Chapter 12 Chapter One

The sun was shining, and it was a peaceful early autumn morning. The turbid waters of the Yellow River surged into raging waves several feet high, roaring and rushing past, smashing the silent sunlight hanging in the air into pieces.As a result, the blue sky also took on a withered and yellow shadow, silently dimming the scene of Qing Liao. In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the Yellow River was still like an unconquerable giant, wantonly despising everything in the world. A flat boat is sailing in the raging waves, but it is like a rock, despite the wind and waves, it does not tilt, and it drifts forward slowly and steadily.

The three people on board were Guo Ao, Tie Hen and Li Qingchou. Guo Ao stood at the bow of the boat, the water of the Yellow River was surging and roaring, and a large area of ​​the river water hit him like a torrential rain. Shangguanhong still escaped, but Shaolin was destroyed, and Wudang was facing a precarious situation.The anger on Guo Ao's face became more and more intense, and he let out a long roar, and swung his palm towards the river in front of him! The river was rushing and rushing, and was thrown obliquely by his palm.But the power of nature is so great that the mighty flood in front of him retreated a little, and was immediately pushed forward by the surging waves.The two forces intersected, and the wind and waves became more violent. There was a hoarse hiss, and the volley flew towards the boat!

Guo Ao laughed, letting the monstrous waves wet his body.Tie Hen didn't care about him, just looked up at the sky silently.The turbid river water completely covered the blue sky, as if separated by a layer of glass, the clear colors became blurred together. Tie Hen murmured: "The sky is about to change..." Li Qingchou flicked the water droplets splashed on his clothes, and said with a smile: "You two, don't make one angry and the other deep. How on earth are you going to get rid of these pursuers?" Guo Ao sneered and said, "Son of the Demon Cult, kill him!"

Li Qingchou shook her head slightly, and said: "Since the Demon Sect has the ability to destroy Shaolin Temple, the people they send may not be the ones we can kill." Tie Hen said indifferently: "Since we can't kill, we can only run away. If the three of us run away with all our strength, I'm afraid there are not many people in the world who can catch up, right?" Li Qingchou said: "Although we can escape for a while, I'm afraid that when we are exhausted, it will be the day when others will kill us." Guo Ao said: "If you have any ideas, just tell them. Why do you have to make so many tricks? When we are together, you have always made up your mind, so you don't have to ask me anymore."

Li Qingchou pondered: "My solution is very simple, the three of us have to separate!" Guo Ao frowned and said, "Separate? Isn't the strength weaker after separation?" Li Qingchou said with a smile: "We are together and restrain each other, but it is not easy to give full play to each other's strengths. Brother Guo is good at swordsmanship. He is fierce and majestic, and he goes straight forward. So we rushed to Wudang Mountain to report the letter. It’s just too much work for Brother Guo.” Guo Ao said: "What about you?" Li Qingchou said with a smile: "Let's stay and see who the Demon Sect has sent. I don't have anything good at, so I have to stay on this boat, and brother Tie is good at stealth tracking, so Tie Brother shouldn't be on the boat."

Tie Hen nodded and said: "You are on the boat, and the members of the Demon Cult are following you, and I will follow the members of the Demon Cult again." Guo Ao laughed loudly and said: "Whenever there is a chance, it's 'click'!" He made a one-handed bending movement.The three laughed together. Li Qingchou said: "Then Brother Guo must go on the road. The fate of the world depends on Brother Guo." Guo Ao took a deep breath and looked at Li Qingchou and Tie Hen.Tie Hen's face was gloomy, almost expressionless, but Li Qingchou was smiling.Guo Ao's face gradually became dignified, and he suddenly cupped his fists and said, "Treasure!"

His body suddenly folded, flipped lightly in the air, and sank into the vast water of the Yellow River.When the river water full of yellow sand hit his face, Guo Ao felt his eyes sting. He vaguely knew that the Demon Cult had a big plan this time. Watching the battle to destroy Shaolin, although few people took action, the momentum was huge. Whether it was the shadow of thirty secret demons or the formation of one hundred thousand snakes and insects, they were all extremely powerful forces , It is impossible to master without years of operation.This time to hunt down the three who slipped through the net, they may not only send a few second-rate masters.

Can Tie Hen and Li Qingchou stop it? Guo Ao didn't dare to think too much.Although the three of them only meet once every few years, their friendship is very deep, no less than brothers and sisters.If he had no choice, Guo Ao would not let them go and walk away alone.But he is well aware that he has a heavier responsibility to go here, and the future is difficult and dangerous, so there may not be no devil sect members ambushing him.He sighed silently, and said silently: "Treasure!" With the circulation of his true energy, his body suddenly cut through the vast turbid waves like a huge rock, and dived to the bottom of the water.

