In June of the eighteenth year of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty, in the inner courtyard of the Zongbing Yamen in Yansui Town, Fufeng, Shaanxi, a 14-year-old girl was bouncing towards the teacher's study.In the morning, the teacher finished a section of the book "The Battle of Chibi", and casually told some stories about Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu.There was no homework in the afternoon, but the girl was so excited that she asked the teacher to tell the story of the Three Kingdoms again.The sun was scorching hot this day, and the surroundings were quiet, not to mention the slightest cool breeze.The girl came outside the study, fearing that the teacher would not wake up from her afternoon nap and it would be inconvenient for her to go in, so she went around to the window lightly, pulled out the golden hairpin on her head, pierced a small hole in the window paper, and looked over.

I saw the teacher sitting cross-legged on the chair, with a smile on his face, slightly raised his right hand to the air, and made a soft sound, as if something was bumping against the board wall.She looked around where the sound came from, and saw dozens of flies lying motionless on the opposite wall. She was very surprised, and stared intently, but saw a golden needle as thin as a hair stuck in the back of each fly.The needle is so thin that it is difficult to distinguish it from such a distance, but because the time is not yet ticked, the sun is slightly slanted, and when it shines into the window, the golden needle reflects light in the sunlight.

Flies were still buzzing around in the study room, the teacher raised his hand, and with a bang, another fly was nailed to the board.The girl thought this game was more fun than any other games, so she turned to the door, pushed the door open, and shouted, "Teacher, teach me this game!" This girl, Li Yuanzhi, is the only daughter of General Li Kexiu, who was born during his tenure as a general in Xiangxi. The name given to her daughter commemorates the place where she was born. The teacher, Lu Gaozhi, is a well-educated Confucian, aged fifty-four or five, and he talks about the past and the present with Li Yuanzhi on weekdays, and the teachers and students get along very well.On this day, because Lu Gaozhi couldn't bear the trouble of the bluebottles, he fired the hibiscus golden needles and nailed dozens of them to death, but his female disciple peeked out the window.Seeing Li Yuanzhi's delicate and bright face flushed with excitement, he said calmly, "Well, why don't you go play with your girlfriend and want to hear the story of Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu, don't you?" Li Yuanzhi said: " Teacher, did you teach me this fun method?" Lu Gaozhi said, "What method?"

Li Yuanzhi said: "The method of nailing flies with golden needles." He moved a chair, jumped on it, looked at it carefully for a while, pulled out the golden needles nailed to the flies one by one, wiped them clean with paper, Hand it back to the teacher, and said: "Teacher, I know, you are not a joke, it is a very brilliant martial arts, you must teach me." She sometimes followed her father in the martial arts training ground, and also learned some martial arts.Lu Gaozhi smiled and said: "If you want to learn martial arts, no one in the hundreds of miles around Fufeng City can match your father's martial arts skills." Li Yuanzhi said: "My father can only shoot eagles with bows and arrows, but he can't shoot flies with golden needles. , if you don't believe me, I'll ask daddy to see if he knows."

Lu Gaozhi pondered for a while, knowing that this female disciple is smart, she is used to being spoiled by her parents, she is a bit willful in her actions, she is not too old, she is not young, she is not easy to deal with, so she nodded and said: "Okay Come early tomorrow, and I will teach you. Now go and play by yourself. You are not allowed to tell others about my fly hunting, and no matter who knows, I will never teach you." Li Yuanzhi really didn't mention it to anyone, he just thought about it all night.The next morning, I came to the teacher's study room. When I opened the door, I saw no teacher. I saw a note on the desk under the paperweight. When I picked it up to read it, I saw that it read:

"Yuan Zhi's younger brother Qinglan: You are sensitive, eager to learn and ask questions, and you have learned such a thing, so what regrets you have. However, you have the heart of Lixue, but you are stupid without time and rain. For three years, you have no education. , The cause is all here, and there will be a period later. You have more than enough wisdom to change, but not enough stamina. The ancient saying is to cultivate both blessings and wisdom. Li Yuanzhi took the letter and was speechless, tears were rolling in his eyes, and he only said in his heart: "Teacher is lying, I won't come, I won't come!" At this moment, the door suddenly opened. Pushing away, a person stumbled in, it was the teacher Lu who had left a book as a farewell.But seeing that his face was pale and his upper body was covered with blood, he entered the door and was precarious. He held on to the chair, shook it a few times, and then fell down on the chair.Li Yuanzhi exclaimed: "Teacher!" Lu Gaozhi said: "Close the door, be quiet!" He closed his eyes and remained silent.After all, Li Yuanzhi was the daughter of the gatekeeper, she was used to wielding a knife and a spear, although she panicked, she still closed the gate as she said.

Lu Gaozhi breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Yuan Zhi, you and I have been teachers and students for three years, and we finally get along well. I thought our fate was over, but I didn't expect to meet again. My life is at stake, can you keep your mouth shut?" , didn’t you miss a word?” After speaking, his eyes sparkled and he looked straight at her.Li Yuanzhi said: "Teacher, I will listen to your orders." Lu Gaozhi said: "Tell your father that I am sick and have to rest for half a month." Li Yuanzhi agreed.Lu Gaozhi said again: "You don't need to call a doctor if you want your father, I will take care of it myself." After a while, he said: "You go!"

After Li Yuanzhi left, Lu Gaozhi struggled to take out the knife wound medicine and applied it to his left shoulder, wrapping it up with a cloth. He didn't want this effort, his eyes went dark, and he vomited a big mouthful of blood.
It turned out that the teacher, Lu Gaozhi, whose real name was Lu Feiqing, was a hero of the Wudang School. He traveled all over the country to fight for righteousness in his prime.The Dragon Slaying Gang was a secret anti-Qing gang. During the Yongzheng period, it was very powerful. Later, the Yongzheng and Qianlong dynasties severely suppressed it. In the 78th year of Qianlong, the Dragon Slaying Gang finally collapsed.Lu Feiqing went to the frontier.At that time, the Qing court sent people to hunt him down, but he was alert and strong in martial arts, so he was able to get out of the catastrophe, but the Qing court continued to strictly investigate and arrest him.Lu Feiqing thought of the principle of "the great hermit hides in the court, the middle hermit hides in the city, and the little hermit hides in the wild", so she went to Li Kexiu's mansion to set up a tent to teach.The people sent by the Qing government to search for him only thought of searching for him in green forests, monasteries, escort shops, martial arts fields and other places, but they never expected to find a well-mannered teacher in the government office, who was actually a criminal with outstanding martial arts skills.

That night, Lu Feiqing thought that the treasure had been exposed, and she could no longer live in this place, so she decided to leave a book to say goodbye.His luggage was in a state of desperation, he only had a few clothes with him, wrapped a mouthful of the White Dragon Sword in it, made a package, waited until the second watch, and planned to leave without looking for a good place. He sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes and meditated, he heard the sound of patrolling from a distance, suddenly there was a sound outside the window, and someone jumped in from the wall.Lu Feiqing jumped out of the bed, pulled up a corner of the robe and stuffed it in his belt, and gently pulled out the White Dragon Sword with the other hand.

