Huang Rong held Mu Nianci's right hand, looked at the falling flowers on the water, and said, "I saw him kill Ouyang Ke, I only thought he would turn from evil to righteousness, and I saw two masters of the beggar gang respectfully pick him up. I knew the uncle of the beggar gang before, and knew that he was Qigong's trusted subordinate. Since he treated him like this, I liked him in my heart, so I walked with him. "After arriving in Yuezhou, the Beggars' Clan met Junshan. He whispered to me in advance: Master Hong had a will to take over as the leader of the Beggars' Clan. The elders with the highest status also respect him very much, but I can't help but not believe it. I am not a member of the beggar gang, so I can't go to the meeting, so I waited for him in Yuezhou City, thinking in my heart, once he leads the beggar gang, he must If I can do great things for the country and the people, I will surely be able to kill big bandits in the future and avenge my adoptive father and mother. This night I was thinking about things, but I couldn’t sleep. I only felt that everything was perfect. He didn't feel tired until dawn, and was about to fall asleep when he suddenly jumped in from the window.

"I was taken aback, and said that he suddenly had the idea of ​​messing around again. But he said in a low voice: "Sister, something is wrong, let's go." I asked the reason in surprise, and he said: "There has been an outbreak in the gang of beggars." Internal rebellion, the Dirty Clothes faction refused to accept the last order of the leader Hong. The Jingyi faction and the Dirty Clothes faction had a big fight over the establishment of a new leader, and many people were killed. I was shocked and asked: "What should I do?" He said: "I have seen too many hurting people, so I am willing to give in and not be a gang leader." I want to take care of the overall situation, and that is the only way. He said: "But the elders of the Clean Clothes Sect did not let me go, fortunately It was only because of the help of the leader of the Iron Palm Gang, Qiu, that we had to leave Junshan. Now let’s go to the Tiezhang Mountain to avoid it.”

"When I arrived on the Iron Palm Mountain, the leader Qiu of the Iron Palm Gang didn't see him either, but I watched the Iron Palm Gang secretly and sneakily, showing evil ways everywhere, so I said to him: 'Even if you back down, don't be a gang of beggars. I think you should go to your master Changchunzi Daoist Qiu and ask him to invite heroes from all corners of the country to uphold justice, and the heroes of the Beggars' Sect will elect a highly respected person from the gang to be the leader , so as not to kill each other in the gang, and to bear the great trust of Master Hong to you." He hesitated and said no, but only mentioned the matter of marrying me. I said a few words to him harshly , he was also angry, and the two had a quarrel.

"After a day, I gradually regretted it. I thought that although he didn't distinguish between the serious and the serious, and only cared about the love of his children, he always treated me well, and it was no wonder that I blamed him more seriously. He was annoyed. That night, the more I thought about it, the more uneasy I became, so I lit the lamp and wrote a note to excuse him. I quietly walked to his window, and was about to slip the note in through the crack when I heard He was talking to someone. I looked through the window and saw the other person was a short old man with a white beard, wearing a yellow kudzu shirt and holding a big sunflower fan in his hand."

Guo Jing and Huang Rong looked at each other, thinking, "Is it Qiu Qianren or Qiu Qianzhang?" I only heard Mu Nianci continue: "The old man took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, put it on the table, and said in a low voice: 'Brother Yang, it's easy for your untrained wife to refuse to submit. Hurry up, you put some of the medicine powder in the bottle into the green tea and give her a drink, I promise you will have a wedding ceremony tonight." When Jing and Rong heard this, they both said in their hearts: "It's Qiu Qianzhang." Mu Nianci continued: "Yang Kang, this kid actually smiled and thanked me repeatedly. I was so angry that I almost fainted. After a while, the old man left and came out. I quietly followed him, and after walking away, rushed I went up and punched him on the vest, and knocked him to the ground. If I hadn’t been in a dangerous place, I would have killed him with a knife. I knocked him out several times in succession, and when I searched him, the old guy’s arms collapsed. There are so many, such rings, broken swords, bricks, a whole set of weird things, they are all harmful things, and there is another booklet, I think there may be some tricks in it, so I took it and put it in my arms, the more I felt Thinking more and more annoyed, he decided to argue with Yang Kang.

"I went outside Yang Kang's room, but he was already standing at the door, and said with a smile: 'Sister, please come in.' I had made up my mind a long time ago, and I had to make everything clear tonight. When I got to his room, He pointed to the porcelain bottle on the table and said with a smile: "Sister, guess what is in this bottle?" I said angrily: "Who knows what dirty thing it is." He gave it to me, and said that as long as you put some of this medicinal powder in the tea, and trick you to drink it, everything will be as I wish.' This sentence was beyond my expectation, I immediately calmed down, picked up the porcelain bottle, Pushing open the window and throwing it out, he said, "Why do you keep it?" He said, "I respect my sister like a heavenly being, how could I do such a despicable thing?""

Guo Jing nodded and said, "Brother Yang did the right thing." Mu Nianci snorted and didn't answer.Huang Rong recalled that day when she was peeping through the window on Tiezhang Mountain, she saw Yang Kang sitting on the edge of the bed, murmuring with his arms around Mu Nianci. At that time, Mu Nianci was smiling and gentle. Guo Jing asked: "What happened next?" He was taught by Zhou Botong that whenever someone pauses in a story, he should ask "What happened next?" No answer.Huang Rong called out: "Ah, sister, I know, later you worshiped heaven and earth with him and became husband and wife."

When Mu Nianci turned around, his face had turned pale, he bit his lower lip tightly, and his eyes shone strangely.Huang Rong was taken aback, knowing that she had said something wrong, she hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, I'm talking nonsense, good sister, please don't take offense." Mu Nianci said in a low voice, "You didn't talk nonsense, I was the one who did it. I... I became husband and wife with him, but I didn't... I didn't pray to heaven and earth. I only hate that I can't control myself..." At this point, tears flowed down. Seeing her miserable expression, Huang Rong put her left arm around her shoulder and wanted to say something to comfort her. After a while, she pointed to Guo Jing and said, "Sister, you don't have to be sad, it's okay. That day in Niujia Village Brother Jing also wants to be a husband and wife with me." As soon as this remark came out, Guo Jing was tongue-tied and embarrassed, and said, "We...haven't...none..." Huang Rong said with a smile, "Then have you thought about it?" Guo Jing Even the ears were flushed with shame, she lowered her head and said, "It's my fault." Huang Rong stretched out her right hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said softly, "You want to be a husband and wife with me, I like it very much, what's wrong with you?" All right?"

Mu Nianci sighed and thought: "Although the Huang family is smart and clever, she is still young and doesn't know much about men and women. She is really lucky to have met this loyal and honest brother Guo." Huang Rong asked: "Sister, what happened next?" Mu Nianci looked at the stream and said in a low voice: "Later...later...I heard the sound of fighting and shouting outside the window, he told me to be silent, saying that it was Tiezhang who helped them with their own affairs, and told us Irrelevant. After a while, someone knocked on the door, saying that Qiu helped the Lord to see him. He hurriedly got up and told me to hide under the quilt and stay still. He lit the lamp, and a person came in. I looked out through the gauze curtain It turned out to be that bad old man just now. I think he is the leader of the Iron Palm Gang, and I feel very uneasy, afraid that he will ask me why I plotted against him. How... How could I see people? Fortunately, he did not Mention that matter, but discuss with Yang Kang how to destroy the beggar gang and how to welcome the Jin soldiers to go south."

