Slowly Mountains and Seas Chapter 7: All the way to the north

Since I had come to Mr. Zhu before, I went directly to the door of Zhu's house. Before the door was closed, Zhu Xiaokui greeted him and said with a smile: "Grandpa said that there is a distinguished guest here, two heroes, please come in." ”

Wu Xiu and Han Donglai hugged their fists, and Han Donglai said: "We call you Little Immortal Master, should we call your grandfather Old Immortal?"

Zhu Xiaokui smiled, "You can call it anything, my grandfather doesn't stick to these." ”

Zhu Xiaokui led the two into the house, the front room was more messy, and the objects related to the business of the Zhu family were placed, Zhu Xiaokui opened the door curtain, it was another scene, there was a camphor tree in the middle of a huge yard, and when I walked into the yard, I felt that the camphor fragrance was overflowing, refreshing, and people were also a little more energetic. On the recliner on the side of the courtyard, there was an old man in a green shirt, smoking dry cigarettes, flying clouds and fog, and when he saw Wu Xiu and Han Dong coming in, he got up to greet him, "Two little brothers, let's meet again." ”

Wu Xiu and Han Donglai hugged their fists together, Wu Xiu said: "The junior has seen Mr. Zhu, he was too busy last time, it stands to reason that Mr. Zhu has been busy for a few days and nights, and he has to send it in person." ”

Mr. Zhu shook his hand and said, "What Mr. and Mr. are all lifted by the villagers, Xiaokui, move two chairs over and make two cups of tea." ”

In the courtyard, Mr. Zhu sat on a recliner, opposite Wu Xiu and Han Donglai, and Zhu Xiaokui brought tea, which was not a good tea, but it was something that ordinary local people could afford to drink. Mr. Zhu lifted the cigarette pouch, "Taste?"

Wu Xiu waved his hand, "This really won't." ”

Mr. Zhu smiled and lit the tobacco with a tribute incense, and then inserted the green smoke on the chaise longue, took a deep breath, and asked, "Are you from the rivers and lakes?"

Wu Xiu replied: "It's half a Jianghu person." ”

Mr. Zhu knocked on the cigarette pouch, "That's okay." However, when people walk in the rivers and lakes, it is better to be careful. A Huang Sanduo can't do anything to you, but what about Wang Sanduo and Li Sanduo in the future? Do you think your martial arts skills are high enough? Your body skills are good enough? After defeating a Huang Sanduo, you will regard yourself as a great master of the rivers and lakes?"

Wu Xiu and Han Donglai were dumbfounded by this sharp question, and Han Donglai was slightly displeased, "Mr. Zhu, we are here to thank you today, if there is nothing to do, we will leave first." As he spoke, he was about to get up, but he was slapped down by Wu Xiu.

Mr. Zhu smiled, "Why, the heroes of the rivers and lakes don't even have this bit of energy?"

Wu Xiu hugged his fists and said, "Mr. Zhu, we are just starting to set foot in the rivers and lakes. In the past, we were soldiers of the Great Wei Dynasty, and we only knew how to kill the enemy on the battlefield, but after leaving the army, we encountered some injustices, and we couldn't stand it, so we still wanted to take care of it. We also know that there are many, many masters in this world, and some of the killing skills we have honed on the battlefield may be mundane in their eyes. He paused, "For example, Mr. Zhu, you may be an unborn master." ”

Mr. Zhu smiled: "I'm just an old man." He asked, "Will you two return to the army in the future, or will you continue to walk the rivers and lakes?"

Wu Xiu said: "My brother wants to go back to his hometown, I still have to take a walk, and I will return to my hometown when the matter is done." ”

Mr. Zhu sighed, "It's a pity." Why don't you worship the mountain gate, you can go down the mountain and on the mountain, learn a skill and then go to the rivers and lakes. There are such good weapons, they can't be buried. ”

Wu Xiu smiled: "Senior Xie reminded, let's wait and see, it can't be settled for the time being." ”

Han Donglai kept looking at Mr. Zhu, and suddenly asked, "Who are you?

Mr. Zhu laughed loudly, "Presumably if I say yes, you won't believe it." In short, the person who is talking to you now is a Mr. Singer who has eaten a few more bowls of rice. ”

Wu Xiu nodded and said, "We have seen Master Zhu's methods, so Mr. Zhu should not hide it." ”

Zhu Xiaokui had long wanted to speak on the side, and said proudly: "What about my grandfather, let's put it this way, he is an immortal in the mouth of ordinary people, a predecessor in the eyes of the monks on the mountain, and a hundred years ago in the rivers and lakes, he was a ghost path master!"

Mr. Zhu coughed twice.

Han Donglai asked, "Same as that Huang Sanduo?"

