When the sword comes out of Emei, I will be the front

Chapter 90 In the Zhongnan Mountains, the masked evil monk

Ye Guhong and others left Wudang, walked up the Han River, and walked through the mountains. In eighty-nine days, they arrived at Shiquan County.

This county is the gateway to Hanzhong, bordering the Qinling Mountains in the north, Bashan Mountain in the south, and the Han River flowing in the middle. It is also called "two mountains sandwiching a river". Gui Guzi, a strange man during the Warring States Period, once gave lectures in Yunwu Mountain in this county.

The group of heroes stayed here for one night, and early the next morning, they turned north and entered the Qinling Mountains. The famous route they took was the Ziwu Valley that Wei Yan wanted to leave but could not reach.

It's just that the Ziwu Valley today is much easier to walk than in the days of Wei Yan, but back then Yang Guifei loved to eat lychees. Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty ordered people to build a road from Fuling to Chang'an, requiring people to be able to run horses, which included Ziwu Valley, so it is also called Lychee said.

Ziwu Valley is more than [-] miles long, and everyone slept in the open air. After walking for five days, they were not far from the exit.

At noon that day, I was walking to a mountain ridge, and the mountain wind was blowing. Everyone praised: "Good wind, good wind. It's not too late to take a rest here before walking on."

He stopped and looked around. He saw towering peaks and an extraordinary atmosphere. Ye Guhong felt his pride rising sharply, and couldn't help but blurt out: "What a big mountain!"

Zhang Songxi smiled and said: "Junior brother, this is Zhongnan Mountain. Once you get out of this mountain, go further north and you will reach Chang'an."

Ye Guhong asked in surprise: "Is this Zhongnan Mountain? Where is the ancestral home of the Quanzhen Sect?"

Zhang Songxi shook his head and sighed: "When the Quanzhen Sect was in its heyday, there were no less than ten thousand Taoist priests in the Chongyang Palace. Later, he lost to monks and lamas in debate, and his momentum was greatly reduced. He had offended many forces before, and when they saw that he was in danger, they all came To add insult to injury, there are disputes in our own family, and the masters in the sect have fled far away, either living in seclusion to practice Taoism, or establishing their own schools. Today, the Chongyang Palace has gone through many catastrophes, and its scale is not enough to be among the top eleven, and there are no decent masters stationed there."

Mo Qi sneered and said: "The reason why he is so powerful is because he was supported by Yuan Ting. It can be said that his background is not right. It is inevitable that there will be disasters in the future. I just regret that Zhenren Chongyang was full of ambition at the beginning, and the Niubi people have no one to inherit."

Zhang Songxi shouted: "Our master is a Taoist priest. Did you also say the word "niubi"?

A few people were chatting among themselves when suddenly the sound of hoofbeats came from the north. Yin Liu quickly pulled Ji Xiaorong aside and complained: "There are people galloping on such a winding mountain road. Everyone, please give way. Don't worry if he bumps into us."

Mo Qi said with a smile: "Maybe they are delivering lychees. I am afraid that the imperial concubine will wait for a long time, so how can I not run away?"

While he was talking, a horse puffed heavily and hit the ridge. The horse was driven by a woman in her twenties, and behind her sat a man in his thirties.

The woman turned around the mountain road and suddenly saw the crowd. She was startled and quickly reined in the horse. However, the horse was obviously very tired and the woman was not very good at riding. She pulled the reins randomly and the horse Herod With a scream, his front hooves softened and he fell to the ground.

Fortunately, both men and women knew martial arts on the horse. The two of them jumped quickly and landed on the ground. Regardless of the struggling horse, they looked at Ye Guhong and others in surprise. The man shouted: "Hey! You are the accomplices of the demon monk. What?"

Everyone saw that the man had a rough appearance, more than six feet tall, with broad shoulders and thick and long arms. However, his arms hung limply by his sides, as if he had no bones. There was a green bamboo stick stuck in the belt behind his back. , crystal clear and smooth, obviously extraordinary.

Although he yelled sternly, his eyes were a little panicked, and the woman next to him was even more nervous, holding the hilt of the sword at her waist tightly.

Zhang Songxi frowned and said, "Don't misunderstand us. We are guests going to Chang'an and we don't know any demonic monks."

After hearing this, the woman breathed a sigh of relief, but the man looked suspicious. He touched the woman with his shoulder and said, "Let's see if the horse can still run away."

The woman was about to go when Hu Daniu suddenly said: "Hey, your arms don't seem to be injured or sick, but they seem to have been caused by a misfire while practicing. I see that your eyes are dim, your lips are dry, and your neck is swollen. Is there something wrong with Hand Yangming’s large intestine?”

