The Legend of Shushan Swordsman

Chapter 5 Ten Years of Valor

Yun Zhong was in vain, anxious and angry, unable to do anything.Fortunately, I took two pills of Yue Wen's medicine when I came here, and I still don't feel hungry.In the afternoon of the second day, the short and fat monk came to see him twice, and was secretly surprised to see Yunzhong's tough expression, without a trace of fatigue.After a while, I went to invite the tall and fierce monk to come and see.The two discussed for a while, and the short and fierce monk said to Yun Zhong: "I see you can't see, you are still a tough guy. We have a matter to discuss with you, if you agree, I can spare your life; Persisting in your obsession, I cut you open and cut your heart out, and drank with the elder. What do you think?" Yunzhong thought for a while, and replied: "I have already been captured, so I can be killed. If you ask me for anything, I am not bound. Persecuting. If you have anything to do, let me go first and then discuss it. If it is feasible, you will agree to it; if it is those who are rapes, thieves and adulterers, you will kill me, frown, and you will not be considered a man." The fierce monk said to the tall fierce monk: "This man is really a man, much better than those before. Fortunately, we are not afraid that he will escape to the sky." After finishing speaking, he went to untie Yunzhong.

Yunzhong was tied up all day and all night, and his whole body was numb.Knowing that these fierce monks are powerful and capable of demonic arts, they will run away if they cannot be underestimated. It is better to grant his request temporarily and act according to circumstances.Then he asked the two ferocious monks: "What's bothering you, tell me." The short ferocious monk didn't answer, dragged Yun Zhong to the sunny place in the court, looked carefully at Yun Zhong's face again and again. , and then dragged him into a meditation room next to the courtyard and sat down, saying: "My name is Kayin Shabu, and I am the second master of this temple. The one who is taller than me is the elder master of this temple, and his name is Fanajia Sound [-]. We are all from northern Yunnan. Just to offend the powerful, we brought our disciples to build a temple in Qingluo Mountain to study. Ten years ago, a woman named Wei Fengniang, a monk named Shenshou, came suddenly. She was born very beautiful. We shouldn’t have left her in the temple. She wounded many of us with her magic flying sword. She forced my two senior brothers away and occupied our Qingluo Mountain. We had no choice but to escape to this place , drove away the abbot of this Qingyuan Temple, and lived here temporarily. One reason was that he could not go back to northern Yunnan because he offended the power; Take Qingluo Mountain back. I don’t want Wei Fengniang to hear that we are still not far away, come to force us to surrender, and be her eyes and ears on Qingluo Mountain. She has eight apprentices, that is, the famous Eight Demons of Xichuan, who are dedicated to rape and robbery outside. All of them are proficient in spells and have high abilities. We couldn't fight her, and we had nowhere to go, so we had to agree.

"This place was originally a tunnel between Sichuan and Yunnan. Many tourists and merchants and people who went to Yunnan to worship Buddhism took a shortcut. Many of them passed through this place. When we occupied Qingluo Mountain, we did not often rob houses, but only entered Yunnan. All the people in our temple have to come to our temple to offer incense and alms, so that they can stay safe. Occasionally, they rob and kill once or twice, because they don't know what to do, they have to take a short-cut for more than ten days, and they are reluctant to give up the incense, which annoys us, so they provoke them Unexpectedly, when the Eight Demons came here, they had so many people, they did not care about injustice, they robbed anyone they saw, raped women they met, and they went to Sichuan from time to time to do big crimes, and they came back with a full load. Gradually, pedestrians stopped on the road. They were afraid that there would be too much noise, and they knew that this was the only way to get to Qingluo Mountain, so they forced us to make eyeliner for them, so that they could be prepared in case the capable swordsmen came to seek their bad luck. No production, all relying on the charity of passing pilgrims. They have no source of food and clothing, and have to do some robbery on the Sichuan-Yunnan border. Who knows that the Eight Demons still don’t allow it, so we are only allowed to make eyeliner, and they will give it to them every month. Get some sheep and rice butter. If there is a big business and grab the hand, we have to send it to them. We have been swallowing for many years. Fortunately, Wei Fengniang, a bitch, was killed by a female sword fairy in Chengdu. We wanted to go to Qingluo Mountain Recapture, who knows that the eight demons have been scared since Wei Fengniang's death, worshiped under the Venerable Poison Dragon in northern Yunnan, practiced many spells, and invited many capable people to help.

