Chapter 53: The Cave House
"Old Chen. Ye Liang called the old man respectfully, "These people have already chosen their addresses, and they also asked Elder Chen to register and distribute formation flags to them." ”
"Hmm. Old Chen opened his eyes and looked at Ye Liang for a while.
Ye Liang still maintained a respectful appearance, and at the same time took a pen and paper from the table and wrote down the names and locations of the people who did not abandon them one by one.
"Please also ask Chen Lao to take a look. Ye Liang handed it over with both hands, and Chen Lao yawned and slowly took the paper.
"Oh, didn't Elder Baili specially instruct him not to give up, why did he choose Xiaolan Mountain here, didn't you tell him the benefits and disadvantages?" Old Chen glanced at the site of the non-abandonment, and said with some surprise.
"Back to Old Chen, I have already told him, but he still insists on going to Xiaolan Mountain. Ye Liang said truthfully.
"Hmph, I don't know what to do, I'm afraid I'm going to cry and shout and come back for a re-election. Chen Lao said disdainfully: "I'm afraid it won't be easy then." ”
Ye Liang didn't say a word, waiting for Old Chen's orders.
Old Chen muttered a lot, then picked up a jade slip from the table and touched his forehead lightly.
"Wait. Elder Chen put down the jade slip, "You go and find that kid, I'll talk to him, and when the time comes, Elder Baili will blame me for not doing well." ”
"Yes. Ye Liang received the order and prepared to leave.
"Wait. Just as Ye Liang was about to leave, Chen Lao suddenly called out to him, "Forget it, don't look for it, since you have already said it, I don't need to say it, even if he regrets it, there is no way, everything will be in accordance with the rules of the sect." ”
"Yes. Ye Liang stopped and was now in front of the table.
Chen Lao touched the jade slip to his forehead again, and put the jade slip down after a while.
"This is the Formation Flag, you will use the method to tell them to let them go. With a wave of Chen Lao's robe, twenty array flags floated in the air, Ye Liang took off the storage bag on his waist and opened the bag to suck at the array flag, and all the twenty array flags were included in it.
The disciple retired. Ye Liang took the storage bag and said goodbye, and Chen Lao waved his hand to signal him to leave.
Before coming to the sand table, Ye Liang would not give up and wait for others.
"I'll give you a flag, I'll teach you how to use it, and then you'll leave here and find the address you've chosen. After Ye Liang finished speaking, he opened the storage bag, and twenty array flags floated in front of Bai Zou one by one.
Ye Liang waved his hand, and the array flag slowly floated in front of everyone.
"Senior Brother Bai, please go out and bring the next batch in, I'll teach them how to use the formation flag first. Ye Liang turned his head to Bai Zou and said.
"Okay, then I'll go out first, I'll worry about you here, Senior Brother Ye. After hearing this, Bai Zou got up and said goodbye.
Ye Liang nodded, and then looked at the people who had already obtained the formation flag.
"I'll teach you the mantra first, and this mantra must be remembered, it is a necessary mantra for you to open and close the array flag. After Ye Liang finished speaking, he said a slightly complicated mantra and instructed them to keep it in mind, and then told them the truth about the placement and use of the array flag. Everyone listened attentively.
"Well, if you have any questions, say now, if not, you can leave now and go to the address you have chosen. Ye Liang asked.
"Nope. Everyone replied in unison.
"Okay, go now. Ye Liang waved his hand and motioned for them to leave.
Everyone hugged their fists and bowed to Ye Liang, and then returned the same way. At a corner, I met a second group of people who came in.
"The second batch is Han Yao, their luck is not bad. Looking at the departing group of people, Gaudí chuckled.
"In terms of luck, we are still lucky, the first batch, such a good place in the province was robbed in advance. One of the people who did not abandon the group replied with a smile.
"Yes. Gaudí laughed.
"Farewell to all senior brothers, I'm going to find my residence first to have a good rest, I'm really tired these days. A rugged man clenched his fists and left.
After hearing this, the others also said goodbye one by one, and in a blink of an eye, there were only three people left.
"Let's go too, I'm feeling a little tired. Bu Qi looked at the people who were leaving, and said to Gao Di and Wu Ji.
"It's okay, go back and have a good rest, and tomorrow I will take a closer look at the outer gate of the Heavenly Sword Sect. Gao Di nodded, "Let's go, if I'm not mistaken, the direction of Xiaolan Mountain is here."
"Okay. Wu Ji did not give up and the two nodded, and walked in the direction pointed by Gaudi.
The basin was too wide, and the three of them walked for nearly half an hour before entering the peak.
"This Heavenly Sword Mountain Range is really vast, I waited for almost half an hour to see a peak. Looking at the mountain peak in front of him, Gao Di smiled bitterly.
"Yes, I estimate that it will take us about an hour and a half to reach Xiaolan Mountain. Wu Ji also smiled bitterly.
"It's also thanks to the fact that I don't need to go to the basin often, otherwise it would take a lot of time. "I didn't give up looking at the mountain peaks and sighed a little.
"This is only the outer door, I have heard that the outer door occupies less than a tenth of the inner door, and what if we get to the inner door. Gaudí sighed.
"Brother Gao forgot, after we get to the foundation, we can fly with a weapon, and its speed is not comparable to our walking. He said with a smile.
"Yes, I'll be overwhelmed by then. Gaudi thought for a moment and laughed at himself.
"Alright, let's hurry up, or we'll have to take advantage of the night. He looked at the slowly falling sunset and said with some urgency.
"Yes, let's hurry up, although Xiaolanshan has a residence opened by the previous disciple, we just need to clean up, but it's better to get there as soon as possible. Gaudí said.
