Chapter 35 Zhuge Meteor
(Bow and thank ID: Bihuang Tianluo Daoyou 1600 starting coins to help out!I will continue to work hard!Thank you!)
The night breeze is gentle, and the moon is cold.
At this moment, Yuan Bao re-evaluated Chu Tianyun's cultivation and Taoism, and found that he had underestimated him before, and he was the number one disciple of the eight thousand disciples of Shushan who could use the Killing God Lead. has even surpassed the cultivation of Yuxuzi at this age.
At the same time, Yuan Bao also knew that Chu Tianyun performed this trick for himself to show his powerful cultivation.
Anyone who grows a face in front of the reincarnation sword technique inheritor is extremely face-saving and extremely proud.
After a long time, Yuan Bao retracted his gaze, glanced at Fang Ling'er beside him with a shocked face with his mouth wide open, smiled bitterly, and said, "Let's go." ”
Yuan Bao and Fang Ling'er rode horses and continued to go north, passing through the small forest that was flattened by Chu Tianyun, Yuan Bao deliberately slowed down his pace, and saw that all the big trees were cut off at the waist, and the stumps were about three feet from the ground.
After two more days, the two have not yet left the boundary of Xiangxi.
At noon on this day, on the wilderness ancient road where the two of them were walking on horseback, a towering Hengduan Mountain Range appeared in front of them, like a towering giant, lying on its side and sleeping, with no end in sight.
Yuan Bao pointed to the Hengduan Mountain, and the other party Ling'er said: "This should be the Yunshan Mountain Range, after passing the Yunshan Mountain, it will enter the Jiangxi boundary, not far from the Central Plains." ”
Jiangxi is famous for the west of the south of the Yangtze River. It is a typical land of water and rice, and it is also one of the three major granaries in the world. During the Tang Dynasty, Jiangxi was set up as a political envoy, and later in the Yuan Dynasty, Jiangxi was divided into several fiefdoms, and some places were under the jurisdiction of Jiangnan Province. Later, after Zhu Yuanzhang opened the world, he established Jiangxi Province and separated it from Jiangnan Province, and at the same time, in order to prevent the situation of the Tang Dynasty's political envoys separating the world, he set up a division of soldiers and horses to control the right of local patrols.
Fang Linger has followed her grandfather to live in the Yangtze River since she was a child, and when she saw the towering mountains in front of her, she was secretly surprised, and said: "According to ancient books, Yunshan Mountain spans two hundred miles, and it is actually a famous mountain in Xiangxi. It's really an eye-opener to see it today. ”
Yuan Bao smiled: "If we can't find a place to stay tonight, we will live in the mountains and enjoy this famous mountain and river." ”
Yunshan is famous for its cloud fruits.
Legend has it that in ancient times, a strange fruit was abundant in the mountains, and people ate it to drive away all kinds of diseases and live forever. Because the fruit is crystal clear, like amber, you can also see a faint mist wrapped around the fruit through the peel, like clouds, it is a cloud fruit.
Yuanbao is also quite relaxed at the moment, these days in the Xiangxi border walking, afraid of encountering Xiangxi corpse door, causing unnecessary trouble, now to the Xiangxi border, as long as the mountain is crossed, it will enter Jiangxi, the heart of the stone is gradually put down.
Wangshan ran dead horses, and when the two of them and a dog really entered the Yunshan Mountain Range, it was already late at night. From time to time, the roar of an unknown beast could be heard in the darkness, and the sound shook the four wilds, making people shudder.
The two found a small stream, and seeing that the moon was clear tonight and it would not rain, Yuan Bao planned to rest here.
Not long after, Rhubarb came back with game, lit a fire to make rice, and in the second half of the night, Yuan Bao sat cross-legged and practiced the reincarnation method, while Fang Ling'er held Rhubarb and fell asleep on the side.
The stream trickles, the night breeze is swaying, and the stars in the sky seem to be within reach, which is beautiful.
