”The Hundred Thousand Great Mountains?”
Ye Qiu was a little puzzled. He had never heard of it before. Could there really be a hundred thousand mountains?
The Long-Browed True Man explained, “The so-called Hundred Thousand Great Mountains are just a general term for some mountain peaks. Just like the Five Great Mountains, some mountain peaks are called Huangshan and some are called Taishan.”
“Although there are not a hundred thousand mountain peaks in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, there are still tens of thousands of mountain peaks. Not only that, but it is also rich in poisonous insects and fierce beasts.
“The hinterland of the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains is even called the Death Valley. Even the local villagers dare not go in and regard it as a forbidden area. It is said that there are ominous things inside, which are particularly terror.
The Long-browed True Man said, “After I returned from the capital last time, I deduced the whereabouts of the Celestial Master Sword through the secret technique of divination. The divination image indicates that the Celestial Master Sword is in the Great Dragon Mountain within the Ten-Thousand-Mountain Range.”
“Later, I looked through the handwritten notes left by the grand master. It was also mentioned that the grand master had once been to the Great Dragon Mountain and even killed a dragon.”
Kill a dragon?
Bullshit!
How could there be a dragon in the world?
Ye Qiu simply didn’t believe it and thought that the people from Longhu Mountain were boasting. He asked, “How far is the Great Dragon Mountain from here?”
“About two hundred kilometers.”
Two hundred kilometers is not too far.
Ye Qiu thought for a while and said, “Well, old man, your health is not good. You might as well go back to Longhu Mountain. I will go to the Great Dragon Mountain for you. If the Celestial Master Sword is really there, I will get it back for you.”
“You little brat, I appreciate your kindness, but I must go to the Great Dragon Mountain.”
The Long-browed True Man said, “The grand master said in the handwritten notes that the hinterland of the Ten-Thousand-Mountain Range is extremely mysterious and full of strange things. If you are not careful, you will die without a burial place. Moreover, there are poisonous miasmas, fierce beasts, and many unknown dangers inside.”
I am proficient in some Daoism. Maybe it can play a role.”
“As for my body, I think I can still hold on for a few days.”
“If I can find the Celestial Master Sword before I die, then I will die without regret.”
The Long-browed True Man has a deep obsession with the Celestial Master Sword.
The Longhushan Sect has been searching for this sword for hundreds of years, and countless people have gone after it. The Long-browed True Man really wants to fulfill this wish within his remaining lifespan.
“Uncle-Master, why don’t you just listen to Doctor Ye and go back to Longhushan. As for the matter of going to Dalong Mountain, I’ll go with Doctor Ye.”
Shuisheng persuaded from the side. He was also very worried about the Long-browed True Man’s body.
“Come here.” The Long-browed True Man beckoned to Shuisheng.
Shuisheng walked in front of the Long-browed True Man.
The Long-browed True Man made a gesture, and Shuisheng understood and crouched on the ground.
“Shuisheng, you have been with me for almost twenty years. You should know my character. I always mean what I say.”
“So, I must go to Dalong Mountain.”
“You don’t have to worry about my body. I once told you that I am a person with profound good fortune and won’t die easily.”
As the Long-browed True Man spoke, he stroked Shuisheng’s head with his hand.
Obviously, it was a very serious topic, but after seeing this scene, Ye Qiu couldn’t help but want to laugh a little.
What is this old thing doing?
Petting a dog’s head!
And Shuisheng actually looked very enjoying it!
Ye Qiu couldn’t help but feel a little pity for Shuisheng. This little guy didn’t seem to be very smart.
“Old thing, have you thought it through? Do you really want to go to Dalong Mountain?” Ye Qiu asked again.
The Long-browed True Man’s attitude was firm: “I must go!”
”Then take a rest. After daybreak, we’ll set off.” After Ye Qiu finished speaking, he lay down beside True Man Changmei.
True Man Changmei exclaimed in surprise: “Little bastard, what do you want to do? Let me tell you, although I’m injured, I won’t let you mess around.”
