Chapter 30 Chapter 30 Things are always separated like merchants
Yin Li sang these few little songs, and then sang again, but this time the singing was indescribably weird, completely different from the middle-earth tunes, carefully distinguishing the singing, the meaning of the words was also the same as what Xiao Zhao sang "Come like flowing water and pass away like wind, I don't know where it comes and where it ends!" She sang these two songs over and over again, singing lower and lower, and finally the singing disappeared without a trace with the sound of water and wind.
Everyone thinks that life and death are impermanent, that a person floats into the world, like a river, without knowing where it came from, no matter how heroic you are, in the end you will inevitably die, floated out of the world, and like a breeze, you don't know where it blows.Zhang Wuji felt that Zhao Min's slender fingers were as cold as ice in his palm, trembling slightly.
Xie Xun suddenly said: "This Persian ditty was taught by Mrs. Han. One night more than 20 years ago, I heard it once on the Bright Peak. Alas, I didn't expect Mrs. Han to be so heartless that she would treat this The child is hurting."
Zhao Min asked: "Old man, how can Mrs. Han sing a Persian ditty? Is this a Mingjiao song?"
Xie Xun said: "Mingjiao was passed down from Persia. This Persian song has some relationship with Mingjiao, but it is not a song of Mingjiao. This piece was composed by the most famous Persian poet Omo more than 200 years ago. It is said that every Persian Can sing. I heard Mrs. Han sing this song that day, and I was very touched. When I asked about the origin of this song, she told me in detail.
"At that time, the Persian great Zhe Yemang set up a tent to teach apprentices. There were three outstanding disciples under his disciples: Emo was good at literature; Wealth and wealth are not forgotten. Later, Niruomo was proud of Qingyun and became the prime minister of the leader. Two of his old friends came to join him, and Niruomo asked the leader to grant Huoshan an official position. Emo did not want to be an official, but only asked for a fortune Annuity, in order to live in peace, study astronomy and calculus, drink wine and recite poems. Nikumu obeyed one by one, and treated each other very kindly.
"Unexpectedly, Huo Shan was ambitious, unwilling to stay under others for a long time, and conspired to rebel. After his defeat, he formed a faction to take over the mountain and became the leader of a sect that shocked the world. This faction specializes in killing people. At that time, when the name of "Old Man in the Mountain" Huoshan was mentioned in the Western Regions, everyone was shocked. At that time, countless kings in the Western Regions died under the hands of the "Old Man in the Mountain". Mrs. Han said that there is a big country called England in the Western Regions. King Edward of the country offended the old man in the mountain, and he sent someone to assassinate him. The king was poisoned, but fortunately the queen sacrificed her life to save her husband and sucked the poison from the wound, so the king survived. Regardless of the old kindness, Huo Shan even sent people to assassinate Persia Prime Minister Niruomo. When the prime minister was about to die, he chanted the poems of Emo, which were these two lines: "Come like running water and pass away like wind. I don't know where to come and where to end." Mrs. Han said again, "the old man in the mountain" One school of martial arts was acquired by people from the Persian Ming Cult. The martial arts of the three Persian envoys are weird and weird, and it is expected to come from this old man in the mountain."
Zhao Min said: "Old man, Mrs. Han's character is like that old man in the mountain. You treat her with all kindness and righteousness, but she plots to harm you." Xie Xun sighed: "It's not unusual for people to repay kindness with grievances. It's not strange at all. ?”
Zhao Min lowered his head and pondered for a while, then said: "Mrs. Han is the head of the four kings of the Ming Sect, but her martial arts are not necessarily higher than the old man's. When fighting with the three envoys of Persia last night, why didn't she use the poisonous move of thousands of spiders and venomous hands?" " Xie Xun said: "Thousand spiders and ten thousand poisonous hands? Mrs. Han can't do it. A stunning beauty like her, who cherishes her appearance more than her life, how can she practice this kind of kung fu?"
Zhang Wuji, Zhao Min, Zhou Zhiruo, etc. were all taken aback, thinking that Grandma Jinhua was ugly, judging from her current appearance, even if she was thirty or forty years younger, she would never be able to talk about the word "extraordinary beauty", with a low nose Thick lips, a square face, and protruding ears, this face shape cannot be changed, Zhao Min smiled and said: "Old man, I don't think Granny Jinhua is very beautiful."
Xie Xun said: "What? Zishan Dragon King is as beautiful as a fairy. Twenty years ago, he was the most beautiful woman in the martial arts. Even though he is old now, his demeanor still seems to be preserved... Oh, I will never see you again Arrived."
Hearing his solemn words, Zhao Min vaguely felt that there was something strange about it. This ugly and crooked sick woman was actually the number one beauty in the martial arts back then. It was unbelievable to say anything. Needless to say, the martial arts are high. The White-browed Eagle King created his own pope, and he competed with the six major sects for more than 20 years. The Green Winged Bat King was haunted and intimidated me in Wan'an Temple that day. If you want to ruin my appearance, I will always have lingering fears when I think about it afterwards. Although Grandma Jinhua has high martial arts skills and deep scheming, she is not worthy of being ranked above the third, but I don't know why?"
Xie Xun said: "Second Brother Yin, Fourth Brother Wei and I let her be willing."
Zhao Min said: "Why?" She suddenly giggled and said: "Just because she is the most beautiful woman in the world, the hero is sad to be a beauty, are the three great heroes willing to worship under the pomegranate skirt?" The gift, thinking of it in his heart, he played a joke on Xie Xun unscrupulously.
Xie Xun didn't feel annoyed, and sighed: "There are more than three people who are willing to worship under the pomegranate skirt? At that time, there were only a hundred people who wanted to be favored by Dai Qisi, both inside and outside the church. " Zhao Min said: "Daikis? Is that Madam Han? What a strange name?" Xie Xun said: "She comes from Persia, this is a Persian name."
Zhang Wuji, Zhao Min, and Zhou Zhiruo were all taken aback, and said in unison: "Is she Persian?"
Xie Xun wondered: "Don't you all see it? She is a mix of Chinese and Persian women, her hair and eyes are black, but she has a high nose and deep eyes, and her skin is as white as snow. "
Zhao Min said: "No, no! She has a flat nose and squinted eyes, which is completely different from what you said. Mr. Zhang, do you think so?" Zhang Wuji said: "Yes. Could it be that she is also like Ku Toutuo Same, deliberately self-destroyed appearance?"
Xie Xun asked: "Who is Ku Toutuo?" Zhang Wuji said: "It is Fan Yao, the bright right envoy of the Ming Cult." Now let's briefly talk about Fan Yao's self-destructive appearance and going undercover in Ruyang Palace.Xie Xun sighed: "Brother Fan's move is painstaking and solitary. It is a great contribution to our religion. It is really beyond human ability. Sigh, it can also be said that this half is inspired by Mrs. Han."
Zhao Min said: "Old man, don't be fooled, just tell us from the beginning to the end."
Xie Xun let out a "hmm", looked up to the sky, and after being in a daze for a while, he said slowly: "More than twenty years ago, Ming Cult was very prosperous under the leadership of Yang Jiaozhu. On this day, three The Hu people from Persia held a handwritten letter from the leader of the Persian leader, and met with the leader of Yang. In the letter, he said that the leader of the Persian leader had a Jingshan envoy, who was originally from the Chinese family. Married a Persian woman and gave birth to a daughter. This Messenger of Pure Goodness died a year ago. When he was dying, he cherished his homeland and asked his daughter to return to China. The chief priest respected his wishes and sent someone to send his daughter to the light On the top. I hope that the Ming Cult of China will take good care of you. The Yang leader agreed and invited the girl to come in. As soon as the girl entered the hall, the hall was immediately filled with brilliance, but seeing her complexion was so glamorous. When she came to the Yang leader When Yingying bowed down, all the envoys of light, the Three Dharma Kings, the Five Sanren, and the envoys of the Five Elements in the hall were all shaken. The three Persians who escorted her stayed on the top of the light for one night and left the next day. Daikis, the Persian beauty, settled down on the top of the light."
Zhao Min smiled and said: "Old man, you fell in love with this beautiful Persian girl at that time, didn't you? Don't be shy, just tell me honestly." Xie Xun shook his head and said: "No! I was newly married at that time , and his wife are very affectionate, and the wife is pregnant again. How can I have another child?" Zhao Min said "Oh", regretting her slip of the tongue. She knew that Xie Xun's wife and children were killed by Cheng Kun, so she had no intention at this time. He said in a hurry, "That's right, that's right! No wonder Mrs. Han said that when she married Mr. Yinye, everyone in Guangmingding opposed her. Only Master Yang and you still treated her well. Think about it Yang Jiaozhu's wife is not only a beauty, but also a formidable person, she has subdued her husband."
Xie Xun said: "Master Yang is generous and heroic. Dai Qisi can be his daughter at her age. What's more, the leader of the Persian Church entrusted him to take care of her. She is absolutely benevolent and has no other thoughts. The wife of Master Yang is my master. Kun's junior sister is my senior aunt. Master Yang loves his wife very much." Cheng Kun killed his whole family, although the hatred in his heart grew deeper and deeper, but when Cheng Kun's name was mentioned, he only had a faint smile. It is no different from talking about an ordinary person.
Zhao Min said: "Kututuo Fan Yao is said to be a handsome man when he was young, he must have fallen in love with Dai Qisi very much?"
Xie Xun nodded and said: "It was love at first sight, and it finally became an unforgettable lovesickness. In fact, Brother Fan is not the only one like this. There are probably very few men who are not tempted by Dai Qisi's beauty. However, Mingjiao rules are strict, and everyone behaves politely. Anyone who expressed longing for Dai Qisi was also an unmarried man. However, Dai Qisi is as cold as ice to any man, and she does not pretend at all. No matter who shows affection for her, she will be reprimanded Suddenly, that person was so ashamed that it was difficult to step down. My teacher, Mrs. Guyang, wanted her to marry Fan Yao. Dai Qisi refused straight away. Later, she swore on herself in public, saying that she She is determined not to marry. If she is forced to marry, she would rather die than surrender. As a result, everyone's hearts are also cold.
