Volume 1 The first foray into the rivers and lakes Chapter 19
Xu Zhaonan first swung his sword and cut off a whole deer leg and threw it to Xiao Bai, blocking Xiao Bai's non-stop saliva, and then cut off another deer leg and handed it to the down-and-out old man.
"Seniors taste it first. Xu Zhaonan said respectfully.
The down-and-out old man stretched out his dark hands to take the deer's legs, put them in his mouth and tore a large piece of meat, and swallowed it in his stomach without a few bites, and praised loudly: "Not bad, delicious!"
Xu Zhaonan saw that he had finished eating, and smiled: "Senior, do you trust the junior so much? Aren't you afraid that the junior will poison the meat?"
"Hmm......"
The down-and-out old man tore another bite of venison and bit it into his mouth, and said vaguely: "Snatch the spirit, it tastes good." ”
Hearing this, Xu Zhaonan's face suddenly changed, and he slowly put his hand on the hilt of the Zangfeng sword on the side.
"Taiyi, that Tianzun...... Or let's make a bet......"
After finally eating the venison in his mouth, the down-and-out old Dao proposed: "Let's bet on whether you will pull out the broken sword first, or whether Poor Dao will unload your arm first." ”
After a pause, the down-and-out old Dao smiled contemptuously: "With the distance between you and me, if Poor Dao wants to harm you in any way, Zuo Yuan can't stop it here......"
"Hey, hey. ”
A drop of cold sweat slipped from Xu Zhaonan's sideburns, laughed dryly, and said respectfully: "The seniors are laughing, the younger generations' admiration for the seniors is like a surging river, but they dare not have the slightest disrespect." ”
"Hmmm......"
The down-and-out old man nodded, and said slowly: "What a feeling, every time you admire a person, you plan to poison him?"
Xu Zhaonan rubbed his hands and continued to smile dryly: "The senior is serious...... The juniors didn't dare to poison the seniors, but they just felt that this venison jerky was a bit boring to eat, so they ......"
The down-and-out old man glanced at him lightly, and then said, "So you want to add some condiments to it?"
As he spoke, the down-and-out old man had already eaten the meat on the deer legs, and was sticking out his tongue to slowly lick the oil stains on his hands, Xu Zhaonan looked at the pair of dark hands that seemed to have not been washed since birth, frowned slightly, and said in his heart, as far as you are still a monk, I have never seen a monk who can eat meat like you!
"Taiyi, that Tianzun...... It tastes good, and then cut a piece of poor road. ”
The down-and-out old man licked the oil stains on his hands, waved his hand again, and ordered Xu Zhaonan.
Xu Zhaonan stared at his waving black hand, and he didn't know if the saliva on it had been waved on his clothes, and he muttered in his heart, you said that you didn't eat enough, forget it, just tell me to cut it for you again, since you still want to eat, what kind of hand do you lick, it's disgusting.
Of course, in addition to silently venting his dissatisfaction in his heart, Xu Zhaonan naturally did not dare to disobey on the surface, took out Zang Feng and cut off a piece of the deer's forelimb, and handed it to the down-and-out old man with a smile on his face.
When drawing the sword, Xu Zhaonan glanced at the down-and-out old Dao with his residual eyes, and saw that he did not react, so he thought about whether to stab him with a sword, but after thinking about it repeatedly, he felt that the risk was too great, so he gave up.
After taking the venison, the down-and-out old man smelled the smell on it, and sighed: "It's gone, it's almost tasteless." ”
Xu Zhaonan laughed dryly twice, feeling that his face was about to stiffen with laughter, seeing that the down-and-out old man had no signs of anger, he cautiously asked: "How did the seniors know that the deer legs were poisonous before?
The down-and-out old man glanced at him and said with disdain: "I didn't know, but I knew it after eating, this bit of poison can't kill the poor Dao, why don't you eat the good venison." ”
Xu Zhaonan raised his eyebrows, a little speechless, he didn't expect that this ordinary person's death-to-death snatching was useless to him at all, and he was used as a condiment and eaten with venison.
The down-and-out old man said while eating: "You are not alone in this world who can use poison. ”
Xu Zhaonan hurriedly asked, "Could it be that the seniors are also masters of this way?"
"Fart!phew!"
The down-and-out old man spit out a bone that he accidentally bit into his mouth, and shouted: "These things from the side of the door are disdainful of learning!"
Xu Zhaonan pursed his lips and said in disbelief: "Why is that Snatching Soul Scattered useless to you? ”
"Alas......"
