Chapter 12 Chapter Eleven
Duan Yu's acupoints were tapped by Jiumozhi, and he couldn't move his whole body. He was straddled on a horse's saddle by several big men, with his face facing down, but he saw the ground kept moving backwards, and the horse's hoof flew, splashing his mouth and nose. It's all mud and dust, and I can hear all the men yelling loudly, saying all kinds of words, and I don't know what to say.He counted the legs of the horses, and there were ten horses in total.
After running for more than ten li, they came to a fork in the road, only heard Jiumozhi mumble a few words, the five horses headed to the left fork in the road, Jiumozhi took Duan Yu and the other three Multiply to the right.After running for several miles, they reached the second fork in the road, and two of the five horses diverged.Duan Yu knew that Jiumozhi wanted to confuse the pursuers, making them not know where to pursue.
After running for a while, Jiumozhi jumped off the horse, took a belt, tied it around Duan Yu's waist, held him in his left hand, and walked through the mountain depression, while the other two men galloped westward.Duan Yu secretly groaned, thinking: "Uncle then sent armored cavalry to chase after him, at most he captured all nine followers of this monk, but he couldn't save me."
Even though Jiumozhi carried a person in his hand, his steps were still very light.He walked higher and higher, and within three hours, he walked through the barren mountains and mountains.Duan Yu saw that the sun was slanting to the west, and it was always shooting from the left, so he knew that Jiumozhi was leading him to the north.
In the evening, Jiumozhi carried him on the branch of a big tree, wrapped his leather belt around the branch, did not say a word to him, and did not even look at him, just turned his back and handed him the A few pieces of dry food bread were given to him, and the acupuncture point on his left forearm was unlocked so that he could eat.Duan Yu secretly stretched out his left hand, hoping to use the Shaoze sword to injure him, but he didn't know that the acupuncture point on his body was blocked, his whole body was blocked, his fingers poked empty-handed, without any internal energy.
For several days, Jiumozhi carried him to the north without stopping.Duan Yu teased him several times, asking him why he caught him and why he took him to the north, but Jiumozhi never answered.Duan Yu was full of resentment, thinking that he was captured by his sister Mu Wanqing that time, even though he suffered more, he would never be so depressed and bored.What's more, to be caught by a beautiful girl, who smells the fragrance a little, and makes it when she is charming, compared to being held in the hands of a deaf and dumb monk, the joy and sorrow are completely different.
After walking like this for more than ten days, it is expected that he has already crossed the border of Dali, Duan Yujue changed his direction to the northeast, still avoided the main road, and always took the road through barren mountains and wild ridges.It's just that the terrain is getting flatter, the mountains are getting less and the water is getting more and more, and there are often several transitions in a day.Finally, Jiumozhi bought two horses to share with Duan Yu, so Duan Yu's big hole was naturally not released for him.
Once when Duan Yu relieved himself, he thought to himself: "If I use 'Lingbo Weibu', this monk may not be able to catch up with me?" But he only took two steps, and his true energy was blocked at the sealed acupuncture point. , immediately fell down.He sighed and got up, knowing that this last road would not work either.
That night, the two stayed overnight in an inn in a small town.Jiumo Zhiming's shop assistant took the paper, ink, brush and inkstone, put it on the table, lit the oil lamp, and waited for the shop assistant to leave the room, and said: "Mr. Duan, my little monk wronged you to come north. I offended you so much. I'm so sorry." Duan Yu said: "It's easy to say, easy to say." Jiumozhi said: "Young Master, do you know what the little monk's intention is?"
Along the way, Duan Yu was only thinking about this matter, seeing the paper, ink, pen and inkstone on the table, he expected nine out of ten, and said: "It can't be done." Jiumozhi asked: "What's the matter?" Can't do it?" Duan Yu said: "You are envious of my Duan family's six-veined sword technique, and you want to force me to write it for you. This matter can't be done."
