step on mountains and rivers

The chivalrous man heard Tang Qingfeng's question, so he replied:

"Tang Shaoxia, it's like this. I heard that there are man-eating monsters appearing in Jiulong Lake recently, and many knights who went to investigate have disappeared. We planned to go and see, but I heard that the Tianxia League is recruiting people. Then I changed my way to Luoyang to have a look.”

"I see, thank you very much." Tang Qingfeng said.

"Young hero is welcome." The knight said.

"Well, let's chat slowly." After Tang Qingfeng finished speaking, he turned and walked back to his seat.

At the square table, Tang Qingfeng ate food, thought for a while, looked at the three of them and said:

"What do you think of this matter?"

"I don't know, I'll find out after looking at it," Jiang Ling said.

"I don't know what kind of man-eating monster is eight feet tall?" Lu Qing said.

"Could it be a mistake?" Li Zhenwu asked.

"It's possible, but we've seen quite a few monsters of this size," Lu Qing said.

Li Zhenwu listened to Lu Qing's words, thought about the previous things, nodded and said:

"Anyway, everyone be careful."

"Yes." Lu Qing replied.

Tang Qingfeng listened to the words of the three, put away his thoughts and said:

"Zhenwu is right, everyone needs to be careful during this trip."

"Okay." Jiang Ling said to Tang Qingfeng after returning: "Old Tang, we won't go into the city tomorrow, let's go directly to Jiulong Lake."

"Yes." After Tang Qingfeng returned, several people quickly finished their meal, and then went back to their rooms to rest.

In the room, Tang Qingfeng brought Li Zhenwu a cup of tea, handed it to him and said:

"Zhenwu, I wonder what the monster in Nine Dragon Lake could be?"

"I don't know." After Li Zhenwu returned, Tang Qingfeng picked up the wine glass on the table, poured himself a glass of sake, and drank it slowly.

Seeing Tang Qingfeng's worried expression, Li Zhenwu comforted him:

"Brother Tang, don't worry, you'll know when you go tomorrow."

"Well, Zhenwu, I'm not worried about this." Tang Qingfeng said.

"Brother Tang?" Li Zhenwu asked.

"Zhenwu, Jinling..." Tang Qingfeng fell silent after speaking, and poured himself another glass of sake.

Seeing Tang Qingfeng like this, Li Zhenwu remembered the memory of that snowy night.He looked at Tang Qingfeng, and comforted him softly:

"Brother Tang."

"En." After Tang Qingfeng returned, he looked at Li Zhenwu gently and said, "Thank you, Zhenwu."

"Brother Tang." Li Zhenwu looked at the person in front of him, but he didn't know how to comfort him.

He slowly approached Tang Qingfeng, stretched out his hand to hug Tang Qingfeng gently, and whispered in his ear:

"Brother Tang, there is me."

"Zhenwu." Tang Qingfeng looked at Li Zhenwu who was close to him, reached out to wrap his arms around his waist, leaned forward, and put a deep kiss on his lips.

After the kiss, Tang Qingfeng let go of Li Zhenwu, smiled at him and said:

"Zhenwu, thank you."

"You're welcome." Li Zhenwu looked at Tang Qingfeng with a slightly red face, then remembered something, and said to Tang Qingfeng:

"Brother Tang, do you want to visit the place where your parents' bodies are buried?"

"Huh? Zhenwu knows where my parents are buried?" Tang Qingfeng asked.

"Well, it's the place chosen by Master. Brother Tang, that place," Li Zhenwu said while looking at Tang Qingfeng, "it's beautiful."

"Really." Tang Qingfeng replied softly, then looked at Li Zhenwu and asked, "Where is it?"

"The cliff beside Jiulong Mountain." Li Zhenwu said.

"Okay, Zhenwu, let's go and have a look together." Tang Qingfeng said.

"Yes." Li Zhenwu replied.

After the two chatted, they went to rest with Tang Qingfeng.

In the middle of the night, when the moon is in the sky, the moonlight falls on the treetops, penetrates into the house, and falls in front of the bed.The people in the house fell asleep with their beloved in their arms.

On the second day, the four of them set off early and rode quickly towards Jiulong Lake.The horse galloped for most of the day, and when the sun was setting, it arrived at an unknown village near Jiulong Mountain.

Tang Qingfeng looked at the scattered thatched cottages not far away, and said to the three people beside him:

"It's getting late, let's rest here today."

