Chapter 10 Chapter 10 Passing the Sword

Linghu Chong was taken aback, turned around and saw an old man with white beard and green robe standing at the entrance of the cave, with a gloomy expression and a face like gold paper.Linghu Chong thought to himself: "Could this old man be the masked green robed man from that night? Where did he come from? Why is he standing behind me, I don't even feel the slightest bit?" His heart was filled with surprise, only hearing Tian Boguang's trembling voice Said: "You...you are Mr. Feng?" The old man sighed, and said: "It's rare that someone in the world knows Feng's name."

Linghu Chong thought in a flash: "There is another senior in this sect. I have never heard from Master or Mistress. If he pretended to be just following Tian Boguang's words, wouldn't it make the world laugh at me if I went up to worship? Besides, How could things be so coincidental? When Tian Boguang mentioned Feng Qingyang, there really was Feng Qingyang." The old man shook his head and sighed: "Linghu Chong, you boy, you are too ineffective! Let me teach you. First you use the move 'White Rainbow Piercing the Sun', then use 'Feng Lai Yi', and then use the move 'Golden Yan Heng' Kong', and then use the 'intercepting hand'..." He talked about thirty moves in one breath.

Linghu Chong had learned those thirty moves before, but the sword and the direction of his footsteps were not connected together anyway.The old man said: "Why are you hesitating? Well, thirty strokes can be completed in one go. With your current cultivation, it is indeed not easy. You should try it out first." His voice was low and his expression was bleak, which seemed to contain infinite sadness, but the tone of his tone There is a majesty in it.Linghu Chong thought to himself: "Let's try it according to the words, but it's okay." Even if the first move is "White Rainbow Piercing the Sun", the point of the sword is facing the sky, but the second move "You Feng Lai Yi" cannot be carried out, and he can't help being stunned.

The old man said: "Oh, idiot, idiot! No wonder you are Yue Buqun's disciple, you are stubborn and don't know how to adapt. The way of swordsmanship is as smooth as clouds and flowing water, you can do whatever you want. After you use that move, 'Baihong Guanri' ', the tip of the sword is upward, won't it be dragged down? Although there is no such posture in the sword move, don't you think it's ingenious and cooperate with it?" This statement immediately reminded Linghu Chong that when he stretched his long sword, he would automatically use "You Feng Lai Yi", and before his sword move got old, he had turned to "Golden Wild Goose Crossing the Sky".The long sword slid across the top of the head, with a hook and a pick, and changed into a "cutting hand" lightly and delicately. At the turning point, the clothes were seamless and my heart was very comfortable.Now, according to what the old man said, he used one move after another to withdraw the sword with the sound of "bells and drums", it was almost thirty moves, suddenly, he felt an indescribable joy.

The old man's expression showed no sign of approval, and he said: "That's right, it's a pity that the ax chisel marks are too heavy and too clumsy. However, it's certainly not possible to fight against a master, but I'm afraid it will be enough to deal with this kid in front of me. Go up and try Try it!" Although Linghu Chong still didn't believe that he was his Grand Master Uncle, but he was a master of martial arts, so there was no doubt about it. Immediately, he lowered his sword, bowed deeply, and said: "Thank you for your advice." Turning to Tian Boguang, he said: "Brother Tian please!"

Tian Boguang said: "I have seen you use these 30 moves. If I fight you again, why do you want to fight?" I have no time to accompany Brother Tian." Tian Boguang said loudly: "What is that saying? If you don't follow me down the mountain, will Tian's life be given to you for nothing?" Turning to the old man, he said: "Senior Feng, Tian Boguang is a young boy, and he is not worthy to challenge your old man. If you make a move, you will lose your dignity." The old man nodded, sighed, walked slowly to the boulder, and sat down. Tian Boguang was greatly relieved, and shouted: "Look at the knife!" He swung the knife and slashed at Linghu Chong.

Linghu Chong dodged sideways, stabbing back with his long sword, using the fourth stance that the old man just said, "hand-cutting style".As soon as he made a sword, he poured out a stream of swordsmanship, his swordsmanship was light and agile, some moves were mentioned by the old man, and some were beyond the thirty moves that the old man said.After he comprehended the essence of the eight characters "flowing clouds and flowing water, do whatever you want", his swordsmanship made great progress immediately, and he fought Tian Boguang for more than a hundred moves.Suddenly Tian Boguang yelled and raised his knife to strike straight. Seeing that it was difficult to dodge, Linghu Chong shook his hand and pointed the long sword at his chest.Tian Boguang slashed his sword back, and there was a bang, the swords intersected, he didn't wait for Linghu Chong to draw his sword, let go of the single sword, jumped up, and grabbed his throat with both hands.Linghu Chong was suffocated immediately, and the long sword was released from his hand.

Tian Boguang shouted: "If you don't follow me down the mountain, I will strangle you to death." He originally called Linghu Chong brothers and his words were very polite, but after this battle of more than a hundred moves, he became violent, and firmly strangled him by the throat. He actually called himself "Lao Tzu". Linghu Chong's face turned purple, and he shook his head.Tian Boguang gritted his teeth and said, "It doesn't matter if it's one hundred moves or two hundred moves. If I win, I want you to come down the mountain with me. I don't care about the fucking agreement of thirty moves." Linghu Chong wanted to laugh, but He strangled his throat with ten fingers, and couldn't laugh no matter what.

Suddenly, the old man said: "Stupid! Your finger is the sword. Does the move 'full of gold and jade' have to be performed with a sword?" Like lightning flashed in Linghu Chong's mind, he stabbed with five fingers of his right hand, it was a move of "full of gold and jade", the middle finger and index finger poked Tian Boguang's "Tanzhong acupoint" on his chest.Tian Boguang snorted, and fell to the ground tiredly, his fingers that were holding Linghu Chong's throat loosened immediately. Linghu Chong didn't expect that with such a casual poke, Tian Boguang, the famous "Lone Traveler in Thousand Miles", fell to the ground easily.He stretched out his hand to touch his throat, which was so painfully strangled by Tian Boguang, and saw that the sharp knife master was curled up on the ground, twitching slightly, his eyes rolled white, and he had passed out. The old man admired him to the extreme, rushed to him, prostrated himself on the ground, and shouted: "Uncle Grand Master, please forgive my disciple and grandson for being rude before." He kowtowed repeatedly.

The old man smiled faintly, and said: "Are you no longer suspicious that I am bluffing and deceiving?" Linghu Chong kowtowed and said, "Don't dare! The disciple and grandson are fortunate to be able to meet our senior, Uncle Feng Tai. It is a great joy." The old man said Feng Qingyang: "Get up." Linghu Chong kowtowed respectfully three more times before standing up, seeing the old man's sickly face and haggard look, he said: "Uncle Grand Master, are you hungry? Disciple and grandson There is some dry food hidden in the cave." As he said that, he wanted to go to get it.Feng Qingyang shook his head and said: "No need!" Looking at the sun with squinted eyes, he said softly: "The sun is so warm, but it's been a long time since I've been in the sun." Linghu Chong was very surprised, but he didn't dare to ask.

