Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Seeing many monks pouring out of Gaorichang Temple, each armed with sticks and swords, blocking the mountain pass trail, and several monks whose cultivation level was difficult to distinguish, coming along the path towards the mountain pass. Both Zhao Ran and Pei Zhongze knew that this was a place where they could stay.  Can't stand it anymore.

    The two of them slowly retreated, using shrubs to cover their bodies, and then retreated for more than a mile into a small forest.

    Pei Zhongze frowned and said, "It's good now. We're stuck in the mountains. It seems we have to go back the way we came, or try from the northwest?"

    Zhao Ran did not respond. He was leaning under a tree, lowering his head and thinking.  After thinking about it, it seems that Pei Zhongze's suggestion is the most feasible at the moment. In any case, it is much more reliable than relying on force, not to mention that the two of them are really not strong.

    But now that we have arrived at the Kampot Pass, we are not far away from the mountainous area, and we can immediately escape the "place of misery" of Bayan Har Mountain. Looking back at this time is really frustrating and unacceptable.

    While he was thinking hard, Zhao Ran suddenly had an idea and said to Pei Zhongze: "Yes! Brother Pei, quickly, use your Zhuli sword light, let's peel the bark! Try to knead a longer rope, let's fall  Rope jump off the cliff!¡±

    Pei Zhongze was suddenly enlightened upon hearing this, and said "Wonderful", and soon began to cut.  He was responsible for cutting, while Zhao Ran sifted the bark, picked out those with long fibers and strong toughness, and kept knotting the ropes.

    More than an hour passed, and the rope Zhao Ran had knotted reached more than twenty feet.

    Pei Zhongze roughly visually measured the length of the rope and stopped Zhao Ran: "It's almost there." So the two people put away the rope and climbed towards the back mountain.  The top of the mountain had undulating heights and different back directions. The two chose a place where the Richang Temple could not be seen and was not too high. They hung the rope down and fixed one end of the rope on a rock.

    "It seems to be a little short of it. It doesn't reach the bottom. Five or six feet? Or seven or eight feet? Senior Brother Pei, do you think you can do it?"

    "That's almost it. This little height doesn't matter."

    Pei Zhongze did not climb the rope and jumped directly. After every few feet, he stretched out his hand and gently pulled on the rope to release most of the force of his fall. Then he continued to fall. After a while, he reached the bottom of the rope.  end.  He hung on the rope for a moment, then let go of the rope. He turned in the air and landed easily on the ground, then waved upward.

    Zhao Ran didn¡¯t have Pei Zhongze¡¯s ability, so he could only clumsily turn around and move down inch by inch on the rope.  If it were Zhao Ran in his previous life, he would have run out of strength halfway up the climb. In this world, he could still persevere.

    When he finally reached the bottom of the rope, he looked down and gasped, well, it was at least as high as four or five floors!  He looked at Pei Zhongze who was waiting below. Pei Zhongze moved his hands inward, signaling Zhao Ran to jump down.  Zhao Ran took a deep breath, let go of the rope with both hands, and fell directly.

    When he was about to fall to the ground, Zhao Ran felt a strong force coming from his back, knocking him away. When Zhao Ran landed, he felt as if he had fallen into a pile of cotton and could not feel any pain.  It all depends on Pei Zhongze's cultivation methods.

    Pei Zhongze shouted in a low voice: "Let's go!" He pulled up the lapel of Zhao Ran's clothes and led him out far away.

    This place is no longer within the viewing range of Gaorichang Temple, and the surrounding area is covered by hills, so it can be considered safe for the time being.  Out of caution, the two of them still ran eastwards for an hour before finding their way and turning around to head north.  There was no pause along the way, no matter how many hills they climbed over, how many old forests they passed through, how many creeks full of gravel they crossed, and how many ravines they crossed.  The stone hooks were in tatters, and the monk's shoes had several big holes in them. He was exhausted before he arrived outside a ruined temple.

    It was already evening, and the red clouds were flowing slowly on the top of the mountain in the distance. Zhao Ran was lying in the weeds on the slope, spitting out the sour water in his mouth, and gasping: "I can't do it anymore, Senior Brother Pei.  We two need to have a rest. I think this temple is good, so let¡¯s sleep here for two hours."

    This dilapidated temple has been in disrepair for a long time. There is a single ruined hall leaning against a mound no more than three feet high. There is a bare pole standing at the door. Half of the door has collapsed and is covered with cobwebs.  The temple walls have been beaten by wind and rain for unknown ages, exposing the earth and rocks inside. Only a few old locust trees around have dense branches and leaves, and a few unknown birds on the trees sing a few words from time to time, showing a trace of life.

