Chapter 10: The Hidden Dragon

"Knock", "knock", "knock" knocked on the door three times, and Zhao Xinming woke up suddenly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info looked up, a ray of sunlight was shining in through the window, and it was already dawn.

"Mr. Zhao, are you up?" Xiao Wu shouted loudly while standing outside the door.

"Get up, wait a minute. Zhao Xinming replied, cleaned up, and hurriedly opened the door.

"Mr. Zhao, my husband is invited. ”

Zhao Xinming didn't say much, and followed Xiao Wu over. As soon as I arrived in the courtyard, I heard the sound of reading aloud, and I suddenly felt relaxed and happy, and my whole body was refreshed.

"Does your husband get up so early every day?" Zhao Xinming couldn't help but ask when he heard the sound of books.

"Yes, my husband gets up every day, freshens up and starts to work hard until midnight, when he has done his homework. Xiao Wu said with a smile.

"How long have you lived here?" While speaking, Zhao Xinming looked around the small courtyard, there were a few monkeys squatting on the edge of the courtyard, and a few unknown birds and birds standing above the fence, all of them looked intoxicated.

"It's been seven or eight years. We originally lived in the state city, but my husband thought it was too noisy and socialized, which affected our homework, so we moved here. Xiao Wu didn't hide it and said truthfully.

"Little Wu, why do these monkeys, birds and birds come to listen to books, as well as yesterday's tigers, wild wolves, and mountain bears?" Zhao Xinming said "listening to books", and he felt incredible.

"Hehe, this is my husband's cultivation!" Xiao Wu said with a smile, "Educating sentient beings and persuading people to learn are all cultivation." About five or six years ago, every time he read a book, he would attract some birds, then monkeys, and more than a year ago, tigers and wild wolves were also attracted to them. But the gentleman often said, 'The beast is easy to deal with, but the human heart is unpredictable'!"

"'Beasts are easy to deal with, but people's hearts are unpredictable'!" Zhao Xinming said several times, deeply touched.

"Mr. Zhao, are you also a cultivator?" Just as Zhao Xinming was pondering, Xiao Wu asked with a smile.

Zhao Xinming shook his head and laughed at himself: "It's not counting, that is, when I was a child, I was weak and sickly, and my father found someone to teach him some fists and feet, so he should be healthy." ”

"Sir, Mr. Zhao is here. Xiao Wu walked straight into the living room with Zhao Xinming.

"Mr. Zhao, did you sleep well at night?" Wu Ziyu nodded and asked with a smile.

"Very well, thank you sir. Seeing Wu Ziyu, Zhao Xinming saluted, and then said, "There was a lot of disturbance yesterday, and I came to ask Mr. for my resignation." ”

"Mr. Zhao wants to go, he should be free. It's just that I thought about it all night and felt that some things should be better explained to Mr. Zhao. Wu Ziyu looked at Zhao Xinming and said solemnly.

"If the gentleman has anything to instruct, listen to him. Zhao Xinming was shocked and secretly guarded.

"Mr. Zhao, don't be nervous, please take a seat first. Wu Ziyu smiled slightly and made a gesture of please.

Zhao Xinming took a step back and sat down at the table next to him. Wu Ziyu nodded and said slowly, "Does Mr. Zhao know why he was hunted down?"

Zhao Xinming was stunned for a moment, and after a long time, he said: "I am stupid, please give me advice." ”。

"Don't dare to be. Mr. Zhao has heard the saying of 'hidden dragon'. Wu Ziyu suddenly asked.

"'Hidden Dragon'?" Zhao Xinming muttered a few times, thought for a while, shook his head and said, "No." ”

"In that case, I'll tell Mr. Zhao about it. Wu Ziyu paused for a moment and said slowly, "The rotation of the stars and the alternation of yin and yang are for the way of heaven! Flowers bloom and fall, and birth, old age, sickness and death are for reincarnation! Those 'immortality' are all vain in the end! Heaven is like this, so is the earth, and so is the dynasty." ”

Wu Ziyu said quite mysteriously, Zhao Xinming was confused when he heard it, he didn't understand it very well, and frowned slightly.

Wu Ziyu looked at Zhao Xinming and continued: "The Great Zhou Dynasty was founded in 967, starting from Emperor Wu of Zhou more than 400 years ago, and has been weakened to this day. For example, today's disputes, the heroes stand side by side, and the Great Zhou Dynasty is in chaos everywhere, but it is not peaceful and rising again and again, and it is about to be unable to suppress it. ”

When Zhao Xinming heard this, he could be regarded as having a little understanding of the current situation, but unfortunately, what does this have to do with the 'hidden dragon'? Zhao Xinming couldn't understand it for a while, and he didn't speak, just sat there and listened quietly.

