Chapter 47 Getting ready to go home
Deep in Tianlang Mountain.
The forest is deep and luxuriant, and the ground is slippery.
Seven gray figures walked here, each with a sword on their waist, their clothes were dirty and messy, and their faces looked tired.
The leader is a man in his late thirties, quite handsome.
These people are the disciples of Elder Tong, and they went into the mountain to look for traces of Immortal Qi.
There were originally three teams, but they happened to meet on the road and got together.
It’s just that after days on the mountain road, we can’t eat well or sleep well, and everyone is tired.
"Senior Brother Qin, when will we stop if we keep going like this? Why don't we take a rest!" A teenage boy said.
As this young man spoke up, everyone complained.
"Have a rest? Master walked forward alone because I was too slow to wait. Instead of relieving Master's worries, you and I are lazy. How can we repay Master's kindness?" Senior Brother Qin said with a straight face as he lectured Junior Brother.
"It's not our credit for finding the Immortal Master. Master will only reward you, so how can he take care of us?" Someone sneered.
"That's right! Senior Brother Qin, your biological sister has married into the master's family. Who knows that the master treats you as a family member and treats me as a coolie!" Someone else said.
As soon as this man spoke up, no one complained, but everyone burst into laughter.
"Isn't that family? Speaking of which, our master and senior brother Qin are masters and disciples outside, but brothers at home! They are very harmonious!" Someone followed and ridiculed the matter of removing ashes.
"Junior Brother Liu, be careful! Once you are a teacher, you will always be a father. If you continue to talk nonsense, don't blame me for not caring about the friendship between the same disciples!" Some people defended Elder Tong.
Seeing that the noise was getting louder, Senior Brother Qin directly drew out his long sword, using his energy all over his body, he actually cut down the big tree as thick as a bowl with one strike.
"If anyone talks nonsense again, don't blame me, Qin Ruzhongjian, for not recognizing people!"
Qin Ruzhong showed his hand and immediately shocked everyone.
After that, although some people whispered, no one dared to contradict him in person.
The group continued to move forward. Two days later, they were caught in a mountain rain. Seeing that their morale was about to collapse again, they suddenly smelled the fragrance of flowers.
Everyone was shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to take a look.
I saw green grass in front, green trees, birds singing and flowers fragrant, streams flowing, tigers and deer walking together, it was like a blessed land.
"This must be the habitat of Immortal Master Qi!" Qin Ruzhong showed joy and said immediately: "Everyone shouts 'Master' in unison... No! Don't collide with Immortal Master!"
"No! Don't rush into the immortal master! Maybe the master and the immortal master are discussing a night together..."
"You don't want your life?" Before the man could finish speaking, someone covered his mouth.
Qin Ruzhong just ignored it and said in a deep voice: "Everyone is divided into three teams. Each of them will search for it. We will meet here after half an hour."
Everyone immediately agreed, cheered up, and entered the blessed land.
After half an hour, no one came back to join them. Instead, they gathered at the entrance of the cave.
"Junior brother Liu, you are always smart, go and investigate first." Qin Ruzhong ordered.
"Why don't you go?" Although Junior Brother Liu is young, he is not stupid.
"Are you not convinced?" Qin Ruzhong's eyes darkened.
"Why should I be convinced? In the past, Senior Brother Jiang led us to do things, such as eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling. What happened? You will only drive me to wait, and there will be no benefit at all! How can I convince you?" Junior Brother Liu choked back.
For a moment, everyone agreed with Junior Brother Liu.
Qin Ruzhong glanced at the crowd and found that no one was on his side, deeply hating his lack of prestige.
"Then let's all go in together. We just need to keep silent so as not to disturb the immortal master." Qin Ruzhong compromised.
There's nothing much to say about this, so everyone naturally agrees.
A long dragon entered the cave, and after a while, it reached the depths of the cave.
I saw a few rays of light falling from the top of the cave, and black crows were circling. There was a corpse on the stone platform in the middle of the cave, with not much flesh and blood left.
For a moment, everyone was frightened and looked at Qin Ruzhong.