After hearing this, the visitor was startled at first, and then showed a look of surprise: "You can see the focus of my disease? Can you cure it?"

Hu Daniu frowned and said: "If you want to treat the symptoms, it's not difficult. I'll prick you with golden needles at Shangyang, Hegu, Quchi, Shousanli, your arms and shoulders, and you will be able to move your hands naturally. But I don't know how well you practice. Whatever the technique, once you practice it again, I'm afraid it will relapse."

The man was ecstatic and said quickly: "Don't be afraid of recurrence. Don't hide it from the doctor. There is a strong enemy chasing behind my husband and wife. This man is extremely skilled in martial arts. If I can move my arms, I can send him away!" He seemed to be worried that Hu Daniu would not agree. Help him, and emphasized specifically: "That man is extremely vicious and evil. He is afraid that others will know that he harmed me. If he sees you, he will definitely silence him. You all seem to be practicing disciples, but you are definitely not the demon monk's." opponent."

The Wudang heroes were looked down upon by him and laughed dumbly. Yu Lianzhou said lightly: "In this way, this strong man has good intentions. Mr. Hu, if it is convenient, please heal his arm."

The man was overjoyed and said quickly: "I am not an unknown person in the martial arts world. If you help me today, you will be rewarded generously."

Yu Lianzhou shook his head and said nothing, Zhang Songxi said with a smile: "It is our duty to help you without asking for rich rewards and to help people in need."

While he was speaking, Hu Daniu had already taken out the golden needle and burned it on the fire folding piece: "Your Excellency, stand firm and don't move even a little bit."

The man asked curiously: "Don't you need me to take off my clothes?" Before he finished speaking, Hu Daniu moved quickly, inserting several golden needles into the acupuncture points with extremely precise precision.

Seeing that he was very accurate in identifying the acupoints, the man applauded: "What a skill, what a skill. I didn't expect the doctor to have such extraordinary skills at such a young age."

Hu Daniu smiled slightly and slowly moved the golden needles one by one. The man's expression changed immediately and he couldn't help shouting: "Ah, it's sore, ah, it feels numb, it feels good, ah, it hurts, it hurts..." "Suddenly his eyes turned red.

The woman beside her had been paying close attention nervously. When she saw her husband crying, she quickly asked: "Brother Long, does it hurt a lot?"

The man immediately said in annoyance: "Silly woman, what are you talking about? People thought I was crying in pain! I haven't felt my arms for many days, but now they are getting better. I remembered that I was chased by the demon monk for a few days, and I will be able to do it right away." Revenge, hence the excitement.”

After about a stick of incense, Hu Daniu put away the golden needles one by one and said with a smile: "Can you try to see if your arms are still comfortable?"

The man moved carefully at first, then flexed and stretched, his face showed joy, he nodded repeatedly, slapped his hands twice, and laughed loudly: "Okay, okay."

The expressions of Ye Guhong and others changed slightly. Unexpectedly, this man's palm wind was so powerful.

At this moment, a sound of horse hooves came, and the man looked solemn and said: "You are all good people, but this person is a very vicious person. You all stand far away and don't be harmed by him. If you see that I am invincible, Then run to the mountains quickly, their target is me and they won’t chase you, wife, you also remember to run.”

When the woman heard this, she burst into tears and said, "I won't leave, Brother Long, we husband and wife will live and die together."

Before he finished speaking, nine horses came up the ridge. Seeing the man blocking the road, they all grabbed the reins. The nine horses stood up, kicked their front hooves, and stopped together.

Ye Guhong looked around and saw a monk in gray clothes sitting on a horse. He was completely bald and his face was covered with a black cloth. Only his eyebrows and eyes were exposed. The corners of his eyes were deeply wrinkled. He looked at least five years old. Teenage years old.

There are eight knights on horses behind, all of them are powerful, most of them are foreigners, and there are three lamas among them.

Ye Guhong blinked and recognized two of them, but they were old acquaintances——

It was Manager Ha of the Ruyang Palace who sent the warriors with his master and apprentice to Yanmen Pass to seize the treasure. I remember one was named Wulin Bofu and the other was a monk named Modo Siba!

These people glanced at Ye Guhong and others, and then at the horse that was sleeping on the ground. The leading monk suddenly smiled and said: "Master Shi Da, what's wrong with obeying us happily? Be a flower child." Boss, how can you be happier than being a high official and guarding a place? If you agree, you will go back with me to see the prince. Needless to say, you will be rich and glorious. Even your internal injuries will be properly healed for you."

When he said this, Ye Guhong couldn't help but look at that "Brother Long", and sure enough, his arms were still drooped as before.

　I ran out to have a meeting with a client this afternoon and came back late.
