Chapter 75 Chapter 74 Infatuated with traveling through the clouds to search for ancient caves

It is said that when Yu Yunzhong saw Yunfeng leave, all thoughts were lost, worry accumulated in his chest every day, and he didn't have the heart to eat and drink.Because Xinyuan adhered to the intention of Chasing Yunsou to stay in Cambodia, he not only perfunctory and refused to tell him, but instead told Xuanji and Tie Mao Taoist what Chasing Yunsou wanted.The Taoist Iron Man first saw that although Yunzhong was born in a rich and noble family, he didn't have a trace of dandyism, and he had a very solid foundation in his heart. Said, let it go.Yunzhong begged many times to no avail, and became more and more troubled.I thought to myself: "Which fairy is not made by a human being? All these sword gods say that they have no destiny with me. I don't know if the encounter at Qingluo Mountain that Master Yuqing said is true or not. Yunfeng now blames me for not being willing to make progress. If she learns swords and comes back, Seeing that I'm still doing as usual, wouldn't I be despised by her more and more, how can I be worthy of her? What should I do if I procrastinate for a long time? Chasing Yunsou is an extraordinary and holy sword fairy. He is near Mount Heng. His old man cares so much for his nephew and great-granddaughter. Don’t you have any sympathy for my nephew and great-grandson-in-law? The swordsmen don’t allow me to be a disciple, thinking that I was born in a rich family, I can’t let go, and I can’t bear the hardships of becoming a monk, so I shirk it. Why don’t I go back home Go, sell the family property, do all good deeds, and distribute it to the poor? Then go to Hengshan alone, to seek the shelter of Yunsou and his old man, at least learn swordsmanship well, and meet your beloved wife in the future." The idea is determined. , the more I think about it, the more reasonable it becomes.He also didn't inform his family, set up a pretext to go home, and immediately called the accountant and rent collector at home, entrusted him to sell all the family property, and shared several charitable deeds.Leave gold bars, letters and Ling Cao.With dozens of taels of silver, he abandoned his home and went into the mountains.Full of hope to learn swordsmanship, he went to look for Yunfeng, and went back to see his father-in-law together.If you can't realize your expectations, you will become a monk from the world and don't live in the world.

A few days earlier, I found out from Xinyuan and Xuanji the residence of Zhuiyun Sou Hengshan, and rushed to the foot of the mountain, suddenly there was a heavy fog on the mountain, and the road in the mountain was rough and difficult to walk.Yun was anxious in the center, and tried to climb up the mountain several times, taking risks.Unexpectedly, the clouds and mists of Hengyue Mountain have been closed all year round. When it is seldom clear, the fog is even thicker this time. Standing at the foot of the mountain and looking at it, I can only see a vast expanse of darkness. The shadows are all invisible, how can they go up?Unable to do so, Yunzhong decided to muster up his courage for the last time, brought dry food, used both hands and feet, and planned to crawl away a little bit.Hengyue was originally a famous mountain in central Hunan, and the sacred power in Sanxiang and Qize was originally prosperous, and many people went to the mountain every year.Only Zhuiyunsou's residence is located in a very dangerous place on Mount Heng. When the weather is good, there is always mist and mist, and there is no way to get through. He also heard that there are wild beasts and poisonous insects. People who go to the mountain never pass by. rare.Yunzhong lived in a poor farmer's house far away from the foot of the mountain. The man's surname was Wu, and he was very sincere. Seeing that Yunzhong was a son of a wealthy family, he went up to the mountain alone without an entourage, and he was not walking the right way into the mountain. I was very worried for him and persuaded him. Many times.Knowing his good intentions, Yun Zhong only politely refused.He himself knew that the mountain trails here were extremely dangerous and often covered by clouds, so Naiye made a wish in front of the gods, and he had to go up from this mountain.The farmer failed to dissuade him. Seeing that he insisted on taking the risk, he said: "It is often said that there are many beasts and poisonous insects on this mountain. The official wears a sword. He must be an acquaintance. But at present, the mountain is covered with clouds and mist. There is no mountain road in the first place. If you really have to go, I will cover the elbows, ankles, back of the head, etc. with thick cotton pockets for the officials, and then prepare a long rope lath. Just in case you stumble To roll down, you just need to protect your head with both hands, and roll down the slope, even if you are injured, you will not die; if you stumble and fall into the deep valley, as long as you don't die, you can try to climb up with the rope hook. But this is a desperate solution, it’s best not to take risks, it’s better to change the route to the mountains.” Yun Zhong was not willing to listen to his dissuasion, but urged him to prepare quickly.The farmer had no choice but to rely on him, and the husband and wife rushed him all the necessary tools and dry food overnight.The next day, according to the farmer's advice, Yunzhong put on a thick cotton pocket and went up the mountain.The old peasant couple sent them to the foot of the mountain and pointed out the way to go up. Seeing that Yun Zhong had traveled a long distance, he gradually disappeared into the mist and disappeared after a while. go home.