Zhu Xiaokui didn't want to interject anymore, but he couldn't help but say: "He, in the eyes of my grandfather, he is the last of the best." But don't think that ghost cultivation doesn't sound good, or even a little scary, but it's also one of the four realms. In our eyes, as long as the heart is not bad, it doesn't matter what we cultivate. ”

Han Dong couldn't get used to Zhu Xiaokui's unbeaten expression, "Anyway, I don't know how to cultivate any ghost ways, and I deal with ghosts all day long, so I panic." ”

Zhu Xiaokui was about to debate with Han Donglai, but Mr. Zhu coughed twice, "Xiaokui, go to the front room to see if anyone is looking for it, it's spring, and there are many dead people." ”

Zhu Xiaokui glared at Han Donglai, left in a huff, and didn't forget to stick out his tongue at Han Donglai before leaving.

Mr. Zhu said: "Although my grandson has passed the age of weak crowns, he is still a little childish, and the two of them are not strange. ”

Wu Xiu asked, "Mr. Zhu, what are the four paths?"

Mr. Zhu was a little surprised, and asked, "You two really don't know anything about this, so where did your weapons come from?"

Wu Xiu said: "My spear is a trophy on the battlefield, and my brother's sword is a gift from a fox demon. We have just come out of the rivers and lakes, and we only know the surface of what is going on up and down the mountain, and we have not heard what you just said. ”

Mr. Zhu picked up the cigarette pouch sandwiched on the rattan chair again, lit it with the same movement, and took a deep breath, "Then I'll tell you about it." ”

He knocked his cigarette pouch and continued: "The four paths are the four cultivation schools in the mountain sect, which are the immortal path, the demon path, the demon path, and the ghost path. The names are different, and the practice methods are also different, but the ultimate goal is to become a great god in the eyes of the common people, calling for wind and rain, and omnipotent. Among the four paths, the fairy road is the head, the monks are also the most, the demon path is the second, the demon path is the most mysterious, and it has never been too inquisitive, and my ghost path is the most lonely, and the talent is withering. Regarding the rivers and lakes in the world under this mountain, most of them are dominated by martial artists in the rivers and lakes, belonging to the same genre, nothing more than using swords and knives and fists, there is nothing to say. ”

Han Donglai asked, "Senior, what level do you belong to with your means, how much more powerful than that Huang San?"

Mr. Zhu smiled, "What, you want to try?"

"Don't dare, just ask. ”

"Huang Sanduo is just a ghost path monk with a low cultivation, just getting started. Either of you, with a little effort, you can defeat it. ”

Wu Xiu asked, "There should be a realm division in this, right?"

Mr. Zhu said: "That's right, the division of the realm on the mountain is still very detailed, there is a difference between the realms, the first five and the last four, the first five realms are for cultivating the spirit of knowledge, and the last four realms are for asking for no wishes." There are no such rules under the mountain, it is nothing more than what refining the body, dragon breath, opening acupoints, merging pulses, turning gang, moving will, being unequaled, transforming the realm and the legendary return to the truth, and the gods, but the rules under the mountain are more messy, and there is no system, and the names are different. ”

Wu Xiudao: "It turns out that there are so many sayings, I don't know what realm we are in as people who practice martial arts. ”

Han Donglai said: "I think I must be the first body refiner, we haven't done anything else except this over the years." ”

Mr. Zhu smiled and said: "Indeed, your body is naturally not bad, and the breathing method has also been tempered by the battlefield, it should be the realm of opening acupoints, and now you need the guidance of the martial arts master, otherwise it will be difficult to get closer." ”

Wu Xiudao: "What Zhu said is actually that I also know some, when I was a child, there was an old man in my village, who should be a retired Jianghu person, my fist and foot kung fu was taught to me by him, and he also told me that if you want to become a real grandmaster, you must first temper your body, exhale like a dragon, Rio Tuo acupuncture points, swim in the meridians, sink the dantian, merge the veins into the sea, turn the qi into Gang, take Gang as the attack, the heart moves with the will, and the mind moves with the mind. As for the Wushuang and Transformation Realm that Zhu said later, as well as the legendary Returning to Truth and Divine Appearance, I don't know. ”

Mr. Zhu nodded, "It seems that the person who taught you fist and foot kung fu is an expert, as for the Wushuang and Transformation Realm, it can't be said that it is a specific realm, and when you reach the Yidong Realm, you will know what the latter means." Why don't you really go up the mountain to practice?"

Wu Xiu shook his head, "Not yet, there are still some things to do." ”

Han Donglai had been thoughtful and asked, "Is it the strength of the mountain monks or the strength of us martial arts practitioners?"

Mr. Zhu thought for a while and shook his head, "This, I can't give an answer, and there is no answer." ”

Han Donglai asked: "The rivers and lakes in this world are all the same rivers and lakes, isn't there a winner or loser?"

Mr. Zhu said with a smile: "This little fight is every day, and the fights of the masters are also every month and every year, there are winners and losers, there are injuries and deaths, it can't be said that the Jianghu martial artist lost today, it means that the ability of the mountain monk who fought with him is higher, and it can't be said that the loss of the monk on the Tianshan Mountain means that the ability of the Jianghu martial artist who fought with him is worse." ”

Han Donglai was puzzled and asked, "Why?"

