Chapter 104: See Fulong Valley Again
In the next few days, the little fat man was quite depressed. Because of the death of his good friend, he was not excited about the fact that he had reached the level of the Five Elements Period. The little fat man went to Mei's house every day to see if there was anyone who needed help. Father Mei recruited his eldest son, who was doing business abroad, back to preside over the funeral of his younger son. The little fat man saw that there was no self here, and the problem was not big, so he didn't suffer here every day. In his free time, the little fat man also went to an open place to practice. Because the sword is not easy to control, the little fat man bought an ordinary long sword and used it as a flying sword. Because the texture of this sword is too poor, it is always not as good as the little fat man's intentions. However, now there are not so many divine swords for the little fat man to choose from, so he has to make do with it first. As for Mei Yun, he was rendered as a heroic and chivalrous man by the little fat man, and he died in the line of duty, and the prefect also specially issued a pension of one hundred taels of silver for the Mei family. The deaths of Su Qiu and Chu He all put the blame on the Demon Sect's Thousand Poison Ridge, and their respective fathers were helpless.
Recently, there have been two major events in the rivers and lakes, which make the little fat man worry and can't sleep at night. This first thing is that the Jade Girl Gate suddenly announced to the public: the former door master Hai Rou, because of collusion with the Demon Sect, has now rebelled and absconded. The position of the master of the door cannot be empty, and it will be taken over by the senior sister Song Qian for the time being. Song Qian became a substitute master, and she made a request to the three gates, two grains, and one pretend. It is hoped that the alliance and the people of the world who cultivate immortals will find the traces of Hai Rou and punish him together. When the little fat man got the news, he was so angry that he slapped the table and scolded Song Qian for being shameless! As for who is the traitor, as the little fat man concerned, it is naturally clear. The little fat man was worried about Hai Rou, since that day of separation, Hai Rou seemed to have evaporated from the world, and there was no news about her on the rivers and lakes. The little fat man prayed in his heart: Hairou had better find a small island or forest far away from the martial arts and spend her life peacefully. Another thing is that Li Yun, the master of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect, didn't know what to rely on, so he actually poured out of the nest and threatened to set foot in Fulong Valley, avenge the broken arm of the master of the sect, and the revenge of the holy beast nine-tailed spirit fox. The uncles and uncles in Fulong Valley treated the little fat man like a mountain, and in order to save the little fat man, the black dragon did not hesitate to let him take the guts of the black dragon's cultivation for thousands of years. So, when the little fat man heard about this, he asked the prefect for a few days off and prepared to go to Fulong Valley to find out.
On the night when the prefect agreed to the little fat man's request, the little fat man came to the back mountain outside the city alone. Today is July 15, which is the traditional "Ghost Festival" of Tianhua. Legend has it that on the 14th day of July every year, the Ghost Gate will be opened, and it will not be closed until the end of the 16th day. During the three days when the ghost gate was opened, the ghosts of the underworld could walk freely in the world. Visiting relatives and friends, looking for food and clothing have become the things that these ghosts often do. Therefore, on the night of these three days, you will often see some mourners burning paper money for their loved ones in front of the grave or at the crossroads.
The little fat man also bought some wine and food, preparing to pay tribute to his long-dead father and mother, as well as the newly deceased Mei Yunmei's eldest brother. Brother Mei was buried yesterday, and the place where the little fat man is going now is in front of Mei Yun and Feng Ling's graves.
The little fat man sat in front of Mei Yun's grave, drinking and muttering to himself. It's as if it's a conversation, and I don't know if Brother Mei can hear it. The night gradually deepened, driving away the heat of the day and bringing a hint of coolness. All kinds of trees, waving their branches in the wind, as if greeting those wandering ghosts. The crow was not willing to be lonely, and in the night wind, it spread its hoarse voice, as if others did not know that it existed.
The words of "Sauvignon Blanc" say: people cry, ghosts cry. The incense burns and the smoke shines brightly on the moon. Stroke the zither before flowering. Birds chirp, insects chirp, reminiscences and reminiscences. Sacrifice in the deep of the night.
The little fat man drank alone, and I don't know how many days he drank. Anyway, the people who paid their respects gradually disappeared, and even the sparks lit by the paper men and paper horses on the ground were gone. The little fat man felt a little cold, so he took out all the paper money on his body. Burning each other in front of the graves of Brother Mei Yun and Miss Feng Ling, and reciting words in your mouth, is nothing more than praying that the two of you can be a loving couple in that world and never separate. It also saved a lot of paper money, and the little fat man burned it on an open ground on the main road, this time, he burned it to his long-dead parents. After some tossing, the little fat man was also tired. After the fire burned out, the little fat man dragged his heavy steps back to the station.
On the second day, the little fat man got up early in the morning. He borrowed a white horse from Jin Bufu's house, because it was a long way to go to Fulong Valley, and it would take more than a day to ride a horse. If you don't hurry up now, it's still a question of whether you can get to Fulong Valley tomorrow. At this time, a careful watchman was about to ask, saying that the little fat man had already reached the Five Elements Stage of cultivation. When you reach the Five Elements Period, you should be able to fly with your sword. Isn't the speed at which this Edgeworth flies faster than riding a horse? In fact, there is a reason why the little fat man does not fly with Edgeworth. Because the little fat man has just entered the Five Elements period, he is not very proficient in the science of flying. He was worried that if he flew to Fulong Valley, if one of them was not well controlled, he would fall from the sky and die. At that time, he became a tragic pilot, and he did not even receive a pension. It was precisely because of this consideration that the little fat man decided to go on horseback.
