The Young Man in White Chapter 3 Money is a foreign thing
Rotten Ke Mountain, also known as Xianren Mountain, is located in the southeast of Fenghua Town. This mountain is about 100 zhang high, four miles long from east to west, and two miles wide from north to south. The mountains are full of peaks and mountains, and the scenery is extremely secluded. At the foot of the mountain, it is surrounded by clear streams, flows out of the west side of the river in the west of Langkeshan, and joins the Wuxi River in the north. It can be said that the mountains are pleasant and the wind is hidden, and the water is gathered. In the eyes of ordinary people, it is also a relatively good feng shui treasure.
But in the eyes of monk Chen Yijian, such a mountain could not be incorporated into his eyes. As for the four words of feng shui treasure in the mouths of the people, in his opinion, he just smiled lightly and did not say anything.
However, a legend about this mountain heard from the mouths of the people in the town made Chen Yijian feel very interesting in his heart.
According to the people of the town, a long time ago, they couldn't say when it was early, but they only knew that at that time the mountain was only called Rotten Ke Mountain. The world is not like it is now, with wars raging and wolf smoke everywhere. The people of the town are living a stable and peaceful life, and the men and women are weaving. Every once in a while, the men of the small town can go down to the water to catch a fish, go to the mountains to catch some game to improve their food, or something.
Among them, especially a man named Wang Qian. That's even better at that. Ordinary people go up the mountain and go down the water, and they can get a week's worth of food a day, which is already quite powerful. He is the only one, every time he goes into the mountains and waters, he gets the most wild meat in the town. Later, someone asked him how he did it, and it was clear that everyone was a mountain in and a mountain out. Once or twice more than us, it means that you are lucky, and we can figure it out. But you have more than us every time, and so much more than us every time, which makes us really incomprehensible.
After hearing this, Wang Zhen couldn't help laughing, looked at the men who entered the mountain with him and asked, "I want to know why?"
Of course, everyone else said yes.
Then Wang Zhen told everyone about his experience.
It turned out that once when Wang Zhen went into the mountains alone to catch wild meat, just as he was about to catch a hare, he suddenly heard the sound of someone laughing in his ears. took advantage of the situation, and also frightened the prey he was about to hold. At that time, Wang Zhen was unhappy in his heart, thinking to himself, Lao Tzu finally saw a fat rabbit, and he could eat a fat rabbit meat at night, but he didn't expect that the fat meat in his mouth could also slip. The more I thought about it, the more annoyed I became, so I took out the firewood knife behind my back and rushed over in the direction from which the voice came.
But when he came to the place where the sound came from, he was shocked by the scene in front of him. I saw that under a naturally formed stone arch bridge, there were two 'old men' with white hair but a childish face, each holding black and white chess pieces, and they fell in front of them out of thin air. And beside the old man, there were two cranes with white wings.
Seeing the sudden arrival of Wang Qian, the two old men who were playing chess stopped and looked at Wang Zheng together. One of them smiled at him and asked, "Is there something wrong with the strong man?"
At that time, Wang Zhen's whole person was shocked, where else did he have any other thoughts. As soon as his legs were weak, he knelt down, and honestly told the two old men all his things.
When the old man heard this, he couldn't help laughing. said: "Blame us, blame us." disturbed the strong man's prey, and caused the strong man's fat to slip away. In this way, I will teach you a craft, and after you learn it, you can bury it every time you enter the mountain. ”
As soon as the words fell, Wang Zhen felt that his eyes were blooming. Look again, where is there an old man's crane in front of him. I had to get up from the ground, pat my clothes and go down the mountain.
Then, it appeared that every time Wang Zhen entered the mountain, he caught the most wild meat in the town.
Thinking of this, Chen Yijian couldn't help but show an interesting smile on his face. looked up at the Rotten Keshan in front of him, and said with a smile: "It's also called Rotten Keshan, it's the same immortal who was encountered by mortals playing chess, and it's also called Wang Qian." This is a bit interesting, could it be that this Rotten Ke Mountain was moved from Dongsheng Divine Continent by someone with great magical powers?"
