Chapter 55: The faint cold mountain temple, the bell is in the twilight

Zhao Hanqing ordered the disciples of each faction to send more people to patrol back, and there was nothing wrong that night. At noon the next day, the disciples of each faction have arrived at the foot of Mount Tai, so they have no danger to defend by going back to Huashan and Hengshan, and it is expected that there is no danger from now on, Zhao Hanqing and his disciples of Hengshan, Hengshan, Huashan, and Songshan are saying goodbye, and they have a smooth journey, and they want to go back to the mountain, and suddenly heard that the disciples of each faction have run to the river, scooping water to quench their thirst, Zhao Hanqing saw that the heads of the various factions did not care, faintly worried, what if there was a problem in the water, but look at the river water is crystal clear, the fish in the water are flying to and fro, thinking about no big problem, and the heart is a little settled.

At that time, the day was hot, the weather was hot, and the rest of the disciples sat on the grass to rest, and when they saw that the brothers and sisters had drunk the river water, they all drank it together, and suddenly several disciples exclaimed: "There are so many dead fish! Hey, why is there so much foam in the river, this water can't be drunk!" At this time, only a dozen or so people had not drunk the river water, and the rest had already filled their stomachs with river water. Everyone heard the shout, looked at the river together, couldn't help but be stunned, the original clear and clear river water at this time as boiling like a white bubble, the fish in the water straight straight over the white belly, everyone was shocked, suddenly the two of them snorted, fell to the ground, and then knock knock, and there was a ** person fell, the person with a very fast brain immediately realized: "Not good, the water is poisonous, we can get the way!" But before the words were finished, they all fell to the ground, and in an instant, Hengshan, Huashan, Songshan, Except for the dozen or so disciples of the various factions of Hengshan who had not drunk the river water, the rest of the people had been poisoned and collapsed, and the dozen or so disciples probed left and right, and saw that the fellow disciples and brothers were unconscious, and there was no way at all, and they panicked.

Zhao Hanqing said secretly: "The river water was still clear and clean just now, why did it suddenly bubble up." "When I checked the pulse of one of them, I saw that his pulse was disordered and the poison was deep, but I couldn't figure out what kind of poison it was. I went over to check on the rest of the people, and they were all like this, and said in my heart: "If the Southern Heaven Demon Lord arrives at this time, won't the disciples of the four sects sit back and wait for their lives?" Zhao Hanqing followed the prestige, and couldn't help but be happy, that person was the sick face divine doctor Dugu Chu who had previously detoxified the disciples of various factions, and hurriedly arched his hand and said: "The divine doctor is just right here, and one of my senior brothers is a mandala?" Dugu Chu said: "The Wuyue Sword Sect has sent such a catastrophe, can I not come? It's a pity that the promise I made with Xiaoxiang Daxia was ruined." Zhao Hanqing knew that Xiaoxiang Daxia was the white-haired old man who defeated Shi Potian and Black Songzi alone, and asked: "What promise did you and Su seniors make?" Dugu Chu's face was ashamed, and said: "Xiaoxiang Daxia secretly learned that the good hands of all factions in Wuyue were poisoned by Shi Potian, and entrusted me to detoxify them one by one, I boasted about Haikou at that time, and said that if one person died at the Taishan Conference, then my name as a sick face miracle doctor could be revoked, who knows...... Alas!" Zhao Hanqing saw him rescue the Wuyue faction in this way, his heart was full of admiration and excitement, and he said: "The divine doctor has taken such care of my Wuyue Sword Sect, and the younger generation is grateful. Dugu Chu waved his hand and said: "I can't do anything, the word miracle doctor has to be mentioned again." He walked over and probed the pulse of a Huashan disciple lying on the ground, and said, "Sure enough, it's Mandala San!" Zhao Hanqing said: "What is Mandala San?" Dugu Chu said: "Mandala San is a poison secretly made by the King of Simmering Poison, mainly mandala, and then mixed with seven kinds of drugs such as angelica and realgar. Zhao Hanqing nodded and said, "Then why did the disciples of each faction fall to the ground after drinking the river water?" Dugu Chu smiled: "Isn't this simple, when the simmering poison king calculated correctly, he poisoned the river half a day in advance, this mandala scatter also has one powerful thing, that is, the poison lingers, as long as he scatters it like this near the water's edge near the shore, let you wash the turbulent water for ten days and a half months, it will not disperse." Zhao Hanqing said: "I see, no wonder I saw the fish and shrimp jumping around at first, and they died of foaming in a flash, and it was also because of this?" Dugu Chu said: "Pole to pole, Shi Potian really expected the enemy plane first, if the fish turned over before you arrived, this trick would not work!" As he spoke, he opened the medicine box, took out a cyan medicine bottle from it, pulled out the stopper and sniffed it, the disciples of various factions slept in the open air, some brought their own pots and stoves, took the shelf, and scooped half a pot of water upstream, the dead fish in the water had been washed downstream, and the upstream mandala could not spread, but it was okay. Dugu Chu picked up some dry firewood, lit a fire, poured half of the bottle of Chinese medicine into the pot, and soon the medicinal soup boiled, the medicine was pervasive, scooped out, there were seven or eight bowls, and said to Zhao Hanqing: "I'm tired of feeding these people, one spoonful each." Zhao Hanqing took the medicine bowl and said, "It should be." "Taishan sent all the disciples and Huashan, Hengshan not poisoned disciples to work together, to poisoned each person poured a spoonful of medicinal soup, after a tea hour, the disciples of each faction have woken up, learned that it is Shi Potian from the obstruction, all gritted their teeth, can't stop scolding, Hengshan sent more than a dozen disciples with swords and roared, clamoring to find Shi Potian to fight to the death, and later persuaded a few older brothers to stop, so that they did not break into trouble. Dugu Chu said: "The simmering poison king has exhausted the mechanism, presumably it is in the chest, I think you have been poisoned and fainted, this time will soon come to clean up the mess, this place is not suitable for a long time, you better leave quickly." Zhao Hanqing thought about it, although the King of Simmering Poison is not difficult to deal with, but it will inevitably cause a lot of trouble, if Shi Potian is also on the side, it will be even more difficult, and said: "The senior reminded that everyone should go back to the mountain, guard the door, and beware of Shi Potian's attack." The disciples of the four factions thanked each other, said goodbye again, and went back to the mountain separately.