Mr. Zhu replied very quickly: "Because both sides have wins and losses, both life and death, and they have to distinguish between high and low, may I ask this young man who looks like a woman, how do you divide it?"

Han Donglai rolled his eyes, "It's not enough to let the two people with the highest realm fight!"

Mr. Zhu snorted, "Shaoxia, you go and find me the two highest realms and let them fight." ”

Han Donglai stopped talking, but he still looked arrogant.

The atmosphere was slightly awkward.

Wu Xiu smiled: "Senior, don't blame, my brother likes to quarrel with others." But seniors, juniors have one more thing to ask, as a ghost path master, why do you want to live in seclusion at the foot of the mountain, and you are still in such a small place?"

Mr. Zhu's eyes were dark, but he said lightly: "Because no one is looking for me to fight here, and no one is intriguing with me." ”

Wu Xiu nodded and asked, "The realm of the predecessors must be very high, right?"

Mr. Zhu lit another cigarette and took a deep breath, "What?

Wu Xiu shook his head, Han Donglai also looked at the sky, Wu Xiu said: "The predecessors are from the mountain, we are all from the mountain, we joined the army when we were young, if the general trend is determined today, we will not fight and die on the battlefield, we have to take a look at this life in this world, walk more, and pass more, and we will not go up the mountain to practice for the time being." ”

Mr. Zhu also nodded, "Yes, while you are young, you want to walk more." ”

Zhu Xiaokui came over at this time and asked, "Grandpa, when can I go out for a walk?"

Mr. Zhu knocked the cigarette pouch again, "You are gone, who will serve your grandfather?"

Zhu Xiaokui said: "Grandpa's body is tough, and one person is fine." ”

Mr. Zhu lay back, "You are not good enough, I am afraid that I will be beaten to death when you go out." Then my Zhu family is really extinct. ”

Zhu Xiaokui was about to refute, but Mr. Zhu said: "Stay for now, and I'll let you go when your realm is enough." ”

Zhu Xiaokui sighed, a little lost.

Wu Xiu and Han Donglai stood up, and Wu Xiu said: "Senior Zhu, thank you for telling us so much today, we will definitely be careful when we walk the rivers and lakes in the future." We'll take our leave first, and we'll definitely come to visit our seniors when we have the opportunity in the future. ”

Mr. Zhu had closed his eyes slightly, "Yes, life is the biggest capital, but you can't die, if you die, you won't have anything!"

Wu Xiu hugged his fists and smiled: "Thank you seniors for reminding." Farewell!"

Zhu Xiaokui sent the two to the door, Wu Xiu saw that he was a little lonely, so he said: "Master Zhu Xiaoxian, in fact, you don't have to be so sad, you have such a good grandfather, we really envy you, your grandfather is right, when your realm is high and your cultivation is strong, it is not bad to go out and walk the rivers and lakes." You're still young, after all. ”

Zhu Xiaokui nodded, and grinned again: "Then the rivers and lakes will meet again." ”

"Goodbye!"

The two of them have one more thing, that is, to buy more rice, flour, grain and oil to go back, today is a hot set, so they go shopping leisurely.

In the courtyard of the Zhu family, Zhu Xiaokui squatted next to Mr. Zhu, holding a small piece of charcoal in his hand, drawing an incomprehensible pattern on the ground, every time he finished painting the pattern, the golden light flashed, and then gradually disappeared, but Zhu Xiaokui was happy, painted one after another, Mr. Zhu next to him lay motionless on the chair, as if dead, Zhu Xiaokui asked: "Grandpa, why do you want to tell them so much." Last time a few people came to visit you, you were closed, and this time you invited them to come. Are the two of them special?"

Mr. Zhu was silent for a while, and said lazily: "That person surnamed Wu is a talent who can be created, and he has a big atmosphere in his heart, and he hasn't seen a young man with such good qualifications for a long time." Although the one surnamed Han is a little worse, his sword intent is not bad. If two people go up the mountain to practice, the surname Han is stronger than the surname Wu, and if they take the road of martial arts, the surname Wu is stronger. In short, each has its own strengths, these two people are not bad-hearted, I am also for you to make a good fate, for you to walk the rivers and lakes in the future, a few more friends. ”

Zhu Xiaokui pursed his mouth, "The rivers and lakes are so dangerous, I am in the Spiritual Realm, you don't let me go, they have just opened the cave, can they guarantee that they will not die?"

Mr. Zhu opened his eyes, "Who said they just opened the acupuncture?"

"You, I heard you talking in the backyard in the front room. ”

Mr. Zhu sat up and took a sip of the strong tea that Zhu Xiaokui had brewed just now, "That's to tell them, especially which surname is Wu, with a little advice, it can be combined into the sea, and it seems that Huagang will not be far away." ”

Zhu Xiaokui blinked and sighed, "No wonder, last time Huang Sanduo lost so completely, he used the Yin Soldier Talisman, although the grade is not high, it is more than enough to deal with two low-end martial artists." By the way, grandpa, have you seen their weapons?"