"After half a year, one day a man came to Spirit Snake Island from overseas. He claimed to be Han, and his name was Qianye. He was the son of Master Yang's former enemy. Surprisingly, he dared to go up to the Guangming Summit alone to challenge the leader of Yang, and everyone laughed. But the leader of Yang looked solemn, accepted the gift of a big guest, and arranged a feast for him. After the banquet, he told the reasons for the brothers. Yang Jiaozhu didn't agree with his father back then, and hit his father seriously with a palm of the "Big Nine Heavens Hand". He knelt on the ground and couldn't stand up. At that time, his father said that he would take revenge for this in the future, but he knew that his martial arts I can't go further. In the future, I will either call my son or my daughter. Yang Jiaozhu said: "Whether it is a son or a daughter, he will give three tricks." The choice of children. Yang Jiaozhu agreed at that time. After more than ten years, Yang Jiaozhu didn't take this matter to heart, who would have thought that this surnamed Han sent his son here.
"Everyone thinks: good people don't come, and those who come are not good. This person dares to come up with a bright light alone. He must have amazing skills, but the martial arts of Master Yang is so high that he is almost invincible in the world, except Zhang Sanfeng of the Wudang sect. Real man, no one may be able to beat him with every single move. No matter how old this Han is, three or five of them will come together at the same time, and the leader of Yang will not take it to heart. The only thing to worry about is not knowing what he will do. Difficult subject.
"The next day, Han Qianye explained the promise made in the past in public. First, he squeezed the words of Yang Jiaozhu, so that he could not break his promise, and then he said the topic. He actually wanted to enter the clear water cold pool of Guangming Peak with Yang Jiaozhu. A showdown.
"As soon as he said this, everyone was stunned. The clear water and cold pool were icy cold, and no one dared to descend even in the midst of the heat. What's more, it was the middle of winter? Although Master Yang's martial arts were high, he didn't know the nature of water. This time, in the clear water and cold pool, there is no need for a martial arts competition, and he was frozen to death, and drowned. At that time, in the holy fire hall, all the heroes scolded him in unison."
Zhang Wuji said: "This matter is really difficult. Once a man speaks out, it's hard to follow. Yang Jiaozhu promised that the surnamed Han was to be chosen by his children. It is reasonable for Senior Han Qianye to choose the water battle. It is said that Master Yang cannot evade."
Zhao Min shook his palm instead, squeezed it, and said with a slight smile: "Yes, once a man speaks a word, it is hard to follow. What is the status of the leader of Mingjiao, how can he break his promise and lose his trust? Always do it."
What she said was Zhang Wuji.Talking about the oath between the two again, Xie Xun didn't know it, and said: "That's exactly the case. On that day, Han Qianye said loudly: 'When I got the light from Xiagu, I didn't expect to be able to come down the mountain alive. But apart from the Mingjiao, no one in Jianghu would know about cutting up my corpse with knives. I’m just a nobody. What’s the point of killing just one person? If you want to kill, come up and do it.” When everyone heard this, they fell Can't say anything more.
"Master Yang pondered for a while, and said: "Brother Han, I did have an appointment with your father back then. A good man is upright, and I lost this contest. I will let you know what you want to do." Han Qianye flipped his wrist, He showed a brilliant dagger, pointed it at his heart, and said: "This dagger is a relic of my late father. I only ask Master Yang to kowtow three times to this dagger." When the heroes heard this, they were all angry. How could he suffer such humiliation? But since the leader of Yang has conceded, according to the rules of the world, he has to be dealt with by the other party. The situation in front of him is very clear. Han Qianye has come here desperately. Put it in your heart, so as not to die at the hands of the Ming Cult heroes.
"Suddenly, there was no sound in the hall. The two Immortals Xiaoyao, the White-browed Eagle King Yin, the monk Peng Yingyu and others were usually resourceful, but when faced with this difficult problem, they were all helpless. Han Qianye said This move was clearly intended to force the death of Sect Master Yang, because of the humiliation of Xue's father who was seriously injured and kneeling on the ground, and then committed suicide.
"At this moment of urgency, Dai Qisi suddenly stepped forward in front of the crowd, and said to the leader of the sun: 'Father, he gave birth to a good son, why didn't you give birth to a good daughter? This Master Han avenged his father, The daughter will take over his tricks on behalf of the father. The previous generation belongs to the previous generation, and the next generation belongs to the next generation. Don't mess up the generations." Everyone was stunned: "Why did she call Master Yang as her father?" But she understood: "She pretended to be The daughter of the leader, I want to solve this dilemma." They all thought: "Looking at her delicate and fragile appearance, I don't know if she knows martial arts? Even if she knows martial arts, it must not be high. As for fighting in the clear water and cold pool, there is no need to talk about it. '
"Before Master Yang answered, Han Qianye had already sneered and said, "It's okay for the girl to accept the move on behalf of her father. If the girl loses, I still want Master Yang to kowtow three times to my father's dagger." He saw Dai Qisi She is both beautiful and weak, so why put her in front of your eyes? Dai Qisi said: "What if the honor loses?" Han Qianye said: "If you want to kill or cut, I will listen to you." Dai Qisi said: "Okay ! Let's go to the clear water and cold pool!' Saying that, let's do it first. Master Yang waved his hands hurriedly and said: "No! You don't need to get involved in this matter." Dai Qisi said: "Daddy, you don't have to worry about it." Followed by Yingying bow Go down. This obeisance is regarded as obeisance to Yang Jiaozhu as foster father.
"Yang Jiaozhu saw that she was very confident, and there was really no other way, so he had to listen to her advice. At that moment, everyone came to the clear water and cold pool in the shade of the mountain. After one stop, the cold air is already overwhelming, and those with a little weak internal energy will feel that it is not very useful. The pool water has already formed thick ice, and looking down, it is dark and deep, and it is bottomless.
"Master Yang thought that Dai Qisi should not die for him, so he said proudly: "My dear daughter, I appreciate your kindness, and I will accept Brother Han's brilliant move." Then he took off his outer robe and took out a handle Single sword, he decided to jump into the pool and never got up again. Dai Qisi smiled slightly and said: "Father, my daughter grew up by the sea and is proficient in water skills." She drew out her long sword and jumped into the pool In the middle, standing on the ice, the tip of the sword drew a circle with a diameter of two feet on the ice, stepped on it with the left foot, and with a soft rubbing sound, he had already stepped into the round ice, and his body sank into the pool."
At that time, the cold wind on the sea came from the north, blowing everyone's clothes.Xie Xun said: "Thinking back on the scene by the clear water and cold pool at that time, it is as if it just happened yesterday. Dai Qisi was wearing a lavender dress that day. She stood on the ice like this, she was really as good as Ling Ling." Fairy Bo suddenly broke through the ice and entered the pool without a sound, watching the heroes, all of them were amazed. Seeing her skill in entering the water, Han Qianye immediately put away the arrogance on his face, held the dagger in his hand, and jumped into the pool middle.
"The clear water and cold pool are dark green in color. You can't see the two people fighting from above, but you can see the water in the pool is shaking. After a while, the shaking gradually stopped, but soon the water in the pool became agitated again. The heroes of Mingjiao They were all extremely worried. Seeing that the two of them had been in the pool for a long time, how could they stay at the bottom of the water for a long time? After a while, suddenly a ray of bright red blood seeped up from the green pool. Everyone was even more anxious, wondering if it was Dai Qisi was injured. Suddenly there was a loud noise, and Han Qianye jumped up from the ice cave, panting uncontrollably. Everyone was shocked when they saw that he went up first, and they all asked, "Where is Dai Qisi? Dai Qisi What about silk?" He had both hands empty, but his dagger was stuck in his right chest, and there were long scars on each cheek.
"While everyone was amazed, Dai Qisi leaped up from the pool like a flying fish out of the water, protected her body with a long sword, and circled lightly in mid-air before landing on the ice. The crowd cheered loudly. Master Yang stepped forward Holding her hand, she was so happy that she couldn't speak. No one expected that such a charming girl could be so good at underwater. Dai Qisi glanced at Han Qianye and said, "Daddy, this Human nature is not bad, think of his filial piety to avenge his father, let him forgive the crime of being rude to the leader?" Yang leader naturally agreed, and ordered the genius doctor Hu Qingniu to heal his wounds.
"There was a big banquet at the Bright Summit that night, and everyone said that Dai Qisi was a great hero of the Ming Cult. If she hadn't stepped forward to save the siege, the name of Yang Jiao I would have been given to Liu Shui. Right now, Madam Yang gave her a 'purple shirt' The title of "Dragon King" is tied with Eagle King, Lion King, and Bat King. Our three kings are willing to let her rank first among the four kings. Her great achievements today can overshadow all the past achievements of the three kings .Later, our three Dharma kings were called her brothers and sisters, so she called me 'Brother Xie'.
"Unexpectedly, the outcome of the battle at Bishui Hantan was beyond everyone's expectations. Although Han Qianye was defeated, somehow, he won Dai Qisi's heart. I think she went to inspect the wounds every day. On the side of the sick bed, Compassion begets love, from apologizing to Han Qianye, when Han Qianye recovered from his injury, Dai Qisi suddenly told the leader that she wanted to marry this person.
"When everyone heard this news, some were sad and disappointed, and some were filled with resentment. This Han Qianye forced everyone from the leader to the next day to be in a mess. How can the protector of the sect marry this person? Some temper The rude brother insulted her face to face. Dai Qisi stood at the entrance of the hall with her sword in her arms, and said loudly, "From now on, Han Qianye is my husband. Whoever insults Han Lang, come and try Zi." Long Sword of the Dragon King of Shirts!' Everyone saw the situation like this, and they only broke up with hatred.
"She married Han Qianye, and more than half of the brothers did not go to the wedding banquet. Only Master Yang and I were grateful for her virtue of rescuing the siege, and did our best to help her resolve it, so that she got married safely and nothing went wrong. But Han Qian Ye wanted to join Ming Cult, but in the end there were too many people who opposed it, and it was too inconvenient for the leader of Yang to persuade everyone. Not long after the incident, the leader of Yang and his wife suddenly disappeared at the same time, and people on the top of Guangming were panic-stricken. Fan Yao actually saw Mrs. Han Dai Qisi coming out of the secret passage."
Zhang Wuji shuddered, and said, "She came out of the secret passage?"
Xie Xun said: "That's right. Mingjiao's rules are extremely strict, and only the leader can go to this secret way. Frightened and furious, Fan Yao stepped forward to question him. Mrs. Han said: "I have committed a serious crime in this religion. If I want to be killed, I will cut to pieces." Please listen to it.' At the group meeting that night, Mrs. Han still only said these few words. When asked what she was doing in the secret path, she said that she didn't want to lie, but she didn't want to tell the truth; Where, she said she didn't know at all, and as for the matter of entering the secret path privately, it's useless to talk too much. It stands to reason that she didn't kill herself, so she should have cut off a limb, but once Fan Yao didn't forget her old feelings, she tried her best to cover it up for her. Second, I was interceding, and the group of heroes decided to punish her for ten years of confinement, thinking about her past. But Dai Qisi said: "Master Yang is not here, no one can control me.'"
