Chapter 302: Guarding the Mountaintop
It was late at night, and the three people on the roof were still discussing some of their feelings on the road of cultivation.
That night, all three of them said they had gained a lot. It turned out that geniuses also encounter setbacks on the road of cultivation.
Xia Yu said that all the difficulties Shi Xiaoliu encountered on his spiritual path were a great inspiration to him.
After all, after many years, he also wants to accept disciples.
After hearing this, Shi Xiaoliu looked at Xia Yu speechlessly: "Xia Yu, you are indeed a person who thinks deeply and foresightedly. Right now, you are considering what will happen several years later."
“If you don’t think about the future, you will have immediate worries.
This means that my life is going smoothly now, and I can naturally look forward to things in the distant future. ”
Shi Xiaoliu thought about it seriously and said, "I can't think about things that far in the future. I only think about what's in front of me."
"Sister Lan, have you ever thought about what will happen after many years?"
Xia Yu turned to ask Shi Zelan, he believed that Shi Zelan must have some plans for the future.
"I dare not think about it. Right now I just want to practice well and break the curse around me as soon as possible."
Shi Zelan's answer made Xia Yu sigh: "You two are too narrow-minded, which is not conducive to your cultivation."
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan stared at him at the same time: "Didn't we say we wanted to learn from you?
But when you talk about things that will happen several years later, I can't even take care of the present, so how can I have time to think about the future? ”
Xia Yu looked at the two of them and said, "Xiao Liu, our spiritual roots are different. My situation is not suitable for you. I can't mislead you.
Sister Lan, we originally had similar qualifications, but you just happen to have some kind of curse on you.
Tell me yourself, if I understood your situation, would I still have time to chat with you guys about all sorts of things? ”
Shi Zelan waved at Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu and said, "Go back. When it comes to cultivation, the master is leading the way, but cultivation is entirely up to you.
Time is precious. I want to meditate and practice. You guys can do as you please. ”
Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yufei returned to their respective rooftops. They had no intention of going back to their rooms to meditate and practice at the moment.
In early winter, the first snow fell on Shi Zelan's eyebrows. She opened her eyes with an expression of disbelief on her face.
Last night, the moonlight was so beautiful that she thought the first snow would take at least a few days to arrive.
Shi Xiaoliu stood up and flew down directly. He walked to the edge of the mountain and listened to the movement below.
After a while, he passed the message to Shi Zelan: "There are many soldiers at the foot of the mountain. They must have discovered the gold mine."
Shi Zelan flew to Shi Xiaoliu's side. She listened carefully to the noise and whispered, "Are there about 1,000 or 2,000 soldiers coming?"
"There should still be quite a few people over there in the canyon. I hope the officers and soldiers can successfully encircle and suppress them this time."
"Xiao Liu, do you think there will still be some fish that slip through the net in this operation?"
"The forest is so deep that we have never reached the innermost part."
"The innermost part should be the forest."
When Xia Yu came over, he listened to the noise at the foot of the mountain and whispered, "Many soldiers have come. Judging from the way they are surrounding us, the foot of the mountain is the final battlefield between them and the bandits."
The three of them all looked worried. Xia Yu said to Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan, "It's snowing now, so it's not convenient to do anything extra."
The three of them stood at the edge of the mountain for a while, then sat at the edge of the mountain for a while, and finally returned to Shi Zelan's roof.
They stood on the roof and looked down at the mountain, and could vaguely see many figures.
Shi Xiaoliu said to Shi Zelan and Xia Yu: "We have done everything we can.
Right now, all we have to do is protect the safety of the top of the mountain. ”
Shi Zelan and Xia Yu nodded in agreement, but they couldn't just sit there doing nothing.
So Shi Xiaoliu started flipping through the herbal book, Shi Zelan was drawing talismans, and Xia Yu was drawing formations on paper.
The three of them each had their own things to do, and when it got dark that day, there was no major movement either on the mountain or below.
The first snow was not heavy. It fell a little in the morning and then stopped.
At dusk, snowflakes began to fall again, and this time the snow was heavier.
Shi Xiaoliu and the other two were still sitting on the roof, watching the snowflakes fall on the trees, decorating them beautifully.
They listened to the noise below the mountain and heard that a fire had been lit at the foot of the mountain.
Xia Yu flicked his hand upwards, and snowflakes fell on the protective barrier.
Shi Zelan looked at him and said to him and Shi Xiaoliu, "I'm meditating on the roof. Can you guys go back to your room and meditate?"
Shi Xiaoliu shook his head: "Let's stay together. If anything happens, we can take care of each other."
Xia Yu expressed the same idea, so Shi Zelan nodded silently and said, "Then I will start meditating and practicing."
After Shi Zelan started meditating and practicing, after a while, Shi Xiaoliu also started meditating and practicing, and finally Xia Yu followed suit.
A night passed just like that.
Shi Zelan opened her eyes and saw snow on the roof of the residence of Master Dezheng and Master Shanzheng.
She waved her hand and swept all the snow off the roof.
After Xia Yu opened his eyes and looked at Shi Zelan, he flew to the edge of the mountain to listen to the movements below.
After Shi Xiaoliu woke up, he asked Shi Zelan, "My dream was full of war and battle."
Shi Zelan glanced at him and pointed to the edge of the mountain: "There shouldn't have been any fighting last night."
Shi Zelan flew to the edge of the mountain and stood there. Xia Yu whispered to her, "I just heard from the soldiers below that they took action yesterday, but a lot of the bandits escaped in the end."
When Shi Xiaoliu flew down, he happened to hear Xia Yu's words. He frowned and said, "I'm afraid this mountain will be in chaos for a while."
Shi Zelan looked at them and said with certainty: "With the gold mine, this mountain will not be peaceful."
The three of them sighed at the same time. They would no longer be so free and at ease in the future.
As they were talking, they saw soldiers escorting a group of bandits passing by the foot of the mountain.
The three of them listened attentively to the voices coming from the bottom of the mountain, and heard a soldier say, "There are another thousand men coming to support us."
"Boss, is that gold mine big?"
"Am I not with you all the time?"
"Boss, will we arrange to guard the gold mine?"
"It's better not to. I still like my current life."
Shi Xiaoliu sighed and said, "Let's find an opportunity to see the scale of the gold mine so that we can make some plans in advance."
"good."
Shi Zelan and Xia Yu had the same idea, but they still had to stay on the top of the mountain for the next few days.
The bustle at the foot of the mountain has more or less nothing to do with the people on the top of the mountain.
The bottom of the canyon was also very noisy, and the prefect did not expect to have made such a great contribution.
However, he decided not to get involved in the gold mine and just wait for the right person to take over. Then he could return to Yangzhou Prefecture safely.
At noon, the snow fell heavier and heavier, and some soldiers ran up the mountain.
Shi Xiaoliu and the other two were watching their movements. When they saw them turn and walk up the mountain nearby, they all relaxed at the same time.