Huang Rong laughed and said, "Sister, these two old men are not the same person." Mu Nianci wondered, "Not the same person?" Huang Rong said with a smile, "The two are twin brothers with exactly the same appearance. The one you knocked down is called Qiu Qianzhang, martial arts is very common, and he can brag and deceive others. Qiu Qianren, the leader of the Qiu Gang, is amazing. Fortunately, you are fighting a fake leader. If you meet the real leader, your life will be in danger with a wave of his iron palm. It's okay." Mu Nianci said dejectedly: "So that's how it is. If the one I met that day was the leader Qiu, if he had slapped him to death, he would be clean." Huang Rong smiled and said, "Our Brother Yang can't bear it. .”

Mu Nianci turned around, dropped her arm from his shoulder, and said embarrassingly, "Don't talk to me again." Huang Rong stuck out her tongue and said with a smile, "Okay, I just can't bear it." Mu Nianci stood up and said, "Brother Guo, sister of the Huang family, I'm leaving. Take care, both of you, and watch out for the ghost tricks on the boat." Huang Rong hurriedly stood up and took her hand, begging: "Good sister Sister, don't be angry, I won't dare to talk nonsense to you in the future." Mu Nianci sighed: "I'm not angry with you, it's... I'm sad." Huang Rong said: "What? Yang Kang annoyed you Already?" Pulling her to sit down again. Mu Nianci said: "That night, through the tent, I listened to Yang Kang and the old man surnamed Qiu discussing all kinds of treacherous plots to betray the country and harm the people. After talking for a long time, suddenly there was a loud voice shouting outside. The old man said: "Little prince, I'll go out and have a look, let's talk again." Then he walked out of the room." Huang Rong interjected: "Yes, he is here to chase Brother Jing and I." Mu Nianci said: "After the old man left, Yang Kang came to talk to me again. I asked him if what he said to the old man was true or false. He said: 'I have done it with you. We don’t need to hide anything from you. The army of the Dajin Kingdom will soon go south, and we have the help of the Iron Palm Gang. The inside and the outside cooperate, and the two lakes are at your fingertips.” He said happily, saying that after the Dajin destroyed the Song Dynasty, his father Prince Zhao will become a great treasure in the future, and he will be the emperor of the Jin Kingdom. He will be the crown prince. At that time, the wealth and glory will be limitless. "I listened without saying a word. He suddenly said: 'Sister, at that time you will be the empress.' I...I couldn't bear it any longer, so I slapped him hard and rushed out the door until I rushed down the mountain. At this time, the Tiezhang Peak was already upside down. Countless gangs took lanterns and torches and rushed to the highest mountain. I went down the mountain alone, but no one stopped me. "After all these changes, my heart was ashamed, and I just wanted to die. At that time, I didn't know east, west, north, south, just walking around. Later, when I saw a Taoist temple, I broke in. As soon as I stepped through the door, I fainted Fortunately, the old Taoist nun there took me in. I had a serious illness and was ill for more than ten days, and I got better in the past few days. I put on this Taoist attire and set off for Niujia Village in Lin’an. I didn’t want to meet here on you." Huang Rong said happily: "Sister, we are going back to Peach Blossom Island, and we happen to be on the same road. Let's go together, the three of us, the road will be more lively. If you don't mind, I will tell you a few sets of martial arts along the way." Mu Nianci shook his head. Shaking his head, he said: "No, I... I'll go alone. Thank you for your kindness." Standing up, he took out a booklet from his pocket, handed it to Guo Jing, and said, "Brother Guo, what's in this booklet The thing I remember is related to the Iron Palm Gang. When you see Qigong, please hand it to the old man, it may be useful." Guo Jing said: "Yes." He stretched out his hand to take it. Mu Nianci walked away quickly without looking back. Guo Jing and Huang Rong watched her disappear behind a row of big willow trees, and they were silent for a while.Guo Jing said: "She is alone, and she has traveled thousands of miles back to Zhejiang, just hoping that she will not be bullied by bad people on the road. Fortunately, her martial arts are not weak, and she is not afraid of ordinary bad people." Huang Rong said: "That's hard to say , Even if you and I are like you, you will inevitably be bullied by bad people." Guo Jing sighed, "Second Master often said: In troubled times, people are not as good as dogs, and that is something that can't be done." Huang Rong said: "Okay, let's kill that dumb dog." Guo Jing said: "What dumb dog?"Guo Jing laughed and said, "Let's still take this fake dumb boat?" Huang Rong said, "Of course we have to. That old thief Qiu Qianren beat me so badly, how can we just let it go? The old thief can't beat him, so go and kill him first." Disciples and grandchildren will talk about it." Immediately the two came back to the restaurant again, only to see the dumb Shao Gongyi looking around in front of the restaurant, seeing the two turned around, his face beamed with joy, and he hurried up to meet them.Jing and Rong just pretended not to know, and followed him to the pier to disembark.The boat was a small black canopy boat with a load of eighty or ninety stone meters.There are the most ships of this kind in the Yuanjiang River, and these wooden boats with black awnings are used to release mountain goods from Xiangxi to the lower levels and to transport rice from the lakeside.I saw two young men on board washing the deck with their shirts off. Jing and Rong got on the boat, and the Shaogong untied the boat's cables, propped the boat to the middle of the river, and set up the cloth sail.At this time, the south wind was strong, and the wind was smooth, and the boat sailed downstream like an arrow. Thinking about Yang Kang and Mu Nianci, Guo Jing couldn't help but sigh, and thought: "Yang Kang is my sworn brother, sworn brothers should share the blessings and difficulties together. Now he has gone astray, I can't ignore him, I have to do whatever I want It's about persuading him to correct his evil ways and return to his righteousness." Leaning on the deck in the cabin, he was in a daze. Huang Rong suddenly said, "Let me have a look at the brochure Sister Mu gave you. I don't know what it's written in." Guo Jing took it out of his pocket and gave it to her.Huang Rong flipped through the pages, and suddenly called out, "Ah, that's how it is. Come and see." Guo Jing moved his body, sat beside her, and looked at the booklet in her hand. At this time, it was already evening, and the red sunset glow reflected the heart of the river, and the water waves reflected the red glow on Huang Rong's face, clothes, and books, trembling slightly.
