It was early spring, and the chill had yet to subside. The wildflowers by the roadside had already sprouted new yellow. Qing Ku rode on a donkey, drinking as he walked. He had a feeling of being out of this world, but he also had a free and easy bearing. If it weren't for Ying Feiyang, who was carrying a dusty bag on his back, people would believe that he was an immortal traveling.
Qing Ku raised his head again, but there was no more wine. He shook the bottle and collected the last few drops. He said unhappily, "Tianming, there's no more wine. Give me another jug."
Ying Feiyang spread out his hands. "There's no more. Uncle Mu gave you ten jugs of wine. I wanted to keep them for you to drink slowly on the road, but you've finished them in less than two days. Are you a reincarnation of a wine rat?"
Qing Ku blew his beard. "How disrespectful. I'm a wine immortal. Also, don't fool your master. You have another bottle in your bag. Don't think I don't know."
Ying Feiyang was stunned. "That was given to me by the troublemaker. You want it too?"
At the mention of the wine, Ying Feiyang couldn't help but think of Mu Xiaomei pitifully tugging at his clothes before he left two days ago. "Brother Tianming, please don't go. Xiaomei will be good in the future and won't make you angry.
Ying Feiyang caressed her head lovingly. "Xiaomei, listen to me. It's not like I'm not coming back. Maybe I'll come back after a few months."
After much persuasion, Mu Xiaomei finally let go of his hand. Mu Xiaomei mysteriously took out a bottle of wine from her jacket and gave it to Ying Feiyang. She said, "Brother Tianming, I left this bottle for you. Hide it well and don't let your drunkard master see it."
Ying Feiyang shook his head. "No need. I don't like drinking."
Unexpectedly, Mu Xiaomei said innocently, "If you don't like it, you can keep it. Who knows, you might like it after a few years. My father always said that wine is like us girls. It might still be immature now and not attractive, but after a few years, it will become intoxicating."
Ying Feiyang was startled. He was afraid that she would say something shocking again, so he hurriedly accepted the wine.
"Hey hey, I just want a bottle of wine from you. Is there a need to think for so long? Could it be that you're reluctant to let Master drink the love wine that I gave you? "The bitter voice pulled Ying Feiyang out of his memories.
Ying Feiyang glanced at him, then waved his hand and threw the wine at him. "Drink it if you want, as long as you don't regret it."
Qing Ku bit the cork off the bottle and said vaguely, "I only regret when I have no more wine to drink." With that said, he gulped down the bottle.
"Pfft!!" Qing Ku spat out a mouthful of wine and said angrily, "Is this wine made with Yellow Lotus Water? Why is it so bitter!! "
Ying Feiyang recalled Mu Xiaomei's reluctant expression and sweet smile, and sighed helplessly. "As I expected. Master, you still don't understand a troublemaker. “
Give me some water. I need to rinse my mouth. "Qing Ku shouted.
"There's no more. I've finished the water. Just bear with it for a while."
"There's a tea shop at the bend in the mountain up ahead. Hurry up." Qing Ku urged the donkey forward impatiently.
"Where would there be a tea shop in this barren mountain?" Ying Feiyang thought to himself. Who knew that there would be a tea shop at the side of the valley after turning around the bend in the mountain.
The tea shop was just a thatched shed. It was extremely simple and crude. When the wind blew, the slender thatch on the roof flew into the air. Ying Feiyang suddenly felt inexplicably uneasy. At this moment, Qing Ku stopped the donkey and squinted. "So someone has been waiting for us. Let's go."
There was an old man brewing tea in the tea shop. His head was lowered, and his face could not be seen clearly. He was using a green stick to light a fire. The other person was dressed like a martial artist. He was peeling edamame and seemed to be waiting for someone. Ying Feiyang only knew that the person Qing Ku was talking about was him, so he looked at him a few more times. However, he did not find anything special about him.
"Innkeeper, boil two bowls of tea first." Ying Feiyang called out. He picked up a clean table and sat down with Qing Ku.
