Sleeping Arhat

Chapter 44 The trick comes out, granting a sun

Zhu Changling stepped forward to support Wu Xian, and said with concern: "Wu Shaoxia, are you okay?" Zhu Changling remembered Wu Xian's handsome appearance. A year ago, the young and talented Wu Xian visited Hongmei Villa. Zhu Changling still has a deep memory, although he does not know Wu Xian now Why not fear the hardships and go down the mountain to search, but vaguely guess, it may be the plea of ​​brother Wu Lie and Zhen'er.

Wu Xian took a deep breath, then forced himself to hold back the pain and clasped his fists and said, "Senior Zhu, fortunately, I did not disgrace my life. I am deeply honored by the kindness of Senior Wu and Ms. Zhen'er. I finally let me find news about Senior Zhu."

However, Wu Xian's humble and respectful appearance was due to his exhaustion and multiple bruises on his body at this time. It would be unwise to turn his face at this time. Fortunately, a flash of inspiration came to his mind before, and he came up with this argument.

Zhu Changling was so excited that he danced in the open space. He didn't know where to put his hands. He stammered, "Then you see... when will we go up?"

Wu Xian shook his head, sighed and said: "Senior Zhu, this trip must be difficult and dangerous, the cliff is estimated to be a hundred feet high from the top of the cliff, and the cliff is steep and smooth, there is no place to start, if you don't adjust your posture, you will definitely not be able to go up. "

After finishing speaking, Wu Xian had no intention of taking a look at Zhu Changling, who was down and out. At this time, he had been exposed to the sun and rain for many years, and his three meals a day were all fruits, so his body was thin and his cheekbones were prominent. He was quite embarrassed, so he said: : "When I went down the cliff, I collided with many places, and now it is difficult to move, and you, senior, are... thin and weak. It is really unwise to go up the cliff now. If you are not well prepared, you may be unable to continue halfway, and you can only fall into the abyss." gone."

Hearing Wu Xian's words, Zhu Changling lowered his head and pondered for a moment, treacherous and vicious colors flickered in his eyes, his face was depressed and gloomy, and he sighed: "I have pity on Zhu Changling, although he dare not say chivalrous, but he is also Helping the strong and helping the weak, benevolent and righteous, but falling into such a situation just to save a treacherous and vicious little ghost, it is really sad and deplorable."

After speaking, Zhu Changling took a step forward to question the sky, sighing again and again, it is really pitiful.Wu Xian sympathized, and said: "Listen to the words of the seniors, there are many twists and turns and grievances, why did you fall into such a situation?"

Zhu Changling did not answer, stared at Wu Xian with tiger eyes, and asked, "Then why are you not afraid of life and death, and went down the cliff to look for me?" No matter how cunning and vicious Zhu Changling was, he couldn't think of the purpose of Wu Xian's trip, so Zhu Changling only felt that it must be The remuneration is extremely rich, otherwise, how could Wu Xian put his head on his waistband and fall down the cliff by himself.

Wu Xian was a little hesitant, but said with a determined face: "It's been almost a year since Senior fell off the cliff, but Miss Zhen'er and Senior Wu Lie have never been able to find the body of Senior, so they don't want to believe that Senior is dead. Miss Zhen'er is filial It's touching, I don't think about tea and food for a long time, I'm sick from worry, and I'm haunted by ghosts and sick on the bed, it's really pitiful. I also promise that I will commit myself to marry that hero."

Zhu Changling listened carefully, and when he heard Zhu Jiuzhen's recent situation, he couldn't help but feel a twinge in his heart, and wanted to desperately go up the mountain as soon as possible, so as to comfort his precious daughter.

Wu Xian said dully again: "Originally, I relied on my superb lightness skills to win the first prize and get the thousand taels of gold alone, but you don't know how lively it is up there. There are more than ten people like me who go down the cliff every day." It's cool, but their fortune is poor..." Wu Xian felt a little sad when he said this.

