Chapter 205 – Going up and down the mountain
The light rain gradually stopped, the sun is getting higher, Xu Fengyen began to climb the mountain, passing through the True Dragon Temple, Maiden Slope and Yellow Monkey Ridge, and then over the Tiger Jumping Post to Leigongjian, even if he walked through half of the mountain road. Xu Fengyen in that Leigongjian and saw several sets of customers, mostly sitting on the rocks next to the stream rest, swallowing the snacks carried food, after all, the mountain road is muddy, the most can eat people’s energy, a few sets of those who are well-bred son of a young girl, it looks extremely tired, a few young women are gently beat the calves, complaining about the companions have complained about the scenery of this sacred path can be with the name of the Wudang Mountain! Difference is too big, said earlier that a few shabby Taoist temple small and unbearable, a look is not able to fit down the immortal characters of the ground, those who are real people in the mountain is no immortal style Taoist bone can be said, as for the heard beforehand Wudang Mountain mountain such as Lotus peaks such as bamboo shoots of moving picture, is more shadow also did not see. They traveled all the way, the scenery along the way is not good to say that the poor mountains and water, but with the beautiful mountains and water of the Taoist heavenly paradise is also really not match ah. Xu Fengyen picked a relatively quiet and sparsely populated creek bank to sit down, ancient trees, green shade, although there is no out of the ordinary behavior, waist wearing double knife he is actually quite eye-catching, especially the knowledge of the locals, when they see the handle of the Northern Liang knife, the eyes of the eyes of a few more complex meaning, nowadays within the territory of the Northern Liang Road, private wear Liang knife, regardless of the family history, are arrested and sent to prison, then Xu Fengyen was treated as a person in the ranks, which is in fact normal, the Wudang Lotus Peak held a grand ceremony, but it was not a good idea to go there. The Wudang Lotus Peak is hosting a powerful debate on Buddhism and Taoism, of course, the Northern Liang military will place competent manpower to keep an eye on the situation in case of negligence.
Xu Fengyen suddenly looked up and saw a pair of acquaintances walking together, once with himself in the small pillar peak sitting and discussing the Taoist Han Gui, Qingshan Guan master, and his disciple Qingxin little Taoist boy. Xu Fengyen hurriedly got up to welcome, for this was Wang Chonglou Hong Zuixiang successive two masters of the eyes of the Taoist priests, Xu Fengyen is very good, think that deservedly mountain people, Han Gui dedicated to cultivation, cultivation of the heart is also the cultivation of the truth. To Xu Fengyen’s status as a feudal lord, when the palm of the law of the real Chen Cao or Yu Xingrui rushed to the foot of the mountain to personally meet, but still let a generation of Taoist Han Gui is responsible for this matter, this is probably the Wudang Mountain’s unique beauty of the mountain, not only will not let a person feel slow, on the contrary, but also can be a smile, if it is hiking with the two elderly real people, the gift is to the mountain, but in addition to the mountain road the longer the more the word is poor polite pleasantries, but also can talk about what? How boring would that be. Han Gui saw Xu Fenian, smiled and played a Taoist welcome bow, also did not make a fuss shouting identity, Xu Fenian gently cupped his fists to return the salute. The young Taoist boy Qingxin, who is not very old but not low in seniority, did not see the Yu Dilong who used to play together in the mountain, his face was full of loss Heaven gets one to clear, the earth gets one to be peaceful, God gets one to be spiritual, and the king of Hou gets one to be the world’s chastity. The old master Wang Chonglou and those several disciples of the highest generation, followed by the current master Li Yu axe and Han Gui this generation of Taoist, and then the Taoist sage canon in this passage to rank generation, Qing Ning Ling Ching four words four generations, so the mountain of the word generation of the mountain of the chastity of the Taoist, even if the age of the mountain is not young, see Qing Shan Guan’s young Taoist child Qing Xin, as much as need to call out a great master uncle ancestor or the great master uncle ancestor. If he traveled down the mountain, this little Taoist monk with the same seniority as Wudang’s direct disciple Yu Fu, I’m afraid that he would be honored as a Little Immortal.
Han Gui sat beside Xu Fenian and smiled, “The white-robed monks of the Two Zen Temples have already ascended the mountain by the Southern Divine Path, while Zhao Ningshen, the contemporary Tianshi of the Longhu Mountain Tianshi House, and Mr. Qinglian, Bai Yu, are also on their way here.”
