Too Reckless - Vol 14 Chapter 8
“The snake gallbladder has been packaged by the fairy, and the fairy is not a mediocre person at first glance. If there is a pot of good-looking medicinal pills, and it is not convenient to sell it in person, you can come to a small shop…”
“No problem, let’s go.”
“Hey, walk slowly…”
…
In the Jiugong Mountain Market, an unremarkable old man walked out of the pharmacy with a box of medicinal herbs. After walking for a while on the bustling street, he turned into an alley, put the medicinal herbs in Linglong Pavilion, and rose to the southwest border. fly away.
Not far from Jiugong Mountain, the old man lowered his head and glanced at him—there were many people walking on the official road on the ground, among them a girl with a round face and a handsome young man.
Although he didn’t know each other, the old man felt that these two young people seemed to be covering up their Taoism, and they didn’t look like simple disciples of the sect.
But in a foreign country, the old man didn’t think about it, and he didn’t pay attention after flying over.
The old man’s name was Shen Changlin, and the people in Beishouzhou gave him the honorary title “Yan Wangchou”. His job was a doctor, and his reputation was not low.
However, the cultivation way is essentially respected by the strong. The status of the refiners and physicians only depends on whether they have anything to do with them. Those who can’t count on them will not take them seriously, and their reputation will naturally not spread. go outside.
This is like Shen Changlin’s unseen senior sister, who is the most respected lord in Dongzhou, no one dares to provoke, even the Valkyrie dares to contradict, but when she goes outside, she becomes a paper tiger, and even a small sect patriarch can’t stand it. live.
Shen Changlin came to Kui Bingzhou, naturally, not to buy snake gallbladder, refining ‘Longyang elixir’ to honor the master. .
Although Shen Changlin also felt that the master was single for a lifetime, which was not in line with the law of heaven and life, but as an apprentice, how dare he urge the master to marry, and he did not think that anyone could match the master.
In terms of generation, Shizun is a generation higher than the Valkyrie. In terms of age, everyone is a grandson. The human monks of the same age in the world are probably the bad old man Shang Yin; even if Shizun does not dislike Shang Yin, He looks awkward as an apprentice, so he might as well be single all the time.
When Shen Changlin came here, he happened to be passing by. He was invited by Chiwu Xingjun Xun Mingzhang to go for acupuncture, and stopped by Cangsha Ancient River to send a letter to his old friend.
Shen Changlin rode against the wind and flew southwestward for about 1,000 miles of mountains and waters, and gradually reached the periphery of the Cangsha Ancient River.
Cangsha Ancient River sounds mysterious, but the actual meaning is very straightforward. It is an ancient river channel with a lot of white sand.
The Cangsha Ancient River used to be very large, with several miles at the narrowest point. There were many old sites of large lakes along the line, and it extended to the estuary of the southern coast; but now it is difficult to see water in the river course, and when viewed from the sky, it is just a dry line. The river channel extends from the ground to the north and south.
Shen Changlin had just approached the Cangsha Ancient River when a cultivator rose up from the mountains to ride the wind and came to investigate. He took out Xiangyang City’s waist badge and entered it smoothly. Under the leadership of the cultivator, he came to a large lake in the middle of the ancient river. .
Although the river has long been dry, the big lake in the middle of the river has living water. The lake surface is surrounded by formations for dozens of miles. There are many aquatic animals and animals in the activity. Some people walk and take care of the lake. .
Shen Changlin landed by the lake, and soon came to a manor by the lake. When he entered the yard, he saw a naive tortoise lying on his back, nearly 20 feet long, like a hill; a few disciples were wiping with brushes. Earthy yellow turtle shells, and a person standing in front feeding fruit.
“Yo, I haven’t seen Brother Turtle for so many years, and I have learned to enjoy it.”
“hold head high……”
Shen Chang walked up to the tortoise, took out the snake gallbladder bought at the pharmacy, threw it into the tortoise’s mouth, touched his head, and then entered the main hall of the manor.
In the main hall, a woman wearing a woman’s bun heard the sound and walked out. She walked very fast. She raised her hand and salutes when she met:
“Fellow Daoist Shen came from a long way and never went out to greet him, please…”
“Oh, you’re welcome.”
