Chapter 87: Don't Give Up (5)

Legend has it that the peak of Mt. Kogami was originally not high, but one night, a small peak flew up and pressed against it. So, with the addition of this Feilai Peak, the small god mountain seems to have been cast by the gods, and it suddenly rises above the surrounding mountains, making it look majestic.

In fact, not counting Feilai Peak, only the original peak is also quite high, already above the clouds.

In the mountain peak behind the Taoist temple of the Shangqing faction, a stone platform of Feilai Peak has not yet arrived, the Jianyun platform of 30 pings has been built here, there is a small stone path in the north of the Jianyun platform, obliquely upward, can be allowed to walk by a person.

On the top of this small stone path, along the stone wall on the west side, there is a very narrow grass hut with a square of five steps.

The grass house on the cloud platform seems to be located on the sea of clouds, and from a distance, the white clouds are around the grass house, and the smoke is swirling.

There was no superfluous furnishings on the dry floor of the cottage.

The wood grain is old and black, and there is an elderly Taoist sitting on the floor, with white hair and beard, and a clear face, the same as sitting on the floor, how long it has survived, it is difficult to tell.

The clouds grew thicker and thicker, and soon he couldn't see the floor he was sitting on.

Chang Xingzi came to the outside of the cottage, saluted, and said, "Uncle in charge, Chang Xingzi has something to report." ”

Guan Yunzi, the contemporary head of the Shangqing faction, was looking at the sea of clouds and was distracted, and after hearing this, he said: "Didn't you talk about it, everything in the faction was discussed with a few senior brothers, and Ling Yuanzi couldn't make up his mind, so he looked for your master, don't let him be lazy, the whole sect, if there is one person who is lazy, it's okay." ”

"It's not. Chang Xingzi lowered his head and said, "Master Master...... Ye Yunsheng came up the mountain. ”

A slight smile hung on the corner of Guanyun Dao's mouth, and his voice was hoarse and low, just like all old people, weak and low.

"You, the fifth senior brother, are finally willing to come to see his cheap master. ”

Chang Xingzi suddenly felt sad and said, "Uncle Ye, Ye Yunsheng, he didn't bring a sword!"

Guanyun Dao Chief was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook his head and said, "If he doesn't bring a sword, where will he come back?"

............

Ye Yunsheng took Ah Yu's hand and walked slowly past Ling Yuanzi. Ling Yuanzi had obviously pinched the sword trick, but he just didn't make a move.

Silently watching Ye Yunsheng walk up, the senior brother was disappointed and said, "Don't you even have the courage to pick up a sword now?"

Ye Yunsheng didn't look back, and whispered softly: "I don't want to come back in seven years, the first thing is to do it with everyone." ”

No matter how lightly he said, at a distance of a few steps, Ling Yuanzi's internal cultivation was profound, how could he not hear clearly?

Ling Yuanzi said: "Let me ask you, when you came back seven years ago and told the master that you were going to quit the rivers and lakes, what did the master say?"

Ye Yunsheng stood still, still didn't look back, he opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything.

It's like he's dumb.

Ling Yuanzi looked sad and said, "Have you forgotten what the master told you? He told you not to give up! Since you and Yu Wang Jian's predecessors went up the mountain, I have fought with you three hundred times, and I have never won a single move and a half, and I, the senior brother of the Shangqing faction, have lost face for more than ten years, and I have never given up, what reason do you have to give up?"

The more he spoke, the more angry he became, Ling Yuanzi's sleeves swayed, as if a strong wind was blowing, and the air around him flowed away, as if he was about to soar through the clouds.

"In order to pass on your holy swordsmanship, the master was punished by the Qing Palace on Longhu Mountain, so that he could not return to the mountain gate for the rest of his life. You are not grateful to Dai De, practice the swordsmanship well, and make a name for me in the Shangqing outside the mountain, but insist on withdrawing from the rivers and lakes! The poor master has been punished for you in vain, and because you have learned the most holy swordsmanship in your body, but you have left the Shangqing, and you have been punished by the general view to introspect yourself at the foot of Feilai Peak, and you spend most of the year in the Lu, as if you have thought about it on the wall!"