It turns out that this booklet was written by Shangguan Jiannan, the thirteenth leader of the Iron Palm Clan, and records the important events in the Clan every year.Shangguan Jiannan was originally a general under Han Shizhong.After Qin Hui came to power, Yue Fei was murdered, Han Shizhong was stripped of his military power, and he was dismissed from his post and lived idle.Most of the officers and soldiers under him were also disarmed and returned to the fields.Shangguan Jiannan resented the treacherous ministers in power, and led a group of brothers to scavenge in the Jingxiang area, and later joined the Iron Palm Gang.Soon after the old gang leader passed away, he took over as the gang leader.This Iron Palm Gang was originally just a small gang, after he rectified it vigorously, he did more chivalrous things, and the heroes and loyal people between the two lakes came back after hearing the news, but after several years, their momentum has grown, and they have been searching for themselves in the rivers and lakes. It can compete with the beggar gang in the north. Shangguan Jiannan has loyalty in his heart, although he lives in the wilderness, he never forgets to defend the country, kill the enemy and restore his homeland, he often sends his subordinates to inquire about news in Lin'an, Bianliang and other places, waiting for the opportunity.Many years later, a brother of the Iron Palm gang made friends with a jailer who guarded Yue Fei back then, and learned that Yue Fei's relics had entered the palace after his death. Among them was a suicide note on the art of war. After many inquiries, he learned that it was in the palace. .This news was quickly reported to Tiezhang Peak, Shangguan Jiannan helped the experts as much as possible on the same day, went eastward, went deep into the palace at night, stole the suicide note without any effort, and went to see the old master Han Shizhong with the book that night. At this time, Han Shizhong was old, and he lived in seclusion by the West Lake with his wife Liang Hongyu. Seeing Yue Fei's suicide note sent by Shangguan Jiannan, thinking of the hero's unjust death and unrewarded ambition, he couldn't help drawing his sword to kill the case and sighing.To commemorate his old friend, he once made a volume of poems, books, memorials, etc. written by Yue Fei, so he also donated this volume of banknotes to Shangguan Jiannan, urging him to inherit Yue Wumu's behest and lead each other. Heroes from the Central Plains drive away all the alien races and return my lands and mountains. When Han Shizong was discussing with Shangguan Jiannan, he suddenly thought: Yue Fei’s art of war encourages people to be loyal and serve the country everywhere. With his ambition in life, this book must be written for something, and it is definitely not written to be taken into the grave. Because of Qin Hui's strict precautions, it was impossible to pass it on.But thinking that Yue Fei is very clever, there must be countermeasures, but he doesn't know where the news he sent fell, if the person he wanted to teach got the news too late, and went to the palace to get it, wouldn't it be all in vain?After the discussion between the two, Shangguan Jiannan drew a picture of Tiezhang Mountain, hid another piece of paper in the interlayer, and wrote: "Wu Mu's suicide note, on Tiezhang Mountain, on the middle finger peak, on the second knuckle" ten six words.Han Shizhong was afraid that people who would come later would not understand, so he inscribed an old poem by Yue Fei on the painting, thinking that if the successor of this Art of War was not Yue Fei's descendants, he must be his old one. See details.Shangguan Jiannan re-entered the palace and left a picture, so that those who came later could go to the Iron Palm Gang to pick up the book based on this clue. Shangguan Jiannan returned to Tiezhang Mountain, and gathered all the heroes to discuss the Northern Expedition.Unexpectedly, the imperial court was only afraid of the Jinren, and instead of rewarding the Tiezhang gang of righteous men, they sent troops to encircle and suppress them.After all, the Iron Palm Gang was small and weak, and was finally broken from the stronghold.Shangguan Jiannan was seriously injured and died on Tiezhang Peak.
Guo Jing finished flipping through the brochure, and sighed, "Unexpectedly, this Shangguan leader is actually a good man. He was still holding the suicide note tightly when he was dying. I only know that he, like the Qiu brothers, colluded with the big gold , betraying the country and seeking glory, I despise him very much in my heart. If I knew this, I would pay respect to his remains. Back then, the Iron Palm gang were all loyal ministers and righteous men, but now they have become a gang Traitor. Lord Shangguan has a spirit underground, I don’t know how to get angry.” While talking, it was getting dark, Shao Gong sailed to the shore near a village, killing chickens for cooking.Huang Rong was afraid that he would mess with the food, so she pretended to think his food was dirty, took chicken and vegetables, and went ashore with Guo Jing to cook at the farmer's house in the village.That Shaogong was very angry, he pretended to be dumb, he couldn't persuade him with words, and he couldn't sarcastically express his anger, and when he saw Huang Rong making gestures with "witty words, eloquent teeth", he couldn't "argument" her no matter what, so he had to He gritted his teeth secretly, and only after Jing and Rong landed on the shore, he lowered his voice and cursed in the cabin. After dinner, the two of them enjoyed the shade in the shade of a tree in front of the farmhouse.Guo Jing said: "Then why didn't the officers and soldiers go up to the Tiezhang Peak after the leader of Shangguan escaped to the Iron Palm Peak?" Maybe the good hands in the gang will guard the dangerous place on the peak, and the officers and soldiers will not be able to attack, so they will go away with a gold medal." After a while, he said: "Unexpectedly, Senior Brother Qu Ling Feng Qu made such a great achievement unintentionally. "Guo Jing was stunned and puzzled. Huang Rong said: "This "Wu Mu's Last Letter" was originally hidden in the water curtain stone cave next to the Cuihan Hall in Da Nei. Since Shangguan Jiannan stole the book, the painting he drew was naturally placed in the original book collection. Is it right?" Guo Jing nodded and said, "That's right." Huang Rong said, "After my brother Qu was expelled from Peach Blossom Island, he fell in love with his school, knowing that my father loves calligraphy, painting and antiques, and also wanting rare treasures in the world. They are the most in the imperial palace, so they ventured into the palace and stole many famous painting scripts..." Guo Jing said: "Yes, yes. Your Master Qu stole this painting together with other calligraphy and paintings, and hid it in the secret room of Niujia Village. He wanted to give it to your father, but unfortunately he was beaten to death by the palace guards. When the traitor Wanyan Honglie arrived at the palace, not only was Wu Mu's suicide note gone, but even the picture that pointed the clues was gone. Alas, if we knew this earlier, we don't have to try our best to stop us in front of Shuilian Cave, I won't Injured by the old poison, you don't have to worry about the seven days and seven nights." Huang Rong said: "That's not the case. If you don't recuperate in the secret room of Niujia Village, how can you see this painting? How can you..." She thought of meeting Huazheng in Niujia Village, so she couldn't help feeling sad, and after a while, she said, "I don't know how Daddy is doing now?" Looking up at the crescent moon in the sky, she said softly, "The Mid-Autumn Festival in August is coming soon. After the martial arts competition at Yanyu Building in Jiaxing, you will go back to the Mongolian desert, right?" Guo Jing said: "No, I have to kill that traitor Wanyan Honglie first to avenge my father and Uncle Yang." Huang Rong stared at the moon and said, "What happens after killing him?" Guo Jing said: "There are still many things to do. After the master's wounds are healed, I will ask Brother Zhou to go to the Black Marsh to find Ying Gu. I will visit the six masters' homes, one by one, and I will find my father's grave." Huang Rong said, "All of this After finishing it, you have to go back to Mongolia, right?" Guo Jing couldn't say yes, and he couldn't say no, he really didn't know what to do.Huang Rong suddenly laughed and said, "I'm so stupid, what are you doing thinking about all this? When the two of us are together, every moment is as happy as we are, and every day we live like this is one day less. Let's go back to the boat and play tricks on that fake dumb Son." The two returned to the boat, but Shao Gong and the two young men had already fallen asleep at the back of the boat.Guo Jing said in Huang Rong's ear: "Go to sleep, I will pay attention to them." Huang Rong said in a low voice: "I will teach you a few swearing gestures for the dumb, and you can show him tomorrow." Guo Jing said: "What are you doing by yourself? Don't do it?" Huang Rong chuckled lightly and said, "That's foul language, girls can't say it." Guo Jing thought to himself: "It turns out that dumb people can also swear." He said, "You should rest for a while, and it won't be too late to scold him tomorrow. "Huang Rong hadn't recovered from her injury, she was really tired, she put her head on Guo Jing's lap, and slowly fell asleep. Guo Jing originally planned to meditate hard, but fearing that the public would become suspicious, he lay down on the deck and silently memorized the internal energy recorded in Sanskrit in the "Nine Yin Manual" taught by Master Yideng, and practiced according to the law. All the skeletons were full of energy, and they were enjoying themselves, when suddenly they heard Huang Rong say in a daze, "Brother Jing, don't marry that Mongolian princess, I will marry you myself." Guo Jing was stunned, not knowing how to answer, so he just Hearing her say again: "No, no, I was wrong. I don't ask you anything, I know you like me in your heart, that's enough." Guo Jing called twice in a low voice: "Rong'er, Rong'er." Huang Rong didn't agree, she sniffed slightly, and fell back into a deep sleep, it turned out that what she said just now was talking in sleep. Guo Jing loved and pitied Huang Rong, but saw the faint moonlight on Huang Rong's face. At this time, she had just recovered from her serious injury, her blood was not enough, and her face was as white as transparent under the moonlight.Guo Jing stared blankly, and after a long time, he saw her frown slightly, and a few tears flowed from her eyes.Guo Jing thought to himself: "In her dream, she must have thought about our lifelong affairs. Don't look at her, she seems to be carefree and joking all day long, but in fact she is not happy in her heart. Alas, I am so tired that she is so troubled , if she didn't meet me in Zhangjiakou that day, wouldn't it be good for her? But what about me? Am I willing to leave her behind?"
