Chapter 4 The fourth time he robbed his wife
Seeing that Xie Yanke retreated suddenly, Bei Haishi was very puzzled: "Since he was on good terms with Gang Leader Shi, why did he kill Master Mi Xiang? All kinds of strange things are hard to understand. Could it be... Could it be that he Did you realize our plot? I wonder if you have already told Master Shi?" For a moment, he couldn't help but think about it for a while, shook his head, turned around and helped Master Mi Xiang, and put his palms on the two main points of Soul Gate and Pohu on his back On top of that, the internal force is introduced. After a while, Master Mi Xiang's eyes widened, and he said in a low voice, "Thank you, Mr. Bei, for saving your life." Bei Haishi said: "Brother Mi lie down and rest, you must not be an expert in luck." Just now Xie Yanke's move "Wencheng Wuwei" is not only intended to kill Mi Xiangzhu, but also to attack Bei Haishi's killer.If Bei Haishi threw out his palm to block Mi Xiangzhu, Mi Xiangzhu would be killed immediately under the attack of two internal forces, so Bei Haishi hit his lower abdomen with his left knee first, knocking him to the back, and then Most of Xie Yanke's internal energy was dissolved, but fortunately Xie Yanke only had 10% of his internal energy left at that time, otherwise, although Bei Haishi's move was excellent, Mi Xiangzhu would not be able to save his life. Bei Haishi gently put Mi Xiangzhu on the ground, and massaged his chest and lower abdomen with his palms. Suddenly, someone cheered and shouted: "The master is here, the master is here!" Bei Haishi was overjoyed and said, "Mi Brother, you are out of danger, let me go to the leader of the gang." He hurriedly ran to the place where the voice came from, and said in his heart: "Thank God! If the leader of the gang can't be found, the gang will just disappear, and who will come to the imminent catastrophe? withstand?" He ran for less than a mile, and saw a rock with seven people sitting on it. Looking from the side, it was the leader of the gang, Shi Potian.Lord Yunxiang and the other seven people stood respectfully with their hands down in front of the rock.Bei Haishi rushed forward, at the time the sun was shining directly from the top of his head, the face of the person on the stone was very clear, but seeing his thick eyebrows, big eyes, and rectangular face, who is the leader of the stone gang?Bei Haishi exclaimed happily: "Master, how is your old man?" As soon as he uttered a word, the face of Gang Master Mishi was extremely painful, the left side of his face was faintly green, but the right side was completely flushed, as if he had been drunk.Bei Haishi has high internal energy and has become a doctor after a long illness. When he saw that something was wrong, he was taken aback and thought, "What the hell is he doing? Could it be that he is practicing a high-level internal energy? This is amazing. Well, then Xie Yanke must have passed it on to him. Oh no, we rushed up the cliff, lest we disturb his practice. This is not good." In an instant, all the doubts in my mind were cleared up: "The leader of the gang has been missing for half a year, and he can't be found anywhere. It turns out that he is quietly hiding here to practice advanced martial arts. The higher his martial arts, the more beneficial he is to the gang. It’s very good. Xie Yanke knows that helping the master’s practice is at a critical juncture, and if he is disturbed, he will be distracted, so no matter what, the superior refuses to introduce us. He is kind, but we offended him. I am really sorry In fact, he only needs to say clearly, don't I understand the festival in the middle? I have heard that Xie Yanke is arrogant and cruel, and we will rush up the cliff like this, which will make him very unhappy, so he turned his face and killed