Jade bone ice muscle

Warm the tent and smoke the stove, the light dreams dissipate, and the crane does not return to sleep soundly.

In the mist, I heard a few crisp "Master", which is not like my childhood self, who sometimes disgusts and reluctantly calls people, and sometimes has an awkward dependence.

And the person calling him has always been direct and straightforward as it should be, as if he had been fully prepared to take over this sudden master-student relationship early in the morning.

For the Venerable One, what else is there to be awkward about.

The melancholy of missing the old man suddenly dissipated, and He Bugui lazily opened his eyes.

Yu Wuque was wearing thin clothes, sitting on the edge of the bed, holding a book in one hand and reading it seriously, it was "Eternal History of Things".

He Bugui stared at it for a while, and waited until his sight became clear before he asked, "Where did you see it?"

"Ah, Master is awake."

The heat in the quilt was so hot that Crane Bugui was rosy in the face, eyes half-opened, the tails of eyebrows were sharpened, and seeing that he was in a good mood, Yu Wuque put down the book and brought him some tea.

"After reading most of it, I was talking about Ji Xuan beheading Bi An in anger. I was busy making Yanjia before, but now I always lie down and study it carefully."

He Bugui warned: "Look carefully."

"Understood." Yu Wuque straightened his body, waiting for the crane to return to drink tea, "Master."

The tea bowl covered most of He Bugui's face, and he lazily said "Mmm".

"Master."

"Hey, Master."

He Bugui raised his beautiful eyes: "Speak up if you have something to say."

I just want to call you.

Yu Wuque blinked his eyes, his eyes were full of smiles.

He really didn't have anything to say. His own origin was a matter of concern before, but now it is made public, and the details are told by his grandmother one by one. Once a person knows his origin, he will feel more at ease.

Besides, as for the relationship with Ji Xuan and the Undead City, no one can tell anyway, so he might as well deal with it calmly. While he has "Eternal Scenery" to explore, he is thinking, he is a good living person, so he must Getting involved with dead people and ghost towns is kind of asking for trouble.

He Bugui slept comfortably and had great patience. After waiting for a long time, Yu Wuque did not utter a single word, he teased: "You can talk from morning till night if you don't tell me to shut up, but today I got stuck, do you have concerns? "

"No, I know everything I want to know, and no one can explain what I don't understand. I'm too lazy to delve into it."

Quite philosophical, He Bugui said: "Then what are you thinking about?"

Yu Wuque seldom stumbled, and said with a smile, "I care about two things."

He moved closer, half lying on the bedside, and rubbed the corners of the quilt into hillocks: "Master really chose my name? Why didn't I take my grandparents' surname, nor did I take my master's surname? What about Jade?"

"I call you Guan Ergou, are you happy?"

Yu Wuque curled his lips: "Not happy."

"Black Iron Pillar."

Yu Wuque frowned in disgust: "It's so ugly."

"It's not my son, you have to have my surname for whatever you do." He Bugui said, "So I picked up words related to Ji Xuan and used them as my surname."

Seeing Yu Wuque's confused face, He Bugui glanced at him: "You must not have read the book seriously."

Yu Wuque hurriedly said, "I haven't finished watching yet."

"Ji Xuan once made a beloved puppet, with a single name of "Jade." He Bugui raised his hand and gently touched the center of Yu Wuque's eyebrows, "When I first met you, you had many birthmarks on your body. In order to protect your birthmark, senior brother The mystery is gone, let me take a look at it for you, and go to the bronze mirror to see it yourself."

Yu Wuque obediently went to the bronze mirror, and the eyebrows gradually showed the authenticity. The two lifelike dragons were coiled together, and the bright red was dazzling. He had seen it in the book, and this was what Ji Xuan would leave for the puppet as Yanshi imprint.

No wonder Crane Bugui used jade characters as his surname.

But this body imprint should appear on a dead object, that is Ji Xuan's own artificiality, there is no doubt that there is him, and now it is on a living person, how can this be explained?

