Zuo, following from a distance, with a look of loneliness on his face.
This guy doesn't seem to fully believe Mr. Zuo's words.
Mr. Zuo didn't care, and along the way, like a stuffy gourd, he led everyone into a courtyard.
There is a row of wooden houses in front of the main entrance of the precincts.
There is a bamboo building on stilts on the left side, in which pots and pans, firewood, rice, oil and salt are all available.
Mr. Zuo said that this is where we will live in the future.
Everyone must make this their own home, and share the joys and sorrows of each other.
I asked him how long he was going to stay in this place?
He replied that the timing could not be estimated.
If it is fast, it will take half a year, and if it is slow, it will take three years and five years.
The length of time depends entirely on how quickly we complete the training mission.
I was stunned.
Zhou Mei is still trapped in the Zhou family, let alone three or five years, even half a year, I think it's too long.
There is also Zhou Jixian and Chen Laoqi who played a game, which caused my family to be ruined.
I can't wait that long for this hatred.
Mr. Zuo noticed that my expression was wrong, and seemed to see my thoughts, so he lowered his face and said: "The rivers and lakes are not a family, but they will face the test of life and death at any time." ”
"What you have learned before is just talk on paper, and in the real world of rivers and lakes, it is likely that you will not survive for a day."
"The experience is to teach you how to survive in the dangerous rivers and lakes. The old man once told you that life is the king, and after death, a pile of white bones will rot in the soil and turn into mud...... Got it? ”
I smiled wryly and nodded helplessly.
Mr. Zuo is right.
Jianghu is not a playhouse.
Everywhere is full of danger and murderous intent
I have been studying art with Mr. Zuo for nearly ten years, but it is just a showcase on paper. Only through the practice of bloody wind and rain can we truly gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes.
Thinking about this, my heart suddenly became transparent.
I don't have to worry about how long I'm going to stay here.
After following Mr. Zuo into the compound, a middle-aged woman with a good face walked out of the bamboo building with a twisted waist.