The three of them took a short break and hurried towards Xiaolan Mountain, fortunately, the three of them were all in the realm of the tenth layer of qi refining, and the speed was not slow, and they saw the stone tablet of Xiaolan Mountain after an hour and a half.
"That's right, this is Xiaolan Mountain. Looking at the stone tablet at the foot of Xiaolan Mountain, Gaudi said.
"There is only one mountain in this radius, and it is at the mercy of the sand table. After looking at the flat ground around him, he said slowly.
"Then let's go up and see where the residence opened by the disciple before. Wu Ji looked at Xiao Lanshan and said.
The two nodded, and the three of them walked towards Xiaolan Mountain.
"Although this Xiaolan Mountain is not too steep, it is not too flat, and I think this residence will probably be in the form of a cave. Gaudí stepped on the ground under his feet and said.
As he was talking, the three of them saw a cave.
"This is the first one, the three of us who went to live. Looking at the wooden door of the cave mansion, Gaudi smiled.
"This...", I didn't give up, and I wanted to stop talking.
"What's the matter, don't abandon fellow Daoists. Seeing that he had something to say, Gaudí asked.
"I took a look at this Xiaolan Mountain, this Xiaolan Mountain is a small and medium-sized peak among the peaks in this vicinity and even in the outer gate, we can look at the whole mountain and see how many caves are discussing who is going to live where. Not giving up on saying what he thought, Gao Di and Wu Ji nodded in agreement.
"It makes sense not to abandon what Daoyou said, now that the sky is still a little bright, let's take a clear look at this Xiaolan Mountain. Gao Di said, and so did Wu Ji.
The three of them did not stop and began to survey the terrain of Xiaolan Mountain.
More than half an hour later, the three of them sat down again on the first Dongfu Mountain they had discovered before.
"Don't abandon Daoyou, you can tell me the form here. Gaudi said.
Without giving up or refusing, he got up and broke off a branch, and spent a sketch of Xiaolan Mountain on the ground, and then marked the mark in the picture. He said: "The three of us also looked at it just now, there are five caves in Xiaolan Mountain, which gives us multiple choices. Bu Qi said, pointing to the five places marked.
"In addition, I found that there is a stream flowing through the four caves, so I suggest that if we choose, we should choose these four houses, so that it is easier to get water. "He did not abandon the stream and showed flowers on it, and he encircled four of the caves.
Bu Qi paused for a moment, and then said: "And these four caves are not far from each other, and most of them are on the mountainside, which is also convenient for us to go up and down the mountain." ”
"Hmm. Gao Di nodded and said, "Don't abandon the Taoist friends to observe really carefully." ”
"Where, I just used to live in the mountains, and I'm more familiar with these. He said.
"Which cave do those two fellow Daoists choose to go to? Gaudí didn't say much about this, straight to the point.
"Martial Pole Daoist come first, I can go anywhere. "Don't give up the first choice to Wu Ji.
"The two Taoist friends are really modest, okay, then I'll be cheeky and far away. Wu Ji scratched his head and said
Wu Ji looked at the four caves circled, and it was a little difficult to choose.
"Martial Pole Daoist friends can choose at will, anyway, there are four here, and the locations are not bad. Seeing that Wu Ji was difficult to choose, he didn't give up and chuckled.
Wu Ji scratched his head slightly embarrassed, pointed to one of them and said, "Then I'll choose this one." ”
Buqi nodded, and then looked at Gaudi.
"If you don't abandon your fellow Daoists, you choose first, and I will choose last. Seeing the unrelenting gaze, Gaudí chuckled.
"Then you're welcome, I want this. "Don't give up, it's not hypocritical, point to one of them.
"Then I'll choose this one. Gaudí also chose one.
After the three of them made their choices, they discussed going to the basin together tomorrow and then left to go to the cave house they had chosen.
Don't give up and go to the cave house of your choice and push open the wooden door.
"Ahem. ”
When I opened the wooden door, a puff of dust greeted me.
"It's been a long time since no one lived. With a light wave of his hand, he said without abandoning Zou Mei.
"Whew. The calf never gave up his little head in his arms, and when he saw the dust in the sky, his head shrank back into his arms.
"Ahem, you better wait until I'm done packing up before coming out. ”
Don't give up and swallow, find a broom from the cave, and start sweeping around the cave.
After two incense sticks, he walked out of the cave with a disgraced face, still holding a rag and a wooden barrel in his hand.
By this time, the night had already darkened, and the bright moon hung high in the sky, and there was silence all around.
Bu gave up, took advantage of the moonlight, walked to the stream, washed the rag, fetched a bucket of water, and returned to the cave to continue cleaning.
... ...
"Phew, it's finally done. Bu abandoned the slump on the chair, looking at the neat cave house, his heart suddenly felt a little comfortable.
"Hey, get some sleep!" Stretching his waist, he walked towards the bedroom without giving up.
"Whew. When he entered the bedroom, the calf suddenly jumped out of the corner and lay on the bed and refused to give up.
"What are you doing. "Don't give up a little annoyed, I'm tired for a day, and the calf is making trouble again?
"You've eaten too, what do you want to do?"
"Woohoo woo. The calf's two little paws covered his nose and watched.
After living with the calf for a few years, I can still know a lot about what the calf wants to express, and I immediately sniffed my clothes.
"Phew. ”
With clean clothes and without abandoning them, he walked towards the outside of the cave and walked to the stream.
After tossing for a while, he didn't give up before returning to the cave, and the calf also obediently got out of the way, and lay on his chest after lying on the bed.
"Sleep. He muttered, and after a while, he fell asleep.
