Half fairy

Chapter 1

Volume [-]: "Title of the Golden List"

Jiupo Village, a mountain village, is surrounded by mountains and has beautiful scenery.

Legend has it that a great general was buried in the depths of this mountain. The general was buried without his head, and his valiant department made a head out of gold and assembled a whole body for him. The burial place is a place called "" Nine Mountains and Thirteen Slopes".

The vast mountains do not know how many ridges there are, and there are countless slopes, and future generations can't figure out which position "Nine Mountains and Thirteen Slopes" refers to.

On the mountain road behind the village, Ash Heng carried a bamboo basket and a book basket on his back. He was dressed in white washed clothes that could hardly conceal his clear and bookish air. He was tall, handsome, and fair-skinned, just like a scholar should have.

He is regarded as the most promising scholar in the entire Jiupo Village, and he is also a candidate in the current township examination. This trip is to go to Beijing to take the examination.

Before leaving, he had to go to the mountain first.

Deep in the back mountain of Wuliu Road from Jiupo Village, there is a Taoist temple whose incense has long since faded, called Linglong Temple.

He is going to find the master of Linglongguan.

The mountain road was rugged and difficult to navigate. Ash Heng stopped and walked, looking at the vast mountains and seas, his face was red and white, he was panting and sweating to rest, but the basket on his body refused to leave.

Just because there is an important item hidden in the back basket, an important thing that the world can't imagine.

When his father passed it on to him before his death, he had secretly told him that this thing was no trivial matter, saying that it was related to immortals!
When he arrived at Linglong Temple, which was covered with greenery, it was already noon, and Ash Heng was still climbing the steps under the outer slope of the Taoist Temple when he heard a "bang, bang, bang" fight.

what's the situation?He hurriedly climbed up to see what happened.

The first thing that catches the eye is a distinctive black iron tower in the Taoist temple, and then there is the Linglong Temple where the remains of the white flag are still there.

The old master of Linglongguan passed away three months ago. The Taoist temple seems to have lost its backbone. After the disciples mourned, the white things were left behind for several months and no one was able to remove them. No one took care of the grass growing on the walls and roof tiles. , the signs before the Taoist temple was broken and disbanded were obvious.

On the ground outside the Taoist temple gate, Ash Heng's eyes widened a bit, and he saw three Taoists with bruised noses and swollen faces on the ground struggling, and a young Taoist with ponytails stepping on a Taoist, who was facing the Daoist brother under his feet forcibly searched his body, found the money and stuffed it into his arms.

There is a couplet at the gate of the Taoist temple where the moss is everywhere:
The world is prosperous without me.

The years in the mountains are unparalleled.

The two 'no' characters in the couplet describe the gains and losses of practitioners. Compared with the scene of the robbery at the entrance of the Taoist temple, Ash Heng was speechless.

The young Taoist in front of him was named Yu Qing, who was the new master of Linglong Guan, and he was also young. The two were about the same age.

He refused the escort from the villagers and came to Yu Qing specially because he secretly made an appointment with Yu Qing, and this time Yu Qing wanted to escort him all the way to Beijing without telling the others.Relatively speaking, Yu Qing is a martial artist, and his escort ability is not comparable to that of the villagers. In this troubled world, he can be a little safer.

Who knew that the appointment time had passed, and after waiting for half a morning, Yu Qing did not come down the mountain to meet. Did that fellow forget such an important thing?I don't know what's going on, so I had to find it in person, and now I finally understand that Linglongguan is in trouble, and they are fighting each other in the same sect!
He was also familiar with the three Daoists who were knocked to the ground. They were all Yu Qing's own brothers. The oldest was in his fifties and the youngest was in his forties.

There are only four disciples left of Lao Guanzhu.

How could Yu Qing be able to beat his three senior brothers alone?

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Ashheng couldn't believe it. Based on his relationship with Yu Qing, he didn't know that Yu Qing had such strength before.

I didn't understand why the old Guanzhu passed the position of Guanzhu to Yu Qing. No matter his age or qualifications, Yu Qing is not qualified, and he is not mature and serious. Now he seems to understand something, the old Guanzhu chose one. Can the most capable disciple inherit the mantle?
When the money was in hand, Yu Qing tilted his head and saw that Ash Heng was coming. The fierce expression on his face disappeared, and he had a cracked white tooth. He was still quite heroic. There is a bit of wildness in the room.

The tender beard on his mouth is a bit dazzling, and everyone who knows him knows that he didn't have a beard before.

He moved his feet away from his seniors, Yu Qing walked to the steps under the Taoist temple, picked up the package, put on his sword, and put one hand on his shoulder, ignoring the pain of the three seniors, strode past, and dragged him up Astonished, Ash Heng dragged him away.

The eldest senior brother slowed down, half got up and roared at the departing figure, "Yu Qing! You openly robbed your fellow senior brother's money for your own selfish desires, and you are not worthy of being the head of Linglong Guan or Linglong Guan. Disciple, the little uncle will never forgive you when he comes back!" There was endless grief and anger in his tone, and there were bloodstains on his trembling beard.

Lao Guanzhu also has a younger brother, who is a disciple of Lao Guanzhu's uncle. Several brothers and sisters in Yuqing call him little uncle. He travels abroad for a long time and rarely comes back.

There are only five Taoists in the Linglong Temple today. It is true that the incense is dying, and there is no way to do it. It is a profession that wants to become extinct. It is a miracle that there is still a Taoist temple here.

