Chapter 776: Sailing Against the Current

Chapter 776: Sailing Against the Current

In the quiet jungle, a young man wearing a fur jacket and carrying a bundle of dry firewood walked inside.

He didn't walk very fast, but every time he lifted his feet and landed, he stepped on the snow and marched forward, which looked extremely weird.

The snow in the forest was enough to touch the young man's waist, but he was like an elf in the snow, and he stepped on the snow without falling into it.

"Huh!"

The boy walked for a short time, and when he looked up and swept his surroundings, he suddenly found a black shadow lying on it in the snow.

Sou! Sou! Sou!

The young man walked briskly and came to the shadow, only to find a man lying on the ground.

"Yikes! It's actually a Taoist friend...... To save or not to save? ……”

"Master said that no one who cultivates the Tao cares...... So, I'll go! ”

As he spoke, the young man turned silently with a hint of hesitation on his face.

However, the young man stopped after taking three or two steps, turned his head and looked at the unconscious person lying on the ground, sighed and said quietly: "But the master also said that saving people is waiting for people to accumulate merit for themselves, which is a virtuous thing......

"Forget it! Never mind! I'll save your life! ”

"Maybe it's fate!"

As he spoke, the boy threw the firewood on the ground and easily lifted the man on the snow.

Then the young man walked briskly, as if he were running, and ran deeper into the jungle.

Where he ran, there was not a single trace, not even a single footprint.

The boy is like a light tanuki, walking through the jungle, dodging and moving extremely fast, and it is already a realm where not a single leaf touches his body.

After a short time, the young man carried Xu Shu through the mountains and forests and came to a small lake under a waterfall.

The waterfall has frozen over, and it looks quite shocking from a distance, and the cascading sharp icicles are even more terrifying.

The small lake under the waterfall did not freeze, but was steaming, and there was some grass on the ground around it.

Next to it is a small bamboo tooth building, the walls of the small building are hung with animal skins, and there is a young man who looks to be about seventeen or eighteen years old, who is lazily lying on the rocking chair with his eyes closed.

"Master, I saved someone!"

The young man came to the door of the small building, looked at another young man who was about the same age as him, and said respectfully.

"Yuxin, do you hesitate to save people?"

The young man in the rocking chair still didn't open his eyes, and looked at the jade heart that was carrying Xu Shu in front of the stairs and asked.

Yuxin struggled to say it in his heart, and Zuihou asked tentatively: "Dare to ask Master, is what the disciple did right or wrong?" ”

"That's right! …… Ay! Yuxin, how many times has Master told you, the judgment of good and evil is all in your heart, and everything you do and speak is also all up to you to change on the spot, you must not take Master's words as a dogma, in this case, that trace of spirituality in your heart will not be dusted! ”

The boy in the rocking chair opened his eyes, got up and walked towards the house.

Yu's mind pondered for a moment, felt that what the master said was reasonable, and felt that what the master said was a bit one-sided, Zuihou also showed a smile on his face, and walked into the small building with Xu Shu on his back.

Not long after, there was a clanging sound in the building, as well as a burst of laughter and scolding from Yuxin and Master.

The unconscious Xu Shu seemed to have had a dream, he dreamed that he had fallen into a bottomless abyss, the cold and ownerless invaded his heart, and the true qi in his body was gradually disappearing.

At this time, a flame suddenly ignited in his heart, guiding him in the direction, and he continued to grope in the darkness until he finally found an exit.

"Where is this?"

A dim light appeared in front of him, Xu Shu slowly opened his eyes, looked at the two young men who were looking at him curiously and asked.

"Yuxin, this ancestor is a little tired, you get him some food, and after two hours, let him go to the attic to find me!"

With that, a teenager got up and left.

Yuxin nodded and did not answer, then looked at Xu Shu curiously, and asked with a smile: "This fellow Daoist, this is where Master and I live, I saved you while chopping wood, you are hungry now, hurry up and eat something!" ”

As he spoke, Yuxin helped Xu Shu up and handed Xu Shu a bowl of hot broth.

Xu Shu was silent for a while, silently observing the surroundings, he found that the room was extremely clean, on a wall in front of him, there were rolls of silk, and some stone books, jade pages and bamboo slips and tortoise shells were placed on a large shelf.

At the entrance of the hot soup, the heat made Xu Shu gradually get rid of the void, his eyes showed a strange look, he looked at the bowl of soup, and then at the jade heart, Gu Dong Gu Dong didn't like the soup was hot, and drank all the soup in one go.

"Dare to ask this gentleman, this is where Taihang Ancestor lives?"

After Xu Shu finished drinking, he looked at Yu Xin and said curiously.

Yuxin nodded lightly, took the empty bowl, looked at Xu Shu and said, "Exactly!" You should first dissolve the aura in the soup, and if you have anything to say to the master, you are talking to his old man! …… By the way, my name is Jade Heart! ”

Xu Shu looked at Yuxin who walked into the kitchen on the side, slightly surprised, but sat up peacefully, but he couldn't calm down no matter what, so he had to silently run the method and open his eyes to observe the surroundings.

The masters of the world are mysterious and unpredictable, especially the Taihang Ancestor, who is even more powerful, and the ability of the other party is not something that Xu Shu can guess, so Xu Shu didn't say much, just followed Yuxin's words, sat on the blanket, and waited quietly.

……

In the palace of Changshan Wang.

Dian Wei spent a different kind of New Year here, and every day under the leadership of Xu Huang, he went to the city to wander.

Today is the seventh day of his arrival in Changshan, and the envoy group located in Liu Biao in Jiangnan has also come here, and there is even an envoy sent by Zhang Jiao.

The three envoys gathered in the palace, and everyone was an old acquaintance.

"Lord Wang, I heard that your life is short, I don't know about this, is it true?"

Everyone in the hall sat down in turn, and the envoy under Liu Biao was Yu Xuan, who was the civilian official of Liu Biao's army when the coalition army was discussing a major event.

Dian Wei next to him frowned after hearing this, and was about to speak, but saw Zhang Yan on the side also smiled, got up and looked at Chu He and asked: "Zhang also has such an idea, don't be a confusing plan made by the prince!" Want to ask us for some New Year's gifts! ”

"Presumptuous!"

Xu Huang, who was beside Chu He, frowned, stared at each other, and said in a deep voice.

Yu Tuo and Zhang Yan's words are simply a big rebellion, even if they are envoys, it is impossible to be so unscrupulous and full of nonsense, this is the rhythm that pushes their respective shili in a hostile direction.

Chu He was still looking down lightly, and the imperial aura on his body was uncertain, so that everyone could feel a coercion.

"Gongming, don't be rude!"

While speaking, Chu He had already stood up, staggered a few steps, slowly stepped off the throne, looked at the people in front of him and smiled: "My name of Chu He, who in the world does not know?" Are you questioning my reputation? Or do you want to go to war against me on behalf of Liu Biao and Zhang Jiao? ”
