Chapter 41: Serendipity

"Still. Lei Ming's voice changed, and he looked at Lin Yi with a scrutinizing gaze, "The holy woman wants him to climb to the top of Kunlun alone, and you are not allowed to help, only he is allowed to be alone." ”

When Luo Shan heard this, he changed color and said worriedly: "There is a lot of wind and snow on the mountain, how can Lin Er climb to the top on his own? If he is trapped, who will save him?"

"No one can save him, life and death all depend on creation, the saint said that if he doesn't dare, then go back as soon as possible. Otherwise, I am afraid it will be too late to regret it when it encounters a snow disaster. Lei Ming waved his paw and said helplessly: "Actually, I also persuaded it, but the holy woman insisted on doing soβ€”just like you did back then." ”

At the mention of this, Luo Shan's eyes were heavy and slightly gloomy, "Although all these years have passed, as long as I recall the experience of going up the mountain alone, I feel afraid." That time Luo encountered an avalanche, lost the dry food sleeping bag, woke up in the morning, people were cold and hungry, it was really called every day, the earth was not spiritual, helpless, and the heart was like ashes. ”

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and continued: "Fortunately, Luo was lucky enough to dig out a dead deer in the snow and drink flesh and blood alive to survive. In the end, he climbed to the top of Kunlun, and he only had half a life left, and the whole person was scared stupid. ”

Lin Yi was shocked when he heard this, and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Master, I still have to go up, I finally got here, how can I give up halfway?"

Luo Shan looked at him worriedly, "I also know that it is extremely difficult to see the saint, although I have to come on a pilgrimage every one or two years, she only allows me to stay at the foot of the mountain. I wanted to seek the immortal law and restore my spiritual power, but I didn't expect her to be so resolute. ”

"Master......" Lin Yi's expression sneered, it turned out that Master Luo and the Holy Maiden still had some hidden feelings.

Seeing his expression, Luo Shan smiled dumbly and said, "Disciple, you want to go wrong, this is the rule of the Holy Maiden." Anyone who passes through the permission except her own people can only see her once, and after descending the mountain, they cannot go up again. ”

"Moreover, it was still looking at Brother Lei's face, so he reluctantly let me stay in Kunlun for three days, and the rest of the people ignored it, and if they dared to venture into the mountain, they would definitely die - even if the Tianzun Lord of the Heavenly Book Mansion was in person, she was invited back. ”

Lin Yi couldn't help but be speechless, and suddenly said, "Then don't I have to cherish this opportunity even more!"

"Aren't you afraid of death?" Luo Shan glared at him with raised eyebrows. Lei Ming waited quietly for them to communicate, Luo Caiwei turned back from its arms and persuaded in a low voice: "Brother Lin, don't go, it's so dangerous." ”

Lin Yi's expression was gloomy, and he slowly spoke: "Master, the kid has died on the Huai River as early as possible, as long as he can learn the skills, he will avenge his mother today, and he will wipe me out tomorrow." ”

"You......" Luo Shan sighed, "After so long, are you still clinging?"

"The Immortal Sect destroyed my Lin family, and the Northern Youjun brutalized my mother, no matter which one it is, it is an enmity that does not share the sky, and the kid will never dare to forget it. Lin Yi said solemnly, his fingers trembling with anger, as if he was trying his best to restrain his anger.

Luo Shan frowned, and reproached: "There are many masters in the Immortal Sect, and the power is like the sky, what can you do alone? If you want to seek revenge on them, it is no less than a fool's dream, stuff them between their teeth and be too thin, don't be reckless and send them to death!"

"Something...... Someone has to do it. Lin Yi smiled bitterly, but his gaze was extremely firm.

"Good boy, I know that there are tigers in the mountains and prefer tigers in the mountainsβ€”do you think I'm praising you?" Luo Shan's tone was slightly annoyed, and his fingers tapped his knees, a little impatient.

