Text Chapter 21 Luming Mountain

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Yo yo, the deer roars, eating apples in the wild!

    The name of Luming Mountain has nothing to do with these two poems. The reason why it is called Luming Mountain is because the mountain looks like a deer grazing with its head down.

    The mountain is not very high, but each of the twenty-six peaks has its own steepness.  Especially some dangerous places are even more shocking.

    This Luming Mountain does not produce much, let alone a scenic spot. Therefore, except for a dozen small villages surrounding the mountain, not many people pay attention to it.

    On this day, there was a young man on the road leading to Luming Mountain!

    It was noon, the hottest time of the day, but the hot sunshine had no effect on the young man.

    The young man¡¯s skin is fair, not only free of smoke, but also free of any beads of sweat.

    Walking to the foot of a big tree, the young man looked at Luming Mountain in front of him, picked up the water bag on his waist, and took a few sips of water.

    The water is very sweet, with a hint of honey flavor, which makes Fang Ling have an aftertaste.

    But what reminded him more was Hua Shuying¡¯s expression when she tied the water bag for him.

    It has been half a month since Yu Zeren was killed.  During this period of time, apart from practicing, Fang Ling also dealt with the Fang family's affairs.

    With Yu Zeren being beheaded, the Fang family once again became a topic that people in Dingfang City talked about.  Some people who were originally worried about the Fang family began to get closer to the Fang family. The most obvious one was Guan Wushang.

    Ten days ago, Jin Shangming, the lord of Dingfang City, came to the Fang family with the city's leading figures. Not only did he present the 5,000 taels of gold as a reward to Yu Zeren, but he also gave the Fang family a Baili tile!

    The so-called Baili card not only represents interests, but also represents identity.

    In the State of Lu, there was a strict grading system for the major families.  The Baili brand represents the family that owns this brand. It is a prominent family within Baili and enjoys a half-year profit and tax discount.

    In Dingfang City, there are only ten families that own Baili Pai.

    When the Baili plaque was hung again on the doorstep of Fang's family, Hua Shuying was so excited that she wanted to cry.  Although Fang Ling didn't care about this brand, seeing that Hua Shuying cared so much, he followed Hua Shuying's temperament and held a party with great fanfare.

    It is clear to the entire Dingfang City that the declining Fang family has once again returned to the top families in Dingfang City.

    In the past ten days, Fang Ling's cultivation has not made much progress. Except for the success in the Burning Blood Art, other things can only be said to be slightly improved.

    Although Fang Ling was very anxious to come to Luming Mountain to take out the twelve refined corpses, for the sake of stability, he still suppressed his temper and secretly left Dingfang City late last night.

    After all, corpse refining is shady, so the fewer people who know about it, the better!

    According to the map records, these twelve refined corpses are hidden in a cave in Dingjun Valley in Luming Mountain.  Fang Ling originally thought that when he arrived at Luming Mountain, he would be able to enter Dingjun Valley directly.  Only now did he realize that things were not as simple as he thought.

    Luming Mountain stretches for hundreds of miles, which valley is Dingjun Valley?

    As a good tour guide, if you don¡¯t know something, just ask.

    Therefore, a quarter of an hour later, in a small village at the foot of Luming Mountain, a young man collecting medicine appeared.

    This young man has a personable demeanor and a bright smile. He also gave the owner the salt that was most needed in the mountains. The forty-year-old Orion owner quickly regarded the young man as one of his own.

    Not only did he serve water and wine from the mountains, but he also asked his wife to cut off a piece of bacon hanging under the eaves to drink with it.

    And Orion¡¯s daughter, who was about the same age as a boy, her already rosy face became even more rosy.

    When Fang Ling skillfully asked about Dingjun Valley from a medicinal material, the Orion man shook his head like a rattle: "Dingjun Valley? What Dingjun Valley? I have been hunting on Luming Mountain all my life.  Never heard of this place.¡±

    "Xiao Ling, did your master remember the wrong place?"

    Fang Ling said with an air of certainty: "Uncle Lu, my master must have remembered correctly. Before I came this time, he specifically told me to go to Dingjun Valley, saying that he had gone there a few years ago.  At that time, some medicinal materials were not old enough, so we must collect those medicinal materials this time!¡±

    The Orion surnamed Lu scratched his head and said, "If that's the case, I'll ask for you."

    Orion is a simple and kind-hearted man who does what he says and immediately goes out to help Fang Ling ask about Dingjun Valley.

    But it was a pity that half an hour later, Orion gave Fang Ling a negative answer: Luming Mountain is not like Dingjun Valley at all.place.

    Could it be that Yu Zeren was looking in the wrong place?!

    Fang Ling thought about the map in his mind, and finally decided to go into the mountain to look for it himself.  These twelve refined corpses played a decisive role in improving his strength. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, Fang Ling did not want to give up.

    When the hunters heard about Fang Ling¡¯s idea of ??going into the mountains to collect herbs, they patted their chests and invited Fang Ling to go into the mountains with them, just as their village was preparing to go hunting together.

    Fang Ling had no objection to this invitation.

    In this matter, Fang Ling does not expect to get it done overnight.  The hunters were familiar with the entire mountain. If they followed them, they would be more likely to find Dingjun Valley, not to mention hiding in the hunting team would make themselves appear more inconspicuous.

