The distance between Lingtai Mountain Cave and Mashan Cave is not far or close, at the east end of the no-man's land.
If Xiang Que walked alone with his sword, he could arrive in about three days at most.
With such impatient thoughts, Xiang Que didn't know whether he was wasting his time or whether he would gain something by taking this trip, but he definitely had to go.
Two and a half days later, Xiang Que stood on the Qingshan Sword and saw an endless mountain range in the distance.
Everything here is lush and lush, with mountains upon mountains.
Lingtai Mountain is inaccessible to people and has many birds and animals, but the spiritual energy is not very full and is similar to the outside world. Therefore, it is not a holy place for spiritual practice. There is only a small Lingtai Sect built on a high mountain.
Not long after entering Lingtai Mountain, there was a local city. However, compared with Mashan, this city seemed too shabby. It should belong to the category of a small county town on the 18th line.
Based on the idea that he had just arrived here, Xiang Que did not fly with his sword, but thought of walking through here.
Walking on the not very prosperous and bustling streets, striding toward Quexin Pavilion, few people visited the shops on both sides, and most people seemed listless.
"A portion of braised pork, a stack of peanuts, some soy beef and chicken feet, and by the way, two jars of wine are a must..."
Xiang Que clasped his hands behind his back and strolled past when he heard someone behind him shopping with the store owner. At first, he didn't pay much attention. After all, it was just a very ordinary scene.
"It's you, you idiot again. The last two times you owed me wine and meat on credit, I still haven't paid for it," the shop owner yelled indignantly.
"Oh my, isn't this because the incense in Guanli is not good? You are waiting. When I get the money for the incense, I will come over and pay you immediately. Why are you urging me?"
"Haha, your broken Taoist temple is not yet a prostitute, but you still want to hope for incense? It's a liar. Your master and disciple are the biggest liars in Lingtai Mountain. Your master has come twice, and now he can't even see you.
If you were exposed, did you die on Lingtai Mountain? You are such a heartless old man."
"Let's go, let's go, we'll pay the bill later!"
Xiang Que suddenly stopped, then slowly turned around, his eyes searching the street behind him for a moment.
Xiang Que felt that the voice just now was very familiar, and he always felt that he had heard it somewhere.
Xiang Que saw a butcher shop, and the proprietress was cursing with her hands on her hips: "Turtle grandson, turtle grandson, a nest of three masters and apprentices working together, they are not good things..."
In front of the door of the butcher shop, there was no longer the figure of the man who had just been messing around buying wine and selling meat. Xiang Que frowned and said, "Did you hear that wrong?"
After coming out of the city, the mountain where Lingtai Sect is located is not very far from here, but the mountain is very high. It may be a waste of time to walk up it on two legs.
The Qingshan Sword "swish" and rushed towards the top of the mountain.
On the top of the mountain is where the Lingtai Sect is located. It is very rundown, not much different from the ancient well temple at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain. The courtyard wall has collapsed, the gate is crooked to the side, and the green bricks on the ground have been turned over in several places.
It feels particularly desolate.
Only, the plaque of Lingtai Sect hanging above the door seems to be the same thing, but there is no guarantee that a strong wind will blow it down.
Xiang Que came to the gate of Lingtai Zongshan and looked inside. The yard was quite neat and clean. Except for a few fallen leaves, it was well kept.
Then, Xiang Que saw a statue of a god in the center of the Lingtai Sect's grand ceremony. Relying on the memory of his previous life, Xiang Que was probably able to identify it, even though there were some discrepancies. It seemed like it was Jiang Ziya?
Jiang Ziya, Lingtai Conferred God?
"Spring is tired, autumn is tired, and summer is taking a nap." In the yard, a voice suddenly shouted lazily, and then said in a voice like a broken gong: "Drink, drink, drink when the sky is clear and the day is dark, when it is raining continuously, wouldn't you be sorry if you don't drink?
Life?"
When Xiang Que heard this, his expression instantly became astonished. This voice seemed to be a century away from him, but it sounded as if it was yesterday.
"Master, if you want to do credit next time, you can go over there. The landlady is going to ban me. You can't just ban us both. It's time for you to take action."
Xiang Que turned his head stiffly and looked at the corner of the Lingtai Sect courtyard in disbelief.
On one side of the main hall, there is a shady place, where three people are sitting on the floor, drinking and chatting.
This scene seems to have been separated by a century, but it seems like it was yesterday.
A slovenly old man leaned forward and said lazily: "You don't know, when I passed by that meat stall in the past, the landlady always looked at me with a gleaming look. It's okay if I want to go.
But I’m afraid that her husband won’t be willing to do it, is that true?”
Those were Bai Xiaosheng, Ning Haichen, Sun Changting, and the three masters and disciples of Liangshan Taoist Temple.
In the modern world, when the three Liangshan people entered the Cave Heaven Paradise, they did not forcefully open the barrier, nor did they overcome the tribulation like Zhu Chungang and Yu Qiuyang did. The three masters and disciples just walked toward the open space of the Cave Heaven Paradise.
That door.
From then on, Xiang Que never saw them again, but he always thought about the master and apprentice in his heart.
There are not many people that Xiang Que is grateful to in his life, and there are only a few people to count, but Bai Xiaosheng, Ning Haichen and Sun Changting must be counted.
Xiang Que suddenly felt very emotional. Apart from his own master and disciple, this was the first time he saw someone from his previous life in the Paradise of Cave Heaven.
"Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap" Xiang Que suddenly walked into the Lingtai Sect.
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
The three of them heard the footsteps and turned around at the same time, and saw a handsome man walking over with slightly red eyes.
When Xiang Que rarely felt emotional, he came closer and said with a choked voice: "Did I think you were all dead and you were still alive?"
Bai Xiaosheng's face suddenly drooped, and he said: "Donor, we have no grievances against you, why do you curse my master and my three disciples? It's not good for you to be so blasphemous, but since you are kind-hearted and this is your first offender, there must be some
It’s better to feel repentant. There is no festival that can’t be overcome by a meal of wine and food. If you can’t get through it, then two meals will be enough.”
Ning Haichen shook his head and said, "No, I have to ask for three meals, and I have to make up for the money I owe on credit for the first two times."
Xiang Que suddenly sat down cross-legged. On the ground were two jars of wine, a portion of braised pork and peanuts, and some beef. It was exactly the same as the voice he heard in the city before.
Xiang Que picked up the wine bowl and drank it all in one gulp, then wiped his mouth and said, "Are the three of us in Liangshan Taoist Temple always living such a miserable life?"