Zhang Wuji asked: "Father, why did Mrs. Han enter the secret path privately?"
Xie Xun said: "It's a long story. I was the only one in the church who knew about it. At that time, everyone suspected that it might have something to do with the disappearance of the Yang leader and his wife, but I tried my best to prove that there was absolutely no connection. She froze, and finally Mrs. Han broke the door and went out to teach, saying that from now on, she has nothing to do with the Mingjiao in Zhongtu. She was the first to pour out the Mingjiao, and she and Han Qianye floated down the peak today, without a trace.
"From then on, all the brothers in the sect could not find the leader. After several years, they fought for the position of leader, and things got worse and worse. The second elder brother Baimeiyin went down to the Bright Summit again and created his own Tianying sect. I tried hard to persuade, He insisted on not listening, and the two brothers turned against each other. More than 20 years ago, Wang Panshan Tianying taught him to use his sword to show his power, and the golden lion king rushed to kick him. Breathing out the bad breath of the past, I deliberately wanted to make Second Brother Yin down, and let him know that after leaving Mingjiao, he might not be able to achieve anything. Sigh, thinking about it today, but it is too emotional!"
In his long sigh, there are endless bitter memories and countless turmoil in the world.
Everyone was silent for a while.Zhao Min said: "Old man, later on Jinhuayinye was so powerful that it shocked the world, how could people in the Ming Cult not recognize her? Then Mr. Yinye must be Han Qianye, how could he be poisoned to death?"
Xie Xun said: "I don't know what happened in the middle. It seems that when he and his wife were walking on the rivers and lakes, they tried to avoid the people of Mingjiao." Zhang Wuji said: "That's right. Granny Jinhua has never been with Mingjiao people. When the six major sects besieged Mingjiao, even though she reached the top of the light, she did not go to the top to help."
Zhao Min pondered and said: "But Zishan Dragon King's appearance is peerless, how could he become so ugly? It's not because of any damage on his face." Xie Xun said: "I guess she must have used some ingenious method to change her face. Mrs. Han lived her life Acting eccentrically, she actually has unspeakable difficulties in her heart. She has spent her whole life evading the pursuit of the people from the Persian Archbishop, but in the end she still cannot escape."
Zhang Wuji and Zhao Minqi asked: "Why did the Persian head teacher look for her?"
Xie Xun said: "This is Mrs. Han's biggest secret. It shouldn't be said. But I hope you will go back to Spirit Snake Island to save her, but you have to say it." Zhao Min said in surprise: "Let's go back to Spirit Snake Island Go? Can you beat the three Persian envoys?"
Xie Xun didn't answer, and narrated the past by himself: "For hundreds of years, the leader of Mingjiao in China has always been a man, but the leader of Persia has always been a woman, and she is a virgin who does not marry. A virgin is the leader to maintain the sanctity of Mingjiao. After each leader takes over, he selects the three daughters of high-ranking people in the church, called "Saints". Mingjiao has made meritorious deeds. After the death of the leader, the elders of the church will gather to discuss the merits of the three saintesses, and choose the saintess who has done the most to succeed the leader. However, if any of the three saintesses loses their virginity, they will be burned Even if he fled to the ends of the earth, the church will send people to hunt him down, in order to protect the sage and teach chastity..."
When he said this, Zhao Min lost his voice: "Could it be that Mrs. Han is one of the three saintesses of the head teacher?"
Xie Xun nodded and said: "Exactly! Before Fan Yaofa found her entering the secret path, I actually discovered it first. Mrs. Han regarded me as a confidant and told the truth one by one. She fought Han Qianye in the cold pool of clear water, Skin to skin in the water, she couldn't help it, and she would comfort her in the sick bed in the future, and she would end up being wronged. She knew that the head teacher would send someone to investigate one day, and she only hoped to make a great contribution to the head teacher to atone for her sins. She sneaked into the secret passage and What I want to do is to find the martial arts mentality of 'The Great Shift of the Universe', which has been lost for a long time, but the Middle Earth Mingjiao still survives. This is the intention of the chief teacher to send her to Guangmingding."
Zhang Wuji let out an "ah", vaguely feeling that something was quite wrong, but he couldn't figure out what it was for a while.I only heard Xie Xun say: "Mrs. Han has sneaked into the secret path several times, but she still can't find this martial arts mentality. After I learned about it, I solemnly warn that this violates the rules of my teaching, and it is really hard to tolerate..." Zhao Min interjected: " Ah, I know. Mrs. Han broke out of the sect in order to continue to sneak into the secret path, since she is not a member of the Ming Cult of Middle Earth, she will not be restrained if she enters the secret path again."
Xie Xun said: "Miss Zhao is very clever. But Guangmingding is the fundamental place of our religion, how can outsiders be allowed to come and go at will? I also guessed her intention at that time. After Mrs. Han went down the mountain, I personally guarded the secret passageway. Mrs. Han once privately I went up the mountain three times and saw me every time, so I lost my heart."
Xie Xun thought for a moment, then asked: "Is there any difference between the clothes of the three Persian envoys and Mingjiao in China?" Zhang Wuji said: "They all wear white robes with red flames embroidered on the corners of the robes...well, There are black edges on the white robes, this is the only small difference." Xie Xun patted the side of the boat and said: "Yes. The head teacher passed away. People in the Western Regions wear black as mourning clothes, and the white robes are trimmed with black edges. It's mourning. They want to elect a new leader, so they traveled thousands of miles to China to track down Madam Han's whereabouts."