Only a person outside the window spoke loudly: "Old man Lu, you have been hiding here as a teacher all your life, so people can't find you? Go obediently and go to Beijing to file a lawsuit with me!" There must be more than one person, the enemy is waiting for work outside, if you don't go out, you will be attacked immediately, if you go out from the window, you will be attacked immediately, immediately perform the gecko swimming skill, quietly go up the wall, grab the skylight lattice, make two clicks, break the pane, good luck With a wave of his palm, he jumped onto the roof amidst the flying tiles.The people below let out a "Hey", and an arrow shot up, shouting: "Good friend, don't run." Lu Feiqing stepped aside, and shouted in a low voice: "Friend, come with me." Running to the outskirts, I turned around and saw three figures chasing after one after another.

He ran for six or seven miles in one breath, and the three people behind him chased and scolded: "Hey, old man Lu, thanks to you, you are a famous person, so shameless, do you want to leave?" Lu Feiqing ignored him, Lead the three of them to a hill west of Fufeng City. He lured the enemy to a remote place so as not to disturb the host's mansion, and at the same time lured all the people who came, so as not to fall into the enemy's plot when he was in the open and the enemy was in the dark. While running, he could also detect the enemy's number and martial arts weak.He tightened his feet, and in an instant he was able to drive more than ten zhang away. Hearing the sound of the pursuers' footsteps, he knew that one of them was quite successful, while the other two were mediocre. Lu Feiqing came to the post and inserted the White Dragon Sword into the scabbard.Three pursuers rushed to him one after another, seeing him stop and turn around, they didn't dare to get too close. The three stood in a T-shape, one in front and two behind.Lu Feiqing stared at the man in front of him under the moonlight, and saw that he was about fifty years old, short and thin, with a swarthy face, two swallowtail beards, not too long, lean and vigorous, and his appearance was vaguely familiar.There are two people behind him, one is very tall and the other is a fat man. The thin man was the first to speak: "Hero Lu, eighteen years later, do you still recognize Jiao Wenqi?" Lu Feiqing's heart trembled: "It really is him?" It turned out that Jiao Wenqi was the third of the six demons in the Kanto region. Eighteen years ago, he was killing innocent people in Zhili. Lu Feiqing bumped into him and stopped him.Jiao Wenqi was humiliated and vowed to avenge this. This time, he was hired by a wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River and went to Tianshan North Road to search for an important person. On the way to the west, he accidentally learned of Lu Feiqing's whereabouts, so he led the Shaanxi Governor's Mansion The two masters came to seek revenge without notifying the local government and Li Kexiu. Lu Feiqing cupped his hands and said, "So it's Jiao Wenqi, Third Master Jiao. I haven't seen you for more than ten years, but I don't recognize them anymore. Who are these two, and Third Master Jiao will introduce them to me." Jiao Wenqi snorted with a smile on his face, pointing Pointing at the fat man, he said, "This is Luo Xin, my brother-in-law, known as the Iron-armed Arhat." Pointing to the tall man, he said, "This is the hero of the two lakes, Jade Judge Bei Renlong. How close are you?" Luo Xin said : "Jiu Yang." Bei Renlong raised his head to the sky and sneered slightly. Lu Feiqing said: "In the middle of the night, three people came to visit me. It's really unexpected. But I don't know what to teach?" Jiao Wenqi said coldly: "Hero Lu, eighteen years ago, I gave you a palm Zhici, this only blames me for not being good at learning, so I finally have hard bones and deserves to die. Over the past few years, I have learned more three moves and two styles of Maoquan, and I want to ask you to stop laughing and give pointers. This is selfish. Your old name is famous all over the world, and the imperial court wants you to settle a few official cases. The three of my brothers paid a sincere visit, and they came here to urge you, this is for the public." Lu Feiqing knew very well that tonight the victory must be decided by force, but he was a deep-rooted man. He had experienced many hardships over the years, and he handled things more steadily. He cupped his hands and said, "Jiao Sanye, you and I are both fifty or sixty years old. If I offend you, here is my apology!" After saying that, he gave a deep bow.Bei Renlong let out a "bah" and cursed loudly: "Shameless!" Lu Feiqing rolled her eyes, stared at him coldly, and said solemnly: "Lu Mou has traveled the rivers and lakes, and has been famous for decades. He has never done anything in his life that his martial arts friends look down upon." Turning his head to Jiao Wenqi, he said, "Jiao Sanye said that looking for me is not only for private purposes, but also for the public. Back then we were young and aggressive, so it's not worth laughing at this time. You, Jiao Sanye, will count it as a holiday back then, and I will compensate you here." After the ceremony. As for official business, the surname Lu is not so shameless, go to make eagle dogs for the Manchu Tartars. You want to use these old bones of mine to get promoted and get rich, hehe, please come and get it!" He said His eyes swept over the faces of the three people one by one, and he said, "Are the three going up at the same time? Or which one goes up first?" The big fat man Luo Xin shouted: "You said so much!" He rushed over and punched Lu Feiqing in the face.Lu Feiqing didn't dodge and didn't give way, waited until the fist was a few inches in front of him, and suddenly made a move, his left palm cut directly at the enemy's right fist.Luo Xin didn't expect the opponent to come so fast, he retreated three steps, Lu Feiqing didn't chase after him, Luo Xin regained his composure, unleashed the Five Elements Fist and attacked again. Jiao Wenqi and Bei Renlong watched from the sidelines, and they had their own plans.Jiao Wenqi is all about revenge. He has worked hard on the iron pipa all these years, and his skills have greatly improved. However, he had learned Lu Feiqing's Wuji Xuangong back then. Strength, if you play by yourself, you will surely win.But Bei Renlong only wanted to get the prisoner and asked the governor to recommend him a meritorious service. Luo Xin's five-element boxing moves are all on the offensive. Once a move is launched, the next move comes again, without delay. The five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth are mutually reinforcing and restraining each other continuously.He missed several hits, and he punched suddenly, using the word "split" in Wuxingquan. , hit the plate.Lu Feiqing's moves seemed slow but actually fast.In an instant, the two had disassembled more than ten moves.With Luo Xin's martial arts, how can he match more than ten moves?Because Lu Feiqing has restrained herself deeply in recent years, knowing that Luo Xin and these people are only greedy for fame and fortune, and the world is talking, they are really invincible, so when they make a move, they are quite tolerant. At this moment, Luo Xin was hanging with his "beng" fist, and