"Come with me to see it." Qin Ruzhong was also scared, his face was extremely ugly, and his voice was trembling.
Everyone came forward in a hurry, and the black crows flew away.
The clothes on the corpse were in tatters and the sternum was broken. There was not much flesh left on the head, his eyes were hollow, his hair and beard were dirty and white, and he could vaguely tell that he was an old man.
"Is it Master Qi? Senior Brother Qin, your sister... you are the most familiar with Master Qi..." Junior Brother Liu's voice also trembled.
"Yes... it should be." Qin Ruzhong carefully identified his clothes and answered.
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
"What about Master?" someone asked.
"Let's not disturb this place. Let's go out and look for it first." Qin Ruzhong stood up and walked out.
Everyone quickly followed.
When we got outside, we scanned again and found only wild deer and large insects. How could there be half a human being?
The seven people were helpless and didn't know how to deal with it. He had no choice but to continue to expand the search area, shouting "Master, Master" non-stop.
Unfortunately, it was completely useless. At night, everyone ate something in a hurry and stayed vigil to sleep.
The next day, I continued to search around the blessed land, but still found nothing.
On the third day, Qin Ruzhong did not dare to delay any longer and planned to divide into two teams. One team would stay here and the other team would go down the mountain to report.
After arguing for a long time, we still didn't come up with a charter. Firstly, everyone is afraid, and secondly, Qin Ruzhong lacks prestige.
"What are you arguing about?"
Suddenly there was a voice, and everyone followed the sound and saw Pei Ning holding a sword, with a wretched figure and a tired look on his face.
And there was someone beside her, also in dirty clothes. It was Lin Zhuanlun who was weaving mats and selling shoes!
"Where's Elder Tong?" Peining stepped forward with a tired voice.
Everyone remained silent and focused their attention on Qin Ruzhong.
"Master hasn't arrived yet. Maybe he got sidetracked. He should be here in two days." Qin Ruzhong defended Tong Ruhu.
"Elder Tong is the most useless, I know it." Pei Ning was extremely disdainful and asked: "Have you found Master Qi?"
The disciples in gray clothes looked at me, then I looked at you, and finally they looked at Qin Ruzhong.
"Master Immortal... just follow me." Qin Ruzhong sighed and led the way.
After entering the cave, Pei Ning saw the immortal master's remains and immediately went to take a look.
"I have never met Master Qi, are you sure this is Master Qi?" Peining looked at Qin Ruzhong.
"Probably...right?" Qin Ruzhong had sweat on his forehead.
"Probably? Then it seems that your sister's hard work has been in vain." Peining sneered.
"It's better than someone who devotes himself to weaving mats and selling shoes!" Qin Ruzhong immediately retorted.
"Senior Brother Qin, even though I come from a humble background, I have never done anything wrong!" Lin Bai immediately became anxious, "I dare to ask, where is the respected master? Where are the relics of the immortal master?"
"What do you mean? Do you think that my master has robbed the immortal master's belongings?" Qin Ruzhong glared at Lin Bai angrily.
"Humph, I didn't say, why are you guilty?" Lin Bai said.
"Huang Kou Shuzi, do you dare to insult my master by stealing corpses?" Qin Ruzhong unsheathed his sword, pointed it at Lin Bai, and said angrily: "Do you want to test the sharpness of my sword?"
"My sword is not bad at all!" Lin Bai also drew his sword, but stood behind Pei Ning.
"Put down your swords!" Peining was very impatient.
She spoke without looking at anyone else. She squatted down and opened the remains of Master Qi.
Under the remains, there was a black human figure, obviously soaked in blood.
But there are three small characters engraved on it: Jiuyin Mountain.
"Jiuyin Mountain?" Peining thought silently for a while and looked at everyone.
Everyone shook their heads, having never heard of this place.
"Anyway, let's go back to the Mountain Gate first." Peining sighed, "Xiao Linzi, Junior Brother Liu, Junior Brother Jia, you follow me down the mountain. The rest of you stay here and don't let the immortal master's body be damaged again."

"Finally I can go home." Lin Bai sat down on the ground, thinking about what gift he should bring to Xiuxiu.