him. Look at the expression of the leader, the yin and yang in his body are attacking, I am afraid that the dragon and the tiger will not be able to gather together, if something goes wrong, they will go crazy, and Xie Yanke is not there to help, it is really extremely dangerous." At that moment, he gestured to order everyone to retreat, and he did not explain in a low voice until he was tens of feet away from the stone gang leader. Everyone suddenly realized, and they were all pleasantly surprised, and they asked: "Is the leader going crazy?" Some were even more guilty: "We rushed up the cliff recklessly, disturbing the leader's hard work, and caused a lot of trouble. .” Bei Haishi said: "Master Mi Xiang was injured by Mr. Xie, which brother will go and take care of it. I will wait by the side of the leader, maybe I can help him in an emergency. The rest of you will be waiting here, don't make any noise .If any foreign enemies come up the cliff, they must be dismissed quietly, and the leader must not be alarmed." Everyone is a big expert in martial arts, they all know that if there are foreign enemies invading and disturbing their minds while practicing internal skills, it is the most dangerous thing, even claiming that it is the case, each of them went to the dangerous places around the Motian Cliff, and separated to guard. Bei Haishi quietly returned to the leader of the Stone Gang, and saw that the muscles on his face were contorted, his whole body was twitching, he opened his mouth wide and wanted to shout, but he couldn't make a sound.Bei Haishi was shocked, he was about to step forward to rescue him, but he didn't know what kind of internal strength he practiced, there is a gap between Yin and Yang, there must be no mistake, otherwise it will only speed up the death of the opponent. But when he saw Gangzhu Shi's whole clothes had been torn to pieces by himself, his skin was covered with bloodstains, and the top of his head was filled with white mist, which couldn't condense, he thought: "He's not good at martial arts, and his internal strength is not strong, but look at the white qi on his head, The inner strength has really been cultivated to a very high level, could it be that Xie Yanke has only taught him for half a year, and he has advanced so quickly?" All of a sudden, there was a smell of scorched odor, and a puff of white smoke came out from the shirt on the right shoulder of the leader of the Stone Gang.Bei Haishi was startled, stretched out his hand to press the "Qing Leng Yuan" on his right elbow, wanting to calm him down for a moment, but unexpectedly, his fingers touched his elbow, his hand was like ice, he couldn't help shaking violently all over his body, he didn't dare to use his strength to resist, immediately Withdrawing his hands, he thought to himself: "What kind of strange inner strength is that? Why is half of the body cold to the bone, but the other half of the body is as hot as coals?" Just as he didn't pay attention to it, he suddenly saw the gang leader shrunk into a ball, rolled down from the rock, convulsed a few times, and then remained motionless. Bei Haishi exclaimed: "Guard Master, Gang Master!" He sniffed for his breath, fortunately he was still breathing, but his breath was like a thread, obviously it would stop at any moment.He frowned, screamed loudly, lifted the leader of the stone gang, and leaned against the rock. Seeing that the situation was extremely critical, he sat cross-legged beside the leader, pressed his left palm on his heart, and his right palm on his vest, and lifted Inner strength, protect his heart. Not long after, the seven people came one after another, and saw that the leader's face was suddenly red like wine, and suddenly blue as frozen, his body trembling uncontrollably, all of them were pale, their eyes were full of doubts, they all looked at Bei Haishi, but Seeing the soybean-sized beads of sweat on his forehead, his whole body trembling, it was obvious that he was exerting all his strength. After a long time, Bei Haishi slowly put down his hands, stood up, and said: "The leader is obviously practicing a high-level internal skill, and I can't decide whether it's a fire or not. I'm fortunate to help him through this moment. After a major difficulty, it is hard to predict what will happen afterwards. This matter is no small matter, please all brothers think about it together." Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, thinking: "Even you, Dr. Bei, have no idea, what else can we do?" For a moment, no one said anything. Master Mi Xiang was supported by others, leaning on a cypress tree, and said in a low voice: "Bei...Mr. Bei, what do you say, everyone will follow your orders. You...your idea is always better than ours. .” Bei Haishi glanced at Gang Leader Shi, and said: "The Four Great Sects of Kanto agreed to come to the head of the gang to worship the mountain on the Double Ninth Festival, and the time is running out. This matter is a matter of the survival, honor and disgrace of the gang, and all the brothers understand it very well. We have already figured out the background of the four major sects in the Kanto region. Soft whips, iron halberds, a ghost knife, and dozens of flying knives are not enough to embarrass the Changle gang. The matter of the master Situ is Let's do the housework by ourselves, why should they meddle in their business? It's just that it's not appropriate to publicize this matter in the Jianghu. Cough, cough... The real big thing, everyone understands, is the reward of the Knights Island The Order of Good Punishment and Evil' must be received by the guild leader in person, otherwise...otherwise everyone will not escape catastrophe." Yun Xiang said: "Mr. Bei is right. Everyone knows how the Changle Gang behaves on weekdays. Our brothers are all straightforward and don't like to follow the behavior of that hypocrite. People want to 'reward kindness', and there is nothing good to reward. When it comes to 'Punish the evil', that account will be very difficult to calculate. If there is no guild master to preside over the overall situation of this matter, I'm afraid... I'm afraid... oh..." Bei Haishi said: "Therefore, it is not too late. In my opinion, we have to invite the leader back to the main helm immediately. The... the illness in front of the leader is probably not serious. If there is auspiciousness, he can recover within ten and a half months. It would be great to get back to the original state. Otherwise, with the guild leader at the helm, even if he has not recovered, when everyone resists the foreign enemy, they will always have some peace of mind, but... But isn't it?" Everyone nodded and said: "Mr. Bei Exactly what he said." Bei Haishi said: "Since that's the case, let's make two stretchers to escort the leader of the gang and the leader of Mi Xiang back to the main rudder." Everyone cut down the branches, rubbed the bark with ropes, and formed two stretchers, and then tied the master Shi and Mi Xiang firmly to the stretchers to prevent them from slipping when they descended the cliff.Except for Bei Haishi, the seven people took turns to lift the frame and went down the Motian Cliff.