The sword qi he practiced is first-class kung fu, not only his swordsmanship is fierce, but when he uses this breath, he can hold his breath for more than a moment.Guo Ao no longer thinks about the things that have been decided, and completely discards the thoughts in his heart, imagining that his surroundings are like a vast blue sky, and he is like a dust in the world, uncontaminated, rising and falling with the conditions, and the surging waves around him are as quiet As if going down, his body also fell vertically. At the bottom of the river, the water potential is not so strong.The turbid waves on the surface of the river were more than two feet high, but the bottom of the water was unusually calm.It's just that the bottom of the water is full of mud and sand, which can be stirred up several feet high and bottomless.Guo Ao slowly released his true energy from the hundred orifices of his body, his body was like a huge octopus, moving flat against the bottom of the water.

The mud and sand stirred up at the bottom of the water were so turbid that even if someone passed a foot away from him, he would not be seen.Although the water is calm, the water is still flowing at an extremely fast speed. Guo Ao follows the waves without much effort. Guo Ao slowly raised his body when he was about to exhaust his breath of true energy. The sword energy around him floated in the air and groped. When a huge wave hit him, he suddenly stretched out his head and took a few deep breaths.The wave crashed down, and he dived with the wave again.He moved extremely carefully, and the river was very windy and turbulent. Even if someone looked carefully, they might not be able to find any traces.

