People who have more experience in traveling far on the continent of Central Continent often say a sentence, saying that there are two connotations of running dead horses in the mountains, one is that there are many detours in the mountains, and the distance that seems to be very close often has to be detoured far away, and the other is that there are many divergent roads in the mountains, and the horses are very good substitute mounts on the flat land, but they are too dangerous to use in the mountain roads and are not suitable, so Zhao Xifeng gave up the style of running early and walked in the mountains at an ordinary pace.

Zhao Xifeng set off from Panlong Town to the side of Xifeng Mountain, it only took a few hours, and in the more than 20 miles he walked in the mountain, he walked for 14 days.

Of course, he could have walked faster, but he was not in a hurry, in the mountains and forests, all kinds of birds and beasts were far more spiritual than the animals in the town, Zhao Xifeng walked all the way, looked all the way, and imitated mimicry all the way.

In the clear spring, imitate the posture of fish swimming, at the foot of the snow-capped mountain, dance with the wolves, at the top of the pine forest crown, chase the mountain cats and wild finch, and at the bottom of the mountain stream, the old turtle sleeps.

Gradually, the nine postures that Zhao Xifeng learned no longer had obvious traces of axes and chisels on his body, and Zhao Xifeng was also in a hurry, becoming more and more at ease, crossing mountains and mountains as if walking on flat ground, quietly marching towards the natural god-like realm in the mouth of the dry sea.

In fact, Zhao Xifeng himself didn't know that the initiator of these nine postures was in this Xifeng Mountain, observing nature and enlightening the Tao. And the founder himself would never have imagined that more than a hundred years later, there would be a young man who would re-embark on his original path in the same way in the place of enlightenment.

In the past ten days, Zhao Xifeng's clothes have begun to become dirty and tattered, but his eyes have become clearer and clearer, and the child has begun to change to the appearance of a teenager.

Finally, when the soles of the shoes were worn out and the trekking sticks were replaced by two, Zhao Xifeng came to the foot of the main peak of Xifeng Mountain, and when he arrived at the foot of the mountain, he heard a sharp and clear cry faintly from the clouds, with a hint of the pride of the blue sky overlord in freedom.

Hearing this, Zhao Xifeng laughed silently.

Xifeng Mountain originally had two main peaks, which have been standing opposite each other for thousands of years, like a couple looking at each other, or two door gods guarding the northwest gate of the empire side by side, but more than ten years ago, one of the main peaks somehow broke off from it, forming a platform on the original mountainside, so that only one main peak was left in Xifeng Mountain.

Zhao Xifeng came to the mountainside of the broken mountain peak and found a cave backed by wind and snow, it was already mid-May, but the mountain was cold, and the sky was still covered with ice and snow outside the cave.

Zhao Xifeng untied the dry firewood and the hare prepared from the forest at the foot of the mountain from his back, took out the fire fold and a small bottle of glazed roast from his backpack, lit a bonfire, used roast rabbit meat without salt, ate dry food one bite at a time, occasionally drank a small sip of soju, the wind and snow outside the cave roared, and in the firelight in the cave, the barbecue and shochu reflected a little moonlight, and it also reflected a little warmth and chic, but I don't know what kind of animal has inhabited this cave, leaving a fishy fecal smell, some fly in the ointment, Zhao Xifeng, shook his head and sighed regretfully。

After eating, the ten-year-old child fell asleep with a pillow and a deep sleep in the turtle diving method.

In the early morning of the second day, Zhao Xifeng took out the rope that had been prepared when he left home, and after testing its strength, he was ready to climb the main peak.

However, when Zhao Xifeng really walked to the foot of the only remaining main peak, he was dumbfounded, the mountain is hundreds of feet high, and most of them are cliffs, and it is almost a vertical line from the bottom to the top, which is prohibitive.

"Damn, in this exercise given by Master Kuhai, why doesn't there be a single trick that imitates a monkey! How is this called Xiao Ye!" Zhao Xifeng scolded with a wry smile.

Complaining and complaining, Zhao Xifeng still untied the rope, lassoed the stone at one end, threw it upward, and hung a raised rock, and then, cautiously stretched out his hand, grasped the stone or the frozen ice, and slowly climbed towards the mountain.

On the first day, Zhao Xifeng didn't even finish climbing a third, and when he came, he had heard the dry sea say that flying eagles are proud and often like to build nests closest to the sky, so this height is far from enough.

After returning to the cave to rest and recuperate, on the second day, Zhao Xifeng had more knowledge of the mountain and climbing experience, and his walking speed was much faster than yesterday, and he finally climbed to the halfway position, but still did not see any traces of eagle falcon activity.

On the third day, Zhao Xifeng finally saw the eagle's nest as he wished at the position where he was about to reach the top, but only saw a few young eagles in the nest. After three days of exhausting and even risking his life, what he saw was such a few chicken-like birds, Zhao Xifeng couldn't help but be amused and frustrated, just when he turned around and was about to leave, Zhao Xifeng suddenly figured out something, and slapped himself with his backhand and scolded: "Stupid to death." ”

It turns out that this season, when the chicks are born, and the mother needs to go out to hunt a lot to fill those empty mouths, of course, the mother eagle cannot stay in the nest often, and Zhao Xifeng has to learn the actions of the flying eagle falconry, instead of stretching his neck and quacking, finding the eagle's nest has no effect at all!

So Zhao Xifeng climbed back to the foot of the mountain again, and returned to the pine forest near the mountain, after waiting for most of the night, he finally caught a black hare, tired carrying the hare back to the cave, he did not slaughter the hare to eat meat, but tied one end of the rope rope to the rabbit's hind legs, the hare did not know whether it was because of the cold or fear, shivering in the cave, Zhao Xifeng held it in his arms, and read in his mouth: " Little black rabbit, little black rabbit, whether you can succeed tomorrow depends on you, if it happens, I will try not to hurt your life, if not, I will eat you and drink. ”

The hare trembled even harder.

On the fourth day, he took the hare with a rope tied to it, and went to a clearing at the foot of the main peak, dug a large pit in the snow with his bare hands, held one end of the rope, and buried himself in it, leaving only a very small gap to expose his eyes and nose, and the other end of the rope, the hare was alone.

In this way, the black hare is like a striking ink spot at the foot of the snow-covered mountain, which is extremely conspicuous, Zhao Xifeng carried the turtle diving method in the snow, and he didn't feel cold, and read in his mouth: "I don't believe you don't come." ”

It turned out that he wanted to use the hare as bait to lure the female eagle on the top of the mountain to prey on it for stealing.

In fact, Zhao Xifeng could have secretly taken away a nest of young eagles yesterday, maybe the effect would be better, but from the beginning Zhao Xifeng didn't think about this aspect, he would rather go to the bottom of the mountain to work for most of the day, and his mercy for the young son and not killing easily is Zhao Wu's teaching, and it is also Zhao Xifeng's valuable kindness to the world.

Zhao Xifeng Xifeng lay in the snow, silently waiting, under the turtle diving technique, his body temperature dropped to the lowest, and the snow buried on his body did not have obvious traces of melting, so that it could be perfectly hidden around the hare. It didn't get frostbite, and it didn't get frostbite to the body.

Finally, after waiting for about an hour, a familiar roar faintly sounded in the sky, Zhao Xifeng looked at the sky through the small slit, and a bird with a wingspan of more than the size of a person hovered high and low above his head.

Zhao Xifeng perked up and clenched his fists.