Jiumozhi shook his head and said: "Young Master Duan may have misunderstood the meaning. The little monk had an appointment with Mr. Murong back then, and wanted to borrow the Six Meridians Divine Sword Sutra of the noble family to show him. This appointment has not been fulfilled, and I have been brooding on it. Fortunately, Duan The young master remembers this scripture in his heart, and he has no choice but to take you to Mr. Murong's tomb and burn it, so that the little monk will not break his trust with the old man. However, the young master is a dragon and a phoenix, and the young monk has no grievances with you, so how dare you be disabled? There is one who can get the best of both worlds. The young master only needs to write out every scripture map without omission, and the monk himself will never take a look at it, seal it immediately, and take it to be cremated in front of Mr. Murong's tomb. If this long-cherished wish is fulfilled, the young master will be sent back to Dali. "
Jiumozhi had said these words when he first entered Tianlong Temple, at that time the original reason and others agreed, and Duan Yu also felt that this method was feasible.But after that, Jiumozhi attacked Emperor Baoding in a sneak attack first, and captured himself later. His attacks were not bright, and he was full of tricks when evading the pursuit. He didn't have the slightest concern for the life and death of the nine subordinates. , how can Duan Yu trust him again?I have long felt in my heart that the "Four Great Evil Men" such as the Crocodile God of the South China Sea are clearly evil men, but they are far higher in character than this Tibetan monk pretending to be a "Holy Monk".Although he has no experience in the world, but in the past 20 days or so, he has already thought about this matter carefully, figured out the key points, and said: "Master Jiumozhi, you can't fool me with your words."
Jiumozhi said together: "Amitabha, I have kept my promise to Mr. Murong and kept it so, how can I break another promise just for this promise?"
Duan Yu shook his head and said: "You said that you made this promise to Mr. Murong back then. No one knows whether it is true or not. You have obtained the Liumai Excalibur sword manual, and you must read it carefully. Whether you want to go to Mr. Murong's tomb for incineration? Who knows? I don’t know. Even if it is really going to be incinerated, with the master’s ingenuity, after reading it several times, how can he not remember it? Maybe he is afraid of making a mistake, so he needs to make a copy and then go to incinerate.”
Jiumozhi's eyes widened brightly, staring at Duan Yu viciously, but in a moment, his face turned kind, and he said slowly: "You and I are both Buddhist disciples, how can you talk so nonsense, sin, sin. Little monk As a last resort, I had no choice but to persecute you a little bit. This is to save your son's life, so don't blame me." He stretched out his left palm, pressed gently on Duan Yu's chest, and said, "When you can't bear it, you are willing to write this sutra. , Just nod your head, and the monk will let go."
Duan Yu smiled wryly and said: "If I don't write this sutra, you will never give up. If you don't want to, you will kill me. If I write it out, how can you allow me to live? I committed suicide by writing the sutra, Master Jiumozhi, this One verse, I figured it out thirteen days ago."
Jiumozhi sighed, and said: "My Buddha is merciful!" The palm of his hand immediately circulated energy, and it was expected that this energy would pass into Duan Yu's Tanzhong acupoint, and his whole body would be like ten thousand ants gnawed, suffering unbearably.This kind of pampered and pampered son, although he speaks hard, when he is really tortured to death, he must give in.Unexpectedly, as soon as the energy was released, I immediately felt a wave of internal energy disappear without a trace.He was startled, and he urged his energy again, this time the internal energy disappeared faster, following the surge of internal energy in his body.Jiumozhi's face turned pale with fright, he rushed out his right palm and pushed hard on Duan Yu's shoulder.With an "ah", Duan Yu fell on the bed, hitting the back of his head hard against the wall.
Jiumozhi knew earlier that Duan Yu had learned the "Great Art of Transformation" of XingXiu's old monster, but since the key acupoints were blocked, he would not be able to perform any kind of martial arts, be it good or evil, but he didn't know that when he sent out his inner strength with his palm, he actually hardened his own inner strength. Squeezing into the opponent's "Tanzhong acupoint", it is like Duan Yu being unable to move his whole body, he opened his mouth wide and let the clam penetrate into his stomach, it has nothing to do with whether the acupoints on his body are sealed or not.
