Chapter 10 Chapter Nine Changing Nest Luanfeng

Emperor Baoding issued a decree to exempt the salt tax, and the people of Dali were grateful.There is not much salt produced in Yunnan, and only nine wells such as Baijing, Heijing, and Yunlong produce salt in the whole country. They have to buy salt from central Sichuan every year.Emperor Baoding knew that once the salt tax was exempted, the monk with yellow eyebrows would try to save Duan Yu in return.He has always admired Huangmei Monk's wit and martial arts, and he also knows that his two disciples are not weak in martial arts, so if the master and apprentice come out together, they will surely succeed.

Unexpectedly, after waiting for a day and a night, there was no news at all, and Ba Tianshi was about to be ordered to find out what happened, but Ba Tianshi, Hua Situ and Fan Sima all disappeared.Emperor Baoding thought to himself: "Could it be that Crown Prince Yanqing is really so powerful, the three senior brothers Huangmei, his mentor and his disciples, including my three princes in the imperial court, all fell into the Valley of Myriad Tribulations?" Wan Li and the other four guards, together with Princess Dao Baifeng of Zhennan, headed for the Valley of Myriad Tribulations.Dao Baifeng loves his son eagerly, and begs Emperor Baoding to bring the imperial army with him, and simply wipes out the Valley of Ten Thousand Calamities in one fell swoop.Emperor Baoding said: "Until the last moment, we should still act in accordance with the rules of the world. Duan's ancestors' precepts for hundreds of years must not be violated."

A group of people came to the entrance of the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations, and Yun Zhonghe greeted them with a smile, bowed deeply, and said: "We, the 'Four Evils in the World' and Lord Zhonggu, expected that Dajia would come again today, and I have been waiting here for a long time. If your Excellency has armored horses and horses, we will run away and take the son and daughter of Zhennan King with us. If you follow the rules of the world and make friends with martial arts, please enter the hall to serve tea." Emperor Baoding saw that the other party was very calm, obviously confident, unlike the day before yesterday when he came up to a big fight, he was even more frightened, he bowed back, and said: "Very good!" Yun Zhonghe led the way, and the group of people Come to the lobby.

Emperor Baoding stepped into the door of the hall, but he saw that the hall was full of heroes, including Ye Erniang and South Sea Crocodile God, but he did not see Prince Yanqing, and he was secretly on guard.Yun Zhonghe said loudly: "Mr. Duan, the head of the Tiannan Duan family, is here." He didn't say "His Majesty the Emperor of Dali", but called him by his name in the martial arts, pointing out that everything should be done according to the rules of the world. Duan Zhengming is not to mention the king of a country, but in terms of his prestige and status in the martial arts world, he is also a master master respected by everyone. When the heroes heard this, they all stood up immediately.But the God of Crocodile of the South China Sea was still sitting fiercely, and said: "Who am I? It turns out to be the emperor's old man. How are you?" Zhong Wanchou took a few steps forward and said: "Zhong Wanchou has not overcome the distance. Welcome, please complain." Emperor Baoding said, "It's easy to say, easy to say!"

Everyone sits down as guest and host.Since they acted according to the rules of the world, Duan Zhengchun, his wife and Gao Shengtai did not abide by the etiquette of emperors and ministers, and sat at the head of Emperor Baoding.Chu Wanli and four others stood behind Baoding Emperor.The servant in the valley offered tea.When Emperor Baoding saw that the master and apprentice of the Huangmei monk and Ba Tianshi were not in the hall, he was thinking about how to ask each other.Zhong Wanchou said: "Master Duan is here again, I will be very proud of you. It is rare that many good friends are here at the same time. I will introduce Master Duan." Then he told about the heroes in the hall. Some of them are heroes from the Central Plains in the north, and the rest are famous figures in Dali martial arts, including Xin Shuangqing, Zuo Zimu, Ma Wude and others.Most of the Emperor Baoding had never seen him, but he had heard his name.These heroes from all corners of the world greeted Emperor Baoding one by one.Some are more respectful, some are deliberately arrogant, and some meet as martial arts juniors.

Zhong Wanchou said: "It's rare for Teacher Duan to come here. You might as well hang around for a few more days, so that all brothers can ask for your help." Today I came here to plead for mercy, and secondly to plead guilty. I also hope that Valley Master Zhong will look down on me, forgive me for my ignorance, and I am very grateful." When the group of heroes heard this, they all admired secretly: "I have heard for a long time that Emperor Duan of Dali received his comrades with martial arts rules, and his reputation is indeed well-deserved. This place is under the rule of Dali Kingdom. He only needs to send hundreds of soldiers and horses. He can take people immediately, but he unexpectedly Come here in person and ask for a good word."

Zhong Wanchou laughed, but did not answer.Ma Wude said: "It turns out that Mr. Duan offended Lord Zhonggu. Mr. Duan went to Pu'er Shexia this time, and went to visit Wuliang Mountain with his brothers. I didn't take good care of me, so many things happened. I also want to ask for a copy." Affection." South Sea Crocodile God suddenly shouted: "Who wants you to talk about my apprentice?" Gao Shengtai said coldly: "Mr. Duan is your master, you have kowtowed and paid homage to your master, do you want to renege on your debt? "South Sea Crocodile God blushed and scolded: "Your grandma, I'm not bad. I killed this nominal master today. I accidentally worshiped this kid as my teacher, and I'm so ugly." Everyone didn't know. Just here, I am very surprised.

Dao Baifeng said: "Master Zhong Gu, whether to let him go or not depends on your words." Zhong Wanchou said with a smile: "Let him go, let him go, let him go! Naturally let him go, why should I keep your son?" Yun Zhonghe interjected: " Mr. Duan is handsome and handsome, and Mrs. Zhong'Qiaoyaocha' is also a beautiful woman. If you leave Mr. Duan in the valley, wouldn't that lead wolves into the house and raise tigers? Naturally, Master Zhong wants to let him go. When Qunhao heard this, they were all stunned, they all felt that this "extremely vicious" Yun Zhonghe spoke recklessly, and he didn't take Zhong Wanchou seriously at all, the name of "extremely vicious" was true.Zhong Wanchou was furious, turned his head and said: "Brother Yun, after this matter is over, I still need to learn from you how to do it." Yun Zhonghe said: "Wonderful, wonderful! I have long wanted to kill her husband and take his wife , seek their wealth and live in their valleys."

All the heroes are pale.Xin Shuangqing, the cave master of Wuliang Cave, said: "Heroes in the Jianghu are not dead. No matter how skilled you are in the 'Four Evils', you will eventually be able to escape justice." Mother didn't offend you, how did you get me involved?" Zuo Zimu thought about how she kidnapped his own child, and he still had a lingering fear in his heart, so he sneaked a sideways glance at her.Erniang Ye chuckled, and said, "Mr. Zuo, has your young master grown fatter for nothing?" Zuo Zimu didn't dare not answer, and said in a low voice, "Last time he suffered from the wind and cold, so far he has suffered from a cold. I’m still sick.” Erniang Ye laughed and said, “Ah, that’s all my fault. I’ll look back at Shan Shan, my good grandson.” Zuo Zimu was shocked, and hurriedly said, “Don’t dare to work too hard.”

