In the silence, only the heavy breathing of male and female disciples could be heard.Yue Buqun suddenly said coldly: "Hero Linghu Chong, if you still haven't unlocked my acupuncture points, do you really want everyone to beg you?" Linghu Chong was taken aback, and said in a trembling voice: "Master, you...why are you joking with this disciple? I...I will immediately relieve Master's acupoint." Struggling to get up, he staggered to Yue Buqun, and asked: "Master...Master, what acupoint to solve?" Yue Buqun was extremely annoyed, remembering Linghu Chong's pretentious self-stabbing on Huashan Mountain, refusing to kill Tian Boguang even if he said nothing, now it's the old drama repeating itself, not only letting go of the fifteen masked guests, but also deliberately delaying. , doesn't mean to untie the acupoints for myself, afraid that I will chase and kill those masked villains, and said angrily: "Don't worry about it!"Ever since he tapped the acupoints for the enemy, he has been constantly attacking with strong internal force, but the person who tapped his acupoints exerted great force, while the ones tapped were "Jade Pillow", "Tanzhong", "Juzhui" and "Shoulders". Several important acupoints such as "Zhen" and "Zhitang", the meridians running in these acupoints are blocked, the power of Zixia's magical power is greatly reduced, and it can't be undone for a while.

Linghu Chong just wanted to release the acupoint for Master as soon as possible, but he couldn't use any strength. He tried to lift his arm several times, but the golden stars danced in front of his eyes and buzzed in his ears. He almost fainted and had to lie on Yue Buqun's body. Beside him, waiting for him to self-resolve the acupoints. Mrs. Yue lay on the ground, she lost all her energy just now, her whole body was exhausted, and she couldn't raise her hand to hold down the wound on her leg. Seeing that the sky was twilight and the rain gradually stopped, everyone's faces gradually changed from hazy to clear.Yue Buqun's head was filled with white mist, his face was full of purple aura, suddenly he let out a long howl, and all the acupoints in his body were released.He jumped up, clapped or slapped, tapped or pinched with both hands, instantly unlocked all the sealed acupuncture points, and then injected internal force into Madam Yue's body to help her smooth Qi.Yue Lingshan hurriedly bandaged her mother's injured leg.

The disciples recalled the scene of their narrow escape last night, it really seemed like a lifetime away.Shi Daizi, Gao Genming and others wept when they saw Liang Fa's decapitation, and several female disciples burst into tears.Everyone said: "Fortunately, big brother defeated these villains, otherwise it would be unthinkable." Gao Genming saw Linghu Chong lying in the mud, and went to help him up. Yue Buqun said indifferently: "Chong'er, what are the origins of those fifteen masked men?" Linghu Chong said: "Disciple... I don't know." Yue Buqun said: "Do you know them? How do you know them?" Linghu Chong said He said in amazement: "I have never seen any of them before." Yue Buqun said: "If that's the case, then why did I order you to keep them to investigate carefully, but you didn't listen to them and ignored them?" Linghu Chong said: "Disciple ...Disciple...I'm really weak all over, I don't have any strength at all, at this moment...at this moment..." As he spoke, his body swayed, obviously standing alone was quite difficult.

Yue Buqun snorted, and said, "What a show you did!" Sweat dripped down Linghu Chong's forehead, he bent his knees, fell to his knees, and said, "This disciple has been lonely since childhood, thanks to the great kindness and virtue of Master and Wife, Take him in and raise him, and treat his disciple as his own son. Even though the disciple is unworthy, he will never dare to go against the master's will and intentionally deceive the master and wife." Yue Buqun said: "You dare not deceive me and your teacher? Then your sword skills, Hmph, where did you learn it? Could it be that it was taught by a god in a dream, and it suddenly fell from the sky?" Linghu Chong kowtowed and said, "Please forgive me, master, this senior who taught swordsmanship once asked his disciple to agree, no matter what. Don't reveal the origin of the sword technique to others, even to master and mistress."

Yue Buqun sneered and said, "Of course, with your martial arts at this level, why do you still take Master and Mistress seriously? How can our meager skill of the Huashan School be a blow of your divine sword? That masked man Didn’t the old man say that? You should have taken over the head of the Huashan faction a long time ago.” Linghu Chong didn't dare to answer, just kowtowed, his thoughts fluctuated: "If I don't tell the story of Master Feng's teaching of swordsmanship, master and wife will not forgive me after all. But a man must be true to his word. Tian Boguang is a flower picking thief. When I was being tortured by the six immortals of Peach Valley, I never revealed the whereabouts of Uncle Feng Tai. Linghu Chong has received a great favor from others, and I must not let him down. My heart for Master and Mistress can be shown every day. What is it?" He said: "Master, mistress, it's not that the disciple dared to disobey the order of the master, it is really difficult to say. In the future, the disciple will go to this senior to ask him to allow the disciple to tell the master and mistress what happened. Don’t dare to hide anything.”

Yue Buqun said: "Okay, get up!" Linghu Chong kowtowed twice, and when he was about to stand up, his knees softened and he fell to his knees.Lin Pingzhi was beside him, reaching out to pull him up. Yue Buqun sneered and said: "You are skilled in swordsmanship, and you are even more skilled in acting." Linghu Chong didn't dare to answer, thinking: "Master treats me with great kindness, today he wronged me, and the truth will eventually come to light in the future. This matter is too strange , so it's no wonder that the old man is suspicious." Although he was wronged, he didn't mean to complain at all.

Mrs. Yue said softly, "If it weren't for Chong'er's wonderful swordsmanship last night, the entire Huashan faction was wiped out. Of course, we women would have been humiliated. It doesn't matter who the senior who taught Chonger's swordsmanship is... Well, the kindness we have received is really not shallow. As for the origins of those 15 villains, we can always find out in the future. How did Chong'er have friendship with them? Didn't they want to cut Chong'er up and down? Have you blinded them all again?" Yue Buqun raised his head in a daze, and Madam Yu Yue didn't seem to hear a word of what he said.

Some of the disciples lit a fire to cook, and some dug a hole on the spot to bury Liang Fa's body.After breakfast, everyone took out the dry clothes from the luggage and changed into wet clothes.Everyone looked at Yue Buqun and listened to his instructions, and they all thought: "Should I still go to Songshan to judge with the leader of the Left Alliance? Since Feng Buping was defeated by the master's sword, he should have no face to fight for the position of the head of the Huashan School. gone." Yue Buqun said to Mrs. Yue: "Junior Sister, where do you think we are going?" Mrs. Yue said, "There is no need to go to Mount Song. But since we have come out, there is no need to return to Mount Hua in a hurry." She was afraid of the Six Immortals of Peach Valley, no Go back to the mountain if you dare.Yue Buqun said: "There is nothing left and right, it's not bad to walk around, so that the disciples can gain some experience and knowledge."