The down-and-out old man seemed to remember something, put down the venison in his hand, and sighed: "If you get used to eating, you won't be afraid." ”
Xu Zhaonan suddenly remembered that he had eaten too much to eat hundreds of poisons like himself, and remembered the painful days when he practiced poison back then, and suddenly said in awe: "The predecessor is really a master." ”
"Phew, bullshit master!" the down-and-out old man spit out another bone and asked Xu Zhaonan, "Is there any wine?"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Xu Zhaonan replied three times in a row, pretended to pat his head, and said apologetically: "Look at the memory of the juniors, how can you have meat without wine, the seniors will wait a minute, and the juniors will get it for you." ”
With that, he turned around and rummaged through the luggage beside him and picked up the wine bag.
"There is no need to add condiments to the wine, it is unpleasant. ”
The down-and-out old man said lightly in the back.
Xu Zhaonan's rummaging movements froze for a moment, and he smiled without looking back: "No, no, how dare the juniors." ”
As soon as the words fell, he took out the two wine bags he carried in the morning from his luggage, one of which was handed to the down-and-out old man, and then took out a sea bowl and poured it full, and put it in front of Xiaobai, and the rest was left for himself.
The down-and-out old man smiled faintly and said, "Your kid is good to this white wolf, no wonder I'm confident that others can't take it away." ”
Xu Zhaonan also smiled: "Xiaobai has followed me since he was a child, and for so many years, he has always eaten what I eat." ”
The down-and-out old man raised the wine bag, and poured the trickle of wine into his wide open mouth, like a bottomless pit, and drank two catties of wine in one gulp before stopping, and after a long hiccup, he sighed to Xu Zhaonan: "The meat is good, and the wine is even more beautiful!"
Xu Zhaonan opened his mouth, thinking that this down-and-out old man was joking before, but he didn't expect him to be serious, and said cautiously: "But Xiaobai has followed me since he was a child, and I'm afraid he doesn't want to follow his predecessors." ”
"Hmph, you white wolf, you can't feed it. If you are reluctant, you will say that you are reluctant, and it is not refreshing at all!"
The down-and-out old Dao snorted coldly, and said proudly: "Poor Dao has never accepted apprentices in his life, and today he has a fate with you, and he eats your wine and meat, and plans to pass on your mantle and send you to creation, what do you think?"
With that sanctimonious appearance, if he changed into clean clothes, Xu Zhaonan was afraid that he would believe it immediately.
But the appearance of the person in front of him is really flattering.
Xu Zhaonan rubbed his cheeks that were smiling stiffly, and said helplessly: "The wine and meat are not enough to worry about, the kindness of the seniors, and the younger generations understand it." But the younger generation has already had a teacher, and he doesn't dare to go to another family. ”
"Oh. ”
The down-and-out old man replied lightly, squinted at Xu Zhaonan and said, "Isn't your master dead, and if he is under my door, he will probably not crawl out of the grave to settle accounts with me." ”
Xu Zhaonan's eyes flashed, and he said coldly: "The seniors are cautious, and the younger teachers are still alive." ”
As he spoke, he slowly moved in the direction of Xiao Bai, and the "Deep Love" divine sword behind him was stirred by his internal force, and there was a burst of sword groans.
The down-and-out old man turned a deaf ear and sneered: "Bai Xifeng has been dead for more than ten years, and his body is rotten and clean, where is he still alive." ”
"Bell!"
The love was deep out of the sheath, and it was held in his hand by Xu Zhaonan, and the internal force was infused into it, emitting bursts of ghostly light, and for a while, the flames in the bonfire were a little weaker.
Xu Zhaonan held the sword in his hand, pointed at the down-and-out old man, and said coldly: "Who is the senior!"
When Xiaobai saw his master draw his sword, he immediately stopped his mouth movements, stood up, his hair moved without wind, and a pair of wolf eyes stared at the down-and-out old man.
"Hehehe. ”
The down-and-out old man smiled and said indifferently: "Since you don't want to be my apprentice, naturally you don't need to know my name." However, at your young age, you don't have much ability, but your temper is not small, like Bai Xifeng's apprentice. ”
Xu Zhaonan stepped forward with his sword and shouted, "You are not allowed to insult the family teacher!"
Xiaobai also took a step forward, and let out a long roar from his mouth, which was deafening.
"Sit down first. ”
The down-and-out old man pressed down his hand lightly, Xu Zhaonan instantly felt that he was sitting on the ground uncontrollably, and he was suddenly shocked, and when he turned his head, Xiaobai also seemed to be pressed by something, and he rolled over on the ground and couldn't move.
"Admit it?" asked the down-and-out old man amusedly.
Xu Zhaonan said stiffly: "What's the matter." ”
"Hmm......"