Emperor Baoding pondered: "The 'Four Evils' did evil things and had many grievances. Obviously, these charlatans are not their helpers, so things are much easier to handle. After Yu'er is rescued, we might as well wait for the opportunity to eliminate the great harm. The 'Four Evils' Although the first Prince Yanqing is a member of the Duan sect, it is inconvenient for me to do it myself, but he will eventually be truly 'full of evil'." Dao Baifeng was confused by the audience, and changed the topic, stood up suddenly, and said: "Since Valley Master Zhong promised to return the son, please call him out, so that my mother and son can meet again."

Zhong Wanchou also stood up, and said: "Yes!" He turned his head suddenly, gave Duan Zhengchun a hard look, and sighed: "Duan Zhengchun, you already have such a good wife and son, isn't that enough? Today Your reputation has been ruined, you have done it yourself, you have to blame me for everything." When Duan Zhengchun heard Zhong Wanchou promised to return his son, he expected that the matter would never be settled so easily, and the other party must have arranged some tricks and tricks. Hearing what he said, he immediately stood up, walked in front of him, and said: "Master Zhong, you If you intend to harm others, Duan Zhengchun has a way to teach you to regret it for the rest of your life." Zhong Wanchou saw that he was handsome, majestic, noble and noble, and he was far inferior to him. Ashamed of himself, he was filled with jealousy and said loudly: "This is the case, Zhong Wanchou's family will be ruined and his body will be broken into pieces." , and I will fight with you to the end. If you want a son, come with me!" He said and strode out of the hall door.
A group of people followed Zhong Wanchou to the tree wall, and Yun Zhonghe flaunted his lightness skills and jumped over first.Duan Zhengchun thought that there is no reason to let go of what happened today, so it is better to show his prestige first, so that the other party will retreat in the face of difficulties, and he said: "Ducheng, cut down a few trees so that everyone can walk." Gu Ducheng replied. : "Yes!" He raised the steel axe, made a few clicks, and immediately cut down a big tree.Fu Sigui pushed out with both palms, and the broken tree fell aside with a rattling sound.The steel ax shone with white light, swung it one after another, and made a lot of noise. The big trees fell one by one, and five trees were cut down in a short while. Zhong Wanchou's tree wall is not easy to plant, it really took a lot of painstaking efforts back then, Gu Ducheng cut down five big trees one after another, he couldn't help being furious, but then he thought: "The Duan family in Dali is going to make a big fool of themselves today, these trivial things , I won’t bother with you.” Immediately walked in from the vacancy. Behind the tree wall, the yellow-browed monk and the green-paoed guest were both resting on an iron staff with their left hands, white air was steaming above their heads, and they were competing for internal strength.The yellow-browed monk suddenly stretched out his right hand, and used a small hammer to draw a circle on the bluestone in front of him.The green robed man thought for a while, and then dropped the iron staff with his right hand on the bluestone.Emperor Baoding stared at him, and immediately understood: "It turns out that senior brother Huang Mei was playing chess with Prince Yanqing, and at the same time competed with him in internal strength. It was a battle of wits and strength. This kind of unique game is really dangerous. He has not responded to me all this time. , It seems that this game has lasted for a day and a night, and there is still no winner or loser." Glancing at the chess game, he saw that the two were fighting a "life and death calamity". What's left is the second hand, a big piece of chess struggling to survive.The two disciples of the yellow-browed monk, Po Sui and Po Chen, fell to the ground, unable to move.It turned out that the two monks saw that the master was in danger, and they attacked the green robe guest, but they were both knocked down by his iron rod. Duan Zhengchun stepped forward to unlock the acupoints of the two of them, and shouted: "Wanli, you go and push away the boulder and let Yu'er come out." Chu Wanli and the other four agreed in unison, and stepped forward side by side. Zhong Wanchou shouted: "Wait a minute! Do you know who else is in this stone house?" Duan Zhengchun said angrily: "Master Zhong, if you use vicious means to manipulate my son, you must know that you have a wife and daughter." Zhong Wanchou sneered and said: "Hehe, yes, I, Zhong Wanchou, have a wife and a daughter. Fortunately, I don't have a son, and my son would not do that incestuous bestiality with my own daughter!" Duan Zhengchun's face was livid, and he shouted: "You What nonsense are you talking about?" Zhong Wanchou said: "Mu Wanqing is your illegitimate daughter, isn't she?" Duan Zhengchun said angrily, "Ms. Mu's background, what do you want me to do?" Zhong Wanchou said with a smile: "Haha, that may not be a trivial matter. The Duan clan of Dali is the emperor in the south of the sky, and has a great reputation in the martial arts. Heroes and heroes, everyone, open your eyes and see, Duan Zhengchun's own son and his own son Daughter, but they have incest here, and they are married like beasts!" He gestured to the South Sea Crocodile God, and the two of them stretched out their hands to push the big stone in front of the stone house. Duan Zhengchun said: "Wait a minute!" He stretched out his hand to stop him.Ye Erniang and Yun Zhonghe each threw out a palm, attacking from left and right respectively.Duan Zhengchun raised his palm to block it.Gao Shengtai leaned sideways and went to Ge Yunzhonghe's palm.Unexpectedly, the two palms of Ye Yun and the others were false moves. When the right palm flicked, the left palm pushed back at the same time, and they both hit the boulder.Although this boulder weighs a thousand catties, under the joint push of Zhong Wanchou, South Sea Crocodile God, Ye Erniang, and Yun Zhonghe, it immediately rolled aside.This move was decided by the four of them in advance, it was not true, but Duan Zhengchun was unable to stop it.In fact, Duan Zhengchun was also eager to see his son early, and did not really do anything to stop him.But seeing the big stone rolled away, a door was exposed, and it was so dark that one could not see clearly the scene inside the house. Zhong Wanchou said with a smile: "A lonely man and a widow, hiding naked in a dark room, what good things can they do? Haha, haha, everyone understands!" Amidst Zhong Wanchou's loud laughter, he saw a young man with disheveled hair, his upper body naked, and his lower body