Chapter 6 Chapter 6: The Lady in Purple

Hu Fei went back under the big tree, led the horse, and rode northward, paying attention to the traces of Feng Tiannan and Wuhumen along the way, but there was no sign of it.On this day, after passing Wuling Mountains, we have entered the border of Hunan Province. We can only see red soil along the road, which is quite different from the scenery of Lingnan. Hu Fei galloped his horse. After passing the Majiapu, he was about to reach the ferry of Qifeng. He suddenly heard a swift and unusual sound of horseshoes behind him. Ma Rang is by the road.As soon as he stood still, there was a whistling sound in his ears, the white horse had already sprinted past him, and his hooves seemed to miss the ground.A woman in purple was riding on the horse, because the horse was running so fast, I couldn't see the woman's face clearly, but I saw her slender back, sitting firmly on the horse's back.

Hu Fei was taken aback: "This white horse seems to be Zhao Sange's mount, why did it come to the Central Plains?" He had already run far away, under the shadow of the weeping willows, he vaguely saw the woman in purple looking back, the white horse kept walking, and in a short while, it ran away without a trace. Hu Fei was so surprised that he urged the horse to go, but the white horse traveled so fast, even if his mount was twice as fast, even if he kept galloping day and night, he would definitely not be able to catch up with her. Arrived in Hengyang on the third day.That Hengyang is an important town in southern Hunan, not far from Nanyue Hengshan.Along the way, the ancient pines line the road and the white clouds surround the mountains, which makes people feel refreshed.

As soon as Hu Fei entered the south gate of Hengyang, he suddenly saw a white horse tied to the corridor of a restaurant. It was long, tall, and looked like a horse.Hu Fei made friends with Zhao Banshan when he was young, and he looked at his white horse very carefully. Now when he saw it, it looked like an old thing, and couldn't help being overjoyed. He hurried to the restaurant, looking for the woman in purple, but there was no one there. Hu Fei wanted to ask the shop assistant later, so he thought about it.It is very inconvenient to openly inquire about the whereabouts of an unknown woman, so I sat at the door and ordered wine and food.

The food is served with less alcohol, and Hunan people eat with extremely long chopsticks and huge bowls. There is no dish that is not spicy, and every flavor is strong. It is quite heroic and matches Hu Fei's temperament.He drank slowly, thinking about how Shaowai would speak to the purple-clothed woman, and suddenly remembered: "Since this person rides on Third Brother Zhao's white horse, he must have a deep connection with him. Why don't you take the red flower gifted by Third Brother Zhao?" Put it on the table? She will come and talk to me." Holding the wine glass in his right hand, he reached for the bundle with his left hand instead, but found nothing, and when he looked back, the bundle had disappeared.

The burden was obviously placed on the table behind him, why did it disappear in a blink of an eye?Look at everyone in the restaurant.There was no strange person, and he secretly wondered in his heart: "If an ordinary thief takes the sheep by hand, I must not know it. Since this person can take it away silently, if he secretly plots behind his back, I will also be murdered. It seems that today is in Hunan. I met an expert." Then he asked the shop clerk, "My bag was on the table, why did it disappear? Did you see someone take it away?" The store clerk heard that the customer was missing something, so he immediately got busy and said, "Please take care of your money and belongings yourself. Unless you hand it over to the cabinet, the store will not be responsible." Hu Fei laughed and said, "Who wants you to pay for it?" I just want to ask if you saw someone take it." The shop assistant said: "No, no. How can there be thieves in our shop? The guest officer must not talk nonsense." Hu Fei knew that he couldn't get along with him, and wanted to connect I didn't notice it myself, how could the shop guy see it?Just as he was muttering to himself, the shopkeeper said: "The wine and food used by the guest officer is a total of one and a half cents of silver. Please pay me."

Among the baggage, there were hundreds of taels of silver taken from Fengtiannan Casino, but he was penniless, so he couldn't help but feel embarrassed when he saw the shop assistant urging the debt.The clerk sneered and said, "If the guest officer is inconvenient, there is no need to say that he has lost his burden." Hu Fei didn't bother to argue with him, so he went down the porch and took his own mount, but seeing that the white horse had disappeared, he couldn't help being startled: "This white horse must be related to the person who stole my baggage." Immediately, he became more alert, so he gave the mount to the shopkeeper and said: "This animal is worth eight or nine taels of silver, let's put it on the cabinet. When I get the silver, it will come with the animal's fodder money." Redemption." The shop assistant immediately changed his face, and said with a smile: "No rush, please go, guest officer."

Hu Fei was about to follow the trail of the white horse, when the shopkeeper caught up and said with a smile: "Guest officer, you don't have money to eat today, so I will show you a way to ensure you have food and shelter." Wanting to repel him, he changed his mind: "What way? Are you pointing me to find the burden?" So he nodded. The shop clerk laughed and said: "This kind of thing may not happen in a hundred years. It's a lucky guest officer. Old boxer Wan of Maple Leaf Village passed away just seven days ago, and today is the first seven days of funeral. "Hu Fei said: "What does that have to do with me?" To the north, less than three miles away, there is a large courtyard surrounded by hundreds of maple trees, which is Maple Leaf Village. The guest officer took this pair of incense candles to pay homage to the funeral, and kowtowed a few times in front of the spirit of old boxer Wan. You can't control it. Tomorrow, if you say that you are short of money, the villager will give you a tael of silver for travel expenses if you don't say anything."

Hu Fei heard that the deceased was called "Wan Lao Boxer", thinking that he was from the same line of martial arts, he was a little willing, and asked, "Why is Maple Leaf Village so hospitable?" The shopkeeper said: "Within a few hundred miles in Hunan, who I don’t know that old boxer Wan is generous and righteous? But he loved to make friends with heroes in his lifetime, like a guest officer who doesn’t know martial arts, so he just took advantage of his death to fight the autumn wind.” Hu Fei first got angry and then smiled, clasping his fists and laughing: “More advice.” Asked: "Then the heroes and friends of old boxer Wan are coming to mourn today?" The shop assistant said: "Who says it's not? It would be good for the guest officer to open his eyes." , took the plain candle and incense sticks, and headed north.

Within three miles, as the shopkeeper said, hundreds of maple trees surrounded a large courtyard, with white and blue lanterns hanging outside the village, and sackcloth nailed to the gate. As soon as Hu Fei entered the door, the drummer played the welcome music.But I saw a big mourning hall, and the two sides were covered with plain curtains and elegiac couplets.He walked up to the coffin, knelt down and kowtowed, thinking: "No matter who you are, you are always a martial arts senior, and you can afford to suffer from my head." When he kowtowed, three dutiful sons dressed in linen and white knelt on the ground and kowtowed in return.Hu Fei stood up, and the three filial sons bowed to him to thank him.Hu Fei also bowed, and saw that two of the three were stout, and the other was short and thin, with different appearances. He thought to himself: "The three sons of Old Boxer Wan must not have been born to the same mother, and most of them were born to three wives and concubines. It's time." Turning around, I saw that the hall was crowded with hangers-on, less than half of them seemed to be local gentry from the countryside, and most of them were martial arts masters.Hu Fei looked one by one, but there was no acquaintance. Feng Tiannan and his son were not included, and the purple-clothed woman was also missing. He thought: "If I pay attention to the gathering of heroes here, I may hear some news about the father and son of the Feng family of Wuhumen." .”