Ye Qiu cursed: “Don’t worry, I’m not gay.”
”Uncle-Master, what does being gay mean?” Shui Sheng raised his head and asked.
True Man Changmei: “…”
Ye Qiu: ”…”
”Shui Sheng, go to sleep quickly. We still have to hurry on our way after daybreak.” True Man Changmei said.
”Hmm, I’m a bit sleepy. I’ll sleep for a while.” Shui Sheng said: “Uncle-Master, if there’s anything you need me for, just wake me up.”
”Go to sleep quickly.”
Soon, Shui Sheng’s snoring was like thunder, shaking the heavens.
Ye Qiu was so noisy that he couldn’t sleep at all.
True Man Changmei had a lot on his mind and also kept his eyes open.
”Why don’t you sleep?” Ye Qiu asked.
”Anyway, I can sleep forever after death. Sleeping now is equivalent to wasting life.” True Man Changmei asked Ye Qiu: “It’s only been a few days since we parted. How did you cultivate true qi?”
”This is talent!”
Hearing Ye Qiu’s words, True Man Changmei gritted his teeth in anger. Damn it, he was showing off again.
”Old thing, your nephew here, who is clearly a Taoist, why does he have a shaved head?” Ye Qiu smiled and said: “People who don’t know might think he’s a monk.”
”Superficial!”
The Long-browed True Man said righteously: “How can you judge a hero by his hairstyle? If someone has a crew cut, do you think they are a convict?”
”You little brat, you’re wrong to think like this.”
”The reason why Shui Sheng has a shaved head is because he has no hair since birth.”
What?”
No hair since birth?”
There is such a strange thing.”
Ye Qiu has read many medical books and seen many patients, but a person who is born without hair, he is seeing for the first time.”
The Long-browed True Man sighed and said: “Shui Sheng is also a poor child.”
”Twenty years ago in the winter, my junior brother and I went down the mountain to experience. On the banks of the Wei River, we met Shui Sheng.”
”I still clearly remember that it was snowing heavily that day and it was extremely cold. When we saw Shui Sheng, Shui Sheng was less than one year old, sitting in a plastic washbasin, wearing a big red cotton-padded jacket, floating on the Wei River.”
”Obviously, he was an abandoned baby.”
”Shui Sheng has clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes. When he saw my junior brother and me, he even smiled at us.”
My junior brother and I saw that he was poor. so we picked up Shui Sheng. Then we found a note and a jade pendant in his cotton-padded jacket. The note had Shui Sheng’s birth date and time written on it.”
I calculated his fate based on his birth chart. This child lacks water in his life, and he will have good fortune when encountering water. Therefore, I named him Shui Sheng. Firstly, it means that water is the source of all things, and everything will be full of vitality when encountering water. Secondly, my junior brother and I picked him up by the Wei River. Taking this name means that he obtained a new life by the water.”
“Later, my junior brother and I brought Shui Sheng back to Longhu Mountain. Watching Shui Sheng grow up day by day, my junior brother was very happy. Later, when Shui Sheng was three years old, my junior brother accepted him as his closed-door disciple.”
“Unexpectedly, two years later, that is, when Shui Sheng was five years old, my junior brother died of illness.”
“Since then, I have been taking care of this child.”
The Long-browed True Man turned his head and took a look at Shui Sheng, and said, “This child Shui Sheng has a kind heart and is an honest person. Little brat, I entrust you with one thing. If I’m gone, you help me take care of him more.”
“No problem. When you die, I’ll take him to Jiangzhou.” Ye Qiu said.
“No, Shui Sheng must stay in Longhu Mountain.” The Long-browed True Man said, “Whether our Longhu Mountain can revive the glory of a thousand years ago depends on him.”
“Oh?” Ye Qiu was a little surprised. He didn’t expect that the Long-browed True Man had high hopes for Shui Sheng.”
The Long-browed True Man said, “Shui Sheng is a born sage!”