"I know that although they are powerful, there is a great method of disintegrating heavenly demons that can control them. My senior brother knows this method. He shouldn't have been destroyed by Wei Fengniang with a plain girl stealing Yuan in Qingluo Mountain a few years ago, and lost his pure Yang , it doesn’t work. Practicing this kind of Dafa requires a boy with a good foundation, a stable soul, and a strong mind. On a secluded mountaintop, facing west for two weeks and 36 days, it can be achieved. It’s just During these 36 days, you have to learn to sit in bigu meditation in advance, and then sit there and do things according to the law until you achieve great success. His life was in danger. Seeing that all the disciples in the temple were not virgins and could not practice this kind of Dafa, the elder brother wanted to find someone to replace him. After searching for many years, he occasionally met one or two who could barely use it. Who knows that their will is not strong. In the end, he lost his life in vain. Moreover, this kind of magic can only be practiced by someone who has never learned other swordsmanship or Taoism. Otherwise, his vitality has been refined by others, and it is still useless if it is mixed and impure, so it is very rare. .Yesterday we two disciples saw you carrying silver taels, and originally wanted to lay your hands on you as before. It was not until I introduced you to my senior brother that we realized that you were a virgin. At first we were not sure that you could do it, but later I tied you up for a day and a night, only to realize that you not only have a strong foundation, but also a strong mind and solid spirit, so I discussed with you. If you agree, not only will we have your help to take back Qingluo Mountain, You just have this once-in-a-thousand-year opportunity to learn the secret treasures of my Demon Cult. Isn’t it the best of both worlds? But when you learn, you have to put your life and death aside. No matter what horrible scenes are in front of you, they are all illusions. As long as you ignore them, they will disappear in an instant; If you can't grasp your mind, you will be in danger of your life immediately. I have explained the truth to you, if you don't follow, then don't blame us for poisoning you."

Yun Zhong saw that there were many suspicious points in his expression when he said it, and he knew it was never that simple, but he had become the meat of his father, and he couldn't get away without being manipulated by others; Zhengchou couldn't get in, if what he said was true, he could kill the Eight Demons if he learned this spell, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?After thinking about this stake in his chest for a while, he agreed temporarily, and then acted according to his own circumstances.He agreed.Nakayinshabu was overjoyed when he heard the words, and ordered someone to guard Yunzhong. He went out for a while, and came in with his senior brother Fana Jiayiner, and said happily to Yunzhong: "You are really a trustworthy, good man! I You went out on purpose for a long time, but no one was guarding you, but you didn't want to escape at all. Helping us succeeded, there is no doubt." After finishing speaking, he said another sentence.In the blink of an eye, Yunzhong came out from the wall with three fierce monks, holding a lot of food for Yunzhong to eat.Yunzhong was glad that he didn't want to escape.After Yunzhong was hungry, he took Yunzhong to take a bath and change clothes, and then led him to a clean room, where the fierce monk Fanajiayin Er taught him the method of sitting in the valley for a few days.Yunzhong is a smart person with excellent talents, and he can learn it as soon as he learns it.The two fierce monks were also very happy, so they secretly passed all the formulas to Yunzhong and memorized them silently.He told me again and again not to be afraid when encountering a mirage.It was night.At the third moment of Zizheng, Fanajiayin led Yunzhong to the courtyard and chanted the mantra.After a while, Yun Zhong felt his world spinning, and it was pitch black in front of him.When he woke up, he sat down on a rock on the top of a mountain, and he couldn't see the stars and the moon above his head, and he looked down from afar and it was pitch black.Just as he was about to stand up, he heard a person beside his ear say: "Don't move, I have sent four disciples to protect you by your side, and I will come to see you every night. Now you should do the same. "Yun Zhong heard the words, seeing that the matter has come to this point, and he doesn't know how to demon, he still sent someone to guard in the dark, if he wanted to escape, he would never be able to, so he simply calmed down as he said, and practiced the method of disintegrating the demon.do not mention.

