With astonishing physical strength and the passion for revenge, the six of them, after a long journey, flew all the way through Bishui, Lanke, Civil Rights, Shang Zhou, Yucheng, Yangshan, Tonshan, and Jiuli Mountain. Finally, at noon on the second day, on the thirteenth of May, the six of them entered the Xuzhou Gupeng.

It was midsummer in May. This afternoon's scorching sun was still as vicious as before. It was so hot that it made people's bodies burn, and tar oil was on their heads. Not to mention the people in the city, even the yellow land within the ancient city was steaming from the scorching sun, making people not dare to stay there for long. They couldn't even think of finding the ants that were crawling. Of course, this "Shu East Six Heroes" that had experienced wind, food, and night was also unable to bear the stifling heat of this abnormal world. Horses, however, are horses. They have a mediocre and docile nature, and are always willing to live under someone else's crotch, becoming faithful partners with their master.

However, these thoughts that were deeply buried in the brain of this handsome horse were completely unknown to the "six heroes of the east of Shu"! They only knew that they were exhausted and embarrassed while riding, and that they themselves lacked energy! However, what they wanted to know the most was who it was that had killed them for such a heinous crime! They had to find the root and find the root to conquer the world. However, at this very moment, the concerns of the six of them seemed to gradually fade away, to the point that it seeped into their weary journey! They all understood. In the face of reality, what was the use of worry and irritation? He could only calm his heart and calmly deal with it. He could only silently walk his own path, waiting for time and space to break through the shackles of all his troubles and wash away all these dark facts.

When everyone heard these words, how could they not be satisfied with it? All of them nodded in agreement.

However, "Black Swallow in Sky" Zhang Yunhai thought for a while and said: "Can we lead our horses through this forest?"

"Why not! "There must be a way for the horse to get to the mountain!" Huang Shiying said impatiently.

"Alright! Let's hurry up and enter the mountain! " Wu Tianba got off the horse first and said, "There is a saying, 'The wise man loves water, and the benevolent man loves the mountain'. We can also take a look at the beauty of this mountain. "Why not?"

"I have heard that 'the mediocre have nothing to worry about, the wise have nothing to worry about.'" Do we have the leisure to go up to the Cloud Dragon Mountain today? " Sun Kexing said to the others in worry.

At this moment, everyone dismounted from their horses. Hearing his fifth brother's words, Ye Jinfeng turned his head to look at him and said: "Fifth brother! I understand your feelings! However, since ancient times, there has always been a saying, "The heavens do not speak, the earth does not speak, the water does not speak." We are not wise, we are not mediocre, we are incompetent, we are not benevolent! Why do you say that? It's just because we've been out for so many days and couldn't capture that killer, but he's always leading us by the nose! We are really stupid! That night at Mount Song, we almost caught him, but we let him escape! Is this really our incompetence! No! That was just a fluke! One day, this cunning guy will fall at our feet! "

The five of them nodded as they listened to their big brother. At the same time, they led their horses up the stone steps.

At this time, Sun Kexing quietly said: "That's right! What Big Brother said is also the bitter loyalty in our hearts! How can we leave the world at that? Chivalry is our warrior's way! "

"When we catch him, we must ask him until the end! Why did he do such a heinous thing? Who was it? What are their intentions? " The more Ouyang Qingfeng spoke, the angrier he got. He closed the iron fan with a "pounce" sound!

Just then, Wu Tianba continued, "Big brother had a dream, and said that the killer was a powerful expert from a neighbouring country! I think that person must be from the other countries of the Western Regions! "

"How can you tell?" Ye Jinfeng anxiously asked Wu Tianba.

"Because not only have I tried his sword skills, I have also directly sparred with his inner force! He has a vicious palm of power — — Desert Golden Sand! "

"AHH!" Southern Desert Golden Sand Palm! It was the golden sand blood imprint of the Sa family's ancestor! Why did second brother only start talking about it now? " Ouyang Qingfeng could not help but exclaimed.

"Sigh!" Look how busy things have been these past few days! I only remembered to tell you today! " Wu Tianba said with a hint of embarrassment.

"It doesn't matter! It was good to know that he knew the Southern Desert Golden Sand Palm! I think he must be from Yale! " Ye Jinfeng guessed.

"Hm!" It's very possible! " Ouyang Qingfeng agreed as he closed the iron fan, and said, "The Yale clansmen have always had a huge relationship with our Central Plains, they always have the ambition to annex the Central Plains!"

