Chapter 7 Chapter Seven

Shangguan Feifeng said: "Shen Hong, tell them." The bearded man who used the one-legged bronze figure as a weapon stepped forward and said, "The two of us are ordered by our master to send a letter to Taoist Tianwu. Taoist Tianwu knew that we were coming to Yangzhou, and he had seen it before." After the letter I gave him, I went back to my room and wrote this trust, we brought it to Yangzhou and tried to deliver it to you." Shangguan Feifeng said: "It just so happened that I knew that you were going to come to the Chu family to settle accounts with me, so I brought you this letter along the way. Do you still want to settle accounts with me now?" If what Shen Hong said was true, The head of the Huashan School can entrust Shangguan Yunlong's subordinates to hand over the orders that the head of the Huashan School gave to the disciples of the school, so how can the Huashan School's disciples still embarrass Shangguan Yunlong's female mortals?

Daoist Tianji looked very troubled, ignored Shangguan Feifeng, but asked Shen Hong: "Has our master brother replied to your master?" Shen Hong said: "There are no letters, only oral messages. He asked us to report back to the master, and he already knew the matter. He thanked our master for his kindness." Tianji said coldly: "Excuse me for saying something rude, it's the first time I've heard your name. You're probably not a prominent figure at Mr. Shangguan's place?" Shen Hong said indifferently: "That's right, we are just nobody, nobody for the owner to run around."

Tianji said: "In this way, I have to be a little suspicious that our senior brother in charge will entrust this matter to you." He raised the letter, and then said: "Everyone has read it, the format of this letter seems to be a bit wrong." You must know that Taoist Tianwu has always been indecisive, and the affairs of the Huashan School almost all depend on Taoist Tianji.This time Taoist Tianji led the crowd down the mountain, and he was the leader of the same sect. Normally, Tianwu would not be so rude to him and give him an "examination".Even if he wants to "instruct" all disciples, it seems that he should "instruct" on his behalf.But what this letter wrote was only "Words to the disciples of our sect", it didn't mention his name at all, and it treated him as the same as all other disciples.

Yuxuzi said: "I was present when Daoist Tianwu handed over this letter to Shen Hong!" Tianji said: "You didn't read this letter at that time, did you?" Yuxuzi was displeased, and said: "Do you think I will peek at other people's letters?" Tianji said: "That's not what I meant, but since you haven't read it, how do you know it's the original letter?" Shen Hong said angrily, "What do you mean?" Tianji said coldly: "I don't know who the letter that the head brother entrusted you to deliver was addressed to, but I know that Mr. Gong Yehong of your sect is good at forging calligraphy and paintings, so he can take advantage of our senior brother's handwriting, I wrote another one."

Yuxuzi couldn't help but said: "Brother Tianji, I dare not say that you treat the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, but I was there that day, and I also heard that Taoist Tianwu wanted you to go back to the mountain .” Tianji sneered and said: "Yu Xuzi, I believe you are a gentleman, but these two brothers and I have never met; this Shangguan girl, I only know that she is Wei Tianyuan's friend." I can't believe it. Seeing that he was about to freeze, Yao Guang Sanren suddenly said: "I think this is indeed the handwriting of the sect master brother!"

Taoist Tianji snorted and said, "How can you see that?" Yaoguang Sanren said: "The word 'Yu' written by the head brother in cursive is habitually missing the stroke under the word '人'. It's hard for outsiders to know his habit!" Tianji was at a loss for words, and said for a long time: "Even if it is true, but this time, I sent many posts to many friends. When you came, you also agreed that I would take the helm. How can you give up halfway now and embarrass others?" With anticlimactic ridicule!" Shangguan Feifeng sneered and said: "Oh, so you are the one who took the lead and asked them to deal with me and Tianyuan with you. Okay, then you will be a 'tiger' to the end. I want to see if you are a tiger or a mouse!" It was so obvious that he was going to fight alone.

Even though Taoist Tianji had never fought against Chu Jinsong, he was still very scrupulous about Shangguan Feifeng's "Phantom Sword".He bite the bullet and said: "Hit it, hit it, am I still afraid that you will fail!" He said "not afraid", but he was actually afraid in his heart. Yao Guang said: "Brother, this is not the time to be angry, please listen to me." Tianji Taoist said: "Okay, tell me!" Yao Guang said: "I don't think anything is more important than taking revenge for the senior brother who is the head of the sect. Since senior brother Tianwu said that all the speculations in the past were not true, it means that he has a relationship with Qi Leming, Wei Tianyuan, Shangguan Yunlong and others. It doesn't matter to anyone. He wants us to go back to the mountain immediately, how can we disobey the order of the current head!"

Tiance, Tianshu and the others were all afraid of continuing the fight, but Wen Yanqi claimed that they were. Although Taoist Tianji spoke hard, he was actually timid in his heart. He just took advantage of this moment to step down the steps and said, "Since everyone advocates this, let's go back to the mountain and talk about it. The surname Wei, write down this account, and we will discuss it later." Count with you!" Qi Shuyu was almost captured by him just now, and before he lost his anger, he rushed to say: "Ox-nosed stinky Taoist priest, this account guard brother will not settle with you, I will settle with you too!"

Chu Jinsong didn't want to make extravagant tricks, and said, "Yu'er, don't talk too much. You'd better go and see you...ah, your mother has come out." At this time, the large-scale melee in the garden has stopped, and there are still some sporadic fighting.Mu Zhiyao's subordinates have not all retreated yet.The garden is still noisy. Mrs. Chu Zhuang Yingnan was worried about her daughter, and was coming out to look for her at this time.Qi Shuyu ran to her and said, "Mom, I'm here, I'm fine!" Their mother and daughter hadn't met yet, and suddenly someone shouted: "Junior Sister, come back!"

