Chapter 22: Disguise

"'An old man hanging pot, only in the sea of clouds. Lin Xuanqing chewed this sentence several times, but found nothing, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

I also pondered this sentence carefully, but I was confused and didn't know what to do. The word 'sea of clouds' is mentioned in the proverb, and I know that there is a Yunhai County to the east of the Great Chu State, but the Yunhai County is fertile for thousands of miles, and trying to find a person from it is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack. Lin Shurong said.

Lin Xuanqing nodded, if this proverb really pointed out that it was Yunhai County, I am afraid there was no need to guess, it was too obvious and did not conform to Lin Dongfang's state at that time.

"Wait, Shizun once said, this sentence must be told to me, right?" Lin Xuanqing suddenly flashed a spiritual light in his mind, waved his hand, and asked Lin Shurong.

"Yes, that's true, is there any problem?" Lin Shurong was stunned.

A smile gradually appeared on Lin Xuanqing's face.

He smiled heartily and said confidently: "I think, I already know the location of the master." ”

"Do you know, where?" Lin Shurong was stunned for a long time.

She pondered the proverbs for ten years, but she found nothing, and he actually saw through the mystery in less than half a day, how could it be?

Lin Xuanqing saw the puzzlement on her face and explained: "Actually, you can't guess, it's not that you're not smart enough, but that there is another mystery in this statement, which you don't know." ”

"There is another mystery, what mystery?" Lin Shurong's eyes widened with curiosity.

Lin Xuanqing smiled: "You listen to my explanations one by one." The "hanging pot" in "hanging pot and an old man" is the meaning of "hanging pot to help the world", that is to say, if the master respects his old man and does not die, he will change his name and surname, pretending to be a traveling doctor in the rivers and lakes to protect himself. ”

These words are not hard to guess. Lin Shurong nodded in agreement.

Lin Xuanqing chuckled: "What you don't know is that ten years ago, Shizun also pretended to be a traveling doctor, traversing the famous mountains and rivers of Chu State, looking for clues to some rare spirit grasses. Later, he met me and took me back to the Ancient Sword Gate. He rehashed the old story, and made it clear that he would bring it to me, lest it ......"

"I'm afraid it's a hint that he will appear in your hometown, right?" Lin Shurong Bingxue was smart, but when he mentioned it, he immediately guessed the key.

"Hehe, that's good. That's exactly what it means. Lin Xuanqing glanced at her approvingly.

"Then how to explain the latter sentence?" Lin Shurong became excited and couldn't wait to ask.

Lin Xuanqing smiled slightly, and said slowly: "The latter sentence 'only in the sea of clouds', the sea of clouds is the key. It's just that this 'sea of clouds' does not refer to the sea of clouds, but to the 'sea of clouds cliff'. ”

"Yunhai Cliff, what kind of place is this?" Lin Shurong was shocked.

"It's a small place, it's not well-known, but it's a place where I used to play when I was a kid. Shizun once picked a century-old blood ginseng in this cliff, so for him, it can be described as a blessed land. Lin Xuanqing confided in this secret.

Lin Shurong suddenly said: "No wonder I have been enlightened for so long and have gained nothing, it turns out that there is such a story in it." I'm afraid that this proverb will be all over the world, and you will be able to understand the true meaning of it. ”

Lin Xuanqing also sighed with emotion: "The master hinted at this proverb to me, which really means entrusting him with his life. It's only because I got the news too late, so that I let him live in the barren mountains for more than ten years, which is really a big unfilial piety. I can't wait to meet him now. ”

In fact, to tell the truth, after so many years, I have almost forgotten what he looks like, but I have the impression that he is a very kind old man, and he is very kind to me. Lin Shurong recalled her childhood and couldn't help laughing.

Lin Xuanqing cracked the proverb, was in a good mood, and couldn't help but say leisurely: "You play the piano well, and your voice is extremely sweet, you must be a big beauty." It is a pity that I can't see the girl's true face when I only sigh in the next blessing. ”

"Poof. Lin Shurong was amused by his words, and said angrily, "Jing can say some rhetoric, what 'sweet voice', 'good piano playing', I don't know how to laugh at people in my heart!"

"Ah, the conscience of heaven and earth, these are the words of the bottom of my heart. Lin Xuanqing said hurriedly and seriously.

"Okay, okay, even if I believe it, I can't do it! In that house, there are always a bunch of annoying flies flying around me, buzzing and annoying. I wore a veil, I just didn't want the flies to come close. In fact, it is not difficult to take off the veil, but I am afraid that my true appearance is too ugly and will stain your eyes. Lin Shurong said, then took off the veil on her head, revealing a delicate and beautiful face.