Shen Changlin sat down beside the tea table, took out a letter from his sleeve, and handed it to the beautiful woman:
“It’s just a run along the way. I’ve known each other for so many years, but I can’t help you. I’ve only come to see you once in many years. It’s me who should say sorry.”
The woman took the letter, put it directly into her sleeve, and asked:
“Did Mei Xianjun also come here? I see that there are more faces in Qinglong Lake. There is a scholar named Hou Shuyu who came here once…”
“No one can say exactly what the teacher is doing.”
When Shen Changlin said this, he shook his head and sighed: “Some things, we know too much and we are in a hurry. It is better not to know. You should read the letter.”
Seeing this, the woman also sighed faintly.
The two chatted for a long time, and there was another noise outside the main hall. An eleven- or twelve-year-old girl jumped in and ran in, holding a turtle shell in her hand:
“Master, Brother Han found a tortoise shell outside, I haven’t seen it before, take a look~”
Shen Changlin glanced at the turtle shell, slightly surprised, and said with a smile:
“Just now in Jiugong Mountain, I also saw this turtle shell. A little girl was buying it, and she was haggling with the stall owner. She was so rude, I didn’t expect that I didn’t buy it in the end.”
“Yes?”
The woman took the tortoise shell and looked at it a few times, then nodded slightly: “The tortoise shell with heavy pupils is indeed rare… Have you asked the source?”
“Senior Brother Han forgot to ask…”
“Oh……”
————
It was getting dark.
Outside the Cangsha Ancient River, there are hundreds of miles of deserted mountains and ridges.
“Woo… woo…”
A team of monks, Yu Jian, flew through the jungle, and soon there was a dark whistle, which rose from the jungle, intercepted and checked, and the defense was extremely tight.
Zuo Lingquan stood under a pine tree, and when he saw this scene from a distance, he couldn’t help frowning secretly.
Xie Qiutao stood behind Zuo Lingquan, her face was a little dazed, but it was much better than in the market. She suppressed her emotions and just stared silently at the distant mountains.
Zuo Lingquan watched for a long time, and the group of monks he was following gradually disappeared into the barren mountains. He hesitated and turned back:
“The defense is too tight. I’m afraid the mountain is full of dark posts and alert formations, so it’s not easy to enter.”
Xie Qiutao nodded lightly without saying a word.
Zuo Lingquan sighed secretly, raised his hand and stroked the hair by Qiutao’s ear:
“Don’t be in such a hurry, being able to find the sign of Xuanwutai means that your parents are all right, this is a good thing…”
Xie Qiutao pursed his lips, and there was some water mist in his eyes, and whispered:
“certainly not.”
“Um?”
“My parents won’t be in the same boat as the demons, and they won’t pass on their family knowledge to the demons… That person just now must have used vicious tricks to steal my parents’ inheritance, or just pretend to be…”
Xie Qiutao’s voice was getting smaller and smaller. When it came to the end, she couldn’t help but was so upset that she was about to cry.
Zuo Lingquan shook his head, opened his arms, took Qiu Tao, who was only his shoulders high, into his arms, and stroked her back:
“Okay, as long as people are still there, there are infinite possibilities. It’s too early to draw conclusions. When Miss Qiu comes over, let’s discuss and find a way. If the crying nose is seen by Miss Qiu, it will be bad…”
“Um……”
At this moment, Xie Qiutao couldn’t blush either, so he raised his hand slightly, and finally put it down, resting his forehead on Zuo Lingquan’s chest, silently speaking.
Zuo Lingquan didn’t have any intention of taking advantage of him. He pressed his cheek against Qiu Tao’s hair and comforted him softly. After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Miss Qiu came over from behind.
Miss Qiu and Jing Xun kept a distance and followed behind. At this time, they were also extremely careful. They only showed their stature when they walked a few feet away from the two of them.
Tang Jingxuan only knew that Zuo Lingquan and Qiu Tao were following a group of people, but didn’t know the specific reason. Seeing the two hugging each other, he was a little surprised:
“Xiao Zuo, Qiu Tao she…”
“grumble?”
The dumpling flew to Zuo Lingquan’s arm, his head got into the gap between the two bodies, and looked up at Qiu Tao’s face.