then he was blocking with his "horizontal" fist, suddenly he disappeared, turned around quickly, saw that Lu Feiqing had circled behind him, in a hurry, he wanted to pull his wrist.He thought he was strong and strong, so he wasn't afraid to fight head-on, but he didn't know that Lu Feiqing's long sleeves fluttered back and forth, not only couldn't catch his wrist, but he didn't even touch his clothes.Luo Xin became anxious, his fist changed, and he used his grasping hand to grasp with both hands.Lu Feiqing didn't even fight back, just walked around beside him.After several moves, Luo Xin saw that there was an opportunity to take advantage of, and swung his right fist, expecting that Lu Feiqing would evade to the left, then he stretched out his hand to grab his left shoulder. A plump body flew out flatly, and with a bang, fell heavily two feet away.But he felt the golden stars bursting out in front of his eyes, he propped up his hands, sat up, couldn't figure it out for a long time, sat in a daze in a stupid way, and muttered cursing: "Mother Xiaozi, grandma Xiong, what's wrong?" It turned out that Lu Feiqing was using the best kung fu in the internal boxing, called "Eighteen Drops of the Clothes".If the skill is deep, the enemy will fall straight out as soon as they touch the clothes.Lu Feiqing's skill was not enough to make the enemy fall when he touched his clothes, but Luo Xin tried his best to grab it, and as soon as his hand touched his body, he used his strength to throw it out. Jiao Wenqi frowned, and shouted in a low voice: "Brother Luo Xian, get up!" Bei Renlong didn't make a sound, and rushed forward unexpectedly, with a move of "Double Dragons Grab the Pearl", he punched Lu Feiqing with both fists.Lu Feiqing swayed and disappeared.Bei Renlong suddenly felt that someone slapped him on the back, only to hear behind his back say: "Practice for another ten years!" Bei Renlong turned around quickly, but Lu Feiqing was gone again. He wanted to turn around again, but unexpectedly, he was slapped on the face twice, and he was slapped twice.Lu Feiqing yelled: "I'm rude, I'll teach you a lesson today." Because Long Shicai spoke harshly, Lu Feiqing beat him down very quickly as soon as he came up.One slap on the back, two palms on the face, as long as there is a little more force in any one move, Bei Renlong's muscles and bones will be broken and he will die instantly.But he is a martial arts senior, and he doesn't have the same knowledge as these people. Jiao Wenqi saw that Bei Renlong was at a disadvantage, so he jumped on it with a stride, but before he arrived, the palm of his hand arrived first.Lu Feiqing knew that the third demon among the six demons of Kanto was not comparable to the other two, so he didn't dare to tease him deliberately, so he immediately used his own Wuji Xuangong fist and dealt with it carefully.Jiao Wenqi's iron pipa hand was obtained from the true biography of the Han family in Luoyang. A "Waving Five Strings" was brushed towards Lu Feiqing. He is also the leader of Iron Sand Palm and Eagle Claw Kung Fu. Lu Feiqing saw that Jiao Wenqi's skill was very deep, not what it used to be, and said in a low voice: "Okay!" With a "tiger step", he stepped away from the front, took a step, and reached the side of Jiao Wenqi's right shoulder. ", hit his right armpit.Jiao Wenqi hurriedly spread his palms sideways, "covering the face with the pipa", protecting the body with his left palm, and "blaming the sword and gun" with his right hand, pointing at Lu Feiqing with two fingers in the middle of the bow.After seven or eight moves, Lu Feiqing was short, with a "sealed palm", the wind of the palm touched the opponent's front, he was kind-hearted, seeing Jiao Wenqi's decades of skill, he couldn't bear to let it go to waste. After exerting 50% of his strength, I hope he will know that he is ashamed and retire. Lu Feiqing was merciful, this palm was full of strength and returned slowly, and Jiao Wenqi knew that the other party would let him go, so he took advantage of the situation and went straight up. When Lu Feiqing laughed, his palm was about to shrink, and the front chest door was opened, suddenly his left palm " The flowing spring goes down the mountain", the five fingers have already cut a section under his left breast.Unexpectedly, Lu Feiqing was unable to dodge, and was attacked by Tie Pipi.But he is a famous Wudang master, even though he was defeated, he swung his palms together, sealed the door tightly, repeatedly dismissed Jiao Wenqi's follow-up attack, and retreated steadily. Irritable, it is inevitable that I will die on the barren mountain tonight. Jiao Wenqi won't be merciless when he succeeds, how can he let the opponent have a chance to breathe, "the silver bottle is broken suddenly", "the iron cavalry is outstanding", the powerful moves in the hands of Tie Pipa are as tight as each move.Lu Feiqing snorted, and Bai Longjian made three moves, all of which were attacking moves.Jiao Wenqi jumped up and down, dodged it, and shouted: "Let's go shoulder to shoulder, I'm going to do my best!" Bei Renlong didn't even talk, a pair of Wu hook swords divided up and down, left to the throat, right to stab the genitals, attacking Lu Feiqing.Although the Wu Hook sword is called a sword, it is actually a double hook, but there is an extra point on the hook head. In addition to the hook, pull, lock, and belt in the hook method, there is also a way to hold two swords.Double hooks are not included in the 18 kinds of weapons, they are extremely vicious and difficult to practice. When you first learn it, you are a little careless, either you are injured by the crescent hand guard, or you are restrained by your strength, and you can't make any moves. sharp.Seeing the double hooks coming out, Lu Feiqing paid attention immediately, and launched the "spring rain of apricot blossoms" and "three rings covering the moon" in the soft cloud swordsmanship, and attacked again and again.Luo Xin took out the seven-section steel whip, and joined the battle group, with great strength to attack Shen.Lu Feiqing didn't dare to touch the steel whip head-on with the blade, the sword moved lightly and cut off his fingers.Luo Xin let out an "ah" and jumped away.Jiao Wenqi slapped the iron plate, and it hit the back of Lu Feiqing's head with a loud clang. Jiao Wenqi learned martial arts at the Han family in Luoyang.The iron pipa player of the Han family reached great success in Han Wuniang. In addition to the palm technique, the weapon used is a pipa made of fine iron.The two sides of this pipa are sharp, like an ax when attacking, and a shield when keeping time. The belly of the pipa is hollow, and there are twelve pipa nails hidden in it.Jiao Wenqi thinks that the pipa is something that women play, and it is used in the Jianghu, and it is unbearable to be insulted by a frivolous person, so he made an iron plate with an ingenious shape, although the shape is different.The technique of using it is no different from the iron pipa handed down by Shimen. Hearing this, Lu Feiqing felt the wind blowing in the back of his head, turned his head to the left, hit the iron plate empty, and returned with a sword.His soft cloud swordsmanship continued continuously, Jiao Wenqi blocked the horizontal iron plate hard, and the Bailong sword followed