The farmer had never been to the top of the mountain before. He only went up the mountain to collect firewood when the clouds opened on weekdays, and picked the easy road. I can't go there a few times a year.Yun Zhong climbed up from the thick fog according to the path he instructed, but he couldn't make it through, and he slipped and fell several times after going up less than ten feet.On the one hand, he is young and vigorous, and on the other hand, he is eager to learn swordsmanship. He thinks that he is good at martial arts, and as long as he touches the edge with his hands and feet, it will not be difficult to climb up.At first, I heard the farmer shouting, urging him to come back, and I felt his kindness, so I agreed a few words first.After entering, I fell down a few times, and the fog was too heavy, so it was difficult for my voice to come out. I decided not to look back, so I just kept climbing up, and I didn't even agree.The farmer thought he couldn't hear him when he was too far away, so he walked away.Yunzhong couldn't hear the sound below, and knew that the peasants had left. Fortunately, he had a solid foundation in martial arts and eyesight. Although the mountain road was slippery and the fog was thick, he walked ten feet away, took a rest, and calmed down. I can't help but feel overjoyed, and work harder to move forward.Unexpectedly, the mountain is so cold that the thick fog condenses on the rocks and turns into water. In addition, this mountain is often deserted, and the rocks are rough and rough, which hinders the feet and hands.In March and April, the vegetation is thick and there are thorns everywhere. A pair of bare hands scratched on the wet rocky soil, and they were stunned by the cold, and they stabbed the thorns with one hand.Although the injuries were not serious, most of these thorny vines contained poisonous substances. After a while, they became swollen, painful and red, and I regretted not believing the words of the peasants.Because it was inconvenient to climb, I took off the cotton sleeves on my hands, and the cold felt better.It is less than one-tenth of the way, and there are still many dangers in the future, and the hands are swollen and painful, how can we walk up?I was so anxious that I almost cried.After barely pulling out the thorn in his hand, he walked more than three zhang away, and he couldn't go any further.Sit down feeling a relatively flat place, and in the dark carefully pull out the unfinished small thorns with your fingernails.At this moment, my hands were poisoned, not only did I not feel cold, but it became hot and scalding.When I looked up, the fog was so thick that I couldn't see anything; when I looked down, I could see my own body vaguely, not completely.The more I thought about it, the more sad I became, and I decided to go up as far as I could, and I would rather die than go back.Straighten up the whole body, take out the cotton gloves and put them on, and continue to climb up step by step.Later, the pain in both hands was unbearable, so I had no choice but to stand up and take a risky step forward with both feet.After walking up to about five or six feet high, he suddenly tried to put his foot on the rock wall and was shocked.Hastily used a pair of painful hands to feel around, there are rock walls everywhere, where is there any way to go?This urgency is no small matter.In this thick fog, I felt east and west, and after a while, not only was there no way to go, but like a frozen fly poking through the window paper, I couldn't even find the way back.Yunzhong was anxious and helpless, knelt down and shouted for help from his great-grandfather.In vain, he shouted so dryly that he said many pious prayers, but there was no reply at all.

