Chapter 306: Ambush
Wu Mingzhi is a lay disciple of Wudang, but Qingfeng Dao Changnian has a good understanding, and he also taught him a lot of Wudang mastery, and collected alchemy pills for him, so as to have today's merits. At this time, Wu Mingzhi heard Master Wukong praise himself, and his young and smooth face was also full of smiles, without the slightest hint of gratitude.
Master Wukong and the others were in front, so naturally they didn't see it. But Qingfeng Daoist was right next to him, and when he saw his appearance, he couldn't help but say with a little anger: "Mingzhi, my Taoist pays attention to honesty and modesty, and must not be arrogant and complacent!"
"Yes, Master, keep in mind Master's teachings!" Wu Mingzhi actually bowed slightly and bowed in the process of running.
Master Wukong in front of him felt it, and said, "Haha! Ming Zhixian's nephew knows etiquette and etiquette, and the Taoist master has really accepted a good apprentice!"
Qingfeng Dao Chang and Master Wukong naturally didn't notice that Wu Mingzhi in the night had a disdainful look after bowing down. Qingfeng Dao Chang also replied politely, and the group chatted while running.
After running for another stick of incense, everyone had already run another three or four miles, and when they crossed a hill in front of them, they saw a forest on the edge of the avenue not far away.
Monk Zhou You was blessed to the heart, and suddenly said, "Master, Daoist, can you pause?"
Hearing this, Master Wukong couldn't help but look at Zhou You and asked, "Zhou You, what have you discovered?" Master Wukong knew a lot about Zhou You, and knew that although this disciple seemed to be honest, he was really a wise and foolish person.
Since Zhou You entered the temple, Buddhism and martial arts have made rapid progress, among the disciples of the whole temple, they are really among the top three, even if they are no immortal masters, they also say that the prosperity of Shaolin in the future should be on Zhou You.
Therefore, what Zhou You said solemnly at this time, even if Master Wukong is his master, he can't help but think about it. Zhou You saw that there were still more than 100 steps in the woods, and if he followed this kind of tutorial, he was afraid that he would arrive in less than a moment, so he simply didn't have time to answer and stopped.
Master Wukong was shocked when he saw this, and he also stopped.
Although Qingfeng Dao Chang didn't know what Zhou You was doing, but Master Wukong stopped, he could only stop with Wu Mingzhi helplessly.
Zhou participated in Zhou Ming, naturally he had no choice but to stop, among the five people, except for Wu Mingzhi, who was a little displeased, the other four people just looked at Zhou You a little strangely.
"Master, Qingfeng Dao Chief, Senior Brothers, Senior Brothers!" Zhou You couldn't help but salute when he saw that everyone had really stopped, and then said, "Now that the moon is dark and the wind is high, it is the best time for the activities of robbing the Dao strongmen and demonic people! Although the forest in front of it does not look big, there are no insects and birds chirping, I am afraid that something is wrong! It is the little monk who hopes that everyone can hurry up and be more vigilant!"
"Oh!" Zhou Shen nodded when he heard this, and said, "Senior Brother Zhou You said that there may be an ambush in the woods in front of you, hoping that we can bypass this woods?"
"That's right!" Zhou You nodded happily and said.
"Master Zhou You can't help but be worried!" Wu Mingzhi said nonchalantly, "That forest is next to the official road, I think it is a place for passers-by to enjoy the coolness, how can there be any robbers and thieves nesting there? Besides, with the martial arts of the six of us, not to mention ordinary thieves, even some small green forest bandits can be swept away in one go! Which bold thief dares to come and rob us, isn't this looking for death?"
Although Qingfeng Dao Chang also felt that Zhou You was a little too cautious, and what his disciple said was not bad, he was still born and scolded, "Bastard, Mingzhi, even if Zhou You is a little cautious, but after all, it is also for our safety, how can you say that!
After finishing speaking, the Qingfeng Dao Leader also bowed to Zhou You, and then said apologetically: "Zhou You, my disciple is a little lacking in discipline, and I ask Zhou You not to take it to heart!"
These words seem to look like a promising, as if blaming himself for being a disciple, but these words are actually saying that Zhou You should not be so cautious.
Master Wukong also frowned, and said: "Zhou You, if we don't take this official road, we can only take a detour, in this way, it will take at least one more hour to rush to Mount Tai, and at that time, I am afraid that the people of the Mount Tai faction will die!"
Seeing that his master didn't agree to change paths, Zhou You couldn't help but be a little anxious, he also saw that the silence of the forest was terrible, so he dissuaded him like this.
After all, although the six of them are masters, there are only six of them after all, if there is really an ambush in that forest, I am afraid that I and others will be in danger.
It's not that he's afraid of any danger to himself, it's just that he thinks that his master is old and his two junior brothers are not very old, so he can't bear to take risks.
