Volume 1 The Ups and Downs of This Life Chapter 177 Seeking Seclusion in the Old Place
After deciding to go to Jianxiu Mountain, Li Xuandu and his entourage were originally going to go out of the city from the north city gate, so they changed it to go out of the city from the east city gate, but it turned out that the city gate was closed and the inventory was strict, Li Xuandu immediately thought of the conflict between him and the woman in the hat yesterday, although there were no loopholes in the road guide bought from Wenxiangtang, but it was inevitable to leave some clues. But this is also difficult for the group, Yan Feiqing is proficient in magic, found a secluded and uninhabited place, opened a yin and yang portal, and everyone passed through the portal, and they had already come to the outside of the city.
Although these methods are subtle, there is a necessary factor, that is, the word "stability", if there is no stable environment, or the qi is disordered, it is difficult to use, so it cannot be used when fighting with people and the army is attacking, especially when the two armies are fighting, they are all young and strong men with strong blood, and there is no lack of martial arts masters, and the two sides do things to kill, so the blood and evil qi of the army are the heaviest, and the most is to restrain the magic, because the magic is still a "fake as true" in the final analysis, in this environment, even if you are the great master of the heavenly and human realm, it is difficult to make contributions.
After leaving the city, Li Xuandu asked Yan Feiqing about the current situation in the rivers and lakes, after all, when he used to live in seclusion, he only read some brief text messages, and Hu Liang was free from good and evil, only characters like Yan Feiqing could really participate in and know many unknown things about the rivers and lakes.
Yan Feiqing did not hide it, and told him all he knew, especially the matter of Jing Zen Buddhism and Taiping Sect closing the mountain and closing the temple that Li Xuandu focused on, Yan Feiqing also had his own opinions, as the palace officials expected, in fact, Taiping Sect and Jing Zen Sect also participated in this "46 Dispute", but both sides are hiding behind the scenes, and the result is also obvious, both sides are losers, and the winner is Zhengyizong, maybe there is a Qingwei Sect, although Qingwei Sect lost the "46 Dispute" , but it has not hurt its vitality fundamentally, and it is still the object of competition from all parties, on the other hand, the Taiping Sect, even if it wins face, but loses the inside, it is still necessary to close the mountain and thank the guests.
Although Li Xuandu is also a person who has personally experienced this battle, he has already been "out" before the matter is over, and he is not as good as Yan Feiqing, one of the parties who has been involved in it from beginning to end, as to what the final result will be. As for whether there are people from the Ten Sects of the Evil Dao involved, Yan Feiqing did not give a positive or negative answer, for no other reason, the big fight is just a means, not an end, the real purpose is to seek by all parties, this kind of major matter is not something that the younger generation can decide, most of the old guys come forward in person, so Yan Feiqing is not clear about everything.
Jianxiu Mountain is located in the central part of Zhongzhou, along the way is not alarmed, as the autumn is getting stronger, the field of vision is a gratifying picture of a golden piece, which is not inferior to the south of the Yangtze River. After walking for a day, the golden color gradually decreases, the pines and cypresses are dense, and the verdant begins to appear, and the terrain is more and more undulating, the hills and mountains can be seen in the eyes, and soon gradually enter the deep mountains, and to the territory of Jianxiu Mountain, the sheep intestine trail at the foot is winding, the cliffs on both sides are towering, if it is cut out by the sword, the two cliffs and the first line of the trail form a landscape of a line of sky, squeeze the sky into a narrow line, make the mountain road obscure and inexplicable, and even some places are as dark as night.
The sheep intestine path was dim and shady, there were no guardrails on both sides, and the little girl who had only learned some physical fitness boxing skills walked tremblingly, but fortunately, Li Xuandu walked on her right hand, so she felt a little at ease.
Historically, literati and celebrities have visited immortals, and they have preferred this kind of place the most. The reason why this place is a visitor is because there is already an owner here, which is privately owned, and idle people are not allowed to trespass, even those who have money and leisure are merry and famous, and they can only look at it and sigh.
There have been many speculations about the master of Jianxiu Mountain, some say that it is the handiwork of the court magnates, some say that it is the hermitage of the famous mansions in the rivers and lakes, and it is said that there are several rich people in the world who have purchased it with a lot of money, and there are different opinions, but no one has ever seen the true face of the master of Jianxiu Mountain.
