Thirty years ago, my five or eight year old sister was chosen as a sacrifice to the monster.
The closest sister was sacrificed, and the old five's originally cheerful character changed at that time. He hated monsters and the person who chose his sister as a sacrifice. That person was the cultivator found outside by Tianxin sect in order to subdue monsters.
Twenty years ago, Tianxin sect finally asked a supreme elder of Kunlun sect to come to Wufeng island to calm the storm of monsters eating people. However, the hatred of the old five towards foreign practitioners has not been alleviated at all! In particular, he was reprimanded by meow and guzheng on the shore today. New and old resentments broke out together. Finally, he made a stupid thing to want guzheng and meow to be buried in the fish's belly.
After listening to the old five, Gu Zheng didn't embarrass him. After asking him some questions, he asked him to continue driving the speedboat.
"It's very kind of you, sir," meow whispered.
"What do you say?" Gu Zheng asked.
"If it were me, I wouldn't let him go so easily." meow said angrily.
"You still have a lot to learn in dealing with the world. Killing too much is not a good thing. It will encourage your cruelty, especially killing some people who don't die can make your heart numb and cold."
"Just like today's incident, this old five is a reckless man. He once had the idea of killing us. I don't know what you think about it. Anyway, for me, it's like walking in the forest and being climbed on his shoulder by an ant. I just brushed it away, but there's no need to take its life. But if I brushed the ant away, it still doesn't know whether it lives or not, then I In other words, it is not an ant that crawls on my shoulder, but a scorpion, so it must be a dead scorpion. "
Gu Zheng's voice fell to the ground. Meow meow smiled shyly: "Sir, what you said is so profound. Meow meow doesn't understand very well."
"It doesn't matter. Take your time if you don't understand."
Gu Zheng smiled faintly and looked into the distance. There was fog rising on the sea, which seriously affected his sight.
"Two guests, we are about to enter Wufeng island."
The fifth man took the initiative to speak and encountered the previous events. He completely calmed down. Now his heart is full of fear.
The speed of the speedboat slowed down and drove slowly into the fog. At the moment of entering the fog, it was like entering a different world. The light was a little dark and frightening, and even the sun in the air could not be seen.
Gu Zheng understood that this was driving into the immortal array.
The significance of the existence of fairy array is naturally to protect the islands from external forces. Even if ordinary people accidentally break into the immortal array, there is no way to break the array. They can only turn around inside, just like ghosts hitting the wall.
Although the fifth is not a cultivator, he often takes people to the island and walks slowly in the array in a speedboat. He is also skilled. After some twists and turns, the fog in front of me suddenly disappeared, the weather was still so sunny, and a green island in the distance came into view.
"What a big sea area! Such a big sea area is hidden by the immortal array, which is not something that ordinary people can do!" Gu Zheng sighed.
After passing the immortal array, the fifth man increased his horsepower and sped towards the island. There are also some fishing boats operating in the nearby waters. When the islanders see the old five's boat coming back, some greet from a distance, and some build a canopy to look at it.
The speedboat landed, and there were people on the shore who were specially responsible for receiving guests. After the old five handed over to him, he seemed to be afraid of the old dispute and left in a hurry.
"Are the guests invited to attend the 'Fish Festival'? Show your keepsake and I'll make arrangements for you." the Tianxin sect disciple in charge of receiving the guests smiled.
In the restaurant at the wharf, the lobby manager surnamed Yang is obviously a relative of leader Yang's family. He knows the identity of Gu Zheng. However, he didn't tell old five that Gu Zheng came to Wufeng island at the invitation of their leader. He just told old five that Gu Zheng was a distinguished guest.
Now the disciple in charge of reception, seeing that Gu Zheng took out the keepsake personally sent by the leader, immediately became extremely respectful.
"It's a distinguished guest. It's really disrespectful. I'll take you to the distinguished guest's residence now!"
The reception disciple made a gesture of invitation.
"Where are the distinguished guests? Is there any ordinary residence?" meow said strangely.
"Naturally, the keepsake presented by the guest is a keepsake personally issued by the leader. There are only two such keepsakes in total. Most of the keepsakes carried by people who come to the island are issued by the middle and senior level of the door." the receiving disciple said.
"Taoist friend, what's the matter with the" Fish Festival "you just said?" Gu Zheng asked.