Duan Yu groaned and sat up, and said, "It's useless for you to claim to be an eminent monk. Is that how an eminent monk beats people like this?"
Jiumozhi sternly said: "You 'Great Transformation Technique', who taught you?"
Duan Yu shook his head, and said: "Great transformation of kung fu, tyranny of everything, like throwing thousands of gold to the ground without knowing how to use it for oneself, heresy, ridiculous! Ridiculous!" In these few words, he unknowingly quoted the words written on the silk scroll in the jade cave. written words.
Jiumozhi didn't understand why, but he didn't dare to touch his body again, but before hitting his Shenfeng, Dazhui, Xuanshu, Jingmen acupoints, it didn't hinder him, this man's martial art is really weird, it's really inconceivable, considering this acupoint Kungfu must have evolved from the one-yang finger and the six-meridian sword, but he is just a beginner and doesn't know how to use it yet.As a result, he was fascinated by Duan's martial arts in Dali. He suddenly raised his palm, and with a volley of "flame knife", cut off a piece of the scholar's scarf on Duan Yu's head, and shouted: "You really don't want to write ? My knife only needs to be half a foot low, what will happen to your head?"
Duan Yu was terrified, thinking that if he really got angry, he would blind one of my eyes, or cut off one of my arms, then what should I do?A few words that I pondered over and over along the way immediately came to my mind, and I said it: "If I am forced to write something randomly, it may not be all right. If you maim my limbs, I hate you for cutting my bones. The sword manual I wrote is even more incomprehensible. Well, anyway, you have to take the sword manual I wrote and incinerate it in front of Mr. Murong’s tomb. It's irrelevant. I wrote indiscriminately, but I lied to Mr. Murong's ghost, he practiced in the underworld to become obsessed and killed himself, and he won't blame you." He walked to the table, picked up a pen and spread the paper, I want to write.
Jiumozhi was furious, these few words of Duan Yu completely exposed his intention to defraud himself of the sword manual of the Six Meridians Excalibur, and at the same time made it clear that if he used force to force him, the sword manual he wrote would be incomplete , most of the fake ones are not only useless, but also very harmful to read.He fought swords twice in Tianlong Temple, and it is easy to tell whether the sword technique of the Six Meridians Excalibur is true or not.At the moment, not only was he getting angry from embarrassment, but he was furious. He swung out the "Flame Knife", and with a light chirp sound, the barrel of the pen in Duan Yu's hand broke in two.
Amidst Duan Yu's loud laughter, Jiumozhi shouted: "Thief boy, the Buddha kindly spared your life, but you are obsessed. I can only take you to burn in front of Mr. Murong's tomb. The sword manual you remember in your heart will never be fake. ?”
Duan Yu said with a smile: "When I was dying, I had no choice but to deliberately misremember the sword technique. That's right, that was the idea. From now on, I tried my best to remember the mistakes, and the more I remembered, the more mistakes I made. In the end, even myself It's also nonsense."
Jiumozhi glared angrily, there seemed to be a flaming knife in his eyes that was about to spurt out, he wished that with a wave of his palm, the invisible energy of the "flaming knife" would pass through the boy's head and neck.