Luo Xiao said: "It turns out that you have encountered so many troubles later, which is much worse than me going straight to Treasure Island." Speaking of Treasure Island, I suddenly remembered the warbler, the face of the beautiful fairy, tender and sweet, I couldn't help but be fascinated, and said in my heart: "Yingying, I miss you so much, will you miss me too?" Zhao Hanqing did not pay attention, continued: "Later, when I returned to Mount Tai, I sent a number of disciples out to investigate, but I was still not at ease, and finally I went to look for it with all my junior brothers, and traveled all over Mount Tai, even the ravines and dangerous valleys that were difficult to stand on have been found, but I didn't see the trace of the master, and found the foot of the mountain, and found the valley opposite the top of the mountain, but I didn't find anything. ”

Luo Xiao saw that his brows were deeply furrowed, and comforted: "Big brother, don't worry too much, since you can't find it in the valley, it means that the master is still alive, but he hasn't returned to the mountain yet." Zhao Hanqing sighed and said: "I hope so, when I saw the charter and Zhuo Feilong's junior disciples, I asked why I didn't want to come, and they all said that the heads and elders of each faction were nowhere to be found after the Taishan Conference, and the Taishan Society was in charge of our faction, and there was such a big mess, I am really ashamed of the Wuyue Sword Sect!" Luo Xiao suddenly remembered the incident of the Plum Blossom Village, and said: "You said that the Huashan Sect has not returned to the mountain even though Yun Wanli has not returned to the mountain? The younger brother once saw him in the Plum Blossom Village, he was imprisoned by the owner of the Plum Blossom Village, and later Uncle Su rescued him. Zhao Hanqing was overjoyed when he heard this, grabbed Luo Xiao's hand and said, "Really, Uncle Yun has been out of trouble?" Luo Xiao said: "Later, Master Yun said goodbye, I don't know where he went, and Uncle Su also went to him. Zhao Hanqing said: "It's okay, come on, let's do another bowl." "it with Luo Xiao. At this time, Zhao Hanqing and Luo Xiao drank forty or fifty bowls of spirits, if you measure by the wine glass, there are no less than a thousand glasses, as the saying goes: "Wine is less than a thousand cups for a confidant." Zhao Hanqing and Luo Xiao hit it off at first sight, although they were getting drunk, but they drank more and more, until the restaurant closed, they still hugged the wine jar, entered the room and drank, the two talked for a long time that night, and said nothing, Zhao Hanqing inherently hated each other, Luo Xiao made a big brother, and he was no longer alone, but also joyful, and he really wanted to spit out with him if he had something to say.

