Chapter 49 The forty-ninth round of the old man in black

Miao Changfeng took a breath, calmed himself down, and said with a sneer: "Mou Zongtao, you don't have to be hypocritical, you just want to kill me Miao Changfeng with the wheel fighting method, isn't it what you want now, Miao will risk his life to accompany you , you are not afraid of the jokes of the heroes of the world, so come up!" When Mou Zongtao exposed it to him, he became angry from embarrassment, and said coldly: "I didn't intend to kill you, but if you say that, I will definitely kill you. Hehe, in this place, who would know if I killed you? Are you afraid of being laughed at by the heroes of the world?"

Miao Changfeng snorted, and said, "If you want to kill me, I'm afraid it won't be that easy. Come on!" He had already made up his mind, and he would use a unique move that would hurt both sides in a fight.Even if Mou Zongtao died at the hands of Mou Zongtao because of the force attack, he must be seriously injured. Mou Zongtao was a little hesitant, thinking to himself: "What does he have to rely on to dare to say such big words. Hmph, it's probably just to scare me, I don't believe he can still hurt me?" Fortunately, he had this moment of hesitation, otherwise if they fought immediately, one would die and the other would be injured as Miao Changfeng expected.

Just as he was about to step forward, shaking his folding fan, he suddenly heard the sound of running footsteps.Mou Zongtao shouted: "Who is it?" Seeing a person running out from the corner of the mountain col, Mou Zongtao was stunned when he saw it. Miao Changfeng took a closer look and was surprised when he saw clearly. It turned out that this person was none other than Mou Zongtao, his uncle Zong Shenlong. Originally, when Zong Shenlong came, Mou Zongtao should be happy.But Zong Shenlong was not ordinary, his face was stained with blood, and his expression seemed to be running for his life.

Miao Changfeng was going to fight for his life anyway, so although he was taken aback suddenly, he didn't panic.Immediately blocking the chest with the horizontal sword, he said with a sneer, "It's fine for you, uncles and nephews, to stand shoulder to shoulder!" Mou Zongtao was stunned for a while, and called out, "Master, what's the matter with you?" Zong Shenlong seemed to have lost his soul after being chased by others, and he didn't seem to hear what Mou Zongtao said.Running vigorously, he ran past Miao Changfeng without stopping. At this moment, an old voice said: "I haven't played to my heart's content, whoever wants to fight with wheels, I will accompany you!"

The voice of this person was exactly the voice of the person Mou Zongtao had heard in the thick fog on the day of the sword competition between Taishan and Jin Zhuliu. This person was the person Mou Zongtao feared the most in his life. Sha Miyuan shouted: "What's the matter with you? Who is here? You, you—" It turned out that Mou Zongtao also ran away with Zong Shenlong. At this moment, there was another clear and clear girl's voice floating in the wind: "Old man, please wait a moment. This junior has received great kindness many times, please allow me to see you."

Miao Changfeng was overjoyed and thought, "So Lin Wushuang is here too, no wonder Mou Zongtao scared her away." He only knew that Mou Zongtao and Lin Wushuang competed for the head of Mount Tai, and they were defeated by Lin Wushuang within ten moves.But he didn't know that what Mou Zongtao was most afraid of was far from Lin Wushuang, but the stranger who had never shown his face in the world. But when Mou Zongtao heard Lin Wushuang's voice, he was indeed more frightened and ran faster.Because it is not the right time for him to usurp the head of the sect, even if he and the master of the evil faction plot against Miao Changfeng, even if they can't hide it from Lin Wushuang, they can't let her get the handle on the spot.

Hao Kan saw Mou Zongtao running with Zong Shenlong, he couldn't help being surprised, and whispered: "I'm afraid it's a strong enemy, brother Sha, let's go too!" The monk snorted and remained silent. Before the words were finished, a person appeared at the corner of the col, a skinny old man in black. Sha Miyuan possessed the unique skills of Shaolin Temple, traveled across the rivers and lakes, and rarely met an opponent. Unexpectedly, he was defeated by Miao Changfeng tonight. He was feeling ashamed when he saw an unremarkable old man. He thought to himself: "Miao Changfeng was seriously injured. If I hit him again, I will definitely win him. Mou Zongtao probably wants to pretend to be chivalrous, so he wants to avoid this girl surnamed Lin. He is afraid that it is his fault, so why should I be afraid of her?" ? As for this little old man, I can knock him down with a single stick, so why be afraid?" He sneered and said, "If you want to run, run away."

