Mount Hua was one of the five mountains. It was located in Weinan City, Shaanxi Province, east of Xi'an City. To the north was the vast Wei River Plain and the roaring Yellow River, and to the south was the Qinling Mountains. It was a granite mountain on the north side of the Qinling Mountains 'tributary ridge. With the changing colors of nature, Mount Hua's various postures were vividly portrayed.
After several days of traveling, Dugu Duan and Linghu Chong finally arrived at Huayin County at the foot of Mount Hua.
Sitting in the car, Dugu Duan looked around from time to time, as if he was very interested in everything.
Because Dugu Duan did not know how to ride a horse, Linghu Chong rented a carriage and ate the rations he brought along with him. He hurried along and ate and drank in the carriage. Du Guduan was extremely interested in Huayin County Town. This was the first county town he had seen in ancient times.
He was used to seeing high-rise buildings and ancient buildings. It was very interesting.
"It's a newly steamed big bun. The skin is thin and the meat is thick.”
"I'm selling Chaos, hot Chaos.”
"A sesame seed cake costs one coin."
Unknowingly, the carriage passed by the downtown area. Hearing the peddlers 'cries and smelling the fragrant food, Dugu Duan's stomach growled. Just as he was about to take out some rations to eat, Linghu Chong, who was driving the carriage, lifted the curtain.
"Little Duan, we can have a feast this round.”Linghu Chong said happily.
an hour later
"As expected, the wine here is the best. Come, Little Duan, cheers."
Ling Huchong finished his sentence without waiting for Dugu Duan to raise his cup. Gradually, she felt that drinking with a cup was not good, so she changed to a big shot.
Fortunately, you didn't change the jar. Otherwise, I would have thought that it was the eighth division of dragons and dragons.
Dugu Duan looked at Linghu Chong who was sleeping soundly on the table and was speechless. This was not a big meal, but a big drink. Fortunately, the boss seemed to know the drunkard Linghu.
Dugu Duan and the boss carried Linghu Chong to the guest room upstairs. Dugu Duan also asked for a guest room. He felt dizzy. He had drunk quite a bit with Linghu just now. She tilted her head and fell asleep on the bed.
.. dividing line
The next morning, Dugu Duan opened his eyes in a daze. He squinted under the sunlight and got up to put on his clothes.
Gulp! Gulp!
He grabbed the teapot on the table and took a few gulps before he completely sobered up and pushed the door open.
Linghu Chong was dressed neatly and eating breakfast downstairs.
"Brother Chong, I'm sorry I woke up late.”
"It's fine, Little Duan. I just woke up.”Linghu Chong said nonchalantly.
" Little Duan," Linghu Chong said excitedly," I remember you drank too much yesterday. You're a good drinker. Let's have a drink again when we're free."”
"Hehe…Brother Chong, when are we going back to Mount Hua?”
Dugu Duan broke out in cold sweat. I could still drink a few glasses with you at the beginning yesterday, but you drank it all before I could drink. Speaking of which, why can't the martial arts world be separated from alcohol? Isn't this cheating me, who doesn't like to drink?
"Haha…I guess you're in a hurry to acknowledge me as your master. Don't worry, my master is a famous gentleman. He will definitely take you in as his disciple. At that time, you'll be my junior brother.”Linghu Chong smiled.
Du Guduan smiled and said nothing.
Old Yue isn't qualified to be my master, so I can't be your junior brother. Maybe you'll have to call me uncle master in the future.
Since ancient times, Mount Hua had only one road, and it was incomparably steep.
However, to martial artists who knew Qinggong, this was nothing but a joke.?
"Brother Chong, put me down."
Dugu Duan was dizzy and felt like he was about to throw up.
"Wait, it's not here yet."
Looking at the majestic Huashan Sect's main hall and stepping on the bluestone slabs beneath his feet, Dugu Duan's uncomfortable stomach felt much better.
"Let's go, Little Duan. Let's go see my master.”
Ling Huchong pulled up Dugu Duan who was squatting on the ground.
At this moment, there was a scholar sitting in the Upright Morality Hall. This person had a long beard with five willows under his chin. His face was like jade and he had a righteous expression. However, it made people who saw him for the first time feel admiration in their hearts.
"Master, your disciple is back." Linghu Chong quickly stepped forward and bowed.
"Chong-er, did you gain anything in these few days?”
Old Yue was talking about Linghu Chong, but his eyes were looking at Dugu Duan.
"Master! Let me introduce you."
After saying that, Ling Huchong signaled Dugu Duan to come forward and pay his respects.