When it was about ugly, Yuanbao, who was meditating, suddenly felt the sound of a rope coming from a distance, like a person walking. He opened his eyes violently, extinguished the almost burning bonfire, and listened intently.
After a few moments, Rhubarb also opened his eyes and stood up. Fang Ling'er was awakened and wondered, "What's wrong." ”
Yuan Bao booed: "Be quiet, someone." ”
Fang Ling'er's face turned pale, she didn't dare to speak out loud, and looked around vigilantly with Rhubarb in her arms.
Yuan Bao toe a little, silently swept to a big tree not far away, looked out, and saw a figure appear in the depths of the darkness, walking towards this side impartially.
Gradually, as the figure walked in, he saw clearly that the figure turned out to be a young man wearing Taoist clothes. Seeing the little Taoist priest walking here, Yuan Bao swept down, picked up Ling'er and swept up the tree again, and at the same time whispered to Rhubarb on the ground: "Find a place to hide." ”
Rhubarb understood, and ran into a patch of dead grass with his tail between his legs.
Fang Ling'er was held by Yuanbao, the girl was distraught, her face was red, and she was at a loss. Turning her head, she saw that Yuanbao's eyes were just staring at the figure walking slowly, and she didn't seem to care at all, and she suddenly felt a sense of loss in her heart for no reason.
A woman's heart, a needle under the sea, who can touch it?
If any man says that he understands women, he will definitely suffer a lot in the future. Because even women don't know themselves.
The Taoist priest was about fourteen or fifteen years old, not tall, dressed in an orthodox Taoist Xuanfu, carrying a long sword behind his back, but his eyebrows were clear and beautiful, but no matter how Yuan Bao looked at it, he felt that this little Taoist priest was quite obscene.
The little Taoist priest walked to the stream, drank a few sips without pity, washed his face again, and muttered to himself: "I'm dying of thirst, what the hell is this place, let me catch you, I won't spare you." ”
Yuan Bao was surprised, it turned out that this little Taoist priest was actually tracking another person, it seems that this Taoist priest is not from the Demon Sect, nor does it seem like Xiangxi is chasing corpses.
The little Taoist priest sat down where the ingots were just now, sighing and sighing, very dissatisfied. Suddenly, the Taoist priest's face changed, looking at the extinguished fire on the ground, he stood up and shouted: "I know you are nearby, the eldest lady of the Zhao family of the Xiangxi corpse royal family, is it a rat with a hidden head and tail?"
"Dead Daoist, you have chased me for three days and three nights, what do you want to do?" A cold woman's voice came from the darkness, Yuan Bao was startled, and when she looked at it, she saw a figure wearing a black robe and a hat veil appear.
There seemed to be a strange power on the body of the black-robed woman, and in the moonlight, it felt a little illusory.
"The Zhao family of the royal family of Xiangxi chasing corpses?" Yuan Bao felt a chill in his heart, there is no sect of righteousness and demons in Xiangxi, only the corpse chase. The most powerful are the five families, among which the Zhao family has been inherited for thousands of years and is regarded as a royal family, beating the other four major families of Liu, Wang, Sun and Qian.
The little Taoist priest snorted: "What are you chasing you for? You are embarrassed to say that since ancient times, the Maoshan faction has been in the same vein as chasing corpses, one grabbing corpses, and the other raising corpses. Although there are endless battles, the well water does not interfere with the river water in the past hundred years. Three days ago, I was catching a black-haired zombie, and I was about to surrender, but you suddenly killed and snatched it with me, and the zombie took the opportunity to escape. You have to give me an explanation. ”
Yuan Bao looked at the man and woman on the ground, and a strange feeling suddenly rose in his heart.
Xiangxi is known for its witchcraft to raise corpses, while Maoshan Taoism takes catching corpses and killing ghosts as its own responsibility, walking in the world all year round, and the two factions have been fighting in secret for thousands of years.
The most famous is that more than 100 years ago, there was a zombie god who plagued the world, and in one month several cities north of the Yangtze River were turned into dead cities.
The cultivators of the righteous path are strong, but they are still good at dealing with zombies and ghosts, so Maoshan sent a heavenly master named Jiuxuan to go down the mountain with more than a dozen apprentices to kill the zombie god.
After several battles, most of the men died, and just when they were about to kill the zombie god, which Cheng thought that the zombie god actually fled to the territory of Xiangxi south of the Yangtze River. was also arrested by the Zhao family, who drove out corpses in Xiangxi, and refined into a puppet zombie god.
Of course, the Jiuxuan Dao people refused to give up, and went to Xiangxi to find the Zhao family's theory. The Zhao family has been inherited for thousands of years, and all they have learned is the orthodox witchcraft handed down from ancient times, so how can they be afraid of the Maoshan faction? The Jiuxuan Daoist suffered a great loss in Xiangxi, lost an arm, and fled back to Maoshan.
At that time, more than a dozen small and medium-sized sects that had good friends with the Maoshan faction united and gathered more than 3,000 cultivation masters to enter Xiangxi. For fear of making things bigger, the heads of the five major factions intervened. The Xiangxi corpse chasing faction has always been low-key, and when they saw that the heads of the five major factions had come forward, they just happened to borrow the donkey from the slope and handed over the puppet zombie god that had been refined to the Maoshan faction.
Since then, the Maoshan faction and Xiangxi have been regarded as fire and water.
Yuan Bao didn't expect that now the young people of these two factions are getting together again, also because of the conflict caused by zombies, which is quite similar to the incident of the Nine Xuantian Master a hundred years ago.
The black-robed woman was silent for a long time, and said lightly: "Dead Daoist, you dare to be presumptuous when you arrive in Xiangxi." I let that zombie go, what are you going to do?"
The little Taoist priest snorted and chirped: "If you let go of a zombie, you have to compensate me for one, go down the mountain for more than half a month, I finally caught a black-haired zombie and prepared to find the court to exchange silver, but you let it go, and now the court rewards the silver black-haired zombie with eight hundred taels of silver, if you don't compensate me for a black-haired zombie, you will accompany me for eight hundred taels of silver, but for the sake of your face as the eldest lady of the Zhao family, give you some discounts, just pay me seven hundred taels." ”
Yuan Bao and the black-robed woman were stunned, this little Taoist priest of Maoshan chased thousands of miles, just for seven hundred taels of silver?
Yuan Bao smiled secretly in his heart, it turned out that there were many people in the world who loved money more than Xiuzhen. If the elders of the Maoshan Sect knew that their disciples were messing around so much in the mortal world, they didn't know how to feel?
In fact, Yuanbao does not know about the Maoshan faction, which was also the world's leading faction, chasing its roots, which is longer than the Bodhi Temple. It dates back more than 3,000 years.
The Maoshan faction enshrines the original Tianzun, Taishang Dadaojun, Taiwei Tiandijun, Taishang Laojun, etc., and majors in Shangqing, Lingbao, Three Emperors and other scriptures.
In the pre-Qin period, the ghost clan rose. The disciples of the Maoshan faction began to go down the mountain to eliminate demons and subdue demons, catch ghosts and cut zombies, and had a great influence in the world.
If it weren't for the heavy losses in the battle of Huangshan Guangming Peak that year, the righteous path of the world should be the six major factions, not the five major factions.
Until now, when people in the world see Taoist priests, the first thing that comes to mind is not Kunlun, not Emei. It's a Maoshan Taoist.
The Maoshan faction is famous for its talismans, and the real origin of the way of talismans is their sworn enemy Xiangxi. The Chenzhou area of Xiangxi has inherited witchcraft since ancient times, raised corpses and drove away corpses, and developed Chenzhou Fu to suppress corpses and destroy ghosts.
However, thousands of years have passed. Chenzhou Fu gradually declined in Xiangxi. In Maoshan, it has developed.
More than 1,000 years ago, there was a stunning and brilliant woman in the Maoshan faction, named Wei Huacun, she studied the "Shangqing Halal Sutra" hard, obtained the Mahayana, and created many powerful new talismans on the basis of the Chenzhou Fu, specializing in those ghosts and ghosts, zombies.
The black-robed woman sneered and said, "It's just seven hundred taels, it's worth chasing you for thousands of miles?"
"Just seven or two hundred, you say seven or two hundred?" The little Taoist priest of Maoshan jumped up and shouted: "That's seven hundred taels! It's enough for me to eat Yangchun noodles for a lifetime! Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and lose money, otherwise I will blame Daoist Master for being rude to you." ”
The black-robed woman's sleeve robe swelled, and the wind around her instantly rose, and her dark eyes looked at the little Taoist priest of Maoshan opposite, and said word by word: "I also want to understand how powerful the talisman that the Maoshan faction stole from our Xiangxi is." ”
The little Taoist priest didn't look young, he was not afraid in the face of this black-robed woman, and he was about to go up to fight with her.
Yuan Bao is really afraid that the two of them will fight, these two people seem to be extremely high in cultivation, otherwise it would be impossible to catch a black-haired zombie casually. He no longer hid in the tree, he swept down the air with Fang Ling'er in his arms, and shouted in his mouth: "Stars in the middle of the night, beautiful scenery on a good day, why do the two of them do it for a mere seven hundred taels?"
The black-robed woman and the little Taoist priest of Namao Mountain were not much surprised, but just glanced at the ingot. Obviously, with the way of the two of them, they had already noticed that there were people in the trees around them.
The little Taoist priest of Maoshan said angrily: "Livelihood, big brother, now the price of Taoism in this world is so high, if you have no money, you can only drink the northwest wind." ”
Yuan Bao was stunned for a while, put down Fang Ling'er in his arms, and said, "Didn't you ask this Daoist brother to be the senior disciple of the Maoshan faction?"
The little Taoist priest hugged his fists and said: "My name is Zhuge Meteor, and I am a teacher of Maoshan Daoyuan Zhenren." ”
Yuan Bao was shocked in his heart, and said: "It turned out to be the head of the Maoshan faction, Dao Yuan Zhenren, a master disciple, who has been admired for a long time, my name is Yuan Bao, and this is my friend Fang Ling'er." ”
Zhuge Meteor saw that the two of them were not like the Demon Sect, nor were they like Maoshan chasing corpses, so he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yuan Shaoxia, you also heard what I said to Miss Zhao just now, you come to comment." Is it easy for me to support my family? It took seven or eight days to block that black-haired zombie, and as a result, she ruined her fart effort. Do you think she should pay me money?"
Yuan Bao glanced at Miss Zhao who almost hid her body in the darkness on the other side, coughed, and said: "Everyone is a person who cultivates the truth, and they are all on the same road, but Miss Zhao, you also know that the black-haired zombie corpse is extremely heavy and endangers the world, you let it go, I don't know how many mortals suffer, you are wrong." ”
Miss Zhao, a black-robed woman, sneered, her dark eyes seemed to shoot out two cold sharp lights, and said lightly: "I let it go, if you have the ability, you can compete with me, I, Zhao Wuregret, will never be afraid of you sanctimonious hypocrites." ”
"Hey, be careful when you speak, what hypocrite, be careful if you don't have evidence, I'll sue you for slander!" Zhuge Meteor was dissatisfied, and shouted wow.
Yuan Bao said: "Can it still be called slander if there is evidence?"
He turned his head to look at Zhao Wuregret and said, "I think this matter is just settled, seven or two hundred, I'll help you out." ”
As he spoke, he took out a stack of silver tickets from the treasure bag, the lowest of which was a hundred taels of denominations. This is when he bought the ancient wood of agarwood in Qinchuan City, a total of eight thousand taels, and it didn't cost much along the way.