wearing only a pair of shorts, exposing his two thighs. It was Duan Yu, who was holding a woman across his arms.The woman was huddled in his arms, and she was only wearing a tight-fitting dress, revealing the white and tender skin on her arms, thighs, and vest. Emperor Baoding was ashamed.Duan Zhengchun lowered his head, not daring to lift it up.With tears in his eyes, Dao Baifeng murmured: "Injustice, injustice!" Gao Shengtai took off his robe, going to put it on Duan Yu's body.Ma Wude wanted to please the Duan brothers, so he quickly dodged to cover Duan Yu.The God of Crocodile of the South Sea shouted: "You son of a bitch, get out of here!" Zhong Wanchou laughed out loud, very complacent, suddenly stopped laughing, paused, and suddenly yelled: "Ling'er, why is it you?" When Qunhao heard his cry, they all felt terrified, and saw Zhong Wanchou rushing towards Duan Yu, grabbing the woman he was holding across his arms between his hands.At this time, everyone could already see the woman's face clearly, but seeing that she was younger than Mu Wanqing, her figure was also slender, her face still had a childish look, how could she be Mu Wanqing?It is Zhong Wanchou's biological daughter Zhong Ling.When Qunhao first arrived in the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations, Zhong Wanchou took his wife and daughter to the hall to meet the guests and show off the beauty and loveliness of the women in his family. In confusion, Duan Yu saw many people surrounding him, recognized that his uncle and parents had arrived, he hurriedly let go of Zhong Ling, let Zhong Wanchou carry him, and shouted: "Mom, uncle, daddy!" He rushed forward, held him in his arms, and asked: "Yu'er, you...what's wrong with you?" Duan Yu was at a loss, and said, "I...I don't know!" Zhong Wanchou never expected that he would harm someone but himself, how could he expect that the one Duan Yu carried out from the stone house would be his own daughter?In a daze, he put down his daughter.Zhong Ling was only wearing close-fitting shorts, and when he suddenly saw so many people, his face flushed with embarrassment.Zhong Wanchou took off his robe, wrapped her around her, and then slapped her hard, causing her left cheek to become red and swollen. He cursed, "Shameless! Who told you to stay with this little bastard?" Zhong Ling was full of grievances. , crying, how can we distinguish for a while? Zhong Wanchou suddenly thought: "Then Mu Wanqing must still be in the house, I'll call her out, let her share Ling'er's humiliation." He shouted loudly: "Ms. Mu, come out!" There was no sound in the house.Zhong Wanchou rushed in the door, the stone house was only about 10 feet long, it was clear at a glance, where is there a half person?Zhong Wanchou was so angry that his chest almost exploded, he turned over, hit his daughter again with his palm, and shouted: "I'll kill you, you stinky girl!" Suddenly, a palm stretched out from the side, and the ring finger and little finger flicked towards his wrist.Zhong Wanchou hastily withdrew his hands to dodge, seeing that it was Duan Zhengchun who was blocking him, he said angrily: "I discipline my daughter myself, what does it have to do with you?" Duan Zhengchun said with a smile: "Master Zhong Gu, you treat my child very preferentially. You are afraid that he will be lonely alone, so you actually order you to make Ai Qianjin accompany you. I am really grateful. If this is the case, Ling Ai is already my daughter." The Duan family is gone, I can't ignore it." Zhong Wanchou said angrily, "Why are you from the Duan family?" Duan Zhengchun laughed and said, "Ling Ai has been serving Duan Yu in this stone house for a long time. .Lonely man and widow, hiding naked in a dark room, what good things can they do? My son is the son of the Prince of Zhennan. Why not? Aren't you and I becoming in-laws? Haha, haha, hahaha!" Zhong Wanchou was so furious that he couldn't restrain himself, he rushed over and slapped three times in succession.Duan Zhengchun kept laughing, and he resolved them one by one. All the lords thought: "The Duan family in Dali is really powerful. I don't know what method they used to betray the daughter of Zhong Valley Master and imprison him in the stone room. Zhong Wanchou is in Dali, but he went to the Duan family for no reason. By the way, isn’t that just asking for trouble?” It turned out that this was exactly what Hua Hegen and the other three did.Hua Hegen took Zhong Ling into the tunnel with the intention of not letting her reveal the secrets of the tunnel, but after hearing the conversation between Zhong Wanchou and his wife, the three of them discussed in low voices in the tunnel, and they all felt that this matter was deeply involved and extremely urgent.As soon as Mrs. Zhong left, Ba Tianshi sneaked out immediately, performed lightness kung fu, and surveyed the exact direction and distance of the stone house, and Hua Hegen re-determined the tunnel path.Everyone stepped up digging and worked all night, until the next morning, they dug under the stone house. Hua Hegen dug into the stone house and saw Duan Yu running wildly in the small room, looking like crazy, he immediately stretched out his hand to pull him, unexpectedly Duan Yu's movement is fast and strange, but he still can't catch him.Ba Tianshi and Fan Hua went up to encircle and squeeze towards the center.The stone room is really too small, Duan Yu has nowhere to dodge, Hua Hegen grabbed his wrist, his whole body was shaken immediately, as if touching a piece of hot coal, he immediately pulled him hard, hoping to pull him into the tunnel and escape quickly.Unexpectedly, as soon as he exerted his strength, the true energy in his body surged outwards, and he couldn't help crying out "Ouch".Ba Tianshi and Fan Hua pulled Hua Hegen back and pulled hard, the three of them worked together to get rid of the evil of "North Ming Divine Art" to attract true energy.Dali Sangong's skill is much higher than that of Wuliangjian's disciples. Fortunately, he saw the opportunity very quickly and reacted quickly. Even so, the three of them were already in a cold sweat from fright, and they all said in their hearts: "Prince Yanqing's evil method is really powerful. . " Never dared to touch Duan Yu's body again. At the moment when he was unable to do anything, there was a commotion of people outside the house, hearing that Emperor Baoding and King Zhennan had arrived, Zhong Wanchou jeered loudly.Ba Tianshi had an idea: "This Zhong Wanchou is so hateful, let's play a big joke on him." He took off Zhong Ling's outer shirt, put it on for Mu Wanqing, then picked up Zhong Ling, and handed it to Duan Yu.Duan Yu took it in a daze.Hua Hegen and the other three dragged Mu Wanqing into the tunnel, closed the stone slab, where is there any trace left?