Feng Qingyang glanced at Tian Boguang who was hiding in the ground, and said: "He poked the Tanzhong acupoint for you. With his skill, he will wake up in an hour, and he will still be with you at that time. If he was defeated, he had no choice but to go down the mountain obediently. After you subdue him, you must force him to swear a poisonous oath that you must not reveal a single word about me." Linghu Chong said: "The apprentice won the victory just by surprise. , luckily succeeded, after all, he is no match for him in terms of swordsmanship, to subdue him...to subdue him..." Feng Qingyang shook his head and said: "You are Yue Buqun's disciple, I didn't want to teach you martial arts. But back then... I made a solemn oath that I would never fight anyone seriously again in my lifetime. That night Try your swordsmanship, but let you know, if the Huashan School's "Nineteen Swords of the Jade Girl" is correct, how can someone flick the long sword in his hand? If I don't give you my hand, it will be difficult to force this Tian Boguang to swear to keep it secret, you Come with me." He walked into the cave, drilled through the hole, and came to the back cave.Linghu Chong followed in. Feng Qingyang pointed to the stone wall and said: "You have seen and memorized most of the pictures of the Huashan School's swordsmanship on the wall, but they are only used by generals, but they are not the same thing at all. Sigh!" He shook his head while speaking.Linghu Chong pondered: "I'm looking at the picture here, so Grand Master has already seen it in his eyes. Thinking about it, I was so engrossed in seeing it every time that I didn't realize that there were other people in the cave at all. If...if Grand Master is the enemy... Hehe, if he is an enemy, even if I find out, how can I escape with my life?" Feng Qingyang continued: "That kid Yue Buqun really doesn't make any sense. You are a great piece of material, but you have been taught to become a fool." Linghu Chong heard that he had insulted his teacher, and his heart was broken. Annoyed, he immediately said proudly: "Uncle Grand Master, I don't want you to teach me anymore. I will go out and force Tian Boguang to swear not to reveal anything about Grand Master Uncle." Feng Qingyang was startled, he understood the reason, and said calmly: "What if he refuses? Are you going to kill him?" Linghu Chong hesitated to answer, thinking that Tian Boguang had won several victories and never killed himself, how could he do it? Kill him as soon as he gains the upper hand?Feng Qingyang said: "You blame me for calling your master, well, I will not mention him in the future, he calls me Shishu, I call him 'boy', is it okay?" If you scold my teacher, your disciples should respectfully listen to your teachings." Feng Qingyang smiled slightly, and said, "I begged you to learn the art." Linghu Chong bowed and said, "My disciples dare not, please forgive me." Feng Qingyang pointed to the graphics of the Huashan school's swordsmanship on the stone wall, and said: "These moves are indeed the unique moves of our school's swordsmanship, and most of them have been lost. Even Yue... Yue... hehe... not even your master. I know. It’s just that although the tricks are clever, if you use each trick separately, you will eventually be able to break it for others..." Hearing this, Linghu Chong's heart moved, and he faintly thought of the ultimate principle of swordsmanship, and his face could not help showing ecstasy.Feng Qingyang said: "What do you understand? Tell me." Linghu Chong said: "Did Grand Master Uncle say that if all the moves are combined together, the enemy will be unable to break?" Feng Qingyang nodded, very happy, and said: "I said that you have good aptitude, and you really have a very high level of understanding. These elders of the Demon Sect..." While speaking, he pointed to the human figure wielding a stick on the stone wall.Linghu Chong said: "This is the elder of the Demon Sect?" Feng Qingyang said: "Don't you know? These ten skeletons are the ten elders of the Demon Sect." He pointed to a skeleton on the ground.Linghu Chong wondered: "Why are all the ten elders of the Demon Sect dead here?" Feng Qingyang said: "In another hour, Tian Boguang will wake up, you ask all these old things, do you still have time to learn martial arts?" Linghu Chong said: "Yes, yes, Grand Master Uncle please advise." Feng Qingyang sighed, and said: "These elders of the Devil's Sect are indeed very intelligent and talented people, and they have completely defeated the brilliant moves of the Wuyue Sword Sect. It's just that they don't know that the most powerful man in the world Tricks are not in martial arts, but intrigues, tricks, and traps. If you fall into a trap cleverly arranged by others, with how clever your martial arts tricks are, it will be completely useless..." He raised his head and looked Dazed, apparently recalling countless past events. Linghu Chong saw that what he said was bitter, and his expression was filled with great indignation, so he didn't dare to speak up, thinking: "Could it be that my Five Mountains Sword Sect is really 'unbeaten in martial arts, plotting to harm people'? People in the middle class seem to be quite disapproving of these despicable methods. However, it seems that it is not wrong to use some conspiracy and tricks against the figures of the Demon Cult." Feng Qingyang said again: "In terms of martial arts alone, these elders of the Demon Cult can't say they have really seen the door of superior martial arts. They don't understand that moves are dead, but the person who makes them is alive. Dead moves are