After re-bandaging the wound, the man surnamed Ye turned to Zhang Taiping and asked, "I wonder what I call this brother?"

"Zhang Taiping."

"Brother Zhang's swordsmanship is unparalleled. I admire him. I hope he can come here again next year to ask for advice." The man surnamed Ye said again.

"Oh? That's fine." Zhang Taiping smiled and said, "Then we'll still be here next year."

After waiting for a man and a woman to disappear among the trees, Zhang Taiping and Taoist Master Ma returned to the Taoist temple. After taking their seats, Taoist Master Ma asked, "Does the commander have anything to do with his visit to the mountain this time?"

Zhang Taiping said with a smile: "There is nothing important, I just go to the mountains for a walk."

"We are here to see the tiger." Fan Ming said from the side.

"Tiger?" Taoist Master Ma pondered for a moment and said, "Commander, although this tiger is a good thing, its number has been very small as people have hunted it over the years. As the saying goes, rare things are more valuable, and tigers are now considered treasures.

, if you can’t help it, don’t hunt it.”

Taoist priest Ma's worries are not unreasonable, because with Zhang Taiping's strength, as long as he has weapons, it is easy to hunt two tigers. It is no wonder that he is worried that Zhang Taiping has this idea.

Zhang Taiping smiled and shook his head and said: "Taoist Master misunderstood. I don't have any ideas about these two tigers. I just came here to find something in the mountain."

"Why don't you let Qingmu take you to look for it?" Taoist Master Ma said.

"No need." Zhang Taiping waved his hand and said, "It's nothing urgent. Let's take a walk in the mountains. We are all people who grew up in the mountains. We don't worry about getting lost, so we won't bother Taoist Aoki.

Already."

Seeing Zhang Taiping's refusal, Taoist Ma did not insist any more.

Fan Ming looked inside the Taoist temple for a while and asked: "Aren't you two lonely living here? Why don't you live in the city, or in a village outside?"

Taoist Master Ma smiled and stroked his beard and said, "Being in the mountains is just for purity. It's just for cultivating one's body and mind."

"But, you may not see an outsider in this mountain for many days. Aren't you worried?"

"Don't be in a hurry." Taoist Master Ma said, "If you have something to do every day, you won't be in a hurry."

Fan Ming clasped his hands behind his back and said, "Didn't the book say that people can live in seclusion in the city? You can also cultivate your character in the busy city."

"What the girl said is right." Taoist Master Ma praised, "This is indeed a great state, but the current cultivation level of the old Taoist is not enough, and the state of mind cannot reach the state of calmness in the busy city, so he can only slowly stay in a quiet place.

It has tempered my state of mind.”

It is indeed a kind of knowledge for those who study Taoism to hone their mental state, but another point is that for those who practice martial arts, the more natural and pollution-free the place, the faster they can practice.

Fan Ming wrinkled her nose, and there were some naughty and cute wrinkles on it. The young Taoist priest Qingmu standing next to Taoist Ma was a little stunned, wondering how many souls and souls the three souls and seven souls had escaped.

Seeing his embarrassment, Taoist Master Ma put down his tea cup and coughed a few times. Aoki, who was awakened, felt that he had lost his composure, and his face instantly turned red. He lowered his head and did not dare to look at Fan Ming's natural beauty with a playful look.

Appearance.

Fan Ming did not see Qingmu's appearance and continued: "If I had been left to live alone in the mountains for so long, I would have gone crazy."

The old Taoist priest said: "Girls are born in the world of mortals. Naturally, these deep mountains and old forests are not where girls belong."

After two cups of tea, Zhang Taiping and the others got up and left. Taoist Master Ma and Qingmu sent the few people out of the Taoist temple. Until the figures of the few people disappeared, Taoist priest Qingmu was still looking at the bushes blankly.

Taoist Master Ma sighed softly and said, "It's time for you to go out and have some experience."

Aoki came back to his senses and scratched his head in embarrassment and said: "Master..."

Taoist Master Ma said: "Although the practice in the mountains makes rapid progress and the state of mind is calm, it is incomplete without experiencing the training of the world of mortals. Only by experiencing it in the world of mortals and then returning to the mountains to wash away the lead can we be able to practice in the mountains."