The old man in black laughed and said: "Two have escaped, and the other two have not. Haha, my old man likes wheel battles the most. Which one of you will come first?" Sha Miyuan lifted his Zen stick upside down and shouted loudly: "Old man who got out of nowhere, dare to come here to disrupt the situation, eat me with a stick!" The old man in black said lightly: "Who am I? It turned out to be a wild monk who escaped from Shaolin Temple. You are no longer a monk, what do you need this Zen staff for? Give it to me!" Miao Changfeng's eyesight is much better than that of the novice monk, one can see that the old man's martial arts are not trivial.But seeing that his hands were empty, he was a little bit suspicious: "Sami Yuan's magic wand is really not to be underestimated. How could this old man in blue be able to take away his weapon with a pair of fleshy palms?"

While thinking about it, I saw the old man in black shaking out a long rope, saying: "I don't care about you, I can only bind you and send you to Shaolin Temple. Throw your stick!" With a loud roar, Sha Miyuan hit him with a move of "Oolong disturbing the sea".The old man in black flicked the long rope and wrapped it around his Zen stick, just as the word "Scattering the stick" came out, Sha Miyuan's thick bowl-shaped Zen stick was snatched by him. Sha Miyuan felt a numbness in his mouth, and leaned forward, the Zen stick was taken away by the other party for no reason, he couldn't help being shocked, turned around and left.It turns out that the highest level of martial arts is to use the power of the enemy for one's own use, and the method used by the old man in black to snatch the rod with a rope is exactly the essence of this.The crouching wand method is extremely powerful, Sha Miyuan's stick swiped towards the front, and the old man in black wrapped a rope around the tip of his stick, and used the two-character formula of "unloading" and "dial". He had to pull it lightly, and his Zen staff had to fly out of his hand.Miao Changfeng is a great expert in martial arts. Seeing his technique of grabbing the stick, he couldn't help but secretly admire him, thinking: "The way of martial arts is that there is a sky beyond the sky, and there are people beyond people. I also understand the principle of using strength to fight , but to use it as miraculously as this old man, I'm afraid it will take another ten years of hard work."

Before he could finish his thoughts, he saw the old man in black waved his arms, straightened the long rope, and shot out his Zen stick.Sha Miyuan was galloping, when he suddenly heard the sound of the wind behind him, he suddenly gave a "phoenix nod", the Zen stick flew over his head, with a click, it penetrated into the opposite mountain wall, only half of the stick tail was exposed, trembling endlessly. The old man in black laughed and said: "An ugly daughter-in-law has to see her family. Monk, although you can't do it, you still have to go back to Shaolin Temple!"

