Chapter Seventy-Six: A Dream Like a Dream (13)
The mountains in the distance were a patch, cyan and a little gray. It was a place that Siyi had never been, and she didn't know what was there.
The man was dressed in a green shirt, looking at it with a smile, quite moved, and it seemed that he had to go to have a look. So Siyi picked up the long sword and said bluntly: "Senior, let's go and have a look." ”
"Yes. The man nodded, his eyes showed a little excitement, but he was not in a hurry, but came to Siyi's side, put his arm on his shoulder, and a burst of light flashed, and the two of them disappeared.
The two appeared in front of the door of the grass hut, and the man entered the house, took out an old oil-paper umbrella and a rope belt, and handed the rope belt over, "Carry this sword behind your back, don't always hold it in your hand, make such a mess." ”
Siyi nodded, then took it and tied it to her shoulder. At this time, the man stretched out the oil-paper umbrella, came to Siyi's side, and said casually: "It's always raining in that place, so it's better to bring this umbrella." ”
The man's umbrella is very shabby, but very clean, and there is no dirt or oil spots, but it gives people an elegant feeling, and inadvertently looks up, it turns out that the umbrella surface of this umbrella is also depicted with a pattern, the content is on the side of the broken bridge in the West Lake, a woman holding an umbrella is waiting for the story, and the poem is mentioned in the book.
The poem reads: The rain rides the impermanence of the wind, but it is a pity that there is a lover
The shadow of the bridge is lonely, looking forward to the promise of the king.
Seeing such verses, Siyi couldn't help laughing, he didn't expect the man to have such a past, thinking of himself as a strong man all day long, and thinking that he really had such a proud feeling. When the man heard the laughter, he glanced at him dissatisfiedly, and said lightly: "Everyone has a young age. ”
With that, he took Siyi's figure and went to the birthplace of the voice.
The two of them appeared at a cliff, and as soon as they appeared, Siyi immediately felt the fresh smell of rain rushing into his nose, making him feel refreshed after a long time. The slender figure of the man held an umbrella aloft, and Siyi also stood in it. The rain in front of them kept falling, hitting the oil-paper umbrella, crackling, and the two of them looked down quietly.
The situation in the valley below was clear at a glance, there was an old man in black, standing solemnly on a rock, countless rains fell on him, but it could not wet his clothes at all, a silver hair was turned back to the back of his head, and he held a burnt yellow cane in his hand, and his eyes were deeply sunk into his sockets and looked at him quietly. There was a dark green toad in front of him, as big as a millstone, and after a few unwilling grunts, it finally collapsed with a bang.
Seeing the toad lying in the rain, the old man seemed to be extremely satisfied, so he slowly walked down the boulder with his cane, ready to collect the body. Suddenly, as if he felt something, he raised his head and looked at the two Siyi on the cliff.
The old man's eyes were like stars in the night, and he glanced at Si Yi with a flickering look, but he quickly diverted his gaze, because he found that Si Yi was just a mortal, and he didn't care at all, but the young man next to him, handsome, but his eyes were as deep as the stars, and he didn't hide or dodge, and looked at him.
In the air, the rain fell chaotically, hitting the rocks, making a "popping" sound, the old man and the man looked at each other silently, for a while, the atmosphere was quiet and uncomfortable. Finally, the old man snorted, took a step back, immediately supported his body with a cane, closed his eyes for a long time, and stood in place, obviously suffering a dark loss.
The man was as calm as ever, holding an umbrella, and asked, "Siyi, do you know what the toad below says?"
Siyi nodded: "Toad, also known as toad, is usually tailless, has pimples on its back, smells fishy, and poisonous. However, toad clothes and toad crisps can be used as medicine, clearing heat and detoxifying, avoiding all evils, reducing swelling and relieving pain. In the valley below, the toad is different from the ordinary, called 'water toad', also commonly known as 'water toad', it is rare in the world, it has great magical powers, has the art of water escape, is born with a tail, and is good at swimming, digging soil, born in the place where water and gas gather all year round. Like ordinary toads, whenever lightning and thunder roar, it is necessary to shed the clothes once, before it eats into the abdomen, take it off, you can obtain a complete toad clothes, the effect is very good, can solve all kinds of fiery poison, it is really a first-class medicine of heaven and earth. ”
These allusions are recorded in the books at home, which is difficult to think, but this water toad is usually in the world, and it has been hunted and killed by cultivators, and most of them have become extinct, and I don't want to meet one here, and this old man came to this dangerous place to hunt and kill this thing, it seems that there must be someone important around him who has been poisoned by fire and needs this toad clothes to save his life and detoxify.
The man was very satisfied, and when he wanted to say something more, Siyi suddenly said "Huh?", the man was quite surprised, and looked at him: "What's wrong?"
Siyi pointed to the old man's chest, on the chest of the black robe, there was a dragon flying and phoenix dancing "reverse", and said: "He is the predecessor of the reverse door." ”
"Oh?" the man looked at curiously: "Is that what you said about the current mortal world, the reverse gate of one of the four sects of the Demon Dao?"
