Chapter 6 The fifth chapter micro-step pattern life
As soon as the sky dawned, it solved the problem for her, and she couldn't escape anyway, "It doesn't matter if this heartbroken man comes or doesn't come, I'll wait here to die." Just as she was thinking of the miserable place, she suddenly heard a slap , an object fell from the air tens of feet away and fell into the grass.Mu Wanqing thought to herself: "What is that?" Immediately, she lay down, heard no more noise from the grass, and crept over quietly to see what happened.
Climbing to the edge of the grass, pushing aside the long grass and looking forward, the hairs all over my body stood on end.I saw the bodies of six babies lying in the grass, some were lying on their backs, some were lying on their sides, and the fat boy that Ye Erniang was holding was also inside. Erniang, she really wants to kill a baby every day. But she doesn't know why? She has killed six babies in the six days on the peak." Seeing that the six dead babies have no wounds or blood stains on their bodies, I don't know who the wicked woman Ye Erniang is. What method was used to kill them, only one of the dead babies was dressed in bright clothes, the other five were wearing coarse farm clothes, which must have been stolen from the farmers in Wuliang Mountain.Mu Wanqing went out with her teacher this time and killed a lot of people, but all of them were evil-minded thieves, this kind of mutilation of babies for no reason, she saw it with her own eyes, and she couldn't help trembling all over.
Suddenly, a blue shadow flickered in front of my eyes, and a figure galloped down the mountain like a bird, one after the other, like a ghost, it was Ye Erniang, who "does no evil".Seeing her running so fast, Mu Wanqing was far behind even her master, she was suddenly overwhelmed with emotions and worries, her legs softened and she fell to the ground.
She stayed there for a while, then placed the six corpses of children side by side, covered them with some stones and sand.Suddenly, she felt a slight chill coming from her back, and she hurried forward with her left foot.Hearing a burst of sharp and rough laughter, one person said: "Little girl, your husband will leave you behind, why don't you just follow me."
He followed the sound, and his claws were about to reach Mu Wanqing's shoulders, he slapped him diagonally, and pushed his hand away, but it was the South Sea Crocodile God.He roared angrily, and shouted: "Fourth brother, I'm a member of the Nanhai sect, and I will never allow you to bully me." Yun Zhonghe went up and down a few times, and had already hid more than ten feet away, and said with a smile: "Your apprentice can't be accepted, this girl is not A member of the Nanhai sect." Mu Wanqing saw that this man was extremely tall, but extremely thin, like a bamboo pole, and his face was scary.
The South Sea Crocodile God shouted: "How do you know that my apprentice won't come? You killed him, didn't you? Yes, you must have seen my apprentice's talent is so good that you captured him and wanted to take him as a slave. You spoiled my big business, so I'll kill you first." This man was really arrogant to the extreme, and he didn't ask Yun Zhonghe if he really did something secretly, so he rushed towards him.
Yun Zhonghe shouted: "Your apprentice is square or round, pointed or flat, I've never seen it before, how can you say I put it away?" Speaking of extreme swiftness, he even dodged the South Sea Crocodile God twice like lightning pounce.The South Sea Crocodile God scolded: "Fart! Who will believe your words? You must have lost the fight, and the grievances were directed at my apprentice." Yun Zhonghe said: "Is your apprentice male or female?" Nanhai Crocodile God said: "Of course it's a man, why should I accept female apprentices?" Yun Zhonghe said: "Ah! I, Yun Zhonghe, only grab women and never want men, don't you know?"
The God Crocodile of the South China Sea was already in the air, so it made sense to hear what he said. He threw a "jacket pendant" and fell down. He stepped on a rock with his right foot and shouted: "Then where is my disciple? Why did you come here?" Isn't it time to come to apprentice?" Yun Zhonghe smiled and said: "Hey, can I take care of your Nanhai sect's affairs?" Nanhai Crocodile God waited for Duan Yu, already extremely anxious, with nowhere to vent his anger, he shouted: "How dare you laugh at me?"
Mu Wanqing thought to herself: "It will be of great benefit if I can provoke these two villains to fight and lose both." Immediately she said loudly: "That's right, your apprentice must have been killed by the crane in the cloud, otherwise he would have died on that high cliff." Above, how can I get down? This Yun Zhonghe is so good at lightness kung fu, he must have jumped to the cliff, took your apprentice to a secluded place and killed him, lest a powerful figure be found in the Nanhai faction, otherwise why would he even find the corpse? not?"
God Crocodile of the South Sea patted his forehead with his hand, and said to Yun Zhonghe: "Look, my apprentice's daughter-in-law also said the same thing, so why would you still be wronged?"
Mu Wanqing said: "My husband said that he is very lucky to be able to worship such a great master as you. He must practice hard and make the name of the South Sea Crocodile even more famous in the world. Let the "full of evil" and "do no evil" all look at you very envious. How would you know that Yun Zhonghe became malicious and killed your good apprentice. From now on, you will never find such a People like you are here to be apprentices!" She said, and the South Sea Crocodile slapped his forehead.Mu Wanqing continued: "The back of my husband's skull looks exactly like yours, and his talent is exactly as smart as yours. There is no other perfect South Sea School successor like this in the world. This Yunzhonghe is just like you. Embarrassing, why don't you avenge your good apprentice?"
God Crocodile of the South China Sea heard this, his eyes became fierce, and with a whoosh, he jumped towards the crane in the cloud.Yun Zhonghe knew that he was provoked by Mu Wanqing, but he couldn't explain it for a moment, knowing that his martial arts were inferior to him, so when he saw him pounce on him, he ran away.The South Sea Crocodile's feet were a little bit on the ground, and he rushed over again.
Mu Wanqing shouted: "He ran away, that's a guilty conscience. If he didn't kill your apprentice, why did you run away?" The South Sea Crocodile God roared: "Yes, yes! That makes sense! Pay back my disciple's life !" The two chased and fled, and in a blink of an eye they circled behind the mountain.Mu Wanqing was secretly happy, for a moment, she could only hear the roar of the South Sea Crocodile God approaching from a distance, and the two chased from behind the mountain.
Yun Zhonghe's lightness kung fu is much better than that of South Sea Crocodile God, his slender body like a bamboo pole sways, swaying to the east and west, South Sea Crocodile God is always far behind him.The two of them just passed Mu Wanqing's eyes, and they turned to the back of the mountain in an instant.When the second chase came, Yun Zhonghe suddenly stretched his body, floated in front of Mu Wanqing, and stretched out his hand to grab her shoulder.Mu Wanqing was taken aback, swung her right hand sharply, and with a chirping sound, a poisonous arrow shot towards him.Yun Zhonghe moved half a foot to the left, avoiding the poisonous arrow, but somehow his figure turned, his long arm caught Mu Wanqing's face.Mu Wanqing dodges in a hurry, and finally slows down a step, his face suddenly turns cold, and he has already grasped the mask in his hand.
Seeing her beautiful face, Yun Zhonghe couldn't help being stunned, and said with a lewd smile: "Wonderful, this little lady is so pretty. It's just not coquettish enough, she's not perfect yet..." While speaking, the God of Crocodile of the South Sea had already caught up, and said With a palm, he slapped him on the back of the heart.Yun Zhonghe countered with luck with his right palm, there was a loud bang, the two palms collided, Mu Wanqing felt suffocated for a while, and couldn't breathe, within a radius of more than ten feet, dust and sand were flying up.With the power of the South Sea Crocodile God's palm, Yun Zhonghe moved forward more than two feet.South Sea Crocodile God roared: "Eat three more palms from me." Yun Zhonghe smiled and said: "If you can't catch up with me, I can't beat you either. Fighting for another day and night, it's nothing more than that."
The two chased for a long time, and the dust and sand around them did not stop, Mu Wanqing thought to herself: "I have to try to stop this cloud crane, otherwise the two of them will never be able to do it." When the two came around the mountain for the third time, Mu Wanqing Wanqing leaped up, with the sound of chi chi chi chi, six or seven poisonous arrows shot at Yun Zhonghe, shouting loudly: "Give back my husband's life." Yun Zhonghe heard the sound of short arrows piercing the sky, Knowing how powerful it is, jumping up and down, dodging again and again.Mu Wanqing straightened out her long sword, and stabbed at him with two swords.Yun Zhonghe knew what she was thinking, so he didn't resist the enemy, so he floated to dodge.But with such a resistance, the South Sea Crocodile God's palms had slapped left and right, and the wind of his palms encircled his whole body.
Yun Zhonghe grinned and said, "Third brother, I let you in several times just to avoid hurting the peace of our four villains. Could it be that I'm really afraid of you?" A pair of steel grips. The pair of steel grips are three feet long. Each grip has a human hand. The fingers are spread out, and the fingers emit a blue flash. The left grip is right, and the right grip is left, sealing the front of the body. A tendency to only defend but not attack.
South Sea Crocodile God said happily: "Wonderful, I haven't seen you in seven years, you have trained a strange weapon, look at me!" He untied his burden on his back, took two weapons and came out.
Mu Wanqing knew that if she joined the battle group, it would be futile, so she immediately backed away a few steps.Alligator God of the South China Sea is holding a pair of strange-shaped scissors with a short handle and a long mouth in his right hand. The scissors are full of serrations, just like the mouth of a crocodile.
Yun Zhonghe glanced sideways at these two strange weapons, then stretched out his steel claw with his right hand, and suddenly grabbed the South Sea Crocodile God's face.South Sea Crocodile God raised the crocodile tail whip in his left hand, and with a slap, he swung the steel claw away.Yun Zhonghe shot extremely fast, the steel claw in his right hand has not been retracted, but the steel claw in his left hand has already been stretched out.There was only a clicking sound, and the crocodile's mouth scissors stretched out, grabbed his steel claws and twisted.The steel claw was made of pure steel, but the notch of the crocodile's snout was made of unknown material, and it actually cut off two of the five fingers of the steel claw.At last Yun Zhonghe withdrew his hand quickly and kept the other three fingers on the steel grip, but in the grasping method he practiced, each of the ten fingers is effective, if two fingers are missing, the power will immediately weaken, and he is very depressed.Amidst the wild laughter of the South Sea Crocodile God, the crocodile tail whip rushed up.
All of a sudden, a blue shadow came lightly between the two of them, and it was Ye Erniang who had arrived.She swept her left palm horizontally, stuck it on the crocodile tail whip, and pushed it obliquely, the Yunzhonghe had taken the opportunity to leap away.Erniang Ye said: "Third and fourth, what are you doing?" Seeing Mu Wanqing's face in a blink of an eye, her expression changed immediately.
Mu Wanqing saw that she was holding another baby boy in her arms, about three or four years old, dressed in a brocade hat, with red lips and white face, very cute, only then did she realize that she had just come down the mountain to look for the baby.Seeing the strange light in her eyes, Mu Wanqing hurriedly turned her head and didn't dare to look at her, only to hear the baby shout loudly: "Dad! Dad! Shan Shan wants Dad." Ye Erniang said softly: "Shan Shan Be good, dad will be here later." Mu Wanqing thought of the horrible situation of the six child corpses in the grass, and heard her kind words of consolation, and immediately shivered.
Yun Zhonghe said with a smile: "Second sister, the crocodile snips scissors and crocodile tail whip newly practiced by the third child are amazing. I played with him a few times just now, and it was really hard to resist. What kind of kung fu have you practiced in the past seven years?" Can you defeat the two formidable guys of the third child? I'm afraid you can't do it either." He didn't mention that the God of Crocodile of the South China Sea wronged him for killing his disciple, but with a few light words, he wanted to attract Erniang Ye and Nanhai God Crocodile started.
