Volume 1 Dragon Knife Chapter 8 In the Ancient Forest
"Let's see."
Jiang Meng and Li Jingyun followed those big horses all the way around the crisp gang to climb the mountain, the main peak of Qingming Mountain is in the mountains, in front of it is a black dwarf tree, almost more than one person high, all over the mountain, called the Black Pine Station, there is a big station on the way, for the porters, passers-by, and people who send timber to Qingming Mountain to rest.
When the two of them got to the station, they looked up at the plaques on both sides of the mountain road, Jiang Meng said softly: "Black Pine Station", looking around, they found that there were small black trees all over the mountains, and after walking a short distance, a row of wine shops and inns came into view.
There are so many people in this Black Pine Station, and the front of the large and small wine shops and inns on both sides are crowded with people, eating, and chatting.
Li Jingyun said: "Mengmeng, let's find a place to sit down and rest."
Jiang Meng grabbed the corner of his clothes and whispered: "There are a lot of strange people here, be careful."
Li Jingyun was puzzled, Jiang Meng pointed to those who sat down: "The white-clothed ones are all disciples of the Diancang faction, the monks over there are probably Shaolin Temple or Wutai Mountain, or there may be on both sides, as well as Kongtong, Beggar Gang, Xiaoyao, Wudang and other disciples of various major sects, one point forward in groups, may be good men on the rivers and lakes, I'm afraid that something will happen to Qianji Pavilion, my master is the attendant of the Crescent Moon Sect, and your father-in-law is also from the Crescent Moon Sect, if we accidentally know our identity, it will not be good."
Li Jingyun scratched his head and said, "Then what should I do?"
Jiang Meng whispered: "Don't fight with others, I don't know if anyone knows your magic knife moves, if someone does, it's terrible."
Jiang Meng muttered, and suddenly felt a person walking behind him, and when he looked back, he saw that person was dressed in white and had a white fan, and he was very surprised to see the two of them.
The three of them stared at each other and stayed in place.
It turned out that the person was none other than the iron fan Guanyin Ye Liuli who met in Phoenix Town that day. But seeing that he was alone, he didn't see any disciples and disciples around him.
Jiang Meng and Li Jingyun didn't open their mouths yet, but Ye Liuli was surprised and said, "Heh, it turned out to be the two, I didn't want to say goodbye to Phoenix Town, but I met here."
Jiang Meng rolled his eyes and ignored him, Li Jingyun was also surprised, and arched his hand at him, but he didn't know what to say.
Jiang Meng turned his head, pulled his sleeve and said, "Let's go."
Ye Liuli shook her head slightly, watched the two walk away, sat alone next to a wine shop, and said loudly: "Little Er, serve the wine."
It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that the night bat in Tsing Yi and the shopkeeper of the Phoenix Inn Jiang Yunshan died in the Central Plains, and the Crescent Sect led the crowd to the Central Plains Martial Arts to take revenge.
The shopkeeper was making calculations, and suddenly felt a black shadow flickering in front of him, raised his head, and saw two seventeen or eighteen-year-old boys and girls coming in from the door, and immediately said casually: "Guest officer, do you want to stay in the hotel?"
But when she saw that the girl was saying something to the young man next to her, she approached and asked, "Shopkeeper, let me ask you, why are there so many people here?"
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "I heard that the Crescent Moon Sect is coming to the Central Plains to avenge some bats, and I also heard from the people who live here, and they all came to help the Thousand Machine Pavilion."
Jiang Meng remained silent, took out a few taels of silver and said: "Arrange two guest rooms, we will rest here for three days", the first sentence was said to the shopkeeper, but the latter sentence was said to Li Jingyun.
The shopkeeper called Xiao Er to open a room for the two, and Li Jingyun let out a long breath while lying on the bed in his room. It's not easy to climb from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain, and I don't know how far I have to go. It's better to take a break.
Thinking so, there was a knock at the door.
got up and opened the door, it was Jiang Meng, Jiang Meng walked in, sat on a wooden chair on the side, held his chin, and didn't know what he was thinking.
Suddenly, he said: "There are many disciples of various sects here, I'm afraid it's not as simple as guarding against the Demon Sect."
Li Jingyun didn't understand anything, only said "oh".
Jiang Meng thought about it carefully, thinking back to what happened along the way, the biggest thing was the dragon knife.
He looked at Li Jingyun with a side face, turned his head for a while, and said to himself: "The magic knife's kung fu must not be allowed to be used, and the Qianji Pavilion can be done another day, and the top priority is to see what the location marked on the mountain and river map is."
Thinking like this, he said to Li Jingyun: "Jingyun, there are too many eyes here, let's not go to the mountains, just go to the places marked on the map and see what there is."
Li Jingyun said: "Listen to you."
Jiang Meng smiled at him, very good-looking.
"Dangdangdang", someone knocked on the door, Jiang Meng got up and opened the door, but before he could see the person's appearance, he only heard: "Dare to ask Your Excellency if you can ......."
Before he finished speaking, his eyes widened and stared.
It's Ye Liuli again.
Jiang Meng said angrily: "Why are you ghostly, are you following us?"
Ye Liuli's pupils widened, and she said helplessly: "My room over there is separated by a cliff, it is too secluded, I want to come over and ask if I can change the room with the guests who live here, but it turns out that it is you again, what can I do."
"Don't change", Jiang Meng said, and slapped the door shut.