Emperor Baoding saw that his nephew was safe, he didn't expect the situation to turn out like this, he felt gratified and funny at the same time, he couldn't figure out the reason for it for a while, but he thought that the competition between the monk with yellow eyebrows and Prince Yanqing's internal strength was at a critical juncture, if there was a slight discrepancy, immediately He was in danger of his life, and immediately turned around to watch the match between the two.I saw the yellow-browed monk's forehead sweat like beans, dripping onto the chess game, but Prince Yanqing's expression remained unchanged, as if nothing had happened, obviously the victory or defeat has been judged. When Duan Yu regained his sanity, he cared about the success or failure of the chess game. He walked to the side of the two and watched the chess game. He saw that the yellow-browed monk was exhausted, and if Prince Yanqing fought another one, the yellow-browed monk would have nothing to play, so he had to admit defeat.Seeing Prince Yanqing's iron rod sticking out, he pointed at the middle of the chess game, the point he was pointing at was the key point at the moment, if this move was made, the yellow-browed monk would be hopeless, Duan Yu was in a hurry, thinking: "I will Give him a go." He stretched out his hand and grabbed the iron rod. Just as Prince Yanqing's iron staff was about to touch the "upper" Sanqi road, suddenly his palm shook, and his right arm flew out like a bow full of strength.He was quite shocked, squinting slightly, he saw that Duan Yu's thumb and index finger were pinching the head of the iron staff.Duan Yu only hoped to push the iron staff aside, so as not to let him make a move at the key point of the chess game, but the iron staff seemed to be cast in the air, it didn't move at all, if he pushes it vigorously, Prince Yanqing's internal strength will be reduced by Duan Yu Merchants pour into the body. Prince Yanqing was shocked and thought: "Old monster Xingxiu Haiding's transformation technique!" Immediately, Qi transported his dantian, thrusting through his arm, a strong force came out from the iron rod, and in a shock, Duan Yu's body was crushed. The fingers shook off the iron staff. Duan Yu only felt half body numb, and wanted to faint, he swayed a few times, stretched out his hand to hold the bluestone in front of him, and then stabilized himself.However, a small half of the mighty internal energy emitted by Prince Yanqing disappeared like a stone in the sea, he disappeared, he was horrified in his heart, it really is not a trivial matter, the iron staff hangs down, it just hits the "superior" Qiba road.Just because of Duan Yu's resistance, he couldn't send and receive his internal energy freely, the iron rod drooped, and with the rest of his strength, he stabbed down heavily naturally.Prince Yanqing yelled secretly: "Not good!" Hastily raised the iron stick, but a small dent had been poked out on the intersection of Qiba Road. A master chess player naturally pays attention to making a move without regrets, not to mention carving a stone into a scale, sinking a stone into a piece, and breaking the stone everywhere where the internal force is, how can it be counted as a game?But the seven or eight ways of "upper" position are just filling one eye by oneself.Anyone with a little understanding of chess and reasoning knows that two eyes are alive, but one eye is dead.Prince Yanqing's big piece of chess has already been made with two eyes, and he used it as a base to attack the yellow-browed monk, there is absolutely no reason to block a live eye by himself.However, since this child has fallen, even though he has nothing to do with Yi Li, he always lacks internal energy. Prince Yanqing sighed secretly: "If the chess is wrong, the whole game will be lost, is this really God's will?" He is a man of great status, and he will never argue with the yellow-browed monk over this, so he stands up and presses his hands on the bluestone rock, Watching the chess game, not moving for a long time. Most of the group of heroes have never seen this person before, seeing him with a strange expression, the group of people paid attention to him.I saw him staring at it for a while, then suddenly without saying a word, he supported his iron staff, the tip of the staff nodded to the ground, as if he was walking on stilts, and he walked far away with extremely big steps. Suddenly there was a rattling sound, and the bluestone rock shook a few times, splitting into six or seven pieces of loose stone, and cracked on the ground.The group of heroes gasped in shock, looking at each other in amazement, except for Emperor Baoding, the monk with yellow eyebrows and his apprentice, and the three villains, they all thought: "This man is not like a human, nor is a ghost like a ghost. This green-robed man who looks like a living corpse has such a martial arts skills. Wait for it." The monk with yellow eyebrows was lucky enough to win this game of chess, with his hands on his knees, he was dazed, recalling all the dangerous situations just now, his mood was still unsettled, he really didn't know why Prince Yanqing suddenly filled his own eyes in a piece of chess when he was sure of winning got one.Could it be that seeing an expert like Duan Zhengming coming, he was afraid of being besieged, so he surrendered and fled?But he also has a lot of helpers on his side, so he might not be defeated. Emperor Baoding, Duan Zhengchun, Gao Shengtai and others were also very puzzled by this incident. Fortunately, Duan Yu had been rescued, Duan's name was not damaged at all, Prince Yanqing was defeated and retreated. There is no need to investigate all the details immediately.Duan Zhengchun said with a smile to Zhong Wanchou: "Master Zhong, since Ling Ai has become my concubine, I will send someone to marry her within a few days. Foolish couples should treat them with love and kindness, as if you are your own daughter, just don't worry." Zhong Wanchou was furious, hearing Duan Zhengchun's sarcasm, he pulled out the saber from his waist with a swipe, and chopped it off on Zhong Ling's head, shouting: "I'm so mad, I'll kill this bitch first. " Suddenly, a long figure floated over, hugged Zhong Ling incomparably quickly, and then passed by like a gust of wind, already floating several feet away.With a bang, Zhong Wanchou slashed to the ground, seeing that the man holding Zhong Ling was the "vicious" Yun Zhonghe, and shouted angrily, "You...what are you doing?" Yun Zhonghe laughed and said, "You don't want this daughter yourself, even if she has been hacked to death, then give it to me."He knew that the martial arts of Emperor Baoding and the Yellow-browed Monk were probably far superior to his own, and that Duan Zhengchun and Gao Shengtai were also great figures, so he made up his mind to hold Zhong Ling and slip away. Seeing that Ba Tianshi was not there, he only needed to use lightness kung fu. , none of these people can catch up. Zhong Wanchou knew that his lightness kung fu was very good, so he jumped up and down and cursed.Emperor Baoding and others had seen him and Ba Tianshi chasing in circles a few days ago, and seeing that although he was holding Zhong Ling, his hands were still as light as nothing, so they couldn't help him. Duan Yu had an idea, and shouted: "Yue Laosan, your master is ordered to take this little girl quickly." South Sea Crocodile God was stunned, and said angrily, "Mom, what did you say?" Duan Yu said: "You have worshiped me as your teacher, and you have kowtowed your head. Do you want to blame? Is what you said fart? You must want to be the son of a turtle, a bastard!" Nanhai Crocodile God yelled angrily: "What I said Naturally it counts, so what if you are my master? I will get annoyed, and even your master will be chopped off." Duan Yu said: "It's good if you recognize it. This little girl surnamed Zhong is my wife, that is, yours. Mistress, hurry up and get it back for me. Yun Zhonghe insulting her is just insulting your mistress, you are too ashamed, you are not a hero." South Sea Crocodile God was stunned, thinking that this was reasonable, and suddenly remembered that Mu Wanqing was his wife, so why is this little girl surnamed Zhong also his wife?Asked: "How many mistresses do I have?" Duan Yu said: "Don't ask too much, that is the master's wife, and this is the junior mistress. If you can't take back your little mistress, you will be too embarrassed. Here Many good men have seen with their own eyes that you can't even beat the fourth villain Yun Zhonghe, then you will be reduced to the fifth villain, maybe the sixth villain." If the God of Crocodile of the South China Sea is ranked below Yun Zhonghe, then It was even more sad than killing his head. With a roar, he rushed towards Yun Zhonghe, shouting: "Put down my little teacher quickly!" Yun Zhonghe floated forward and shouted: "Yue Laosan is really a fool, you have been fooled!" The South Sea Crocodile God loves to think that he is great, Yun Zhonghe said in front of many people that he Being fooled by others made him even more furious, and shouted: "How could my Yue Erer be fooled by others?" He immediately chased after him with anger.The two of them, one in front of the other, turned around the col in a moment. Zhong Wanchou slashed at his daughter in a rage, but at this moment, seeing that his daughter was captured by criminals, after all, father and daughter love each other deeply, and thinking that his wife couldn't explain it when she asked about it, in desperation, he raised his knife and chased after her.
