Dragon Pattern Roll Set

As soon as Zhan Zhao jumped up the mountain, he saw a figure in front of him. It was not so much a figure as an afterimage, because the figure was rapidly becoming transparent and then disappeared.

Zhan Zhao let out a "tsk", he was already very fast, but that person's lightness kung fu was very high and he was too cunning, so he was a step too late.

When Zhan Zhao chased to the top of the mountain, looking around, the back of this mountain was a large logging forest, and the trees in the forest were all from the nearby villages, and they were very dense.

Zhan Zhao stood on the top of the mountain to identify carefully, but there were no people in sight, and the mountains and forests were high and the wind was strong, especially the sound of the wind blowing the sea of ​​trees, which completely covered up the human breath.

At this time, following the sounding arrow, Bai Yutang also arrived.

"Cat."

Zhan Zhao shrugged helplessly.

Bai Yutang also frowned, the other party seemed to be quite careful, and had already chosen a way out when he made a sneak attack.

Bai Yutang knew that Zhan Zhao was not reconciled, but no one could do anything about this situation, so he patted him on the shoulder.

Zhan Zhao frowned, whether this person is Lin Miao or not, he can't be mistaken for his vicious heart, if they hadn't happened to catch up today, they might really be attacked by him.Those two carriages are full of old people who are over sixty years old. If something happens, Uncle Xiaofu will be very sad.

Just at this time, someone went up the mountain again.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked back, and saw the right general running up.

Long Qiaoguang came up and asked, "What happened?"

Zhan Zhao briefly explained what happened just now.

Long Qiaoguang frowned, "So cruel?"

"Uncle Xiaohuo knows?" Zhan Zhao asked.

Long Qiaoguang shrugged, "Probably... Master asked me to watch."

"I don't know if it's Lin Miao who took the shot now." Zhan Zhao frowned, "Kaifeng City is so big, I don't know where he is hiding."

Hearing Zhan Zhao's words, Wu Yifu was slightly taken aback, and then subconsciously looked away...

The hill they are standing on at this time is not far from the hill with a small temple where Wu Yifu went to see the night scene last night. At a glance, they can still see the temple on the opposite hill. Considering the distance between the two mountains If Lin Miao really wanted to sneak attack, it would be so convenient.

Zhan Zhao frowned and lowered his head to think about it, but Bai Yutang noticed that Long Qiaoguang seemed hesitant to speak, so he asked, "Do you know something?"

When Zhan Zhao heard this, he raised his head and looked at Bai Yutang, and seeing him looking at Long Qiaoguang, he turned his face away too.

Long Qiaoguang tilted his head and bared his teeth - this, do you want to say it?Logically speaking, the master didn't stop him from speaking, but he came alone last night, so it's okay to say it?But if Lin Miao really did something bad, it would be beneficial to say it, would Master be angry?Or go back and ask him?

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang saw Long Qiaoguang scratching his ears and cheeks, a little speechless, this person may even be more verbose in thinking...

Bai Yutang said, "Just say what you know, and Uncle Misfortune won't let you come if there's anything you can't say."

Long Qiaoguang squinted his eyes at Bai Yutang, "Is that so..."

Zhan Zhao urged him, "Hurry up!"

General You had no choice but to tell what happened last night.

Zhan Zhao was taken aback for a moment, and turned his head at the same time as Bai Yutang, looking at the small temple in the distance.

After thinking about it, Zhan Zhao is about to pass.

Bai Yutang pulled him back.

Long Qiaoguang also said, "It's groundless, it's just an old man in the temple, what can you do with him if you go?"

"Who wants to do anything to him?" Zhan Zhao looked disgusted, "I'll just go and see what he looks like! Don't you want to go and see?"

Bai Yutang and Long Qiaoguang glanced at each other - um...well, at least they know what that kid looks like!

So, the three of them hurried down the mountain.

When I got to the bottom of the mountain, I saw a little girl with white hair strolling over slowly... It is better to say that she came here by floating than by walking.

Zhan Zhao was powerless, "Grandma, there are so many people in broad daylight, you will scare people by walking like this."

Bai Yutang and Long Qiaoguang also nodded in agreement - it looked like a little ghost floating in the distance, but fortunately there was no one on the road, otherwise they would have been scared to death.

Granny Heishui covered her mouth and said "hoo hoo" twice, "Just now Xiaoyou sent two carts of old men and old ladies here, let me see if there is any fun."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang breathed a sigh of relief, they were safely sent back to Kaifeng mansion by Tianzun, that's good.

