Chapter 10: The Valley Inn

In more than ten days, Wuchen used a hundred years of internal strength to dispel toxins in Meng Kang's body, wiped his skin with medicinal wine, and took the strange medicine of Changchun Valley orally.

Although he often feels weak and weak, but after all, he has saved this life, and Meng Kang also thinks that he is a good star, and he can meet a peerless master like the dustless Taoist, otherwise if he is replaced by others, even if he is cured, he will probably fall into the root of the disease for a lifetime.

The Dustless Dao Master once passed on to him a set of basic internal skills, although it was not as advanced as the martial arts of Changchun Valley, but it was definitely not something that ordinary people could peep at.

Meng Kang can also understand Wuchen's concerns, after all, the name of master and apprentice has not yet been implemented, and it is already a thousand thanks to teach some skills hastily, how can he be cautious?

For Wuchen, this kind of martial arts is like roadside dust, but he can't look down on the side of the door at all, if this kind of inferior kung fu, he regards it as a treasure, cares, and does not fulfill the friendship of the landlord, will it not damage his prestige as a real person?

Meng Kang lives next door to Shen Xinghe, although this person has a very bad temper, but he is not bad, seeing that Meng Kang practiced the golden knife knife, slightly clumsy, so he gave him a childhood wind lancet.

If the steps are messed up, Shen Xinghe is like thunder, he can't rub the slightest sand in his eyes, step by step, step by step, step by step, it can be regarded as honing Meng Kang.

Now he is very stable, the thunder can't move, and a set of seven-star footwork can be regarded as a bit of a god.

Zhuo Yifan is also not stingy, and he brings all the medicinal wine that he is reluctant to drink on weekdays, and the three of them really look like brothers.

At noon the next day, Zhuo Yifan brought food to Meng Kang, and when he saw that his brother was coming, he quickly got up from the bed and shouted a little playfully: "Senior brother, how are you doing lately?"

Zhuo Yifan heard his words, laughed again and again, and said: "Hahaha, Brother Meng, don't joke, you haven't apprenticed yet, you can't be commensurate with a brother." ”

Meng Kang sighed when he heard this, stretched out the chair and sat down heavily, his head almost lowered into his crotch.

He sighed, and for some reason, Zhuo Yifan sat down beside him and comforted: "Little brother, don't be discouraged, as the saying goes, you have already gone through a ghost gate, God must not let you suffer anymore." ”

Meng Kang didn't think so, and sighed: "You can say something nice, my brother is bitter in his heart." ”

Zhuo Yifan was very puzzled, and said: "You have had no worries about food and clothing since you were a child, and your family has a lot of money at the age of sixteen, and you are already a thousand households in Xing at the age of the weak crown, and you are in Kochi County, what is your suffering?"

Meng Kang glanced at him, raised his hand to hammer his chest, let out a long breath, and said: "Look at it, this is the misunderstanding that others have about me! I have loved martial arts since I was a child, and the swords and swords on the rivers and lakes are where my heart is, and I do business completely to revitalize the family business, but I didn't expect that the more I do it, the more I do it, the more I can't get out of it, I just have some leisure, and I want to buy a family business, alas......"

Zhuo Yifan couldn't cry or laugh when he heard this, and only said: "With silver in hand, it will be as distressed as you, rare, rare!"

Meng Kang saw that he didn't understand himself, so naturally he wouldn't be embarrassed, so he insisted on convincing the other party, so he only sulked and picked up chopsticks to eat.

After a few bites, there was a rapid knock on the door, Meng Kang didn't raise his head, and he didn't need to guess to know that it was Shen Xinghe's naughty boy.

Zhuo Yifan got up and walked to the door, stretched out his hand to open two doors, and as expected, it was really Shen Xinghe.

Seeing that Meng Kang was still eating, he snorted coldly, hugged his shoulders, and said angrily: "Eat quickly, eat quickly, after eating, Master will take you to see the scenery of Changchun Valley, and say that you must do your best to fulfill the friendship of the landlord." ”

When Meng Kang heard this, he ate a few bites of food, then put down the chopsticks, swallowed the rice without chewing a few bites, and said busily: "Don't let the old-timers wait for a long time, just let you go." ”

As soon as he got up, Shen Xinghe said: "Don't make these false tricks, if it weren't for the ...... between your father and master thirty years ago" Before he finished speaking, Zhuo Yifan hurriedly covered his mouth and whispered in his ear, and only let go after a while.