In Shaoqing, vegetarian seats were opened, and there were a total of seventy tables in the hall and the east and west halls.Hu Fei sat in a side seat, paying attention to the movements of the hangers-on.But seeing that the old ones are full of sadness, while the young ones are talking high-spirited, talking and laughing freely, thinking that it is not enough to have any friendship with Master Wan, and they are not sad because of his death. Looking at it, I saw three filial sons respectfully accompanied the two military officers, and gave way to the chief to sit in the two first seats facing outward.The two military officers were dressed in the color of imperial bodyguards.Hu Fei was startled, and recognized that these two people were He Sihao and his companion.There are also three elderly martial artists sitting on the chief seat, all of whom are seniors in the martial arts world.The three filial sons sat at the bottom to accompany them.

After all the guests were seated, the short and filial son stood up and raised his glass to thank the guests for mourning.After he thanked, the second filial son also thanked, and then the third thanked again, with exactly the same words and actions, all the guests stood up and returned the salute again and again, and couldn't help feeling quite bored. Hu Fei was feeling weird, and heard a young man at the same table whisper: "It is enough for the three dutiful sons to thank him once. If Master Wan has ten sons, wouldn't he have to thank him ten times in a row?" A middle-aged martial artist sneered and said, "Wan Hesheng would be fine if he had one son, how about ten?" The young man wondered, "Aren't these three dutiful sons his sons?" Brother and old boxer Wan are not relatives, but they came to pay tribute to the funeral, this kind of old-fashioned kindness is really rare." The young man blushed, lowered his head and stopped talking.Hu Fei secretly laughed: "This gentleman is like me, and he also came here for free in the autumn wind." The middle-aged martial artist said: "It's okay to tell you, in case someone asks, you can't connect the tenon at all, and you can't get off your face. Old Wan is a well-known boxer, but it's a pity that he has no children. He took three There are two apprentices, the short one named Sun Fuhu, the old boxer's first disciple. The white-faced man named Yu Chilian is his second disciple. The red-faced man named Yang Bin is his third disciple. The three of them are veteran boxers, and their martial arts are not bad, but they are ignorant of etiquette, so the senior brother thanked him, the second senior brother also thanked him, and the third senior brother was afraid of being impolite, so he also came to thank him once." Blushing, nodding his head. In fact, the three senior brothers each thanked each other once, but the real reason was not that the rude people did not understand etiquette. Although Hu Fei sat not very close to the chief, he listened carefully, hoping that the two guards would mention Wuhumen during the conversation and reveal some clues about the whereabouts of Feng Tiannan and his son.He Sihao said in a loud voice: "Brother, under the order of Marshal Fu, come to invite the powerful Wan Lao boxer from southern Hunan to Beijing to participate in the World Masters Conference, so that the martial arts of Shaolin Wei Tuomen can be shown before the world's martial arts. Unexpectedly It's really a pity that old boxer Wan can't afford it." Everyone sighed in agreement.He Sihao said again: "Although Master Wan passed away, Shaolin Wei Tuo Sect is a well-known sect in the martial arts, and the head of the sect must not be there. I wonder who will succeed the head of your sect?" Sun Fuhu and the three brothers and sisters looked at each other and remained silent.After a while, Yang Bin, the third junior brother, said: "Master suffered from a stroke. Once it happened, he didn't know about his personnel and affairs, so he didn't leave any last words." Another guard said: "Yes, yes. The elders of the noble family, I must have some idea." Second disciple Yuchi said: "Our uncles and uncles are scattered all over the place, and we have never heard from each other." The guard said: "In this way, it will take a lot of time to establish the head of the sect. It’s been a lot of twists and turns. The meeting of masters headed by Marshal Fu is scheduled for the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, and there are still two months left, so the noble family must make plans as soon as possible.” The three brothers all agreed. An old martial artist said: "If you don't establish a virtuous person, you will become a leader. Since the old boxer Wan has no last words, the head of the sect must be his eldest disciple, Senior Brother Sun." Sun Fuhu smiled, and his expression was very smug.Another old martial artist said: "Li Chang's words are good. But although Senior Brother Sun entered the school earlier, in terms of age, he is one year older than Senior Brother Yuchi. Senior Brother Yuchi is old and capable. Palm, it will surely be carried forward, and the soul of the old boxer Wan is in the sky, and he must be extremely pleased." Yuchi even stretched out his sleeve and wiped his eyes, seeming to miss his master and feel sad in his heart.The third old martial artist waved his hands again and again, and said: "Otherwise, otherwise, on a normal day, the old man would have nothing to say. But in this Beijing conference, all sects and sects showed their magical powers. If the head of the Wei Tuo sect can't be on the spot , wouldn’t it ruin the reputation of the Wei Tuo Sect for hundreds of years? Therefore, in the opinion of old people, the head of the Wei Tuo Sect must be the best martial artist in the Wei Tuo Sect to be able to take on the role.” These words made everyone click First, Qi claimed to be. The old martial artist said again: "The three brothers are all the proud disciples of Master Wan. They are all good at martial arts. Everyone in the martial arts admires them very much. But when it comes to being out of the ordinary and outstanding, they are still coming from behind. I have to push my younger brother Yang Bin." The first old martial artist snorted and said: "That's not necessarily true. The way of martial arts, one more year of practice, the more advanced one year of kung fu. , that is far inferior to Senior Brother Sun. Kung fu in swords, spears, fists, and feet cannot be forced at all." The second old martial artist said: "When it comes to winning in front of the battle, fighting wits is the most important thing, and fighting strength is second. Although brothers are outsiders , but in all fairness, he is resourceful, so he should postpone Senior Brother Yuchi." The three of them said one sentence to you, and one sentence to me. At first, their words were polite, but then they gradually blushed, and their voices became louder and louder.Guests at dozens of tables stopped drinking and listened to the three of him arguing.Hu Fei thought to himself: "It turns out that the three old martial artists were entrusted by others to be lobbyists, and maybe they also received the benefits of the three disciples." Among the hangers, there are more than a hundred people who are disciples of Wei Tuomen, most of them are the reincarnation disciples of Master Wan, each of them supports their master, at first they sneered and argued in low voices, and then they couldn't help arguing loudly.The relatives, friends and guests either dissuaded each other, expressed their opinions, defended friendship, or criticized each other, and the hall suddenly became chaotic.A few people with bad tempers and mutual ill-intentions actually slapped the table and began to scold each other.Old boxer Wan's bones are not yet cold, and his apprentices are about to fight each other for the head of the boxing. The guard sitting at the head of the seat listened to everyone's quarrel and didn't speak. He looked at the spirit seat of old boxer Wan and just smiled. Listen to my brother." Everyone respected him as an official and stopped talking. The guard said: "The teacher said rightly just now, the head of the Wei Tuo sect must be the leader in martial arts in his sect, everyone agrees with this section?" Everyone agreed.The guard said: "Who is superior in martial arts and who is inferior, you can't argue with your mouth. When you compare swords, guns, fists and kicks, you can immediately judge the strength. Fortunately, the three brothers are from the same school, no matter the victory or defeat, they will not lose their temper. Not to mention the prestige of the Wei Tuomen. Let's invite the spirit of the old boxer Wan to preside over this competition, and let him choose the master in the spirit of the sky, which is a good story in the martial arts world." After hearing this, everyone cheered together, and said one after another: "This is the most fair." "Let everyone see Wei Tuomen's superb skills." , know better than others." Seeing that everyone agreed with him, the guard looked very proud, and said: "It's extremely common for brothers in the same sect to compete in martial arts, but brothers have to ask three of you to agree to one thing in public." Among the three brothers, the most shrewd and capable, said immediately: "But according to the command of the adults, our brothers and sisters must obey." The guard said: "Since the division is based on martial arts, then the one with the highest martial arts will be the head. There should be no more dissenting words, no more disputes." The three said in unison: "Naturally." The three of them each have their own strengths in martial arts, as the saying goes: "Wen Wu is the first, Wu Wu is the second." Everyone thought to themselves that although There is no certainty of victory, but if you fight hard, you will not be able to subdue the two fellow disciples before the beginning. The guard said: "Since that's the case, let's all move out to let everyone admire the exquisite kung fu of Wei Tuomen." They hurriedly moved the tables and chairs, and made an open space for the boss in front of the spiritual seat.Seeing the good show, everyone has no intention of eating and drinking, only a few gluttons keep their heads down and chew. The guard said: "Which two will go first? Is it Senior Brother Sun and Senior Brother Yuchi?" Sun Fuhu said, "Okay, brother show your shame." His disciple had already presented him with a single sword.Sun Fuhu took the knife in his hand, walked up to the master's spirit and kowtowed three times, then turned around and said, "Junior Brother Yuchi, please come." Yuchilian thought to himself that if he fights with the senior brother first, and then he has to deal with the third junior brother after winning, it is better to let the two of them fight to the exhaustion first, and then go to Bianzhuang to stab the tiger by himself, and pick up a ready-made one, so he cupped his hands and said: "Brother's martial arts are not as good as senior brother's." , not as good as my junior brother, I didn’t dare to fight for the sect leader. It’s just that the teachers have