Sleeping Arhat

Chapter 31

"Under the cliff!" Zhang Wuji exclaimed, with disbelief on his face and hesitation and worry in his eyes.

"Yes, under the cliff, I have already prepared ropes, iron hooks and other objects." Wu Xian's face was firm. Although the Nine Yang Zhengjing is the most masculine and powerful exercise, it is only practiced at a high level. As a result, this trip to Jiuyang was also for the sake of Master Li. If Master Li only practiced the first and second levels of Zhongzheng and Peaceful Kungfu, his life would be safe for the next few years.

"At that time, you will guard me on the cliff, and I will go down to the abyss to explore." Wu Xian said with firm eyes, gritted his teeth, and put his life at risk.

"If it is under the cliff, let's not look for it. If we are not careful, we will be smashed to pieces." Zhang Wuji said hesitantly, it is too dangerous, but he hesitated for a long time, took a deep breath, and took a step forward: " Brother Xian, I don’t have a long life, let me go down the cliff, if I die, it will be over for a while, and I will not be tortured by the cold poison.”

"Haha, brother Wuji, I think you must have a long life, and you will have good luck in the future." Wu Xian knew Zhang Wuji's fate, and laughed.But he didn't say a word about Zhang Wuji's descent from the cliff.

Zhang Wuji's simple and honest face was a little blushing, he hesitated and said: "Brother Xian, don't laugh at me, I am content with my life."

Wu Xian patted Zhang Wuji's shoulder, and said seriously: "Brother Wuji, fate is up to you, don't give up."

Zhang Wuji was stunned for a moment, and then his heart cleared. He really gave up hope before, and even after sending away his sister who did not regret, he planned to find a corner at random and wait quietly for death. After listening to Wu Xian's words, he remembered their four generations of ancestors Sun Du never gave up on the mission, and hope was ignited in his heart.

Zhang Wuji thought blankly: If I just do nothing and die without making any efforts, my parents will be very disappointed with me when I get to the underworld.

Early the next morning, the two of them ate the dry food they had prepared before and prepared to descend the cliff. Zhang Wuji asked, "Which cliff should we start looking for?"

Wu Xian was taken aback, he had never thought about it before, Wu Xian glanced at Zhang Wuji, and said: "I have gained nothing in the past ten days, brother Wuji, you are new here, why don't you make a decision, brother Wuji."

"Me?" Zhang Wuji pointed at himself in surprise, and asked suspiciously.

Wu Xian nodded, and finally, the two decided to go down the cliff of the mountain in front of them to have a look first, so Wu Xian carried a huge big sack, which contained hemp rope, etc., while Zhang Wuji carried food and water sources, and the two headed towards the mountain. climb up.

When it was over, Wu Xian tied a hemp rope several feet long to a tree on the cliff, pulled it hard to make sure it was safe, then threw the other end of the rope down the abyss of the cliff, and with a snap, the rope hit the cliff heavily. On the cliff, one could still see the faint white mist permeating the abyss, but the bottom of the abyss could not be seen. For a moment, Wu Xian was also a little apprehensive.

"Damn it." Wu Xian yelled cursingly, and the fear in his heart was a little less. Then, Wu Xian tied a small rope around his waist, and tied a slipknot on the long hemp rope. With a dagger in his waist and a claw hook on his back, he said, "Brother Wuji, you're really looking at the rope on this tree, don't let anyone touch it."

Zhang Wuji nodded, his face full of worries and worries, he glanced at the bottomless cliff, and then at Wu Xian: "Brother Xian, let me do it, anyway, my life is worthless."

Wu Xian smiled happily and said: "What are you talking about? Everyone has only one life. In my opinion, no one's life is more noble than anyone else's." At the end of the day, I will definitely come back, don’t worry.”

Wu Xian smeared a handful of putty on both hands, held the hemp rope in his hand, and jumped up. In a short while, he disappeared from Wuji's eyes. At this time, Wu Xian, who was falling rapidly, felt the whistling wind in his ears. After blowing, there is only the sound of the wind filling the mind in the whole ear, and the stone wall on the cliff is like watching a movie, and the scene in front of the scene is hurriedly passed by.

Wu Xian rotated the red apricot step, adjusted his body posture, stepped on the stone wall with both feet, and held the long rope with both hands. Every time he jumped down, his hands would loosen the hemp rope. , Observe carefully nearby to see if there is a stone platform around, all the way to the end of the rope, Wu Xian has never seen a stone platform.

Wu Xian lowered his head and looked at the bottomless abyss, disappointed in his heart. He lamented the uncanny workmanship of nature. This precipitous abyss is beyond the reach of human beings. If it is not for those who have great opportunities and great luck, it may be difficult to get those nine. Yangshen has done it.

Wu Xian tied the end of the rope firmly to his hands, and then stepped on the cliff with both feet, swinging in the air to the other side of the cliff, with the purpose of running to the other side of the cliff.

After a while, people came to the opposite side of the cliff. Zhang Wuji saw the rope moving quickly. After a while, the rope was placed under the cliff and ran to the other side. He thought something happened, but then he saw the rope move Twitching in a regular rhythm, knowing that Wu Xian is coming back, I can't help but admire Wu Xian's courage and ability in my heart.

It is easy to go down the cliff and difficult to go up the cliff. Fortunately, the cliff is well-tamped and neat, and his legs can be firmly stepped on the rock wall. Wu Xian scanned the surrounding environment with his eyes as he climbed the mountain, until he finally reached the top of the cliff. , I have never seen a stone platform hanging above the cliff.

When he got about three feet below the top of the cliff, Wu Xian took a deep breath, stepped on the cliff in three steps and two steps, and jumped up quickly. When he reached the top of the cliff, Wu Xian stepped on a raised stone, and his body With a light leap, her body unexpectedly turned over and jumped two or three feet up the cliff, and landed steadily on the side.

Zhang Wuji was stunned by the side. Zhang Wuji has been with his parents and adoptive father since he was a child. He has seen and learned many superb martial arts since he was a child. He has also seen his father Zhang Cuishan perform Wudang Ladder Cloud Zong, jumping from one leap to the next. Although he was faintly unwilling to believe it in his heart, his father's lightness kung fu was indeed not as chic as Wu Xian's.

Wu Xian shook his head in disappointment, Zhang Wuji was also a little desperate, but after a while, the two adjusted their moods.This time, before we knew it, three to five hours had passed when we went down the cliff, and Wu Xian was physically and mentally exhausted, so the two decided to explore again after two days.

At nightfall, the two returned to the cave. Zhang Wuji stared blankly at the fire, and then said, "Brother Xian, if you still get nothing after twenty days, can you bring me a letter to my family when you go back to the Central Plains."

Wu Xian nodded, it was just a matter of convenience, it was nothing more than walking a few more days to deliver the letter to Wudang Mountain.

Seeing Wu Xian nodding his head in agreement, Zhang Wuji felt some comfort in his heart: Ever since Granny Jinhua broke into Butterfly Valley, I haven't shown up in the Central Plains, presumably Grand Master already thinks I'm dead.This letter is a last letter, I will write one to the grand master, one to the six senior uncles, and leave one to my adoptive father.