This person is Guo Yuanzai, and he is calling his junior sister Xu Jinyao. With disheveled hair, Xu Jinyao shouted as she ran, "Leave me alone, I'm going to ask Uncle Chu why he wants to help that little devil named Wei instead!" Before she could finish her sentence, suddenly a person came out from the sideways and grabbed her.Said: "That's right, if you want to avenge the murder of your father, you have to rely on Commander Mu. Mr. Mu is missing you, come back with me!" This person is Han Zhuguo, an officer of the Royal Forest Army, and he and Lu Tingfang are the leaders of the "Eagle Claw Sun".He was the one who injured Wei Tianyuan with the poisonous nail.

Zhuang Yingnan was shocked when he saw this, and quickly ran up and waved his sleeves. All he got was a "slap", scars appeared on Han Zhuguo's face, the skin was broken and blood flowed, but luckily he did not lose his eyes.It was too late to say, and soon, Han Zhuguo had already lifted Xu Jinyao up as a shield to block Mrs. Chu. Holding a dagger in his hand, he pointed it at the back of Xu Jinyao's neck and said with a sneer, "I don't know whether I should call you Mrs. Qi or Mrs. Chu, but no matter who it is, you can't touch this Miss Xu. She is the one our Mr. Mu wants. The young master has ordered that if you can’t take her back alive, you can take her back dead. If you want to snatch her back, I will kill her first! Let me tell you, my dagger is poisonous!" Mrs. Chu is afraid of throwing a mouse, she has all the skills, but she is helpless. Shangguan Feifeng stepped forward suddenly, and said with a smile: "You are just asking for hostages, how about I exchange this Miss Xu? Wouldn't it be more credit for you to escort me to the capital and give it to Mu Zhiyao?" Although Han Zhuguo was tempted, he thought: "How can I provoke this witch?" He quickly shouted: "Don't come here, all we want is Miss Xu!" Shangguan Feifeng sighed: "This really makes me sad. It turns out that I gave it to others, and they don't even look down on them." Suddenly there was a flash of cold light, Han Zhuguo shook twice, and fell down slowly.When he fell down, his throat was split open.It turned out that he had been killed by Shangguan Feifeng with the lightning-fast phantom sword.The quickness, ruthlessness, and precision of her strikes made Madam Chu unable to remain frightened. There was a snap.Shangguan Feifeng sheathed his sword, then smiled and said: "You look down on me, so I have no choice but to kill you!" Xu Jinyao was able to get out of Han Zhuguo's grasp in a daze, and she was frightened. Guo Yuanzai supported her and said, "Junior Sister, why don't you thank this Shangguan girl for saving her life!" Xu Jinyao was still in shock.Looking at Shangguan Feifeng with eyes, he was still speechless. Shangguan Feifeng laughed, and said: "I can't really say thank you. I know that you and Wei Tianyuan had a feud, and I helped Wei Tianyuan in that matter. All grievances and grievances can be written off!" What else can Xu Jinyao say?She thought to herself: "Daddy actually deserved what he deserved. Can I really rely on Mu Zhiyao to avenge me?" She had no choice but to say nothing, acquiesced to the conditions proposed by the other party, and left with Guo Yuanzai. Wei Tianyuan said: "Hero Chu, I'm the one who got you involved this time!" At this time, the Huashan faction was gone, and the mixed "chivalrous way" invited by Taoist Tianji also left, and the "Son of the Eagle Claw" had already left cleanly.But there were more than a dozen corpses left on the ground, more than half of which belonged to the "grandson of Eagle Claw". Chu Jinsong said with a wry smile: "Brother Wei, don't say such things. Mu Zhiyao has long been suspicious of me. Even without you, I can't live at home. Forgive me for not sending you off." He was busy making arrangements to abandon the house It's a matter of evacuation. Mrs. Chu came up and said, "Nephew Wei Xian, if you have a chance to meet her father..." Wei Tianyuan said: "Auntie, please give me instructions." Suddenly, he felt that the title "Auntie" was a bit inappropriate, so he avoided her gaze. Zhuang Yingnan didn't seem to know what to say, paused for a while, and then said: "If you have a chance to meet her father, I ask you to send a message. Just say, just say that Yu'er is with me, and tell him not to worry. " After Wei Tianyuan agreed, he turned around and said to Qi Shuyu, "Junior Sister, thanks for your help tonight." He also didn't know how to proceed.In the past, there would never have been such commonplace polite words between them. Qi Shuyu's expression became even more lonely, and he said lightly: "Congratulations, you have found a talented and beautiful sister-in-law." Wei Tianyuan knew that his junior sister had heard his prayers before Jiang Xuejun's "spirit", so he could only smile awkwardly. Shangguan Feifeng smiled generously at her and said: "Thank you so much, he and I are just engaged, not necessarily your sister-in-law." Wei Tianyuan plucked up his courage and said: "Junior sister, please tell me, where is Mr. Xue's body? Has