Although Meng Kang was puzzled, he was embarrassed to ask, and at the moment, he couldn't wait for the dust-free road chief, so he hurriedly ran out of the door.

Shen Xinghe took him outside the courtyard, and saw Wuchen standing in the center, closing his eyes and recuperating, like an old fairy.

Meng Kang ran forward, saluted respectfully, Wuchen smiled, looked leisurely and complacent, and said, "I call you a child, do you mind?"

How dare Meng Kang say no, hurriedly said yes, seeing him so humble, Wuchen smiled again, stroked the white beard, and said: "I am like a brother to your father, in the end, you still have to call me uncle, call you a child, you don't suffer, don't remember it, hate the old way." ”

Meng Kang hurriedly said: "How dare you, how dare you, the older boy is more than sixty years old, don't say a little child, what's the matter if you call a child, it all depends on the will of the seniors." ”

Although there is a sense of humility in his speech, but in Wuchen's heart, this is completely from the heart, not flattery, seeing his appearance, I can't help but recall decades ago, and sigh: "Okay, I was born like your father, a polite gentleman." ”

Meng Kang just smirked and didn't respond.

After a while, Wuchen let Shen Xinghe go back to his room to rest, and he took Meng Kang to enjoy the scenery between the valley, and then talked about the four wonders of the immortal Changchun Valley.

According to the order of east, west, north and south, they are Longquan in the east, purple bamboo forest in the south, Yongquan in the west, and Changchun Valley in the north.

The old Tao spoke vividly, as if the wonders of the four places were close in front of him, and Meng Kang was very yearning for it.

Wuchen pointed to the east and said with a smile: "There is no evidence, I am afraid that you will say that the old way will deceive you, and I will take you to take a look." ”

Meng Kang nodded in agreement, and followed behind Lao Dao, Wuchen's pace was slow, but the speed was extremely fast, and Meng Kang's legs were weak and panting along the way, but he didn't see Wuchen's face red.

When the dust stops, you will see a waterfall in front of you, flying straight down, the sound is clear and pleasant, and its water potential is like a swimming dragon.

The surrounding fog is misty, the water is fast, the water droplets hit the boulders, the beads splash, and its sound is noisy, but it can bring a different kind of peace of mind.

The old road walked a few steps forward, there is a wooden bridge in front of you, walk along the small bridge, there is a hidden stone step next to the waterfall, if you don't look closely, it is really difficult to find.

This stone step is polished by the waterfall, and its appearance is the same as jade after a long time, and Wuchen walked up to the front, followed by Meng Kang.

After walking more than a dozen steps, there is only a fist away from the waterfall, the old road raised his hand and pointed at it, Meng Kang looked at the place where he pointed, and saw a stone cave, there was a stone plaque on the door, and there were four big characters on it: Luan Fengshui Pavilion, the word dragon flying and phoenix dancing, vigorous and powerful, Meng Kang couldn't help but appreciate: "Good words!"

Wuchen only looked up and smiled, and didn't say a word.

The stone cave is not as noisy as outside, only the sound of running water ticking crisply, there is a big bed inside, there are seventy-two murals on the stone wall next to it, there are countless exquisite changes in the method, the ingenuity of the internal strength is really incredible.

The two walked forward, but Wuchen didn't show anything unusual, but the more Meng Kang looked at the mural, the more dizzy he felt, until he saw the thirty-sixth pair, his head was dizzy, he couldn't bear it, his heels were unstable, and one fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Wuchen stretched out his hand to help him up, and said in his heart: "In the past, there were very few painters in Changchun Valley who could see fourteen paintings, and it was rare for me to be able to reach twenty-two painters in a hundred years, and he could see the thirty-sixth painting, which is really a superior qualification, not bad, not bad......"

