Kunlun Mountain is one of the Taoist sacred mountains, the legend is the root of the ancient Buzhou Mountain, the foundation of the heavenly pillar, the three provinces of Qinghai, Sichuan, Beibaili (Xinjiang) and the Wusi-Tibet region, it is the first sacred mountain in China, the ancestor of ten thousand mountains.

There are countless rare and exotic grasses on the mountain, there are countless fierce birds and beasts, many herdsmen and people who live under the mountain rely on digging herbs and hunting on the mountain for a living, and the terrain in the west of Kunlun Mountain is high, and the population is gradually sparse, and the easternmost branch of Kongtong Mountain is regarded as a village and town all over.

There is a mountain peak in Kunlun Mountain, which stretches for hundreds of miles to the northwest of Kongtong Mountain, which is shaped like a white cow, named Bainiu Mountain, there is a fruit tree and herb in the mountain, and the valley full of flowers is called Sansheng Ao.

This is the mountain gate station of the Kunlun faction, the first-class feng shui treasure land of Kunlun Mountain, the disciples of the Kunlun faction are all happy today, and the buildings in the door such as the Three Holy Church and the Tieqin Ju are also lit up, pasted with the word "big joy", it turned out that the big day of Kunlun head He Taichong marrying the second concubine is coming.

He Taichong, the head of the Kunlun faction, was a grandmaster of the Weizhen Jianghu faction because of the battle between his master Bai Luzi and a master in the Ming Sect, and he did not have time to leave his last words. The disciples competed for the position of the head of the family, and they were not at the same time, He Taichong and his senior sister Ban Shuxian joined forces, and their power increased greatly, so they suppressed the other senior brothers, and finally He Taichong took over as the head. He was grateful for his kindness, so he married this senior sister. In the early years, the husband and wife had a strong relationship, and in the last few years, the two were old, Ban Shuxian was already two years older than He Taichong, and He Taichong practiced Taoist exercises, but it seemed that Ban Shuxian was more than ten years older than He Taichong, and He Taichong began to marry a concubine under the pretext that he had no heirs.

The year before last, I married a room, but I didn't think that I recently found a young woman, with outstanding appearance, so I also want to marry back, many disciples of the Kunlun faction thought that the master took a concubine as a disciple and naturally could not help but express it, so there were good disciples, and they went to buy gifts in groups.

A young Taoist with a one-foot black beard hanging from his chest came out of the Sansheng Pass with three junior disciples, and said as he walked: "We are not like a few junior brothers, we have an industry at home, or we have gained a lot of benefits from walking outside, we are all Taoists who practice in the door, where is there a lot of money? If all of them send congratulatory gifts to the master, it will be really ugly for us to be empty-handed, but we can't afford to buy decent things, so for the brother, I will take you to the depths of Kunlun to dig up some precious herbs, so that the master and the second aunt can be happy." ”

A white-faced and bearded young Taoist asked: "Although there are many treasures in our Kunlun Mountain, it is also difficult to find the cherished medicinal materials, and it will take a long time to find them. ”

The long-bearded Taoist smiled and said: "You don't know, for my brother, I was a boy in our Kunlun faction twenty years ago, at that time I followed Uncle Liuyunzi into the mountains to collect medicines, we stayed in the mountains for three or four months, and also got a lot of medicinal materials with vintages, and there were still many unfinished herbs at that time, I thought that more than 20 years have passed and should be ripe, so we happened to take them together and dedicate them to the master." ”

The four of them have always had a very good relationship with the senior brothers in the door, and they were all overjoyed when they heard this, and nodded with a blank face: "I see, then I will listen to the senior brother." ”

Everyone left the Three Holy Passes and went deeper, and finally arrived at a steep place in three days, and the long-bearded Taoist pointed to the front and said: "Between the two mountains is a forest, there is Huangjing Gastrodia in the forest, which was just formed back then, and now it is estimated that there are twenty-five or six years of medicinal power, which is quite a good medicinal material, even if it is sold to a hundred and twenty-one plants, let's hurry up, so as not to go back in time!"