Xu Fengyen was a bit surprised and said, “Zhao Ningshen is even willing to show his support and traveled thousands of miles to come to our Northern Liang? I’ve had a lot of trouble with this Minister of Feathered Clothes.”
Han Gui had never traveled down the mountain, and had been studying in the mountains without asking about the world, so he had never heard of the battle of the immortals on the Chun Shen Lake that shocked the world and made the gods cry. Not interested in what conflicts that Huang Zi nobleman with the same surname as the Son of Heaven had with the young vassal king, skipped the topic and softly said, “No less than a hundred famous men of the Huainan Dao and Jiangnan Dao, also traveling in pairs, will climb the mountain and stay at dusk tonight.”
Xu Fengyen nodded and smiled, “The spies have mentioned this matter, it’s really hard for this group of elegant celebrities to drink half a decade of northwestern winds in our Northern Liang.”
Xu Fengyen of course knows that to make this group of high-minded readers come to Beiliang on their own initiative, Song Dongming who used to be one of Liyang Reserve Minister’s deputy strategy envoys, Yan Song who returned to his hometown at the age of seventy-nine, and after that his family came to Wudang to burn incense in the officialdom, and Han Guzi who led a group of disciples to travel the border previously, these three people could not be faulted for their efforts. If they do not lead, even if there is that scholar to cool the scene of the scholar to save the country, but also absolutely can not impress this group of growth in the Central Plains fish and rice country rich land of noble readers.
A different image is born horizontally! Xu Fengyen instantly slid backwards from this bank of the stream on the water to the other bank, but even with such a severe sneak attack, Xu Fengyen still did not even have the intention to draw his sword. Feeling only a gust of wind raging past his ears, the young Daoist child Qing Xin stared wide-eyed and saw that beside himself and his master there was an additional tall woman in plain clothes and dresses, not too old and good-looking, but her face was too cold, countless times more ugly than the face of that Palmistry old real person who had accidentally tasted his own burnt rice. The little Taoist boy saw this eccentric sister narrowing those eyes after a long, slender like the bamboo leaves on the mountain.
Stream near those fish and dragons mixed incense first stunned, soon there is a sex eloquent good people loudly applauded, vision, was that the young man wearing a sword wrinkled water ripples gradually dissipate, a man and a woman on both sides of the river face each other, handsome men and beautiful people, and each have not bad patriarchal aura, how to see how to see the two people between the two is a big story to be told. This instantly let the mountain road walking boredom of the spirit of the incense, can not wait for the two to fight the landslide is too much, of course, it is best to light up the identity of the clan before striking, reported on the jianghu nicknames, said that can be sung and cry of grudges and feuds, and then life and death to fight a battle, then this trip to the Wudang trip is really not in vain.
In fact the initiative to back off Xu Fengyen asked with a smile, “Aren’t you back to Hui Mountain?”
Today do not wear purple and plain white cold woman sneered: “Continuously rolling interest down, I am too late to collect the debt, even you may not be able to afford to pay back.”
Probably think that this pair of men and women is really young and strange, even if the martial arts cultivation is good that is also high to a limited extent, soon there are not very patient spectators yelled: “Fight ah, how not to fight, fight well, fight beautifully, we immediately turn back to go to the jianghu to help you two to say some good things about the name!”
More people don’t know what to do and coaxed: “hurry up, the two of you don’t want to just move your lips without hands ……”.
Taoist priest Han Gui sighed softly, only hoping that if Xu Fengyen really fought with that strange woman, he would not be affected by it. So at this time he held up his disciple and walked towards the pile of people, seemingly taking refuge but actually helping to block the disaster.
At this time there have been self-styled jianghu people in the guy talking, to jianghu layman’s explanation of which doorway, said the world of martial arts realm is divided into nine grades, in the final analysis, are in the skin, flesh, sinews, bones, body, qi and god seven words above the fight, layer by layer, only to the second grade of the realm of the small masters, in order to feel the threshold of the qi, for example, the world of the swordsman among the two grades, you can barely harness the qi machine off the hands of the sword. Look at that waist wear double sword handsome boy to people back, by the stream above the slip to the other bank, but the calf is not soaked, this obviously has a real four realm or even three meteorological category, think to his age, in a state and a county in a well-deserved martial arts rookie leader.
