But it shows that Xiang and his party followed the woodcutter to the depths of the mountain forest. After walking for about half a cup of tea, they saw the mist, but the woodcutter walked straight forward without saying a word. Ming Xiang couldn't help but feel excited in his heart. , but couldn't tell him directly, so he had to secretly ask Li Dakui to inquire.
Li Dakui was also on tenterhooks, so he happily stepped forward and patted the woodcutter's pole: "Hey, big brother, I've been walking with you for most of the day. I don't know how far away your home is. .”
The woodcutter smiled naively and said: "It's not far, not far. Just turn the corner in front of you and you'll be there."
After everyone heard the words, they didn't say much, so they had no choice but to follow them. Sure enough, after turning a big bend, they saw an open area in the mountains. A row of two-story bamboo houses stood in front of them. On the left side of the bamboo houses were jagged There are strange rocks on the right side, and there is a sound of flowing water flowing down through the rocks. There is a small bamboo forest behind the house. Although the bamboos are shorter and thinner than the bamboos at the bottom of the mountain, they have their own toughness, like spears and halberds in the forest.
The woodcutter led everyone into the hall, and when they arrived at the backyard, they saw that there was even more heaven and earth inside.
Under a tall Chinese chrysanthemum tree, an old man was facing the direction of the visitors, lying on a wicker chair and basking in the sun. Look at the old man, dressed in a gray cloth cannon, with white beard and hair. Although he sleeps with his eyes closed, he still makes people feel unblasphemous.
After the woodcutter introduced everyone, he stood there and whispered respectfully: "This is my husband. Please take a rest while I go to see some tea."
The old man opened his eyes, looked at the person who came, smiled slightly and said: "Master Ming, Master Li, all knights, since you are here, please take a seat." He said, but the man did not move, his eyes Still squinting.
Everyone was shocked when they heard this and saw this man being so mysterious. They didn't dare to be careless, let alone sit down.
Ming Xiang cupped his hands and said: "Tian Xia Hui Ming Xiang came to the door rashly and disturbed the Qing Xiu. I hope you will forgive me, but I don't know how the senior knew our names."
The old man waved his hand and motioned for everyone to sit down.
Although Ming Xiang felt that this man was quite trustworthy, but seeing his celestial demeanor, he might be a veteran of the martial arts world. He thought it was not too late to be polite first and then fight, so he picked up a chair and sat down in frustration, and everyone looked for a place. sit down.
The old man opened his eyes slightly, glanced at everyone, then closed his eyes again and said: "Zong Master Xia is a dragon and a phoenix among men. He came to my Duoyun Mountain to hunt for treasures. He is really brilliant.
Ming Xiang cupped his hands and said, "I don't dare. I don't know how the seniors, with their surnames and names, know about us." The old man said, "I'm an old man in the mountains, I don't care about you."
Ming Xiang saw that this man was not willing to be honest, and he was not expected to be a powerful person. He was just making a fuss, but he didn't want to get angry. He wanted to test it out, so he laughed and said, "Although the old man lives in the mountains and wilds, he still can't get angry." It is really not easy to think about the great things in the world, but it is just a small thing to hear, it is better to build a net to catch fish than to envy the fish in the Yuan."
The old man's eyelids moved slightly, but he didn't show any emotion. He just said: "I have been admiring fish for many years, but today I plan to become a fisherman. I just need to make a raft for my master. I wonder if you are interested?"
At this time, the woodcutter had arrived with a saucer of tea, and there was a young woman beside him, taking cups of tea from the saucer and handing them to everyone.
Mingzong Xia was young and vigorous. When he saw a beautiful woman, he couldn't help but take a closer look. After a closer look, he was surprised. How could this woman be so similar to Fang Lingyan? Could it be?
The woman happened to be bringing tea to Ming Zongxia. She looked at his dreamy eyes, but she didn't know what he meant. She just thought it was quite funny, but she didn't dare to laugh about it, so she had to lower her head. Who would have thought that this would fall into the eyes of Ming Zong Xia. He was used to being a promiscuous man, so he couldn't help but feel a little nervous. He stretched out his hands, then suddenly woke up and rubbed them on his knees in embarrassment. With. Fortunately, the woman just passed by in a hurry and brought tea to Li Dakui. For a moment, Ming Zongxia actually felt that what was floating in front of his eyes was the fragrance of tea or the woman's faint body fragrance.