"Okay." After the three returned, they rode with Tang Qingfeng towards the small village.

After entering the village, Tang Qingfeng borrowed some money and lived in a villager's house.

In the house, the villagers were cooking for a few people, so Tang Qingfeng took the opportunity to ask him:

"Uncle, how far is Jiulong Lake?"

"It's not far, just cross Jiulong Mountain." After the villagers returned, they glanced at Tang Qingfeng and said:

"Master, are you going to Jiulong Lake?"

"Well, what's wrong?" Tang Qingfeng asked.

The villagers listened to his question, looked at the crowd, and then said slowly:

"Young master, it's better not to go, hurry back."

"Why did uncle say that? Is it because of the monster in Jiulong Lake?" Tang Qingfeng asked.

"You also know about monsters?" The villagers were a little surprised.

"I know a little bit, I heard that it is a man-eating monster with a height of eight feet." Tang Qingfeng said.

"What kind of man-eating monsters are they spreading nonsense." The villager said.

"Huh? Uncle, do you know something?" Tang Qingfeng asked.

The villagers looked at Tang Qingfeng, then at the remaining three people, then nodded slightly, and said cautiously:

"I went to Jiulong Lake that day, and I saw it."

"What did uncle see?" Li Zhenwu asked.

"Dead body." The villager said.

"Dead body?" Lu Qing asked.

Seeing that Lu Qing was puzzled, the villagers looked at him with a frightened expression, and said in a low voice:

"The Dead Are Risen"

"What?!" Jiang Ling was startled after hearing what the villagers said, "How can the dead body be resurrected?!"

Listening to the conversation of several people, Tang Qingfeng said slowly:

"Lao Jiang, it is indeed possible for a dead body to be resurrected."

"Brother Tang, you mean longevity Gu?" Li Zhenwu frowned.

"Yeah." Tang Qingfeng nodded slightly.

After listening to what the two said, Lu Qing thought for a while and said:

"So, we really didn't see Toshi Fujiwara at that time. Could it be that he came to Dazhou with Wu Yue?"

"It's possible." Tang Qingfeng said.

"It turned out that he was playing tricks." Jiang Ling said:

"Wutian City is not enough, this time came to Dazhou again. This man is really hateful, when I see him, I will definitely kill him with one punch, lest he continue to do evil."

"Okay, we really should finish him off," Tang Qingfeng said.

"Yes." Jiang Ling nodded.

After several people finished speaking, the villagers looked at Tang Qingfeng suspiciously and said:

"Young master, you..."

"Uncle, we are here to solve the problem." Tang Qingfeng said.

After listening to Tang Qingfeng's words, the villagers nodded slightly and stopped asking.

After everyone had dinner and rested all night, the morning light came on, and Li Zhenwu and Tang Qingfeng woke up early.

The two went out, and Tang Qingfeng saw the villagers working hard outside, so he came forward to say hello:

"Morning uncle."

"Morning, young masters," said the villager.

The two nodded in response. Tang Qingfeng said to the villagers: "Uncle, we have something to go out for half an hour. When my friend wakes up, please tell my friend."

"Okay." After the villagers returned, Tang Qingfeng followed Li Zhenwu to Jiulong Mountain not far away.

The two left the village, practiced lightness kung fu, and quickly jumped towards the mountainside.

When they came to the mountainside, Li Zhenwu jumped down from the treetops, followed by Tang Qingfeng, who landed on the cliff.

On the edge of the cliff, a wild mountain peach grows horizontally from the cliff. The huge branch bends upwards, producing dense branches and leaves, blocking half of the cliff.

In the distance, the morning sun slowly rises from the lake, the golden morning light penetrates the mist and reflects on the treetops, bright red fruits looming among the emerald green leaves.

Li Zhenwu looked at the huge peach tree on the edge of the cliff, and sighed softly:

"I didn't expect it to grow so big."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at the small hill not far from the peach tree, and said to Tang Qingfeng:

"Brother Tang, that's it."

Tang Qingfeng listened to Li Zhenwu's words, looked at the small hill full of wild flowers, and walked over slowly.

Seeing him walking, Li Zhenwu stood under the mountain peach tree and waited quietly.

Before Tang Qingfeng came to the small hill, looking at the handwriting on the stone slab where the wild flowers were, a burst of sadness hit his heart.