Emperor Baoding bid farewell to Qunhao immediately, and the party left the Valley of Myriad Tribulations, returned to Dali City, and came to Zhennan Palace together.Hua Hegen, Fan Hua and Ba Tianshi came out from the mansion, beside a young girl who was gorgeously attired and shining brightly, it was Mu Wanqing. Fan Hua reported to Emperor Baoding the reasons why Hua Hegen dug the tunnel, sent Zhong Ling in and rescued Mu Wanqing, etc., and everyone knew that Zhong Wanchou could not harm others, but instead harmed himself. Although the "Yin Yang He He San" medicinal property is strong, it is not a poison, Duan Yu and Mu Wanqing took some purgatives, and drank a few bowls of cold water, and it disappeared immediately. At noon, the palace hosted a banquet.Everyone happily talked about the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations at the banquet, and they all said that the yellow-browed monk and Hua Hegen contributed the most to this battle. If the yellow-browed monk hadn't restrained Duan Yanqing, he would have to discover the tunnel. Dao Baifeng suddenly said: "Brother Hua, I would like to ask you to work hard again." Hua Hegen said: "Wangfei ordered, I must obey." Dao Baifeng said: "Please send someone to block this tunnel to death " Hua Hegen was stunned, and replied: "Yes." But he didn't understand her intention.Dao Baifeng glared at Duan Zhengchun, and said: "This tunnel leads to Mrs. Zhong's room, if it is not blocked, I am afraid that a dear friend here will have to go through the tunnel every night from now on." Everyone laughed. Not long after, Mu Wanqing peeked at Duan Yu, and whenever they met his eyes, the two immediately turned their heads to avoid.She knew that she and him could no longer be a couple in this life, and when she thought of the scene of the two of them living together in the stone house these days, she felt even more sad.They only heard people talk about Zhong Ling's plan to become Duan Yu's concubine, and said that although she was captured by Yun Zhonghe, the God of Crocodile of the South China Sea and Zhong Wanchou would be able to rescue her together, and they heard Emperor Baoding order Chu Gu The four of them, Fu and Zhu, went to inquire about Zhong Ling's information after dinner and tried to protect him.The more Mu Wanqing listened, the angrier she became, she took out a small gold box from her bosom, it was the token that Mrs. Zhong asked Duan Yu to ask her father to save Zhong Ling, and she handed it to Duan Zhengchun, saying: "Baby Gan gave you !" Duan Zhengchun was stunned, and said: "What?" Mu Wanqing said angrily, "It's the birthday of this little girl Zhong Ling." Holding the gold box, she pointed at Duan Yu, and said, "Baby Gan asked him to give it to you." Duan Zhengchun took it over, feeling sore in his heart, he had long recognized that the gold box was given to her on the eve of his and Baby Gan's engagement. He opened the lid and saw a small piece of red paper inside the box, on which was written: "B On the fifth day of the twelfth month of the Mao year, there are eleven small characters, crooked and crooked, written by Gan Baobao. Dao Baifeng said coldly: "It's very good, I also sent my daughter's birthday." Duan Zhengchun flipped through the red paper, and saw a few lines written on the back of the paper: "Waiting for sorrow, all thoughts are lost. However, a son cannot live without a father. Sixteen years ago, he longed for him day and night, and only waited for the king to come. As a last resort, Yu Yi Belonging to the Zhong family in June of the Mao year." The font is slender, and it is almost impossible to read unless you look closely.Duan Zhengchun remembered that he had betrayed Gan Baobao, and his eyes turned red. Suddenly, his mind moved, and he understood the meaning of these lines in an instant: "Baby married Zhong Wanchou in June of Yimao Year, but Zhong Ling was married to Zhong Wanchou. The one born on the fifth day of December of that year was naturally not Zhong Wanchou's daughter. The baby waited hard for me to arrive, saying 'a child cannot live without a father' and said 'I have no choice but to marry', because she was pregnant, You can't have a child without being