it been buried? What happened to the 'moring hall' last night?" Qi Shuyu didn't answer his question, but said coldly: "Oh, you still remember Sister Xuejun, I really want to thank you for her." Wei Tianyuan said: "I'm here to take care of her funeral." Chu Tianshu said: "I heard that her body was moved away on the same day. We don't know who it is, but you will definitely know in the future. Mr. Xue is my junior sister, and this mourning hall was arranged for her by our brothers and sisters." Yes, it's just a little mourning for her." When he said "you will know in the future", he glanced at Shangguan Feifeng intentionally or unintentionally. Qi Shuyu said coldly: "Brother Wei, on behalf of Sister Xuejun, I would like to thank you for coming to pay her respects, but I don't want to see you again. You go!" Wei Tianyuan was excited, and suddenly felt dizzy, gold stars were flying in front of his eyes, his figure was like a candle in the wind, crumbling!It turned out that he had been poisoned for a long time, and he was stimulated again, so he couldn't hold it anymore. Zhuang Yingnan said: "Oh, Yu'er, how could you be so angry with your senior brother?" Shangguan Feifeng said: "I will detoxify him, it's alright." Immediately he touched Wei Tianyuan's sleeping point, and then ordered his subordinates to carry him into the prepared carriage. The Chu family was busy fleeing, and only Ding Bo sent her out. Ding Bo said: "Miss Shangguan, I want to apologize to you. This play, oh, I can't think of it..." Shangguan Feifeng said: "You sang very well in this play, what's your fault?" It turned out that "this play" was arranged by her and Ding Bo. Ding Bo said: "Although I didn't go out of my way, I didn't expect this scene to be so fake! If you didn't come in time, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to get off the stage." Shangguan Feifeng said: "The first half was a play, the second half is no longer a play. Those people came uninvited and insisted on playing the role of thugs in the play we made up. What do you have to do with it? These people have no choice but to drive them out of power." Ding Bo smiled bitterly and said, "It can also be said that someone asked to sing an opposite show with us. But there is one thing I don't understand..." Shangguan Feifeng said: "You are wondering why I arrived in time, right? According to the original arrangement, I didn't have to go to the Chu family to perform on stage in this play." Ding Bo said: "Have you gotten wind of it?" Shangguan Feifeng said: "That's right, I came here to drive them off the stage because I knew they were going to sing the opposite. After I broke up with you that night in Baoding, I already knew that Mu Zhiyao sent people south, and later I ran into him in Jinling." Where is that precious young master Mu Zhiyao?" Ding Bo said: "The Eagle Claw Suns are easy to deal with, but the behavior of the Huashan group is a bit unexpected. First, I don't understand why they seem to have a deep hatred with the Qi family. Their head was killed. , originally had nothing to do with the Qi family, but they wronged our young master before, and now they are accusing young master Wei. Second, your subordinates fought with those Yingclaw grandsons, and they obviously helped Yingclaw grandson .” Shangguan Feifeng said: "I didn't expect Tianji and his group to come so fast. But he must come to oppose me and Tianyuan, but I did not expect it." Ding Bo was startled and said, "Oh, it's already in your expectation." Shangguan Feifeng said: "You will understand soon. Well, don't worry about letting me take your Young Master Wei away?" Ding Bo said: "Young Master Wei pays for you, this is the common wish of the young master and me. That's right, my young lady is ignorant and offended you, please don't take offense." Shangguan Feifeng said: "How can I have the same knowledge as her." Then he smiled and said: "This play is actually done for your young lady. She and the young master of the Chu family, judging from the situation last night, it is expected that they can learn from brothers and sisters. Become a married couple. This is your master's greatest wish, right?" Ding Bo said: "Thank you, Miss, for helping them." Shangguan Feifeng said: "Okay, then you can go back with peace of mind." She returned to the carriage, felt Wei Tianyuan's pulse, and found that his pulse was close to normal, she was very happy, and thought to herself: "It seems that his internal strength has improved a lot compared to a month ago. Although he I have already taken a Jade Spirit Pill, and the poison in it is not very severe, but if the internal strength is not enough, it is absolutely impossible to get better so quickly." Shen Hong said with a half-smile, "Although there was a little unexpected trouble this time, things went smoothly. Congratulations girl." Shangguan Feifeng said: "Drive quickly, take it easy, don't wake him up." She didn't know that Wei Tianyuan's internal energy attainment was still higher than her estimate, although he was still sleeping at this time, he already had a little bit