8. Old friends
Fang Zun was waiting to ask clearly, and Xiao Jinshu had already said goodbye.
Shen Qianxin saw that Fang Zun was at a loss again, but he seemed to be confident, and said: "Without further ado, hurry up and go to the Kaizhi Hall, and see the Daoist who is not stupid, it is better to visit the Void Daoist as soon as possible to detoxify." ”
Fang Zun had no choice but to follow Shen Qianxin out of the pavilion and continue on the road.
The Kaizhi Hall was not far from the pavilion, and when Xiao Jinshu pointed to the Kaizhi Hall in the pavilion, he could see that Fang Zun and the others had already arrived outside the door of the Kaizhi Hall after less than a cup of tea.
With the experience of the Pingfeng Hall, Fang Zun originally wanted to find a Dao Tong to inquire first, but he saw that this Kaizhi Hall was silent, and there was no one left and right.
Shen Qianxin and Fang Zun searched around the Kaizhi Hall, but there was no one to see.
Fang Zun saw that there was no one around, and he was overjoyed, thinking that Xiao Jinshu just said that he was not stupid and Dao Chang was in the Kaizhi Hall today, most of which was a lie, and it happened that there was no one here, so it was better to go up the mountain directly. Shen Qianxin also thought so in his heart at this time.
After the two looked at each other, they tacitly walked up the stone steps next to the Kaizhi Hall towards the mountain.
Unexpectedly, when they first arrived at the entrance of the stone steps leading to the mountain in the Kaizhi Hall, the spiritual light flashed in front of the two of them, and the spiritual light flashed out a layer of airflow, and suddenly bounced over from the front, bouncing Fang Zun and Shen Qianxin back heavily.
Fang Zun staggered back, unable to support his strength, and almost fell, only to feel a slight pain in his chest, relieved a few breaths, and it was simply fine.
After Shen Qianxin settled, he pulled Fang Zun to take another step forward, and when he reached the place where Fang had just bounced back, he sped up his pace again and ran for a few battles. When the airflow appeared, it was a flash of spiritual light, and the two of them bounced back again, but this time the force of the bounce back was a little greater than last time, Fang Zun faintly felt that the pain in his chest was unbearable, and he sat on the ground and gasped for a while, and then gradually eased up.
Shen Qianxin had some cultivation in the end, but he just took a few steps back, stabilized his figure, and just looked ahead and didn't dare to act rashly.
The road to the mountain through the Kaizhi Hall was already in front of them, and there was nothing in front of them, but every time they went to the steps, a powerful air current surged out and bounced them back.
Shen Qianxin leaned over and picked up a stone and threw it forward, but saw that the stone did not hinder it, Shen Qianxin had enough strength, and the stone flew forward for dozens of feet, and there was no air flow to block it.
The two of them were suspicious in their hearts, although they were blocked back by the air flow twice, but seeing the stone flying out at a gallop, they were not reconciled, and stepped forward again, just to the place where the air flow was agitated before, and another wave of air erupted, but this time the air flow was more fierce than the previous two times, Fang Zun was ejected a few zhang away, and Shen Qianxin was also knocked to the ground.
Before the two of them got up, they saw the spiritual light in front of them flicker again, flashing with a white light, and when the white light dissipated, a white-robed Taoist suddenly appeared. This Taoist has white eyebrows, a firm face, sitting on the ground, and a chessboard in front of him, on which the Chu River and Han are clearly divided, and the black and red arrays are arranged, as if it is an endgame of chess.
At this time, Shen Qianxin saw the Taoist appear, looked at it, and was overjoyed, so he simply stopped getting up and sat on the ground and watched the Taoist solve the mess.
Fang Zun endured the severe pain, he couldn't stop coughing because of the air current, he struggled to get up, and when he saw Shen Qianxin sitting motionless on the ground, he stepped forward and said, "May I ask the immortals, but are you not stupid?"
Although Fang Zun was not a cultivator, he obviously felt that the three aircurrents were gradually increasing, and this Dao person was very handy, although the pain was in pain, he was also merciful, and his body was fine. Just now, the spiritual light flashed and the white light flashed in front of him, this kind of cultivation is like not being greedy and not hateful.
It's just that Fang Zun greeted him, and the Taoist didn't raise his head, still taking care of the endgame by himself, ignoring Fang Zun's greetings.
