The ancient view is based on the green mountain, and the palace pillow is blue. The mountain breeze of Yukou is gentle, the cliffs on both sides stand up, the pines and cypresses are verdant, the grass and trees are abundant, the stream between the cliffs is clear, and the spring flows murmuring.

Although it is the middle of summer, it is cool and pleasant here, do not feel the humidity and heat, listen to the branches and leaves dancing, the water gurgling, occasionally the swallow song of the warbler is harmonious, it is very pleasant to the ear, it really makes people feel refreshed and happy.

The stream is on the left, the green smoke is curling, and the purple gas is rising, which is a true Taoist temple. The surrounding ancient trees are towering, and the green shade covers the sun, which is a quiet and wonderful place.

The hanging plaque outside the temple is called "Yuquan Courtyard", and a few pilgrims enter and exit from time to time, which makes this immortal temple a little more fireworks in the world. An old man and a young man stopped at the outside, the old man's body was dirty and tattered, the navy blue fabric turned black, the sleeves were even more polished, and he was carrying nine swords, naturally he was the sword slave Gongye He, a six-year-old boy on his side, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, was Shen Yuan, the son of Shen Jun, the hero of Qingyun.

"Stinky old man, is this the place to Xiyue Huashan?" Shen Yuan's gaze passed through the Taoist temple, only to see the mountain high into the clouds, not to see its peak, so majestic, it was the first time he had seen it in his life.

Gongye He heard the sound, raised his eyes and looked into the distance, his cloudy eyes were full of endless vicissitudes, and sighed softly: "Well, yes, the news of your father's death, you have to tell his bullshit master." ”

"My father's master is in this courtyard?" Shen Yuan pointed to the Yuquan Courtyard and said, "What kind of place is this? You are also a Taoist priest here?"

"! Lao Tzu is not a stinky Taoist here!" Gong Yehe looked disgusted, "This is your father's Shimen Huashan faction, this is the gateway to Huashan, those princes and nobles with wine bags and rice bags often come to Huashan to worship, but because of the danger of Huashan, they can't go up the mountain, so they have to settle down here to enter the incense." ”

Shen Yuan's eyes rolled, and he said, "Liar, if you are not a Taoist priest here, why do you know so much detail?"

"Did Lao Tzu do it before?" Gongye was so angry that he glared, if someone else asked him like this, that person must have died in Jiuquan, but for Shen Yuan, Gongye He somehow, although the words on his lips were vulgar, sometimes even vicious, but he always had unspeakable love in his heart.

Because of this, the noisy and noisy along the way made Shen Yuan relieve the grief in his heart a lot. Gongyehe's unrestrainedness also made Shen Yuan have a lot of rules, and even changed his title to "stinky old man".

Shen Yuanqi said, "Oh?"

Gongyehe stood for a long time, and only said: "Come with me." ”

At this moment, the sun is hanging high, and the mountain gate is open. Gongye and Shen Yuanli ignored the Taoist priest guarding the mountain gate, the two Taoist priests were about to salute and ask, their hands were raised halfway, and they were just about to make a sound, but the old and the young had already entered the courtyard, leaving only the two of them staring at each other with big eyes and a blank face.

The green shade in this garden covers the sky, the ancient meaning is deep, a good fairy blessed land, although it is not as interesting as the Jiangnan garden, unique ingenuity, but it is better in the quiet and elegant, back to the basics.

The two walked along the bluestone road to the Xiyi Temple in the center, and at this time they met a good guest, seeing that Gongye He and Shen Yuan were in tatters, although they were disdainful in their hearts, they were afraid of the prison and did not dare to be too lazy, so they hurriedly said: "Fusheng Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, where are you a Taoist priest, what are you doing in my Huashan?"

Gongye and Tingzhike's tone was a little contemptuous, and his heart was unhappy, so he stood in the middle of the road, squinted at Zhike, and only said: "Who is your prison, tell him to come here to see me quickly." ”

The Huashan faction is a famous family in the world, and the Yuquan Courtyard is even more famous, how many dignitaries and nobles come here to speak politely, and the acquaintance of the guest Na Cheng thought that such a strange and strange old Taoist would dare to speak disrespectfully here, so he changed his face and scolded: "What a thief and old man, so arrogant! As the head of the Seven Houses of Huashan, how can you be allowed to drink here? Don't pee and take a picture of what you are!"

