Chapter Ninety-Nine: Sanlijing Village
In the area of Yan'an in present-day northern Shaanxi, there is a village famous for the rivers and lakes. Say it's a village, it has only one house, a row of caves. Northern Shaanxi is located in the Loess Plateau area, because of the wind and sand, the formation of a unique form of cave residents. The cave is warm in winter and cool in summer, and is generally dug and built according to the slope. This village is three miles in circumference, and the periphery is surrounded by wooden rows. On the top of the wooden row, there is a big 'Jing' character engraved every few meters. Because of this uniqueness, the surrounding people call this place Sanlijing Village.
Sanlijing Village is a fast flat land, with a row of caves in the center of the village, built with earth and stones. There are only two masters and servants in the village, the master's name is Tang Mu, he is an indifferent and strange person, and his only hobby is wood carving. His daily life consisted of carving a human figure, a woman's head, out of a wooden block. This village has existed for twenty years, and he carved only the head of a woman in the wood carving for twenty years. The servant's name is Ah Sheng, he is in charge of Tang Mu's daily life and everything in the village, and he has done simple and complicated things for twenty years, but he has never complained.
In recent months, the village has suddenly become lively. The entire western martial arts decent people are rushing here. Kunlun, Emei, Tianshan •••••• most of the people came here one after another. No matter what sect they were, after they came here, they didn't dare to step into the scope of Sanlijing Village without permission. Just put a visit post at the gate of Sanlijing Village, and set up a greenhouse outside the village to live.
There are more and more martial arts people outside Sanlijing Village, but everyone seems to have a tacit understanding. No one set foot in the confines of Sanlijing Village, and no one made noise outside Sanlijing Village. Sanlijing Village is still as quiet as an empty valley, and only Ah Sheng comes to watch the visit post every day. But no one was allowed to enter Sanlijing Village.
On this day, in the third cave of Sanlijing Village, the slightly wooden Tang Mu cut off the last piece of residual wood from the wooden block in his hand. Then put down the carving knife in his hand and picked up the woodcut in his hand. Put it in the present, look at it for a long time.
It was the head of a woman who was nearly fifty years old, and it could be vaguely seen from the delicate lines that it was a beautiful woman of peerless beauty. There was a trace of resentment in the woman's eyes, and she was very reluctant. There was a smile on her face, and the woman's forehead had grown a lot of wrinkles, and the muscles on her face had become loose. But it doesn't affect the woman's beauty at all.
Tang Mu looked at it, and suddenly closed his eyes, tears flowing lightly from the corners of his eyes. There was a sad look on his face, and he was deeply immersed in the past.
After a long time, Tang Mu walked out of the third cave with the wooden block and walked to the sixth cave.
Inside the sixth cave, Ah Sheng is cleaning inside. Inside this cave is a long wooden platform. There are hundreds of wood carvings on the wooden platform, and the wood carvings are neatly arranged. Ah Sheng was wiping down the wood carvings one by one.
These wood carvings are all a person's head, the same expression, the same eyes. Just look at them one by one, but it's easy to read the traces of time. The changes of a girl who gradually grows and grows old are presented in the wood carvings.
Tang Mu placed the wood carving in his hand on the wooden platform.
Ah Sheng put down the work in his hand and said, "Childe, there are more and more people outside the village. I received a large stack of visit posts today, do you want to see it?"
Tang Mu shook his head and was about to reply. Suddenly, there was a gleam in his eyes, and he said to Ah Sheng: "After all, it's here, Ah Sheng, follow me." Get ready to welcome guests!"
Tang Mu walked out of the cave, and the two walked slowly towards the entrance of the village.
At this moment, outside Sanlijing Village, a large group of people suddenly came.
A group of people rode horses and galloped forward. The leader was dressed in black, and his whole body shot with infinite might. It was Liang Tongtian, the leader of the Soul Eater Sect. Liang Tongtian left the secret room and lived in Biyou Palace for a few days. After a little recuperation, the spirit will return to normal. Then he took the four elders of Junshan, Gao Shenghan and others to the west. Along the way, they recruited old departments and continued to recruit people, reviving the Soul Eater Cult. Ransack all the martial arts factions in the Western Righteous Path, and chase them all the way.
Behind these people, tens of thousands of congregants followed.
The people of all factions who lived in the tent in Sanlijing Village saw the people of the Soul Eater Demon Sect. For a while, they gathered at the entrance of the village.
Among them, a nun in plain clothes, an old man with a sword, and a bearded man stood in front of everyone. The nun in plain clothes is Zhenyao, the head of Emei, the old man with the sword is Qiu Gan, the head of Kunlun, and the bearded strong man is the head of Tianshan Mountain, Wang Yuxian. At this moment, the various factions of the righteous path are headed by these three people.
The various factions of the Righteous Path have been hunted down and killed by the Soul Eater Demon Dao repeatedly in the past few months, and they are facing tens of thousands of Soul Eaters at this moment. For a time, there was a lot of commotion in the crowd.
Seeing the situation, Zhen Yao turned his head and sent his voice out with his true qi: "Fellow Daoists, don't panic. Just take the enemy seriously. There is Tang Mu's predecessor here to contain the Soul Eater Old Demon, and the other Demon Daoists are all a rabble. There's no need to be afraid. ”
"Haha! Zhenyao old nun, you speak easily. It's been a long time since I've been close to a woman. Why don't you let me, a rabble, get close to you? As soon as Zhenyao's words fell, a voice came clearly. Immediately afterwards, a bald eagle-faced old man appeared in the air. This man came quickly, and everyone could only see a gust of wind blowing. I saw the old man grabbing Zhenyao with a pair of paws.
"Look for death!" Zhen Yao shouted, his palms in a semicircle. In the air, he faced the old man's claws.
The two palmed each other, sending out strong fluctuations, shaking the people around them to retreat again and again.
The old man jumped backwards in the air, spun around in the air, and then froze. looked at Zhen Yao and smiled lewdly.
Under the vigorous force, Zhenyao took a few steps back and stabilized his body. I felt my palms tingle, and when I looked closely, I could see that my palms were black. Immediately, he was furious in his heart, and said: "Fire Buddha Demon, you actually poisoned your palm! You •••••" After speaking, he hurriedly took out the medicine bottle from his bosom and sprinkled some powder on it. But after the powder reached the palm, a burst of black smoke came out. The palms of one hand suddenly turned red.
The Fire Buddha Demon standing in the distance laughed: "Zhenyao Old Nun, this is my gift to you. The scorching palm of the Protestant sect, your Emei's healing elixir Yang Xuedan will only add fuel to the fire on it. This is the first gift from my Fire Buddha Demon to you!haha, haha!"
Just as the Fire Buddha Demon was laughing happily, suddenly a block of mud was scattered from behind the Fire Buddha Demon. Blazing fast speed, under the cover of the sky.
Under the pride of the Fire Buddha Demon, although he heard the sound of breaking the air, his attention was all in front for a while, and he didn't notice the situation behind him at all.
In the blink of an eye, the mud fell, smashing directly on top of the Fire Buddha Demon's head. For a while, the mud was splashed everywhere, and the fire Buddha demon gradually came out with a flowery face.
A young scholar suddenly appeared and said to the Buddha Demon on Fire: "Xiao Ke also sent you a big gift, which was prepared temporarily." You're going to have a good laugh!"
The young man turned around, it was Xiao Ling.
