Chapter 129: The Road to Escape
In autumn, the sky is high and the clouds are farther away, the brothers are reunited for millions of miles, and the laughter and conversation in the quiet spiritual spring valley are still frequent, or old, or Qingyue, or coquettish, and thousands of years of paradise are finally awakened by mortals today. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The thousand-year-old banyan branches are on display, the wine is still open, and the excited Yezhou deceased is complaining to each other, with joy, sadness, and affection, and the three ups and downs of fate will open the rise of monks in the future.
Ye Yun and Ye Yaojiao smiled and were so unhappy, today was the most time they had seen people since they were sensible. Watching Ai Lang and the younger brother named Ergouzi drink more and more, the sisters felt other feelings that belonged to people for the first time, although they knew that brothers and sisters were the same, but because of this, they became more and more curious about the outside world.
"Second dog brother, you are only one year younger than Yun Lang, why is your cultivation so weak? You must not cultivate hard, you like to be lazy, you will change it in the future!"
Ye Yun was like a sister-in-law, and Xiao Ping's straightforward words made Xiao Ping ashamed, but he didn't dare to refute it. Xiao Ping has been cowardly and timid since he was a child, and when he saw the two beautiful sisters-in-law today, he was a little cowering for no reason, and he had to blush and muttered in his heart.
My sister-in-law, you don't look at who the eldest brother is, I have such good luck as him! Originally, there was a blood spirit root, but Li Lao Immortal couldn't see it at the beginning, if it wasn't for the later encounter with Brother Meng, I was afraid that I wouldn't even be able to walk the path of cultivation.
Hearing Ye Yun's words, Xiao Yun laughed, and also remembered the accident of Ergouzi becoming a monk, and then said with a smile: "Sister Yun, Brother Ping has also grown up, and in the future, he will be the descendant of the Xiao family of my Blood Spirit Sect, and he is also the helper I need the most, in the future, we should not call him by his nickname, it will make him lose confidence." ”
Ye Yun agreed with a smile, as if she still wanted to show off her sister-in-law and teach Xiao Ping a few more words. I didn't want Ye Yao to be interested when she heard Ailang's words, but she hugged Xiao Yun's arm and asked in a curious voice, "Yun Lang, where is the Blood Spirit Sect?"
"All go, all go, but in a few years, I will first teach the Tao of the Ping Di clan, and he will be the pillar of our Xiao family in the future." Xiao Yun's laughter obviously also revealed his thoughts, thinking that Xiao Ping, who had a blood spirit root, was more suitable to preside over the Blood Spirit Sect than himself.
Immediately, Xiao Yun asked the embarrassed clan brother, "Brother Ping, who helped you detect your spiritual root? How can it be detected and only passed on your simplest qi cultivation technique, and not even the basic cultivation method to you?"
Xiao Ping listened to the eldest brother's question, and said with some regret: "Big brother, it's not that I don't cultivate hard, at that time, after Brother Meng helped me detect the spiritual root, he said that he didn't have a suitable blood path skill for me to cultivate." Originally, Brother Meng wanted me to go to the Shenxiao Dao Sect to worship the mountain gate, but then I was chased and killed by those zombies, so I didn't make it. ”
Xiao Yun's eyes suddenly skyrocketed when he heard this, and he realized that the big brother Meng that Xiao Ping said was Senior Brother Meng Gang, who served as the protector of the country in Shunguo. He had been looking for the whereabouts of this eldest brother, and he didn't want to finally have some news now, so he asked urgently: "Brother Meng? Are you talking about Senior Brother Meng Gang?"
Xiao Ping saw that the eldest brother was so anxious, and he also heard that Brother Meng had said something about Xiao Yun, so he told the story of him and He Kui being rescued by Meng Gang and escorted to Guangzhou without any reservations, only to hear Xiao Yun, who was bent on finding the senior brother, sigh for a long time.
It turned out that Zhou Xing took the monks of the corpse faction back to his hometown for revenge, and Xiao Ping, who was lucky enough to escape with his life, came to Yezhou City again. It is no wonder that the timid and inexperienced peasant boy, who was only nine years old at the time, could escape there, and he could only flee back to the familiar Iron Wolf Society, thinking that this gang could save his life.
But he didn't want Xiao Ping to enter the door of the Iron Wolf Club before he heard the screams of being slaughtered in the courtyard of the hall on the corner of the street. Although the peasant child was cowardly and timid, he was not stupid, and guessed that this must be the revenge of the immortals brought by Zhou Xing, so he escaped from the city again.