Thinking about it, the master didn't understand the whole story, so he used the word jade as a metaphor for his origin and possible origin, or maybe, jade is Ji Xuan's most proud work, and he also hopes that Yu Wuque will get the luck of that puppet and become a unique one. talent.

The birthmark between the eyebrows reveals a kind of strangeness, Yu Wuque's appearance is already outstanding, and the bright red catches people's attention, which makes him have a hint of bewitching charm besides his handsome appearance.

But Yu Wuque thought it was very beautiful, and stood there admiringly, and was about to open the peacock.

The crane didn't return: "Take off your shirt and look again."

Jade Peacock obeyed, took off his clothes and threw them aside, his back was covered with bumpy and horrible scars, although he was slowly recovering, he still pierced the crane's eyes.

This is also the first time that Yu Wuque has seen the secrets of his body, except for the center of the eyebrows, all the key joints have been marked.

He Bugui moved his wrist and awakened the formation, so that he could see more clearly. The positions of these marks were all particular, and what was connected into one body was to protect the things in his belly.

Seeing Yu Wuque standing there in a daze, poking left and right, not knowing what it was, He Bugui said, "Put on your clothes and come here."

Kongzhi put a cushion beside the bed, and brought over a hand stove and charcoal fire, and the two master and apprentice lay one on the other and began to have a long talk.

"Yu Wuque, you have the key to Qiangu City sealed in your stomach."

"There is a key here?!" Yu Wuque was shocked, touching the thin layer of soft skin on his stomach, "Who stuffed it in?"

"Naturally, the magic circle was there when I was young, but it didn't work. Now the magic circle is working as usual, and it protects your golden core."

The implication is that the golden elixir obtained from cultivation the day after tomorrow is the keystone of the city gate.

That's why it is said that this keystone is born with a destiny inherited from the previous life.

When He Bugui said these words, he spoke eloquently, as if he had an inconspicuous mole growing on his body, which was harmless, and Yu Wuque's panic was swept away.

"I'll only say these words once." Crane Bugui still said in that calm tone, "Whether he has a key or something else in it, keep it if it's yours, and don't let anyone take it away. Cultivate hard and be so powerful that others can't help it." You can't get close, so you can protect yourself."

"To protect yourself is to protect the common people. If you are lazy and let other people's covetousness succeed, not only you will have to pay a heavy price, but also tens of millions of people, understand?"

How could I be so unlucky, this was Yu Wuque's first thought.

The laziness of others will ultimately be the fault of oneself. At most, he will be mediocre in his life and have no major faults. However, if Yu Wuque is lazy and allows things to be taken away from him, he is a sinner in the world.

If he wants to live a good life, he has to show his ability and be worthy of the way of life left by others. Otherwise, if the people outside hold the key and say that they want to drive out the evildoers, he will be powerless to refute.

"Chasing chickens and dogs or setting fire to mountains, I don't bother to care about you." He Bugui gave him a note of Mawei, "But you should weigh the price clearly. If there is any mistake in this matter, I won't kill you, and someone will make you pay for it." .”

After being frightened, Yu Wuque nodded obediently: "I understand, I dare not disobey Master's instruction."

After speaking coquettishly, he tugged He Bugui's exposed sleeves: "But you still have to take care of me, I will be obedient."

This was the only thing that He Bugui wanted to confess to Yu Wuque, and there was nothing else to explain after he finished talking.

But tonight's atmosphere was just right, and he was in the mood to say a few more words, so he asked, "You just said you cared about two things, and one more?"

Yu Wuque said "Hmm", not sure if he should mention it: "There is one more thing related to Master, can I ask?"

Crane Bugui Naqiao: "I will answer you according to your mood."

"The person who wrote the preface on the title page is He Nan. He wrote that the ancestor had a relationship with Ji Xuan once in Jiwang Mountain. He was a person worthy of friendship and entrusted with great responsibility. It restores Ji Xuan's life from an objective perspective. He Nan wrote the story of the crane family in Jiwang Mountain, Master, your surname is also He..."