When Ye Erniang went up to the peak, she had already seen that the two of them were really fighting for their lives, and they were definitely not practicing martial arts. She smiled lightly and said: "I have worked hard on my internal skills for the past seven years, and I have become unfamiliar with weapons, fists and feet. I am definitely not an old man. Three and your opponent."
Suddenly I heard a person shouting in a long voice from the mountainside: "Mrs. Wu, why did you take my son away? Give it back to me quickly!" As soon as the voice stopped, the person had rushed to the top of the peak, and his movements were very agile.This man was about forty years old, wearing a bronze satin robe and holding a long sword.
God of Crocodile of the South Sea shouted: "Who are you? You come here to yell. Did you steal my apprentice?" Ye Erniang laughed and said: "This teacher is the master of the 'Infinite Sword' Dongzong. Mr. Zuo Zimu, the disciple. His swordsmanship is nothing but his son is quite plump and cute."
Mu Wanqing came to a sudden realization: "It turns out that Ye Erniang could no longer find her child in Wuliang Mountain, and she kidnapped the child of the master of Wuliangjian."
Erniang Ye said: "Mr. Zuo, your son was born so interesting. I'll play with him and give it back to you tomorrow. Don't worry." She kissed Shanshan's cheek and gently stroked his hair, looking So much love and pity.When Zuo Shanshan saw his father, he called out loudly: "Daddy, Daddy!" Zuo Zimu stretched out his left hand, walked a few steps closer, and said, "Your son is very naughty, there is no fun in it, please return it immediately, I am very grateful. " When he saw his son, he immediately spoke politely. He was afraid that the woman would crush his son to death immediately if she exerted all her strength.
The Crocodile God of the South China Sea laughed and said, "This 'do all evil' Ye Sanniang, even if the emperor's crown prince and princess were in her hands, she would definitely not return it."
Zuo Zimu trembled, and said, "You...you are Ye Sanniang? Then Ye Erniang... who is Ye Erniang?" He once heard that there was a second-ranked one among the "Four Great Evil Men". The woman Ye Erniang would snatch a baby to play with every morning, and she would kill it in the evening. I'm afraid that "Ye Sanniang" and Ye Erniang are sisters and sisters with average personalities, that would be terrible up.
Ye Erniang smiled coquettishly, and said: "Don't listen to his nonsense, I am Ye Erniang, what kind of Ye Sanniang is there in the world?"
Zuo Zimu's face was completely pale in an instant.As soon as he realized that the child had been captured, he chased after him with all his strength. On the way, he realized that her martial arts were far superior to his own. At first, he thought that this woman was a stranger and had no grudges against him. It might not be difficult for his son. Seeing that she was actually Ye Erniang who "does no evil", she wanted to curse and plead words stuffed in her throat, but she couldn't speak them out.
Ye Erniang said: "Look at this child's smooth skin and how strong he is! His blood is ruddy and crystal clear. After all, he is the child of a famous martial arts master, and he is quite different from ordinary peasant children." As he spoke, he picked up the The child's palms were facing the sun, inspecting his blood color, and praised him, just like ordinary people buying chickens, ducks, fish and sheep in the vegetable market, picking the best and fat.
Zuo Zimu saw her salivating, as if she was going to eat his son in a blink of an eye, how could he not burst out with fright and anger?Knowing that she was invincible, she still had to do her best, so she used the move "White Rainbow Piercing the Sun", stabbing her throat with the tip of the sword.
Ye Erniang smiled slightly, and gently moved Shanshan's body, if Zuo Zimu's sword continued to stab, Ai'er would be stabbed first.Fortunately, his swordsmanship was superb, and his moves were not too old. He suddenly withdrew his momentum, the tip of his sword shook slightly in mid-air, and with a sword flower, he stabbed Ye Erniang's right shoulder obliquely.Ye Erniang still did not dodge, she moved Shanshan's body to block in front of her.In an instant, Zuo Zimu stabbed four swords up and down, left and right, Ye Erniang waited for work with ease, and only moved the mountain a little bit, these four sharp and fierce sword moves were only half-moved.Shanshan was so frightened that he burst into tears.
Yun Zhonghe was chased three times around the mountain by the God of Crocodile of the South Sea, and the steel claw broke off two fingers. He was so angry that he had nowhere to vent, so he jumped up suddenly, and the steel claw with his left hand quickly grabbed the top of Zuo Zimu's head.Zuo Zimu swiped his long sword upwards, using the move "Wan Hui Zheng Yan", the light of the sword trembled wildly, and firmly sealed the upper plate.With a soft sound, the two weapons collided, Zuo Zimu made a move of "pushing the boat along the current", the sword edge was about to take advantage of the momentum to push towards the enemy's throat, when suddenly Li Gang's fingers closed together and grabbed the sword edge.
Zuo Zimu was shocked, but he refused to let go of the sword, he quickly used his internal energy to grab it back, with a puff, the steel claw of Yun Zhonghe's right hand had already inserted into his shoulder.Fortunately, two of the five fingers of the steel grip had been chopped off by the God of Crocodile of the South China Sea. Zuo Zimu's injuries were slightly less severe, but blood was already gushing out, and the three steel fingers held onto his shoulder bone firmly.Yun Zhonghe stepped forward and kicked him down, these few times, the head of a famous sect had no room to parry.
South Sea Crocodile God praised: "Fourth brother, these two things are not bad, and it's not a shame."
Ye Erniang said with a smile: "Leader Zuo, have you seen our boss?" Zuo Zimu's right shoulder bone was caught by the steel finger, unable to move at all, he endured the pain and said, "Who is your boss? I haven't seen it." South Sea Crocodile God also asked: "Have you seen my apprentice?" Zuo Zimu said again: "Who is your apprentice? I have never seen it." South Sea Crocodile God said angrily: "You don't know Who is my apprentice? How can you say you haven't seen it? Put your mother's shit on! Third sister, eat his son quickly." Ye Erniang said: "Your second sister doesn't eat children. Zuo Da Head, you go, we don't want your life."
Zuo Zimu said: "That's the case. Ye... Ye Erniang, please return my son, I will find you another three or four children. Zuo will always feel great virtue." Ye Erniang said with a smile: "That's good! You can find eight children. There are four of us here, and each of us holds two, which is enough for me for eight days. Fourth, let him go."
Yun Zhonghe smiled slightly, loosened his grip, and opened his steel fingers.Zuo Zimu gritted his teeth and stood up, gave Ye Erniang a deep bow, and reached out to hug the baby.Ye Erniang laughed and said, "You are also a figure in the Jianghu, why don't you know the rules? There are not eight children to exchange, so I will return your children to you casually?"
Seeing his son in her arms, Zuo Zimu was extremely reluctant, but because of the situation, he could only nod his head and said, "I'll pick the eight fattest children for you. I hope you treat my son well." The mother ignored him, hummed a nursery rhyme in a low voice, and said: "Good grandson, your grandma loves you." Since Zuo Zimu was in front of her eyes, she refused to call the child a "baby".
Hearing this address, Zuo Zimu realized that she wanted to be his own mother, he couldn't help but laugh, and said to his son: "Shan Shan, good boy, Dad will come back to hug you soon." Shan Shan cried loudly, struggling to jump on his chest arms.Zuo Zimu glanced at his son reluctantly, pressed his left hand on the wound on his shoulder, turned his head, and walked slowly down the cliff.
Suddenly, there was a continuous sound of sharp iron whistles from behind the mountain peak.South Sea Crocodile God and Yun Zhonghe said happily at the same time: "Boss is here!" The two jumped up, ran towards the sound of the iron whistle, and disappeared behind the rock in a short while.
Ye Erniang didn't care, she still teased the child slowly, glanced sideways at Mu Wanqing, and said with a smile: "Miss Mu, your eyes are so beautiful, they are born on your beautiful face, it's even more incredible. .Leader Zuo, do me a favor and go dig out the little girl's eyes."
Zuo Zimu's son was in the hands of others, so he had to obey orders, and said: "Miss Mu, you'd better obey Ye Erniang's words, so as not to suffer more." As he spoke, he raised his sword and stabbed at Mu Wanqing.Mu Wanqing scolded: "Shameless villain!" She fought back with her sword, pointed the sword point at Zuo Zimu's left shoulder, made three moves, and turned her body obliquely. Erniang Ye shoots, trying to catch her by surprise.Zuo Zimu yelled, "Don't hurt my child."
Unexpectedly, the three arrows went off quickly, Ye Erniang flicked her sleeve with her left hand, and three short arrows were rolled down, thrown aside, she removed a small shoe on Shanshan's right foot, and threw it towards her back.Hearing the wind, Mu Wanqing turned back to block with the sword, but being seriously injured, she couldn't move the sword correctly, the shoe slid forward along the edge of the sword, and hit her right waist with a puff.Ye Erniang exerted Yin energy on the shoe, Mu Wanqing rushed to use her internal strength to resist, but she couldn't lift it up in one breath, her whole body was sore and numb, and the long sword fell to the ground with a clang, at this moment, Shanshan's second The shoe was thrown again, this time on the chest.Her eyes went dark, she couldn't hold on any longer, and she sat down.The tip of Zuo Zimu's sword had already touched her chest, and his left hand went to dig out her right eye.
Mu Wanqing called out in a low voice: "Duan Lang!" She jumped forward and went to meet the sword point, she would rather die by his sword than suffer the misery of having her eyes gouged out.