Sha Miyuan knew that he couldn't dodge, and shouted: "I've surrendered, don't bully me too much!" Grabbing the rope, this time it was two forces fighting in opposite directions, the stronger one wins, the weaker one loses, The rope was stretched like a taut bowstring, Sha Miyuan blushed and moved forward a few steps involuntarily.The old man in black shook his head and sighed: "You can count the internal strength of Shaolin Temple as your true inheritance, but you didn't learn it well, what a pity, what a pity!" Sha Miyuan suddenly let go of his hand, and rolled down the mountain.The old man in black said loudly: "I was going to tie you up and send you to Shaolin Temple, but I made a rule that you can only take one shot when dealing with juniors. Today is considered cheap for you, so you can do it yourself. If you still don't know how to repent, The old monk from Shaolin Temple will take care of you." When Sha Miyuan was fighting the old man in black, Hao Kan had already got on his mount and ran down the mountain.The old man in black turned his head and said with a smile: "Oops, another one ran away. I'm really old and useless. Are you the hero Miao Changfeng?" Miao Changfeng went up to meet Li, and said, "I'm ashamed to be a hero. Thank you for your help, old man. Please tell me your name." The old man in black said: "I don't have the time to talk to you politely, you know Lin Wushuang, don't you?" Miao Changfeng said: "What is your order, old man?" The old man in black said: "You will later Tell her, I don't want to see her now, tell her to go back to Mount Tai quickly, as for you and me, if there is a chance to meet again in the future, let's talk about it." He didn't say his name, and he disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.Miao Changfeng knew that experts outside the world often had weird tempers, so although he felt regretful, he was not surprised. Miao Changfeng thought to himself: "When Lin Wushuang arrives, she must know the origin of this old man." Suddenly he heard the sound of birdsong, looked up, and saw a green kingfisher flying over his head fly over.There was a long howl in the distance, which could be heard from the old man. The kingfisher spread its wings and flew high, as if listening to the call of its master, and flew towards the direction of the sound, but disappeared in an instant.Miao Changfeng thought: "This kind of kingfisher is rare, I dare say that old man raised it." After a while, he saw Lin Wushuang coming, Lin Wushuang was surprised and happy to see him, but before he had time to talk to him, he asked him: "Miao Xia, so you are here, can you see a kingfisher? " Miao Changfeng smiled and said, "Miss Lin, did you run up to Culai Mountain to catch a kingfisher?" Lin Wushuang said: "This kingfisher is raised by a high-ranking man. This high-level man is kind to me. I want to see him." Miao Changfeng said: "Then you don't need to chase him." Lin Wushuang said: "Ah! Did you see him?" Miao Changfeng nodded, and said, "He asked me to tell you that it's not time to meet you yet, so he told you to go back to Mount Tai." Lin Wushuang sighed: "This time the kingfisher led me the way. I only thought that this senior allowed me to meet him. But it turned out that he was guiding me to meet you here." Miao Changfeng asked in surprise, "The kingfisher will guide you?" Lin Wushuang said: "This kingfisher is very psychic. When I was in Taishan last year, it once guided me to find the secrets of martial arts in my school." Immediately told this matter to Miao Changfeng, and Miao Changfeng was amazed endlessly. Miao Changfeng said: "Do you know the origin of this old senior's name?" Lin Wushuang said: "Later, he also helped me twice, but he was always like a dragon. However, according to my guess, this worldly expert is probably a senior of my sect." Miao Changfeng said: "Then what happened this time?" Lin Wushuang said: "Did you also see Zong Shenlong just now?" Miao Changfeng said: "I see, his face is covered with blood, it seems that the old man forced him to run for his life." Lin Wushuang said: "This time, it was Zong Shenlong who wanted to plot against me, and that old man saved me again." It turns out that after Lin Wushuang and Qunxiong broke up in Yangzhou, they went back to Mount Tai with Shi Wei and his wife. Since Miao Changfeng wanted to find Liu Kang along Gaoyou Lake, they did not take the same road. Nothing happened along the way, but when they set foot on Mount Tai, they encountered an unexpected incident. Just as they walked up the famous "Eighteen Plates" of Mount Tai's natural danger, they were suddenly ambushed! "Eighteen Pans" are 18 twists and turns. There is a saying to describe the roads of "Eighteen Pans": "When the predecessors look back, they only see the heads of the descendants; when the descendants look up, they only see the feet of the predecessors." You can see how steep it is. Lin Wushuang had just walked to the bend