The young man practiced according to the method taught by Xie Yanke. At noon, he only felt the Large Intestine Meridian of Hand Yangming, Stomach Meridian of Foot Yangming, Small Intestine Meridian of Hand Taiyang, Bladder Meridian of Foot Taiyang, Sanjiao Meridian of Hand Shaoyang, The heat in the six meridians of the Gallbladder Meridian of Foot-Shaoyang suddenly surged, and it was hard to restrain it. At this moment, the meridians of Taiyin, Shaoyin, and Jueyin suddenly eroded like ice.Extremely hot and extremely cold, the two cannot blend together.He has practiced diligently for several years, and his skills have improved greatly. At noon on this day, apart from the two channels of Chongmai and Daimai, the meridians of the eight yin and eight yang suddenly clashed violently with each other. He couldn't hold it for more than half an hour before he fell into a coma, and has been in a daze ever since. For a while, he seemed to be roasting in a stove, sweating profusely, his lips were dry and burnt, and for a while, he seemed to have fallen into an ice cellar, and the blood in his body seemed to freeze into ice.So hot and cold again, cold and hot again, all kinds of figures flashed in front of his eyes from time to time, men and women, ugly and handsome, one after another, these people kept talking to him, but they couldn't hear a word, just wanted to He yelled loudly, but couldn't make a sound.Sometimes it was bright, sometimes dark, as if someone fed him soup and wine from time to time, sometimes sweet and delicious, sometimes spicy and pungent, but he didn't know what kind of soup it was. I don't know how much time has passed since I was so confused. One day, I suddenly felt a coolness on my forehead, and smelled a faint fragrance in my nose. I slowly opened my eyes, and the first thing I saw was a burning red candle, and the candle flame was beating slightly. , followed by a clear and soft voice whispering: "Brother Tian, you finally woke up!" The voice was full of joy. The boy turned his eyes to look where the voice came from, and saw that the speaker was a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a light green shirt, with a melon-seeded face, beautiful and charming, a pair of clear eyes staring at him, with a slight smile on the corner of her mouth , asked softly: "What is uncomfortable?" The young man was in a daze, he only remembered sitting on the rock practicing kung fu, suddenly one half of his body was cold, the other half was hot, he fainted in panic, why did this girl suddenly appear in front of him?He murmured: "I...I..." When he found himself sleeping on a soft bed covered with a quilt, he wanted to sit up, but every time he moved his body, his limbs felt like thousands of needles stabbed in pain. It was hard to bear, and I couldn't help but yelled out "ah". The girl said: "You just woke up, you can't move, thank God, this little life has been recovered." She lowered her head and kissed him lightly on the cheek, when she stood up straight she saw her face flushed. The boy didn't understand that it was a girl's shyness, but felt that she was even more indescribably beautiful, so he smiled slightly and muttered, "I...where am I?" The girl smiled sweetly, and was about to answer, when she heard footsteps outside the door, she immediately put her left index finger in front of her lips, making a silent gesture, and said in a low voice: "Someone is coming, I'm going." With a sway, he turned out of the window.The boy's eyes blurred, and he disappeared from the girl. He heard the faint sound of footsteps on the roof, and quickly went away. The young man was at a loss, thinking: "Who is she? Is she still coming to see me?" After a while, he heard footsteps coming to the door, someone coughed twice, and the door was pushed open , two people entered the room.One is an old man with a sick face, and the other is a thin man with a familiar face, as if he has seen it before. Seeing the young man staring at him with wide-open eyes, the old man immediately showed joy, took a step forward, and said, "Master, what do you think? Your complexion is much better today." The young man said, "You...you What do you call me? Where am I... am I...?" A trace of worry flashed across the old man's face, but then his face was full of joy, and