When he was sad, he suddenly saw two blue lights flashing not far in front of him. He guessed that he was sincerely moved by Chasing Old Man, and came to welcome him with the light of his sword. As long as he followed the lights, he would be able to find his cave.Unable to be overjoyed in his heart, regardless of the pain in his hand, he crawled and fell towards the two blue lights.The blue light only flickered in place and did not move away, Yun Zhong thought that there must be a good encounter.When he got close to the front, the blue light still didn't go away, and he guessed what the treasure was first.When he got close, before he could touch it with his hands, he could already smell his breath, which was very rough.Yun Zhongxin was aggressive, and when he knew something was wrong, he touched it with his hand.As soon as I touched it, I felt that the thing was covered with long hair and smelled fishy. Knowing that I met an unknown monster in the dark, I was so frightened.The thing was also invisible in the fog, and lay there dozing, when Yun Zhong yelled loudly, woke up, smelled the smell of a stranger, and rushed forward following the sound.When Yun Zhong retreated, he wanted to draw his sword to protect himself, but he forgot to take off the cotton pouch on his hand in his busy schedule, and just as he was in a hurry, he was bumped head-on by that thing, hitting him squarely.Yunzhong couldn't stand still, fell headlong and rolled down.Knowing that her life was at stake, Qing suddenly remembered the peasant's instructions when she arrived, and hurriedly raised her wrists, hugged her head tightly, and protected her face. She also fisted her feet upwards, huddled into a ball, and rolled down.And I'm glad that this collision happened exactly where it came from when it went up the mountain, and it didn't fall into the abyss and the ravine, and it didn't lose its life.Yun Zhong rolled all the way, and from time to time he could hear the monster roaring like thunder.Rolling and frightened, it took a while to roll to the foot of the hillside, already tinnitus and dizzy, unable to move.After a while, I forced myself to sit up, and suddenly felt pain in my chest, back, and back. I remembered that I was hit hard by the monster on my chest, and I was hit by a stone twice when I rolled to the middle of the mountain.When I looked down, I saw a long hole in the clothes on the chest. There must have been something like horns on the monster's head, but it was lucky that it didn't penetrate into the flesh.Yun Zhongbai suffered a lot of hard work, almost lost his life, not only did not meet the old man chasing the cloud and fulfilled his wish, but also suffered several minor injuries all over his body, his hands were so painful that it was difficult to bend and stretch.It took a lot of trouble before he managed to take off a pair of tattered cotton gloves.There was a burst of sadness and pain, and with a "wow", he spat out a mouthful of blood, and immediately fainted and became unconscious.

When he woke up, his body was no longer at the original foot of the mountain, and there was a tall and handsome young man standing in front of him. Seeing Yun Zhong woke up, he smiled and said to him, "Have your wounds healed?" Yun Zhong remembered that he was injured just now. Thinking about being rescued here by this young man, I wanted to get out of bed and thank you for saving me.Suddenly, I felt that the pain in my body was gone, and the pain in my hands stopped and the swelling disappeared.Recalling the past, it was like having a nightmare.Looking at this room again, it turned out to be a cave, and I was lying on a stone bed.In addition to the alchemy furnace and medicine stove, there are several volumes of Daoist scriptures displayed in the cave.He guessed that although this young man didn't look like the cloud chasing old man that Huang, Zhao and others said, he must be a fairy.Hastily got out of bed and knelt down and said: "Disciple Yu Yunzhong is dedicated to Taoism. He has risked all kinds of deaths in the thick fog, and wants to climb up to the Zhulian Cave in Mount Heng, meet Wai Yue's great-grandfather Chasing Yunsou, and learn Taoism and practice swords. I don't want to suffer all kinds of hardships." He suffered so much, he was knocked down the mountain by a monster on the way, suffered internal injuries, vomited blood, and fainted to death. Immortal Duo Meng rescued him, and he will be grateful for the rest of his life. The disciple has abandoned his fate and is determined to find The teacher learns Taoism, and I hope that the begging immortal elder will bow down to his foolishness and take it back to his sect. Disciples should work hard to cultivate, and never dare to slack off in the slightest, in order to owe the immortal elder's kindness for saving his life and guiding him." The young man did not wait for the promise to finish, Pull him up.When Yun Zhong had finished speaking, he said to him: "I am not the one who saved you, so please don't thank me. Do you know what this place is?" Yun Zhong had no choice but to reply that he did not know.The man said: "This is the Zhulian Cave at the back peak of Mount Heng that you risked your life to come up to, but you are not allowed to live here at this time." Yun Zhong heard the words, both happy and anxious: the happy thing is that he never expected this As soon as he fell, he arrived at the fairy cave house that he had been looking forward to for so many days easily; what was anxious was that the young man said that he could not live here, even though he entered Baoshan, he still had to go back empty-handed.He hurriedly said to the man: "Since the elder said that this is the fairy mansion of the great-grandfather of my family, I don't know what to call it. Where is the great-grandfather of my family now? Can I allow my disciples to ask for advice piously?" The young man said: " My name is Yue Wen, and the great-grandfather of Ling Wai Yue is my teacher. When you were about to arrive in the cave just now, my teacher had already brought my junior brother Zhou Chun to move to the Suoyun Cave in Biefu, a real person with a wonderful and upright spirit in Mount Jiuhua. "Yunzhong heard that Yue Wen was a disciple of Chasing Yunsou, and of course he was also a brilliant swordsman, so he didn't ask whether the Chasing Yunsou he said was really not in the cave, and knelt down again, insisting on worshiping Yue Wen as his teacher. Otherwise, lead him to see Old Man Chasing Yun, and would rather die than leave this place.

