The Legend of Shushan Swordsman

Chapter 33 Long Laughing, Flying Birds and Evil Ridges

Yuan Xing climbed up from the cliff in a state of embarrassment, walked up to the crowd, bowed and said, "Because Wu Xiangu wanted to come back to compete in the sword, she came as soon as she said she would go, so she ordered Yuan Xing and Gang Yu to guard the back cave. The thief monk fell down from the sky with a catfight. Yuan Xing was thrown off the cliff by someone who came. He didn't know the origin of the visitor, but he suffered some hardships from the visitor in the back cave. He was a little angry. The word "thief monk" It blurted out." Seeing that it was speechless, Jin Chan was about to reprimand him, when suddenly he heard a bang, Yuan Xing slapped his left cheek early, touching his face with a hairy hand and jumping in pain.Jin Chan said with a smile: "Good fight! Who told you to hurt people?" Yingqiong couldn't bear it when she saw that it was suffering again and again.Jin Chan kept yelling: "Brother Xiao, come out quickly, I think you're going to die!" He yelled several times, but there was no answer.

When Yuan Xing saw Jin Chan's title, he realized that the people came from a family, and he had suffered a lot of unjust beatings for nothing.Everyone was urging him to ask again, so he could only answer with restraint: "Yuan Xing saw the monk fall from the sky, thought that someone knocked him down from the sky, and asked Gang Yu to pick him up out of good intentions, but Gang Yu said that the monk fell from the sky. I'm afraid it's a spy, so let's wait for him to come down. Yuan Xingsu has always believed in Gangyu, but he forgot to quarrel with it a while ago. It took revenge and fell for Yuan Xing. Fighting. Sure enough, the monk was deliberately teasing people. Seeing that he was about to fall to the ground, he disappeared for some reason. Turning around, he was running into the cave, and he was still babbling: "Emei is not there at all." Seriously, it is a joke to use such a useless bald-tailed horse monkey to guard the gate, seeing that a group of miscellaneous men and women are about to invade in a big way soon." Yuan Xing's shortcoming was that he forgot that Gang Yu was also standing on a rock in front of the cave, but he didn't stop him, so he was furious for a while, so he chased him. First, because he couldn't tell whether it was an enemy or a friend, he only used his sword to kill him. He stopped him and asked him where he came from. Without saying a word, he first stood still and looked at Yuan Xing from head to toe carefully, and then said: "I see that although you are a domestic animal under the Orthodox sect, it is a pity that you still have a face Angry, I need some more wise people to discipline me." The disciple held back his anger and asked him about his origin. He exited the cave and said, "If you ask me about my origin, someone must have asked you to be a watchdog here. You Since you have the ability to guard the house, you will be able to deal with the enemies who come. If you can’t fight against the people who come, you want to ask them about their origins. It’s no use. Why don’t I fight with you to see if you are capable? Besides, the history is not too late." Yuan Xingyuan hated him for cursing others, and was afraid of offending his master's friend by mistake. He was eager to fight him, so he asked him how to fight. He said he used empty hands, and asked Yuan Xing to chop him with a sword. Yuan Xing thought that there was no such cheap thing, so he was afraid of killing someone by mistake, so he still used his hands. He kept urging him, and Yuan Xing beat him several times. Although he was small, his slaps were harder than iron. Fortunately, he forced Yuan Xing to use the sword. Who knew that it would be better if he didn't use the sword, but when he used the sword, Yuan Xing danced the light of the sword in such a hurry. He even scolded and beat him, fell over a dozen times, and felt pain all over his body. He even said that I was a useless piece of trash, so he wouldn't fight me anymore. After saying that, he walked inside. Gang Yu was always on the sidelines, and didn't come to help. As soon as the monk left, he urged his disciples to chase him quickly. After chasing here, he saw that the masters and fairies did not know him, so they wanted to take the opportunity to strike behind him. He only felt that when he turned around, the two swords in his hand seemed to be blocked by something. Then He was beaten and kicked by him, and then fell down the cliff."

Hearing this, Yingqiong felt that Yuan Xing was not at fault, and that the visitor was beating him secretly, so she was a little displeased.At this time, everyone who knew the person came together and asked Brother Xiao to show up and meet everyone.Jin Chan was shouting vigorously when she suddenly felt something stuffed in her hand.When Jin Chan first met the visitor in Chengdu, he was often tricked by the visitor using invisibility, and she had already noticed this.He didn't care about picking things up, so he took advantage of the situation and grabbed them firmly.I was so happy that I was about to make a sound when I heard someone say in my ear, "Let go first, I'm here just to find you, and I will never leave. It's just that there are too many lesbians here. When I came, I saw that monkey mad again." It is arrogant, trying to show off its strength, deliberately frustrating its spirit. I don’t want to offend people unintentionally, so I don’t want to show up. I also have a lot of things to do according to my teacher’s orders. How about you go to another place for an interview with me?” Jin Chan knew him Temperament, only according to him.Looking at the thing in his hand, it turned out to be two vermilion fruits.He didn't have time to ask about the origin, so he said to everyone: "Brother Xiao doesn't want to see girls, you just practice. I will come with him." After finishing speaking, he walked to Xiuyunjian alone.Yingqiong sees Jin Chan holding two vermilion fruits at a glance, guesses that they are from Mangcang Mountain, she can't help but think of Ruolan, her heart moves, and when she is about to ask, Jin Chan already flies away.Lingyun couldn't seal the cave because of magic, fearing that there were still treasures in it and something might go wrong again, so he invited everyone to check it together, trying to figure out how to deal with the aftermath.do not mention.

Jin Chan passed the deserted place in Xiuyunjian, and then the smiling monk appeared, holding a small sword with a cold light and a letter in his hand.We met each other again and talked about our experiences.