"Junior Mo Duan greets Sect Master Yue!”
Dugu Duan cupped his fists and bowed.
"Chong-er, who is this little brother?”Yue Buqun smiled.
"Sigh…Master, this is a long story…"
Linghu Chong sighed and recounted what he had seen and heard in Solitary Sword Village. He emphasized on Dugu Duan's tragic background and his desire to learn martial arts.
Old Yue fell silent after he heard that. He looked at Dugu Duan, thinking about something.
And Du Guduan did not go up and beg Yue Buqun to accept him as a disciple. In fact, he came to Mount Hua mainly for Feng Qingyang. He instinctively kept a respectful distance from Old Yue. He was afraid that he would cheat him and help him count the money.
In this way, there was no rush for one person in the hall who wanted to take on a master, and there was no rush for another person who wanted to take on a disciple. However, Linghu Chong was getting anxious. He kept winking at Dugu Duan, hinting him to kneel down and acknowledge him as his master. "Master, I beg you to accept Mo Duan." His background was as pitiful as his disciple's. Furthermore, on the way back, I also felt that he was an upright person. He would definitely not tarnish the reputation of our Huashan Sect.”
Seeing Linghu Chong beg his master and help him for his sake, Dugu Duan would be lying if he said he wasn't touched. Helpless, he could only say,"
"Junior implores Sect Master Yue to take me as a disciple.”
Dugu Duan bent his legs and was about to kneel down. Although he was very conflicted, he knew that he had to kneel when acknowledging a master.
However, the plan was not as fast as the changes. Before Du Guduan could kneel down, Yue Buqun suddenly waved his hand and an internal force supported him. No matter how hard he tried, he could not kneel down. When he looked up and saw Old Yue's serious expression, he knew that he did not want to take him as a disciple.
Humph! This was even better. I don't want to acknowledge you as my master. If it wasn't for Linghu Chong, I wouldn't even bother with you. Dugu Duan sneered in his heart.
"Young hero, forgive me for not accepting you as my disciple. Since you are Chong-er's friend, you can stay on Mount Hua for a few days.”
Yue Buqun didn't even look at the stunned Linghu Chong as he turned around and left.
"This…"
Ling Huchong scratched his head in embarrassment, not knowing what to say.
"Haha, Big Brother Chong, it's fine. I think Sect Leader Yue must have his reasons. Although it's a pity that I can't join the Huashan Sect, I think there are countless righteous sects in the world.”Dugu Duan laughed.
"That's right. I was going to beg Master later, but I didn't expect you to be so open-minded. That's good. When the time comes, I'll beg Master to write you a recommendation letter.”Linghu Chong said happily.
When he heard the words 'Five Mountain Sword Sect', a trace of deep hatred flashed in Dugu Duan's eyes. However, he was afraid that Ling Huchong would notice something and quickly smiled."Thank you, Brother Chong, but I want to stay on Mount Hua for a few more days. Don't dislike me!"
"Haha…you can stay as long as you want. I'm just afraid that you'll be bored.”Linghu Chong laughed.
It was probably boring without alcohol. Dugu Duan ridiculed in his heart. But then, he was shocked.
"Little Duan, I almost forgot. I still have two bottles of good wine hidden at my place. I won't go home until I'm drunk.”
After saying that, Ling Huchong dragged the pained Dugu Duan out.
"Humph!"
" Hmph!" A cold snort came from the hall, which was especially prominent in the empty hall. Then, a green-robed scholar walked out from behind the screen. He wore a light robe and waved a folding fan in his right hand. His expression was very carefree. It was Yue Buqun.
Yue Buqun looked at the two people walking away with a gloomy expression. He laughed coldly in his heart, Chong-er is still a child. Did he really think that Mo Duan was learning martial arts for the sake of chivalrous justice? What a joke. Although that kid was indeed shrewd, I could see through the hatred in his heart with a single glance.”
If Du Guduan knew that Old Yue had seen through him, he would definitely be glad that he failed to become his disciple. Yue Buqun was that highly respected old senior, really too terrifying.
Mo Duan's talent was not bad, but unfortunately, his root bone had already been set, and it would be difficult for him to achieve anything in his life. Moreover, it was Mount Song Sect who massacred the village. Why should I get involved in this muddy water? It would be bad if I attracted Senior Brother Zuo's attention.
"Brother Zuo, Brother Zuo, why did you slaughter the entire Solitary Sword Village?”
Yue Buqun sat alone in the main hall, his face flickering as he calculated in his heart.