broken. No matter how good the tricks are, if you encounter live tricks, you will inevitably be bound and you will have to be slaughtered. You must firmly remember the word "living". If you don't stick to it, you will practice tens of millions of unique moves, and when you meet a real master, you will still be smashed by others in the end." Linghu Chong was overjoyed, he was naturally flamboyant and unrestrained, Feng Qingyang's words really spoke to his heart, and he said repeatedly: "Yes, yes! You have to learn and work hard." Feng Qingyang said: "There are countless idiots in the Wuyue Sword Sect, thinking that if they master the sword moves handed down by their master, they will naturally become masters, hum, they have read three hundred Tang poems by heart, even if they don't know how to compose poems, they will become masters." Yin! After familiarizing with other people's poems, it's okay to write a few doggerel poems, but if you can't express yourself, can you become a great poet?" Naturally, even Yue Buqun was scolded by him, but Linghu Chong couldn't help it. On the one hand, he thought this was very reasonable, on the other hand, he didn't directly mention Yue Buqun's name, so he didn't add any defense. Feng Qingyang said: "Learning and making active is only the first step. If you have no moves, you will really step into the realm of a master. You said 'every move is integrated, the enemy will be unable to break', This sentence is only half correct. It's not 'unclear', but no moves at all. No matter how perfect your sword moves are, as long as there are traces to be found, the enemy will have a gap to take advantage of. But if you don't move at all Without moves, how can the enemy break your moves?" Linghu Chong's heart was beating wildly, his palms were hot, and he murmured: "There is no move at all, how can we break it? There is no move at all, how can we break it?" Suddenly, a man he had never seen in his life, even dreamed of, appeared in front of him. Unexpected new world. Feng Qingyang said: "If you want to cut meat, you must have meat to cut; if you want to chop firewood, you must have firewood to cut; if the enemy wants to break your sword move, you must have sword move for others to break. One who has never learned An ordinary person who has experienced martial arts, takes the sword and swings it wildly. No matter how well you know, you can't guess where he will stab the next sword, and where he will cut. Even a person with the best swordsmanship can't beat his moves. Just because there are no moves, the word "breaking moves" is out of the question. It's just that people who have never learned martial arts, even though they have no moves, can easily knock them down. The real superior swordsmanship is to be able to control people. It must not be controlled by others." He picked up a dead man's leg bone from the ground, pointed one end at Linghu Chong, and said, "How do you break my trick?" Linghu Chong didn't know what kind of move he was doing, so he was stunned and said: "This is not a move, so it can't be deciphered." Feng Qingyang smiled slightly, and said: "That's it. People who learn martial arts use weapons, fists and feet, always There are moves, you only need to know how to break them, and you can defeat the enemy with one move." Linghu Chong said: "What if the enemy doesn't have any moves?" Feng Qingyang said: "Then he is also a top-notch master, it doesn't matter how well the two fight, maybe you are taller, or maybe he is taller "Sighed, and said: "In today's world, it is very difficult to find such masters. As long as you are lucky enough to meet one or two, that is your life's luck. In my life, I have only met three. who are you?" Linghu Chong asked, "Which three are they?" Feng Qingyang stared at him for a moment, smiled slightly, and said: "Among Yue Buqun's disciples, there is such a kid who meddles in his own business and refuses to concentrate on learning swordsmanship, how wonderful!" Linghu Chong blushed, He hurriedly bowed and said, "I know I'm wrong." Feng Qingyang smiled and said, "It's not wrong, it's not wrong! You have a lively mind and are very suitable for my taste. It's just that time is running out now. Thirty or forty strokes are integrated, imagine how to do it in one go, and then forget it all, forget it completely, don't keep a single stroke in your heart. Later, I will fight Tian Boguang with Huashan swordsmanship that has no tricks. " Surprised and delighted, Linghu Chong replied, "Yes!" He focused on the figures on the stone wall. In the past few months, he has already memorized the sword skills of his school on the stone wall very well, so he doesn't need to spend time learning the moves now, he only needs to try to string together many disconnected sword moves.Feng Qingyang said: "Everything must go with the flow. Do as much as you have to do, stop as long as you have to stop, if it doesn't fit together, it's fine. In short, don't force yourself in the slightest." Linghu Chong agreed, just go with nature Whether it is easy or tight, clever or clumsy, the thirty or forty tricks of the Huashan School are combined in a short time, but if they are to be integrated, there is no trace of the beginning, end, and turning point to be found. , but it is very difficult.He picked up the long sword and slashed left and right, without thinking about the sword move in the stone wall pattern at all, it doesn't matter whether it looks like it or not, he just swings it at will, sometimes he can't help being secretly proud when he makes it in a smooth place. He has practiced swordsmanship with a teacher for more than