Yue Lingshan was overjoyed, she clapped her hands and said: "That's great, Daddy..." But then she thought that Senior Brother Liang Fa had just died, so she was so happy immediately, it really didn't fit, she just clapped her hands, then stopped.Yue Buqun smiled and said: "You are the happiest when it comes to traveling in mountains and rivers. Daddy just let your sex go, Shan'er, where do you think we can go?" He said looking at Lin Pingzhi. Yue Lingshan said: "Father, since you are talking about playing, you have to have a good time. The farther you go, the better. Let's all go to Xiao Linzi's house to play. I went to Fuzhou with my second senior brother, but it was a pity that I pretended to be a Ugly girl, I don't want to walk around outside, I haven't seen anything. Fujian longan is big and sweet, and there are lucky oranges, banyan trees, daffodils..."

Madam Yue shook her head and said, "It's a long way from here to Fujian. How can we have so much money? Could it be that the Huashan faction turned into a gang of beggars, begging for food all the way." Lin Pingzhi said: "Master, Mistress, we entered Henan Province within a few days, and my disciple's grandmother's home is in Luoyang." Mrs. Yue said: "Well, your grandfather Wang Yuanba is from Luoyang." Lin Pingzhi Said: "Both of my disciple's parents are deceased. I really want to visit my grandfather and grandmother and tell me the details. If the master, master's wife, and all the senior brothers and sisters are willing to honor me and stay at the disciple's grandparent's house for a few days, my grandfather and grandmother must be very impressed." Rong Chong. Then let's take a leisurely tour of the mountains and rivers, and go to Fujian She for a walk. In the Changsha sub-bureau, my disciples took back a lot of gold, silver and jewels from the Qingcheng faction. Don't worry about it..."

Ever since Madam Yue stabbed Tao Shixian with a sword, she was only worried about being caught by the Four Immortals of Taogu every day, and her whole body was numb and unable to move. I don't know how many nightmares I have had.After she saw her husband pay attention to Lin Ping, Lin Pingzhi invited everyone to go to Fujian, thinking that the farther the escape, the better. She and her husband had never been to the south in their lives, and it would be good to go to Fujian, so she laughed. Said: "Brother, Xiao Linzi is in charge of food and housing, shall we go and eat his free food?" Yue Buqun smiled and said: "Pingzhi's grandfather is invincible with a golden knife, Mr. Wang is so powerful in the Central Plains. I have always respected each other, but it's just a matter of fate. Quanzhou, Fujian is where the Southern Shaolin is located, and there have been many martial arts masters since then. Let's go there Traveling to Luoyang and Fujian, if you can make a few worthy friends, it will be a worthwhile trip.” All the disciples were elated when they heard that Master agreed to go to Fujian for sightseeing.Lin Pingzhi and Yue Lingshan looked at each other and smiled, their hearts bursting with joy. During this time, only Linghu Chong felt dejected, thinking: "Master and Master's Wife are not going anywhere, but why go to Luoyang to meet Junior Brother Lin's grandfather first, and then travel thousands of miles to Fujian as a guest. I was betrothed to him. When I went to Luoyang, I went to meet his parents and make an appointment. When I arrived in Fujian, I would probably marry him at his Lin family. I am an orphan with no father, no mother, no relatives, how can I split up with him all over the world? Compared with the Fuwei Escort? Junior brother Lin went to Luoyang to visit grandpa and grandma, so what if I went with him?” Seeing all the juniors and sisters smiling, leaving the tragic death of Liang Fa out of the blue, it was even more unpleasant, thinking: "After lodging tonight, I might as well go away quietly in the dark night. Could it be that I can follow everyone, eat Junior Brother Lin's food, and get Junior Brother Lin's money? No matter how hard I smile, congratulate him and Junior Junior Sister for raising their eyebrows and growing old together?"
After the crowd set off, Linghu Chong followed, exhausted, walking slower and slower, and getting farther and farther away from the crowd.At noon, he was sitting on a stone by the side of the road panting for breath, but he saw Lao Denuo coming back quickly, and said, "Brother, how are you? Are you tired from walking? I'll wait for you." Linghu Chong said: "Okay I'm sorry to trouble you." Lao Denuo said: "Master has hired a big car in the town ahead, and I will come to pick you up." Linghu Chong felt a warm feeling in his heart: "Although Master is suspicious of me, Master still treats me extremely Good." Not long after, a cart pulled by mules came.Linghu rushed into the cart, and Lao Denuo accompanied him. That night, when he bought a hotel for accommodation, Lao Denuo had the same room with him.For two days in a row, Lao Denuo actually stayed with him every step of the way.Linghu Chong was very grateful to see that he cared about his family loyalty and took care of his sick body, and thought: "Junior Brother Lao is an art investment teacher, he is much older than me, and he usually doesn't talk to me too much. After suffering, he treated me so wholeheartedly. It is really Lu Yao who knows the horsepower and sees people's hearts after a long time. The other juniors didn't dare to talk to me when they saw that the master looked unkind to me. Alas, if the sixth junior brother is still here, That would make a big difference.” On the night of the third day, he was resting on the kang with his eyes closed, when he suddenly heard his junior brother Shu Qi whispering at the door: "Second Senior Brother, Master asked you, what happened today, Senior Brother?" He said: "Shut up, get out!" After hearing these two words, Linghu Chong's heart became cold, and he realized that Master's suspicion of him was really serious, and even sent Lao Denuo to spy on him secretly. Shu Qi could only be heard walking away on tiptoe.Lao Denuo came to the Kang to see if he was really asleep.Linghu Chong was furious, and immediately wanted to jump up and denounce him, but then he thought: "What does this matter have to do with him? He is following the orders of his master, so he can't help himself." He suppressed his anger and pretended fast asleep.Laudno stepped out of the room lightly. Linghu Chong knew that he was going to report his movements to the master, so he sneered secretly: "I haven't done anything wrong, and ten or a hundred of you are watching me day and night. Linghu Chong is upright, so why should he be afraid?" After taking the internal breath, I only felt the qi and blood surging, it was extremely uncomfortable, and I only panted loudly while lying on the pillow, after a long time, it gradually calmed down.Sitting up, putting on his clothes and shoes, he thought to himself: "Since the master no longer treats me as a disciple, he is on guard against thieves. What's the point of me staying in the Huashan sect? Why don't I just go away. In the future, the master will understand me , don’t understand, let him do everything.” At this time, someone outside the window whispered: "Lie down and don't move!" Another whispered: "It seems that the elder brother got up and went to the ground." The voice is so good, I could hear clearly, I recognized the two young juniors, obviously they were lying in the courtyard, preventing myself from escaping.Linghu Chong grasped his fists with both hands, only pinched his joints and said to himself: "If I leave now, I will look guilty. Good! I won't leave, and you can deal with