Volume 1 Chapter 219 Halfway Invited
On the rugged mountain road, a young man dressed in white walked side by side with a toddler old man.
The road down the mountain was narrow and uneven, and the old man held a dark green wooden cane, refused the support of the young man next to him several times, and walked cautiously.
Zhuo Yuming, who had just disembarked at the Chuiyun Mountain Ferry, walked beside the old man, looking at the old man who stubbornly refused his request for support, Zhuo Yuming was full of smiles. Listening to an old man at the ferry port before, he couldn't help but think of the young scholar in green clothes who was carrying a bamboo building on his back on the night mountain road many years ago.
"You young man has sharp legs and feet, go first, don't wait for me, a useless old man. ”
The old man raised his arm to wipe the sweat stains on his forehead, and said to Zhuo Yuming.
Zhuo Yuming smiled, stopped, and said with a smile to the old man: "Don't worry, although the old gentleman walks slowly, the juniors are not in a hurry anyway, and it is boring to be alone." Have a companion with the old gentleman, and there is someone to talk to on the way. ”
The old man in the silk robe and the wooden staff in both hands shook his head with a smile, and he was helpless against the insistence of the young man beside him. I was not reluctant, I saw a big rock on the side of the road, and sat down. The old man sat on the stone pier and gasped, took out a small gourd from the bag on his waist, uncorked it, and poured it into it.
The old man tilted his head, looked at Zhuo Yuming, who was standing beside him with his hands in his hands, and smiled: "Young man, what's your name, where are you going on this trip?"
Zhuo Yuming looked at the clouds and mist scenery of the mountain stream, heard the old man's question, turned his head, and replied with a smile: "Senior Zhuo Yuming, this trip is going to the Lotus Temple to burn incense and pray for blessings and keep safe." As for the old man, I hadn't seen him when I was on the ship before. ”
"The old man is old, he can't stand the wind, he hides in the room and reads, of course you haven't seen the old man. ”
Rubbing his sore legs, the old man smiled heartily.
Zhuo Yuming also nodded with a smile, glanced into the distance out of the corner of his eye, and arched his hand to the old man and said, "The old gentleman rests first, and the junior happens to see a friend, so he takes the first step." ”
"Go on, go, don't waste time with the old man, I'll be here for a while, if we can meet again, let's talk while drinking." There aren't many young people like you who are willing to talk to us old guys these days, and it's very rare. ”
The old man waved his hand, and Lian Sheng urged.
Zhuo Yuming's shoulders shook slightly, and the whole person disappeared in place.
In an instant, the white figure crossed the mountain road in one step and appeared at the foot of the mountain. When he took another step out and reappeared, he was already in the thick trees in the distance.
A strong man in gilded armor carried a pitch-black iron lance on his shoulder, and his face was full of playfulness.
Next to the strong man in armor stood an old Taoist priest, in a coarse linen robe, and a pair of somewhat tattered straw sandals. A clear face with a shallow smile looked like a fairy, with a dust whisk in the crook of his arm, and when Zhuo Yuming appeared in the woods, he gestured to him slightly.
"Are you two deliberately waiting for Zhuo here?"
Zhuo Yuming fell four or five feet away from the two of them, nodded to the Taoist, and asked with a smile.
When he was on the mountain road before, it should have been this Taoist who blew his breath and led himself over. At first, he thought that the old man was also their companion, but after a brief trial, he overturned the conjecture in his heart.
Anyway, no matter what the other party comes from, after all, he is in the light and the other party is in the dark. There are only a thousand days to be a thief in the world, how can there be a reason to prevent thieves for a thousand days, so I simply came over for a while to see which way the gods are.
"Zhuo Daoyou, the poor road is clear, and the one next to him is Shi Daoyou. The two of us came to invite Zhuo Daoyou to walk with me on Cuiwei Mountain, which is a poor road, to be a guest, I don't know if Zhuo Daoyou can appreciate his face. ”
The Taoist spoke, his tone was calm, and there was no rudeness at all.
The sturdy man standing on the side had a sneer on his face, and a trace of disdain in his eyes. The man held the tail end of the big lance made of fine iron in one hand, and it seemed that the big lance in more than 100 catties was like a light wooden stick, gently beating on the shoulder. The gilded armor on his shoulders was struck by the lance, and it made a sonorous sound.
"I don't know what the identity of the person behind the Qingjian Daoist is, if it is a dignitary, it is better to be respectful than to obey the order, and go to pay a visit with the Daoist. ”
Zhuo Yuming still looked smiling, and between his words, he seemed to be a close friend who had not seen him for many years with the Taoist with the same expression, and he was enthusiastically reminiscing about the past.
The old Taoist priest with the Taoist name "Qingjian" stroked his beard and smiled, and did not speak immediately, but gently waved his hand to the strong man beside him, signaling the stone Taoist friend who had already put the big lance across his waist to calm down. And this Qingjian Daoist is obviously the leader of the two, and at his signal, the Shi Daoyou who doesn't seem to have a good temper shakes his wrist again, and puts the nearly one-zhang long lance on his shoulder again, just looking at Zhuo Yuming who was dressed in white coldly, and did not hide his killing intent at all.
"I'm ashamed to say that I am not familiar with the boundaries of Zhongshenzhou, and I don't know where Chang Cuiwei Mountain is and how far away it is. If it's not far away, it's okay to accompany the Taoist chief for a while, but if it's too far away, and I make an appointment with a friend to meet a few days later, it's not good to break my trust. ”
Zhuo Ying looked extremely talkative, and asked with a serious face.
The old Taoist priest was a little surprised, this young man was not like that fledgling stunned young man, he was actually ready to do it, but he was just a perennial qi cultivation cultivator, and he was used to saluting first and then soldiering. If he hadn't been accompanied by himself, Shi Yijian, who was full of flesh beside him, would have already started with others at this time.
smiled, the old Taoist's tone was still very polite, "Zhuo Daoyou don't have to worry, the poor Cuiwei Mountain is only a hundred miles away from here, Daoyou go to drink a few cups of spiritual tea, grow wild vegetables in the mountains, and never delay the meeting between Zhuo Daoyou and his friends." ”
Zhuo Yuming nodded with a relieved expression, as if he was really worried about the round-trip time.
"Since it is only a hundred miles away, the Dao Chang is warmly invited, and it is not easy to push it down, so it will disturb the Dao Chang Qing Xiu. ”
The man who was carrying the big lance like an iron tower sneered, rose from the ground, and flew first. He had no interest in dealing with such unclear goods, and he couldn't get started, so he ran away in vain.
"Shi Daoyou is this cold character, Zhuo Daoyou don't blame, Daoyou, please. ”
Qingjian Daoist is obviously a character who receives people and treats things well, Zhuo Yuming smiled secretly in his heart, didn't say much, nodded to him, and got up and chased after the big man in armor.
Although I can't guess that the other party is behind the sect power, but after all, I still go to see it, if those people who are hiding behind are in that Cuiwei Mountain, it must be best to find out all of them. Even if you can get rid of these two people today, there will naturally be new obstacles in the future.
After making up his mind, Zhuo Yuming decided to take advantage of the situation and personally meet the person behind the scenes.