"Have you caught the sneak attacker?" Granny Heishui looked around and asked Zhan Zhao.

Zhan Zhao shook his head helplessly, but pointed to the small temple in the distance, "Uncle Xiao Huo seems to know where Lin Miao is."

"Oh..." Granny Heishui nodded lightly, and a gleam of understanding flashed in those red eyes like glass stones. It was also difficult for Zhan Zhao and others to figure out the emotions and thoughts in her eyes, because The mother-in-law's eyes are a bit like snake eyes, and those are the eyes that are completely emotionless in the true sense.

"You guys want to go to the mountains?" Granny Heishui asked.

Zhan Zhao nodded.

"I'll go too." The mother-in-law seemed quite interested and was about to go forward.

Zhan Zhao ran up a few steps and walked beside her, quite puzzled, "Great aunt, aren't you going to sleep today?"

"Just woke up, the stars haven't woken up yet." Granny Heishui said, took out a small brocade box from her sleeve, opened it for Zhan Zhao to see, and saw Xingbai chain curled up into a disc, fast asleep .

Bai Yutang and Long Qiaoguang think about it, it's true. Snakes hibernate in winter. No wonder Granny Heishui sleeps for eight or nine hours a day recently. She occasionally goes out for a walk and yawns from time to time.

After walking forward for a while, Grandma Heishui suddenly reached out her hand to Bai Yutang beside her.

Bai Yutang was puzzled and looked at her.

The mother-in-law raised her face, glanced at his hand, and then at her own.

Bai Yutang had seen many times that Granny Heishui held Tianzun's hand while walking, although she thought it was a bit strange, but she looked like a child, so she also extended her hand.

Before touching Granny Heishui's hand, Bai Yutang felt a scorching internal energy.

On the side, Zhan Zhao reminded, "Be careful it's hot."

At the same time Zhan Zhao reminded, Bai Yutang had already transported the extremely cold internal force in his hands...

Holding Bai Yutang's hand, Granny Heishui smiled slightly, her feet were off the ground again, and she floated slowly.

No matter how Long Qiaoguang saw it, he felt that this mother-in-law was really weird.

Zhan Zhao also walked up a few steps, reached out to his mother-in-law, grabbed her other hand, and led her up the mountain with Bai Yutang.

The right general folded his arms and watched from behind, and saw that the ice and snow under Granny Heishui's feet had melted, and a clear watermark appeared on the way up the mountain.

After running a few steps forward, Long Qiaoguang walked up to Bai Yutang and asked Granny Heishui, "Grandmother, do you know Lin Miao too?"

Granny Heishui nodded, "I have a little impression, I have probably seen it a few times, when I was still a little kid, his face would turn black whenever the patient called him Xiao Sanshui, it was quite funny."

"You said you saw afterimages just now?" Granny Heishui asked Zhan Zhao.

"Well, but it disappeared soon." Zhan Zhao replied.

"It's really fast." Bai Yutang also nodded, he was only a little behind Zhan Zhao, but he didn't see that shadow.

"Thanks to your quickness, I was able to see that afterimage." Granny Heishui said quietly, "Lin Miao also knows this kind of light work?"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other—couldn't it be, there's a mystery in it?

The hill is not high, and everyone quickly reached the top of the hill.

At this moment, the gate of the mountain was open, and two young monks were clearing the snow at the gate. When they saw someone coming, they hurriedly beat Jishou.

Again, almost everyone in Kaifeng Mansion knew Zhan Zhao, and the two young monks were no exception, they all said hello to Zhan Zhao.

Zhan Zhao nodded, and asked the two of them, is there an old man surnamed Lin who often lives in the temple?

A young monk pointed to the back mountain and said, "I just saw Mr. Lin sitting on a rock in the back mountain in a daze."

Everyone left the two young monks and went to the back mountain.

The small temple is not big, and the road around the back is not far away... Walking through a narrow aisle, the back mountain with a wide view is in front of you, just as the little monk said... At this time, on the rocks of the back mountain, sitting with his back to everyone With an old man.

Seen from the back, this person was tall and thin, with long gray hair swaying gently with the wind.

The old man held a broken bow in his hand, staring at the farmland in the distance, in a daze.

Zhan Zhao and the others didn't deliberately hide their aura, and their voices were not soft when they stepped on the snow, but the old man didn't turn his head at all, and just looked at the distance by himself.