Zhang Wuji said: "Since Mrs. Han is from Persia, she must know the strange martial arts of the three Persian envoys. How could she restrain them without a single move?" Zhao Min laughed and said, "You are so stupid. Mrs. Han is just pretending. She wants to hide her identity, so she can't show that she understands Persian martial arts. According to my guess, if Mr. Xie listens to the words of the three Persian envoys and kills her, Mrs. Han must have a plan to escape." Xie Xun shook his head and said: "She won't show it Her own status is good, but it may not be possible to escape immediately after being hit by the three Persian envoys on her acupuncture points. She would rather be killed by me than suffer from the burning fire."
Zhao Mindao: "I said that the Ming Cult of China is a cult, but I don't know that the Ming Cult of Persia is even more evil. Why must a virgin be the leader? Why burn the saint who lost her virginity?" Xie Xun scolded: "Little girl Nonsense. Every denomination has its rules and ceremonies passed down from generation to generation. Monks and nuns are not allowed to marry or eat meat. Isn’t that a rule? What is evil?”
Suddenly there was a rattling sound, Yin Li's teeth clashed, and he couldn't help shivering.Zhang Wuji touched her forehead, but it was still very hot. It was obvious that the cold and heat were attacking, and he was very ill. He said, "Father, the child also wants to go back to Spirit Snake Island. Miss Yin's injury is not serious, so we must seek medical treatment. Let's do our best But for the sake of it, Madam Han cannot be saved, but Miss Yin should be saved." Xie Xun said: "That's right. This Miss Yin has such deep affection for you, how can you not save her? Miss Zhou, Miss Zhao, what do you two think? ?” Zhao Min said: "Miss Yin's injury is important, but mine is not. How can we not go back to Spirit Snake Island?" Zhou Zhiruo said indifferently: "If the old man says go back, he will go back." Zhang Wuji said: "We have to wait until the fog clears up, and when we see the stars, we can tell the direction. Yifu, that Liuyun envoy can turn two hollow somersaults in a row, but he can hurt me with the holy fire order, why is that?" The two of them immediately Studying the number of families of the three Persian envoys' martial arts, Zhao Min has learned a lot, and occasionally consults what he has seen, but after talking for a long time, he still can't guess the gist of the three's joint kung fu. The fog on the sea will not dissipate until the sun comes out.Zhang Wuji said: "We came from the north to the southeast, now we should row to the northwest." He, Xie Xun, Zhou Zhiruo and Xiao Zhao took turns rowing.Steering a boat on the sea, surfing the waves and breaking the waves is not an easy task. Fortunately, although Zhang Wuji and Xie Xun have deep internal strength, Zhou Zhiruo and Xiao Zhao also have considerable cultivation skills. Pulling the oars and rowing the boat should only be considered as a practice of martial arts. For several days in a row, a lone boat rowed northwest non-stop. In the past few days, Xie Xun frowned, thinking hard about the strange martial arts of the three Persian envoys, he didn't say anything except asking Zhang Wuji a few words.On the evening of the sixth day, Xie Xun suddenly questioned Zhou Zhiruo carefully about the Emei Kungfu he had learned, and Zhou Zhiruo answered truthfully.The two asked and answered questions until late at night.Xie Xun looked very disappointed, and said: "The three martial arts schools of Shaolin, Wudang, and Emei are all related to the Nine Suns Scripture, and like what Wuji learned, they all tend to be masculine. If Daoist Zhang Sanfeng is here, with him Masculine and feminine all-encompassing extensive martial arts and Wuji teamed up, then the combination of yin and yang can defeat the three Persian envoys. But the far water cannot save the near fire, if Mrs. Han falls into the hands of the three Persian envoys, then what to do ?” Zhou Zhiruo suddenly asked: "Old man, I heard that in the martial arts a hundred years ago, some masters were proficient in the Nine Yin Manual, is there such a thing?" Zhang Wuji once heard the name of the "Nine Yin Manual" mentioned by his grand master on Wudang Mountain. He knew that Guo Jing, the father of the female hero Guo Xiang, the founder of the Emei School, and Yang Guo, the hero of the carving, all knew the martial arts in the Nine Yin Manual. But the kung fu in the scriptures was too difficult, even though Guo Xiang was Guo Jing's own daughter, she couldn't learn it. Hearing Zhou Zhiruo's question, she thought to herself: "Could it be that she, the founder of the Emei School, also passed down some 'Nine Yins' Is it the kung fu in the scriptures?" Xie Xun said: "That's what old people say, but no one knows whether it's true or not. I heard the elders say it's amazing. If there is someone who has learned this martial art today and join forces with Wuji to fight the enemy, the three envoys of Persia will naturally respond. Get rid of it." Zhou Zhiruo let out a "huh" and stopped asking. Zhao Min asked: "Miss Zhou, is there anyone in your Emei sect who knows this martial art?" Zhou Zhiruo said: "If anyone in the Emei sect possesses this miraculous skill, the former master would not have died in Wan'an Temple." The root cause was Zhao Min, Zhou Zhiruo hated her so much that she was in the same boat day and night, but never spoke to her.At this moment, Zhao Min confronted her directly, so she contradicted her.She has a gentle personality, and speaking like this is the most unkind language she has ever spoken to people in her life.Zhao Min was not angry, but just smiled. Zhang Wuji couldn't stop pulling his gun, suddenly looked into the distance and shouted: "Look, look! There is a fire over there." Everyone followed his gaze, only to see a slight flicker of fire in the northwest corner where the sea meets the sky.Although Xie Xun couldn't see it, he was as surprised as everyone else in his heart, picked up the wooden oar, and rowed vigorously. The flames were not far away, but they were actually on the sea, tens of miles away.The two rowed for a long time before they gradually approached.Zhang Wuji saw that the mountains where the flames came from stood up, which was Spirit Snake Island, and said, "We're back!" Xie Xun suddenly called out "Ah Yo", and said, "Why is Spirit Snake Island so brightly lit? Are they going to burn Mrs. Han?" There was only