Zuo Lingquan made a shush gesture, came to him, and recounted what he saw and guessed just now.
Miss Qiu knew Qiu Tao’s life experience, she frowned when she heard this, and turned her head to look at the mountains:
“It’s just a sign, it doesn’t explain much, let’s find a way to get in first.”
Zuo Lingquan was a little troubled: “The defense is too tight, and I don’t know how many warning formations are hidden in the mountain. Qiu Tao must not be able to find it all, and I don’t know much. Are you sure you can sneak in?”
Miss Qiu has learned the formation technique, but as a sword cultivator, she has also learned the fur, but she does not think that she can enter the forbidden area that is strictly guarded by aliens. She thought for a while, then turned to look at the dumplings.
Zuo Lingquan shook his head: “The dumplings pretend to be ordinary birds, and at best they won’t be suspected. If they swagger in and fly, there may still be an accident.”
Tang Jingxuan looked at the two frowning and couldn’t help. The first thing that came to her mind must be a good woman, and said:
“Would you like to ask your mother-in-law?”
Zuo Lingquan had absolutely no objection to this proposal and nodded.
Seeing this, Tang Jingxuan silently began to be stunned.
But after a while, a golden streamer appeared in Tang Jing’s eyes, and his breath began to change.
Xie Qiutao saw that the ancestor came directly, and quickly came out of Zuo Lingquan’s arms, touched his face, and tried his best to appear calm.
Miss Qiu also respectfully raised her hand and bowed:
“Senior Shangguan.”
After Shangguan Yutang came over, he nodded slightly to Miss Qiu, and then walked directly to the deep mountains and forests:
“This place is too tightly guarded, and you can’t touch it on your own. I’ll walk in front, and you will follow behind. If there is an accident, leave immediately, don’t worry about me.”
leave you alone? Zuo Lingquan secretly said: You are my daughter-in-law… No, this is my daughter-in-law’s body, how could I not care…
Zuo Lingquan hesitated for a while and followed:
“I’ll be with the seniors, and I can take care of you when things go wrong.”
Shangguan Yutang did not refuse, but paid careful attention to the clues in the mountains.
Seeing this, Miss Qiu didn’t say much, and watched the two go away until they reached a safe distance. After the ancestor slightly hooked his hand, he grabbed Qiu Tao’s wrist and followed silently…
——-
The moon is on the branches, and before you know it, it is already late at night.
Zuo Lingquan hides his breath, but is not far from the ancestor, and slowly touches between the mountains and fields.
Several people came to the Cangsha Ancient River to investigate what the Youying alien race was brewing. They couldn’t scare the snakes, so they couldn’t even pull out the dark whistle on the road, they could only go around, and the speed of advance was extremely slow.
Fortunately, Shangguan Yutang’s experience is amazing, all kinds of strong winds and waves have come over, and there are almost no formation agencies that can hide her from the past. sentence.
This kind of reconnaissance task has nothing to do with talent comprehension, and is purely based on past experience.
Although Zuo Lingquan knew that the ancestor was very powerful, he was still a little surprised when he saw her like walking in the back garden, and took the opportunity to ask:
“Senior, when you traveled in the past, you often did this kind of adventure alone?”
“Wealth and wealth are sought in danger. If there is no risk involved, is it possible that the opportunity will fall out of thin air?”
“Have seniors ever gone wrong?”
“…”
Shangguan Yutang has naturally gone wrong, and many.
Selling materials at the auction house in Nanyuzhou, I was deceived and almost caught by the loose cultivator and sold it.
Playing the tiger-skin banner in Huajunzhou, claiming to be the apprentice of ‘Shangguan Tianba’, he ended up laughing his opponent half-dead.
In Kui Bingzhou, he helped the Secular Jianzhuang to steal the sword that was stolen by the Xianjia, but he didn’t stop and draw the sword out of curiosity.
Wandering around in Beishouzhou, he accidentally wandered into the city of the demon clan, and was forced to disguise as a snake spirit and be a sister with a little female dragon.