Xu Fenian suddenly laughed: “To fight can be, but we still have to do a small business, you just help me find someone, then the place and time as you pick, and the victory or defeat you say.”
She hesitated for a moment and finally nodded.
Xu Fenian curiously asked, “Do you want that name that much?”
Xu Fengyen was incomparably clear that even if the woman in front of him had more than enough wonders, she was hampered by her talent and roots, and becoming at the Great Heavenly Elephant realm was already the ultimate in her martial arts path. This Huishan Da Xue Ping hostess’s martial arts journey can be described as thrilling, first with the “treasonous” sinister secret technique to annex other people’s qi for their own use, barely ranked amongst the first grade, if not for him Xu Fenian previously used the secret stash of several jade seals from the Listening Tide Pavilion to help suppress the fluttering of the qi, it is very possible for her to go into a demonic state, or even perish in this way. After that, she quickly crossed the finger Xuan into the realm of the heavenly image, Wang Xianzhi hit her body but ultimately punched under the person, why not save her life, otherwise even if she obtained Zhao Huang Chao and Liu Songtao’s respective gifts, she is difficult to escape the mysterious heavenly image of the great calamity. It can be said, she Xuanyuan Qingfeng’s martial arts road, walking ups and downs, time and time again in the fire, can be called his Xu Fengyen after the first person, but also because of this, Xu Fengyen treatment of this obsession with the woman, always very good to talk, in the north of the Liang so, so in the capital, so, in the Hui Mountain reunion is more so, today Wudang Mountain encounter is also the initiative to avoid its sharpness, know that the previous Dengmao and the Yelu Dongbed can not have this treatment. Accurately speaking, Xu Fengyen and her Xuanyuan Qingfeng, talk about what men and women love, Xu Fengyen may be from some of the same disease, and she is probably because of the heart of the accumulated grievances, which makes the two away from the sun on top of the fastest men and women of the martial arts seem entangled.
Although Xu Fengyen knew early on that Xuanyuan Qingfeng’s heart of victory was very heavy, but she had already been the first female martial arts alliance leader in hundreds of years, why she still had to compete for that illusory world’s first, was still puzzling to Xu Fengyen.
This farce of loud thunder and little rain, let many spectators feel bored, the world is so, do not give hope is no harm, give hope and let people disappointed the most hateful, many short-tempered jianghu people can not help but loud cynicism, whispering bad words. I do not know why has not been a long time to purple clothes in the world of Xuanyuan Qingfeng, oblique glanced at this group of more than croaking spectators, just a glance, let the crowd silent. Xu Fengyen couldn’t help but look at those secretly shrinking their necks, thinking that when he was wandering in the jianghu and watched those high and mighty warrior fairies, it was probably the same scene. Afterwards Xu Fengyen and Xuanyuan Qingfeng in Han Gui Qingxin master and disciple lead the way to continue to climb the mountain, successively over the eyebrow ridge and go jiao slope, the next is the Wudang main mountain lotus peak, Xuanyuan Qingfeng all the way speechless, to the foot of the lotus peak, she finally opened her mouth and said: “Li Chungang’s two sleeves of the blue serpent, Deng Ta’a inverted holding Ta’a, Gu Jiantang’s square inch of lightning, the last style of Song Nianqing’s life handed out to the sword, Huang Zhentu’s ninth sword six , Huang Zhentu’s Ninth Sword of Six Thousand Miles, Sword Qi near Huang Qing’s Sixteen Views of the Living Buddha, and Artemisia Liu’s Thunder Pool, before you ascend to the peak, you tell me each and every one of them.”
Seeing Xu Fengnian frowning, Xuanyuan Qingfeng coldly said, “If you have a move you don’t want to talk about, you can also replace it with a similar top move, or …… a move that you created yourself is fine.”
Listening to that large list of names, the little Taoist boy Qing Xin only felt that the heavenly thunder rolled, it was too scary. It only felt that this sister’s appetite, it was so big.