At this time, what attracted Zhan Zhao and the others' attention was the broken bow in the old man's hand... This bow seemed to have been burned by fire, and it was so dilapidated that it felt like it would break if pulled.

Zhan Zhao subconsciously looked at Granny Heishui.

Granny Heishui's gaze also stayed on the broken bow, and her eyes narrowed slightly, thoughtfully.

"Ahem." Long Qiaoguang coughed.

After a long time, I heard an old voice, "You still come out and walk in such a cold day? Are you really old and can't sleep?"

Granny Heishui covered her mouth lightly and laughed, "Hmm."

Both Bai Yutang and Long Qiaoguang raised their eyebrows—yo?This time it's not a "huh huh" laugh, but a "huh huh".

Finally, the old man stood up, picked up a crutch by his feet, leaned on it, and slowly turned around to look at the people behind him.

Zhan Zhao frowned slightly—a crutch?

Both Bai Yutang and Long Qiaoguang were also surprised—the one in front of them was an elderly man with wrinkles all over his face, his eyes were old and cloudy, and his skin was pale and gray.

Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang, and Long Qiaoguang were all curious about this legendary "Lin Miao", and wanted to remember his appearance.But face to face at this time, the impression of him is only two words - old!Except for the obvious traces of time, the old man's face, eyes, mouth corners, and expression... can't see any emotions, old!Feeling older than your actual age.

"Little Sanshui." Granny Heishui said, "You've become a third-year-old Sanshui."

Lin Miao looked at Granny Heishui for a long time, smiled, and said lightly, "You really are a snake demon..."

Zhan Zhao frowned.

Granny Heishui was not annoyed, she waved her hand at Zhan Zhao, signaling him not to care, it seemed that there was some story behind this "snake demon" title.

Granny Heishui yawned again, "Xiao Sanshui, you didn't piss off the sick man, but you should piss him off."

Lin Miao couldn't help laughing when she heard this, "Yeah, why is he healed?"

"He's fine...that means it's useless to be mad at him." Zhan Zhao looked at Lin Miao, "Are you the one who attacked the convoy on the official road just now?"

Lin Miao smiled faintly, "Master Zhan, why did you say that? This old man is just a dying old man who even walks with a cane. How can he attack a convoy?"

Zhan Zhao frowned slightly.

Because when Lin Miao said these few words, his inner strength was frighteningly high.

"Did you take part in revenge in the case of the Jin family?" Zhan Zhao asked him, "You taught Jin Liang and the others how to use archery?"

The old man walked back slowly on crutches, and said, "Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and retribution will come sooner or later."

Granny Heishui walked to the rock where the old man was sitting just now, sat down too, and looked into the distance, "Oh, the scenery is nice."

The old man walked up to Zhan Zhao and the others, and said, "There are still many unsolved unsolved cases like the Jin family in this world. Mr. Zhan is so free, why not solve more cases."

Everyone listened to Lin Miao's voice in a narrow tone. That way, he was not someone who was dazzled by hatred.

Long Qiaoguang thought for a while, leaned over and asked him, "Oh, let me tell you."

The old man took a look at Long Qiaoguang, and his eyes fell on the heavy bow he was carrying, then raised his eyes, and looked at Long Qiaoguang again, frowning slightly, with a puzzled look in his eyes.

Seeing his expression, Granny Heishui covered her mouth and suppressed a smile again.

The corners of Long Qiaoguang's mouth twitched, and the old man's expression was clearly saying - what's wrong with You Lian that she took a fancy to such an apprentice?

Just as Lin Miao was about to enter the mountain gate and return to the temple, Bai Yutang suddenly asked, "Are you dying?"

Zhan Zhao tugged at Bai Yutang's sleeve, which meant - rat, you can't do this.

But Bai Yutang was obviously not joking, but was seriously stating a fact.

Granny Heishui raised her head and looked at Lin Miao.

Lin Miao finally stopped and turned to Bai Yutang, "How do you know?"

Bai Yutang said, "You look older than your actual age, but your internal strength is very high. My master said that there are several hurdles in internal strength. After reaching a certain level, if you can pass it, you will live or die. The older you are, the more internal strength you have. Tall people need to be younger and younger to live longer. If the internal strength is higher but the person is getting older, it means that Kung Fu has been practiced to the limit and can no longer be practiced. If you practice again, you will die very quickly, and your eyes will no longer be bright. ... within half a year, you will die."

Both Zhan Zhao and Long Qiaoguang couldn't help frowning - no wonder, they looked so old.