me as you please." Suddenly shouted: "Shop boy, shop boy , bring the wine." After calling for a long time, the waiter in the shop agreed to bring the wine.Linghu Chong was so drunk that he lost consciousness.The next morning, he was helped into the cart by Lao Denuo, and he still shouted: "Bring the wine, I want to drink it!" A few days later, Huashan sent people to Luoyang and stayed in a big inn.Lin Pingzhi went to his grandfather's house alone.Yue Buqun and the others all changed into clean clothes. Linghu Chong hadn't changed the muddy gown he was wearing since the night battle outside the Yaowang Temple that day, and he was still covered in filth today, with drunken eyes.Yue Lingshan took a long robe, walked up to him, and said, "Master, can you change into this robe?" Linghu Chong said, "Why do you wear Master's robe for me?" Yue Lingshan said, "Later Xiao Linzi invites us to go to his house, and you can change into Daddy's robe." Linghu Chong said: "Do you have to wear beautiful clothes when you go to his house?" He looked her up and down as he spoke. I saw her wearing a green silk satin thin leather jacket, and a light green satin skirt underneath, her face was lightly powdered, her black hair was combed glossy, and there was a beaded flower on her temple. Linghu Chong remembered that in the past it was only during the New Year She dressed up so deliberately, her heart felt sour, and she was about to say a few angry words, but she thought: "A man, why are you so mean?" So she held back. Yue Lingshan looked shy and uneasy under his sharp gaze, and said, "If you don't love me, then there's no need to change it." Linghu Chong said, "I'm not used to wearing new clothes, so don't change them!" Yue Lingshan didn't talk to him anymore. Said, take the robe and go out of the house. Only a loud voice said from outside the door: "Master Yue Da came here from afar, but I have never greeted you from afar, but you are really rude!" Yue Buqun knew that it was the invincible Wang Yuanba who came to meet him in person, he and his wife looked at each other and smiled, he was very happy, and they both went out to greet him immediately. I saw that Wang Yuanba was about seventy years old, his face was full of red light, a long white beard fluttered on his chest under his chin, he was energetic, and he was clattering two golden galls the size of goose eggs in his left hand.In martial arts, it is very common for people to play with iron gallbladders, but they are all made of iron or pure steel, but what Wang Yuanba holds in his hands are two yellow golden gallbladders, which are more than twice as heavy as iron gallbladders. Show the air of luxury.When he saw Yue Buqun, he laughed loudly and said: "It's a pleasure to meet you, it's a pleasure to meet you! The head of Yue Da is well-known in the martial arts world, and the little old man has missed him every day for more than ten years. When he came to Luoyang today, he is really a martial artist in Zhongzhou It’s a great joy.” He held Yue Buqun’s right hand and shook it again and again, his joy was very sincere. Yue Buqun said with a smile: "Your Majesty and I took my disciples to travel and visit friends to increase my knowledge. The first person I want to visit is Mr. Zhongzhou Hero and Invincible King of the Golden Sword. Dozens of uninvited guests like us are welcome to come. Reckless." Wang Yuanba said loudly: "No one is allowed to mention the words 'Golden Saber Invincible' in front of Master Yue. Whoever mentions it is not flattering me, but hurting Wang Yuanba. Mr. Yue , you take in my grandson, and we will be reborn together. Our Huashan faction and Jindaomen will be a family from now on, and the two brothers will never separate each other. Come, come, everyone, come to my house, and he will not stay with him for a year or so. No one is allowed to leave Luoyang. Master Yue, my old man will carry your luggage for you personally." Yue Buqun hurriedly said, "I dare not do this." Wang Yuanba turned his head and said to the two sons behind him: "Bo Fen and Zhong Qiang, hurry up and kowtow to Yue Shishu and Yue Shimu." Wang Bofen and Wang Zhongqiang agreed in unison and bowed their knees.Yue Buqun and his wife hurriedly knelt down to return the salute, and said: "We are of the same generation, how can the word 'shishu' be used properly? As far as Pingzhi is concerned, we are also of the same generation." Wang Bofen and Wang Zhongqiang were in the Wulin area of ​​Hubei The name is very famous, although he has always admired Yue Buqun, but he is unwilling to kowtow to him, but his father's order cannot be violated, so he kneels reluctantly, seeing Yue Buqun and his wife kowtow in return, he is very happy.The four bowed and stood up. When Yue Buqun looked at the two brothers, he saw that both brothers were very tall, only Wang Zhongqiang was much fatter.The temples of the two are bulging high, and the muscles and bones in the hands are protruding. It is obvious that they have both internal and external skills.Yue Buqun said to all the disciples: "Everyone, come here to pay respects to Mr. Wang and the two uncles. The martial arts of the Golden Knife School are powerful in the Central Plains. The previous ancestors of our Huashan School have always respected the Golden Knife Gate. From now on, everyone will be honored by Mr. Wang and his two masters." The guidance of the two uncles must be of great benefit." All the disciples responded in unison: "Yes!" Kneeling all over the floor in the lobby of the inn. Wang Yuanba laughed and said, "Don't dare to do it, don't dare to do it!" Wang Bofen and Wang Zhongqiang each returned half a salute. Lin Pingzhi stood aside, naming all the disciples of Huashan Group to Grandpa.Wang Yuanba has a lot of money, he has already prepared a meeting gift of forty taels of silver for each person, and the Wang brothers will distribute it one by one. When Lin Pingzhi introduced Yue Lingshan, Wang Yuanba smiled and said to Yue Buqun: "Brother Yue, your daughter-in-law is really a good-looking talent, but is there any in-law?" Yue Buqun laughed and said, "The girl is still young. Little, besides, for us martial arts learners, the eldest girl's family can use knives and swords all day long, and she can't know any red-hot cooking, so who wants a wild girl like her?" Wang Yuanba said with a smile: "My brother is too modest, the general family tiger girl, the children of ordinary people would not dare to climb high. But for a girl's family, it is good to learn some boudoir things." Speaking of this, the voice It was lowered, quite sadly.Yue Buqun knew that he was thinking of his daughter who died in Hunan, so he immediately put away his smile and replied, "Yes!" Wang Yuanba was a hearty person, he restrained the pain of bereavement immediately, laughed, and said: "Ling Ai is so talented and beautiful, it is really not easy to find a young hero to match her." Lao Denuo went to the shop and helped Linghu to rush out.Linghu Chong staggered, he didn't kowtow when he saw Wang Yuanba and the Wang brothers, but bowed deeply, and said: "Disciple Linghu Chong, pay homage to Mr. Wang and the two uncles." Yue Buqun frowned and said, "Why don't you kowtow?" Wang Yuanba had heard his grandson tell him that Linghu Chong was injured, and said with a smile, "Nephew Linghu is not feeling well, so there is no need to be polite. Brother Yue, you have the internal strength of the Huashan sect. Xiang said that he is number one in the Five Sacred Sword Sect, and his alcohol capacity must be astonishing, come, I'll drink ten bowls with you." Then he took Yue Buqun's hand and walked out of the inn. Mrs. Yue, Wang Bofen, Wang Zhongqiang and all the disciples from