of hazy awareness. When Wei Tianyuan woke up, he was already at Gong Yehong's house. When he opened his eyes, he saw Shangguan Feifeng. "Okay, you're awake, let's have some porridge first." Shangguan Feifeng said. "Unexpectedly, what happened to the ancient temple last time will happen again. This is the second time you serve me." Wei Tianyuan smiled wryly. Shangguan Feifeng said: "This time is different from last time, last time you were injured by Murong Chui's poisonous palm, the old devil's poisonous palm is much more poisonous than the poison fed by Han Zhuguo's hidden weapon. This time I guarantee you It will be back to normal within two days." After eating porridge, Wei Tianyuan's energy improved a lot, and he asked, "Where's Uncle Ding?" He vaguely remembered that Ding Bo had come out to see him off, so he asked Ding Bo at the beginning. "He's gone back." Shangguan Feifeng said. "You seem to have spoken to him. Did he blame me for refusing to go home with him?" Shangguan Feifeng was taken aback and said, "You heard me talking to him?" "I don't know if I'm dreaming, but I just vaguely heard him calling me. But since he came to see him off, he will always have something to say to you, right?" Only then did Shangguan Feifeng feel relieved, and said: "He did say something to me, and this thing was actually in my expectation." Wei Tianyuan said: "What is it?" Shangguan Feifeng said: "Why do you think Ding Bo came to the Chu family?" Wei Tianyuan said: "Didn't you come to look for me to go back?" Shangguan Feifeng said: "This is only half of the reason." Wei Tianyuan said: "What about the other half?" Shangguan Feifeng said: "Guess." Wei Tianyuan smiled and said: "Of course it is for my junior sister. Grandpa is old, and my junior sister and I must have someone go back to serve him. Uncle Ding is well-informed. He first found out that junior sister is in the Chu family, so he came here." .” Shangguan Feifeng smiled and said: "You also only know one of the half reasons, but you don't know the other." Wei Tianyuan said: "Oh, what's the second one?" Shangguan Feifeng said: "That's right, he came here for your junior sister. But the most important thing is not to bring her home, but for her lifelong event." Wei Tianyuan was taken aback for a moment, and said, "You mean her and Chu Tianshu?" Shangguan Feifeng said: "Can't it? They are neither the same father nor the same mother, they just have the status of brother and sister." Wei Tianyuan said: "I have no intention of disapproving of their marriage. On the contrary, if they can become a couple, the feud between the Qi and Chu families will be resolved." Shangguan Feifeng said: "The idea is from Mu Juanjuan, the silver fox, and your uncle Qi Leming has already agreed to their marriage. Ding Bo was entrusted to come here to make this happen." Then, he smiled and said : "Actually, Ding Bo doesn't need to match them up. You were at Chu's house last night, so you should be able to see that the two of them are in love with each other, right?" Wei Tianyuan smiled and said: "That's right, I don't think their relationship is just like brothers and sisters in name. Well, they are indeed very suitable for a while." Then he laughed: "Now I understand, so what you said before , I arrived in Yangzhou, there may be a piece of good news waiting for me, so it was referring to this matter." Shangguan Feifeng said: "Then you can rest assured of this little junior sister?" Wei Tianyuan said: "I'm like you, a stone in my heart can finally be let go now." One must know that before Yangzhou in the future, he was still a little worried that his junior sister's remaining affection for him would not end. Shangguan Feifeng blushed, and said: "You say you're fine, don't drag me. Do you think I must marry you?" Wei Tianyuan sighed suddenly, and said: "Speaking seriously, I can rest assured, little junior sister, but there is another matter, another matter..." Shangguan Feifeng said: "You mean the whereabouts of sister Xuejun?" She was careless for a while, and then she realized that the word "remains" was missing. Wei Tianyuan did not think so carefully, nodded, and said, "That's right, I don't know who took her body away, so I'm worried!" Shangguan Feifeng said: "Actually, you don't have to worry. The person who removed Sister Xuejun's body probably wouldn't have any ill intentions towards her." The reason is easy to understand, if that person wanted to kill her body, he would kill her on the spot. Wouldn't it be easy, why bother to move back? At this time Wei Tianyuan had calmed down.After thinking about it carefully, he nodded. Shangguan Feifeng said: "Don't worry, in a few days, I will investigate for you and find out." Wei Tianyuan said: "Then I will thank you in advance for her." Shangguan Feifeng said angrily: "We have already decided on the status of husband and wife, and you still say such unreasonable words!" Then he sighed and said: "Sister Xuejun knows that you care about her so much, she should die in peace." Wei Tianyuan felt a little embarrassed, and said: "I also care about you, but