After going on and off like this for more than three hours, Guo Ao estimated that he had swum out for more than a hundred miles. With Li Qingchou and Tie Hen behind the palace, the Demon Cult must not be able to catch up here even though they have great powers.He groped for the sand at the bottom of the water and swam towards the south bank. Near the shore is a small forest, the surroundings are quiet, and there is no one.Guo Ao was not in a hurry to go ashore, and spread his sword energy far away. After half an hour, he made sure that there was really no one around, and then he walked ashore. Due to the nourishment of the river, this forest grows extremely luxuriantly, and the forest is full of grass and green.Guo Ao went ashore, fighting for days, and just now diving in the bottom of the river, his physical strength was really exhausted, and he fell asleep regardless of the wet clothes on his body.I slept until it was dark, and then I woke up rubbing my eyes, the clothes were already dry. He is such a person, sometimes shrewd to be watertight, but sometimes careless to be careless.It is really a strange thing to walk alone in the rivers and lakes for so many years without dying.He stretched his hands and feet slowly, picked some firewood around, struck it with a flint, gathered a pile full, and then sat by the fire, not knowing whether to grill fish or catch a rabbit or something Barbecue. Suddenly, I heard the sound of a luan bell coming from a distance.Guo Ao's heart moved, he looked at himself, the mud and sand in the Yellow River had already made his clothes extremely dirty, at this time the mud was half dry, his clothes were yellow and blue, and most of them were torn into shreds. He couldn't keep his original appearance, and his body was even more filthy. He looked like a country boy doing coolies. Guo Ao took off his shoes and threw them far into the river. His feet stomped on the ground, and they were also covered with mud.He spread his legs wide apart, sat by the fire, lifted the skirt of his clothes and wiped his face. The sound of the luan bell was getting closer and closer, and gradually a group of more than a dozen people came riding on tall horses.At first, several horses carried a bulging cloth bag on their backs, which seemed to be full of silver ingots. Guo Ao pretended not to look at them, the last bodyguard was riding a horse without a cloth bag, holding a big flag in his hand, unfolded the hulala, and wrote four large characters "Shenwei Bodyguard Bureau". Guo Ao's heart skipped a beat again, because the Shenwei Escort was run by Mr. Tie Wanchang Tie, and its headquarter is located in Jingzhou, not far from Wudang Mountain.If you go back to the headquarters this time, you can try to go together and rush to Wudang quietly. The new generation of bodyguards in this bodyguard agency are not very skilled, and their temper is not small; the stalls are very large, and there are more than a dozen branch offices, but the operation is very chaotic.Dragons and snakes have always been mixed in the Escort, and no one knows if there is one more person or one less. Everyone in the Escort came over shouting.The hooves of the horses thumped, and there were more than a dozen people in the group, that is, more than a dozen horses, it was very imposing. Guo Ao watched coldly, the cultivation base of all the bodyguards was as rumored, they were all mediocre, no wonder they only escorted a few bags of money. Suddenly, I heard a "moo" call.Guo Ao was taken aback, why was there a cow's cry among the horses? Then a voice shouted: "Drive! Run the bull, we are no worse than horses!" He saw a bull swaying out of the herd of horses, with a person riding on it.There was nothing unusual about the ox, it was clearly a coolie pulling the plow in the field, and it walked extremely slowly, but the man on the back was very proud, as if he was riding Huang Feihu's five-colored divine ox Well, Wang Kai's 800-mile wrestling is an unrivaled treasure, not even comparable to sweat-blooded horses. This person was also dressed very strangely. He was wearing a pair of light yellow silk trousers, which fluttered freely. The hem of the trousers was more than three feet long, and at the very end, they piled up on the back of the cow like chaotic clouds.But the upper body is naked, only a silk belt is slanted.It would be fine if someone from the rivers and lakes or the rich and young in the countryside dressed like this, but this person's skin is white and plump, and his face is handsome, as if carved from pure white jade. In Taichung, let’s talk about the purpose of Qingyuan, how can you dress up in such a nonsensical way, trek through the wind and dust, and walk in the rivers and lakes? He wore a brocade hat with coiled silk on his head, but the middle was not inlaid with jade as popular nowadays, but a phoenix tail was inserted high up, and between looking around, the tassels and pendant jade under the phoenix tail rang together, and the sound of gold and jade vibrated , spread far and wide. This outfit, even Guo Ao felt weird when he saw it, but he didn't notice it at all, looking around with clear eyes, he really looked forward to it.Suddenly seeing Guo Ao at a glance, he immediately smiled and said: "Boss Yang, you see there are forests and fires here, and there are still people here, why don't we rest for a while?" The leader was in his thirties, and his face was extremely capable. He nodded and said, "It's good to take a break. First drink a few sips of wine and rush to the town ahead, let's have a good rest." .” A group of people dismounted one after another and tied the animals to the trees around them.The bull rider tapped his toes, jumped off the bull's back, and patted the cow's rump lightly, letting the cow graze by itself.He walked carelessly to the fire and sat down with a bang, regardless of the dirt and turf on the ground.Seeing that Guo Ao didn't speak, he bumped him with the shoulder and said: "My name is Shen Nong, you seem to be a small farmer, we seem to be a family, so we have no choice but to get closer." Guo Ao lowered his head and pulled the fire, ignoring him.Shen Nong didn't care, he opened his eyes to look around, and sighed: "It's so late in the autumn, and it's the time of sunset, the wind is blowing like clouds, and the water is hitting the sky. Isn't it a very good natural sound of nature? We are lucky to be born as human beings, and we know the beauty of the voice and the harmony of the melody, so we can't help encouraging others and composing songs to harmonize." He talked nonsense, and