married. Then Zhong Ling is my daughter. It was...at that time, sixteen years ago in the spring, after two months of happiness with her, I had Zhong Ling..." Think After understanding this verse, he blurted out: "Oh, no!" Dao Baifeng asked: "Why not?" Duan Zhengchun shook his head, and smiled wryly: "This guy Zhong Wanchou... this guy is too evil, he arranged such a vicious scheme to frame my Duan family, we must not... absolutely not Get married with him. This matter is impossible anyway!" Dao Baifeng listened to his hesitant words, obviously insincere, took the red note in his hand and looked at it, after a while, he understood the reason, and immediately burst into anger Yi, said: "It turns out...it turns out, hey, this little girl Zhong Ling is also your illegitimate daughter!" The backhand was a palm.Duan Zhengchun turned his head to avoid it. Everyone in the hall felt embarrassed.Emperor Baoding smiled and said: "Since this is the case, we have no choice but to let this matter go..." I saw a family member walking to the entrance of the hall, holding a name card in both hands, bowed and said: "Mr. Hulao imprisoned, please see my lord." His eldest disciple, nicknamed "Chasing Soul Whip", is said to be quite good at martial arts, but he has never had any contact with the Duan family, so he doesn't know why he came all the way here.Immediately stood up and said to Emperor Baoding: "I don't know what this man is here for, brother, go out and have a look." Emperor Baoding smiled and nodded, thinking: "This 'hunting whip' came at a coincidence, and you just took the opportunity to escape." Duan Zhengchun walked out of the flower hall, followed by Gao Shengtai, Chu, Gu, Fu and Zhu.Stepping into the hall, I saw a tall middle-aged man sitting on the west chair.The man was dressed in mourning, with a hemp crown on his head, his face was dusty, and his eyes were red and swollen. It was obvious that there was a funeral at home and a relative had died.Seeing Duan Zhengchun enter the hall, he stood up immediately, bowed and saluted, and said: "Henan Guoyanzhi pays homage to the prince." Duan Zhengchun returned the salute, "Mr. Guo Yanzhi thought: "I have heard that the Duan brothers in Dali are rich and powerful but not arrogant. They really deserve their reputation." He said: "Guo Yan's grass and wild man, it is presumptuous to ask to see the prince." Duan Zhengchun said: "The title of the prince is only It's for ordinary people. Teacher Guo's name is admired by Xia Su, and everyone is like a brother, so there is no need to stick to this empty etiquette." After introducing Gao Shengtai, the guests and the host sat down. Guo Yanzhi said: "My lord, my uncle has lived in the mansion for a long time, so please let me know and come out and see you." Duan Zhengchun wondered, "Brother Guo's uncle?" He thought to himself: "Where is there anything in my mansion Someone from the Funiu faction?" Guo Yanzhi said: "My uncle changed his name and surname, took refuge in Zun's mansion, did not dare to tell the prince, it is really disrespectful, please be magnanimous, don't take offense, I thank you here. "As he spoke, he stood up and gave a deep bow.Duan Zhengchun returned the salute while thinking, but he couldn't remember who his uncle was? Gao Shengtai also thought to himself: "Who is it? Who is it?" He assisted the Duan brothers and kept paying attention to the affairs of the court and the Zhennan Prince's residence. He!" He said to the servant next to him: "Go to the account room and tell Mr. Huo that the Henan chasing soul whip has arrived, and I have something urgent to report to 'Golden Abacus' Cui Senior, please come to the hall to talk about it." The servant agreed to go in.After a while, only the sound of kicking and trampling footsteps could be heard in the back hall, and a person came sloppyly and said, "I won't be able to eat this idle meal after you come here for a while." When Duan Zhengchun heard the words "Golden Abacus Cui Senior", his face changed slightly, and he thought: "Could it be that 'Golden Abacus Cui Baiquan' has disappeared here? Why didn't I know? Brother Gao Xian didn't tell me?" He only saw one The wretched-looking old man walked into