Zuo Zimu drew his sword back, and suddenly clenched his wrist, the handle of the long sword could no longer be held, he let go of his hand and flew up, the momentum brought him back two steps.The three of them were startled, and they all raised their heads to look at the long sword at the same time.I saw that the blade of the sword was wrapped by a slender rope, and at the end of the rope was an iron rod, which was held in the hands of an officer in yellow.This man was about thirty years old, his face was heroic, and he couldn't help but sneer.Ye Erniang recognized him as the person who fought with Yun Zhonghe seven days ago, his martial arts are not weak, but he is not as good as her own, so she is not afraid of him, she just wonders if his companions have also arrived, she squinted at him Go, and I saw another yellow-clothed officer standing on the left, with a pair of hatchets stuck in his waist. Ye Erniang was about to speak, when she heard a slight noise behind her, she immediately turned around, and saw a person standing on the southeast and southwest corners respectively, wearing the same color as the previous two, yellow clothes with hooded head, military officer's attire .The hand on the southeast corner is holding a pair of judge pens, and the hand on the southwest corner is holding a wrought copper eyebrow stick. The four people are divided into four corners, forming a faint encirclement. Zuo Zimu Lang said: "It turns out that the four major guards of Chu, Gu, Fu and Zhu in the palace have arrived together. I will be polite to Zuo Zimu here." He said to the four of them.The guard Zhu Danchen holding the judge's pen clasped his fists in return, but the other three ignored him. The guard who arrived first, Chu Wanli, shook the iron pole, and the long sword wrapped on the soft rope kept shaking in the air, shining under the sunlight.He sneered and said, "'Wuliangjian' is considered a famous sect in Dali. I didn't expect the head of the sect to be such a despicable person. Where is Mr. Duan? Where is he?" Mu Wanqing was already determined to die, but she was overjoyed when the savior came suddenly, and she was even more concerned when she heard him ask about Young Master Duan. Zuo Zimu said: "Duan...Young Master Duan? That's right, a few days ago, I met Young Master Duan a few times...but now I don't know...but I don't know where I went to." Mu Wanqing said: "Mr. Duan has been killed by this woman's brother." Pointing to Ye Erniang, he said: "What is that man called 'poor and vicious' Yun Zhonghe, tall and thin, like a bamboo It looks like a pole..." Chu Wanli was taken aback, and shouted: "Really? That person?" Fu Sigui, the guard holding a cooked copper stick, heard that Duan Yu had been killed, filled with grief and anger, and shouted: "Mr. Duan, I will avenge you." The copper stick fell on Ye Erniang's head. Erniang Ye dodged to dodge, and shouted: "Ah, my son, Chu Gufu, Zhu Sisi, Dali Kingdom, you died short-lived. Wait for your own mother Ye Erniang." Chu, Gu, Fu, and Zhu are not much younger than her, but she calls herself her own mother, "My son", "Short-lived darling" Call the general to get up. Fu Sigui was furious, a copper rod made a whistling wind, and instantly turned into a cloud of yellow mist, wrapping her in it.Ye Erniang held Zuo Zimu's child with both hands, and dodged between the copper rods, but the copper rods still couldn't hit her.The child screamed loudly.Zuo Zimu shouted urgently: "You two stop, you two stop!" Another guard pulled out an ax from his waist, and shouted: "'No Evil, No Evil' Ye Erniang really deserves her reputation, wait for me, Gu Ducheng, to learn the brilliant trick." The man followed the sound, and rolled to the ground. With one axe, he slashed her lower body with the right axe.Ye Erniang laughed and said: "This child is in the way, you should hack him to death first." Sending the child down, he went to meet the axe.Gu Ducheng was taken aback, and hastily retracted the axe, but Ye Erniang's leg flew out from the bottom of her skirt and hit him on the shoulder, fortunately, he had a strong body, he only staggered slightly after being hit by this leg, and was not injured, so he immediately jumped on him and hit him again. .Ye Erniang used the child as a talisman, and when Gu Ducheng and Fu Sigui handed out the weapons, they were greatly restrained. Zuo Zimu shouted urgently: "Be careful, child! This is my child, be careful, be careful! Brother Fu, you hit the stick too high. Brother Gu, don't...don't greet my child with your axe." In the midst of the confusion, a flute sound suddenly came from behind the mountain, clear and intense, and it sounded nearby in a short while. A middle-aged man in a wide robe and long sleeves turned out from behind the hillside. He had three long beards and was elegant in appearance. An iron flute is still close to his mouth and blowing.Zhu Danchen stepped forward quickly, walked to his side, and said a few words in a low voice.The man played the flute non-stop, with a leisurely tune, and walked slowly towards the three who were fighting.All of a sudden, the sound of the flute blared, causing pain in everyone's ear drums.He pressed all ten fingers on the flute hole and blew rapidly, a gust of wind flew out from the end of the iron flute and rushed towards Ye Erniang's face.Ye Erniang turned away in shock, the iron flute was pointed at her throat. These two strokes were astonishingly fast, even though Ye Erniang was quick to respond, she couldn't help but feel a little at a loss, she swayed her waist slightly in her busy schedule, her upper body abruptly moved back a foot, and threw Zuo Shanshan to the ground, stretched out her hand Catch it to the iron flute.The robed guest didn't wait for the baby to land, he swung his sleeves and rolled up the baby.As soon as Ye Erniang caught the iron flute, she felt that the flute was as hot as red charcoal, and she was startled: "Is there poison on the flute?" She hurriedly let go of the flute and jumped a few steps away.The robed guest waved his sleeves and threw Shan Shan steadily towards Zuo Zimu. Ye Erniang glanced at it and saw that the left palm of the robed man was as red as blood, and she was shocked again: "It turns out that the flute is not covered with poison, but because of his internal strength, it is so hot that the iron flute looks like it has just been taken out of the furnace." Average." Involuntarily took a few steps back, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency is very good at martial arts, I never thought that Xiao Dali would have such an expert. May I ask your name?" The robed man smiled slightly, and said: "Erniang Ye is here, it's a pleasure to meet you, it's a pleasure to meet you. Dali Kingdom should show its kindness as a landlord." Zuo Zimu embraced his son, and blurted out his surprise and surprise. And came out: "Your honor is Gao... Gao Junhou?" The robed guest smiled and didn't answer, and asked Erniang Ye: "Where is Mr. Duan? I still want to tell you." Ye Erniang sneered and said, "I don't know, even if I knew, I wouldn't say it." Suddenly she jumped up and fell towards the mountain peak.The man in broad robe said: "Wait a minute!" He flew after him, suddenly there was a flash of light in front of his eyes, and seven or eight hidden weapons were thrown like beads, hitting several vital points on his head and face.The robed guest waved his iron flute and shot down one by one.I saw her drifting and swaying, she had gone too far, and she could no longer catch up.When he looked at the hidden weapons that fell on the ground again, each one was different, and they were all gold and silverware hanging on the child's body, some were longevity cards, or small lock pieces, and he suddenly remembered: "These are all hidden weapons that were hidden by the child." All the children she killed. If this harm is not cured, how many children will die in Dali Kingdom." Chu Wanli swung the iron rod, and the long sword wrapped on the soft rope flew out, turned the hilt upside down, and flew towards Zuo Zimu.Zuo Zimu stretched out his arms to hold her, his face full of shame, speechless.Chu Wanli turned to Mu Wanqing and asked, "What happened to Mr. Duan? Was it really caused by Yun Zhonghe?" Mu Wanqing thought to herself: "These people seem to be Duan Lang's friends, so I told them the truth, so that we can go to the cliff over there and search carefully." Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard a distraught man in the middle of the mountain. Call: "Mu girl...Mu girl... are you still here? South Sea Crocodile God, here I come, you must not harm Mu girl! Let's discuss whether to worship Master or not...Mu girl, Mu girl, Are you all right?" The robed guests waited and cheered in unison: "It's the young master!" Mu Wanqing had been waiting for him for seven days and seven nights, she was exhausted physically and mentally, but at this moment she heard his voice, she was pleasantly surprised, her eyes went dark, and she passed out immediately. In a coma, someone whispered in her ears: "Mu girl, Mu girl, you, you wake up!" Gradually, she regained her senses, and felt that she was lying in someone's arms, being held on the shoulders, and wanted to jump She was about to get up, but then thought: "Duan Lang is here." My heart was sweet, but also bitter, I slowly opened my eyes, the eyes in front of me are as clear as autumn water, but who is it not Duan Yu?He said happily: "Ah, you've finally woken up." Mu Wanqing burst into tears, and slapped him hard with a backhand palm, but she was still lying in his arms, unable to struggle and jumped up for a while. Duan Yu caressed his cheek and said with a smile: "You hit people at every turn, you are really arrogant!" He asked: "Where is the South Sea Crocodile God? Isn't he waiting for me here?" Mu Wanqing said: "He has already waited for me. Seven days and seven nights for you, isn’t that enough? He’s gone.” Duan Yu immediately beamed with joy, and said, “Wonderful, wonderful! I’m just worried. If he insists on forcing me to worship him as a teacher, I don’t know what to do. All right." Mu Wanqing said: "You don't want to be his apprentice, so what are you doing here?" Duan Yu said: "Eh! If you fall into his hands, if I don't come, he will definitely make things difficult for you, so what's the matter? "Mu Wanqing felt sweet, and said: "Hmph! You have a very bad conscience, I wish I could kill you with a sword. Why don't you come late, don't come early, wait until he leaves, you have a helper, this Just to pretend to be a good person? During these seven days and seven nights, you will not come to find me?" Duan Yu sighed, and said: "I've been restrained by others, I can't move, I miss you day and night, I'm really anxious to death. As soon as I have to get away, I will come here immediately."
That day the South Sea Crocodile God captured Mu Wanqing and went away. Duan Yu was alone on the high cliff, anxious: "If I don't rush to ask this wicked person to accept me as a disciple, Miss Mu's life will be lost. But if I ask this wicked person to be my teacher, After all, I can’t do the kung fu of making a loud noise and breaking my neck. When he taught me this kung fu, he probably had to find some people to let me try it out. I tried one after another, which was terrible. Fortunately, although this villain is extremely vicious, he is reasonable, how can I argue with him, so that he will let Miss Mu go, but he doesn't have to accept me as an apprentice." Wandering on the edge of the cliff, a faint pain in the stomach would arise again, and suddenly thought: "Oh, no, I'm so confused, how did I forget? I have already worshiped the fairy sister as my teacher in that cave, and it is already considered" Disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect. How can a disciple of the "Xiaoyao Sect" switch to the sect of the God of Crocodile in the South China Sea? By the way, I'm going to tell this villain, and I'm justified. Forgive him for saying "this is reasonable". .” Then I thought again: "This villain will definitely ask me to show off some of the 'Xiaoyao Sect' martial arts. I don't know it at all. Of course he doesn't believe that I am a disciple of the 'Xiaoyao Sect'." Then he remembered: "Sister Immortal ordered, Tell me to practice the magical skills in her scroll three times a day, morning, noon and evening, these days I have been messed up, but I haven't practiced half of the time, I really deserve to be damned." Feeling sorry, she was about to reach out her hand into her arms Going to touch the scroll, he suddenly heard footsteps behind him, turned around, was startled, and saw dozens of people coming up the cliff one after another. The first person was Sikong Xuan, the head of the Shennong Gang, followed by Zuo Zimu, the head of the East Sect of Wuliangjian, and Xin Shuangqing, the head of the West Sect. In addition, there were members of the Shennong Gang, disciples of the East and West Sect of Wuliangjian, and dozens of people mixed in. Together.Duan Yu thought to himself: "Why are the two sides not fighting anymore? It would be good to turn an enemy into a friend." I saw these dozens of people standing apart on both sides, bowing respectfully, obviously waiting for some important person to come up. For a moment, the green shadow swayed, and eight women rushed up the cliff, all wearing emerald green cloaks, with black eagles embroidered on the cloaks.Duan Yu secretly cried out: "My life is over!" Four of these eight women stood on both sides, followed by another woman in a green cloak walking up the cliff.This woman was in her twenties, with a handsome appearance, but there was an evil look in her brows, she glared at Duan Yu and said, "Who are you? What are you doing here?" When Duan Yu heard this, he was overjoyed: "She doesn't know that Miss Mu and I have killed four of her sisters, and we have pretended to be envoys from the Vulture Palace. Fortunately, my cloak has been wrapped around that fat old woman, Granny Ping, and Miss Mu His cloak floated into the Lancang River again. There is no proof of death, just push her away." Said: "Duan Yu in Dali, I will follow my friend to this Mr. Zuo's Wuliang Palace as a guest..." Zuo Zimu interjected, "Friend Duan, the Wuliang Sword has been attached to Tianshan Vulture Palace, and the Wuliang Palace has been renamed 'Wuliang Cave'. The word Wuliang Palace will not be called from now on." Duan Yu thought to himself: "It turns out that you couldn't beat him, so you surrendered, which is a brilliant idea." He said: "Congratulations, congratulations. Mr. Zuo abandoned the dark and turned to the bright, very good." Zuo Zimu thought to himself: "What's 'dark' about me before? What's 'bright' now?" But of course he couldn't say that, he could only smile wryly. Duan Yu continued: "I saw a misunderstanding between Chief Sikong and Mr. Zuo. He tried to persuade him with good intentions, but unexpectedly made a mess. He was ordered by Chief Sikong to get the antidote, but he met a big villain. He is called the South Sea Crocodile God Yue Lao San, who said that I have good qualifications and wants to take me as a disciple. I said I don't learn martial arts, but this South Sea Crocodile God is unreasonable, so he caught me here and put me on a high place, and asked me to worship him. He can't be a teacher. He has no strength to restrain a chicken." He spread his hands and said: "Such a high peak and precipitous cliff, so you can't go down no matter what. The girl asked me what I am doing here? That is Wait till you die." There is nothing false in his words, the first part is true, and the second part is not false, but a large part is omitted in the middle, thinking: "Confucius wrote about 'Spring and Autumn', and said it without writing it. Deletion and deletion do not violate the way of a sage, and lying is not a gentleman." The woman gave a "hmm" and said, "The Four Great Evil Men have finally arrived in Dali. Third Yue wants to take you as an apprentice, what are your qualifications?" Without waiting for Duan Yu to answer, she looked at Sikong Xuan and Zuo Zi Mu and the others swept away and asked, "Is what he said true?" Zuo Zimu said: "Yes." Sikong Xuan said: "I would like to report to the Holy Envoy, this kid doesn't know a little bit of kung fu, but he is always messing around." The woman said: "You said you saw those two sluts pretending to be my sisters fleeing to this mountain, but where are they? Mr. Duan, can you see the two women in green cloaks who are dressed like us?" ?” Duan Yu said: "No? I haven't seen two women who are dressed like my sister." He thought: "The ones wearing green cloaks pretending to be you are a man and a woman. I didn't look in the mirror, so I couldn't see myself; Mu girl is 'one woman', not 'two women'." The woman nodded, then turned to Sikong Xuan and said, "You have been under the Vulture Palace, haven't you had a lot of time?" Sikong Xuan said tremblingly, "It's been... eight years." The woman said, "Even us Elder sister can't recognize her, she is so stupid, what else can she do for the old child elder? Don't count on the antidote for this year's life and death talisman." Sikong Xuan's face turned pale, he knelt down on the ground, kowtowed, Asked: "The holy envoy is merciful, the holy envoy is merciful." 段誉心想：“这山羊胡子倒还没死，难道木姑娘给他的假解药管用，还是灵鹫宫给了他甚么灵丹妙药？那'生死符的解药'，却又是甚么东西？” 那女子对司空玄不加理睬，对辛双清道：“带了段相公下去。四大恶人若来罗唣，叫他们上缥缈峰灵鹫宫来找我。擒拿那两个冒牌小贱人的事，着落在你们无量洞头上。哼哼，好大的胆子！还有，干光豪、葛光佩两个叛徒，务须抓回来杀了。见到我那四位姊姊，说我叫她们径行回灵鹫宫，我不等她们了。”她说一句，辛双清答应一句，眼光竟不敢和她相接。那女子说罢，再也不向众人多瞧一眼，径自下峰，她属下八名女子跟随在后。 司空玄一直跪在地下，见九女下峰，忙跃起身来奔到崖边，叫道：“符圣使，请你上复童姥，司空玄对不起她老人家。”奔向高崖的另一边，涌身向澜沧江中跳了下去。 Everyone exclaimed in unison.神农帮帮众纷纷奔到崖边，但见浊浪滚滚，汹涌而过，帮主早已不知去向，有的便捶胸哭出声来。 无量剑众人见司空玄落得如此下场，面面相觑，尽皆神色黯然。 段誉心道：“这位司空玄帮主之死，跟我的干系可着实不小。”心下甚是歉仄。 辛双清指着无量剑东宗的两名男弟子道：“你们照料着段相公下去。”那两人一个叫郁光标，一个叫吴光胜，一齐躬身答应。 段誉在郁吴二人携扶拖拉之下，好不辛苦的来到山脚，吁了一口长气，向左子穆和辛双清拱手道：“多承相救下山，这就别过。”眼望南海鳄神先前所指的那座高峰，心想：“要上这座小峰，可比适才下峰加倍艰难，看来无量剑的人也不会这么好心，又将我拉上峰去。为了相救木姑娘，那也只有拚命了。” 不料辛双清道：“你不忙走，跟我一起去无量洞。”段誉忙道：“不，不。在下有要事在身，不能奉陪。恕罪，恕罪。”辛双清哼了一声，做个手势。郁吴两人各伸一臂，挽住了段誉双臂，径自前行。段誉叫道：“喂，喂，辛掌门，左掌门，我段誉可没得罪你们啊。刚才那位圣使姊姊吩咐你们带我下山，现今山已下了，我也已谢过了你们，又待怎地？” 辛双清和左子穆均不理会。段誉在郁吴两人左右挟持之下，抗拒不得，只有跟着他们来到无量洞。
