Wan Weiwang stood quietly behind the Iron Mountain Monk, and he clearly listened to the sound of his heartbeat. And the Tieshan monk just sat with his face as a Buddha and didn't speak for a long time.

Shangguan Ding saw that Guo Jian and the others were also arranged by Wan Weiwang to the apse, and the senior brother did not mean to call himself over, so he was very incomprehensible.

I don't know what happened, why the two of them were obviously very happy when they went up the mountain, but they didn't mention this happy event in a blink of an eye? Shangguan Ding thought to himself, and his huge curiosity made this young man who was less than twenty years old unable to control his legs.

He knew that this matter must be related to Shangguan Qianye and the others, because the master and senior brother had never gone behind their backs to keep themselves from knowing no matter what. Shangguan Ding gently opened the door and came out, turned around and came to the front hall.

Seeing that the master was meditating, and the senior brother was standing behind him in an orderly manner, the hall seemed very quiet, although he wanted to know what was going on, but he didn't dare to ask easily. can only quietly stand by Wan Weiwang's side.

After a long time, the Tieshan monk stood up and walked out of the main hall and into the side hall. Wan Weiwang and Shangguan Ding still stood in place, not knowing what to do next.

After a while, Shangguan Ding couldn't help it, so he asked, "Senior brother, what's wrong?"

Wan Weiwang shook his head and said helplessly, "I don't know when Master will let you know about this, so I can't explain it to you yet." Maybe it won't be long before Master tells you. ”

Shangguan Ding said: "Senior brother, is there something wrong with my brother?"

Wan Weiwang didn't answer, but he sighed deeply when he heard the question. The more Shangguan Ding thought about it, the more anxious he became, but he mustered up his courage several times, but he didn't dare to go to the side hall to ask the Tieshan monks.

Although the Tieshan monks never reprimanded the three apprentices on weekdays, the master's majesty has not diminished at all, including Wan Wei, he has never dared to say a word to the Tieshan monks.

An hour passed, and the Tieshan monk came out of the side hall, came to the main hall and handed it to Wan Weiwang and said: "I have three letters here, you get up immediately, go to Shaolin and Wudang respectively, and hand them over to Shenian and Changsu Daoren." The other was sent to Moon Island. Don't make trouble along the way, make sure that the letter is delivered to them safely, and then you can quickly go to Hetian Town to meet Qianye. ”

Wan Weiwang's heart tightened after hearing this, he knew that the people sent by these three letters were all extremely prestigious figures in the martial arts for decades. And these are also hermits who have not had a grudge against Wulin for many years.

Wan Weiwang said: "Master, what do you want to do?" Tieshan monk said: "I haven't left Shoushan for many years, and I don't know what the rivers and lakes are like now, I want to take a look again in my lifetime." ”

Wan Weiwang asked anxiously, "Master, do you want to go down the mountain?" After saying this, Wan Weiwang and Shangguan Ding were stunned, the Tieshan monks had never left Shoushan for half a step over the years.

Wan Weiwang said: "Master, I will handle this matter for you, you have sworn that you will never leave Shoushan." ”

The Tieshan monk shook his head and said, "This matter is not only related to the safety of Qianye alone, but also involves the turmoil of the entire martial arts. Because of the different perceptions of individuals, the Chinese martial arts has been lost six or seven times out of ten to this day, and I really can't bear to see any sect and people who practice martial arts innocently framed by this, so I have to go down the mountain. ”

Wan Weiwang knew that although the Tieshan monk was unfathomable, he was too old after all, and he really couldn't bear to let his old man worry about trivial matters in the rivers and lakes, but Master's words were orders, and everything had been the case over the years, so Wan Weiwang didn't say anything more, and took a letter to say goodbye to Master and Shangguan Ding and left.

Tieshan Jushi handed Shangguan Ding another letter and said: "This letter is handed over to Guo Jian, who has just come to deliver the letter, and then you take the two of them to Ningyuan City to find a home to stay, and the next day you go with them to Hetian Town, where Liushamen is located, to visit Shangguan Qianye." ”

When Shangguan Ding saw that the master was going down the mountain in person, he knew that it was definitely not an ordinary thing, and his heart was so anxious that he was angry, but he still didn't dare to ask the master, he knew that if he should be allowed to know, the Tieshan monk would definitely say it.

