At dusk, the sun quietly hid behind the broken mountain, and gradually disappeared, Wang Lin and Xie An took advantage of this last light, and finally walked out of the sea of grass before the stars twinkled in the sky, and in front of them, it was the foot of the broken mountain that was uphill all the way. Faintly visible in the distance, the only way to enter the forbidden area of the mountain on the east side is faintly visible, dotted with stars, and there is the only way to enter the forbidden area of the broken mountain on the east side.

"Finally out of the sea of grass, after two days of green grass, I was going crazy. Xie An found a natural stone and sat down, resting on his feet.

Wang Lin stood next to Xie An, looking at the broken mountain with no peak in sight in front of him, although his body should have been tired after walking for a day, but Wang Lin's heart was excited, and his body had a lot of strength out of thin air, and he was only willing to climb the mountain as soon as possible and return to his hometown.

Xie An looked at Wang Lin, comprehended, and said with a smile: "Look at you in a hurry, you entered the Broken Mountain Forbidden Area, walked through the Broken Mountain Cableway, and went down the mountain from the west side of the Broken Mountain Camp through the Broken Mountain Camp, you will arrive home, there are three more days at most, I calculated, you are away from home for more than half a month, do you need to be in such a hurry, if you want me, you must travel more outside." Then, Xie An looked at the flames at the entrance of the forbidden area in the distance and said: "The west side of the Broken Mountain in Xixia Prefecture is under martial law, and it stands to reason that the people in the villages over there should be specially protected and controlled. “

Wang Lin first hurriedly nodded to Xie An in thanks, and then hesitated in his eyes, thinking: What if something happens?, he couldn't help but feel his heart beating faster, anxious and frightened.

After a while, Wang Lin remembered a poem left in "Reasoning": "Lingwaiyin is broken, and the winter is repeated." The feeling of being close to the hometown is more keen, and I dare not ask anyone. At first, I didn't understand it, but now my state is to understand the sentence "I don't dare to ask anyone", understand a thorough, self-deprecating smile, I feel that I am really a nest, I have to go home, no matter what happens in my hometown, it is my hometown, I must go back, in this case, why torture myself in advance.

Wang Lin squatted on the ground, clasped his knees with his hands, looked at the broken mountain in front of him, and muttered to himself: "Since '' ’”

Xie An, who came to rest, said quietly: "Oh, I don't like this poem sir, this poem of the predecessors is already a sour poem, after you add this sentence, it is even more sour." ”

Wang Lin retracted his gaze, a little shy, just unconsciously whispered the words in his heart, he really felt embarrassed, ignored Xie An, picked up his luggage and stood up, and strode towards the broken mountain without looking back.

Xie An laughed and shouted in the back: "Brother Wang, your poem, this posture, I think you are not far from that sour reader." After that, he started from the stone and chased after Wang Lin. I was thinking in my heart: "You haven't drunk wine, and if you drink it, you will know that this wine is, and if you drink it strongly, you will end up hurting your spirit." ”

Thinking about it, his pace slowed down and said to himself: "Lingwaiyin is broken, and it is winter and spring." The feeling of being close to the hometown is more keen, and I dare not ask anyone. I don't know how many buckets of wine there are, and I am worried about it. Forced to drink and dispel sorrowful wine, and finally hurt the aftermath. Ouch, yes, yes, it's not bad to put it in my travelogue!" Then Xie An suddenly shivered, and scolded with a smile: "Damn, why have I become so sour!

Since ancient times, a road on the east side of the mountain has been broken to climb the heavens, and this road has blocked countless intruders and guarded ordinary people from generation to generation. Wang Lin and Wu Chi touched the darkness, and with the slightest hint of moonlight, they walked towards the distant point of light.

After walking for more than two hours, the two small fire points gradually became larger, Wang Lin and Xie An finally arrived at the entrance of the defense line of the forbidden area, and also saw clearly what these two fire points that could be seen from a distance were.