It is said that Xinyuan, Xuanji Zibai, Xu, and Yu disappeared one after another, and the enemy did not come to disturb them. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with Dai's house, they resigned from Hengyu and Lingcao with Taoist Tie Mao, and moved to live in Guwangfeng. Practicing breathing out sword formulas every day, and sometimes going out for a walk in the mountains.This day, Xinyuan was looking out from the top of the peak, when he suddenly saw a strong man walking towards the foot of the mountain, he went to meet him and saw that it was Wei Qing, the golden dragon on land.It turned out that everyone was busy fighting with Lu Village that day, and it wasn't until the end of the matter that the Xiangjiang Five Heroes were leaving that they snatched Wei Qing's wife by a white ape and said they would come out.Xinyuan heard that Wei Qing rushed to the rescue alone, and there was no helper, so he was worried, so he wanted to invite one or two swordsmen to go with him to help him.Master Yuqing said: "I have heard for a long time that there is a white ape in the White Elephant Cliff of Hengshan Mountain, which walks like the wind, but I have never heard of it hurting people. Since the senior Guaihuaziling knew about it, he told Wei Qing to go to the rescue, and he would never stand still. It would be inappropriate for us to go." Hearing this, Xinyuan asked Master Yuqing for a divination, knowing that there was no danger, so he was relieved.He and Wei Qing are teachers, students, and good friends, and they always feel suspenseful when they don't see each other. When they suddenly met by accident, they were delighted, so they first asked Wei Qing about what happened that day.

Wei Qing said: "I heard Ling Zhenren say that my wife was snatched by the white ape. He also said that the white ape lives on the white elephant cliff and walks like flying. He was afraid that I would not be able to catch up. He instructed me to take a shortcut to chase after him, and he followed me behind my back. I patted on the top, and walked quickly. I met the Five Heroes of Xiangjiang at the entrance of the valley. Master Ling didn't want their help, but urged me to leave. As soon as I came out of the entrance of the valley, I felt my body lightly and flew straight forward. The long stream of the big river passed the bank in a blink of an eye. After walking for a while, I saw a group of white shadows in front of me flying towards the northeast. Gradually approaching, I heard the sound of my wife crying. Chasing, chasing, chasing to A stone cliff, and I went into the hole. Looking closer, the hole had been blocked by the guy with stones. I used the steel claws in my waist to push the door, and finally pushed the hole open. The white ape jumped out and used a wooden stick. I don't know what kind of wood it was made of, and fought with me for a long time. The guy was tall and nimble, and he was several feet tall. I was so tired that I was sweating all over, and gradually I couldn't resist. I was knocked over by that fellow with a stick, tied my hands and feet with two ivy vines, and dragged me into the cave. My wife was also inside, and when she saw that I was captured, she rushed forward and hugged me and cried bitterly. The white ape came up and dragged me She, my wife, desperately grabbed my clothes and didn't let go. When I dragged them away, a large piece of my clothes was torn off, revealing the dragon pattern tattooed on my arms. The man immediately let my wife go, approached me, and It tore off the clothes on my left arm, revealing a bare arm. I was worried that it would go to my wife in front of me. Seeing it tearing my clothes, I thought it was going to eat me raw. The ivy was as thick as a teacup, tied It was very strong, and I couldn't get rid of it. I was so angry that my eyes burst out. Death is nothing, and the most feared thing is that my wife will be raped by it. So I said loudly to my wife: "Do you still want to live?" One sentence reminded my wife that my wife was very violent, and she slammed her head against the stone wall, intending to kill herself. Who would have thought that guy knew how to speak, and as soon as I said it, he turned around, my wife Before hitting the top of the stone wall, it was already stopped by it.

