Little Hai Ren's life had not changed much since he got the Universe Treasure Bag and the Chaos Sutra. He only had toys to play with and books to learn ancient Chinese characters when he was free. Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was almost time for the Fall Quarter Examinations. Nan Weifeng brought his second son, Nan Haiyi, and his brother-in-law, who had come from the capital to pick him up, into the capital. There were only three people left in the family, Mrs. Liu and Little Hairen's sister, Nanping.
On this day, after Little Hai Ren finished his mother's homework, he went to the woods outside the town to gather firewood as usual. When he passed by Second Uncle Niu's shabby clinic, he saw the three Taoist priests he met last time talking to Second Uncle Niu.
Because these Taoist priests had left a deep impression on Little Hai Ren, and out of curiosity, Little Hai Ren wanted to hear what they were talking about. He happened to see Niu Yun, the son of Second Uncle Niu, playing with clay figurines under the south window of the medical hall. Little Hai Ren walked over and said to Niu Yun,"Little brother Xiao Yun, I just learned how to pinch little rabbits recently. Let's play together.”After saying that, Little Hai Ren brought Niu Yun to the south window of the medical hall to play. While playing with Niu Yun, Little Hai Ren tilted his ears and listened. He heard the blood-red Taoist priest say,"Niu Tianxing, you hid in Clear Spring Town for fifteen years and thought that your sect couldn't find you. Don't forget that once you enter the Emotional Severing Sect, you can only destroy the sect mercilessly. I asked you to go down the mountain to train, but you're here to settle down and forget about your home. It seems that you're really going to betray your sect.”
Second Uncle Niu said," Senior Brother Huo Yunzi, I don't really want to betray the sect. It's just that Yun 'er's mother was paralyzed when she tried to save my life. Moreover, she gave birth to Yun' er for me. I can't do anything treacherous. I can't return to the sect with you for the time being.”
"You'd better go and explain these things to him," Huo Yunzi said. I heard from the townspeople that a few years ago, you hosted a ceremony to capture the Zhou Dynasty for a family surnamed Nan. At that time, the sloppy Daoist and the Divine Monk Desireless came.”
Second Uncle Niu said," There was such a thing. It happened five years ago."”
"I heard that the Sloppy Daoist left a medicinal pill for that child in the end. Is that true?" Huo Yunzi asked.”
Second Uncle Niu said," Senior Brother, I'm not too sure about that. I only remember that the Taoist priest left behind a jade bottle at that time. I don't know what was inside the jade bottle."”
Huo Yunzi's eyes lit up. He glanced at the other two Taoist priests and said,""Junior apprentice-brother Heavenstar, it's not that I don't care about your feelings, but I can't disobey your master's orders. But seeing that you're indeed in trouble, I'll make an exception for you for another ten years. But you have to tell me where the family with the surname Nan is.”
Second Uncle Niu thanked him profusely after hearing this. However, when he heard Huo Yunzi ask where Nan Weifeng's family lived, he couldn't help but shiver. According to his understanding of Huo Yunzi, he knew that the Nan family would definitely suffer.
How could he pass the news to the Nan family without making Huo Yunzi and the other two suspicious? Niu Tianxing (Second Uncle Niu) couldn't help but worry. At this moment, Niu Tianxing saw Niu Yun playing with Little Hairen. He thought that he had it, so he could only take the risk. He immediately shouted to Little Hairen,"Child, come here. I'll give you a prescription for your mother's heart pain. I don't have all the medicine here. I'll mark the line below if I lack the medicine. Hurry up and let your mother prescribe the medicine to treat the disease. If it's delayed, it won't be easy to treat her."”As he spoke, he opened a medicinal paper and wrote on it. Then, he went to his medicine cabinet and grabbed a few herbs. He wrapped them up together with the prescription and handed them to Little Hai Ren.
Little Hai Ren put away the medicine packet and said to Niu Tianxing,""Thank you, Second Uncle Niu."
