When Lin Zhao woke up, he was lying on the meadow. Beside him, the fire was still crackling. On top of the fire, there were several fish and pieces of wolf meat that Wei Huarou had set up and grilled. They were now roasted.
Very fragrant.
"Are you awake?"
Wei Huarou hurriedly stepped forward, helped Lin Zhao up, and immediately picked up an iron bowl from the side. It contained water that had been boiled for who knows how long. She tried it and the water was still warm, so she smiled and said: "Drink some water first.
"
"oh……"
Lin Zhao took a deep breath, feeling that he had finally regained his breath. After picking up the bowl and drinking half of the water in one breath, Wei Huarou took another piece of roasted wolf meat and gave it to him and said, "Eat quickly, I've already eaten it."
It’s just a piece of meat…”
"good."
Lin Zhao devoured the meat. After eating the meat, his stomach felt warm and he felt reborn.
"Lin Zhao, you scared me to death."
Wei Huarou looked at him with a pair of beautiful eyes, her eyes were red.
"fine."
Lin Zhao shook his head and comforted in a far-fetched way: "Originally, I planned to use branches to catch some fish, but I didn't expect that after such a heavy rain, I would be targeted by a wolf. Do you still remember, the one that bit me yesterday?
The wolf actually came out to look for food alone. Fortunately, my knife skills are good, so I took care of it with just a few knives."
"You also said..."
Wei Huarou pursed her red lips, with tears in her beautiful eyes. She looked at Lin Zhao's legs and said: "Your leg...the wound can't be soaked in water all the time, so I helped you take off the cloth."
.”
"Well, that's true."
Lin Zhao nodded. He reached for a piece of grilled fish, took a bite, and shook his head with a smile: "Cun'er, your grilled fish skills are really...it's hard to describe in words."
Wei Huarou's pretty face turned red: "I have never done these things before..."
"Yes, you look like a child from a wealthy family."
Lin Zhao was a little envious and said: "Your family...is a high official?"
"ah?"
Wei Huarou coyly said, "Dad...Dad did become an official, but it was not a big one. At most...at most it was to make the family have enough food and clothing."
Of course she couldn't say that her father actually had a very high status and was one of the legendary third princes.
But Lin Zhao was still extremely envious. For a poor child who couldn't afford to eat, becoming an official, a wealthy businessman, etc. was something he never dared to dream about.
After eating and drinking, Lin Zhao frowned and said, "Cun'er, I just took part of the wolf's meat up the mountain last night. Now that we have enough strength, let's go down the mountain to see if the wolf meat is still there.
After all, I didn’t have the energy yesterday, and what I brought back was too little, so I couldn’t eat it for a few days.”
"Um!"
Wei Huarou nodded: "Can you still walk?"
"Yes, try it."
Lin Zhao stood up. Although there was still some pain in his calf, the wound was not deep or serious, so he went down the mountain with Wei Huarou.
…
Soon after, I came to the place where Lin Zhao killed the wolf last night, only to find that the wolf had only one skeleton left. It must have been that other wolves found the body and gnawed away all the meat, leaving only one skeleton.
Skeleton. For a moment, Wei Huarou covered her mouth and expressed that she was quite shocked by the scene in front of her. Lin Zhao frowned and felt that there was still some meat on the bones. It couldn't be wasted. It could be taken back to make soup or knock out the bone marrow.
, and some of the meat between the bones is still left, but it must not be wasted.
So, he dragged the wolf skeleton and went up the mountain with Wei Huarou.
When I just walked to the mountain road, I saw someone going up the mountain in the distance. It was a Taoist priest carrying a bamboo basket on his back. He was quite young and extremely handsome. He looked a bit like a mountain god. At a glance, this young Taoist priest could tell
When he saw Lin Zhao and Wei Huarou, he was stunned. He stood on the mountain road and looked at the young girl dragging the wolf bone.
"you?"
He was surprised.
Lin Zhao frowned. Although this Taoist priest was extremely delicate and graceful, Lin Zhao was inexplicably disgusted with him, especially the way he looked at Wei Huarou.
"We were passing by," Lin Zhao said.
"oh."
The other party smiled slightly: "I thought they were fairy boys seeking immortality in the mountains. If that's the case, I wouldn't mind accepting you two as my apprentices. Well, both of you have quite good abilities."
Wei Huarou's eyes lit up: "This Taoist Priest...is a god on the mountain?"
"Ah, a god?"
The young Taoist priest couldn't help but laugh, scratched his head and said: "Actually, I am not a god. My name is Yagyu. I have been studying with my husband for more than ten years without any success, so I gave up my identity as a Confucian and became a Taoist priest.
, Fortunately, I still have some talent in cultivating the Tao. Now I am a monk in the third realm of the lower five realms. I have taken a Taoist name called Master Shangqing. If you are willing, you can follow me to seek Taoism and study the Dharma."
"Really...is it really okay?" Wei Huarou asked.
"OK."
Yagyu smiled and said, "What's your name?"
"Wei Huarou."
"And you?"
"Lin Zhao."
The next moment, Liu Sheng smiled and said: "Wei Huarou, your talent for practicing Taoism is extremely rare. As long as you are willing to practice with me, Master, you are guaranteed to be a great monk in the Five Realms in the future. As for Lin Zhao, your sword training talent is pretty good, but are you willing to follow me?"
Learning the sword? I am a Taoist sword cultivator, and I am also a swordsman whose grace is not inferior to others."
Lin Zhao frowned and said: "I'll forget it. I didn't plan to go up the mountain to learn skills. Sir, I will go down the mountain and go home by myself after I recover from my injuries."
"OK."
Liu Sheng smiled and said: "Wei Huarou, from now on you are my Liu Sheng's disciple. Follow me to practice Taoism and seek immortality. Master will definitely teach you everything he has learned."
"Thank you, Master!"
Wei Huarou was very happy, finally meeting the legendary real mountain god.
…
Mountain top, Taoist temple.
The moment Liu Sheng stepped into the Taoist temple, he squinted his eyes and looked at the world around him. He took out a few talismans from his sleeves, burned them all, and said with a smile: "Sweep the dust, sweep the dust, from now on this place will be a different world.
"
Immediately, those Taoist talismans turned into auspicious light and wandered around the Taoist temple. In the blink of an eye, the cobwebs, dust, etc. in the nooks and crannies were swept away, and the grass roots in the yard were also annihilated one by one, driven out by the roots.
, the front hall, and the main hall became spotless. Lin Zhao and Wei Huarou were dumbfounded by this move.
Wei Huarou was very happy. The master was really a serious mountain god.
Lin Zhao frowned. Even with such means, Lin Zhao still felt that this Yagyu was definitely not a kind person.
On both sides of the main hall, Yagyu began to arrange accommodation. He took out beds from a storage bag and placed them in several rooms. All kinds of furnishings were available. In the blink of an eye, the Taoist temple had changed its appearance. He pointed to the left
He walked into a room and said with a smile: "Rou'er, this will be your room from now on. As for Lin Zhao... you can just stay in the main hall for a few days. You won't stay long anyway."
Yagyu is a willow tree spirit who grew up in the mountains. He has a unique hobby when it comes to killing people. He likes to torture people enough before killing them.