"The battlefield is cold and rainy, and a silver spear pierces the sky. Now the mountains and rivers are still there, and the soul of the king is not seen fighting Yanyun. Father, what you want to protect, Qingfeng will definitely protect you to the end."

He thought about glancing at Li Zhenwu in the distance, and said softly to the tombstone:

"Father, mother, now Qingfeng also has a guardian. The Taoist priest under the mountain peach tree is the love of Qingfeng's life. May you bless us and protect us until we die."

After Tang Qingfeng finished speaking, a breeze blew over his face gently, and turned towards Li Zhenwu.When the breeze blew by, he seemed to hear a soft whisper.

He looked at the tombstone in surprise, then turned his head to look at Li Zhenwu, only to see Li Zhenwu looking at him in surprise.

When the breeze blew, Li Zhenwu seemed to hear a soft female voice from the wind.

The two stared at each other in surprise for a moment. Tang Qingfeng walked slowly towards Li Zhenwu. He looked at the surprised Li Zhenwu and asked him softly:

"Zhenwu, did you hear that?"

"Yes." Li Zhenwu nodded slightly.

"That's my mother's blessing." Tang Qingfeng said.

"En." After Li Zhenwu returned, he said to Tang Qingfeng: "Brother Tang, we will definitely go to Baishou."

"Yes." Tang Qingfeng said firmly.

After the two finished speaking, Tang Qingfeng took a step forward, stretched out his hand to embrace Li Zhenwu in his arms, and remained silent.

The breeze hit again, surrounding the two of them, like a big warm hand, tightly encircling them, then circled around their bodies and flew towards the distant sky.

Li Zhenwu looked at the leaving breeze, and said to Tang Qingfeng:

"Brother Tang, they're leaving."

"Hmm." After Tang Qingfeng returned, he slowly let go of Li Zhenwu.He glanced at the place where the breeze left, and said softly to the sky:

"Father, mother, thank you."

After Tang Qingfeng finished speaking, he cleared up his mood, looked at the morning light in the distance, and said to Li Zhenwu:

"Zhenwu, it's getting late, let's go back."

"Okay." After Li Zhenwu finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, but Tang Qingfeng said:

"Zhenwu, wait."

"Huh?" Li Zhenwu turned around and saw Tang Qingfeng jumping towards the mountain peach tree.

I saw Tang Qingfeng falling on the tree trunk, reached out and picked off the bright red mountain peach, took a bite lightly, and then smiled at Li Zhenwu with satisfaction:

"Zhenwu, the mountain peaches are ripe, very sweet and sour. Zhenwu, come and help me."

"Oh, good." After replying to Tang Qingfeng's words, Li Zhenwu quickly ran towards him.

Outside the cliff, Tang Qingfeng picked some mature mountain peaches and threw them on the green grass on the edge of the cliff. After seeing it, Li Zhenwu found a big leaf and put the mountain peaches away.

Tang Qingfeng picked the last one. Seeing Li Zhenwu holding a large pile of mountain peaches in his arms, he stopped collecting and jumped back to the cliff, thinking that the number was almost there.

He fell in front of Li Zhenwu, rubbed the bright red mountain peach on his clothes, then handed it to Li Zhenwu's mouth and said:

"Zhenwu, this one looks delicious, try Zhenwu."

Li Zhenwu looked at the mountain peach in front of him, and lightly opened his mouth to take a bite. The mountain peach was sweet and slightly sour, which was very delicious.

Seeing that Li Zhenwu was satisfied, Tang Qingfeng continued to feed him. When Li Zhenwu finished eating the peaches, Tang Qingfeng threw the peach pits aside, licked the remaining peach juice on his fingertips, and said to Li Zhenwu:

"Zhenwu, it's very delicious."

"Brother Tang." Listening to Tang Qingfeng's words and watching his movements, Li Zhenwu blushed unnaturally.

Seeing him like this, Tang Qingfeng loved him very much. He leaned close to him, reached out and lifted his chin, and kissed him lightly on the lips.

After a while, he let go of Li Zhenwu, took the mountain peach from Li Zhenwu's arms, and smiled at him:

"There are a lot of mountain peaches, I'll help Zhenwu get them."

"Oh, good." Li Zhenwu came back to his senses, and replied to Tang Qingfeng in a daze.

"Well, let's go back." Tang Qingfeng said and walked down the mountain with Li Zhenwu.