Lei Ming scratched his head and said in confusion: "There are indeed tigers on the mountain, but please rest assured Brother Luo Xian, because I don't eat people." ”

Luo Shan glanced at it angrily, "Brother Lei, it's not about you, it's just an analogy." ”

"Uh...... Then you continue to discuss, and if you decide to go up, you must prepare early. The saint told me that the kid will wake up within three days after taking the Yaochi Snow Lotus, and she will give you two days to think about it, so you have to hurry up. ”

"Got it, thank you Brother Lei for the message. Luo Shan nodded and said to Lin Yi: "There are still two days, you have to think clearly, don't be impulsive and bury your life in vain." ”

"I've already thought about going up the mountain, didn't the master also say that this is a great opportunity, and I have to go. Lin Yi immediately replied.

"Don't worry, Kunlun is so majestic, not less than a thousand feet high, and it was overturned by heavy snow, and mountaineering is like climbing to the sky!"

"Master, please forgive the apprentice's persistence. Lin Yi got up and bowed, burying his head still.

Luo Shan pondered for a long time and rubbed his forehead in distress, "When I went up the mountain, I was already in my twenties, and my body was not weak, but you are only ten years old, and your physique is much worse than mine. ”

"That can better reflect my sincerity!" Lin Yi hurriedly said.

Luo Shan was helpless, and reluctantly spoke: "Let's do this first, there are still two days to think about it." ”

Lei Ming and Luo Caiwei were playing and playing, and when they saw the opportunity, they interjected: "Brother Luo, are you guarding your beloved apprentice too tightly, this kind of thing should be made by himself." ”

Luo Shan fell into hesitation, and suddenly laughed after half a sound, and said loudly: "Brother Lei is right, I am confused, how can I persuade others to stop because I have fallen...... Lin'er, you can go if you want. ”

Lin Yi finally raised his head, red marks were pressed out of his head, and he said excitedly: "Master Xie cares, the apprentice will definitely succeed!"

Lei Ming stretched out his tiger arm and hugged Luo Caiwei aside: "Without further ado, I'll go back and tell the Holy Maiden, you guys should prepare early." ”

"There's Brother Laurel. ”

"Uncle Lei, let's wait a minute. Luo Caiwei cried out pitifully, as if she was reluctant to give up on the fluffy stove.

Lin Yi hurriedly said: "It's snowing outside, Uncle Lei might as well rest." ”

"Haha, excuse me, this little snowflake is not difficult for me. Thunder got up and opened the door, a cold wind poured into the house, and then closed the door and left.

"Lin'er, for the teacher to go down the mountain tomorrow, help you buy your bags, you and the girl will rest in the house. ”

"Thank you, Master!" Lin Yi was sincerely grateful, thought for a while and asked, "Master, who is that holy woman?"

Luo Shan glanced at him unexpectedly, and hesitated: "Haven't you heard of the name of the Great Demon of the Western Wilderness, the Holy Maiden Fengyue?"

"Great demon!" Lin Yi said in shock, "Isn't she human?"

"Of course not, otherwise how would she become a demon saintess. Luo Shan sat on the edge of the bed and patiently explained, "Do you know the Queen Mother of the West?"

"Yes. Lin Yi hurriedly nodded, and said truthfully what he had heard from the drama in the past: "The Queen Mother of the West is the head of the Heavenly Court Immortals, and she is a pair with the Jade Emperor. ”

"Poof!" Luo Shan couldn't help laughing, coughed for a while, and then said: "That's just made up by later generations, the Queen Mother of the West was originally an ancient god, the daughter of the emperor, the head of the gods, the ancestor of all demons, the power of Si Tian and the five remnants." When he came to Senluo, he lived in Kunlun Mountain, and summoned three spirits, one was the golden crow, which was the spirit of the sun, the second was the jade toad, which was the spirit of Taiyin, and the third was the nine-tailed fox, which represented reproduction. Her daughter, Xuannu, once taught people the art of war, so that the ancestors could overthrow the rule of the demon clan and stand in heaven and earth. ”

He said slowly: "Later, the Queen Mother of the West left Senluo Star and went to other worlds to create civilization. The golden black jade toad returned to the stars, the nine-tailed fox married the ancestor, and the holy woman Fengyue is the descendant of the divine fox, Kunlun Mountain has become her bedroom, and her status is above the leaders of the demon clan. ”

Lin Yi couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and said in shock: "The saint is so big, she is actually willing to meet me......

"That being saidβ€”" Luo Shan's voice turned sharply, and he said proudly, "When the holy girl was young, she also worshipped the human sword immortal Li Qinglian as her teacher. ”

"What kind of character is Li Qinglian?"

"It was a thousand years ago, the chief swordsman of the Xia Kingdom, and it is rumored that one person can withstand tens of thousands of elite soldiers. Now the Beidou Peak in the Eight Peaks of the Heavenly Book Mansion, there is a Qinglian Temple at the top of the peak, it is named after him, the temple is full of sword cultivation, the strength is superb, and there are countless ghost clans. And Li Jianxian's two personal disciples before his death, one of them was Fengyue, who once led the demon clan to help the rebel army overthrow Xia Jun's rule. ”

"Overthrow the Xia Dynasty......" Lin Yi opened his mouth wide, "That holy woman can't be a thousand years old?"

"For such big demons, thousands of years are sparse and ordinary. Luo Shan paused, and added: "The so-called blue is better than blue, Li Qinglian has passed away, and now Fengyue, cultivation is probably not below him." ”

There are many famous names, Lin Yi has never heard of them, he can only hear them in the clouds, and his eyes are fascinated: "Master, you have been instructed by her, no wonder you are so powerful." ”

Luo Shan shook his head lonely and laughed at himself: "How dare I be strong with this little skill, but I have learned one and a half tricks in Kunlun Dingpan Heng for three days." ”

Lin Yi smirked awkwardly, Luo Shan remembered Fang Cai's dissuasion, and turned to encouragement: "So, if you can go up the mountain to see her, it is a chance, if you get her advice, your martial arts will definitely improve by leaps and bounds." ”

After a while, he quipped: "Maybe when you go down the mountain, you won't be Lin Er's opponent as a teacher." ”

Lin Yi panicked: "Don't dare!"

"It's okay, why bother with me. Luo Shan waved his hand and lay back on the bed, "It's not early, go to sleep, I'll go down to buy something tomorrow." ”

Luo Caiwei took off her coat, climbed into bed, and slept in the innermost. Lin Yi rubbed his hands, expelled the cold, pulled the futon to cover, and the night passed, tossing and turning, excited and sleepless.

The next day, when Lin Yi woke up, Luo Caiwei was still muttering about grilled fish and roast meat in her dream, and Luo Shan was nowhere to be seen. Lin Yi got out of bed lightly, afraid of disturbing her, so she washed up briefly, raised the stove, heated dry food, and waited for her to eat.

The two of them had breakfast and chatted in the house. Luo Caiwei told him about the strange stories of the Western Wilderness, the monsters are good and bad, with different images, either tiger heads and human bodies, or human heads and snake tails, which are clearly beautiful faces, but they have a pair of animal ears. There are even some with bat wings, who like to sleep upside down, and may have a gentle heart hidden under the seemingly vicious appearance.

Lin Yi couldn't stop the secret joy, only to know that she had been to the Western Wilderness several times earlier. In the past two days, Luoshan finally returned with mountaineering supplies. Counting them down, there was a sleeping bag, a set of thick coats and leather boots, a rain umbrella, a map crutch, a flint and fire sickle, and a few pieces of food and water.

When the snow stopped in the coming day, Lin Yi changed into a fur coat, put on boots, tied a cloak, walked on crutches, carried other sundries, bid farewell to Luoshan, and climbed to the summit of Kunlun alone.

Stopping halfway, looking back at the Luoshan father and daughter next to the wooden house at the foot of the mountain, Luo Caiwei also shook her hand and shouted: "Brother Lin, take care, be careful in everything!"

Lin Yi suddenly felt sour in his heart, it was really that their father and daughter were too good to treat him, and he couldn't repay him, and roared loudly: "Master, little sister, you also take care, when I come back, the kid will not let you down!"

Turned around, secretly wiped away tears, and set off firmly.

Unexpectedly, this parting was actually a year.
