Unexpectedly, the short distance from where we were standing to the door of the store took nearly half a minute.
There were more and more people, and Sun Luyuan walked at the right time.
If he were slower, the road would become blocked and it would be difficult to move.
Finally entering the store, Huang Yuzhong and I breathed a sigh of relief.
I asked Huang Yuzhong: "Are there particularly many people participating in the spring appraisal this year?"
Huang Yuzhong curled his lips: "This is my first time here too, so I don't know what the scene was like in the mountains in previous years.
But I heard from my second uncle that spring commentaries have almost become a trend in the industry these days, except for Zuo Youdao.
For those of you who are young, who doesn’t want to get a good ranking in the Spring Review?
It’s likely that the Spring Review will become a weather vane once all the older generations have retired.”
"What did the weather vane say?"
"Think about it, if in the future colleagues in the industry will judge their ranking based on the results of the Spring Review, then by then, a ranking in the Spring Review will be able to indicate the strength of a sect.
If a disciple has a high ranking in the Spring Review, Naturally, it means that the sect's inheritance is excellent, but if you can't get a good ranking, doesn't it mean that the inheritance is not good?
At least in the eyes of most people."
I have to say, what he said makes sense.
But thinking about the relationship between the Min family and the Three Youth League, I can only shake my head helplessly.
I don’t know who in the Sanqinghui the Second Master offended.
People outside the store were busy greeting each other, and the salesperson in the store was also an envoy of the Three Youth League.
No one could hear the conversation between Huang Yuzhong and me.
Just as I was shaking my head and walking towards the shelves, there was a sudden roar outside the store.
The sound was far away from the path, but it still covered up the noisy footsteps and reached the store.
Huang Yuzhong and I looked at each other, then put our heads to the door and looked in the direction of the sound.
At this time, everyone walking on the road stopped, and everyone's eyes almost fell in the same direction.
Huang Yuzhong whispered to me: "It should be an avalanche."
I said: "There was an avalanche in the inner mountain" Huang Yuzhong shook his head: "The sound came from outside, but the location of the avalanche should not be far from the inner mountain.
It must have been a large amount of falling snow that broke the boundary of the inner mountain, and the sound came in."
There is indeed a barrier in the inner mountain that can completely isolate the sounds from outside.
When I first entered the inner mountain, I couldn't hear Huang Yuzhong's voice as soon as I walked past the stone monument.
It can be roughly guessed that the stone monument is the outer edge of the barrier. .
After a while, a cry came from the west side of the path: "Emergency mountain closure.
Emergency mountain closure.
A big avalanche occurred outside.
The inner mountain is closed.
Please don't go out recently."
I craned my neck and looked to the west.
There were too many people and I couldn't see who was shouting.
As soon as the man finished speaking, several participants gathered in front of the store began to discuss it.
I heard one of them say that it had been fifty years since the Sanqinghui established the ashram here, and this was the first time there had been an avalanche.
Then someone said that this avalanche seemed to be an ominous sign.
There are also people who believe that avalanches are normal in places like this.
The fact that the snow-capped mountains have remained unscathed for fifty years can only be said to be the luck of the Three Youth League.
There were many people talking at that time, but most of the comments were in these two tones.
Huang Yuzhong and I shrank our heads in the store.
Huang Yuzhong said to me with some worry: "There hasn't been an avalanche in fifty years.
Why did it collapse when you came?"
I couldn't help laughing: "Why didn't you tell me why it collapsed just because you Huang Yuzhong came?