This way Xiaoxing stayed overnight, and the little fat man is not Wuxia Ameng in the past, and he has a certain amount of experience in the rivers and lakes. Along the way, I didn't encounter any trouble. The horse whipped all the way, and at noon the next day, the little fat man also arrived in Fulong Valley. Standing at the gate of Fulong Valley, the little fat man had a feeling of revisiting the old place.
"Who is the horseman, why is he spying on me in Fulong Valley?" When the little fat man was in a daze, he suddenly heard a ** shout.
The little fat man looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a big man standing in front of the mountain gate, looking at him vigilantly. When the little fat man saw this person, he was overjoyed, and shouted at him: "Senior Brother He, it's me, Zhu Xiaopang!"
It turned out that that person was Senior Brother He Chengli He who had fought with the little fat man. He Chengli heard the little fat man's shout, looked at it carefully, and immediately recognized the little fat man. So, he walked quickly towards the little fat man. The little fat man saw Senior Brother He Chengli coming over, and hurriedly jumped off the horse.
"Senior Brother Zhu, why are you here?" He Chengli asked with some confusion. Now everyone in the rivers and lakes knows that the Ten Thousand Demon Gate is attacking Fulong Valley, and they have also heard that their Ten Thousand Demon Gate has obtained a fierce demon beast. It was precisely with this reliance that Li Yun dared to go out to attack Fulong Valley. Fulong Valley has been heavily guarded these days, always keeping an eye out for any disturbances. It was precisely in this way that the little fat man had just arrived at the foot of the mountain and was discovered by He Chengli.
The little fat man said: "I heard that the Ten Thousand Demon Sect is going to attack Fulong Valley, so come over and see if there is anything that can help?"
"That's the case!" He Chengli suddenly realized and said, "Since that's the case, Senior Brother Zhu, let's talk in the valley first." With that, He Chengli took the little fat man and walked towards the valley.
The little fat man led the white horse and followed closely by He Chengli's side, and the little fat man asked seemingly casually: "Senior Brother He, this Ten Thousand Demon Sect is coming to attack Fulong Valley, are there any reinforcements from any sect coming now?" The little fat man asked, in fact, what he was most concerned about was whether anyone from the Fairy Sword Villa was coming.
He Chengli sighed and said, "It's strange to say this, before the Baicaomen sent reinforcements, they themselves were attacked by the Thousand Poison Mountains first. Now, the two factions are inseparable in Baicaomen. In Baicaomen, there is no way to send reinforcements to support our Fulong Valley. As for the Jade Girl Sect, their leader Song Qian sent a message to say that they were now trying to deal with the traitor Hai Rou, making the sect a little powerless. Therefore, they could not send reinforcements. The Golden Light Gate was even worse, they were attacked by the demons of the Heavenly Demon Palace yesterday, and even their sect master died. Now, they can't protect themselves, let alone come to reinforce us. ”
When the little fat man heard this, he was taken aback, and it seemed that the news he got was still too slow. Unexpectedly, in just a few days, so many big things happened on the rivers and lakes. It seems that the rivers and lakes will not be peaceful in the future.
"Has the Sword Fairy Villa sent someone?" the little fat man asked, his main concern was this question.
He Chengli looked at the little fat man's words, opened his mouth, and did not speak. However, his appearance of wanting to speak and stopping made the little fat man worry even more.
"Senior Brother He, what happened to Fairy Sword Villa?" the little fat man asked anxiously, he had already estimated from He Chengli's face that Fairy Sword Villa might also be in trouble.
He Chengli hurriedly said, "Senior Brother Zhu, don't worry. Actually, there are no major changes in Xianjian Villa now. It's just that after the Demon Palace's Golden Light Gate was destroyed yesterday, he waved his army all the way to the Immortal Sword Villa. Now, the Heavenly Demon Palace's Zheng and the Immortal Sword Villa are inseparable. Therefore, they can't send reinforcements either. ”
When the little fat man heard this, his face suddenly changed. Originally, he hadn't heard that the division had been surrounded. If he had known this, the little fat man would have returned to Xianjian Villa first.
He Chengli saw that the little fat man's face was not good-looking, and hurriedly said, "Senior Brother Zhu, don't worry. We have spies in Fulong Valley who have reported that the Immortal Sword Villa relies on the Great Array of Shouzhuang to defend it. In addition, there are five garden owners working together to sit in the village. If the Heavenly Demon Palace wants to break through the Immortal Sword Villa, I am afraid it will be very difficult to succeed. ”
When the little fat man heard this, he felt that what He Chengli said was reasonable, and his face softened. Since I've come here, I have to meet a few uncles and uncles before making plans.
He Chengli continued: "Now there are no reinforcements sent by various sects, only those from Luofeng Valley have come with two senior uncles and more than a dozen senior brothers. ”
