After Dongye Feng and Yao Er left, Aqing laughed and said, "I have a new horse, what do you think?"
Aqing pointed to the Flying Yellow Lion, who was lying obediently at Aqing's feet.
This flying yellow lion is larger in size and wingspan than Little Black, so it should be able to fly faster.
Long Ling'er asked with a smile, "Have you named it yet?"
A Qing joked, "The black tiger is named Little Black because it's black. So, let's call this lion Little Yellow since it's yellow."
Long Ling'er laughed and said, "This name is way too casual, isn't it?"
As the three of them chatted and laughed, they climbed onto the back of the Flying Yellow Lion.
The space on the Flying Yellow Lion's back was even more spacious than the Black Tiger's, and the three of them sat comfortably without any squeezing.
Aqing patted the lion head and the flying yellow lion spread its wings and flew up, leaving the land and soaring into the sky, flying towards the distance.
Looking down from mid-air, the three saw that Tan Wu was still standing in place, scratching his head and hesitating about whether to leave or stay.
After the Flying Yellow Lion soared into the sky, its speed and endurance were indeed superior to that of Little Black, and much more stable.
Three days later, they finally flew to Zhongnan Mountain.
On the back of the lion, the three looked into the distance and saw the peaks rising and falling, stretching for hundreds of miles, but they didn't know which one was the Chaoyang Peak where the Poisonous Hand Miracle Doctor was hiding.
They dare not enter the mountains recklessly. If they accidentally trespass into the Chaoyang Peak, not only will they violate the ban on flying from the Poison-handed Medical Sage, but their mounts will also be at risk of getting shot down.
Aqing ordered the Flying Sky Yellow Lion to land on the mountain side.
At this time, as the sun sets in the west, it will be dark in less than an hour.
Tianjiao said: "It's getting dark soon. Let's rest in the mountains tonight, and search for the Sunrise Peak early tomorrow morning to avoid getting lost in the forbidden area and getting into danger."
Aqing and Long Ling'er both agreed.
Just then, they saw a woodcutter carrying a load of firewood walking out of the mountain.
Tian Jiao rushed up to greet the woodcutter, first bowing to him, and asked, "Excuse me, sir, is this the Zhongnan Mountain?"
“Exactly.”
"Excuse me, how do I get to Chaoyang Peak?"
The woodcutter's face changed and he shook his head repeatedly, saying:
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page.)
"Young sir, you can go anywhere in the Zhongnan Mountains, except for Chaoyang Peak."
阿青明知故问，笑道：“为何朝阳峰去不得？”
“朝阳峰中住着一位恶人，任何人敢靠近，就有生命危险。丢了命都是轻的，有些人要痛苦多日才能死去，死状惨不忍睹。我劝你们赶快回去吧，不要寻找那朝阳峰了。”
Aqing laughed and said, "Is that villain really that scary?"
The woodcutter's face turned pale and he looked around, as if afraid of being overheard. He lowered his voice and said, "He's even scarier than a devil. We woodcutters don't dare to go near Chaoyang Peak, let alone the several peaks near it. We go home early before it gets dark to avoid accidentally entering Chaoyang Peak and losing our lives."
Aqing laughed and said, "Sir, you don't need to worry about us. We have the ability to subdue demons and evil spirits, even if that villain is a devil. I have spells to control him. You just need to tell us how to get there."
The woodcutter looked at Aqing and of course did not believe her. He said, "I won't tell you how to get to Chaoyang Peak."
"Why? Are you afraid of being implicated?" Aqing asked strangely.
“That's not it. I see that you're young. If I point out the way for you, it'll be like sending you to death. I don't want to shorten your life.”
Next to him, Long Ling'er took out a silver coin from her sleeve and said with a smile, “Uncle, as long as you show us the way, I'll give you this silver coin, enough for you to buy firewood for a year.”
Tianjiao frowned beside her, feeling that her cousin's thoughts were not straightforward, either forcing people to reveal their evil nature with tricks or tempting their evil nature with money.
But he couldn't stop her, so he just kept silent.
The woodcutter gazed at the piece of silver with a greedy look in his eyes and reached out to take it.
Dragon spirit girl smiled slightly, but her eyes showed a hint of sarcasm as she watched the woodcutter, pleased with the success of her plan.
But just as the woodcutter was about to touch the broken silver, he suddenly stopped and did not reach out any further.
Long Ling'er curiously asked, "Old man, why don't you take it? This silver is real."
樵夫道：“我知道银子是真的，不过，我不能为了银子，就眼看着你们去送死。这银
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page.)
子，我不能要。”
龙灵儿反而一怔，没想到一个山野樵夫，竟然能抵挡住金钱的诱惑，这一块碎银，足够樵夫一年的生活费用了。
Tian Jiao smiled and glanced at Long Ling'er, then said to the woodcutter, "Thank you for your kindness, sir. We won't ask you for directions anymore, so please go back home."
The woodcutter nodded and was about to pick up his wood and leave, but suddenly stopped and said, "It's getting dark soon. Where will you rest tonight?"
Tian Jiao said, "We are in the mountains. Just find a place to rest, and don't worry about it, sir."
The woodcutter shook his head. "There are many fierce beasts and mosquitoes in the mountains, so it's not safe. Unfortunately, my home is simple and cannot accommodate you. However, I can tell you a place where you can stay, and the owner there will definitely welcome you warmly."
Tianjiao didn't want to disturb others and said, "Let's not disturb anyone."
The woodcutter laughed and said, "You don't know, that person is the most famous good person within a hundred miles. Not only does he love to give to others, but he also likes to make friends. He will definitely be happy to see martial artists like you."
The woodcutter spoke of this person with great respect and affection.
Tianjiao became curious and asked, "Old man, what is the name of this great person?"
Seeing that Tianjiao was interested, the woodcutter was happy and set down his wood. He took a tobacco pouch out of his pocket and began to smoke while telling Tianjiao the story.
"There is a great man with the surname Xuan, and out of respect, we do not address him by name, instead referring to him as Master Xuan. He is in his sixties, even older than myself."
"Master Xuan's ancestors held high positions of authority, but later retreated to live in the Zhongnan Mountains. Although Master Xuan never held an official position, the successive rulers of our region have all received great kindness from his ancestors, and consequently hold the Xuan family in high esteem. He is quite famous in our area."
It is said that Xuan Laozi once passed the imperial examination, but for some reason did not become an official and has been living as a recluse. His family is wealthy, with enough fortune to last several generations without running out.
"However, Master Xuan had never married or had children and lived alone. Oh, by the way, Master Xuan also has a sister who has never been married. We all call her Aunt Xuan."