It turned out that after the work in Ciyun Temple was over, all the disciples were sent to various places to accumulate external skills.The laughing monk asked to go with Heihaier Yuchihuo to go to the whole province of Yunnan to meet Jin Chan and others who went to Fuxiantan of Osmanthus Mountain to fetch black wind grass.I didn't know that Jinchan and others met Ranxian and Mrs. Miaoyi on the way, and instead of returning to Jiuhua, they went to Emei to open up Ningbiya fairy mansion.Later, after calculating the journey of Jin Chan and others, it was time to go to Osmanthus Mountain, so he discussed with Yu Chihuo, relying on the invisible sword technique, not afraid that Grandma Honghua would see it through, so he simply rushed to Fuxiantan on Osmanthus Mountain to see what happened.For example, Grandma Honghua is reasonable, so she just agrees to give it to the grass, otherwise she can help Jin Chan and others.

The two rushed to Fuxiantan to see that the pond had turned into ashes from a sea of ​​fire, and many rocks had been burned into scorched earth. They searched all over the mountain, but there was no one there.It is guessed that Jin Chan and others have already returned to the mountain, but I don't know if they have succeeded, so they have to go to Jiuhua to meet again after a while.The two of them decided to go deep into the people and accumulate good deeds.He and Yu Chihuo had different looks in their lives: one had a big head and a round face, and his face was as gentle as jade. He opened his mouth and laughed first when he saw people, which seemed funny and had a naive air.One is as black as iron from head to toe, and his voice is like a bell, and he speaks in a daze, without understanding, and with a ball of anger.They are both young, they don't look more than fourteen or five years old, and they are dressed as a group of monks, nondescript, walking together, everyone they meet thinks they are the little monks and little Taoist boys who fled together in the temple.When the laughing monk saw that the two of them were strange, he became more and more crazy. He played Samadhi and made many jokes wherever he went.The laughing monk is the most kind-hearted, and will not kill people unless he has to.Only the black boy, Yuchihuo, has a rigid heart and hates evil like revenge.No matter if he is an adulterer, villain or local tyrant, if he meets him, nine times out of ten he will die.Monk Xiao felt that he did not give people a way of self-rehabilitation, and he was afraid of creating evil causes. He persuaded him many times, but he couldn't change it at the time, and he only regretted it later.

On this day, I walked among the mountains near Kunming. I saw that the sunset was already dusk, and it was late spring and March. The mountains were purple and the willow leaves were golden. The scenery was very beautiful.Yu Chihuo suddenly said to the laughing monk: "Brother Xiao, I often hear people say that your long laugh not only shakes the forest, frightens birds to fly, but also frightens tigers and leopards to scare apes and orangutans. , I am used to being a vegetarian, and I know how to fast. It doesn’t matter whether I eat or not. Although I am in Taoism, my master has never forbidden me to eat meat. I only have five or seven taels of silver that my master gave me in my waist, and I have eaten it all along the way. It’s hard to be full for a few days. I want to hunt a tiger and leopard in the mountains and eat it with barbecue. It will not only eliminate harm for the world, but also satisfy the gluttony. This place is full of deep mountains and ravines, the situation is dangerous, and there is no one around. Where there are people, there must be ferocious beasts hiding. Why don't you laugh for a while, and surprise some ferocious beasts like tigers and leopards, please let me use them?" Although the laughing monk has great abilities, he was converted by the ascetic touta just after he was born.Because he was born with Buddha roots, he is extremely loved.The precepts of the ascetic Toutuo are the strictest, and the laughing monk has adhered to the clear rules and has been subtle for fifteen or six years.It is the first time to be born, and it has accumulated a lot of external skills. Although there are times when it is unavoidable to see the hunting heart, it is okay to play around, but I don't want to kill casually for no reason.Then he replied: "Although the tiger and leopard are man-eating beasts, they hide in the deep mountains and have not seen their evil deeds. I will lure them out and kill them with my method. Wouldn't it be peace in heaven? Forgive me." Yuchi said in a huff: "You are such an idiot! How can there be tigers and leopards in the world that don't eat people? If you don't get rid of them now, it's not too late to get rid of them after people have been harmed. If you don't believe it, just laugh at it and let us know." Go forward. If it sees that we don't want to invade, it can be seen that it is a good tiger, so we won't kill it. What do you think?"

The laughing monk couldn't force him, so he had to agree.The two first found a shelter from the wind, moved a few big rocks, set up the wild stove, and then went to a high place together.Looking around, it turns out that there are dense jungles, precipitous mountains, and excellent beast caves everywhere.Turning back suddenly, I looked into a deep valley in the northeast of the mountain. The fog was heavy, and the valley mouth was illuminated by the slanting sun, showing a dark red atmosphere.The smiling monk thought to himself, "At this time, the weather is clear and bright. Although the peaks are dangerous and the forests are dense, there are many tall trees and high forests here, with various flowers in full bloom. Under the setting sun, there are majestic and bright scenery everywhere. How come the side facing the sun is so dark and red? With my own eyesight, I can't see the bottom. Since entering Yunnan, I have encountered many poisonous winds and miasmas along the way, and they are not the same as what I see today. That place is by no means a good place." Thinking of this, Hei Haier urged repeatedly.The laughing monk said with a smile: "Junior Brother Yuchi, listen carefully, don't deafen your ears." After speaking, he shook his head, stretched his neck to breathe, and evenly mixed the qi in his dantian, opened his mouth slightly, and the first thing he uttered was a sharp sound, The sound is like a reed, very pleasant.It didn't take a moment to make a sound, and there was a commotion in the woods on the side, thumping and thumping.Evening crows in the sky, smelling their long chants, all flew over, spread their wings and flew above the heads of the two of them, circling and lingering.In the end, other kinds of birds also flew over upon hearing the sound, gathering more and more, covering the place where the two of them were in a black shadow.Yu Chihuo laughed so hard that he said, "Brother Laughing, so I learned to speak female accents. How long will it take to make my stomach full by teasing crows like this? Teach me to pay attention to my ears, forget it."