Just as Little Hai Ren took the medicine packet, he heard Second Uncle Niu say to him,""Hai Ren, go home quickly and show your mother the prescription. Leave Clear Spring Town as soon as possible. If you're late, I'm afraid something big will happen. Don't look at me, they can't hear me. Do you understand?* Astonishment! br/
Little Hai Ren nodded slightly and quickly left Second Uncle Niu's house to walk back to his own home. When she got home, she saw her mother sorting out her father's manuscripts, and her babbling sister playing with a tiger-head pillow. Little Hai Ren quickly opened the medicine bag and handed the prescription to his mother.""Mother, something big has happened! Someone is looking for us. It seems that they want to harm us. Those people are at Second Uncle Niu's house. This is written by Second Uncle Niu. Quickly take a look at what's going on.”
Liu-shi Yue Ting took the prescription and read it together with Little Hai Ren. Madam Nan, the people of the Emotional Tranquil Sect are looking for Madam Nan's family. The reason is because of the Spirit Restoration Pill gifted by the sloppy Taoist during the "Zhou Catching" years ago. The Emotional Tranquil Sect is ruthless and merciless, and will do anything to achieve their goals. Madam Nan, please take your child and leave Clear Spring Town as soon as possible. If you delay, there will be a disaster.
After reading it, Liu-shi immediately thought of the time when Hai Ren captured Zhou. The sloppy Daoist and the Desireless Divine Monk had told her that the Nan family would be in trouble in the future. It seemed that today was finally the day. Liu-shi calmed herself down and made a decision. She turned around and said to Little Hai Ren,"Hai Ren, quickly go to the study room and get the jade bottle and Buddha beads from the third shelf of the second row of the bookshelf.”After saying that, he packed a few clothes as quickly as possible, took the few pieces of loose clothing at home, and picked up Little Nanping. He waited for Little Hairen to bring the jade bottle and Buddha beads, and then left immediately.
Little Hai Ren went to the study room to get the jade bottle and Buddha beads and quickly returned to the main room. His mother was already ready to leave home. He reached out and gave the jade bottle and Buddha beads to his mother, saying,"Mother, I've already taken it. Are we leaving now?”
Madam Liu said," Yes, we'll leave now. If we're late, we won't be able to leave. I already knew that this day would come, but I didn't expect it to come so soon. Child, this Buddha Bead and the elixir in the jade bottle were originally given to you by an immortal and an eminent monk when you were one year old. At that time, the eminent monk once said that the Buddha Bead could ward off filth. Mother will put it on for you. Keep the elixir well. We'll leave the town first and then go to the capital to seek shelter from your uncle."”Little Hai Ren put the jade bottle into his Universe Treasure Bag. His mother had strung the Buddha beads with a red string and placed them on his right wrist.
After saying that, Mrs Liu carried her bag and carried her daughter out of the house with Little Hai Ren. They quickly walked out of the town. When they reached the outside of the town, the three of them decided to take a boat along the Yangtze River to Gusu and then north to the capital. When they arrived at the Yangtze River, they saw a black boat by the river. Mrs. Liu went forward to negotiate the price with the boatman and the family of three got on the boat. They found a Taoist priest in his forties sitting in the cabin. His face was like a plate, his eyes were like bright stars, and his big ears had wheels. He wore the Eight Trigrams Immortal Clothes, carried an ancient sword with pine patterns on his back, and held a feathered horsetail whisk in his hand. He was full of righteousness.
After Mrs. Liu settled down the two children, she instructed Little Hairen to take good care of her sister. She took the initiative to talk to the boatwoman about her livelihood and help her make a fire to boil tea. Little Hai Ren quickly coaxed his sister Nan Ping to sleep. At this moment, the Taoist priest who was meditating opened his eyes and said to Little Hai Ren,""It's been ten years since we crossed the same boat. This little benefactor is really fated with the fork. However, I can see that this little benefactor's palace is dark and his eyebrows are fierce. There must be a great disaster in the near future. However, from this little benefactor's face, this little benefactor isn't someone who will die early. His future is bumpy and his fate is cruel. The variables in his life are unpredictable.”
