Yipin Danxian

Chapter 40 Wolf Mountain
As a monk with the "talent" of alchemy, Wu Sheng was repeatedly detained by the Shen family, hoping that he would return to the clan, but Wu Sheng was unwilling to stay in Pingyu, and he still had two warrants on his head. His false identity will be exposed, and then he will become enemies with Shen.

After a lot of refusal, and repeatedly promised to keep in touch, and tried to express his belonging to the clan, he finally got away.After leaving Pingyu, Jin Wuhuan saw that Wu Sheng had made up his mind to go, so he asked, "Where is Brother Wu planning to go?"

Wu Sheng thought for a while, and replied: "Not sure yet, but we must find a place that is both stable and prosperous. It will not be found by the people of Chu and Jixia Academy, and it will not leave the world of practice... like the two of you. I don't dare to hope for the little happiness of Kouzi hiding in the mountains."

It's safe to hide in the mountains, but you can't deal with the monks normally. Without the opportunity to communicate, how can you earn money to practice?

Mrs. Shen interrupted suddenly: "I do know a place, eighty miles to the east, on the shore of Yingshui, there is a mountain named Wolf, connected to Cai in the northwest, Chen in the northeast, Chu in the south, and the border of the Three Kingdoms. There is a pond named Lianpu at the foot of the mountain. Every first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, there is a market on the bank of Lianpu, and many practitioners will meet there. I go there once or twice a year to collect the medicinal herbs from the medicine garden. The medicinal materials are sold out and exchanged for things used in cultivation..."

Wu Sheng's eyes lit up immediately, and he clapped his hands and said, "Good place!"

Jin Wuhuan and Shen Niangzi wanted to accompany Wu Sheng, but Wu Sheng refused: "You young couple really treat me like a child? You must know that I have been in the rivers and lakes for many years..."

Lady Shen covered her mouth and smiled lightly: "Isn't elder brother just twenty?"

Wu Sheng smiled and said, "Even if it's only twenty, you two don't have to worry about it, okay?"

The three parted ways, and Wu Sheng was instructed by Mrs. Shen to go to Langshan.

Langshan is not high, but the mountain is rolling and rolling, with no less than dozens of hills, more than a dozen gorges, lush forests, and flocks of birds.

The meaning of the boundary of the Three Kingdoms is that most of the time, they don’t care about the three, so many casual practitioners, including many who have committed crimes, live in seclusion in Langshan, similar to Daze where Wu Sheng lived in seclusion.

Langshan is surrounded by Hongshui, a tributary of Yingshui, and is almost isolated as a peninsula. Only the junction of more than two miles in the southeast is connected with Chu State.

After entering the mountain, Wu Sheng began to look for a secluded place, or a cave, or build a place by himself, it doesn't matter.Walking along the place where the spiritual power of heaven and earth is abundant, you come to a waterfall, which has been occupied by people as expected, and a courtyard hanging on the edge of the cliff was built next to the mountain. The houses and courtyard walls are all made of stone, which can be seen The owner has been meticulously built.

The name of the courtyard is "Stone Waterfall Terrace", and the plaque is hung under the dangerous eaves, which is very interesting.

This is really a good hermit place, with plenty of spiritual power. If Wu Sheng practices here, he may be able to transform more than two grains of spiritual sand every day, which is worth two days. It's useless, what he likes is the scenery.

It's a pity that first come first served, this is the rule of the practice world, Wu Sheng deeply regrets this, and can only move on.

Going up the Yuanxi River, after walking for half an hour, I saw a deep pool with blue waves, the environment is mysterious, and the spiritual power is also good.

Wu Sheng raised his eyes and looked around, but saw no signs of people living there. Just as he was thinking about it, a puff of smoke came out from the stone wall beside the deep pool, and an old monk walked out of the smoke.

This is the appearance that the cave is covered by the phantom array.

Leaning on an iron crutch, the old monk sized Wu Sheng up and asked, "Your friend, why did you come to my Yanbo Lake?"

Wu Sheng was already prepared, and asked, "Senior, I have invited you. I wonder if there is a magic weapon for sale?"

The old monk shook his head: "I don't sell magical artifacts in Yanbotan, only panacea."

It turned out to be a rare alchemist, Wu Sheng looked respectful: "Then wait until the younger generation needs the alchemy."

Traveling and visiting along the way, I broke into more than ten caves, and found that there must be people living in places full of spiritual energy.Wu Sheng didn't worry about it either, he was a latecomer, his cultivation was not good enough, and he didn't have the qualifications to worry about it, so he had the right to visit the monks in the mountains.

After seven days, Wu Sheng finally found a suitable settlement, a certain place on the cliff.

Needless to say, spiritual power is definitely not as good as those abundant places. If you meditate and practice every day, it is the amount of a grain of spiritual sand-of course he does not expect this, buying a large number of magic tools and spiritual materials is the right way for him to practice. Otherwise, hundreds of spirit sands will come down in a year, and you will die of old age without any results.

Wu Sheng took a fancy to the scenery here, a stone cave, close to the seven or eight zhang high cliffs, there are waterfalls and turbulent flows beside the cave, converging into a secluded pool with an area of ​​​​mu, which is in line with the yearning for the cave in his heart.

In addition, the stone cave has twists and turns and can lead to the top of the cliff, which provides an extra escape route; the secluded pool also solves the problem of water source, and fish can be raised in the pool, which relieves the pressure of eating to a certain extent.

Down the mountain, there is a forest of pines and bamboos. In the forest, there are bamboo shoots, bamboo fungus, hazelnuts, etc., as well as hares and gazelle. The food and building materials are very rich.

In view of the failure of searching for the cave in the past few days, Wu Sheng is not sure that this is a land without an owner, but he tosses here vigorously, such as shouting, lighting a fire, and roasting meat. It took a full three days to finally confirm it. .

What a masterless ah!

If you think about it, you are going to occupy a place with plenty of spiritual power. In the eyes of monks, this place is like a chicken rib, and there is nothing attractive about it.

Wu Sheng decided to settle down, following the old rules, cutting down trees to build a house.Using pine as beams and columns and green bamboo as board walls, three bamboo houses were erected in a few days.

Outside the three bamboo houses, there are classic bamboo fences as usual, a mountain residence without bamboo fences is absolutely incomplete, Wu Sheng always thinks so.Most importantly, the bamboo huts were all built very large, completely covering the openings that were not easy to be noticed.

There is a natural stone room in the cave, which can be used as an alchemy room or to store materials.From the cave to the top of the cliff, there is a dense forest on the top of the cliff, and the exit is in the forest, covered by dense bushes.Wu Sheng moved a big rock, put it towards the exit, tied a few pine branches on it, it looks very hidden, it's done!

The next step is to make beds, tables, cabinets and other furniture, build a stove, dig a latrine, and then use bamboo pipes to guide the waterfall water, which can be used for drinking and flushing the latrine.

He has real energy in his body, although he can't cast spells, but he is light and healthy, and he doesn't feel tired at all when he works. No. 14 days after entering the mountain, his new home is complete.

I found a big stone and stood it beside the mountain path outside the pine and bamboo forest. The words "Songzhu Yayuan" were prominently engraved on it, which meant to imply to outsiders that this pine and bamboo forest has its own owner.

This cryptic announcement may not be effective in the near future. When people pass by, they will enter as they should, but the stele has been erected for a long time, and the forest has gradually become his.

On the night when the new house was completed, Wu Sheng prepared a sumptuous meal for himself as a celebration. After a good night's sleep, he went down the mountain the next morning to the shore of Lianpu.

Today is April [-]th, the day when Lianpu Market opens every ten days.