ten years, and every time he practiced, he always wholeheartedly wakes up his spirits, and dare not neglect in the slightest.Yue Buqun's lessons were extremely strict. All the disciples practiced boxing and swords. As long as the movements of their hands and feet were slightly out of the standard, he would correct them immediately. Nod in approval.Linghu Chong is the big disciple who opened the mountain gate, and he was born to be strong and aggressive. In order to win the approval of his master and his wife, he was even more strict in self-discipline when practicing moves.Unexpectedly, Feng Qingyang taught the sword exactly the opposite, he was asked to be as casual as possible, which is exactly what he likes, when he uses the sword, his heart is so happy that it is unspeakable, and he feels infinitely more delicious than drinking decades of fine wine. Just when he was intoxicated, he suddenly heard Tian Boguang shouting outside: "Brother Linghu, please come out, let's compete again." Linghu Chong was startled, put away his sword and stood up, and said to Feng Qingyang: "Uncle Grand Master, can my slashing and slashing swordsmanship be able to stop his sharp knife?" Feng Qingyang shook his head and said, "I can't stop it, It's still far away!" Linghu Chong said in shock: "Can't you stop it?" Feng Qingyang said: "If you want to stop it, of course you can't stop it, but why do you need to stop it?" When Linghu Chong heard this, he realized immediately and was overjoyed: "That's right, he didn't dare to kill me because he begged me to come down the mountain. No matter what sword moves he uses, I don't care, I can just attack on my own." Immediately he went out of the cave with his sword. I saw Tian Boguang standing with his sword horizontally, and shouted: "Brother Linghu, after you got the trick from Senior Feng, you really made great progress in your swordsmanship, but I gave you the tip just now, it was a momentary negligence, Tian is not convinced, let's compare again " Linghu Chong said: "Okay!" The straight sword stabbed obliquely, the sword body was wobbly, without any strength. Tian Boguang was amazed, and said, "What kind of sword move are you doing?" Seeing Linghu Chong's long sword stabbing him, he was about to swing his sword to block, but he saw Linghu Chong's right hand suddenly retracted, and stabbed the sword casually into the air, followed by the sword The handle retracted quickly, as if it was about to hit his own chest, followed by his wrist trembling immediately, and the impact hit the empty space on the right.Tian Boguang was even more surprised, and tried to hack at him lightly.Linghu Chong didn't evade, he raised the tip of his sword and stabbed obliquely at the opponent's lower abdomen.Tian Boguang shouted: "Weird!" He returned the knife and countered. The two of them did several tricks, and Linghu Chong used dozens of Huashan sword techniques on the stone wall, only attacking but not defending, just like practicing swords by himself.Tian Boguang was driven into a hurry by him, and shouted: "If you don't block my knife and cut off your arm, don't blame me!" Linghu Chong laughed and said, "It's not that easy." Slashed from a strange direction.Relying on his sharp eyesight and quick hands, Tian Boguang blocked them one by one, and was about to counterattack when Linghu Chong suddenly threw his long sword up into the sky.Tian Boguang raised his head to look at the sword, and with a bang, he was punched hard on the nose, and his nose bleeds profusely. When Tian Boguang was startled, Linghu Chong used his hand as a sword and stabbed out quickly, hitting his Tanzhong acupoint again.Tian Boguang's body slowly collapsed, with a look of surprise and anger on his face. Linghu Chong turned around, Feng Qingyang beckoned him to go into the cave, and said: "You have practiced sword for another hour and a half, this time he was seriously injured, and he didn't wake up as fast as the first time. It's just that next time If you fight again, maybe he will go all out, and he may not be willing to let it go, you have to be careful. You go to practice the Hengshan School's swordsmanship." After Linghu Chong got Feng Qingyang's instructions, there are moves in the swordsmanship as if there is no move, the meaning of the move is preserved, but the form of the move is not. can be found.After Tian Boguang woke up, he won seventy or eighty moves in the fight, and let him knock him down again. Seeing that it was getting late, Lu Dayou brought food up the cliff, Linghu Chong put Tian Boguang who had been knocked down behind the rock, and Feng Qingyang came out of the back cave.Linghu Chong said: "I've had a good appetite for the past few days. The Sixth Junior Brother will bring some more food tomorrow." The clothes on his upper body were soaked with sweat, he only said that he was practicing swordsmanship hard, and said: "Okay, tomorrow I will bring a big basket of rice." After Lu Dayou got off the cliff, Linghu Chong unlocked Tian Boguang's acupuncture point and invited him to eat with Feng Qingyang and himself.Feng Qingyang only ate half a bowl of rice and was full.Tian Boguang was so indignant that he couldn't eat, and he was swearing at people while picking up the rice. Suddenly, his left hand was too hard, and with a bang, he squeezed a tile bowl into more than ten pieces, and the rice grains in the bowl fell all over his body. Linghu Chong laughed loudly, and said, "Brother Tian, ​​why should you have trouble with a job?" Tian Boguang said angrily: "Damn it, I have trouble with you. It's just because I don't want to kill you. When we compete in martial