you don't know it." Shangguan Feifeng said: "Don't get me wrong, I'm not jealous of her." Wei Tianyuan said: "I'm not talking nonsense to coax you to like it. Do you know that for you, I almost got into a fight with Uncle Ding and Hero Chu!" Shangguan Feifeng said: "Oh, for me? What's going on?" Wei Tianyuan said: "They said that a group of people decided to come here at midnight last night to arrest you..." Shangguan Feifeng said: "So, you want to come back right away to share my troubles, right?" Tian Yuan said: "That's right, but they don't allow me to come back." Shangguan Feifeng said with a smile: "It's for your own good too!" Wei Tianyuan said: "I know, but how can I let you bear the disaster alone, whether it is death or life, we should all be together, right?" Shangguan Feifeng burst into tears, and said: "Wei Lang, you are so kind to me, even if I die now, I will be willing." Wei Tianyuan said: "We still want to live together for a hundred years. How can I let you die? But I didn't expect that it was you who came to save me instead of me rushing back to save you. Was everything okay here last night?" Shangguan Feifeng said: "After you left, I noticed that there were a few suspicious-looking people walking around in Pingshan Hall, but the group of people Ding Bo mentioned had all gone to Chu's house. That's right, It must be the result of their investigation. Knowing that you have gone to Chu's house, they thought I was there. So they all came to Chu's house. It was because I found out that there was suspicious spying, and you didn't come back for a long time, so I rushed there Yes." She made up a lie for Ding Bo, making it reasonable, and Wei Tianyuan believed it. Shangguan Feifeng said: "I hope you can ride a horse tomorrow. If you can't ride a horse, you can also take a car. Because tomorrow morning, we will leave here." Wei Tianyuan sighed, "It's all because of me that I have troubled you." Shangguan Feifeng said: "This is none of your business. Yes, Yingclaw Sun already knows the location, Gong Yehong and we must leave. But after the battle at Chu's house last night, Mu Zhiyao sent The Eagle Claw Suns have already suffered more than half of their casualties, and before they get a new right-hand man, at least they can keep safe here for a few days." Wei Tianyuan said: "Then why did you leave in such a hurry?" Shangguan Feifeng said: "It was Daddy who called Shen Hong and Tu Zhuang to urge me to go back." Wei Tianyuan said: "Is there anything at home?" Shangguan Feifeng said: "It's not a big deal, it's the White Camel Mountain Lord who wants to take Daddy's seat." Wei Tianyuan said: "My father is the thirteen sects of the Western Regions who are respected as the 'sovereign', right?" Shangguan Feifeng said: "That's right, the White Camel Mountain Master wants these thirteen sects to no longer serve my family's spiritual banner and listen to his orders instead." Wei Tianyuan snorted and said: "I didn't expect him to have such courage, it's really immoral and reckless!" Shangguan Feifeng said: "You shouldn't underestimate him too much, his martial arts may not be as good as daddy's, but his Ice Palm and Flaming Knife are better than Murong Chui's, daddy may not be Those who can restrain him. What's more, he also has a wife who is good at poisoning Jinhu to help him, and his subordinates are no less than daddy." Wei Tianyuan said: "A member of the thirteen sects, are you willing to support him?" Shangguan Feifeng said: "That might be, I think at least half of the people will follow him." Wei Tianyuan said: "Why? Are they not afraid of 'If you don't serve the Spiritual Banner, you will be punished with a phantom sword'?" Shangguan Feifeng said: "Because the benefits given to them by the White Camel Mountain Master will definitely be more than the benefits my father gave them. You know that the White Camel Mountain Master uses marijuana to make immortal pills. Over the years, he has been doing this drug trafficking The business has made a lot of money. Moreover, many members of the thirteen sects have become addicted to taking the 'Shenxian Pill'." Wei Tianyuan frowned and thought to himself: "I don't care about fighting for fame. I am not interested in profit, but this White Camel Mountain Master, I cannot allow him to do evil!" Shangguan Feifeng said: "Daddy lacks capable helpers around him. What happened like this, of course I have to rush back to help Daddy." After finishing speaking, he stared at Wei Tianyuan with an expectant look. Wei Tianyuan smiled and said: "As the saying goes: an ugly daughter-in-law must meet her father-in-law. Conversely, an ugly son-in-law must also meet her father-in-law." Shangguan Feifeng said happily: "The first sentence you said, I thought you were making a detour. You laughed at my ugly appearance. It turns out that you are willing to go home with me." Wei Tianyuan touched the scar on his face, and said with a smile: "In terms of appearance, you and I can be regarded as a colorful phoenix following a crow, and of course I can only be ugly. However, the word 'ugly' does not simply