he didn't care whether Guo Ao understood or not, but he said it happily and danced.Regardless of whether Guo Ao agrees or not, he stretched out his hand and pulled out a flute carved from white jade from his waist, put it to his lips and began to blow. For a while, the vibrating sound curled up, like a lone crane rising, rising from the sky and far away.The autumn waters flowed into the sky and turned into light smoke, covering the sky and the earth.The crane circled left and right, gradually its white feathers and black feathers were in a trance, scattered in the pure blue sky, leaving only an indescribable melancholy. Guo Ao didn't expect that he could play the flute so well that even Li Qingchou, who was always good at playing the flute, was quite inferior.Feeling refreshed for a while, I couldn't help tapping my toes, and started beating in time with him. Shen Nong couldn't help being overjoyed when he saw that he had a bosom friend, Junshang. When the sound of the flute stopped, he saw his lips parted slightly and let out a long howl. Guo Ao immediately felt a big knife cut straight into his chest and diaphragm, and following Shen Nong's whistling sound, he kept tearing, grinding and cutting off the internal organs piece by piece, and squeezed them into powder. The young man's voice is elegant and pleasant, and the sound of the flute is even more faint and beautiful, but when it whistles, the voice suddenly becomes hoarse and dry, like a carriage that has been unused for decades when it is re-hitched, and the rusty iron shaft rubs against it. The sour sound was really shocking. Even the ghost-faced harp played by the Ghost Lady of the Tianluo Sect, the Tianfeng Huan Peiqin of the Huayinge Concubine Xinyue, and the Fumo Pipa of the Mandala Sect Chi Guotian are not as lethal as his whistling sound!Really cut off the dog's tail, stepped on the chicken's neck, with Guo Ao's ten years of sword practice and ten years of energy cultivation, he couldn't help his face changing color in shock. Flip out and grab him. As soon as Guo Ao moved, Shen Nong immediately stopped talking.Guo Ao felt his chest heal, and his pleasure was better than drinking ten catties of Meiyan Chunbing from Yunxian Palace.As soon as the pressure on his body was gone, his shots also slowed down.In a blink of an eye, Shen Nong looked at him excitedly.Guo Ao couldn't help shivering from the frenzied fire that shot out from his eyes, and asked anxiously, "What are you doing?" Shen Nong stood up suddenly, bowed deeply, and said, "Bosom friend!" Guo Ao was stunned for a moment, he didn't understand why he called himself a bosom friend as soon as he came out of Qianlong Tengyuan?Seeing that Shen Nong took a step forward and was about to shake hands with Guo Ao, Guo Ao hurriedly dodged like a snake. Shen Nong didn't care either. When Kong Kong grabbed it, it was as if he was holding Guo Ao's hand. He shook it vigorously a few times, and said excitedly: "My long roar was made when Zu Ti heard the chicken dancing in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. It's called 'chicken sound'. As soon as Xiongtai heard my whistle, he got up and danced. How could he not be my bosom friend? Shen has traveled all over the country, and he is the first person who can hear the elegance of my whistle! " Said, bowed down again. Guo Ao smiled wryly.This howling sound, if the skill is not good enough, I am afraid that the true energy will flow back immediately, and three mouthfuls of blood will be spit out in a row.If you listen to it for a while longer, and your true energy loses control, you will go mad, and your whole body will explode and die.Is there really any Xiao song called "Chicken Sound"? Shen Nong saw that Guo Ao didn't answer, of course he thought he was a modest gentleman who didn't care about fame.Taking another step forward, he grabbed Guo Ao's hands, and the heat in his voice increased a bit: "Brother Guo, my brother, there are also sounds like dogs barking, wolves howling, foxes barking, ghost howling, etc. Brother, you must listen to this dog. The chirping is what Meng Changjun felt when he stole Qiqiu; the wolf howling is what Su Zi saw when he was hunting. Don't wait, the younger brother also dare not cherish it alone, he wants to share the reward with his brother." He spoke so impatiently, but he wanted Guo Ao to listen to his cries of dogs and howls of wolves.Guo Ao's hair was on end all over his body immediately, and he couldn't help shrinking his body, wanting to free himself from his hands that kept protruding enthusiastically. To say that Guo Ao's martial arts is considered top-notch in the Jianghu, there are not none who are stronger than him, but being forced into such a mess is the only one I have ever seen in my life; No, I don't think there will be any in the future, and it can be said to be unprecedented. Finally, after Guo Ao leaned his back against the tree trunk, his hand could no longer escape, and Shen Nong held it firmly, shaking violently.Guo Ao couldn't help being pulled to the side of the fire and sat down as before.Shen Nong was no longer polite, holding Guo Ao tightly with both hands, and screamed to the sky.Sure enough, it was strange and abrupt, Xiao Shusen was relaxed, like a mad dog and a wolf.And it was not a wolf or a dog in a normal state of mind, but a dying beast that was forced into a trap. Dozens of people surrounded it and bombarded it with sticks. Guo Ao only felt that his head was about to explode, his head was dizzy, and the sword energy was running uncontrollably by itself, waiting to fall on Shen Nong's head.But the wolf's howling sound was extremely powerful, Guo Ao had a sword in his hand, but he couldn't gather his strength no matter what.He opened his mouth to drink him off, but the voice somehow swallowed as soon as it reached his throat, and he felt sore for a while.This can be described as wanting to cry without tears. He looked for the bodyguards who came with him hopefully, but found that each of them was holding a tree, holding their breath, with one ear close to the arm, and the other firmly stuck to the bark. This posture was just right. With the ears blocked, the body is also in place, and it is possible to avoid the brain-piercing sound. It seems that he has been prepared for a long time.They really have no other purpose at the moment, they just ignore Guo Ao, even if Guo Ao stabs them with needles, they won't move an inch. Suddenly there was a howling sound from above the Yellow River, cutting through the night in an instant, and rushing straight into Shen Nong's