From then on, he traveled east all the way for more than twenty days, Duan Yu gradually felt the elegance and softness of the passerby's accent, and there was no chili pepper in the dishes. This day finally arrived outside the city of Suzhou, Duan Yu thought: "We're going to go to Murong Bo's grave now. The monks can't get the sword manual, so they won't kill me, but in front of Murong Bo's tomb, will you kill me?" I burned it, roasted it, and made it half dead, but it didn't fail." I turned my heart, didn't think too much, and looked at the scenery with my eyes.It was the weather in March at this time, with apricot blossoms on the path, green willows hanging down the lake, and the warm spring breeze blowing on my body, I was really drunk.Duan Yu couldn't help feeling relieved, and blurted out: "The waves are misty, Liu Yiyi, the lonely village is far away, and the apricot blossoms are flying in the slanting sun." Jiumozhi sneered and said, "When death is imminent, it's thanks to you that you still have such a leisurely mood, and you can still sing poems and libretto." Duan Yu said with a smile: "The Buddha said: 'The body is impermanent, and impermanence is suffering.' There is no immortal person in the world. .At most, you can only live for a few more years, so what is there to be happy about?" Jiumozhi ignored him, and asked passers-by where "Shenhe Village" was.But he asked seven or eight people in a row, but none of them knew, and the language was not clear, and it was even more troublesome.Finally an old man said: "In and outside of Suzhou city, there is not a Zhuangzi called Canhe Zhuangge. You great monk, you must have misheard." Jiumozhi said: "There is a big village owner named Murong, may I ask?" Where does he live?" The old man said: "At the end of the city of Suzhou, the surnames are Gu, Lu, Shen, Zhang, Zhou, Wen...they are all owners of the big village, how can there be anyone named Murong? I've heard it." Jiumozhi was just ignoring him, when he suddenly heard a person on Xishou Xiaolu say: "I heard that Murong family lives in Yanziwu, thirty miles west of the city, let's go and have a look." Another person said: "Well, we've reached the end of the land , you have to be careful." He spoke with a Henan Zhongzhou accent.The two spoke in a very soft voice, Jiumozhi, who has cultivated his inner strength, could hear clearly, he thought: "Could it be that these two told me on purpose? Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?" Looking sideways, One was tall and handsome, wearing filial piety, while the other was short and thin, like a consumptive pickpocket. With just one glance, Jiumozhi knew that these two people had martial arts, and before he had made up his mind whether to speak to each other, Duan Yu had already called out: "Mr. Huo, Mr. Huo, are you here too?" The one man is Cui Baiquan, the golden abacus, and the other is his nephew, Guo Yanzhi. After the two of them left Dali, they wholeheartedly wanted to avenge Ke Baisui, knowing that Murong's martial arts were extremely high and it would be hard to avenge this revenge, they still came to Suzhou with a lot of courage.He found out that Murong family lives in Yanziwu, but Murong Bo has been dead for many years, so the murderer of Ke Baisui must be another member of Murong's family.The two felt that revenge was a little bit more hopeful, they rushed to the lake, and happened to meet Jiumozhi and Duan Yu. Cui Baiquan suddenly heard Duan Yu's cry, and was stunned, he ran over quickly, and saw a monk riding on the horse, holding the reins of Duan Yu's mount with his left hand, Duan Yu's hands were stiff, hanging by his side, obviously The acupoint was hit, and he wondered: "Little prince, it's you, hey, great monk, why are you making trouble with this young master? Do you know who he is?" Jiumozhi didn't pay much attention to these two people, but he thought that he had never been to the Central Plains, Mr. Murong's home is not easy to find, it would be best if these two people lead the way, he said: "I'm going to Murong's family. In my house, I ask you two to lead the way." Cui Baiquan said: "May I ask you how to address the master? Why dare to offend Duan's young prince? What is the purpose of going to the Murong mansion?" Jiumozhi said: "I will know when the time comes." Cui Baiquan said: "Is the master a friend of the Murong family? " Jiumozhi said: "That's right, where is the Canhe Village where Mr. Murong lives? Huo.Cui Baiquan scratched his scalp, and said to Duan Yu: "Young Lord, I will untie the acupoints on your arm." As he spoke, he walked up a few steps, and stretched out his hand to untie the acupoints for Duan Yu. Duan Yu thought