Meng Kang was dizzy and didn't dare to open his eyes to look at the stone wall paintings again, dustless beard, and said with a smile: "If it is really the son of Brother Meng, the qualifications are really superior, the tiger father has no dogs, and the ancients are honest and do not deceive me." “

Meng Kang thought it was an old-fashioned greeting and praise, but he didn't take it to heart, just clasped his hands and fists, and replied: "Where is it, how can the kid be compared with his predecessors."

Wuchen waved his hand again and again after hearing this, and smiled: "You must not be modest, there are very few people who can see thirty-six paintings." What's more, your father Meng Shan's martial arts were not inferior to the old way, and he has been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for decades, no matter who meets your father, he will not dare to say that he is undefeated. “

Meng Kang frowned when he heard this, and said in his heart: "Father still has such ability, why didn't he leave me any martial arts secrets back then? Only one ancestral house and one pharmacy were left behind?"

Wuchen knew that he was puzzled, so he asked, "Don't you know?" I, your father, the daughter of the Qin family, the three of us have the same name side by side, didn't your father tell you?"

In his memory, his father was an honest and duty-oriented businessman, and he rarely even had a temper on weekdays, and he was respectful to everyone he met.

When he was born, his mother died in childbirth, and his father was depressed, and in five years, his father lost all his family business and was depressed, and he couldn't afford to be sick.

Later, he was taken care of by his uncle Meng Jiao, and when he was sixteen years old, he went to Kaifeng Mansion alone to do business.

Later, he hit the big luck, worshiped Cai Jing as his father-in-law, and returned to his ancestral land to become a big official, so he made a lot of friends in the rivers and lakes, and everyone heard about his father Meng Shan.

But most of the words are praise and compliments, and they are all praise for his father as a good person, and he is by no means a generation of masters in Wuchen's mouth.

Meng Kang pondered for a moment and asked, "Senior has a high birthday this year?"

Wuchen pinched his fingers and said, "It's more than eighty." “

Meng Kang thought about it, knowing that his father was fifty years old when he died, and thirty years ago, his father was more than twenty years old, how could he be as famous as Wuchen?

But what reason does Wuchen have to deceive himself? Meng Kang said: "Senior, who is the daughter of the Qin family?"

Wuchen closed his eyes and recalled, and replied in a moment: "Back then, the Tiankui Sect had eight Dharma Protector Venerables, your father was one of the eight departments, and there were two daughters of the Qin family, one served as the deputy sect leader, and the other served as the hall master, and then your father took one of them away to live in seclusion, and since then the Tianhua Sect has been in turmoil, and some of its eight Tianlong have set up their own doors, and some have lived in seclusion in the city, and now I don't know who the bishop is." “

Meng Kang understood a little, but he was puzzled, and just wanted to ask again, but Wuchen hurriedly interrupted: "I have already appreciated most of this place, I will take you to other places for a walk." “

Meng Kang saw that the Taoist chief looked slightly displeased, and for some reason he would divert the topic and interrupt what he was thinking, but there must be a hidden secret.

He didn't want to ask at the moment, so he only agreed to leave with him.

After watching the purple bamboo forest in the south and the spring in the west, all of them are beautiful scenery in the world, but the bottom of the Changchun Valley in the north made Meng Kang a little stunned. Wuchen stood on the edge of the cliff, pointed downward, and said: "Flying and jumping, a dead vine can be seen between breathing, grasp it and stabilize itself, then let go, and repeat it several times to reach the bottom of the valley." “

Meng Kang was already sweating profusely when he heard him, and a lot of cold air was rising from his back, and his legs began to weaken.

Wuchen saw that he was a little stunned, so he comforted: "Don't worry, when you go to the bottom, I will use my internal strength to help you and ensure that you are unscathed." “

Hearing this, Meng Kang was relieved, plucked up his courage, bent his legs, and jumped hard!

Even though he was fully prepared, he still couldn't help screaming again and again, Wuchen laughed when he saw this, jumped up, rolled up Meng Kang with his big sleeves, and shouted loudly: "Go!" Meng Kang spun around in the air several times, his head was dizzy, and he flew near the vine, and he was quick to grab the vine!