Xu Fengnian asked in a deep voice, “Are you trying to combine the strengths of a hundred schools of thought into one furnace? Do you really have no death wish for the Land Immortals? Didn’t Zhao Huang Chao remind you back then that your situation is somewhat similar to my brother Huang Ban Er? Things don’t come in threes, allowing you to luckily escape the legacy of the Finger Xuan Heavenly Elephant two level realm, if you still insist on being amongst the Land Immortals, aren’t you afraid of a flash in the pan?”
Xuanyuan Qingfeng indifferently said, “This is my business.”
From start to finish this one was not a pleasant twat ah.
Xu Fengnian laughed, “Alright, old man Sheepskin Fur’s Two Sleeves Green Snake can’t be taught to you, as a matter of fact I can’t teach you at all for a while, and I can’t trespass to teach you Peach Blossom Sword God’s Inverted Sword, as for old Huang’s Sword Nine you don’t want to think about it even more, but Gu Jiantang’s Square Inch Thunder, Song Nianqing’s Walking Sword, and Artemis Liu’s Thunder Pool are all fine, and Huang Qing’s Sixteen Observations of the Sword Tip Sitting Buddha are also not hard to do! , in addition to that, I’ll tell you a little bit more about Topaz Bodhisattva’s unique way of operating qi, as well as the Fifth Raccoon of Tibing Mountain and the two crushing moves of Murong Baoding, if you learn fast enough, I still have quite a lot of goodies, so feel free to take them.”
This time it was Xuanyuan Qingfeng’s turn to feel unimaginable, turning her head to gaze at this somewhat perverse fellow, her eyes looked like she was saying it’s just as well that I’m asking for everything, but you’re actually even saving to sit on the ground and pay back the money ah.
Xu Feng Nian smiled, “I will teach you one by one, but you also have to promise me a condition, in the future, find one or a few disciples, you also need to teach them everything, even if you try not to let this point of the jianghu fragrance break.”
The four of them then went up the mountain, Han Gui intentionally took the young Daoist boy Qing Xin to walk in front, pulling away a large distance. Xu Fengnian really knew everything, explaining the essence of those top martial arts in the world for Xuanyuan Qingfeng. Xu Fengyuan Qingfeng memorized them all, and occasionally, if he did not understand something, he would not hesitate to get to the bottom of it, and would even directly interrupt Xu Fengyen’s words at the subtle points, and let him continue his story only after he had thought about it carefully. On this mountain road, Xu Fengyen was like a knowledgeable teacher, while Xuanyuan Qingfeng was a competent disciple who was very attentive to rote memorization.
In the back of the big lotus peak near the top of the mountain only one mile road of the white dragon back, standing in the distance Han Gui turned his head and found that the two have stopped, the next scene, but also let this is very likely to be the next wudang headmaster of the young daoist staggered, Xu Fengyen and the woman respectively, the former not light kicked the latter’s buttocks, the latter is obviously already annoyed, the whole white dragon back suddenly killing, but I do not know the young king of the clan to say a word, the woman froze! But I don’t know what words the young feudal lord said, the woman froze, actually stopped there, and went down the mountain.
The little Taoist boy Qing Xin immediately admired to the ground, thinking that they later if they can also break into the world, must have that half of the style of the Northern Liang King.
When the three of them climbed the mountain again, Rao Han Gui couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Your Highness and that woman are old acquaintances?”
Xu Fengnian smiled and nodded, softly saying, “It is an enemy who has known for some years, and kicking her in the face is a personal …… dream, right?”
The young Taoist of Qing character generation thought very seriously, thinking of that fairy sister’s cold and colorful appearance and arrogant air, without feeling that that person’s dream would be childish, hehehe laughed: “Your Majesty, that kick is very powerful, I like it!”
Han Gui rubbed his brow and had a headache.
Extremely far away, there was a cold snort.
It scared the little Daoist child to goosebumps.
Xu Fenian rubbed the child’s head and gloated, “You’re miserable, within twenty years, don’t ever go down the mountain to the jianghu.”
The little Taoist timidly said, “That sister, very powerful?”
Xu Fenian smiled, “The woman who wants to be the second to Wang Xianzhi, do you think it’s powerful?”
The young Taoist said bitterly, “No wonder the young master granduncle always said that the women under the mountain are tigers!”
Right at this moment, a white-robed monk with big sleeves fluttered and came striding from the top of the mountain, looking like he was going to fight Xu Fengnian to the death.