the hall with a smile, but it was Mr. Huo who was helping to take care of chores in the account room.If this person is not drunk every day, he is gambling with his servants, he is the most tired and boring. In the account room, he has been allowed to fool around for more than ten years just because he is very disciplined in money and money.Duan Zhengchun was very surprised: "This Mr. Huo is really Cui Baiquan? I have no eyes, where do I put this face?" Fortunately, Gao Shengtai called out immediately, and Guo Yanzhi's return to Zhennan Wangfu was already known to everyone. Mr. Huo was half drunk and half awake, with an upside-down look. Seeing Yanzhi in mourning, he couldn't help being startled, and asked: "You...how..." Guo Yanzhi took a few steps forward and bowed down. On the ground, he burst into tears and said: "Uncle Cui, my master... the master was killed by... someone." Mr. Huo Cui Baiquan's expression suddenly changed, and his scorched yellow and thin face was instantly full of vicious vigilance. , slowly asked: "Who is the enemy?" Guo Yanzhi cried: "My nephew is incompetent, I can't find out the enemy's definite information, but I can guess, most of them are people from Gusu Murong's family." Cui Baiquan's face suddenly flashed There was a trace of fear, but the fear disappeared in a moment, and he said in a deep voice: "This matter must be discussed in the long run." Duan Zhengchun and Gao Shengtai glanced at each other, both thought: "'North Qiaofeng, South Murong', his Funiu Sect and the Gusu Murong Sect have become enemies, and this enmity may be hard to avenge." Cui Baiquan looked miserable, and said to Guo Yanzhi: "Nephew Guo, please explain in detail how my senior brother died and returned to the west." Guo Yanzhi said: "A master's hatred is like a father's hatred. If you don't report it for a day, my nephew will have trouble sleeping and eating. Please master叔即行上道，小侄沿途细禀，以免耽误了时刻。”崔百泉鉴貌辨色，知他嫌大厅上耳目众多，说话不便，倒不争在这一时三刻的相差，心下盘算：“我在镇南王府寄居多年，不露形迹，哪料到这位高侯爷早就识破了我行藏。若不向段王爷致歉谢罪，便是大大得罪了段家。何况找姑苏慕容氏为师兄报仇，决非我一力可办，若得段家相助，那便判然不同，这一敌一友之间，出入甚大。”走到段正淳身前，双膝跪地，不住磕头，咚咚有声。 这一下可大出众人意料之外，段正淳忙伸手相扶，不料一扶之下，崔百泉的身子竟如钉在地下一般，牢牢不动。段正淳心道：“好酒鬼，原来武功如此了得，一向骗得我好苦。”劲贯双臂，往上一抬。崔百泉也不再运力撑拒，乘势站起，刚站直身子，只感周身百骸说不出的难受，有如乘了小舟在大海中猛受风涛颠簸之苦，因而晕船一般，情知是段正淳出手惩戒。他想我若运功抵御，镇南王这口气终究难消，说不定他更疑心我混入王府卧底，另有奸恶图谋，趁着体内真气激荡，便即一跤坐倒，索性顺势仰天摔了下去，模样狼狈已极，大叫：“啊哟！” 段正淳微微一笑，伸手拉他起身，拉中带捏，消解了他体内的烦恶。 崔百泉道：“王爷，崔百泉给仇人逼得无路可走，这才厚颜到府上投靠，托庇于王爷的威名之下，总算活到今日。崔百泉没向王爷吐露真相，当真罪该万死！” 高昇泰接口道：“崔兄何必太谦？王爷早已知道阁下身分来历，崔兄既然真人不露相，王爷也就不必叫破，别说王爷知晓，旁人何尝不知？那日世子对付南海鳄神，不是拉着崔兄来充他师父吗？世子知道合府之中，除了王爷自己，只有崔兄才对付得了这姓岳的恶人。”其实那日段誉拉了崔百泉来冒充师父，全是误打误撞，只觉府中诸人以他的形貌最是难看猥琐，这才拉他来跟南海鳄神开个玩笑。但此刻崔百泉听来，却深信不疑，暗自惭愧。 高昇泰又道：“王爷素来好客，别说崔兄于我大理绝无恶意阴谋，就算有不利之心，王爷也当大量包容，以诚相待。崔兄何必多礼？”言下之意是说，只因你并无劣迹恶行，这才相容至今，否则的话，早就已料理了你。 崔百泉道：“高侯爷明鉴，话虽如此说，但姓崔的何以要投靠王府，于告辞之先务须陈明才是，否则太也不够光明。只是此事牵涉旁人，崔百泉斗胆请借一步说话。” 段正淳点了点头，向过彦之道：“过兄，师门深仇，事关重大，也不忙在这一时三刻。咱们慢慢商议不迟。”过彦之还未答应，崔百泉已抢着道：“王爷吩咐，自当遵命。”
这时一名家将走到厅口躬身道：“启禀王爷：少林寺方丈派遣两位高僧前来下书。”少林寺自唐初以来，即为武林中的泰山北斗。段正淳一听，当即站起，走到滴水檐前相迎。 只见两名中年僧人由两名家将引导，穿过天井。一名形貌干枯的僧人躬身合十，说道：“少林寺小僧慧真、慧观，参见王爷。”段正淳抱拳还礼，说道：“两位远道光临，可辛苦了，请厅上奉茶。” 来到厅上，二僧却不就座。慧真说道：“王爷，贫僧奉敝寺方丈之命，前来呈上书信，奉致保定皇爷和镇南王爷。”说着从怀中取出一个油纸包裹，一层层地解开，露出一封黄皮书信，双手呈给段正淳。 段正淳接过，说道：“皇兄便在此间，两位正好相见。”向崔百泉与过彦之道：“两位请用些点心，待会再行详谈。”引着慧真、慧观入内。 其时保定帝已在暖阁中休憩，正与黄眉僧清茗对谈，段誉坐在一旁静听，见到慧真、慧观进来，都站起身来。段正淳送过书信，保定帝拆开一看，见那信是写给他兄弟二人的，前面说了一大段什么“久慕英名，无由识荆”、“威镇天南，仁德广被”、“万民仰望，豪杰归心”、“阐护佛法，宏扬圣道”等等的客套话，但说到正题时，只说：“敝师弟玄悲禅师率徒四人前来贵境，谨以同参佛祖、武林同道之谊，敬恳赐予照拂。”下面署名的是“少林禅寺释子玄慈合十百拜”。 保定帝站着读信，意思是敬重少林寺，慧真和慧观恭恭敬敬地在一旁垂手侍立。保定帝道：“两位请坐。少林方丈既有法谕，大家是佛门弟子，武林一派，但叫力所能及，自当遵命。玄悲大师明晓佛学，武功深湛，在下兄弟素所敬慕，不知大师法驾何时光临？在下兄弟扫榻相候。” 慧真、慧观突然双膝跪地，咚咚咚咚地磕头，跟着便痛哭失声。 保定帝、段正淳都是一惊，心道：“莫非玄悲大师死了？”保定帝伸手扶起，说道：“你我武林同道，不敢当此大礼。”慧真站直身子，果然说道：“我师父圆寂了！”保定帝心想：“这通书信本是要玄悲大师亲自送来的，莫非他死在大理境内？”说道：“玄悲大师西归，佛门少一高僧，武林失一高手，实深悼惜。不知玄悲大师于何日圆寂？” 慧真道：“方丈师伯月前得到讯息，'天下四大恶人'要来大理跟皇爷与镇南王为难。大理段氏威镇天南，自不惧他区区'四大恶人'，但恐两位不知，手下的执事部属中了暗算，因此派我师父率同四名弟子，前来大理禀告皇爷，并听由差遣。” 保定帝好生感激，心想：“无怪少林派数百年来众所敬服，玄慈方丈以天下武林安危为己任，我们虽远在南鄙，他竟也关心及之。他信上说要我们照拂玄悲大师师徒，其实却是派人来报讯助拳。”当即微微躬身，说道：“方丈大师隆情厚意，我兄弟不知何以为报。” 慧真道：“皇爷太谦了。我师徒兼程南来，上月廿八，在大理陆凉州身戒寺挂单，哪知道廿九清晨，我们师兄弟四人起身，竟见到师父……我们师父受人暗算，死在身戒寺的大殿之上……”说到这里，已呜咽不能成声。 保定帝长叹一声，问道：“玄悲大师是中了歹毒暗器吗？”慧真道：“不是。”保定帝与黄眉僧、段正淳、高昇泰四人均有诧异之色，都想：“以玄悲大师的武功，若不是身中见血封喉的歹毒暗器，就算敌人在背后忽施突袭，也决不会全无抗拒之力，就此毙命。大理国中，又有哪一个邪派高手能有这般本领下此毒手？” 段正淳道：“今儿初三，上月月小，廿八晚间是四天之前。