In the face of Gu Zheng's inquiry, the reception disciple answered.
At this time of year, a rare fish in the sea will gather near Wufeng island to lay eggs. This fish looks like carp, but its body surface is covered with fine golden scales. The residents of Wufeng Island call them "golden scales".
Gold scale tastes delicious and can be used to refine pills to strengthen the body. It is a big income of Tianxin sect.
According to the reception disciples, this year's golden scale tide will appear the day after tomorrow and last for three days.
When the tide of golden scales recedes and the golden scales disappear, there will be a festival to celebrate the harvest of golden scales on Wufeng island. This seven day festival is the "fish harvest festival".
Yuhuo Festival is very lively. It is almost like a temple fair in the mainland. Some sects that have cooperative relations with Tianxin sect will come to Wufeng island to discuss the purchase of Jinlin before Yuhuo Festival. Some practitioners can receive the invitation of Tianxin sect to celebrate on Wufeng island.
No matter during the golden scale tide or the fish harvest festival, there are many customs and rules on Wufeng island. The receiving disciples told them all these things in detail.
"I didn't expect to catch up with such an interesting festival. Leader Yang didn't mention these things when he invited me."
Gu Zheng smiled and experienced different customs, which is also a beautiful thing that can make people feel comfortable.
"Our leader didn't tell Gu leader about this. I'm not sure when Gu leader will come back. After all, when the leader mentioned to me that there was a distinguished guest like you, he just said he hoped you could come!" the receiving disciple smiled.
"By the way, you said your leader invited two distinguished guests. Who is the other?"
"Ancient Taoist friends!"
Just as Gu Zheng asked about the reception of his disciples, a surprise call came.
Gu Zheng looked back and saw that Yang Zhenling, who was with several Tianxin sect disciples, was running towards him.
"Old Taoist friend, I didn't expect you to come to Wufeng island!"
Yang Zhenling, who rushed to the front, hugged Gu, and his face was full of happiness.
"Is Yang Daoyou surprised that I came to your Tianxin sect?" Gu Zheng joked.
"Slip of the tongue!" Yang Zhenling laughed: "as a leader of a school, the ancient leader must have a lot of things to do. I'm just surprised that you should come to Wufeng island so soon!"
"Yes, thinking about your good tea on Wufeng Island, I'll come as soon as possible!" Gu Zheng also laughed.
Yang Zhenling introduced his fellow disciples to Gu Zheng, and then said curiously, "ancient Taoist friend, who is this next to you?"
"He is my servant girl." Gu Zheng didn't hide it and was straightforward.
Yang Zhenling gave Gu Zheng a thumbs up and spoke in an envious tone: "when I first met the ancient leader, the ancient leader was alone and it was inconvenient to admit his identity. Now it's only more than a month, and the ancient leader's travel has become so beautiful!"
On the surface, Yang Zhenling is envious, but in fact, he is really shocked. After all, he has the ability to see through other people's accomplishments. However, this ability, which has been tried repeatedly in the past, first failed in Gu Zheng and today failed in meow, which really surprised him!
Can the people who can compete with Gu be ordinary people? Yang Zhenling wouldn't think so simply.
Gu Zheng just smiled and said nothing, but Miaomiao stared at Yang Zhenling: "aren't we distinguished guests? Will you let the distinguished guests stand here and talk to you all the time?"
Yang Zhenling patted his forehead: "it's impolite to forget this crop when you see an ancient Taoist friend."
After a sound, Yang Zhenling turned to the reception disciple and said, "you're busy. I'll receive the ancient leader myself."
"Yes."
When the reception disciples left, Yang Zhenling began to take Gu Zheng and meow to their residence.
The architectural style on the island is very simple. Most of the folk houses are still built with plants and trees. The so-called noble guest's residence is not luxurious, but it is very innovative, because the house is built on trees.
The big tree carrying the noble guest's residence is too thick for ten people to hold, and it's too high for people to see its top.
The trees are covered with pink flowers like Datura, which looks very bright. There is also a smell of flowers in the air, which makes people relaxed and happy.
Circling up the steps built by the tree, Yang Zhenling took Gu Zheng and meow into the tree house.
The size of the tree house is like a normal residential house. It is built between several branches of a big tree. Although it is relatively simple, it is clean.
