Chapter Forty-Six: The Secret Place
Zeng Jiuchun said angrily: "You are an idler, the eight of us belong to you and wander around." Little junior brother, it's a little crowded here, let's go, go up the mountain and chat. ”
Yun Qian suddenly remembered the purpose of coming: "Senior brothers, I heard rumors that I was related to Senior Miao, so I was able to worship Zizhao Mountain, and the misunderstanding grew. I was worried that Senior Miao would be angry because of this and drive me out of Zizhao Mountain. I'm here to clear up the misunderstanding, and I'm asking a few senior brothers to stop talking about it. ”
Zeng Jiuchun saw Yun Qian's solemnity, and asked carefully: "Are you sure?" ”
"It's really not," Yun Qian replied flatly.
"Think about it again", Jia Jiuhe's tone was full of persuasion.
Yun Qian sighed: "Senior brother, although I have some relationship with my predecessors, it is very shallow. Don't put it in the play. ”
"No", Jia Jiuhe's eyes rolled, and he retorted: "The master is not that kind of person, he will definitely not change his temperament without a special relationship, is it the second child." ”
Zhuo Jiuxiao replied: "It's called Second Senior Brother, it's not big or small." But what you said is also right, the master has a good face to the bone, this time the little junior brother refused to get started, but the master was surprisingly calm, there must be a reason. ”
Zeng Jiuchun came over directly: "Among the few of us, you know the master best, do you know what?" ”
Zhuo Jiuxiao looked behind him and said in a low voice: "I heard that the master once fought with the people of Gou Yao Palace for the sake of the little junior brother. ”
"Who did you listen to?" Jia Jiuhe, the two senior brothers surnamed Zhu squatted in front of them, and their expressions were focused on the four words.
Zhuo Jiuxiao replied: "Senior Sister Zhiman, it is said that even the mountain has opened, and Ji Xiangtang has run a long way to deal with the aftermath. ”
Zeng Jiuchun said dissatisfiedly: "Why are you still pestering others, and you are not afraid that Wanjia will come to repair you?" ”
"Hey, that's not the point." Zhuo Jiuxiao said meaningfully: "Fighting with Gou Yao Palace, when you come back, you will accept the junior brother to get started, and after being rejected, you disappeared for a few days, plus what the master said before the retreat, all kinds of signs, what did you not think of?" ”
Jia Jiuhe continued: "Didn't the master say that the mood is breaking through and preparing to impact the realm, what does it have to do with the little junior brother?" ”
Zhuo Jiu hated that iron could not become steel: "It is true that the state of mind has broken through, but how many years has the master practiced, why did the little junior brother break through when he first came." Because of what, because the little junior brother fulfilled the shortcomings in the master's heart. Let me mention you again, what is the regret of the master? ”
"Taoist couple", several people replied in unison.
"Tsk, it's true that the master lacks a Taoist companion, that's thinking about the one in Qiongxia Peak. This time it's definitely because of guilt. When I was the crown prince, I saw a lot, and several of my father's illegitimate children didn't give me a proper name. Zhuo Jiuxiao relied on his own experience and quickly came up with a reason.
Jia Jiuhe had an idea: "I understand, the little junior brother is from Dongzhou, and it just so happens that Gou Yao Palace is over there." Because of his good face, the master once entrusted the little junior brother to Gou Yao Palace, but the bastards in Gou Yao Palace bullied the little junior brother. That's why the little junior brother escaped, and waded all the way to here. The master fought with Gou Yao Palace, just to vent his anger to the little junior brother, and then his mood broke through. ”
Zhuo Jiu replied with great success: "Hey, yes." Among us, the seventh junior brother is the most clever. ”
Yun Qian watched the five senior brothers squatting in a circle, openly guessing the cause and effect, and when he heard it, even he himself doubted his life experience.
"Huh?" Yun Qian asked with a stunned expression, "Senior Miao has retreated?" ”
Zeng Jiuchun nodded: "Soon after you went to Yuchi Peak, you went into retreat. It is possible to have as little as one year, as much as thirty or fifty years. But you don't have to worry too much, the master has accumulated a lot of money, and it should go well. The master is not good at accepting you, but since he is not angry, he will definitely not expel you from Zizhao Mountain again because of the public relationship, at most he will hammer you after you get out of the customs and it will be over. ”
"That's not going to work", Yun Qian said angrily: "Senior brothers, don't guess, I was introduced by a senior, and I have nothing to do with Gou Yao Palace." I just want to practice in Zizhao Mountain with peace of mind, and I have nothing else to think about. ”
"Hey, people are warm and cold", Zhuo Jiuxiao sighed.
Jia Jiuhe nodded and said, "Since you are still angry with your master, we can't force it." If you don't admit it, you won't admit it, we just admire your strength, and build a road for the master to see. ”
Zeng Jiuchun and the two senior brothers surnamed Zhu also nodded.
"Okay, a few senior brothers are busy", Yun Qian finally understood that these senior brothers were afraid that they were suffocated, and they urgently needed something new to refresh themselves. Since Miao Dazhui is in retreat, it should be considered safe recently. After that, I showed up less, and after a while, the rumors subsided and no one cared... Let's look forward to his coming out of the customs in the future.
"Hey, hey, where is the little junior brother?" Zhuo Jiuxiao asked.
Yun Qian was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would have some mystery of his life experience, so he shouted as he ran: "Senior Brother Zhuo, senior brothers, I have touched the door in the past few days, and I am in a hurry to go back to cultivate, and I will come back when I have the opportunity." ”
Jia Jiuhe looked back at a bunch of people: "You don't have anyone to send Lao Ba a trip." ”
Zhuo Jiuxiao waved his hand: "The little junior brother is self-reliant and self-reliant, our junior brother is not good to help much, and it is easy to be self-defeating." ”
"I think you're lazy." Zeng Jiuchun replied.
