Chapter 94: Wind and Rain
On this day, Lu Ye found an opportunity to hand over the letter that Chen Fahu had conveyed to Xiao Mochang alone.
Xiao Mochang took it and examined it for a long time, and then asked, "Does the Law Tiger say anything else?"
Chen Zhenren said that he had no face to return to the Hanging Heaven Temple, and he could only go overseas with the Blue Lotus Demon Queen and never come out. ”
Xiao Mochang held the letter in his hand, and said with a smile: "The wings are stiff, fly when you say fly, and leave when you say you go." When you go overseas, do you have face? It made Lu Gongzi smile. ”
Lu Ye was amazed that Lao Dao could be so calm, according to common sense, shouldn't he shout a few times "rebel"? Looking at his slightly trembling robe sleeves again, it must have forcibly suppressed the turbulent waves in his heart, that is, he was just calm on the surface. Also, an apprentice who had placed high hopes on him and worked hard to cultivate for decades suddenly gave up his pursuit of the way of heaven, regardless of the difference between immortals and demons, and flew with a demon girl, how different was it from fleeing from the sect?
Until now, the old Taoist priest has been able to stand calmly without changing his complexion, and he is really self-contained.
Accompanied all the way from Ningzhou Mansion, Lu Ye's perception of the Hanging Sky View has changed a lot. At first, Lu Ye was very angry because Yan Mochan injured Shang Jiahe, but after coming into contact with the master and apprentice of the Hanging Heaven Temple these days, he found that the reason why the famous family is famous and decent is somewhat reasonable.
Chen Fahu's master Xiao Mochang and Fu Roujia's master Li Molian, two true immortals who have been cultivating for hundreds of years, are introverted and low-key in their understanding of the world, although they are a little stereotyped, but they act above board, and they are not pretentious and impersonal antiques;
As he was pondering, Xiao Mochang suddenly smiled and said, "Master Lu, please forgive me for being presumptuous." These days, I have been paying close attention to it, and I have found that your kung fu is quite distinctive, although it is not all inherited from Pang Tianjun's mastery, but the cultivation is extremely solid and vigorous, which can be said to be the only one in your life. However, there may still be minor flaws in some places, perhaps because of differences in the understanding and understanding of the exercises. Poor Dao didn't dare to show off in front of Pang Tianjun, but he liked to make some cultivation notes since he was a child, and some of his personal insights could be used as a reference for Lu Gongzi, and he had the right to throw bricks and lead jade. ”
He was not familiar with Lu Ye, and his words were tactful and polite. Lu Ye knew about his family's affairs, and he couldn't help but scream in shame.
The foundation of his childhood was all laid by his father's teachings, and later he cultivated the Twenty-One Sutra Palm, the Tianji Sword Sutra, and the Zhou Tian Sword Spectrum. But in the past three years, without his father's guidance, most of the time he has been groping and comprehending on his own, although he can occasionally get the guidance of people such as Gu Sanshu and others, but after all, it is not a system.
Elder Xiao Mo and Mi Jian's eyes were vicious, and it was a sharp shot that poked at Lu Ye's sore spot.
Lao Dao saw that Lu Ye didn't speak, and he had a bottom in his heart. He got up with a smile and walked to the table, spread out the paper scroll on the desk, sharpened the ink and said, "Poor Dao will transcribe a copy, if there is any obscurity in it, just discuss it with Lu Gongzi." In this way, the boat sails on the river, and you and I sit and talk about it, and it is not too fast. ”
Lu Ye knew that this was Xiao Mochang's gratitude for sending a letter to Chen Fahu, and he wanted to repay the favor. But this favor is not gold, silver and jewelry, nor is it immortal soldiers, but the result of the lifelong practice of the old Tao. This is not an ordinary icing on the cake, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a four-word charcoal in the snow.
Seeing Lao Dao neatly and slowly writing the four words "Ink Long Pen" in small letters at the frontispiece, Lu Ye was pleasantly surprised, his gratitude was indescribable, and he stood behind him respectfully to observe and be taught.