"How is it possible, Poor Dao has just come from Dongsheng Divine Continent, and I haven't heard that the Rotten Ke Mountain over there has been removed. Suddenly, a voice sounded in Chen Yijian's ears, startling Chen Yijian, who was talking to himself.
When he turned his head suddenly, he saw that there was an extra person on his left hand side. This man was dressed in a shabby robe, his face was covered with wind and dust, his long hair was pulled up on the top of his head, and a dead branch was inserted in his hand that he had picked up from the side of the road. Behind his back was a long sword, rusty, but without a scabbard.
With just one glance, Chen Yijian was sure that this person was at least a thirteenth-floor monk, and he was also a sword cultivator who was one of the several monks with extremely killing power.
However, Chen Yijian did not have any nervousness in his heart, but instead scolded the Taoist priest with a very dissatisfied look on his face: "Fuck you, scare Lao Tzu for a while." ”
Seeing Chen Yijian's complaint, the Taoist priest couldn't help but smile a little embarrassed and said: "I'm really sorry, I'm really sorry, the poor Dao is not intentional." The poor surname is the king, and the king who becomes the king and loses the king. is a Taoist priest, you can call me Wang Xuance. ”
Chen Yijian rolled his eyes: "Did I ask what your name is?"
The Taoist priest was stunned for a moment, and said with an embarrassed smile: "May I ask what the young man is called?"
Chen Yijian continued to roll his eyes, but learned the self-introduction of a Taoist priest: "My surname is Chen, Chen of King Wu Zheng of Zhou." is a poor man who carries stones and tripods in all directions, you can call me Chen Yijian. ”
The Taoist priest didn't mind that Chen Yijian deliberately learned his own way of speaking, after learning Chen Yijian's name. He stepped forward and chatted with Chen Yijian: "I heard Chen Shaoxia just now that the name of this mountain is not only the same as the one in Dongsheng Shenzhou, but even the deeds that have been circulated are exactly the same, I don't know what Chen Shaoxia thinks about this?"
Chen Yijian's personality is the kind of optimistic self-familiar, and when he meets Wang Xuance, a Taoist priest who is also self-familiar, where will he still think about the unhappiness when he first met.
Without continuing to roll his eyes at the Taoist priest, Chen Yijian thought for a long time before replying, "Then who knows!"
The Taoist priest saw Chen Yijian pondering there for a long time, and originally thought that he would say something big. Unexpectedly, Chen Yijian came to such a sentence in the end, and he almost choked to death by a mouthful of old phlegm. Pretending to clear his throat, Taoist priest Wang Xuance turned to ask with some curiosity: "Brother Chen, what is the use of carrying a big stone on your back?"
Chen Yijian glanced at him and said very mysteriously: "Guess!"
Wang Xuance learned from Chen Yijian's appearance just now, and thought for a long time before saying, "Then who knows!"
Chen Yijian looked at Wang Xuance, and Wang Xuance also looked at Chen Yijian. Neither of them spoke, and after a long while, the two of them suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed. While laughing, Chen Yijian said, "You Taoist priest is interesting. ”
Wang Xuance also laughed and said: "You poor man who carries a stone on his back is also interesting. ”
Hearty laughter is heard in this somewhat bleak wilderness. It brings a touch of warmth to this desolate place.
Almost at the same time, the laughter of the two stopped.
Chen Yijian looked at Taoist priest Wang Xuance and asked, "Let's go around the mountain together?"
Wang Xuance smiled and nodded: "Okay!"
The mountains are hundreds of feet high, but they are not steep. The winding path is blocked by potholes and thorns. But for Chen Yijian and Wang Xuance, who are also cultivators, it is not an obstacle.
The two talked and laughed along the way, and soon the two came to the top of Lanke Mountain. And the naturally formed stone arch bridge also came into the eyes of the two. There is nothing peculiar about it, it is just a natural stone arch bridge.
But I don't know why, looking at this stone arch bridge, Wang Xuance suddenly frowned.
