Chapter 52: The Lonely Man

(4)

After losing consciousness, Bai Feng was taken to a certain place to recuperate. No one told him where he was. After he woke up, he wanted to take off the medical gauze in front of him to see where he was, but he was immediately sternly rejected.

"If you don't want to be a blind man for the rest of your life, don't do this nonsense!"

Bai Feng remembered what the little Taoist priest said.

It seemed like there were only two of them in this place, deserted but not indifferent.

Speaking of which, the little Taoist priest didn't seem to care about where this place was. He didn't even mention the words "Spirit Snake Temple", which made Bai Feng have to wonder if God was joking with him.

——Perhaps this is somewhere else?

The temporary blindness did not bring any inconvenience to Bai Feng's daily life. He was treated as a guest, served tea and water, and had no worries about food and clothing. Although he ate old grains that smelled of mold, it was still better than what he had to endure outside.

Wind and snow are much better.

Then I don’t know how much time passed, and Bai Feng couldn’t count the days. Anyway, when his eyes were healed, the little Taoist priest took the initiative to take off the gauze in front of his eyes, and then what came into view was a fair and pure little Taoist priest.

Taoist priest.

His eyes were round and round, and that look belonged to a simple man who had never been influenced by the world. His gaze was unguarded. If Bai Feng suddenly glanced at him at this time, he would definitely look back to express his kindness, and

There is always a smile in his eyes, a smile that comes from the heart when he is curious about everything.

Bai Feng seemed to be able to see his former self in the other person, which was an inexplicable feeling of intimacy.

Ge Mao asked: "The name of the small Taoist priest is Ge Mao. I studied under Taoist Master Ge Hu. I still don't know why you came here alone."

Bai Feng said: "Dare I ask if this place is the Spirit Snake Temple?"

"What is the Spiritual Snake Temple? I've never heard of it." Ge Mao scratched his head and saw Bai Feng's frightened look. He later realized that he had said something wrong and continued: "I'm sorry, maybe my master knows! I was confused for a while.

I'm sorry, you don't know your son's surname?"

"White Phoenix."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Feng left the bed. Days of rest on the bed made his limbs weak. He stumbled and almost fell down. However, he still stood firm and looked around. They were all decorated in simple ways. He picked up his sword and asked

Said: "Taoist Master Ge Mao, where is your master?"

"Master is outside."

"Okay, I have something to ask him." Bai Feng pushed the door open and saw mountain walls on all sides. The light was dark and only illuminated by rows of candlelight.

There are three buildings here. According to Bai Feng's understanding, they should correspond to heaven, earth, and people respectively. The building he just walked out of was built for people, which is called home.

No more than ten steps outside the hut, you can see an extremely thin old man sitting on the ground with his back turned.

"Da da da……"

What sound is coming?

Bai Feng walked to the front of the old man and found that the sound was the sound of counting chips: the old man had been repeating the action of throwing and catching chips.

"Is this Taoist Ge Hu?"

"Uh." Ge Hu faltered and could hardly hear what he was saying. He seemed to be still intoxicated in the fortune-telling process.

"I want to know if this is the Spiritual Snake Temple. If Taoist Master knows about it, please let me know!"

Ge Hu suddenly opened his eyes wide and stared straight at Bai Feng. His hair was almost completely bald, with only a little bit of white hair left on the back and sides of his head. His skin was dark yellow, thin and ugly, and there were white hairs on his forehead.

There is a huge black mole, but his teeth are very neat, which also prevents him from speaking with slurred speech like a toothless old man.

"Spirit Snake Temple?! I haven't heard this name for a long time...about twenty years?"

Bai Feng knelt down in front of the old man excitedly and begged: "My dear Bai Feng, I am the disciple of White Snake Immortal Gao, and I was ordered by my master to go back to Spirit Snake Temple to plead guilty!"

"What? You said you are a disciple of Gao's wife?" Ge Hu looked at Bai Feng in confusion: "I didn't expect that the person who came was actually you..."

"What's wrong?"

Ge Hu got up from the ground. Bai Feng was afraid that he would fall to his body and wanted to help him. Unexpectedly, the ignorant old man suddenly changed his temper and shouted angrily: "Ge Hu's disciple, please forgive me. I must apologize."

