Chapter 42: The Jungle Is Deep
"The two masters, I haven't seen you for two years, have always been good." When Labu Tsering and his two apprentices came to the Central Plains two years ago, they saw Yangtian Palace and Yangdi Palace, and when they saw the two of them coming, Labu Tsering blurted out.
"In the past two years, my Sun God Sect has been under the leadership of the Shadowless Master, no"
"This high monk is a master of Paju Gob, and he has been famous for a long time." Yangtian Palace bowed his hand to Pa Ju Gobu and said with a smile.
"The poor monk is none other than the Paju Gobu, the three Dharma protectors, let's go see the Shadowless Master!" Paju Gobu Shen said.
Yangtian Palace introduced Yangdi Palace and Yang Miaoke to Paju Gobu one by one, and took Paju Gobu and others to Shouyang Mountain.
Hearing that Paju Gobu and Yangtian Palace and the others were leaving, the wise master and the others walked out of the back room.
"Master Wisdom, that monk named Paju Gob, it seems that his martial arts are higher than Rabu Tsering, how to deal with it next." Zhu Yu asked worriedly.
The wise master pondered for a long time before he said: "This matter, we have to think about it in the long run, at the moment, we can only go to Shouyang Mountain first, explore the reality, and then make plans." ”
After the wise master finished speaking, he took the lead in leaving.
Old Man Yan, Zhu Yu, Ling Yazi, Lan Ling'er, Duan Shiqi and Zhang Shijun, led by Old Man Liu, went up the mountain along the path up the mountain.
When they were about to arrive at the mountain gate, several people said that they would meet the place, and Old Man Yan, Zhu Yu, and Lingyazi carried their qi into the forest from one side and went up through the forest.
Lan Ling'er, Duan Shiqi and Zhang Shijun followed Lao Liu Tou to pass by the heavily guarded mountain gate, Lao Liu Tou went down the mountain to go home, and after several people met dozens of feet away from the mountain gate, they went up the mountain according to the reservation plan.
Coming to a fork in the road, Zhu Yu, Lan Ling'er and Lingyazi separated from Old Man Yan, Duan Shiqi and Zhang Shijun, and Lao Liu Tou went down the mountain to go home.
Walking through a dense forest, Zhu Yu, Lan Ling'er and Lingyazi came to the edge of a cliff, the cliff is bottomless, a stone arch bridge is like a rainbow linking the cliffs at both ends, and there are four four four or five feet in size at the four corners of the bridge, the stone carvings have been covered with moss.
Lingyazi drew his sword and scraped the moss on a stone carving, and found a sunbird carved in the center of the round stone carving, the bird's head was raised, its mouth was wide open, and it looked extremely vicious, around the bird, some simple green grass and flowers were carved, and the edge of the stone carving was engraved with a circle of zigzag patterns, perhaps alluding to the light of the sun.
"I remembered, the place where the helmsman of the flower girl and Zhang Shun were in the palm of the body, faintly showed this figure, I didn't expect that the five poisonous palms were so powerful that they could hit this figure through palm power." Lan Ling'er said in surprise.
"The kung fu of this Sun God Sect is really incredible, and there is that this picture should be the badge of the Sun God Sect."
After Zhu Yu finished speaking, he took Lan Ling'er and Lingyazi to the bridge.
The bridge deck is flat, but it is also covered with lichen, indicating that few people walk.
The three of them carefully crossed the bridge and followed a bluestone path to the back of the cliff.
In front of him, there is a high and low peak, there are deep camps between the peaks, there are some buildings in the shadows of the peaks, and on the side, there is a house, and there is a faint smoke from the house.
Suddenly, two young men dressed in white came from the side of the road and looked at them strangely.
"Which master's subordinate are you? How come we have never seen you? One of the taller young men asked.
"We've only been up the mountain for a short time, so you haven't seen us, big brother, who is your master?" Lingyazi often goes out with his senior brothers and sisters, has seen the world, and can deal with two young disciples of the Sun God Sect.
"Our side belongs to the territory of the master of the Yang Di Palace, and the master of the Yang Di Palace is our master." Another stocky young man said.
"Oh, two senior brothers, Shouyang Mountain is really big, but I don't know how many people there are on the mountain." Lingyazi began to talk to the two disciples of the Sun God Sect.
"Shouyang Mountain is of course big, there are a total of seven mountains and thirteen caves, it is said that there are more than 300 people living on the mountain! The Sect Master, Master Shadowless, lives in the highest immortal mountain over there, and there is a cave there called the Immortal Cave. The tall man scrambled to say.