Just as he was about to continue to persuade, the situation on Mount Tai changed, originally it was just the sound of fighting on the top of the Jade Emperor, but now it slowly turned into a mountain all over the field, all shouting and killing, and there were fires burning everywhere. When Master Wukong saw it, he couldn't help but change his face and said, "This ...... What's going on?"
Qingfeng Dao Chief's face also changed greatly, and he said: "The people of the Jade Emperor Sect of Mount Tai should all gather on the top of the Jade Emperor at this time, there can't be many other people up and down here! Now that such a situation has appeared, could it be that the Demon Sect is desperate and wantonly fighting!"
Wu Mingzhi also immediately said: "It is very likely that the Demon Sect is cruel and unkind, and it is the most ferocious! Now that the Taishan Sect has attacked them first, according to the Demon Sect's retribution, it is very likely that after killing the Taishan Sect, Wu Zi will not give up, and he wants to kill the civilians of Taishan to vent his anger!"
"What?" Although Zhou Shen was not very old, only sixteen or seventeen years old, his temperament was the most violent, and when he heard that the Tianyin Sect was likely to anger innocent ordinary people, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, like an angry King Kong, and said, "Does this Demon Sect thief really dare to be so cruel?"
"Whether it's so cruel or not!I'm afraid we won't have time to make a detour!" Master Wukong glanced at Zhou You with a worried look on his face, and said, "Zhou You, since you are worried about danger, it is better to do this, I and Qingfeng Dao Chang will take Mingzhi and Zhou Shen to walk in front, and you and Zhou Ming will walk behind!
Although Zhou You and Zhou Ming's martial arts are not as good as those of Master Wukong and Qingfeng Daochang, as strange soldiers, they can play a role in rescuing when they are in danger.
This can be regarded as a compromise solution! When Zhou You pondered for a moment, he glanced at the pieces of fire on Mount Tai again, and couldn't help but nod and said: "Just follow Master's method! It's just that Master and Qingfeng Dao Master are walking in front of each other, and they must be extremely careful, especially when passing by that forest!"
"Don't worry!" Seeing Zhou You's agreement, Master Wukong smiled confidently, took the lead in unfolding his body, and ran towards the forest not far away, Zhou Shen also glanced back at Zhou You, and said: "Senior brother, don't come slowly! Now the people of Li on Mount Tai are in dire straits, waiting for me to come to the rescue!"
"Okay! Zhou Shen, I know! You have to take care of yourself along the way, and when you pass by that forest, you must be careful!" Zhou You was not worried about the youngest junior brother, and couldn't help but babble again.
"Okay! I know! Senior brother, take care!" After finishing speaking, Zhou Shen chased after the three figures of Master Wukong who had already gone away without looking back, and then Zhou Ming stepped forward and asked, "Senior Brother Zhou You, are we following now?"
Zhou Ming is not very old, only about eighteen years old, but his understanding of martial arts is the best among the Shaolin Zhou generations.
After Master Wuxian accepted this apprentice, he praised everyone and loved it very much. It's just that although Zhou Ming has good martial arts, he has been in Shaolin Temple, and this time is the first time he has walked the rivers and lakes.
Master Wuxian was thinking that he was just coming to Mount Tai to observe, and there were two masters, Wukong and Qingfeng, so he naturally didn't have to worry about the safety of this visit.
Looking at this bright-eyed and unfamiliar junior disciple, Zhou You looked helpless for a while, and said: "Let's not take the official road!
"Huh?" Zhou Ming asked inexplicably, "Then if you don't take the official road, where should you go? Isn't there only one road here?"
"Where to go?" Zhou You rolled his eyes, pointed to the half-human-high weeds on the side of the official road, and said, "Let's bow down from here and run over slowly, if Master and they are in danger, we will wait for the opportunity to rescue, if not, we won't waste much time in the past!"
"But......" Zhou Ming was a little at a loss, and was still about to say something, but Zhou You grabbed Zhou Ming's arm and said, "Okay! My good junior brother, time is pressing now, if you continue to talk like this, Master and they will all run through the woods! Come with me, don't say more!"
After finishing speaking, he directly pulled Zhou Ming into the half-human-high grass beside the road, lowered his body, and crawled forward.
......
But it was said that Master Wukong was worried about Taishan, and after saying goodbye to Zhou You, he ran all the way, which was less than half a mile away, but for a master like him, it was just a flick of his fingers.
It's just that he doesn't want his apprentice to be embarrassed after all, and he has already walked slowly, so he can't help but be a little wary of the woods.
Qingfeng Dao Chang and the others also kept up with Master Wukong's pace unhurriedly, and when everyone entered the woods all the way vigilantly, there were no problems, but after taking two more steps, Wu Mingzhi was sneering and said, "Hehe! Senior Brother You is really making a big fuss this week, we have passed more than half of the forest, but it is still ......."
"Be careful!" Zhou Shen hit his head on Wu Mingzhi, who was talking with his head up, knocked him down, and couldn't help but fall to the ground, Wu Mingzhi was about to scold, when he felt that in the darkness, countless black lights shot from the place where he had just stood.