their fate, so I have to reluctantly accompany my senior brother and junior brother to feed and recruit, so it’s better for junior brother Yang to go first.” Yang Bin had a bad temper and said loudly: "Okay, I'll go first." He took the single sword from his disciple and strode forward.He also didn't know that he should kowtow to the master's spiritual seat first, and then set up a door, holding the knife in his right hand across his left shoulder, hooking his left hand, sitting on his right leg, and protruding his left foot. Shaolin Wei Tuo's boxing, saber, and spear are three unique skills, and they all abide by the laws of Liuhe.The so-called Liuhe, "Essence, Qi and Spirit" is the inner three-in-one, "hand-eye-body" is the outer three-in-one, and its function is "eyes and heart, heart and qi, qi and body, body and hands, hands and feet, Feet and hips together." The whole body is integrated inside and out.Many of the guests were experts in martial arts. Seeing Yang Bin standing upright with his saber horizontally, he was composed and thought: "This man's martial arts are not weak." Performed a move of "rolling hand stabbing", and said: "Master, please!" The middle-aged martial artist at the table with Hu Fei showed off his expertise, and said to the young man next to him: "Single swords look at hands, and double swords look at walking. If the single sword has a sword in the right hand, the sword has sword skills, and the left hand has nothing, then settle down." Difficult. Therefore, when looking at a person's kung fu with a knife, you only need to see whether his left palm is strong, and you can tell whether it is strong or not. You see, Senior Brother Sun's palm is turned out, and there is an attack in the defense. How powerful is it?" Hu Fei heard what he said well. , nodded slightly. While speaking, the two senior brothers had joined hands, and the swords collided with each other, making clinking sounds from time to time.The middle-aged martial artist said again: "These two swordsmen use the six-character formula of 'extending, wiping, hooking, chopping, chopping, chopping', and the method is very good." The young man said: "What is drilling?" Hook belly?" The middle-aged martial artist said with a sneer, "Among the saber techniques, is there any way to drill his mother and hook your belly? The edge of the blade is called Zhan, and it is wiped inward. Chopping, chopping with both hands up is called chopping, and chopping with flat hands is called chopping." Then the young man blushed and didn't dare to ask any more questions. Although Hu Fei's swordsmanship is exquisite, but in his ancestral swordsmanship, these detailed distinctions are not mentioned at all, and he only pays attention to the subtle changes in protecting the body and injuring the enemy. It turns out that there are many specialties in the saber technique. But look at the saber moves of the two brothers, there is nothing special about them." Seeing that the two are fighting more and more intensely, Sun Fuhu is agile and nimble, but Yang Bin is better than Shen Xiong with his wrist strength, it is difficult to distinguish between them for a while.During the battle, a person suddenly walked in outside the gate, and said sharply: "The sword technique of Wei Tuomen, how can there be such a pustule, don't be in this world soon!" . Hu Fei had already seen that the person who came was a young girl.But she was wearing purple clothes, with a slender figure, she was the woman riding a white horse that she met on the way.She was carrying a burden on her back, but what was it that she lost in the hotel?Seeing her melon-shaped face, slender eyebrows, although her complexion is slightly dark, she can't hide her beautiful figure and radiant countenance, she can't help being surprised: "This woman is about the same age as me. Could it be that she has extremely high martial arts? How did you remove the burden so lightly and skillfully that I didn't even notice it?" Sun Yang and Sun Yang were already furious when they heard the outrageous words, but they stopped their swords and saw that she was a graceful and graceful girl, they were stunned and couldn't speak. The girl said: "The essence of Liuhe swordsmanship lies in the four characters of 'virtuality, reality, ingenuity, and strike'. You are so stupid to hack and slash, why do you mention Wei Tuomen? What Liuhe sword? Unexpectedly, the old master Wan is so famous. You actually taught this class of disciples to come out." Her voice was crisp and clear, and everyone felt it was very pleasant. It was a man who said these words, Sun Yang and the two had already spoken and started, but seeing this girl's slender waist and shoulders, she seemed very weak, how can she be a person who knows martial arts?But when she heard that the four characters "virtual, solid, ingenious, and striking" of the Liuhe sword technique were correct, I didn't know how to answer them for a while. Yu Chilian stepped forward, cupped his fists and said, "Please tell me your name." The girl snorted, but did not answer.Yuchi continued: "Today, our sect chooses the head in front of the ancestor's spirit. Please sit up and watch the ceremony." As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand and invited her to sit down. The girl raised her eyebrows slightly, and said: "Shaolin Wei Tuo Sect is a well-known sect in the martial arts, but to choose the head from these people, wouldn't it fall into the prestige of ancestors below Master Wuxiang?" The seniors in Jianghu were slightly startled.It turns out that Master