Chapter 143

~8 min read 1,504 words

The sun slanted to the west, and the sunset dyed the western mountains red. Tan Bazhang sat on the eaves of the General's Temple, staring at the mountains under the sunset.

Liu Xiaolou originally wanted to slap him twice to wake him up, but felt that he seemed to have woken up, so he didn't say anything, jumped up, sat beside him, and watched the mountains silently with him.

For a long time, Tan Bazhang asked: "Xiaolou, how did you do it, letting Elder Cai come forward to mediate for their three sects?"

Liu Xiaolou said: "It's just a coincidence. Didn't I go to the Danxia Cave Heaven last time? Just happened to know Elder Cai."

Tan Bazhang asked: "How could it be so easy? What did you pay?"

Liu Xiaolou smiled: "It's really a coincidence, helped Elder Cai do a small thing, don't have to take it to heart. It's just that you were detained in Mount Yue for so long, I feel very uneasy."

Tan Bazhang shook his head: "How can I blame you? It's because I couldn't hold back, had wild thoughts. The more I looked forward to it, the more confused I became, forgetting who I was. These days, she also came to the detention place to see me..."

"She?"

"That girl from the Guan family..."

"What did she say to you?"

"She didn't say anything, she just looked at me... It was this look that woke me up. I finally remembered who I was..."

"Brother Tan..."

"Xiaolou, you can't forget your roots no matter what you do. I forgot my roots! I thought that living outside Mount Shenwu for a few days, I became a person of Mount Shenwu, thought that helping Jiuniang do things, I had the capital to climb high branches, thought that my brothers you and Hongqing became sons-in-law of high-ranking families, so I also had hope of entering a high-ranking family..."

"Brother Tan, I want to tell you something."

"I was really carried away. This time being locked in the Zhemei Sect, it was locked well, it woke me up... If it weren't for your face, maybe they would have killed me already?"

"Brother Tan! I want to tell you something!"

"Ah? Oh... you say, you say, I'm listening..."

"You just said that I and Brother Wei became sons-in-law of high-ranking families, this sentence is wrong."

"How?"

"Brother Wei didn't climb a high branch. The female disciple of the inner sect of Mount Tianmu he climbed up with has never given him a status. He has been hanging on so unclearly. Why didn't he go back to Wulong Mountain with me when I went back? He was afraid of being laughed at by his brothers... And me, I did get a status, but in the Su family, few people look at me straight, and I can also tell you, Brother Tan, this live-in son-in-law was recruited by the Su family for an emergency. Their emergency is about to pass. In less than two years, they will give me a letter of divorce! Haha, I will be divorced!"

Tan Bazhang looked at Liu Xiaolou blankly, and the two suddenly laughed, laughing more and more uncontrollably, laughing until they were almost out of breath.

After laughing for a long time, Tan Bazhang said: "I intend to return to Wulong Mountain, not on a whim. In the prison of the Zhemei Sect, I thought so. I miss my Longma Waterfall, miss Wuchao River, miss Tiankeng Drum, miss Guanjing Rock, miss Wulong Cave, and your Ganzhu Ridge. I will go dig bamboo shoots to eat when I have nothing to do, haha..."

Liu Xiaolou nodded: "The bamboo shoots in my place are a delicacy in the world."

Tan Bazhang continued: "I also miss Valley Master Zuo, miss the seven seniors of Mount Guzhang, miss Senior Jiang, miss Brother Shi, miss Old Hu Du, miss the honest brother in Xikou Village, he is really honest, haha... I even miss that guy from Lingling, this stingy guy, why would I miss him? By the way, when I go back, I will go to Yueyang Square to see Mother Zhang and Sister Qing. Xiaolou, when will you go back with me?"

Hearing him read one familiar place name and person name after another, Liu Xiaolou couldn't help but yearn for it, and said: "I also want to go back, but it's not easy to leave now. I have to wait for the Su family to write me that letter of divorce. A letter of divorce is worth ten thousand gold."

Tan Bazhang said: "Then I can't wait for you, I'll leave tonight."

