Chapter seven hundred and ninetieth Huang Daren's request
"Guan Xu, damn, let's go out and smoke a cigarette. It's been almost two days since we came here, and I'm almost suffocated." I squatted in the tent and said to Guan Xu, who was sitting opposite me.
It was too cold up here and we couldn't light a fire. Ling Xiao ran outside the tent and went somewhere. Old man Li was wrapped in five or six layers of quilts and sleeping next to us. Zhao Shanyu was not afraid of the cold and was outside.
Help us look out for the wind.
There are dangers on Gonger Peak. Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. In the past two days, many people have met their enemies and then had a fight. In most cases, one of them died and the other was seriously injured.
Frozen to death.
It's extremely cold here, and anyone injured can easily freeze to death.
"Don't talk nonsense. I'm still smoking. I used to know a few friends from the army in Tibet. He said that the soldiers who were stationed at the border there were at an altitude of 4,000 meters. Six or seven people took turns to smoke a cigarette, and they could only take one puff.
, once, a guy couldn't help but smoke one, and he was immediately flown down by helicopter for emergency treatment. You said that at this altitude of 7,000 meters, don't die from lack of oxygen just because of a cigarette. That's too disrespectful.
." Guan Xu shook his head.
I thought about it and realized that it made sense. I couldn't help complaining to Ah Yue. It was inconvenient to smoke at such a high place. The people who came up were all as cold as pandas. Why were they fighting?
.
I took out my cell phone and checked the time. It was ten o'clock in the morning. Today was the day agreed for the decisive battle. I didn't know when it would be.
Ling Xiao suddenly walked in from outside. His body was covered with white snow. He said, "Erguotou, give me a drink."
It was too cold up here and we couldn't make a fire. Fortunately, we brought a lot of Erguotou. I took out a bottle from my bag and threw it to Ling Xiao. Ling Xiao took a sip and said hotly:
"Master Hu San and the others arrived just now, as well as Li Zhendong and Miao Long from the Tianli Sect."
"Yeah." I nodded.
"Where is Liu Boqing?" Guan Xu asked, "Are you here?"
"I don't see anyone now, but he will definitely come. Mao Linlong didn't see anyone, and Shangguan Liuyun didn't come either." Ling Xiao sat down as he spoke, put his hand to his mouth and took a breath, saying:
"This damn weather is so cold."
Suddenly, the sound of people talking was heard outside.
"Please come to our tent for a meeting, Mr. Yin Yang and Taoist priests."
"Who is it, holding a loudspeaker and yelling in the cold weather?" I frowned.
Ling Xiao thought for a moment and said, "I don't know. I probably want to discuss countermeasures. Let's go and have a look."
I, Guan Xu, and Ling Xiao stood up and unzipped the tent.
"Daughter-in-law, what's going on?" I asked Zhao Shanyu at the door of the tent.
Zhao Shanyu was still wearing a very thin leather jacket, and there was no hint of coldness in her.
"The tent over there." Zhao Shanyu pointed at a place 20 meters away that was slightly larger than our tent.
I know this tent, which came a little later than us, was built by two Yin-Yang gentlemen. It can be lived in. After all, setting up a tent requires a lot of energy, so by calculation, this person must have a good heart.
"Would you like to go take a look together?" I asked Zhao Shanyu.
Zhao Shanyu shook his head: "Mr. Yin Yang, I won't go to the Taoist gatherings. Although there are many people from cults now, it won't be good if I go.
"Well, just keep an eye on Old Man Li." I said.
Old Man Li doesn't know if it's because he's older, but he's much more afraid of the cold than us.
The three of us walked into the tent, and there were already more than a dozen people inside, including young men in their twenties and Mr. Yin Yang in his fifties and sixties.
The organizer of the event was actually someone we knew, Huang Daren.
Huang Daren sat at the front and said with a smile: "Master Ling, two brothers, come in and sit down for a while and drink some white wine."
"Brother Huang, I didn't expect it to be an event organized by you. We need to discuss something." I smiled and sat down casually with Guan Xu and Ling Xiao.
Everyone in the tent looked at Ling Xiao with a smile, obviously they all knew Ling Xiao. Of course, looking at the indifferent expression on Ling Xiao's face, Ling Xiao didn't know them.
"Headmaster Ling is here. Of course I can't organize this event. Can Mr. Ling say something?" Huang Daren looked at Ling Xiao with a smile and asked.
"Just don't die." Ling Xiao said lightly.
Huang Daren immediately applauded: "Well said, well said."
The people around me also applauded decently.
I feel ashamed in my heart, this is such obvious bureaucracy, even the leader’s farts taste good.
Although Ling Xiao is not their leader, the people here are obviously Mr. Yin Yang. This is a sign of respect for Ling Xiao, the head of Longhu Mountain.
"Master Ling, before I start talking, I have a grudging request." Huang Daren thought for a while and said.
Ling Xiao looked at him and asked, "Tell me."
"I originally wanted to ask Master Li, but he didn't come, so I just want you to do this favor for me. I have a seven-year-old apprentice. This time I came here to ask the neighbors to help watch over me. If I die
, can you accept him as your apprentice? Don’t worry, he is very talented." Huang Daren said.
A person around him started to cheer and said: "Old Huang, you are usually so honest and honest, but you actually want to take advantage of this. Who doesn't know that the master's apprentices are all trained by the current master? You are thinking like this."
"No, no, Master Ling also knows that this place is dangerous. If I die, my child will really have nothing to rely on. I just want to find a way out for my apprentice, and he is indeed very talented, so he can follow me.
You insulted him, so I want him to learn from you." Huang Daren said honestly.
"What's your name?" Ling Xiao asked.
"I don't have much education. When I was naming him, he was young and pointed to a capital L, so I called him L. Leader Ling is a man of education. If you are not satisfied, you can change his name." Huang Daren said quickly.
Ling Xiao closed his eyes and nodded: "Really? It's a good name. If you die, I will go to your home and have a look. If he is really talented, I will accept him as my apprentice. If he is not talented, I will let him join my dragon."
The prerequisite for becoming an ordinary disciple in Humen is that you die."
After saying that, Ling Xiao stopped talking.
"Guan Xu, do you have any apprentices? I've been studying Taoism for so long and I still haven't had any apprentices." I asked Guan Xu in a low voice next to me.
Guan Xu shook his head: "Come on, accepting apprentices depends on opportunity. If you don't have talent, I would rather not accept an apprentice."
Then there was a lively chat in the room, that is, a discussion. Of course, it was not nutritious. Ling Xiao listened for a while and then left. Guan Xu and I drank Erguotou and chatted with these people, which was quite happy.