Wuxiang is an eminent monk of Shaolin Temple, who studied the Wei Tuo pestle and Liuhe boxing method intensively back then, and was the founder of the Wei Tuo School. Unexpectedly, this weak girl also knows this martial arts story. Yuchi clasped his fists together and said: "Which senior did the girl come here on the order of? What advice do you have for our family?" He kept speaking politely, but Sun Fuhu and Yang Bin were already impatient, only hearing the girl's shocking words, they just Not happening yet. The girl said: "I come here when I want to, why do I have to be ordered by others? I have a relationship with Wei Tuomen, seeing that there is too much trouble here, I have to say a few words." At this moment, Yang Bin couldn't bear it anymore, and said loudly: "What is your relationship with Wei Tuomen? No one knows who you are. We have important matters, so stand aside quickly, and don't get in the way here!" He turned his head to Sun Fuhu and said, "Eldest brother, we two brothers have not won or lost, let's do it again." Stepped out with a left step, with a single sword flat on his waist, he was about to make a move. The girl said: "This move is 'cut across the body'. The empty steps are too firm, and the steadfast steps are not stable. They don't look at the other party, but squint at me. Wrong, wrong." Sun Fuhu, Yu Chilian and Yang Bin were all startled, thinking: "These words are right to the point, just like what Master taught Zhao that day, could it be that she really knows Liuhe Saber?" He Sihao listened to the girl's conversation with Yu Chilian, and kept silent all the time. At this moment, he interjected and said, "What's your business here, girl? Who is the honored master?" The girl didn't answer his question, but asked instead: " Today Shaolin Wei Tuo Sect chooses the head of the sect, right?" He Sihao said: "Yes!" The girl said again: "As long as it is a member of our sect, whoever has the strongest martial arts will be in charge of the sect, and no one else can disagree. , is it right or not?" He Sihao said: "Exactly!" The girl said: "Very good! Today I am the head of the Wei Tuo Sect." Seeing her serious face and serious words, everyone couldn't help looking at each other in astonishment.Seeing that the girl was beautiful, He Sihao felt a sense of pity and pity, and said with a smile: "If the girl has also practiced martial arts, I will invite you to perform a fist and kick later, so that everyone can open their eyes. Now let the three of them How about seniors and brothers?" The girl snorted and said: "They don't need to compare anymore, just compare with me one by one." She pointed to a disciple of Wei Tuomen, and said: "Lend me the knife." Although she is young and delicate , but there is a kind of majesty in the expression of speaking, which is hard to resist.The disciple hesitated for a while, and handed the knife over, but he didn't turn the handle upside down, but pointed the tip of the knife towards the girl. The girl stretched out two fingers, held the back of the knife lightly, lifted it lightly, and raised her little finger slightly, like the orchid hand in boudoir embroidery. Holding the single knife with two fingers hanging in the air, she said coldly: "Are you two attacking together?" Although Yang Bin is reckless, he has always looked down on women, thinking that good men don't fight women, how can I fight with women if I am a majestic man?What's more, this girl is crazy and a bit evil, so it's better to ignore her, so she raised her knife and backed away, saying: "Brother, you can send her!" Sun Fuhu also hesitated, saying: "No, no... " Before he could finish his sentence, the girl shouted: "Swallows skimming the water!" The two fingers of her right hand loosened, and the single knife fell down. With a sinking palm, she had already grasped the handle of the knife. Stand up, hook your left hand, and sit back slightly.This knife is the authentic Liuhe knife technique of Wei Tuomen. Sun Fuhu didn't expect her to move so quickly, but he has been immersed in this saber technique for more than 20 years, and he has practiced it so well that he can't be more familiar with it. He immediately returned the move "Golden Lock Falling to the Ground".The girl said: "Guan Ping presents the seal." She turned the blade and jerked upwards.It stands to reason that even if she used the "swallows to sweep the water" single-handedly from bottom to top, then the next second move should never be to use "Guan Ping presents the seal", it should still be from bottom to top.Unexpectedly, she slanted the saber slightly, raised the saber over the top, and suddenly made a strange move with a steep edge.Sun Fuhu was startled, and hurriedly lowered his head.The girl shouted again: "Phoenix's whirling nest!" Her left hand swung out and struck Sun Fuhu's wrist, slashing sharply from top to bottom with a single sword. With a bang, Sun Fuhu fell to the ground with his single sword, but the girl's single sword was already around his neck.The onlookers said "ah" and exclaimed in unison. Seeing her slashing sharply, Sun Fuhu was about to fall to the ground.Unexpectedly, the saber was swung down very violently, but it was stopped suddenly, the blade just touched his head and neck, without even scratching the skin of his neck.This skill is really unbelievable. Hu Fei only saw his heart thumping wildly, thinking that it would not be difficult to defeat Sun Fuhu within three moves, but he was so accurate with the strength of the last knife, I'm afraid he might not be able to match it.Among the