Huashan followed behind. Once out of the store, the vehicles and mounts outside have already been prepared.The female relatives ride in chariots, while the male passengers ride horses. The carriages are luxuriously decorated, and the saddles and bridles of the animals are distinctive.It was less than an hour since Lin Pingzhi went to report the news to Wang Yuanba's inn to welcome the guests. In a hurry, the chariots and horses were all ready. This alone shows the strength of the Golden Sword Wang family in Luoyang. When I arrived at Wang's house, I saw a tall house with a vermilion lacquered gate and two big copper rings on the gate, which were polished to a bright shine. Eight strong men waited outside the gate with their hands down.As soon as I entered the gate, I saw a large black lacquered plaque hanging on the beam, with the four gold characters of "Being brave for righteousness" written on it, and the inscription on it was the governor of Henan Province. This evening Wang Yuanba arranged a big banquet for Yue Buqun's master and apprentice, not only invited well-known people in Luoyang martial arts to accompany him, but also many gentry, celebrities and wealthy businessmen were among the guests. Linghu Chong is a major disciple of Huashan School, among the male guests from afar, except for Yue Buqun, he is the eldest.Seeing his ragged clothes and sluggish expression, everyone secretly wondered.But in the martial arts there are many unique and strange people, the leaders of the Beggar Clan are all dressed in rags, all the guests thought that this person is the leader of the Huashan School, he is very unusual, so they all treated him very politely. Linghu Chong sat on the second seat, accompanied by Wang Bofen as the host.After drinking for three rounds, Wang Bofen saw his indifferent expression, asked him three questions, and often only answered one, obviously disdainful of his boss, and remembered that in the inn, this man never kowtowed to his father and son. One, the meeting gift of forty taels of silver was accepted honestly and unceremoniously, so he couldn't help secretly getting angry, and when he talked about martial arts, he made indirect remarks and asked him a few questions for advice. Linghu Chong only said no, and didn't answer at all.It's not that he has any ill feeling towards Wang Bofen, but seeing that the Wang family is so extravagant, compared with him, a poor boy, he is really a heaven and a hell.When Lin Pingzhi arrived at his grandfather's house, he immediately changed into a Shu brocade robe. He was originally handsome, but this way of wearing it made him look even richer and more elegant, as rich as jade.When Linghu Chong saw it, he couldn't help but feel ashamed, and thought: "Don't say that my junior sister has been in love with him since she was on the mountain, even if she always treats me as before, and follows me, a poor man, what will she do for the rest of her life?" His heart was going back and forth, all wrapped around Yue Lingshan's body, no matter what Wang Bofen said to him, he naturally ignored it. Wang Bofen was in the Wulin area of ​​Zhongzhou, and everyone was afraid of him, but this night he met Linghu Chong, a young man, a few times. According to his usual temperament, he would have had a seizure long ago, but he was just thinking about the dead Sister, the second time I saw that my father respected the Huashan School, I suppressed my anger and toasted Linghu Chong one after another.Linghu Chong's glass was dry, and he had drunk about forty glasses before he knew it.He used to hold a lot of alcohol, he would not get drunk even if he had more than a hundred cups, but at this time his internal strength had been lost, which was greatly reduced, and the alcohol was in his heart, he was even more likely to get drunk, and by the time he had drunk more than forty cups, he was already very tipsy meaning.Uncle Wang thought to himself: "You are too unsophisticated. My nephew is your younger brother, so you should call me Shishu or Shishu. If you don't say anything, it's fine, you just ignore me. You Who am I, Wang Bofen? Alright, I'll get you drunk today, and make you make a big fool of yourself in front of everyone." Seeing that Linghu Chong was drunk and drunk, Wang Bofen said with a smile: "Brother Linghu, the first disciple of Huashan, is indeed a hero from a young age. He has high martial arts skills and a lot of alcohol. Come on, put on a big bowl and give it to Linghu. The young master pours wine." The members of the Wang family agreed loudly and came up to pour wine.Throughout Linghu Chong's life, he has never refused to be poured wine for him. When the bowl was dry, he drank another five or six bowls. Everyone at the same table said: "Young Hero Linghu is drunk. Drink a cup of hot tea to sober up." Wang Bofen laughed and said, "How can a disciple of the head of the Huashan School get drunk so easily? Brother Linghu, do it!" Fill a bowl of wine with him. Linghu Chong said: "Where... where are you drunk? I'm done!" Lifting the wine bowl, he gulped it down, and half of the wine was poured on the lapel of his clothes. Spit drippingly all over the table.The leftovers of wine and juice are scattered in all directions to smoke people.The people at the same table fled in fright, but Wang Bofen couldn't help but sneer.Linghu Chong vomited, and hundreds of pairs of eyes in the hall shot at him. Yue Buqun and his wife frowned, thinking to themselves: "This child just won't be able to stand on stage, and make himself a fool of himself in front of all these distinguished guests." Lao Denuo and Lin Pingzhi rushed over to support Linghu Chong at the same time.Lin Pingzhi said: "Brother, I'll help you to rest!" Linghu Chong said: "I... I'm not drunk, I still want to drink, bring me some wine." Lin Pingzhi said: "Yes, yes, quickly Here comes the wine." Linghu Chong squinted drunkenly, and said, "You...you... Xiao Linzi, why don't you go to accompany Junior Sister? Why are you pulling me? It's troublesome!" Lao Denuo whispered: "Brother, let's rest Rest, there are too many people here, don't talk nonsense!" Linghu Chong said angrily: "What did I say? Master sent you to monitor me and watch me, you... What evidence did you find? Even if there is no evidence, it is better to fake it Go please Master!" Lao Denuo was afraid that he would speak more unscrupulously when he was drunk, so he and Lin Pingzhi supported him, and forced him into the back room to rest. When Yue Buqun heard him say "Master sent you to monitor me, what evidence did you find", even though he is very well-bred, he couldn't help but change his face.Wang Yuanba said with a smile: "Brother Yue, the young man talks nonsense after being drunk, what are you doing with him? Come, come, drink!" Yue Buqun forced a smile: "The country boy has never seen the world, but he is called Mr. Wang I laughed." After the banquet, Yue Buqun told Lao Denuo not to follow Linghu Chong, but to keep an eye out. That night, Wang Yuanba called his two sons, closed the study door, and talked with Yue Buqun and his wife about how Fuwei Escort Bureau had been picked off by Qingcheng faction, his daughter and son-in-law were killed by Yu Canghai and Mu Gaofeng, and how to avenge them in the future.Yue Buqun said bluntly, Qingcheng faction has a large number of people, and there are disputes within Wuyue Sword faction, it may not be possible to gain the upper hand if they start a quarrel at this moment, if there is a need to contribute in the future, the Huashan faction is obliged to do so.Wang Yuanba and his son and Lin Pingzhi thanked Yue Buqun and his wife, and the two families talked until late at night before they broke up.