of the third mountain, when the disciples of the Fusang sect got the news that two people came down the mountain to meet them. There were two stones the size of millstones rolled down.One of the disciples was a little slow to dodge and was seriously injured by the boulder.The rocks continued to roll down, and there was a big rock that blocked the narrow exit of the escape route. When Lin Wushuang recounted the situation that day, Miao Changfeng was thrilled, and said: "With such a formation, the person plotting against you is probably not just Zong Shenlong?" Lin Wushuang said: "That's right, there are three other masters of the evil faction with him, we only found out later." Lin Wushuang continued: "The situation at that time was extremely dangerous. The way out was narrow. The other party was condescending and pushed the boulder down. We really had no room to maneuver. In a blink of an eye, Mrs. Shi was also hit by the stone and fell down. , I was about to rush up and fight the enemy desperately, when suddenly the rocks stopped rolling down, and a vigorous voice shouted from above: "Zong Shenlong, you are doing mischief elsewhere, I don't care about you. You are on Mount Tai I can't tolerate you killing the disciples of the Fusang Sect!' Then it sounded like someone slapped two crisp and exquisite slaps, probably that old senior was slapping Zong Shenlong." Miao Changfeng shouted "Happy!" He laughed and said, "That's right, these two slaps made Zong Shenlong feel really uncomfortable. When I saw him, his face was covered with bloodstains." Lin Wushuang went on to say: "After two crackling slaps, there was the sound of howling like a pig being slaughtered. When I ran to the top, I saw three masters of the evil faction lying on the ground , Zong Shenlong has already run away. I watched from a high place, and I can faintly see that old man chasing him." Miao Changfeng said: "Who are those three evil faction figures?" Lin Wushuang said: "I only recognize one of them is Lao Quanyou from the Kongtong sect." Miao Changfeng sighed: "It doesn't take long for you to run from the third mountain to the fourth, Zong Shenlong is a first-class master, the other two don't know, Lao Quanyou's martial arts are also Right and wrong, this old senior was able to slap Zong Shenlong and subdue three masters of the evil faction in such a short time. His martial arts are really unfathomable! According to my guess, if this old senior wants to take Zong Shenlong's life is easy to turn back, he deliberately didn't catch up with him, let him learn a big lesson." Lin Wushuang nodded, and said: "It is precisely based on this that I infer that this worldly expert may be a senior of our sect. He did this to punish traitors of our sect, but it is also because of his fellowship. Therefore, I will not take the life of Zong Shenlong." Miao Changfeng laughed and said, "Zong Shenlong was scared out of his wits, this kind of punishment is enough for him." Lin Wushuang sighed: "I hope he can repent and turn around." Then he said what happened that day: "I watched from a high place, and I could vaguely see that old senior chasing Zong Shenlong. In a blink of an eye, they had gone far away." "I have been favored by this senior several times. Of course, I really want to see him, but I think it will be difficult to catch up with him, so I planned to talk about it after returning to the mountain." "Just when I was regretting that I missed this senior again, suddenly that kingfisher appeared in front of me, flying slowly and low, as if it wanted to lead the way." "Fortunately, Mrs. Shi was not seriously injured, so I entrusted the severely injured disciple of our sect to their husband and wife to take care of them, and asked them to escort the three evil sect monsters back. I have been chasing here until here, but I still don't know what to do. Can't see him." Miao Changfeng said: "From the tone of this senior, he will definitely meet you in the future. Didn't Zong Shenlong, Mou Zongtao, Shi Chaoji and others plan to mess with you on the day of the Jade Emperor's birthday?" The senior said It might happen that day." Lin Wushuang said: "I hope so. That's right. I haven't asked you yet. When I went up the mountain, I heard the sound of fighting. Who are you fighting with here?" Miao Changfeng said: "It's your cousin Mou Zongtao. But I haven't fought against him yet. The one I fought against was his accomplice, the traitor from Shaolin Temple, Sha Miyuan. Just when I was about to fight against him, the old man The seniors are here." Lin Wushuang frowned slightly, and said, "It's him again! Presumably he was also scared away by that old man?" Miao Changfeng laughed and said, "That's right. He ran away on the lookout. It seems that he was more panicked than Zong Shenlong. Maybe they were panicked today, and the plan to make trouble on the Jade Emperor's birthday may be postponed." Lin Wushuang said: "This time, the old man must