Slowly Mountains and Seas Chapter 14: Another Farewell

Wu Xiu and the little ghost boy went out of the south gate all the way to the south, and there were even more sergeants patrolling on the Chaotian Road than pedestrians, and among the pedestrians, they also had to be the kind of plainclothes martial marquis, and when they saw people who were unpleasant or suspicious, they had to come forward to inquire and investigate.

In the next month, Xu Ducheng will be more intense than ever. During this time, there were too many people from Wei to watch the ceremony, including some of the top mountain forces, and some of the martial arts families under the mountain, these people together are like fire and gunpowder together, and there will be a lot of moths at any time, in order to present an auspicious scene to the world, the city guards of Xudu can be said to have racked their brains, fortunately, the King of Wei and the Qingliu Pavilion have some deep intersections, it is said that the director of the Qingliu Pavilion was invited to sit in the entire Xudu, and there was finally a reassurance in the matter.

On the South Mountain, it is a little deserted, the inn led by the little ghost boy is on the mountainside, the inn is very large, and the rooms are also far away, all in the shade of the trees, which seems to be particularly isolated from the world, but it is really not cheap, three taels of silver a day, listen to the shopkeeper, if it is the peak season, it will take five taels. Because the people who come to live here are the children of some wealthy families and popular literati.

After paying the money, led by a shopkeeper, the inn built on the mountainside, the winding path is secluded, and next to a small waterfall, there is a small attic held up by a tree stump, called Tingshui Pavilion. Listening to the water pavilion in this inn is the kind of medium room, the best should be in a higher place, you can overlook most of the capital city.

After taking the key, the shopkeeper smiled and said: "The guest officer lives with peace of mind, if you want to see the scenery of Nanshan, you can continue to climb the mountain, and at the viewing platform on the top of the mountain, you can also see the entire Xudu City." ”

"I'm tired. ”

The little ghost boy walked up the steps and opened the door for Wu Xiu, and the layout of the whole room was relatively elegant.

You can concentrate on cultivation, and Wu Xiu is more satisfied.

The little ghost boy went down the mountain with the sunset, and when he left, he said that when the house was completed, he would definitely bring his sister to visit Wu Xiu. Wu Xiu joked at the time that he would not go down the mountain for the rest of his life, and he would send a congratulatory gift on the day the house was completed and put on the beam.

Wu Xiu slowly climbed the mountain after the little ghost boy left. He was greeted by people descending the mountain, and by the time he reached the observation deck at the top of the mountain, half of the sunset had already fallen. Overlooking the city of Xudu, you can see the magnificent atmosphere of the city wall from afar, under the reflection of the sunset, the whole Xudu is bathed in the glow, with the smoke curling everywhere at this time, there is an auspicious appearance. Looking further north, you can't see it squarely, that's where the imperial city is, and you can only see that place, glowing with golden light everywhere.

Wu Xiu began to box, boxing on a one-man observation deck.

At the top of the mountain, the wind howled, blowing his clothes and hunting.

He threw punches at will, there was no discipline to speak of, but every time the punch reached, there was an explosion sound.

This is supposed to be the sound of colliding with the wind.

Until the lights of Xu Ducheng were turned on, Wu Xiu began to restrain his fist intent, breathe slowly, and then looked at the big city on earth, motionless, and fell into deep thought, like a strong pine standing on the top of a mountain.

When his stomach rumbled, Wu Xiu went down the mountain in the dark, finished eating at the inn, and returned to his room. After resting for a while, he began to see him again through the method of internal vision. Then, he opened up two more acupoints, one hundred and eight yin and yang acupoints, and now there are still twelve acupuncture points that are still occluded. So next, he boxed during the day and worked hard to open his acupuncture at night.

Senior Hong once said that no matter whether it is to the junction or not, the dry dantian pond should also be able to gather into water, no matter how much, there should be a trace of moistness, but his acupuncture has been opened ninety, and there is still no rain and dew in the dantian, he doesn't know if this life really stops at the realm of opening acupoints.