"At this moment, it suddenly changed its ferocious look, and compared its hands to the two of us, but we didn't understand. It seemed that it was going to come to me again, and it was afraid that my wife would die, so it dragged my wife over. The teacup The thick ivy was pulled by its hand, and it could be smashed. It just untied me. I didn't have a weapon in my hand, so I punched it when I jumped up. The guy didn't fight back, but only protected my wife, fearing that she would die. That fellow is physically agile, and because he wanted to protect my wife, he punched me dozens of times, causing him to scream and compare his hands to me. I didn't know what it meant when it waved at me, because it kept blocking me. In front of my wife, the more he beat me, the more angry he became. The guy's skin and bones were hard, and although he was beaten with heavy hands, it hurt, but he couldn't hurt him. After beating for a long time, he caught a glimpse of the steel claw I used and was caught. I snatched it up and picked it up in my hand. I was about to use the unique trick you taught me about the hidden dragon on the top of the scattered flowers to grab the pearl. First, I would blind that guy in both eyes, and then take his life. Just as the claws were about to go out, a person suddenly appeared on the ground. , it was that rotten flower, Master Ling, who stretched out his hand to take my steel claws first. The white ape thought he knew how powerful he was, so he immediately gave up my wife and knelt down. Master Ling first said to the ape: "You cultivate Well done, what kind of heart do you want to move, this beating is not too much, right?' Hearing this, the white ape hugged Ling Zhenren's black mud legs and got big. I hate that guy, but he was about to give in I beat it to death with my claws. Master Ling only waved his hand, and it was as if something out of thin air stopped me from going forward. Master Ling said to me again: "It has been beaten enough by you, and you don't need to worry about it." Hit it again. Although it shouldn't be tempted to carry your wife back for a while, if it doesn't have a good conscience, it will recognize the dragon tattoo on your left arm and remember your life-saving grace at the Xiangtan Wangjiaji 15 years ago. , with your ability, it would be easy for it to take your life, and you can still let you beat it for a long time? Besides, you rebelled against Lu Xianming and went to the meeting with them. I shouldn't have asked your wife to try Escaped. Fortunately, it was snatched away by the white ape. Otherwise, Lu and Guo would go back and understand your actions. Wouldn’t it be in vain that she would be murdered? The reason why the white ape protected your wife later was because you let it go in the past Enyi, because your wife is fierce, she is afraid that she will die, and you know that you can't hurt it, so if you hit it, it won't fight back. I've been here for a while, I hate that this beast shouldn't act rashly, and I'm still useful I am happy to use your hands to punish it. Later, you tried to blind it with steel claws, so I came out to stop it. Now that your wife has been rescued, this beast will not have evil intentions again. The Taoist will soon go to Qingluo Mountain to clean up the eight demons. No matter who you are, as long as you can meet me, most of them are destined. I will give you a small gadget. You can take it to find relatives and friends first, and settle your wife. Then go to the valley Wang Feng will go with them to fight the Eight Demons, and it will be for your own benefit.' After that, give me a soft whip made of vines. I don't know what it's called, and he won't let me ask, so I can only thank you and accept it. .