In Yuyaozhou, he was not afraid of power, he just didn’t plant plum blossoms at the door, and even hit the person who was looking for trouble, but he was approached by Mei Jinshui, the person who was talking at the time…
Bits and pieces of the past, if we really break it down, I am afraid I can write several dangerous mortal cultivators.
But how could Shangguan Yutang tell others about these embarrassing things that ruined the image of the Valkyrie and even she couldn’t bear to look back.
“If something went wrong, how could the deity come to this day?” Shangguan Yutang’s expression was flat, and the strong man was full of air: “There is no such thing as a fool in cultivation, only foolproof.”
It’s not that Zuo Lingquan doesn’t believe this, but after thinking about it, he said: “If you want to be foolproof, you have to be prudent and cautious, but the way of doing things of the ancestors is to keep moving forward, advancing without retreating. This is reckless and steady… It feels a bit conflicting. ”
“There is advance but no retreat. It does not mean that there is a hole in front of you, you have to jump in, but you have to find a way to get over it no matter what, you can’t stop or even give up halfway. Reckless on the purpose, you have to kill whoever you want to kill; if you are stable in the process, If you can’t beat it head on, you can kill it, understand?”
“Daigo empowerment, suddenly enlightened…”
…
The two of them chatted all the way and proceeded cautiously. It took about two hours before they crossed the barren mountains and ridges of more than 100 miles and came to the edge of the ancient river.
After entering the interior, the level of defense has dropped significantly, and interpersonal relationships have begun to appear on the river.
Shangguan Yutang walked along the river, observed the excavation marks in the ancient river, and said:
“From the point of view of the digging place, the Youying Alien Race should be looking for the source of the spiritual veins of the Cangsha Ancient River; the Cangsha Ancient River gave birth to an Immortal Emperor, the source of the Five Elements must be the highest in the world, but I don’t know that the alien race is here. Sneaky, do you want to restore the river or take away the remaining source of the Five Elements.”
Zuo Lingquan looked at the ancient river channel full of river sand and wondered:
“This river has lost a drop of water, is it still dead?”
“The body of a river is a channel, not water. Now there is no river water, and there will be no rain if it rains. Tens of thousands of miles of rivers entering the sea must be completely destroyed, and the time must be calculated in ten million years. Do not use the eyes of life to look at the world Creation.”
After Shangguan Yutang explained two sentences, he walked along the river to the upstream source, trying to find the monk who was alone and try to extract valuable information.
However, the interior of the Cangsha Ancient River is too desolate, and the monks who are still in the river at night are all transporting things in groups, or teams of exploration and collection, and they may be noticed by rushing to arrest people, and they have never had a suitable target.
Zuo Lingquan followed him for hundreds of miles, until he reached a river bend and found a suitable target.
There is nothing in the river bay, and the river sand wrapped by the wind has accumulated on the side of the river bay, forming a sand slope, and the silver-white moonlight sprinkles on it like snowdrifts.
Above the sand **** is the stone wall on the river bank. There is a woman in a dark blue dress sitting on the edge of the stone cliff, holding a piece of paper in her hand to examine it carefully, and she is a little distracted.
And only two miles away from the woman is a large lake with bright lights along the coast, and the streamer of the formation can be seen on the lake.
Shangguan Yutang paused, frowned slightly, and looked at the great lake in the distance:
“There is one of the sources of the Five Elements. From the perspective of the formation structure, it belongs to water. This woman is not low on Taoism, and she must know the inside story.”
Zuo Lingquan took out the saber and held it in his hand, and asked:
“Go and tie her up?”
After Shangguan Yutang observed the surrounding situation, he walked forward:
“Be ruthless, make sure you hit it hard, and don’t make any noise.”
Zuo Lingquan nodded slightly, hiding his voice, and together with Yutang, he quietly touched the mountains and fields outside the river bay. After making sure that no one around was paying attention, he slowly approached the woman sitting by the river.
With Zuo Lingquan’s eyesight, he could see that this woman’s morality was not low, but she didn’t know what she was looking at. Not only was she unsuspecting, she was even a little distracted. As she got closer, she could even hear laughter and exclamations.
Based on these circumstances, Zuo Lingquan can roughly infer that this is a woman who secretly ran outside to read a love letter at night, and there must be no one around to watch, after all, no one would smirk while reading a love letter in front of outsiders.