he said with a smile: "The leader has been seriously ill for seven or eight days, and now he has regained his mind. Congratulations, please sleep peacefully, Master, and come back tomorrow to say hello." As he spoke, he stretched out his fingers and touched the veins on the boy's wrists for a moment, then nodded and said with a smile: "The pulse of the master is calm and thick, and there is no danger. The auspicious person and the heavenly appearance are really the blessings of my help." The young man said in astonishment: "I... I... am called a bastard, not a 'guild master'." When the old man and the skinny man heard this, they were stunned. They looked at each other and said in a low voice: "Please rest in peace, Lord." They took a few steps back, turned and left the room. The old man is Bei Haishi who started to make spring, and the skinny man is Mi Hengye, the owner of Mi Xiang.
Mi Hengye was injured by Xie Yanke's internal energy on the Motian Cliff. Fortunately, Xie Yanke had no internal energy left at that time, and Bei Haishi rescued him in time, and he returned to the head of the Changle Gang to recuperate for a few days, and he gradually recovered. Thinking of the famous name of the first life, Xie Yanke was able to capture it in one move, and he was very depressed for days. Bei Haishi persuaded: "Brother Mi Xian, it's because we acted recklessly in this matter, now that I think about it, I hope that Xie Yanke subdued all nine of us at that time, so that we wouldn't offend the guild leader. It made him go crazy. The gang leader has been in a coma. Whether he will recover or not is hard to say. Even if he recovers, he will not be able to practice this miraculous internal skill of yin and yang. What if there is something wrong with him, alas, Mi My dear brother, among the nine of us, you are the least guilty. Although you also climbed Motianya, you lost your hand before meeting the leader." Mi Hengye said: "What's the difference? If the leader has No matter what happens, everyone is in great trouble, and there is no distinction between minor crimes and serious crimes." On the evening of the eighth day, Bei Haishi and Mi Hengye went to the chief's bedroom to visit the sick, and they were very pleased to see that the chief's eyes could see and speak.Bei Haishi pressed his pulse, feeling calm and thick, a strong internal force wanted to flick his fingers away, and he let go immediately, just in the midst of joy, he suddenly said something inexplicable, saying that he was not a gang leader, but a "dog bastard" ".The two of Beimi turned pale in shock, they didn't dare to say anything, and immediately withdrew. When he got outside the room, Mi Hengye asked in a low voice: "How?" Bei Haishi pondered for a while, and said: "The leader's mind is not clear at the moment, but it is better than being unconscious. Brother Yu will do his best to heal the leader, and in time, he will surely recover " After a pause, he said again: "It's just that the incident happened as soon as it was said, and the ghost disappeared, but the gang leader didn't know when he would be able to recover." After a while, he said: "As long as the gang boss is here, the sky will fall. Someone will take the responsibility." Patting Mi Hengye's shoulder lightly, he said with a smile, "Brother Mi Xian, don't worry, I'll take care of everything and make proper arrangements."