refer to appearance. The ability also belongs to the category of 'ugly'." Shangguan Feifeng smiled and said: "If you choose beauty and ugliness according to your ability, you should be considered a handsome man." Wei Tianyuan scratched her face and said, "I don't know how to be ashamed, I haven't asked you to 'praise my son-in-law' yet." Shangguan Feifeng said: "To be serious, Daddy just needs a capable assistant like you. If you are willing to go back with me to help him, I can rest assured for him." Wei Tianyuan said: "Why do you still say that? Isn't your father my father?" Shangguan Feifeng smiled and said: "That's right, I said something wrong. My home is also your home, how can you say that you come home with me." Wei Tianyuan sighed and said: "Unfortunately, I have already lost my parents, and I am already homeless." Shangguan Feifeng said: "Don't mention these sad things." Wei Tianyuan said: "When it comes to the White Camel Mountain Lord, I have to mention it. You must know that the White Camel Mountain Lord is only planning to fight against your father, but he has long been my enemy. Although my father is not The hidden weapon he killed, the big inner guard used to hurt my father was his poisoned hidden weapon. Also, the poison Xu Zhongyue used to poison Jiang Xuejun's father to death was also obtained from his wife, Jinhu!" Shangguan Feifeng said: "You join forces with my father, this revenge will definitely be avenged!" Wei Tianyuan said: "I also believe that it will be possible. Therefore, what you just said should be reversed. I am not going to help your father, but I am going to get his help." Shangguan Feifeng pretended to be angry and said: "Just now you blamed me for talking against you as an outsider, why are you here again?" On the face he pretended to be angry, but in his heart he was very happy, she knew that Wei Tianyuan would not leave her. The next day Shangguan Feifeng got up early in the morning and saw Wei Tianyuan already flexing his fists in the yard. Shangguan Feifeng was both surprised and happy, and said: "You punched very hard, it seems that you can ride a horse?" Wei Tianyuan withdrew his fists and kicks, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect it to heal so quickly this time, let alone riding a horse, you can also run." Shangguan Feifeng said: "Okay, let's go." Shen Hong and Tu Zhuang have already prepared horses to serve. Wei Tianyuan said: "Why don't you see Mr. Gongye?" You must know that although Gongyehong is Shangguan Feifeng's father's subordinate, he is also the master of the residence, and Wei Tianyuan should bid farewell to the master according to etiquette. Shangguan Feifeng said: "He took a step ahead, the calligraphy and paintings hidden here have already been removed yesterday." Wei Tianyuan didn't take it seriously, so he got on his mount and rode west together with Shangguan Feifeng and others. All the way without incident, I crossed the Yellow River this day and passed by the foot of Huashan Mountain at noon. Wei Tianyuan recalled the grudge with the Huashan faction, and said: "Taoist Tianji must have returned to Huashan. That night, he was forced to quit the Chu family. I wonder if he will go back to stir up trouble?" Shangguan Feifeng said: "It's probably inevitable to provoke right and wrong." Wei Tianyuan said: "There is one thing that I can't figure out after much deliberation." Shangguan Feifeng said: "What's the matter?" Wei Tianyuan said: "Taoist Tianji and I have always been incompatible, but for some reason, he seems to hate me very much?" Shangguan Feifeng said: "That's because of your uncle Qi Leming. He doesn't know about us, I'm afraid he still regards you as Qi Leming's son-in-law." Wei Tianyuan said: "Actually, Martial Uncle Qi has no enmity with their Huashan faction. He falsely accused Uncle Qi of being the murderer who assassinated their former head, Daoist Tianquan. This matter is also inexplicable." Shangguan Feifeng said: "If you want to know the reason, go to Mount Hua with me." Wei Tianyuan said: "Don't be joking, I'm still a little afraid of running into them here and causing trouble again. Let's go quickly." Shangguan Feifeng suddenly said solemnly: "I'm not joking, have you forgotten that I once promised Hero Chu to resolve the quarrel between him and the Huashan faction for him?" Wei Tianyuan's heart shivered, and he said: "Yes, this is a big deal. It doesn't matter if I offend the villain, but the hero Chu offended the Huashan faction because of me, I should clarify this matter with Daoist Tianwu .but……" Shangguan Feifeng said: "However, the right time has come, right?" Wei Tianyuan nodded, and said: "Yes, this is a big matter. I didn't ask someone to clear it up beforehand. I'm afraid it's a bit reckless to go up the mountain like this? Although Taoist Master Tianwu is loyal, Tianji and his group are in Chu The fact that the family was expelled is quite a shame for the Huashan faction, even if Taoist Master Tianwu doesn't embarrass us, I'm afraid his disciples..." Shangguan Feifeng smiled and said: "How do you know that