Linghu Chong was so drunk that he didn't wake up until the afternoon of the next day. He didn't remember a word of what he said last night.I only felt a splitting headache, and saw that I was sleeping alone in a room, and the bedding was very clean.He walked out of the room, but none of the juniors were there, and when he asked the servants, it turned out that he was discussing martial arts with the nephews and disciples of the Wang family of Jindaomen in the martial arts lecture hall at the back.Linghu Chong thought to himself: "What am I doing with them? Why don't we go for a stroll outside." Immediately he went out. Luoyang was the capital of several dynasties with a grand scale, but the shops were not very prosperous.Linghu Chong was not very literate, and his knowledge of ancient historical events was limited. When he saw various places of interest in Luoyang City, he was at a loss as to their origins, and was not interested in seeing them.Strolling into an alley, I saw seven or eight rascals playing dice in a small hotel.He squeezed in, took out the meeting gift packet that Wang Yuanba had given yesterday, took out the silver, and started betting with them.In the evening, I returned home drunk in this small hotel. For several days in a row, he gambled and drank with these rascals. He was lucky in the first few days and won a few taels, but on the fourth day he was completely defeated, losing forty taels of silver.Those rascals would not allow him to gamble.Linghu Chong was furious, and he just ordered wine to drink. After drinking a few pots, the waiter said: "Young man, you have lost all the money, how can you pay back the wine bill?" : "The small shop is small and the profit is small, and the relatives and friends will not owe you on credit!" Linghu Chong was furious, and shouted: "Do you have no money for bullying the young master?" , No money, no credit." Linghu Chong looked back at himself, his clothes were ragged, he didn't look like a rich man, he had nothing but a long sword on his waist, he immediately untied the sword, threw it on the table, and said, "Go to the pawnshop for me .” A scoundrel still wanted to win his money, so he hurriedly said, "Okay! I'll pawn it to you." He held his sword and left. The waiter brought two more jugs of wine.Linghu Chong drank up a pot, and the scoundrel had brought back a few pieces of silver, and said: "A total of three, two or four coins have been pawned." He gave him both the silver and the pawn ticket.Linghu Chong weighed a handful of silver and didn't even get three liang, so he didn't say much at the moment, and started betting with all the scoundrels again.Gambling until evening, even drinking and losing, and the two taels of silver disappeared. Linghu Chong turned to Chen Waizui, a rascal next to him, and said, "Borrow three liang of silver, and if you win, you will pay it back double." Chen Waizui smiled and said, "What if you lose?" Linghu Chong said, "Losing? I will pay you back tomorrow." Chen twisted his mouth and said: "I'm sorry you kid has no money at home. What do you get for repaying if you lose? Sell your wife? Sell your sister?" Linghu Chong was furious, and he slapped his backhand. At this time, he was drunk. For a few minutes, he snatched all the taels of silver in front of him.Chen Waizui shouted: "Reverse, rebellious! This kid is a robber." All the scoundrels were originally a group, and they rushed forward, and greeted Linghu Chong with seven or eight fists. Linghu Chong didn't have a sword in his hand, and he lost all his strength, he was pushed to the ground by a few scoundrels, they punched and kicked him, his nose and eyes were swollen in a short time.Suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes, several horsemen passed by, and someone immediately shouted: "Get out of the way, get out of the way!" He waved his whip and drove all the scoundrels away.Linghu Chong fell to the ground, unable to get up again. A woman's voice suddenly called out: "Hey, isn't this Senior Brother?" It was Yue Lingshan.Another person said: "Let me have a look!" It was Lin Pingzhi.He got off his horse, turned Linghu Chong's body, and said in surprise, "Brother, what's the matter with you?" Linghu Chong shook his head, and said with a wry smile, "You're drunk! You lost the bet!" Lin Pingzhi hurriedly picked him up and helped him up. Get on horseback. In addition to Lin Pingzhi and Yue Lingshan, there were four others riding horses, Wang Bofen's two daughters and Wang Zhongqiang's two sons, who were cousins ​​of Lin Pingzhi.The six of them went out early in the morning to play in various temples and temples in Luoyang, and they didn't return home until now, they didn't expect to see Linghu Chong being beaten so embarrassingly in this alley.Those four people were greatly surprised: "He Huashan Sect ranks among the Five Sacred Sword Sects. Grandpa usually mentions it and praises him. A few days ago, he competed with all his disciples in martial arts, and each of them has extraordinary skills. This Linghu Chong is the head disciple of Huashan Sect. Why can't you even beat a few hooligans?" Seeing that his nostrils were bleeding from the beating, and it was not fake, it was really strange. Linghu Chong returned to Wang Yuanba's mansion and raised him for several days before gradually recovering.Yue Buqun and his wife heard that he gambled with scoundrels, lost money and fought, they were very angry, and they didn't come to see him.
On the fifth day, Wang Zhongqiang's youngest son, Wang Jiaju, walked into the room excitedly, and said, "Brother Linghu, I gave you a bad breath today. I have found all the seven scoundrels who beat you that day." Come, give me a good whipping." Linghu Chong didn't really mind this matter, and said indifferently: "That's unnecessary. I was drunk that day, so it was my fault." Wang Jiaju said: "How can it be done? You are a guest of my family, you don't look at the monk's face and the Buddha's face, how can you be a guest of my Jin Dao Wang's family in Luoyang City and not get back? If you don't say this, Can people still see my Golden Saber Wang family in their eyes?" Deep down in Linghu Chong's heart, he was quite disgusted with the "Golden Saber Wang Family", and he heard that he had a "Golden Saber Wang Family" on his left and a "Golden Saber Wang Family" on his right. Like a wealthy family, he couldn't help blurting out: "To deal with some hooligans, the Wang family with a golden knife is used." As soon as he said that, he regretted it and was about to apologize when Wang Jiaju's face darkened, and he said, "Brother Linghu , What are you talking about? If my brother and I hadn’t chased away these seven hooligans that day, would you still be alive today?” Linghu Chong smiled lightly and said, “Yes! I would like to thank you two for saving your life. Yep." Hearing his tone, Wang Jiaju knew that what he said was ironic, so he became even more angry, and said loudly: "You are the head disciple of the Huashan School, and you can't even deal with a few hooligans in Luoyang City, hehe, others don't know, don't you want to Said that you are in vain?" Linghu Chong was so bored, he didn't care about anything, he said: "I don't even have a false name, but the word 'was a false name' is out of the question." At this moment, someone outside the door said: "Brother, what are you talking about with Brother Linghu?" The door curtain was lifted, and a person walked in, but it was Wang Jiajun, the eldest son of Wang Zhongqiang. Wang Jiaju said angrily: "Brother, I kindly vented my anger on him. I found all the seven ruffians and gave everyone a severe whip. Unexpectedly, this hero Linghu blamed me for being troublesome." Jundao: "Brother, you don't know something. Just now I heard Junior Sister Yue say that this real brother Linghu, who is not showing his face, stabbed him blind with a long sword in front of the Yaowang Temple in Shaanxi that day. The eyes of fifteen first-class masters