Yue Wen pulled him up and laughed, "No wonder my master said you were difficult, it was true. Listen to me tell you, at this moment in your future, my master already knows your intentions, but he has no destiny with him. He will accept it himself. After I joined Junior Brother Zhou, I decided not to accept any more apprentices. That's why I sealed the mountain with thick fog, so that you retreated in spite of difficulties. I don't want you to climb up from the thick fog without fear of hardships, but you don't know this. You live in a cave on the back of Hengshan Mountain, hundreds of feet above the ground, and the woodcutter path is only a few dozen feet away from the foot of the mountain, and there is no way to get there. You are crawling in the dark, how can you get there? I have also said a few good words for you , but my master has a weird temperament, and hates people to ask for something. He said that if no one saves you for your desperate behavior, you are close to death. You are an only son and have not yet married a wife. Once you die, your family will become extinct. You also I'm not an idiot, I clearly thought that my master had a good friendship with you, and you had no serious crimes in your life, my master would not accept you no matter what, and I would never watch a person who is sincere to the Tao just to see him, and sit back and watch him die You don't save me. But you see that other sword immortals refuse to accept you, so you want to use this bitter trick to invite his old man to show mercy. You have good aptitude and heart, and you have a good relationship. Who knows, this will make his old man unhappy I insist on not caring about it. But you have to meet a strange fate. When you were accidentally knocked down the mountain by Xiaohou, the newborn little roar of the golden beast guarding the golden bird cave, and you fainted, I was just about to use the elixir Going to save you, my master saw your great-uncle Yue, the strange beggar Huaqiongshen Zhenren Ling walking towards you. He and my master have always avoided seeing each other. My master does not want to meet him , originally planned to move to Jiuhua. Seeing Master Ling appearing now, knowing that you will not die, he left this cave for me to practice and took my junior brother Zhou Chun to Jiuhua. After my master left, Master Ling hugged you When I came here, I wanted to quarrel with my master, and asked him why he refused to save me. I don’t know that my master is too lazy to meet him, and he has already walked away. Master Ling missed nothing. My master didn't rely on it, so he took two pills for you and saved you. Before leaving, the old man said to me, you grew up in a wealthy family. It’s not true to the Tao. This adventure to find a teacher is still motivated by lust. I didn’t want to accept you under the door, because I was angry with my master and ordered you to go to Qingluo Mountain first to steal the head of the six demons. , I can accept you as a disciple. Having said that, I think that since the death of the master monk Wei Fengniang, the Eight Demons of Qingluo Mountain have learned a lot of demonic arts from other schools of flying swords. Lihou is the Eight Demons One, Qingluo Mountain is home to many alien sects. It’s thousands of miles away, and you don’t know how to use swordsmanship. Is it just a dream to go into the tiger’s den alone and steal the heads of their leaders? But Master Ling’s temperament is stronger than my master’s. What's more special, since you are asked to go, there must be a way to arrange you. You can decide for yourself. As for my master, although he is very lenient to his disciples, I dare not ask me to accept you as a disciple. If you want to risk All the dangers are going to Qingluo Mountain, I think how much you are suffering, I will help you a little, and send you there, saving you a lot of trekking, which is good."

When Yun Zhong heard what Yue Wen said, he was deeply troubled in the first half, and felt ashamed.Later, I heard that the beggar Huaqiong God Ling Qing was willing to accept him as an apprentice. Ling Qing's ability and Taoism had been witnessed a few days ago.It's just that I have heard for a long time that the eight demons are powerful, and ordering myself to steal the head of the six demons Lihou alone is not easy.Can not help but happy and surprised.Suddenly I changed my mind: "This time I abandoned my home to find a teacher. I originally planned to die before returning; both Tong Yuanqi and Master Yuqing said that they met at Qingluo Mountain, and the words left by Master Ling seem to be even more true. How can I learn swordsmanship without going through a lot of hardships and hardships? I only got a camera from Qingluo Mountain to act, as if I had died tragically in the fog just now." Thinking of this, he lifted his spirits and added courage, and asked Yue Wen to take him with him. Go to Qingluo Mountain.Yue Wen said: "It's thousands of miles away to go to Qingluo Mountain, so you don't have to be busy for a while. There are many talented people there. I walked there two or three times, but I didn't go down. You can rest here for a day, and tomorrow morning , I will personally send you there, to Fanzuizi, who is more than 30 miles away from Qingluo Mountain, and I will come back. There are town shops and temples there, and you can ask the way to go." Yunzhong thanked him for agreeing, and went stayed in the cave overnight.