Mr. Zhu nodded, "I've seen it, that gun is not a mortal thing, it is something from the mountain, but it is concealed." I recognize that sword, a famous thing of wild cultivation. ”

Zhu Xiaokui asked, "Grandpa can't break the covert means?"

Mr. Zhu said: "Of course you can use some means, but why should I break it? Besides, his realm is too low now, if someone finds out, killing people and taking treasures will not harm him." ”

"Grandpa, I want to go out. ”

"Where are you going?"

"Wander the rivers and lakes!"

"Stay and go!"

......

In the evening, the two of them went home with the things they purchased, during which Han Donglai had to go to the yamen, sure enough, the door was open, and there were many people working inside, basically presided over by the clerk, the two smiled, it seems that Qianfang Town has really changed. When I got home, it was still Dongmei cooking, and after the family finished eating, the old lady took out the mille-feuille shoes that had been made in a hurry in the past few days, and the two had to try whether they fit or not, so the two had to take off their shoes and try on shoes. However, Han Donglai's pair is really small, but he also put it away with a smile, Wu Xiu's pair fits right and is very comfortable to wear.

Wu Xiu was going to leave tomorrow, so he was wrapped in a cowhide package.

In the courtyard, Wu Xiu and Han Donglai moved a stone slab to make a small table, and made four small stools out of mud, and the four of them sat in the courtyard to admire the moon, eating the snacks sold by Han Donglai, and drinking the tea that ordinary people in Qianfang Town drank. Today, the moon is full, the night light is like water, Huang Dongmei is wearing the new clothes that Han Donglai bought, the floral skirt, which is very beautiful.

Before leaving, Wu Xiu had something to say.

Wu Xiu got straight to the point and said, "Old lady, I'll leave tomorrow, I have something to say." ”

The old lady seemed to have expected it, "Say it." ”

"Actually, it's mainly about Dongmei's marriage, I think, if Dongmei is willing to marry Han Donglai, this matter will be settled, right?"

Dongmei was a little shy, lowered her head slightly, and her face was slightly red.

It's even better.

Han Donglai was a little nervous, his eyes lit up, and it seemed that he had been waiting for this moment for a long time.

But after all, the matter still had to be agreed by the old lady, so neither of them spoke.

The old lady said: "I'm old, some things are still Dongmei's own decision, but there are some things to be said clearly, my Huang family is the only seedling, no matter who can bully my Dongmei, let alone dislike her, there is one more thing, that is, my Huang family has no queen, and one of the children born in the future must be surnamed Huang." ”

Wu Xiu looked at Han Donglai, Han Donglai nodded, and he said, "Don't worry, old lady, I also calculated it like this." ”

Wu Xiu looked at Dongmei and said with a smile: "What about Dongmei? What do you mean? If you are still a little worried, I can make an appointment with Han Dong today, and if he breaches the contract in the future, I will call the shots for you." ”

Dongmei pulled her hair from her sideburns and said softly, "I'm only worried about grandma, nothing else, nothing else." ”

Wu Xiu shrugged his shoulders towards Han Donglai and motioned for Han Donglai to speak.

Han Donglai speaks very neatly on weekdays, but today he is inconsistent, "I, I, I listen to the eldest brother, the old lady and Dongmei, it is okay to stay in Huangjia Village, and it is okay to go to my Hanshan County, but I have to come back every year on the Qingming Festival, to the fourth brother, not the fourth brother, no, to sweep the tomb of my father." ”

The word daddy is very quiet. Wu Xiu couldn't help but laugh a little.

It's a mess of time.

Wu Xiu nodded, turned his head and asked the old lady, "Old lady, what do you mean?"

The old lady nodded, "I'll stay here, you two go out to break into you, just come back and see me when you have time." ”

"No, I'm never going to leave my grandmother. Dongmei said urgently.

Han Donglai said again: "I listen to Dongmei." ”

The old lady sighed, "The girl who got married spilled the water, what are you doing with me, an old woman, staying in the Huang family, going back to the Han family with your husband and living a good life." ”

Dongmei said: "No, if grandma doesn't go with me, or if she drives me away, I'd rather die than get married." ”

That's a bit tricky.

However, Han Donglai said: "Old lady, Dongmei, don't worry about it first. In this way, we will not leave, we will accompany the old lady here, live together, build a house next to it, in short, we will not leave the old lady too far. ”

The old lady asked, "I heard that you are going to go home to regain your family business and revive your Han family, but you won't do any of that?"

Han Donglai said: "Do it, definitely do it." But for now, the old lady should be the main one. ”

Dongmei also nodded and said, "Grandma, you raised me, I will never leave you." ”

The old lady sighed, "It's not okay if a big man doesn't have some ambitions. Some things must be done and cannot be delayed. ”

It's really hard to do.

The four of them were silent, and Wu Xiu had no foolproof plan, so he had to wait for one person to take a step back.