to himself that Jiumozhi's martial art skills are amazingly high, there is no one in this world who can beat him, these two Cui Guos are absolutely no match for him, if they try to rescue each other in vain, they will just lose their lives in vain.It's better to tell the two of them to escape quickly, and said: "Wait a minute! This master is alone, defeated my uncle and five masters from Dali, and captured me. He is a close friend of Mr. Murong, and he wants to arrest me. Mr. Murong's tomb was burned as a sacrifice. The two of you have nothing to do with the Gusu Murong family, so let's go quickly." Cui Baiquan and Guo Yanzhi were shocked when they heard that this monk defeated Emperor Baoding and other experts, and they were even more shocked when they heard that he was a close friend of the Murong family.Cui Baiquan thought to himself that he had been hiding in Zhennan Prince's Mansion for more than ten years, how could he just ignore the little Prince's trouble today?Anyway, since coming to Gusu, this life has long since been risked. It doesn't matter whether he dies under the right abacus or in the hands of others. He immediately reached into his arms, took out a golden abacus, held it high and shook it, With a clattering sound, he said: "Grand Monk, Mr. Murong is your good friend, but this little prince is my good friend. I advise you to let him go." A soft whip wrapped around his waist.The two rushed towards Kumozhima at the same time. Duan Yu shouted: "Hurry up, you two, you can't beat him." Jiumozhi smiled lightly, and said: "Are you really going to do it?" Cui Baiquan said: "This fight is called swatting a fly on the tiger's head. I know I can't beat you, but I have to try it. Life and death... ah, ah Yo!" Before he could say "life and death", Jiumozhi stretched out his hand and snatched Yanzhi's soft whip, followed by a slap, turned over the soft whip, wrapped around the golden abacus in Cui Baiquan's hand, swung the whip, and the two weapons simultaneously He let go of his hands and flew towards the lake on the right, seeing the two weapons were about to sink to the bottom of the lake, but Jiumozhi's strength in his hands was just right, the soft whip tip turned over, just entangled a willow branch hanging on the lake, The willow branches are soft, rising and sinking, shaking constantly.The gold abacus patted the water surface, creating ripples. Jiumozhi clasped his hands together and said, "I'm sorry for your trouble, you two will lead the way." Cui Guo and the two looked at each other, not knowing what to do.Jiumozhi said: "If the two of you don't want to lead the way, please tell me the way to Yanziwu Canhezhuang, and let the young monk find the way to go, that's okay." Cui Guo and the two saw his martial arts so strong, but his demeanor was very humble. Extremely, I don't think it's wrong to turn your face, and it's not right not to turn your face. At this moment, I only heard the sound of Ai Nai, and a small boat floated on the green waves of the lake. A girl in green shirt was paddling slowly with sculls in her hands, singing a little song, which was: "Han There are ten hectares of fragrant lotus, and my sister-in-law is too late to pick lotus. Come late to make water on the beach at the head of the boat, laughing and taking off her red dress to wrap her ducks." The singing is soft and innocent, joyful and heart-warming. When Duan Yu recited the poems and articles of predecessors in Dali, he had long been fascinated by the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River.I saw the young girl's slender hands and bright skin like jade, reflecting the green waves, it was as transparent as it was.Cui Baiquan and Guo Yanzhi couldn't help turning their heads to look at her even though they were facing a formidable enemy. Only Jiumozhi ignored it and listened as if he didn't hear it, and said: "Since the two of you are unwilling to tell the location of Canhe Village, I will take my leave." At this time, the young girl was rowing a small boat and was already near the shore, when she heard Jiumozhi's words, she interjected, "This master is going to participate in Hezhuang Village, what's the matter?" The voice was very sweet and clear, which made people feel uncomfortable. After listening to it, it is indescribably comfortable.This girl is about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a gentle face and a delicate body. Duan Yu thought to himself: "Unexpectedly, a girl from the south of the Yangtze River is so beautiful." In fact, this girl is not very beautiful, she is not as good as Mu Wanqing, but she has eight points of appearance, plus twelve points of gentleness, she is not inferior