Seeing the two of them leaving the room, the young man looked around the room in a daze, and saw that he was sleeping on a huge bed, with a vermilion lacquer desk in front of the bed, two chairs beside the table, and brocade mats on it.The room is decorated with colorful flowers everywhere, embroidered quilts and tents, and the fragrance is wafting, but I feel that I am in a fragrant and soft fairy cave, my eyes are dazzled, and I can see that there is nothing I can recognize.He sighed and thought, "I'm probably dreaming." But thinking of the soft-spoken and shy appearance of the girl in green shirt just now, I can clearly remember even the beautiful eyebrows and green temples. The window she jumped out of was still ajar, but it didn't look like a dream.He stretched out his right hand and wanted to touch his head, but he only raised his hand lightly, and his whole body was in severe pain like thousands of needles pricking him. He couldn't help crying out "Ouch". Suddenly, someone in the corner of the room yawned and said, "Master, you're awake..." It was also a female voice, as if she had just woken up from a dream. Suddenly, she exclaimed "Ah", Said: "You... are you awake?" A girl in yellow shirt jumped out from the corner of the room and rushed to his bed. When the boy was young, he still said that the girl who had jumped out of the window had come back again. He was overjoyed, and when he looked closely, he saw that the girl was wearing a light yellow jacket. The color of the clothes was different, and her appearance was also very different. Her face was slightly changed. Round, wide-open eyes, although not as bright as the girl in green shirt, but there is more tenderness in the expression, but it is also charming and gratifying.It was the first time in the boy's life that he spoke face to face with two girls of his age, and he couldn't tell the subtle difference between them.She said in surprise and joy: "Master, are you awake?" The boy said: "I woke up, I... am I dreaming now?" The girl giggled, and said: "I'm afraid you're still dreaming, maybe." After she smiled, she immediately restrained her smile, with an awe-inspiring look, and asked, "Young master, what do you want?" The young man wondered: "What do you call me? What young...young master?" The girl's brows were filled with anger, and she said, "I told you before that we are low-minded people. If we don't call you young master, what else can we call you?" ?” The young man muttered to himself: “One called me to help...what a 'leader', and the other called me 'Master', who am I? Why am I here?" The young girl looked mild and said, "Master, you haven't recovered yet, so don't talk about it. Would you like to eat some bird's nest?" The boy said: "Bird's nest?" He didn't know what a bird's nest was, but he felt hungry, so he nodded. The girl went to the next room, and soon came in with a tray, on which was a blue and white porcelain bowl, steaming hot and emitting a sweet aroma.As soon as the boy smelled it, he couldn't help but salivate, and suddenly there was a gurgling sound.The girl smiled slightly and said: "For seven or eight days, I only drink ginseng soup to hang myself, but I am really hungry." She brought the tray in front of him. The boy looked at it by the candlelight, and saw that it was a white bowl of porridge that was not like porridge, with some dried rose petals floating on it, exuding a slight fragrance, and asked, "Is this good food for me?" The girl smiled and said, "Yes, are you being polite?" The boy thought to himself, "I don't know how much it costs for such a good thing. I don't have any money, so I'd better explain it first." I don't have any money, but... I don't have any money for you." The girl was startled, then couldn't help but chuckle, and said: "After this serious illness, my personality hasn't changed at all. You're so talkative. If you're hungry, eat quickly." As he spoke, he moved the tray closer. The young man was overjoyed and asked, "I don't need to pay for eating?" Seeing that he was still joking, the young girl got a little bored, and said with a serious face: "You don't need to pay, do you want to eat or not?" The boy hurriedly said, "I'll eat, I'll eat!" He stretched out his hand to get the spoon in the plate, he