The old lady sighed again, "Okay, I'm also old, I want to go out for a walk while I can, I will go back to Hanshan County with you, but you must promise me that you will come back every year to stay for a few days." ”

Han Donglai grinned: "Of course, even if you don't come, we will come back." ”

Dongmei lowered her head slightly and stopped talking.

Things ended up being a good one.

Wu Xiu asked, "What day do you choose?"

Dongmei said: "Brother Wu, I hope you can be present on the day we get married, and we will wait for you." ”

Han Donglai was a little anxious, "The boss is going to a far away place, and he won't be able to come back for a while." ”

Wu Xiu pondered: "In this way, if things go well, I will start to return after June, and I can basically get to Hanshan County in July, and if I can't get there at the end of July, it means that I can't get there, or... Anyway, you're going to get married in early August. ”

Han Donglai nodded, "It's okay." We still have to live in Huangjia Village for a while, and then we will set off back to Hanshan County when the weather is warm, and we will have to buy a house and buy some things when we return to Hanshan County. August is just the end of the busy month. ”

All four seconded.

It was late at night, and an important matter was finally settled.

That night, Wu Xiu slept deeply.

Early the next morning, Wu Xiu heard the sound of clanging in the yard, it turned out that the old lady and Dongmei were making a kind of pancake made by the locals, this kind of cake is very thin, very hard, and resistant to storage, the two of them are very busy, in short, a whole bag of cakes made of white flour is left to dry like that, and it will be wrapped up after it is completely cold. After eating a sumptuous breakfast, Wu Xiu led the horse and walked out of the courtyard in the words of everyone's thousands of instructions, Han Donglai insisted on sending it, so the two rode side by side.

I was silent all the way, as if I couldn't lift my spirits, and I didn't want to speak.

It's all in plain sight.

After walking for a few miles, Han Donglai finally couldn't help it, and when he arrived at the place where he was fighting with Huang Sanduo, he said: "Boss, you haven't told me what you're going to do this time, so I won't ask, but I know it's a very dangerous thing." ”

Wu Xiu nodded, "Treat the old lady and Dongmei well, if I can't come back, the five of us brothers will be left with you, live well." ”

Han Donglai's eyes were red, and he asked, "Boss, can't you not go?"

Wu Xiu shook his head, "No, you know, it's the same as killing the enemy on the battlefield, you can't refuse, besides, since I know this task and agree to this task, I have to do it, if I can't do it, I may die." ”

Han Donglai sighed, "Boss, you must come and drink my wedding wine." ”

Wu Xiu patted Han Donglai on the shoulder heavily, "As long as I don't die, I will definitely come!"

"Boss, take care all the way. ”

"Good. ”

"Goodbye. ”

"Goodbye. ”

"Give it a hug. ”

β€œ...... All right. ”

............

One ride, one person.

All the way north.

While looking at the mountains and rivers, while watching people and things, by the way, I wandered the rivers and lakes, although I was only half a river and lake person.

Official road, right away.

Wu Xiu remembered what Mr. Zhu said that day about the realm of martial arts, refining the body, dragon breath, opening acupoints, merging pulses, turning gang, moving will, being unequaled, transforming the realm, and returning to the truth and divine appearance, although I knew a thing or two when I was a child, but they were all just scratching the surface. Although the scar on his body is not good-looking, he has finally developed a tough physique on the battlefield, and the breathing method he learned in some life and death battles seems to be the dragon's breath realm. However, for opening acupoints, he only knows that the human body has eight strange meridians, and he doesn't know how to do it, and he won't open up the methods of these acupoints. It seems that if you have time and opportunity, you still have to find a Jianghu Grandmaster to ask for advice.

One person and one horse, slowly walking on the official road, passing through Luocheng Wu Xiu also had no intention of getting off the horse, but saw the high city wall from a distance, the colorful flags fluttered on the city wall, and there was an endless stream of pedestrians outside the gate, and the scale was much larger than the several counties that passed, but I didn't know how it was compared with the capital of the country in the north. Wu Xiu turned the horse's head and walked into one of several forks in the road, which also belongs to the official road, and he has the Great Wei Kanyu map purchased from Qianfang Town in his arms, which is absolutely new, because the land of the Great Song Dynasty west of Bishan is also drawn in it, and it cost him ten taels of silver, but he didn't expect that a Kanyu map can make a small family eat white flour steamed buns for half a month, which is really outrageous. However, these maps are sold to those high-rollers and merchants who spend a lot of money, and ordinary people can only go home and paste the wall with this. Wu Xiu spread out the map of the Great Wei Kanyu made of sheepskin, counted the places he had walked, started from the Wei camp at the foot of the mountain, and walked to the west of the Great Wei, the first place to stay was in Yunshui County, and drank flower wine in the Fenghualou of Yunshui County, and also helped the red man write a letter to Wen Ruo, and encountered a seemingly planned assassination when he went out of the city, the young general surnamed Chen took the secret weapon called Tang Sanxiao with his chest in order to save the beautiful girl named Ling'er, the old man in the robe surnamed Wei seemed to be not weak in kung fu, and the woodcutter and the village girl looked like a swordsman。 Outside Xinyue County, I met He Jiancheng and a group of green forest heroes in Erlong Mountain Heifeng Village, Liu Dalong, the owner of Heifeng Village, although his kung fu is low, but he is bold, and he will have time to drink with him in the future, and the fox demon Zhang Xiaolian who turned into a human form should belong to the demon monks in the four realms, she was a little unhappy with He Jiancheng for love, but in the end it was all resolved, and the He family was back on track, I don't know if He Jiancheng at this time has resolved the resentment in his heart. In that quiet and fresh Qingfeng Town, he sent off the Cao family's mother, and met Cao Jiarui, a scholar who was as angry as an immortal, and his ideal was to win the top three and be a good official. held a funeral for Huang Er in Huangjia Village, Qianfang Town, repaired the Huang family's house up and down, fought with a ghost monk named Huang Sanduo, killed the town official, and gave Qianfang Town a peace, met the ghost master Mr. Zhu and his energetic grandson Zhu Xiaokui, who always likes to grin, and the most important thing is to solve Dongmei's marriage, and the dead Huang Er should be able to look at it.