to ten points. Talented beauties. Jiumozhi said: "My little monk wants to go to Canhe Village, can my lady show you the way?" The girl smiled and said, "No one outside will know the name of Canhe Village. Where did the master hear it from?" Jiumozhi said: "The little monk is Mr. Murong's best friend, and he came here to sacrifice in front of the old friend's grave, to fulfill the old promise. I hope to get to know Mr. Murong, Qing Fan." The girl pondered, "Jiemo is really a coincidence! Mr. Murong was just the day before yesterday. Going out of the son's door, the master came early at the end of three days, and you met the young master." Jiumozhi said: "Being close to the young master makes people feel melancholy, but the young monk came all the way from Tubo to China. I paid homage to Mr. Murong's tomb to fulfill my wish." The young girl said: "Master is a good friend of Mr. Murong, please go and have a cup of tea first, and then I will deliver the report to you, what do you say (speak left and right)? Jiumozhi said: "Who is the young lady in the son's house? What should I call her?" The girl smiled sweetly and said: "Ah, I am a little girl who serves the young master to play the piano and play the flute. My name is Abi. Don't ask me to be polite like a big lady or a little lady. It's good to call me Abi!" She took a mouthful of Suzhou soil. Bai, it was difficult to understand at first, but she is a maidservant of a martial arts family, she thinks she has heard a lot of official language, so she tried to add some official language in her speech, Jiumozhi and Duan Yu can barely understand it.At that moment Jiumozhi said respectfully: "Don't dare!" Just make it cool.) Abi said: "It's all waterways to go to Yanziwu Qinyun Xiaozhu. If all of these people want to go, I'll see you off by boat, okay (cut left and right)?" Cutting)" are all diligent inquiries and soft-spoken discussions, which are hard to refuse. Jiumozhi said: "It's really hard work." He took Duan Yu's hand and lightly jumped onto the boat.The boat only sank a little, but it didn't wobble at all.Abi smiled slightly at Jiumozhi and Duan Yu, as if to say: "What a skill!" Guo Yanzhi said in a low voice: "Master Uncle, what's the matter?" The two of them came to seek revenge on Murong, but it was really embarrassing to be in such a mess. Abi smiled and said: "The two uncles are coming to Suzhou. If you have any important matters, Jiemo, please come to our place for a cup of tea and some snacks. Don't think this boat is small, it will take a few people to sit. Don't get lost." She paddled the boat lightly, came under the willow tree, stretched out her slender hands to put away the abacus and soft whip, and played with the beads casually, making a loud clank. Duan Yu only listened to a few times, and said happily: "Girl, are you playing 'Picking Mulberry'?" It turned out that she fiddled with the beads casually, with a rhythm of severity and rhythm, and unexpectedly there were two crisp and smart "Picking Mulberries" ".Abi smiled sweetly and said: "My lord, you are proficient in rhythm, do you want to play a piece too?" Duan Yu saw that she was innocent and kind, and said with a smile: "I don't know how to play abacus." Turning to Cui Baiquan, he said: "Huo Sir, people have played your calculations so nicely." Cui Baiquan smiled shyly, and said: "That's right, that's good. The girl is really elegant. My most vulgar family background, in the girl's hands, becomes a musical instrument." Abi said: "Ah, I'm really sorry. , Is this Mr. Huo’s? This abacus is really well made. You must have copper coins in your house, and even the abacus is made of gold. Mr. Huo, I still call you carefully.” Holding the abacus in her left hand, she stretched her arms .Cui Baiquan was on the shore and couldn't get it, and he was really reluctant to part with this old friend who never left him for a moment, so he stepped lightly, got on the bow, reached out to take the abacus, turned his head and glared at Jiumozhi.Jiumozhi always had a kind smile on his face, without any trace of anger. Holding the soft whip in her left hand, Abi raised the tip of the whip, and stretched the five fingers of her right hand down on the whip. Her fingernails touched the raised edges and corners of the soft whip, and she immediately sent out ding, ling, dong, and long. the sound of.She stretched her five fingers like this, just like trying a new pipa, a weapon that has fought all over the world, black and white heroes, became a musical instrument again in her white and soft hands. Duan Yu shouted: "Wonderful, wonderful! Girl, just play it." Abi said to Guo Yanzhi: "This soft whip belongs to this old man? Thank