Of course, Li Xuan is an exception, he was considered to have strayed into this place back then, and met the owner of this place by chance, and the two sides hit it off at first sight.
Another journey, the sky in front of the sky, suddenly bright, both sides of the verdant, the road under the feet gradually smooth and open, in addition to the tall trees around, silent, occasionally a few slight birds and insects, people are refreshed.
Climbing the stairs, the green wood sandwiched the road, the cold wind was blowing, Li Xuandu took out a crane from the "eighteenth floor" and put it on the little girl, the villain with a coat, wrapped the whole person, the little girl was a little beauty embryo with pink makeup, so it added a lot of cuteness. Li Xuandu led the little girl to walk in front, Hu Liang and Yan Feiqing followed, and the four of them came to the mountainside unknowingly.
After getting closer, to the surprise of a few people, there was no trace of people on the entire lakeside, and there was no house near the lake, nor did it build a dock to moor a boat. Yan Feiqing couldn't help but say: "This master of Jianxiu Mountain is also different, such a beautiful scenery is not even half a point, and it is different from other hermits in Leshan and Leshui." ”
Li Xuandu smiled but did not say a word, and led the group around the lake.
After walking most of the way, a few people suddenly found that this lake is not stagnant water, but there is a small river from the mountain to connect, the river is as quiet as not flowing, inverting blue clouds, if this mountain is compared to a beauty, this river is a crystal hairband blown down from the woman's bun.
Swim up the river with a cave.
I saw that on the originally straight cliff, a huge arc was suddenly recessed, forming a very large opening, extremely shallow depth, like a hole but not a hole, covering an area of about one acre.
The site is surrounded by mountains on three sides, with only one facing the cliff and adjacent to the stone path up the mountain. Among them, there are lush green bamboos, and the bamboo waves sound when the wind rises, and in the shade of the bamboo forest, it is a quiet and quaint two-story bamboo building.
Hu Liang asked, "This is the residence of the master of Jianxiu Mountain?"
Li Xuandu shook his head and said, "This is the residence of the mountain guards. ”
When the words fell, I saw a short old man slowly walking out of the bamboo building, shriveled and thin, his beard was also sparse, and there was something pinned to his waist, but it was not a bamboo flute and jade flute, but a cigarette stick that was extremely incommensurate with the bamboo forest of this bamboo building, a jade mouth, an ebony rod, a brass pot, and a purse hung on the other side, which was filled with tobacco leaves.
Xiao Lao'er raised his eyelids and looked at the group, his eyes were burning, almost like a fine light, but after seeing Li Xuandu, his momentum suddenly dispersed, and he said with a smile: "It turned out that Li Gongzi arrived, these are Li Gongzi's friends?"
Li Xuandu nodded and said, "Exactly." ”
Xiao Lao'er glanced at the other three again, his eyes fell on Yan Feiqing's body, and said: "Since he is a guest of Li Gongzi, then Xiao Lao'er has no reason to stop him, Li Gongzi, please do it." ”
Li Xuandu hugged his fists and thanked him.
It was only at this time that Hu Liang suddenly understood why this Jianxiu Mountain could not allow others to climb the mountain, it turned out that there were people who guarded the mountain, and looking at his cultivation, he was also quite good, he didn't dare to say that he was compared with Yan Feiqing, but it was definitely higher than him.
can have such a mountain guard, and the origin of the master of Jianxiu Mountain is even more curious.
After the little old man said this, he returned to the bamboo building.
Li Xuandu and the others continued to move forward, and after here, the mountain road became narrow again, the small river was inside, the mountain road was outside, almost hanging on the mountainside, only allowing one person to walk, and the valley below was black and unfathomable. Li Xuandu simply carried the little girl on her back, and walked out of more than 200 zhang, faintly heard the sound of a waterfall, after turning the mountain wall, the eyes were bright, only to see a waterfall like a white dragon hanging upside down, flying a hundred feet, scouring out a waterhole, the source of the small river is from this, and the mountain road is straight to the waterfall.
Hu Liang looked at the waterfall with the sound of falling like a tiger roaring and thundering, and couldn't help but sigh: "The mountain road is narrow and slippery, and you have to cross the waterfall, and if you are not careful, you will fall off the cliff, even if there is no mountain guard, I am afraid that few people can get here." ”