Ye Yunsheng gritted his teeth and endured the tears in his eyes, refusing to drop a drop. Pulling Ah Yu, continue to walk up.

The peaks of the mountains behind the Shangqing Guan, faintly in the bamboo sea have been revealed.

Looking up, half of the flying peaks, strange stones like forests, standing still in the clouds.

After walking more than 100 steps, the four Taoists on the bamboo sea jumped down and came to a rock wall.

Ling Yuanzi followed slowly, maybe he didn't know what to do when he caught up......

From the rock wall where the four Taoists stood, a narrow road slopes upward, which is naturally formed by the stone path and has not been chiseled by an axe.

This stone road to the steps above Ye Yunsheng, extending backwards, is the place where the Shangqing faction built a view.

The steps go up just to the back door of Guanzhong, which is open at this time, and there is an old Taoist priest standing outside the door.

Looking at the other side of the stone road outside the door, you can see the stone steps paved by the bluestone slab climbing up one by one, looking up along the stone steps, and then going up, it is the flying peak that is entwined with cloud silk, and the peaks and rocks are faintly visible.

Then the eyes fell a little, by the right-hand side of the platform in the center of a red tile and white wall of the archway, engraved with the words "see the cloud platform".

When you walk up, you can see a white stone platform around the torii, and fences are added on all sides.

On the side of this cloud platform, there is a small stone path, obliquely upward, along the stone wall, there is a five-step square very narrow grass house.

His master sat in it.

Looking at the sea of clouds.

If he wants to go up, he has to pass the stone road where the old Taoist priest is outside the back door.

At this moment, the figure of Changxingzi appeared on the small stone path above, and he saw Ye Yunsheng below, and the old Taoist, who was so anxious that he made light efforts, jumped down, came to the end of the stone road, stood behind the old Taoist, and said: "Master, the master is ......."

"Shut up!" The old Taoist priest's voice was like a bell, his momentum was soaring, he didn't see how to exert himself, he hid his inner breath, and the sound pressure rolled away like thunder.

In the distance, the sound of "shut up, shut up" came back after a while, but it was the echo of the surrounding mountains.

Before, Chang Xingzi felt that Ye Yunsheng was going to suffer, but he didn't have the anger he had before, only guilt.

At this time, he was stopped by the master, he didn't dare to disobey, he only lowered his head to look at the four senior brothers beside the rock wall, and the others didn't do anything, but Huo Longzi gave him a look.

The intention is obvious, that is, to let him calm down a little bit, and leave everything to the master.

Chang Xingzi smiled bitterly.

Ye Yunsheng faintly felt the other party's thoughts, but it added a sense of melancholy.

He took a deep breath and looked over to the cloud platform, where the master should be there by now......

"Hmph!" It turned out that the old Taoist priest saw that he was restless, and he ignored him, and suddenly became even more angry.

Without thinking much about it, he came to the old Taoist priest, bent down and saluted in a proper manner, and shouted, "I've seen Uncle Yangshan." ”

Uncle Yangshan has aged very quickly over the years, his beard is gray, there is a large black spot on the left side of his face, his skin is dull and wrinkled, only his eyes are as bright as arrows, and they are still as sharp as ever.

"Ye Yunsheng, where's your sword?"

Although he had been prepared in his heart, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed, sad, and painful after being questioned so many times on the way home.

The heart is complex, and it is difficult for a saint to understand.

The more this is the case, the more stubborn he becomes, even if Uncle Shi asks, he still doesn't want to explain.

He had empty hands and no long things, but in front of him, the Yangshan Daoist had a sword in his hand, which had been with him for more than forty years, sharp and strong.