arts, you kid can only attack but not defend. That's how you take advantage. Say it yourself, is this fair? What if I won’t let you, I’ll cut off your head within thirty strokes. Hmph! Hmph! Damn that little nun… little nun…” He obviously wanted to scold that little nun Yilin, but for some reason , the words came to the point of his mouth, he stopped cursing, stood up, drew his knife in his hand, and shouted: "Linghu Chong, fight again if you have the guts." Linghu Chong said: "Okay!" He straightened his sword and went forward. Linghu Chong used the old trick again, he did not dismantle Tian Boguang's sharp knife, but stabbed each other with clever moves.Unexpectedly, Tian Boguang's attack was very ruthless this time. After more than twenty moves, he swiped twice. One cut hit Linghu Chong's thigh, and the other cut a gash on his left arm.Linghu Chong was startled and in pain, his sword skills were scattered, and after a few moves, he was kicked down by Tian Boguang. Tian Boguang put the blade on his throat, and shouted: "Do you still want to hit him? I will cut you a few times after one hit. Even if you don't kill you, you will have to lose all your limbs and bleed dry." Fight! Even if Linghu Chong can't fight you, can it be that my uncle Feng just ignores you and lets you run amok?" Tian Boguang said: "He is a senior, he won't fight with me." He put away his single sword, thinking that after all He was also very worried, afraid that Linghu Chong would be injured, Feng Qingyang shot out in a rage, it seemed that although this man was very old, he was not bad at all, his expression was restrained, his eyes were full of brilliance, it was obvious that his inner strength was really good, Not to mention the high level of swordsmanship, he doesn't have to wield a sword to kill people, just drive himself down Mount Hua, that would be terrible. Linghu Chong tore off his skirt, wrapped up the two wounds, walked into the cave, shook his head and smiled wryly, and said, "Uncle Grand Master, this guy changed his strategy and really killed him! If he cuts his right arm, he can't use the sword, It will be difficult to defeat him." Feng Qingyang said: "Fortunately, it's getting late, you invite him to fight again tomorrow morning. Don't sleep tonight, let's spend a whole night, I will teach you three moves of swordsmanship. "Linghu Chong said: "Three moves?" He thought to himself that there are only three moves of swordsmanship, so why spend one night teaching them. Feng Qingyang said: "I see that you are quite smart. I don't know if you are really smart or fake smart. If you are really smart, then this night, you may be able to learn these three moves of swordsmanship. If your aptitude is not good , Wuxin is normal, then...then...you don't have to fight him again tomorrow morning, admit defeat yourself, and go down the mountain with him obediently!" Hearing what Grand Master Uncle said, Linghu Chong expected that these three sword moves were unusual and must be very difficult to learn, so he couldn't help arousing his desire to be strong and competitive, and said boldly: "Grand Master Uncle, if your disciples can't learn these three moves in one night, I would rather kill him with a knife than surrender and follow him down the mountain." Feng Qingyang smiled and said: "That's also very good." He raised his head, pondered for a while, and said: "It is difficult for others to learn three tricks in one night. The second trick is not needed for now, we only need to learn the first one. Move and the third move. But... but... many changes in the third move come from the second move, well, let's omit all the relevant changes and see if it works." Talking to himself, He pondered for a while, but shook his head again. Seeing that he was so worried, Linghu Chong couldn't help but feel itchy. The more difficult a martial art is to learn, the stronger its natural power will be. Feng Qingyang murmured: "If you forget the 360 ​​changes in the first move, If there is a change, the third trick will be wrong, which is a bit embarrassing." Linghu Chong heard that there were 360 ​​changes in the first move alone, so he couldn't help but be surprised, only to see Feng Qingyang bent his fingers and counted: "Guimei tends to be Wuwang, Wuwang tends to be like me, and me like me to become bigger." Yes. A turns into C, C turns into Geng, and Geng turns into Kui. The turn of Zi Chou, the turn of Chenji, the turn of Wuwei. Wind and thunder are one change, mountains and lakes are another change, water and fire are another change. Heaven and earth are excited by each other, and vibrations are exchanged. The more you count, the more you will become nine..." The more you count, the more worried you become, and you sigh: "Chong'er, it took me three months to learn this trick back then. , I want you to learn two tricks in one night, that's a joke, you think: 'Guimei tends to be innocent...'" At this point, he stopped talking, obviously out of his mind, and after a while, He asked, "What did I just say?" Linghu Chong said: "Uncle Grand Master said just now that Guimei tends to Wuwang, Wuwang tends to like people, like people tend to Dayou." Feng Qing raised his eyebrows and said, "You have a good memory. How did you go?" Linghu Chong said. : "Uncle Grand Master said: 'A turns to C, C turns to Geng, Geng turns to Kui...'" I recited all the way, and even memorized a little bit, and I can't remember the rest. Feng Qingyang was amazed, and asked: "Have you ever learned the formula of Dugu Nine Swords?" Linghu Chong said: "My disciples have never learned it, so I don't know it is called 'Dugu Nine