"At this time, the white ape was still kneeling and hugging his knees, howling constantly. Master Ling said: 'I blame Huazi Linghun for not accepting disciples. Now that I have opened the precepts, I will simply kill you, who has not melted your bones. The beast is going to be my apprentice. Since you are begging so hard, if you can do something difficult for me, I will take you in." The white ape nodded and kowtowed like garlic. Master Ling thought he knew It was willing, and I saw him put his hand into the throat of the white ape, as if he heard a sound of brittle bones breaking. The white ape could actually speak human language. I didn’t recognize his surname Ling at first, because the white ape called it Ling. He called after Ling Zhenren. After the white ape could speak human language, Ling Zhenren gave it two more pills to eat, and led it out of the cave with my husband and wife. Walking through the foot of the slope, I saw it lying on the ground A big man, unconscious. Next to him was a broken dead snake and a pile of iron arrows wrapped in colorful silk. Looking carefully, it was the Miao man Yao Kaijiang. When asked the reason, he realized that Master Ling knew that he was powerful. Fearing that his poisonous arrows would hurt people, he first cleaned up his Yuanshen, and then led Dai Jiachang to subdue him. Because his Yuanshen was dead, he was knocked into a coma by Ling Zhenren's divine thunder, so he was unconscious. Reverend Ling quietly gave some instructions to Bai Yuan, and took out a pill from his body and handed it to Bai Yuan. Tell it to wake up Yao Kaijiang with the pill after we leave, and then carry him away. Wait until Master Ling tells Bai Yuan After I finished, I ordered my husband and wife to leave with him, and he used magic to send my husband and wife to the home of a close relative in Xiangtan. Just as he was about to thank him, he just said "goodbye" and disappeared in a blink of an eye. After thinking about it, I just I remembered that the white ape was at the home of Teacher Wang, who I first learned as my teacher when I was young. I saw my senior brother Wuzhi Kaishan Wang sent a message to capture an old ape with a gray back from hunting in Hengshan. Fire nature, let’s train again. I was young and ignorant, and I couldn’t bear to hear it howling day and night, so I let it go secretly while my senior brother was away. At that time, I had this dragon tattoo on my left arm. I can’t think of 15 years , Its fur will turn white, and it will actually see the dragon pattern on my body and think of the previous grace, and will not return my hand.

"After I settled my wife, I came to look for you. I didn't want to meet you as soon as I came. I remember that there were many capable people I had never met in Daijiachang that day. Could you lead me to meet them?"

Xinyuan told the past one by one, and went with him to meet Taoist Tie Mao and Huang Xuanji.

From then on, Wei Qing lived temporarily in Guwang Temple, waiting quietly to go to Qingluo Mountain before the Duanyang Festival. From time to time, Tong Xinyuan and Xuanji went to Daijiachang to visit Hengyu and Lingcao.Hengyu and his sister Xiangying are very friendly. When Xiangying left, he originally talked about Bailong Nunnery in Hanyang. Master Yuqing introduced Master Suyin to be a disciple of Master Suyin. .So I asked Xinyuan to leave a few days earlier, and made a detour to Bailong Nunnery in Hanyang to see if Xiangying had been included.Ling Cao also entrusted Xinyuan to wait. When he meets all the sword immortals, he should pay attention to find out Yunzhong's whereabouts. If he meets him at Qingluo Mountain, he will at least persuade him to come back.Xinyuan and Xuanji all agreed one by one.Go back and discuss with Taoist Tie Mao, plan to leave in early April, visit Xiangying in Hanyang first, and take a letter to Hengyu.Then take the Kuizhou Jiange to Sichuan by land, and go to Qingluo Mountain beside the Sichuan to go to the appointment of the Eight Demons.We discussed it once, because there was Wei Qing traveling with us, fortunately there was nothing wrong, and it was still early, so we decided to leave early and enjoy the scenery along the way.

On the first day of April, Taoist Tie Mao set off from Changsha together with Xin Yuan, Xuan Ji, and Wei Qing.After walking for not many days, I arrived in Hanyang, and finally found Bailong Nunnery, and Master Yuqing had already left.Meeting Master Yuan Yuan's apprentice Hong Niang Yu Yinggu, and asked about Xiangying's whereabouts, only to find out that on the day Master Yuqing arrived, Master Suyin happened to be out visiting friends the night before and was not in the nunnery.Master Yuqing originally wanted to stay in Xiangying's nunnery to wait for Master Suyin to come back. Xiangying must have been determined to go with Master Yuqing, but Master Yuqing could not do so, so he had to take her to Chengdu again.When the four of them heard the words, they had no choice but to leave.Xinyuan suddenly remembered that he had heard from Master Yuqing that Tao Jun is now learning swordsmanship in Qingcheng Mountain, Sichuan, why not go visit Tao Jun, and pay his respects to his master, the dwarf old man Zhu Mei?Although this old man is a senior Sword Immortal who has been enlightened for many years, he is enthusiastic, loves injustice, and is more energetic than young people, if he can help him to go to Qingluo Mountain, wouldn't it be great?After the four of them discussed and agreed, they asked Huang Xuanji to bring Wei Qing first.Xinyuan went to Sanyou Cave in Yichang with Taoist Tie Mao first, to plead guilty to the master monk Yifan, and asked him to come down the mountain to help.Then drive Jianguang to catch up with Huang and Wei, and go along the waterway to Mount Qingcheng.The idea of ​​detouring the Shaanxi border and walking along the Jiange plank road was cancelled.