Hopefully everything is okay.

Wu Xiu didn't want to stop along the way, he just wanted to hurry. Anyway, there will be pancakes made by the old lady of the Huang family and Huang Dongmei, who is already half a brother-in-law, a whole big bag, which can be eaten for a long time.

Liuxia County should belong to the east on the territory of the Great Wei, but in the central and eastern regions, it still goes all the way to the north, but the further north you go, there are many mountains and mountains. The topography of the Great Wei Dynasty is from north to south, the north is high and the south is bottom, there are many mountains in the north, and even in the northwest, for example, Wu Xiu's hometown Fancheng is far away in the northwest corner, and Fancheng is further northwest is the mountain known as 100,000, the south is hilly and plain, and the southeast is even more, which is also the root of the perennial attack of the Wei king in the east of the Great Song Dynasty, because there are large areas of fertile land in the rear, fertile fields for thousands of miles. This road to Liuxia Town, although gradually more mountainous roads, but can not be regarded as a rugged and dangerous road, the horse is tired, Wu Xiu will get off the horse, lead the horse, eat and sleep, take the sky as the cover and the earth as the house, to be honest, if someone meets him in the wild, he will definitely be amazed by his courage, and some people may say, stupid people are stupid and bold.

No, after climbing over a hill, the sun has completely set. Wu Xiu is going to find a place to camp, he likes to sleep by the water, so he found a wild stream in the mountains that is not big or small, the clear water is deep, the water is clear, suitable for direct drinking, Wu Xiu bowed to wash his face, and after washing his face, he wanted to find some dry firewood to make a fire, after all, fire in the wild is a minimum guarantee. But faintly I heard some voices outside the woods, due to the terrain, the sound of talking over there happened to be here, so Wu Xiu stopped his movements and listened carefully.

"Senior brother, there won't be any danger this time, right?" a young man's voice asked, seeming a little timid.

"You're just afraid of death, why won't you go down the mountain for the rest of your life?" replied a young man's voice.

At this time, a crisp girl's voice said disdainfully: "Senior brother, don't bring this bad thing next time you go out, let him die on the mountain, don't go down the mountain for the rest of his life, and don't stop on the mountain, make this senior sister cry today, and provoke that senior sister to chase and beat tomorrow." If you make the sect into a miasma, I don't understand, why did the old man accept him like this crooked melon and cracked date!"

Senior brother, look at the fourth senior sister, why are you so vicious, will you still marry in the future?" the young man shouted.

The girl wanted to say something more, but the man known as the senior brother pressed down, "Okay, okay, you remember, don't openly quarrel in front of others after you go down the mountain, especially when you go to the Qingliu Pavilion, see more and talk less." ”

The girl was muttering softly, "Don't go down the mountain if you're afraid of death, don't be afraid of death if you go down the mountain." What to repair on the mountain, shame on people!"

"Gu Shaoyun, don't take an inch, don't think that I don't dare, don't dare to move the sword with you, don't think that I won't sue you in front of the master, it's tolerable or unbearable, you wait!"

"Yo yo yo, come on, do you dare to draw your sword and try it? ”

"Then please ignore me!"

"Wang Dazhuang, you are looking for death!"

"Okay, okay, can you stop the meeting! The mountain is noisy and the mountain is down, you two are not tired. ”

"Who!

The sound of drawing the sword sounded one after another, followed by another slow half-beat voice, which was called the voice of the senior brother and asked, "Your Excellency is hiding in the dark and eavesdropping, is it too unruly?"

Wu Xiu was a little embarrassed, in fact, he didn't want to eavesdrop, but the sound of those words just reached this forest, so he slowly walked out of the forest and explained: "Three, I'm really not eavesdropping. I was passing through here on my way and camping here. ”

Wu Xiu looked at the three of them, a little innocent.