Before the words were finished, just as the lingering sound did not stop, the laughing monk let out a long laugh, bang bang repeatedly, like a thunderbolt from a blue sky pressing down on his head, the mountains collapsed, and the situation changed color.The birds in the air were so frightened that there was a sudden chaos, flying around and making a mess.Some were so frightened that they buried their heads between their wings, unable to hold themselves, and fell to the ground one after another.Those who broke through the siege turned their heads, tightened their wings, and lost the group like a shuttle, flying around.Yu Chihuo also felt that he couldn't bear it anymore, and shouted: "Brother Laughing, shut up quickly, this is not for fun, if you keep laughing, I'm going to be deaf!" The Laughing Monk also hurriedly stopped and said: "Oops! Oops! I just wanted to be happy for a while, and bet with you, but I accidentally injured many birds, Master knows, what should I do?" As he said, he even claimed to be strange: "I used what Master taught to transform the innate energy and practice it into a long smile. Every sound can indeed scare all animals and frighten birds. How can you not only see tigers and leopards, but also monkeys? I don’t believe there is not even a tiger or leopard within a radius of a hundred miles.”

While he was talking, he suddenly heard a shout like a bell, and a short man with long hair, wearing a leopard skin and holding an iron mace ran up from the foot of the mountain, and shouted: "Where did you come from?" The little miscellaneous hair and the little bald donkey, screaming strangely here, scared my brother to death!" After saying that, he aimed at the laughing monk, and it was a mace.The laughing monk first saw the man dressed like a savage, and thought that the multi-ethnic place in this area must be Miao people, so he wanted to make fun of him.And listening to his accent, he was actually a Han Chinese, I must have laughed wildly just now, alarming others, and it was my fault, so I didn't care about him, and only then did I avoid him.Yu Chihuo grabbed the man's mace hand with one hand, and shouted: "Where is the savage from, who hurts people with his mouth, hit him with his hands, and let me discipline you." Frightened and fainted, I came here to seek revenge desperately.But he didn't expect that once the mace was struck, the figure in front of him disappeared, and at the same time, his body was caught by the hand holding the mace by a little black-faced Taoist priest.When they competed with each other, no one took the mace away.When the man got anxious, he raised his left hand to explore the claws of the black dragon, and grabbed the face.He didn't know much about martial arts, Yuchihuo turned his body slightly, and grabbed his left hand again.Because Yuchihuo saw that the man was too fierce and he didn't care about injustice, he wounded him with a heavy weapon. If he had to use someone else for this mace, he was afraid that his brain would burst and he would die.He deliberately wanted to knock him down, and then ask him why he came after he was defeated.But he didn't know that the man had a stomachache and a natural supernatural power.Although he grabbed him with both hands and shook him hard, he didn't shake.Yuchihuo's heart skipped a beat, he let out a loud shout, he tightened the hands of the visitor, and pushed towards his arms first.Suddenly the left arm tilted, the right foot stepped up, and followed by the grappling method, the right arm black snake bent the elbow, covering the person's left wrist.Bend your right knee according to the incoming person's leg, and lean forward.At the same time, raise your left elbow and point to the man's right flank.Man Ni that person is absolutely unbearable, and he will definitely fall to the ground.Unexpectedly, that person looks stupid, but his heart is clever.Before Yuchi got up, he shouted loudly and raised his arms at the same time, almost being pulled away by that person.That man was not only a forceful man, Yu Chihuo used many clever tricks, but was avoided by that man, he was very surprised.

The laughing monk had already seen from the side that the man was stupid on the outside and handsome on the inside, with extraordinary bones, so he already cherished him a little.Seeing that Yuchi Huo fell and he didn't fall, he stepped forward and said with a smile: "I'm waiting here to laugh and play, how can I scare people to death? Don't fight with my senior brother, why don't you tell the matter and see who is who. No? If I was really scared to death, how about I save him and bring him back to life?" Yuchihuo grabbed the man's hands and fought for a while, thinking about the friend who fainted from the fright in the cave, knowing that this little black Taoist was no match. I don't want to fight anymore, I am eager to go back and have a look, but I can't get away, my neck is red and my face is flushed with anxiety.Hearing this, while still fighting with Yuchi, he cursed: "It's all you two little thieves! When my mother was around, she said I was strong and afraid of killing people, so I never fought with anyone. Just before dark, my elder brother was sick. When he heard you screaming, he said it was a phoenix flying in. I helped him out and saw that it was you screaming. It wasn't very unpleasant at first. , attracted a group of black croaks, my brother also likes it very much. He doesn't recognize you, but he knows your surname is Sun. He said hello, but you called for mourning. My brother is better when he is seriously ill. I was scared to death at that time. I took my brother back to the cave, took the mace to beat the tiger, and beat you to death to save my brother's life. But you didn't dare to do anything, but let this nigger catch people with ghostly hands. It's good, Tell him to let go and go back with me. See if my brother is dead for a long time like that day, but has he come back? If he lives, I will listen to my mother's words when she died, and I will not kill you two little thieves. If you don’t die, I’ll fight three maces with you. You strike first, and after beating me, I’ll beat you and this nigger. Whoever kills anyone is not allowed to cry, it’s not a good man who cries.” , Yuchihuo had already heard the reason, he calmed down a little, loosened his hands for a while, the man had already broken free from his hands, turned his head, swiftly like a bird, and plunged down to the side of a tens of zhang high cliff.After jumping several times in succession, he jumped into the cliff early and disappeared.