"The three Dharma Protectors, Master Yang Tian Palace, Yang Di Gong Master and Yang Miao Coco Master each manage two mountains and four caves, and the number of disciples directly managed by the sect leader and the disciples directly managed by the three Dharma Protectors is about the same." Short young man added.
"The two senior sisters must be the disciples of Master Yang Miaoke, because her subordinates are all women." The tall young man said.
"Yes, Master Yang Miaoke is our master, you have all seen her." The situation gradually became clear, and Lan Ling'er also began her flickering.
"Our disciples in the Seven Mountains and Thirteen Caves generally don't come and go, and it's even more difficult to see a few Dharma protectors, even if it's our master, we can't see him a few times a year." The short man sighed.
"If you can't see Master, how can you cultivate martial arts?" Lan Ling'er asked.
"Naturally, there are masters at a lower level who teach us kung fu, and then there is a big exam every year, and those who pass the test are promoted to the next level, there are five levels in total, and the highest level can become a disciple of the Dharma Protector." The tall man said.
"Then what level of disciples are you?" Zhu Yu asked.
"The two of us were arrested on the mountain before we were seven years old, and we have been on the mountain for ten years, and we are still fifth-level disciples." The short man said.
"Tonglong, Tonghu, who are you talking to? It's not good to go to the mountain, after a long time, you have to be on guard, and be careful that the people of the Tianlong Sect come up the mountain. A reproach was heard in his voice.
"Go ahead, let's go around." Zhu Yu said to the two.
"My name is Tonglong, his name is Tonghu, Master has called us, we have to go to patrol the mountains." After the tall man finished speaking, he glanced at the short man, and the two of them walked in the direction of the stone arch bridge behind the cliff.
"Let's leave here and check on the opposite mountain, the key is to find the lair of the Shadowless Man, the Immortal Mountain and the Immortal Cave." Zhu Yu said.
The three of them looked around, and found that there was a path not far away that led diagonally to the canyon below, so they disappeared and walked towards the path.
When they walked into the woods, the three of them relaxed a little, looked in the direction of the highest mountain, lifted their spirits into the woods, and walked towards the highest peak.
The four of them flew for about a quarter of an hour before they flew over a canyon, and there was still a long way to go before they saw the big mountain, so they found a flat place by the small river and landed to rest.
"This mountain is really complicated, much more complicated than Tianlong Mountain, so I'm afraid that I won't be able to find the nest of the shadowless person for a day." Lan Ling'er sighed.
"Let's take a break." After Zhu Yu finished speaking, he came to the river, took a sip of water with both hands, and drank it with a grunt.
"This water is so sweet, Ling'er, Lingyazi, you all come and drink some water!"
"Wait a minute, I'll try it first, if you can drink this water." After Lingya finished speaking, he came to the river, took out a silver needle from his bosom, put it in the water and tried it, looked at it carefully in the sun, and said, "It's okay, this water can be drunk." ”
Lan Ling'er smiled and said, "Brother Zhu Yu, this water is poisonous, you are not poisoned yet." ”
"It's okay, I've drunk the blood of a rock ape, so I shouldn't be soaked in poison." Zhu Yu stuck out his tongue.
After the three of them drank the water, they each found a place to sit cross-legged and start their luck.
After about half an hour, the three of them were about to finish their work, when they suddenly heard a "flutter" sound not far away, and when they opened their eyes, they saw that one person was standing in front of them.
The person who came looked to be about sixty years old, not tall, dressed in gray clothes, kind eyebrows, and a righteous face, not like a person from the Sun God Sect.
Seeing the comer, the three of them couldn't help but be shocked and hurriedly stood up.
"Old Immortal, who are you? Where did it come from? What are you doing here? Lan Ling'er asked.
"Are you Zhu Yu, Lan Ling'er, Lingyazi?"
"Hey, old man, how do you know us?" Zhu Yu asked strangely.
"Before, I met the Wise Master, and he told me about it, so I came to you." The old man laughed.
"Wait, old man, don't tell me who you are, let me guess, you are, you are Master Zhang Lingzi of Zhongnan Mountain." Lingyazi asked.
The old man stroked his long beard and smiled slightly: "The old man is Zhang Lingzi of Zhongnan Mountain, who received an invitation from Yang Rourou of Tianlong Mountain and came here to destroy the Sun God Sect. ”