郁吴两人带着他经过五进屋子，又穿过一座大花园，来到三间小屋之前。吴光胜打开房门，郁光标在他背上重重一推，推进门内，随即关上木门，只听得喀喇一声响，外面已上了锁。 段誉大叫：“你们无量剑讲理不讲？这可不是把我当作了犯人吗？无量剑又不是官府，怎能胡乱关人？”可是外面声息阒然，任他大叫大嚷，没一人理会。 段誉叹了口长气，心想：“既来之，则安之。那也只有听天由命了。”适才下峰行路，实已疲累万分，眼见房中有床有桌，躺在床上放头便睡。 睡不多久，便有人送饭来，饭菜倒也不恶。段誉向送饭的仆役道：“你去禀告左辛两位掌门，说我有话……”一句话没说完，郁光标在门外粗声喝道：“姓段的，你给我安安静静的，坐着也罢，躺着也罢，再要吵吵嚷嚷，莫怪我们不客气。你再开口说一句话，我就打你一个耳括子。两句话，两个耳光，三句三个。你会不会计数？” 段誉当即住口，心想：“这些粗人说得出，做得到。给木姑娘打几个耳光，痛在脸上，甜在心里。给你老兄打上几掌，滋味可大不相同。”吃了三大碗饭，倒在床上又睡，心想：“木姑娘这会儿不知怎么样了？最好是她放毒箭射死了那南海鳄神，脱身逃走，再来救我出去。唉，我怎地盼望她杀人？”胡思乱想一会，便睡着了。 这一觉睡到次日清晨才醒，只见房中陈设简陋，窗上铁条纵列，看来竟然便是无量剑关人的所在，只是空间宽敞，倒无局促之感，心想第一件事，须得遵照神仙姊姊嘱咐，练她的“北冥神功”，于是从怀中摸出卷轴，放在桌上，一想到画中的裸像，一颗心便怦怦乱跳，面红耳赤，急忙正襟危坐，心中默告：“神仙姊姊，我是遵你吩咐，修习神功，可不是想偷看你的贵体，亵渎莫怪。” 缓缓展开，将第一图后的小字看了几遍。这等文字上的功夫，在他自是犹如家常便饭一般，看一遍即已明白，第二遍已然记住，读到第三遍后便有所会心。他不敢多看图中女像，记住了像上的经脉和穴位，便照着卷轴中所记的法门练了起来。 文中言道：本门内功，适与各家各派之内功逆其道而行，是以凡曾修习内功之人，务须尽忘已学，专心修习新功，若有丝毫混杂岔乱，则两功互冲，立时颠狂呕血，诸脉俱废，最是凶险不过。文中反复致意，说的都是这个重大关节。段誉从未练过内功，于这最艰难的一关竟可全然不加措意，倒也方便。 只小半个时辰，便已依照图中所示，将“手太阴肺经”的经脉穴道存想无误，只是身上内息全无，自也无法运息通行经脉。跟着便练“任脉”，此脉起于肛门与下阴之间的“会阴穴”，自曲骨、中极、关元、石门诸穴直通而上，经腹、胸、喉，而至口中下齿缝间的“龂基穴”。任脉穴位甚多，经脉走势却是笔直一条，十分简易，段誉顷刻间便记住了诸穴的位置名称，伸手在自己身上一个穴道、一个穴道的摸过去。此脉仍是逆练，由龂基、承浆、廉泉、天突一路向下至会阴而止。 图中言道：“手太阴肺经暨任脉，乃北冥神功根基，其中拇指之少商穴、及两乳间之膻中穴，尤为要中之要，前者取，后者贮。人有四海：胃者水谷之海，冲脉者十二经之海，膻中者气之海，脑者髓之海是也。食水谷而贮于胃，婴儿生而即能，不待练也。以少商取人内力而贮之于我气海，惟逍遥派正宗北冥神功能之。人食水谷，不过一日，尽泄诸外。我取人内力，则取一分，贮一分，不泄无尽，愈积愈厚，犹北冥天池之巨浸，可浮千里之鲲。” 段誉掩卷凝思：“这门功夫纯系损人利己，将别人辛辛苦苦练成的内力，取来积贮于自身，岂不是如同食人之血肉？又如盘剥重利，搜刮旁人钱财而据为己有？我已答应了神仙姊姊，不练是不成的了，但我此生决不取人内力。” 转念又想：“伯父常说，人生于世，不衣不食，无以为生，而一粥一饭，半丝半缕，尽皆取之于人。取人之物，殆无可免，端在如何报答。取之者寡而报之者厚，那就是了。取于为富不仁之徒，用于贫困无依之辈，非但无愧于心，且是仁人义士的慈悲善举，儒家佛家，其理一般。取民脂民膏以供奉一己之穷奢极欲，是为残民以逞；以之兼善天下，普施于众，则为万家生佛。是以不在取与不取，而在用之为善为恶。”想明白了此节，倒也不觉修习这门功夫是如何不该了。 心下坦然之余，又想：“总而言之，我这一生要多做好事，不做坏事。巨象可负千斤，蝼蚁仅曳一芥，力大则所做好事亦大，做起坏事来也厉害。以南海鳄神的本领，若是专做好事，岂非造福不浅？”想到这里，觉得就算拜了南海鳄神为师，只要专扭坏人的脖子，似乎“这话倒也有理”。 卷轴中此外诸种经脉修习之法甚多，皆是取人内力的法门，段誉虽然自语宽解，总觉习之有违本性，单是贪多务得，便非好事，当下暂不理会。 卷到卷轴末端，又见到了“凌波微步”那四字，登时便想起《洛神赋》中那些句子来：“凌波微步，罗袜生尘……转盼流精，光润玉颜。含辞未吐，气若幽兰。华容婀娜，令我忘餐。”曹子建那些千古名句，在脑海中缓缓流过：“秾纤得衷，修短合度，肩若削成，腰如约素，延颈秀项，皓质呈露，芳泽无加，铅华弗御。云髻峨峨，修眉连娟。丹唇外朗，皓齿内鲜。明眸善睐，辅靥承权。瓌姿艳逸，仪静体闲。柔情绰态，媚于语言……”想到神仙姊姊的姿容体态，“皎若太阳升朝霞，灼若芙蓉出绿波”，但觉依她的吩咐行事，实是人生至乐，当真百死不辞，万劫无悔，心想：“我先来练这'凌波微步'，此乃逃命之妙法，非害人之本领也，练之有百利而无一害。” 卷轴上既绘明步法，又详注六十四卦的方位，他熟习，学起来自不为难。但有时卷轴上步法甚怪，走了上一步后，无法接到下一步，直至想到须得凭空转一个身，这才极巧妙自然的接上了；有时则须跃前纵后、左窜右闪，方合于卷上的步法。他书呆子的劲道一发，遇到难题便苦苦钻研，一得悟解，乐趣之大，实是难以言宣，不禁觉得：“武学之中，原来也有这般无穷乐趣。实不下于读书诵经。” 如此一日过去，卷上的步法已学得了两三成，晚饭过后，再学了十几步，便即上床。迷迷糊糊中似睡似醒，脑子中来来去去的不是少商、膻中、关元、中极诸穴道，便是同人、大有、归妹、未济等易卦。 睡到中夜，猛听到江昂、江昂、江昂几下巨吼，登时惊醒，过不多久，又听得江昂、江昂、江昂几下大吼，声音似是牛吽，却又多了几分凄厉之意，不知是甚么猛兽。他知无量山中颇多毒虫怪兽，听得吼声停歇，便也不以为意，着枕又睡。 却听得隔室有人说道：“这'莽牯朱蛤'已好久没出现了，今晚忽然鸣叫，不知主何吉凶？”另一人道：“咱们东宗落到这步田地，吉是吉不起来的，只要不凶到家，就已谢天谢地了。”段誉知是那两名男弟子郁光标与吴光胜，料来他们睡在隔壁，奉命监视，以防自己逃走。 只听那吴光胜道：“咱们无量剑归属了灵鹫宫，虽然从此受制于人，不得自由，却也得了个大靠山，可说好坏参半。我最气不过的，西宗明明不及我们东宗，干么那位符圣使却要辛师叔作无量洞之主，咱们师父反须听她号令。”郁光标道：“谁教灵鹫宫中自天山童姥以下个个都是女人哪？她们说天下男子没一个靠得住。听说这位符圣使倒是好心，派辛师叔做了咱们头儿，灵鹫宫对无量洞就会另眼相看。你瞧，符圣使对神农帮司空玄何等辣手，对辛师叔的脸色就好得多。”吴光胜道：“郁师哥，这个我可又不明白了。符圣使对隔壁那小子怎地又客客气气？甚么'段相公'、'段相公'的，叫得好不亲热。” 段誉听他们说到自己，更加凝神倾听。 郁光标笑道：“这几句话哪，咱们可只能在这里悄悄的说。一个年轻姑娘，对一个小白脸客客气气，'段相公'、'段相公'的叫……”他说到“段相公”三字时，压紧了嗓子，学着那灵鹫宫姓符圣使的腔调，自行再添上几分娇声嗲气，“……你猜是甚么意思？”吴光胜道：“难道符圣使瞧中了这小白脸？”郁光标道：“小声些，别吵醒了小白脸。”接着笑道：“我又不是符圣使肚里的圣蛔虫，又怎明白她老人家的圣意？我猜辛师叔也是想到了这一着，因此叫咱们好好瞧着他，别让他走了。”吴光胜道：“那可要关他到几时啊？”郁光标道：“符圣使在山峰上说：'辛双清，带了段相公下去，四大恶人若来罗唣，叫他们上缥缈峰灵鹫宫找我。'……”这几句话又是学着那绿衣女子的腔调，“……可是带了段相公下山怎么样？她老人家不说，别人也就不敢问。要是符圣使有一天忽然派人传下话来：'辛双清，把段相公送上灵鹫宫来见我。'咱们却已把这姓段的小白脸杀了，放了，岂不是糟天下之大糕？”吴光胜道：“要是符圣使从此不提，咱们难道把这小白脸在这里关上一辈子，以便随时恭候符圣使号令到来？”郁光标笑道：“可不是吗？” 段誉心里一连串的只叫：“苦也！苦也！”心道：“这位姓符的圣使姊姊尊称我一声'段相公'，只不过见我是读书人，客气三分，你们歪七缠八，又想到哪里去啦？你们就把我关到胡子白了，那位圣使姊姊也决不会再想到我这个老白脸。” 正烦恼间，只听吴光胜道：“咱二人岂不是也要……”突然江昂、江昂、江昂三响，那“莽牯朱蛤”又吼了起来。吴光胜立即住口。隔了好一会，等莽牯朱蛤不再吼叫，他才又说道：“莽牯朱蛤一叫，我总是心惊肉跳，瘟神爷不知这次又要收多少条人命。”郁光标道：“大家说莽牯朱蛤是瘟神爷的坐骑，那也是说说罢啦。文殊菩萨骑狮子，普贤菩萨骑白象，太上老君骑青牛，这莽牯朱蛤是万毒之王，神通广大，毒性厉害，故老相传，就说他是瘟菩萨的坐骑，其实也未必是真的。” 吴光胜道：“郁师兄，你说这莽牯朱蛤到底是甚么样儿。”郁光标笑道：“你想不想瞧瞧。”吴光胜笑道：“那还是你瞧过之后跟我说罢。”郁光标道：“我一见到莽牯朱蛤，毒气立时冲瞎了眼睛，跟着毒质入脑，只怕也没功夫来跟你说这万毒之王的模样儿了。还是咱哥儿俩一起去瞧瞧罢。”说着只听得脚步声响，又是拔下门闩的声音。 吴光胜忙道：“别……别开这玩笑。”话声发颤，抢过去上回门闩，郁光标笑道：“哈哈，我难道真有这胆子去瞧？瞧你吓成了这副德性。”吴光胜道：“这种玩笑还是别开的为妙，莫要当真惹出甚么事来。太太平平的，这就睡罢！” 郁光标转过话题，说道：“你猜干光豪跟葛光佩这对狗男女，是不是逃得掉？”吴光胜道：“隔了这么久还是不见影踪，只怕当真给他们逃掉了。”郁光标道：“干光豪有多大本事，我可知道得一清二楚，这人贪懒好色，练剑又不用心，就只甜嘴蜜舌的骗女人倒有几下散手。大伙儿东南西北都找遍了，连灵鹫宫的圣使也亲自出马，居然仍是给他们溜了，老子就是不信。”吴光胜道：“你不信可也得信啊。” 郁光标道：“我猜这对狗男女定是逃入深山，撞上了莽牯朱蛤。”吴光胜“啊”的一声，大有惊惧之意。郁光标道：“这二人定是尽拣荒僻的地方逃去，一见到莽牯朱蛤，毒气入脑，全身化为一滩脓血，自然影踪全无。”吴光胜道：“你猜的倒也有几分道理。”郁光标道：“甚么几分道理？若不是遇上了莽牯朱蛤，那就岂有此理。”吴光胜道：“说不定他二人耐不住啦，就在荒山野岭里这个那个起来，昏天黑地之际，两人来一招'鲤鱼翻身'，啊哟，乖乖不得了，掉入了万丈深谷。”两人都吃吃吃的淫笑起来。 段誉寻思：“木姑娘在那小饭铺中射死了干葛二人，无量剑的人不会查不到啊。嗯，是了，定是那饭铺老板怕惹祸，快手快脚的将两具尸身埋了。无量剑的人去查问，市集上的人见到他们手执兵器，凶神恶煞的模样，谁也不敢说出来。” 只听吴光胜道：“无量剑东西宗逃走了一男一女两个弟子，也不是甚么大事。皇帝不急太监急，灵鹫宫的圣使又干么这等着紧，非将这二人抓回来不可？”郁光标道：“这你就得动动脑筋，想上一想了。”吴光胜沉默半晌，道：“你知道我的脑筋向来不灵，动来动去，动不出甚么名堂来。” 郁光标道：“我先问你：灵鹫宫要占咱们的无量宫，那为了甚么？”吴光胜道：“听唐师哥说，多半是为了后山的无量玉壁。符圣使一到，三番四次的，就是查问无量玉壁上的仙影啦、剑法啦这些东西。对啦！咱们都遵照符圣使的吩咐，立下了毒誓，玉壁仙影的事，以后谁也不敢泄漏，可是干光豪与葛光佩呢，他们可没立这个誓，既然叛离了本派，那还有不说出去的？”吴光胜一拍大腿，叫道：“对，对！灵鹫宫是要杀了这两个家伙灭口。” 郁光标低声喝道：“别这么嚷嚷的，隔壁屋里有人，你忘了吗？”吴光胜忙道：“是，是。”停了一会，说道：“干光豪这家伙倒是艳福不浅，把葛光佩这白白嫩嫩的小麻皮搂在怀里，这么剥得她白羊儿似的，啧啧啧……他妈的，就算后来化成了一滩脓血，那也……那也……嘿嘿。” 两人此后说来说去，都是些猥亵粗俗的言语，段誉便不再听，可是隔墙的淫猥笑话不绝传来，不听却是不行，于是默想“北冥神功”中的经脉穴道，过不多时，便潜心内想，隔墙之言说得再响，却一个字也听不到了。 次日他又练那“凌波微步”，照着卷中所绘步法，一步步的试演。这步法左歪右斜，没一步笔直进退，虽在室中，只须挪开了桌椅，也尽能施展得开，又学得十来步，蓦地心想：“待会送饭之人进来，我只须这么斜走歪步，立时便绕过了他，抢出门去，他未必能抓得我着。岂不是立刻便可逃走，不用在这屋里等到变成老白脸了？”想到此处，喜不自胜，心道：“我可要练得纯熟无比，只要走错了半步，便给他一把抓住。说不定从此在我脚上加一副铁镣，再用根铁链锁住，那时凌波微步再妙，步来步去总是给铁链拉住了，欲不为老白脸亦不可得矣。”说着脑袋摆了个圈子。 当下将已学会了的一百多步从头至尾默想一遍，心道：“我可要想也不想，举步便对。唉，我段誉这样一个臭男子，却去学那洛神宓妃袅袅娜娜的凌波微步，我又有甚么'罗袜生尘'了？光屁股生尘倒是有的。”哈哈一笑，左足跨出，既踏“中孚”，立转“既济”。不料甫上“泰”位，一个转身，右脚踏上“蛊”位，突然间丹田中一股热气冲将上来，全身麻痹，向前冲出，伏在桌上，再也动弹不得。 他一惊之下，伸手撑桌，想站起身来，不料四肢百骸没一处再听使唤，便要移动一根小指头儿也是不能，就似身处梦魇之中，愈着急，愈使不出半点力道。 他可不知这“凌波微步”乃是一门极上乘的武功，所以列于卷轴之末，原是要待人练成“北冥神功”，吸人内力，自身内力已颇为深厚之后再练。“凌波微步”每一步踏出，全身行动与内力息息相关，决非单是迈步行走而已。段誉全无内功根基，走一步，想一想，退一步，又停顿片刻，血脉有缓息的余裕，自无阻碍。他想熟之后，突然一气呵成的走将起来，体内经脉错乱，登时瘫痪，几乎走火入魔。幸好他没跨得几步，步子又不如何迅速，总算没到绝经断脉的危境。 他惊惶之中，出力挣扎，但越使力，胸腹间越难过，似欲呕吐，却又呕吐不出。他长叹一声，只有不动，这一任其自然，烦恶之感反而渐消。当下便这么一
Zuo Zimu drew his sword back, and suddenly clenched his wrist, the handle of the long sword could no longer be held, he let go of his hand and flew up, the momentum brought him back two steps.The three of them were startled, and they all raised their heads to look at the long sword at the same time.I saw that the blade of the sword was wrapped by a slender rope, and at the end of the rope was an iron rod, which was held in the hands of an officer in yellow.This man was about thirty years old, his face was heroic, and he couldn't help but sneer.Ye Erniang recognized him as the person who fought with Yun Zhonghe seven days ago, his martial arts are not weak, but he is not as good as her own, so she is not afraid of him, she just wonders if his companions have also arrived, she squinted at him Go, and I saw another yellow-clothed officer standing on the left, with a pair of hatchets stuck in his waist. Ye Erniang was about to speak, when she heard a slight noise behind her, she immediately turned around, and saw a person standing on the southeast and southwest corners respectively, wearing the same color as the previous two, yellow clothes with hooded head, military officer's attire .The hand on the southeast corner is holding a pair of judge pens, and the hand on the southwest corner is holding a wrought copper eyebrow stick. The four people are divided into four corners, forming a faint encirclement. Zuo Zimu Lang said: "It turns out that the four major guards of Chu, Gu, Fu and Zhu in the palace have arrived together. I will be polite to Zuo Zimu here." He said to the four of them.The guard Zhu Danchen holding the judge's pen clasped his fists in return, but the other three ignored him. The guard who arrived first, Chu Wanli, shook the iron pole, and the long sword wrapped on the soft rope kept shaking in the air, shining under the sunlight.He sneered and said, "'Wuliangjian' is considered a famous sect in Dali. I didn't expect the head of the sect to be such a despicable person. Where is Mr. Duan? Where is he?" Mu Wanqing was already determined to die, but she was overjoyed when the savior came suddenly, and she was