Chapter 780: First Visit to Piaomiao Villa
Chapter 780 Entering Piaomiao Villa for the first time
The mountain road leading from Piaomiao Hall to the foot of Shixin Peak has an inconspicuous fork in the road. It is rugged and goes north. It turns a few hillsides and walks through a messy thorn forest. In front of it is a crystal clear stream. .
Zhang Xiaohu stood behind the thorn forest and looked at the single-plank bridge over the creek with a complicated expression.
This single-plank bridge is very simple. It only has a thick tree that has been knocked down, and it is over the creek that is not wide. The creek is also very shallow, and you can cross it casually even by wading. But behind the single-plank bridge, two The disciples wearing the clothes of the Piaomiao Sect stood upright, as if they were the archway of the Piaomiao Villa, with serious expressions.
&. Pig. Pig. island. Novel w.hha.omnbsp; It’s just that the clothes have long been worn out and are far less bright than when Zhang Xiaohu and Zhang Xiaohua first arrived at Miao Miao Villa.
Zhang Xiaohu walked over in no hurry, first stared at it for a moment, and then looked left and right.
"Second brother? Are you looking for me?" Zhang Xiaohua slightly revealed his head from the thorn forest and asked with a smile.
"No, I walked all the way and didn't see you. I thought you had lost me. There is..."
Before Zhang Xiaohu could finish speaking, Zhang Xiaohua whispered: "Someone is coming, probably a disciple of Yixiang Peak."
Then he retracted his head into the thorn forest, but couldn't see it.
Zhang Xiaohu felt a chill in his heart, and immediately changed the expression on his face, frowned slightly, and walked through the thorn forest.
"Stop!" a clear voice came from the sky on the left.
Zhang Xiaohu pretended to be surprised, looked up, and saw a middle-aged man in white jumping down from the big tree over there, using Qinggong to walk in, and asked coldly: "Who are you? Why are you here? ?”
Zhang Xiaohu cupped his hands and said, "Excuse me, are you the senior brother on duty at Yixiang Peak?"
The middle-aged man was obviously very disgusted with the senior brother's voice. He frowned slightly and said displeasedly: "I am, who are you?"
Seeing that the disciple did not even inform him of his name, Zhang Xiaohu knew that he was unhappy, so he just sneered in his heart, but said: "I am Zhang Xiaohu, a disciple of Piaomiao Hall. Following the order of the hall master, I went to Piaomiao Villa. I also asked senior brother to make it convenient for me. "
"Piao Miao Villa?" The disciple snorted coldly and said, "Where can there be Piao Miao Villa on Shixin Peak? There is only a nameless mountain col here.
There is no place for you to say”
"Haha. Senior brother Mingjian, I'm going to the nameless mountain col you mentioned. Please make it easier." Zhang Xiaohua took out the token of Piaomiao Hall from his arms. The disciple reached out to take it and looked up and down. Somewhat dismissively, he said, "Is this just a token?"
Zhang Xiaohu said with a smile: "Is there any difference between yes and no? However, I remember that the leader of Yixiang Peak said that day, this unknown mountain col can be accessed unimpeded with only the token of Piaomiao Hall, senior brother. What other tokens do you want to see?”
"Joke." The disciple curled his lips, sneered, threw the Piaomiao Hall token back to Zhang Xiaohu, and said: "Of course you can travel unimpeded with the Piaomiao Hall token, but you can only go to this thorn forest. You If you want to take a stroll, I will never stop you. You can enjoy yourself as much as you want, even if you bring your female disciples from Piaomiao Hall with you, I won't interfere. "
Then he looked sideways at the creek and sneered, "But if you want to get close to that creek, don't blame me for being rude."
Zhang Xiaohu sighed in his heart, took out another token from his arms, handed it forward, and said: "This is the token of my Deputy Hall Master Gao of Piaomiao Hall. Please have it checked by senior brother."
"Deputy Hall Master Gao?" The disciple was even more stunned and asked in surprise: "Isn't the deputy hall master of your Piaomiao Hall Senior Brother Zhong? Why did he suddenly change his position?"
However, I still took it and examined it carefully.
While the disciple was inspecting it, Zhang Xiaohu sneered and said: "Vice Hall Master Zhong has worked hard and accomplished great things in our Miao Miao Hall. He was recruited back by the leader for re-employment. Vice Hall Master Gao only came yesterday."
The disciple listened, nodded, handed the token back, and said thoughtfully: "It turns out that Senior Brother Gao just came to Shixin Peak yesterday, so that's no wonder."
"What's the wonder?" Zhang Xiaohu asked in surprise.
The disciple looked like he was not surprised, and waved his hand casually and said: "Junior brother, please don't play tricks with me. A few years ago, your Hall Master Yang sent some disciples to come over to talk about matters, but gradually they stopped coming. Last year, a disciple of your Piaomiao Hall named Zhao Jian came here under the order of Deputy Hall Master Zhong, but he went back in despair. What are you doing here, do I need to ask?"
After saying that, he stepped aside and said: "You should go back early, but please don't lose face. The people inside are all die-hard disciples of the Piaomiao Sect. Although you want to spread the Xiang Sect, after all, you used to be a disciple of the Piaomiao Sect. , seeing that they are all a little shorter, this job, tsk tsk, is really difficult..."
Seeing the regret and sympathy on the disciple's face, Zhang Xiaohu felt puzzled. He didn't know what the disciple was muttering. However, just based on these few words, Zhang Xiaohu knew that there must be something in it that he had not known before. things.