Chen Yijian couldn't help but be a little curious, and asked him, "What's wrong, is there anything wrong?"
Wang Xuance shook his head, tilted his head and said, "I can't tell where there is a problem, but I always feel that there is a problem in my heart." ”
Chen Yijian was stunned.
In his cognition, there are thousands of monks in the world, and each monk takes a different path. Among them, there is a mysterious and mysterious road. As long as they walk on this path, they will have an indescribable perception of some mysterious existences between heaven and earth. And most of the people who walked this road were Taoist priests.
So after listening to Wang Xuance's words, Chen Yijian thought about it in his heart. He put the big stone on his back on the ground with the big tripod on his shoulder, and walked towards the stone arch bridge.
Wang Xuance wanted to open his mouth to stop it, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back.
Chen Yijian's footsteps did not deliberately slow down, and he walked to the stone arch bridge so naturally. I chose a place that looked relatively different from the others, and reached out and rubbed it gently. Aside from being cold and rough to the touch, there's nothing unusual about it at all.
Wang Xuance's loose brows furrowed again, and he muttered softly: "Am I wrong?"
Chen Yijian shrugged his shoulders and said that you really read it wrong. He turned around and was about to walk back, but suddenly stopped the next moment. The body that had just turned back turned turned to the stone arch bridge again, looked at the place he had touched just now, and laughed heartily: "The surname is Wang, it's okay!"
Wang Xuance also laughed heartily, and his frowning brows were completely relaxed: "Brother Chen has won the award, and you have to rely on Brother Chen's eyes to find out." ”
Chen Yijian was not polite, laughed and accepted the compliment from Taoist priest Wang Xuance. Then I saw him pull the long knife from his waist from its sheath, and slash it on the stone arch bridge with a very sharp and sharp sword.
"Huh!" There was a soft sound, and the stone arch bridge was like a bridge made of paper, breaking into two from the place where it was touched by Chen Yijian. Because the speed and strength of Chen Yijian's sword were very exquisite, the stone arch bridge was cut off. But except for the one that fell, there was no sign of collapse in other places, and it was still hanging firmly in the air.
From the knife to the knife, Chen Yijian's movements were completed in one go, without any sense of stagnation. At this time, there was an extra piece of black iron the size of a palm in his hand.
Seeing the iron block in Chen Yijian's hand, Wang Xuance asked with a smile, "Could it be that Brother Chen can refine weapons?"
Chen Yijian smiled and shook his head: "Of course not!", but the purpose of my trip is to find these things. ”
Wang Xuance was stunned for a moment, and the things he said were also the essence of heaven and earth. But it seems that there is no other use except for refining weapons, right? If Chen Yijian is a refiner and has come out to find these materials, then it is understandable. But didn't he say it himself, he doesn't know how to refine weapons. Could it be that he was looking for these materials and then selling them to refiners at a high price to make a fortune?
Also, if these materials were sold to those refiners, it would be a good way to make a fortune. Otherwise, I will also make a mess, maybe with a bit of luck, I can really make a rich man on the rich side.
Thinking of this, Wang Xuance's originally decent face became a little obscene. Staring at the piece of black iron in Chen Yijian's hand, Wang Xuance smiled more and more brightly and said, "Brother Chen, can I discuss something with you?"
Chen Yijian glanced at Wang Xuance, shook his head very dryly, and said, "No." ”
Wang Xuance did not have the slightest feeling of loss: "You take the big head, I take the small head." ”
Chen Yijian was stunned for a moment, then jumped up and scolded: "Fuck you, are you Lao Tzu for money? Lao Tzu is a person with pursuits, how can he be driven by money, do you think I seem to be driven by money?"
Wang Xuance nodded, and then shook his head desperately. said with a righteous face: "Of course not, of course not." Money is something outside the body, and it is not brought by life or by death. Not necessarily, not necessarily. ”
After a pause, Wang Xuance once again showed that obscene expression and said, "But if you give enough money, you can still make an exception!"
Chen Yijian: "Get out!"