誉儿被擒入万劫谷是廿九晚间。”保定帝点头道：“不是'四大恶人'。”段延庆这几日中都在万劫谷，决不能分身到千里之外的陆凉州去杀人，何况即是段延庆，也未必能无声无息地一下子就打死了玄悲大师。 慧真道：“我们扶起师父，他老人家身子冰冷，圆寂已然多时，大殿上也没动过手的痕迹。我们追出寺去，身戒寺的师兄们也帮同搜寻，但数十里内找不到凶手的半点线索。” 保定帝黯然道：“玄悲大师为我段氏而死，又是在大理国境内遭难，在情在理，我兄弟决不能置身事外。” 慧真、慧观二僧同时合十道谢。慧真又道：“我师兄弟四人和身戒寺方丈五叶大师商议之后，将师父遗体暂厝在身戒寺，不敢就此火化，以便日后掌门师伯检视。我两个师兄赶回少林寺禀报掌门师伯，小僧和慧观师弟赶来大理，向皇爷与镇南王禀报。” 保定帝道：“五叶方丈年高德劭，见识渊博，多知武林掌故，他老人家如何说？” 慧真道：“五叶方丈言道：十之八九，凶手是姑苏慕容家的人物。” 段正淳和高昇泰对望一眼，心中都道：“又是'姑苏慕容'！” 黄眉僧一直静听不语，忽然插口道：“玄悲大师可是胸口中了敌人的一招'大韦陀杵'而圆寂么？”慧真一惊，说道：“大师所料不错，不知如何……如何……”黄眉僧道：“久闻少林玄悲大师'大韦陀杵'功夫乃武林一绝，中杵者肋骨根根断折。这门武功自然厉害之极，但终究太过霸道，似乎非我佛门弟子……唉！”段誉插嘴道：“是啊，这门功夫太过狠辣。” 慧真、慧观听黄眉僧评论自己师父，已然不满，但敬他是前辈高僧，不敢还嘴，待听段誉也在一旁多嘴多舌，不禁怒目瞪视。段誉只当不见，毫不理会。 段正淳问道：“师兄怎知玄悲大师中了'大韦陀杵'而圆寂？”黄眉僧叹道：“身戒寺方丈五叶大师料定凶手是姑苏慕容氏，自然不是胡乱猜测的。段二弟，姑苏慕容氏有一句话，叫做'以彼之道，还施彼身'，你听见过么？”段正淳沉吟道：“这句话倒也曾听见过，只不大明白其中含意。”黄眉僧喃喃地道：“以彼之道，还施彼身。嗯，以彼之道，还施彼身……”脸上突然间闪过一丝恐惧之色。保定帝、段正淳和他相识数十年，从未见他生过惧意，今日他与延庆太子生死相搏，明明已经落败，虽然狼狈周章，神色却仍坦然，此刻竟然露出惧色，可见对手确实可畏可怖。 暖阁中一时寂静无声。过了半晌，黄眉僧缓缓地道：“老僧听说，姑苏慕容世家的武功，当真渊博到了极处。似乎武林中不论哪一派哪一家的绝技，他们无一不精，无一不会。更奇的是，他们若要制人死命，必是使用那人的成名绝技。”段誉道：“这当真匪夷所思了，天下有这许许多多武功，他们又怎学得周全？”黄眉僧道：“贤侄此言不错，学如渊海，一人如何能够穷尽？可是慕容家的仇人原亦不多。听说他们若学不会仇人的绝招，不能以这绝招致对方死命，他们就不会动手。” 保定帝道：“我也听说过中原有这么个武林世家。河北骆氏三雄善使飞锥，后来三人都身中飞锥丧命。山东章虚道人杀人时必定斩去敌人四肢，让他哀叫半日方死。这章虚道人自己也遭此惨报，慕容博这'以彼之道，还施彼身'八个字，就是从章虚道人口中传出来的。”顿了一顿，又道：“当时济南闹市之中，不知有多少人围观章虚道人在地下翻滚号叫。”他说到这里，似乎依稀见到章虚道人临死时的惨状，脸色间既有不忍，又有不满之色。 段正淳点头道：“那就是了。”突然想起一事，说道：“过彦之过大爷的师父柯百岁，听说擅用软鞭，鞭上的劲力却是纯刚一路，杀敌时往往一鞭击得对方头盖粉碎，难道他……他……”击掌三下，召来一名侍仆，道：“请崔先生和过大爷到这里，说我有事相商。”那侍仆应道：“是！”但他不知崔先生是谁，迟疑不走。高昇泰笑道：“崔先生便是账房中那个霍先生。”那侍仆这才大声应了一个“是”，转身出去。 不多时崔百泉和过彦之来到暖阁。段正淳先给保定帝、黄眉僧等引见了，说道：“过兄，在下有一事请问，尚盼勿怪。”过彦之道：“不敢。”段正淳道：“请问令师柯老前辈如何中人暗算？是拳脚还是兵刃上受了致命之伤？” 过彦之突然满脸通红，甚是惭愧，嗫嚅半晌，才道：“家师是伤在软鞭的一招'天灵千裂'之下。凶手的劲力刚猛异常，纵然家师自己，也不能……也不能……” 保定帝、段正淳、黄眉僧等相互望了一眼，心中都不由自主地一凛。 慧真走到崔百泉和过彦之跟前，合十一礼，说道：“贫僧师兄弟和两位敌忾同仇，若不灭了姑苏慕容……”说到这里，心想是否能灭得姑苏慕容氏，实在难说，一咬牙，说道：“贫僧将性命交在他手里便了。”过彦之双目含泪，说道：“少林派和姑苏慕容氏也结下深仇么？”慧真便将如何料想师父玄悲死于慕容氏手下之事简略说了。 过彦之神色悲愤，咬牙痛恨。崔百泉却垂头丧气的不语，似乎浑没将师兄的血仇放在心上。慧观和尚冲口说道：“崔先生，你怕了姑苏慕容氏么？”慧真忙喝：“师弟，不得无礼！”崔百泉东边瞧瞧，西边望望，似怕隔墙有耳，又似怕有极厉害的敌人来袭，一副心惊胆战的模样。慧观哼的一声，自言自语：“大丈夫死就死了，又有什么好怕的？”慧真也颇不以崔百泉的胆怯为然，对师弟的出言冲撞就不再制止。 黄眉僧轻轻咳嗽一声，说道：“这事……”崔百泉全身一抖，跳了起来，将几上的一只茶碗带翻了，乒乓一声，在地下打得粉碎。他定了定神，见众人目光都瞧在自己身上，不由得面红耳赤，说道：“对不住，对不住！”过彦之皱着眉头，俯身拾起茶杯碎片。 段正淳心想：“这崔百泉是个脓包。”向黄眉僧道：“师兄，怎样？” 黄眉僧喝了一口茶，缓缓地道：“崔施主想来曾见过慕容博？”崔百泉听到“慕容博”三字，“哦”的一声惊呼，双手撑在椅上，颤声道：“我没有……是……是见过……没有……”慧观大声问道：“崔先生到底见过慕容博，还是没见过？”崔百泉双目向空瞪视，神不守舍，段正淳等都暗暗摇头。过彦之见师叔如此出丑，更加尴尬难受。It took a while.崔百泉才颤声道：“没有……嗯……大概……好像没有……这个……”
黄眉僧道：“老衲曾有一件亲身经历，不妨说将出来，供各位参详。说来那是四十五年前的事了，那时老衲年轻力壮，刚出道不久，在江湖上也闯下了一点名声。当真是初生的牛犊儿不怕虎，只觉天下之大，除了师父之外，谁也不及我的武艺高强。那一年我护送一位任满回籍的京官和家眷，从汴梁回山东去，在青豹冈附近的山坳中遇上了四名盗匪。这四个匪徒一上来不抢财物，却去拉那京官的小姐。老衲当时年少气盛，自是容情不得，一出手便是辣招，使出金刚指力，都是一指刺入心窝，四名匪徒哼也没哼，便即一一毙命。 “我当时自觉不可一世，口沫横飞地向那京官夸口，说什么'便再来十个八个大盗，我也一样的用金刚指送了他们性命。'便在那时，只听得蹄声得得，有两人骑着花驴从路旁经过。忽然骑在花驴背上的一人哼了一声，似乎是女子声音，哼声中却充满轻蔑不屑之意。我转头看去，见一匹驴上坐的是个三十六七岁的妇人，另一匹驴上则是个十五六岁的少年，眉清目秀，甚是俊雅，两人都全身缟素，服着重孝。却听那少年道：'妈，金刚指有什么了不起，却在这儿胡吹大气！'” 黄眉僧的出身来历，连保定帝兄弟都不深知。但他在万劫谷中以金刚指力划石为局，陷石成子，和延庆太子搏斗不屈，众人均十分敬仰，而他的金刚指力更无人不服，这时听他述说那少年之言，均觉小小孩童，当真胡说八道。 不料黄眉僧轻轻叹了口气，接着道：“当时我听了这句话虽然气恼，但想一个黄口孺子的胡言何足计较？只向他怒目瞪了一眼，也不理睬。却听得那妇人斥道：'这人的金刚指是福建泉州达摩下院的正宗，已有三成火候。小孩儿家懂得什么？你出指就没他这般准。' “我一听之下，自然又惊又怒。我的师门渊源江湖上极少人知，这少妇居然一口道破，而说我的金刚指力只三成火候，我当然大不服气。唉，其实那时候我太也不知天高地厚，以其时的功力而论，说我有三成火候，还是说得高了，最多也不过二成六七分而已。我便大声道：'这位夫人尊姓？小觑在下的金刚指力，是有意赐教数招么？'那少年勒住花驴，便要答话。那少妇忽然双目一红，含泪欲滴，说道：'你爹临终时说过什么话来。你立时便忘了么？'那少年道：'是，孩儿不敢忘记。'两人挥鞭催驴，便向前奔。 “我越想越不服，纵马追了上去，叫道：'喂！胡说八道地指摘别人武功，不留下几招，便想一走了之吗？'我骑的是匹脚力极快的好马，说话之间，已越过两匹花驴，拦在二人之前。那妇人向那少年道：'你瞧，你随口乱说，人家可不答应了。'那少年显然对母亲很孝顺，再也不敢向我瞧上一眼。我见他们怕了我，心想孤儿寡妇，胜之不武，何必跟他们一般见识？但听那妇人的语气，这少年似乎也会金刚指力。我这门功夫足足花了十五年苦功，方始练成，这小小孩童如何能会？自然是胡吹大气，便道：'今日便放你们走路，以后说话可得小心些。' “那妇人仍正眼也不朝我瞧上一眼，向那少年道：'这位叔叔说得不错，以后你说话可得小心些。'倘若就此罢休，岂不极好？可是那时候我年少气盛，勒马让在道边，那少妇纵驴先行，那少年一拍驴身，胯下花驴便也开步，我扬起马鞭，向花驴臀上抽去，大笑道：'快快走吧！'马鞭距那花驴臀边尚有尺许，只听得嗤的一声，那少年回身一指，指力凌空而来，将我的马鞭荡得飞了出去。这一下可将我吓得呆了，他这一指指力凌厉，远胜于我。 只听那妇人道：'既出了手，便得了结。 '那少年道：'是。 '勒转花驴，向我冲过来。我伸左掌使一招'拦云手'向他推去，突然间嗤的一声，他伸指戳出，我只觉左边胸口一痛，全身劲力尽失。 " 黄眉僧说到这里，缓缓解开僧袍，露出瘦骨嶙嶙的胸膛来，只见他左边胸口对准心脏处有个一寸来深的洞孔。洞孔虽已结疤，仍可想像得到昔日受创之重。所奇者这创口显已深及心脏，他居然不死，还能活到今日，众人都不禁骇然。 黄眉僧指着自己右边胸膛，说道：“诸位请看。”只见该处皮肉不住起伏跳动，众人这才明白，原来他生具异相，心脏偏右而不偏左，当年死里逃生，全由于此。 黄眉僧缚好僧袍上的布带，说道：“似这等心脏生于右边的情状，实是万中无一。那少年见一指戳中我心口，我居然并不立时丧命，将花驴拉开几步，神色极是诧异。我见自己胸口鲜血汩汩流出，只道性命已然不保，哪里还有什么顾忌，大声骂道：'小贼，你说会使金刚指，哼哼！达摩下院的金刚指，可有伤人见血却杀不了人的么！你这一指手法根本就不对，也决不是金刚指。'那少年纵身上前，又想伸指戳来，那时我全无抗御之能，只有束手待毙的份儿。不料那妇人挥出手中马鞭，卷住了少年的手臂。我迷迷糊糊