the momentum of the iron plate to attack again.Regardless of fists, feet or weapons, once a move is made, if it is made again, it must be withdrawn and fired again. The magic of Rouyun swordsmanship is after the first move. Spring clouds. Bei Renlong and Luo Xin saw that Jiao Wenqi was being forced into a panic, they hurriedly attacked Lu Feiqing left and right from behind, and the three of them wrapped him in the middle with a card, a whip and a pair of double hooks.At this moment, Lu Feiqing felt a dull pain in his chest, knowing that the internal injury had started. Although Rouyun's swordsmanship was powerful, but just as he entangled one person, the other two immediately struck from the side.I had to break up to fight, and said in my heart: "I don't think I, Lu Feiqing, the first hero, will die at the hands of the rats today." Thinking that he was loyal, but was plotted against, he couldn't help being angry, and he rushed up with anger, and made repeated moves in danger. , I changed my mind, seeing today's defeat, I must get out of this difficulty first, and after recovering from my injuries, I will seek revenge from the Six Demons of the East.He has made up his mind, he doesn't want to kill the enemy on the spot, instead he is calm and calm. The internal martial arts emphasizes the stability of the mind. With this concentration, a white dragon sword envelops himself in all directions, no matter how the three opponents change their moves, and then Can't get in either. Luo Xin shouted: "Jiao Sanye, if we entangle him and won't win, are we afraid that we won't kill him?" Jiao Wenqi said: "Yes. Brother Luo will cut off the old man's head later to ask for credit." The dragon said: "His sword is good, Mr. Jiao, do I want it?" The three of them blew and sang, and they treated Lu Feiqing as a dead person, obviously to make him angry. Lu Feiqing swiped two swords at Luo Xin, and waited for him to dodge quickly, revealing a gap, and swung the White Dragon Sword "Flower Rain" in circles, and jumped out with a stride.Luo Xin yelled: "No way, I'm going to yell!" Lu Feiqing started his lightness kungfu lifting technique and ran down the mountain, already escaped from the encirclement, it is expected that these three people will not be able to catch up with him.As soon as Jiao Wenqi pressed the iron plate on the machine, the three pipa nails shot towards his vest with a gust of wind.Lu Feiqing swung his sword and hit the two pipa nails that were shot upwards, jumped with both feet, and dodged the one that was shot down three directions.He knew that the nails on the lute were full of barbs, once they penetrated into the meat, it was like taking root, like pulling it out with force, a large piece of meat would have to be pulled off, and if he stretched out his hand to catch it, he would be fooled.He dodged the hidden weapon and was about to run down the mountain, but he staggered and couldn't lift it up in one breath. At the same time, his chest hurt sharply, and his eyes were dark. Jiao Wenqi and the other three saw his gait scattered and knew that his internal injury had occurred, they were overjoyed and surrounded him again.Lu Feiqing danced his sword and fought, and the four of them made more than a dozen moves.Lu Feiqing felt that when his right arm was exerted, his left chest was in severe pain, so he put the sword in his left hand, and pressed the sword with his left hand towards Jiao Wenqi all the way.His left-handed swordsmanship is all backhand moves, which is the opposite of ordinary swordsmanship. Jiao Wenqi was caught by surprise and retreated a few steps.Lu Feiqing seized this opportunity and stabbed Bei Renlong with the sword "Baihong Guanri" in his left hand.Bei Renlong understood this move and dodged to the right, but unexpectedly the direction of the sword in his left hand was opposite, he dodged to the right, and the sword in his left hand followed.Bei Renlong was terrified, he couldn't dodge in time, he was quick-witted, fell to the ground, turned over several times, and rolled away.Lu Feiqing was about to catch up, when the wind came from the back of his head, Luo Xin's steel whip "mountain pressure" fell down, Lu Feiqing's feet did not move, and his upper body moved away, as fast as lightning, he stretched out his hand and touched Luo Xin's "pylorus point". , Luo Xin's steel whip was still about to come down, but the acupoints were touched, and he immediately fell limp, and when he let go of his hand, the steel whip remained strong, hitting the rocks, sparks looked around, and rebounded.At this moment, Jiao Wenqi's three pipa nails flew behind him, Lu Feiqing heard the sound of the hidden weapon rushing, no matter whether he jumped forward vertically or dodged left and right, it was too late, so he pulled Luo Xin who was limp on the ground to block it. With a sound of "Hey", three lutes nailed two hits on the chest and one hit the lower abdomen, Luo Xin was killed instantly.When Jiao Wenqi saw that the hidden weapon had hurt his brother, he became furious, raised the iron plate, and threw it at Lu Feiqing. Bei Renlong attacked again with double hooks, Lu Feiqing stabbed out with his long sword, seeing the sharpness of the sword, Bei Renlong leaped to the left, and Jiao Wenqi's iron plate followed.Seeing that Lu Feiqing turned around to fight, Bei Renlong was bound to attack again. Although the enemy was one less, his wounds were getting more and more painful. He didn't look back at the moment, leaned forward, and eliminated most of the iron plate's momentum, but after all Failed to dodge completely, the iron plate blade made a big cut on his left shoulder.Jiao Wenqi was overjoyed when he suddenly saw white light flashing, and the White Dragon Sword flew in front of him, flying straight towards Bei Renlong.Bei Renlong was shocked, and raised the Wu hook sword to block it. Although it was blocked, Lu Feiqing used all his strength to throw it with a heavy hand, but the force of the Wu hook failed to block it, and the white dragon sword pierced his chest. In, his back pierced out, nailing him to the ground. At this moment, Lu Feiqing turned around suddenly, Jiao Wenqi didn't have time to take back the iron plate, only felt a sharp pain on his face, and his eyes turned black.It turned out that Lu Feiqing threw out his shoulder and was hit by his iron plate. He threw the long sword and shot back a lotus gold needle towards his face. Both eyes were completely blinded.While Lu Feiqing was scratching and groping his face with his hands, he straddled his hands and "stretched the whip" with both fists, killing him in person. Lu Feiqing displayed his life's unique skills, killing three enemies in a row with acupuncture points, slamming stele hands, and hibiscus golden needles. It was cold and windy on the barren mountain, and a waning moon appeared from the clouds, and saw three corpses lying on the rocks. In the distant forest, the night owl screamed strangely. Although he was brave and talented, he couldn't help being shocked. Tear off the skirt, cover the wound on the left shoulder, stand still and breathe evenly, then pull out the sword and wipe it into the sheath.He was afraid that he would leave a clue, so he pulled out the gold needle on Jiao Wenqi's face and hid it, then threw the three corpses into the barren hills.