Two men and one woman, among them, the young man in the lead is slender, dignified, extraordinary at a glance, it must be the senior brother, although the girl is not very good, but the long is very outstanding, she has a cold look, but it is like always ready to fight to the death, and finally it is the young man, he hid half of his body behind the senior brother, and his face is still a little childish, at this time he is tilting his head and looking at Wu Xiu. The girl moved her mouth and squinted at the senior brother, as if communicating, the senior brother shook his head, not knowing what to deny.

The senior brother said, "Who is Your Excellency?"

Wu Xiu explained: "I passed through this place, and I camped here because it was dark. ”

The outstanding-looking girl said: "Senior brother, this person is sneaky at the foot of my Cangshan Gate, he must be plotting against him, now the master is in retreat, no one can disturb his cultivation, I think I should tie him up, torture and torture him." ”

This was obviously said to Wu Xiu.

Seeing that there was no intention of fighting immediately, the senior brother put the sword into the sheath, and the other two were still holding the horizontal sword in their hands, and the senior brother asked, "Your Excellency is a monk?"

Wu Xiu shook his head, "No." ”

The senior brother asked again, "Jianghu martial arts?"

Wu Xiu shook his head and nodded again, "It's half." ”

"Then where are you going, passing through our Cangshan Gate?"

"Go to Liuxia County. ”

The senior brother finally nodded, waved his hand back, the young boy and girl put away their weapons, and he asked: "Your Excellency is not a monk, and he is half a person from the rivers and lakes, so you dare to camp in this deep mountain and wild forest?"

Wu Xiudao: "A person is used to it, and he is reluctant to pay for a hotel..."

The other two drew their swords again.

Seeing that Wu Xiu hadn't finished speaking, the senior brother swept in front of Wu Xiu with a fast and almost weird body, and at the same time punched Wu Xiu's chest. But Wu Xiu didn't stand up and take that punch, he dodged sideways, his right fist went straight up from the bottom, and wanted to hit the opponent's door, the other party smiled slightly, drew a circle with his body, and kicked Wu Xiu's waist, Wu Xiu also reacted very quickly, and raised his foot to kick the inner thigh of the leg that was still staying in his waist.

Both sides took three steps back.

The senior brother hugged his fists and said: "In Chen Dingdu, Xiacangshan Gate, these two are my junior sister Gu Shaoyun and junior brother Wang Dazhuang." ”

Wu Xiu also hugged his fists and said, "Down, Wu Xiu." ”

Chen Dingdu said with a smile: "Now that the matter has been clarified, it is a misunderstanding, and it is a lot of offense." ”

Wu Xiu nodded, "It's okay, the three of you, please keep going." Leave. ”

The girl named Gu Shaoyun seemed to dislike it, "Senior brother, I didn't say it clearly, I can't let him go!"

Chen Dingdu said with a smile: "Fourth Senior Sister, this young man is indeed passing by here in a hurry, so let's not embarrass others." ”

Gu Shaoyun's face was gloomy and he stopped talking.

Chen Dingdu smiled: "Farewell." ”

The three of them walked in front with Chen Ding, Gu Shaoyun and Wang Dazhuang walked side by side in the back, and Gu Shaoyun intentionally or unintentionally distanced himself from Wang Dazhuang. It seems that he really hates Wang Dazhuang very much.

Wang Dazhuang kept smiling, he didn't know what he was happy about, he walked about a hundred steps, he looked back at the place where Wu Xiu was standing just now, how did he know that Wu Xiu was also looking at him, Wang Dazhuang smiled embarrassedly, turned around, and strode forward, Gu Shaoyun beside him glared at him, and the distance was even wider.

Gu Shaoyun pondered and said, "Senior brother, what kind of cultivation was that person just now?"

Chen Dingdu said: "It's like a martial artist from the rivers and lakes who was born in the wild road, but his body breath and strength are not weak." ”

Gu Shaoyun said again: "Just let it go?"

Chen Dingdu smiled and didn't speak.

Gu Shaoyun saw that Senior Brother Chen Ding ignored him, and the second stunned person next to him seemed to have taken the wrong medicine, so he began to be depressed, thinking that he really shouldn't go out this time, and he had to fight with the third senior sister, but he didn't expect to be so unhappy, and he died of grievance.

The three of them walked about five miles, Chen Ding looked at the sky, the bright moon was on his head, but there were large dark clouds moving slowly, and a breeze rose between the sky and the earth, and the breeze swept by, blowing through their same white robes. It seemed that it was going to rain, Chen Dingdu smiled and said, "You two follow this road and wait for me in Shenshui Town ahead." ”

Gu Shaoyun was surprised: "Senior brother, what's wrong?"