It's just that Xiao Ping is really desperate, even if he wants to escape, there is nowhere to go. So the frightened and frightened child had to seek protection from acquaintances, so he found He Kui, who had some acquaintances before, thinking that he could escape for a while.
Although He Kui is also cowardly and timid, he has always felt guilty about Xiao Yun. After receiving the Tongmai Pill given by Xiao Yun, he quickly healed his leg, and his life was much better with the help of the fifty taels of silver. Seeing that the poor child came to join him, he did not hesitate to hide Xiao Ping at home.
He Kui originally wanted to take Xiao Ping to escape from Yezhou, but in the year of the catastrophe, bandits were everywhere, and they had no strength as the old and the young, and they left the county town where the security was acceptable and traveled a long distance to find death. I had to pray to God and worship Buddha every day, and I only hoped that after a long time, Xiao Ping could escape death.
I never thought that the Corpse Kui faction would continue to chase and kill for a long time, and they also sent two immortal masters to track down in Yezhou City. That is, in less than half a month, it was about to be traced to He Kui's head, and the old and young were almost on the edge of the cliff, seeing that their lives were in danger.
It is also thanks to He Kui, who has opened a broken tea stall for decades, has some knowledge, and knows that his business cannot be stopped, otherwise he will soon be discovered by the people who are being tracked down. So at this critical time when it seemed that his life was about to be lost, Meng Gang, who came to Shunguo to perform his duties, arrived.
As early as the few months that Meng Gang got along with Xiao Yun and Minggu, he had heard the little junior brother talk about these past events and childhood brothers. Meng Gang, who was already close to Xiao Yun like a brother and had a warm temperament, took the opportunity of going out to inspect the place to visit his hometown and old days on behalf of his junior brother.
But after arriving in Xiaojialong, Meng Gang found a tragedy, and even found that it was the corpse monk who did this vicious thing. How could Meng Gang, who had a bold personality and a chivalrous demeanor, not be angry when he saw this? Even if he abolished the two corpse Kui sect disciples who stayed in Shilipo.
It's a pity that Meng Gang is still not ruthless enough, and because he is afraid of the conflict between the two major factions, he didn't kill them all, leaving a living mouth and a legacy. But it's no wonder that even Chong Xiao Zhenjun is afraid of the conflict between the big factions, not to mention his small foundation building disciple who is stationed in the place.
Therefore, Meng Gang did not dare to summon him back to the sect, after all, he was the first to abolish the monks of the Corpse Kui Sect. Although the straight man is rough, he is not an idiot, and he knows that the reasons for eliminating violence and peace are all nonsense, if the two factions really have a conflict, for the sake of the interests of the sect to be guaranteed, the sacrifices are never all evildoers.
Although Meng Gang's cultivation is not high and his qualifications are only passable, he has practiced for more than 30 years, and of course these simple truths are understood. At this time, it was useless to summon Xiao Yun, it would only bring more pain and sorrow to the junior brother, and he knew that Xiao Yun was still locked up in the medicine garden.
So Meng Gang hurriedly left Xiao Jialong and went to Yezhou City alone, originally to see what happened to the iron wolf that Xiao Yun said, and by the way, to see Lao Hetou, who had taken care of the little junior brother. It was nothing more than wanting to get ahead of the corpse faction and inform these Xiao Yun's old friends to flee quickly. This is also Meng Gang's dogma of not hurting mortals, and letting the little junior brother solve the personal grievances of the Zhou family by himself in the future.
After learning that the two disciples who stayed in Shilipo had been deposed, Zhou Xing begged the old ghost to avenge him. Also because the old ghost was angry that the disciples of his sect were abolished, the corpse faction once again dispatched ten foundation building monks to hunt down and take revenge, and the targets of this revenge naturally included Meng Gang, who intervened in this matter
Meng Gang didn't expect that a big net that included him had been unfolded, nor did he expect that he would meet Xiao Ping at He Kui. He thought that the poor boy had fled far away, but now that he saw it, it was impossible not to stop and not save him.
Meng Gang, who wanted to meet Xiao Ping, immediately learned more news. I learned that the Iron Wolf Society in Yezhou City had been slaughtered with blood. At this point, Meng Gang also understood that the corpse faction must be going to take revenge, and if he didn't want to cause a big factional conflict because of this matter, he could only flee quickly with the old and the young.
In desperation, Meng Gang had no other way, so he wanted to take the old and the young to return to Lanxia Peak to avoid trouble. It's just because he understands very well that if he doesn't care, the old and the young will definitely die.