have intended to let them know that he has been secretly helping me. But be prepared, of course I still have to be prepared and wait for them to come and make trouble." Then Said: "Hero Miao, I broke up with you in a hurry in Yangzhou that day, and I really want to see you again. I have something on my mind, and I would like to ask you to help me. That old man made me meet you, it seems that he knows my identity What's on my mind." Miao Changfeng was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Miss Lin, if you need me to help you, I will definitely do it for you." Lin Wushuang said: "Aren't you going to see sister Ziluo?" Miao Changfeng said: "That's right, do you have anything to say to her?" Lin Wushuang said: "She is a good friend of you and Brother Meng, and I admire her very much. The last time I was in Sanhe County, it was a pity that I couldn't meet her. There is a small gift, I would like to ask you to give it to me she." While speaking, he took out a sandalwood box, and continued: "This is an old ginseng given to me by Aunt Yuchi. Sister Ziluo is weak after giving birth, so it is the most suitable for her." It turned out that this was Yuchijiong. His wife, Avalokitesvara, prayed to the holy Into people to bring it to her as a gift to congratulate her on being the head of the sect.When she parted with Miao Changfeng in Yangzhou, this gift had not yet reached her. Miao Changfeng took the gift and said, "Thank you for caring about her so much." Lin Wushuang said: "Although she and I haven't met or talked formally, I feel very close to her in my heart. You care about her, and I care about her as well." It was only then that Miao Changfeng realized that what he said was inappropriate, and couldn't help being a little embarrassed, and said, "Zi Luo also wants to get to know you very much, and I will express your deep affection for her to her for you. What else talk?" Lin Wushuang said: "Please tell her that Brother Meng misses her very much. She is in good health. I hope she can go to Xiaojinchuan." Miao Changfeng said: "Is this what Yuan Chao told you to tell me?" Lin Wushuang smiled slightly: "He didn't say it, but I know what he's thinking. I believe I won't say what he wants to say wrongly." Miao Changfeng was greatly moved and thought: "If it were an ordinary woman, it would be difficult for her not to be jealous of Yun Ziluo, how could she be so open-minded?" Lin Wushuang said: "Hero Miao, there is another matter, I would also like to ask you to inquire about it by the way." Miao Changfeng smiled and said: "Yuan Chao and I are brothers, I'm not polite to you, you can follow Yuan Chao and call me Brother Miao. Don't call me 'hero, hero', I can I'm sorry. Please tell me." Lin Wushuang smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll call you Brother Miao without hesitation. There is an old Shao Shudu in the martial arts world. I heard that he has a good relationship with you?" Miao Changfeng said: "He is an old friend between my teachers and friends." Lin Wushuang said: "Senior Shao has a son named Shao Henian. I heard that he has been missing for a year. Senior Shao only has one son. He is very anxious." Miao Changfeng said: "Yes, I also know about this matter. Did you get any news about Shao Henian?" Lin Wushuang said: "It's like this: Senior Shao entrusted friends from all walks of life to inquire about his son's news for him, and our faction was also notified by brother Jin Zhuliu on his behalf. This time when I returned to Mount Tai, my disciples told me a piece of news. , it may have something to do with Shao Henian." Miao Changfeng said happily: "What news is that?" Lin Wushuang said: "Brother Miao, can you go north this time through Yucheng and cross the Yellow River?" Yucheng is a small county town on the south bank of the Yellow River. Miao Changfeng said: "This is exactly the path I want to take." Lin Wushuang said: "There is a Gang of Five Dragons in the Yellow River, the main rudder is located in Yucheng, and the gang leader is called You Daquan. Does Brother Miao know who he is?" Miao Changfeng said: "We are famous for each other, but we haven't met each other yet. Why, does he know the whereabouts of Shao Henian?" Lin Wushuang said: "I'm afraid Shao Henian is in his Five Dragons Gang." Miao Changfeng said in surprise: "Shao Shudu is a good friend of mine. As far as I know, he has never been in contact with these unscrupulous people in the arena. Shao Henian is his son, and he is a young boy who has just debuted. If you don't know your father's friendship, how can you make friends with the Five Dragons?" Lin Wushuang said: "The truth of this matter is still unclear, why don't I tell you from the beginning." "Brother Shi has a disciple who is from Yucheng. Last month he went home to visit his relatives. When he had a few days free, he invited an old friend to meet at the famous restaurant 'Yiyulou' in the county. The fine wine of Yiyulou is famous