Chen Dingdu smiled: "You two just have to hurry." ”

Gu Shaoyun wanted to say something more, but Wang Dazhuang strode in front, "Senior brother, I'm waiting for you in Shenshui Town, I heard that there are three pools of clear springs in Shenshui Town that have not dried up for thousands of years, and the local people call it Shentan, I will definitely make a pot of spring water, soak in the snow mist of Cangshan Mountain at our mountain gate and wait for my senior brother to come back." ”

Gu Shaoyun looked at Wang Dazhuang, who looked like he was underbeaten, dodged his feet, and was about to speak, Chen Dingdu waved his hand, "Obedient, go to Shenshui Town and wait for me, I can't quarrel with your little junior brother anymore." You are his senior sister, let him order. ”

Gu Shaoyun nodded reluctantly, and followed Wang Dazhuang, who looked unpleasant.

Next to the forest and mountain stream, Wu Xiu was baking a bonfire, drinking mountain stream water, and eating pancakes. The mountain breeze is blowing, some are slightly cool, the shadows of the trees are swaying, some are terrifying, Wu Xiu added a few dead branches, roasted his hands, he looked at the sky, there may be a lot of rain tonight, so he decided not to sleep tonight, wait for a full rest for a while, and start practicing boxing and feet, half of it was given to him by the village master when he was a child, and half of it was in the military middle school, if it is still raining tomorrow, he is not in a hurry, find a small town to live, and wait for the rain to stop before leaving.

After eating the cake, Wu Xiu began to box, and it didn't seem to be too enjoyable to play a set, so he found a tree with roots that were not too thick and not too thin as a target. The tree had really suffered, but it was windy again tonight, otherwise if a passer-by saw the trunk trembling, he would have thought that the boar was in heat and was looking for a tree to vent.

Distance. Dark place. Chen Dingdu hid on the trunk of the tree, looking at this scene, a little uncomfortable.

Is this Jianghu martial artist really energetic and has nowhere to go?

An hour passed, and there was still no intention of stopping, Wu Xiu fought faster and faster, and the moves were strong and heavy, so after another half an hour, Wu Xiu was still tireless, Chen Ding on the trunk was a little tired, but he still looked at Wu Xiu carefully, checked Wu Xiu's breathing method, and wanted to see when he was exhausted. However, he was very disappointed, until the wind and rain crackled and Wu Xiu did not stop, he was a little worried about the tree, with the baptism of wind and rain, Wu Xiu shouted, Chen Ding thought that he was finally going to stop, but Wu Xiu just shouted, but the movement gradually slowed down, and the usual punch and palm hit the trunk of the tree, as if correcting his own way of exerting his own moves, so after another hour, the sound of wind and rain began to gradually stop, Wu Xiu patted the trunk, as if to say thank you to the tree, and then slowly breathed a sigh of relief。

The clothes were half dry and a little uncomfortable, so Wu Xiu took off his clothes, not even his underwear left, and got into the deep wedge, like a swimming fish, so unhappy.

This made Chen Ding, who was squatting on the trunk of the tree, a little embarrassed.

If someone finds out that he is peeking at a naked man taking a bath, I am afraid that his reputation in Cangshanmen will really be ruined in this life, and he will not be able to wash it away after jumping into that deep stream for ten days.

It's just that his legs are a little numb, and squatting on the trunk for two or three hours is really difficult for him.

After Wu Xiu finished taking a bath, he began to wash his clothes in the deep stream, and then began to find some dead branches that were not soaked to continue to make a fire, anyway, there was no one around, and it was dark all around, except for the tree or the tree, the birds on the tree didn't care about it, whether it was a good bird or not, it was a bird anyway. And just like that, a naked man, sitting by the fire, holding two branches, baking clothes.

It's a little cold, and by the way, grilled birds.

Yes, it was a little cold, Chen Dingdu used the exercises to steam and dry the clothes on his body, and the heat surrounded him, just like the clothes that Wu Xiu baked. Chen Dingdu finally moved, and then jumped lightly and landed on the ground in the distance, for fear that he would step on the dead branches and leaves on the ground, only to see that when he hadn't all fallen, he clicked the ground with one foot and swept to the path in the distance. Then he brushed his rain-soaked and steamed-dried hair, and the somewhat wrinkled clothes on his body, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, moistened his throat, and shouted softly: "Wu Shaoxia, are you there?"

After a while, an answer came from the woods, "Yes, please wait." ”

Chen Dingdu smiled, "It's nothing else, it's just that there is a sudden storm, I'm afraid that Wu Shaoxia will have something wrong under my Cangshan Gate." ”

Wu Xiu walked out of the forest, looked over through the faint moonlight, and said with his fists clenched: "Xie Chen Immortal Master is worried, I'm fine." ”

Chen Dingdu said with a smile, "It was wind and rain just now, I don't think Wu Shaoxia is sleepy, why don't you go with me, you go to Liuxia Town, we go to Xudu, before we go to Shenshui Town, we are all on the way." ”

Wu Xiu thought about it for a while and nodded, "It's okay, the wind and rain just now soaked the clothes, and it's almost dawn, so let's go to Shenshui Town to rest first." ”

Chen Dingdu said with a smile: "Then be a companion, it's okay to talk to multiple people on the road." ”