After receiving the letter, he turned around and wanted to leave, but he couldn't help but come back, and asked on his knees in front of the Tieshan monk: "Master, I know that if you don't tell me, there must be a reason for you." But you also know that Brother Qianye raised me since I was a child, and the relationship between the two of us is better than that of brothers. If something happened to him, how could you give me peace of mind? I hope Master can tell me directly, Ding'er begs you. ”

Tieshan lay man lifted Shangguan Ding with one hand and said, "I don't want to tell you too quickly, it's because you are impatient and impulsive by nature. The first time you went down the mountain with Qianye, if you hadn't injured Zhang Mo Nian's son, you wouldn't have caused your own murder. Besides, your brotherhood is super brotherly, and I'm afraid you won't be able to accept it. I can only tell you that Qianye did have an accident, but there was no fear of life, and he could recover in a few days of recuperation. ”

After hearing this, Shangguan Ding said viciously: "Master, please tell me, who hurt my brother?"

The Iron Mountain Monk looked at him and didn't speak, just moved his gaze to his face, and at the same time shot two majestic and irresistible gazes from his pupils.

Shangguan Ding lowered his head when he saw it, and said softly: "Master, the disciple knows that he is wrong. ”

Only then did the Tieshan monk say: "Qianye was not injured by others, but was sick due to a rush of fire. I have a few pills here, you can bring them to him now, and you can keep him from harm. ”

Shangguan Ding took it with both hands and put it in his arms. The Iron Mountain monk continued: "Ding'er, the person who sent the letter does not know about these things, you only need to arrange for them to live well, and you should not ask them or mention them. ”

Shangguan Ding nodded yes. Tieshan monk said: "Ding'er, among my disciples, I am most worried about you, although your kung fu is the highest, but you are still young, you are still young, you are still young, and you are still young, and you are very easy to make wrong decisions when you are impulsive. When you go down the mountain this time, you must not make trouble again, and after seeing Qianye, everything is up to him. If you let me know that you have done something recklessly, I will not spare you then. ”

Shangguan Ding said: "Please rest assured, Master, Ding'er has written it down." ”

Shangguan Ding led Guo Jian and the others to Ningyuan City. Seeing that everyone had left, the Tieshan monk entered the main hall again, cleaned the dust of the Buddha statue, and then took out the incense and lit it, and inserted it into the incense burner in front of the Buddha.

He stared at it for a moment before slowly walking out. Came to the mountain gate and looked at the sea, turned around for a long time, looked at the three big characters of Chaoyang Temple mentioned by the Qianlong jade pen hanging on the mountain gate, and sighed softly. After taking a few steps, he pushed the closed mountain gate open, and then floated away.

Shangguan Ding led Guo Jian and the others into Ningyuan City. At this time, how could Shangguan Ding still have any mind to consider where the two of them lived?

Because the Tieshan monk had personally instructed him to arrange the guests of the quicksand gate, he was able to endure his anxious mood. Find a medium inn at random and settle the two of them.

Shangguan Ding said to Guo Jian: "Brother Guo, you two will stay here for a few more days, you have come from afar, so that you can enjoy the scenery of our Ningyuan City." We are famous here for the five treasures of Chengquanshanhe Island, you must not leave, and it is not too late to return to Liushamen in a few days. ”

Guo Jian said: "Thank you Shangguan Shaoxia for your kindness, but my master has his life first, so I will come back as soon as possible, and we dare not disobey it, we will rest for one night today, and we will go back tomorrow." ”

Shangguan Ding said: "That's okay, if you have time in the future, I hope that the two of you can come to our Ningyuan Prefecture often." ”

Without waiting for the two to speak, he said: "Two, you guys have a night's rest here, I still have important things to do, so I will accompany you soon." You will act on your own tomorrow, and I will go to Hetian Town after I finish my errands, and we will meet there again. ”

Guo Jian said: "Okay, then let's ......" Before he finished speaking, he saw Shangguan Ding's body disappear without a trace. Guo Jian and the others were very frightened, and they didn't say anything after looking at each other for a long time.

Shangguan Ding jumped out of the inn, regardless of the blue sky and white sun, and regardless of the pedestrians, cars and horses on the road, he showed his light body technique, and walked out of the west gate of Ningyuan City at the fastest speed, and went straight to the southeast. I ran until the sun was in the west, and then I took a breath, and when I looked up again, I couldn't tell the southeast and northwest.