Ye Liuli was bored, turned around and went to the next room, knocked on the door twice, and saw no one come out, and when she was glad that there was no one here, she poked her head out of the next room and said, "That one is also ours", and then "banged" and slapped the door shut.
Now Ye Liuli is angry, these two people haven't seen each other a few times, the little girl is fighting with herself everywhere, and she is a big disciple of the free school, but she was screamed by a little girl, she can't bear it!
walked to the door and whispered, "Girl, I think there should be a little misunderstanding between us."
"No, get out".
Ye Liuli was stunned for a long time, let out a long breath, and whispered: "Don't be angry, don't be angry." Turning his head and opening the door behind him, where is there any interest in changing rooms.
Jiang Meng was actually worried, but she pinched Ye Liuli's approachable and gentle temperament, lest he and the two of them get too close to find something, and they couldn't hear the movement outside the door for a long time, so they let out a sigh of relief.
Li Jingyun said: "I don't think he looks like a bad person."
Jiang Meng raised his eyebrows and said, "Can the bad guy still be written on his face for you to see?"
Li Jingyun argued: "Didn't you say that the Buddha sees people as Buddhas, and ghosts see people as ghosts?"
Jiang Meng said: "Are we two good people? We are disciples of the Crescent Moon Sect, and of course the bad people look at him as bad people."
When Li Jingyun heard this, he said in his heart: I haven't done anything bad, right? Suddenly I thought that I had killed someone on the island a few days ago, and although I didn't kill it myself, I couldn't get rid of it after all, so I was speechless for a while, and I didn't say anything with my side face facing the wall.
After getting along for such a long time, I haven't learned anything else, and not arguing with her when a woman is angry is the biggest truth in heaven and earth.
Jiang Meng has been keeping in mind what the master said to herself when he died, the master always said that she acted flamboyantly, and she deliberately changed these problems along the way, but she didn't want to, someone would always target her. Thinking of Ye Liuli, I felt an inexplicable nest fire in my heart.
Rested in the inn for three days, went out on this day, to go to the place marked on the map of mountains and rivers to check it, and went out and met Ye Liuli, who also wanted to go up the mountain.
Ye Liuli had already forgotten all the unpleasantness of the previous days, and said casually: "Are you two going up the mountain? Why don't you go together?"
Li Jingyun was about to say that we should go down the mountain, a figure flashed on his face, Jiang Meng pulled him away, and half of the salute was not finished.
Ye Liuli suddenly became curious about these two people. After thinking about it, he secretly said, "I want to see why you go." He was nosy by nature, and at this moment, he remembered that these two people had encountered him, and he suddenly became suspicious.
The three of them went up the mountain road one after the other, and after walking a short distance, they saw the two people in front of them go down from a side path and stop under a tree to rest.
Jiang Meng picked up the map of mountains and rivers and carefully looked at the places marked on the book, and said: "We should be here now, if we go there, it will take a day and a night, the mountain road is difficult to walk, I don't know how far it is."
"Anyway, we don't have anything else to do, we will always get there if we walk slowly, the scenery here is excellent, if I make money in the dart game in the future, I will build a small house here, and the rest of my life will be fine."
Jiang Meng smiled slightly when she heard this.
After a short rest, the two continued to walk.
Ye Liuli followed lightly, he was a master of the Lotus Flower Realm, how could he let these two people find out. As I walked all the way, I gradually reached the depths of the mountains.
The trees grew taller and walked for another while, almost obscuring the sky, and from time to time the strange sounds of wild beasts could be heard from the forest.
Ye Liuli's expression at this moment was not as relaxed as before, and she felt more and more that the two in front of her had an ulterior secret. Secretly speculated along the way, and said in my heart: Here the mountains are steep and lofty, and there is almost no way to go, so you can only climb along the rock wall and trees, could it be that these two people are tomb robbers?
Thinking like this, looking up again, the place where the two of them were resting before was gone, and suddenly their hearts jumped, did they find themselves?
But I heard a voice coming from the front, and I let out a dark breath.
Jiang Meng looked at the bare rock wall in front of him and said, "It's too bad, we're on a dead end."
Li Jingyun didn't know what to do, scratched his head, looked up and said, "Can we climb to the top of the mountain along here?"
Jiang Meng looked up, the road to the mountain was very difficult, but it could only be like this, and said, "Now it can only be like this."
The two of them slowly grabbed the branch and climbed up the mountain. Late at night, before reaching the top of the mountain, I found a flat place nearby to rest.
Ye Liuli got up lightly, landed on the big tree above the two of them, found a branch to lie down, and waited to see when the two of them left.
Suddenly, a huge roar came from the forest, and suddenly the sleepiness turned into a cold sweat, and secretly said that it was not good, there were fierce beasts here.
The two men below were also startled, lying motionless on the ground, only to hear the sound of the beast passing through it. The voice was getting closer, apparently coming towards itself.
The two of them lay on a depression in the ground, holding their breath, only two eyes peeking out of the grass and trees, observing the movement around them. After a long time, I saw a huge beast figure from the place where the voice came.
It's too dark to see.
The two of them under the tree were nervously motionless, and the man on the tree quietly withdrew a handful of leaves from the tree in his hand.
For a long time, I couldn't hear the movement ahead.
Jiang Meng whispered, "Are you leaving?"
Before the words fell, a huge roar came from behind them, and the two turned around in panic, but they saw a fierce beast falling from the sky, and it was rushing towards the place where the two of them were!