After the three junior disciples agreed, the four of them quickened their pace and entered the mountain, and then searched for it in the deep mountains and old forests, and after staying for half an hour, a young Taoist priest suddenly said: "Senior brother, there is a yellow essence here!"

The three of them hurried over, and saw the waist-high green vegetation under the two pine trees, the leaves grew up in pairs of pairs, and there were more than a dozen strings of purple-black small fruits hanging in the middle. ”

After the long-bearded Taoist dug out a fist-sized yellow essence plant, he carefully put it into the small medicine basket behind him, and the white-faced Taoist priest smiled: "With Senior Brother Guangming with us, we may be able to return with a full load today." ”

Guangmingzi touched his beard and said with a smile: "I still remember that there are more medicinal herbs in the back place, let's go in and find it again." ”

After more than an hour, Guangming Zi cut off a tree vine with a sword, pointed to the empty land that should have medicinal herbs in his impression, and scolded: "Why are they all gone? Could it be that someone picked them up in advance?"

The white-faced Taoist priest looked down and saw that there were indeed traces of digging up and backfilling the surface of the land, so he snorted coldly: "Senior brother guessed well, it is clear that someone is walking in front of us, and I look at the traces that are what they have looked like in the past two days." ”

Guangming Zi said: "When did our Kunlun sect let outsiders in?

The white-faced Taoist pointed to the front and said, "That person should not go far, let's go faster and catch up." ”

The four of them immediately chased after the traces with swords in their hands, and sure enough, they chased for more than thirty miles with all their might, and then looked at the traces of soil turning, which were quite new, and they were obviously nearby.

The four of them looked for a while, and the white-faced Taoist had the best eyes, and in the early morning he saw a man in a straw hat and rag robe in a forest not far away, resting, still holding a water bag in his hand and taking a sip from time to time.

"Senior brother! ”

Guangmingzi turned his head to look, and walked over with three junior disciples, and walked in, and sure enough, he saw a man with a beard on his lips and jaw sitting under a tree to enjoy the shade, with a straw basket on one side, and a hoe stained with soil at his feet, and the grass basket was covered with leaves.

"Where are you from?" asked the white-faced Taoist.

The old farmer-like man who picked medicine raised the brim of his straw hat when he heard this, and he didn't get up, and said: "It turned out to be the four Taoist chiefs, and the villain is a herdsman under the mountain, and everyone calls me Lao Hada, who lives by herding sheep and collecting medicine.

The white-faced Taoist said sharply: "This is the place of my Kunlun sect, and these medicinal materials you picked were also planted by my sect master more than 20 years ago, you have committed a great sin by trespassing on the forbidden land of my sect and stealing medicinal herbs, do you know?"

The old farmer was stunned when he heard this, and said in fear: "The villain doesn't know, and I ask the four Taoist masters to forgive their sins!"

The four of them intimidated the old farmer who picked medicine for a long time, and seeing that he was quite scared, Guangmingzi smiled slightly, and said with a whisker: "Don't be afraid, brother!

The old farmer was trembling when he heard this, glanced at the sharp sword in the hands of the four people, and said with a wry smile: "Since the four Dao Masters are so generous, the villain is willing to hand over all the herbs." ”

The two juniors of Guangming picked up the medicine basket and carried it on their backs with joy on their faces, and then the four of them left the woods with a smile and walked in the direction of the mountain gate.

After they disappeared, the old farmer sighed and said, "Sell charcoal, cut down and burn charcoal in the southern mountains." His face was full of dust and smoke, and his temples were pale and his fingers were black. What is the business of selling charcoal to make money? The poor shirt is single, and the heart is worried and wishes for the cold. At night, a foot of snow outside the city came, and Xiao drove a charcoal cart to roll the ice ruts. The cattle are trapped and the people are hungry, and they are resting in the mud outside the south gate of the city. Who are the two horsemen here? The yellow-clothed messenger in white shirt ......"

After reading a poem for a long time, the old farmer took off the straw hat on his head, and saw that his eyebrows turned out to be a young man with clear eyebrows and a chic temperament, but his beard was messy to look older, and it was clear that he was the head of Huashan who came to Kunlun Mountain to find the secret realm of Kunlun.