Swords'." Feng Qingyang asked: "You haven't learned it before, how can you recite it?" Linghu Chong said, "I heard Grand Master Uncle read it like this just now." Feng Qingyang was full of joy, slapped his thigh, and said: "There is a way. Although you can't learn everything overnight, you can memorize it by heart. You don't need to learn the first move, and you can only learn a small part of the third move. You Remember, Guimei tends to be Wuwang, Wuwang likes others, colleagues like Dayou..." The reading went on all the way, after reading more than 300 words, he said: "Try memorizing it again." Linghu Chong had long been concentrating on it. Memory, reciting according to the words at the moment, only a dozen or so words were wrong.Feng Qingyang corrected it, Linghu Chong recited it the second time, only made seven mistakes, and corrected it the third time. Feng Qingyang was very happy, and said: "Very good, very good!" Another three hundred words of formula were passed on, and after Linghu Chong memorized them by heart, he passed on another three hundred words.The "Nine Swords of Lonely" has more than 3,000 words in total, and the content is not coherent. Although Linghu Chong has a good memory, he can't help remembering the latter and forgetting the former. It took more than an hour. Ching Yang mentioned it again and again, and only then did he remember that the word was correct.Feng Qingyang asked him to recite it three times from the beginning to the end, and seeing that he had memorized it all, he said: "This general formula is the fundamental key of Dugu Nine Swords. Although you have memorized it now, it's just for quick success, and it's all about hard work." Remember, if you don't understand the reason, it will be easy to forget in the future. From today on, you have to recite it day and night." Linghu Chong replied: "Yes!" Feng Qingyang said: "The first move of Nine Swords, the 'General Formula', has various changes, and it is used to embody this general formula. I am not busy learning it right now. The second move is the 'Broken Sword Style', which is used to crack the Swordsmanship of all sects and sects in the world is not too busy to learn now. The third move "Broken Sword Style" is used to break the single-sword, double-sword, lancet, ghost-headed sword, machete, and horse-cut sword. Tian Boguang It is the quick sword technique of the single sword, and tonight I will only learn this part of his sword technique." Linghu Chong heard that the second move of Dugu Nine Swords can defeat all kinds of swordsmanship in the world, and the third move can break all kinds of sword techniques. He was pleasantly surprised and said: "These nine swords are so wonderful, disciples and grandchildren have never heard of them before." Excited. , and his voice trembled. Feng Qingyang said: "Your master has never seen the sword technique of Dugu Nine Swords before, but he has heard the name of this sword technique. It's just that he refuses to mention it to you." Linghu Chong was very surprised and asked: " But why?" Feng Qingyang didn't answer his question, and said: "The third move of 'Broken Saber Style' pays attention to using lightness to resist heavy, and using speed to control slowness. Tian Boguang's sharp sword is very fast, but you You have to be faster than him. With a young man like you, it is okay to compete with him, but there is no certainty of winning or losing. As for a bad old man like me, I have to be faster than him. The only way It is to move ahead of him. You expected what move he was going to make, but you were ahead of him. Before the enemy raised his hand, your long sword was already pointed at his vital point, and he was not as fast as you." Linghu Chong nodded repeatedly, and said: "Yes, yes! I think this is teaching people how to anticipate the enemy's opportunity." Feng Qingyang clapped his hands and praised: "Yes, yes! A child can be taught. The four words 'predict the enemy's opportunity first' are the essence of this sword technique. Anyone who makes a move must have certain signs. He If the next knife is going to cut at your left arm, his eyes will definitely look at your left arm, and if his single sword is at the lower right, he will naturally raise the knife, draw a semicircle, and cut diagonally from top to bottom." So In this third sword, the various changes of the Breaking Kuai Dao are analyzed in detail one by one.Linghu Chong could only feel relaxed and happy when he heard it, like a country boy suddenly placed in the inner courtyard of the palace, what he saw and what he heard, everything was novel and gorgeous. This third move is extremely complex, Linghu Chong can only comprehend two or three out of ten parts in a short period of time, and he will memorize the rest by heart.One was teaching vigorously, the other was studying hard, but he didn't know the time had passed. He suddenly heard Tian Boguang yelling outside the cave: "Brother Linghu, it's light, are you awake?" Linghu Chong was stunned, and said in a low voice: "Ah, it's dawn." Feng Qingyang sighed: "It's a pity that the time is too short, but you are learning so fast, far beyond my expectations. Now go out and fight with him." Bar!" Linghu Chong said: "Yes." He closed his eyes, and silently thought about what he had learned that night, then suddenly opened his eyes, and said: "Uncle Grand Master, there is still one thing that is unclear about my disciples, why are there such changes? All the tricks, only attacking but not defending?" Feng Qingyang said: "Dugu Nine Swords, there is no retreat! Every move is an attack. If you attack the enemy, you have to defend