"Yes, exactly. Siyi replied affirmatively, this is not a fraud, the chest mark of the reverse door has always been written in cursive in hot stamping font, and the word "reverse" is a big one, which everyone in the rivers and lakes knows.
The old man below slowly opened his eyes at this time, and said with endless majesty: "Reverse Gate Guyan, I haven't consulted Daoist friends yet, ......"
"Gu Yan?" Si Yi was shocked in his heart, the people of the ancient character generation had already retired in the reverse gate, it seemed that this person was not an ordinary identity, at least he was also an elder who had been in seclusion for many years.
The man smiled faintly: "Blue Valley, unnamed swordsman." ”
"Blue Valley?" The old man was stunned, lowered his head, and thought for a long time, but he couldn't remember what place called Blue Valley was on the land of Shenzhou, and there was a great supernatural person who couldn't see through himself.
Seeing the old man's embarrassment, Si Yi was amused in his heart, even if you want to break through the sky in this blue valley, you naturally don't know that the thinking of the world is so narrow, only the way is foreign, I didn't think that there are aboriginal inhabitants in these two poles.
However, the old man is not an idle person, but after a while, it suddenly dawned on him, presumably this person is a loose cultivator, from the wilderness and forests, so he habitually raised his hand to salute, sold a smile, and said: "Look up for a long time." ”
The man nodded, and didn't say much, the old man was a little unhappy in his heart, more surprised, you must know that after this cultivator has achieved cultivation, his appearance can no longer explain everything, but the etiquette between peers is still indispensable, he raised his hand to salute first, and the man was not moved, it can only show that he is his predecessor, it seems that this person should not be underestimated.
Siyi didn't think so much about it at this time, but thought about whether the man was going to behead the old man under the sword, and there was going to be an earth-shattering battle. Who thought that the man did not mean this, but shook his head and said, "You can go." ”
The old man and Siyi were stunned, Siyi's stunned was stunned because the man suddenly changed his sex, and the old man's stunned was stunned at how the man said something like this inexplicably, could it be that he was ready to do it with himself from the beginning?
Although it is a demon way, but the old man is also a person who is very deep in the city, seeing the current situation, he raised his hand, "In this case, I will go, he will have a fate, we will see you again." ”
"Wait!" the man suddenly shouted, "I have heard for a long time that the 'Shun and Rebellion' technique is famous all over the world, and when you are healed, we will fight to the death again." With that, as soon as he raised his hand, a sword qi dragon chant rose into the sky, crossed the nine clouds, and sang between heaven and earth.
The old man of Gu Yan was shocked in his heart, his own injury was very obscure, he could actually see it? But speaking of which, it was also his own bad luck, in order to save the descendants of the door, he came to these two poles, and he was not prepared at all, who knew that this place was strangely tight, and the aura of heaven and earth could not nourish the body, the old man took a breath and came here to kill this. Scoop the water toad', but the aura in the body has long been green and yellow, and the water toad has only been fighting for a while, and he can actually hurt this beast, and after it's easy to finish, he is ready to leave, who would have thought that such two people would appear again.
However, when he saw the sword qi emitted by the man, he knew that it was a sword cultivator, when this Gu Yan was young, he roamed the rivers and lakes and had a wide range of knowledge, and he knew immediately that this was a sword cultivator with iron bones and hard swords. At that moment, the crutches knocked on the ground, making a dull sound, and the eardrums of the people who were shocked by the "dong ......" were beating, and the old man swept the state of the dragon bell, as if he had regained his former demeanor, and responded with pride: "Okay, just a 'between good and bad', how dare you show off in front of people, when he recovers from his injury, the old man must come and separate male and female with Taoist friends." ”
The man nodded, holding an umbrella in one hand and pointing at Siyi in the other, and said: "This child's name is Chu Xunyu, in a few years, he will travel the world, at that time, Daoyou really wants to be with me for a long time, so just go to find him." Siyi rolled his eyes for a while, what kind of mess is this, he pushed himself out so inexplicably, and pushed it in front of such an old monster, he hasn't come out of the poles yet, so he will set up a reverse opponent for himself first.
The old man glanced at Siyi and nodded, "Chu Xunyu, right? I remember, okay, the coming day is long, and when I recover from my injury, I will definitely come to this kid to lead the way and have a good time fighting with my fellow Daoists, so I will go first." With that, he carried the body of the water toad, and the figure slowly disappeared in the rain.
"Do you know why?" the man asked, holding an oil-paper umbrella, looking into the distance in the blurred vision of the rain.
"Yes. Siyi nodded, "The seniors saw that he was injured, so they would not surrender their identity to take advantage of the danger of others, so they had to wait for him to recover from his injury, and then they were fighting to win or lose." ”
The man nodded, still looking into the distance, and said slowly: "This is what I want to teach you, fairness, the swordsman must have a fair heart, to treat any opponent, take advantage of the danger of others, that kind of ninth-rate means, how dare you speak of the sword." ”
The rain is still disturbing, and the sky here seems to be crying all the time......