    After resting for a night in the village, the hunting team began to gather at the threshing floor of the village.  For this small mountain village called Lujiacun, it is a big event for men to go hunting.

    The whole village gathered here and knelt down with serious faces. An incense burner was placed on the ground. An elderly man stepped forward, lit three incense sticks, and bowed respectfully towards the east, west, north, and south.  He prayed a few times and then kowtowed devoutly.

    As a passer-by, Fang Ling has been looking at this sacrificial ceremony with curious eyes.

    A total of more than thirty men were dispatched in Lujiacun for this hunting, all of them strong and strong. According to Fang Ling's evaluation, although these men have not undergone systematic training, each one of them has the second level of Qi training.

    "Xiao Ling, you must be careful in everything!" Just when Fang Ling was about to set off with the team, Uncle Lu's daughter Lu Yueying suddenly ran to Fang Ling and secretly stuffed a roasted yam egg into his arms.  The yam eggs dug out of the cave had a pleasant smell of vegetation and smoke, which burned his body. "If you see a ferocious beast, don't come near!"

    This meek and shy girl¡¯s words caused a burst of laughter.  Some vulgar men even laughed meaningfully, leaning back and forth.

    Although Fang Ling had traveled through time and had one or two sexual entanglements in college, the girl's affectionate behavior in front of everyone still made him feel embarrassed involuntarily, and he couldn't bear to brush it off.  The girl's kindness was so good that she nodded quickly.

    At this moment, someone heard someone say: "Uncle Lu, we are not going hunting this time. We are not taking people for fun. I think that instead of being a burden to this kid who can't even pick up a hunting knife, it's better to let him live happily."  Stay at home!"

    As soon as the man's words came out, someone immediately responded: "Brother Hu is right, Uncle Lu, this hunting is not a child's play, who will care about him then!"

    If this kind of stick is barbed, in the past, Fang Ling might have argued a few words for himself, but with the improvement of his cultivation, or as his state of mind has improved, he no longer cares about these harsh words.  .

    Just when he was about to use two tricks to prove that he was fully capable of protecting himself, he saw Lu Yueying put her hands on her hips and retorted fiercely to the first person who spoke: "Wang Hu, we people in the mountains talk about being kind to others.  What's more, Xiao Ling is a pharmacist! What nonsense are you talking about?"

    "Pharmacist? Humph, he's more like a little boy who collects herbs!" The man named Wang Hu is a strong man eight feet tall and exudes the aura of a beast. Although this man is still on the second level of Qi training  , but Fang Ling could feel that this man's power was at least 30% stronger than other men.

    "You" Lu Yueying's face turned red with anger, and he pointed at Wang Hu with his finger. His well-developed chest rose and fell violently, beating constantly.

    "Okay, you two, stop arguing!" Uncle Lu waved his hand and said: "It is our hunter's rule to help the pharmacist collect herbs. Get ready and go into the mountain."

    This Uncle Lu is quite prestigious among hunters. As soon as he spoke, even the unruly Wang Hu did not dare to say any more words.

    The group of people entered the mountain along the rugged path. These hunters were used to entering the mountain, so most of them were relaxed.  Wang Hu and several young people talked and laughed loudly, and some even sang while walking!

    And few of these people paid attention to Fang Ling who was walking behind the team, especially a group of young people.  In their words, two sarcastic remarks came from time to time: They are so skinny that they have only a few ounces of meat, let alone tigers and wolves, even a fox has to chase them all over the mountain

    Fang Ling smiled bitterly. These young people were targeting him probably because of Lu Yueying, that good-looking girl. They really wronged themselves.

    Fortunately, Fang Ling didn't want to have too many interactions with these hunters, so their attitude was just enough to keep Fang Ling silent.  Along the way, Fang Ling also pretended to find a few medicinal materials.

    The leader is Uncle Lu. He is extremely familiar with Luming Mountain and knows all the hunters.The division of responsibilities is even more orderly.

    "Everyone, take a rest!" When they came to a hillside, the sun had already risen above their heads. Uncle Lu looked at the sky and said in a deep voice.

    The hunters, who were already very tired from walking, sat on the rocks in twos and threes, chatting, drinking water and resting.  Fang Ling also took out his water bag and drank a few sips of water. His experience in the mountains this morning made him a little disappointed.

    He didn¡¯t see any terrain similar to Dingjun Valley.

    "Xiao Ling, don't be as knowledgeable as those boys!" Uncle Lu walked to Fang Ling's side and handed a piece of dried meat to Fang Ling while smiling.

    Fang Ling took the dried meat, smiled and said, "Don't worry, Uncle Lu, I'm fine."

    "Haha, it's okay. By the way, after this section of the road, there may be wild beasts. You are walking in the middle of the team. Even if you encounter a wild beast, don't panic. Stand in the middle, you know?"

    Uncle Lu said with a solemn expression at the end.

    Fang Ling understood Uncle Lu¡¯s good intentions and nodded: ¡°Uncle Lu, don¡¯t worry, I still have some ability to protect myself on Luming Mountain.¡±

    Uncle Lu patted Fang Ling on the shoulder hard and said with a smile: "Uncle believes you, but you'd better do what I say!"

    Fang Ling was helpless. The other person's previous words were obviously to comfort him.  But despite the good intentions, he couldn't say anything else.

    "ah!"

    A scream of horror suddenly came from not far away!