Liu Xiaolou took out five spirit stones and stuffed them into Tan Bazhang's arms: "This is what you deserve."

Tan Bazhang was pleasantly surprised: "How come there are more? Didn't the Yin family matter already give it?"

Liu Xiaolou said: "The Zhemei Sect locked you for so many days, how can I not give some compensation?"

Tan Bazhang didn't pretend: "Good, I will seclude myself for cultivation when I go back."

Liu Xiaolou said: "That's right, for us loose cultivators, everything is fake, only cultivation is real."

Tan Bazhang said he would leave, Liu Xiaolou sent him all the way, sent him thirty miles away, and then laughed and said goodbye.

On the way back, he also began to think, thinking of Dai Sanren, thinking of Valley Master Zuo, thinking of Longshan Loose Cultivator, thinking of Wei Hongqing, thinking of Xing Dejun, thinking of Sister Qing, thinking of Uncle Tian, thinking of the teacher who passed away three years ago...

After the remaining half a month, the Su family, after careful consideration, and after discussing with Meiling Fuhu Gate, Mount Yue Zhemei Sect, and Mount Hu Zhaiyue Sect, finally adopted Elder Cai's suggestion and changed the names of the three mountains.

Meiling returned to the old name of sixty years ago, which is Liang Ling, Mount Yue was renamed Meiling, and Mount Hu was renamed Mount Yue.

After this, the Liang Ling Fuhu Gate, Meiling Zhemei Sect, and Mount Yue Zhaiyue Sect are no longer troubled by the reputation, and the disciples under the sect will no longer fight because of this. Of course, the contradictions and disputes accumulated over decades cannot be easily resolved by changing a mountain name, but this highly symbolic first step has finally been taken, and Mount Shenwu is full of joy.

The Su family held a grand banquet in Gualu Hall, and all the vassal families and sects arrived. At the same time, some noble families who were relatively close to the Su family also rushed to celebrate, including the Jiao family who were relatively close to the Su family.

Tiger-Headed Jiao is the direct son of the Jiao family, naturally coming with him. He wanted to see Jiuniang, but Jiuniang was not there, busy with the Guhu sesame, preparing to use this to fight the Yin family, so he retreated from the banquet and came to the Qingyu Furong Garden to see Liu Xiaolou. As long as it was someone around Jiuniang, he felt particularly close.

When entering the door, he ran into Sect Master Liang leaving the garden. Tiger-Headed Jiao bowed to salute, and Sect Master Liang was also in a good mood, patted him on the shoulder, said a few kind words, and said goodbye to Liu Xiaolou again.

"Why did Sect Master Liang come?"

"He came to give me a gift."

"Actually, it's quite good to be a son-in-law, quite respected."

"Do you believe the words you said yourself?"

"Hehe... By the way, Xiaolou, I heard that Bazhang left?"

"Hmm, left."

"Is it because he was humiliated by seeking marriage from the Guan family? Actually, he doesn't have to be like this. What kind of thing is that Guan family girl? Think about it, can someone who can see eye to eye with your Su San be good?"

"He didn't just return to Wulong Mountain because he was rejected for marriage. He missed Wulong Mountain."

"What's good about Wulong Mountain? Neither spiritual springs nor spiritual eyes, nor exotic flowers and rare herbs, rare spiritual materials, what are you going back for? If he is not used to living on Mount Shenwu, let him go to my Lion Ridge, I will accompany him to tour the scenery, fine wine and delicacies, isn't it happy?"

"Can you match a good woman from your Jiao family for him?"

"This... Xiaolou, you know I can't be the master."

"Know, know, I just said it casually, Brother Tiger doesn't have to take it seriously."

"... Ha, this is the big white you told Tan Brother about? White head and white brain, really interesting!"

"Quack!"

"Yo, Xiaolou look, it's still staring at me, it really has some spirituality... That black cat is also brought by your Wulong Mountain? On the eaves... you don't know?"

"... It's a wild cat from Black Cat Mountain, how did it get here?"