howling dogs and howling wolves.The whistling sound came very fast, it didn't seem to come from the mouth, but it seemed to be the sound of breaking the wind very quickly.But the river was empty and the turbid waves were raging. With Guo Ao's ability, he could only travel under water. How could anyone be able to travel so fast? Shen Nong was startled, but kept silent.Guo Ao immediately acted as if he had received an amnesty, and hurriedly took a step away, and also hugged a tree - it was okay to kill him, but let him let go, that would be impossible. Suddenly there was a loud bang, and a huge black shadow rushed straight out of the river and smashed towards the crowd. All the bodyguards didn't care about hugging the tree, and hurriedly resisted.But the black shadow is several feet long, but how can it resist it?At the moment of their lives, Shen Nong didn't care that Shen Nong might take advantage of the danger and howl again, so he had to run away one after another. There was an earth-shattering noise, and the black shadow hit the bonfire, and a large splash of water splashed out. When everyone looked at it, it was a dark speedboat. Shen Nong was extremely righteous, when the speedboat crashed, he dragged Guo Ao and rolled to one side.Guo Ao was so happy that he didn't show his kung fu and let him procrastinate.While dragging Guo Ao, Shen Nong said in a low voice: "Brother, don't worry, I'll whistle for you again in a while!" Suddenly heard a charming voice saying: "You who have feet, hurry up, I don't make things difficult for you. It's just that I accept the money." The voice was pleasant, Guo Ao finally had some joy in being a human being. When he looked up, he saw a little girl standing on the bow of the speedboat, about sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a lotus leaf jacket, There is a small bun on the head, which looks very light and pretty.At this time, I tried to put on a vicious look, but I didn't expect that if a person was beautiful, he would lose the qualifications to be a villain. No matter how vicious he pretended, it would be difficult for others to be afraid of him.Therefore, the famous villains in the world are rarely women. Of course, people who walk darts often encounter robbers.Boss Yang was not too nervous and said with a smile: "If the girl has less money to spend, she still has thirty taels of private money here. How about spending it first? Although the money is a little less, it is enough for the girl to save some money." I bought some beautiful clothes and ate some rich meals." As he said that, he really took out a handful of broken silver from his pocket, and really handed it over to the girl. Guo Ao couldn't help sighing.This girl can sail the boat so fast on the turbulent and vicious Yellow River. She can drive the boat for more than ten feet, and her skills are not mediocre no matter what.Boss Yang saw that she was just a cute little girl, so he took it lightly, and that would be his fault. Cute, but also murderous.Especially the cute little girls, when they kill people, they don't even blink. The same was true for this little girl, she looked at Boss Yang with a smile on her face, without blinking her eyes, she stretched out her hand and took the money from Boss Yang's hand.The smile on Boss Yang's face became wider. It is of course the best to be able to solve this matter so easily.The Escort Bureau is for business, not for fighting and killing, and he is willing to save his true energy when he can do nothing. The little girl smiled even sweeter. She rubbed her hands together, and the thirty taels of silver was suddenly twisted into a thin and long silver stick by her. With a shake of her hand, the silver stick was inserted into the In Boss Yang's ears. It went in from one ear and went out from that ear.Two shiny horns suddenly grew on Boss Yang's head.His eyes also became extremely strange, and he just stood there, unable to speak a word. The little girl's laughter grew louder: "I don't want your money, I will return it to you." She even patted Boss Yang on the shoulder, and said softly: "You are a good person, so I decided to let you not shed a drop of blood. After all, there are not many good people in this world." Boss Yang opened his mouth with all his strength, wanting to say something.The little girl put her ear to his mouth and said: "What else do you want to say? If you can still say a word, I will crush the silver back to its original shape and return it to you?" Boss Yang's breath became weaker and weaker, and he died standing like this. The little girl sighed and said, "Since you have nothing to say, I'll ask other people." She really stood up straight, and asked: "Who else among you wants to give me money?" She swept her eyes away from everyone with a smile. There was a chill all over his body for no reason—a chill like the sharp blade of a magic weapon that had killed thousands of people. The little girl sighed: "I just said, there are fewer and fewer good people. My senior sister told me that I can't take money from good people, so I only want money from 'not good people'. You stay with this good person , so-so, you are considered good people. I can't take your money." She suddenly came up in front of the horse, lightly buckled the silver pouch on the horse's back, suddenly pulled a bodyguard over, and shouted: "Is this silver yours?" The bodyguard trembled in fright, hurriedly shook his head and said, "It's not mine, it's Mr. Shen..." The little girl stopped and said, "It's not yours, so that's fine. Who can stand up and claim these silvers?" All the bodyguards were silent for a while. Because they all saw that the little girl just tapped the silver bag with two fingers, and the horse sank inch by inch to the ground.The strange thing was that the horse's legs didn't bend, and it didn't neigh, as if it was made of clay. But these bodyguards rode it all the way, and naturally knew that it was definitely not made of mud. This little girl's martial arts are not only powerful, but also kind of indescribably weird, which makes her shocking even more. Although Guo Ao has a lot of knowledge, he couldn't see the way out for a while. Seeing that no one answered, the little girl's smiling face turned red, making it even more beautiful.She said softly: "Ask again..." Suddenly, I heard an equally crisp voice shouting: "I! I!" The little girl and Guo Ao looked sideways at the same time, to see who was vying for the answer.Shen Nong raised one hand high and looked at the little girl with great excitement. His expression really made one can't wait.