"I'm not afraid of senior's ridicule, so I'll tell you the truth." Wu Xian looked at the distant mountains with empty eyes, and lamented, "Senior, you don't know that I am ambitious and high-spirited, but as soon as I stand on the top of the cliff, I was trembling and scared for a while, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, I had no choice but to bite the bullet and go down, unknowingly exhausted, and there was no way to go up the cliff, so I just arrived here and had a place to stay."

Hearing Wu Xian's words, Zhu Changling became more trusting and warm. He let go of his defenses and said with a smile, "Now that you have found me, you still call me senior?"

Wu Xian faltered, his expression of shyness was just right, with a touch of shyness, a feeling of youthful admiration, but also a heroic and manly spirit, and he said embarrassedly: "Uncle...uncle." Bah, with the little foundation in your family, there is still a lot of money. was burned.Wu Xian complained in his heart, but he has great ambitions, and he wants to find a rich woman to entrust him with for life, and he has nothing to do with your daughter.

Zhu Changling stroked his beard and smiled, and the father-in-law looked at Wu Xian with eyes like a son-in-law. He has delicate features, superb courage, small internal skills and outstanding lightness skills, and he is more and more satisfied with Wu Xian as a "son-in-law".Wu Xian's face was a little shy, but his heart was a little timid. Fortunately, he was clever enough to come up with such an idea.

Zhu Changling said with a smile: "I am happy to have a son-in-law like you who rides the dragon fast."

"Uncle Zhu, the fruit is here." A brisk voice came from the dark cave, and when Zhu Changling saw the scarred Wu Xian, he quickly pushed him to the shelter of the rock wall to prevent Zhang Wuji from seeing him.Wu Xian panicked when he heard Zhang Wuji's voice, fearing that Zhang Wuji would reveal the relationship between the two. With such serious injuries, Wu Xian must not be Zhu Changling's opponent, so he cooperated and hid aside.

Wu Xian rejoiced in his heart: It seems that Zhu Changling really believed what he said, and also, in such a desolate and inhabited situation where the world should not agree, what he said was perfect, and he was his only hope of escape Therefore, he put down his guard and chose to believe.

Da Da, three fist-sized wild fruits rolled out from the hole, "Little brother, can you give me two more wild fruits, I have been suffering from wind and cold recently, and now I have just recovered from a serious illness, and my body is very weak." Zhu Changling said to Dongkou said, his tone was full of begging and pity.

Zhang Wuji didn't answer right away, he pondered for a while, and after all, he was kind-hearted, rolled out a slightly smaller wild fruit, and said, "You have such a bad conscience, you should have starved to death, and wanted to eat more wild fruits. Come in and get it yourself."

Zhu Changling blew his beard angrily, and shouted: "You..." The handle fell into Zhang Wuji's hands, and finally Zhu Changling remembered the days when he was starved for two or three meals, and finally did not say anything.

Time passed, Zhang Wuji's movement at the entrance of the cave disappeared, it seemed that he had entered the fairyland, Zhu Changling handed the three wild fruits to Wu Xian, and he ate the smallest wild fruit in anguish, full of bitterness and helplessness.

"Senior, that kid is so ungrateful, repays his favor, and humiliates you so much, I will go in and clean him up for you." Wu Xian was full of anger, dragging his body and was about to enter the battle with him.

"Slow down." Zhu Changling grabbed Wu Xian, seeing Wu Xian's filial piety and humility, he was satisfied, but it didn't show on his face. Zhu Changling has been extremely tolerant after this year's training, Moreover, Wu Xian's scarred and exhausted appearance would definitely not be Zhang Wuji's opponent.

"This matter should not be impulsive. We need to plan carefully to ensure that nothing goes wrong, otherwise you and I can only be companions on the platform for the rest of our lives."

After hearing this, Wu Xian nodded seriously, and looked forward to him.