are really swordsmanship like gods, which is rare in the world, haha!" His smile was quite frivolous, obviously he didn't believe Yue Lingshan's words at all.Wang Jiaju followed suit with a laugh, and said: "Thinking about those 15 first-class masters, compared to our rascals in Luoyang City, their martial arts are still so far behind, haha, haha!" Linghu Chong was not angry, he smiled, sat on the chair and hugged his right knee, shaking it slightly. This time Wang Jiajun was ordered by his uncle and father to interrogate Linghu Chong.Brothers Wang Bofen and Zhongqiang originally told him to ask questions carefully and not to offend the guests, but seeing Linghu Chong's arrogant expression, he didn't take his brother seriously at all, and gradually became angry and said: "Brother Linghu, little brother I have something to ask." The voice said loudly.Linghu Chong said: "Don't dare." Wang Jiajun said: "Listen to what Pingzhi's cousin said, when my uncle and aunt passed away, Brother Linghu was the only one who died by his side." Linghu Chong said: "Exactly. "Wang Jiajun said: "My aunt's last words, brother Linghu brought it to my cousin Pingzhi?" Linghu Chong said: "That's right." When Linghu Chong heard this, he stood up abruptly and said loudly, "What did you say?" 王家骏防他暴起动手,退了一步,道:“我姑丈有一部《辟邪剑谱》,托你交给平之表弟,怎地你至今仍未交出?”令狐冲听他信口诬蔑,只气得全身发抖,颤声道:“谁……谁说有一部《辟……辟邪剑谱》,托……托……托我交给林师弟?”王家骏笑道:“倘若并无其事,你又何必作贼心虚,说起话来也胆战心惊?”令狐冲强抑怒气,说道:“两位王兄,令狐冲在府上是客,你说这等话,是令祖、令尊之意,还是两位自己的意思?” 王家骏道:“我不过随口问问,又有什么大不了的事?跟我爷爷、爹爹可全不相干。不过福州林家的辟邪剑法威震天下,武林中众所知闻,林姑丈突然之间逝世,他随身珍藏的《辟邪剑谱》又不知去向,我们既是至亲,自不免要查问查问。” 令狐冲道:“是小林子叫你问的,是不是?他自己为什么不来问我?” 王家驹嘿嘿嘿地笑了三声,说道:“平之表弟是你师弟,他又怎敢开口问你?”令狐冲冷笑道:“既有你洛阳金刀王家撑腰,嘿嘿,你们现下可以一起逼问我啦。那么去叫林平之来吧。”王家骏道:“阁下是我家客人,'逼问'二字,可担当不起。我兄弟不过心怀好奇,这么问上一句,令狐兄肯答固然甚好,不肯答呢,我们自也无法可施。” 令狐冲点头道:“我不肯答!你们无法可施,这就请吧!” 王氏兄弟面面相觑,没料到他干净爽快,一句话就将门封住了。 王家骏咳嗽一声,另找话头,说道:“令狐兄,你一剑刺瞎了一十五位高手的双眼,这手剑招如此神奇,多半是从《辟邪剑谱》中学来的吧!” 令狐冲大吃一惊,全身出了一阵冷汗,双手忍不住发颤,登时心下一片雪亮:“师父、师娘和众师弟、师妹不感激我救了他们性命,反而人人大有疑忌之意,我始终不明白是什么缘故。原来如此,原来如此!原来他们都认定我吞没了林震南的《辟邪剑谱》。他们既从来没见过独孤九剑,我又不肯泄露风太师叔传剑的秘密,眼见我在思过崖上住了数月,突然之间剑术大进,连剑宗封不平那样的高手都敌我不过,若不是从《辟邪剑谱》中学到了奇妙高招,这剑法又从何处学来?风太师叔传剑之事太过突兀,没人能料想得到,而林震南夫妇逝世之时又只我一人在侧,人人自然都会猜想,那部武林高手大生觊觎之心的《辟邪剑谱》,必定是落入了我手中。旁人这般猜想,并不希奇。但师父师母抚养我长大,师妹和我情若兄妹,我令狐冲是何等样人,居然也信我不过?嘿嘿,可真将人瞧得小了!”思念及此,脸上自然而然露出了愤慨不平之意。 王家驹甚为得意,微笑道:“我这句话猜对了,是不是?那《辟邪剑谱》呢?我们也不想瞧你的,只是物归原主,你将剑谱还了给林家表弟,也就是啦。”令狐冲摇头道:“我从来没见过什么《辟邪剑谱》。林总镖头夫妇曾先后为青城派和塞北明驼木高峰所擒,他身上倘若有什么剑谱,旁人早已搜了出来。”王家骏道:“照啊,那《辟邪剑谱》何等宝贵,我姑丈姑母怎会随身携带?自然是藏在一个万分隐秘的所在。他们临死之时,这才请你转告平之表弟,哪知道……哪知道……嘿嘿!”王家驹道:“哪知道你悄悄去找了出来,就此吞没!” 令狐冲越听越怒,本来不愿多辩,但此事关联太过重大,不能蒙此污名,说道:“林总镖头要是真有这么一部神妙剑谱,他自己该当无敌于世了,怎么连几个青城派的弟子也敌不过,竟然为他们所擒?” 王家驹道:“这个……这个……”一时张口结舌,无言以对。王家骏却能言善辩,说道:“天下之事,无独有偶。令狐兄学会了辟邪剑法,剑术通神,可是连几个流氓地痞也敌不过,竟然为他们所擒,那是什么缘故?哈哈,这叫做真人不露相。可惜哪,令狐兄,你做得未免也太过分了些,堂堂华山派掌门大弟子,给洛阳城几个流氓打得全无招架之力。这番做作,任谁也难以相信。既是绝不可信,其中自然有诈。令狐兄,我劝你还是认了吧!” 按着令狐冲平日的性子,早就反唇相讥,只是此事太也凑巧,自己身处嫌疑之地,什么“金刀王家”,什么王氏兄弟,他半点也没放在心上,却不能让师父、师娘、师妹三人对自己起了疑忌之心,当即庄容道:“令狐冲生平从未见过什么《辟邪剑谱》。福州林总镖头的遗言,我也已一字不漏地传给了林师弟知晓。令狐冲若有欺骗隐瞒之事,罪该万死,不容于天地之间。”说着叉手而立,神色凛然。 王家骏微笑道:“这等关涉武林秘笈的大事,假使随口发了一个誓,便能混蒙了过去,令狐兄未免把天下人都当作傻子啦。”令狐冲强忍怒气,道:“依你说该当如何?”王家驹道:“我兄弟斗胆,要在令狐兄身边搜上一搜。”他顿了一顿,笑嘻嘻地道:“就算那日令狐兄给那七个流氓擒住了,动弹不得,他们也会在你身上里里外外地大搜一阵。”令狐冲冷笑道:“你们要在我身上搜检,哼,当我令狐冲是小贼么?”王家骏道:“不敢!令狐兄既说没取《辟邪剑谱》,又何必怕人搜检?搜上一搜,倘若身上并无剑谱,从此洗脱了嫌疑,岂不是好?”令狐冲点头道:“好!你去叫林师弟和岳师妹来,好让他二人作个证人。” 王家骏生怕自己一走开,兄弟落了单,立刻便为令狐冲所乘,若二人同去,他自然会将《辟邪剑谱》收了起来,再也搜检不到,说道:“要搜便搜,令狐兄若不是心虚,又何必这般诸多推搪?” 令狐冲心想:“我容你们搜查身子,只不过要在师父、师娘、师妹三人面前证明自己清白,你二人信得过我也好,信不过也好,令狐冲理会做甚?小师妹若不在场,岂容你二人的兽爪子碰一碰我身子?”当下缓缓摇头,说道:“凭你二位,只怕还不配搜我!” 王氏兄弟越是见他不让搜检,越认定他身上藏了《辟邪剑谱》,一来要在伯父与父亲面前领功,二来素闻辟邪剑法好生厉害,这剑谱既是自己兄弟搜查出来,林表弟不能不借给自己兄弟阅看。王家骏日前眼见他给几个无赖按在地下殴打,无力抗拒,料想他只不过剑法了得,拳脚功夫却甚平常,此刻他手中无剑,正好乘机动手,当下向兄弟使个眼色,说道:“令狐兄,你可别敬酒不吃吃罚酒,大家破了脸,却没什么好看。”两兄弟说着便逼将过来。 王家驹挺起胸膛,直撞过去。令狐冲伸手一挡。王家驹大声道:“啊哟,你打人么?”刁住他手腕,往下便是一压。他想令狐冲是华山派首徒,终究不可小觑了,这一刁一压,使上了家传的擒拿手法,更运上了十成力道。 令狐冲临敌应变经验极为丰富,眼见他挺胸上前,便知他不怀好意,右手这一挡原本藏了不少后着,给对方刁住了手腕,本当转臂斜切,转守为攻,岂知自己内力全失之后,虽照式转臂,却发不出半点力道,只听得喀喇一声响,右臂一麻,手肘关节已给他扭脱了臼,这才觉到彻骨之痛。 王家驹下手极是狠辣,一压脱令狐冲右臂,跟着一抓一扭,将他左臂齐肩的关节也扭脱了臼,说道:“哥哥,快搜!”王家骏伸出左腿,拦在令狐冲双腿之前,防他飞腿伤人,伸手到他怀中,将各种零星物事一件件掏了出来,突然摸到一本薄薄的书册,当即取出。