Gongye He's face was cold, Shen Yuan felt the slightest chill emanating from Gongye He's body, and hurriedly said to Zhike: "You don't go quickly, there is so much nonsense, and your life is important!" Along the way, Shen Yuan really saw a lot of Gongye and murder, and when he saw Gongye and his right thumb and index finger rubbing, he knew that this was Gongye and murderous intent.

"Xiao Huazi, how can you speak here!" The acquaintance didn't know what to do, but came to scold Shen Yuan, Shen Yuan sighed secretly, and said in his heart: "The dog bites Lu Dongbin!" So he kept his mouth shut and didn't speak.

In fact, on the way here, before Gongyehe killed someone, Shen Yuan had persuaded his subordinates to be merciful, but Gongyehe was a person who couldn't listen to persuasion, although he was scolded by a confidant at this moment, but Shen Yuan was kind by nature, and he really didn't want this person to die because of his contemptuous words.

At the moment when he stepped forward to persuade again, he saw Gongye pull out the Qingshuang sword in a peaceful manner, and the acquaintance only felt that the cold air was domineering, and he saw the blade slowly resting on his neck, but he couldn't dodge it if he wanted to, I don't know if it was because he was moving too fast or his legs were weak because of the chill it carried, and at this moment, he regretted it.

The other Taoist priests in the courtyard were all taken aback when they saw this scene, and no one could have imagined that someone would dare to spread wild in the Yuquan Courtyard. However, the Huashan faction is worthy of being a martial arts faction, and in an instant, more than a dozen sword-wielding Taoist priests surrounded Shen Yuan and Gongye He, and the tips of their swords were facing each other, and they were about to attack. One of them shouted: "Thief Dao! Don't be caught before you tie your hands! Don't go wild here!"

Zhike looked frightened, and he didn't dare to move, and shouted at the crowd: "Hurry, please go to the prison!"

"Stop!" shouted loudly, quieting the uncommon noise in the courtyard. Only some disciples breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's the prison court, it's the prison court that is here." ”

Shen Yuan saw it clearly, the person who came passed through the crowd, dressed in a navy blue robe, with a square face and big ears, a short beard and sideburns, and a righteous body.

"It's you, boy. Gongyehe saw the appearance of the person who came, and said lightly, "I haven't seen you for seventeen years, but you haven't changed much." ”

The man was shocked when he heard this, and after taking a closer look, he hurriedly bowed his hand and said in fear: "Disciple Xun Boji, see Uncle Shi." I also hope that Uncle Shi will show mercy to the disciples of this sect!"

Everyone listened to the conversation between the two, and it was even more inexplicable, most of the people present had entered the door in recent years, and only one or two slightly older Taoist leaders suddenly realized that they remembered some things in their early years.

"Hmph!" Gongyehe took the sword off Zhike's neck, and suddenly "Boom" made four consecutive sounds, Gongyehe casually waved the sword four times, only to hear Zhike's screams, and in an instant, four sword marks appeared, the tendons of his hands and feet were broken, and blood oozed out. All this, Xun Boji of the prison didn't even have time to react, and the acquaintance had already fallen to the ground and screamed, Xun Boji knew that this person was a waste.

Gongyehe put away the sword and said, "This is a small punishment." ”

Xun Boji sighed secretly, and thanked him: "Thank you Uncle Shi for your mercy!" and then ordered the disciples to carry the person down for healing and retreat from everyone. After the disciples dispersed, there was also a lot of discussion, and most of the identity of the sloppy old Taoist was already known, but the "Sword Slave", the demon who killed people without blinking, was once a member of the Huashan faction, and this news made some disciples really difficult to accept.

"Huashan Qisu, this name is loud. Gongye teased.

Xun Boji replied: "Let Uncle Shi laugh, it's just a fallacy on the rivers and lakes, not enough to worry about." ”

Gong Yehe shook his head and said, "You are still as humble as before, and it is appropriate for you to be in this prison." Let me ask you, who are in the Seven Nights?"

"The seven of them, including me, are all disciples of my master. ”

"Oh?"