Because this entrance is facing Broken Water City, the guards are not strict, mainly to prevent the people of Xixia Prefecture from entering the Broken Mountain Forbidden Area, so there are only two heavily armed soldiers, and behind the soldiers is a huge fierce beast stone statue that has been carved to be extremely realistic, with two eyes blazing, even comparable to the dazzling sun. Xie An stepped forward slightly, squinted at the burning eyes of this stone statue, and said softly, "That's it!"

"Brother Xie, what kind of fierce beast is this?" Wang Lin also looked at this fierce beast, but he didn't look at the eyes of the fierce beast that were too dazzling.

Xie An replied: "This is the heaven and earth spirit beast of Nantianzhu Prefecture, the statue of the lion, it is rumored that when Marshal Cao traveled from Nantianzhu Prefecture to Xixia Prefecture three hundred years ago, he brought one, Marshal Master Huineng Buddha in the sky and the liwen borrowed a doppelganger, which has half of the power of the heaven and earth spirit beast of Nantianzhuzhou, which was given by the Buddha to Marshal Cao to help him sit in this Xixia Prefecture. Five years ago, during the invasion of Yilan, the clone was killed by Yilan's superior angel, leaving only a pair of eyes. Marshal Cao ordered the stonemason to carve this stone statue to support the eyes. “

Wang Lin nodded, trying to look into the eyes of the cockroach, but he still couldn't bear the dazzling golden light.

At this time, two soldiers stepped forward, one walked towards Wang Lin and the other walked towards Xie An, and said together: "Ahead is the Broken Mountain Forbidden Zone, who is coming?"

Wang Lin hurriedly took out the token that was covered with warm from his arms, and carefully handed it to the soldier in front of him, and the soldier whispered to Wang Lin after inspection: "Yesterday, General Lu Shen passed by and explained that someone would come with his token today, and he wanted to let it go unhindered, this son, once you encounter trouble in the future, you can directly show the token." When you arrive at the Broken Mountain Camp, hand over the token to the Road Counselor, who will then issue a passage pass that will allow you to pass through the Broken Mountain Camp to the west. ”

Wang Lin hurriedly nodded in thanks, and then looked at Xie An, Xie An also happened to look at Wang Lin, and both of them passed smoothly.

Approaching the stone statue of the terrifying beast, it was actually three or four people high, Wang Lin saw that the stone statue was densely engraved with names, and he asked Xie An: "Such a magnificent stone statue, these names are the names of craftsmen, right?"

Xie An sighed and said, "What's the matter, it's the fallen general during the Great War of Yilan New Kingdom." ”

"So many generals died in battle?" Wang Lin looked at Xie An with wide eyes.

Xie An said in a deep voice: "The reason why the Cao family's border army is supported by the people of Xixia Prefecture is not only because Marshal Cao is a little saint, but also because the border army fights, and the generals are always the ones who rush to the front, and the first to die is often these generals, followed by the soldiers behind them." ”

Xie An stretched out his right hand, looked for it, touched the handwriting of a man named Xie Shi on the stone statue, and then said: "War, how can there be immortals, it has always been a fool who takes the lead, pulling a large group of fools behind him to rush forward to find death. My family was also sent to the black-haired by the white-haired people because of the war, and most of the family's property was destroyed in one fell swoop."

Wang Lin looked at Xie An, hesitated, but still didn't say that

Xie An said in a low voice at this time: "You want to ask if this Xie Shi is my relative, right?"

Xie An's rare eyes were lonely, and he was silent for a while and said to Wang Lin: "Sort of, he is just a small person among the 500,000 people who died on the battlefield that year." As he spoke, he pointed to the three words on the top of the beast's head: Zhao Yehua, and said: "This is the big man, Marshal Cao's eldest disciple, deputy marshal of the border army, if he is still alive now, I want to enter the realm of ascending to heaven and become a little saint, no matter how he dies, it is actually not his turn to die, so I said that the generals of the Cao family's border army like to find death." ”

Wang Lin was silent, not knowing what to say or how to comfort Xie An.

Xie An wiped his face and said tiredly: "Let's go forward, this place is very close to the post station, and we can sleep peacefully when we get there." “

Wang Lin nodded, and the two walked forward again together, but there were no words along the way.