Yuchihuo didn't go after him, he looked back at the laughing monk, but he didn't know where he was going, knowing that he was chasing him with the invisibility method, so he followed him.After arriving at the cliff, I heard someone talking in a low cave next to the rock.A look inside, the place is not big, the light is very dark.On a big bluestone near the door, many clothes and quilts were scattered around, on which lay a young man who had died.The man yelled twice, but there was no answer, he yelled loudly, and rushed out of the cave with his mace.As soon as he came out of the acupuncture point, he saw a figure flashing in front of him, and the smiling monk appeared.The man was startled at first, but when he saw his face clearly, he was extremely jealous, and he raised his mace to hit him.The laughing monk moved slightly and came behind him.That person learned how to be good for the first time, before the end of his mace, he was ready to withdraw his energy.One mace hits empty, before the head of the mace hits the ground, close the mace early and turn around, looking for the enemy.At first sight, the laughing monk had a serene attitude, with a smile on his face, and stood behind him. The second mace came at the same time, and the second time, the laughing monk avoided it.The man wielded a mace like a blowing wind.The laughing monk didn't even fight back, he just surrounded the man's body, and under the moonlight, he spun around, never thinking about getting anything.Yuchihuo stood by and watched, he couldn't help laughing, which made the man even more anxious and furious.In the end, knowing that if the fight continued, there was nothing he could do, so he threw the mace on the ground angrily and said, "If I don't beat you to death, I won't be able to relieve my hatred. In this way, according to the words just now, you hit me three maces first, and I will never hide. After the beating, I will beat you again. Otherwise, if you hide in the sky, I will chase you and beat you to death. Wouldn’t it be troublesome?” The laughing monk said with a smile: “I have no grievances or enmities with you, so why beat you to death? What are you doing?" The man said angrily: "To tell you the truth, I have been used to being beaten since I was a child. My head often hits mountains, and you will never beat me to death. I am blacker than that because you are too slippery. The ghost is not a good person, so he came up with this idea. You can't kill me, but I beat you to death, isn't it revenge?" The laughing monk said: "You have told me everything on your mind, how can I pay you back? What is your fault? If I don’t hit you, you are too embarrassed to hit me, how nice.” The man became more and more angry and said, “You are right. Why should I tell you my idea? If you don’t hit me now, I will I can't hit you either. How about you come up with an idea and let me hit you?" The laughing monk said: "This is so fresh. Why am I so cheap and impatient to live, come up with an idea and let you hit me?"

Seeing the enemy by his side, the man had no choice but to stare at his two big eyes, his eyes were piercing, wishing he could eat the laughing monk alive.He was also afraid that the laughing monk would run away after looking at him, so he turned slightly and stopped him, but every stop was always empty, and he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.Yuchihuo just watched with a smile on the sidelines, without saying a word, the laughing monk reckoned that he had burnt out the man's anger enough, and then said with a smile: "Not only can you do nothing to me, you can't even stop me. If I want to leave, you You can't even catch up with the shadow. You only rely on me for one thing, so I'll save your brother, how about it?" Hearing this, the man half-believingly said: "If a person loses his breath, he will be called dead. My mother When she died, how many people and doctors did I invite, but none of them could be revived. In the end, I buried her. I have heard you say it just now, but I just don’t believe it. My brother is dead, and you will revive her. ? As long as he can really live, I will listen to you." The smiling monk said: "In this case, let alone other things, how about saving him first?" The man heard the words and said happily: "Then Dare to be kind. But I don’t want to coax you. I can’t catch you now. There are no obstacles here. There is no way out of the hole. You have to be like those doctors in the past. When people can’t be saved, I just block the hole. Come out. I'll explain it to you now, so you don't regret it." The laughing monk ignored him and walked into the cave.Sure enough, the man blocked the door and watched the laughing monk do what he did, and when he couldn't save him, he would take revenge.

In fact, the laughing monk had already entered the cave with him invisibly, and at a glance he could see that the young man who died on the bluestone had a strange skeleton, and even the dwarf was born with extraordinary talents, he was secretly amazed and thought: "How can there be such a thing between the barren mountains and wild valleys?" Are there such two pieces of uncarved jade? This time I went out to accumulate external skills. The master once said that accumulating a thousand merits is not as good as saving one person. Under the master's sect, I am the only one. If there is a mistake, no one will inherit the master's mantle. Human aptitude is not below average. This young man is just suffering from qi deficiency after illness, fainted from fright, and did not really die, so why not?" He made up his mind, and first secretly winked with Yuchihuo, telling him not to wait too long thing.I played tricks on the short man for a while, and went into the cave to look at the young man again. After a long time, I have already breathed a little.Then he took out one of the elixirs given by his master, stuffed it into his mouth, put his mouth to his mouth, and swallowed his vitality in one gulp.The elixir turns into Yuanjin, moves with the Qi, and goes straight into the abdomen.After a while, he heard the man shout: "Kill me too!" He immediately woke up slowly.He was about to struggle to sit up, but the laughing monk quickly pressed him down and said, "You are recovering from a serious illness and need to be taken care of, so please close your eyes and rest your mind." While speaking, he took another elixir.The young man felt that the elixir was fragrant in the mouth, and as soon as it reached the mouth, it flowed down the stream, a rush of heat, and went straight to the Yongquan.He had been ill for two months, and he woke up feeling refreshed, knowing that it was rescued by a stranger.When he was about to call someone, the short man saw that the young man really came back to life, threw his mace in his hand, threw himself on him, hugged his head and laughed happily: "Brother, you are really alive! This little monk is really a good man." The young man said: "Two Don't talk nonsense. Brother Yu is dying of illness. Although he is supported by his second brother, it is hard to see him well. At this moment, he feels light and free, as if he is not sick. It must be the immortal Buddha who rescued him. Brother Yu obeys orders, dare not get out of bed, but can go up for me Let me thank you benefactor."

Hearing the words, the man agreed in a panic, and immediately struck a stone to make fire, and lit a bunch of pine.It was Shi Yuchihuo who also walked in.He then walked over to Monk Laughing and Yuchihuo, bowed his head and bowed.The laughing monk stopped joking and quickly helped him up.The man said: "You are really a living god, you rescued my brother. I offended you just now, please don't take offense. Tell me what you want to do. My brother is already alive. As long as you don't leave him, I will obey you. The laughing monk said, "I can't talk about that right now. You can tell me the names and surnames of your two brothers." The man said, "My mother's surname is Shang, and I am also surnamed Shang. My nickname is Fengzi. My brother's surname is Zhou." This is you, and I won’t tell the truth to others.” Only then did the laughing monk realize that he and the young man were not brothers, and seeing how sincere he was to his friend, he was even more surprised.The man wanted to tell about his friendship with a young man named Zhou, but the young man had already interjected on the stone: "My brother is innocent, my benefactor, let me tell you." The laughing monk and Yuchi Huo heard the words and left. past.The young man was about to get up again, but the smiling monk stopped him and said, "Although you have taken the elixir, your vitality has been severely damaged, and it will take three hours before you can recover. You can still speak at this time, and don't move. Get up tomorrow It’s okay. It’s best to have some porridge.” The boy also felt hungry, so he asked Shang Fengzi if he had anything to eat.Shang Fengzi replied: "My brother wants to eat. It's great. I'm so happy. You asked me to sell your clothes for a tael or five renminbi the day before yesterday to buy some rice and cook a pot of vegetable porridge. You swallow I couldn’t eat any more, and I felt sad, so I didn’t eat any more, so I stayed there and I’ll light a fire for you to cook.”