One was sad in his dream, the other was depressed with his eyes open, when suddenly he heard the sound of water, and a boat sailed down from the upper reaches.Guo Jing thought to himself: "The water in the Yuanjiang River is dangerous, what kind of ship is so bold that it sails in the dark?" Just as he was about to poke his head out and have a look, he suddenly heard someone on the back of the boat tap his palm lightly three times. Although the sound of applause was light, it spread far across the river in the still night.Then I heard the sound of furling the sails and pulling the oars, it turned out that the boat sailing down from Jiangxin was approaching the right bank, and after a while, it joined Guo Jing's boat. Guo Jing patted Huang Rong lightly to wake him up, he felt the boat sway slightly, he hurriedly raised the canopy to look out, and saw a black figure jumping from his own boat to and fro, he saw that his figure was exactly that of the dumb Shaogong.Guo Jing said: "I'll go over and have a look, you stay here." Huang Rong nodded.Guo Jing kept his body short and tiptoed to the bow of the ship. Seeing that the ship was still shaking, he jumped up and landed on the beam of the mast. The landing point was right in the middle of the ship. Everyone didn't realize it at all.He leaned close to the canopy and looked down through the gap, and saw three men in black standing in the cabin, they were all attires of the Iron Palm Gang, one of them was tall and his head was wrapped in green cloth, he seemed to be the leader. Guo Jing's movement was very fast, although the Shaogong who pretended to be dumb jumped onto the boat before him, but at this moment he just walked into the cabin and bowed to the big man, and called out: "Master Qiao Village." The village master Qiao asked "Are the two little thieves here?" Shao Gong said, "Yes." Qiao Zhaizhu asked again, "Why do they have any suspicions?" Then Shao Gong said, "No doubt. It's just that the two little thieves refused to be on the boat. You can't do anything about food and drink." Village Master Qiao snorted, and said, "Tell them to die on Qinglong Beach. At noon the next day, when your boat passes Qinglong Beach, you will break the rudder when you arrive at Qinglongji, three miles away from the beach. Let's meet there." The dumb man agreed.Qiao Zhaizhu said again: "These two little thieves are very skilled, so be careful. After the incident is completed, the gang leader will definitely reward you. Go back from the water, don't shake the boat, and disturb them." "Yes. What else does Village Master Qiao have to say?" Village Master Qiao waved his hands and said, "No more." The boatman saluted and withdrew, went into the water from the side of the boat, and swam back quietly. Guo Jing braced his feet on the mast, returned to the boat, and whispered what he had heard to Huang Rong.Huang Rong sneered and said, "Master Yideng's torrents are so rapid, we also went up there, why are we afraid of the rapids of Qinglong and Baihu? Go to sleep." Knowing the conspiracy of the thieves, the two of them were forgiving. The next day they enjoyed the scenery in the boat and rested at ease, and they didn't have to keep watch at night. On the morning of the third day, when the sailor was about to anchor and set sail, Huang Rong said, "Wait a minute, put the horses ashore first, and don't capsize the boat in Qinglongtan and die." The sailor changed color slightly, but pretended not to understand.Huang Rong raised her hands, and couldn't help but want to "speak" a few foul words to scold him. The dumb servants on Peach Blossom Island are all vicious and vicious. At that time, the two fingers of her left hand had just formed a circle, she finally felt indecent, chuckled a few times, put down her hand, and led the horse ashore with Guo Jing. Guo Jing suddenly said: "Rong'er, don't play with them. Let's just abandon the boat and ride a horse from here." Huang Rong said, "Why?" ? As long as our wives stay together peacefully, it's better than anything else." Huang Rong said: "Could it be true that we two can stay together peacefully for the rest of our lives?" Guo Jing was