Wuchen is not as embarrassed as Meng Kang, stepping on the stone wall with one foot, flying down vertically with a slight force, hitting the ground with both palms in the air, only listening to the sound of "bang", Wuchen turned over and turned over, and slowly landed on the ground with the help of the palm wind, and there was no trace of dust on the robe, which can be described as chic and free.

Wuchen fell to the ground, but Meng Kang still clung to the vines, his palms continued to ooze sweat, and he gradually couldn't support it, and he didn't slide to the bottom!

Wuchen was not in a hurry, took a step forward, raised his palms high, Meng Kang just fell, Wuchen went to catch it with both palms, moved his steps backwards, unloaded his arms, pointed to the ground on his toes, and turned around to pick it up steadily, and then slowly put Meng Kang down.

Meng Kang's whole person was already stupid, his eyes were blank, and he was obviously overly frightened and panicked.

Wuchen put him on the ground and pointed out various acupoints for him, and a warm current flowed to all parts of his body in the dantian, and he was extremely comfortable up and down, and after a while, he eased up, Meng Kang choked and suddenly coughed.

Wuchen shook his head again and again, and said, "Let's take a look at it." “

Meng Kang only felt like he was sleepwalking, and he didn't know what was going on, and he only felt that he had walked around the ghost gate.

In a trance, he heard the call of the Taoist chief, so he hurriedly got up, patted the dust on his body, and followed him left and right.

Wuchen went all the way forward, introducing the things around him, this place is not like the scenery he saw just now, there are only dead trees and weeds everywhere, and there are a few wild beasts gnawing on unknown rotting corpses, with a fierce light in their eyes, which made Meng Kang hurriedly hide behind Wuchen, not daring to make a sound.

Wuchen saw that he was panicked and scared, and said with a smile: "This is the bottom of my Changchun Valley, the dead trees and weeds you see are all rare poisons, the name of the tree is evergreen, the name of the grass is broken and the bones are scraped, the beasts here have names, and it is a waste of tongue to say them one by one, you just need to remember that the beasts at the bottom of the valley only eat carrion and will not hurt people." “

Meng Kang felt a little less frightened when he heard him, but when he saw the carrion corpses that had been eaten and separated, he felt a little more disgusting and disgusting in his heart.

After walking forward for a while, he saw an inn not far ahead, Wuchen's face changed drastically, he stretched out his hand to stop Meng Kang, and said, "Hugh wants to take a step closer." ”

Meng Kang was puzzled and asked, "Why is this place listed as a forbidden place by the seniors?"

Wuchen snorted coldly, raised his eyebrows, slightly angry, and said: "The old things, don't mention it, it's not you...... Forget it, forget it, it's no wonder to you for this, and it's no wonder for others, it's me who has too good face, which made her suffer, but it's a pity that she has come to this point in her life, let's go. “

Ignoring Meng Kang, he grabbed his shoulders, bent his knees slightly, jumped up more than three feet in the air, stepped on the stone wall, and reached the peak in a few steps.

With both arms exerted, he threw Meng Kang up violently, and Wuchen stepped on the stone wall in two or three steps before going up.

But Meng Kang was wrong, it stands to reason that this arm was enough to send Meng Kang up the mountain, but he never thought that he would throw it in the wrong place, the corner of Meng Kang's clothes hung on the tree, and the branch bounced him down again with the remaining strength!

Meng Kang screamed again and again, never thinking that another dead tree would hang him, Meng Kang breathed a sigh of relief, raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, and kept playing in his heart.

But the branch creaked, and seemed to be about to break at any moment, and he grabbed the branch in horror, and even put his legs on the trunk, and was terrified with fear, and rushed up with a crying voice: "Dao Chief, old man, help! Father, mother, who can come to save me!"

No matter how he shouted, but no one came to save him, Meng Kang dressed up again and again in order to relax, but with such a move, the branches broke in response, and even the people and the trees fell straight into the valley!

At the last moment, in the inn in the barren place, a yin wind blew, blowing the paper window open, and with a whoosh, a plain sleeve flew out, rolling Meng Kang up, and the inn let out a coquettish smile like a silver bell.