At that time, I was exhausted from breathing and my whole body was covered with blood. I thought to myself that if I went to the shop, it would attract suspicion, so I went back to Li's house to change clothes and wash before leaving. Unexpectedly, Li Yuanzhi was already in the study in the early morning.When Li Yuanzhi withdrew, he fell onto the bed, his chest hurt so badly that he passed out.I don't know how much time has passed. In a daze, he only felt that someone was pushing each other, and he heard someone calling: "Teacher! Teacher!" He slowly opened his eyes, and saw Li Yuanzhi standing in front of the bed with a look of surprise on his face. doctor. After more than two months of recuperation, relying on his pure internal strength, and Li Yunzhi begged his father to hire a famous doctor and buy good medicine, the internal injury was finally cured.In the past two months or so, Li Yuanzhi has been a guardian and attendant, doing his best. On this day, Lu Feiqing's envoy opened the bookboy and said to Li Yuanzhi: "Yunzhi, although you may not know what kind of person I am, you don't necessarily know completely. This time I encountered a catastrophe, and you served me so wholeheartedly I can't just walk away. I'll pass on the golden needle skill to you." Li Yunzhi was overjoyed, knelt down and respectfully kowtowed eight times. She had already paid homage to Lu Feiqing for studying and writing. Master, this is the second apprenticeship.Lu Feiqing accepted it with a smile, and said: "You have a very high level of comprehension, and it would be great to learn my martial arts. It's just..." At this point, she fell silent. Li Yuanzhi hurriedly said: "Teacher, I will definitely listen to you." Lu Feiqing said: "Honestly speaking, I don't think so much about your father's actions. When you grow up in the future, I hope you can distinguish right from wrong and distinguish good from bad. You beg me As a teacher, you have to strictly abide by the precepts of the teacher, can you do it?" Li Yuanzhi said: "I dare not disobey the teacher's words." Lu Feiqing said: "If you use the kung fu I taught you to do evil in the future, I will take your life easily. "When he said this, his voice was stern, Li Yuanzhi was too frightened to make a sound, after a while, he smiled and said: "Master, I am good, why are you willing to kill me?" From that day on, Lu Feiqing taught her the Wudang School's basic Kungfu, teaching her to adjust her mind and improve her energy. She first practiced from Shiduanjin, and then learned thirty-two postures of Changquan. It's quite hot, and then teach her the basic skills of eye training, ear training, playing marbles, throwing arrows and other hidden weapons.After more than two years, Li Yuanzhi is both hardworking and smart, making rapid progress.At that time, Li Kexiu had been transferred to the general army of Anxi Town, Gansu Province.Connecting Hami in the northwest and the desert in the west, An is an important town outside the pass. After more than two years, Lu Feiqing also taught her Rouyun Swordsmanship and Furong Golden Needle.In the past five years, Li Yuanzhi has learned all the golden needles, swordsmanship, light kung fu, and boxing skills. The only difference is that he is not yet ready and lacks experience.She obeyed her master's order and kept silent about learning martial arts from him. She practiced in the back garden by herself every day. Fortunately, she loved martial arts since she was a child, and no one suspected her.The eldest lady practiced kung fu, but the servant girl couldn't understand it, and the male servant didn't dare to watch it too much. Li Kexiu is shrewd and capable, and his official career is prosperous. In the 23rd year of Qianlong's reign, he made great contributions to the pacification of Yili. After the decree came down, he was promoted to the admiral of Zhejiang Province. He was in charge of five towns including Hai and Wenzhou. Naval camps such as Taihu Lake and Haining.Li Yuanzhi grew up in the northwest frontier, now he wants to go to Jiangnan with beautiful mountains and rivers, he is so happy that he can't describe it, so he landed on Lu Feiqing to go with him.Lu Feiqing has been away from the mainland for a long time, and thinking of revisiting the old place, she will be happy, so she readily agrees. Li Kexiu Qingqi went to the post first, dispatched twenty personal soldiers and one general to escort her family members to follow.The name of the participating general was Zeng Tunan. He was about forty years old, with a short beard, vigorous spirit, and a strong physique. He could wield a Liuhe spear.He was promoted by real