people in the hall, he was the only one who knew that the girl's kung fu was amazing, but after these three moves, everyone couldn't stop talking. Sun Fuhu's head sank, trying to avoid the edge of the blade, but the girl's single-handed sword followed the trend.Sun Fuhu had already bent down and lowered his head, but now his forehead was about to touch the ground, as if kowtowing to the girl.He has martial arts all over his body, with a sharp blade and a neck, he can't move even half a point. The girl looked around at everyone, put away her single knife, and said, "Have you practiced the move of 'Phoenix Rotating Nest'?" Sun Fuhu stood up straight, lowered his head and said, "I have practiced it." I don’t know how many tens of thousands of times I’ve used it, but I’ve never used it in this way.” Surprised, my heart was in a mess, and I raised the knife and retreated. Seeing the girl's three tricks, Yang Bin subdued the senior brother, and suddenly became suspicious: "Could it be that the senior brother planned a trick to seize the master, and purposely colluded with this woman to pretend to be a ghost?" The more he thought about it, the more he was right. He asked loudly, "Brother, what do you mean you gave in with just three tricks? Did I disregard the prestige of Wei Tuomen?" There was no answer for a moment, but he stammered: "I...I..." Yang Bin said angrily, "What am I?" After only saying two words, a white light flashed in front of her eyes, the girl's single saber flew over from bottom to top, her saber technique was too fast, she couldn't see clearly, it seemed to be a move of "swallows plundering water".Yang Bin was in a hurry, and he returned the move of "Golden Lock Falling to the Ground", which was a trick he had practiced in the master's school.The girl didn't wait for the two blades to intersect, and single-handedly made another move, which became "Guan Ping Xianyin", and followed the oblique knife.Yang Bin was startled, and shouted: "Phoenix's whirling nest." Before he finished speaking, he felt a numbness in his wrist, and the single knife in his hand fell to the ground, and the opponent's steel knife was already on his neck. The girl's three moves were exactly the same as the sword technique used to deal with Sun Fuhu just now, but the moves were faster, making people caught off guard, and this cut was less than three feet from the ground, and Yang Bin's forehead almost touched the ground. The girl said coldly: "Are you convinced?" Yang Bin was full of anger, and said loudly: "I don't agree." The girl slightly exerted force on her hand, and pressed the blade down slightly.Unexpectedly, Yang Binji is his strong point, he thought: "Even if you cut off my head, I won't touch the ground on my forehead." Instead, he straightened his head and neck. The girl had no intention of hurting his life, so she slightly raised the sword, and said: "How can you be willing to accept it?" Yang Bin thought that her sword technique was a bit unorthodox, but real martial arts definitely can't beat me, so he said loudly: "You have the guts, Just compete with me." The girl said: "Okay!" Putting away the single sword, threw it at the disciple who borrowed it, and said, "Let me see how your Liuhe marksmanship is doing?" Yang Bin jumped up, his face was red, and under the rage, he was swollen like purple sauce, and shouted: "Get the gun quickly, get the gun quickly!" A disciple went to the martial arts hall to get it. Here comes a gun.Yang Bin was furious, and with a backhanded earcup, he scolded: "This woman wants to compete with me in marksmanship, didn't you hear?"Another disciple was afraid that he would stretch out his hand to hit someone again, so he hurriedly said, "Go and get another gun." He rushed into the inner hall and took another gun. The girl took the spear and said: "Take the move!" She raised the spear and sent it forward, using the move "Siyi Binfu".This move is the most subtle move in the Liuhe Spear, known as the first of the twenty-four moves, among which there are endless subtle changes, it is the Zhongping Spear Technique. Hu Fei studied single-handed fists and kicks intensively, and was not familiar with other weapons. He glanced at the middle-aged martial artist with the intention of asking for advice.This martial artist is mediocre in martial arts, but he has been with Master Wan for many years, and he has seen and heard a lot of Liuhemen's weapons and fists, so he recited the formula: "A middle-level spear is the king of the spear, it doesn't matter whether it is high or low; it goes like an arrow. , come like a line..." He hadn't finished reciting the formula yet, but he saw Yang Bin return a move.The girl pressed the tip of her gun down.The martial artist said: "This move of 'beauty recognizes the needle' is still mediocre, I'm afraid her marksmanship is not as good as that of Senior Brother Yang..." Suddenly, the girl pressed both hands, and the point of the spear was down, she had already pressed the tip of Yang Bin's spear , is exactly the "civet cat and mouse" in Liuhe marksmanship.This trick is called "Guns out of nothing", and it is an extremely powerful trick from the imaginary formula. In just three moves, Yang Bin was restrained again.With his arms pierced, he roared like thunder, and violently raised his gun and collapsed.The girl flicked the gun, and with a click, the tip of Yang Bin's gun was broken.The girl turned up the tip of her gun, pointed at his lower abdomen, and said softly: "What?" Everyone looked at Yang Bin at the same time, but saw that his