Ash Heng, who was dragged down the mountain, heard the roar behind him, and asked Xiao Xiao beside him, "Are you really robbing the money from the same family?"

Yu Qing snorted coldly, "Don't listen to their nonsense. Linglong Guan is too poor, and I want to re-plan the property in the Guan... They don't accept me as the spectator, so it's not that you don't know. As the spectator, I ordered, Ask them to hand over the money, if they don't listen, and they make trouble with me, then I have to bow first and then fight."

Is this any different from grabbing?Ash Heng was a little startled. He knew that this guy was greedy for money, but he didn't think this guy could rob someone from the same family. When he saw the scene of searching for money, he thought there was another reason.

This is a bit bottomless!Ash Heng glanced at the beard on his mouth and sneered, "Your little uncle beat you up a lot when you were young, right? It's no use pretending to be mature with a beard, he's more shameless than you, don't think you're watching him I don't dare to take care of you. You're just jumping around indiscriminately, and when he comes back, you'll have to be skinned!"

Yu Qing seemed to be calm, and he snorted disdainfully. When he looked back and saw that he was a scholar who was working hard, he reached out and picked up the basket on his back, stuffed his own package into it, and helped Ash Heng carry the things on his back. .

The two bypassed Jiupo Village before going down the mountain. When they went down to the only road out of the mountain in the village, Yu Qing's Taoist attire had been changed to casual clothes to avoid being too conspicuous.

It's not a market day, no other people can be seen on the mountain road, and the mountains are quiet and windy.

About to reach the intersection of the mountain, when approaching the official road, the sound of horse hooves suddenly broke the silence.

A horse-drawn carriage came slowly, and the two of them both stopped and leaned to the side of the road to give way.

The carriage did not pass by, but stopped in front of the two of them. The driver behaved differently, and Yu Qing immediately became wary.

The coachman dressed as an ordinary person took off his hat to reveal his true face. He looked like a man with great bearing. He was nearly fifty years old, with long eyebrows and a square face. He jumped out of the car and surrendered to Ash Heng.

Ash Heng was obviously a little surprised, "Why did Mr. Pu come here?"

know?Yu Qing looked left and right.

Mr. Pu saw Yu Qing beside him, but he didn't know him, so he stopped talking.

Ash Heng: "My own person, don't worry. Is there something wrong with Mr. Pu coming?"

Mr. Pu pondered; "Come here to stop the son from going to Beijing, please suspend the test for this year, and it will not be too late to take the test next time."

what's the situation?Yu Qing's eyes flickered, looking from both sides.

Ash Heng frowned, "Why?"

Mr. Pu looked around, and put the hat back on his head again, covering half of his face, which could hardly hide his solemn expression, "Young master lives in seclusion and studies hard in a mountain village, and he has never heard anything about the outside world. Master, something has happened, and there are six prefectures in the southwest of Jin Kingdom. All of a sudden, there are evil spirits running around and acting strangely. I don’t know why they frequently target candidates who come to Beijing. Candidates have been killed in other counties.

Ash Heng frowned, "How could there be such an unreasonable and strange thing?"

Mr. Pu pondered: "I don't know what's going on, but the above asked to block the news. But there are rumors inside that the matter seems to be related to the Sinan House, and it seems that something happened to the Sinan House. I think it is true, the Sinan House. Has the influence to shut up the government."

Sinan House?Both Ash Heng and Yu Qing were trembling in their hearts, and both knew that it was an extraordinary existence.

It is rumored that there were some immortals living in this world in the early years, but they all disappeared for unknown reasons.It is said that the cave dwelling where the immortals live is still there, and there are still people who have entered the cave by mistake.For some people, there is no shortage of glory and wealth, but longevity. Nothing is as good as the elixir that can prolong life. Especially for emperors, the temptation is so great.

In order to find Xianjiadongfu, in order to eliminate the interference within the court, the emperor specially formed a special force to look for, which is the "Sinanfu".

Not to mention the gathering of talented people in the Sinan House, the more important thing is to seek longevity for the emperor. Although it is independent of the court, its power is growing. It is not an exaggeration to say that the power is monstrous.

Speaking of this Sinan mansion, Yu Qing couldn't help but look at Ash Heng's reaction. This young father and Sinan mansion should have had a deep friendship.

It was also three months ago that his master passed the throne on his deathbed and told him some secrets, and then he learned that Ashheng's father Ajiezhang, the disabled old man in the village who had been in a wheelchair for a long time and had passed away, had another identity. .

There were six departments of the imperial court, one of which was the Ministry of Industry, and the other was under four divisions. The Ministry of Yu was headed by Ajiezhang, whose father was the Langzhong of the Ministry of Yu.

Being in charge of the Ministry of Yu is no trivial matter, and his influence goes beyond the official rank.

Looking for the ruins of the immortal family inevitably requires frequent trips to the deep mountains and old forests, and when it comes to attacking mountains, no one in the entire court is better at it than the Yu Department.When the imperial court was building something for civil engineering or the Ministry of Engineering, the required materials such as wood and stone were always prepared by the Ministry of Yu.

Having dealt with mountains and forests for a long time, he naturally became proficient in the art of attacking mountains over time.

Cooperating with the Sinan mansion to find the remains of the immortal family naturally became the responsibility of the Yu department.

An important participant in the emperor's heart, and he was close to the powerful Sinan mansion. One can imagine what kind of person Ajiezhang was in those days.

And Linglongguan also received the great favor of Ajiezhang during that period, so they had the later friendship between the two sides.