kung fu, and he gained Li Kexiu's trust. A group of more than ten mules and horses.Mrs. Li sat in the car.Li Yunzhi traveled long distances, sat in the car all day and felt bored, but the lady from the official family rode a horse to show her face, she was not good-looking after all, so she changed into men's clothing, this modification turned out to be strangely handsome and coquettish, she refused to change anything Back to women's clothing.Mrs. Li could only smile and sigh, letting her go. It was late autumn on this day, and Lu Feiqing was riding a horse, far behind the group. Looking around, he saw that the night was getting darker, and on the long ancient road outside the Great Wall, apart from their group of mules and horses, there was only yellow sand and decaying grass. , Returning to the crows in bursts.Suddenly there was a gust of wind blowing from the west, and Lu Feiqing chanted: "The general has lost his reputation in all battles, and he looks back thousands of miles to Heliang. The old man is dead. The water in Yishui is bleak and the west is cold, and the clothes are like snow. "Xin Jiaxuan said in his heart: "Xin Jiaxuan's poem can exactly describe my mood. Back then, he was just like me. He saw the vast land of China fell to the barbarians, and the captives were in full swing. It was difficult to recover, and after a hundred battles, he sang a generous elegy. At this time, he was nearly sixty years old. Although his internal strength was profound and he was full of energy, his beard and eyebrows were all white, and he thought: "My beard and hair are like snow. I am afraid that I will not be able to do anything after nine deaths." With a wave of the horsewhip , and galloped his horse to catch up. The mule team turned over a hill, and seeing that it was getting dark, the mule driver said that in ten miles, he would arrive at Shuangtabao, a big town outside the Great Wall, and he was scheduled to drop off in the town that night.At this moment, Lu Feiqing suddenly heard the sound of galloping horses coming from ahead, and saw in the shadow of Zhengchen in front of him, two jujube horses were flying over, galloping towards them, and in the blink of an eye, they had come to him like a whirlwind.Immediately, the two bowed their waists and reined in the reins, and slashed across both sides of the mule team in a diagonal stab. From a face-to-face meeting, Lu Feiqing could tell that one was tall and the other was short, the tall one had long eyebrows and a straight nose, and a fair complexion, while the short one was full of vigor.He patted his horse and caught up with Li Yuanzhi, and asked in a low voice: "Did you see these two people clearly?" Li Yuanzhi said happily: "What? Is it the Green Forest Road?" A skill learned hard over the past five years.Lu Feiqing said: "I still can't tell for sure, but judging by the martial arts of these two people, they can't be the young fellows who explore the road in the green forest." Li Yuanzhi wondered: "These two people have good martial arts?" Most of the skills are not mediocre." The team was approaching the Shuangtabao, and there was a sound of horseshoes on the opposite side, and two more horses galloped over, passing the mule team.Lu Feiqing said: "Hey, that's strange." At this time, the dusk was dark, and the road was full of deserts and poor villages. He saw the Twin Towers Castle in front of him. Why did people come out of the town at this time, unless they had something important to do on purpose? It's night time. Not long after the trip, the mule team entered the town. General Zeng Shen led the mule team car and drove straight to a big shop. Li Yuanzhi and his mother live in the upper house.Lu Feiqing lived in a small room. After dinner, the clerk was waiting to take a rest with a lamp in his hand. In the quiet of the night, amidst the barking of dogs, the sound of horseshoes in the distance could be faintly heard.Lu Feiqing thought to himself: "I'm still on my way at this moment, what's the rush?" The four people I met one after another on the way of thinking, thought to myself that this was a bit weird.The sound of hoofbeats was heard, and the closer he went, he went straight to the front of the shop. As soon as the sound of horseshoes stopped, there was a knock on the door.The shopkeeper opened the door and said, "You've been working hard. The tea, wine and food are all ready, please come in and use them!" One said in a rough voice, "Hurry up and feed the horses, you have to go on your way after dinner." The shopkeeper kept saying promise.The sound of footsteps entering the shop sounded like there were two people in total. Lu