The state of mind is raised to a higher level, and sword practice mainly depends on the state of mind."

But the old Taoist priest sighed in his heart, and there were still some words he didn't say, "I just don't know if you are willing to go back to this ancient temple in the mountains to live such a miserable and quiet life after you reach the world of mortals."

A cute and cute figure appeared in Aoki's heart, and he became cheerful and asked: "Master, when can I go out to practice?"

Taoist Master Ma glanced at him and said, "Just wait until you practice your swordsmanship to the point where you achieve some success."

The excitement on Aoki's face disappeared immediately. It would take at least half a year to meet the requirements mentioned by the master.

Zhang Taiping and the others left the Taoist temple and continued to climb two hills to the south. After standing on a hill, Zhang Taiping pointed to the small valley opposite and said, "If you are right, that's where it is."

Cai Xiaomei covered her eyes with her hands and looked out, but there was nothing else except a patch of green.

Fan Ming said: "We're finally here, but why didn't we see the tiger?"

Zhang Taiping shook his head and said: "The mountainous area is so big, is it so easy to see it if you want to?"

"Then you were still worried before?"

"Just in case."

After going down the hillside and entering the valley that Zhang Taiping just pointed out, the trees inside did not look like they grew naturally, but had an obvious artificial arrangement. And although the grass in the valley was decaying and covered the entire ground, there were still

It is not common to see flowers that do not grow naturally, and flowers that bloom in the middle of winter.

Sure enough, after walking inside for a while, I saw a bamboo building, but it had not been repaired for a long time and looked very dilapidated. There was a plum tree in front of the wooden house, with white plum blossoms blooming on it. It was really like a bamboo building overnight.

The trees were covered with snowflakes, and the fragrance filled the entire valley.

"It seems like this is it." Zhang Taiping said.

Cai Xiaomei said: "There is actually a plum tree. It seems that the original owner here must be an elegant man."

Fan Ming ran directly to the plum tree. She originally wanted to pick off a branch, but she stopped when she reached the flower. She put her nose to the plum blossom and smelled it and said, "It smells so good."

Several big dogs rushed into the house and looked around.

The door of the wooden building was not locked, so Fan Ming said: "Why don't you go in and take a look, maybe you can find some treasures." She didn't care about what treasures she might find, but she just had the excitement of treasure hunting.

Zhang Taiping shook his head and said, "I'm not going in." This was the former residence of the old man's old friend. Even if there was something precious about it, Zhang Taiping didn't want to go in and check it out. He said, "We'd better find something to dig into the bar."

Cai Xiaomei took a shovel from the door of the wooden house and said, "Use this."

Zhang Taiping took the shovel and started digging under the plum tree. After a while, he dug out three ceramic jars. They were the same as the jars the old village chief dug out of the backyard, only a little larger. The color on them was also the same as the soil.

a color.

"Open it and see if it's broken?" Fan Ming said hurriedly.

Zhang Taiping patted the mud seal on it and opened the lid inside, and a rich aroma immediately came out.

"It's not broken, that's great!" Fan Ming said happily.

Zhang Taiping glanced at her and said, "What, do you want to take a sip?"

"No, no." Fan Ming quickly waved her hands and said, "I just feel happy that such a precious wine has not gone bad." After hearing what Zhang Taiping said about the disadvantages of this kind of wine, she had no idea about this kind of wine.

.

Wukong smelled the aroma of wine and immediately ran over, holding a wooden gun made of ironwood in his hand. Zhang Taiping and the others did not enter the wooden house, but Wukong had no such scruples. While the three were digging for wine, Wukong

Sneaked in.

"Zhizhi!" Wukong pointed at the wine jar on the ground and jumped and screamed, very excited.

"Go, go, this wine is not for you." Zhang Taiping waved his hand towards it and said.

Animal intuition is very powerful. Wukong can feel the special effects of tiger bone wine, and his yearning for tiger bone wine is much stronger than other wines. He kept gesticulating towards Zhang Taiping, his eyes radiating hot light.

Zhang Taiping said: "If you want to drink, you have to wait until you get home. This is not the place, and there is no point in being anxious."

Wukong had no choice but to retreat to the side dejectedly, waving the spear in his hand angrily, showing his martial prowess, which was no less impressive than Sun Wukong in Journey to the West.