Wu Ziyu looked at Zhao Xinming again and said again: "At this time, thousands of years of time, the heaven and the earth are moving, the vicissitudes of the sea, the light and the heavy turbidity converge in one place, this is the 'dragon vein'." Those who have a 'dragon vein', outstanding people, will produce a 'human master', and this 'human master' is a 'hidden dragon'. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Xinming finally understood a little bit, that Lord Zhou chased after him, could it be that he regarded himself as a 'hidden dragon'? So he couldn't help but say: "Mr. Wu, you mean that they treat me as a 'hidden dragon'?"

"Exactly, if I'm not mistaken, that Lord Zhou dug up in your field should be the 'dragon vein'?" Wu Ziyu nodded, and then said, "Mr. Zhao, do you know what 'Hidden Dragon' means?"

"Yes. Zhao Xinming nodded, his heart was like turning over the river and the sea, with mixed tastes!

"So what?" No matter what, he has to live, even if the gods and Buddhas come into the world and the evil ghosts come to the dust, he must live! After thinking about this, Zhao Xinming completely relaxed.

Wu Ziyu also took the opportunity to observe Zhao Xinming, saw that Zhao Xinming's face changed several times, and quickly regained his calm, admired in his heart, smiled slightly, and said slowly: "Of course, these are just speculations. Perhaps, things are not so bad. ”

"Listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years, thank you Mr. Wu for solving the doubts in your heart. Zhao Xinming shook his head, stood up, saluted, and said solemnly.

"What are Mr. Zhao's plans for the future?"

"Mr. Wu, I can't hide it, I wanted to find that Lord Zhou to get justice! Now it seems to be whimsical. Zhao Xinming sighed, and then said, "I'm stupid, I don't know if Mr. Wu can give me some advice." ”

"I don't dare to give advice, I can recommend a place to Mr. Zhao, it is not a problem to increase the strength tenfold in three or five years, but this place is very dangerous, I don't know if Mr. Zhao is willing to go?"

"Please let me know. Zhao Xinming hurriedly said.

"More than 100 miles to the northeast of Qingzhou, there is an area at the junction of Qingzhou, Liang and Youzhou, with a radius of thousands of miles, called "ghost domain". This is an ancient battlefield where there were countless dead in successive battles. Since then, this area has been cloudy and dangerous all day long, and it can be said that it is a first-class evil land in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Saying this, Wu Ziyu paused for a moment.

Zhao Xinming's face was calm, and he didn't pay attention to it at all.

Wu Ziyu saw it in his eyes, and then said: "This place is very dangerous, it was originally a place for the Great Zhou Dynasty to exile repeat offenders, and it is a place for all exiled felons, and there is not one in a hundred who can come out alive. However, the felons who came out alive were ten or a hundred times more powerful! Over time, this evil place became a place for some people to cultivate. ”

Hearing "one in a hundred", Zhao Xinming's heart was shocked, there are many ways to improve his strength, there is no need to be so extreme, he doesn't think he has such good luck! However, Zhao Xinming still looked calm, and thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you Mr. Wu for your advice, Zhao is grateful." But he never said that he wanted to go in.

Wu Ziyu didn't care, the two chatted for a while, and Xiao Wu came in, "Sir, the meals are ready." Before I knew it, it was already noon.

After lunch, Zhao Xinming was about to resign again, and Wu Ziyu saw that Zhao Xinming's dry food was exhausted, so he asked Xiao Wu to prepare some for him. Zhao Xinming couldn't refuse, and thanked him repeatedly. The two chatted for another afternoon, and Zhao Xinming benefited a lot.

Just when Xiao Wu was cooking on the fire, Shan Haiqi and his party also discovered here.

"My lord, is there a house on the hill over there?" a man in a strong suit shouted as he pointed to the black smoke on the hill.

"Is there really anyone living?" Shan Haiqi muttered, looked at Master Qian and said, "Master Qian, what do you think?"

"Master Shan might as well take someone over to have a look, even if it's just to ask. Master Qian nodded and said.

"Please wait a minute, master, I'll arrange it. ”

After speaking, Shan Haiqi gave an order. In a group of 10 people, a team of more than 100 people quickly chose their respective directions. Shan Haiqi rushed over to this side of the mountain with the remaining ten people.

When night fell, Shan Haiqi finally arrived here. Listening to the sound of reading aloud from the courtyard, the group involuntarily walked over.

"Stop!" After walking a few steps, Master Qian suddenly woke up and shouted.

After drinking, Shan Haiqi and his party of more than ten people reacted. At the same time, the sound of reading in the courtyard also stopped abruptly, and the whole mountain fell silent in an instant!