Feiqing thought about it, and a group of people rushed to Anxi, seeing that they were all masters of martial arts. In the past many years outside the Great Wall, such things are really rare.He went out of the room lightly, walked through the courtyard, and walked around to the back of the inn, only to hear the man who spoke harshly just now say: "Third brother, you said that the young helmsman is young, can he hold back this group of brothers? "Lu Feiqing followed the sound and walked to the window. He didn't intend to eavesdrop on other people's secrets, but this group of people had a strange way of life, and he had a serious case on his body, so he had to be careful everywhere.I only heard another person in the room say: "If you can't suppress it, you have to suppress it. This is the old master's will. Regardless of whether the young helmsman succeeds or not, we will always protect him with all sincerity and loyalty." This man's voice was loud and full of energy, Lu Feiqing knew that he had superb internal skills, so she didn't dare to break the window paper to spy, and just listened with bated breath.Just listen to the rough voice: "That's needless to say? I don't know if the young helmsman is willing to go out of the mountain." Another person said: "Then don't worry, the old master's last order, the young helmsman will abide by it." He said The word "Shou" has a strong accent of the southerners. Lu Feiqing was startled: "Why is this voice so familiar?" After careful consideration, she finally remembered that it was Zhao Banshan, a good friend from the Dragon Slayer Gang.That person was ten years younger than him, and he was the head disciple of the Wenzhou Wang family's Taiji School.The two often practice martial arts and admire each other.It has been nearly twenty years since we separated, and he is almost fifty years old.After the dragon-slaying gang disbanded, they didn't know where he was. Unexpectedly, they met outside the Great Wall today, meeting an old acquaintance in a foreign land, the joy is indescribable.He was about to recognize his friend out loud, when suddenly the lights in the room went dark, and a sleeve arrow shot out. This sleeve arrow was not aimed at Lu Feiqing, a figure flashed, and someone reached out to catch the sleeve arrow.As soon as the man grew up, he opened his mouth and wanted to scream.Lu Feiqing jumped over and shouted in a low voice: "Be quiet, follow me!" The man was Li Yuanzhi.There was no movement in the window, and no one chased them out. Lu Feiqing took her hand, stalked like a tiger, sneaked under the window, and pulled her into his shop.Looking under the lamp, she saw that she had changed into a nocturnal attire, but it was still a men's attire, and she didn't know when she was ready to put it off. She had an eager look on her face, and she couldn't help being angry and funny, Zhuang Rong said immediately: "Yuan Zhi,你知那是甚么人？干么要跟他们动手？”这一下可把李沅芷问得张口结舌，答不上来，呆了半晌，才忸怩道：“他们干么打我一袖箭？”她自是只怪别人，殊不知自己偷听旁人阴私，已犯了江湖大忌。陆菲青道：“这两人如不是绿林道，就是帮会中的。内中一人我知道，武功决不在你师父之下。他们定有急事，是以连夜赶路。这枝袖箭也不是存心伤人，只不过叫你别多管闲事。真要射你，怕就未必接得住。快去睡吧。”说话之间，只听开门声、马蹄声，那两人已急速走了。给李沅芷这样一闹，陆菲青心想这时去见老友，多有不便，也不追出去会面。 次日骡队又行，出得镇来，走了一个多时辰，离双塔堡约已三十里。李沅芷道：“师父，对面又有人来了。”只见两骑枣红马奔驰而来。有过了昨晚之事，师徒俩对迎面而来之人都留上了心。两匹马一模一样，神骏非凡，更奇的是马上乘客也一模一样，都是四十左右年纪，身材又高又瘦，脸色蜡黄，眼睛凹进，眉毛斜斜的倒垂下来，形相甚是可怖，显然是一对孪生兄弟。 这两人经过骡队时都怪目一翻，向李沅芷望了一眼。李沅芷也向他们瞪了一眼，把马一勒，一副要打架不妨上来的神色。这两人毫不理会，径自催马西奔。李沅芷道：“哪里找来这么一对瘦鬼？” 陆菲青见这两人的背影活像是两根竹竿插在马上，蓦地醒觉，不由得失声道：“啊，原来是他们！”李沅芷忙问：“师父识得他们？”陆菲青道：“那定是西川双侠，江湖上人称黑无常、白无常的常家兄弟。”李沅芷噗嗤一笑，说道：“他们姓得真好，绰号也好，可不是一对无常鬼吗？”陆菲青道：“女孩子家别风言风语的，人家长得难看，本领可不小！我跟他们没会过面，但听人说，他俩是双生兄弟，从小形影不离。哥儿俩也不娶亲，到处行侠仗义，闯下了很大的万儿来。尊敬他们的称之为西川双侠，怕他们的就叫他俩黑无常、白无常。”李沅芷道：“这两人不是一模一样吗？怎么又有黑白之分？” 陆菲青道：“听人说，常家兄弟身材相貌完全一样，就是哥哥眼角上多了一粒黑痣，所以起名叫做常赫志，弟弟没痣，叫常伯志。他们是青城派慧侣道人的徒弟。慧侣道人一死，黑沙掌的功夫，江湖上多半没人在他二人之上了。这两兄弟是川江上著名的侠盗，一向劫富济贫，不过心狠手辣，因此得了这难听的外号。”李沅芷道：“他们到这边塞来干么呀？”陆菲青道：“我也真捉摸不定，从来没听说他两兄弟在塞外做过案。”李沅芷道：“这对无常鬼要是敢来动我们的手，就让他们试试师父的白龙剑。”刚才这对兄弟瞪了她一眼，姑娘心中可不乐意了，不好意思说“试试姑娘的宝剑”，就把师父先给拉扯上。陆菲青道：“听说他兄弟从不单打独斗，对付一个是两哥儿齐上，对付十个也是两哥儿齐上。”他干笑一声：“你师父这把老骨头，怕经不起他们四个拳头捶呢！” 说话之间，前面马蹄声又起。这次马上乘的是一道一俗。道人背负长剑，脸色苍白，满是病容，只有一只右臂，左手道袍的袖子束在腰里。另一人是个驼子，衣服极为光鲜。李沅芷见这驼子相貌丑陋，服饰却如此华丽，不觉笑了一声，说道：“师父，你瞧这驼子！”陆菲青待要阻止，已然不及。 那驼子怒目一横，双马擦身而过之际，突然伸臂向李沅芷抓来。那道人似乎早料到驼子要生气，不等李沅芷避让，就伸马鞭一挡，拦开了他这一抓，说道：“十弟，不可闹事！”这只是一瞬间之事，两匹马已交错而过。 陆菲青和李沅芷回头一望，只见驼子挥鞭在他自己和道人的马上各抽了一鞭，两匹马疾驰出去，那驼子突然间一个“倒栽金钟”，在马背上一个倒翻筋斗，跳下地来，双脚在地上交互三点，已向李沅芷扑了过来。李沅芷长剑在手，谨守师父所授“敌未动，己不动”的要诀，剑尖微颤，却不发招。那驼子可也奇怪，并不向她攻击，左手探出，竟是一把拉住她坐骑的尾巴。那马正在奔驰，忽被拉住，长嘶一声，前足人立起来。驼子神力惊人，丝毫没被马拉动，伸出右掌，在拉得笔直的马尾上一划，马尾立断，如经刀割。马儿直冲出去，李沅芷吓了一跳，险些掉下马来。她回手挥剑向驼子砍去，距离已远，却哪里砍得着？驼子回头便跑。他身矮足短，奔跑却是极快，有如滚滚黄沙中裹着一个肉球向前卷去，顷刻间已追及那疾驰向西的坐骑，一跃上马，不一会就不见踪影了。 李沅芷被驼子这样一闹，气得想哭，委委屈屈的叫了一声：“师父！” 陆菲青一切全看在眼里，不由得蹙起眉头，本想埋怨几句，但见她双目莹然，珠泪欲滴，就忍住不说了。
