In early spring, the sun is shining brightly.
In the mountain forest, there are many flowers and buds on the trees, waiting to bloom.
Qin Luo was wearing a white Taoist robe, with long hair disheveled, like an immortal. When he passed by the woods, the flowers on the trees bloomed one after another, and hundreds of flowers bloomed in the blink of an eye.
The little dumpling nestled on Qin Luo's shoulder. It was very excited at first and chirped non-stop. Now it sleeps soundly.
Qin Luo was going to Linjiang Town. He had never been on a boat and wanted to experience it.
Linjiang Town is located southwest of Luoxia Peak. Qin Luo is walking in the mountains and forests, and occasionally encounters people farming in the mountains. They will say hello and say a few words.
The main thing is to ask him where he comes from, where he is going, and what he is going to do.
Walking out of the mountains and forests, Qin Luo passed by a small village. There were many big dogs in the village. When they saw strangers, they started barking fiercely.
They are all local dogs who look after homes and courtyards.
Qin Luo ignored it.
Xiaotuanzi was awakened by the barking of a dog, and chirped at the top of his voice, "Try barking again!"
A group of local dogs were swayed by its momentum.
Qin Luo hit its head with his fingers.
"Boss, why did you hit me?"
"You realize it yourself!"
Xiaotuanzi tilted his head, he couldn't figure it out, "I can't understand it!"
After leaving the village, Qin Luo walked onto the country road. On the road, he could see chickens and ducks free-range, children playing in the mud on the road, children picking up snails on the edge of the fields, and brave children holding wooden sticks to dig out honeycombs.
"Aren't you afraid of being stung?"
Qin Luo asked.
Hearing the voice of the young Taoist priest, the child who was about to dig out the honeycomb was startled. He did not answer, but turned around and ran away in a panic.
Xiaotuanzi's hair stood on end, "It's a good thing I didn't dig out the bird's nest, otherwise it would make him look good!"
Qin Luo nodded.
Bad kids need education.
At noon, he saw a heavy evil spirit in the distant mountains. Qin Luo decided to go and have a look. The village at the foot of the mountain was unusually quiet. Qin Luo found an old man plowing in the fields.
"Old man, what is this place?"
The old man in the field raised his head. He looked at Qin Luo's dress and said respectfully: "Master Tao, this is Niujiao Mountain, Huangyan Village."
"I see that the village is very deserted. Are there any evil spirits causing trouble recently?"
The old man sighed, "Master Tao, there is a wolf god on Niujiao Mountain. He often eats children, causing many people to move away, leaving only us helpless old people."
"I'll go take a look at the mountains."
"Master Taoist, you have to be careful. The wolf god is very powerful. An old Taoist priest we invited a few years ago was eaten by the wolf god."
"I'll pay attention."
Qin Luo walked towards Niujiao Mountain.
There was a dilapidated mountain temple on the mountain. There were bones everywhere around it. Qin Luo frowned. Some of the bones were children's at first glance, "Evil!"
The wolf demon in the temple senses danger.
Boom!
A thunderbolt fell on the mountain temple.
The mountain temple was razed to the ground, the wolf god was crushed into powder, and the old man farming at the foot of the mountain was so frightened that his legs trembled when he heard the noise in the mountain.
Not long after, Qin Luo returned to the foot of the mountain, "Old man, the wolf monster has been eliminated. I have set up a magic circle on the mountain. No monster will come near here in the future."
"Thank you, Master Dao!"
The old man wanted to kneel down and worship, but was held up by an invisible force.
evening.
The sun sets.
Qin Luo walked on the "Blade" mountain. The whole mountain was shaped like a long blade. The top of the mountain was very narrow. The narrowest place could only accommodate one foot, but he felt like walking on flat ground.
The mountains are undulating, and the mountains are layer upon layer.
Qin Luo looked around and saw that the Luoshui River was winding and winding, like a slender swimming dragon, all the way to the horizon.
In front is Linjiang Town, with blue bricks and black tiles, like an ink painting.
Linjiang Town is very lively, with businessmen, knights, wanderers, etc. coming and going.
Qin Luo came to the town. He was so refined and refined, with a red tit standing on his shoulder, but the people around him rarely noticed his presence.
After passing through Linjiang Town, Qin Luo came to the ferry.
There were many vendors outside the ferry, and people gathered around to watch the excitement. Xiaotuanzi liked the excitement, so he fluttered his wings and flew over. Qin Luo came over when he had nothing to do.
A middle-aged man in black was performing a knife dance. He danced with beautiful knife flowers with one hand, and his movements were graceful. He threw up the rotating long knife and kicked it on the handle. The long knife soared high in the air. It was spinning in the air, and exclamations came one after another.
When the long knife fell, the middle-aged man in black turned around and kicked it out, causing the long knife to fly higher.
"good!"
The people watching applauded.
The middle-aged man in black caught the falling long knife, swung the knife for a while, and finally sheathed the knife. His movements were smooth and graceful, which attracted a burst of cheers. Even Qin Luo applauded him.
"Masters, if you are rich, please give me money! I, Wu Shashen, would like to thank you all in advance!" The middle-aged man in black saluted with his fists clasped.
Wu Shashen held the straw hat, and the onlookers quickly dispersed. Only a few people took out one or two copper coins and gave them to him, and some people threw the coins directly on the ground.
When Wu Shashen bent down to pick up the coins, Qin Luo took out two coins and put them in his straw hat.
"Thank you, Master Dao!"
Wu Shashen bowed and thanked him.
There were three hideous claw marks on his forehead.
Qin Luo said with a smile: "Brother Wu, I think you are superb in martial arts, why are you wandering?"
Wu Shashen stood up and said loudly: "I don't like a routine life, I like to wander around."
"Chewmi!"
Xiaotuanzi nodded accordingly.
Wu Shashen looked at Xiaotuanzi and liked it very much, "Master Tao, the birds you raise look very spiritual. A few years ago, I met an expert, and the birds he raised can also talk."
"Just a little naughty."
Qin Luo chuckled.
Xiaotuanzi tilted his head.
Wu Shashen turned around to pack his luggage. Qin Luo came to the riverside. As soon as he got close, many boatmen gathered around him. "Master Dao, where are you going? Our boat will leave soon."
"I'm going to Gangneung County."
Hearing that Qin Luo was going to Jiangling County, many boatmen left, most of them in small boats, and it was difficult to travel that far.
A fat woman had a smile on her face and said, "We are going to Huainan City in Jiuyang County, which is very close to Jiangling County. For only five taels of silver, Master Dao can take a boat from Huainan City to Jiangling County."
"Five taels of silver is a bit expensive."
Qin Luo took a boat for the first time. He didn't know the price, but he felt that the price was a bit expensive. After all, it was only five taels of silver.
"Master Tao, it's really not expensive. Look at our big ship, the sleeping rooms, and three free meals a day. It's really a good deal." The fat woman pointed to the big ship not far away.
A scrawny old man said, "Master Tao, it only costs two hundred coins to get to Huainan City."
The fat woman glared at the old man and said enthusiastically: "Master Tao, our big boat is comfortable to live in, and his small broken boat doesn't even have a sleeping place. There are young girls on our boat."
Qin Luo looked at the thin white-haired old man, "I only have one hundred coins on me."
The white-haired old man gritted his teeth and nodded, "One hundred coins is fine, but you have to wait for someone."
"good."
Qin Luo smiled and nodded.
I heard that the young Taoist priest had no money.
The fat woman sneered and left.
Qin Luo followed the thin old man to the old wooden boat. The boat was very similar to a awning boat. It had sails and oars, and there was not much space in the awning.
"Old man, what do you call me?"
"My name is Yao Qingshan."
Qin Luo took out two hundred coins and handed it to him, "Mr. Yao, this is for your shipping fee."
Yao Qingshan was a little surprised, "Master Dao, don't you only have one hundred coins?"
Qin Luo smiled slightly and said softly: "I'm worried that they will be unhappy if you steal their business."
"Thank you, Master Dao!"
"There's no other way, it's just for life!"
Yao Qingshan felt a little emotional. He untied the rope tied to the shore and prepared to set sail. Wu Shashen ran over with a sword and a spear on his back, "Shipman, are you going to Huainan City?"
"Come up!"
Yao Qingshan nodded.
Wu Shashen jumped on the wooden boat that had just left the shore and laughed loudly, "Boatman, how much does it cost to go to Huainan City? If it is too expensive, I will swim back!"
"No need to pay, the Taoist priest in the boat gave it to me."
"Thank you."
Wu Shashen cupped his fists and thanked him. He bent down and sat in the canopy of the boat. When he saw Qin Luo, his eyes lit up, "Master Tao, it turns out you gave me the money. I don't know what to call it?"
"Dragon and Tiger Temple, Qin Luo!"
"Changshan County, Wu Killing God!"
Yao Qingshan stood at the stern of the boat and swung the oar. He felt that he did not exert much force and the boat ran far away. He felt that he was lucky today. Not only did he get big business, but even God rewarded him. "We are lucky. If the wind goes smoothly, we will be there in two or three days." Can reach Huainan City."
Qin Luo frowned slightly. He had to run for such a long time in smooth sailing, and the running time must have been longer. Yao Qingshan only needed two hundred coins, and all he earned was hard-earned money.
Wu Shashen sat opposite Qin Luo and wiped his long knife. He grinned and said, "This knife is called Demon Killer. How about it? Doesn't it look good?"
"It looks good. I have a sword called Zhanxie."
"Where is Master Dao's sword?"
Wu Shashen didn't see Qin Luo's sword.
Qin Luo took out Zhanxie from his waist.
When Wu Sha Shen saw the finger-long peach wood sword, he couldn't help laughing, "Can your wooden sword kill evil?"
"able."
Qin Luo put away the peach wood sword.
After Wu Shashen wiped the sword, he continued to clean the sword, "This sword was originally called Zhuxian, but because I wanted to avoid the princess's name, it is now called Wushuang."
Qin Luo could see that he had deep feelings for swords.
After maintaining the sword, he continued to clean the gun and said to himself: "This gun is called the God of Slaughter, and it was passed down from my ancestors. It's a pity that I didn't learn the marksmanship passed down from my ancestors."
Qin Luo saw three ferocious claw marks on his head, "Brother Wu, where did you get the injury on your head?"
Speaking of this, Wu Shashen clenched his spear and said enthusiastically: "When I was young, I heard that there was a tiger demon committing crimes in the mountains. I followed my master and a group of heroes to the mountains to hunt the tiger demon, and was scratched by the tiger demon."
"Have you killed the tiger demon?"
"No, that tiger demon is very powerful and invulnerable. We suffered heavy casualties."
"How did Brother Wu survive?"
"The tiger demon left after eating enough."
"Chirp, chirp, chirp."
Xiaotuanzi was already sleepy, but he couldn't help laughing when he heard Wu Shashen talking about the past.
Qin Luo didn't smile.
Some admire their courage.
…
Good night bro!