There are windows on all sides of the tree house, through which you can almost see the panoramic view of Wufeng island.
"Are you satisfied with this place?" Yang Zhenling asked.
"Satisfied! There are beautiful flowers outside the window, and you can overlook Wufeng island from above. There is no better sea view room!" Gu Zheng said with a smile.
"It's good to be satisfied. I'm also worried that ancient Taoist friends think it's simple!" Yang Zhenling also smiled.
"Who lives there?" Gu Zheng pointed out the window.
About 50 meters away from the tree house where Gu Zheng is located, there is another same flower tree. On the relatively thin flower tree, there is another tree house.
Recalling what the disciples said before, Gu Zheng felt that the tree house opposite should be another VIP invited by leader Yang.
"I don't know who lives there. When I saw the ancient Taoist friends just now, in fact, I just came back from outside. However, there is another VIP room on Wufeng Island, which should be a person with status!" Yang Zhenling said.
"Yang Daoyou, what do you think this is?"
Like a magic trick, Gu Zheng took out a bamboo about three feet long.
"Kunlun bamboo!"
Yang Zhenling was overjoyed. When Gu Zheng promised to visit Wufeng island in longzhan square, he would bring him a piece of Kunlun bamboo.
"Thank you, ancient Taoist friends!"
Happily playing with Kunlun bamboo, Yang Zhenling didn't forget to thank him.
"Yang Daoyou is very kind."
Gu Zhengsheng said, "since the residence has been arranged, Yang Daoyou will take me to see leader Yang!"
The Tianxin sect is located in the forest with the most lush plants on Wufeng island. The sect doesn't look big. All buildings are stone and wood structures, with an ancient smell.
Gu Zheng was not familiar with leader Yang. At first, when he was in Kunlun Mountain, he went to find Yang Zhenling to get to know leader Yang. He couldn't bear the enthusiasm of leader Yang.
Meeting again may be because Yang Zhenling told leader Yang that Gu Zheng didn't like other people's special enthusiasm. Although leader Yang's enthusiasm was reserved, it still made Gu Zheng feel overwhelmed.
In desperation, Gu Zheng had to take the initiative to ask Yang Zhenling to take a look at the scenery of the island, so that he could come out of Tianxin sect.
"Sir, why are people of Tianxin sect so enthusiastic?"
Outside the Mountain Gate of Tianxin sect, meow and meow are curious.
"Do you mean Yang Zhenling or leader Yang?" Gu Zheng asked.
At this moment, there are only Gu Zheng and Miaomiao outside the mountain gate. As for Yang Zhenling who wants to take them for sightseeing, because he has just returned to Wufeng island from outside, there are still some things to report to the elders in the door, so Gu Zheng and Miaomiao need to wait for him for a while.
"Both," meow said.
"Yang Zhenling is really hospitable. Coupled with our similar age, we have experienced some things together on the Kunlun road. His enthusiasm should not have too many other ingredients."
Gu Zheng gave a loud voice and then said, "as for leader Yang, his enthusiasm has a lot of other things. If I am not a leader of a school and there is no outstanding performance on Kunlun Mountain, I don't think he will have the current enthusiasm. This can be seen from his construction of guest rooms of different grades on the island!"
"So what's his passion and plot for Mr.?" meow asked again.
"What's the plot? It's really hard to say! Some people are enthusiastic about you. They just want to have some difficulties in the future. When they speak to you, you will not be able to refuse them. The purpose of some people's enthusiasm for you will soon appear. Anyway, we have come to Wufeng island. If he has a plot for me, he may appear soon." Gu Zheng said.
"Sir, I don't like this purposeful enthusiasm." meow shook his head.
"I don't like it either, so I came out." Gu Zheng smiled.
Without letting Gu Zheng and meow wait too long, Yang Zhenling, who was busy, appeared outside the mountain gate.
"Yang Daoyou, where are you going to take us first?" Gu Zheng asked.
"Take you to the seaside first!" Yang Zhenling said.
"Why go to the seaside?" Gu Zheng asked again.
"It's getting late, and it's time for all the fishermen to come back. Don't you want to see what specialties are on Wufeng island? Fish is also a specialty on Wufeng Island, but I don't know if there are any fish that can satisfy Gu Daoyou."
Yang Zhenling's words made Gu Zheng interested, and the three immediately walked to the beach.