"AHH!" "It's much cooler now!" Huang Shiying suddenly pointed to the words on a boulder in the forest, "This was originally called Huang Mao Gang! Could it be that our Huang Family's cottage is here? "

Hearing that, Ye Jinfeng could not help but change his words: "Alright! Let's not talk about these headaches for a while! Go faster! "

After saying that, the six of them led their horses and sped up! However, they didn't go far before they gradually slowed down again. The steps were getting higher and harder to walk. However, compared to the Bashu Mountains and Rivers that they had once traversed, this mountain was much easier to traverse. It was as if they were on a par with the clouds and could ascend to the heavens with a single step.

"There are many stories in the small town and they are filled with joy and harmony. If you come to a small city, you will have a great harvest. It looked like a painting, but it sounded like a song. The realm of life was truly beautiful, and it was already included here. Talking about it, talking about it, the story of the small city was really good! Invite your friends to come and be guests together! "

"Hey!" This song is pretty nice to listen to! " Huang Shiying could not help but exclaim.

Following the sound of the song, the crowd couldn't help but raise their heads to look, only to see a woman holding a zither playing a small song by the cliff in front of them.

"How rare! To be able to hear such an intoxicating song here, it's truly a relief to be able to relax! "

Very quickly, the song had left the people, as if it was a dream, gently going around, drifting, and disappearing in the forest of the Cloud Dragon Mountain... However, the six of them, especially Ye Jinfeng, never expected that the woman who played the zither would actually be his uncle Ye Guobin's eldest daughter, Yelia. It was his eldest cousin, the wife of the Yanzhou thorny history Yuchi Continent! Not long after the six of them passed by her, the mysterious Yelya girl also floated away!

At this time, Sun Kexing said weakly: "It was so hot in the city just now, I didn't want to eat or drink at all! This was cool! But in my stomach, I feel hungry! "

"Cough!" "Fifth brother!" Zhang Yunhai continued, "So what if we're hungry for when we've arrived at such a refreshing place like this?"

"Fourth brother!" There was a saying, "Man is iron, food is steel, and one does not eat until one is panicky"! You won't eat! "We'll be eating soon!" Wu Tianba joked.

"Huh? I say, second brother! In this wilderness, there was no one who would set up a stall to sell food! What do you eat? " Zhang Yunhai asked.

"Aiya! Fourth brother! This is the famous mountain of the Xuzhou, with its green mountains and lush forests, along the west bank there is even the Cloud Dragon Lake, how can it be called a desolate mountain and wild mountains! " Wu Tianba said happily.

"I understand what second brother means." Ouyang Qingfeng said as he walked, "There are many famous people in this world! Since there is Buddha, there must be Temple, then what are we afraid of? "

"Indeed! If you see a temple, the six of us will definitely eat and rest to resolve this! " Zhang Yunhai said as he looked around.

"Hey!" Brothers! Look how comfortable it is to lie down on this flagstone! We might as well rest here before we go! " Huang Shiying led his horse and pointed to a piece of smooth mountain rock behind them.

When the others heard this, they couldn't help but turn around to look. They saw a rectangular, smooth stone platform lying under the rock wall that their sixth brother was pointing to. There was absolutely no problem for more than ten people to get on this stone platform! And it must be cool and comfortable! On the wall of the cave, there were three large red words carved — Dragon Head Rock! It was indeed a very good resting place! How could the weather not move his heart? However, Ye Jinfeng turned his head and smiled: "Sixth brother! Don't worry! There will be a good place for you to rest! "

Hearing that, Huang Shiying nodded his head, he could only lead his horse and follow the group, hoping to find a better place to rest.

"This is bad!" Huang Shiying covered his stomach and said, "I want to pee and drag you all over and over again!"

"No way!" Ye Jinfeng turned his head and said to him, "You urinate on the side of Cloud Dragon Mountain. You better hold it in! Find a temple and then settle it! "

Not long after, the six of them arrived at a temple. As he looked around, he saw that there were four big words carved on the temple board — Xing Hua Zen Temple! They couldn't help but smile as they continued to lead the horses towards the temple's gate.

The six of them entered the temple and left the six horses in the yard. Just at this time, an old monk came over, bowed and said: "Amitabha! Six benefactors! Come this way, please! "

Thus, the six brothers followed the old monk to the main hall of the Great Hall.

