Chapter 51: Up the Mountain

Early the next morning, when Zhang Jingsheng was still asleep, he was woken up by a rapid knock on the door. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"Bang Bang Bang ......" "Bang Bang Bang ......"

"Ah Sheng, Ah Sheng, get up and eat, you said you were going to take us to Tianqingguan in the morning, why haven't you gotten up yet?

In a haze, Zhang Jingsheng heard his mother Su Jiuniang outside the door, banging on the door panel, and screaming loudly.

"Bang bang bang ......" "Bang bang bang ......" With another knock on the door, Zhang Jingsheng had to get up and get dressed and go to open the door.

Just as he pulled the bolt, the door was pushed in by someone outside. Zhang Jingsheng hurriedly took a few steps back to the side, and then heard a "bang-" sound, the door and the wall made a bang, and the dust on the wall flew up.

Zhang Jingsheng was glad that he flashed fast just now, otherwise if he was touched by the door, he would have a blue nose and swollen forehead for a while.

When the door opened, he saw that his father and mother were standing in front of his door, and it was his father who pushed the door, Zhang Jingsheng was confused, and then asked: "What are you doing? What are you doing here? It's early in the morning, and the sun hasn't come out yet? Why are you telling me to get up so early?"

"You also said, didn't you promise to take us to Tianqingguan last night, so we discussed for a night, if you go early, are the guards guarding the checkpoint also sleeping? So before dawn, I will ask your mother to get up and cook breakfast, so you can go to Tianqingguan early." Zhang Dazhong said proudly.

"You ...... Are you really going to Tianqingguan?

"Go and freshen up, Xian is done eating, don't be verbose, you personally promised us last night, and you must have been fully prepared to go to bed so early last night. Su Jiuniang said smugly.

Zhang Jingsheng wanted to argue at this time, but he was afraid of knowing that they knew about Qi Prison and Xiao Man, so he had to pretend to be very helpless and asked, "Do you really want to go? If you are driven down halfway, you can't blame me?"

"Don't be verbose, young people are quick with their hands and feet, go and freshen up!" Su Jiuniang believed that Zhang Jingsheng would take them to heaven to celebrate.

Zhang Jingsheng had to freshen up as fast as he could, and then went to the kitchen to eat, just finished eating, and before he put down the dishes and chopsticks, he only heard Su Jiuniang say outside: "The two of you came so early today, have you heard about eating?"

Zhang Jingsheng was curious, who came to his house early in the morning? He hurriedly came out of the kitchen to take a look outside, and it turned out that Qi Lao and Xiao Man saw them standing next to Su Jiuniang and greeting each other.

I only heard Su Jiuniang say to them gratefully: "It's really hard for the two of you to come to my house to help for so many days, and I haven't had a meal at my house, so I don't want to go." Now that Ah Sheng has woken up, the two of you don't need to come, oh, that's wrong, I want to say that the two of you can just come over to play, but you don't need to come over to help anymore. ā€

"Auntie, what are you talking about, stick a knife in your friend's ribs, your friend is in trouble, you must come to help, what's polite, Ah Sheng's business is my business, this is what I should do. He hurriedly excused himself.

"Oh, by the way, our pharmacy is not going to open today, because now our family is going to Tianqingguan, go to have a good time, maybe we can see the immortals, since the two of you are here, why don't you go with us?

Xiao Man pretended to be very happy, and clapped his hands and said: "Go to Tianqingguan, okay, let's go with you, I heard that there are a few immortals on it in the past few days, and I am also about to go to see it, go and join in the fun." Zhang Jingsheng listened to their conversation on the side, forced himself to laugh, and almost laughed out loud!

"Great, then let's go now, Ah Sheng, close the door and go!" Su Jiuniang instructed Zhang Jingsheng. After closing the door, a group of five people walked through the dense sycamore forest, talking and laughing towards Tianluo Peak. ...,

At this time, it was still early, and there was a thin layer of morning fog in the mountains, and the mountains in the distance were shrouded in morning fog, which looked a little hazy, the sun had not yet risen, and there was still unevaporated dew on the grass on the ground, and a gust of mountain wind blew through, making people feel a little cool.

Tianluo Peak is the highest peak of Taiping Mountain, steep and rugged, that day Qingguan is on the top of this mountain, it is said that this Tianqingguan has been there a long time ago, and I don't know that the monk lived in seclusion here to build, and then quietly became the only Taoist temple in a radius of hundreds of miles in this Taiping Mountain.

There is only one road leading to the top of the mountain from the foot of the mountain, in the early years it was paved with stones one by one, and later the monarch of the Dongou Kingdom heard that this temple prayer was very effective, in order to ask for the immortal to ask, so he ordered to change this road to a wide and large bluestone slab stone steps, which is the appearance of seeing now, that time was really a waste of money and money, and it took seven or eight years to repair, and many people were tired to death.

Zhang Jingsheng and his people waited to climb the steps to go up the mountain, and on the way they also met several people who came down from the mountain, and saw that Zhang Jingsheng and his people were going to Tianqingguan, so they persuaded them not to go, because they went halfway up the mountain, and were driven down by the officers and soldiers guarding the sentry post, and it is said that the mountain is now overcrowded.

Zhang Dazhong and Su Jiuniang began to shake a little when they saw so many people coming down, saying that they didn't want to go up any further, Zhang Jingsheng persuaded: "Dad, mother, don't be discouraged, we haven't reached the halfway point yet, maybe these people are unlucky, or they came down when they saw the officers and soldiers scared." ā€

Zhang Dazhong sighed and said: "Okay, it's all here, let's go up first, let's not give up halfway, even if you are really driven down, it should be considered as exercising your muscles and bones." So the five went on to the mountain.

After walking for about half an hour, they finally reached the halfway point of the mountain, but Zhang Jingsheng and the others saw a small wooden house in front of them from a distance, which looked like it had just been built, and in front of the wooden house stood more than a dozen officers and soldiers, all carrying a big knife, lined up in the middle of the mountain road, making the mountain road suddenly seem crowded.

Zhang Dazhong and Su Jiuniang saw the wooden house and these officers and soldiers from afar, so they hurriedly stopped, Su Jiuniang said to Zhang Jingsheng: "Ouch, it's really in vain, look, there are really people guarding here, why did they all get up so early, didn't they sleep all night? Alas, it's all because we don't believe in people's words, this time it's good, it's really in vain, ouch...... I'm tired to death, let's sit on the stone steps and rest for a while, and when I get my breath, let's go home!" After finishing speaking, he sat down on the stone steps, and when Zhang Dazhong saw this, he also sat down on the stone steps, took out the pipe he brought with him, and smoked it.
