C10

When Xiao Feng thought of this, no matter how hard he tried, he was unable to understand. Since these people weren't coming for their teacher, they were definitely coming for him. But what could he possibly want? What could he possibly deserve from so many people?

Xiao Feng struggled to get to sleep. In a daze, Xiao Feng had a dream. He dreamt of being chased by many demons. These demons had ferocious appearances. Each of them held a knife, a sword and various other weapons as they rushed towards him … He tried to shout but couldn't. He looked at his master, Daoist Qing, who was not far in front of him, but he kept feeling that his master was very, very far away from him, so far that no matter how hard he ran, he would not be able to run in front of his master …

Jiankang Residence was a large city that was on the Yangtze River and even closer to the capital. Before, there were three countries where the Sun Dynasty, the Jin Dynasty and the Northern and Southern Dynasties established their capital, which was based on the theory of "six dynasties and ancient capital".

The mansion had a mountain called Zhong Shan, also known as Zi Jinshan, which was ten miles east of the city. Jiankang Mansion north to the Yangtze River, Zhong Shan drooped at the east head. The mountain was towering like a coiled flood dragon; the rocks were dangerous, but they were also like tigers at the edge of a river. During the three kingdoms, Zhuge Liang had personally gone to the Wu Kingdom to form an alliance. Passing by, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Long Pan of Mount Zhong, Shi Shitou and Hu Ying, this is truly a house of the Emperor!"

This mountain was also known as the Purple Gold Mountain because the hillside stones were exposed to the purple shale. Under the sunlight, the shale shone with a golden light. Thus, the mountain had been renamed the Purple Gold Mountain back in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. At the foot of the southeastern slope of Zijin Mountain, there was a temple called the "Kaishan Temple". It was built by Emperor Liang Wu in the Southern Dynasty in memory of the famous Buddhist monk BaoZhi.

Jieshen Temple has flourished since Emperor Liang Wu's time, reaching its peak in Li and Tang. After the Golden Annihilation of the Northern Song Dynasty, most of the temples in the country were in decline. At this moment, within the Enlightenment Temple, besides the abbot, Master Enlightenment, there were also 30 other disciples. Master Kaihua presided over the prayer meeting today. During the meeting, he discovered that there was one less person. Thus, he asked the steward why he was missing a person, but the steward didn't know the answer.

One of the disciples answered, "No, no sorrow. The reason for leaving was because his mother died of illness and went home with him."

Another disciple said that on the day before he left, there was a strange looking person who came looking for him. I got up and went to the latrine in a daze. I happened to hear the two of them talking, and said they were going to look for some treasure.

"Then why didn't you report the situation to me before leaving?" Master Kaihua said. He turned to the deacon and said, "This is your dereliction of duty. You are to go down the mountain and look for the sadness. If he really did go home to mourn, then he will take a few more disciples with him to help his mother. "If you falsely report the truth and find some treasure, bring it back to the temple, then you will be able to deal with it!"

The deacon nodded his head and said, "Don't worry abbot. Disciple will definitely give the abbot an explanation when he brings Gesun back."

"All right. Then let's begin today's reading. " Master Kaihua waved his hand and said to the deacon, "Deacon, follow me."

After saying that, Grandmaster He Hai walked out of the inn.

"Abbot, what's the matter?" The deacon followed him out and stopped under a tree outside the temple.

"You're hiding something from me. Tell me, is it about disciple Wu Bei?" The abbot turned and smiled.

The deacon was so scared that he kneeled on the ground and said in panic, "Abbot, this disciple has committed a grave mistake. Please punish him!"

Seeing that, the abbot secretly thought that he had guessed correctly. He supported the supervisor without changing his expression: "What mistake did you make? Get up and talk. "

"The abbot entrusted me with the task of supervising the disciples' cultivation. I wasn't able to carry it out strictly. He left the temple for some secret scripture, not for his mother's funeral. This disciple did not report it to the abbot in time. This disciple is guilty! " The deacon felt pain in his heart.