a thud, and Xiao Zhao fell on the bow of the boat.Zhang Wuji was taken aback, and went to help her up, but saw that her eyes were closed tightly, she had fainted, so he pinched her acupoints to wake her up, and asked, "Xiao Zhao, what's the matter with you?" Xiao Zhao's eyes widened With tears in his eyes, he said: "I heard that people are going to be burned alive, I... I... I'm scared." Zhang Wuji comforted: "This is Mr. Xie's guess, it may not be true. Even if Mrs. Han falls into their hands , let’s go there immediately, and most likely we can save him in time.” Xiao Zhao grabbed his hand and begged, “My lord, I beg you, you must save Mrs. Han’s life.” Zhang Wuji said: “All of us Do your best." As he spoke, he returned to the stern, picked up the wooden oar, pumped up his inner strength, and rowed faster than before.Xiao Zhao grabbed the wooden oar, although his hands trembled, he paddled vigorously. Zhao Min suddenly said: "Mr. Zhang, there are two things I have been thinking about for a long time, but I still can't understand them. I need your advice." Hearing that she suddenly became polite, Zhang Wuji asked in surprise, "What's the matter?" Outside Luliu Village, I sent people to attack Grandfather Ling and Yang Zuo, and it was Miss Xiao Zhao who sent people to resist. It is true that a strong general has no weak soldiers, and a little maid under the leader of Mingjiao has such abilities , It's really strange..." Xie Xun interjected and asked, "What Mingjiao leader?" Zhao Min laughed and said: "Old man, let me tell you at this time, your righteous son is the dignified leader of Mingjiao, but you are his subordinate." Xie Xun was half-believing and speechless for a while.Zhao Min briefly talked about how Zhang Wuji became the leader, but she didn't know many details.Zhang Wuji was pressed by Xie Xun's questions, and he couldn't hide any more, so he had to tell how the six major factions besieged Guangmingding, how he obtained the Great Teleportation of the Universe in the secret way, and so on. Xie Xun was overjoyed, he stood up, bowed down in the cabin, and said: "My subordinate, Golden Retriever Lion King Xie Xun, see the leader." Zhang Wuji hurriedly knelt down to return the salute, and said, "Father-father doesn't need to be too polite. Master Yang passed his order, and father-in-law is asked to take the position of leader temporarily. The child is suffering from heavy responsibilities. Fortunately, father-in-law came back safe and sound. It is really a blessing for our sect. After arriving in Middle-earth, the father-in-law was supposed to take over the position of leader." Xie Xun said sadly: "Although your father-in-law has returned, his eyes are already blind, and the word 'no harm' cannot be said. How can the leader be a blind person? Miss Zhao, what two things do you not understand?" Zhao Mindao: "I would like to ask Miss Xiaozhao, who taught those strange gossip, yin-yang and five-element techniques? How did you acquire such extraordinary abilities at such a young age?" Xiao Zhao said: "This is my family's martial arts, it's not worth the princess's smile." Zhao Min asked again: "Who is your father? If my daughter is so good, her parents must be famous masters all over the world." Xiao Zhao said: "My father buried his name Incognito, He Laojun took the initiative to ask? Do you want to cut off some of my fingers and force me to ask about my martial arts?" At a young age, she refused to give in to Zhao Min verbally. Provoke Zhou Zhiruo's heart of hatred against the enemy. 赵敏笑了笑，转头向张无忌道：“张公子，那晚咱们在大都小酒店中第二次叙会，苦头陀范遥前来向我作别，他见到小昭姑娘之时，说了两句甚么话？”张无忌早将这件事忘了，听她提起，想了一会，才道：“苦大师好像是说，小昭的相貌很像一个他相识之人。”赵敏道：“不错。你猜苦大师说小昭姑娘像谁？”张无忌道：“我怎猜得到？”
说话之间，小船离灵蛇岛更加近了，只见岛西一排排的停了大船，每张白帆上都绘了个大大的红花火焰，帆上都悬挂黑色飘带。 张无忌皱眉道：“波斯总教劳师动众，派来的人可不少啊。”赵敏道：“咱们划到岛后，拣个隐僻的所在登陆，别让他们发见了。”张无忌点头道：“是！” 刚划出三四丈，突然间大船上号角呜呜，跟着砰砰两声，两枚炮弹打将过来，一枚落在船左，一枚落在船右，激起两条水柱，小船剧晃，几乎便要翻转。大船上有人叫道：“来船快划过来，如若不听将令，立时轰沉。” 张无忌暗暗叫苦，心知适才这两炮敌船志在示威，故意打在小船两侧，现下相距如此之近，敌人瞄准极易，当真一炮轰在船中，六人无一得免，只得划动小船，慢慢靠过去。 三艘敌船的炮口缓缓转动，对准小船。待小船靠近，大船上放下绳梯。张无忌道：“咱们上去，相机夺船。”谢逊摸到绳梯，第一个爬上大船。周芷若一言不发，俯身抱起殷离，从绳梯攀上船去。跟着便是小昭。张无忌抱了赵敏，最后一个攀上。只见船上一干人个个黄发碧眼，身材高大，均是波斯胡人，那流云使等三使却不在其内。 一个会说中国话的波斯人问道：“你们是谁？到这里来干甚么？”赵敏道：“我们飘洋遇险，座船沉没，多蒙相救。”那波斯人将信将疑，转头向坐在甲板正中椅上的首领说了几句波斯话。那首领向手下叽哩咕噜的吩咐几句。 小昭突然纵身而起，发掌便向那首领击去。那首领一惊，闪身避过，抓起坐椅，便向小昭砸来。张无忌没料到小昭这么快便即动手，身形一侧，欺上三尺，伸指将那首领点倒，船上数十名波斯人登时大乱，纷纷抽出兵刃，围了上来。这些人虽然均有武功，但与风云三使相去可就极远。张无忌右手扶着殷离，左手东点一指，西拍一掌。谢逊使开屠龙刀，周芷若挥动长剑，再加上小昭身形灵动，片刻之间，已将船上数十名波斯人料理了。十余人被砍翻在甲板之上，七八人堕入海中，余下尽数被点中了穴道。 霎时之间，海旁呼喊声、号角声乱成一片。其余波斯船只靠了过来，船上人众便欲涌上相斗。张无忌提起那波斯首领，跃上横桁，朗声叫道：“谁敢上来，我便将此人一掌劈死。”只听得各船上众人大声呼喊，张无忌虽一句也听不懂，但见无人跃上船来，想来所擒之人颇有身分，对方心存顾忌，一时不敢来攻。 张无忌跃回甲板，刚放下那个首领，蓦地里背后铮的一声响，一件兵刃砸了过来，急忙侧身相避，反脚踢出，迎面一根圣火令击到，左侧又有一根横掠而至。张无忌暗暗叫苦，心想风云三使来得好快，叫道：“大家退入船舱。”提起那个首领，往一根圣火令上迎去。 辉月使急忙收令，但收招急促，下盘露出空隙，张无忌一腿扫去，险些踢中了她小腿。流云、妙风两使自旁急攻，迫使张无忌这一腿未能踢实。拆到第九招上，妙风使左手圣火令斜击甩上，招数怪异无比，堪堪便要点中张无忌小腹。张无忌将那波斯首领的身子一沉。妙风使这一招便得古怪，张无忌这一下却也是极其巧妙，只听得拍的一声响，这一记圣火令正好打在那波斯人的左颊之上。风云三使齐声惊呼，脸色大变，同时向后跃开，交谈了几句波斯话，突然躬身向张无忌手中的波斯人行礼，神色极是恭敬，跟着便即退回。 忽听得号角声此起彼落，一艘大船缓缓驶到，船头上插了十二面绣金大旗。船头上设着十二张虎皮交椅，有一张空着，其余十一张均有人乘坐。那大船驶到近处，便停住了。赵敏见空着的那张虎皮交椅排在第六。With a thought.说道：“咱们抓到的此人和大船上那十一人服色相同，看来是他们十二个人首领之一，他位居第六。”谢逊道：“十二个大首领？嗯，总教十二宝树王齐来中土，非同小可。”赵敏问道：“甚么十二宝树王？” 谢逊道：“波斯总教教主座下，共有十二位大经师，称为十二宝树王，身分地位相当于中土明教的四大护救法王。这十二宝树王第一大圣，二者智慧，三者常胜，四者掌火，五者勤修，六者平等，七者信心，八者镇恶，九者正直，十者功德，十一齐心，十二俱明。只是十二宝树王以精研教义、精运经典为主，听说并不一定武功高强。这人位列第六，那么是平等宝树王了。” 张无忌在桅杆边坐下，将平等王横放在膝盖之上，这人既在波斯总教中地位极高，自己一干人脱险求生，势非着落在他身上不可，俯首见他左颊高高肿起，幸好非致命之伤。想是妙风使一令击出，已知不对，急忙收力，加之这人也有相当内功，颇有抵御之劲。 周芷若和小昭收拾甲板上的众波斯人，将已死的尸首搬入后舱，未死的一一排齐。只见十余艘波斯大船四下围住，各船上的大炮对准了张无忌等人的座船，每一艘船船舷上都站满了波斯人，火把照耀下刀剑闪烁。密密麻麻的不知有多少人，张无忌暗暗心惊，别说各船开炮轰击，这成千成百人一涌而上，自己便有三头六臂。也是难以抵挡，纵能仗着绝顶武功脱困，但无论如何不能保护得旁人周全，殷离和赵敏身上有伤，更是危险。 只听得一名波斯人以中国话朗声说道：“金毛狮王听了，我总教十二宝树王俱在此间，你得罪总教之罪，诸宝树王宽于赦免。你速速将船上诸位总教教友献出，自行开船去罢。”谢逊笑道：“谢某又不是三岁小儿，我们一放俘虏，你们船上的大炮还不轰将过来吗？”那人怒道：“你就算不放，我们的大炮便不能轰吗？” 谢逊沉吟道：“我有三个条件，贵方答应了，我们便恭送这里的总教教友上岸。”那人道：“甚么条件？”谢逊道：“第一，此后总教和中土明教相亲相敬，互不干扰。”那人道：“嗯，第二呢？”谢逊道：“你们放黛绮丝过船，免了她的失贞之罪，此后不再追究。”那人怒道：“此事万万不可。黛绮丝犯了总教大规，当遭焚身之刑，跟你们中土明教有甚么相干？第三件是甚么？”谢逊道：“你第二件事也不能答应，何况再说第三件？”那人道：“好！这第二事就算允了，第三件不妨说来听听。” 谢逊道：“这第三件吗？那可易办之至。你们派一艘小船，跟在我们的座船之后。驶出五十里后，我们见你们不派大船追来，便将俘虏放入小船，任由你们携走。” 那人大怒，喝道：“胡说九道！胡说九道！” 谢逊等都是一怔，不知他说些甚么，赵敏笑道：“此人学说中国话，可学得稀松平常。他以为胡说八道多一道，那便更加荒唐了。”谢逊和张无忌一想不错，虽然眼前局势紧迫，却也忍不住哈哈大笑起来。 这位在“胡说八道”上加了一道的人物，乃是诸宝树王中位居末座的俱明宝树王。他听得谢逊等嘻笑，更是恼怒，一声唿哨，和位列第十一的齐心宝树王纵身跃上船来。 张无忌上前去，左掌往齐心王胸口推去。齐心王竟不挡架，伸左手往他头顶抓下。张无忌眼看自己这一掌要先打到他身上，哪知俱明王从斜刺里双掌推到，接过了他这一掌，齐心王的手指却直抓下来。张无忌向前急冲一步，方得避过，才知他二人攻守联手，便如是个四手四腿之人一般。三人迅如奔雷闪电般拆了七八招。 