The down-and-out old man touched his beard and fell into thought, muttering: "It's still a little wrong, I've never heard that Bai Xifeng has accepted apprentices before, but if it's not his apprentice, how can the deep love be in his hands." ”
Xu Zhaonan heard his muttering, and suddenly realized that it was the divine sword that showed a flaw, and at that moment, he said quite shamefully: "I really haven't seen the master, it was the senior sister who took me as an apprentice instead of the master." ”
"No wonder, it makes sense. The down-and-out old man nodded, and continued to mutter: "It seems that the white girl is still alive, so why is Gu Sihai ......?"
The muttering behind him couldn't be heard clearly even with Xu Zhaonan's ears.
"That's it. ”
The down-and-out old man clapped his hands and said, "Since you don't want to worship me as a teacher, then forget it." But the poor way can't take your benefits in vain, and give you a hexagram, and you should be evened out. ”
After speaking, without waiting for Xu Zhaonan to refute, the down-and-out old man closed his eyes slightly and looked proud, stretched out his dark left hand, and his five fingers turned into a phantom.
I saw that the down-and-out old Taoist pinched the fingers in his hand, his fingers shook, and he still recited the words in his mouth: "Count the yin and yang hexagrams...... eight directions"
Just when Xu Zhaonan was waiting a little impatiently, the down-and-out old man suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were shining, and then he looked at him with a frown, and muttered: "Carelessness hurts people's lives, and the enemy can't find the enemy...... There is no calamity in vain, and the next hexagram ......"
Xu Zhaonan was a little shuddered by him, although the current appearance of the down-and-out old way was very similar to the fortune tellers who were abducted and deceived in Jiangyue City yesterday, but when he remembered all the miracles that happened after meeting him, he didn't dare to treat it carelessly.
Just as he was about to open his mouth to say something, he was preempted by the down-and-out old man: "You want to go to Mojuan City?"
Xu Zhaonan was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "How do you know?"
The down-and-out old man got the answer from his expression, frowned and continued to ask, "Do you have to go?"
Xu Zhaonan nodded, after all, he still didn't believe what the down-and-out old Taoist said, and the itinerary that had been planned a long time ago would naturally not be frightened away by a few words of nonsense, and said firmly: "You have to go." ”
The down-and-out old Taoist thought for a while and asked, "If there will be a bloody disaster on this trip, do you still have to go?"
"I have to go!"
Xu Zhaonan still gave the same answer, but his tone was accentuated.
The down-and-out old man saw that he didn't believe in himself, so he was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and shouted angrily: "You kid, you don't know how interesting, the poor road is the ability of the fingers, I don't know how many people in this world have poured all their wealth to beg the poor road to count a hexagram for him, but you don't appreciate it!"
Xu Zhaonan was told that he had broken his mind, raised his eyebrows, and said with a dry smile: "Appreciation, appreciation." ”
"Humph!"
The down-and-out old man closed his eyes and sighed: "That's it, life and death are fate, and the poor road will not stop you, just remember one thing, run to the southwest in case of disaster, if your legs and feet are fast enough, you may be able to escape, remember, remember." ”
Xu Zhaonan thought about it, Zigui County is in the northeast of Dongsheng Country, running in the southwest direction, isn't that the direction of Yaoshan? If this old way is really right, if there is an enemy chasing and killing, is he going to lead the enemy back to Yaoshan and ask Uncle Gu to stop the enemy? However, if the enemy is too strong and leads back to Yaoshan, won't it hurt the senior sisters and them?
The down-and-out old man can't know everything, so he naturally doesn't know what Xu Zhaonan is thinking, so he nodded quietly and said, "The junior has written it down." ”
"Hmm. ”
The down-and-out old Dao groaned, and said intentionally or unintentionally: "Your divine sword and Bai Xifeng's 'immortal' are a pair, the day the sword is completed, the poor Dao will observe from the sidelines, naturally it is recognized, and others are afraid that they have never had the opportunity to see it." Therefore, when you encounter a strong enemy, even if you use it to defend against the enemy, you don't have to be afraid of being seen through by others, perhaps...... It can increase the vitality of one percent. ”
When Xu Zhaonan heard him say this, he could be regarded as solving the doubts in his heart, and hesitated: "Are the seniors and my master and sister old acquaintances?"
"Hahahaha. ”
The down-and-out old Taoist laughed and raised his voice: "Taiyi, that Tianzun, the old knowledge of bullshit...... It's useless to talk too much, the poor road is full of wine and food, and it also pays off the favor...... There are still important things to do in the poor road, and it is ...... to go"
After speaking, he rose from the ground in front of Xu Zhaonan, flew into the woods, disappeared in the night, and disappeared.