all over the world. , Brother Miao, you must have known it too." Miao Changfeng smiled and said: "I don't know, I drank there twice. Ten years ago, there was a big event that caused a sensation in Yimao Tower, and one of the protagonists of this event was yours. Brother Jin, you must know better than me?" Lin Wushuang said: "Ah, you said that brother Jin Zhuliu and brother Li Nanxing joined hands to fight Shi Baidu, the leader of the Liuhe Gang, in the Yimao Building." (Note: For details, see my book) Miao Changfeng said: "That's right. The first time I drank in Yimaolou was on the third day after this incident. At that time, Jin Daxia and I hadn't met yet, and when I heard people talking about this incident, I admired him very much. , so I knew that I couldn’t see him when I went to Yimaolou, so I made a special trip there to drink wine. The second time was last year, and like this time, I went north to Jinghua to drink the fine wine from Yimaolou , specially took the way to Yucheng." Up to this point, he suddenly realized that he was overwhelmed by others, so he smiled and said, "I've talked too much, so let's get down to business and talk about yours." Lin Wushuang said: "The news that my disciples told me is exactly what happened in Yilu Tower ten years ago is happening again. But, of course, the characters have all changed." Miao Changfeng was taken aback, and said, "Is Shao Henian playing the role of Jin Daxia back then? Then who is 'Shi Baidu'? Could it be the leader You of the Five Dragons Gang?" Compared with Jin Zhuliu back then, but You Daquan can't be compared with Shi Bai back then, no matter in terms of martial arts or evil." Lin Wushuang said: "The truth is not yet clear, I only know that someone fought with members of the Five Dragons Gang on the Yimao Tower that day, and whether it is Shao Henian or not, I have not yet dared to say." Miao Changfeng said: "Did the disciples of your sect see it with their own eyes?" Lin Wushuang said: "No. He heard it from his friends. That day he went to Yimao Building for an appointment. Across the street, he could faintly hear the noise of the Yimao Building, the sound of shouting and swearing, and the breaking of dishes. The crackling sound, one can tell that someone is fighting upstairs." "Just as he was hesitating, he saw his friend rushing towards him and told him that there was a boy fighting with You Daquan in Yilu Tower. His friend was timid, so he rushed out to intercept him. Take him somewhere else." Miao Changfeng said: "But why do you suspect it is Shao Henian?" Lin Wushuang said: "That friend is timid and fearful, but he is also an expert in martial arts. As soon as the young man makes a move, he can see that it is the kung fu of tiger claws." Miao Changfeng nodded and said, "That's right, the tiger claw grabbing hand is the Shao family's unique skill, and it was a young man who fought with You Daquan that day, so it's no wonder you have such suspicions. But as far as I know, this school Although kung fu is the unique skill of the Shao family, it is not unique to the Shao family. The Zhushengan family in Zhuxian Town and the Ma family of Fanzimen in Cangzhou can also make tiger claws masters. Of course, they are not as good as the Shao family. The number one master of this kung fu, In the martial arts, Shao Henian's father, Shao Shudu, should be promoted." Lin Wushuang said: "So we don't dare to say that it is Shao Henian. We can only say that he is the most likely. When you pass through Yucheng, please go and investigate the truth." Miao Changfeng said: "What was the result of the fight? Although that disciple of your sect didn't see it, he must have heard about it?" Lin Wushuang said: "Afterwards they inquired, and it was said that the boy had been captured by the Five Dragons Gang." Miao Changfeng frowned, and said: "Have you been arrested? I don't know You Daquan, but I do know a little about his personality. Of course he can't be regarded as a chivalrous person, but he is not a person who does all kinds of evil. And listen It is said that he is still quite cautious in his actions. He knows that his abilities are limited, and he has always dared not offend famous figures in the martial arts, unless he has something very difficult to get along with. If this young man is Shao Henian, he should be able to see the Shao family's inheritance Tiger Claw Grabber, why did he dare to capture him? Shao Henian, I know better, he is definitely not an arrogant and impetuous young man, and it is said that he would not fight with others indiscriminately. Do you know the reason why they fight?" Lin Wushuang said: "There were a lot of people drinking in Yimao Tower that day. That friend didn't pay attention at first, and I don't know why they suddenly started fighting? Later, I asked someone to inquire, but no one dared to tell. Although the Five Dragons were not The first-class big gang has a lot of power along the Yellow River."