But soon Meng Gang found that he couldn't go back, and there were traces of corpse monks everywhere leading to the sect, and it was clear that they were the foundation building monks who had been specially arranged to block their way back to the sect.
The upright man knew that if he summoned this matter back to the sect, he would undoubtedly not be in any danger, but the old and young would definitely be handed over to the Corpse Sect. That sect would not be willing to cause a big conflict profitlessly, let alone shelter two worthless mortals like him.
Meng Gang, who was already an outlier in the cultivation realm, naturally would not give up, but it was a pity that his cultivation was not as good as his kindness. The three of them who had no way back to the sect had only one way to escape, so they fled to Gwangju under He Kui's bitter request, just because the old man wanted to find his younger brother for Xiao Yun.
Later, Meng Gang escorted the old and young to successfully escape the pursuit, and it took nearly a year to cross Lingzhou to Guangzhou. Originally, if Meng Gang was alone, he could arrive in a few months, but he couldn't get up quickly with two mortals, and he had to stay away from the monks as much as possible, so as not to reveal his whereabouts.
But after arriving in Guangzhou, Meng Gang had to return immediately, and it seemed that fate had played a joke on him, so that he was destined not to reach Puhui Zen Temple. It was only because he had just arrived in Guangzhou that Meng Gang met a large group of monks who had gone to the island to help, and only then did he learn that the Heaven and Earth Tribulation had descended on Lanxia Peak.
As a monk, no matter how uneasy Meng Gang is, he must go back to participate in the great war that is related to the life and death of the human race. had to leave enough coils, pills and other necessary things for the old and young, and the three who fled had to break up and go their separate ways.
It's just that this makes the old and the young suffer, although Xiao Ping has been tested for bleeding spiritual roots at this time, and he also has a cultivation level in the Qi cultivation period, he is still hundreds of thousands of miles away from the Thousand Buddha Cliff. Fortunately, there is neither a catastrophe nor a catastrophe in Guangzhou, which can be regarded as peaceful, and the old and young have traveled all the way for nearly four years, and they have arrived at Puhui Monastery without danger.
However, the number of days did not pity them because of the hardships of these two people's lives, and the two people who finally came to Puhui Monastery were unlucky, because they encountered the emptiness of the greedy Zhike monk.
Xiao Ping was only a little excited, forgetting that his wealth was not exposed, and then took out a pill given by Meng Gang to reward the little novice who helped to spread the word to the guest, and was driven out of the temple by the emptiness that came immediately.
The old bald thief had actually secretly colluded with the bandits for a long time, and the two little grass mustards with the Daomen pill were undoubtedly the wealth they had captured. Although it is not very useful to take emptiness, it can also benefit his subordinates.
The two who were denied permission to enter the temple begged outside the temple for seven days, but they were always rejected by emptiness. In desperation, I had to temporarily return to the town fifty miles away from the Thousand Buddha Cliff and wait for the next day to go to Puhui Zen Temple.
But on the night they didn't want to return to the town, the two were robbed, not only robbing Xiao Ping of all the things left by Meng Gang, but also seriously injuring He Kui. It was also thanks to Xiao Ping, who had already cultivated at the first level of Qi cultivation, that he worked hard, so he escaped with He Kui on his back.
In the following months, the two fled all the way and were completely displaced, and He Kui was even more seriously injured and was about to die. However, Xiao Ping, who has a first-level cultivation of Qi cultivation, neither knows spells nor alchemy, and has never really cultivated magic techniques, so it is obviously impossible to save He Kui.
The unimaginable Xiao Ping had no choice but to join the Hehuan Sect as a handyman, but he hoped that he could earn a few low-grade pills so that the old man could live forever. It is precisely because Xiao Ping has to take care of the old man that he secretly hid He Kui in Yunyu Mountain, so that the two of them escaped the catastrophe that followed.
Xiao Yun listened to the two of them talk about these experiences of near-death and survival, but he felt guilty and angry in his heart, and he hated the corpse faction to the extreme. Even though the young man has been soothed to the extreme, it does not mean that he has become a cowardly person who can be bullied by others, and he understands that only when the damned people in this world are killed can it be peaceful.
Ye Yun and Ye Yao had tears in their eyes when they heard this tragic story, and their eyes were full of sympathy when they looked at Xiao Ping and Grandpa He. The sisters obviously didn't expect the outside world to be so sinister, and they couldn't help but shrink into Xiao Yun's arms, feeling a little scared in their hearts.