silent, seeing Huang Rong let go of the reins of the little red horse and pointing to the northward path.The little red horse is very intelligent, and has left its master several times, at this moment it knew that its master was about to leave again, so it didn't hesitate at all, it let go and ran northward, and disappeared in a short while. Huang Rong clapped her hands and said, "Get on the boat." Guo Jing said, "You haven't recovered yet, why do you have to take risks?" Huang Rong said, "It's fine if you don't come." Boat.Guo Jing had no choice but to follow on board.Huang Rong said with a smile: "Silly brother, we have more strange experiences together now. Wouldn't it be good to have more things to think about when we part in the future?" Huang Rong stared at him without answering.Guo Jing was at a loss. He agreed to Tuo Lei to marry Hua Zheng in a moment of enthusiasm in Niujia Village, and only then did he realize the cruelty of the pain. After driving for more than an hour, I saw that the mountains on both sides of the Yuanjiang River became more and more steep, and I guessed that Qinglong Beach was not far away.Jing and Rong stood at the bow of the boat and looked at them. They saw that the boats going up were all pulled by people. There were dozens of trackers on the big boats, and three or four people on the smallest boats.Each tracker bent down and moved up step by step, his forehead almost touching the ground. Under the rush of the rapids, the boat seemed to be nailed.All the trackers are wearing white cloths on their heads, shirtless on their upper bodies, their bronzed skin is covered with sweat beads, glistening under the scorching sun, shouting loudly in their mouths, and the voices of the river valleys that are several kilometers long are one after another, endlessly.The descending boats were speeding down the current, passing groups of trackers in an instant. Seeing this momentum, Guo Jing couldn't help being startled secretly, and said to Huang Rong in a low voice: "Rong'er, I only thought that the Yuanjiang River was dangerous, but we didn't take it seriously. Looking at the situation now, I'm afraid the rapids are extremely dangerous. Chief, if the boat capsizes, you are not in good health, I'm afraid something will happen." Huang Rong said, "How do you get there?" Guo Jing said, "Down with the dumb Shaogong, and bring the boat to shore." Huang Rong shook her head and said, "" That's not fun." Guo Jing asked anxiously, "Why is it time to play now?" Huang Rong pursed her lips and said with a smile, "I just love to play!" Guo Jing saw that the muddy river flowed between the steep peaks on both sides, and it was extremely fast. He was thinking secretly in his heart, but his mind was slow, so what could he come up with? The river turned a bend, and from a distance, there were dozens of families by the river, and the houses were built high and low against the mountains.The rapid current sent the boat, surpassing the galloping horse, and arrived at the house in a short time.There were dozens of strong men waiting on the shore along the river, Yashao Gong threw the two cables on the boat to the shore, and all the strong men caught them and put them on a big winch.More than a dozen people pulled the winch.Pull the boat to shore. At this time, another black-covered boat sailed downstream. More than 30 trackers came here out of breath, and some lay on the riverside, so exhausted that they could no longer move.Guo Jing thought to himself: "Look, the river below is much more urgent than here." He also saw that some of the trackers were old men with gray hair, and some of them were fourteen or five year old boys. The roots protrude, and suddenly I feel that everyone in the world is suffering, and I can't help but feel as if something is choking my throat. After the boat touched the shore, the sailor dropped the anchor, and Guo Jing saw that there were still more than 20 boats moored by the cliff.Huang Rong asked a man beside him, "Brother, what is this place?" The man said, "Qinglongji." Huang Rong nodded, paying attention to the dumb man's expression, he made a few gestures with a big man on the