Thinking of this, Zuo Lingquan didn’t hesitate any longer. After the two of them touched the distance of more than ten meters, they took advantage of the other’s chance to get distracted, and at the same time, they broke out and rushed behind the woman in an instant.
The woman’s reaction did not surprise Zuo Lingquan.
Maybe she was distracted, or she didn’t expect to be attacked from the shadows in the ancient Cangsha River. The woman just moved her ears and was captured by Shangguan Yutang with a tiger attack. Can make any countermeasures.
Shangguan Yutang’s technique of tying people is extremely sophisticated. When he got close, his fingers were already on the Fengfu acupoint, locking the other party’s blood flow. At the same time, he covered the woman’s mouth with his right hand, twisted the woman’s arm with his left hand, and pressed her down. lying on the ground.
Zuo Lingquan grabbed the woman’s right wrist, inserted the Xuanming Sword in front of the woman, and said solemnly:
“do not move!”
“Woooo…”
Zuo Lingquan originally thought that this woman would show panic or panic.
But what surprised him was that the woman who was restrained had shame and vigilance on her face.
Although I couldn’t understand what the other party was ‘wooing’, I could guess that he was saying “Bold, do you know who I am?”.
Obviously, the other party regarded him and Shangguan Yutang as alien monks who came to Jie Se in the middle of the night.
Shangguan Yutang pressed Wu Song on the back of the woman in a posture of fighting a tiger, and said coldly:
“Be honest, I’m a woman.”
Zuo Lingquan didn’t want to be treated as a thief either, he said coldly:
“This deity just asks something, you don’t want to suffer…suffering…”
Before Zuo Lingquan finished speaking, his expression suddenly stiffened.
In the woman’s right hand, she is holding a letter.
While Zuo Lingquan was talking, Yu Guang saw a small line of small words in the corner—Xiao Tao is safe, and now he has found a lover named Zuo Lingquan, a very good young man, but when he stabbed my father-in-law, he did not hesitate at all…
peach…
father in law……
…
Zuo Lingquan was a little stunned, feeling that the direction of things was beyond his superficial control!
Shangguan Yutang noticed that Zuo Lingquan’s breath fluctuated abnormally, and thought that there was a situation. He was cautious, and his hand was a little heavier, squeezing the woman’s brows and squeezing her chest.
However, before Shangguan Yutang noticed anything strange around him, he found that Zuo Lingquan’s eyes were horrified, he let go of his sword hilt and hugged her, pulled her away, and roared anxiously:
“Ehhh! Don’t don’t don’t…”
Zuo Lingquan’s way of hugging a woman is very old-fashioned.
Shangguan Yutang was caught off guard and was pinched in pain. She rarely showed shock in her eyes.
“Are you crazy?”
“No, no, it’s all a misunderstanding, my own…”
? ?
own people? !
Shangguan Yutang was taken aback.
The woman was also almost stunned, she couldn’t breathe because she was pressed for no reason, and she didn’t know the situation.
After Zuo Lingquan realized who this woman was reading the family books outside in the middle of the night, how dare he continue to kidnap tickets, and Qiu Tao will have nothing to do with him if he is rude.
Zuo Lingquan was in a hurry and hugged the ancestor, wanting her not to be too cruel, and at the same time said with Yan Yue:
“Aunt Xie, don’t get excited…”
When Shangguan Yutang heard ‘Aunt Xie’, he already realized who this woman might be.
But so what?
Who isn’t a mother-in-law yet?
Shangguan Yutang didn’t let go~www.mtlnovel.com~ Seeing Zuo Lingquan’s incoherent speech, he was a little frightened, and said solemnly:
“You let go, I’ll tell her.”
In fact, there is no need for the ancestor to explain himself, because the woman has already been honest.
The woman was tightly held down, and before she could figure out the situation, she saw a woman in white clothes not far away, holding a round-faced girl, also covering her mouth with her hands, and walking towards her.
The round-faced girl was very excited. She was tightly hugged and covered her mouth. She was still trembling. Her big eyes were full of water mist, and she stared straight at her. Even if she hadn’t seen her for many years, she could see everything in the girl’s eyes at a glance. Emotions……