Look!"

"Ge Shu? Is that the master's Taoist name?"

Ge Hu shouted to Ge Mao: "Bring me my crutch!"

After a while, Ge Mao brought a wooden crutch that was half a head taller than himself. It was more like a stick than a crutch. Ge Hu took this stick and declared to Bai Feng: "Win the battle."

Me, I will tell you whatever you want to know."

"Beat...defeat senior?" Bai Feng was surprised, looked at Ge Mao and said, "What is going on?"

Ge Mao's innocent face showed a rare expression of embarrassment, and said: "I don't know about Xiaodao. Master, Mr. Bai should not know us, right?"

"Hurry up and draw your sword, are you looking down on me?" Ge Hu raised his stick and his breath quickly became very steady. He was clearly angry just a moment ago.

Bai Feng replied: "I never draw a sword easily, not to mention you are an old man, I will never draw a sword easily."

"Haha, then you have to find a way to defeat me without drawing your sword. That's not an easy task." Before Ge Hu could finish his words, he poked his stick directly at Bai Feng's chest. Bai Feng dodged past and swept across quickly.

He raised his eyebrows with a stick and forced Bai Feng back a few steps.

Bai Feng saw these moves and was surprised by Ge Hu's stability and agility. He didn't even move half a step, he was just playing with the stick moves.

"It's so interesting to defeat the senior without drawing the sword." Bai Feng's fighting spirit became stronger. He began to walk in circles around Ge Hu, and kept changing directions to look for flaws. He would never seek a frontal breakthrough.

"What a good boy, you are worthy of being Ge Min's disciple." After Ge Hu sighed, he immediately changed his stick technique, raised his long stick and jumped to the top of the stick like a wild monkey. Although he was teetering, he maintained his balance with his extraordinary ability.

, and then took advantage of his strength to actively approach Bai Feng. When he got close, he hit him with a stick.

"Knowing that he is too old to move with a stick to gain an advantage, what a clever trick!" Bai Feng failed to gain the upper hand after several moves, and he began to admit in his heart that he really underestimated Ge Hu.

The stick easily sat on the top of the stick, still shaking and trying to fall, but he just couldn't fall. If there is a god in the world, maybe he looks like this leisurely and contented person: "You have completely misjudged the situation. From the bottom of my heart

I feel that I am young enough, have strength, speed, and wisdom, and it is effortless to deal with an old guy like me, but is this true? You have also seen that you cannot catch my stick moves with your bare hands."

Bai Feng said: "Yes, senior made up for his shortcomings with stick moves..."

"The way of heaven is to make up for the excess of damage." Ge Hu said with a smile: "You must have recited this sentence many times, right?"

"Yes." Bai Feng felt the blood rekindled in his limbs: "I understand, I will never look down on my senior again!"

"Okay!" Ge Hu said, and immediately hit him with his stick.

Bai Feng stood on the spot and held his sword to meet the attack, but in an instant he completed the action of drawing his sword and slashing. Not only did he successfully neutralize Ge Hu's attack, but he also cut off one third of his crutch.

"Ah!!!" Ge Hu screamed sadly: "Who asked you to chop off my crutch, you bastard!"

"This..." Bai Feng was helpless.

"Master!" Ge Mao saw this and hurried over to look at the crutches.

Seeing the regret on Bai Feng's face, Ge Hu seemed to feel sorry for himself. He kept saying, "If I don't fight, I will lose completely. Even though I knew I would lose."

"Taoist Master Ge Hu, I should have done a good job, right?" Bai Feng said hesitantly.

Ge Hu said: "Bai Feng, you have done a great job. You are worthy of being Ge Shen's direct disciple. Moreover, my junior brother is willing to let you go up the mountain to 'question your guilt.' You must be recognized by your junior brother for your civil and military character to receive such treatment."

"Ask for guilt? But Master told me that he owes Spirit Snake Temple a lot and he will never be able to pay it back in this life! This... what is going on?"

Ge Hu held on to his crutches and walked to another room with a smile. He turned around and said, "We are the ones who should apologize."