正在这时，忽听身后传来一阵“我武——维扬——”“我武——维扬——”的喊声。 李沅芷甚是奇怪，忙问：“师父，那是甚么？”陆菲青道：“那是镖局里趟子手喊的趟子。每家镖局子的趟子不同，喊出来是通知绿林道和同道朋友。镖局走镖，七分靠交情，三分靠本领，镖头手面宽，交情广，大家买他面子，这镖走出去就顺顺利利。绿林道的一听趟子，知是某人的镖，本想动手拾的，碍于面子也只好放他过去。这叫作'拳头熟不如人头熟'。要是你去走镖哪，嘿，这样不上半天就得罪了多少人，本领再大十倍，那也是寸步难行。”李沅芷一听，敢情师父是借题发挥，在教训人啦，心说：“我干么要去保镖哪？”可是不敢跟师父顶嘴，笑道：“师父，我是错了嘛！师父，那喊的是甚么镖局子啊？”陆菲青道：“那是北京镇远镖局，北方可数他最大啦。奉天、济南、开封、太原都有分局。总镖头本是威镇河朔王维扬，现下总有七十岁了罢？听他们喊的趟子仍是'我武维扬'，那么他还没告老收山。唉，见好也该收了，镇远镖局发了四十年财，还不知足么？” 李沅芷道：“师父识得他们总镖头么？”陆菲青道：“也会过面。此人凭一把八卦刀、一对八卦掌，当年打遍江北绿林无敌手，也真称得上威震河朔！”李沅芷很是高兴，道：“他们镖车走得快，一会儿赶了上来，你给我引见，让我见见这位老英雄。”陆菲青道：“他自己怎么还会出来？真是傻孩子。” 李沅芷老是给师父数说，满不是味儿，她知自己江湖上的事情完全不懂，心里嘀咕：“我不懂，就说给我听嘛，干么老骂人家？”拍马追上骡车去和母亲说话解闷，回头一看自己的马，尾巴给驼子弄断了，也不禁暗暗吃惊，心想一掌打断一杆枪并不稀奇，马尾巴是软的，怎能用手割断？勒马想等师父上来请问，但一转念，又赌气不问了，追上了曾图南，道：“曾参将，我的马尾巴不知怎么断了，真难看。”说着嘟起了嘴。曾图南知她心意，道：“我这坐骑不知怎么搞的，今儿老是闹倔脾气，说甚么也制它不了。小姐骑术好，劳你的驾，帮我治一下行么？”李沅芷谦逊一句：“怕我也不成。”两人换了坐骑。曾参将那马其实乖乖的，半点脾气也没有。曾参将还赞一句：“小姐，真有你的，连马也服你。” 李夫人怕大车走快了颠簸，是以这队人一直缓缓而行。但听得镖局的趟子声越喊越近，不一会，二十几匹骡驮赶了上来。 陆菲青怕有熟人，背转了身，将一顶大草帽遮住半边脸，偷看马上镖师。七八名镖师纵马经过，只听一名镖师道：“听韩大哥说，焦文期焦三哥已有了下落。”陆菲青大吃一惊。回头看那镖师，晃眼间只看到他满脸胡子，黑漆漆的一张长脸，等他擦身而过，见他背上负着一个红色包袱，还有一对奇形兵器，竟是外门中的利器五行轮，寻思：“遮莫关东六魔做了镖师？”关东六魔除焦文期外，其余五人都未见过，只知每人均是武艺高强，五魔阎世魁、六魔阎世章都使五行轮，外家硬功夫极是了得。 他心下盘算，这次出门来遇到不少武林高手，镇远镖局看情形真的是在走镖，那也罢了，另外那些人如果均是为己而来，那实是凶多吉少，避之犹恐不及，偏偏这个女弟子少不更事，不断去招惹人家。不过看情形又不像是为自己而来，赵半山是好朋友，决不致不念旧情。那么他们一批一批西去，又为的何来？ 李沅芷和曾参将换了坐骑，见他骑了没尾巴马，暗自好笑，勒定了马等师父过来，笑道：“师父，怎么对面没人来了？从昨天算起，已有五对人往西去了，我倒真想再见识见识几个英雄好汉。” 一句话提醒了陆菲青，他一拍大腿，说道：“啊，老胡涂啦，怎么没想到'千里接龙头'这回事。”只因心中挂着自己的事，尽往与自己有关的方面去推测，哪知全想岔了。李沅芷道：“甚么'千里接龙头'？”陆菲青道：“那是江湖上帮会里最隆重的礼节，通常是帮会中行辈最高的六人，一个接着一个前去迎接一个人，最隆重的要出去十二人，一对一对的出去。现在已过了五对，那么前面一定还有一对。”李沅芷道：“他们是甚么帮会？”陆菲青道：“这个可不知道了。”又道：“你看西川双侠和那驼子都是这帮会的，声势当真非同小可。千万别再招惹，知道么？”李沅芷嘴上答应，心中可不大服气，一心要看前面来的又是何等样人。
午时打过了尖，对面仍无人来，陆菲青暗暗纳罕，觉得事出意外，难道所料不对？岂知前面没人来，后面倒来了人，只听得一阵驼铃响，尘上飞扬，一大队沙漠商队赶了上来。 待得渐行渐近，只见数十匹骆驼夹着二三十匹马，乘者都是回人，高鼻深目，满脸浓须，头缠白布，腰悬弯刀。回族商人从回部到关内做生意，事属常有，陆菲青也不以为异。突然间眼前一亮，一个黄衫女郎骑了一匹青马，纵骑小跑，轻驰而过。那女郎秀美中透着一股英气，光采照人，当真是丽若春梅绽雪，神如秋蕙披霜，两颊融融，霞映澄塘，双目晶晶，月射寒江。 陆菲青见那回族少女人才出众，不过多看了一眼，李沅芷却瞧得呆了。她自幼生长西北边塞，一向也没见过几个头脸齐整的女子，更别说如此好看的美人了。那少女和她年事相仿，大约也是十八九岁，腰插匕首，长辨垂肩，一身鹅黄衫子，头戴金丝绣的小帽，帽边插了一根长长的翠绿羽毛，革履青马，旖旎如画。那黄衫女郎纵马而过，李沅芷情不自禁的催马跟去，目不转睛的盯着她。 黄衫女郎见一个美貌的汉人少年痴痴相望，脸一红，叫了一声“爹！”一个身材高大、满颊浓须的回人拍马过来，在李沅芷肩上轻轻一拍，说道：“喂，小朋友，走道么？”李沅芷“唔”了一声，还没会意自己女扮男装，这般呆望人家闺女可显得十分浮滑无礼。 那黄衫女郎只道李沅芷心存轻薄，手挥马鞭一圈，已裹住她坐骑的鬃毛，回手一拉，登时扯下了一大片毛来。那马痛得乱跳乱纵，险些把她颠下马来。黄衫女郎长鞭在空中一挥，辟拍一声，扯下来的马毛四散乱飞。 李沅芷心头火起，摸出一枝钢镖，向黄衫女郎后心掷去，可也没存心伤她性命，镖一出手，叫了一声：“喂，小姑娘，镖来啦！”那女郎身子向左一偏，镖从右肩旁掠过，射向前面，待钢镖飞至身前丈许，手中长鞭一卷，鞭梢革绳已将钢镖卷住拉回，顺手向后一送，叫道：“喂，小伙子，镖还给你！”一股劲风，钢镖直向李沅芷胸前飞来，李沅芷伸手接住。 沙漠商队人众见了黄衫女郎这手马鞭绝技，都大声喝彩。她父亲却脸有忧色，低声向她说了句甚么话。黄衫女郎答应道：“噢，爹！”也不再理会李沅芷，纵马向前，数十匹驼马跟着绝尘而去。眼见他们追过李夫人所乘骡车和护送兵丁，尘沙扬起，蹄声渐远。 陆菲青漫不在意，笑道：“能人好手，所在都有，这句话现下信了吧？这个黄衫女郎年纪跟你差不多，刚才露这一手可佩服了？”李沅芷道：“这些回子白天黑夜都在马上，马鞭儿自然耍得好，可也未必有甚么真正武功。”陆菲青嘻嘻一笑，道：“是么？”
傍晚到了布隆吉，镇上只有一家大客店，叫做“通达客栈”。店门前插了“镇远镖局”的镖旗，原来路上遇到的那枝镖已先在这里歇了。这家客栈接连招呼两大队人，伙计忙得不可开交。 陆菲青洗了脸，手里捧了一壶茶，慢慢踱到院子里，只见大厅上有两桌人在喝酒吃饭。那背负红布包袱的镖师背上兵器已卸了下来，但那包袱仍然背着，正在高谈阔论。 陆菲青手里捧了茶壶，假装抬头观看天色，只听一名镖师笑道：“阎五爷，你将这玩意儿平平安安的送到京城，兆惠将军还不赏你个千儿八百的吗？又好去跟你那小喜宝乐上一乐啦！”陆菲青心说：“果然是关东六魔中的第五魔阎世魁。”当下更加留上了神。那阎世魁道：“赏金吗？嘿，那谁也短不了……”他话还未说完，一个阴阳怪气的声音插嘴道：“就只怕小喜宝已经跟了人，从了良啦。”陆菲青斜眼一看，见说话那人相貌猥琐，身材瘦削，但也是一身镖师打扮。阎世魁心中不快，“哼”了一声。第一个说话的镖师道：“童兆和你这东西，总没好话。”那童兆和仍是有气没力的道：“从良不是好话？好吧，我说小喜宝做一辈子的窑姐儿，到死翻不了身。”阎世魁破口大骂：“你妈才做一辈子窑姐儿。”童兆和笑道：“成，我叫你干爹。” 陆菲青听这伙人言不及义，听不出甚么名堂，正想走开。只听童兆和道：“阎五爷，玩笑是玩笑，正经是正经。你可别想小喜宝想昏了头，背上这红包袱给人家拾了去。你脑袋搬家事小，咱们镇远镖局四十年的威名可栽不起。”阎世魁怒道：“童家小子，你望安吧，这批回回想从你阎五爷手上把这玩意儿夺回去，教他们快死了这条心。我阎世魁关东六魔的名头，可是靠真功夫挣来的，不像有些小子在镖行里混，除了会吃饭，就是会放屁！”陆菲青望了他背上那红布包袱一眼，见包袱不大，看来所装的东西也很轻巧。只听童兆和道：“关东六魔的名头的确不小，就可惜第三魔给人家做了，连仇人是谁也不知道。”阎世魁一拍桌子道：“谁说不知道？那定是红花会害的。” 陆菲青心想：“这倒奇了，焦文期明明是我杀的，他们却写在红花会帐上。红花会是怎么一回事？”他慢慢走到院子里去抚弄花木，离众镖客更加近了。 童兆和嘴头上一点也不肯放松：“我可惜没骨气，只会吃饭放屁。只要我不是孙子哪，早就找红花会算帐去啦。”阎世魁给他气得发抖，说不出话来。一名镖师出来打圆场，道：“红花会总舵主于万亭上个月死在无锡，江湖上谁都知道。人家没了当家的，你找谁去？再说，焦三爷给红花会害死，又没见证，谁瞧见啦？你找上门去，人家来个不认帐，你有甚么法子？”童兆和没了话，自己解嘲：“红花会咱们不敢惹，欺侮回子还不敢么？他们当作性命宝贝的玩意儿咱们给抢了来，以后兆将军要银子要牛羊，他们敢不双手送上吗？我说阎五爷，你也别想你那小喜宝啦，敢情回京求求兆将军，让他给你一个回回女人做小老婆，可有多美……” 正说得得意，忽然拍的一声，不知哪里一块泥巴飞来，刚塞在他嘴里。童兆和啊啊啊的叫不出声来。两名镖师抄起兵刃，赶了出去。阎世魁站起身来，把身旁五行轮提在手里。他弟弟阎世章闻声赶来，两兄弟站在一起，并不追敌，显是怕中了敌人的调虎离山之计。童兆和把泥块吐了出来，王八羔子、祖宗十八代的乱骂。阎世章冷冷的道：“一向只听说狗吃屎，今儿可长了见识，连泥巴也吃起来啦！” 镖师戴永明、钱正伦一个握了条软鞭，一个挺着柄单刀，从门外奔回，说：“点子逃啦，没瞧见。” 这一切陆菲青全看在眼里，见到那口齿轻薄的童兆和一副狼狈相，心中暗自好笑，忽见东墙角上人影一闪。他装着没事人般踱方步踱到外面，其时天色已黑，他躲在客店西墙脚下，只见一条人影从屋角跳下，落地无声，向东如飞奔去。 陆菲青想见识这位请童兆和吃泥巴的是何等样人物，施展轻功，悄没声的跟在后面，双手仍是捧着茶壶，长衫也不捋起。他数十年苦练的轻功直是非同小可，虽然出步迅速，前面那人却丝毫未觉。片刻之间，两人奔出了五六里地。前面那人身材苗条，体态婀娜，似乎是个女子，但轻功也甚高明。过了个山坡，前面黑压压一片森林，那人直穿入林中，陆菲青也跟着追去。树林中落叶枯枝，满地皆是，一踏上去，沙沙作声，他怕那人发觉。脚步稍慢，一瞬之间，已不见了那人的影子。忽然云破月现，一片清光在林隙树梢上照射下来，满地树影凌乱，远处黄衫一闪，那人已出了树林。 他跟到树林边缘，掩在一株大树后面向外张望，林外一大片草地，搭着八九个帐篷。他好奇心起，有心要窥探一番。静待两名守望者转过身去，提气一个“燕子三抄水”，跃到了帐篷外一匹骆驼身后，守望者并未发觉。他弯身走到中间一座最大的帐篷背后，伏下地来，帐篷里有人在慷慨激昂的说话，话是回语，说的又快，他虽在塞外多年，这篇话却大半不懂，当下轻轻掀起帐幕底脚一角，向里张望。 帐幕中点着两盏油灯，许多人坐在地毡之上，便是白天遇到的那回人商队。这时一个清脆的声音咭咭咯咯的说起话来，陆菲青移眼望去，见说话的正是那黄衫少女。她话声一停，手腕一翻，从腰间