After finishing speaking, he went to make a fire to cook porridge, but he muttered: "My brother is healed, and two good friends have come here. It happened that the weather was more than a month, and all the wild animals in Tiancanling were dead, even the deer. I can't catch one. I don't eat for a few days, it doesn't matter. These two good friends must have saved my brother before eating. What should I give them to eat? It's really hard for me." When the laughing monk heard Recently, the wild beasts in the mountains have disappeared, so it can be seen that they existed in the past. It is strange to think of the matter of laughing just now.As soon as the young man said Shang Fengzi, he also remembered that because Shang Fengzi had a large appetite, he first hunted wild animals to eat. Since the wild animals disappeared, he and he worked together for more than a month, and they had eaten all the money and clothes they had brought. I can't entertain people, so I can't help but get anxious.The smiling monk saw what he meant and said, "Don't worry. I'm a vegetarian. It doesn't matter if I eat or not. My junior brother eats meat. Our monks can go hungry for ten or eight days. You don't have to worry about us. I think Your words, deeds, clothes, face and palms, you must have come from a wealthy family, how did you come here? Tell me in detail. If you are in trouble, the two of us may be able to help you, I don't know." Hearing the words, the young man couldn't think , had no choice but to nod on the pillow, explaining what had happened.The laughing monk heard that the young man was not an outsider, but Zhou Yuncong, a newly recruited disciple of Taoist Zui, so he also told the story and became more happy.

It turned out that Zhou Yuncong, who was on the first episode, was trapped in Ciyun Temple. He went through all kinds of dangers and escaped from the dragon's lake and tiger's lair on a night of strong wind and thunderstorm.Walking to Qiu Lin's home, he met a drunk Taoist from the Emei School and took him under his sect.Because Zhang's father and daughter had saved Yun Cong's life, the Taoist drunk ordered Yun Cong to marry Zhang's daughter Yuzhen, and gave him a frost-tan sword as a betrothal gift to Yuzhen.Taoist Zui wanted to go to Biyun Nunnery to meet with all the immortals to discuss how to destroy Ciyun Temple. He hurriedly passed on Yuncong's introduction to a sword technique, and then he didn't go.After Yun Cong and Zhang's father and daughter paid homage to see the drunken Taoist away, the next day, Yun Cong's master and servant, Zhang's father and daughter, and a group of four set off for their hometown.Along the way, Zhang's father and daughter supported him, and he was happy that nothing happened.When he arrived in Guiyang, Zhang Laosi wanted to find a shop to live in first.Later, because of Yun Cong Shiliu's tragic death in the same year, he returned home halfway. Even though he didn't travel with him beforehand, it would be inconvenient. After thinking about it for a while, it's better to go together.At present, Yun Cong asked Xiao San'er to ride a fast horse, and first go to report to his parents in secret, and arrange a room in the inner room for Yuzhen to live in.

Zijing, Yun Cong's father, since Yun Cong left, within a few days, for unknown reasons, he felt frightened and restless.Nine of their old brothers are extremely friendly, and there is only one son in Jiufang, and they are all anxious about Yun Cong's entry into Beijing.They all regret having such a family fortune, and being a descendant of scholars, Yun Cong already has fame, so he is no better than a white man who only cares about the moment of pleasure, and let him trek across mountains and rivers to seek fame.With such a distance of thousands of miles, if there is a mistake, what should I do?The nine old brothers only met each other when they talked about Yun Cong's entry to Beijing.Zijing also said that his recent night dreams are ominous, and there are often warning signs.Not to mention Yun was a child, his old family, Wang Furuo, was old, and Yuan taught him not to feel sorry for money, and whenever he met someone on the road, he would send a letter home.When I first set out on the road, there were still constant letters of safety, but for many days, there was almost no news, which made people feel uneasy.When everyone heard this, they were anxious for a while.Zijing said: "It's getting late today. If there is no news tomorrow, I will definitely send someone to bring more money and hurry on the road to catch up. It would be great if I can catch Yun Cong back. Ru Yun Cong will definitely not return. Then ask that person to follow and take care of them. Ask the merchants along the way, and don't hesitate to spend, and ask him to send messages back at any time. If there is no convenient person, it will not be more than half a month at the latest. Even if someone goes back and forth, the information cannot be interrupted." Why.Although the Zhou brothers didn't separate their families, they all lived in the neighborhood, lived in separate kitchens, and had meals in rotation several times a month.Everyone was in a bad mood that day, so they went back separately.

Zijing was worrying and worrying when he suddenly saw Xiao San'er hurried in with a dusty face and a horsewhip in one hand.When Zijing and his wife saw Xiaosan'er turning around halfway, they were all shocked when they remembered the many warning signs of the day before yesterday.Pian Xiaosan'er ran too fast, and shouted at the person standing next to him to go out, which made Zijing and his wife more and more flustered, and no one dared to speak first to ask if the young master was safe.The little San'er was quite clever, and seeing that the master was in a hurry, the first sentence told people to go out, and the second sentence immediately followed: "Master and Madam Wanan! The son is back." Zijing and his wife were calm at first, and they didn't care about fame. After returning home, it was like a bright pearl falling from the sky. I was overjoyed, and asked the young master where he was now.Seeing that all the followers had retreated, Xiao San'er stepped forward and said in a low voice: "The young master has gone through all kinds of hardships, and was born and died. He was rescued by an old hero surnamed Zhang. Now he is escorting the young master back home safely. He is not far from home. The little one came back to report. Old hero Zhang has a girl, please ask the master to order someone to clean up the two rooms first. When the young master comes back, I will explain everything in detail." Zijing was surprised and happy when he heard the words, and ordered someone to clean up the house. He also asked people to send letters to the eight brothers, and kept asking the younger brother for details.Xiao San'er panicked: "There are so many things going on here, the young master said to keep quiet for now, wait until the young master meets, it's important to clean up the house first."