no one can clear it up? Don't worry, Taoist Master Tianwu is usually indecisive, but today we go up the mountain, he will definitely not let his disciples make things difficult for us." Seeing that she was so sure, Wei Tianyuan was dubious and asked, "What kind of medicine do you sell in your gourd?" Shangguan Feifeng smiled and said: "When you arrive at Mount Hua, don't you already know?" Wei Tianyuan became curious and said with a smile: "You have always had great supernatural powers, well, let's see what kind of supernatural powers you use this time?" Mount Hua was dangerous and it was inconvenient to ride a horse. Shangguan Feifeng left Tu Zhuang to guard the horses, and only took Shen Hong up the mountain with them. The three performed extremely lightness kung fu and arrived at the "thousand-foot building", which happened to be noon. The thousand-foot building is a narrow stone gap between the two cliffs, with a "step" cut out in the middle. The "step" is steep and shallow, and it depends on pulling the iron chains hanging on both sides to go up and down.Except for a ray of skylight, there is no outside scene around this place, which is almost like a tunnel.However, ordinary tunnels are flat, but it is a steep slope, which can only allow one person to pass through, which is much more dangerous than tunnels. Wei Tianyuan said: "Mount Huashan's natural danger is indeed worthy of its reputation. I passed Canglong Ridge just now, and I thought it was extremely dangerous. Who knows that this thousand-foot building is more dangerous than Canglong Ridge!" Just as they were about to climb the thousand-foot building, two Taoist priests suddenly appeared.It was the two Taoist priests Han Gu and Han Xu who had been to the Chu family and had fought against Wei Tianyuan.They were the disciples of the former master Tianquan Zhenren, and they still believed in the words of their uncle Taoist Tianji, thinking that the master's murder was related to Wei Tianyuan. As soon as they saw Wei Tianyuan approaching, they glared at him immediately and shouted sharply: "Wei, what are you doing here?" Wei Tianyuan said: "Please see the head of your sect, Daoist Tianwu." Han Gu sneered and said, "Have you forgotten what you did in Yangzhou so soon? You still have the guts to ask to see the head of our Huashan faction? Get out of here!" Wei Tianyuan held back his breath and said, "I came here to explain to Taoist Master Tianwu just for this matter." Hanxu shouted: "There is no need to say more. Reciprocity, you instigated Chu Jinsong to drive us away that day, now we can only drive you away!" A thousand-foot building can only be climbed by one person, and they are guarding it dangerously, and one person will definitely fall off the cliff if they try to do it.It was precisely because of the favorable location that they dared to intimidate Wei Tianyuan. Of course Wei Tianyuan didn't really want to fight them desperately, he was at his wit's end when he suddenly heard someone shout: "You two nephews, don't be rude to the guests!" The top and bottom of the chi building came down. One is Tiance Taoist who ranks third among Huashan Five Elders, and the other is actually Gong Yehong. Han Gu froze for a moment, and said: "Uncle, is this guy surnamed Wei our guest?" He thought: "Even if the head of the sect has friendship with Shangguan Yunlong, he can only treat Shangguan Yunlong's daughter reluctantly. Just be a guest." Tiance said: "What counts? This Wei Shaoxia is the same as the Shangguan girl, he is the honored guest that the head asked you to welcome!" Hangu Hanxu was indeed ordered by the head of the sect to welcome the guests up the mountain.But they don't know who the guest is yet.Hearing what Taoist Tiance said, he was completely stunned.Believe it or not, they knew that this uncle never lied. Tiance saluted, and said: "They don't know the reason, Wei Shaoxia, don't take it for granted." Wei Tianyuan didn't know what the "inner reason" was, and said, "I was at the Chu family that night..." He originally wanted to apologize a few words, but before he could say it, Taoist Tiance rushed to say: "What happened that night was really a misunderstanding, please don't mention it again. The head of our sect is already waiting for you, three distinguished guests , please follow the poor road up the mountain." The more he said the words, the more polite he became, and even Shen Hong was counted among the "distinguished guests". With the guidance of Taoist Tiance, Hangu Hanxu dared not stop him. Gong Yehong went up to see him with the courtesy of master and servant, Shangguan Feifeng said: "Am I late?" Gong Yehong said: "Miss came at the right time, Daoist Tianwu has already arranged everything, we just need to wait for Miss to come." Only then did Wei Tianyuan understand that it turned out that Gong Yehong left Yangzhou one day earlier because he was ordered by Shangguan Feifeng to contact the head of the Huashan School.I just don't know what "arrangement" is exactly when he said "everything has been arranged". Without thinking about it, I could only