The small boat sailed down the river without any mishaps. Soon, it was evening and it was moored at a small island called Three Rocks Ferry. In the middle of the night, a long howl broke the tranquility of Sanyan Ferry. Little Hai Ren was awakened from his dream. He got up and looked out through the narrow window of the boat. Under the moonlight, Little Hai Ren found that it was the three Taoist priests he had met at Uncle Niu's house. Now, the three of them were holding torches and searching the boats moored at Sanyan Ferry one by one, as if they were looking for someone or something. Huo Yunzi said," Qing Yun, Chai Yun, you two search thoroughly. You can't let that little fellow escape. Otherwise, when we return to the sect, we'll be laughed at by our fellow disciples."”
Little Hai Ren knew that they were looking for the three of them. Seeing the Taoist approaching, Little Hai Ren's heart thumped so hard that he could hear it, as if his heart was about to jump out of his chest. "The children are looking for you, right? Don't be afraid. Since we are fated to cross the river together, I will form a good relationship with them.”
At this moment, a Daoist priest with a pockmarked face shouted,"With Senior Brother here, we can still let the dots escape with our tracking techniques.”After saying that, he opened the curtain and walked into the cabin. He reached out to grab Little Hai Ren. At this time, the Daoist in the Eight Trigrams Immortal Robe flashed and blocked the path of the Daoist who had just entered. He also said,"When did the esteemed Severing Love Sect start to trespass on boatmen and harm women?"”
The freckled Taoist priest who was blocked glared at the Taoist priest in the Eight Trigrams Immortal Robe who was blocking him and said,"Fellow Daoist, why are you doing this? My Heart-Severing Sect is here today to handle some matters. I hope Fellow Daoist will not cause trouble.”
The Daoist priest in the Eight Trigrams Immortal Robe said," What's the difference between your actions and those of the Path-cutting Sect? You don't even deserve to be called the Heartless Sect. Although the Heartless Sect isn't a famous sect, they haven't done such a thing to bully ordinary people in the secular world for hundreds of years. Today, I'll stand up for the secular world and fight your evil sect, the Heartless Sect. I'll see what you rely on to be so domineering in the cultivation world.”After saying that, the Daoist priest in the Eight Trigrams Immortal Robe made a sword gesture with his left hand and stuck the hairless horsetail whisk behind his neck with his right hand. At the same time, he pulled out the ancient pine sword on his back. A powerful aura pressed down on the Daoist priest from the Emotion-Severing Sect.
Sensing that his opponent was so powerful, the pockmarked Daoist priest raised his stick-shaped magic treasure, the Water Fire Rod, and shouted,""Senior Martial Brother Huo Yun, someone wants to build a bridge here.”
The Daoist priest in the Eight Trigrams Immortal Robe held the ancient pine tree sword in his hand and attacked the pockmarked Daoist priest with the sword pointing to the south. The pockmarked Daoist priest hurriedly used the Water and Fire Rod to block, and the two of them fought.
At this moment, Huo Yunzi heard Daoist Priest's shout and rushed over with another Daoist Priest from the Heart-Severing Sect. Before he even arrived, his voice was heard first." I, Huo Yunzi, want to see who is so bold as to set up a feud with my Heart-Severing Sect.”
The Daoist priest in the Eight Trigrams Immortal Robe said as he fought with the Daoist priest with the pockmarked face,"Brother Fire Cloud, it seems that you haven't improved much after twenty years on the Towering Sky Peak. I want to see what kind of ultimate techniques you've learned in the past twenty years.”