just raised his right hand, his whole body was stabbed immediately, he snorted twice, he gritted his teeth, slowly lifted his hand, but couldn't stop trembling. The girl asked with a cold face: "Master, are you in real pain or fake pain?" The boy wondered: "Of course it is real pain, why do you pretend to be?" The girl said: "Okay, look at your serious illness. For the sake of being half dead, I will make an exception and feed you again. If you are naughty and naughty, I will ignore you again." The boy asked: "What is naughty and naughty?" The girl's face turned red slightly, she gave him a look, "hum", picked up the spoon, put a spoonful of bird's nest in the bowl, and fed it to his mouth. The young man was immediately dumbfounded, he didn't expect there to be such a good person in the world, he opened his mouth and ate this spoonful of bird's nest, it was really sweet and fragrant, it was indescribably beneficial after eating it. The girl didn't say a word, and fed him three spoonfuls one after another, but stood far away from the bed, stretching out her arms to feed him, lest he would suddenly act indecently. The boy licked his lips after eating, and said: "It's delicious, it's delicious! Oh, thank you so much." The girl sneered and said, "Don't try to trick me! A bird's nest is just a bird's nest. You have eaten thousands of bowls, when did you praise 'delicious' again?" The young man was at a loss, thinking: "When have I eaten this kind of thing?" Asked: "This... this is it Is it bird's nest?" The girl hummed and said, "You really know how to pretend to be stupid." When she said this, she took a step back at the same time, her face full of guard. The young man saw that she was wearing a light yellow short jacket and trousers, with buns on her hair, she had just woken up from a new sleep, her hair was quite fluffy, her feet were not wearing socks, and Xue Nei was stepping barefoot in a pair of embroidered slippers, which she had never seen in her life. In a beautiful scene that I have never seen before, my mother always wears socks on her feet, but she does not allow herself to enter her room, so she praised: "You...your feet are so beautiful!" The girl blushed slightly, and then showed anger. She put the porcelain bowl on the table heavily, turned around, picked up the mat, thin quilt and pillow spread in the corner of the room, and walked towards the door . 那少年心下惶恐,问道:“你……你去哪里?你不睬我了么?”语气中颇有哀恳之意。那少女沉着脸道:“你病得死去活来,刚知了点人事,嘴里便又不干不净起来啦。我又能到哪里去了?你是主子,我们低三下四之人,怎说得上睬不睬的?”说着径自出门去了。 那少年见她发怒而去,不知如何得罪了她,心想:“一个姑娘跳窗走了,一个姑娘从门中走了,她们说的话我一句也不懂。唉,真不知道是怎么回事。”他守着不求人的宗旨,也就不求她别去,正自怔怔出神,听得脚步声细碎,那少女又走进房来,脸上犹带怒色,手中捧着脸盆。那少年心中欢喜,见她将脸盆放在桌上,从脸盆中提出一块热腾腾的面巾来,绞得干了,递到那少年面前,冷冰冰地道:“擦面吧!” 那少年道:“是,是!”忙伸手去接,双手一动,登时全身刺痛,他咬紧牙关,伸手接了过来,欲待擦面,却双手发颤,那面巾离脸尺许,说什么也凑不过去。 那少女将信将疑,冷笑道:“装得真像。”接过面巾,说道:“要我给你擦面,那也可以。可是你若伸手胡闹,只要碰到我一根头发,我便永远不走进房里来了。”那少年道:“我不敢,姑娘,你不用给我擦面。这块布雪白雪白的,我的脸脏得很,别弄脏了这布。” 那少女听他语音低沉,咬字吐声也与以前颇有不同,所说的话更不伦不类,不禁起疑:“莫非他这场大病当真伤了脑子。听贝先生他们谈论,说他练功时走火入魔,损伤了五脏六腑,性命能不能保也难说得很。否则说话怎么总这般颠三倒四的?”便问:“少爷,你记得我的名字么?” 那少年道:“你从来没跟我说过,我不知道你叫什么?”又笑了笑道:“我不叫少爷,叫做狗杂种,我娘是这么叫的。老伯伯说这是骂人的话,不好听。你叫什么?” 那少女越听越皱紧眉头,心道:“瞧他说话模样,全没轻佻玩笑之意,看来他当真糊涂啦。”不由得心下难过,问道:“少爷,你真的不认得我了?不认得我侍剑了?”那少年道:“你叫侍剑么?好,以后我叫你侍剑……不,侍剑姊姊。我妈说,女人年纪比我大得多的,叫她阿婆、阿姨,和我差不多的,叫她姊姊。”侍剑头一低,突然眼泪滚了出来,泣道:“少爷,你……你不是装假骗我,真的忘了我么?” 那少年摇头道:“你说的话我不明白。侍剑姊姊,你为什么哭了?为什么不高兴了?是我得罪了你么?我妈妈不高兴时便打我骂我,你也打我骂我好了。” 侍剑更加心酸,慢慢拿起那块面巾,替他擦面,低声道:“我是你的丫环,怎能打你骂你?少爷,但盼老天爷保佑你的病快快好了。要是你当真什么都忘了,那可怎么办啦?” 擦完了面,那少年见雪白的面巾上倒也不怎么脏,他可不知自己昏迷之际,侍剑每天都给他擦几次脸,不住口地连声称谢。 侍剑低声问道:“少爷,你忘了我的名字,其他的事情可还记得么?比如说,你是什么帮的帮主?”那少年摇了摇头道:“我不是什么帮主,老伯伯教我练功夫,突然之间,我半边身子热得发滚,半边身子却又冷得不得了,我……我……难过得抵受不住,便晕了过去。侍剑姊姊,我怎么到了这里?是你带我来的么?”侍剑心中又是一酸,寻思:“这么说来,他……他当真什么都记不得了。” 那少年又问:“老伯伯呢?他教我照泥人儿身上的线路练功,怎么会练到全身发滚又发冷,我想问问他。” 侍剑听他说到“泥人儿”,心念一动,七天前为他换衣之时,从他怀中跌了一只木盒出来,好奇心起,曾打开来瞧瞧,见是一十八个裸体的男形泥人。她一见之下,脸就红了,素知这位少主风流成性,极不正经,这些不穿衣衫的泥人儿决计不是什么好东西,当即合上盒盖,藏入抽屉,这时心想:“我把这些泥人儿给他瞧瞧,说不定能助他记起走火入魔之前的事情。”拉开抽屉,取了那盒子出来,道:“是这些泥人儿么?” 那少年喜道:“是啊,泥人儿在这里。老伯伯呢?老伯伯到哪里去了?”侍剑道:“哪一个老伯伯?”那少年道:“老伯伯便是老伯伯了。他名叫摩天居士。” 侍剑于武林中的成名人物极少知闻,从来没听见过摩天居士谢烟客的名头,说道:“你醒转了就好,从前的事一时记不起,也没什么。天还没亮,你好好再睡一会儿。唉,其实从前的事什么都!己不起,说不定还更好些呢!”说着给他拢了拢被子,拿起托盘,便要出房。 那少年问道:“侍剑姊姊,为什么我记不起从前的事还更好些?” 侍剑道:“你从前所做的事……”说了这半句话,突然住口,转头急步出房而去。