liver-like face suddenly lost all color and was as pale as paper. His body trembled, and with a slap, he threw the barrel of the gun to the ground and shouted: "That's it, that's it!" Turn around and rush out.One of his disciples shouted: "Master, Master!" and ran after him.Yang Bin kicked his disciple a somersault, and ran out of the gate without looking back. Everyone in the hall was surprised.The saber and spear techniques this girl uses are indeed Wei Tuomen's authentic martial arts.Sun Fuhu and Yang Bin are both well-known experts in the Wei Tuo Sect, but no matter whether they are swords or guns, they only use three moves, so they have no room for her to parry. Yu Chilian put away his contempt for the girl early, made up his mind, stepped forward with fists cupped, and said: "The girl's martial arts are exquisite, so I'm no match for you, but..." The girl frowned slightly, and said: "You talk a lot, and I'm impatient to listen. If you're convinced, you'll embrace me as the sect master. If you're not convinced, just do it quickly." Yuchilian blushed slightly, and said in his heart: "This woman It’s hot on the hand, and it’s hot on the mouth.” So he said: “My brothers and sisters have already surrendered, and I will not succeed if I don’t show my shame..." The girl stopped the conversation and said: "Okay, what do you love more?" Yuchi even said: "Wei Tuomen has always been known as the three masters of boxing, swords and guns..." The girl was also very straightforward, threw the big gun and said: " Well, then you are going to compete with your fists and feet, come on!" Yuchi said: "There is no need to compete with our authentic Liuhe boxing. Naturally, I am far from the girl, and I want to ask you about a set of red buttocks..." The girl's face turned pale Even more hesitant, he said: "Hmph, if you master Chijiri Lianquan, it will work!" With his right palm, he cut down on the lute bone of his shoulder. It turns out that this "Chijiri Lianquan" is also one of Wei Tuomen's boxing techniques. It is based on Liuhequan and shaped like monkey boxing. It is a set of small capture techniques for close combat. , That is, tapping acupuncture points.Yuchilian saw that she was powerful with swords and spears, and thought that this set of Chijiri fist was very proficient, thinking that no matter how strong her martial arts are, the little girl's physical strength will always be inferior to mine, let alone close combat, girls have many scruples, so I will do it myself Can take the opportunity to win. The girl knew what he was thinking, so she slashed with her palm at the same time.Yuchilian swung his left hand out, trying to block her right palm, and then he went back to point at Jianjing acupoint.The girl's wrist didn't touch his, she turned her palm, her finger turned to the left, and pointed at the acupoint on his left chest.Yuchilian was overjoyed, he turned his right palm back to the grid, and brought his left hand towards her waist.The girl's right leg suddenly circled her left leg from behind, kicked him straight out with a slam, and fell on the stone slabs of the patio, with blood streaming down her cheeks. The move that the girl used was Chijiri fist , but he was not allowed to get close.Among the three senior brothers, it was Yu Chilian who was bleeding. He Sihao was very happy to see that girl's martial arts was so strong, he poured a full glass of wine, and respectfully sent it over, saying: "Young lady is on the spot, even if Master Wan is revived, she may not have such martial arts. The young lady will be the master today. It is really gratifying and congratulatory to see the great prosperity of Wei Tuomen." The girl took the wine glass and was about to put it to her mouth, when a person in the corner of the hall said strangely: "Is this girl from Wei Tuomen? I can't see it." The girl turned her head and heard the voice Looking around, I saw everyone sitting far away, and I didn't know who was talking, so I sneered: "Whoever is not convinced, please come out and talk." After a while, there was silence in the corner of the hall.He Sihao said: "We have already explained what we said earlier, the head of the sect is determined by martial arts. This girl is using the authentic kung fu of the Wei Tuo sect. Everyone has seen it with their own eyes, so there is no ambiguity. Among them, whoever is confident that he can beat this girl can come up and compete. The brother is ordered by the commander-in-chief to invite heroes from all over the world to Beijing. No favoritism." He said with a few dry laughs. 他见无人接口，向那女郎道：“众人既无异言，这掌门一席，自是姑娘的了。武林之中，各门各派的掌门人兄弟也见过不少，可是从无一位如此年轻，如此美……咳咳，如此年轻之人，当真是英雄出在年少，有志不在年高。咱们说了半天话，还没请教姑娘尊姓大名呢。” 那女郎微一迟疑，想要说话，却又停口，何思豪道：“韦陀门的弟子，今天到了十之八九，待会便要拜见掌门，姑娘的大名，他们可不能不知啊。”那女郎点头道：“说的是。我姓袁……名叫……名叫紫衣。”何思豪武功平平，却是见多识广，瞧她说话的神情，心想这未必是真名，她身穿紫衫，随口便诌了“紫衣”两字，但也不便说破，笑道：“袁姑娘便请上坐，我这首席要让给你才是呢。” 按照礼数，何思豪既是京中职位不小的武官，又是韦陀门的客人，袁紫衣便算接任掌门，也得在末座主位相陪。但她毫不谦逊，见何思豪让座，当即大模大样地在首席位上坐下了。 忽听厅角中那怪声怪气的声音哭了起来，一面哭，一面说道：“韦陀门昔年威震当世，今日怎地如此衰败？竟让一个乳臭未干的女娃娃上门欺侮啊！哦哦，哇哇哇！”他哭得真情流露，倒并不是有意调侃。 袁紫衣大声道：“你说我乳臭未干，出来见过高低便了。”这一次她瞧清楚了发话之人，是个六十来岁的老者，身形枯瘦，留着一撇鼠尾须，头戴瓜皮小帽，脑后拖着一根稀稀松松的小辫子，头发已白了九成。他伏在桌上，号啕大哭，叫道：“万鹤声啊万鹤声，人家说你便是死而复生，也敌不过这位如此年轻、如此貌美的姑娘，当真是佳人出在年少，貌美不可年高啊。” 他最后这几句话，显是讥刺何思豪的了。厅中几个年轻人忍不住笑出声来。只听这老者又哭道：“武林之中，各门各派的英雄好汉兄弟也见过不少，可是从无一位如此不要脸的官老爷啊！”这两句话一说，厅上群情耸动，人人知他是出言正面向何思豪挑战了。 何思豪如何忍得，大声喝道：“有种的便滚出来，鬼鬼祟祟地缩在屋角里做乌龟么？”那老者仍是放声而哭，说道：“兄弟奉阎罗王之命，邀请官老爷们到阴世大会，邀到的人官儿做得越大，兄弟越有面子啊。”何思豪霍地站起，向厅角急奔过去，左掌虚晃，右手便往老者头颈里抓去。那老者哭声不停，众人站起来看时，突然一道黑影从厅角里直飞出来，砰的一声，摔在当地，正是何思豪。众人都没瞧明白他是如何摔的。另一名侍卫见同伴失利，拔出腰刀抢上前去，厅上登时一阵大乱，但见黑影一幌，风声响处，这侍卫又是砰的一声摔在席前。 