At this time, the old monk smiled and said, "This old monk sees the extraordinary demeanor of the six patrons and has a heroic bearing. Come! Come! Come! Please leave your names behind! "In the name of Zhuang Wang Temple!"

While speaking, the old monk had already pulled open the Xuan paper on the table with one hand and pointed at the pen and ink on the table with the other. He wanted Ye Jinfeng and the others to sign!

However, Ye Jinfeng, who had been smiling, spoke to the old monk: "I am truly ashamed to hear your praise! I think we should dispense with the matter of the autograph! "

"Ai!" How can that be! " The old monk looked up and said, "The geese left their voices, and the people left their names! You came to the Xuzhou to sightsee, how can you not leave your name? It's better if everyone signs it! "

As the old monk spoke, he took down a big brush from the table and handed it over to Ye Jinfeng!

Seeing that, Ye Jinfeng found it hard to refuse her kindness, and could only accept it.

At this time, the old monk laughed and said, "These are all the four great pets of the office! Benefactor, if you use this Yellow Wolf Lake Pen and stick it onto the paper, you will definitely be able to leave a good mark on the paper! "

"Alright!" Ye Jinfeng dipped a brush into the ink stone on the paper and said, "I will write down all six of them for you! Master, please look! "

After saying that, with a few strokes of "shua shua", Ye Jinfeng wrote four big words. Then, he placed the Yellow Wolf Lake Brush back into its original place!

The crowd couldn't help but lean over in surprise. On the xuan paper, there were four words written in a natural and unrestrained manner — Shu, Dong, and Six Heroes! It was said that from then on, these four words would always be kept within the Cloud Dragon Mountain in Xuzhou.

"Good!" Good! It really was a good calligraphy piece! Just like you, Hero Ye! " The old monk smiled and said, "When you guys first arrived here, I guessed that you guys were the 'Shudong Six Heroes'. Now, it has indeed happened!"

"Senior!" You don't mind my writing this, do you? " Ye Jinfeng looked at the old monk and said.

"Ai!" Where! "Where?!" The old monk shook his head and laughed, "Hero Ye, with your writing, I understand it all! However, what I admire is that just from these four words alone, I have already thought of your dashing and dashing attitude! And now, seeing your unrestrained attire and beautiful speech, I feel very lucky to have you in my third life! "

When Wu Tianba and the other four heard this, they could not help but burst out in laughter! Firstly, he felt honored for his big brother, and secondly, he smiled at this old monk who was good at speaking.

Just then, Ye Jinfeng could not help but shake his head and laugh: "I would not dare to accept the praise of senior! "You haven't seen my sorry state!"

"Amitabha!" Who would have thought that Hero Ye's martial arts would be so modest! This old monk listened to what Hero Ye said, why are you in such a sorry state? " The old monk said in disbelief.

"Good!" I'll tell you! " Ye Jinfeng said in a very calm voice, "This morning, I had to change out of my tattered outer clothes!"

Ye Jinfeng had not finished speaking when the old monk interrupted him and said: "Ai! His clothes were tattered and tattered! This old monk doesn't believe what you said! Now you have left us such a beautiful four words! Back in the day, only the 'Grass Saint', Uncle Zhang Zhi's, words could be so extravagant! "

"Oh! Senior, please speak! " Ye Jinfeng lowered his head and said: "How can this one be compared with Elder Zhang Chi!"

"Hey!" The more the old man talked, the more addicted he got! "Please allow the six of us to pay our respects to Buddha!" Huang Shiying said while laughing in the crowd.

"Amitabha!" Excellent! Excellent! The six of you, please take a look! " The old monk smiled and pointed at the Great Buddha, "This stone Buddha is an artistic gem from the same era as the Great Cloud Mountain and the Dragon Gate of the Luoyang!"

"The Luoyang's Dragon Gate Stony Cave? Was it in the cavern on both sides of the river? " Huang Shiying said in shock.

"Hm!" That's right! "They were carved from the Northern Wei Empire during the Southern and Northern Dynasties!"

"Oh!" This stone Buddha was carved from a mountain. It seems to be around 40 zhang tall! " Huang Shiying purposely interrupted the old monk.

"Hm!" Indeed! " The old monk said with a smile.

"But compared to Great Buddha Le Shan, he is far worse! The Great Buddha of Mount Le is over 200 feet tall! " Sun Kexing looked up at the big stone Buddha and said.

