"You know what happened next. I was lucky not to die, and I was lucky enough to get out of the cage. But when I came out, I was in complete despair. ”

At this time, the rooster of the Quanli Zhuang people began to crow. The mountains in the east reveal the whiteness of the fish's belly.

Daddy stood up and said, "I should go, you can sleep for an hour or two, just sleep in my hut for a while, or you won't be able to sit still when you go to school." ”

"It's time for me to go", the simple four words, came out of my father's mouth plainly, but to me it sounded like an oath of life and death.

I couldn't help but feel sour, and the tears couldn't stop flowing.

Daddy looked at me and said with a smile, "Manly man, bleed without tears." Wipe away your tears and don't let passers-by see the joke. ”

I wiped away my tears with my cuffs, and in order not to let my father hear the crying, I coughed twice and adjusted my tone and said, "I'll send it to you." ”

The old man said, "It's okay, just stand here and send me off." ”

I was speechless for a moment.

The old father smiled and said: "As the saying goes, if you send you a thousand miles, you must say goodbye in the end." What's more, my generation has never wanted to live too realistically, and I have always tried to minimize people's attention to me, and I don't want to make a big splash when I go out this time. I have already made an appointment with you, Mr. Chong, to meet this morning at the intersection of the road leading to the south of the city. I will go down the mountain for a while, and I will not enter the village, but I will go down directly from the main road of the Quanli people down the mountain to meet you Chong Shibo. Your Uncle Shiwa's family, I also told them yesterday that they should not come to see me off today. Go to sleep. ”

"Buddha generation, it seems that my old wife has no weight in your heart. I'm leaving, and I won't tell you. "Behind me came the voice of the fairy grandmother.

The old father hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Aunt Zhen, don't think about it, I don't want to bother you." I can't do my filial piety in front of you, you always have to take care of your body. I explained to Shiwa, and in the future, let him go to the back mountain to see you more often, and do his filial piety for me. ”

The fairy grandmother said with tears in her eyes: "Buddha generation, my son, it is you who should take care of your body, you see how weak your body has become in the past two years." My wife has suffered you all your life, and I have always felt indebted to you in my heart, but I really don't know how to make up for you. When you leave like this today, I don't know when we will be able to meet. If you still have any unfulfilled wishes in this village, you can tell my wife, and if I have the ability, I will try my best to achieve your wishes. Shiwa's family, you don't have to tell me, I will take care of them. ”

Daddy thought for a while and said, "I was originally a passer-by in this village, and I have been trying to make myself a passer-by all along. Ben has no unfulfilled wishes. Shiwa's family, I also know that you will take care of them. There is just one thing, Xiao Yuan, this baby, has entered my Shouyang Mountain Xuanmen, and may carry heavy burdens in the future, I hope you can teach him some Taoist exercises in the future, so that he can be more calm when dealing with various difficulties and obstacles in the future. ”

The fairy grandmother looked at me and said, "I guessed that too." Xiao Yuan, this baby, you really chose the right one. I could see that he was going to be a great man. Don't worry, even if you don't say it, I'll work on him. Although my Ximu team belongs to different sects from Shouyang Mountain, and Shouyang Mountain seems to have not been involved in earthly affairs for thousands of years, you also know that Ximu and Shouyang Mountain are both important forces in maintaining their status in the world. What's more, the Wa royal family's heavy weapons are also on Shouyang Mountain. The matter of Shouyang Mountain is a major event in the world, and it is also a matter that our mother should contribute. ”

The old father took a step back, knelt on the ground and saluted the fairy grandmother, and said, "Thank you, Aunt Zhen." - No, I should thank the first lord for his kindness to my Shouyang Mountain. ”

The fairy grandmother helped her father up, turned her head and said to me, "Xiao Yuan, come and kowtow to your master." ”

I was already confused by the conversation between the two before, and when the fairy grandmother said this, I was even more confused by the second monk, standing in place woodenly, scratching my scalp and saying two words: "Master?"