"Is that true?" The abbot was shocked. "I have also heard quite a few rumours about the martial arts world recently. It was said to be a secret martial arts technique left behind by Yue Fei from the Jin Wei Sect. It was collectively known as the 'Wu Mu will'. Later in the battle of Cai Zhou for my Great Song and Mongolia united and perished. However, the location of the 'Wu Mu Testament' is still unknown. "

"It is said recently that Taoist Qing saved a child in Cai Prefecture. Now that he is twelve years old, he has a way to find the 'Wu Mu Testament' in him. Therefore, it has caused quite a stir in the martial arts world recently. The various sects and clans have sent people to search for the Taoist Priest. "

When the supervisor heard this, he exclaimed, "That Wu Huan didn't tell me that it was Wu Mu Testament. He only said that it was a secret scripture. If I knew about this important matter, I would have reported it to the abbot long ago. "

"What happened has already happened, saying these things is useless." Master Kaihua shook his head and looked into the distance, "I don't think these people will succeed that easily. Leaving aside the fact that we still have yet to investigate whether this information is true or not. "

"Then who is Taoist Master? When I was young, I worked as a temple overseer at Shaolin Temple in Mount Song. A Taoist priest invited the four big sects to the Heavenly Mountain Association to discuss the matter of the Jin army. One of them had used his Dao arts to suppress the heads of other sects. How powerful was he?! A Taoist-head was promoted to the post of Allied leader, and he was in the centre of command of the various factions involved in the resistance against the Rebellion. Now that these people want to find trouble with Daoist Qing Qing, I'm afraid it won't be that easy. "

"I've heard of the reputation of Taoist Priest as well." The deacon nodded his head, "It's just that Daoist Qing is alone, after all. I'm afraid that a good man can't hold up against so many people, not to mention that he brought a child with him."

Of course, the abbot had thought of this and sighed, "How about this, you go down the mountain and scout the Jiankang Manor today. If there is any news regarding the Taoist or the child, contact your disciple and let me know. "

When the deacon heard this, he whispered, "Could it be that the abbot is also interested in that 'Wu Mu Will'?"

"I am not interested in that Wu Mu will at all. Didn't I say that the truth of this matter still remains to be determined? Have you forgotten that we, the family members, do not contend against others? " Master Kaihua raised his eyebrows, "The reason why I asked you to find out more about Daoist Priest is because I received a favor from him back then." If you have the chance to repay it now, you should repay this debt of gratitude. "

"Yes, yes!" This disciple will definitely remember the abbot's lesson. " The deacon hastily nodded his head.

"Alright. "You can go and pack up. After lunch, you can go down the mountain." Grandmaster Kaihua waved his hand and turned to leave.

Besides, the merchant ship that Xiao Feng was riding had left Chi Prefecture that night and was going down the Yangtze River. The next morning, Xiao Feng woke up in a daze and thought about the dream he had last night.

"I've never had a nightmare before. I didn't expect to have such a terrifying dream last night." Xiao Feng muttered to himself as he laid on the bed.

Through the small window beside his bed, Xiao Feng looked outside. The river bank was actually a towering mountain range that was continuously rising and falling, towering and steep. Occasionally, an unknown flock of birds could be seen flitting past the trees at the edge of the cliff before disappearing from sight.

There was no wind today, and although the boat was sailing smoothly, it was not moving fast.

Xiao Feng was concerned about the Daoist and wondered where his master was and how he was doing. If it was like this earlier, he shouldn't have boarded the ship alone. Thinking up to here, Xiao Feng suddenly remembered the letter his master had told him about. He hurriedly got up from the bed and found a letter in his bag. There were two pieces of paper inside.

On a piece of paper, there was a letter that Master was going to give to his old friend. The handwriting was clear and new. The other one was a simple drawing with the words "Penglai Island's route to the island" written on it. The drawing was still very clear, but the handwriting was a little fuzzy. It was obvious that it had been there for a long time.

Xiao Feng skimmed through the contents of the letter. The words "Supreme Celestial Penglai" in the letter were referring to his master's old friend. Next was to ask this old friend to take care of Xiao Feng. The last sentence was to remind Xiao Feng to follow the route on the map and find this "Penglai Immortal".

Xiao Feng kept the letter in his pocket. He had to hold onto this item closely and couldn't lose it, so he mumbled to himself: "Master has some sort of special relationship with this old friend. It seems that Master has an extraordinary relationship with Supreme Celestial Penglai. When that time comes, we will definitely pay our respects to this exalted deity. "