it. Of course you don't have to defend yourself. The senior Dugu Qiubai who created this set of swordsmanship is called 'Qiubai' ’, the old man wants to be defeated all his life, but he can’t get it. With this sword technique, he is invincible in the world, so why bother to defend it? If someone attacks him, the old man will return to the sword and defend himself, he will be really elated and overjoyed.” Linghu Chong murmured: "Dugu seeks defeat, Dugu seeks defeat." Imagine that this senior was invincible in the world with his sword in the rivers and lakes. He couldn't even find an opponent to force him to defend a move. It's really amazing. wear. Only Tian Boguang shouted again: "Come out, let me cut you twice." Linghu Chong shouted: "I'll come!" Feng Qingyang frowned and said: "Going out to fight with him now, there is one thing that is very dangerous. If he comes up and cuts your right arm or right wrist with a single knife, then you have to let him slaughter you, and you have no power to resist. This matter It really worries me." Linghu Chong was full of spirits, and said proudly: "The disciples will do their best! No matter what, we must not let down the teachings of Grand Master Uncle this night." Lifting the sword out of the hole, he immediately pretended to be listless, yawned, and stretched out Lazy, rubbed his eyes, and said: "Brother Tian woke up so early, didn't you sleep well last night?" But he was thinking in his heart: "I just need to get through this difficulty in front of me and study for a few more hours, then I will be able to sleep well." Never be afraid of him again." Tian Boguang single-handedly said, "Brother Linghu, I really don't intend to hurt you, but you are too stubborn, and you won't follow me down the mountain no matter what you say. This kind of fighting will force me to chop you ten times and twenty times. Wouldn't I feel sorry for you for getting you covered in cuts and bruises?" Linghu Chong thought about it, and said, "You don't need to chop off my right arm with one knife, or you will hurt my right hand. At that time, if you want to kill or capture, don’t you just do whatever you want?" Tian Boguang shook his head and said, "I just want you to admit defeat, why hurt your right arm and right arm?" Linghu Chong was overjoyed, but his face was full of joy. Pretending to be deeply worried, he said, "I'm afraid that even though you say so, you lose in a hurry, and in the end you will use all kinds of barbaric poisonous moves." Tian Boguang said: "You don't need to provoke me with words. Tian Boguang once Come to have no grudges against you, second to respect you as a man with backbone, and third to really hurt you seriously, I'm afraid others will embarrass me. Make a move!" Linghu Chong said: "Okay! Brother Tian, ​​please." Tian Boguang waved his saber in vain, and followed him with a second slash.Linghu Chong was about to use the variation of the third sword in "Nine Swords of Dugu" to break it, but Tian Boguang's saber technique was too fast, just as he was about to draw the sword, the opponent's saber technique had changed, and finally he was a step slower.Anxious in his heart, he shouted secretly: "Oops, Oops! The newly learned swordsmanship is completely useless, Tai Shishu must be calling me a fool." After a few moves, sweat dripped from his forehead. Unexpectedly, from Tian Boguang's eyes, he saw that his swordsmanship is extremely fierce, every move is the nemesis of his own swordsmanship, and he was quite surprised, thinking: "These few swordsmanships of his are clearly capable of killing me. I was killed, but why did I take a step slower on purpose? Yes, he was merciful and wanted me to retreat. But although I 'know the difficulty', I can't 'retreat' because of the hardship, so I have to be tough to the end." In his heart Thinking about it this way, when he slashed out with a single sword, he didn't dare to use enough strength.The two were afraid of each other, and both carefully dismantled it. After fighting for a while, Tian Boguang's saber technique became faster and faster, and Linghu Chong's variation of using Dugu's third sword gradually became proficient, the sword shone brightly, and the fight became faster and faster.Suddenly Tian Boguang yelled, his right foot flew up and kicked Linghu Chong's lower abdomen.Linghu Chong fell backwards, and his thoughts flashed: "I only need one more day and night, and tomorrow I will definitely be able to restrain him." Immediately he dropped the sword, closed his eyes tightly, held his breath, and pretended to faint shape. Tian Boguang was shocked when he saw him faint, but he knew that he was cunning and wise, so he didn't dare to lean over to see him, for fear that he would attack violently and seek victory in defeat. ：“令狐兄，怎么了？”叫了几声，才见令狐冲悠悠醒转，气息微弱，颤声道：“咱们……咱们再打过。”支撑着要站起身来，左腿一软，又摔倒在地。田伯光道：“你是不行的了，不如休息一日，明儿随我下山去吧。” 令狐冲不置可否，伸手撑地，意欲站起，口中不住喘气。 田伯光更无怀疑，踏上一步，抓住他右臂，扶了他起来，但踏上这一步时若有意，若无意地踏住了令狐冲落在地下的长剑，右手执刀护身，左手又正抓在令狐冲右臂的穴道之上，叫他没法行使诡计。令狐冲全身重量都挂在他的左手之上，显得全然虚弱无力，口中却兀自怒骂：“谁要你讨好？他奶奶的。”一跛一拐，回入洞中。 风清扬微笑道：“你用这法子取得了一日一夜，竟不费半点力气，只不过有点儿卑鄙无耻。”令狐冲笑道：“对付卑鄙无耻之徒，说不得，只好用点卑鄙无耻的手段。”风清扬正色道：“要是对付正人君子呢？”令狐冲一怔，道：“正人君子？”一时答不出话来。 风清扬双目炯炯，瞪视着令狐冲，森然问道：“要是对付正人君子，那便怎样？”令狐冲道：“就算他真是正人君子，倘若想要杀我，我也不能甘心就戮，到了不得已的时候，卑鄙无耻的手段，也只好用上这么一点半点了。”风清扬大喜，朗声道：“好，好！你说这话，便不是假冒为善的伪君子。大丈夫行事，爱怎样便怎样，行云流水，任意所之，什么武林规矩，门派教条，全都是放他妈的狗臭屁！” 令狐冲微微一笑，风清扬这几句话当真说到了他心坎中去，听来说不出的痛快，可是平素师父谆谆叮嘱，宁可性命不要，也决计不可违犯门规，不守武林规矩，以致败了华山派清誉，太师叔这番话是不能公然附和的；何况“假冒为善的伪君子”云云，似乎是在讥刺他师父那“君子剑”的外号，当下只微微一笑，并不接口。 风清扬伸出干枯的手指抚摸令狐冲头发，微笑道：“岳不群门下，居然有你这等人才，这小子眼光是有的，倒也不是全无可取。”他所说的“这小子”，自然是指岳不群了。 他拍拍令狐冲的肩膀，说道：“小娃子很合我心意，来来来，咱们把独孤大侠的第一剑和第三剑再练上一些。”当下又将独孤氏的第一剑择要讲述，待令狐冲领悟后，再将第三剑中的有关变化，连讲带比，细加指点。后洞中所遗长剑甚多，两人都以华山派的长剑比划演试。令狐冲用心记忆，每逢不明，便即询问。这一日时候充裕，学剑时不如前晚之迫促，一剑一式均能阐演周详。晚饭之后，令狐冲睡了两个时辰，又再学招。 次日清晨，田伯光只道他早一日受伤不轻，竟然并不出声索战。令狐冲乐得在后洞继续学剑，到得午末未初，独孤式第三剑的种种变化已尽数学全。风清扬道：“今日倘若仍然打他不过，也不要紧。再学一日一晚，无论如何，明日必胜。”