In this way, one old and one young, one wrote and one learned, one asked and one answered, and was locked up in the cabin for four days and four nights, and the "Ink Long Brush" with more than 7,000 words was completed.
Lu Ye felt refreshed and refreshed like he had never felt before when he came out of the cabin, and a Dao heart was crystal clear from the inside out.
Two days later, a disciple of the Hanging Heaven Temple, Yu Jian, arrived and presented a handwritten letter from Yan Mochan, the master of the temple, to the two elders, Xiao Mochang and Li Molian.
Xiao Mochang read the letter and didn't say anything, handed the letterhead to Li Molian, and walked up to the bow of the boat with his hands in his hands to look at the river scenery.
Chen Douyu asked, "Uncle Li, what does my master have to explain?"
Li Mo smiled bitterly and said, "The Dharma Tiger has returned to the mountain." ”
"What?" everyone was stunned.
Chen Douyu was puzzled: "Didn't he go overseas with the Blue Lotus Demon Queen, why did he suddenly turn around, what happened?"
Li Mo said: "The letter of the master did not make it clear, only said that the Fahu was alone and took the guilt of Jing pleading, from the Wangxian Pavilion at the foot of Sanqing Mountain, it took three days and two nights to knock all the way to the front of the Taiqing Palace, and now the senior brother in charge has put him under house arrest in Jiashiyu to listen to the fate. Because Fahu is a disciple of Senior Brother Xiao, Senior Brother in charge specially ordered someone to send a message to inform the matter of the sword. ”
You Long was surprised: "What about the Blue Lotus Demon Queen Water Hibiscus, where is she?"
The so-called impermeable wall in the world is not impermeable, and the story of Chen Fahu, a disciple of the Hanging Heaven Guanyan, and Shui Furong, the eldest disciple of the head of Weiyang Palace, who eloped halfway, is spreading, and there are various versions of legends. But it is not known who leaked the news and deliberately spread it.
Li Mo said in a low voice: "Perhaps, spreading this matter out to force the Fahu to be obedient is also the means of the demon girl." ”
Lu Ye asked, "Why don't we speed up the trip, or ask Elder Xiao Imperial Sword to take the first step?"
Xiao Mo said in a deep voice on the bow of the boat: "No need, the poor road is not in a hurry for half a month's work, Jiashiyu is just a good place to clear your heart and calm your mind!"
Everyone looked at each other and said no more, but invisibly quietly accelerated the trip. Originally, it took half a month to travel, and finally arrived at the Wangxian Pavilion at the foot of Sanqing Mountain in the afternoon of the tenth day.
Everyone else is fine, but along the way, they have eaten and slept in the open air, and the five trial disciples who went up the mountain this time have suffered. Especially the youngest little jar, I don't know how many blisters have been worn out on my feet. Lu Ye thought that she would cry and cry and go back to Ningzhou Mansion, but who knew that the little girl was actually very tough without saying a word, but she was quite relieved to see her.
Standing in the Wangxian Pavilion and looking up, a towering fairy mountain towers into the clouds, the Taoist temple in the mountain stands in a forest, the incense is luxuriant, the pine and cypress ancient trees are towering to the sky, the mountain springs and streams are like jade belts entwined and walking between the smoke and haze, countless rare birds and beasts are all over the mountain and frolicking and perching, or there are clusters of colorful dazzling lights looming in the depths of the mountain forest, it is said that the immortals on the mountain are practicing swords.
There is a mountain road that winds to the peak of the highest peak of Sanqing Mountain from the Wangxian Pavilion, known as the "Sanqing Heavenly Ladder", with more than 36,000 steps. Only those who can climb to the top have the opportunity to become children of the fairy family.
It's a pity that throughout the ages, there have been many people who have climbed the Sanqing ladder and are eager to reach the sky in one step, but very few people have been able to succeed. The vast majority of them had not yet arrived at the Yuqing Gate, and they were already exhausted and gave up halfway.