Hearing this, Zijing was helpless, so he asked his wife, Yang, to order someone to clean up the house first, and took Xiao Saner with him, and hurriedly went outside to watch.When the dusk passed and the sky was getting dark, I saw Yun Cong coming with an old man and a young girl on horseback.Xiao San'er rushed forward and grabbed the horse's bit.Seeing his father Yilu staring at him, Yun Cong couldn't help but feel sad when he remembered the past, and rushed forward to salute.At this hour, Zijing had already learned some general information from Xiaosan'er, so he hurriedly called him to stop him, turned his body to the side, and bowed to the guest to enter.My own little San'er and other people standing beside me went to help my colleagues take the luggage of the three of them and develop their skills.Zijing and his son led Zhang's father and daughter straight into the inner hall.Yun Cong's mother also had to be driven out by letter. When they met, she didn't care about anything else, first hugged Yun Cong in her arms, and called her good son repeatedly.Zijing knew that Zhang's father and daughter were heroes in the world, but he hadn't introduced them yet, so he had so much serious talk to say.While calling his wife, he greeted Zhang Laosi, father and daughter, to sit down.Yun Cong came over, greeted his father, and winked at Zijing first when he got up.Then he bowed to introduce Zhang's father and daughter, and said: "The child is not filial. Because he is impatient with the long-distance wind and frost, he is exhausted and thinks that his parents and uncles have no one to serve him. Halfway through the journey, he rushed home. The boat was in danger in the river. Many Meng Zhang’s father-in-law and Yuzhen’s sister saved the child from the hundreds of feet of torrent without regard for their own safety. Because Yuzhen’s sister was in a hurry to save the child, she forgot about the suspicion of a man and a woman. After thinking about it, she planned not to marry for life. After being attacked by a fairy, Hired sister Yuzhen as his wife, escorted her all the way back, and hoped that father and mother would forgive the child for the crime of entrusting the engagement. I will report all the details later."

Zijing was also very vigilant, seeing that what Yun Cong said did not quite match what Xiao San'er said, he knew why, so he stopped asking.Yun Cong's mother let Yun Cong go, and at the first sight of a woman with a beautiful face and a handsome appearance, she was already praising her.Ji Jing heard that she was Yun Cong's betrothed wife, the savior, and saw that she was accompanying her father, and gave up his seat several times, but he only thanked her humbly. The more he loved her, he knew the etiquette.Before Yun Cong could finish speaking, he went over and pulled her over, sat beside her, and asked her how she saved Yun Cong, asking her long and short questions.Because of Yun's instructions from the future, Yuzhen knows that there are many places to avoid people's eyes and ears; the unmarried daughter-in-law is in a dilemma when she meets her mother-in-law for the first time, and it is inconvenient to tell lies and answer neither.Just when Yun Cong had finished speaking, Zijing greeted his wife and said, "You are the first daughter-in-law, and you are afraid that you won't be able to finish asking when you have a few things to say. Why don't you come with me to thank my savior, Zhang's family, and just talk about it?" The mother reminded her that she forgot to thank her benefactor, so she hurriedly gave up Yuzhen, and as Zijing passed by, the couple bowed down.Zhang Laosi also quickly knelt down and paid homage.Yun Cong glanced at Yuzhen, and the young couple also knelt beside their parents.Zijing said: "A poor family, nine brothers, only this one son. This time, he shouldn't be a child, eager for fame, and trek a long way. If it wasn't for his in-laws and his wife to rescue him, he would almost die in the mouth of a fish and turtle. The ancestral blood diet will also be interrupted because of it. And because the in-laws did not abandon them, they arranged a marriage and personally escorted them here, which is even more grateful." Zhang Laosi was also a hero in the early years, good at coping, and he respected his son as a husband and wife at the first sight Knowing the etiquette, I don't want to be proud of my wealth. The more I feel that my daughter will be depended on for life, the more I am very happy, and I casually said a few words of humility.Let's say goodbye, get up and sit down.

Yun Cong's mother always wanted to ask for details, but when she saw Zijing winking, she couldn't bear it anymore, so she said to Zijing, "My daughter-in-law is far away, and just now Xiaosan didn't understand what she said, and I don't know where she lives. Does she care? Young people, please don’t wrong her. Just talk with your in-laws, and I’ll show her.” After finishing speaking, he said some polite words to Zhang Laosi, pulled Yuzhen, and walked inside.Yuzhen never thought that she would be matched with such a wishful husband, but her parents-in-law are so kind, and her heart is already in full bloom.Understanding what her mother-in-law meant, she immediately stood up with a smile on her face, supported Yun Cong's mother with her hand, and walked back.When Yun Cong's mother saw that she was so generous and smart, she loved her so much that she couldn't express it.The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law like to come in.do not mention.