"After Uncle Shi went down the mountain, his father died depressed, and before leaving, he passed the position of head to the family teacher, and then successively accepted Gongsun Zheng, Wu Qi, Feng Shixuan, Ji Wuya four junior brothers into the room, plus me, Ying Changtian and Chang Zhi, a total of seven people, in the past few years in the rivers and lakes, only to get the name of Huashan Seven Nights, let Uncle Shi laugh!"

"He Chongyun has taught a few good apprentices!" seemed to remember the past, Gongye He was a little embarrassed.

Xun Boji said with a smile: "Master said that Senior Brother Ji Wuya is most like his uncle, specializing in swordsmanship, and he is also a sword idiot. ”

Gongyehe's eyes lit up and said, "If there is a chance, I really want to see this Ji Wuya, where is he now?"

"Oh, he usually lives in the True Martial Hall with my master, but he has only traveled with a few junior disciples in the past few days, and he doesn't know where he is at the moment. Xun Boji pulled the family routine, did not treat Gongyehe as an outsider at all, nor was he afraid like others, which really made Gongyehe feel comfortable. I heard Xun Boji ask again: "Uncle Shi returned to the mountain this time, I don't know what is important?"

The breeze blew, making Shen Yuan feel refreshed, Fang Cai's saber rattling really made him sweat, not for anything else, but worried that this group of Taoist priests was not Gongyehe's opponent, but innocently died, so this ending was considered complete, Shen Yuan couldn't help but exhale, although he had seen a lot of murder along the way, but he still couldn't help but be nervous.

At this time, Gongye and Shen Yuan were dragged in front of him, Xun Boji had already noticed Shen Yuan's existence, and seeing that this child's clothes were also sloppy, he must have slept all the way and suffered a lot, so he asked, "Uncle Shi, who is this little brother?"

Gongyehe waved his hand, patted his belly, and said, "Lao Tzu hasn't eaten for a day, hurry up and get some wine and food, and I'll talk to you while eating." ”

Xun Boji patted his head, and then he thought that it was really rude to stand outside and talk all the time, and this courtyard was not a place to speak, so he hurriedly said: "Senior nephew was negligent for a while, uncle, little brother, please come with me." ”

The corridor in the courtyard is tortuous, the ancient trees are covered, Xun Boji led Gongye and Shen Yuan, and after a short time, they went to a guest room, let the two into the house, invited them to sit, served tea, and called the Taoist boy to prepare food. After a while, a table of vegetarian food was served.

Gongyehe looked at a table of vegetarian food, and he didn't even have a pot of wine, smacked his mouth, sighed, and said, "Damn, you can fade out of a bird." ”

Xun Boji smiled embarrassedly: "Uncle Shi, you also know that my true precepts are not as good as Zhengyi, and my nephew is a prison, so this wine and meat ...... It's really difficult. ”

"That's it, Lao Tzu will be able to use it. Gongyehe waved his hand, looking impatient.

Unlike Gongye He, Shen Yuan's hungry stomach growled, where can the child care about the wine and meat, only eating it on the side is extremely fragrant, the hot red bean rice is eaten in his mouth, the back of his head is full of aroma, and he heard the "crunch" sound, Shen Yuan is holding a pickled radish strip to his mouth, and he feels crispy and salty and fresh in one bite, and the soup made with green vegetables and tofu is even more fragrant and delicious.

Gongyehe looked at it incredible, and said in his heart: "What kind of bird flavor can this have?" Picking a dish, he took a pair of chopsticks and sent it to his mouth, shaking his head, it can be said that there is no wine and no meat, and the food does not know the taste.

"Uncle Shi, I don't know what you are here this time ......." Xun Boji asked halfway through his words, and Gongye He said, "Do you remember Shen Jun?"

Xun Boji was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Uncle Shen said that he was joking, how could I not remember Senior Brother Shen Jun?" With Senior Brother Shen's talent, he was also amazing and brilliant back then, and Senior Uncle Tan has always valued it, just because he was Uncle Shen at the beginning...... Hey! Only then did he have a disagreement with his uncle, and he was not allowed to go down the mountain. ”

Speaking of this, Xun Boji seemed to understand, and added that Shen Yuan's appearance was seven or eight points similar to Shen Jun, and asked, "Could it be that this child is the son of Senior Brother Shen?"
