Chapter 767: Encountering Old Acquaintances in a Foreign Country
Su Peng and Yang Xi watched the old man sitting on the ground and crying like a child, and the two of them didn't know what to say, so they could only watch him quietly here.
Fortunately, the old man didn't cry for long, and after a short time, he had already controlled his emotions.
I saw him stand up, forced a smile on his own, and said to Su Peng: "I'm sorry, when people are old, they are easy to be sentimental, and let you laugh." ”
"Don't get in the way, uncle, you haven't said it yet, why did you end up here from Jiangning County?"
Su Peng looked at the old man and said to him with great curiosity.
When the old man heard this, he couldn't help sighing, and said to Su Peng: "It's all because I didn't know the depth of the road when I was young, so I wanted to break through, and I was ashamed to set up my ambition to go to all places in the world, but the result was ...... But it's in this place, and it's been a lifetime......"
As he spoke, the old man's eyes became dazed, as if he was recalling something, and he said, "That was more than forty years ago......
Su Peng and Yang Xi listened to the old man's story, and generally understood his story.
This old man, whose ancestral home is Jiangning County, Suzhou, is a resident of Jiangning County.
This old man, when he was a teenager, his family had some savings, and he was also very restless, when he was a teenager, because his family was rich, so he had the money to hire some fist and foot masters, and he also learned a martial arts, although he was not a top master in the rivers and lakes, but at least a dozen ordinary people could not enter.
This person has no other hobbies, just walk the world, after he became a small kung fu kung fu, in order to walk the world, he joined a dart game in Jiangning County, specializing in following the dart board to run the waterway dart on the river.
In this way, he has also been to many places, and the farthest places have also been to Chaozhou, Tengzhou and other places, where he has also seen sea ships. I listened to those seafarers talk about the various things they saw in the South Seas countries when they went to sea.
Because he heard too much, his heart was a little wild, and he was no longer satisfied with walking the river, so he took a dart, and after arriving in Tengzhou, he withdrew from the dart game, and then used the previous relationship of the dart game to find a position as a guard on a sea ship in Tengzhou, and went to sea to walk the world.
On the sea, he is like a fish in water. This sea trade allowed him to see a lot of countries in the South Seas, and he also saw a lot of strange customs, and his mind became more wild, wanting to see a wider world.
And when he was in the Ryukyu Kingdom of Nanyang, he encountered an opportunity, in Nanyang, there was a high roller who went to Nanyang from the Shenzhou Continent to make a fortune, and he gave three thousand taels of gold. He bought the ship and recruited sailors, saying that he was going to go on an expedition, and the old man was hot-headed. He joined the ship as a supervisor and wanted to explore with the high roller.
What happened next was similar to Su Peng and Yang Xi. The high roller was also a Jianghu man who had obtained the sea map of the Holy Mountain, and his purpose was to go to the Holy Mountain to find the temple. Like Yang Xi, he took the fragrant corpse wood out to sea, but he encountered a sea monster at the location on the chart, and the sea ship was destroyed, and in the end, a group of people were swallowed by the sea monster like the biological submarine and brought these people to this giant island.
The old man met the local aborigines on this huge island, and he speculated that this was the rumored holy mountain in the rivers and lakes.
On the stone pillar peak of the holy mountain, it is said that the temple is located, but unfortunately, the stone pillar peak is not something that anyone can go up to.
At the entrance below the Stone Pillar Peak, there is a mysterious old man, that old man is the guardian of the Stone Pillar Peak, whether you want to leave the giant island or want to climb the Stone Pillar Peak, you need to go through the test of that guardian.
It's a pity that the old village chief that Su Peng and Yang Xi see now doesn't have the strength to pass the test of the guardian at all, and if he doesn't pass the test, there is no way to leave from this huge island, so this old village chief has wasted time and can't return, and finally his mind is light, and he has no idea of going home, so he took root on the giant island, lived in the indigenous village here, got married and had children.
However, after all, this old village chief is a native of Shenzhou, not to mention anything else, he is well-informed, in this village, he has played a great role, improved the production technology in the village, and used various methods to improve the living standards of the people in the village, and gradually increased his prestige, and finally, after the death of the previous village chief, he took over as the village chief of this village, until today, he met Su Peng and Yang Xi.
When the old village chief said this, his tone was full of embarrassment, and he said to Su Peng and Yang Xi: "Two, I originally thought that in my life, I would never see my hometown again, but I didn't expect that you would fall from the sky, I suffered some internal injuries in my early years, and my days are short, and it is a matter of my heart to be able to see my hometown people at this time." ”
When Su Peng heard this, he was a little speechless, although the old village chief suffered pitiful, he didn't seem to be much better, especially the old village chief said that he had been here for more than 40 years, and he couldn't go to the temple, and he couldn't go home, so would he and Yang Xi be the same?