even more concerned when she heard him ask about Young Master Duan. Zuo Zimu said: "Duan...Young Master Duan? That's right, a few days ago, I met Young Master Duan a few times...but now I don't know...but I don't know where I went to." Mu Wanqing said: "Mr. Duan has been killed by this woman's brother." Pointing to Ye Erniang, he said: "What is that man called 'poor and vicious' Yun Zhonghe, tall and thin, like a bamboo It looks like a pole..." Chu Wanli was taken aback, and shouted: "Really? That person?" Fu Sigui, the guard holding a cooked copper stick, heard that Duan Yu had been killed, filled with grief and anger, and shouted: "Mr. Duan, I will avenge you." The copper stick fell on Ye Erniang's head. Erniang Ye dodged to dodge, and shouted: "Ah, my son, Chu Gufu, Zhu Sisi, Dali Kingdom, you died short-lived. Wait for your own mother Ye Erniang." Chu, Gu, Fu, and Zhu are not much younger than her, but she calls herself her own mother, "My son", "Short-lived darling" Call the general to get up. Fu Sigui was furious, a copper rod made a whistling wind, and instantly turned into a cloud of yellow mist, wrapping her in it.Ye Erniang held Zuo Zimu's child with both hands, and dodged between the copper rods, but the copper rods still couldn't hit her.The child screamed loudly.Zuo Zimu shouted urgently: "You two stop, you two stop!" Another guard pulled out an ax from his waist, and shouted: "'No Evil, No Evil' Ye Erniang really deserves her reputation, wait for me, Gu Ducheng, to learn the brilliant trick." The man followed the sound, and rolled to the ground. With one axe, he slashed her lower body with the right axe.Ye Erniang laughed and said: "This child is in the way, you should hack him to death first." Sending the child down, he went to meet the axe.Gu Ducheng was taken aback, and hastily retracted the axe, but Ye Erniang's leg flew out from the bottom of her skirt and hit him on the shoulder, fortunately, he had a strong body, he only staggered slightly after being hit by this leg, and was not injured, so he immediately jumped on him and hit him again. .Ye Erniang used the child as a talisman, and when Gu Ducheng and Fu Sigui handed out the weapons, they were greatly restrained. Zuo Zimu shouted urgently: "Be careful, child! This is my child, be careful, be careful! Brother Fu, you hit the stick too high. Brother Gu, don't...don't greet my child with your axe." In the midst of the confusion, a flute sound suddenly came from behind the mountain, clear and intense, and it sounded nearby in a short while. A middle-aged man in a wide robe and long sleeves turned out from behind the hillside. He had three long beards and was elegant in appearance. An iron flute is still close to his mouth and blowing.Zhu Danchen stepped forward quickly, walked to his side, and said a few words in a low voice.The man played the flute non-stop, with a leisurely tune, and walked slowly towards the three who were fighting.All of a sudden, the sound of the flute blared, causing pain in everyone's ear drums.He pressed all ten fingers on the flute hole and blew rapidly, a gust of wind flew out from the end of the iron flute and rushed towards Ye Erniang's face.Ye Erniang turned away in shock, the iron flute was pointed at her throat. These two strokes were astonishingly fast, even though Ye Erniang was quick to respond, she couldn't help but feel a little at a loss, she swayed her waist slightly in her busy schedule, her upper body abruptly moved back a foot, and threw Zuo Shanshan to the ground, stretched out her hand Catch it to the iron flute.The robed guest didn't wait for the baby to land, he swung his sleeves and rolled up the baby.As soon as Ye Erniang caught the iron flute, she felt that the flute was as hot as red charcoal, and she was startled: "Is there poison on the flute?" She hurriedly let go of the flute and jumped a few steps away.The robed guest waved his sleeves and threw Shan Shan steadily towards Zuo Zimu. Ye Erniang glanced at it and saw that the left palm of the robed man was as red as blood, and she was shocked again: "It turns out that the flute is not covered with poison, but because of his internal strength, it is so hot that the iron flute looks like it has just been taken out of the furnace." Average." Involuntarily took a few steps back, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency is very good at martial arts, I never thought that Xiao Dali would have such an expert. May I ask your name?" The robed man smiled slightly, and said: "Erniang Ye is here, it's a pleasure to meet you, it's a pleasure to meet you. Dali Kingdom should show its kindness as a landlord." Zuo Zimu embraced his son, and blurted out his surprise and surprise. And came out: "Your honor is Gao... Gao Junhou?" The robed guest smiled and didn't answer, and asked Erniang Ye: "Where is Mr. Duan? I still want to tell you." Ye Erniang sneered and said, "I don't know, even if I knew, I wouldn't say it." Suddenly she jumped up and fell towards the mountain peak.The man in broad robe said: "Wait a minute!" He flew after him, suddenly there was a flash of light in front of his eyes, and seven or eight hidden weapons were thrown like beads, hitting several vital points on his head and face.The robed guest waved his iron flute and shot down one by one.I saw her drifting and swaying, she had gone too far, and she could no longer catch up.When he looked at the hidden weapons that fell on the ground again, each one was different, and they were all gold and silverware hanging on the child's body, some were longevity cards, or small lock pieces, and he suddenly remembered: "These are all hidden weapons that were hidden by the child." All the children she killed. If this harm is not cured, how many children will die in Dali Kingdom." Chu Wanli swung the iron rod, and the long sword wrapped on the soft rope flew out, turned the hilt upside down, and flew towards Zuo Zimu.Zuo Zimu stretched out his arms to hold her, his face full of shame, speechless.Chu Wanli turned to Mu Wanqing and asked, "What happened to Mr. Duan? Was it really caused by Yun Zhonghe?" Mu Wanqing thought to herself: "These people seem to be Duan Lang's friends, so I told them the truth, so that we can go to the cliff over there and search carefully." Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard a distraught man in the middle of the mountain. Call: "Mu girl...Mu girl... are you still here? South Sea Crocodile God, here I come, you must not harm Mu girl! Let's discuss whether to worship Master or not...Mu girl, Mu girl, Are you all right?" The robed guests waited and cheered in unison: "It's the young master!" Mu Wanqing had been waiting for him for seven days and seven nights, she was exhausted physically and mentally, but at this moment she heard his voice, she was pleasantly surprised, her eyes went dark, and she passed out immediately. In a coma, someone whispered in her ears: "Mu girl, Mu girl, you, you wake up!" Gradually, she regained her senses, and felt that she was lying in someone's arms, being held on the shoulders, and wanted to jump She was about to get up, but then thought: "Duan Lang is here." My heart was sweet, but also bitter, I slowly opened my eyes, the eyes in front of me are as clear as autumn water, but who is it not Duan Yu?He said happily: "Ah, you've finally woken up." Mu Wanqing burst into tears, and slapped him hard with a backhand palm, but she was still lying in his arms, unable to struggle and jumped up for a while. Duan Yu caressed his cheek and said with a smile: "You hit people at every turn, you are really arrogant!" He asked: "Where is the South Sea Crocodile God? Isn't he waiting for me here?" Mu Wanqing said: "He has already waited for me. Seven days and seven nights for you, isn’t that enough? He’s gone.” Duan Yu immediately beamed with joy, and said, “Wonderful, wonderful! I’m just worried. If he insists on forcing me to worship him as a teacher, I don’t know what to do. All right." Mu Wanqing said: "You don't want to be his apprentice, so what are you doing here?" Duan Yu said: "Eh! If you fall into his hands, if I don't come, he will definitely make things difficult for you, so what's the matter? "Mu Wanqing felt sweet, and said: "Hmph! You have a very bad conscience, I wish I could kill you with a sword. Why don't you come late, don't come early, wait until he leaves, you have a helper, this Just to pretend to be a good person? During these seven days and seven nights, you will not come to find me?" Duan Yu sighed, and said: "I've been restrained by others, I can't move, I miss you day and night, I'm really anxious to death. As soon as I have to get away, I will come here immediately."