But, does this have anything to do with me? My mission is completely different from that of Zhao Jian and other disciples before. How could the old disciples of the Piaomiao Sect embarrass myself?
Zhang Xiaohu smiled and cupped his hands at the disciple. He looked around without leaving any trace, trying to find any trace of Zhang Xiaohua. Unfortunately, it was normal before. Even the disciples from Yixiang Peak nodded slightly and had no other reaction.
Zhang Xiaohu walked to the front of the single-plank bridge, stepped up as soon as he was angry, and walked slowly across.
Now Zhang Xiaohu's injuries are much better, and the internal energy in his body is improving rapidly due to the dual cultivation of yin and yang. The effect of one day's training is almost as good as ten days for others.
Let’s talk about the disciples on the other side of the creek. They had long seen the Yixiang Peak disciples blocking Zhang Xiaohu. When they saw Zhang Xiaohu being let go, one of them immediately picked up a bow and arrow from the ground and shot out a loud arrow. Waiting for Zhang Xiaohu to slow down. As they walked across the single-plank bridge, there were already several people running towards them with weapons in hand. However, these people's steps were heavy and they did not look like people practicing martial arts.
Zhang Xiaohu sighed secretly in his heart, walked across the stream, and stopped approaching. He only said loudly: "Now, Zhang Xiaohu, a disciple of Piaomiao Hall, has come to pay homage to Master Li and Master Liu on the order of Hall Master Yang."
After hearing this, the disciples of the Piaomiao Sect did not relax their guard. One of the older men, carrying an eyebrow-level stick, came over and said in a cold voice: "I only know the disciples of the Piaomiao Sect, and I don't know anything about them. Piaomiaotang, this little brother, you should go back and wash up and sleep early, don’t play around here. "
Zhang Xiaohu was not angry. He raised his hands and said with a smile: "I am the disciple of Wen Wenhai, the direct disciple of the Piao Miao Sect. I came here today because I have important matters to discuss with Master Li and Master Liu. I would like to ask this... uncle to make it convenient for me."
"Direct disciple?" When the man heard this, his eyes clearly lit up, and his attitude softened a bit. Then he looked at Zhang Xiaohu up and down and said, "Junior Brother Wen seems to be... younger than you..."
Before he finished speaking, a disciple next to him came over, lowered his head and said a few words in his ear. After hearing this, the man smiled unconsciously and said: "I see, I really don't know about this, Zhang Xiaohu, listen Junior Brother Wang said that you are really Junior Brother Wen's direct disciple. However, even if you are a direct disciple, this place is no longer the former Miao Miao Villa. If you don't have any credentials, the master still can't let you in. "
Zhang Xiaohu also looked as expected. He turned slightly to look at the Yixiang Peak disciples who were hiding somewhere. He reached out and took out a token from his arms and said with a smile, "Master, please check it."
I saw that it was a three-inch black sign with a simple pattern on the front and two strange big characters written on it, which is Piaomiao. On the back was the word "海", which was not the token of Wen Wenhai's direct disciple. which one?
When the man saw the token, he immediately showed respect. He took it carefully, looked at it carefully, and said with a smile: "It is indeed Junior Brother Wen's token. Junior Brother Zhang, my surname is Bai. Please call me Uncle Bai." That’s it, don’t be surprised. In the past few years, many disciples came to see Master Li, either for this or that matter. How could we not know their intentions? We have to do this?”
After speaking, he handed the token back to Zhang Xiaohu.
Zhang Xiaohu said with a smile: "No, no, Master Bai is so polite. All the masters and uncles are so upright and upright, guarding a pure land here alone, which makes my nephew and master admire you very much."
Master Bai smiled and didn't respond. He pointed to a disciple and said, "Master Zhang, I still have to be on duty here. This is... Master Zhou, let him take you to see Master Li."
Zhang Xiaohu nodded, cupped his hands and said, "Please do me a favor, Uncle Zhou."
That Master Zhou was missing an arm and only used his left hand to hold a simple knife. He smiled and said, "It's been a long time since I've seen our direct disciple of the Miao Miao Sect. You're welcome, Master Nephew Zhang. Please come with me."
Uncle Zhou took Zhang Xiaohu through a rugged mountain road and then up a mountain ridge. They saw a large mountain col. However, when Zhang Xiaohu saw the scene in the mountain col, he was stunned and couldn't help but Stopped.
Uncle Zhou, who was leading the way, saw him stop and said with a smile: "It seems that this is the first time for Mr. Zhang to come to our Piaomiao Villa."
Zhang Xiaohu was stunned for a long time, his eyes were a little moist, and he murmured: "Yes, Master Zhou, this is indeed the first time for this disciple to come here, and... and it is also the first time that I know that Piao Miao Villa is actually... so difficult."
It turns out that Piaomiao Villa is not like Huanxi Villa. They are just low thatched houses. There are even many houses simply built with trees. Viewed from Shanliang Mountain, even Guozhuang is Not as good as that, let alone Huanxi Villa.
Uncle Zhou understood what Zhang Xiaohu was referring to and said with a smile: "It's nothing. It's just that the brothers don't want to benefit from the favor of Chuanxiang Cult. The dwarves are three points, so they have to do everything by themselves. In this mountain col Just make something out of nothing.”
Create something out of nothing? Although it sounds easy to say, if you really do it, it will be extremely difficult.