At the same time, Zhan Zhao and Long Qiaoguang suddenly remembered that day when Wu Yifu asked Jin Liang if Lin Miao was "wrinkled", and then said meaningfully, "Xiao Sanshui is still alive", the look in his eyes at that time, There were joys and sorrows, and everyone felt that he might have thought of the past and felt a little emotional.But thinking about it now... Wu Yifu should have known about it at that time, Lin Miao's life is not long.

Lin Miao smiled, "Tianzun is worthy of being brought up by the Silver Demon King, and he is so cruel to his apprentice."

Both Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang frowned - what?

The old man found a stone and sat down, and said, "Neither Wusha nor Yin Hou would tell his successors about this method. What will happen after knowing that I taught you this?"

Zhan Zhao and Long Qiaoguang's hearts moved -- that's right!Tianzun and the others are old, which is equivalent to telling Bai Yutang a way to judge when they will die...

How should I put it, the elders are getting older, and the younger generations are of course mentally prepared.But knowing that that day will come sooner or later, juniors usually don't think about these things too much.If the elder can be judged more than half a year before his death, it is tantamount to counting the days and waiting with him to die.But if you don't know this method at all, then suddenly one day, the old man will leave...

These two ways of parting, which one to choose?Obviously, Tianzun helped Bai Yutang choose the first one, while Yinhou and the others chose the second one for Zhan Zhao and the others.

Two different choices, two different ways of caring, the result is that Bai Yutang is calm and unrestrained, and Zhan Zhao is carefree.

This is a subtle difference, what Tianzun conveyed to Bai Yutang is - don't escape!And what Yin Hou conveyed to Zhan Zhao was—to escape for a while, it's okay.

However, the reality is the opposite. Tianzun chooses to escape in his own life, while Yinhou chooses to face it. Both of their lives are not smooth, and each has its own sorrows.It can be seen that the two also deeply know where their misery comes from, so when raising their children, they deliberately taught them how not to repeat their own mistakes, so as to prevent them from encountering the same misfortune.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were suddenly touched by Lin Miao's understatement. They both felt lucky at the same time—they were brought up with care. This is a deep bond that will last a lifetime. , happened in the past and determines the future.Their current strength is not so much from blood, but rather from this love.

Lin Miao turned her face slowly, glanced at Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang, and Long Qiaoguang, and finally looked at the fertile fields in the distance, and said in a voice without warmth, "Those who take away this bond are unforgivable."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang frowned slightly, that's why Lin Miao hated Wu Yifu so much, and...he would avenge the two children of the Jin family, which seemed to be the reason.

"Whoever cured him, see if you can find a way to cure me." Lin Miao said, entering the mountain gate, leaving only one sentence, "Otherwise, I will make a break with him before I die."

After the voice fell, there was a "bang", and the mountain gate was also closed.

This heavy closing sound woke up Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang who were immersed in thinking. They both heard Lin Miao's last words, so... they turned their heads together, and looked dumbfounded behind with their arms crossed. Long Qiaoguang.

The general on the right shook his head with a "tsk tsk" and sighed, "Oh, this is difficult."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang didn't expect such a result after meeting Lin Miao, so they both went to see Granny Heishui.

But at this time, Granny Heishui was touching her chin lightly and said to herself, "Oh, it seems that it wasn't Xiao Sanshui who attacked the convoy. Someone wants to fish in troubled waters."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang also felt the same way—indeed!

"That's why I only let my disciples take a look at the sick package, but I didn't come." Granny Heishui floated faintly, "It's kind of interesting."

……

At this time, in the shooting range.

Chen Xing'er ran back from changing the hand warmer for Wu Yifu, but saw that the recliner was empty, and looked around - no one!

At this time, Crescent Moon also came running, holding a tea pot in her hand.

"Where are people?" Chen Xing'er asked while holding the stove.

Yue Ya'er didn't understand, "Huh? Just now you said you want to drink Longjing and asked me to buy it."

The two of them searched for Wu Yifu throughout the barracks, but the sick scholar was nowhere to be found, and the soldiers in the barracks didn't know where he had gone.

Bai Yutang, Zhan Zhao and Long Qiaoguang rushed down the mountain together with Granny Heishui. As soon as they got near the city gate, they felt a biting cold wind...

The snowflakes that had already stopped suddenly floated up again.

Bai Yutang reached out to catch a snowflake and said, "My mother is here."

At the same time, Zhan Zhao also raised his face, and saw a familiar figure appearing on the city gate in the distance, and nodded, "My mother is here too."