"Yes!" The Great Buddha of Mount Le placed his emphasis on one big word! One Buddha's foot can seat a hundred people! " Zhang Yunhai added, "There can be two people standing together in the middle of the ears, and on the head of the head there can be one Eight Immortals Table."

"Oh! You are talking about Great Buddha Le Mountain who is facing Minjiang River and Da Du river! " The old monk said with a smile.

"Ai!" That's it! Beneath its feet is the confluence of the Qing Yi River, the Minjiang River and the Great Crossing River. " Ouyang Qingfeng waved his iron fan and said.

"Oh! I think we are the Iron Fan Young Master Ouyang s! " The old monk came before him and said, "I'm sure you know when the Great Buddha of Mount Le will open his mouth!"

"Of course! Of course! "My third brother knows this very well!" Wu Tianba patted Ouyang Qingfeng's shoulder and said proudly.

"Alright! Since the old mister would like me to speak, I will tell you! The Great Buddha of Mount Le is located on the east side of Minjiang River, on the west side of Cloudsoaring Mountain. Because it was carved from the precipice of the Lingyun Peak, it was also known as the Lingyun Buddha. According to the book "Jiazhou Lingyun Temple Buddha", this music mountain Buddha was carved in the Jin Dynasty (713 AD), was created by a monk, Haitong. It was later completed by Jiannan Xichuan Jianwei in 1900 (AD 803), which lasted for about 90 years. So far, it had been magnificent and completely intact! As the saying goes, "A mountain is a Buddha, a Buddha is a mountain." Its posture was graceful and magnanimous, and its soul was majestic. It was the 'number one great Buddha' under the heavens! It's said that this mysterious Great Buddha still has a true golden buddhist treasure inside. There are many thieves trying to steal treasures from the Great Buddha, but until now, it's still an unsolved mystery! "

After Ouyang Qingfeng spoke for a while, the old monk immediately leaned his body backwards and said: "In that case, that Great Buddha Le Mountain is still considered young compared to this Great Buddha Yun Long Mountain!"

"Oh?" Everyone could not help but look at the old monk in surprise, eager to hear the details from him.

"Everyone, don't forget!" The old monk stroked his long sleeves and said, "This Cloud Dragon Mountain Great Buddha has already experienced the Southern and Northern Dynasties, Sui and Tang dynasties, and is unscathed even in the chaotic times of the ten empires today. It should be said that it is even more qualified than Great Buddha Le Shan!"

"Oh! Ha! Ha! "Ha!" Everyone could not help but laugh out loud. Even the old monk's mouth was as wide as the waist! However, it was only the size of a bowl.

After laughing, Ouyang Qingfeng then said to the old monk: "I never thought that the old mister would come to my own Buddhist sect to praise himself! It is funny to know what you mean. "Awesome!"

"Oh! I've let the six of you down! Eh? Where did the Hero Ye go? " The old monk suddenly realised that Ye Jinfeng was no longer by his side and quickly looked around. Seeing this, all the brothers also turned back to look. They saw that Ye Jinfeng had already kneeled down on the meditation cushion and kowtowed towards the magnificent and solemn large Buddha statue. Then, Ye Jinfeng stood up, took out a silver ingot from his waist, and walked towards the Buddhist table in front.

Just at this time, the old monk hurriedly stepped forward and held onto Ye Jinfeng's hands: "Aiya! Hero Ye! You don't have to! I know that the six of you are traveling all over the place and need money! Just put it away! This old monk will not bear to accept it. "

"Ai!" How can that be! When we first arrived here, you called us' benefactors'! If I don't show you some kindness today, how can you talk about your benefactor? "

"Ai!" Why must Young Master Ye be so serious? Those who come to our institution, strong or weak, of high or low rank, we call him a benefactor. It might not even be necessary for him to donate money and things like that! " The old monk was still holding onto Ye Jinfeng's hands and refused to let go.

"NO!" Old sir! Just let me have it this time. Let me be a true benefactor once again! Be a philanthropist again! "Because I was born with such a personality!" Ye Jinfeng said without giving in at all.

"That's right!" My brother has always been a kind-hearted, chivalrous, and loyal man. "Old mister, please don't decline. You can allow my big brother to do good deeds here." Ouyang Qingfeng could not help but agree.