Fang Zun stepped forward and looked at the endgame. Black's pawns force the palace, and if there is another black rook, it can sink to the bottom and eat the general, as if it was a one-step kill. The red side of the two horses formed a hanging angle, the bicycle was on the riverside, and a cannon sank to the bottom.
Fang Zun raised his voice and asked again: "May I ask the immortals, but are you not stupid?"
The white-clothed Taoist still did not answer, as if he had thought of a clever move, the red horse forward, called the general, the front of the car and the cannon after the continuous call of the general, down to twelve or thirteen steps, the white-clothed Taoist shook his head again and again, as if he was not very satisfied, seeing that the red side could not call the general continuously, at this time the black side only needed one step to kill, which in the chess endgame, the red convenience was lost.
The white-clothed Taoist was very annoyed, pulled a few handfuls of hair, and restored the endgame to its original appearance, bowing his head in contemplation.
Fang Zun touched his nose, seeing this person's cultivation height, he ignored himself, and had to look back at Shen Qianxin.
Shen Qianxin had already gotten up at this time, walked to the side of the white-clothed Taoist, and said to Fang Zun: "Don't worry, he is not stupid." ”
Fang Zun asked Shen Qianxin, "Do you know him?"
Shen Qianxin nodded silently, his eyes were in a trance, and there seemed to be a thousand words in his chest, but he wanted to speak and stopped.
Don't be stupid and bow your head to think about the chess game, and from time to time your right hand is changing on the chessboard, and you are really fascinated. Fang Zun saw that Shen Qianxin was not in a hurry at all, so he simply stopped urging and looked at the chess game in front of him to relieve his boredom.
The idiot solved a few more rounds, but in the end, the red side could not connect the generals, so he had to give up. Fang Zun wanted to come forward to talk several times, but was stopped by Shen Qianxin, Shen Qianxin said: "If you are not stupid, how can you be called not stupid." If he is in the middle of his mind, even if the heavens and the earth are torn apart, he will not be distracted. ”
After about an hour or two, the unobsessive Taoist suddenly danced with his eyebrows, raised his chess pieces, double-horse chains, high-profile cannons, and single-handed soldiers, and finally checkmate Black after 36 moves in a row.
Only then did he laugh out loud, got up and turned his head to look at Fang Zun and the others.
Without waiting for Fang Zun to speak, Shen Qianxin resolutely stepped forward and said, "Don't be stupid, don't come to harm!"
Not stunned, stared at Shen Qianxin and said, "Brother Qianxin, it's you!
Fang Zun thought to himself, it turned out that the two knew each other.
The two reminisced, and Shen Qianxin said: "I haven't seen each other for nearly fifty years, and I haven't been foolish about cultivating a lot." It just appeared in front of my eyes in an instant, and I was really scared. The non-idiotic Taoist waved his hand again and again and said: "Brother Qianxin smiled, it was originally a small skill of carving insects in the light technique, and it was not enough to worry about it." ”
Shen Qianxin explained his intentions, as if he wanted to ask him to open up the long net and let him go up the mountain.
Fang Zun had always had a doubt in his heart, Void Mountain was originally authentic and upright, and it was not difficult for him and Shen Qianxin to go up the mountain to seek healing, why did these Dao Masters all obstruct it, but they were unwilling?
Seeing Shen Qianxin open his mouth to ask for help, he said with a sad face: "It's really not a secret, after the last Xianxia Conference, hey...... You know what happened. Since then, my master has led me to open the door and set up a sect, and there is this mountain of nothingness. However, after the establishment of the sect, my master has been a little inconvenient, although my Void Mountain is not long, but the master's prestige has been hundreds of years, the number of people who have asked for pills and medicines in the past few decades have not been very numerous, a few of us are afraid of disturbing the master, and my third junior brother and the fourth junior brother have a lot of discord, the fourth junior brother is too finely calculated, and it is inevitable that the senior brother who gets along with the same family for a long time will have some calculations, so he will build a Taoist temple residence in turn on this Void Mountain, so that the future people can be sent away one by one, don't provoke the master Qingxiu. Second, my brothers and sisters can live separately, although they are more divided and less gathered, but after all, there is a lot less right and wrong. ”
Shen Qianxin has known each other for a long time, and at the last Xianxia Conference, Shen Qianxin made it easy for him to know the non-idiotic Taoist and the Void Daoist. At that time, the Void Dao Leader had not yet created the Void Sect, and at that time, the Void Dao Chief, who was an elder of Mount Meru, took his beloved disciples to participate in the last Xianxia Conference, and met Shen Qianxin by mistake.