Lin Xuanqing just glanced at it, and was stunned for a moment, with a sense of amazement.

In fact, even if Lin Shurong is wearing a veil, as long as he has the intention to peep, he can also find out his divine sense and have a full view of his face, and the veil alone cannot stop the exploration of his divine consciousness at all. However, he didn't want to do this kind of thing to take advantage of others, so he kept putting up with it not to reveal the true face of this woman.

This woman has a thrilling pretty face, her sandalwood mouth is fragrant, her skin is snowy, her small nose is as smooth as jade, and with this pair of black and bright eyes, she is simply beautiful. Even if it is placed in the Ancient Sword Sect, this woman is enough to rank among the top three female cultivators, and I am afraid that only Luo Qingmei and Qin Mengge can match it.

It's just that Luo Qingmei and Qin Mengge are both cultivating immortals, and their bodies naturally exude a kind of fairy aura that is beyond the mortal, and this girl is closer to everyone's beauty, showing a delicate posture with a tuft of cheeks.

"Hey, you...... You shouldn't be frightened by my appearance, right?" Lin Shurong shook her hand in front of his eyes, covered her mouth and chuckled.

Lin Xuanqing came back to his senses, found his gaffe, and smiled awkwardly: "Where can I be scared, I was just shocked." ”

"Surprised?" Lin Shurong was stunned.

"Yes, I didn't expect you to be a big beauty, don't say it's me, just change it to another man, at first glance, I'm afraid you will be shocked. Lin Xuan smiled heartily.

"Giggles," Lin Shurong laughed, "I find that you are really getting better at pleasing girls." ”

was teased by Lin Shurong, Lin Xuanqing could only smile bitterly, he was just telling the truth, okay?

The two chatted vigorously, and there was no sense of strangeness anymore, but like two confidants and friends who had been friends for many years.

Seeing that it was noon, Lin Xuanqing decided to leave as soon as possible to find Lin Dongfang's whereabouts. Although he didn't know if he was still near Yunhai Cliff after so long, no matter what the result was, he had to confirm it in person to feel at ease. It's just that there was such a big commotion in Zhuoguang County just now, I'm afraid that now the entire Fang family will be dispatched to find the traces of the two of them, and it is really not easy to leave calmly.

You must know that the Fang family has been operating in Zhuoguang County for many years, and its power must also be intertwined, and its energy should not be underestimated, once it is all mobilized, not only the worldly people, but even many immortal cultivators in Zhuoguang County, I am afraid that they will have to obey their dispatch. Once the whereabouts of the two are revealed, they are very easy to be hunted down.

After Lin Xuanqing's careful consideration, he finally decided not to use the sword technique, after all, if he did so, the target would be too big and the danger would be too high.

He and Lin Shurong dressed up in disguise and pretended to be a broad young master, while Lin Shurong pretended to be a maid and walked down the mountain calmly. He hid several sets of clothes in his storage bag, enough to change clothes only, as for Lin Shurong, because his appearance was too amazing, in order to prevent being recognized, he deliberately dotted a few freckles on his face, so that he looked much more ordinary, and it was no longer so easy to attract attention.

When the two reached the bottom of the mountain, they first entered a market and rented a dilapidated carriage.

The coachman was a hunchbacked old man in his sixties, who looked extremely inconspicuous and had a little back in his ears. Lin Xuanqing said three times in a row about the place he was going to before he heard it clearly.

"Qixia County, that's more than sixty miles away from here, and it takes half a day to go back and forth. The coachman exclaimed.

"This ingot of silver, should be enough, right?" Lin Xuanqing didn't talk nonsense, and directly took out an ingot of silver weighing about two taels from his arms and threw it to the hunchbacked old man.

The hunchbacked old man took the silver, rubbed his eyes, and couldn't believe it: "Ah, so much silver, but it's enough for the little old man's expenses for half a year! ”

"It's okay, it's just a little silver tael, if there is more, it should be regarded as a reward for you! But I like to be quiet, you just have to hurry, if there is nothing else important, don't disturb us, this can be done?" Lin Xuanqing chuckled lightly and said lightly.

"Yes, yes. The hunchbacked old man hurriedly agreed.

"That's good. Lin Xuanqing nodded, and got into the carriage first, and Lin Shurong then got in together.

"Objective, you can sit down!"

With the shout of the hunchbacked old man, the whip "snapped" and the wheels began to turn slowly.