The innkeeper responded, but did not get up to serve them. He continued to light the fire. Not long after, two bowls of tea were served.
Ying Feiyang had been thirsty for a long time, but the tea was still hot. He could only take small sips. As soon as it entered his mouth, he felt the bitterness. He frowned and said, "Innkeeper, this tea of yours is a little too careless. Even if you don't put dates and custard, you can't omit onions, ginger, and salt. But you only put water and tea leaves. What kind of drinking method is this?"
Qing Ku also took a sip and said, "It's alright. The taste is not bad. You're lucky to be able to drink this tea."
At this moment, Ying Feiyang felt that the bitter tea he had just drunk was now giving off a sweet fragrance. Although it was not as sweet and delicious as the tea he was used to drinking, it had a different taste. The old man took a bowl and poured some tea for himself. He took a sip and said stiffly, "It really is wrong. Try again."
Ying Feiyang saw that he was old and could not bear to bully him. He said, "Fine, fine. This is fine. You don't have to trouble yourself anymore."
However, the old man acted as if he did not hear it and walked towards the fire.
Qing Ku shook his head and said, "Let him be. People like him are naturally a little crazy."
At this moment, the sound of hooves could be heard from outside. Amidst a series of shouts, two riders galloped in. The Jianghu man in the shed saw their faces clearly and stood up. He shouted, "Brother Liu San, Brother Peng, come and sit here."
The newcomers were also Jianghu men. They jumped off their horses nimbly and showed their excellent horsemanship. They said, "Zhang Laoqi, we're late. Don't blame us."
Zhang Laoqi stood up to welcome them and said, "How could I dare to blame you? This village inn does not have anything to entertain the older brothers. Please don't blame this younger brother for being shabby. Please sit down and rest. When we reach Chengdu, this younger brother will set up a table to entertain the older brothers."
The man called Brother Liu San waved his hand and entered the tea shed. He said, "We're brothers, there's no need to say such things. Moreover, Chengdu is going to be in chaos. Who knows when the Northern Dragon Sky will arrive …" Seeing that Qing Ku and Ying Feiyang were among them, the man's voice suddenly stopped. Although the people of Jianghu knew about demons and ghosts, they usually did not talk about it in front of ordinary people. This was also the rule of Jianghu for thousands of years, so he stopped talking.
However, when Boss Peng saw Qing Ku's appearance, he felt that he had an extraordinary temperament and seemed to be a person of Jianghu. He cupped his hands and said, "Immortal, how should I address you and where do you cultivate?"
Qing Ku smiled and said, "I'm not an immortal. I'm Qing Ku. I used to live in Qinghe Town in the center of Sichuan. Seeing that a storm is coming, I was looking for a big tree to take shelter from it."
Boss Peng could tell that Qing Ku was also a person of Jianghu, so he didn't hide anything. He said, "So it's Daoist Qing Ku. I've heard a lot about you. I'm Thunder Breaking Blade Peng Sihai. Beside me are my brothers Ling Nan Fast Sword Liu Wentong and Sky Yang Palm Zhang Zhibin. If you don't mind, why don't you come and sit with us and give us some advice?"
Qing Ku shook his head and said, "I's body is also in the fog. How can I give advice to others? If I really have to say, it's just one sentence: leave this place of trouble as soon as possible."
Peng Sihai and the other two looked unhappy, but finally said, "If that's the case, we won't force you. Daoist, please enjoy your tea."
Then the three of them sat at a table and chatted while eating some dishes. However, Ying Feiyang's eyes and ears were sharp. Every detail of their conversation entered Ying Feiyang's ears. After listening for a while, Ying Feiyang understood their intentions. It turned out that when a disaster was coming, some animals would run away, but there would be jackals and vultures that would gather, waiting for a bite of blood. The three of them gathered in the center of Sichuan with the mentality of taking advantage of the chaos. No wonder Qing Ku told them to leave early to make them unhappy.
After the three of them chatted for a while, the topic changed to the situation in Sichuan. Liu Wentong said, "These people who practice the Congenital Dao are really fearful like tigers. They really don't have the courage to practice the Heavenly Dao. They don't have the heroic spirit that we martial artists have. This is a good opportunity to fish in troubled waters, but they all ran away to take refuge."