" Junior Brother Qing Yun, please stop," Huo Yunzi said." It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding." I was wondering who was the one who dared to pick a fight with the Emotional Severing Sect, so it was my Dao brother. We are also following the orders of our sect to investigate this matter. Please take into account that we are both cultivators and do us a favor. Huoyun will be very grateful.”
Zi jumped out of the circle and said,"Heavenly Lord Immeasurable, I don't care if you're following the orders of your sect, but disturbing people's dreams in one night and shocking the world is wrong." I don't know why you are making such a big fuss under the orders of your sect. Can you come to the fork?”
After Huo Yunzi heard this, his eyes were filled with anger. He frowned and said,"Dao brother seems to be too nosy. How can I tell you about my sect's matters?”
Zi Xiang thought that Huo Yunzi and his fellow disciples were determined to get Little Hai Ren and his family. However, the task of secretly protecting the Nan family given to them by their Uncle-Master Shabby Daoist for the past five years had to be completed. It seemed that they could only fight to the death today. After hearing Huo Yunzi's words, he said," Brother Huo Yun, I don't have what you're looking for on this ship. Please go back. I still have to meditate. I won't be accompanying you."”
Huo Yunzi said," My fellow Daoist, my fellow disciples, and I have traveled thousands of miles to come here. We saw that the mission assigned by our sect was about to be completed, but we returned because of a few words from you. It's too weak for the name of our sect, the Heart-Severing Sect. Whether there's something that my fellow disciples are looking for on the ship will have to wait for my fellow disciples to check. Please let us in and check."”
"What if I don't let you check?" the Master asked.”
Huo Yunzi said," Then perhaps this poor Daoist brother can only barge in. When the time comes, please forgive me."”After saying that, he gave Qing Yun and Zi Yun a look. The two of them quickly pressed the three positions and surrounded Zi in the middle.
Little Hai Ren and the other two watched everything that happened at the bow of the ship through the window. Their hearts were beating fast. Madam Liu whispered to Little Hai Ren,"Hai Ren, if the people of the Emotion Severing Sect and the Immortal Elder start fighting later, you can take advantage of the chaos to go ashore and think of a way to leave. Mother and little sister are just women, so I don't think they will do anything to us.”
"Mother, I won't leave. I won't leave mother and sister."”
Madam Liu said," Be obedient, child. This is the only chance for our *** to be safe. You must leave. It's not that Mother doesn't love you, but this is also a last resort for Mother and your sister. If you go ashore, you must find a way to find us at your aunt's house in the capital."”At this point, Liu-shi was already sobbing. She knew how difficult it was for a six-year-old child, a child who had never left the care of his parents, to live alone and to think of the capital thousands of miles away. Perhaps because of various reasons, it was difficult to say whether the child could survive.
Little Nanping also seemed to have suddenly become sensible. She wiped her mother and brother's tears as she said,""Mother, Brother will be fine. Mother and Brother, don't cry.”
At this moment, Little Hai Ren heard," Little kid, I'll hold Huo Yunzi and the other two back later. You have to go ashore and think of a way to leave. If you have the chance, go to Mount Kunlun's Sunset Temple and tell the abbot that you don't have a mission."”
At this moment, Zi and Huo Yunzi had already started fighting. The sword and bamboo shadows formed a stretch. Huo Yunzi and his brothers used the Three Talents Formation to trap Zi. However, this had a fatal weakness. When they trapped the enemy, they also completely tied themselves to death. Little Hai Ren took advantage of the gap and quietly went ashore, walking into the night.
When Little Hai Ren reached the ridge on the opposite side, he heard a loud noise coming from the direction of the Three Rocks Crossing. When he turned around to look at the Three Rocks Crossing, he saw that the dark awning boat he had just left had disappeared from its original spot. Only a few broken pieces of wood indicated that a boat had just docked here. The few people who were fighting just now also disappeared without a trace.
"Mother!" Little Hai Ren shouted. After that, he felt his vision turn black and fainted on the mountain ridge.