He Bugui said calmly: "He Nan is my second brother."

Yu Wuque said "ah" and continued: "He said that there are four brothers and sisters. He Wang didn't want to waste his brains on naming names, so he picked up the four characters of south, east, north and west. Why is the master called "No Return?"

"My real name is Hexi, but it's the name given to me by Master."

Elder Xuanji heard at that time, Hexi Hexi, driving the crane back to the west, why did the majestic Crane King give his child such an unlucky name, it must be changed!

Although the little apprentice has a special fate and a poor physical foundation, but when he comes to me, he has to have a different world of freedom.

He thought of a poem "Shan Ming Ye Temple dawn light, snow covered secluded forests sparsely populated. Living in a solitary life is happy, nothing to go back alone." [1], he changed Hexi to Hebugui.

I hope he can resist the boundless solitude with leisure and interest, and brave the wind and snow to go into the bustle without fear, so that he can be at ease wherever he is in the future and whether there is anyone around him.

After hearing this, Yu Wuque thought it was wonderful, He Bugui could tell him these private things, so it was not good to ask more about the cause of his body.

The crane family in Jiwangshan is no longer a mortal. Crane Bugui should have gone back to the fairy world with his parents and relatives. He came to the world alone.

Yu Wuque thought, the master wanted his master to be at ease, and as a disciple, he wanted to protect this freedom, to be stronger, to protect himself and his master.

"The master hid his kindness in his name and gave it to the master, just like the master gave it to me."

Worry-free and happy forever.

Yu Wuque said, "I understand!"

……

The "handyman" sigil on his body was removed by Crane Bugui, and replaced with an unprecedented "disciple" sigil, allowing him to freely enter and exit all the halls of the Floating Sky Palace.

Although the debts are still high, but the teacher said that all the things in the warehouse can be taken freely, and the debts are owed. In the future, he can go to Qianhefang to sell things, and he can always pay back.

A small building was built between Xia Yuyuan and the main hall. There was a small pond in front of the building for rest and enjoyment of the cool air. This building was used for teaching. Kongzhi asked Yu Wuque to choose a nice name for the study. He thought about it. , the name of happy fast.

Kong Zhi almost vomited blood: "Young Master Yu, you have been studying the text for several years, why did you choose such a vulgar name?"

"You don't understand." Yu Wuque shook his head and recited a poem, and then said, "Since you want to "live in a lonely place and be happy", there should be a place to be happy, which is called Happy Room, anyway, only me and Master are here! "

Three days later, Happy Zhai had the first sound of reading.

He Bugui raised his head and saw the plaque in the study, he just smiled slightly and understood the meaning.

After a few more days of cultivation, Yu Wuque recovered and went down the mountain for the first time after the accident.

The little friends from the past came here after hearing the sound, and lamented that Yu Wuque had been accepted by Shangxian Taiwei, and that he might flourish in the future, congratulations, congratulations, and congratulations, some of them stayed away from him, for fear of getting the ominous atmosphere of the undead city.

He didn't care about coming and going with people, so he took Yue Tingfang to see his younger sister first.

The purpose of coming down the mountain this time is to replace Ji Xuewei's prosthetic limbs. It is a fact that she has lost her legs. When Yu Wuque was recovering from her injuries, she thought that the little girl would inevitably be disheartened.

But after all, she is still young. When her emotions pass, how to live her life in the future is the practical problem to face. He is a big man, and he is not good at taking care of his daughter's emotions, but he is still capable of solving problems, so he personally Made this prosthetic.

It can walk and fly, and is invulnerable. After debugging, it has been perfectly fitted to the severed limb without any discomfort, and there is no difference when wearing shoes and socks.

Ji Xuewei saw that the two brothers were more bitter than the other, so she comforted them: "Brother Fang, the lack of the second brother has nothing to do with you, don't be sour, the three of us will still be able to study and practice together in the future. it's the best."

Yu Wuque also held Yue Tingfang's shoulders: "Are you still to blame?"