slope, suddenly took out an ax, slashed twice, cut the cable, and then stretched out his hand to lift the anchor.The boat was rushed by the turbulent river, suddenly turned sideways, turned in a circle, and rushed downstream as if flying.Everyone on the shore exclaimed loudly. After passing Qinglongji, the river bed dipped suddenly, and the river water splashed and poured down.Ya Shaogong steered the helm with both hands, and stared at the river intently.The two young men each held a long pole and stood on either side of him, as if to guard against any accidents in the torrent, and as if to protect Ya Shaogong, in case Jing and Rong would come to attack. Guo Jing saw that the current was getting faster and faster, the boat was rushing down wildly, every moment it could bump into rocks and shatter into pieces, he shouted loudly: "Rong'er, grab the rudder!"When the two young men heard the cry, they straightened their poles and stood guard on one side.Guo Jing didn't pay attention to these two people, and rushed towards the starboard side. Huang Rong shouted: "Wait!" Guo Jing stopped and turned around, and asked, "What?" Huang Rong said in a low voice, "You forgot about the eagle? When the boat capsizes, we will fly away on the eagle, and see what they will do. Guo Jing was overjoyed and thought: "Rong'er is safe in this torrent, so she thought of this move a long time ago." He beckoned to lead the two eagles to his side.Seeing that he was about to rush to snatch it, the dumb man suddenly stopped, not knowing that the two of them had a way to escape, and said that the two young children were so frightened by the rushing river that they were at a loss, lost their minds, and secretly rejoiced. Amidst the sound of the roaring water, suddenly there was a chorus of shouts from the trackers in the distance, and in an instant, a black-covered boat was seen coming head-on, with a black flag on the mast waving in the wind.When Ya Shaogong saw the boat, he picked up his sharp axe, cut off the tiller with a few clicks, stood on the port side, and jumped on board when the black-flagged boat passed by. Guo Jing pressed the female eagle's back and called, "Rong'er, you go first!" Huang Rong said, "Don't worry!" With a turn of her mind, she called, "Brother Jing, throw an anchor to destroy the incoming boat." Guo Jing According to the words, he grabbed the anchor.At this time, the boat lost the helm, and the boat rushed to and fro along the current.Seeing that the distance between the two boats was more than ten feet, the incoming boat turned its rudder to avoid it, the boatman on the river and the tracker on the mountain shouted in unison, Guo Jing threw all his strength, and the iron anchor flew out, hitting the slender pole of the bow of the incoming boat. The slender pole was pulled tightly by several hundred-zhang bamboo cables, and it was pulled into a bow shape. When the iron anchor hit it in such a way, it broke into two pieces with a loud click.Dozens of trackers were pulling with all their strength, the bamboo ropes suddenly loosened, and everyone fell to the ground.When the boat boarded, it was like a kite breaking its thread. It turned a few times sharply on the water surface, and then rushed downstream with its tail forward and backward.The crowd exclaimed even more loudly, and in an instant, the sound of people's voices and water echoed in the mountain gorge. Dumb Shao Gong was caught by surprise, his face turned pale with shock, and he shouted loudly: "Hey, save people, save people!" Huang Rong laughed and said, "The dumb man can talk, it's really a wonder in the world." Guo Jing threw an anchor, and there was still There was an anchor, and I saw that the boat and the incoming boat rushed down the current side by side, and the distance was very close. I took a breath, raised the anchor with both hands and waved it a few times, and turned my body three times in a row. Anchor cast forward stern rudder. Seeing that the tiller was about to be shattered by this blow, it was a foregone conclusion that both ships would be destroyed. Suddenly, a person jumped out from the front cabin, grabbed the long pole and stabbed