The chief had already burst into tears, and said respectfully: "Thank you Engong for helping the Shasi brothers to bury them, what Engong did today, we Circa tribe dare not forget." Please come and rest in our tribe. Let's do our best landlord friendship. "The villagers automatically moved out of the way. Tan Shaobai is indeed a little hungry, he has been sleeping in the open these days, and he also wants to find a place to rest. Turning his head to look at Hongji, he walked towards the tribe surrounded by the villagers.

The tribes in the Western Regions are already hospitable, not to mention that Tan Shaobai is their great benefactor, and every family brings their best things to entertain Tan Shaobai and the others, cooking sheep and slaughtering cattle for a while, and they are very busy.

What surprised Tan Shaobai was that as soon as he ate at night, Hongzhi couldn't wait to tear a leg of mutton and chew it, looking at his greasy appearance, where did he still look like a monk.

"Hey, I said Xiaozhi, aren't all of you Buddhist cultivators vegetarian?" Tan Shaobai asked suspiciously.

Hongji chewed the fragrant mutton, looked satisfied, and said, "We Zen Buddhism are not taboo about these. Master his old man likes wine and meat the most, when I follow him to practice, every once in a while, he will go out of the mountain to purchase, he often said, wine and meat through the intestines, the Buddha sits in the heart, the Buddha does not have to be too limited to the form, as long as the Buddha sincerely believes, eat some wine and meat is not indispensable. Wow, big brother, this mutton tastes so good, fragrant and tender, but it is much more delicious than the meat that the master brought back. You eat it too!" he said, and immediately poured a large cup of mare's milk wine.

Tan Shaobai looked at him dumbfounded, and said with a wry smile: "It turns out that you are still a wine and meat monk." I like it, though. I hate the life of restraint the most. Eat, eat more. ”

Seeing Tan Shaobai and the two eating and drinking, the chief of the Circa tribe suddenly smiled, and toasted to Tan Shaobai and the two again and again, Tan Shaobai had a lot of raw wine during the day, and the mare's milk wine had little stamina, and he still didn't have a trace of drunkenness after drinking dozens of glasses, while eating, he asked the chief: "Do you know that there is a Qingyun Mountain in our Western Regions?"

The chief paused for a moment and said, "It seems that there is." Engong, where are you going? Why don't you stay with us for a few more days, although we are not very rich here, but you are guaranteed to eat fresh beef and mutton every day. For the young man in front of him, he has a good impression from the bottom of his heart. And from a selfish point of view, if Tan Shaobai can stay here for a long time, it will only be good for the tribe.

Tan Shaobai shook his head and said, "I still have to go back quickly." That's my home!Chief, think about it, if you can tell me the general direction of Qingyun Mountain. ”

The chief sighed, he also knew that he couldn't stay, and said, "Engong, I won't tell you, there is a treasure in our clan, and with it, you will definitely be able to find Qingyun Mountain." Wait a minute, I'll come when I go. With that, he turned and walked out of the tent, and after a moment of work, he took a leather scroll and turned around.

He handed over the leather scroll with both hands and said, "Engong, this is the ancestral treasure of my clan, so I will give it to you." Tan Shaobai was stunned, thinking, could it be that the treasure map is not successful? If it really is, he will be developed. Thinking of this, I hurriedly took it into my hand. The chief explained, "This is a map of the entire Western Regions, which the ancestors got by accident. It's just that there was no name on it, and the ancestors of our Circa tribe have marked some known place names with continuous exploration, and I looked at it just now, and there is no Qingyun Mountain you said. But there are a lot of mountains and rivers on this map, so if you're familiar with the terrain, you'll probably be able to find the exact location. That's all I can help you with. ”

Although Tan Shaobai was a little disappointed in his heart, he also knew that this was what he needed most now, and while thanking him, he opened the leather scroll. It is a map made of sheepskin, with great craftsmanship, and although it is clearly very old, it is not damaged in the slightest. The map depicts the topography of various mountains and rivers, and some of them are indeed marked, so Hongji leaned over curiously, looked at the map and said, "This is really a treasure, I don't know how much experience it takes to draw it! ”

Tan Shaobai glanced at him and said, "How can there be so many immortals, even if they are our cultivators, as long as we make up our minds, we can draw them in a long time." Thank you, Chief, but this map is so precious that you can just give us a copy of it. ”

The chief shook his head and said, "If it weren't for the two benefactors, I'm afraid our Circa tribe would not exist. A few copies of the facsimile we have kept for ourselves are sufficient. You must take this original treasure, or our people will blame me. When it comes to friends, we Circa tribes have never been stingy. ”

Tan Shaobai nodded and said, "Then I'm welcome, thank you, chief." ”

That night, under the urging of alcohol, Tan Shaobai and Hongzhi went to bed early. Early in the morning, before dawn, Hongzhi was pulled up from the bed by Tan Shaobai.

Rubbing his hazy eyes and glancing out the window, Hongji said with some dissatisfaction: "Big brother, it's not dawn yet, what are you pulling me for, let me sleep for a while." ”

Tan Shaobai knocked on Hongzhi's bald head and said, "What are you sleeping, hurry up and pull." The people of this tribe are too welcoming, and if we go during the day, I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble. ”

"Oh" Hongzhi got up helplessly, stretched his waist, put his robe on his body, Tan Shaobai urged the mana to inject into the Qiankun Ring, took out a few things from it, and then grabbed the map on the table, and Hongzhi quietly left the tribe. While walking, Tan Shaobai asked Hongzhi, "Can you fly?"

Hongji nodded and said, "Of course you can?" But big brother, don't you think it will be very beneficial for us to walk like this? I once saw in a book left by my master that it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read ten thousand books. Since it is a road, it is natural to use it. By the way, big brother, what did you leave in the tribe, like a few pieces of paper? ”

Tan Shaobai smiled and said, "You don't understand this." What I left behind was a silver ticket, which was 10,000 taels of silver ticket, and it could be exchanged for many things. Yesterday we ate so much and took other people's maps, so we have to give something in return. That village was poor enough. In fact, Tan Shaobai doesn't have such a good heart, his style has always been to harm others and benefit himself, but because the tribe has many similar things to the village he grew up in, and he was moved by the behavior of the sauce, so he did it. What Tan Shaobai didn't know was that as early as last night, Hongzhi had already imposed a ban on the entire village, and even if there was an invasion of an evil object of the level of a ghoul, it would definitely be in vain.

Hongzhi looked at Tan Shaobai with admiration and said, "Big brother, you are so thoughtful, I didn't expect it! ”

Tan Shaobai said proudly: "Of course, I am the smartest person in the world." Before I woke you up in the morning, I had already found the general location of Qingyun Mountain. This is also the first time I have gone out of the mountain, and it is really not easy to find it!" As he spoke, he spread out the map, pointed to a place below and said, "This is our current location, you look up, on the top of the map, this place replaced by the cloud and mist symbol, it should be our Qingyun Mountain Range, after all, it is impossible for outsiders to enter there except for the people of our sect." I can't say that it's definitely right, but it's not far from ten. ”

Hongzhi said happily: "That's good, let's hurry back to your Qingyun Sect." Even the eldest brother is so powerful, so isn't your teacher a fairy? ”

Tan Shaobai said as a matter of course: "That is, we are a fairyland on earth, and when you arrive, you will understand." By the way, what kind of person is your master, and how did he pass away?"

Hongzhi said gloomily: "The master is very good to me, I can't remember the things I did when I was a child, I seemed to have no parents at that time, and I was taken away by the master when I was wandering on the street." About 100 years ago, the master suddenly told me that he had reached his limit and was sitting in the mountains. He walked peacefully. When he was dying, he told me that he never had the courage to reach the final state of the Great Perfection, that his mind was not firm enough, and that he was not suitable for further cultivation, and that he could only choose to sit on the stone to preserve his Buddha thoughts, and that perhaps after thousands of years, when his Buddha thoughts solidified, he would be able to come back to life. The master said that I was a genius in cultivating Buddhism, and asked me to go out of the mountain after a hundred years of retreat, and then I passed away. I'm really sad, the master is my only relative, and when he dies, I become a person. However, the Buddha treated me really well, and I met you yesterday, and I will have to rely on it in the future, big brother, thank you for letting me follow me. ”

Tan Shaobai's heart trembled slightly, he knew that he just wanted to use Hongzhi, and he didn't want to help him at all, a trace of indescribable depression suddenly rose in his heart, he turned around sharply and said, "Let's go." After speaking, he urged the mana and quickly walked away into the distance. Hongzhi looked at Tan Shaobai's back, sighed lightly, and said, "Big brother, following you may be my most important training trip." The yellow Buddha light lit up, and he didn't see him making a gesture, he had already chased behind Tan Shaobai, and he just floated and followed Tan Shaobai forward.

With a clear direction, it was much easier to move forward, and according to the map, after a day's work, they had already walked a tenth of the way to the Lianyun Mountain Range.

Hongzhi stopped with a sad face and said, "Big brother, this poor and remote country doesn't even have a shelter from the wind, what are we going to eat at night! ”

Tan Shaobai said with a smile: "You are like this, where do you look like a person who cultivates Buddhism, I see that you have not broken off the six desires of the layman." Eating, drinking, and sleeping are the same. Don't you know what the six roots of purity are? If I let you eat and drink all day now and cause your cultivation to stagnate in the future, don't blame me. ”

After following Tan Shaobai for a day, Hongzhi seemed to be infected by him, and said with a smile: "When I was cultivating, the six roots were pure, and it was nothing to be free, so that my mind could be more focused......!

Tan Shaobai said angrily: "Okay, don't be intoxicated, let's rest here today." I'm already a little tired after a day of running. As he spoke, he sat down on the ground.

Hongji blinked his eyes and said, "Big brother, isn't it?" You should also find a place like a small forest or a hillside. It's cold at night on the plateau. Look at my fair skin, can you bear to let me freeze to death?" Tan Shaobai snorted disdainfully, just lay flat on the ground, and said: "Come less, do you think I don't know that you have already reached the level of cold and heat? Even if you have no place to live and don't eat or drink all the time, it won't have any effect on you." ”

Hongzhi sat aside dissatisfied, and said, "Even if my Buddha power can reach the level you said, then I am willing to eat and sleep well! After saying that, a person who was humming was there lucky, and the child's heart and surname were undoubtedly revealed.

Tan Shaobai really didn't dare to offend the bodyguard he had deceived now, so he turned over and sat up, leaned over to Hongzhi's side, and said, "What's the matter, you're angry?"

Hongzhi turned his head and ignored him, Tan Shaobai smiled, grabbed the void in his right hand, and suddenly a fat chicken leg appeared in his hand, took a bite hard, and said vaguely: "Hey, this chicken leg is really delicious! It's a pity that some people are full of anger and don't need to eat it." As he spoke, he stuffed the chicken thighs into his stomach in two bites. All this was in Hongzhi's eyes, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, with his cultivation, he didn't see where Tan Shaobai's chicken leg came from, judging from the fragrance of the chicken leg, it was definitely not simulated with mana, but a genuine delicacy. Swallowing and spitting, Hongji tentatively said, "Big brother, do you still have chicken legs?" Can you give me one for my younger brother? I'm so hungry!"