Zijing and Yun Cong accompanied Zhang Laosi to look after the house, choose a good place to live, and dismiss the servants.Yun Congzao couldn't help bursting into tears, stepped forward and knelt down again, beat Ciyun Temple and escaped from danger, was rescued by Duomeng Yuzhen, met the drunken Taoist for the second time and gave him a sword to escape danger, let me tell you in detail.Although Zijing has self-restraint, he can't help but love him deeply, his heart is cut like a knife, and he can't stop crying.Immediately thanked Zhang Laosi again.Because everyone in the company has lost their lives, and each has his followers to stay in Chongqing, it is inevitable that there will be great disputes in the future.After discussing for a while, it was better to conceal it for the time being, and everyone came up with a unified rhetoric.The servants had already prepared the wine and food, and waited for the master's order.Zijing knew that it was getting late, and everyone else had eaten.Yun Cong was supposed to visit his uncles in person, but because there were too many people, and Yun Cong had suffered a lot, fortunately, everyone was friendly and regarded Yun Cong as his own, so he could not stick to etiquette, simply finished his meal, and ordered others To invite to reunion.The plan has been decided, Yun Cong's mother ordered Xiaosan'er to say that the wine and dinner have been placed in the inner hall, and the master and the young master are invited to accompany the master of Zhang's family to eat inside.Zijing heard the words, thought for a while, and then invited Zhang Laosi in.Yun Cong followed behind, seeing his mother's eyes were red and swollen from crying, knowing that Yuzhen had confessed the truth, he couldn't help being extremely sad, and stepped forward early, the mother and son hugged their heads and cried loudly again.Zhang's father and daughter comforted him again and again.

Although everyone remembered the past and was very sad, but the matter was over, Yun Cong came back unharmed, and got a beautiful chivalrous woman as his wife, joy after grief, all laughed through tears.Yun Cong and Yuzhen are a couple who have gone through adversity together, and Zijing and his wife are free-spirited people, they don't restrict their behavior, they eat while talking.Yuzhen is even more calm in dealing with it, answering every question.This meal of wine and dinner was very enjoyable.By the time we finished eating, it was nearly midnight.Only then did Zijing realize that he was so busy talking and laughing with everyone that he forgot to send a happy message to all the brothers.If you go to invite them at this time, everyone will be asleep, and maybe they will come in a hurry, saying that there are too many people, Yun Cong is tired from the long distance, and it is too complicated to deal with.Moreover, it is unreasonable to disturb the elders in such a late night.It was decided that Ming Chaoyun would come to Yun Cong's door to ask for peace.Having made up his mind, he talked to Yun Cong's mother.When Yun Cong's mother heard the words, she couldn't help saying "Aiya": "We just forget about it when we are only talking. It doesn't matter to other brothers and sisters, but she has a small personality and usually likes to gossip. Wouldn't you be offended by her when she was happy and angry?" Zijing said, "Although the second sister-in-law is confused, the second brother still understands. My nine brothers are all well-educated. It's late today, and the situation can't be fate. Er Dan went to her place. I will tell everyone the details tomorrow, even if the second sister-in-law finds it strange, the second brother may not be the same, let him go." The couple put the matter aside.

Zijing sat down with Zhang Lao Silian again to discuss the matter of Yuncong and his wife getting married, and they didn't go to bed until the middle of the night.Yun Cong's mother assigned two maids to serve Yuzhen, and told Yuzhen to sleep with her that night, and told Zijing and his son to sleep in the study outside.Father, son, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law inevitably have a lot to say in bed.

Early the next day, Yun Cong got up, and was about to visit the elders of the various households. After washing, he saw the servants entering the newspaper, and the masters and wives arrived.Zijing and his wife also received the letter. The father, son, and husband rushed out to welcome them, and all the brothers and sisters-in-law came in with happy faces.Zijing saw that the eight brothers and sisters-in-law of the eldest, third, fifth, and sixth ranks came, and the couples of the second, fourth, eighth, and ninth ranks were not yet here.On the one hand, he ordered Yun to kowtow to him from the front, and asked people to deliver the letter separately.Zixiu, Zijing's eldest brother, smiled and said, "Lao Qi, don't make any fuss. We don't know if Yun'er came back. It was around two o'clock last night. Your second brother asked people from house to house, saying that someone saw Yun'er coming back. Have you ever sent someone to deliver a letter? I guess Yun’er came back too late. You were afraid that he would not be able to make it by himself, so you didn’t ask Yun’er to go there. I think there must be a reason for Yun’er to return home without taking the exam this time. It would be too much work to ask him to go to each family to say hello and report back. So I got the information and hurriedly asked people to share with everyone, and ordered to come to your place for dinner and reunion early this morning. I didn't hear it all. When I came, I called out the third, fifth, and sixth brothers on the way, and I also asked someone to rush the second brother and the others. They must be here in a while." Zixiu is an elder brother, very upright, and most respected by his brothers. Loving Yuncong is like his own life.After hearing these words, Yun Cong hurried forward to thank Daddy for his love.As soon as he stood up, Zijing's second elder brother Zihua, fourth elder brother Zifan, eighth disciple Zhi, and ninth disciple Zhong also came one after another. Only Zihua was single, and the rest were couples.After the greetings were over, Zijing and his wife asked the second sister-in-law why she didn't come?Zihua blushed, and said, "Your second sister-in-law moved her fetus last night, and she feels a little uncomfortable today, so in the future." When Yun Cong's mother heard the words, she glanced at Zijing, and said, "When you were young, tell Yun'er to look at it." See what's wrong with his second mother?" Then he asked Zihua, "Have you asked the doctor to see it?" Zihua just agreed vaguely.Yun Cong was originally a son who inherited the incense from the nine houses, and all the elders came, busy to say hello and report, but did not go to Zihua's house at that time.The whole family is reunited, which is very happy.Youyun Congzhao wrote the words and sentences in business last night, and reported them in front of the elders.In the end, Yuncong's mother accompanied the sisters-in-law into the house, and led Yuzhen to come forward to see her.The new in-law, Mr. Zhang Si, was also introduced outside.Men and women do two banquets.

After the banquet, Yun Cong wanted to visit Zihua's home, but Zihua stopped him again and again, saying, "Yun Cong first came back, and your second mother is not seriously ill, so it's not too late to go again some other day." Zihua stopped him.We talked for a while, but it was too late.There was another night banquet one after another. During the banquet, everyone agreed that in the near future, they would choose auspiciousness to marry Yun Cong and his wife.They didn't go back until late at night.