This disappointed him a little.

About half a month later, one evening, Wu Xiu slowly descended from the top of the mountain, and before he arrived at the Tingshui Pavilion, he saw the little ghost boy and Ling'er sitting on the steps in front of the attic talking, and saw Wu Xiu from a distance, and the little ghost boy stood up and said hello.

Wu Xiu asked, "The house has been repaired?"

The little ghost boy replied: "It's repaired, Ling'er said that I must invite you to sit at home, so I'm here to invite you." ”

Wu Xiu smiled: "No problem, when will it be on the beam?"

The little ghost scratched his head and said: "It's free to go to the beam, it's not a new house to build, just eat a meal together." ”

Wu Xiu nodded, "It's okay, it's time to go down the mountain after calculating the time, I'll go down the mountain with you today." ”

Ling'er smiled happily and said with a smile: "The stove hasn't started yet, just wait for Boss Wu to go home and cook the first meal!"

Wu Xiu finished taking the account, and the three of them went down the mountain, and it was already late at night when they arrived at the little ghost boy's new home. The small courtyard is now located very decently, although it is not big, but it does have a taste of home, although the furniture is not gorgeous, it is also complete and practical. Of course, it was Wu Xiu who cooked, Ling'er studied very seriously on the side, and after cooking, the three of them ate on the newly built small stone table on the side of the courtyard, and also drank some wine to celebrate. After eating, Wu Xiu rested in the collapsed and oversized hut, the bed was made of the remnants of the previous clods, covered with dry grass and a brand new mattress, and it was very comfortable to sleep on.

It was already April 15, and the Zen ceremony a few days ago had ended, and Emperor Wei Xiong Xin named the first emperor Xiong You as the Marquis of Fengshan. Fengshan County, located in the northern frontier of the Great Wei territory, belongs to the poor mountains and remote land, and most of the residents are uncivilized mountain people, and further north of Fengshan County is the 100,000 mountains between the Zhao State and the Wei State. That mountain stretched from the northwest to the northeast of the Wei state.

With the existence of this natural barrier, there has never been a war between Wei and Zhao for thousands of years. This has nothing to do with the ambitions of those in power, because that barrier may not be able to pass through even those who have cultivated to the advanced level or the great masters of martial arts.

From chatting with Chen Dingdu that day, I learned that the world is so big, and what Wu Xiu has seen may only be one or two ten-thousandths, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a frog at the bottom of the well. Not to mention the eastern countries, let's just say that west of the Yangyang Sea, there is the territory of the Three Kingdoms, and there is the vast sea of snow bordering the Zhao State. Therefore, Chen Dingdu said that day that his ideal is to cultivate to a certain realm, take a good walk in this world, and then improve the "General Record of the World" in the sect that only knows its name but does not know the details.

Chen Dingdu also asked Wu Xiu what his ideals were that day, and Wu Xiu said that he wanted to have a home, have his own concerns, and live a peaceful and stable life, but he also said that these ideals could not be realized for the time being, because he still had a lot of things to do, such as killing people, and he also said that only by removing the obstacles on the way to his ideals could he sleep peacefully in his bed at home.

Chen Dingdu sighed at the time: The god of fate has been secretly arranging each of our lives, and we just can't detect it.

In the second half of the night, Wu Xiu really couldn't sleep, so he got up and boxed in the small courtyard to calm down.

It's a soft and light punch, just to move the muscles and bones, so it's not noisy.

In half a month, Wu Xiu opened the acupoints quickly, as if he had used up all the energy he had accumulated for many years after he learned the method of opening acupoints, and now there are still two acupoints left that have not been opened, and there is not even a little movement, that he broke through three times, and returned every time, after each failure, Wu Xiu was like a very serious injury, and even his fist intent was weakened a little. Therefore, Wu Xiu will no longer be reckless, he is waiting, waiting for the kind of energy and opportunity that can open two holes in one go.

For the rest of the day, Wu Xiu just sat in the small courtyard every day. In addition to three meals a day, it is sleeping.