That day the South Sea Crocodile God captured Mu Wanqing and went away. Duan Yu was alone on the high cliff, anxious: "If I don't rush to ask this wicked person to accept me as a disciple, Miss Mu's life will be lost. But if I ask this wicked person to be my teacher, After all, I can’t do the kung fu of making a loud noise and breaking my neck. When he taught me this kung fu, he probably had to find some people to let me try it out. I tried one after another, which was terrible. Fortunately, although this villain is extremely vicious, he is reasonable, how can I argue with him, so that he will let Miss Mu go, but he doesn't have to accept me as an apprentice." Wandering on the edge of the cliff, a faint pain in the stomach would arise again, and suddenly thought: "Oh, no, I'm so confused, how did I forget? I have already worshiped the fairy sister as my teacher in that cave, and it is already considered" Disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect. How can a disciple of the "Xiaoyao Sect" switch to the sect of the God of Crocodile in the South China Sea? By the way, I'm going to tell this villain, and I'm justified. Forgive him for saying "this is reasonable". .” Then I thought again: "This villain will definitely ask me to show off some of the 'Xiaoyao Sect' martial arts. I don't know it at all. Of course he doesn't believe that I am a disciple of the 'Xiaoyao Sect'." Then he remembered: "Sister Immortal ordered, Tell me to practice the magical skills in her scroll three times a day, morning, noon and evening, these days I have been messed up, but I haven't practiced half of the time, I really deserve to be damned." Feeling sorry, she was about to reach out her hand into her arms Going to touch the scroll, he suddenly heard footsteps behind him, turned around, was startled, and saw dozens of people coming up the cliff one after another. The first person was Sikong Xuan, the head of the Shennong Gang, followed by Zuo Zimu, the head of the East Sect of Wuliangjian, and Xin Shuangqing, the head of the West Sect. In addition, there were members of the Shennong Gang, disciples of the East and West Sect of Wuliangjian, and dozens of people mixed in. Together.Duan Yu thought to himself: "Why are the two sides not fighting anymore? It would be good to turn an enemy into a friend." I saw these dozens of people standing apart on both sides, bowing respectfully, obviously waiting for some important person to come up. For a moment, the green shadow swayed, and eight women rushed up the cliff, all wearing emerald green cloaks, with black eagles embroidered on the cloaks.Duan Yu secretly cried out: "My life is over!" Four of these eight women stood on both sides, followed by another woman in a green cloak walking up the cliff.This woman was in her twenties, with a handsome appearance, but there was an evil look in her brows, she glared at Duan Yu and said, "Who are you? What are you doing here?" When Duan Yu heard this, he was overjoyed: "She doesn't know that Miss Mu and I have killed four of her sisters, and we have pretended to be envoys from the Vulture Palace. Fortunately, my cloak has been wrapped around that fat old woman, Granny Ping, and Miss Mu His cloak floated into the Lancang River again. There is no proof of death, just push her away." Said: "Duan Yu in Dali, I will follow my friend to this Mr. Zuo's Wuliang Palace as a guest..." Zuo Zimu interjected, "Friend Duan, the Wuliang Sword has been attached to Tianshan Vulture Palace, and the Wuliang Palace has been renamed 'Wuliang Cave'. The word Wuliang Palace will not be called from now on." Duan Yu thought to himself: "It turns out that you couldn't beat him, so you surrendered, which is a brilliant idea." He said: "Congratulations, congratulations. Mr. Zuo abandoned the dark and turned to the bright, very good." Zuo Zimu thought to himself: "What's 'dark' about me before? What's 'bright' now?" But of course he couldn't say that, he could only smile wryly. Duan Yu continued: "I saw a misunderstanding between Chief Sikong and Mr. Zuo. He tried to persuade him with good intentions, but unexpectedly made a mess. He was ordered by Chief Sikong to get the antidote, but he met a big villain. He is called the South Sea Crocodile God Yue Lao San, who said that I have good qualifications and wants to take me as a disciple. I said I don't learn martial arts, but this South Sea Crocodile God is unreasonable, so he caught me here and put me on a high place, and asked me to worship him. He can't be a teacher. He has no strength to restrain a chicken." He spread his hands and said: "Such a high peak and precipitous cliff, so you can't go down no matter what. The girl asked me what I am doing here? That is Wait till you die." There is nothing false in his words, the first part is true, and the second part is not false, but a large part is omitted in the middle, thinking: "Confucius wrote about 'Spring and Autumn', and said it without writing it. Deletion and deletion do not violate the way of a sage, and lying is not a gentleman." The woman gave a "hmm" and said, "The Four Great Evil Men have finally arrived in Dali. Third Yue wants to take you as an apprentice, what are your qualifications?" Without waiting for Duan Yu to answer, she looked at Sikong Xuan and Zuo Zi Mu and the others swept away and asked, "Is what he said true?" Zuo Zimu said: "Yes." Sikong Xuan said: "I would like to report to the Holy Envoy, this kid doesn't know a little bit of kung fu, but he is always messing around." The woman said: "You said you saw those two sluts pretending to be my sisters fleeing to this mountain, but where are they? Mr. Duan, can you see the two women in green cloaks who are dressed like us?" ?” Duan Yu said: "No? I haven't seen two women who are dressed like my sister." He thought: "The ones wearing green cloaks pretending to be you are a man and a woman. I didn't look in the mirror, so I couldn't see myself; Mu girl is 'one woman', not 'two women'." The woman nodded, then turned to Sikong Xuan and said, "You have been under the Vulture Palace, haven't you had a lot of time?" Sikong Xuan said tremblingly, "It's been... eight years." The woman said, "Even us Elder sister can't recognize her, she is so stupid, what else can she do for the old child elder? Don't count on the antidote for this year's life and death talisman." Sikong Xuan's face turned pale, he knelt down on the ground, kowtowed, Asked: "The holy envoy is merciful, the holy envoy is merciful." 段誉心想：“这山羊胡子倒还没死，难道木姑娘给他的假解药管用，还是灵鹫宫给了他甚么灵丹妙药？那'生死符的解药'，却又是甚么东西？” 那女子对司空玄不加理睬，对辛双清道：“带了段相公下去。四大恶人若来罗唣，叫他们上缥缈峰灵鹫宫来找我。擒拿那两个冒牌小贱人的事，着落在你们无量洞头上。哼哼，好大的胆子！还有，干光豪、葛光佩两个叛徒，务须抓回来杀了。见到我那四位姊姊，说我叫她们径行回灵鹫宫，我不等她们了。”她说一句，辛双清答应一句，眼光竟不敢和她相接。那女子说罢，再也不向众人多瞧一眼，径自下峰，她属下八名女子跟随在后。 司空玄一直跪在地下，见九女下峰，忙跃起身来奔到崖边，叫道：“符圣使，请你上复童姥，司空玄对不起她老人家。”奔向高崖的另一边，涌身向澜沧江中跳了下去。 Everyone exclaimed in unison.神农帮帮众纷纷奔到崖边，但见浊浪滚滚，汹涌而过，帮主早已不知去向，有的便捶胸哭出声来。 无量剑众人见司空玄落得如此下场，面面相觑，尽皆神色黯然。 段誉心道：“这位司空玄帮主之死，跟我的干系可着实不小。”心下甚是歉仄。 辛双清指着无量剑东宗的两名男弟子道：“你们照料着段相公下去。”那两人一个叫郁光标，一个叫吴光胜，一齐躬身答应。 段誉在郁吴二人携扶拖拉之下，好不辛苦的来到山脚，吁了一口长气，向左子穆和辛双清拱手道：“多承相救下山，这就别过。”眼望南海鳄神先前所指的那座高峰，心想：“要上这座小峰，可比适才下峰加倍艰难，看来无量剑的人也不会这么好心，又将我拉上峰去。为了相救木姑娘，那也只有拚命了。” 不料辛双清道：“你不忙走，跟我一起去无量洞。”段誉忙道：“不，不。在下有要事在身，不能奉陪。恕罪，恕罪。”辛双清哼了一声，做个手势。郁吴两人各伸一臂，挽住了段誉双臂，径自前行。段誉叫道：“喂，喂，辛掌门，左掌门，我段誉可没得罪你们啊。刚才那位圣使姊姊吩咐你们带我下山，现今山已下了，我也已谢过了你们，又待怎地？” 辛双清和左子穆均不理会。段誉在郁吴两人左右挟持之下，抗拒不得，只有跟着他们来到无量洞。