那少年心下茫然,只觉种种事情全都无法索解,耳听得屋外笃笃笃地敲着竹梆,跟着当当当锣声三响,他也不知这是敲更,只想:“黑蒙蒙半夜里,竟还有人打竹梆、打锣玩儿。”突然之间,右手食指的商阳穴上一热,一股热气沿着手指、手腕、手臂直走上来。那少年一惊,暗叫:“不好了!”跟着左足足心的涌泉穴中寒冷如冰。 这寒热交攻之苦他已经历多次,知道每次发作都势不可挡,疼痛到了极处,便会神志不觉。以往几次都在迷迷糊糊之中发作,这次却是清醒之中突然来袭,更加惊心动魄。只觉一股热气、一股寒气分从左右上下,慢慢汇到心肺之间。 那少年暗想:“这一回我定要死了!”过去寒热两气不是汇于小腹,便聚于脊梁,这次竟向心肺要害间聚集,却如何抵受得住?他知情势不妙,强行挣扎,坐起身来,想要盘膝坐好,一双腿却无论如何弯不拢来,极度难当之际,忽然心想:“老伯伯当年练这功夫,难道也吃过这般苦头?将两只麻雀儿放在掌心中令它们飞不走,也并不当真好玩。早知如此辛苦,这功夫我就不练啦。” 忽听得窗外有个男子声音低声道:“启禀帮主,属下豹捷堂展飞,有机密大事禀报。” 那少年半点声息也发不出来,过了半晌,见窗子缓缓开了,人影一闪,跃进一个身披斑衣的汉子。这人抢近前来,见那少年坐在床上,不由得一惊,眼前情景大出他意料之外,急退了两步。 这时那少年体内寒热内息正在心肺之间交互激荡,心跳剧烈,只觉随时都能心停而死,但极度疼痛之际,神志却异乎寻常的清明,听得这斑衣汉子自报姓名为豹捷堂展飞,眼见他越窗进来,不知他要干什么,只得睁大了眼凝视着他。 展飞见那少年并无动静,低声道:“帮主,听说你老人家练功走火,身子不适,现下可大好了?”那少年身子颤动了几下,说不出话。展飞脸现喜色,又道:“帮主,你眼下未曾复原,不能动弹,是不是?” 他说话虽轻,但侍剑在隔房已听到房中异声,走了进来,见展飞脸上露出狰狞凶恶的神色,惊道:“你干什么?不经传呼,擅自来到帮主房中,想犯匕作乱么?” 展飞身形一晃,突然抢到侍剑身畔,右肘在她腰间一撞,右指又在她肩头加上了一指。侍剑登时给他封住了穴道,斜倚在一张椅上,动弹不得。展飞练的是外家功夫,点人穴道只能制人手足,却不能令人说不得话,当下取出一块帕子,塞入她口中。侍剑心下惊惶,知他意欲不利帮主,却没法唤人来救。 展飞对帮主仍极忌惮,提掌作势,低声道:“我这铁沙掌功夫,一掌打死你这小丫头,想也不难!”呼的一掌,向侍剑天灵盖击去,心想:“这小子倘若武功未失,定会出手相救。”掌声虽响,却不含劲力,手掌离侍剑头顶不到半尺,见帮主仍坐着不动,心中一喜,立即收掌,转头向那少年狞笑道:“小淫贼,你生平作恶多端,今日却死在我的手里。”向床前走近两步,低声道:“你此刻无力杭御,我下手杀你,非英雄好汉行径。可是老子跟你仇深似海,已说不上讲什么江湖规矩。你若懂江湖义气,也不会来抢我老婆了!” 那少年和侍剑身子虽不能动,这几句话却听得清清楚楚。那少年心想:“他为什么跟我仇深似海,我又怎么抢他老婆?”侍剑却想:“少爷不知欠下了多少风流孽债,今日终于遭到报应。唉,这人真的要杀死少爷了。”心下惶急,极力挣扎,但手足酸软,一倾侧间,砰的一声,倒在地下。 展飞恶狠狠地道:“我老婆失身下你,哼,你只道我闭了眼睛做王八,半点不知?町是以前虽然知道,却也奈何你不得,只有忍气低声,哑子吃黄连,有苦说不出。哪想到老天有眼,你这小淫贼作恶多端,终于落入我手里。”说着双足摆定马步,吸气运功,右臂格格作响,呼的一掌拍出,正击中那少年心口。 展飞是长乐帮外五堂中豹捷堂香主,他这铁沙掌已有二十余年深厚功力,实非泛泛,这一掌使足了十成力,正打在那少年两乳之间的膻中穴上。但听得喀喇一声响,展飞右臂折断,身子向后直飞出去,撞破窗格,摔出房外,登时全身气闭,辇了过去。 房外是座花园,园中有人巡逻。这一晚轮到豹捷堂的帮众当值,因此展飞能进入帮主的内寝。他破窗而出,摔人玫瑰花丛,压断了不少枝干,登时惊动了巡逻的帮众,便有人提着火把抢过来,见展飞一动不动地躺在地下,不知死活,只道有强敌侵入帮主房中。那人大惊之下,当即吹起竹哨报驚,同时拔出单刀,探头从窗中向屋内望去,见房内漆黑一团,更没半点声息,左手忙举火把去照,右手舞动单刀护住面门。从刀光的缝隙中望过去,只见帮主盘膝坐在床上,床前滚倒了一个女子,似是帮主的侍女,此外更无别人。 便在此时,听到了示警哨声的帮众先后赶到。 虎猛堂香主邱山风手执铁锏,大声叫道:“帮主,你老人家安好么?”揭帷走进屋内,见帮主全身不住地颤动,突然间“哇”地一声,张口喷出无数紫血,足足有数碗之多。 邱山风向旁急闪,才避开了这股腥气甚烈的紫血,正惊疑间,见帮主已跨下床来,扶起地下侍女,说道:“侍剑姊姊,他……他伤到了你吗?”跟着掏出了她口中塞着的帕子。侍剑急呼了一口气,道:“少爷,你……你可给他打伤了,你觉得怎……怎样?”惊惶之下,话也说不清楚了。那少年微笑道:“他打了我一掌,我反而舒服之极。” 只听得门外脚步声响,不少人奔到。贝海石、米横野等快步进房,肴些人身份较低,只在门外守候。贝海石抢上前来,问那少年道:“帮主,刺客惊动你了吗?” 那少年茫然道:“什么刺客?我没瞧见啊。” 这时已有帮中好手救醒了展飞,扶进房来。展飞知道本帮帮规于犯上作乱的叛徒惩罚最严,往往剥光了衣衫,绑在后山“刑台石”上,任由地下虫蚁咬啮,天空兀鹰啄食,折磨八九日方死。他适才倾尽全力的一击没打死帮主,反让他以浑厚内力反弹出来,右臂既断,又受了内伤,只盼速死,却又给人扶进房来,当下凝聚一口内息,只要听得帮主说一声“送刑台石受长乐天刑”,立时便举头往墙上撞去。 贝海石问道:“刺客是从窗中进来的么?”那少年道:“我迷迷糊糊的,身上难受得要命,只道此番心跳定要跳死我了。似乎没人进来过啊。”展飞大是奇怪:“难道他当真神志未清,不知是我打他么?可是这个了头却知是我下的手,她就会吐露真相了。” 果然贝海石伸手在侍剑腰间和肩头捏了几下,解开她穴道,问道:“是谁封了你的穴道?”侍剑指着展飞,说道:“是他!”贝海石眼望展飞,皱起了眉头。 展飞冷笑一声,正想痛骂几句才死,忽听得帮主说道:“是我……是我叫他干的。”侍剑和展飞都几乎不相信自己的耳朵,两人怔怔地瞧着那少年。展飞忙道:“是我得罪了帮主,帮主一掌将我击出窗外。帮主,属下展飞请罪。”说着躬身行礼。 那少年于种种事情全不了然,但已体会出情势严重,各人对自己极为尊敬,若知展飞制住了侍剑,又曾发掌击打自己,定会对他大大不利,当即随口撒了句谎,意欲帮他个忙。至于为什么要为他隐瞒,却说不出原因,只盼他别为这事而受惩罚。 他只隐约觉得,展飞击打自己乃激于一股极大的怨愤。当时他体内寒热交攻,难过之极,展飞这一掌正好打在他膻中穴上。那膻中穴乃人身气海,展飞掌力奇劲,时刻又凑得极巧,一掌击到,刚好将他八阴经脉与八阳经脉中所练成的阴阳劲力打成一片,水乳交融,再无寒息和炎息之分。他内力突然之间增强,以至将展飞震出窗外,他于此全然不知,但觉体内彻骨之寒变成一片清凉,如烤如焙的炎热化成融融阳和,四肢百骸间说不出的舒服,又过半晌,连清凉、暖和之感也已不觉,只全身精力弥漫,忍不住要大叫大喊。当虎猛堂香主邱山风进房之时,他一口喷出了体内郁积的淤血,登时神清气爽,不但体力旺盛,连脑子也加倍灵敏起来。 贝海石等见侍剑衣衫不整,头发蓬乱,神情惶急,心下都已了然,知道帮主向来好色贪淫,定是大病稍有转机,便起邪念,意图对她非礼,适逢展飞在外巡视,帮主便将他呼了进来,命他点了侍剑穴道,不知展飞如何又得罪了帮主,以致为他击出窗外,多半是展飞又奉命剥光侍剑的衣服,行动却稍有迟疑。只展飞武功远较帮主为强,所谓“给他击出窗外”,也必是展飞装腔作势,想平息他怒气,十之八九,还是自行借势蹿出去的。众人见展飞伤势不轻,头脸手臂又为玫瑰花丛刺得斑斑血痕,均有狐悲之意,只碍于帮主脸面,谁也不敢对展飞稍示慰问。 众人既这么想,无人敢再提刺客之事。虎猛堂香主邱山风想起自己阻了帮主兴头,有展飞的例子在前,帮主说不定立时便会反脸怪责,做人以识世务为先,当即躬身说道:“帮主休息,属下告退。”余人纷纷告辞。 贝海石见帮主脸上神色怪异,终是关心他身子,伸手出去,说道:“我再搭搭帮主的脉搏。”那少年提起手来,任他搭脉。贝海石三根手指按到了那少年手腕之上,蓦地里手臂剧震,半边身子一麻,三根手指竟给他脉搏震了下来。 贝海石大吃一惊,脸现喜色,大声道:“恭喜帮主,贺喜帮主,这盖世神功,终究练成了。”那少年奠名其妙,问道:“什……什么盖世神功?”贝海石料想他不愿旁人知晓,不敢再提,说道:“是,是属下胡说八道,帮主请勿见怪。”微微躬身,出房而去。