Therefore, although Shen Qianxin and the other Dao Elders did not know each other, they were old friends with the Void Dao Elders and the Non-Idiotic Dao Chiefs. It was only in the middle of the last Xianxia Conference that there were extraneous branches, which deepened the fate of Shen Qianxin and Bu Fool, and the Void Dao Chief also left Mount Meru and set up his own mountain, but in the end, the Xuanzong sect branched out.
Shen Qianxin was not stupid, he was happy, he had nothing to hide from himself, and he was also honest about his poisoning at the moment. The chief of the Daoist was embarrassed, and hesitated again and again: "I am afraid that you will not be able to see the family teacher when you go up this time, you said that the poisonous juice comes from the black mother-in-law of the Five Poisons Sect, then maybe the senior brother can also detoxify, you and I are old friends, I am inconvenient to stop you, you have gone up to the grass hall, and when you see the senior brother, you will explain in the future, whether the poison in the body can be solved, it depends on your own creation!"
Shen Qianxin was overjoyed when he heard that the Taoist chief promised to let him go up, and he clasped his hands into fists and said: "Thank you Dao Chang, I haven't seen you for almost fifty years, and you are still so chivalrous." ”
He waved his hand again and again and said: "In the past few decades, due to the inconvenience of our family teachers, the four of us brothers have intercepted many people who seek medical advice at the foot of the mountain, which has indeed offended many friends in the rivers and lakes. ”
Fang Zun didn't expect Shen Qianxin to know Bu Idiot, and when he heard that Bu Idiot was willing to let them go, he was indeed overjoyed, but when he heard that he might not be able to see nothingness, his heart sank again.
Don't be stupid to see that it's getting late, leave Shen Qianxin and the two to stay, and it's not too late to hurry tomorrow. Shen Qianxin saw that the night was dark, and he didn't shirk it, so he lived in the Kaizhi Hall.
Bu Idiot arranged for Dao Tong to arrange an abbot for Shen Qianxin and Fang Zun, Fang Zun went to bed early after eating fast, but Shen Qianxin kept talking to Bu Zun in the hall until late before going to sleep.
The next day, as soon as it was dawn, Shen Qianxin prepared for Fang Zun to set off.
Bu Zhi personally said goodbye, and when he said goodbye to the Kaizhi Hall, he said: "There are three peaks in Void Mountain, which are Yuxu Peak, Lingjiu Peak, and Tongtian Peak. These three peaks are higher than one peak, and now where you and I are is the lowest Yuxu Peak among the three peaks, and the Kaizhi Hall is the elder brother's Ran Grass Hall on the top, and the Ran Grass Hall is the Jade Void Peak again, and the family teacher is on the top of the Jade Void Peak. I can only help you get here, and the rest depends on your creation!"
Fang Zun kept the situation of the Void Mountain firmly in his heart, and said goodbye to Shen Qianxin together, and went straight to Ran Tang along the mountain road. Since the Kaizhi Hall came up, the mountain road became narrower and narrower, the soles of the feet were slippery, and there was even nowhere to put your feet.
The two of them walked forward quickly, and in the past few days, the poisoned place gradually became numb, especially Fang Zun, and his back seemed to have a feeling of swelling, but the toxicity was getting deeper and deeper. The iron thistle terrestris in him was highly poisonous, and it came out of Shen Qianxin's body, and the residual toxicity was not very large, if it weren't for that, Fang Zun would have died a long time ago.
Sanjin Hall, Pingfeng Hall, and Kaizhi Hall came all the way, and occasionally Daotong passed by, but after coming up from Kaizhi Hall, the road was indeed more and more barren and inaccessible.
The two walked until noon, and finally saw a thatched cottage in the distance. In front of the thatched hall stood a person with an expressionless face, one side of the face was like an ordinary person, and the other side of the face seemed to be burnt, and it was like a withered petal, which was very terrifying.