胡斐一直在留神那老者，见他摔跌这两名侍卫手法干净利落，使的便是尉迟连与袁紫衣适才过招的“赤尻连拳”，看来这老者也是韦陀门的，只是他武功高出尉迟连何止倍蓰，定是他们本门的名手。他对清廷侍卫素无好感，见这二人摔得狼狈，隔了好一阵方才爬起，心中暗自高兴。 袁紫衣见到了劲敌，离席而起，说道：“你有何见教，爽爽快快地说吧，我可见不得人装神弄鬼。”那老者从厅角里缓缓出来，脸上仍是一把眼泪一把鼻涕。袁紫衣见他面容枯黄，颧骨高起，双颊深陷，倒似是个陈年的痨病鬼，但双目炯炯有神，当下不敢怠慢，凝神以待。 那老者不再讥刺，正色说道：“姑娘，你不是我门中人。韦陀门跟你无冤无仇，你何苦来拆这个档子？”袁紫衣道：“难道你便是韦陀门的？你姓什么？叫什么名字？”那老者道：“我姓刘，名叫刘鹤真。'韦陀双鹤'的名头你听见过么？我若不是韦陀门的弟子，怎能与万鹤声合称'韦陀双鹤'？” “韦陀双鹤”这四个字，厅上年岁较大之人倒都听见过的，但大半只认得万鹤声，都知他为人任侠好义。江湖上声名甚好，另一只“鹤”是谁，就不大了然。这时听这个糟老头儿自称是“双鹤”之一，又亲眼见他一举手便将两个侍卫打得动弹不得，一时群相注目，窃窃私议。只是谁都不知他的底细，也说不出一个所以然来。 袁紫衣摇头道：“什么双鹤双鸭，没听见过。你要想做掌门，是不是？”刘鹤真道：“不是，不是，千万不可冤枉。我是师兄，万鹤声是师弟。我要做掌门，当年便做了，何必等到今日？”袁紫衣小嘴一扁，道：“哼，胡说八道，谁信你的话？那你要干什么？”刘鹤真道：“第一、韦陀门的掌门，该由本门真正的弟子来当。第二、不论谁当掌门，不许趋炎附势，到京里结交权贵。我们是学武的粗人，乡巴佬儿，怎配跟官老爷们交朋友哪？”他一双三角眼向众人横扫了一眼，说道：“第三、以武功定掌门，这话先就不通。不论学文学武，都是人品第一。若是一个卑鄙小人武功最强，大伙儿也推他做掌门么？” 此言一出，人群中便有许多人暗暗点头，觉得他虽然行止古怪，形貌委琐，说的话倒颇有道理。 袁紫衣冷笑道：“你这第一、第二、第三，我一件也不依，那便怎样？”刘鹤真道：“那又能怎样了？只好让我几根枯瘦精干的老骨头，来挨姑娘的粉拳罢啦！” 胡斐见二人说僵了便要动手，他自长成以来，游侠江湖，数见清廷官吏欺压百姓，横暴贪虐，心中素来恨恶，这时见刘鹤真公然折辱清廷侍卫，言语之中颇有正气，暗暗盼他得胜。只是那紫衣少女出手敏捷，实是个极厉害的好手，生怕刘鹤真未必敌得她过。 袁紫衣神色傲慢，竟是全不将刘鹤真放在眼内，冷然说道：“你要比拳脚呢，还是比刀枪？”刘鹤真道：“姑娘既然自称是少林韦陀门的弟子，咱们就比韦陀门的镇门之宝。”袁紫衣道：“什么镇门之宝？说话爽爽快快，我最讨厌是兜着圈子磨耗。”刘鹤真仰天打个哈哈，道：“连本门的镇门之宝也不知道，怎能担当掌门？” 袁紫衣脸上微露窘态，但这只是一瞬间之事，立即平静如恒，道：“本门武功博大精深，练到最高境界，即令是最平常的一招一式，也能横行天下，六合刀也好，六合枪也好，哪一件不是本门之宝？” 刘鹤真不禁暗自佩服，她明明不知本门的镇门之宝是什么武功，然而这番话冠冕堂皇，令人难以辩驳，想来本门弟子人人听得心服，于是左手摸了摸上唇焦黄的胡髭，说道：“好吧，我教你一个乖。本门的镇门之宝，乃是天罡梅花桩。你总练过吧？” 袁紫衣冷笑道：“嘿嘿，这也算是什么宝贝了？我教你一个乖。武功之中，越是大路平实的，越是贵重有用。什么梅花桩，尖刀阵，这些花巧把式，都是吓唬人，骗孩子的玩意儿。不过不跟你试试，谅你心中不服。你的梅花桩摆在哪儿？” 刘鹤真拿起桌上一只酒碗，伸脖子喝干，随手往地下一摔。众人都是一怔，均想这一下定是呛啷一响，打得粉碎，哪知他这一摔，劲力用得恰到好处，酒碗在地下轻轻一滑，下掉的力道登时消了，平平稳稳的合在厅堂的方砖之上，竟是丝毫无损。他一摔之后，随即又拿起第二只酒碗往地下摔去，双手接连不断，倘是空碗，便顺手抛出，碗中若是有酒，不论是满碗还是半碗，都是一口喝干。 片刻之间，地下已布满了酒碗，共是三十六只碗散置覆合。众人见他摔碗的手法固然巧劲惊人，而酒量也是大得异乎寻常，这一番连喝连掷，少说也喝了十二三碗烈酒。但见他酒越喝得多，脸色越黄，身子一晃，轻飘飘纵出，右足虚提，左足踏在一只酒碗的碗底，双手一拱，说道：“领教。” 袁紫衣实不知这天罡梅花桩是如何练法，但仗着轻功造诣甚高，心下并不畏惧，左足一点，也跃上了一只酒碗的碗底。她径自站在上首，双手微抬，却不发招，要瞧对方如何出手，这才随机应变，只是见了他摔掷酒碗这番巧劲，知他与孙伏虎等不可同日而语，已无半分轻敌之意。 刘鹤真右足踏上一步，右拳劈面向袁紫衣打到，正是六合拳“三环套月”中的第一式。袁紫衣见对方拳到，自食指以至小指，四指握得参差不齐，生出三片棱角，知道这三角拳法用以击打人身穴道，此人自是打穴好手，当下左足斜退一步，还了一招六合拳中的“栽锤”，右手握的也是三角拳。 刘鹤真见她身法、步法、拳法、外形，无一不是本门正宗功夫，但适才折服孙伏虎等三人，所使变化心法，绝非本门所传，只不过其中差异，若非本门的一流高手却也瞧不出来，心中又是惊异，又是恼怒，当下踏上左步，击出一招“反躬自省”。这一拳以手背击人，在六合拳中称为“苦恼拳”，因拳法极难，练习之际苦恼异常，故有此名。 这苦恼拳练至具有极大威力，非十余年以上功力不办，袁紫衣无此修为，于是避难趋易，还了一招“摔手穿掌”，右手出的是摔碑手，左手出的是柳叶掌，那也是六合拳中的正宗功夫。 两人在三十六只酒碗碗底之上盘旋来去，使的都是六合拳法。在这天罡梅花桩上动手过招，要旨是抢得中桩，将敌手逼至外缘，如是则一有机会，出手稍重，敌手无路可退，只有跌落桩下。刘鹤真自幼便对这路武功深有心得，在这桩上已苦练数十年，左右进退，每一步踏下去实无分毫之差，数招之间，便已抢得中桩，于是拳力逐步加重。他知这少女年纪虽轻，武功实得高人传授，却也不敢贸然进犯，心想只要守住中桩，便已稳操胜算。 袁紫衣与孙伏虎、尉迟连等动手，虽说是三招取胜，其实在第一招中已是制敌机先，但此时在梅花桩上与刘鹤真比拳，每一掌每一拳击将出去，均遇到极重极厚的力道反击。她足底踏的是酒碗，只要着力稍重，酒碗立破，这场比武便算是输了，因此上一沾即走，从无一招敢稍稍用老，眼见敌人守得极稳，难以撼动，只得以上乘轻功点踏酒碗，围着对手身周游动，只盼找到敌方破绽。两人拆到三十余招，一套六合拳法的招数均已使完，但见刘鹤真瘦瘦的身形屹立如山，拳风渐响，显见劲力正自加强。 各门武功之中，均有桩上比武之法，只是桩子却变异百端，或竖立木桩，或植以青竹，或叠积砖石，甚至是以利刃插地，但这般在地下覆碗以代梅花桩，厅上众武师却从未见过。刘鹤真这三十六只酒碗似乎散放乱置，并非整整齐齐地列成梅花之形，但其中自有规范，他早已习练纯熟，即使闭目而斗，也是一步不会踏错。袁紫衣却是每一步都须先向地下一望，瞧定酒碗方位，这才出足。如此时候一长，拳脚上竟是渐落下风。 刘鹤真心中暗喜，拳法渐变，右手三角拳着着打向对方身上各处大穴，左手苦恼拳却以厚重之力，拦封横闩，使的全是截手法，袁紫衣眼见不敌，左手突然间自掌变指，倏地向前刺出，竟是六合枪法中的“四夷宾服”。刘鹤真吃了一惊，不及思索，急忙侧身避过，岂知袁紫衣右手横斩，出招是六合刀法中的一招“钩挂进步连环刀”。刘鹤真想不到她拳法竟会一变而成刀法，微一慌乱，肩头已被斩中。他肩头急沉，于瞬息之间将斩力卸去了八成，跟着还击一拳。袁紫衣左手“白猿献挑”自下而上削出，那是双手都使刀法，所用的不但是单刀，且是双刀了。 这一下掌刀斩至，刘鹤真再难避过，砰的一响，胁下中掌，身子一晃，跌下碗来。 胡斐在旁瞧得明白，心想这位武学高手如此败于对方怪招之下，大是可惜，随手抓起席上两只空酒碗，学着刘鹤真的手法，向地下斜摔过去。两只酒碗轻轻一滑，正好停在刘鹤真的脚下。 刘鹤真这一跌下梅花桩来，只道已然败定，猛觉得脚底多了两只酒碗，一怔之下，已知有高人自旁暗助。众人目光都集于相斗的两人，胡斐轻掷酒碗，竟没一人留意。 袁紫衣以指化枪，以手变刀，出的虽然仍是六合枪、六合刀的功夫，但是韦陀门之中，从无如此怪异的招数。刘鹤真惊疑不定，抱拳说道：“姑娘武功神妙，在下从所未见，敢问姑娘是哪一门哪一派高人所授？”袁紫衣道：“哼，你定然不认我是本门弟子。也罢，倘若我只用六合拳胜你，那便怎地？” 刘鹤真正要她说这句话，恭恭敬敬地答道：“姑娘如真用本门武功折服在下，那是光大本门的天大喜事。小老儿便是跟姑娘提马鞭儿，也所甘愿。”他适才领教了袁紫衣的武功，狂傲之气登敛，跟着转头向胡斐那方位拱手说道：“小老儿献丑。”这一拱手是相谢胡斐掷碗之德，他虽不知援手的是谁，但知这两只酒碗是从该处掷来。 袁紫衣当刘鹤真追问她门派之时，已想好了胜他之法，见刘鹤真抱拳归一，踏步又抢中桩，当即出一招“滚手虎坐”，使的果然是六合拳正路武功。 数招一过，刘鹤真又渐抢上风。此时他出拳抬腿之际，比先前更加了一分小心谨慎，生怕她在拳招之中又起花样，再拆数招，见对方拳法无变，心中略感宽慰，眼见她使的是一招“打虎式”，当即右足向前虚点，出一招“乌龙探海”，突觉右脚下有些异样，眼光向下一瞥，不由得一惊。只见本来合覆着的酒碗，不知如何这时竟转而仰天。幸好他右足只是虚点，这一步若是踏实了，势必踏在碗心，酒碗固然非破不可，同时身子向前一冲，焉得不败？ 他一惊之下，急忙半空移步，另踏一碗，身子晃动，背上已出了一身冷汗。斜眼看时，只见袁紫衣左足提起时将酒碗轻轻带起，也不知她足底如何使劲，放下时那酒碗已翻了过来，她左足顺势踏在碗口，右足提起，又将另一只酒碗翻转，这一手轻功自己如何能及？心想：“只有急使重手，乘着她未将酒碗尽数翻转，先将她打下桩去。”当下催动掌力，加快进逼。哪知袁紫衣不再与他正面对拳，只是来往游走，身法快捷异常。在碗口上一着足立即换步，竟无霎时之间停留，片刻之间，已将三十八只酒碗翻了三十六只，只剩下刘鹤真双脚所踏的两只尚未翻转。若不是胡斐适才掷了两只碗过去，他是连立足之处也没有了。 当此情势，刘鹤真只要一出足立时踏破酒碗，只有站在两只酒碗之上，不能移动半步，呆立少时，脸色凄惨，说道：“是姑娘胜了。”举步落地，脸上更是黄得宛如金纸一般。 袁紫衣大是得意，问道：“这掌门是我做了吧？”刘鹤真黯然道：“小老儿是服了你啦，但不知旁人有何话说？”袁紫衣正要发言询问众人，忽听得门外马蹄声急促异常，向北疾驰。
听这马蹄落地之声，世间除了自己的白马之外，更无别驹。她脸色微变，抢步出门，只见白马的背影刚在枫林边转过，马背上骑着一个灰衣男子，正是自己偷了他包袱的胡斐。 她纵声大叫：“偷马贼，快停下！”胡斐回头笑道：“偷包贼，咱们掉换了吧！”说着哈哈大笑，策马急驰。 袁紫衣大怒，提气狂奔，她轻功虽然了得，却怎及得上这匹日行千里的快马？奔了一阵，但见人马的影子越来越小，终于再也瞧不见了。 这一个挫折，将她连胜韦陀门四名好手的得意之情登时消得干干净净。她心下气恼，却又奇怪：“这白马大有灵性，怎能容这小贼偷了便跑，毫不反抗？” 她奔出数里，来到一个小镇，知道再也赶不上白马，要待找家茶铺喝茶休息，忽听得镇头一声长嘶，声音甚熟，正是白马的叫声。她急步赶去，转了一个弯，但见胡斐骑着白马，回头向她微笑招手。 袁紫衣大怒，随手拾起一块石子，向他背心投掷过去。胡斐除下头上帽子，反手一兜，将石子兜在帽中，笑道：“你还我包袱不还？”袁紫衣纵身向前，要去抢夺白马，突听呼的一响，一件暗器来势劲急，迎面掷将过来。 她伸左手接住，正是自己投过去的那块石子，就这么缓得一缓，只见胡斐双腿一夹，白马奔腾而起，倏忽已在十数丈外。 袁紫衣怒极，心想：“这小子如此可恶。”她不怪自己先盗人家包袱，却恼他两次戏弄，只恨白马脚程太快，否则追上了他，夺还白马不算，不狠狠揍他一顿，也真难出心头之气。只见一座屋子檐下系着一匹青马，她不管三七二十一，奔过去解开缰绳，飞身而上，向胡斐的去路疾追，待得马主惊觉，大叫大骂地追出来时，她早已去得远了。 袁紫衣虽有坐骑，但说要追上胡斐，却是休想，一口气全出在牲口身上，不住的乱鞭乱踢。那青马其实已是竭尽全力，她仍嫌跑得太慢。驰出数里，青马呼呼喘气，渐感不支。将近一片树林，只见一棵大松树下有一件白色之物，待得驰近，却不是那白马是什么？ 她心中大喜，但怕胡斐安排下诡计。引自己上当，四下里一望。不见此人影踪，这才纵马往松树下奔去。离那白马约有数丈，突见松树上一个人影落了下来，正好骑在白马背上，哈哈大笑，说道：“袁姑娘，咱们再赛一程。”这时袁紫衣哪再容他逃脱，双足在马镫上一登，身子突地飞起，如一只大鸟般向胡斐扑了过去。 胡斐料不到她竟敢如此行险，在空中飞扑而至，若是自己击出一掌。她在半空中如何能避？当即一勒马缰，要坐骑向旁避开。岂知白马认主，口中低声欢嘶，非但不避，反而向前迎上两步。 袁紫衣在半空中右掌向胡斐头顶击落，左手往他肩头抓去。胡斐一生之中，从未和年轻女子动过手，这次盗她白马，一来认得这是赵半山的坐骑，要问她一个明白，二来怪她取去自己包袱，显有轻侮之意，要小小报复一下，但突然见她当真动手，不禁脸上一红，身子一偏，跃离马背，从她身旁掠过，已骑上了青马。 二人在空中交差而过。胡斐右手伸出，潜运指力，扯断她背上包袱的系绳，已将包袱取在手中。袁紫衣夺还白马，余怒未消，又见包袱给他取回，叫道：“小胡斐，你怎敢如此无礼？”胡斐一惊，问道：“你怎知我名字？”袁紫衣小嘴微扁，冷笑道：“赵三叔夸你英雄了得，我瞧也稀松平常。” 胡斐听到“赵三叔”三字，心中大喜，忙道：“你识得赵半山赵三哥么？他在哪里？”袁紫衣俏脸上更增了一层怒气，喝道：“姓胡的小子，你
