Remembrance of the Jade Tiger - Continuation of the TV series Hua Qiangu

?The two left the town early the next morning and walked in the peach blossom forest. "Master, why don't we go up with the sword?" "I want to explore the surrounding environment, and don't use the sword unless it is absolutely necessary." Bai Zihua seemed to remember something: "By the way, Xiao Gu, when we first came Why did you come here? Just because you saw this peach forest?" Hua Qiangu tilted her head and thought for a while: "No, it was when we passed by here that I felt the fragrant blood beads in my hand tremble slightly , Later I flew over to verify that it was indeed the case, and then I saw this peach forest." "What? You felt the vibration of the fragrant blood beads? What happened after that?" "It was fine after that, never again I felt something strange. What's the matter?" Bai Zihua frowned slightly, vaguely feeling the vibration of the fragrant blood bead, maybe he felt something related to Hua Qiangu, maybe it was a divine object or a divine weapon, but why did he say something later? Can't feel it?He shook his head: "It's nothing, maybe it's just a coincidence. Zhangjialing is beyond this peach forest. There are dozens of peaks in this large mountain range. Lingyun Peak is located in the middle. It is not only the tallest and steepest mountain, but also the largest. Here you can reach the foot of Lingyun Peak by crossing two ridges and crossing two valleys." Hua Qiangu thought that he was going to climb mountains and swim to see the scenery anyway, so he followed Bai Zihua along the mountain road.Zhangjialing belongs to Zhangjia Town, and it is a very rich place. The mountains have been transformed into terraced fields for crops or fruit forests. There are scattered farmers at the foot of the mountain and halfway up the mountain.Standing on the ridge, Hua Qiangu looked at the scenery below, and shouted happily: "Master, look at that area is a pear forest. Wow, look at a large terraced field over there!" Bai Zihua pointed to the front: "Look at that We will reach the highest mountain after crossing this valley and that mountain." Hua Qiangu saw that the mountain Bai Zihua pointed to was almost straight up and down from this side, soaring into the sky, all she saw were rocks The cliff, "Wow, Lingyun Peak, well-deserved of its reputation, is really steep and high! Is this how we climb up?" "Everything has two sides. This mountain is so steep on one side, and the other side should be gentler and easier to climb. Climb. Let's go over there and walk around the valley to have a look."

It took the two of them an hour to reach the other side of Lingyun Peak. Sure enough, not only was the mountain much gentler, but the mountain was also lush with wild flowers, weeds and trees. "Master, your guess is really accurate! Although there is no mountain road here, it is much easier than the precipitous cliffs over there. Let's go." The master and apprentice looked for an easy terrain to climb up, Hua Qiangu Watching the scenery while climbing, while Bai Zihua checked the terrain and watched the plants, bird and livestock droppings on the ground, etc.The terrain gets steeper as you go up, and the difficulty of climbing becomes more and more difficult. When encountering difficult places to climb, a big hand always appears in front of Hua Qiangu in time. She holds it gently, feeling the warmth and strength.At noon, the two had reached the middle of the mountain, and Bai Zihua found a big rock and sat down: "Are you tired? Let's have a rest." Hua Qiangu sat down while wiping his sweat, and Bai Zihua took out the water bag that he brought with him Handed it to Hua Qiangu, Hua Qiangu drank a few mouthfuls, finally no longer thirsty, but immediately felt hungry, so he let out a grunt, and Bai Zihua took out another paper bag Handed it to her: "Eat." Hua Qiangu handed the water bag to Bai Zihua and took the paper bag: "What is this? Steamed buns! There are still steamed stuffed buns!" She immediately began to eat with a smile on her face, not forgetting to be humble to Bai Zihua , "Master is not hungry, you can eat." Bai Zihua drank two sips of water, and began to look left and right to check the situation on the ground. "Master, didn't you say that there are very ferocious beasts on Lingyun Peak? What should we do if we encounter them?" Just as he was talking, an eagle suddenly jumped down from the sky, and quickly caught one that was lying on the hillside. The wild rabbit gnawing grass on the grass flapped its wings and flew into the air again, which only happened between lightning and flint. “The difference between humans and animals is that humans can find ways to survive in many environments, while animals—even ferocious beasts, each animal has its most suitable and unfavorable environments. It is easy to hunt food on the grassland, but it is almost impossible to hunt in the bushes and woods." Bai Zihua patiently explained to Hua Qiangu.Hua Qiangu nodded: "That is to say, if you want to avoid eagles, you should hide in bushes or woods. Then---what if you encounter a wolf?" "Wolves can't climb trees." "Yes, Then hide in a tree! What if you encounter a tiger or a leopard that can climb trees?" "They can't swim, so they can hide underwater." Hua Qiangu's expression darkened: "Oh, but, I can't yet Swimming, I don’t even know how to breathe with turtles.” After she finished speaking, she tugged on Bai Zihua’s sleeves: “Master, when can you teach the little bone tortoise to breathe? Look, if I don’t know how to use such a useful thing, I will meet a tiger. What can the lion do?" Bai Zihua said sternly, "Don't you still have the Duan Nian Sword? The kung fu and spells taught you can't even be dealt with by ordinary lions and tigers? But if you want to learn the tortoise breathing exercise, the master can teach you. You are weak, I'm afraid you won't be able to stand the cold, how about this, Master will teach you when we return to Huagu Peak when the weather gets hot in summer." "That's great, Master, it's a deal!" After Hua Qiangu stretched out his words Putting out the little finger of his right hand, Bai Zihua looked at her dotingly, then also stretched out the little finger of his right hand, hooked her finger and pulled it.

