Chapter 6 The Heart of Seeking Immortals
Looking for you in Guangui County? This thought just passed in his mind for a while, because it was too cold, Niu Youdao didn't think about it, and he didn't plan to find the other party, he was not interested in these officers and soldiers.
Watching him go away helplessly, and confirming that he was indeed gone, Niu Youdao with trembling teeth struggled to climb up the bamboo raft.
It’s okay if you don’t come out, but when the water comes out and the cold wind blows, it’s so sour, it’s even colder, you’re shivering all over, your teeth are rattling, you’re cold and hungry. He really wanted to jump back into the water, maybe it would be warmer, but he knew that it was no different from boiling a frog in warm water, and if he found something wrong, he probably would never be able to climb out of the water again.
I took out the fire pocket and wanted to warm it up, but found that the fire pocket was also soaked and couldn't be used.
Seeing the grilled fish that hadn’t been chewed on the bamboo raft, I quickly grabbed it, held my ten fingers in my hand and bit it shiveringly, trying to replenish energy. It seemed that my body’s heat had been exhausted. It was cold from the bones I feel like I'm going to freeze, and the surrounding area is obviously in the wilderness, and there is no sign of human habitation to call for help.
Later, it was found that it was not possible. The whole person's consciousness seemed to be a little numb, and he felt drowsy and drowsy.
He clearly knew that not being able to sleep was due to self-numbness, and once the body fell asleep in this state, it was impossible to wake up.
He cast his eyes on the river bank, wanting to go ashore, but his body was already frozen, and he couldn't help himself, and his consciousness gradually sank involuntarily.
At the moment when he was about to fall into a coma, he seemed to be leaning against a stove in a dream, his back felt hot, and he suddenly woke up again.
Chi Liu got up, stunned, and found that the wet cotton coat on his body was steaming.
The body is no longer cold, and a certain part of the back is even hotter, and the billowing heat is continuously directed to the limbs and bones, dispelling all the chills.
It used to be cold and stiff, but now it feels hot and dry.
I was just a little surprised about this, and then thought about it, the heat source on the back was the acupuncture point where Dong Guo Haoran had inserted the amulet into him. After thinking about it this way, I understood it, and at the same time felt it was incredible that Dong Guo Haoran's internal force control was actually like this magic? This even more aroused his desire to go to Shang Qingzong to see it. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is seeking immortality and asking questions.
The heat is uncomfortable, and he wants to adjust his breath to guide the heat flow, but his body doesn't have the capital, there is no basic movement foundation, there is no guiding true energy in the body, and he can't move the energy, relying on fantasy is useless.
Secondly, I don't know whether my body is suitable for cultivation. To use the words of practitioners, it is the root bone. Not everyone is suitable for Qi training. In fact, most people are not suitable. The reason for the problem is that each person’s physical condition is different. Qi training requires a higher distribution of body meridians. The meridians are like the internal branches of the human body. The main branches in the human body are similar, but the bypass branches may not be The same is like trees of the same type, but their shapes may not be the same.
Some people may not even have the same main branches of the meridians in the body, and there are even people whose heart grows on the other side of the chest cavity.
People with weak bones, that is, people with poor physical conditions are not unable to practice qi, but they can only practice some simple qigong, such as breathing techniques that can prolong life, and those advanced exercises that require more complicated conditions for qi circulation Gongfa cannot be cultivated.
In the end, it was really too hot, so Niu Youdao splashed cold water on his face again, and even unbuttoned his clothes to blow the cold wind. The ragged cotton jacket on his body was still steaming, and his skin was flushed.
While cleaning the arrow feathers on the bamboo raft, Niu Youdao noticed the nameplate that the female general shot at. It was small, dark red and round, with a soaring phoenix engraved on one side and the word 'male' engraved on the other.
"Xiaozhuan..." He stared at the font and muttered, his eyes were blank.
The font used by people here is actually Xiaozhuan? Based on his past experience in the industry, he is no stranger to Xiaozhuan fonts, and he can easily read them.
What puzzled him was that people in this world spoke Mandarin but used Xiaozhuan characters, which seemed a bit messy with the world he was familiar with. But thinking about it the other way around, looking at the world he came from from the perspective of this world, it might be The world he was familiar with was chaotic, and he didn't know the answer, so he was at a loss.
The bamboo raft has also entered the torrent of mountains and rivers, and the speed of the raft is so fast that it begins to bump up and down.
Niu Youdao, who came back to his senses, quickly took away a series of small fishing traps behind the bamboo raft. The journey was far away, and they might still come in handy later, so they couldn't be ruined on this complicated waterway. The penny is already in hand, propping left and right in the turbulent canyon river, opening his clothes to face the cold wind, fighting against the wind and waves in the splashing waves from time to time, his movements are skillful, he obviously has experience in this aspect of driving, he does not panic, and the scene is magnificent And thrilling.
After crossing the dangerous shoal, the current calmed down again. Niu Youdao was exhausted and paralyzed. He caught a dead fish on the bamboo raft and ate it raw. There was a bright moon over the mountains.
There is quite a sound of apes on both sides of the strait, the smell that the light boat has passed the Ten Thousand Mountains, the bamboo rafts flow out of the mountains, and the golden glow of the rising sun has come out of the horizon, and they have found a place to dock.
The heat on my body gradually dissipated, and the chill came back again. I found a suitable terrain, dug a nest with a hoe, picked up dry firewood and dragged dead trees, drilled wood to make fire, and lay on the hot kang fell asleep.
Woke up and set off again.
There is a bright sun in the cold wind, and there is a bright moon shining on the river in the sad night, accompanied by the sun and the moon.
Pennies are used for places where the water is turbulent, and simple wooden oars are used for paddles where the water seems calm and quiet.