Zhuo Jiuxiao retorted: "Tut-tut, then why don't you go?" ”
Zeng Jiuchun pouted and said: "Do you have a conscience, you pile up all your homework for us, and you have nothing to do and run blindly to the peaks." Said to introduce us to the junior sister, what about the people? ”
Zhuo Jiuxiao complained: "What's the hurry, didn't I introduce you to you in order to build a good relationship first." If you guys fight for some anger, I'll run around every day. I have to blame the master, how good it would be for the closed disciple to accept a little junior sister. ”
Jia Jiuhe said disgustedly: "Roll on, just the nine mountains that the master rows, the genealogy of the characters of heaven and earth, which junior sister adds like an old man." Don't hurt them. ”
Zhuo Jiuxiao shook his head and sighed after hearing this: "Alas, it's no fun to want to have a junior sister." ”
……
Two hours later
It was night, and the crescent moon was half-hanging. Yun Qian went to review on a mountain road, confused and difficult to decide: over, lost again. The night was getting darker, the vision was dim, and Yun Qian lost his way after a few forks in the road from memory. Although it is the road up the mountain, it is by no means where the Yuchi Peak is. If you go back for less than half an hour, you may not be able to return to the right path.
Yun Qian thought about it, and there would be deacons and disciples guarding the entrance of the peaks into the mountain. At that time, explain the reason, or ask for a shortcut, or rest for a night, presumably will not be embarrassed by him, go up first.
Climbing again is obviously much more tiring. After stopping for a stick of incense, I faintly found light in the distance, and I couldn't help but feel refreshed. However, after turning a stone platform, there were no deacon's disciples, only a lonely stone lamp.
The stone lamp is boxy, about a person high, and the base is thicker than what I have seen on a daily basis, but the lamp tower (sound bed) is not an ordinary torch or candle, nor is it a shining stone, but a cluster of many light points. The light points are treated with light and dark, odd and even hooks, and follow the traces, and will never get out of the lamp.
Before he had time to be disappointed, at the moment when he stared at the lantern group, Yun Qian's mind was swollen and painful, as if a stone had smashed a jade slip that day, and then he understood a lot of things.
Yun Qian held on to the stone wall with both hands, trying to keep himself awake, and barely survived. Until the headache is relieved, he strokes his forehead and recalls what appears in his mind: 'Formation diagram, return to fire......
Yun Qian slammed closer to the light, carefully observing the trajectory of the midpoint of the light, followed by the connecting line, and then at another point. It wasn't until after reading more than a dozen places that Yun Qian affirmed: "Sure enough, I can understand it again." The bits, images, numbers, and theories are not bad at all, and even the guan, know-how, source, and effect are also clear. I've never seen the Returning Fire Array before, so I'm already familiar with it? ”
Yun Qian faintly felt something, and hurriedly took off the three-leaf pendant left by his parents and looked at it repeatedly. Although it was much simpler this time, it was something that only appeared after seeing some elephant patterns with Yu Jian. But Uncle Chang Shi didn't react when he took the pendant before, can he only use it?
Pacing back and forth, after all, he didn't know why, looked up at the glowing lights, and pinched the pendant and leaned over a little bit. The closer I got, the more nervous I became, both expecting and fearing that something unforeseeable would happen. Until it is pasted to the light, there is no change. was ruthless, and directly plunged Xiang Shen into the light.
The lights instantly zoomed in, making Yun Qian shrink in fright, and nothing happened after a while.
Yun Qian, who had plucked up his courage, tried twice, and the light point hook of the lamp group was pushed away by Xiang Shen, as if he had been plunged into the water, and he still flowed according to the previous rhythm.
I don't know if it's because the light cluster is like this, or if the pendant is special, Yun Qian stretched out his index finger and poked into the light cluster, only to find that it looked like a lamp, but in fact, there was no temperature, and the light spot would also be pushed away.
"It turned out that it was just the light like this", stretched out two fingers and pinched a point of light, trying to pull a grain out, but like pinching water, it could only be pushed away and couldn't catch it at all, so he stretched out his palm to fish them out.
The lights were chaotic, and they flew like a swarm of bees. A force shook the palm of his hand, and Yun Qian ran away. hid until the stone wall at the corner before secretly looking back at the movement of the stone lamp.
In just a moment, the lights were quiet, and they flowed as bright as before, as if nothing had happened.
Yun Qian rubbed his palms while being vigilant about the movements around him. After half a cup of tea, I was relieved. Thinking back to what happened before, Xiang Shen seems to have a reaction to himself after seeing the unknown elephant pattern, and if he is enlightened, there will be no more. Moreover, the stone lamp had no malicious intent, and it disturbed the track of the light point before it was shaken out.
When the night is dark, there is no one around, Yun Qian first came to Zizhao Mountain, I don't know the meaning of this stone lamp, I don't dare to try again, I'm afraid of breaking any rules, or ask again another day, by the way to solve the mystery of the pendant.
'Why is there no one in the middle of the night...... Find the deacon disciple first and ask for the way back. Yun Qian deliberately moved some distance away from the stone lamp and continued to walk towards the mountain. I walked for a while with my thoughts, and I was stunned to find that the same stone lamp appeared in front of me again, the same stone platform, and when I turned around and looked again, it was the mountain road he came here on.
The stone light point is also a fire formation diagram, and there is no difference at all. I couldn't help but realize something, and after looking left and right at no one, I secretly kicked a stone to the bottom of the steps, secretly noted the location in my heart, and walked towards the mountain again.
In the same way, I came back here again, looking at the stone that I had kicked by myself, and my heart gradually sank: over, I was hit by a ghost on the wall.