After the four of them broke up, Xinyuan and Taoist Tie Mino moved quickly with Jian Guang, and within a day they arrived at Sanyou Cave.After staying for a while, Taoist Tie Liao came out and said that not only the heroic monk Yifan was not in the cave, but Xu Yue was not here either.There was only an old deaf-mute monk living in the cave, and he couldn't answer any questions he asked.Xinyuan heard the words, so he went in with Taoist Tie Liao, looking for the chivalrous monk Yifan and Xu Yue to see if there were any handwritings left behind.The deaf-mute monk saw the two people looking for him, he thought he knew their intentions, so he took out a piece of paper from a broken futon and handed it to Xinyuan.Xinyuan saw that it was Xu Yue who left behind.It turned out that under the guidance of the dwarf old man Zhu Mei, Xu Yue left Daijiachang, went home and arranged some housework, and then went to join the teacher.Fortunately, Sanyou Cave is located in the upper reaches of Yichang. It is a famous scenic spot, and people often visit it, so it is very easy to find it.It was also a coincidence that Xu Yue arrived at Sanyou Cave just in time.It turned out that the heroic monk Yifan could not be isolated from the world even though the scenery of Sanyou Cave was beautiful.He first practiced in the back cave, which was originally isolated from the front cave. For some reason, he revealed his deeds to a caring person and spread it, saying that there is a back cave in Sanyou cave that no one has ever been to. There is an eminent monk living in it. How wonderful and so on.Ordinary people have many happy events. Since last winter, some ordinary people have come to him to ask him about Buddhist teachings.The heroic monk Yifan was impatient to be disturbed and was about to leave when Xu Yue happened to arrive.The heroic monk Yifan saw that Xu Yue's roots were still thick, and he was introduced by his old friend Zhu Mei, so he agreed.Not long after Xu Yue became a teacher, the heroic monk Yifan took Xu Yue to Qionglai Mountain near Sichuan to visit his friends.Because there are many scriptures hidden in the stone wall of the back cave, it is inconvenient to take them away for the time being, so I went to find the deaf-mute monk to guard him for him.When Xu Yue was in Daijiachang, he had heard from Xinyuan about his feud with the Eight Demons and his past offenses against his master. He was afraid that his master had a special temperament and he was a newcomer, so he dared not intercede for his senior brother.Afraid that Xinyuan would not know the whereabouts of his master and apprentice when he came, he wrote this note before leaving and asked the deaf-mute monk to pass it on for him.The deaf-mute monk was punished to be deaf-mute for 30 years because he violated the precepts of his master Xueshanle monk.Xu Yue wrote down the tasks entrusted to him on a piece of paper. Although he is deaf and dumb, his abilities and spirituality still exist, but he just keeps a low profile and waits for evil.He was entrusted by Xu Yue, and when he saw the source of his heart, he delivered Xu Yue's note.His origin has been explained during the three Emei sword fights.