二人同声欢叫:“在这里啦,在这里啦,搜到了林姑丈的《辟邪剑谱》!” 王氏兄弟忙不迭地揭开那本册子,只见第一页上写着“笑傲江湖之曲”六个篆字。王氏兄弟只粗通文墨,这六个字如是楷书,倒也认得,既作篆体,那便一个也不识得了。再翻过一页,但见一个个均是奇文怪字,他二人不知这是琴箫曲谱,心中既已认定是《辟邪剑谱》,自然更无怀疑,齐声大叫:“《辟邪剑谱》,《辟邪剑谱》!” 王家骏道:“给爹爹瞧去。”拿了那部琴箫曲谱,急奔出房。王家驹在令狐冲腰里重重踢了一脚,骂道:“不要脸的小贼!”又在他脸上吐了口唾沫。 令狐冲初时气得几乎胸膛也要炸了,但转念一想:“这两个小子无知无识,他祖父和父亲却不致如此粗鄙,待会得知这是琴谱箫谱,非来向我陪罪不可。”只是双臂脱臼,一阵阵疼痛难当,又想:“我内功全失,遇到街上的流氓无赖也毫无抵抗之力,已成废人一个,活在世上,更有何用?”他躺在床上,额头不住冒汗,伤心之际,忍不住眼泪扑簌簌流下,但想王氏兄弟定然转眼便回,不可示弱于人,当即拭干了眼泪。 过了好一会,只听得脚步声响,王氏兄弟快步回来。王家骏冷笑道:“去见我爷爷。” 令狐冲怒道:“不去!你爷爷不来向我赔罪,我去见他干吗?”王氏兄弟哈哈大笑。王家驹道:“我爷爷向你这小贼赔罪?发你的春秋大梦了!去,去!”两人抓住令狐冲腰间衣服,将他从床上提了起来,走出房外。令狐冲骂道:“金刀王家还自夸侠义道呢,却如此狂妄欺人,当真卑鄙之极。”王家骏反手一掌,打得他满口是血。 令狐冲仍然骂声不绝,给王氏兄弟提到后面花厅之中。
只见岳不群夫妇和王元霸分宾主而坐,王伯奋、仲强二人坐在王元霸下首。令狐冲兀自大骂:“金刀王家,卑鄙无耻,武林中从未见过这等污秽肮脏的人家!” 岳不群脸一沉,喝道:“冲儿,住口!” 令狐冲听到师父喝斥,这才止声不骂,向着王元霸怒目而视。 王元霸手中拿着那部琴箫曲谱,淡淡地道:“令狐贤侄,这部《辟邪剑谱》,你是从何处得来的?” 令狐冲仰天大笑,笑声半晌不止。岳不群斥道:“冲儿,尊长问你,便当据实禀告,何以胆敢如此无礼?什么规矩?”令狐冲道:“师父,弟子重伤之后,全身无力,你瞧这两个小子怎生对付我,嘿嘿,这是江湖上待客的规矩吗?” 王仲强道:“倘若是朋友佳客,我们王家说什么也不敢得罪。但你负人所托,将这部《辟邪剑谱》据为己有,这是盗贼之行,我洛阳金刀王家是清白人家,岂能再当他是朋友?”令狐冲道:“你祖孙三代口口声声地说这是《辟邪剑谱》。你们见过《辟邪剑谱》没有?怎知这便是《辟邪剑谱》?”王仲强一怔,道:“这部册子从你身上搜了出来,岳师兄又说这不是华山派的武功书谱,却不是《辟邪剑谱》是什么?” 令狐冲气极反笑,说道:“你既说是《辟邪剑谱》,便算是《辟邪剑谱》好了。但愿你金刀王家依样照式,练成天下无敌的剑法,从此洛阳王家在武林中号称刀剑双绝,哈哈!” 王元霸道:“令狐贤侄,小孙一时得罪,你也不必介意。人孰无过,知过能改,善莫大焉。你既把剑谱交了出来,冲着你师父的面子,咱们还能追究么?这件事,大家此后谁也别提。我先给你接上了手膀再说。”说着下座走向令狐冲,伸手去抓他左掌。 令狐冲退后两步,厉声道:“且慢!令狐冲可不受你买好。” 王元霸愕然道:“我向你买什么好?” 令狐冲怒道:“我令狐冲又不是木头人,我的手臂你们爱折便折,爱接便接!”向左两步,走到岳夫人面前,叫道:“师娘!” 岳夫人叹了口气,将他双臂给扭脱的关节都给接上了。 令狐冲道:“师娘,这明明是一本七弦琴的琴谱、洞箫的箫谱,他王家目不识丁,硬说是《辟邪剑谱》,天下居然有这等大笑话。” 岳夫人道:“王老爷子,这本谱儿,给我瞧瞧成不成?”王元霸道:“岳夫人请看。”将曲谱递了过去。岳夫人翻了几页,也不明所以,说道:“琴谱箫谱我是不懂,剑谱却曾见过一些,这部册子却不像是剑谱。王老爷子,府上可有什么人会奏琴吹箫?不妨请他来看看,便知端的。” 王元霸心下犹豫,只怕这真是琴谱箫谱,这个人可丢得够瞧的,一时沉吟不答。王家驹却是个草包,大声道:“爷爷,咱们账房里的易师爷会吹箫,去叫他来瞧瞧便是。这明明是《辟邪剑谱》,怎么会是什么琴谱箫谱?”王元霸道:“武学秘笈的种类极多,有人为了守秘,怕人偷窥,故意将武功图谱写成曲谱模样,那也是有的。这并不足为奇。” 岳夫人道:“府上既有一位师爷会得吹箫,那么这到底是剑谱,还是箫谱,请他来一看便知。”王元霸无奈,只得命王家驹去请易师爷来。 那易师爷是个瘦瘦小小、五十来岁的汉子,颏下留着一部稀稀疏疏的胡子,衣履甚是整洁。王元霸道:“易师爷,请你瞧瞧,这是不是寻常的琴谱箫谱?” 易师爷打开琴谱,看了几页,摇头道:“这个,晚生可不大憧了。”再看到后面的箫谱时,双目登时一亮,口中低声哼了起来,左手两根手指不住在桌上轻打节拍。哼了一会,却又摇头,道:“不对,不对!”跟着又哼了下去,突然之间,声音拔高,忽又变哑,皱起了眉头,道:“世上绝无此事,这个……这个……晚生实在难以明白。” 王元霸脸有喜色,问道:“这部书中是否大有可疑之处?是否与寻常箫谱大不相同?” 易师爷指着箫谱,说道:“东翁请看,此处宫调,突转变徵,实在大违乐理,而且箫中也吹不出来。这里忽然又转为角调,再转羽调,那也是从所未见的曲调。洞箫之中,无论如何是奏不出这等曲子的。” 令狐冲冷笑道:“是你不会吹,未见得别人也不会吹奏!” 易师爷点头道:“那也说得是,不过世上如果当真有人能吹奏这样的调子,晚生佩服得五体投地,佩服得五体投地!除非是……除非是东城……” 王元霸打断他话头,问道:“你说这不是寻常的箫谱?其中有些调子,压根儿没法在箫中吹奏出来?” 易师爷点头道:“是啊,大非寻常,大非寻常,晚生是决计吹不出。除非是东城……” 岳夫人问道:“东城有哪一位名师高手,能够吹这曲谱?” 易师爷道:“这个……晚生可也不能担保,只是……只是东城的绿竹翁,他既会抚琴,又会吹箫,或许能吹得出也不一定。他吹奏的洞箫,可比晚生要高明得多,实在是高明得太多,不可同日而语,不可同日而语!” 王元霸道:“既然不是寻常箫谱,这中间当然大有文章了。” 王伯奋在旁一直静听不语,忽然插口道:“爹,郑州八卦刀的那套四门六合刀法,不也是记在一部曲谱之中么?” 王元霸一怔,随即会意,便知儿子是在信口开河,郑州八卦刀的掌门人莫星与洛阳金刀王家是数代姻亲,他八卦刀门中可并没什么四门六合刀法,但料想华山派只专研剑法,别派中有没有这样一门刀法,岳不群纵然渊博,也未必能尽晓,当即点头道:“不错,不错,几年前莫亲家还提起过这件事。曲谱中记以刀法剑法,那是常有之事,一点也不足为奇。” 令狐冲冷笑道:“既然不足为奇,那么请教王老爷子,这两部曲谱中所记的剑法,却是怎么一副样子。” 王元霸长叹一声,说道:“这个……唉,我女婿既已逝世,这曲谱中的秘奥,世上除了老弟一人之外,只怕再也没第二人明白了。” 令狐冲若要辩白,原可说明一曲的来历,但这一来可牵涉重大,不得不说到衡山派莫大先生如何杀死大嵩阳手费彬,师父知道此曲与魔教长老曲洋有关,势必将之毁去,那么自己受人所托,便不能忠人之事了。当下强忍怒气,说道:“这位易师爷说道,东城有一位绿竹翁精于音律,何不拿这曲谱去请他品评一番。” 王元霸摇头道:“这绿竹翁为人古怪之极,疯疯癫癫的,这种人的话,怎能信得?” 岳夫人道:“此事终须问个水落石出,冲儿是我们弟子,平之也是我们弟子,我们不能有所偏袒,到底谁是谁非,不妨去请那位绿竹翁评评这个道理。”她不便说这是令狐冲和金刀王家的争执,而将争端的一造换作了林平之,又道:“易师爷,烦你派人用轿子去接了这位绿竹翁来如何?” 易师爷道:“这老人家脾气古怪得紧,别人有事求他,倘若他不愿过问的,便是上门磕头,也休想得他理睬,但如他要插手,便推也推不开。” 岳夫人点头道:“这倒是我辈中人,想来这位绿竹翁是武林中的前辈了。师哥,咱们可孤陋寡闻得紧。” 王元霸笑道:“那绿竹翁是个篾匠,只会编竹篮,打篾席,哪里是武林中人了?只是他弹得好琴,吹得好箫,又会画竹,很多人出钱来买他的画儿,算是个附庸风雅的老匠人,因此地方上对他倒也有几分看重。” 岳夫人道:“如此人物,来到洛阳可不能不见。王老爷子,便请劳动你大驾,咱们同去拜访一下这位风雅的篾匠如何?” 眼见岳夫人之意甚坚,王元霸不能不允,只得带同儿孙,和岳不群夫妇、令狐冲、林平之、岳灵珊等人同赴东城。
易师爷在前领路,经过几条小街,来到一条窄窄的巷子之中。巷子尽头,好大一片绿竹丛,迎风摇曳,雅致天然。 众人刚踏进巷子,便听得琴韵丁冬,有人正在抚琴,小巷中一片清凉宁静,和外面的洛阳城宛然是两个世界。岳夫人低声道:“这位绿竹翁好会享清福啊!” 便在此时,铮的一声,一根琴弦忽尔断绝,琴声也便止歇。一个苍老的声音说道:“贵客枉顾蜗居,不知有何见教。”易师爷道:“竹翁,有一本奇怪的琴谱箫谱,要请你老人家的法眼鉴定鉴定。”绿竹翁道:“有琴谱箫谱要我鉴定?嘿嘿,可太瞧得起老篾匠啦。” 易师爷还未答话,王家驹抢着朗声说道:“金刀王家王老爷子过访。”他抬了爷爷的招牌出来,料想爷爷是洛阳城中响当当的角色,一个老篾匠非立即出来迎接不可。哪知绿竹翁冷笑道:“哼,金刀银刀,不如我老篾匠的烂铁刀有用。老篾匠不去拜访王老爷,王老爷也不用来拜访老篾匠。”王家驹大怒,大声道:“爷爷,这老篾匠是个不明事理的浑人,见他作甚?咱们不如回去吧!” 岳夫人道:“既然来了,请绿竹翁瞧瞧这部琴谱箫谱,却也不妨。” 王元霸“嘿”了一声,将曲谱递给易师爷。易师爷接过,走入了绿竹丛中。 只听绿竹翁道:“好,你放下吧!”易师爷道:“请问竹翁,这真的是曲谱,还是什么武功秘诀,故意写成了曲谱模样?”绿竹翁道:“武功秘诀?亏你想得出!这当然是琴谱了。嗯……”接着只听得琴声响起,幽雅动听。 令狐冲听了片刻,记得这正是当日刘正风与曲洋
