The surrounding seventy-two peaks are all tilted towards the main peak, as the saying goes: ‘seventy-two peaks towards the big top, twenty-four streams flowing forever’, and there are thirty-six rocks and eleven caves, three pools and nine springs, ten pools and nine wells, ten rocks and nine platforms…….This trip to this place, make sure to stay for a few more months, and slowly enjoy. Slowly enjoy the fun.”

Yin Liu immediately red face, was about to retort, suddenly thought of Ji Xiaorong if this really live not to go, then the Wudang Mountain and the immortal world how different? A moment of red face and ears can not speak, Ji Xiaorong drank: “Sister Li, you see the sixth brother honest, so you only care about bullying him?”
Going forward to wring her waist tender meat, Li Caixia immediately screamed surrender.
Laughing and joking, all the people off the boat, through the county and through, into the mountains traveled twenty to thirty miles, vaguely see the flying eaves of the purple sky palace.
Mo Qixi happy: “arrived, arrived!” Quickly walk in front of the lead, traveling a distance, suddenly tilted his head and whistled, sound shocked the valley, foot turned a small mountain, the whole purple sky palace, immediately into the eyes.

When Zhang Songxi saw the crowd, he smiled and said, “No wonder the magpies are calling all the time today, I was still talking to my elder brother and second brother, I don’t know what kind of joyful event is coming, then I heard the oldest seven call out, I thought to myself, what kind of joyful event is it for this kid to come back? Who knows that it is the Emei Sect’s female warriors who have arrived, this is really a happy event from heaven!”
Song Yuanqiao was extremely courteous nature, bowed deeply to the crowd, smiled and said, “Emei Sisters and Sisters of the Emei Sect have come to visit, we did not go out of the mountain to welcome them, I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”
The Emei crowd returned the bow in unison, “Greetings, Great Warrior Song.”
Mo Qi grabbed the opportunity to say, “Let me introduce you all–” first looked at the Wudang warriors and scratched his head, “Since you all recognize my elder brother, there seems to be nothing to introduce.”
And to Song Yuanqiao said: “Big brother, this is the Emei faction of lay disciples in the eldest sister, Su Qingmeng Su warrior, the following is Li Caixia, Jin Mingjun, your sister-in-law Ji Shorong, Wei Jin Yi four warrior, this kid is especially notable, a few years ago, with the extermination of robbing the master of the Central State to break out of the boss fame, it is the Emei golden boy Ye Kuhong, there is the Emei faction of the worship, the Divine Physician Hu Da Niu, in addition to your birthday congratulations, specially for you to celebrate the birthday of the Emei faction. In addition to congratulate you on your birthday, specially to take a look at my third brother’s injuries, and then this one, is a righteous man Tang Gong, known as the ‘six idiots swordsman’, is a good friend of our new friends!”

As for the previous things, years apart, my master’s state of mind, I’m afraid I have long forgotten clean. If you don’t mention it, you won’t be able to remember it either.”
Song Yuanqiao face grateful, nodded again and again, and to Hu Daniu salute, Zhang Songxi smiled on the side and said, “Big brother, we and Emei faction is like a family, and so on the old six to marry, it is really a family, there is a family does not talk about two families, if you are so polite endless, everyone does not know how to be good.”
Song Yuanqiao slapped his head and laughed, “I’m confused, how can I stand here and wait for guests? Sisters and brothers, as well as Officiant Hu and friend Tang, please come in, please come in!”
The crowd followed him up the steps, along the way met many three or four generations of Wudang disciples, all respectfully greeted, Zhang Songxi repeatedly urged, let them boil water, tea, fruit snacks to entertain the crowd.
But Su Qingmeng said, “Senior brothers don’t be busy, drink tea and not in a hurry, we first came to your school, when we first go to pay respects to Zhang Zhenren, only in line with the etiquette.”
Song Yuanqiao said: “Sister do not know, the master over the years, half of the day of the year are in seclusion, this year after the New Year, seclusion has been a few months, so far has not come out.”
Su Qingmeng said: “Even so, we also should be outside the door to worship some, in order to peace of mind.”
Yu Lianzhou said, “Eldest brother, this is the intention of people to honor master, so lead them there.”
Song Yuanqiao nodded and said, “Alright, then let’s go together.”
Then lead the crowd to go, around the true martial arts hall, along a winding path has been forward, walked to the back of a bamboo forest deep, but see the bamboo drops green, green grass like Yin, in the center of an open ground, repair a small courtyard, which only has two or three bamboo houses, in addition to the occasional birdsong, silent exception.
Since entering this bamboo forest, all the footsteps, breathing are subconsciously light, and to the door, Song Yuanqiao whispered: “This is the home of the teacher retreat retreat.”
Su Qingmeng also whispered: “Do not disturb zhang zhenren, we will kneel here.”
Saying so, she led the Emei crowd to kneel down and salute, and when Tang Gong saw this, he also followed suit and knelt down.
The crowd kowtowed and just got up, when they suddenly heard a human voice coming from the bamboo house, saying, “Huh, is this little friend a senior disciple of the Emei sect? Young age, the internal force actually have this kind of fire, really rare, hey, just too much of everything is not enough, you are looking for refinement, only one step away from going off the rails, they can know it?”
Words fall, two bamboo door whoop hole open, a tall old Taoist, white beard and white hair, wearing a dry and unclean Taoist robes, swing out, eyes with a smile swept through the crowd, and finally stayed in the body of Ye Guhong, beckoned: “Good boy, you come over.”