令狐冲应了，倒提本派前辈所遗下的一柄长剑，缓步走出洞来，见田伯光在崖边眺望，假作惊异之色，说道：“咦，田兄，怎么你还不走？”田伯光道：“在下恭候大驾。昨日得罪，今日好得多了吧？”令狐冲道：“也不见得好，腿上给田兄所砍的这一刀，痛得甚是厉害。”田伯光笑道：“当日在衡阳相斗，令狐兄伤势可比今日重得多了，却也不曾出过半句示弱之言。我深知你诡计多端，你这般装腔作势，故意示弱，想攻我一个出其不意，在下可不会上当。” 令狐冲笑道：“你这当已经上了，此刻就算醒觉，也来不及啦！田兄，看招！”剑随声出，直刺其胸。田伯光举刀急挡，却挡了个空。令狐冲第二剑又已刺了过来。田伯光赞道：“好快！”横刀封架。令狐冲第三剑、第四剑又已刺出，口中说道：“还有快的。”第五剑、第六剑跟着刺出，攻势既发，竟一剑连着一剑，一剑快似一剑，浑成一体，连绵不绝，当真学到了这独孤剑法的精要，“独孤九剑，有进无退”，每一剑全是攻招。 十余剑一过，田伯光胆战心惊，不知如何招架才是，令狐冲刺一剑，他便退一步，刺得十余剑，他已退到了崖边。令狐冲攻势丝毫不缓，刷刷刷刷，连刺四剑，全是指向他要害之处。田伯光奋力挡开了两剑，第三剑无论如何挡不开了，左足后退，却踏了个空。他知道身后是万丈深谷，这一跌下去势必粉身碎骨，便在这千钧一发之际，猛力一刀砍向地下，借势稳住身子。令狐冲的第四剑已指在他咽喉之上。田伯光脸色苍白，令狐冲也一言不发，剑尖始终不离他咽喉。过了良久，田伯光怒道：“要杀便杀，婆婆妈妈作甚？” 令狐冲右手一缩，向后纵开数步，道：“田兄一时疏忽，给小弟占了机先，不足为凭，咱们再打过。”田伯光哼了一声，舞动单刀，犹似狂风骤雨般攻将过来，叫道：“这次由我先攻，可不能让你占便宜了。” 令狐冲眼见他钢刀猛劈而至，长剑斜挑，径刺他小腹，自己上身一侧，已避开了他的刀锋。田伯光见他这一剑来得峻急，疾回单刀，往他剑上砸去，自恃力大，只须刀剑相交，准能将他长剑砸飞。令狐冲只一剑便抢到了先着，第二剑、第三剑源源不绝地发出，每一剑都是既狠且准，剑尖始终不离对手要害。田伯光挡架不及，只得又再倒退，十余招过去，竟重蹈覆辙，又退到了崖边。令狐冲长剑削下，逼得他提刀护住下盘，左手伸出，五指虚抓，正好抢到空隙，五指指尖离他胸口膻中穴已不到两寸，凝指不发。田伯光曾两次给他以手指点中膻中穴，这一次若再点中，身子委倒时不再是晕在地下，却要跌入深谷之中了，眼见他手指虚凝，显是有意容让。两人僵持半晌，令狐冲又再向后跃开。 田伯光坐在石上，闭目养了会神，突然间一声大吼，舞刀抢攻，一口钢刀直上直下，势道威猛之极。这一次他看准了方位，背心向山，心想纵然再给你逼得倒退，也是退入山洞之中，说什么也要决一死战。 令狐冲此刻于单刀刀招的种种变化，已尽数了然于胸，待他钢刀砍至，侧身向右，长剑便向他左肩削去。田伯光回刀相格，令狐冲的长剑早已收而刺他左腰。田伯光左臂与左腰相去不到一尺，但这一回刀，守中带攻，含有反击之意，力道甚劲，钢刀直荡了出去，急切间已不及收刀护腰，只得向右让了半步。令狐冲长剑起处，刺向他左颊。田伯光举刀挡架，剑尖忽地已指向左腿。田伯光无法再挡，再向右踏出一步。令狐冲一剑连着一剑，尽是攻他左侧，逼得他一步又一步地向右退让，十余步一跨，已将他逼向右边石崖的尽头。 该处一块大石壁阻住了退路，田伯光背心靠住岩石，舞起七八个刀花，再也不理令狐冲长剑如何来攻，耳中只听得嗤嗤声响，左手衣袖、左边衣衫、左足裤管已让长剑接连划中了六剑。这六剑均是只破衣衫，不伤皮肉，但田伯光心中雪亮，这六剑的每一剑都能叫自己断臂折足，破肚开膛，到这地步，霎时间只觉万念俱灰，哇的一声，张嘴喷出一大口鲜血。 令狐冲接连三次将他逼到了生死边缘，数日之前，此人武功还远胜于己，此刻竟是生杀之权操于己手，而且胜来轻易，大是行有余力，脸上不动声色，心下却已大喜若狂，待见他大败之后口喷鲜血，不由得歉疚之情油然而生，说道：“田兄，胜败乃是常事，何必如此？小弟也曾败在你手下多次！” 田伯光抛下单刀，摇头道：“风老前辈剑术如神，当世无人能敌，在下永远不是你的对手了。”令狐冲拾起单刀，双手递过，说道：“田兄说得不错，小弟侥幸得胜，全凭风太师叔的指点。风太师叔想请田兄答应一件事。”田伯光不接单刀，惨然道：“田某命悬你手，有什么好说的。”令狐冲道：“风太师叔隐居已久，不预世事，不喜俗人烦扰。田兄下山之后，请勿对人提起他老人家的事，在下感激不尽。” 田伯光冷冷地道：“你只须这么一剑刺将过来，杀人灭口，岂不干脆？”令狐冲退后两步，还剑入鞘，说道：“当日田兄武艺远胜于我之时，倘若一刀将我杀了，焉有今日之事？在下请田兄不向旁人泄露我风太师叔的行踪，乃是相求，不敢有丝毫胁迫之意。”田伯光道：“好，我答允了。”令狐冲深深一揖，道：“多谢田兄。” 田伯光道：“我奉命前来请你下山。这件事田某干不了，可是事情没完。讲打，我这一生是打你不过的了，却未必便此罢休。田某性命攸关，只好烂缠到底，你可别怪我不是好汉子的行径。令狐兄，再见了。”说着一抱拳，转身便行。 令狐冲想到他身中剧毒，此番下山，不久便毒发身亡，和他恶斗数日，不知不觉间已对他生出亲近之意，一时冲动，脱口便想叫将出来：“我随你下山便了。”但随即想起，自己受罚在崖上思过，不奉师命，决不能下崖一步，何况此人是个作恶多端的采花大盗，这一随他下山，变成了和他同流合污，将来身败名裂，祸患无穷，话到口边，终于缩住。
眼见他下崖而去，当即回入山洞，向风清扬拜伏在地，说道：“太师叔不但救了徒孙性命，又传了徒孙上乘剑术，此恩此德，永难报答。” 风清扬微笑道：“上乘剑术，上乘剑术，嘿嘿，还差得远呢。”他微笑之中，大有寂寞凄凉的味道。令狐冲道：“徒孙斗胆，求恳太师叔将独孤九剑的剑法尽数传授。”风清扬道：“你要学独孤九剑，将来不会懊悔么？” 令狐冲一怔，心想将来怎么会懊悔？一转念间，心道：“是了，这独孤九剑并非本门剑法，太师叔是说只怕师父知道之后会见责于我。但师父本来不禁我涉猎别派剑法，曾说他山之石，可以攻玉。再者，我从石壁的图形之中，已学了不少恒山、衡山、泰山、嵩山各派的剑法，连魔教十长老的武功也已学了不少。这独孤九剑如此神妙，实是学武之人梦寐以求的绝世妙技，我得蒙本门前辈指点传授，正是莫大的机缘。”当即拜道：“这是徒孙的毕生幸事，将来只有感激，决无懊悔。” 风清扬道：“好，我便传你。这独孤九剑我若不传你，过得几年，世上便永远没这套剑法了。”说时脸露微笑，显是深以为喜，说完之后，神色却转凄凉，沉思半晌，这才说道：“田伯光决不会就此甘心，但纵然再来，也必在十天半月之后。你武功已胜于他，阴谋诡计又胜于他，永远不必怕他了。咱们时候大为充裕，须得从头学起，扎好根基。”于是将独孤九剑第一剑的“总诀式”依着口诀次序，一句句地解释，再传以种种附于口诀的变化。 令狐冲先前硬记口诀，全然未能明白其中含意，这时得风清扬从容指点，每一刻都领悟到若干上乘武学的道理，每一刻都学到几项奇巧奥妙的变化，不由得欢喜赞叹，情难自已。 一老一少，便在这思过崖上传习独孤九剑的精妙剑法，自“总诀式”、“破剑式”、“破刀式”以至“破枪式”、“破鞭式”、“破索式”、“破掌式”、“破箭式”而学到了第九剑“破气式”。那“破枪式”包括破解长枪，大戟、蛇矛、齐眉棍、狼牙棒、白蜡杆、禅杖、方便铲种种长兵刃之法。“破鞭式”破的是钢鞭、铁锏、点穴橛、拐子、蛾眉刺、匕首、板斧、铁牌、八角槌、铁椎等等短兵刃。“破索式”破的是长索、软鞭、三节棍、链子枪、铁链、渔网、流星飞锤等等软兵刃。虽只一剑一式，却变化无穷，学到后来，前后式融会贯通，更是威力大增。 最后这三剑更加难学。“破掌式”破的是拳脚指掌上的功夫，对方既敢以空手来斗自己利剑，武功上自有极高造诣，手中有无兵器，相差已是极微。天下的拳法、腿法、指法、掌法繁复无比，这一剑“破掌式”，将长拳短打、擒拿点穴、鹰爪虎爪、铁沙神掌，诸般拳脚功夫尽数包括内在。“破箭式”这个“箭”字，则总罗诸般暗器，练这一剑时，须得先学听风辨器之术，不但要能以一柄长剑击开敌人发射来的种种暗器，还须借力反打，以敌人射来的暗器反射伤敌。 至于第九剑“破气式”，风清扬只传以口诀和修习之法，说道：“此式是为对付身具上乘内功的敌手而用，神而明之，存乎一心。独孤前辈当年挟此剑横行天下，欲求一败而不可得，那是他老人家已将这套剑法使得出神入化之故。同是一门华山剑法，同是一招，使出来时威力强弱大不相同，这独孤九剑自也一般。你纵然学得了剑法，倘若使出时剑法不纯，毕竟还是敌不了当世高手。此刻你已得到了门径，要想多胜少败，再苦练二十年，便可和天下英雄一较长短了。” 令狐冲越学得多，越觉这九剑之中变化无穷，不知要有多少时日，方能探索到其中全部奥秘，听太师叔要自己苦练二十年，丝毫不觉惊异，再拜受教，说道：“徒孙倘能在二十年之中，通解独孤老前辈当年创制这九剑的遗意，领会太师叔所授的心法，那是大喜过望了。” 风清扬道：“你倒也不可妄自菲薄。独孤大侠是绝顶聪明之人，学他的剑法，要旨在一个'悟'字，决不在死记硬记。等到通晓了这九剑的剑意，则无所施而不可，便是将全部变化尽数忘记，也不相干，临敌之际，更是忘记得越干净彻底，越不受原来剑法的拘束。你资质甚好，正是学练这套剑法的材料。何况当今之世，真有什么了不起的英雄人物，嘿嘿，只怕也未必。以后自己好好用功，我可要去了。” 令狐冲大吃一惊，颤声道：“太师叔，你……你上哪里去？”风清扬道：“我本在这后山居住，已住了数十年，日前一时心喜，出洞来授了你这套剑法，只是盼望独孤前辈的绝世武功不遭灭绝而已。怎么还不回去？”令狐冲喜道：“原来太师叔便在后山居住，那再好没有了。徒孙正可朝夕侍奉，以解太师叔的寂寞。” 风清扬厉声道：“从今以后，我再也不见华山派门中之人，连你也非例外。”见令狐冲神色惶恐，便语气转和，说道：“冲儿，我跟你既有缘，亦复投机。我暮年得有你这样一个佳子弟传我剑法，实是大畅老怀。你如心中有我这样一个太师叔，今后别来见我，以至令我为难。”令狐冲心中酸楚，道：“太师叔，那为什么？”风清扬摇摇头，说道：“你见到我的事，连对你师父也不可说起。”令狐冲含泪道：“是，自当遵从太师叔吩咐。” 风清扬轻轻抚摸他头，说道：“好孩子，好孩子！”转身下崖。令狐冲跟到崖边，眼望他瘦削的背影飘飘下崖，在后山隐没，不由得悲从中来，俯首坠泪。 令狐冲和风清扬相处十余日，虽听他所谈论指教的只是剑法，但于他议论风范，不但钦仰敬佩，更觉亲近之极，说不出的投机。风清扬是高了他两辈的太师叔，可是令狐冲内心，却隐隐然有一份平辈知己、相见恨晚的交谊，比之恩师岳不群，似乎反而亲切得多，心想：“太师叔年轻时，只怕性子和我差不多，也是一副天不怕、地不怕、任性行事的性格。他教我剑法时，总是说'人使剑法，不是剑法使人'，总说'人是活的，剑法是死的，活人不可给死剑法所拘'。这道理千真万确，却为何师父从来不说？” 他微一沉吟，便想：“这道理师父岂有不知？他知我性子太过随便，跟我一说了这道理，只怕我得其所哉，乱来一气，练剑时便不能循规蹈矩。等到我将来剑术有了小成，师父自会给我详加解释。师弟师妹们武功未够火候，自然更加不能明白这上乘剑理，跟他们说了也是白说。”又想：“太师叔的剑术自已出神入化，只可惜他老人家从来没显一下身手，令我大开眼界。比之师父，太师叔的剑法当然又高一筹了。” 回想风清扬脸带病容，寻思：“这十几天中，他有时轻声叹息，显然有什么重大的伤心事，不知为了什么？”叹了口气，提了长剑，出洞便练了起来。 练了一会，顺手使出一剑，竟是本门剑法的“有凤来仪”。他一呆之下，摇头苦笑，自言自语：“错了！”跟着又练，过不多时，顺手一剑，又是“有凤来仪”，不禁发恼，寻思：“我只因本门剑法练得纯熟，在心中已印得根深蒂固，使剑时稍一滑溜，便将练熟了的本门剑招夹了进去，却不是独孤剑法了。”突然间心念一闪，心道：“太师叔叫我使剑时须当心无所滞，顺其自然，那么使本门剑法，有何不可？甚至便将衡山、泰山诸派剑法、魔教十长老的武功夹在其中，又有何不可？倘若硬要划分，某种剑法可使，某种剑法不可使，那便是有所拘泥了。” 此后便即任意发招，倘若顺手，便将本门剑法以及石壁上种种招数掺杂其中，顿觉乐趣无穷。但五岳剑派的剑法固然各不相同，魔教十长老更似出自六七个不同门派，要将这许多不同路子的武学融为一体，几乎绝无可能。他练了良久，始终没法融合，忽想：“融不成一起，那又如何？又何必强求？” 当下再也不去分辨是什么招式，一经想到，便随心所欲地混入独孤九剑之中，但使来使去，总是那一招“有凤来仪”使得最多。又使一阵，随手一剑，又是一招“有凤来仪”，心念一动：“要是小师妹见到我将这招'有凤来仪'如此使法，不知会说什么？” 他凝剑不动，脸上现出温柔的微笑。这些日子来全心全意地练剑，便在睡梦之中，想到的也只是独孤九剑的种种变化，这时蓦地里想起岳灵珊，不由得相思之情难以自已。跟着又想：“不知她是否暗中又在偷偷教林师弟学剑？师父命令虽严，小师妹却向来大胆，恃着师娘宠爱，说不定又在教剑了。就算不教剑，朝夕相见，两人必定越来越好。”渐渐的，脸上微笑转成了苦笑，再到后来，连一丝笑意也没有了。
他心意沮丧，慢慢收剑，忽听得陆大有的声音叫道：“大师哥，大师哥！”叫声甚为惶急。