The enthronement ceremony of King Wei is approaching, and the city of Xudu is full of lights, and the three religions and nine streams from all over the country gather here. The little ghost boy said that these days are like the Shangyuan Festival, even more prosperous and lively than the annual Shangyuan Festival, and the first day of the fifth month is the peak of this grand event, it is said that from the beginning of May, there is no curfew for three consecutive days.

But Wu Xiu was destined not to feel it.

Tonight's meal is made by Ling'er according to the gourd painting scoop, three dishes and one soup are very similar, but the taste is very unique, the little ghost boy and Wu Xiu eat as much as possible without changing color, the little ghost boy put down the bowl, saying that he was full, he asked: "Tomorrow Hanshan Geji's float will enter the city, do you want to take a look?"

Wu Xiu asked, "From Hanshan County?"

Although Ling'er is young, she is delicate, and she chirped: "What is there to see, it is better to go and see the spell of the Hongcheng talisman, I heard that as soon as the rune paper flies, the silver money in the sky is like rain, and you can't win by picking it up!"

But tomorrow is already April 20th, and it is the day when Wu Xiu leaves to say goodbye, "I won't go, I'll leave early tomorrow morning." ”

The little ghost boy immediately asked, "When will you come back?"

Wu Xiu said: "I don't know. But I'll definitely come back to see you when I have the chance. ”

And then no one spoke.

The next day, the little ghost boy and Ling'er got up before dawn, when Wu Xiu got up, he only saw that they were standing straight in the middle of the yard, and the blind horse next to the little ghost boy who was fostered in the inn was served very well during this time, his hair was shiny, and his muscles were a little thicker, where he was also standing, and looked at Wu Xiu in a daze.

The little ghost boy was the first to speak: "You have something big to do, so Ling'er and I both know that we can't keep you, so let's send you out of the city." ”

Still out of the south gate, the door was as lively as ever, waiting to enter the city of cars and horses have lined up. On the road to heaven, the little ghost boy silently led the horse and walked in front, Ling'er pulled the corner of the little ghost boy's clothes, and Wu Xiu looked at the two of them from behind. Seeing that it was already three miles away from the city gate, Wu Xiu smiled and said, "What, where do you want to send me?"

He had no choice but to walk over and take the horse rope, "Alright, you two go home, remember, live well." ”

The little ghost boy was about to kneel down with the bell, but was stopped by Wu Xiu, "Do you think it makes sense to kowtow to me?"

Wu Xiu patted the little ghost boy on the shoulder, "I'm not a good person, nor are I those rich people, and I don't sympathize with you or pity you." I help you because one day in the future, I will go to Xudu again, and I can have one more friend who drinks together, and the wine money is, of course, paid by the host. ”

The little ghost boy immediately grinned, "Don't worry, next time you come to Xudu, I will invite you to drink the best wine in Xudu!"

Wu Xiu fastened the cowhide wrap on the horse and quipped: "Then you have to work hard, I heard that the best wine in Xu Du costs a pot of more than ten taels of silver! ”

Ling'er's eyes widened, pinched her fingers, and said in surprise: "Isn't that seventy or eighty taels?"

Wu Xiu looked at him, "What, reluctantly?"

Ling'er looked up at Wu Xiu, turned her hands behind her back, straightened her chest and said, "Why are you drinking so expensive, didn't you still drink sweet wine last time with a hundred Wen and one jar!"

Wu Xiu squatted down and nodded Ling'er's forehead, "What a little money fan! As he spoke, he stretched out his little thumb and hooked it.

Ling'er happily stretched out her little thumb, pursed her mouth, and blinked her big black and white flawless eyes, "Hang yourself on the hook, you must not change for a hundred years!"

This is far away, whether it is a blessing or a curse, a murder or an auspiciousness, life or death. Wu Xiu didn't know.

Looking at the back of the little ghost boy and Ling'er returning to the city hand in hand, Wu Xiu left Chaotian Road and walked in the direction of the east gate.