张无忌心下暗惊，这二人比之风云三使稍有不及，但武功仍是十分怪异，明明和乾坤大挪移的心法极为相似，可是一到使用出来，总是大为变形，全然无法捉摸，然以招数凌厉巧妙而言，却又远不及乾坤大挪移。似乎这二人都是疯子，偶尔学到了一些挪移乾坤的武功，学得既不到家，又是神智昏乱，胡踢瞎打，常人反倒不易抵御。但两人联守之紧密，和风云三使如出一辙。张无忌勉力抵御，只战了个平手，预计再拆二三十招，方可占到上风。 便在此时，风云三使齐声呼啸，又攻上船来，同时趋向平等王，只盼将他抢回，以折免失手击了他一令之罪。谢逊举起平等王左右挥舞，划成一个个极大的圈子。风云三使这次如何敢贸然欺前？左趋右闪，想找寻空隙攻上。 蓦地里俱明王闷哼一声，中腿摔倒。张无忌俯身待要擒拿，流云使和辉月使双令齐到，妙风使已抱起俱明王跃回己船。这时齐心王和云月二使联手，配合已不如风云三使严谨，接战数合，眼见难以取胜，三人几声唿哨，便即跃回。 张无忌定了定神，说道：“这一干人似乎学过挪移乾坤之术，偏又学得不像，当真难以对付。”谢逊道：“本教的乾坤大挪移心法本是源于波斯。但数百年前传入中土之后，波斯本国反而失传，他们所留存的，据黛绮丝说只是些不三不四的皮毛，因此才派她到光明顶来，想偷回心法。”张无忌道：“他们武功的根基甚是肤浅，果然只是些皮毛，但运用之际却又十分巧妙。显然中间另有一个重大的关键所在，我没揣摩得透。嗯，那挪移乾坤的第七层功夫之中，有一些我没练成，难道便是为此么？”说着坐着甲板之上，抱头苦思。谢逊等均不出声，生怕扰乱他的思路。 忽然间小昭“啊哟”一声惊呼，张无忌抬起头来，只见风云三使押着一人，走到了十一宝树王之前。那人佝偻着身子，手撑拐杖，正是金花婆婆。坐在第二张椅中的智慧宝树王向她喝问数语，金花婆婆侧着头，大声道：“你说甚么？我不懂。”智慧王冷笑一声，站起身来，左手一探，已揭下了金花婆婆顶上满头白发，露出乌丝如云。金花婆婆头一侧，向左避让，智慧王右手倏出，竟在她脸上揭下了一层面皮下来。 张无忌等看得清楚，智慧王所揭下的乃是一张人皮面具，刹那之间，金花婆婆变成了一个肤如凝脂、杏眼桃腮的美艳妇人，容光照人，端丽难言。 黛绮丝被他揭穿了本来面目，索性将拐杖一抛，只是冷笑。智慧王说了几句话，她便以波斯话对答。二人一问一答，但见十一位宝树王的神色越来越是严重。 赵敏忽问：“小昭姑娘，他们说些甚么？”小昭流泪道：“你很聪明，你甚么都知道，却干么事先不阻止谢老爷子别说？”赵敏奇道：“阻止他别说甚么？” 小昭道：“他们本来不知金花婆婆是谁，后来知道她是紫衫龙王了，但决计想不到紫衫龙王便是圣女黛绮丝。婆婆一番苦心，只盼能将他们骗倒。谢老爷子所提的第二个条款，却要他们释放圣女黛绮丝，虽是好心，可就瞒不过智慧宝树王了。谢老爷子目不见物，自不知金花婆婆装得多像，任谁也能瞒过。赵姑娘，你却瞧得清清楚楚，难道便想不到么？” 其实赵敏听了谢逊在海上所说的故事，心中先入为主，认定金花婆婆便是波斯明教的圣女黛绮丝，一时可没想到在波斯诸人眼中，她的真面目却并未揭破。她待要反唇相稽，但听小昭语音十分悲苦，隐隐已料到她和金花婆婆之间必有极不寻常的关连，不忍再出重言，只道：“小昭妹子，我确是没想到。若是有意加害金花婆婆，教我不得好死。” 谢逊更是歉仄，当下一句话也不说，心中打定了主意，宁可自己性命不在，也得相救黛绮丝出险。 小昭泣道：“他们责备金花婆婆，说她既嫁人，又叛教，要……要烧死她。”张无忌道：“小昭，你别着急，一有可乘之机，我便冲过去救婆婆出来。”他叫惯了婆婆，其实此时瞧紫衫龙王的本来面目，虽已中年，但风姿嫣然，实不减于赵敏、周芷若等人，倒似是小昭的大姊姊。小昭道：“不，不！十一个宝树王，再加风云三使，你斗他们不过的，不过枉自送了性命。他们这时在商量如何夺回平等王。”
赵敏恨恨的道：“哼！这平等王便活着回去，脸上印着这几行字，丑也丑死啦。”张无忌问道：“甚么脸上印着字？”赵敏道：“那黄胡子使者的圣火令一下子打中了他左颊……啊，小昭！”突然想起一事，问道：“小昭妹子，你识波斯字么？”小昭道：“识得。”赵敏道：“你快瞧瞧，这平等王脸上印着的是甚么字。” 小昭搬起平等王上身，侧过他的头来，只见他左颊高高肿起，三行波斯文深印肉里。原来每根圣火令上都刻得有文字，妙风使误击平等王，竟将圣火令上的文字印在他的肌肉上了。只是圣火令着肉处不过两寸宽、三寸长，所印文字残缺不全。 小昭跟随张无忌进入光明顶秘道，曾将乾坤大挪移心法背诵几遍，虽然未得张无忌吩咐，自己未曾习练，但这武功的法门却记得极熟，其时张无忌在秘道中练至第七层心法时遇有疑难，跳过费解之处不练，小昭曾一一记诵，这时看了平等王脸上的文字，不禁脱口而呼：“那也是乾坤大挪移心法！” 张无忌奇道：“你说是乾坤大挪移心法？”小昭道：“不，不是！我初时一见，以为是了，却又不是。译成中国话，意思是这样：'应左则前，须右乃后，三虚七实，无中生有'……甚么'天方地圆……'下面的看不到了。” 这几句寥寥十余字的言语，张无忌乍然听闻，犹如满天乌云之中，骤然间见到电光闪了几闪，虽然电光过后，四下里仍是一团漆黑，但这几下电闪，已让他在五里浓雾之中看到了出路，口中喃喃念道：“应左则前，须右乃后……”竭力想将这几句口诀和所习乾坤大挪移的武功配合起来，隐隐约约的似乎想到了，但似是而非，终究不对。 忽听得小昭叫道：“公子，留神！他们已传下号令：风云三使要来向你进攻，勤修王、镇恶王、功德王三王来抢平等王。” 谢逊当即将平等王身子横举在胸口，把屠龙刀抛给张无忌，说道：“你用刀猛砍便是。”赵敏也将倚天剑交给了周芷若，此刻同舟共济，并肩迎敌要紧。 张无忌接过屠龙刀，心不在焉的往腰间一插，口中仍在念诵：“三虚七实，无中生有……”赵敏急道：“小呆子，这当儿可不是参详武功的时候，快预备迎敌要紧。” 一言甫毕，勤修、镇恶、功德三王已纵身过来，伸掌向谢逊攻去。他三人生怕伤了平等王，是以不用兵刃，只使拳掌，只要有一人抓住了平等王的身子，便可出力抢夺。周芷若守在谢逊身旁，每逢势急，挺剑便向平等王身上刺去。勤修王、镇恶王等不得不出掌向周芷若相攻，以免她手中利剑刺中了平等王。 那边厢张无忌又和风云三使斗在一起。他四人数次交手，各自吃过对方的苦头，谁也不敢大意。数合之后，辉月使一令打来，依照武学的道理，这一招必须打在张无忌左肩，哪知圣火令在半途古古怪怪的转了个弯，拍的一响，竟打中在他后颈。 张无忌一阵剧痛，心头却登时雪亮，大叫：“应左则后，应左则后，对了，对了！”顷刻间已然省悟，风云三使所会的，只不过是挪移乾坤第一层中的入门功夫，但圣火令上另刻得有诡异的变化用法，以致平添奇幻。他心念一转之间，小昭所说的四句口诀已全然明白，只是“天方地圆”甚么的还无法参悟，心想须得看齐圣火令上的刻字，方能通晓波斯派武功的精要。 他突然间一声清啸，双手擒拿而出，“三虚七实”，已将辉月使手中的两枚圣火令夺了过来，“无中生有”，又将流云使的两枚圣火令夺到。两人一呆之际，张无忌已将四枚圣火令揣入怀中，双手分别抓住两人后领，将两人掷出。 波斯群胡呐喊叫嚷声中，妙风使纵身逃回己船。此时张无忌明白了对方武功的窍诀，虽然所解的仍极有限，但妙风使的武功在他眼中已全无神秘之可言，右手一探，已抓住他左脚，硬生生将他在半空中拉了回来，挟手夺下圣火令，举起他身子便往镇恶王头顶砸落。三王大惊，打个手势，便即跃回。张无忌点了妙风使穴道，掷在脚边。 他这下取胜，来得突兀之至，顷刻之间便自下风转为上风，赵敏等无不惊喜，齐问原由。张无忌笑道：“若非阴差阳错，平等王脸上吃了这一家伙，那可糟糕得紧了。小昭，你快将这六根圣火令上的字译给我听，快，快！” 各人瞧这六枚圣火令时，但见非金非玉，质地坚硬无比，六令长短大小各不相同，似透明，非透明，令中隐隐似有火焰飞腾，实则是令质映光，颜色变幻。每一枚令上刻得有不少波斯文字，别说参透其中深义，便是译解一遍，也得不少时光。 但张无忌心知欲脱眼前之困，非探明波斯派武功的总源不可，向周芷若道：“周姑娘，请你以倚天剑架在平等王颈中。义父，请你以屠龙刀架在妙风使颈中，尽量拖延时刻。” 谢逊和周芷若点头答应。 小昭拿起六枚圣火令，见最短的那一枚上文字最少，又是黑黝黝的最不起眼，便将其上文字一句句的译解出来。张无忌听了一遍，却一句也不懂，苦苦思索，丝毫不明其意，不由得大急。 赵敏道：“小昭妹子，你还是先解打过平等王的那根圣火令。”这一言提醒了小昭，忙核对圣火令上的文字，见是次长的那一根，当即译解其意，这一次张无忌却懂了十之七八。待得一根解完，再解最长那一根时，张无忌只听得几句，喜道：“小昭，这六枚圣火令上的文字，越长的越浅。这一根上说的都是入门功夫。” 原来这六枚圣火令乃当年波斯“山中老人”霍山所铸，刻着他毕生武功精要。六枚圣火令和明教同时传入中土，向为中土明教教主的令符，年深日久之后，中土明教已无人识得波斯文字。数十年前，圣火令为丐帮中人夺去，辗转为波斯商贾所得，复又流入波斯明教。波斯总教钻研其上文字，数十年间，教中职份较高之辈人人武功陡进。只是其上所记武功博大精深，便是修为最高的大圣宝树王，也只学得三四成而已。 至于乾坤大挪移心法，本是波斯明教的护教神功，但这门奇妙的武功却不是常人所能修习。波斯明教的教主规定又须由处女
Suddenly there was a rattling sound, Yin Li's teeth clashed, and he couldn't help shivering.Zhang Wuji touched her forehead, but it was still very hot. It was obvious that the cold and heat were attacking, and he was very ill. He said, "Father, the child also wants to go back to Spirit Snake Island. Miss Yin's injury is not serious, so we must seek medical treatment. Let's do our best But for the sake of it, Madam Han cannot be saved, but Miss Yin should be saved." Xie Xun said: "That's right. This Miss Yin has such deep affection for you, how can you not save her? Miss Zhou, Miss Zhao, what do you two think? ?” Zhao Min said: "Miss Yin's injury is important, but mine is not. How can we not go back to Spirit Snake Island?" Zhou Zhiruo said indifferently: "If the old man says go back, he will go back." Zhang Wuji said: "We have to wait until the fog clears up, and when we see the stars, we can tell the direction. Yifu, that Liuyun envoy can turn two hollow somersaults in a row, but he can hurt me with the holy fire order, why is that?" The two of them immediately Studying the number of families of the three Persian envoys' martial arts, Zhao Min has learned a lot, and occasionally consults what he has seen, but after talking for a long time, he still can't guess the gist of the three's joint kung fu. The fog on the sea will not dissipate until the sun comes out.Zhang Wuji said: "We came from the north to the southeast, now we should row to the northwest." He, Xie Xun, Zhou Zhiruo and Xiao Zhao took turns rowing.Steering a boat on the sea, surfing the waves and breaking the waves is not an easy task. Fortunately, although Zhang Wuji and Xie Xun have deep internal strength, Zhou Zhiruo and Xiao Zhao also have considerable cultivation skills. Pulling the oars and rowing the boat should only be considered as a practice of martial arts. For several days in a row, a lone boat rowed northwest non-stop. In the past few days, Xie Xun frowned, thinking hard about the strange martial arts of the three Persian envoys, he didn't say anything except asking Zhang Wuji a few words.On the evening of the sixth day, Xie Xun suddenly questioned Zhou Zhiruo carefully about the Emei Kungfu he had learned, and Zhou Zhiruo answered truthfully.The two asked and answered questions until late at night.Xie Xun looked very disappointed, and said: "The three martial arts schools of Shaolin, Wudang, and Emei are all related to the Nine Suns Scripture, and like what Wuji learned, they all tend to be masculine. If Daoist Zhang Sanfeng is here, with him Masculine and feminine all-encompassing extensive martial arts and Wuji teamed up, then the combination of