Yang Xi felt the same way in her heart, she glanced at Su Peng, and said in her heart, could it be that she wanted to spend her life here with this person?
"Ahem, uncle, I understand your feelings, but I still have something to ask you, is this really the legendary holy mountain? Also, how can we meet the old man who guards the sacred mountain, and we can't climb the holy mountain without going through his trials? ”
Su Peng asked the old village chief.
Hearing this, the old village chief nodded and said, "This is a holy mountain, it is true, if it is not a holy mountain, there are not so many rare treasures here...... It's a pity, but it's not something that mortals like us can get. ”
"As for the guardian who guards the holy mountain, but he must pass his test, if you don't pass his test, you can't climb the holy mountain at all, there is something strange in Shizhu Mountain, it's a bit like the immortal formation I heard about before, if you don't get the guardian's approval, you can't climb there at all, and the guardian has magic protection, you can't hurt him at all, you can only complete the test he gave you to successfully climb the mountain."
"I just didn't pass his test, so I had to stay here...... The test of the guardian is very difficult, and if you are not a real strongman, you are afraid that you will not be able to pass. ”
When the old village chief said this, he suddenly remembered something and said, "When you came, you all saw the sea monster, right?" The sea monster is called 'Lua', which means 'holy beast' in the language of this place, and all the villages here must obey the orders of the guardians, otherwise disaster will happen...... The Guardian gave us the order of the village, to guard this place, and every once in a while, go to the underground lake over there and throw a special wood called Fragrant Corpse Wood into the lake...... Last night, just the day when the timber should be thrown, the young man of our village, while he was throwing the timber, found a wounded man in a passage there, and now he was carried to the village, do you want to see him? ”
"Huh? Is there anyone else in the village? ”
Su Peng was surprised when he heard this, he nodded and said, "See!" We want to meet him! ”
"Alright, come with me." The old village chief nodded, he walked down from the wooden platform in the room, and led Su Peng and Yang Xi to one place.
Su Peng and Yang Xi followed the old village chief to a wooden house, and soon, they arrived at the place, and under the leadership of the old village chief, several people entered the wooden house together.
After entering the wooden house, Su Peng saw a person lying on the wooden couch of the wooden house at first glance, Su Peng saw this person, his heart trembled, this person was the blurred figure that Su Peng saw on another sea boat when he went to sea.
"Yes...... Brother Fu! ”
Su Peng looked at the person on the bed and thought in his heart.
I saw the person lying on the bed, it was when Su Peng first entered the rivers and lakes, one of the four unique swords that had a good relationship with Su Peng, Yi swordsmanship Fu Ziyi!
At this time, Fu Ziyi, with his eyes closed, lay motionless on the wooden couch, and seemed to be still unconscious.
"Brother Fu, why is he here?" Su Peng looked at Fu Ziyi and thought to himself.
"You know him?" Yang Xi was very sensitive, and when he saw that Su Peng's expression had changed, he asked Su Peng.
"Well, the characters in the world of this world I met in the game in my early years have a good relationship with me." Su Peng nodded, and then he walked quickly to Fu Ziyi's side and tested his pulse with his hand.
After a trial, Su Peng found that Fu Ziyi's pulse was quite strong and his life was worry-free, but it was a little messy, and it seemed that he had suffered internal injuries.
The old village chief, who led the two into the wooden house, saw it, stood behind Su Peng and said to him: "This is last night, when the young people of this village went to put incense corpse wood into the underground lake to 'Luya', they found this person, he seems to have been violently impacted, I guess it should be other sea beasts in the lake that attacked him, but this person seems to have good martial arts, he did not die, but fled into that passage before he fell unconscious...... I wanted to treat him, but unfortunately there is no decent medicine in the village, although there are many treasures on this island, but it is difficult to obtain, and I have no choice but to let him resign himself to fate. ”
Su Peng nodded when he heard this, he searched for a while in the Qiankun bag, and quickly found a porcelain bottle and took it out, opened the porcelain bottle, poured out a few pills, and suddenly the room was filled with the fragrance of flowers, Su Peng helped Fu Ziyi up, pried open his mouth, and used the wooden bowl on the table to give Fu Ziyi this water.
Although Fu Ziyi was unconscious, he still had the instinct to swallow, so he swallowed the two pills with water.
Su Peng put Fu Ziyi flat and waited slowly, and after about twenty minutes, Fu Ziyi seemed to have a reaction, his body moved a few times, suddenly twisted violently, turned sideways from the bed, and spit out a mouthful of black blood.
As Fu Ziyi spit out this mouthful of black blood, his expression seemed to be much more relaxed, and slowly, he woke up leisurely and opened his eyes...... (To be continued......)