Compared with other peaks, the peak of Lingyun Peak is so strange that the two of them were surprised when they reached the top of Lingyun Peak.I saw that the top of Lingyun Peak seemed to have been hacked from the tip and then chopped off more than half of it flatly, forming a huge platform and a barrier like a barrier more than ten feet high. The big platform was covered with weeds and wild flowers. Hua Qiangu said excitedly: "Wow, the peak here is completely different from Huagu Peak. Could this be an alpine grassland? It's so big!" She started running on the grass, and suddenly a gray horse The wolf sprang out from nowhere, it had a strong body, slender limbs, red eyes, a long mouth, and a blood-red tongue, and walked towards Hua Qiangu step by step.Hua Qiangu was startled, and hurriedly stopped, a little flustered, stepped back step by step, looked left and right: "By the way, trees, trees." But here there are only grasses and flowers, or soil and stones, Where is the shadow of the tree? With a cry, Duannian sword was withdrawn from his hand, and when the wolf leaped towards her, the sword edge of Changhong Piercing Sun swept across the wolf's waist and abdomen, only to see that the wolf turned into golden dots and disappeared in an instant after being hit by the sword up. "Xiaogu." Bai Zihua called softly and jumped to Hua Qiangu's side: "This is an illusion. We traveled all the way just now. There are occasional footprints and feces of large animals such as bison, wolf and leopard on other peaks. Only this Lingyun Peak has only hares. Traces of small animals such as beavers." "Master, you were looking at the ground all the way to observe this?!" Bai Zihua nodded and said, "Be careful." "But why are you creating these illusions?" "Maybe it's In order to scare the mortals who occasionally dare to climb up, this mountain is weird, and there must be people who practice it." "That's an immortal cultivator like us!" "Not necessarily, and the monsters don't know."

Zhang Ruitong, who watched this situation in front of the bronze mirror, looked at Zhang Ruiqiu suspiciously: "Brother, who are they?" Zhang Ruiqiu said with concentration: "This is the Changliu sword technique, and they should be members of the Changliu Immortal School." "Long stay?!" Zhang Ruitong stared at Bai Zihua on the screen in a daze, and blushed for a while and said shyly, "Brother, I've decided, it's him!" Zhang Ruiqiu frowned.

Hua Qiangu looked left and right: "But this is a dead end, there is no road and no house?" Bai Zihua pointed at the barrier: "Look at the mountain wall over there." At the same time twenty or thirty vicious wolves appeared, outflanking the two of them, Bai Zihua protected Hua Qiangu behind him, watching their actions calmly.Before they approached and had no time to step down, they suddenly soared into the air, turned around in a circle, waved their hands, a huge golden halo flashed, and the phantom dissipated like smoke.Bai Zihua gathered his true energy and said word by word: "Who is pretending to be a ghost here, come out and talk!" There is only the whistling of the wind everywhere, and there is no other movement.

Zhang Ruiqiu turned pale and covered his chest. "Brother, are you okay?" Zhang Ruitong asked with concern, Zhang Ruiqiu shook his head: "I'm fine. Bai Zihua, this person's cultivation level is unfathomable, we have to prepare." "Okay!" Zhang Ruitong nodded solemnly .

Bai Zihua and Hua Qiangu continued to walk towards the stone wall, and suddenly Hua Qiangu called out: "Master, look, the giant flower!" It turned out that there was a peony bush near the stone wall, and there were twenty or thirty peonies in the middle, all of which were like thousands of flowers. The giant flower that I got was the same size, the stems were as tall as a person, and the flowers were as big as lotus flowers with different colors.Hua Qiangu looked at the giant peony flowers and squatted down to look at the ordinary peony flowers, compared them for a while and said: "Master, you are right, these are normal peony flowers, and the giant flowers are the same as the ordinary ones except for their size. Is it nourished by some kind of spiritual energy." Standing in the position of the giant flower, Bai Zihua looked up and saw a big rock protruding from the top of the stone wall directly above, exchanged glances with Hua Qiangu, and the two of them took off with their swords and flew onto the rock .There is a small stele next to the rock, on which the words "Wangtianyan" are engraved indistinctly, and the words are almost worn out due to the age.The two looked around the rock and there was nothing unusual. Hua Qiangu stood on the top and looked at the scenery below, then stretched out his hand and shook: "This is the highest place in Zhangjialing, I think I can reach the sky soon." It's much higher than here." Bai Zihua blurted out. "The Palace of Heartlessness? Where is the Palace of Heartlessness?" Hua Qiangu wondered. "It's nothing, the place where Master used to live. Let's go." Bai Zihua's expression was indifferent, and the sadness in his eyes disappeared.The two walked down the rock, and suddenly found a mountain road along the rock, spiraling down to the other side of Lingyun Peak, they walked down the mountain road, but Hua Qiangu murmured: "Why is there a mountain road here suddenly? There is an additional flat mountain road, and this road leads to the side of Lingyun Peak's cliff? What can there be?" The two walked for a while, but found that the end of the road turned out to be a huge mansion, which seemed to be Half embedded in the cliff.

The villa is an old Shimen stone wall, on which there is a relatively new wooden plaque, which reads "Qiutong Mountain Villa". Bai Zihua felt something strange, stretched out his hand and waved slowly on the wooden plaque, and the wooden plaque became translucent. , showing the large characters carved on the stone behind it: "Xuanmeng Villa", he received the spell, and the wooden plaque was restored to its original state.The two of them walked to the stone gate, the stone gate rumbled loudly and opened to both sides, Hua Qiangu was about to enter, but was pulled behind by Bai Zihua: "Xiaogu, follow me, be careful." "Okay." Hua Qiangu said cautiously.
