('Listening to Li Liu talking about the Fifteen Gangs Alliance in the South along the way, the three of them walked slowly and unhurriedly. When the sky was getting dark, they happened to arrive in front of Qingji Mountain. [Read the full text]
"Li Liu, where is Mingjingguan?" Xiao Mufeng looked at the stone tablet of "Qingji Mountain" in front of him and asked Li Liu.
"This whole mountain is open to observation." Li Liu said as he got off his horse. Search for the latest updates at.br/> "It's the whole thing!" Chen Feifan also dismounted and looked up at the mountain. The reddish sunlight shone down, and the lush mountain forest was a scene full of vitality. Although this mountain is not as tall as Jingtian Mountain, it is much higher than Wuniu Mountain.
"Two eldest brothers, there are rules in the temple. You must dismount here before you can go up the mountain." Li Liu led the horse, turned to the two brothers behind him who were still looking around, and said, "Follow me."
Since there were such rules, Xiao Mufeng had to abide by them and quickly got off his horse.
The two of them followed Li Liu, each holding their horses, and walked slowly up the mountain. From here, there were two paths in front of them. One was along the stone steps, and the other was a slowly ascending earth slope. The three of them were walking on the latter earth slope. road.
Although they were a little curious, Chen Feifan and Xiao Mufeng did not ask why there were two roads up the mountain, but followed Li Liu all the way up in silence. Apart from anything else, choosing this road will allow the horses to go up the mountain. Based on this alone, the two brothers will choose this road without hesitation. The horses the two of them were riding were not only good horses, but also because they were gifts from others, so they did not want to just leave them at the foot of the mountain.
The three of them walked dozens of steps up the road, and then suddenly turned right along the road. They saw a three-story stone building not far in front of the three of them. There was a circle surrounding the stone building. A bamboo fence as tall as a person.
"Where is this?" Although Xiao Mufeng understood somewhat in his heart, he still couldn't help but ask.
"This is the place Ming Jing Guan specially prepared for travelers from far away." Li Liu replied.
When he got closer, Chen Feifan discovered that this was not a real stone building, but a mixture of earth and wood. It was not only this building that was surrounded by bamboo fences, but also the stables behind the building.
As soon as the three of them stepped into the bamboo fence, a little Taoist priest came out of a room on the ground floor and greeted the three of them with a smile: "Three guests who have come from afar, it's getting late, please rest inside."
"Thank you!" the three of them said, cupping their hands.
The little Taoist priest skillfully took the three people's horse ropes, led the three people's horses, and walked towards the stables behind the building.
As soon as the little Taoist priest left, a middle-aged Taoist priest, about forty years old, appeared behind him. He cupped his hands and said, "You three, are you passing by here, or are you here specially?"
"If you want to go up the mountain, please pay a visit to Taoist Master Kong Ping." Li Liu said.
The middle-aged Taoist priest looked at the three people in front of him and said, "Three young heroes, if there is nothing urgent, you might as well go up the mountain tomorrow morning. How about that?"
Seeing that the two people around him were silent, Chen Feifan knew that he still had to make the decision on this matter, so he nodded hurriedly and said: "That's fine, I'll let you do it, then."
"Young hero, you're welcome! Please come inside." After the middle-aged Taoist priest finished speaking, he led the three of them straight to the building.
Pushing the door open and entering, what you see is a hall with many tables and chairs. It is obviously a place for eating. It is no different from an inn, except that there is a counter and a shopkeeper behind the counter. There are wooden steps leading up to the left and right sides of the hall. Obviously the guest rooms should be on the upper two floors.
"Three young heroes, there have been a lot of visitors recently, so there are not many empty guest rooms. I wonder if I can accommodate the three of them in the same room?" the middle-aged Taoist priest asked.
"Two eldest brothers, the food and accommodation here are provided by the Taoist priest, no silver is needed." Li Liu felt that it was necessary to talk to the two of them about this.
The middle-aged Taoist priest nodded: "This place has been built for many years, and we never accept money."
The two brothers didn't care about this in the first place, not to mention that Mingjingguan provided free food and accommodation, so how could they have objections?
Seeing that none of the three people objected, the middle-aged Taoist priest suddenly shouted inside: "Hongxuan."
"Here, Uncle Master." A young Taoist priest, about twenty years old, came out from one side of the hall and came to the four of them respectfully.
"Take these three young heroes to the Muxia Room on the second floor." The middle-aged Taoist priest said.
"Yes. Three young heroes, please!" The young Taoist priest named Hongxuan waved his hand.
"Three young heroes, I still have some things to do, so I'm going to leave first. If anything happens, you can ask Hongxuan for help." The middle-aged Taoist priest said with cupped hands.
"Okay. Master Taoist, walk slowly!" The three of them said in the same manner.
Hongxuan took the three of them up to the second floor, stopped in front of one of the guest rooms, flipped a bunch of keys back and forth, took out one of them, stuffed it into the keyhole, and then turned the door. It opened.
"Three young heroes, please come inside!" Hongxuan stepped aside to make way for the three of them.
Li Liu went in first and seemed to be very familiar with it, lighting up the lights in the room. The whole room is not big, but not small either. It can accommodate three people. It has a large bed, a small bed, a wooden round table and five wooden stools between them.
After the three of them looked around, Hongxuan asked: "You three young heroes, what do you think of this room?"
"Okay, that's right. We'll stay here tonight with Taoist Lao Hongxuan." Chen Feifan nodded.
"You're welcome, young hero. I wonder if the three young heroes have had dinner?"
"No." Chen Feifan replied.
"Then please wait a moment for the three young heroes." Hongxuan handed the key to Chen Feifan and continued: "Sixuan will bring the food in a moment."
As soon as Hongxuan left, Li Liu closed the door, then walked to the other side of the room and opened the window. After a while, an eagle flew over. Li Liu stretched out his hand, and the eagle landed on his arm.
Only then did Chen Feifan and Xiao Mufeng remember that when they first met Li Liu and the others, they each had an eagle of their own; recently they had only seen Li Liu alone, and they had almost forgotten that they had such an eagle. The presence of an eagle.
"How?" Xiao Mufeng asked.
"It said that the young lady and the others were not seen in this area of Sanshui City." Li Liu replied. . ..