hear the sound of the bell coming down from the top of the mountain, which made everyone's ears and drums ringing. Wei Tianyuan was taken aback, and said: "The bell was rung on the top of the mountain, right? The bell is still so loud when it reaches here!" Apparently this was not the usual morning and evening bell ringing in Taoist temples, not only Wei Tianyuan felt a little strange, but Han Gu and Han Xu also had expressions of surprise on their faces. Taoist Tiance explained: "This is the bell for our sect to summon the disciples. This bell is placed on the Lingxu Pavilion on the top of the mountain, and it weighs 5,400 jin. When it is struck, it can be heard for ten miles. It is not that something important happened, it will not Knocked." Han Gu muttered: "We just came back yesterday, why did something important happen?" Tiance said: "Isn't it a big event for a distinguished guest to come?" 上官飞凤道：“道长说笑了，我们份属晚辈，应邀上山，算得什么大事。” 卫天元也不相信巨钟是为他而敲，但却又多明白了一件事情，原来今日上华山一事，是上官飞凤早已得到天梧道长邀请的。只是未曾告诉他罢了。 天策微笑道：“敝派今日是有大事待决，但倘若你们不来，这件大事还是欲决无从的。故此迎贵宾、决大事，两事实是可以合而为一。” 涵谷、涵虚是第二代弟子中的头面人物，心里不觉有点不大舒服，暗自想道：“什么大事？天策师叔都知道了，掌门却不告诉我们。” 天策前面引路，一行七众，施展轻功，经过“回心石”、“百尺峡”、“鹰愁涧”几个天险，来到了华山顶峰。 只见楼台矗立，星罗棋布。卫天元虽然没来过，亦已知道这是华山派弟子所住的“群仙观”了。 “群仙观”前面是一个大草坪，草坪上黑压压的一片人头。 华山派的弟子早已聚集了。 天策道人朗声禀报：“贵客到！”华山派弟子，顿时整饰队容，两旁站立，天梧道人亲自出迎！ 天梧道长的以礼相待，虽然是在卫天元意料之中，但如此隆重，却是大出他的意料之外了。 不但卫天元有受宠若惊之感，许多华山派的弟子也觉得迎客之礼，似乎有点过分了。 天玑道人哼了一声，冷冷说道：“掌门师兄，这位姓卫的客人可是齐勒铭的弟子！” 天梧淡淡说道：“我知道，但我亦早已和你说过，齐勒铭与本派前任掌门被害一事，并无关系！”弦外之音，已是显然有几分责备天玑不该对客人无礼的意思在内了。 天玑一向是跋扈惯了的，天梧性格随和，虽有掌门之名，但实际事务，大部分却是取决于天玑的，可说天玑乃是有掌门之实。他听出师兄的责备之意，不觉脸色涨红，说道：“我也并非断定齐勒铭就是凶手，但当今之世，能够杀害天权师兄的人寥寥元几，齐勒铭的嫌疑恐怕还是免不了吧？” 天梧正容说道：“我说他没有关系，当然也包括了嫌疑在内。”齐勒铭都没有嫌疑，卫天元当然更加没有嫌疑了。 天玑落不了台，硬着头皮顶撞一句：“师兄何所见而云然？” 天梧说道：“待会儿我自会向一众同门说个明白！” 天玑惊疑不定，心想：“他一向对我言听计从，怎的今日突然变了，难道……”他心怀鬼胎，不敢再来自讨没趣，只好讪讪退下。 天梧带引上官飞凤和卫天元在贵宾席上坐下，然后以掌门人身份宣布华山派的同门大会开始。 “本派前任掌门天权真人被害一案，迄今未破，本门上下，无不痛心。天梧继任掌门，有亏职责，尤其羞愧。好在如今已有线索可寻，破案大概是有指望了。” 他说完了一段话，立即就有好些心急的弟子问道：“谁是疑凶，请掌门说出来吧！” 天梧把手一摆，示意众门人平静下来，缓缓说道：“大家不要心急，缉拿疑凶是要讲证据的，首先咱们应该查究先掌门的死因。” 天玑自己不便说话，向涵虚抛了一个眼色。涵虚出来说道：“先师是给人暗杀的，还有什么死因？” 天梧道：“不错，先掌门是遭人暗算，以至身亡的。但你还记得当日的事么？” 涵虚说道：“那天师父接到一封剪大先生托丐帮用飞鸽传书送来的信。嘿嘿，说起这封信，和座上的一位贵客可是有点关连，我可以说出来么？”说话之时，眼睛望向卫天元。 天梧道：“我想这位贵客也不会介意的，你但说无妨。” 涵虚道：“请怒我直呼其名，这位贵客就是卫天元。说来有点不敬，当时江湖上许多人都是把这位卫先生当作、当作……” 卫天元微笑道：“我知道，许多人甚至到了今天，还是把我当作魔头的。你毋须顾忌，但说无妨。” 涵虚说下去道：“卫先生有自知之明，那是最好不过了。记得那年武林中发生了一件大事，卫先生在洛阳打伤了徐中岳，迫得他弃家出走避难京师。他知道卫先生一定会寻仇，就邀了他的两位朋友联名发出英雄帖，还请武林同道，上京助他对付卫先生。这两位朋友，其中一个就是剪大先生。” 天梧道：“但那天剪大先生托丐帮送来的信，说法可就两样了。” 涵虚说道：“不错，那封信是说他不想卷入漩涡，并请我们也不要参与此事的。先师正是因为觉得此信与英雄帖先后矛盾，怀疑其中必有一样是假的，因此召集本门长老会商，决定是否应该置身事外。那次会议，弟子与涵谷师兄也曾叨陪末座。会议未决，师父叫暂且散会，明日再开，不料散会未到半枝香时刻，师父已是遭人毒手了。” 天梧道：“这封信现在看来，就没有什么奇怪了。和徐中岳联名发出英雄帖那个剪大先生是假的。徐中岳所谓'避难京师'，其实乃是托庇于御林军统领穆志遥。他邀请来对付卫少侠的那班人，虽然也有侠义道在内，但更多的却是穆志遥的手下。” 涵虚道：“但这些事情，先师当时还是未曾知道的。去与不去京师，他也还未拿定主意的呢？” 卫天元道：“你是不是怀疑我因害怕令师来对付我，故丽先下手为强吧？” 涵虚说道：“谅你也没有这个本事。不过，也只能说你不是行凶之人而已。” 卫天元道：“哦，如此说来，敢情你怀疑凶手是受我指使？” 涵虚冷冷说道：“我没有这样说。你这样发问。我也不便答复你。因为掌门已经说过与齐家无关，我只能相信掌门的话。”弦外之音，他是仍在怀疑凶手是齐勒铭的，齐勒铭是卫天元的师叔，亦即是说他是怀疑此事和卫天元有关的了。 卫天元淡淡说道：“只要你相信我没这个本事，那就够了。其他的话，用不着我说。” 天梧道长咳了一声，说道：“题外之话，是不必多说了。回到正题来吧。当时情形，涵虚师侄已经讲得很清楚了。我们一听见掌门的呼叫，赶回去看，掌门已是遭人毒手，凶手亦已逃逸无踪。说老实话，当今之世，武功胜得过天权师兄的寥寥无几，莫说卫天元没有这个本领，即使是天下第一剑客金逐流，天山派掌门唐嘉源，齐燕然、齐勒铭父子，少林寺方丈痛禅上人，他们如果对天权师兄偷袭的话，也决不能在一招之内，就令到天权师兄毙命，但验伤的结果，他又确实是被掌力震毙的，各位不觉得奇怪吗？” 众人一听，果然都是觉得奇怪。涵虚讷讷说道：“那么依掌门师叔高见，先师的死因乃是什么？” 天梧说道：“我不想妄加推测，但我却想说另一件奇怪的事。在先掌门天权师兄遇害之前的那半年当中，他的精神好象远不如前，常常感到疲倦，那天的会议，就是因为他精神不佳，以至未得到决议，就不能不宣告保留的。” 天玑说道：“那半年问，正是先掌门修练上乘内功心法的时候。他因事务繁忙，不能闭关练功，只能在早晚的空闲时间来练，也许是他练功急于求成，才有这样病态。记得天权师兄也曾和我说过，当时他还恐怕这是走火入魔的预兆呢！” 天梧说道：“绝对不是走火人魔的预兆，也不是练功过于急进的缘故！” 天玑道：“那你说是为了什么？”语气已是不大自然了。 天梧道：“这件事最好还是让天璇师弟来说。” 天玑怔了一怔，失声道：“天璇，他、他不是已经……” 话犹未了，只见有两个人已经走上前来。 一个是曾任华山派长老的天璇道人，另一个更加引人注目，是四川唐家，人称唐二公子的唐希舜。 天玑道人面色铁青，他的说话也好象突然被“冻结”了。 “唐二公子，多谢你来帮我们的忙。”天梧以华山派掌门的地位，先以接待贵宾之礼。请唐希舜坐下，然后回到主位，当众向天璇赔罪。 “天璇师弟，欢迎你重归本门。当日的事，都是我做得不对，误解了你维护本门的一片苦心。” 天璇连忙赔礼说道：“这都是一场误会，师兄无须引咎。那日我的脾气也很不好，没有设法澄清误会，就拂袖而去。掌门师兄不加怪责，许我重列门墙，我已感激不尽，请师兄不要自责了。” 那一次的事情，是因天璇不肯把业已受伤的齐勒铭置之死地，引起以天玑为首的一班同门的不满，天梧无可奈何，只好让他自行脱离本派的。 当时天玑本是要求掌门师兄把天璇“逐出门墙”的，也幸亏天梧没有采取这种决绝的手段，否则事情就比较难办了。 按照武林规矩，被逐出门墙，若要重归本门，必须得到同门大会的通过。但若是自行退出的，请求重归门户，则只须掌门允许便行。 天玑作贼心虚，不敢出去反对。 涵谷涵虚则因掌门已经说过。他们师父被害一事与齐勒铭无关，而现在则正是查究死因的时候。他们虽然还有多少怀疑，但也只能等待，看死因查究的结果如何才说了。 天璇为人耿直，和同门的关系不算很好，但也不坏。涵谷涵虚都不反对，旁人更加不会反对。 天梧见众人都不出声，便道：“天璇师弟，请你说说先掌门的死因。” 天璇说道：“天权师兄遇害前的病态，我也曾经怀疑是由于练功急于求进的缘故，我曾经为了此事，向齐燕然老前辈请教。我是得到了掌门师兄的同意才去的。” 天玑冷冷说道：“你和齐家的交情很深，这是大家都知道的。你喜欢什么时候去拜访齐燕然，那是你的私事。用不着假借前掌门的名义。”言下之意，自是指天璇捏造前任掌门的遗言，“死无对证”了。 不料一直站在他这一边的涵虚却忽地说道：“这件事情，我倒是也曾听得先师说过。他说要判断是否因练功失当而生的毛病，那是必须在武学上有广博见识的，当今之世，能够达到这个标准只有两人，一个是上官云龙，一个是齐燕然。他说他本来想去向齐燕然请教的，但因事务羁身，只好耽搁下来。当时天璇师叔在场，天璇师叔说，师兄以一派掌门的身份，即使能够抽身，似乎也不宜向别人讨教。不如让他去吧。” 既然有涵虚证实此事，天玑自是无话可说了。 天梧道：“齐燕然怎样说？” 天璇道：“他问天权师兄的病态，又试了我的内功，他的判断是：这并非走火入魔的预兆，怀疑另有病因。” 天玑冷笑道：“齐燕然的话就能够完全相信么？” 天璇道：“不错，我对齐燕然的武学虽然佩服，但也怕他判断有误的。故而我决意以自己一试，闭关四十九日，练天权师兄研究出来的本门上乘内功心法，结果大家都知道，虽然我是未到期限，便即开关，元气稍为受损，但直到如今，却还未见有天权师兄那些病状。”他以四十九日练上乘心法，可说是比天权道人更为“急于求进”了。 天梧点点头，说道：“不错，这是一个很好的反证，证明前掌门在那半年间精神不济，并非是因练功急于求进的缘故。” 涵虚想起一事，问道：“天璇师叔，齐燕然的判断我是曾经听你说过的。但后面那句，他怀疑先师另有病因，你却好象未曾说过。他猜测的是什么病因？” 天璇说道：“病因若说出来，恐防会惹同门疑猜，而且，这也只是齐燕然的一种猜测，在当时还未能当作定论的，所以我一直不敢言讲。” 天梧道：“好，那你现在可以说出来了。”此言一出，华山派弟子都是惊疑不定。因为这句话的意思，亦即等于是说，齐燕然当时的猜测，现在可以作为定论了！exactly: How about knowing the future?Please see the breakdown next time.