Early the next morning, Wang Xueqing came in with washing water, and found that the two of them were lying on the bed, and the wine jar was still close to their mouths and still wanted to drink again, but the people were already asleep, so she couldn't help but laugh, changed their clothes full of wine, pushed the door out, put the clothes in the bucket, picked up Zhao Hanqing's wine clothes and smelled them, the smell of wine was tangy, and there was a smell of men's sweat, and murmured: "Drink and drink, you know to drink, senior brother, you don't take good care of your body, you get drunk all day long, do you know how much pain is in someone's heart?" Now it's okay, with Brother Luo to drink with you, you will be happy to drink every day. Well, as long as you're happy in your heart, I'm so happy. Saying that, he smiled sweetly, put his clothes wet on the washboard and scrubbed them, and said with a light smile: "He finally smiled at me, for so many years, we have practiced sword and drank together, and I have never seen him smile like this." After being happy for a while, he frowned again, stopped his hand, and asked, "But did he really care about me?" He may just be out of gratitude, senior brother, senior brother, don't you really know what little junior sister has for you?"

Zhao Hanqing and Luo Xiao woke up, saw each of them falling asleep, and laughed relatively loudly, one called: "Good virtuous brother!" and the other said: "Big brother." Zhao Hanqing said: "I have the heavy responsibility of looking for a teacher, I have to run around, I don't know if the virtuous brother has anything important, can I accompany the eldest brother?" Luo Xiao said gloomily: "I want to find my parents, but I have no clue, I can't find it." Zhao Hanqing said: "In this case, you might as well go with the eldest brother, maybe the eldest brother can still make some modest efforts, and when everything is over, then publish a heroic post, and invite fellow martial artists from all factions to find it together, this matter should not be difficult." Luo Xiao was overjoyed and said, "Thank you big brother for your love." Zhao Hanqing laughed and said, "Thank you, get on the boat." Luo Xiao said: "Get on the boat?" Zhao Hanqing said: "Yes, get on the boat, drink!" Luo Xiao was shocked and said: "Still drinking?" Zhao Hanqing said: "Brother Xian drank an amazing amount last night, isn't it today?" Luo Xiao secretly wondered that he was drunk yesterday, how can he still swallow the cow today? But he still said: "Since the eldest brother loves to drink, the younger brother should accompany him." Zhao Hanqing laughed and walked out with him. It turned out that the drunken immortal building was close to Futou, not only doing wine and meat business, but also as a passenger ship, carrying businessmen, Zhao Hanqing and Luo Xiao, Sun Lihui, Zhou Zhaozhong and others walked into the ship, helped the boatman put away the anchor, and put on the wine and meat to eat and drink, but at this time it was just a drink, not like a big bowl of drink yesterday, Sun Lihui, Zhou Zhaozhong and others were on the side again, Luo Xiao enjoyed the scenery along the river, while asking about the interesting stories in the martial arts, with relish, unconsciously the light boat had crossed the Wanzhong Mountain, to the outside of Gusu City, seeing that the sun had gone west, Zhao Hanqing took out a piece of silver and paid it to the boatman, the boatman was busy talking too much, Zhao Hanqing said: "There is a labor boatman, there is no need to look for it." Landing ashore with Luo Xiao, he suddenly saw a temple on the distant mountain in flames, the bell kept ringing, I don't know what was going on, Zhao Hanqing pulled Luo Xiao's hand and said, "Let's go, take a look." "And Luo Xiao five people went straight to the temple, the temple was hidden in the woods, walked closer, saw the temple door inscription "Hanshan Temple" three words, more than ten people surrounded in front of the temple, lit a bunch of fire, more than 20 gray-robed monks in front of the temple each raised the crescent shovel of the eyebrow stick in front of the solemn stand in front, the first an old monk, the eyebrows are half white, the right hand is together, the left hand is holding the Buddha beads, and the Buddha name is announced: "Amitabha." Said: "The person the old donor wants is not in the temple, why are you pestering?" There were more than ten people with strange clothes standing next to the fire, and the leader was an old woman who was over the age of six, Luo Xiao saw that the fire was also blue and green, and whispered to Zhao Hanqing: "Big brother, they are from the Five Poisons Sect." Zhao Hanqing said: "Five Poison Sect?" Although he often walks in the rivers and lakes, the Five Poison Sect rarely sets foot in the Central Plains, so he doesn't know, Luo Xiao nodded and said: "That old woman is called Jinhua Granny." ”

It turned out that the old woman was Granny Jinhua, and the old monk standing opposite was Master Miaokong, the abbot of Hanshan Temple. Jinhua's mother-in-law said: "You hid people, and you said no, and said that your family doesn't speak, hehe, funny, funny." Man Miao said: "The person the donor is looking for is really not in the temple, please go back." Mother-in-law Jinhua snorted: "The boss has a temple, but there is a young girl hidden, this is the so-called strict precepts?" Miaokong said: "My temple has always only accepted male apprentices, where are there any women?"