yin and yang can defeat the three Persian envoys. But the far water cannot save the near fire, if Mrs. Han falls into the hands of the three Persian envoys, then what to do ?” Zhou Zhiruo suddenly asked: "Old man, I heard that in the martial arts a hundred years ago, some masters were proficient in the Nine Yin Manual, is there such a thing?" Zhang Wuji once heard the name of the "Nine Yin Manual" mentioned by his grand master on Wudang Mountain. He knew that Guo Jing, the father of the female hero Guo Xiang, the founder of the Emei School, and Yang Guo, the hero of the carving, all knew the martial arts in the Nine Yin Manual. But the kung fu in the scriptures was too difficult, even though Guo Xiang was Guo Jing's own daughter, she couldn't learn it. Hearing Zhou Zhiruo's question, she thought to herself: "Could it be that she, the founder of the Emei School, also passed down some 'Nine Yins' Is it the kung fu in the scriptures?" Xie Xun said: "That's what old people say, but no one knows whether it's true or not. I heard the elders say it's amazing. If there is someone who has learned this martial art today and join forces with Wuji to fight the enemy, the three envoys of Persia will naturally respond. Get rid of it." Zhou Zhiruo let out a "huh" and stopped asking. Zhao Min asked: "Miss Zhou, is there anyone in your Emei sect who knows this martial art?" Zhou Zhiruo said: "If anyone in the Emei sect possesses this miraculous skill, the former master would not have died in Wan'an Temple." The root cause was Zhao Min, Zhou Zhiruo hated her so much that she was in the same boat day and night, but never spoke to her.At this moment, Zhao Min confronted her directly, so she contradicted her.She has a gentle personality, and speaking like this is the most unkind language she has ever spoken to people in her life.Zhao Min was not angry, but just smiled. Zhang Wuji couldn't stop pulling his gun, suddenly looked into the distance and shouted: "Look, look! There is a fire over there." Everyone followed his gaze, only to see a slight flicker of fire in the northwest corner where the sea meets the sky.Although Xie Xun couldn't see it, he was as surprised as everyone else in his heart, picked up the wooden oar, and rowed vigorously. The flames were not far away, but they were actually on the sea, tens of miles away.The two rowed for a long time before they gradually approached.Zhang Wuji saw that the mountains where the flames came from stood up, which was Spirit Snake Island, and said, "We're back!" Xie Xun suddenly called out "Ah Yo", and said, "Why is Spirit Snake Island so brightly lit? Are they going to burn Mrs. Han?" There was only a thud, and Xiao Zhao fell on the bow of the boat.Zhang Wuji was taken aback, and went to help her up, but saw that her eyes were closed tightly, she had fainted, so he pinched her acupoints to wake her up, and asked, "Xiao Zhao, what's the matter with you?" Xiao Zhao's eyes widened With tears in his eyes, he said: "I heard that people are going to be burned alive, I... I... I'm scared." Zhang Wuji comforted: "This is Mr. Xie's guess, it may not be true. Even if Mrs. Han falls into their hands , let’s go there immediately, and most likely we can save him in time.” Xiao Zhao grabbed his hand and begged, “My lord, I beg you, you must save Mrs. Han’s life.” Zhang Wuji said: “All of us Do your best." As he spoke, he returned to the stern, picked up the wooden oar, pumped up his inner strength, and rowed faster than before.Xiao Zhao grabbed the wooden oar, although his hands trembled, he paddled vigorously. Zhao Min suddenly said: "Mr. Zhang, there are two things I have been thinking about for a long time, but I still can't understand them. I need your advice." Hearing that she suddenly became polite, Zhang Wuji asked in surprise, "What's the matter?" Outside Luliu Village, I sent people to attack Grandfather Ling and Yang Zuo, and it was Miss Xiao Zhao who sent people to resist. It is true that a strong general has no weak soldiers, and a little maid under the leader of Mingjiao has such abilities , It's really strange..." Xie Xun interjected and asked, "What Mingjiao leader?" Zhao Min laughed and said: "Old man, let me tell you at this time, your righteous son is the dignified leader of Mingjiao, but you are his subordinate." Xie Xun was half-believing and speechless for a while.Zhao Min briefly talked about how Zhang Wuji became the leader, but she didn't know many details.Zhang Wuji was pressed by Xie Xun's questions, and he couldn't hide any more, so he had to tell how the six major factions besieged Guangmingding, how he obtained the Great Teleportation of the Universe in the secret way, and so on. Xie Xun was overjoyed, he stood up, bowed down in the cabin, and said: "My subordinate, Golden Retriever Lion King Xie Xun, see the leader." Zhang Wuji hurriedly knelt down to return the salute, and said, "Father-father doesn't need to be too polite. Master Yang passed his order, and father-in-law is asked to take the position of leader temporarily. The child is suffering from heavy responsibilities. Fortunately, father-in-law came back safe and sound. It is really a blessing for our sect. After arriving in Middle-earth, the father-in-law was supposed to take over the position of leader." Xie Xun said sadly: "Although your father-in-law has returned, his eyes are already blind, and the word 'no harm' cannot be said. How can the leader be a blind person? Miss Zhao, what two things do you not understand?" Zhao Mindao: "I would like to ask Miss Xiaozhao, who taught those strange gossip, yin-yang and five-element techniques? How did you acquire such extraordinary abilities at such a young age?" Xiao Zhao said: "This is my family's martial arts, it's not worth the princess's smile." Zhao Min asked again: "Who is your father? If my daughter is so good, her parents must be famous masters all over the world." Xiao Zhao said: "My father buried his name Incognito, He Laojun took the initiative to ask? Do you want to cut off some of my fingers and force me to ask about my martial arts?" At a young age, she refused to give in to Zhao Min verbally. Provoke Zhou Zhiruo's heart of hatred against the enemy. 赵敏笑了笑，转头向张无忌道：“张公子，那晚咱们在大都小酒店中第二次叙会，苦头陀范遥前来向我作别，他见到小昭姑娘之时，说了两句甚么话？”张无忌早将这件事忘了，听她提起，想了一会，才道：“苦大师好像是说，小昭的相貌很像一个他相识之人。”赵敏道：“不错。你猜苦大师说小昭姑娘像谁？”张无忌道：“我怎猜得到？”