郁吴两人带着他经过五进屋子，又穿过一座大花园，来到三间小屋之前。吴光胜打开房门，郁光标在他背上重重一推，推进门内，随即关上木门，只听得喀喇一声响，外面已上了锁。 段誉大叫：“你们无量剑讲理不讲？这可不是把我当作了犯人吗？无量剑又不是官府，怎能胡乱关人？”可是外面声息阒然，任他大叫大嚷，没一人理会。 段誉叹了口长气，心想：“既来之，则安之。那也只有听天由命了。”适才下峰行路，实已疲累万分，眼见房中有床有桌，躺在床上放头便睡。 睡不多久，便有人送饭来，饭菜倒也不恶。段誉向送饭的仆役道：“你去禀告左辛两位掌门，说我有话……”一句话没说完，郁光标在门外粗声喝道：“姓段的，你给我安安静静的，坐着也罢，躺着也罢，再要吵吵嚷嚷，莫怪我们不客气。你再开口说一句话，我就打你一个耳括子。两句话，两个耳光，三句三个。你会不会计数？” 段誉当即住口，心想：“这些粗人说得出，做得到。给木姑娘打几个耳光，痛在脸上，甜在心里。给你老兄打上几掌，滋味可大不相同。”吃了三大碗饭，倒在床上又睡，心想：“木姑娘这会儿不知怎么样了？最好是她放毒箭射死了那南海鳄神，脱身逃走，再来救我出去。唉，我怎地盼望她杀人？”胡思乱想一会，便睡着了。 这一觉睡到次日清晨才醒，只见房中陈设简陋，窗上铁条纵列，看来竟然便是无量剑关人的所在，只是空间宽敞，倒无局促之感，心想第一件事，须得遵照神仙姊姊嘱咐，练她的“北冥神功”，于是从怀中摸出卷轴，放在桌上，一想到画中的裸像，一颗心便怦怦乱跳，面红耳赤，急忙正襟危坐，心中默告：“神仙姊姊，我是遵你吩咐，修习神功，可不是想偷看你的贵体，亵渎莫怪。” 缓缓展开，将第一图后的小字看了几遍。这等文字上的功夫，在他自是犹如家常便饭一般，看一遍即已明白，第二遍已然记住，读到第三遍后便有所会心。他不敢多看图中女像，记住了像上的经脉和穴位，便照着卷轴中所记的法门练了起来。 文中言道：本门内功，适与各家各派之内功逆其道而行，是以凡曾修习内功之人，务须尽忘已学，专心修习新功，若有丝毫混杂岔乱，则两功互冲，立时颠狂呕血，诸脉俱废，最是凶险不过。文中反复致意，说的都是这个重大关节。段誉从未练过内功，于这最艰难的一关竟可全然不加措意，倒也方便。 只小半个时辰，便已依照图中所示，将“手太阴肺经”的经脉穴道存想无误，只是身上内息全无，自也无法运息通行经脉。跟着便练“任脉”，此脉起于肛门与下阴之间的“会阴穴”，自曲骨、中极、关元、石门诸穴直通而上，经腹、胸、喉，而至口中下齿缝间的“龂基穴”。任脉穴位甚多，经脉走势却是笔直一条，十分简易，段誉顷刻间便记住了诸穴的位置名称，伸手在自己身上一个穴道、一个穴道的摸过去。此脉仍是逆练，由龂基、承浆、廉泉、天突一路向下至会阴而止。 图中言道：“手太阴肺经暨任脉，乃北冥神功根基，其中拇指之少商穴、及两乳间之膻中穴，尤为要中之要，前者取，后者贮。人有四海：胃者水谷之海，冲脉者十二经之海，膻中者气之海，脑者髓之海是也。食水谷而贮于胃，婴儿生而即能，不待练也。以少商取人内力而贮之于我气海，惟逍遥派正宗北冥神功能之。人食水谷，不过一日，尽泄诸外。我取人内力，则取一分，贮一分，不泄无尽，愈积愈厚，犹北冥天池之巨浸，可浮千里之鲲。” 段誉掩卷凝思：“这门功夫纯系损人利己，将别人辛辛苦苦练成的内力，取来积贮于自身，岂不是如同食人之血肉？又如盘剥重利，搜刮旁人钱财而据为己有？我已答应了神仙姊姊，不练是不成的了，但我此生决不取人内力。” 转念又想：“伯父常说，人生于世，不衣不食，无以为生，而一粥一饭，半丝半缕，尽皆取之于人。取人之物，殆无可免，端在如何报答。取之者寡而报之者厚，那就是了。取于为富不仁之徒，用于贫困无依之辈，非但无愧于心，且是仁人义士的慈悲善举，儒家佛家，其理一般。取民脂民膏以供奉一己之穷奢极欲，是为残民以逞；以之兼善天下，普施于众，则为万家生佛。是以不在取与不取，而在用之为善为恶。”想明白了此节，倒也不觉修习这门功夫是如何不该了。 心下坦然之余，又想：“总而言之，我这一生要多做好事，不做坏事。巨象可负千斤，蝼蚁仅曳一芥，力大则所做好事亦大，做起坏事来也厉害。以南海鳄神的本领，若是专做好事，岂非造福不浅？”想到这里，觉得就算拜了南海鳄神为师，只要专扭坏人的脖子，似乎“这话倒也有理”。 卷轴中此外诸种经脉修习之法甚多，皆是取人内力的法门，段誉虽然自语宽解，总觉习之有违本性，单是贪多务得，便非好事，当下暂不理会。 卷到卷轴末端，又见到了“凌波微步”那四字，登时便想起《洛神赋》中那些句子来：“凌波微步，罗袜生尘……转盼流精，光润玉颜。含辞未吐，气若幽兰。华容婀娜，令我忘餐。”曹子建那些千古名句，在脑海中缓缓流过：“秾纤得衷，修短合度，肩若削成，腰如约素，延颈秀项，皓质呈露，芳泽无加，铅华弗御。云髻峨峨，修眉连娟。丹唇外朗，皓齿内鲜。明眸善睐，辅靥承权。瓌姿艳逸，仪静体闲。柔情绰态，媚于语言……”想到神仙姊姊的姿容体态，“皎若太阳升朝霞，灼若芙蓉出绿波”，但觉依她的吩咐行事，实是人生至乐，当真百死不辞，万劫无悔，心想：“我先来练这'凌波微步'，此乃逃命之妙法，非害人之本领也，练之有百利而无一害。” 卷轴上既绘明步法，又详注六十四卦的方位，他熟习，学起来自不为难。但有时卷轴上步法甚怪，走了上一步后，无法接到下一步，直至想到须得凭空转一个身，这才极巧妙自然的接上了；有时则须跃前纵后、左窜右闪，方合于卷上的步法。他书呆子的劲道一发，遇到难题便苦苦钻研，一得悟解，乐趣之大，实是难以言宣，不禁觉得：“武学之中，原来也有这般无穷乐趣。实不下于读书诵经。” 如此一日过去，卷上的步法已学得了两三成，晚饭过后，再学了十几步，便即上床。迷迷糊糊中似睡似醒，脑子中来来去去的不是少商、膻中、关元、中极诸穴道，便是同人、大有、归妹、未济等易卦。 睡到中夜，猛听到江昂、江昂、江昂几下巨吼，登时惊醒，过不多久，又听得江昂、江昂、江昂几下大吼，声音似是牛吽，却又多了几分凄厉之意，不知是甚么猛兽。他知无量山中颇多毒虫怪兽，听得吼声停歇，便也不以为意，着枕又睡。 却听得隔室有人说道：“这'莽牯朱蛤'已好久没出现了，今晚忽然鸣叫，不知主何吉凶？”另一人道：“咱们东宗落到这步田地，吉是吉不起来的，只要不凶到家，就已谢天谢地了。”段誉知是那两名男弟子郁光标与吴光胜，料来他们睡在隔壁，奉命监视，以防自己逃走。 只听那吴光胜道：“咱们无量剑归属了灵鹫宫，虽然从此受制于人，不得自由，却也得了个大靠山，可说好坏参半。我最气不过的，西宗明明不及我们东宗，干么那位符圣使却要辛师叔作无量洞之主，咱们师父反须听她号令。”郁光标道：“谁教灵鹫宫中自天山童姥以下个个都是女人哪？她们说天下男子没一个靠得住。听说这位符圣使倒是好心，派辛师叔做了咱们头儿，灵鹫宫对无量洞就会另眼相看。你瞧，符圣使对神农帮司空玄何等辣手，对辛师叔的脸色就好得多。”吴光胜道：“郁师哥，这个我可又不明白了。符圣使对隔壁那小子怎地又客客气气？甚么'段相公'、'段相公'的，叫得好不亲热。” 段誉听他们说到自己，更加凝神倾听。 郁光标笑道：“这几句话哪，咱们可只能在这里悄悄的说。一个年轻姑娘，对一个小白脸客客气气，'段相公'、'段相公'的叫……”他说到“段相公”三字时，压紧了嗓子，学着那灵鹫宫姓符圣使的腔调，自行再添上几分娇声嗲气，“……你猜是甚么意思？”吴光胜道：“难道符圣使瞧中了这小白脸？”郁光标道：“小声些，别吵醒了小白脸。”接着笑道：“我又不是符圣使肚里的圣蛔虫，又怎明白她老人家的圣意？我猜辛师叔也是想到了这一着，因此叫咱们好好瞧着他，别让他走了。”吴光胜道：“那可要关他到几时啊？”郁光标道：“符圣使在山峰上说：'辛双清，带了段相公下去，四大恶人若来罗唣，叫他们上缥缈峰灵鹫宫找我。'……”这几句话又是学着那绿衣女子的腔调，“……可是带了段相公下山怎么样？她老人家不说，别人也就不敢问。要是符圣使有一天忽然派人传下话来：'辛双清，把段相公送上灵鹫宫来见我。'咱们却已把这姓段的小白脸杀了，放了，岂不是糟天下之大糕？”吴光胜道：“要是符圣使从此不提，咱们难道把这小白脸在这里关上一辈子，以便随时恭候符圣使号令到来？”郁光标笑道：“可不是吗？” 段誉心里一连串的只叫：“苦也！苦也！”心道：“这位姓符的圣使姊姊尊称我一声'段相公'，只不过见我是读书人，客气三分，你们歪七缠八，又想到哪里去啦？你们就把我关到胡子白了，那位圣使姊姊也决不会再想到我这个老白脸。” 正烦恼间，只听吴光胜道：“咱二人岂不是也要……”突然江昂、江昂、江昂三响，那“莽牯朱蛤”又吼了起来。吴光胜立即住口。隔了好一会，等莽牯朱蛤不再吼叫，他才又说道：“莽牯朱蛤一叫，我总是心惊肉跳，瘟神爷不知这次又要收多少条人命。”郁光标道：“大家说莽牯朱蛤是瘟神爷的坐骑，那也是说说罢啦。文殊菩萨骑狮子，普贤菩萨骑白象，太上老君骑青牛，这莽牯朱蛤是万毒之王，神通广大，毒性厉害，故老相传，就说他是瘟菩萨的坐骑，其实也未必是真的。” 吴光胜道：“郁师兄，你说这莽牯朱蛤到底是甚么样儿。”郁光标笑道：“你想不想瞧瞧。”吴光胜笑道：“那还是你瞧过之后跟我说罢。”郁光标道：“我一见到莽牯朱蛤，毒气立时冲瞎了眼睛，跟着毒质入脑，只怕也没功夫来跟你说这万毒之王的模样儿了。还是咱哥儿俩一起去瞧瞧罢。”说着只听得脚步声响，又是拔下门闩的声音。 吴光胜忙道：“别……别开这玩笑。”话声发颤，抢过去上回门闩，郁光标笑道：“哈哈，我难道真有这胆子去瞧？瞧你吓成了这副德性。”吴光胜道：“这种玩笑还是别开的为妙，莫要当真惹出甚么事来。太太平平的，这就睡罢！” 郁光标转过话题，说道：“你猜干光豪跟葛光佩这对狗男女，是不是逃得掉？”吴光胜道：“隔了这么久还是不见影踪，只怕当真给他们逃掉了。”郁光标道：“干光豪有多大本事，我可知道得一清二楚，这人贪懒好色，练剑又不用心，就只甜嘴蜜舌的骗女人倒有几下散手。大伙儿东南西北都找遍了，连灵鹫宫的圣使也亲自出马，居然仍是给他们溜了，老子就是不信。”吴光胜道：“你不信可也得信啊。” 郁光标道：“我猜这对狗男女定是逃入深山，撞上了莽牯朱蛤。”吴光胜“啊”的一声，大有惊惧之意。郁光标道：“这二人定是尽拣荒僻的地方逃去，一见到莽牯朱蛤，毒气入脑，全身化为一滩脓血，自然影踪全无。”吴光胜道：“你猜的倒也有几分道理。”郁光标道：“甚么几分道理？若不是遇上了莽牯朱蛤，那就岂有此理。”吴光胜道：“说不定他二人耐不住啦，就在荒山野岭里这个那个起来，昏天黑地之际，两人来一招'鲤鱼翻身'，啊哟，乖乖不得了，掉入了万丈深谷。”两人都吃吃吃的淫笑起来。 段誉寻思：“木姑娘在那小饭铺中射死了干葛二人，无量剑的人不会查不到啊。嗯，是了，定是那饭铺老板怕惹祸，快手快脚的将两具尸身埋了。无量剑的人去查问，市集上的人见到他们手执兵器，凶神恶煞的模样，谁也不敢说出来。” 只听吴光胜道：“无量剑东西宗逃走了一男一女两个弟子，也不是甚么大事。皇帝不急太监急，灵鹫宫的圣使又干么这等着紧，非将这二人抓回来不可？”郁光标道：“这你就得动动脑筋，想上一想了。”吴光胜沉默半晌，道：“你知道我的脑筋向来不灵，动来动去，动不出甚么名堂来。” 郁光标道：“我先问你：灵鹫宫要占咱们的无量宫，那为了甚么？”吴光胜道：“听唐师哥说，多半是为了后山的无量玉壁。符圣使一到，三番四次的，就是查问无量玉壁上的仙影啦、剑法啦这些东西。对啦！咱们都遵照符圣使的吩咐，立下了毒誓，玉壁仙影的事，以后谁也不敢泄漏，可是干光豪与葛光佩呢，他们可没立这个誓，既然叛离了本派，那还有不说出去的？”吴光胜一拍大腿，叫道：“对，对！灵鹫宫是要杀了这两个家伙灭口。” 郁光标低声喝道：“别这么嚷嚷的，隔壁屋里有人，你忘了吗？”吴光胜忙道：“是，是。”停了一会，说道：“干光豪这家伙倒是艳福不浅，把葛光佩这白白嫩嫩的小麻皮搂在怀里，这么剥得她白羊儿似的，啧啧啧……他妈的，就算后来化成了一滩脓血，那也……那也……嘿嘿。” 两人此后说来说去，都是些猥亵粗俗的言语，段誉便不再听，可是隔墙的淫猥笑话不绝传来，不听却是不行，于是默想“北冥神功”中的经脉穴道，过不多时，便潜心内想，隔墙之言说得再响，却一个字也听不到了。 次日他又练那“凌波微步”，照着卷中所绘步法，一步步的试演。这步法左歪右斜，没一步笔直进退，虽在室中，只须挪开了桌椅，也尽能施展得开，又学得十来步，蓦地心想：“待会送饭之人进来，我只须这么斜走歪步，立时便绕过了他，抢出门去，他未必能抓得我着。岂不是立刻便可逃走，不用在这屋里等到变成老白脸了？”想到此处，喜不自胜，心道：“我可要练得纯熟无比，只要走错了半步，便给他一把抓住。说不定从此在我脚上加一副铁镣，再用根铁链锁住，那时凌波微步再妙，步来步去总是给铁链拉住了，欲不为老白脸亦不可得矣。”说着脑袋摆了个圈子。 当下将已学会了的一百多步从头至尾默想一遍，心道：“我可要想也不想，举步便对。唉，我段誉这样一个臭男子，却去学那洛神宓妃袅袅娜娜的凌波微步，我又有甚么'罗袜生尘'了？光屁股生尘倒是有的。”哈哈一笑，左足跨出，既踏“中孚”，立转“既济”。不料甫上“泰”位，一个转身，右脚踏上“蛊”位，突然间丹田中一股热气冲将上来，全身麻痹，向前冲出，伏在桌上，再也动弹不得。 他一惊之下，伸手撑桌，想站起身来，不料四肢百骸没一处再听使唤，便要移动一根小指头儿也是不能，就似身处梦魇之中，愈着急，愈使不出半点力道。 他可不知这“凌波微步”乃是一门极上乘的武功，所以列于卷轴之末，原是要待人练成“北冥神功”，吸人内力，自身内力已颇为深厚之后再练。“凌波微步”每一步踏出，全身行动与内力息息相关，决非单是迈步行走而已。段誉全无内功根基，走一步，想一想，退一步，又停顿片刻，血脉有缓息的余裕，自无阻碍。他想熟之后，突然一气呵成的走将起来，体内经脉错乱，登时瘫痪，几乎走火入魔。幸好他没跨得几步，步子又不如何迅速，总算没到绝经断脉的危境。 他惊惶之中，出力挣扎，但越使力，胸腹间越难过，似欲呕吐，却又呕吐不出。他长叹一声，只有不动，这一任其自然，烦恶之感反而渐消。当下便这么一