The old man said, "These false courtesies, it's okay. ”

The fairy grandmother said: "This is not a false courtesy, if you don't kowtow to this one, your name is not right." In the future, Xiao Yuan will also be at a loss. ”

The fairy grandmother said to me again: "Xiao Yuan, now we say that you are a disciple of the Xuanmen of Shouyang Mountain, do you know why?"

I thought about it and said, "Because I worshipped the sixth master as a teacher, the sixth master is a disciple of Shouyang Mountain, and I am naturally a disciple of Shouyang Mountain." ”

The fairy grandmother said: "Da Yuan also worships Cunli as a teacher, why don't you say that he is a disciple of the Xuanmen of Shouyang Mountain?"

I remembered the words of my father at that time, and said: "My brother learned the theory from home, he can't be called the sixth master, and he is not a disciple of Shouyang Mountain." ”

The fairy grandmother said: "Since you can learn from home, you are also the nephew of Cunli, why don't you talk about it." ”

I'm speechless.

Fairy Grandma walked up to me, put a hand on my shoulder and said, "The real disciple of the Xuanmen of Shouyang Mountain is him." ”

The fairy grandmother said and pointed to the old father.

I asked curiously, "Could it be that the sixth master is fake?"

Grandma Immortal said: "Cunli is also a real disciple of Shouyang Mountain, but he is not a person from Xuanmen, so he cannot be regarded as a disciple of Xuanmen of Shouyang Mountain. ”

I still didn't understand, but I vaguely remembered the story that my father had told before, as if Guzhu Gong had said that the sixth master had no Xuanyuan and could not practice Xuanfa, so he could only practice the boxing method founded by Guzhu Gong.

I asked, "Is it because the sixth master has no Xuanyuan and is not a member of the Xuanmen?"

Fairy Grandma nodded.

I asked again, "So I'm not a member of the Xuanmen anymore?"

The fairy grandmother shook her head again.

I was puzzled and asked, "Why is that?"

The fairy grandmother pointed to the old father and said, "Because your real master is him." ”

The fairy grandmother continued: "He was originally the heir of the master of Shouyang Mountain selected by the Duke of Guzhu that year. But I don't know what the reason, I only practiced in the mountains for two years, and I was driven down the mountain by Guzhugong, saying that the opportunity in the mountains was full. I haven't been up a mountain since. He himself knew that he had a mediocre life, and he had no achievements in either martial arts or occult arts, and he would definitely not be able to become a qualified Shouyang Mountain Lord, but he felt that he had the responsibility to choose an excellent mountain lord heir who could succeed him for Shouyang Mountain. You are the chosen one. ”

Daddy said, "It's a pity, baby, you showed up too late." This time I went up the mountain, if the master really had a case, I didn't know what to do. If I had found you ten years earlier, you would have been able to go up the mountain with me this time. ”

The fairy grandmother said: "He asked you for a title in the Guzhu Princess, in order to hide people's eyes, especially to prevent Cunli from suspicion, so that you worshiped Cunli as a teacher." But in fact, he has been trying to cultivate you since he recognized you, and the story he told you is not a simple story, it is equivalent to passing on to you all the enlightenment he has learned. If I'm not mistaken, he should have something else to hand over to you. ”

The fairy grandmother said and looked at Daddy, who turned around and walked to the entrance of the shack, leaned over and took out a big envelope from under the pillow in the shack, and handed it to me.

I saw a few words written on it: "Gao Xiaoyuan personally enlightened"

I was about to tear open the envelope when my father said, "Don't open it yet." I was going to put it under the pillow for you to find out for yourself, but since Aunt Zhen said it, I will hand him over to you myself. After you wait for me to leave, you find a place where no one is and quietly open it and look again. Remember, this thing can't be seen by anyone, including your parents and your grandfather. ”

I nodded.

The fairy grandmother glanced at me, and I immediately understood, knelt down in front of my father, kowtowed, and said, "Farewell Master." ”

Daddy helped me up, turned around on the stone bench and picked up the luggage that had been prepared last night, and walked along the ridge without looking back.

In the mountains to the east, a red sun has just poked out half of its head. My eyes were blurry in the sunlight, and I tried to see the figure in the distance, but all I could see was two clear masses of liquid swaying from side to side, and colorful spots of light passing through them.