Seeing Xiao Yun and the sisters with such expressions, He Kui was moved and hurriedly persuaded: "Xiao Yunzi, in fact, it's nothing, although the three of us have a hard life, aren't we still doing well now." And there is such a good wine, such a good place to stay, the past is over, we don't care if it's good or not. ”
"Big brother, you can't forget! My father and mother and younger brothers and sisters were eaten by those zombies, I want revenge!" Xiao Ping disagreed with Grandpa He's words, the young man who once watched his relatives being devoured by the corpse from afar can never forget the scene of his relatives being killed.
Xiao Yun looked at the brother who was clenching his teeth and his fists were clenched, and nodded in agreement: "Okay! Brother Ping, you are very good, this is the son of my Xiao family! Brother will not help you take revenge, but Brother will help you cultivate and make you stronger, in the future, you will kill all the enemies yourself, do you have the courage?!"
"Big brother, I won't be timid anymore, if I want to die, I'll already die several times, there's nothing to be afraid of. I also have the surname Xiao, and I will never disgrace you!" Xiao Ping's words seemed to be said with courage, but he still showed a bit of cowardice from his flickering eyes, which was a sign of not being confident enough.
Xiao Yun looked at Xiao Ping and sighed secretly, but he also knew that people's temperament could not change overnight. If he hadn't been bewitched by the possessed Dudu at the beginning, he might not have been better there, but if he took this brother to experience more blood in the future, he might be able to become more decisive after getting used to nature.
As for how to create this brother's cultivation, Xiao Yun, who was carrying several supreme divine objects, didn't think it was too difficult. However, Meng Gang's whereabouts were still unknown, which made him still very disappointed in his heart, because Xiao Yun knew very well that Senior Brother had not returned to Hezhou, he had fought in the Void Battlefield for almost a year, and he had never heard from Meng Gang.
It's just that even if you want to look for it now, you have no clue, and after Xiao Yun asked He Kui and Xiao Ping in detail again, he still didn't find any clues to trace Meng Gang's whereabouts. However, there is also a faint intuition, and there is a ninety percent chance that the senior brother is in the Light Spirit Inland Sea.
Just because the Inland Sea of Light and Spirit is surrounded by the three continents of Light, Spirit, and Soul, although the Inland Sea is only less than one percent of the coast, the nearest way to return from Guangzhou to Shenxiao Dao Sect is to cross this inland sea with a radius of millions of miles. And there are many islands in this sea, and there are no more than one continent of monks, and Meng Gang is likely to be trapped on one of them.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yun also had a new thought, now that the land of Guangzhou is experiencing the counterattack of the ancient Wu clan, there is no safe place at all. Perhaps it is safer to occupy a hidden island in the Inner Sea of the Light Spirit as a foundation, in short, it is safer than being on the side of the Hehuan Sect's couch.
In this way, you can inquire about the whereabouts of the elder brother, and you can gradually develop some strength. If you want to rebuild the Blood Spirit Sect alone, you can't do it alone, and adding a Xiao Ping is also a complete joke. So thinking of this, Xiao Yun already had a fixed opinion in his heart, so he made arrangements with the team around him now.
"Grandpa He, Brother Ping, I will take you into the Blood Hall tonight, and you will not be able to come out for a year in the future, so you will cultivate in the Blood Palace. ”
He Kui was immediately stupid when he heard this, and hurriedly said in a panic: "Xiao Yunzi, I'm so old, and I don't have your spiritual root, I'm just a mortal, I can't cultivate!." You better teach Xiaopingzi more, don't waste your baby and time for my bad old man. ”
Who knew that Xiao Yun smiled when he heard this, and smiled very confidently, and at this moment, he heard the young man say: "Grandpa He, who told you that you can't cultivate without a spiritual root?" I guarantee that you will live a long life, and you may be able to marry a daughter-in-law and give birth to a few big fat boys in the future." ”
He Kui heard what Xiao Yun said, and he didn't know whether he was stunned or stunned, but he just looked at Xiao Yun with confidence on his face. Although Xiao Ping is not a real monk, he has always been taught by Meng Gang, and he couldn't help but be a little confused when he heard the words of the eldest brother, and then asked, "Big brother, can you really cultivate without a spiritual root?"
Hearing the answer between the three of them, Ye Yun and Ye Yao also thought that this was impossible, so they looked at Ailang in disbelief. Seeing Xiao Yun raise his glass and drink it all, he then said with a smile: "Believe me, if I say I can, I will definitely be able to ......" (to be continued.) )