it out. At this point, the penny bent into an arc, and with a slap, the body of the pole was folded in the middle, but the iron anchor was swept away by the long pole, and the water splashed, and both the anchor and half of the long pole fell into the river. Heart.The man holding the pole was wearing a yellow kudzu blouse, with a white beard curled up to his ears in the strong wind, standing still on the bumpy stern, majestic and majestic, it was Qiu Qianren, the leader of the Iron Palm Gang. When Jing and Rong saw him suddenly appearing on the boat, they couldn't help being startled. Just as they thought about it, they heard a loud bang, and the bow of the boat hit a rock head-on. The two were so shocked that they flew straight out, and their backs hit the hatch.The river came so fast that it reached the ankle in an instant, and it was already too late to ride on the eagle's back. At this critical moment and no time to think, Guo Jingfei jumped up and shouted: "Follow me!" With a move of "Flying Dragon in the Sky", he rushed straight towards Qiu Qianren.He knew that life and death were not at stake at this time, if he landed somewhere else on the enemy ship, Qiu Qianren would attack from the side without waiting for him to stand still, with his skill, he would definitely not be able to bear it, and now he is attacking head-on, forcing him to take the defensive position first, there will be gaps in the enemy's boat. The boat gained a foothold. Qiu Qianren knew what he was thinking, swung half of the penny, and stabbed several times in the air, making him uncertain about the direction of the stabbing, the false and the real, changing.郭靖暗叫:“不好。”伸臂格向篙头,身子续向敌船落去,但这么出臂一格,那一招“飞龙在天”的势头立时减弱。裘千仞一声长啸,竹篙脱手,并掌往郭靖当胸击去,已踏实地,敌在半空,掌力一交上了,非将他震入江中不可。 那竹篙尚在半空未落,突然横来一根竹棒在篙上一搭,借势跃来一人,正是黄蓉。她人未至,棒先到,凌虚下击,连施三下杀手。裘千仞料不到她来势竟是这般迅捷,左眼险被棒端戳中,只得还掌挡格。郭靖乘机站上船梢,出招夹击。裘千仞不敢怠慢,侧身避过竹棒,右腿横扫,将郭靖逼开一步,随即呼呼拍出两掌。 这铁掌功夫岂同寻常?铁掌帮开山建帮,数百年来扬威中原,靠的就是这套掌法,到了上官剑南与裘千仞手里,更多化出了不少精微招术,威猛虽不及降龙十八掌,可是掌法精奇巧妙,犹在降龙十八掌之上。两人顷刻之间已在后梢头拆了七八招,心中各存忌惮,掌未使足,已然收招,水声虽响,却也盖不了四张手掌上发出的呼呼风声。 这时铁掌帮中早有帮众抢上来掌住了舵,慢慢转过船来,头前尾后,向下游急驶。哑梢公所乘那船早已碎成两截,船板、布帆、哑梢公和两个后生都在一个大漩涡中团团打转。哑梢公大声惨呼,远远传送过来,果然是声音洪亮。黄蓉百忙中左手向身后挥出,做个手势,终于还是“骂”了他一句,反正无人瞧见,也就不算不雅。哑梢公等三人虽竭力挣扎,哪逃得出水流的牵引,转眼间卷入了漩涡中心,直没江底。 黑旗船顺水疾奔。黄蓉回头一望,漩涡已在两三里之外。双雕在空中盘旋飞翔,不住啼鸣。黄蓉挥动竹棒,把船上帮众逼向船头,返身正要相助郭靖双战裘千仞,眼角间瞥见船舱中刀光闪动,有人举刀猛向甚么东西砍了下去。 她也不及看清那人要砍的是甚么,左手一扬,一把金针飞出,都钉上他手腕手臂。那人的钢刀顺势落下,却砍在自己右腿之上,大声叫了起来。黄蓉抢入船舱,举脚将他踢开,只见舱板上横卧着一人,手足被缚,动弹不得。只见那人一对眼冷冷的望着自己,却是神算子瑛姑。 黄蓉万料不到竟会在此处救了她性命,当即拾起舱板上钢刀,割断她手上绳索。瑛姑双手脱缚,右手斗地伸出,施展小擒拿手从黄蓉手里夺过钢刀。黄蓉猝不及防,但见刀光闪动,瑛姑已一刀将那黑衣汉子杀死,这才弯腰割断她自己脚上绳索,说道:“你虽救了我,可别盼我将来报答。”黄蓉笑道:“谁要你报答了?你救过我,今日我也救你一次,正好扯直,以后咱们谁也不欠谁的情。” 黄蓉说着后半句时,已抢到船梢,伸竹棒上前相助郭靖。裘千仞腹背受敌,掌上加劲,倒也支持得住。但听得扑通、扑通、啊哟、啊唷之声连响,瑛姑持刀将船上帮众一一逼入了江中。在这激流之中,再好的水性也逃不了性命。 裘千仞与郭靖对掌,本已渐占上风,但黄蓉使打狗棒法上来夹攻,他以一敌二,十余招以后,不由得左支右绌,绕着船舷不住倒退,他背心向着江面,教黄蓉攻不到他后背。郭靖连使狠招,裘千仞双足犹似钉在船舷上一般,再也逼不动他半寸,这时只消退得一步,立时身堕江心。黄蓉心道:“你虽然外号'铁掌水上飘',但这'水上飘'三字也只是你自吹轻功了得,莫说在这江中的骇浪惊涛之上,就是湖平如镜,毕竟也不能在水面飘行。除非学了你老兄的法子,先在水底下打上几千几百根木桩。”又见他出掌沉稳,目光不住向江面上眺望,似在盼望再有船只驶来援手,心想:“你这家伙武功虽高,但今日是以三敌一之局,若再奈何不了你,咱们也算得脓包之至了。” 这时瑛姑已将船上帮众扫数驱入水中,只留下掌舵的一人,见靖、蓉二人一时不能得手,冷笑道:“小姑娘让开了,我来。”黄蓉听她言语中意存轻视,不禁有气,竹棒前伸,连攻两招,这是以进为退,待裘千仞侧身相避,便即跃后两步,拉了拉郭靖的衣襟,说道:“让她来打。”郭靖收掌护身,退了下来。 瑛姑冷笑道:“裘帮主,你在江湖上也算名气不小,却乘我在客店中睡着不防,用迷香害我。这般下三滥的勾当,亏你也做得出来。”裘千仞道:“你给我手下人擒住,还说甚么嘴?若是我自己出马,只凭这双肉掌,十个神算子也拿住了。”瑛姑冷冷的道:“我甚么地方得罪铁掌帮啦?”裘千仞道:“这两个小贼擅闯我铁掌峰圣地,你干么收留在黑沼之中?我好言求你放人,你竟敢谎言包庇,你当我裘千仞是好惹的么?”瑛姑道:“啊,原来是为了这两个小贼。你有本事尽管拿去,我才不理会这些闲事呢。”说着退后几步,抱膝坐在船舷,神情闲逸,竟是存定了隔山观虎斗之心,要靖、蓉二人和裘千仞拚个两败俱伤。她这么一来,倒教裘千仞、郭靖、黄蓉三人都大出意料之外。 原来瑛姑当时行刺一灯大师,被郭靖以身相代,又见一灯袒胸受刃,忽然天良发现,再也不忍下手,下得山来,爱儿惨死的情状却又在脑际萦绕不去。她在客店中心烦意乱,愤怨纠结,于神不守舍之际,竟被铁掌帮用迷药做翻,否则以她的精明机伶,岂能折在无名小辈之手?这时见了靖、蓉二人,满腔怨毒无处发泄,竟盼他们三人在这急流中同归于尽。 黄蓉心道:“好,我们先对付了裘千仞,再给你瞧些好的。”向郭靖使个脸色,两人一使竹棒,一发双掌,并肩向裘千仞攻去,顷刻间三人又打了个难解难分。瑛姑凝神观斗,见裘千仞掌力虽然凌厉,终是难胜二人,但见他不住移动脚步,似是要设法出奇制胜。 郭靖怕黄蓉重伤初愈,斗久累脱了力,说道:“蓉儿,你且歇一会,待一忽儿再来助我。”黄蓉笑道:“好!”提棒退下。 瑛姑见二人神情亲密,郭靖对黄蓉体贴万分,心想:“我一生之中,几时曾有人对我如此?”由羡生妒,因妒转恨,忽地站起身来,叫道:“以二敌一,算甚么本事?来来来,咱四人两对两的比个输赢。”双手在怀中一探,取出两根竹筹,不待黄蓉答话,双筹纵点横打,向她攻了过去。黄蓉骂道:“失心疯的婆娘,难怪老顽童不爱你。”瑛姑双眉倒竖,攻势更厉。她这一出手,船上形势立变。黄蓉打狗棒法虽然精妙,毕竟远不如她功力深厚,何况重伤之后,内力未复,身法颇减灵动,只得以“封”字诀勉力挡架。瑛姑滑溜如鱼,在这颠簸起伏、摇晃不定的船上,更能大展所长。 那边郭靖与裘千仞对掌,一时倒未分胜败。郭靖自得一灯大师指点武学精要,这些日子来功力又深了一层,勉力支撑,居然尚能自保。裘千仞见瑛姑先由敌人变为两不相助、忽又由两不相助变为出手助己,虽感莫名其妙,却不禁暗暗叫好,精神一振,掌力更为沉狠,料得定时候稍长,对手终究会抵挡不住,眼见郭靖挥掌猛击而来,当即侧身,避过正面锋锐,右掌高,左掌低,同时拍出。