Early the next morning, Yun Cong went to Zihua's home to visit him. He only saw Zihua, but Zihua's wife, Cui Shi, was not there.When he was about to go out, he saw a man standing at the door of the wing outside. He was born like a monkey, his face was powdered, and his eyes were flickering. He was not from Zihua's family.Seeing Yun Cong coming out, he flashed into the room.Yun Cong didn't pay attention to it at the time, and went to the uncles' homes on the way to report his well-being.These uncles were all old and childless, except for Zihua, every time Yun Cong went to a house, he would hang around for a while until late at night before returning home.Yun Cong knew that among all the aunts, only the second wife, Cui, was newly married. Her family background was not high, and she was at odds with her sister-in-law. She was afraid of her parents' displeasure, so she didn't bring up the matter when she returned home.In the end, I went there twice, but I didn't see him.When it came to Yun Congxi's time, Cui was about to give birth, let alone come.At this time, Wang Fu, the old man, had already been called back.Yun Cong has been discouraged by the world since he experienced a catastrophe.Because it was the teacher's order, and Yuzhen had the grace to save her life, she obeyed the order and got married.Although the husband and wife have deep feelings, they are indifferent in the boudoir.He stopped reading every day, either learning martial arts from Naiyue, or practicing with Yuzhen according to the sword formula passed down by Zui Taoist.In view of the danger of going out last time, Yun Cong's parents and uncles, he has no intention of fame, and everything is free for him.

Less than a month later, Cui actually gave birth to a son.As a result, a new sprout has been added to the Zhou clan, not only everyone is happy, especially Yun Cong is more satisfied.Zihua made a big banquet for three dynasties and a full moon.Relatives and friends who got letters and congratulated them were more lively than Yun Cong who got married.Three days after Yuzhen got married, Zeng followed Yuncong to visit the elders in each room. Only Cui's family was facing the moon and refused to see strangers within a hundred days. Even Zihua was not allowed to enter, only two personal maids and a nurse were allowed to enter. .Yuzhen didn't pay attention to it at first, and on the day of the full moon, the sisters-in-law still failed to meet Cui Shi.Returning home in the evening, just before leaving, Yuzhen was about to get into the sedan chair when she caught a glimpse of the simian-backed young man Yun Cong saw the day before yesterday, and couldn't help feeling moved.When I went home and asked Yun Cong, Yun Cong said: "Before I went to the banquet during the day, I saw that person once. Everyone thought it was a relative or friend who didn't see each other very often, so they didn't care. Inside the Uncle's house, I felt strange. When the banquet was over, when the second uncle saw off the guests alone, he went up to meet him. He wanted to ask who was the relative or friend of that person, and why he didn't introduce him to everyone. Before he said a few words, he saw the second uncle's face It was flushed red, and he hesitated to speak. Turning around suddenly, he saw the man standing not far from him, squinting, looking at himself, his face was not very good-looking. At the same time, the second uncle also accosted and walked away, without hesitation Ask." Hearing this, Yuzhen hurriedly went to Yuncong to invite her father in, and told the story.Hearing the words, Zhang Laosi was shocked and said: "According to my daughter, that person is a member of Ciyun Temple's henchman. The scholarly and official family in the house, how could they provoke such a villain?" Yun Cong was also shocked when he heard the words. Big jump, busy asking what happened.

Zhang Laosi said: "When I lived in seclusion in Chengdu, I thought Zhitong was a virtuous monk. It was not until two years later that I realized that he was lawless and wanted to avoid them. One has washed hands for many years and has little savings. Antu It is really not easy to rebuild. I am happy that there is no infringement for the time being, so I will postpone it. One day, my daughter and I went hunting in Wudan Mountain and came back. We met a group of strong men and walked into the temple at dusk. Inside. Walking across from each other, only he watched my father and daughter very much. On the second day, Zhitong sent someone to test my breath and invited me to join the group. When the visitor met, he would cut straight to the point and tell the truth, so that I could not deny it. I declined again and again, saying that I am old and weak, and my martial arts skills are unfamiliar. At this time, I only want to support myself and have no other ambitions. I swear to the sky that I will never spoil the affairs of his temple, and let the future people go away. Later, the more I thought about it, the more strange it became. When I was young, although I was famous all over the world, I won only with martial arts, not a first-rate swordsman. Zhitong himself didn’t say that there are many people who are proficient in swordsmanship under his sect. What use should I be? Not only do people like me, who have suffered from hardships and experience, never dare to take the risk of stroking the tiger's beard; Although he didn't join the gang, he had a good conversation with the Zhike monk, and we kept in touch with each other frequently. After slowly finding out their intentions, we realized that it was the man who leaked the secret. The man's name was Min Xiaotang, the blue-eyed baboon, and he was the adopted son of Zhitong. I and His master, Nanchuan Bandit Youwei, knew several things. When I first met him, I was only fourteen or fifteen years old, so I didn't recognize him. But he knew my details well. He didn't want me to join the gang to help, but he Seeing Zhen'er at the gate of the temple, he felt bad, and went to talk to Zhitong, intending to be an accomplice, and then Zhitong presided over the matchmaking. I refused, although I was not willing to accept, because he had something to go out at that time, and Zhitong also because of his good name He was away and refused to cause trouble near Chengdu. I didn't dare to interfere with his affairs. The thief Min had already left, so he let it go. I knew the truth, and I was deeply worried that it would be difficult to live there for a long time. If I left suddenly, it would be difficult to save it. Forbearance, I will talk about it when the time comes. On the one hand, I secretly saved money and abandoned my house to avoid it; I also borrowed some money from the vegetable garden, bought a dozen acres of land nearby, and tried my best to manage it, pretending to be a long-term plan to avoid their suspicion. You fled here. At first, I only knew that thief Min went out to commit crimes. He didn’t want his enemy to be on a narrow road, but the place where he attacked was at your house. This guy has a pair of strange eyes in his life, and he recognizes people the most sincerely. As long as it is him, sooner or later there will be disaster. The master is very good, if he learns swordsmanship from Zhitong, even my father and daughter are no match. For the current plan, I can only pretend to ignore it, while secretly telling my father, asking him to look at it and then asking Lingbo, what is this guy doing? If you are born close to the family, you can know his background and intentions. I will go secretly and recognize him. If it is him, maybe I have to invite someone like Ling Shi to come and pay."