The two soldiers guarding the door behind him watched the two teenagers leave, and got together to chat: "One of these two people is the identity token of General Lu who has the power controlled by the marshal, and the other is the footman who Marshal Cao personally ordered to be released, hey, which of them do you say is powerful?"

The soldier next to him snorted and said, "Anyway, it's better than the two of us, it's about to change shifts, hurry up and stand up." ”

When he arrived at the post station, Wang Lin showed his token and smoothly asked the officials in charge of the post station to arrange two clean and comfortable rooms. Xie An and Wang Lin agreed to go up the mountain together tomorrow morning, so they went to sleep in their own room.

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

In the sky above the Broken Mountain Camp, above the dark clouds, Marshal Cao Yuanpeng and the Great Confucian Kong Mengru were in the sky.

The two of them looked at the giant snake that woke up and was tormented and bruised all over its body.

Cao Yuanpeng's second apprentice, Zhang Yeran, was there constantly casting spells on the giant snake.

"Do you really want to use a spell Gu? is there no other solution?" Kong Mengru looked at Cao Yuanpeng, his eyes showing a heavy look.

Cao Yuanpeng replied very calmly: "I don't have enough time, this is no way." “

"The resentment of the spirit beast of heaven and earth plus the cause and effect of the curse Gu, you don't feel good. Kong Mengru swept Cao Yuanpeng's body and said.

"It's okay, it's going to last ten years. And I don't need ten years. Cao Yuanpeng's voice was still steady.

"Alas, I know that Your Majesty is quite dissatisfied with you sitting in Xixia Prefecture, neither listening to the tune nor listening to the announcement, and Your Majesty's strength has gradually stabilized in recent years, and it is estimated that he will attack you within ten years, and I will go out of the mountain to help you by then. Kong Mengru looked in the direction of Zhongzhou and said.

Cao Yuanpeng chuckled: "The little emperor can't move me anymore." The people of Xixia Prefecture are in a period of fanaticism for believing in Buddhism, and within ten years, he will not dare to do it, and he will not have to do it again after ten years. ”

Kong Mengru nodded: "That's the best, I hope to let you do what you want"

Cao Yuanpeng paused for a while, finally sighed, and said to Kong Mengru: "Old master, the only thing I can't rest assured about is my stupid apprentice, if the war starts, some dusty things will inevitably be exposed by Yilan, making a big fuss, I 。。。。。。。 ”

Before Cao Yuanpeng could finish speaking, Kong Mengru took the first step and said, "It's your second apprentice and the Yilan woman." “

Cao Yuanpeng was not too surprised, nodded and said, "It turns out that the old master already knows." ”

Kong Mengru said indifferently: "It's not just me, the first emperor also knows. The first emperor is the longest-reigning emperor of Xingguo, a high and profound cultivation in the Heavenly Dao realm, if you want to know, after returning to Zhongzhou, the first emperor also told me by the way. “

Cao Yuanpeng recalled: "The first emperor is the first emperor through the ages, and I really can't learn that atmosphere and freedom." Then he bowed to Kong Mengru and said, "Since the old master already knows what happened, then Cao Yuanpeng is here。。。。。。。 “

Kong Mengru stopped Cao Yuanpeng's words and said: "It is impossible for Confucianism to protect a person who cultivates evil arts and falls in love with foreign enemies, which is unreasonable. Kong Mengru paused and said, "But, I will personally try my best to protect him." ”

Cao Yuanpeng thanked solemnly: "Cao Yuanpeng thanks the old master. ”

The old master nodded, and then glanced at Zhang Yeran, who was under the cliff of the broken mountain, with red eyes and tears, frantically casting a spell on the giant snake, and said softly: "Love is deep and longevity, wisdom will be hurt, love is deepest, know your mistakes and do not change." ”

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

At night, Wang Lin, who originally wore panda eyes, was very sleepy, but when he saw the fierce beast statue, he suddenly fell asleep, and in addition to feeling its terrifying momentum, Wang Lin had a very strange sense of déjà vu. But Wang Lin was very sure that he had never seen that fierce beast. Driven by curiosity, Wang Lin left the post station and walked all the way down towards the fierce beast stone statue.