This was obviously a criticism of Qing Ku. Ying Feiyang found it funny, but he closed his mouth and drank his tea expressionlessly. Peng Sihai was a cautious person. He secretly glanced in Qing Ku's direction and stopped Liu Wentong from speaking without thinking. He said, "Don't talk about other things. Seventh Brother Zhang, you asked us to come here. Do you have any good work?"
"It's not good work, but it's an appetizer before the main course. Do you know that Old Demon Bitter Bamboo killed a disciple of the Spring and Autumn Sword Tower yesterday?" Hearing this, Ying Feiyang's spirits rose. There had been no news of Old Demon Bitter Bamboo ever since he chased after the Bi couple. Ying Feiyang wanted to find out if the Bi couple was safe, but he didn't know. He didn't expect to find some clues here.
"Tsk, this Old Demon Bitter Bamboo is quite bold. He dares to provoke the people of the Spring and Autumn Sword Tower. Seventh Brother, you mean to attack the old demon, but he's not weak. Even if we work together, we might not be able to take advantage of him."
"Brother Peng, don't worry. Listen to me carefully. The day before yesterday, when I came back from work, I saw a man and a woman fighting together with Old Demon Bitter Bamboo. Old Demon Bitter Bamboo is strong, but the two demons aren't much weaker. After fighting for a while, all three of them were injured. I was thinking of killing them while they were down." “
Peng Sihai frowned and said, "Seventh Brother, you're too rash. When tigers and wolves see injuries, they can still hurt people. "
Zhang Zhibin continued, "That's true. Just as I was about to attack, a figure beat me to it. It was a disciple of the Spring and Autumn Sword Tower. He was stronger than me, but he didn't take advantage of the situation. Instead, the man and woman took advantage of his disruption to escape. Old Demon Bitter Bamboo was worried about that person's identity in the Spring and Autumn Sword Tower. Seeing that the two demons had escaped, and that disciple was pressuring him, he immediately became violent and killed that disciple on the spot!"
Hearing this, Ying Feiyang was first shocked, then comforted. He thought to himself, "The man and woman must be the Bi couple. It seems they've shaken off Old Demon Bitter Bamboo."
Peng Sihai and Liu Wentong's expressions changed. Peng Sihai said, "This old demon is too fierce. He actually dared to attack. Isn't he afraid of endless trouble? Speaking of which, it's good that you didn't attack. Otherwise, you'd be the unlucky one."
Zhang Zhibin sighed, "Isn't that right? I thought that I alone wouldn't be enough, so I invited my two brothers. Now that Old Demon Bitter Bamboo is injured, he can't withstand our joint attack. If we can kill him, our reputation will definitely rise. Secondly, we can sell a favor to the Spring and Autumn Sword Tower. Thirdly, the Spring and Autumn Sword Tower disciple's cultivation method was stolen by Old Demon Bitter Bamboo. If we can find it …" Zhang Zhibin paused and glanced at Qing Ku. Qing Ku's expression was normal, as if he didn't hear anything.
Peng Sihai and Liu Wentong's eyes lit up. Peng Sihai was still weighing the pros and cons. He said, "This … It's a big taboo to hide another sect's cultivation method. If the people from the Spring and Autumn Sword Tower find out, I'm afraid it'll be troublesome.
Liu Wentong said, "What's there to be afraid of? In any case, I've long disliked the Spring and Autumn Sword Tower's disciples. Each and every one of them has their eyes set higher than the sky. They're just relying on the prestige of their Sect Master, Yue Tianqiong. They don't even think about it. No matter how powerful the Sword Emperor, Yue Tianqiong, is, he still lost to …"
Before Liu Wentong could finish speaking, there was a sudden sound of wind breaking. A beam of black light shot into the tent from outside, heading straight for Liu Wentong's face. The rest of Liu Wentong's words turned into a miserable howl. He spat out two teeth along with blood.