It's probably a coincidence.
There's nothing to worry about."
Huang Yuzhong nodded: "Yes."
In fact, I just pretended to be calm on the surface.
I was also thinking in my heart that this avalanche was not caused by Buzhoushan.
Now that the inner mountain is closed, it is impossible for me to go out.
Could it be that they want to catch turtles in this urn?
But with so many people in Neishan, does Bu Zhoushan really dare to take action?
Huang Yuzhong seemed to be really comforted by me.
He didn't say anything else after that, and ran to the shelves to concentrate on business.
I glanced over at the counter.
The envoy from the Sanqinghui Association was holding a sum of money, writing and drawing with his head down, as if he was doing accounts.
He was deaf, so naturally he couldn't hear the sounds outside.
Huang Yuzhong walked along the shelves.
On the way here, his backpack was damaged.
There happened to be a row of brand-new backpacks on the shelf.
He seemed to be interested in a black bag at the top of the shelf, but because he was not tall enough, I could only stand on tiptoes and stretch out my hands to grab it.
My movements looked very clumsy.
I can't help at this moment, after all, I'm not much taller than Huang Yuzhong.
I don’t know what the store is thinking, insisting on making the shelves so high.
It is estimated that only tall people over 1.9 meters can touch the top.
Huang Yuzhong spent a lot of effort and finally grabbed the shoulder bag of the backpack.
The moment he was about to pull the backpack off, I felt like something flew along the roof, or it was that thing.
The speed was too fast, or maybe my eyes were dazzled and I couldn't see what it looked like clearly.
There was a loud noise, and the black backpack, along with several nearby items, all fell off the shelves.
The messenger standing behind the counter may have noticed something unusual from the corner of his eye.
He immediately ran over and bent down to pick up the things on the ground.
He looked like a skilled worker at first glance.
After grabbing the things on the ground, he didn't have to tiptoe deliberately.
He just threw them casually and saw those things being thrown away high, then slowly falling down and landing steadily on the upper shelf.
I couldn't help but be a little stunned when I looked at his smooth and flowing movements.
I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to master such a skill in just three to five years.
At this time, the store clerk was picking up a white wallet from the ground, but instead of throwing the wallet directly on the shelf, he was stunned for a moment, then turned around and handed the wallet to me.
I immediately reached out and tried to push the wallet back, casually saying, "It's not mine."
But as soon as my palm touched the wallet, I immediately felt a familiar chill.
It was an unusual biting cold, just like the wind of karma on the Yin and Yang path.
Without any hesitation, I turned my wrist and took the wallet.
The shopkeeper smiled politely at me, then bent down and continued to collect the scattered goods.
During the process, he breathed a few breaths of hot air into the palm of his hand.
Apparently, he was also chilled by the chill in his wallet.
Huang Yuzhong came over and asked me: "This wallet doesn't seem to be yours."
Before he could finish speaking, I took his hand and placed the wallet in his palm.
Huang Yuzhong was also in a state of mind, and his eyes suddenly widened.
I stuffed my wallet into my pocket, and through several layers of clothes, the chill penetrated my skin and hit my bones.
I could only endure it and pretended to be shopping in the store.

When the store owner came back behind the counter, I turned my back to him and opened my wallet.
I saw a thin piece of ice sandwiched inside, and in addition, there was a folded white paper.
Huang Yuzhong also quickly came over and completely blocked the store's view with his back.
I carefully unfolded the white paper and saw it said: "Qi, someone wants to kill you, leave quickly."
This note was left to me, but I have never seen the handwriting on it.
Huang Yuzhong pointed to the words on the note, his lips trembled slightly, as if he wanted to speak.
I quickly put away the note, made a silencing gesture to him, and then looked carefully at the wallet in my hand.
This thing is made of fine canvas, and the color is white with a little gray.
Looking up at the surrounding walls, the paint on the walls is also the same color.
Only then did I realize that the thing flying past my eyes just now was this wallet, but it almost blended into the environment and was difficult to spot.
Thinking of this, I immediately rushed to the front of the store and quickly looked at the roads on both sides.
There were too many people.
At a glance, I couldn't see anything except heads and swaying arms.
Huang Yuzhong quickly came over and asked me with a worried look on his face: "What should I do now?"
What else can be done?
The inner mountain has been sealed.
Even if you want to leave, you can't leave.
Now you can only wait and see what happens.
I patted Huang Yuzhong on the shoulder: "Go buy a backpack."
Huang Yuzhong didn't waste any time and hurried to the counter to pay.
I waited for him to come back, found a gap in the crowd, and quickly took him out of the store.
First, the avalanche closed the mountain, and then I received such a note.
The timing was so coincidental.
I suspected that Buzhou Mountain knew that someone was going to report to me, and then decided to create the avalanche at the last minute.
But who is the person who reported the message to me?
I don’t remember that I have any acquaintances in Buzhou Mountain.
No, I do have an acquaintance, the dwarf Hudbalsi whom I met in the deserted village of the Three Gorges.
The person who reported the news to me was most likely him.
The crowd was so dense that it was annoying.
It took Huang Yuzhong and I a long time to get back to where we lived.
When he entered, Li Huaishan was squatting next to the fire pit eating.
When he saw me coming in, he said cheerfully: "Thank you for leaving me some food."
I couldn't feel happy at all now, and I ignored him.
I just walked quickly to the bed, took out the note and read it carefully.
I have indeed never seen those notes.
Huang Yuzhong stood next to me, looking nervous.
Li Huaishan also came over with the pot in his arms.
He glanced at the note in my hand and looked shocked: "Why does Buzhoushan want to kill you now?"
I frowned and said, "Of course it is now.
When I stayed in Bohai Bay, they were afraid of the Second Master and did not dare to do anything.
When I left home, they could not figure out my movements.
But this time, they have Enough time to plan.
It’s unmistakable.
The person who took Zhang Dayou into the inner mountain last time must be someone from Buzhou Mountain.”
Huang Yuzhong said: "I think you'd better communicate with the Sanqinghui.

After all, this place is the territory of the Sanqinghui.
If they are willing to provide protection," I raised my head and interrupted Huang Yuzhong: "How can you be sure that there is no connection between the Sanqinghui and Buzhou Mountain?"
Huang Yuzhong looked at me, his eyes opening wider and wider, almost falling out of his eyes