Waking up early the next day, Yue Wen gave him a few pills, took him flying in the air, walked for two days, and arrived at Fanzuizi on the third morning.This is a shortcut between Sichuan and Tibet, but there are not many people.Yue Wen and Yun Zhong landed in a secluded place, and Yun Zhong begged him for help several times.Yue Wen has been chasing Yunsou for many years, her actions and speech are quite similar to Yunsou's, she didn't agree to Yunzhong, and went back alone.Yunzhong had no choice but to go to the town store to find a place to live alone.When I arrived in the town, although I saw dozens of families, all of them closed their doors, it was very cold.Asked a few times, no one answered.Looking at a temple in the woods outside the town, he ran to take a look. The temple door was wide open, and outside the door there were several vicious and tall monks chatting there.Yun Zhong came forward to greet him, and said that he was a pilgrim who went to the Potala Palace to worship the Living Buddha, lost his way, caught a cold, and planned to stay in the temple for a few days before leaving.The group of monks looked Yun Zhong up and down for a while, exchanged a few dialects with each other, and called Yun Zhong into the temple.Yun Zhong saw that although their expressions were suspicious, one thing was over, and the other was that they were inexperienced, they had never been out of the house before, so they didn't know the seriousness of the stakes, so they rashly followed them in.As soon as he entered the door, he saw a lot of cow and horse manure piled up under the two corridors of the main hall.Several monks with dove-shaped faces and bare feet were drawing water from a well, and a tall monk stood beside him, threatening him with a long leather whip.Seeing Yunzhong coming in, they exchanged a few words in local language with the leading monk.Yunzhong also saw that the situation was not good, so he relied on his own ability and went inside to play by ear.Then he walked around the main hall and walked into a large courtyard, only to hear the Buddha's chant, which sounded like an owl.Looking forward, there are two monks sitting on the brocade pier on the steps: one is very tall and the other is short and fat, both of them are wearing yellow cassocks.Beside him stood a dozen or so monks with vicious looks.Seeing Yunzhong coming in, they all pretended not to pay attention.The monk who had led the way told Yun Zhong to kneel down.Yunzhong saw that those monks not only looked fierce, but also all wore sharp and dazzling sabers, so it is probably not a good place.When he was called to kneel down, he just pretended not to understand, bowed upwards and said, "The Great Monk invites you!" He wanted to continue, but the murderous monk standing beside him shouted, "I want to call you the Great Master!" Yun Zhongfang thought it was funny, that The short and fat monk stood up, pointed at Yun Zhong and said, "Where did you come from, you barbarian? How bold are you, you still don't kneel down when you see the first and second masters of this temple?" Yun Zhong heard him speak with a Sichuan accent , not as difficult to understand the local language, and answered with patience: "My surname is Yu. I made a wish to go to Tibet to go to the Living Buddha. I lost my way and felt unhappy. I want to stay in your temple for a day or two. Most Buddhist disciples are humble and compassionate. Why do you give The Lord wants to kneel down to you? You don’t have to bully me as a stranger from far away, I’m leaving.” After saying that, he threw himself up onto the temple wall.When he was about to jump down, he suddenly saw a courtyard outside the wall, and there were a hundred monks wrestling and wrestling there. He saw Yun Zhong standing on the wall, shouting in unison to catch Maozi.Seeing that there were so many of them, Yunzhong didn't dare to go down. He was about to turn around when he suddenly heard a strange laugh from behind his head, and just now the short, fat and fierce monk was standing behind him.When Yunzhong looked to the side again, there were dozens of fierce monks coming up from all around, each holding a saber and Zen staff, and they came up.Seeing that the situation was not good, Yunzhong tricked the short fierce monk standing in front of him to hold one side alone, and without a weapon, he jumped forward, raised his left hand, oolong poked its claws, and swung towards the fierce monk's face, and drew his sword with his right hand Meet the enemy.I saw the fierce monk muttering in his mouth and only retreating, his body was very flexible and light.Just as Yun Zhongjian was pulled out of its sheath, he suddenly felt dizzy, and he couldn't stand upright, and fell down from the wall.Seeing Yun Zhong fall down, the murderous monk hurried forward and tied Yun Zhong tightly.When Yunzhong regained consciousness, he was bound to the bright pillar of the Buddha Hall by all the fierce monks.Yunzhong cursed loudly, wishing for a quick death.Those fierce monks ignored him and tied him up for a whole day and night.I don't know what made the bundle of yellow ropes, it's okay if you don't struggle, but when you struggle, the rope will sink into the flesh, which is very painful.