When Taoist Iron Man saw the note, he felt that the deaf-mute monk was not an ordinary person. He also saw that the heroic monk Yifan entrusted him to guard the scriptures. Entrusting him to take care of it, I know that there is a big reason.But judging by his demeanor, he doesn't seem to be pretending to be deaf, and he can't figure out what his intentions are.Asked him several times, the deaf-mute monk seemed to be forced to do nothing, took a bald pen, and wrote on the paper the eight characters "I feel bad, I will meet you again", after writing, I went to the futon to meditate up.Knowing that he didn't want anyone to stay here, Taoist Tie Mino wanted to try him out, deliberately pretending to be secretly looking for scriptures, and walked towards the stone wall behind him.Before he stretched out his hand, the deaf-mute monk had already noticed it. He raised his hand and patted the top of his head, and the hole was immediately filled with golden light.Taoist Tie Liao knew something was wrong, so he grabbed his heart source, united his body and sword, and broke through the air and rose.Looking back, amidst the golden light and red clouds, a naked young monk more than three feet tall chased after him.Taoist Tie Liao didn't really steal scriptures, he was trying to test his ability, but he was hurt by the enemy, so he had to press Jian Guang to escape.After going out for about ten miles, I didn't come to chase after me, so I dropped the sword light and said to Xinyuan: "I didn't expect him to be so powerful! Because I suspected that he was pretending to be deaf and dumb, I deliberately tried him, but I didn't want him to be wrong. I You can still resist. If you walk slowly, you will be troubled. Judging from his history, he seems to be the descendant of the Buddhist heart sword passed down by the monk. Now the master has arrived in Qionglai, which is very close to Qingluo Mountain. Maybe I will go for you." Xinyuan said: "I hope this is the best. The disciple has no other thoughts now, but hopes to get rid of the eight demons, the teacher forgives the past, and still has to return to the sect. From then on, I wish you a family , Yong'an Zen Joy, my wish is enough." Taoist Tie Mino smiled and did not answer.Now drive Jianguang together, catch up with Huang and Wei, and head for Sichuan together.

Wei Qing's pace was fast, and in a few days, the four of them arrived in Chengdu.First, I took a look at the four famous ancestral halls and temples outside the city, and then went to Bixie Village to meet Master Yuqing. Seeing Zhang Qi and his sister, I knew that Master Yuqing had taken Xiangying to find Master Suyin.Qing Yun and Wen Qi missed their master, Master Fan Xia, because they hadn't seen their master for a long time, so they also went back to Huangshan while they were free for a while.The four chatted for a while, and then left.

Xinyuan was eager to see Tao Jun, and urged to go to Mount Qingcheng in Guan County.When I arrived at Jinbian Cliff in Qingcheng Mountain, I saw Tao Jun and Ji Deng sitting opposite each other and playing chess.It turned out that since Tao Jun arrived in Qingcheng, he practiced swordsmanship every day under the formula taught by the dwarf Zhu Mei, and with Giden's dedicated guidance, he made great progress. Unity, but it is already handy, and the command is satisfactory.Ji Deng is a more special person than his master, and he will get along with Tao Jun very irresistibly.The two of them finished their homework every day, and instead of going to gather herbs to climb up, they played chess in front of the cliff.The weather was fine that day, the two played chess again, and suddenly saw four people coming up from the cliff.Ji Deng recognized Taoist Tie Mao, and hurriedly went to see him.Tao Jun saw that one was his former master Zhao Xinyuan, and he was overjoyed, so he wanted to go forward and bow down.Xinyuan hurriedly pulled him back, and said: "My dear brother, please stop doing this. In the past, I knew that I was not capable enough, and I was afraid I would mislead you. If you want to be called as before, not only will you have a wrong seniority, but Brother Yu will feel ashamed. Why don't you call him brother from now on." Tao Jun still refused, so Xinyuan had to be left to him for the time being.They all introduced each other, introduced their names, and said admiration to each other for a while, then Ji Deng invited everyone to sit in the temple.