Mingxiang didn't notice this, but thought carefully about the old man's words, which seemed to be asking for something from himself, and he felt a little disdainful. Since he was asking for something from himself, and yet he was so generous, this old man probably didn't know how high the sky was.
When the old man saw that Ming Xiang was silent, he suddenly opened his eyes, stood up, turned around and walked aside. There happened to be a pair of black and white pieces there. He picked up the white piece and sat down. He stretched out his hand to Mingxiang and said, "We are destined to meet together today. I want to have a hand-to-hand talk with the leader of the Ming sect. Is it okay with me?"
Ming Xiang wanted to go and sit down, but suddenly he remembered going up the mountain. He was afraid that Ming Mingming had already reached the top of the mountain, and he didn't know if Xu Hao had already gone up. He couldn't delay here at this time, so he stood up and clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, senior, for the tea. I I have to leave until I have something important to do."
The old man suddenly burst into laughter: "People say that Prince Xia has great strategies, but he didn't expect that he is also so short-sighted. So I have no choice but to invite Mr. Xu."
Hearing this, Ming Xiang was suddenly startled. The Mr. Xu he was talking about was naturally Xu Hao. However, how could this old guy invite Xu Hao at this time? I don’t know what kind of medicine he sells in his gourd. Let’s test it first.
Mingxiang stopped in his tracks, laughed, and turned around and said, "To be honest, your Majesty, we are all following orders from Commander Xu. If you can invite Commander Xu to come here, it will save us the trouble of searching everywhere."
While he was talking, he heard a voice saying: "Xu Hao is here."
Mingxiang looked back and saw Xu Hao slowly walking over. His expression looked a little more lonely. If you look closely, you will see a tall and thin old man with gray hair and beard following behind you, holding the black iron sword in his hand.
Xu Hao met Ming Xiang's group and just glanced at him. Without stopping too much, he went straight forward and said to the old man inside: "I've heard about Senior Yun Zhongxian's reputation for a long time. I don't want to see him today. It's really three people." I'm lucky to be born." Although his posture was respectful, his eyes were somewhat arrogant.
Ming Xiang was greatly surprised. Unexpectedly, the old man in front of him was Luo Yi, the legendary martial arts legend who had been missing for more than twenty years.
Everyone was shocked and couldn't help but froze in place.
Luo Yi lightly twirled his moustache and replied: "I have not been interested in world affairs for many years. I have no choice but to invite you two to come today. Please forgive me for any shortcomings."
Xu Hao and Ming Xiang both raised their hands solemnly and said, "I don't dare." After all, this is a martial arts legend they have all heard of.
He then heard Luo Yi say: "Junior brother, why are you still so impatient? Didn't I ask you to respectfully invite Mr. Xu to come? Why are you taking action again?"
When everyone heard this, they were even more shocked than before. They glanced at the old man holding the sword, and really didn't expect that he was the junior brother of Yunzhongxian Luo Yi. You must know that Luo Yi only had one junior brother in his life, and that was his archenemy, known as " Fu Qing, the "No. 2 in the world", just didn't know how the two senior brothers suddenly appeared after disappearing, and their relationship was so close.
Fu Qing said: "Hey, senior brother, please don't blame me. I was just too skilled for a while. I was secretly following that boy and found that he was agile and killed another boy in two or two strokes. He was really a martial arts prodigy, so I couldn't bear it. After trying it out for a few times, it turns out that he is really a good seedling. Alas, if I had found him a few years earlier, I would have taken him as my disciple." When Fu Qing talked about Xu Hao, he was full of praise.
After Mingxiang heard this, his heart sank. Could it be that Mingliang had been killed by Xu Hao?
But Luo Yi laughed and said: "Since the two protagonists have arrived, I will make a fool of myself and settle the matter."
Mingxiang didn't want to have an attack here, so he had to endure it first.