    Pei Zhongze lay next to Zhao Ran and looked up at the ruined temple not far away. He looked at the wormwood half a man tall at the entrance of the temple, then turned his head and looked around. Seeing that there seemed to be no trace of people here, he clicked  He nodded and said, "I'll rest here tonight." After saying that, he got up first, walked carefully to the door of the temple, and gently poked the half-collapsed door with a bamboo stick., and the remaining half of the fan also shattered into pieces.

    Pushing aside the cobweb hanging at the door, Pei Zhongze stepped in, walked around inside, and then came out and waved to Zhao Ran.  Zhao Ran walked towards the ruined temple with difficulty, holding on to his sore and weak back. He didn't feel it when he was running for his life, but when he stopped for a moment while lying on the edge of the slope, he felt that his legs were shaking, and he couldn't stop walking.  I was stumbling awkwardly, and I was really exhausted.

    Entering the ruined temple, he sat down against the wall regardless, took a few breaths, and then began to look at the layout of the temple.  There is a clay statue arched on top of the half-torn Buddhist niche. The clay statue has no head, only half of the body is left sitting on the back, and half of the left arm is broken. It is impossible to tell which god and Buddha it is.

    Apart from that, there is nothing else in the temple.

    However, the floor is very clean. It is paved with stone bricks. There is not a trace of dust. There are no cobwebs or bird's nests on the wooden beams in the corners. It looks like it has just been cleaned.

    Zhao Ran immediately sat up alertly and said to Pei Zhongze: "Senior Brother Pei, there are residents in this temple. Look, it has just been cleaned!"

    "Junior brother Zhao, I just used a purifying talisman"

    "UhI see" Zhao Ran leaned back in the corner and asked again: "Brother Pei, your purification talisman is very good. In just a short time, the temple was clean. By the way, you have  If you don¡¯t have many, lend me two for later.¡±

    Pei Zhongze shook his head: "I took a lot with me when I went out last year, but I used them all. This is the last one."

    Zhao Ran was a little disappointed, but unwilling to give in, so he asked: "Can you draw some talismans for me to use when I go back? I haven't opened my bones yet, and I don't know when I can practice. The talismans are simpler, just like the formation disk.  It suits me better.¡±

    Pei Zhongze thought for a while and said: "I can go and get some for you, but my family is not good at this"

    Zhao Ran was surprised and said: "No way? A Taoist priest from the Qingyun Pavilion can't actually draw talismans? Well, Senior Brother Pei, I don't mean anything else, I'm just a little curious."

    Pei Zhongze smiled: "It doesn't matter. My family has specialized in Quanzhen Dharma for several generations, mainly focusing on inner elixirs, and is not very familiar with talismans."

    Zhao Ran said "Ah" and said: "It turns out that he is a senior fellow from Quanzhen Taoism. I am disrespectful and disrespectful. I don't know which sect he is from?"

    Pei Zhongze said: "It can't be said that we are from the Quanzhen Tao My ancestors once traveled to Luoyang, and later became a registered disciple of Fengxian Cave, and learned the inner elixir technique of the Qingjing Sect. However, the precepts of the Quanzhen Tao are very strict, and they do not advocate wives.  The ancestor did not dare to die because of this, so he did not enter the inner gate of Fengxian Cave."

    Zhao Ran praised: "Yes, if you should learn his skills, you should learn his skills. Do what you should do, be at ease with your heart, and be in harmony with the way of heaven"

    Pei Zhongze thought for a while and said: "That's what you say, but it's not necessarily the case. There have been many geniuses in my family for generations, but none of them can finally achieve enlightenment. The elders in the family once said that maybe it's because they don't have a clear mind and desire.  , you can¡¯t get real power.¡±

    Zhao Ran consoled him: "Everyone has his or her own fate. There are so many geniuses, how many people can prove it? Failure to prove it does not mean that the path is wrong, it may just be due to bad luck."

    Pei Zhongze sighed: "I hope so."

    Zhao Ran took out the barbecued meat from his fingers and shared some with Pei Zhongze. Because he was too tired, he stopped talking and took out the black ginseng pills and they swallowed them. He then fell asleep and Pei Zhongze closed his eyes.  repose.

    I don¡¯t know how long they slept, but they both opened their eyes at the same time. Pei Zhongze made a silent gesture to Zhao Ran, tiptoed to the door, and stared into the darkness outside the temple.