After going through hardships, he also enjoys himself. His life experience is enough to cope with the cruelty of nature.
A few days later, the river seemed to be calm, but the flow was extremely fast. Niu Youdao knew at a glance that there must be a cliff similar to a waterfall in front of him. After a while, he heard the sound of a rumbling waterfall coming from a distance, guessing what Dongguo Haoran called The waterfall should be here.
Looking around, he could see a magnificent place with mountains and forests in the distance. Dong Guo Haoran's words were simple but very clear. It must be the so-called land of exquisite beauty. After landing on the shore, he tried his best to drag Dong Guo Haoran's body ashore, and then watched the bamboo raft quickly go down the river, raised its tail not far away, and dropped a pile of dry firewood and disappeared.
Pulled out the hatchet that was inserted obliquely on the back and tied the waist, cut some trees and rattan nearby, made a simple stretcher, put Dong Guo Haoran's body on it, and put the rattan rope cover On the shoulders, I lifted the stretcher and dragged it with my hands, shoulders and hands, and dragged all the way, moving forward with difficulty.
After being tortured deep in the mountains, and encountered a place with steep mountains, the stretcher couldn't be dragged anymore, so he threw it on the ground, and collapsed under a tree like a dead dog. He took off the bamboo tube around his waist and drank his saliva Suddenly he opened his voice and roared, "Is the person from Shang Qingzong here?"
He yelled a few times, but there was no reaction in the forest. He was about to take a rest, and then left Dongguo Haoran to search alone. Suddenly, he heard a chirping sound, something hit his face and caused pain, so he immediately picked up the hatchet Get up and look around.
laugh! There was another slap in the face, and when I looked up, I saw a young man in a gray shirt standing on the branch of a big tree at some point, with a long sword on his back, looking down at him coldly, and shouted: " Where is the wild boy shouting here?"
Niu Youdao's eyes lit up, and he asked joyfully, "Is it from the Shang Qingzong?"
The young man said: "How do you know about the Qing Dynasty, you wild boy?"
As soon as he heard it, he understood that he had found the right place, so he put the hatchet on his waist, and Niu Youdao quickly tore off the dirty curtain wrapped on the stretcher, revealing Dong Guo Haoran's face, pointing and saying: "Do you know him?" ? Dong Guo Haoran, let me come to you."
The young man glanced at it, his face paled in shock, he jumped down, quickly checked and confirmed, and then pulled out a loud arrow and pointed it at the sky, a ball of fireworks burst out, soaring into the sky with a whoosh, and exploded sparks in the air with a bang.
After a while, more than a dozen people came from the top of the nearby treetops one after another, and they all turned over and fell into the air. Niu Youdao blinked and blinked, secretly thinking that everyone was good at lightness.
The people who came all confirmed Dong Guo Haoran, and then someone shouted: "Quickly report to the sect!"
Immediately, someone ran into the forest and disappeared. The others stared at Niu Youdao one by one, and surrounded him eagerly, but no one asked him about his situation.
After waiting for too long, swish swish swish, people turned over and fell down one after another. In the end, Luo Yuangong, Su Po, and Tang Susu all came after hearing the news, Tang Yi and Wei Duo also rushed over, and there were dozens more people one after another.
After confirming Dong Guo Haoran's body one after another, they all looked at me and you with serious expressions.
When Niu Youdao was sizing up everyone's reactions, he took a second look at Tang Yi, and found that this girl stood out in the crowd, she was quite on point, and she looked like a fairy. But it's just a good appreciation, and he has no other thoughts now. He can see from the reactions of everyone that Dong Guo Haoran's status in the Shang Qingzong is indeed not low.
After crouching beside Dong Guo Haoran and checking his injuries, Luo Yuangong got up and looked at Niu Youdao, asking, "Little brother, did you bring him?"
Niu Youdao nodded: "Yes."
Luo Yuangong nodded: "I'm sorry, can you tell me the details?"
"I'm from Xiaomiao Village three hundred miles away. I hid in a small temple in the mountains because soldiers and bandits looted the village..." Niu Youdao explained the general situation. According to Haoran's instructions, he will not talk nonsense until he knows which one is Tang Mu.
It's just that when he mentioned that Dong Guo Haoran accepted him as an apprentice, the faces of many inner disciples present gradually changed. Tang Susu looked like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. His eyes flashed sharply, and he interrupted with a stern voice: "Dong Guo Haoran How could you casually accept a wild boy from a mountain village as an apprentice, it's just full of nonsense, I'll kill you!"
Not just talking about it, but actually chopping with a wave of the palm, the powerful palm force roared out, and the strong wind overflowed.
"Junior Sister!" Luo Yuangong and Su Po exclaimed, but they didn't have time to stop them. They didn't expect Tang Susu to make a sudden move, and the moment he made a move, it was a killer move.
Someone probably guessed Tang Susu's intentions, Tang Mu has gone, rumored to be located in Dongguo Haoran!
Niu Youdao was shocked, he was not blind, after all he was a practitioner, the power of this palm was really frightening, he couldn't breathe because he was already squeezed before the palm force reached, if he was really struck by a palm In the middle, I am afraid that I will die suddenly.
At such a close distance, with such a violent attack power, not to mention him now, even if he still has the strength he once had, he can't avoid it. He secretly cursed in his heart that this old woman has eighteen generations of ancestors. I didn't expect that I would actually come to the Qing Dynasty to die. Yes, thanks to myself, I took the initiative to bring Dong Guo Haoran's body to show my sincerity after going through hardships.
In fact, Dong Guo Haoran didn't ask him to bring the body. As long as he found Shang Qingzong, Shang Qingzong would naturally send someone to find the body afterward.