After sitting down, talk to each other about the future.Tao Jun was very happy to hear that Xu Yue had been included by the chivalrous monk Yifan.After Xinyuan said goodbye to him, he went to Changsha Valley Wangfeng to look for Taoist Tieyu. He didn't meet him. He met two demons on a snowy night. The poor god Ling Hun was born for the second time to subdue Yao Kaijiang, and Bai, Yu, Ling, and Dai abandoned their homes one after another to become teachers.Tao Jun also told the story of how he happened to meet his mentor, the dwarf Zhu Mei, by the Hangao River, and was led to Qingcheng Mountain to learn Taoism, and how he is studying sooner or later.Ji Deng said: "This old senior Ling is really a strange sword fairy. In terms of ability, although I don't know how great it is, but after hearing his words and actions in the past few years, no one has ever said that he was defeated by others. A few days ago I heard from the master that he has recently enlightened to heaven and man, and he will return to the true world soon. He really wants to find one or two successors. This must be the reason for his second trip to the mountain. However, he had a feud with Master Bai in the past, and I don’t know if it has been resolved now. Daoyou Wei is going to Qingluo Mountain with the three of them, and he must come out to participate. Even if the Eight Demons are powerful, how can they be his opponents? Daoyou Zhao will definitely be safe when he goes this time."

Xinyuan asked Ji and Tao to introduce Zhu Mei.Tao Jun said: "Master, the old man's whereabouts are uncertain, he doesn't often watch, maybe we are missing him, maybe he will show up right away." When the four heard that Zhu Mei was not in the watch, they felt that it was a coincidence.Ji Deng suddenly smiled at Tao Jun and said, "Brother, would you like to ask Master to help fellow Daoist Zhao?" Tao Jun said, "Is there any reason not to?" Master doesn't like me very much. I think he has a high regard for you, if you go with fellow Taoist Zhao now, you are not an opponent of the Eight Demons, how can master just sit back and watch?" Tao Jun was also a juvenile happy event, he had just mastered the flying sword, There is nowhere to use it, and Xinyuan is his good teacher and friend, and he is very willing to help him.Because of the vicious reputation of the eight demons, he estimated that his ability was limited, and he didn't have the order of his master, so he didn't dare to speak rashly.Hearing what Ji Deng said, knowing that he was willing to take care of Master, he took heart and replied: "I really want to follow. One is that I don't have Master's orders, and the other is that although I can fly swords, I can't unite with swords." , and the road is far away, I'm afraid it will miss Teacher Zhao's important matter, so I'm embarrassed." Ji Deng said: "Since I told you to go, of course I will take care of it for you. Not only can you keep up with the three of them, but also this fellow Daoist Wei, I I can send him there. Fortunately, it’s still early, and I intend to stay here for a few days. Although I can’t leave here to help, I will send my junior brother to go sightseeing. What do you think?”

Xinyuan reunited with Tao Jun after a long absence, and saw him learn swordsmanship from Zhu Mei, so happy for him.Because I didn't listen to the teacher's words at the beginning, I only learned a little, and went down the mountain rashly, which made the master take offense, and I suffered everywhere, so I didn't really want Tao Jun to go with me.The manager Dengyi said that he is Zhu Mei's senior disciple, with superb swordsmanship, it's still early, and he is happy to get together with Jiu Yu here for a while, so as to recruit two more helpers.Huang and Wei were originally invited by the source of their hearts, and there is no problem.Taoist Tieyong and the two elders, the heroic monk Yifan, Xinyuan, and Ji Deng's teachers and students are all friends of later generations.His swordsmanship was first passed down from Zhongnan Lezhong, and after Lezhong became enlightened, he left Zhongnan School to form a family of his own.Because Ji Deng and Xin Yuan knew the master, they all held the gift of juniors.But he doesn't call himself that.This time, following Xinyuan to Yunnan via Sichuan, I originally wanted to visit two friends on the way. Seeing that Xinyuan and others were temporarily staying in Qingcheng, I told everyone that I had rushed to Qingluo Mountain before Duanyang. Go, say goodbye to everyone.Ji Deng couldn't keep him, so he had to send him off respectfully.After Taoist Tie Mino left Xinyuan, Xinyuan and the other three stayed in Qingcheng, waiting for Duanyang to arrive.do not mention.