郭靖回掌兜截,四掌相接,各使内劲。两人同时“嘿”的一声呼喊,都退出了三步。裘千仞退向后梢,拿住了势子。郭靖左脚却在船索上一绊,险些跌倒,他怕敌人乘虚袭击,索性乘势翻倒,一滚而起,使掌护住门户。 裘千仞胜算在握,又见他跌得狼狈,不由得哈哈一声长笑,踏步再上。 瑛姑已把黄蓉逼得气喘吁吁,额头见汗,正感快意,突然间听到笑声,不由得心头大震,脸色剧变,左手竹筹发出了竟忘记撤回。黄蓉见此空隙,正是良机难逢,竹棒急转,点向她的前胸,棒端正要戳中她胸口“神藏穴”,蓦见瑛姑身子颤动,如中风邪,大叫一声:“原来是你!”势若疯虎般直扑裘千仞。 裘千仞见她双臂猛张,这一扑直已把性命置之度外,口中恶狠狠的露出一口白牙,似要牢牢将自己抱住,再咬下几口肉来,他虽武功高强,见了这般拚命的狠劲,也不由得吃惊,急忙旁跃避开,叫道:“你干甚么?” 瑛姑更不打话,一扑不中,随即双足一登,又向他扑去。裘千仞左掌掠出,往她肩头击落,满拟她定要伸手相格,岂知瑛姑不顾一切,对敌人来招丝毫不加理会,仍是向他猛扑。裘千仞大骇,心想只要给这疯妇抱住了,只怕急切间解脱不开,那时郭靖上来一掌,自己哪有性命?当下顾不得掌击敌人,先逃性命要紧,疾忙矮身窜向左侧。 黄蓉拉着郭靖的手,让在一边,见瑛姑突然发疯,不禁甚感惊惧,但见她狂纵狠扑,口中荷荷发声,张嘴露牙,拚着命要抱住裘千仞。 裘千仞武功虽高,但瑛姑豁出了性命不要,实是奈何她不得,只得东闪西避,眼见她脸上肌肉扭曲,神情狰狞,心中愈来愈怕,暗叫:“报应,报应!今日当真要命丧这疯妇之手。”瑛姑再扑几次,裘千仞已避到了舵柄之旁。瑛姑眼中如要喷血,一抓又是不中,手掌起处,蓬的一声把掌舵汉子打入江中,接着飞起一脚,又踢断了舵柄。 那船一失掌舵,在急流中立时乱转。黄蓉暗暗叫苦:“这女子迟不迟,早不早,偏在这时突然发起疯来,看来咱们四人都难逃命。”当下撮唇作啸,要召双雕下来救命。就在此时,那船突然打横,撞向岸边岩石,砰的一声巨响,船头破了一个大洞。 裘千仞见瑛姑踢断舵柄,已知她决意与己同归于尽,眼见离岸不远,心想不管是死是活,非冒险逃命不可,斗然提气向岸上纵去。这一跃虽然使了全力,终究上不了岸,扑通一声,跌入水里,立时沉至江底,他知道身子一冒上来,立时被急流冲走,再也挣扎不得,当即牢牢攀住水底岩石,手足并用,急向岸边爬去,仗着武功卓绝,岸边水势又远不如江心湍急,虽吃了十多口水,终于爬上了岸。他筋疲力尽,坐在石上喘气,但见那船在远处已成为一个黑点,想起瑛姑咬牙切齿的神情,兀自心有余悸。 瑛姑见裘千仞离船逃脱,大叫:“恶贼,逃到哪里去?”奔向船舷,跟着要跃下水去。这时那船又已给急流冲回江心,在这险恶的波涛之中,下去哪有性命?郭靖心下不忍,奔上抓住她后心。瑛姑大怒,回手挥去,郭靖急忙低头避过。 黄蓉见双雕已停在舱面,叫道:“靖哥哥,理这疯妇作甚?咱们快走。” 江水汹涌,转瞬间便要浸到脚面,郭靖松开了手,只见瑛姑双手掩面,放声大哭,不住惨呼:“儿啊!儿啊!”黄蓉连声催促。郭靖想起一灯大师的嘱咐,命他照顾瑛姑,叫道:“你快乘雕上岸,再放回来接我们。”黄蓉急道:“那来不及啊。”郭靖道:“你快走!咱们不能负了一灯大师的托付。” 黄蓉想起一灯的救命之恩,登感踌躇,正自徬徨无计,突然身子一震,轰的一声猛响,船身又撞中了江心一块大礁,江水直涌进舱,船身顷刻间沉下数尺。黄蓉叫道:“跳上礁去!”郭靖点点头,跃过去扶住瑛姑。 这时瑛姑如醉如痴,见郭靖伸手来扶,毫不抗拒,双眼发直,望着江心。郭靖右手托住她的腋下,叫道:“跳!”三人一齐跃上了礁石。那礁石在水面下约有尺许,江水在三人身周奔腾而过,溅得衣衫尽湿,待得三人站定,那艘乌篷船已沉在礁石之旁。黄蓉虽然自幼与波涛为伍,但见滚滚浊流掠身泻注,也不禁头晕目眩,抬头向天,不敢平视江水。 郭靖作哨呼雕,要双雕下来背人。不料双雕怕水,盘旋来去,始终不敢停到浸在水面下的礁石上来。黄蓉四下一望,见左岸挺立着一棵大柳树,距礁石不过十来丈远,当下心生一计,道:“靖哥哥,你拉住我手。”郭靖依言握住她左手,只听咕咚一响,黄蓉溜入了江中。郭靖大惊,见她向水下沉船潜去,忙伏低身子,自己的上身也浸入了水中,尽量伸长手臂,双足牢牢钩住礁石上一块凸出的尖角,右手用劲握住她左腕,唯恐江水冲击之力太强,一个脱手,那她可永远不能上来了。 黄蓉潜向沉船桅杆,扯下帆索,回身上礁,双手交互将船上的帆索收了上来。待收到二十余丈,她取出匕首割断绳索,然后伸出臂去,招呼雌雕停在她肩头。这时双雕身量已长得颇为沉重,郭靖怕她禁受不起,伸臂接过。 黄蓉将绳索一端缚在雌雕足上,向大柳树一指,打手势叫它飞去。雌雕托着绳索在柳树上空打了几个盘旋,重又飞回。黄蓉急道:“唉,我是叫你在树上绕一转再回来。”可是那雕不懂言语,只急得她不住叹气。直试到第八次上,那雕才碰巧绕了柳树一转回来。靖、蓉二人大喜,将绳索的两端用力拉紧,牢牢缚在礁石凸出的尖角上。 郭靖道:“蓉儿,你先上岸罢。”黄蓉道:“不,我陪你,让她先去。”瑛姑向两人瞪了一眼,也不说话,双手拉着绳子,交互换手,上了岸去。 黄蓉笑道:“小的侍候一套玩意儿,郭大爷,你多赏赐罢!”一跃上绳,施展轻身功夫,就像卖艺的姑娘空中走绳一般,挥舞竹棒,横过波涛汹涌的江面,到了柳树枝上。 郭靖没练过这功夫,只怕失足,不敢依样葫芦,也如瑛姑那般双手攀绳,身子悬在绳下,吊向岸边,眼见离岸尚有数丈,忽听黄蓉叫道:“咦,你到哪里去?”听她语气之中颇有惊讶之意,郭靖怕瑛姑神智未清,出了甚么乱子,急忙双手加快,不等攀到柳树,已一跃而下。黄蓉指着南方,叫道:“她走啦。”郭靖凝目而望,只见瑛姑在乱石山中全力奔跑,说道:“她心神已乱,一个人乱走只怕不妥,咱们追。”黄蓉道:“好罢!”提足要跑,突然双腿酸软,随即坐倒,摇了摇头。 郭靖知她伤后疲累过度,不能再使力奔跑,说道:“你坐着歇歇,我去追她回来。”当下向瑛姑奔跑的方向发足急赶,转过一个山坳,前面共有三条小路,瑛姑却已人影不见,不知她从何而去。此处乱石嵯峨,长草及胸,四野无人,眼见夕阳下山,天渐昏暗,又怕黄蓉有失,只得废然而返。
两人在乱石中忍饥过了一宵,次晨醒来,沿着江边小路而下,要寻到小红马再上大路。走了半日,找到一家小饭店打尖,买了三只鸡,一只自吃,两只喂了双雕。 双雕停在高树之上,把两头公鸡啄得毛羽纷飞,酣畅吞食,蓦地里那雌雕纵身长鸣,抛下半只没吃完的公鸡,振翅向北飞去。那雄雕飞高一望,鸣声啾急,随后急赶。郭靖道:“两头雕儿的叫声似乎甚是忿怒,不知见到了甚么?”黄蓉道:“瞧瞧去。” 两人跑上大路,只见双雕在远处盘翔两周,突然同时猛扑而下,一扑即起,打了几个圈子,又再扑下。郭靖道:“遇上了敌人。”两人加快脚步赶去,追出两三里,只见前面房屋栉比鳞次,是个市镇,双雕却在空中交叉来去,似是失了敌踪。 二人赶到镇外,招手命双雕下来,双雕却不理会,只是四下盘旋找寻。郭靖道:“这雕儿不知跟谁有这么大的仇。”过了好一阵,双雕才先后下来。只见雄雕左足上鲜血淋漓,一条刀痕着实不浅,若非筋骨坚硬,那只脚已给砍下来了,再看雌雕,却见它右爪牢牢抓着一块黑黝黝之物,取出看时,原来是块人的头皮,带着一大丛头发,想来是被它硬生生从头上抓下来的,头皮的一边鲜血斑斑。 黄蓉替雄雕在伤足上敷了金创药。郭靖将头皮翻来翻去的细看,沉吟道:“这对雕儿自小十分驯良,若不是有人相犯,决不会轻易伤人,怎会突然跟人争斗?”黄蓉道:“其中必有蹊跷,只要找到这失了一块头皮之人就明白了。”两人在镇上客店中宿了,分头出去打听。但那市镇甚大,人烟稠密,两人访到天黑,丝毫不见端倪。郭靖道:“我到处找寻没了一片头皮之人,始终找不到。”黄蓉微笑道:“那人没了头皮,想必要戴上顶帽儿遮住。”郭靖大叫一声:“咦!”恍然大悟,想起适才在镇上所见,戴帽之人着实不少,却也无法再去一一揭下他们的帽子来察看。 次晨双雕飞出去将小红马引到。两人记挂洪七公的伤势,又想中秋将届,烟雨楼头有比武之约,双雕与人结仇,也非大事,当即启程东行。 两人同骑共驰,小红马奔行迅速,双雕飞空相随。一路上黄蓉笑语盈盈,嬉戏欢畅,尤胜往时,虽至午夜,仍是不肯安睡。郭靖见她疲累,常劝她早些休息,黄蓉只是不理,有时深夜之中,也抱膝坐在榻上,寻些无关紧要的话头,和他有一搭没一搭的胡扯。 这日从江南西路到了两浙南路境内,纵马大奔了一日,已近东海之滨。两人在客店中歇了,黄蓉向店家借了一只菜篮,要到镇上买菜做饭。 郭靖劝道:“你累了一天,将就吃些店里的饭菜算啦。”黄蓉道:“我是做给你吃,难道你不爱吃我做的菜么?”郭靖道:“那自然爱吃,只是我要你多歇歇,待将养好了,慢慢再做给我吃也不迟。”黄蓉道:“待我将养好了,慢慢再做……”臂上挽了菜篮,一只脚跨在门槛之外,竟自怔住了。 郭靖尚未明白她的心思,轻轻从她臂上除下菜篮,道:“是啊,待咱们找到师父,一起吃你做的好菜。” 黄蓉呆立了半晌,回来和衣倒在床上,不久似乎是睡着了。 店家开饭出来。郭靖叫她吃饭。黄蓉一跃而起,笑道:“靖哥哥,咱们不吃这个,你跟我来。”郭靖依言随她出店,走到镇上。 黄蓉拣一家白墙黑门的大户人家,绕到后墙,跃入院中。郭靖不明所以,跟着进去。黄蓉径向前厅闯去,只见厅上灯烛辉煌,主人正在请客。 黄蓉大喜,叫道:“妙极!这可找对了人家。”笑嘻嘻的走向前去,喝道:“通通给我滚开。”厅上筵开三席,宾主三十余人一齐吃了一惊,见她是个美貌少女,个个相顾愕然。黄蓉顺手揪住一个肥胖客人,脚下一勾,摔了他一个筋斗,笑道:“还不让开?”众客一轰而起,乱成一团。主人大叫:“来人哪,来人哪!” 嘈杂声中,两名教头率领十多名庄客,抡刀使棒,打将入来。黄蓉笑吟吟地抢上,不两招已将两名教头打倒,夺过一把钢刀,舞成一团白光,假意向前冲杀。众庄客发一声喊,跌跌撞撞,争先恐后地都逃了出去。 主人见势头不对,待要溜走,黄蓉纵上去一把扯住他胡子,右手抡刀作势便砍。那主人慌了手脚,双膝跪倒,颤声道:“女……女大王……好……姑娘……你要金银,立时……马上取出献上,只求你饶我一条老命……”黄蓉笑道:
