Seven Black Snakes

"Butler, since Fuguangzhai left a letter asking for 100,000 taels of silver, how can you say that the young master was not captured?" Li Wumang was familiar with the housekeeper and asked.

"I don't know, I think it's the enemy of Fuguang Village, and I don't know if I deliberately make enemies for Fuguang Village. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Li Wumang was a little puzzled.

The housekeeper said: "Yifu is a big family in Anzhou, and our old lady is a protégé in the middle of the court, and the old lady is also a student of the old lady." The old lady himself was cautious in his words and deeds and never offended people, the strong man kidnapped the famous young master, how could the old lady be willing to give up, thinking that it was the opponent of Fuguang Village, and gave Fuguang Village a strong enemy. ”

"So it's still related to Fuguang Village?"

"This is natural. The butler was sure. The group sent by the Yi family was in a hurry to return home.

Li Wumang looked at Yi Fu'an and said, "Third brother, go back with the housekeeper, I'll take a look here, and I'll go back to Hongye Town in a while." ”

After Yi Fuan left with the people from Yi Mansion, Li Wumang paid for the car and sent the hired car. A person took a stick and walked along the mountain road next to the avenue to Fuguang Village.

After walking half a mile, several strong men came out of the road, and when they saw that Li Wumang was only twelve or thirteen years old, one of them asked, "What are you doing?"

"I want to see the second master. Li Wumang looked at a few strongmen.

A few people laughed, and a strong man who seemed to be the leader said: "You kid is so bold, you want to see the second master when you open your mouth, I know that you are from Gaozhou Yifu, don't entangle, go back." ”

"There is a rule in Fuguang Village that as long as you climb to the top of Fengshan Mountain, the cottage heroes will respond to their needs?" Li Wumang heard Yi's father talk about this matter in Yifu'an's house last time, and this time the name change was in danger, Li Wumang heard the housekeeper say that this matter must be related to Fuguang Village, and he disregarded his life in order to change his name and wanted to climb to the top of Fengshan.

Several strongmen were stunned when they heard this, and the leader said: "This is the rule of the cottage, what are you doing?"

"I'm going to the top. ”

"Wait. After the leader finished speaking, he turned around and walked briskly towards the cottage.

After a stick of incense, the strongman who had just left came back and said to Li Wumang: "Young master, I told the second village master, saying that you have a leg injury, and the second village master said that someone will carry you up, are you willing?"

Li Wumang saw that it was a little strange for the strongman to call him a young master, so he didn't ask much, nodded and agreed. The strongman who spoke carried Li Wumang and walked towards the mountain village. When he arrived at the door of the hall, he put down Li Wumang, "Young Master, please wait." ”

A word came from the hall, "Please come in, young master." ”

The strong man who went up the mountain with his back supported Li Wumang and walked into the hall.

There are five chairs in the hall, and five strongmen sit on them. Li Wumang crossed his hand and saluted.

"Gaozhou Li Wumang has seen everyone in charge. ”

Li Wumang sells baskets in Gaozhou, and he knows a lot about things in the market, and he also knows how to meet robbers. The second leader sitting in the center was a black-faced man in his thirties, and looked at Li Wumang, "The young master said that he wanted to climb the top of Feng Mountain?"

"Yes".

"What is the young master's difficulty, do you want to contribute to the cottage?"

"Wumang's second brother changed his name and was taken captive, and Wumang wanted to save him. ”

The second master waved his hand, "The housekeeper of the Yi Mansion came just now, and I have already sued him that the young master of the Yi family was not captured in Fuguang Village." ”

"Fuguangzhai did not capture the brothers who had no mang, I think it was the people of other cottages who wanted to blame the heroes, and asked Fuguangzhai to uphold justice. ”

"The young master wants to climb to the top of Feng Mountain, do you know what kind of place it is?"

"It's just that there are monsters on the top of the mountain who will eat people, Li Wumang is young but has an oath when he worships, brothers should live and die together, Wumang has no strength to restrain the chicken and is lame, Mo said that he can't find the name, even if he finds it, he has no ability to save him, only to sacrifice his life to climb to the top with the righteousness of all brothers. "In times of crisis, the stubborn arrogance of Li Wumang is fully revealed, and a young man is calm and bold in the cottage hall.

Li Wumang is a person who has read books, talks decently, and always talks to the second master without departing from righteousness, and the five people sitting on the chair are all impressed by him.

The second master asked: "Isn't the young master afraid of death at a young age?"

"Ants are still greedy for life, let alone people, but their fate is determined by heaven, and death is death. Li Wumang replied.

Li Wumang had already made up his mind before going up the mountain, but now he was afraid that Fuguangzhai would change his hexagram and speak loudly. The five people present involuntarily looked up at the roof, as if looking at the sky.

The second master seemed to be touched, and said: "Since the young master is so decisive, the master will agree, if the young master Li can climb to the top of Fengshan, Fuguang Village will never break his word." ”

The second master looked at Li Wumang and said: "Young Master Li and go to rest, the food cottage will be arranged, I will tell the details of the top of Fengshan to know Young Master Li, Young Master Li is young and righteous, if he changes his mind, Fuguang Village will not be embarrassed Young Master Li, just beat ten whips and drive down the mountain, it is important to save your life." After speaking, Li Wumang was recited out of the hall.

There are several rooms in Fuguang Village, Li Wumang was placed in one of them to rest, a strong man in his twenties sent food to Li Wumang, and just after eating, the second master entered the room,

The black man looked at Li Wumang, "The young master is not good at what he does, but he still has to climb the mountain?"

"I'm going with a stick, and I'm going to climb the mountain. ”

The second master sat down, "In that case, I'll tell you about this, and after listening to it, the young master has to go if he doesn't go." ”

"Wumang understands, please be in charge. ”

"My surname is Hei, there is a bandit in the rivers and lakes, and people in the same way call me 'Hei Tai Sui', and I sit in the second position in Fuguang Village. ”

Li Wumang stood up when he heard this, and saluted with his crossed hands, "Please make the master of the black village complete." ”

Hei Taisui nodded and motioned for Li Wumang to sit down: "Fuguang Village has had heroes occupying the mountain as kings for hundreds of years, and the government has also cleared it from time to time, but it has been repeatedly destroyed and built here, and it is a blessed land of green forests." Legend has it that the top of the Maple Mountain is the residence of the immortal cultivators, three hundred years ago the immortal cultivators on the top of the mountain fell in the catastrophe, and their disciples left the top of the mountain to build the floating light village here, and then disappeared, leaving a message when leaving, as long as they can climb to the top of the Maple Mountain, the person who rings the bronze bell is the master of the cottage. Therefore, at this time, Fuguang Village is the owner of the second village, and there is no big village. This rule is well known to everyone, but outsiders are not too clear, have Young Master Li ever heard of it?"

"Wumang just knows that if he can climb to the top of Fengshan, Fuguang Village will respond to his needs. The rest is not known. ”

Hei Taisui smiled, "Climbing to the top of Fengshan is the master of the big village, why isn't Fuguang Village responsive?"

"Can anyone climb to the top?" Li Wumang suddenly asked.

"Young Master Li don't be anxious, and listen to the black to come, the top of the maple mountain is not only the residence of the immortal cultivators, there must be strange birds and beasts guarding it, it is said that there is a black snake on the top of the mountain that is two zhang thick as a bucket, and the air becomes a fog and swings the tail to produce wind, where the climber does not fall off the cliff and is devoured by it, when the lord of Dazhai set the rules, many people have been, all of them are a result, Hei has been in charge of the floating light village for more than ten years, a few years ago there was a foreign hero who wanted to win the chair of the black one, and the martial arts lost a certain trick of the black, and the choice to climb to the top in a hurry, but also there is no return, these things are not enough to be with outsiders, the people of the floating light village know it。 "How far is it to reach the top?" Li Wumang was relieved, did not flinch, and inquired about the distance of the road.

"From the cottage to the peak is only more than 60 zhang, and no one has walked, I heard that the mountain road is winding for five miles. Hei Tai Sui said in his heart that this young man was brave enough.

"Black village master, how about Wumang go now?"

"According to the rules, fasting and bathing tomorrow, and climbing the mountain the day after tomorrow, Young Master Li should not be anxious, Hei has sent someone to inquire about the news of the young master of the Yi family, and he is also a little sure in his heart, the rules of the green forest, the person who kidnapped the young master of the Yi family did not get the silver, and did not achieve the purpose of marrying Fuguang Village, it will not hurt people, and the young master of the Yi family should have no worries about his life these days. Young Master Li and relax. ”

"The master of the black village, if Wumang succeeds in reaching the top, he will be the master of the big village, how can the master of the black village allow Wumang to reach the top?" Li Wumang was a little puzzled, if he sat on the top spot, wouldn't Hei Taisui be condescending.

Hei Taisui smiled, "Young Master Li is quite scheming at a young age, this is a three-hundred-year-old rule, who dares not to obey it? Fuguangzhai is very respectful to those who want to reach the top, and we all call Young Master Li this way. If Young Master Li can climb to the top of Fengshan Mountain, he will be very fortunate to ring the bronze bell black, and he will be very fortunate to be in Fuguang Village. ”

"Black village master, what do you say?"

"The big boss who opened the mountain and set up the cabinet once said that those who can climb to the top of the bell are rich and noble in the world, and they should be the king of the torn earth. After speaking, Hei Tai Sui laughed.

Li Wumang smiled faintly and said, "Wumang doesn't believe that the characters of three hundred years ago can predict today's events. It seems that the black snake theory is also made up out of thin air, and the owner of the black village should not regret it. Wumang, the lord of the village, can't afford it, but the second brother of Wumang must be rescued. ”

Hei was overjoyed, and he regretted it. Young Master Li should not be happy, it is not too late to come back alive. ”

"Black village master, the bronze bell is on the top of the mountain?"

"This Hei doesn't know, but according to the rules, the young master will naturally know when he goes to the top of the mountain. ”

On the third day, Hei Taisui carried Li Wumang to the mountain road on the side of the cottage, and Hei Taisui handed Li Wumang a knife and a small burden to Li Wumang, "The burden is dry food and water, and Young Master Li is good at doing it himself." ”

Li Wumang thanked him, took his stick and walked up the mountain.

This road is not walked, thorns and branches are the road, Li Wumang used a knife to cut and walk, walked nearly a mile and the mountain road is a stone step.

There are fewer trees on both sides, and it is not as laborious as just now, and after walking another mile, Li Wumang feels a little tired. Sit down and eat some dry food from Hei Tai Sui, and drank a sip of water, after all, it was a thirteen-year-old child, and Li Wumang was a little scared.

At the beginning, Li Wumang was helpless and helpless, and he was lame in practice, although he had to be taken care of by his brother, in the end he wanted to drag people down, and when he saw that his name was taken captive and he was worried about his life, he suddenly had the pride of sacrificing his life for righteousness.

At present, a person walking on this deserted mountain road, thinking of this is more than auspicious, and he may never see his father and mother again, and he can't help but feel sad. I want to go back, and I remember to rescue the name change. I couldn't go back, so I bit and walked half a mile. The road was very different from when it came, a ten-zhang wide moat was in front of me, and a stone beam one foot wide was erected on it, and only by walking over the stone beam could you reach the opposite side.

When he reached this situation, there was no other way, Li Wumang tied the wooden sticks, knives, and burdens on his body, and slowly climbed up the stone beam, the clothes blown by the mountain wind fluttered, Li Wumang's left leg was inconvenient, and he trembled forward on the stone beam.

After climbing two zhang, he looked up and saw a big black snake on the mountain road three zhang opposite, with a red crown on the top of his head, spitting out a letter and coming towards him, "My life is resting." Li Wumang's face was pale, and he almost fell off the stone beam. Falling into a deep ravine.

A drop of water glowing with silver light quietly appeared in the Li Wumang Seal Hall, slowly spinning. Li Wumang didn't feel the slightest trace of the water droplets, but when he looked closely at the black snake opposite, he saw that it was just a black rock, and the twisted stone looked like a snake.

Li Wumang settled down and crawled forward again. When I got to the opposite side, there was a red inscription at the end of the black rock. No wonder I saw a red crown on the head of the serpent. Along the way, the water droplets have been spinning in the hall of the seal.

The road winds straight and steep on one side, wide and sometimes narrow, and in some places only allows one person to pass sideways. There are also several red inscriptions on the stone wall along the way.

When we arrived at a mile from the top of the mountain, there were stone steps, which were gentle and open. Li Wumang saw that there was a stone pavilion more than a hundred zhang away from him, and there was a bell hanging in the pavilion, and he couldn't look carefully from a distance.

Li Wumang breathed a sigh of relief, walked up the steps, and saw that the sun was already noon, and when he arrived at the stone pavilion, he saw that the pavilion was not big, one zhang was five feet high. An old bronze bell hangs in the middle of the pavilion, and the bell is the size of a hanging bucket. A copper chain was tied to the beam of the pavilion, Li Wumang reached out and touched it, and dragged it again, but it was also strong.

took out the knife that Hei Tai Sui gave when he was leaving, and knocked twice with the back of the knife, the bronze bell had no sound at all, Li Wumang was in a hurry, and knocked a few more times, but there was still no sound. Li Wumang hurriedly picked up a fist-sized stone from the ground and smashed it a few times, also without a sound. Li Wumang sat helplessly on the ground.

It seems that ringing the bronze bell is not an easy task, Li Wumang thought about it, since he wants to climb to the top, let's go to the top of the mountain to have a look. It is said that there are monsters in Fengshan, and I haven't seen anything dangerous except for the black stone that scared me along the way. I think it's on the top of the mountain, maybe it's past that level to be able to ring the bell. Li Wumang stood up, walked to the top of the mountain with a stick.

The pavilion is only sixty zhang away from the top of the mountain, some tall solitary stones block the view, the stone steps bend around, walk through a big stone, and suddenly see a hole in a stone wall, the hole is one zhang high and six feet wide. Above the entrance of the cave is engraved the words "Floating Light Blessed Land".

Li Wumang was a little timid when he saw it, and most of the monsters were hiding in the cave. After passing through the entrance of the cave, I walked down the steps to the top of the mountain. After a while, I reached the top of the mountain, that is, a flat land within a radius of five zhang. Some stone stools, stone tables. There is a sturdy old tree, and the tree seems to have been struck by lightning many times, and it looks like it has been through vicissitudes. Li Wumang sat on the stone bench, and the only way to do this was to go to the cave to see what was going on, so he stood up helplessly, put on his clothes, held a knife with a stick in one hand, and went down to the top of the mountain, and came to the entrance of the cave in the blessed land.

The top of the cave is five zhang high, and there are stone tables, chairs, and stools inside, and there is a stone couch. There were a few holes on both sides of the cave that were more than one person high, and Li Wumang thought that those should be rooms, and this big one was the hall.

There are more than a dozen night pearls embedded in the stone wall of the cave, all of them are the size of a fist, and the faint light shines in the cave, which is a little bright when looking inside the cave without a mang. Li Wumang knocked on the stone wall with the back of his knife, the bell rattled, and there was no movement after waiting for the meeting, so he became bolder. It seems that there are no more youkai.

Seeing that there was a volume of copper slips on the stone case, Li Wumang walked over and opened the copper slips on the stone case, and the first sentence of the copper slips was: Distinguished guests are coming, and Ma Kui is the head. Li Wumang saw that it was the cave owner who left the words, so he sat on the stone bench in front of the desk and looked carefully.

There are twenty copper slips in this volume, strung with gold wire, the words on the copper slips are engraved with knives, the veritable iron painting silver hook, a total of more than 400 words, it seems that the cave master has also spent a lot of thought.

Li Wumang carefully read this volume of copper slips and knew the origin of the Fuguang Blessed Land and the Fuguang Village. Ma Kui, the person who left the copper slip, briefly said these things, the floating light blessed land is the cave house of Ma Kui's master Ganli Xiuxian, and Ganli is a loose cultivator, with the cultivation of the middle stage of Yudan.

One day, the floating light of a hundred years of retreat came out of the cave, and wanted to go to Damang Mountain to collect medicine, and just flew off the ground on the top of Feng Mountain, a heavenly thunder suddenly thundered down, and Ganli was a cultivator who had gone through two heavenly tribulations, and was actually destroyed by this heavenly thunder, and the golden pill was shattered and fell on the top of the mountain immediately.

Ma Kui only has a third-level Qi cultivation level, which is not much different from mortals. The master was buried. In order to survive, Ma Kui did not want to be bound by the world's mundane affairs, so he built a floating village in the middle of the mountainside. Ma Kui is an immortal cultivator, although he only has a third-level cultivation of Qi training, his martial arts are beyond the reach of mortal martial artists.

In the past few years in Fuguang Village, Ma Kui has gone to look for other immortal cultivators many times, how do he know that the immortal cultivators in the Acura area have left, and finally found an immortal cultivator who is also a third-level Qi cultivator, and the person told him: The Acura area is now a forbidden area for immortal cultivators, and the top immortal cultivators in the Fengli Continent, including those who cultivate ghosts and demons, have formed a "Four Cultivation Chrysanthemum Destruction Array" in Acura to protect a drop of phoenix crying blood from the upper realm.

As the name suggests, the Four Cultivation Chrysanthemum Array is a large array of four types of monks of people, demons and demons, and the mark of the array is a golden chrysanthemum.

Before the formation ended, the major immortal cultivation sects all informed the disciples who were cultivating immortals in Acura, and the vast majority of scattered cultivators also knew about it, so they left here in advance. The few remaining cultivators are mostly low-level casual cultivators.

The master was in the life and death pass, and no friend told him, but after leaving the customs, he used his mana to fly into the air, touching the big array. It must have been destroyed by this great array. The Great Array was formed by the immortal cultivators of the four cultivation stages of the merger period and the god transformation period, and the immortal cultivators of the entire Fengli Continent did not dare to use mana in this array.

Ma Kui said in the middle of the Tongjian, and he and his colleagues found a magic boat, and they would venture across the Ten Thousand Demon Sea and go to the other side of the Fengli Continent. The things in the floating blessed land are not able to be taken away, and I hope that the guests will not touch these things, which can be regarded as a respect for the dry ceremony.

The stone couch in the cave is beneficial to cultivation, there is a stone mortar in a stone room on the left, there are stalactites on it, the dripping bluestone milk cultivation intensive nourishment element is very different, and the guests can take it as much as possible.

In the end, Ma Kui wrote: Your guest must not be a cultivator with advanced cultivation, and Ma Kui doesn't know how you came up. On the mountain road, the red urn written by the master is the charm of wind, fire, thunder and lightning. It is a means to protect the blessed land of light. The immortal cultivators who can kill the foundation building period are the illusion of the black snake, and those who build the foundation and cultivate the following will also be confused by it and die.

When guests get here, they must be people of great luck. If you are in the world, you deserve great wealth. Don't bring others up in the future, or you will be injured by the talisman. The last sentence is: Jun has the blood of the phoenix.

Li Wumang looked at the cloud mountain fog cover, and he didn't know what Qi cultivation foundation was, what kind of immortal cultivation rank the Jindan combination was, but the order was clear. I got up and went to a few stone rooms to see, there were some jade bottles, Ding furnace utensils, but there were no copper coins, gold and silver. Li Wumang knew that such a thing was a priceless thing, and since Ma Kui said it in the copper slip, Li Wumang did not have the idea of greedy for money.

In the stone room on the left, I really saw a stone mortar, there was some black water in it, and there was a small silver spoon next to it, Li Wumang scooped a spoonful with a silver spoon and put it in his mouth, the entrance was cool, refreshing, and swallowed slowly. There are only three spoonfuls in total, and after drinking, I saw a copper bump next to the stone mortar, one end was a hook, and the other end was a copper chain a foot long.

I took the bell tongue and was about to ring the bell, but I was dizzy and dizzy when I got out of the stone room, as if I was drunk. Staggered to the side of the stone couch, his body was crooked, and he fell asleep on the stone couch. In the haze, I dreamed that the water droplets glowing with silver light swirled in the dantian.

I don't know how long it took, Li Wumang woke up, only felt comfortable and full of energy, thinking that it was not too early, he was busy getting off the stone couch, and immediately realized that something was wrong, and his left leg moved freely. Li Wumang hurriedly walked a few steps, and sure enough, his left leg had healed, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.

It seems that this bluestone milk is really a treasure, and it is not in vain for three hundred years that it has dropped three small spoonfuls. I was overjoyed to think of what Ma Kui said that the stone couch was good for practice, and I forgot about the hurry to ring the bell and go down the mountain, so I sat cross-legged on the stone couch, gathered my mind, and practiced the Great Yang Heart Method.

At the moment, the kung fu entered an ethereal state, and the water beads in the dantian rotated rapidly, and the meson-sized Zongwen on the water beads seemed to be about to break away from the surface of the water droplets, and the Zongwen was also a little bigger, and the five acupuncture points on the top of the head and the hands and feet felt the pure qi outside the body surging into the body.

The true qi of the dantian was full of drumming with the help of the external qi, and Li Wumang led the qi into the eight veins with intention, and the true qi was not hindered at the second vein of Rendu. Nine weeks of practice, Tianfang received the merit. Li Wumang let out a sigh, and Ren Du's second pulse thought that it had been cleared when he fainted.

This time I had this adventure at the top of Fengshan, not only could I start practicing martial arts again, but also because of eating bluestone milk, not only my left leg was cured, but the Dayang Heart Method also went to a higher level. If you can do whatever you want with your luck, you will reach the realm of Dayang Mental Method.

took the bell tongue, and Li Wumang came out of the blessed land. As soon as I saw the sky, it would be dark for half an hour at most, so I couldn't help but get anxious.