The night was quiet, and the guards didn't know where they had gone, except for the stone statue of the beast, with a pair of eyes open and releasing dazzling light.

Wang Lin approached and carefully observed the appearance of the fierce beast, and confirmed that he had never seen such a terrifying fierce beast, not even a similar one.

Wang Lin felt very strange, and suddenly a very strange feeling came to his heart, prompting Wang Lin to involuntarily look into the eyes of the fierce beast, and in an instant, nothing in Wang Lin's eyes existed except for the dazzling brilliance.

When Wang Lin eased up and his eyes were slightly able to see, he found that he had appeared on a lotus pond, the lotus leaves, like a jasper green umbrella stretched out, some floating lightly on the surface of the pool, and some pavilions standing in the air, like layers of green waves, like pieces of jade.

Wang Lin looked ahead, there was an old monk not far away, sitting on the lotus, his face was gentle, smiling, and beside him was the fierce beast of the leech, but the live leech that Wang Lin saw was only half a human height.

The leech took the lead in coming, and Wang Lin had the heart to resist but found that under the watchful eye of the leech, he couldn't even move.

"Well, it's you, you have the breath of my half body, interesting, and you seem to have slightly comprehended my artistic conception. It's a pity that it's the evil side, it's boring. The cockroach walked around Wang Lin.

The leech didn't seem to have seen enough, and looked back at the monk behind him, the monk didn't speak, just nodded slightly, and the lich approached Wang Lin, sniffed with his nose, and then said: "There are still some Taoist and Confucian breath, and the body is messy enough." “

At this time, the monk spoke: "Lichen, since this kid can comprehend the artistic conception of your evil half-body, but there is not the slightest malice on his body, isn't it the inheritor you are looking for?"

When the lion heard the monk's words, he spared Wang Lin many times, and did not forget to smell and lick Wang Lin, Wang Lin only felt creepy, but he couldn't move the slightest.

"Well, it's good, no malice, although the things in my body are messed up, but I don't have much time, just you. After speaking, he said to the monk, "Old monk, thank you!" After saying that, he rushed towards Wang Lin and merged into Wang Lin's body, Wang Lin suddenly felt that there was a very strange cultivation method in his mind, and just thinking about it made him feel very irritable.

The monk stretched out a finger at this time and pointed at Wang Lin in the air, Wang Lin only felt a cool feeling permeating his mind, and then his mind calmed down and his mood stabilized.

At this time, Wang Lin suddenly felt that he could move, he looked at the monk, and he was grateful and afraid. Xie is that the monk calmed Wang Lin's anger in time, because it was the lion that imprinted this irascible Dharma student in Wang Lin's mind, and this monk was clearly in the same group as the toad.

The monk smiled and looked at Wang Lin, but was about to speak but suddenly paused, shook his head, and with a wave of his big hand, Wang Lin lost consciousness and fell into darkness.

The monk sat in the lotus pond and said lightly: "Since you are here, don't hide it." “

Kong Mengru put his hands behind his back, appeared from the void, and said directly and loudly: "Buddha! This Wang Lin is my apprentice, you are clearly grabbing seedlings from my Confucianism!"

The Buddha looked at Kong Mengru with a smile and said, "Great Confucian, you misunderstood this seat, I just gave him a chance to form a Buddha relationship." ”

Kong Mengru snorted, turned around to leave, and a voice came out: "You better take a good look at your good disciple, I see his skillful routine under the broken mountain cliff, this evil law cultivation is about to become a demon." ”

The Buddha did not stop Kong Mengru from leaving, but said: "There is no demon in this world, it is just a dream bubble, it is just an idealistic effect, and it is self-generated." If you don't pay attention to the appearance, the demon is also a Buddha, and if you are confused by all the appearances in this world, the Buddha is also a demon. ”

Kong Mengru turned his back to the Buddha, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he sped up his movements, and disappeared in a flash.