"No." Yue Tingfang gave him a hammer, and smiled wryly, "Let's listen to my little sister, the three of us will stay together well in the future, and I will never let this happen again!"

Ji Xuewei thinks much stronger than Yu Wuque. After this incident, she is less immature and more stable than before.

As for Ling Xiao and Ling Lan, one was in Baihua Valley and the other was in Xuanzheng Palace. After the accident, they closed their doors and didn't see anyone. I heard that the emotions of the two brothers and sisters were greatly affected, especially Ling Lan.Yu Wuque wanted to meet him, but firstly he couldn't see anyone, and secondly he had no way to comfort him, so he had to give up.

With Elder Kaiyang and Daoist Yongle taking care of them, nothing will happen right now, but the world has changed outside, and it is already a foreseeable fact that Yulingzong will not be able to continue in the future. It is really difficult for Yulingzong, which is on the verge of being overthrown at any time.

Fortunately, the palace lord said that if the Tianji Palace is in one day, the Yulingzong will be in one day. If the suzerain rebelled against the sect, he ordered the suzerain to be established. Ling Xiao Linglan's dignified disciples, will they not be able to support a Taoist sect?

Bai Yingchi took care of him, who would dare to give this pair of innocent brothers and sisters any grievances.

……

January is fleeting, and Tianji Palace has already had its first heavy snowfall.

The snow piled up to the knees, and when I stepped on it, it was deep and shallow, and the rustling sound was endless.

A luxurious carriage was parked at the entrance of the mountain early in the morning. Yu Wuque had been waiting here for a long time against the cold wind. Footsteps came from the snow in the silent mountain forest. He inserted two branches and arms into the snowman he had just built. Clap your hands and stand up.

"Master! I have been waiting for you for a long time!"

Standing in the wind and snow, the boy looked over with a bright smile and waved to the people on the mountain road.

Crane Bugui walked closer and paused.

Seeing that chubby snowman, with both hands making a gesture of blasting people out of the mountain, there are four big characters written on his stomach-safe journey.

The crane does not return: "..."

Yu Wuque took the umbrella from Kongzhi's hand and held it for He Bugui, and stretched out his hand: "Get in the car, I'll help you."

Crane Bugui shook his head and got into the car, sat still and asked: "You look so happy, do you think you are going to visit the mountains and rivers?"

"Otherwise, Master doesn't want to see the face of bitterness and hatred." Yu Wuque took the cloak for him and hung it aside, "Hurry up and cover your hands, I'm going to catch the horse, let's go."

Seeing that the man was about to run away, He Bugui quickly grabbed Yu Wuque's belt and pulled him back: "Come here to endorse, do you need to drive the horse?"

Yu Wuque's trick failed, and he said with a bitter face, "I still have to recite today, Master... We have been traveling hard, so you should rest too."

Crane Bugui: "I'm not tired."

Yu Wuque thought, I am tired.

The crane didn't return and ignored him, and gave Kong Zhi a look, the puppet immediately got off the carriage and removed the horse stool, the horse neighed, and the wooden wheels jingled and moved forward, rolling over the snow marks.

"The five colors are blinding, the five tones are deafening, and the five flavors are refreshing."【2】

"Running... galloping, ah! It hurts, it hurts, remembering, galloping and hunting, it makes people crazy, and it's a rare thing, it's annoying."【3】

"It is because the sage is the stomach and not the eyes, so go and take this."【4】

……

In the snowy forest and empty mountain, the carriage was driving alone, the sound of Lang Lang reciting a book and baring his teeth after being beaten mixed together, echoing in the mountain forest.

Although he was a teacher for a day and a father for the rest of his life, the picture of the father being unkind and the son being unfilial was completely expected by He Bugui.

"Master, the recitation is over."

"Another one."

"No, no, no, ah! I'll recite it! I'll just recite it, quickly put away the ruler! Hiss——"

There is also one unexpected thing, He Bugui thought to himself.

Cloaked in the wind and snow into the world of mortals, there was a bustling apprentice beside him, and it was he who opened a hole in the lonely empty courtyard.
