Chapter 4: Departure
"Young master, get up, then hurry up and wash up, Lu Han's wild Taoist priest has already rented a carriage, so we don't need to walk in the future." ”
Ah Zhu smiled and looked very happy, it takes a lot of money to rent a carriage to go to Qingcheng Mountain, Lu Han took the initiative to rent a carriage, saving him an expense, and the road doesn't have to be so hard.
After washing, Bai Mingqi saw that there were steamed buns, steamed buns, porridge, fritters and other foods on the table, which were very hearty.
His eyes lit up, and without saying a word, he directly grabbed a bun and took a bite of it, with a satisfied face, and said with a smile: "Bun...... Steamed buns, large ...... Big meat buns. ”
After being on the run for so many days, eating a hearty breakfast for the first time made him feel like he was in tears.
Lu Han handed a bowl of steaming soy milk in front of him, and raised his eyebrows: "Eat slowly, no one will rob you." ”
Ah Zhu seemed to be accustomed to it, and said with a smile: "The young master eats a lot of food, you will know it in the future, but you won't gain weight no matter how you eat, young master, eat more, you don't have to be polite, these are all treats from this Lu Hanye Taoist." ”
Bai Mingqi nodded vigorously, and then gobbled it up, where is there still half a young master's appearance, he is simply an out-and-out big foodie.
"Wild Taoist, where is the coachman. ”
Ah Zhu looked at the carriage in front of him and was stunned, two jujube red horses, half-new carriages, but he didn't see the coachman.
Lu Han pointed at Ah Zhu, and said with an expressionless face: "Basically, no coachman is willing to go from Wuyang Town to Qingcheng Mountain, so I bought this carriage, of course, this is all my savings, and I don't have half a penny of silver on my body, even if there is a coachman who is willing, he is shy in his pocket, and he can't afford it." ”
Ah Zhu naturally knew the price, thinking of the only remaining silver taels, but there was no extra silver taels to squander the coachman, it was impossible to ask his young master to catch the car, he gritted his teeth: "Okay, I'll come, anyway, the car is crowded with three people, but I have a request, when my young master is practicing, don't disturb him."
"Cultivation, okay, I won't bother him. ”
Lu Han nodded, and soon the carriage was moving, Ah Zhu had also driven the carriage before, and now he picked up the horsewhip again, and it was just a return to his old business.
The carriage is relatively simple, there is nothing extra except for the soft cushion, Bai Mingqi was still a little dissatisfied at first, he used to sit in the carriage with a coffee table, blankets, snacks, everything, but now when he thinks of the situation, he is a little lost.
And it was the first time he knew that when walking outside, the silver taels were so important.
Why did he think of eating, and he was a little hungry in his stomach, he quickly shook his head, and forgot these thoughts, now is the time to flee, and there is a shortage of silver on his body, and it is definitely not the time to enjoy it, he still knows this, and he will not lose his temper young master.
"What's the matter, Young Master Bai is not satisfied with my arrangement?"
Lu Han, who was sitting next to him, saw that he was disappointed, and said with a chuckle.
"What am I talking about in my current status, young master, now that my family is ruined and in exile, it would be good to have a hot meal to eat. ”
Bai Mingqi said here, remembering the past and now, his own servant died tragically, and his mother died outside in order to protect himself, and he could only bury it hastily, and suddenly his eyes were red, his nose was sour, and he began to choke, and after a while, teardrops the size of beans rolled out of his eyes.
"Alright, alright, what does a big man look like when he cries and cries? I can't bear this setback, and it will be even more difficult to embark on the path of cultivation in the future. ”
When Lu Han saw Bai Mingqi like this, he was upset for a while, so he no longer made fun of him, but his mind became even heavier.
Bai Mingqi took a breath and tried to regain his composure, not letting the sadness envelop him: "If you also encounter this incident, your heart will not be calm, okay, although you didn't fight to the death with that spirit envoy yesterday, presumably this road will not be peaceful, we need to be more careful." ”
"Don't worry, the strength of the spirit envoy is not enough to hunt us down every day, we don't need to worry about it during the day, you seem to be a little different today than yesterday, not bad. ”
Lu Han pulled the curtain and glanced at the green mountains outside, turned his head to look at Bai Mingqi, who was ruddy, and spoke lightly.
Bai Mingqi nodded, gritted his teeth and said, "Because I have already started cultivating, one day, I will personally find that demon demon to take revenge." ”
"It's good to have this kind of thought, by the way, what are you going to Qingcheng Mountain for? Do you want to enter Qingcheng Xuanzong? This Qingcheng Xuanzong is a well-known existence in the Xuanmen Taoist Sect, even if you accept disciples, you must have roots and bones, and someone must sponsor you. ”
Lu Han looked at Bai Mingqi curiously.