说话之间，小船离灵蛇岛更加近了，只见岛西一排排的停了大船，每张白帆上都绘了个大大的红花火焰，帆上都悬挂黑色飘带。 张无忌皱眉道：“波斯总教劳师动众，派来的人可不少啊。”赵敏道：“咱们划到岛后，拣个隐僻的所在登陆，别让他们发见了。”张无忌点头道：“是！” 刚划出三四丈，突然间大船上号角呜呜，跟着砰砰两声，两枚炮弹打将过来，一枚落在船左，一枚落在船右，激起两条水柱，小船剧晃，几乎便要翻转。大船上有人叫道：“来船快划过来，如若不听将令，立时轰沉。” 张无忌暗暗叫苦，心知适才这两炮敌船志在示威，故意打在小船两侧，现下相距如此之近，敌人瞄准极易，当真一炮轰在船中，六人无一得免，只得划动小船，慢慢靠过去。 三艘敌船的炮口缓缓转动，对准小船。待小船靠近，大船上放下绳梯。张无忌道：“咱们上去，相机夺船。”谢逊摸到绳梯，第一个爬上大船。周芷若一言不发，俯身抱起殷离，从绳梯攀上船去。跟着便是小昭。张无忌抱了赵敏，最后一个攀上。只见船上一干人个个黄发碧眼，身材高大，均是波斯胡人，那流云使等三使却不在其内。 一个会说中国话的波斯人问道：“你们是谁？到这里来干甚么？”赵敏道：“我们飘洋遇险，座船沉没，多蒙相救。”那波斯人将信将疑，转头向坐在甲板正中椅上的首领说了几句波斯话。那首领向手下叽哩咕噜的吩咐几句。 小昭突然纵身而起，发掌便向那首领击去。那首领一惊，闪身避过，抓起坐椅，便向小昭砸来。张无忌没料到小昭这么快便即动手，身形一侧，欺上三尺，伸指将那首领点倒，船上数十名波斯人登时大乱，纷纷抽出兵刃，围了上来。这些人虽然均有武功，但与风云三使相去可就极远。张无忌右手扶着殷离，左手东点一指，西拍一掌。谢逊使开屠龙刀，周芷若挥动长剑，再加上小昭身形灵动，片刻之间，已将船上数十名波斯人料理了。十余人被砍翻在甲板之上，七八人堕入海中，余下尽数被点中了穴道。 霎时之间，海旁呼喊声、号角声乱成一片。其余波斯船只靠了过来，船上人众便欲涌上相斗。张无忌提起那波斯首领，跃上横桁，朗声叫道：“谁敢上来，我便将此人一掌劈死。”只听得各船上众人大声呼喊，张无忌虽一句也听不懂，但见无人跃上船来，想来所擒之人颇有身分，对方心存顾忌，一时不敢来攻。 张无忌跃回甲板，刚放下那个首领，蓦地里背后铮的一声响，一件兵刃砸了过来，急忙侧身相避，反脚踢出，迎面一根圣火令击到，左侧又有一根横掠而至。张无忌暗暗叫苦，心想风云三使来得好快，叫道：“大家退入船舱。”提起那个首领，往一根圣火令上迎去。 辉月使急忙收令，但收招急促，下盘露出空隙，张无忌一腿扫去，险些踢中了她小腿。流云、妙风两使自旁急攻，迫使张无忌这一腿未能踢实。拆到第九招上，妙风使左手圣火令斜击甩上，招数怪异无比，堪堪便要点中张无忌小腹。张无忌将那波斯首领的身子一沉。妙风使这一招便得古怪，张无忌这一下却也是极其巧妙，只听得拍的一声响，这一记圣火令正好打在那波斯人的左颊之上。风云三使齐声惊呼，脸色大变，同时向后跃开，交谈了几句波斯话，突然躬身向张无忌手中的波斯人行礼，神色极是恭敬，跟着便即退回。 忽听得号角声此起彼落，一艘大船缓缓驶到，船头上插了十二面绣金大旗。船头上设着十二张虎皮交椅，有一张空着，其余十一张均有人乘坐。那大船驶到近处，便停住了。赵敏见空着的那张虎皮交椅排在第六。With a thought.说道：“咱们抓到的此人和大船上那十一人服色相同，看来是他们十二个人首领之一，他位居第六。”谢逊道：“十二个大首领？嗯，总教十二宝树王齐来中土，非同小可。”赵敏问道：“甚么十二宝树王？” 谢逊道：“波斯总教教主座下，共有十二位大经师，称为十二宝树王，身分地位相当于中土明教的四大护救法王。这十二宝树王第一大圣，二者智慧，三者常胜，四者掌火，五者勤修，六者平等，七者信心，八者镇恶，九者正直，十者功德，十一齐心，十二俱明。只是十二宝树王以精研教义、精运经典为主，听说并不一定武功高强。这人位列第六，那么是平等宝树王了。” 张无忌在桅杆边坐下，将平等王横放在膝盖之上，这人既在波斯总教中地位极高，自己一干人脱险求生，势非着落在他身上不可，俯首见他左颊高高肿起，幸好非致命之伤。想是妙风使一令击出，已知不对，急忙收力，加之这人也有相当内功，颇有抵御之劲。 周芷若和小昭收拾甲板上的众波斯人，将已死的尸首搬入后舱，未死的一一排齐。只见十余艘波斯大船四下围住，各船上的大炮对准了张无忌等人的座船，每一艘船船舷上都站满了波斯人，火把照耀下刀剑闪烁。密密麻麻的不知有多少人，张无忌暗暗心惊，别说各船开炮轰击，这成千成百人一涌而上，自己便有三头六臂。也是难以抵挡，纵能仗着绝顶武功脱困，但无论如何不能保护得旁人周全，殷离和赵敏身上有伤，更是危险。 只听得一名波斯人以中国话朗声说道：“金毛狮王听了，我总教十二宝树王俱在此间，你得罪总教之罪，诸宝树王宽于赦免。你速速将船上诸位总教教友献出，自行开船去罢。”谢逊笑道：“谢某又不是三岁小儿，我们一放俘虏，你们船上的大炮还不轰将过来吗？”那人怒道：“你就算不放，我们的大炮便不能轰吗？” 谢逊沉吟道：“我有三个条件，贵方答应了，我们便恭送这里的总教教友上岸。”那人道：“甚么条件？”谢逊道：“第一，此后总教和中土明教相亲相敬，互不干扰。”那人道：“嗯，第二呢？”谢逊道：“你们放黛绮丝过船，免了她的失贞之罪，此后不再追究。”那人怒道：“此事万万不可。黛绮丝犯了总教大规，当遭焚身之刑，跟你们中土明教有甚么相干？第三件是甚么？”谢逊道：“你第二件事也不能答应，何况再说第三件？”那人道：“好！这第二事就算允了，第三件不妨说来听听。” 谢逊道：“这第三件吗？那可易办之至。你们派一艘小船，跟在我们的座船之后。驶出五十里后，我们见你们不派大船追来，便将俘虏放入小船，任由你们携走。” 那人大怒，喝道：“胡说九道！胡说九道！” 谢逊等都是一怔，不知他说些甚么，赵敏笑道：“此人学说中国话，可学得稀松平常。他以为胡说八道多一道，那便更加荒唐了。”谢逊和张无忌一想不错，虽然眼前局势紧迫，却也忍不住哈哈大笑起来。 这位在“胡说八道”上加了一道的人物，乃是诸宝树王中位居末座的俱明宝树王。他听得谢逊等嘻笑，更是恼怒，一声唿哨，和位列第十一的齐心宝树王纵身跃上船来。 张无忌上前去，左掌往齐心王胸口推去。齐心王竟不挡架，伸左手往他头顶抓下。张无忌眼看自己这一掌要先打到他身上，哪知俱明王从斜刺里双掌推到，接过了他这一掌，齐心王的手指却直抓下来。张无忌向前急冲一步，方得避过，才知他二人攻守联手，便如是个四手四腿之人一般。三人迅如奔雷闪电般拆了七八招。 张无忌心下暗惊，这二人比之风云三使稍有不及，但武功仍是十分怪异，明明和乾坤大挪移的心法极为相似，可是一到使用出来，总是大为变形，全然无法捉摸，然以招数凌厉巧妙而言，却又远不及乾坤大挪移。似乎这二人都是疯子，偶尔学到了一些挪移乾坤的武功，学得既不到家，又是神智昏乱，胡踢瞎打，常人反倒不易抵御。但两人联守之紧密，和风云三使如出一辙。张无忌勉力抵御，只战了个平手，预计再拆二三十招，方可占到上风。 便在此时，风云三使齐声呼啸，又攻上船来，同时趋向平等王，只盼将他抢回，以折免失手击了他一令之罪。谢逊举起平等王左右挥舞，划成一个个极大的圈子。风云三使这次如何敢贸然欺前？左趋右闪，想找寻空隙攻上。 蓦地里俱明王闷哼一声，中腿摔倒。张无忌俯身待要擒拿，流云使和辉月使双令齐到，妙风使已抱起俱明王跃回己船。这时齐心王和云月二使联手，配合已不如风云三使严谨，接战数合，眼见难以取胜，三人几声唿哨，便即跃回。 张无忌定了定神，说道：“这一干人似乎学过挪移乾坤之术，偏又学得不像，当真难以对付。”谢逊道：“本教的乾坤大挪移心法本是源于波斯。但数百年前传入中土之后，波斯本国反而失传，他们所留存的，据黛绮丝说只是些不三不四的皮毛，因此才派她到光明顶来，想偷回心法。”张无忌道：“他们武功的根基甚是肤浅，果然只是些皮毛，但运用之际却又十分巧妙。显然中间另有一个重大的关键所在，我没揣摩得透。嗯，那挪移乾坤的第七层功夫之中，有一些我没练成，难道便是为此么？”说着坐着甲板之上，抱头苦思。谢逊等均不出声，生怕扰乱他的思路。 忽然间小昭“啊哟”一声惊呼，张无忌抬起头来，只见风云三使押着一人，走到了十一宝树王之前。那人佝偻着身子，手撑拐杖，正是金花婆婆。坐在第二张椅中的智慧宝树王向她喝问数语，金花婆婆侧着头，大声道：“你说甚么？我不懂。”智慧王冷笑一声，站起身来，左手一探，已揭下了金花婆婆顶上满头白发，露出乌丝如云。金花婆婆头一侧，向左避让，智慧王右手倏出，竟在她脸上揭下了一层面皮下来。 张无忌等看得清楚，智慧王所揭下的乃是一张人皮面具，刹那之间，金花婆婆变成了一个肤如凝脂、杏眼桃腮的美艳妇人，容光照人，端丽难言。 黛绮丝被他揭穿了本来面目，索性将拐杖一抛，只是冷笑。智慧王说了几句话，她便以波斯话对答。二人一问一答，但见十一位宝树王的神色越来越是严重。 赵敏忽问：“小昭姑娘，他们说些甚么？”小昭流泪道：“你很聪明，你甚么都知道，却干么事先不阻止谢老爷子别说？”赵敏奇道：“阻止他别说甚么？” 小昭道：“他们本来不知金花婆婆是谁，后来知道她是紫衫龙王了，但决计想不到紫衫龙王便是圣女黛绮丝。婆婆一番苦心，只盼能将他们骗倒。谢老爷子所提的第二个条款，却要他们释放圣女黛绮丝，虽是好心，可就瞒不过智慧宝树王了。谢老爷子目不见物，自不知金花婆婆装得多像，任谁也能瞒过。赵姑娘，你却瞧得清清楚楚，难道便想不到么？” 其实赵敏听了谢逊在海上所说的故事，心中先入为主，认定金花婆婆便是波斯明教的圣女黛绮丝，一时可没想到在波斯诸人眼中，她的真面目却并未揭破。她待要反唇相稽，但听小昭语音十分悲苦，隐隐已料到她和金花婆婆之间必有极不寻常的关连，不忍再出重言，只道：“小昭妹子，我确是没想到。若是有意加害金花婆婆，教我不得好死。” 谢逊更是歉仄，当下一句话也不说，心中打定了主意，宁可自己性命不在，也得相救黛绮丝出险。 小昭泣道：“他们责备金花婆婆，说她既嫁人，又叛教，要……要烧死她。”张无忌道：“小昭，你别着急，一有可乘之机，我便冲过去救婆婆出来。”他叫惯了婆婆，其实此时瞧紫衫龙王的本来面目，虽已中年，但风姿嫣然，实不减于赵敏、周芷若等人，倒似是小昭的大姊姊。小昭道：“不，不！十一个宝树王，再加风云三使，你斗他们不过的，不过枉自送了性命。他们这时在商量如何夺回平等王。”
赵敏恨恨的道：“哼！这平等王便活着回去，脸上印着这几行字，丑也丑死啦。”张无忌问道：“甚么脸上印着字？”赵敏道：“那黄胡子使者的圣火令一下子打中了他左颊……啊，小昭！”突然想起一事，问道：“小昭妹子，你识波斯字么？”小昭道：“识得。”赵敏道：“你快瞧瞧，这平等王脸上印着的是甚么字。” 小昭搬起平等王上身，侧过他的头来，只见他左颊高高肿起，三行波斯文深印肉里。原来每根圣火令上都刻得有文字，妙风使误击平等王，竟将圣火令上的文字印在他的肌肉上了。只是圣火令着肉处不过两寸宽、三寸长，所印文字残缺不全。 小昭跟随张无忌进入光明顶秘道，曾将乾坤大挪移心法背诵几遍，虽然未得张无忌吩咐，自己未曾习练，但这武功的法门却记得极熟，其时张无忌在秘道中练至第七层心法时遇有疑难，跳过费解之处不练，小昭曾一一记诵，这时看了平等王脸上的文字，不禁脱口而呼：“那也是乾坤大挪移心法！” 张无忌奇道：“你说是乾坤大挪移心法？”小昭道：“不，不是！我初时一见，以为是了，却又不是。译成中国话，意思是这样：'应左则前，须右乃后，三虚七实，无中生有'……甚么'天方地圆……'下面的看不到了。” 这几句寥寥十余字的言语，张无忌乍然听闻，犹如满天乌云之中，骤然间见到电光闪了几闪，虽然电光过后，四下里仍是一团漆黑，但这几下电闪，已让他在五里浓雾之中看到了出路，口中喃喃念道：“应左则前，须右乃后……”竭力想将这几句口诀和所习乾坤大挪移的武功配合起来，隐隐约约的似乎想到了，但似是而非，终究不对。 忽听得小昭叫道：“公子，留神！他们已传下号令：风云三使要来向你进攻，勤修王、镇恶王、功德王三王来抢平等王。” 谢逊当即将平等王身子横举在胸口，把屠龙刀抛给张无忌，说道：“你用刀猛砍便是。”赵敏也将倚天剑交给了周芷若，此刻同舟共济，并肩迎敌要紧。 张无忌接过屠龙刀，心不在焉的往腰间一插，口中仍在念诵：“三虚七实，无中生有……”赵敏急道：“小呆子，这当儿可不是参详武功的时候，快预备迎敌要紧。” 一言甫毕，勤修、镇恶、功德三王已纵身过来，伸掌向谢逊攻去。他三人生怕伤了平等王，是以不用兵刃，只使拳掌，只要有一人抓住了平等王的身子，便可出力抢夺。周芷若守在谢逊身旁，每逢势急，挺剑便向平等王身上刺去。勤修王、镇恶王等不得不出掌向周芷若相攻，以免她手中利剑刺中了平等王。 那边厢张无忌又和风云三使斗在一起。他四人数次交手，各自吃过对方的苦头，谁也不敢大意。数合之后，辉月使一令打来，依照武学的道理，这一招必须打在张无忌左肩，哪知圣火令在半途古古怪怪的转了个弯，拍的一响，竟打中在他后颈。 张无忌一阵剧痛，心头却登时雪亮，大叫：“应左则后，应左则后，对了，对了！”顷刻间已然省悟，风云三使所会的，只不过是挪移乾坤第一层中的入门功夫，但圣火令上另刻得有诡异的变化用法，以致平添奇幻。他心念一转之间，小昭所说的四句口诀已全然明白，只是“天方地圆”甚么的还无法参悟，心想须得看齐圣火令上的刻字，方能通晓波斯派武功的精要。 他突然间一声清啸，双手擒拿而出，“三虚七实”，已将辉月使手中的两枚圣火令夺了过来，“无中生有”，又将流云使的两枚圣火令夺到。两人一呆之际，张无忌已将四枚圣火令揣入怀中，双手分别抓住两人后领，将两人掷出。 波斯群胡呐喊叫嚷声中，妙风使纵身逃回己船。此时张无忌明白了对方武功的窍诀，虽然所解的仍极有限，但妙风使的武功在他眼中已全无神秘之可言，右手一探，已抓住他左脚，硬生生将他在半空中拉了回来，挟手夺下圣火令，举起他身子便往镇恶王头顶砸落。三王大惊，打个手势，便即跃回。张无忌点了妙风使穴道，掷在脚边。 他这下取胜，来得突兀之至，顷刻之间便自下风转为上风，赵敏等无不惊喜，齐问原由。张无忌笑道：“若非阴差阳错，平等王脸上吃了这一家伙，那可糟糕得紧了。小昭，你快将这六根圣火令上的字译给我听，快，快！” 各人瞧这六枚圣火令时，但见非金非玉，质地坚硬无比，六令长短大小各不相同，似透明，非透明，令中隐隐似有火焰飞腾，实则是令质映光，颜色变幻。每一枚令上刻得有不少波斯文字，别说参透其中深义，便是译解一遍，也得不少时光。 但张无忌心知欲脱眼前之困，非探明波斯派武功的总源不可，向周芷若道：“周姑娘，请你以倚天剑架在平等王颈中。义父，请你以屠龙刀架在妙风使颈中，尽量拖延时刻。” 谢逊和周芷若点头答应。 小昭拿起六枚圣火令，见最短的那一枚上文字最少，又是黑黝黝的最不起眼，便将其上文字一句句的译解出来。张无忌听了一遍，却一句也不懂，苦苦思索，丝毫不明其意，不由得大急。 赵敏道：“小昭妹子，你还是先解打过平等王的那根圣火令。”这一言提醒了小昭，忙核对圣火令上的文字，见是次长的那一根，当即译解其意，这一次张无忌却懂了十之七八。待得一根解完，再解最长那一根时，张无忌只听得几句，喜道：“小昭，这六枚圣火令上的文字，越长的越浅。这一根上说的都是入门功夫。” 原来这六枚圣火令乃当年波斯“山中老人”霍山所铸，刻着他毕生武功精要。六枚圣火令和明教同时传入中土，向为中土明教教主的令符，年深日久之后，中土明教已无人识得波斯文字。数十年前，圣火令为丐帮中人夺去，辗转为波斯商贾所得，复又流入波斯明教。波斯总教钻研其上文字，数十年间，教中职份较高之辈人人武功陡进。只是其上所记武功博大精深，便是修为最高的大圣宝树王，也只学得三四成而已。 至于乾坤大挪移心法，本是波斯明教的护教神功，但这门奇妙的武功却不是常人所能修习。波斯明教的教主规定又须由处女