"Sigh!" The old monk sighed, his hands still did not let Ye Jinfeng go, and continued, "The Buddha family is benevolent, to the benefit of all living things! Could it be that the Young Master Ye and the Buddha are really fated to meet? "

"Ai!" Right! It was fate! I, Ye Jinfeng, highly appreciate this path of the Buddha! "So today, I have to give alms to you!" Ye Jinfeng said resolutely: "If not, then we, the six heroes of Shu would not be able to face this Buddha!"

"I am worried that your 'Shu Dong Six Heroes' will need two taels of silver on their journey!" "Oh!" The old monk suddenly stopped talking. He looked back and smiled mysteriously, and said: "Does Young Master Ye really want to be a benefactor?"

Besides, everyone was attracted by the old monk's words. They didn't know what he was going to say.

"Of course I have to be merciful!" Ye Jinfeng replied in confusion.

"Excellent!" The old monk could not help but laugh, "The Young Master Ye has already been forgiven, why did we have to come a second time?"

"The alms have already been done?" Everyone was puzzled.

"Yeah!" Only then did the old monk turn his head and point at the Xuan paper on the table, "Young Master Ye, look, these are the four beautiful words of grass that you have left behind, 'Shu Dong Six Xiong'. "It could even become a treasure in the Buddha's courtyard."

"Old mister, you mean this!" Everyone was stunned.

"That's why the Young Master Ye, including the five of you, have done something so kind! This old monk is already extremely grateful, Young Master Ye will accept your silver, you will need it even more on the journey! " The old monk said with deep concern.

"Thank you for your guidance!" Otherwise, the six of us would still be in the dark. "But what are those words?"

Before Ye Jinfeng could finish his words, "Dang — — Dang — — Dang — —" A deafening bell chime sounded out, interrupting his words. The sound of the bell pierced his ears and echoed in his mind. This bell sound suddenly pierced through his heart like thunder, ear-piercing yet heart-rending. Because the bell's sound reminded Ye Jinfeng of the burst of heart-wrenching bell sound that rang throughout Taibai Mountain; because the bell sound had merged into the 18 Arhat's tragic death, and it also contained the sorrowful and anxious emotions of the old abbot, Elder Hui Ming and the monks in Dragon-Descending Temple. At this very moment, the ringing of the bell was so stimulating to the heart.

"Awesome! "It's time for lunch. Why don't the six of you go have some Ramen?" The old monk said with a smile.

"En, alright!" The six of us are starving! " Sun Kexing immediately said.

"No!" Ye Jinfeng said in an exceptionally determined tone, "Let's continue south to Yangzhou!"

When everyone heard this, they didn't know what to do! However, the five of them still followed their big brother Ye Jinfeng's orders and led their horses rapidly down the mountain.

The old monk had been unable to stop the six of them, so he could only stand still on the steps of the mountain. He looked at the six people's backs gradually disappearing into the distance. Despite the merciless slaps from "Jiao Yang" above his head, he did not seem to care at all. His smile, his beautiful language, was gone. He really did not understand, "What happened to the six heroes of Shu? Why are you so anxious? What was it all about? Are they really going to Yangzhou? No! No! Just like how they came to Xuzhou, once they came to Yangzhou, they would pass in a flash and then leave for who knows where, where would they be able to think about sightseeing? Where were they going? Is it a place so far away that you can't see it or feel it?. I wonder if I will ever understand this in this life. I hope that by birth they will be able to reunite with each other. "

At this moment, the old monk ascended the mountain and gazed into the distance. The "six heroes of the east" of Shu no longer entered his vision. He seemed to see the clouds in the horizon singing for the "six heroes of the east of Shu":

"Clouds are drifting in the sky, and the people on the ground are busy riding their horses. "Hero's chivalrous tender intestines, where are you going?"

"Traveling all the way, traveling all the way. The water is long and the village is a blur. Looking at the setting sun, the setting sun is coming back. The sky is not old, the land is not barren, and time is long …"

"The great river flows eastward, the stars in the sky are like the Big Dipper; if you say we leave, then we leave. You have, I have, all of them! "If you want to hear it, listen; if you don't want to hear it, let's go!" "Ahh — — ahh, ahh — — ahhh — —"

"The sea is vast, and the fishes leap in the air. The sky is high, and the birds fly!" The six heroes of the east of Shu once again covered the stars to catch up with the moon and the wind blew southward!