From the Yuqing Gate to the top is a sea of clouds, the two sides of the ladder are full of flowers, the four seasons are undefeated, known as "the clouds embrace the snow in the middle of the ridge, and the flowers spit out a stream of smoke." "This sea of clouds is precisely the watershed between heaven and man, if there is no immortal root and opportunity, you will be lost in the depths of the sea of clouds, and you will never be able to knock on the Shangqing Pavilion.
Therefore, being able to go to the Shangqing Pavilion is already considered a disciple of the immortal family, and most of the disciples of the eight veins and eleven branches of the Hanging Heaven View also live here. The trial disciples such as Man Taibao and Xiao Jar had to climb to the Shangqing Pavilion alone through the Sanqing Heavenly Ladder in order to truly complete the introductory test and enter the Hanging Heaven Temple to become an outer apprentice.
A disciple like Chen Douyu still needs to continue to move forward to the Taiqing Palace at the peak. This is the central essence of the Hanging Sky View. The legendary ten-mile peach blossom forest, the ancient sword Tan Ju is located here, and there are immortal boats that can fly to the spiritual peaks of Sanqing Mountain.
So when they arrived at Wangxian Pavilion, it was time for the group of twelve people to go their separate ways. Chen Douyu had to lead the five trial disciples to complete the test of climbing the Sanqing Heavenly Ladder. Xiao Mochang and Li Molian accompanied Lu Ye, You Long, Fan Gaohu, and Zou Yan to Taiqing Palace to visit Yan Mochan, the lord of the Hanging Heaven Temple.
As soon as he heard this, he was going to be separated from Brother Lu, and the little jar was full of reluctance, and he wanted to cry but didn't dare to cry.
Lu Ye was really worried about whether she would be able to persist in reaching the Shangqing Pavilion, after all, this journey was bound to reach the sky for adults, not to mention the little jar who was not interested in cultivating on the mountain in the first place.
But this is the rule of the Hanging Heaven View, Lu Ye can only hold the hand of the little jar to cheer her up: "Chen Zhenren is a good friend of Brother Lu, since she has taken a fancy to you, it means that you will definitely be able to do it." I'll go up the mountain first, and when you arrive, I'll send a letter to Xiaodao, telling her that the little jar can also be a sword fairy. ”
This sentence is more effective than any panacea, and the little jar wiped his face and said, "Brother Lu, you have to wait for me on the mountain!"
Lu Ye chuckled, "No problem." When you get to the Shangqing Pavilion, I'll give you a good thing. ”
He thought that the Yang Zhi Yulu he brought with him was a good thing, and sending a small bottle to quench his thirst should not break the rules of the Hanging Heaven Temple.
He also wanted to tell Miao Yusheng a few more words, no matter how he said that he was his cousin.
Chen Douyu said impatiently: "Lu Xun, don't be here, mother-in-law." I can't bear this bit of suffering, what kind of disciple of the Hanging Heaven View can I do?"
Fan Gaohu was not happy, and muttered: "What is the great thing about the disciples of the Hanging Heaven Temple, don't ......"
Lu Ye moved faster than Zou Yan this time, covered Fan Gaohu's mouth and dragged him up the mountain, and smiled apologetically at Chen Douyu: "Let's go first, you take your time." ”
Chen Douyu sneered and turned his head to ignore him, Fan Gaohu was furious, and wanted to scold his mother with a whine in his mouth, Zou Yan stepped forward and pinched the tender meat between his ribs, so he was honest.
At that moment, Lu Ye and the others followed the two elders, Xiao Mochang and Li Molian, first. You Long dragged and dragged at the end, he wanted to stay and accompany Chen Douyu to blow the mountain breeze and look at the stars and moon, but the first time he came to the door, he had to pretend to be serious.
The six people in the group were all fast, and in an instant, Chen Douyu and the five trial disciples were gone.
After about half an hour, it rained in the mountains, and the four fields became chaotic and dark.
Lu Ye and the others are not afraid of wind and rain, and they don't need to hold an umbrella and wear a cover, they walk lightly in the rain, and Yuqing Gate is already in sight.