Bai Mingqi was stunned for a moment: "Do you need someone to sponsor you to enter Qingcheng Xuanzong? Do you still need the roots of cultivation? My mother didn't say that, my mother said that my grandfather was in Qingcheng Xuanzong, and this time, I went to ask for protection." ”
"What's your grandfather's name?"
Lu Han asked.
"My mother said that her name was Cheng Qingshan, but because of my father's affairs since I was a child, we broke off contact with Qingcheng. ”
Bai Mingqi pursed his lips and said sullenly, he had seen his grandfather when he was very young, and now he only remembers the big warm hands, and his face has blurred.
"Cheng Qingshan?!Isn't this stinky boy the head of Qingcheng Xuanzong, if it is really your grandfather, then he must not need a sponsor, let alone the spiritual root that cultivators need.
Moreover, now that you have Taoist true qi in your body, you must also have a spiritual root, if an ordinary person has no spiritual root, he will not be able to cultivate at all, and your qualifications are very good. ”
Lu Han glanced at Bai Mingqi in some surprise, and began to look carefully, he really looked away yesterday, but now he can feel the Taoist true qi in him, although these true qi mana is very weak.
"Don't be disrespectful to my grandfather! ”
Bai Mingqi glared at Lu Han angrily, his mouth cocked, although he was very dissatisfied with his grandfather for so many years, after all, his mother was his biological daughter, even if he died, he didn't see each other again, but this is their grievance, how can he tolerate an outsider, or a person of the same age as Bai Mingqi?
Lu Han laughed secretly and stopped talking, as if he was caught in some kind of memory.
After Bai Mingqi glanced at Lu Han, he began to sit in the carriage and concentrate on cultivation, the crisis has not been resolved, he is not as good outside as he is at home, he used to be protected by his own mother at home, but now it is not as good as before, he must become stronger!
Originally, his roots and bones were very good, and he began to cultivate since he was a child, when he was only a few years old, his grandfather came to take him to Qingcheng Mountain to cultivate, but because of Bai Mingqi's parents, he did not succeed, and later when he grew up, he began to play greedily and practiced intermittently, but the foundation was there, and after many years, it was picking it up, and it was also making rapid progress, far from being comparable to ordinary people.
The faint true qi in the body began to circulate in the major acupoints of the body, forming a cycle, that is, a week, and after a week, the true qi mana in the body was a few points stronger than before.
However, if you continue to cultivate at this rate, when will you be able to break through the first layer of the Righteous Qi Technique in the Xuanyin Heart Sutra?
The carriage suddenly began to jolt violently, and there was an exclamation outside, Bai Mingqi was just in time to finish his work, and immediately pulled the curtain to look out.
Azhu fell to the side, covered in mud, and the carriage sank into a pit that was just big enough for a carriage to pass by, surrounded by green grass and sparse trees.
"Young master, don't come down, otherwise there will be no replacement for your clothes if they get dirty. ”
Ah Zhu got up and spoke very embarrassed.
"You can't lift the carriage alone, and I'll help you. ”
Bai Mingqi didn't mind, and jumped out of the carriage, but as soon as he came, a pair of feet sank into the mud, and he felt the water soak his boots little by little, and his face became extremely embarrassed.
Ah Zhu pursed his lips and chuckled, seeing that his young master's face was gloomy, he stopped talking, and the two stood next to him and began to lift the carriage vigorously, but the wheels shook and slid down again.
Lu Han in the car opened his eyes, reached out and took out a yellow talisman from his arms, chuckled lightly and then put it on the carriage, then leaned out, picked up the horsewhip and whipped it.
The horse was in pain, and raised its hooves and flew up, and the carriage became lighter because of the yellow talisman.
The wheels rolled, splashing a lot of mud and falling on Bai Mingqi's master and servant.
"Lu Han!"
Bai Mingqi was almost crazy, climbed into the carriage, looked at Lu Han who was smiling lightly, frowned, and then took off his boots and called out to the other party's face, but was easily dodged by the other party.
"If it weren't for me, we wouldn't know how long we would be sleepy, don't be angry, let's hurry, or we'll have to spend tonight in this wilderness." ”
Lu Han grabbed his boots and put them outside the car window to shake off the mud, and then spoke.
Because the weather was cloudy and cold, especially in this kind of deep mountains and old forests, the cold was heavy, so he had to shrink his feet and sit up cross-legged and start cultivating, and the true qi mana filled in his body began to dispel these chills that were so thick that they couldn't be dissolved.
This section of the mountain road was very difficult to walk, and finally the carriage stopped again, and Ah Zhu's head poked in, with a sad face, and a sheepskin map in his hand: "Young master...... Can...... Probably lost. ”
"If you follow the map, you can get lost?"
Bai Mingqi knocked Ah Zhu's head, reached out to take the map, and after taking a look, he walked out of the carriage.