At this time, I was also a little hungry in my belly, and I wanted to eat something nearby, so I asked for directions by the way. Because he came out too quickly, and he didn't know how much money he was carrying, he subconsciously touched it in his arms, only to find that he didn't bring out a single piece of money.

Shangguan Ding secretly complained that he was too careless. Touching his waist again, he was so frightened that Shangguan Ding broke out in a cold sweat, and he realized that at some point, he lost his Pangu smile, and when he touched it in his arms again, the medicine that the master gave Shangguan Qianye was gone. Shangguan Ding's head was in a hurry, and he hurriedly leaned over and ran back.

The sky slowly darkened, and Shangguan Ding was so anxious that he was about to cry. Although he said that he was eager to see Shangguan Qianye, there was still a fierce energy when he just came down the mountain.

But now that he had lost two of the most important things, he didn't really know what to do. The sky was gradually darkening, and Shangguan Ding slowed down, looking for Pangu Xiao and pills along the road.

Although Shangguan Ding is eighteen years old, it is the first time he has really walked the rivers and lakes by himself, and at this time he also understands in his heart that the master and the senior brother are not in the first mountain, and he does not know where to go. If you really lose these two valuable things, who will you turn to help you?

It was completely dark, and Shangguan Ding lit a torch and continued to walk back on the way he came, but he couldn't find what he had lost.

The east is white, Shangguan Ding's eyes are dazzling, and his mouth is full of big bubbles. Just as he walked forward with his head down, he heard someone coughing on the side of the road, and the sound was very familiar.

Shangguan Ding looked up and saw that the Tieshan monk was sitting cross-legged on a large stone on the side of the road, his eyes lowered. When Shangguan Ding saw his relatives, tears flowed uncontrollably, and he hurriedly ran over and knelt in front of the Tieshan monk, calling him Master.

The Tieshan monk opened his eyes and looked at him, and asked, "Ding'er, why did you come back? Didn't you go to Hetian Town alone yesterday?" Shangguan Ding said: "Master, disciple ...... Put the plate ......"

The Tieshan monk said: "You don't have to say any more, do you raise your head and see if you can know this?"

Shangguan Ding raised his head and looked at it, and smirked. It turned out that the things that the Tieshan monk showed Shangguan Ding were Pangu Xiao, pills, and his own money bag.

Shangguan Ding laughed a few times and said, "Master was originally picked up by you. The Tieshan monk said: "I didn't pick it up, I stole it." ”

Shangguan Ding was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and Tieshan Jushi continued: "I knew that you must be alone and in a hurry to go to Hetian Town, so I stole your belongings while you were on your way. Now that there are many talented people in martial arts, even Master I dare not say that the world is invincible, and you, a fledgling child, dare to be so imprudent. I have taught you this principle many times, but at this time, can you remember it clearly?"

Shangguan Ding said: "Disciple remember, disciple knows that he is wrong. ”

Tieshan monk said: "I said that among the three of you senior brothers, you are the most reassuring to me, so I followed you all the way." And I have important things to do, so it is inconvenient for me to go to Hetian Town with you. I have never been relieved that you are alone, so I deliberately keep you. You yourself went a day ahead of Guo Jian and the others, and you were on foot, although you were able to do it, but you could ride a horse a few days faster than others? And you are not familiar with the road, counting the time of walking the blind road, you may not arrive before the two of them. ”

Shangguan Ding knelt there and said, "Master, the disciple knows, I will go back to find the two of them and go with them." ”

The Tieshan monk said: "You don't have to go back to look for it, you wait here for a while, and the two of them will arrive, and I have prepared a horse for you in the forest behind me, and you can ride with him." ”

Shangguan Ding's eyes were moist again, he didn't expect his master to think so well for himself. After the Tieshan monk finished speaking, he jumped down from the big rock, said a few more words to Shangguan Ding, and then went on the road alone.

Shangguan Ding took his belongings and came to the forest, and saw a horse. Shangguan Ding was full of joy, and as soon as he got out of the forest, he saw Guo Jian and the others coming on the road, so the three of them walked together.

Shangguan Ding secretly admired the Tieshan monk as he walked, and he couldn't see when the master was practicing on weekdays, and he always saw him sitting in front of the Buddha all day and night, not moving. I didn't expect my body and reaction ability to be so fast, and I didn't know when my father took something from him.