you. Master, you can come on the boat too, and I will make you eat fresh red water chestnut after a while." Guo Yanzhi felt a grudge against his teacher and hated Gusu Murong's family to the bone, but seeing this little girl's smile was so innocent and innocent. , although he was full of hatred, it was difficult to get angry at her, thinking: "It would be the best if she led me to the village. Anyway, I have to kill a few of them first to avenge my teacher." to the boat. Abi rolled up the soft whip well and handed it to Guo Yanzhi, the wooden oar was pulled, and the boat slid westward. Cui Baiquan and Guo Yanzhi exchanged a few glances, thinking: "Today I went deep into the tiger's lair, I don't know how to live or die. Murong's attack is extremely vicious, this little girl is gentle and gentle, it seems true, but I don't know that it is not the trick of Murong's proud enemy ? Teach us to take precautions, so he can take the opportunity to attack." Boating on the lake, after a few turns, it turned into a big lake. Looking far away, you can see the vast mist, and the distant water reaches the sky.Guo Yanzhi was even more shocked: "This big lake must be Taihu Lake. Uncle Cui and I can't swim, this little girl only needs to capsize the boat, and we two will sink into the lake to feed the fish and turtles, and say Why avenge the teacher?" Cui Baiquan also thought of this episode, thinking that if he could hold the wooden oar in his hand, the little girl would want to capsize the boat, but it would not be so easy, so he said: "Girl, I will row the boat for you, you just need to Just pointing out the direction." Abi laughed and said, "Ah, Jie Mo dare not be the one. If my son knows about him, he will definitely scold me for neglecting the guests." Seeing that she refused, Cui Baiquan was even more suspicious, and said with a smile: "It's not true. To be honest, we want to hear the girl's unique skill in playing music on the soft whip. We are rough people, but this Mr. Duan is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is good at everything." Abi glanced at Duan Yu, and said with a smile: "I play a good white face, what kind of special skill is it? Mr. Duan is so elegant, listening to his smile, laughing so happy, I don't want to come." Cui Baiquan took the soft whip from Guo Yanzhi, handed it to her, and said: "You play, you play!" while taking the wooden oar from her hand.Abi smiled and said: "Okay, let me give you a break for your golden abacus." Cui Baiquan secretly felt fear: "She wants to take away both of our weapons, is there some conspiracy?" In the meantime, it was already inconvenient to refuse, so I had to hand her the golden abacus.Abi put the abacus on the boat board in front of her, held the handle of the soft whip with her left hand, lightly stepped on the head of the whip with her left foot, and pulled the soft whip straight, and flicked the wheel with five fingers of her right hand, the soft whip immediately made a ding-dong sound, Although it is not as complex and clear as the pipa, it is more refreshing. When Abi flicked and wiped with five fingers, she still had time to fiddle with the golden abacus with her fingers, the clank of the abacus beads was interspersed with the Ding Ding of the soft whip, adding to the clear rhythm.At this moment, two swallows were seen flying past the bow of the ship and drifting westward.Duan Yu thought: "The place Murong lives is called Yanziwu, there must be a lot of swallows." I can only hear Abi singing in a rambling voice: "The two community have a good time, a thousand families courtyard, and see the double flying swallows. The phoenix's nest is stable and promises to be neighbors, how late will the Xiaoxiang smoke come? Enter the red building in disorder, fly low to the green bank, and the painted beams blow the singing dust Turn. For whom do you go back and for whom do you come? The master is very kind to you." When Duan Yu heard her singing so softly, he couldn't help but be moved, thinking: "If I live in the southern border all my life, how can I listen to this fairy music?" .'Mr. Murong has a maid like this, so he is a very special person." After finishing the song, Abi returned the abacus and the soft whip to Cui Guo and the two, and said with a smile: "Your singing is not good, please don't laugh. Mr. Huo, go to the small harbor on the left, that's right!" Cui Baiquan was relieved to see her handing back the weapon, and immediately rowed the boat into a small harbor as he said, but saw that the water was covered with lotus leaves, if she hadn't pointed it out, he would never have known that there was a passage between the lotus leaves.Cui Baiquan paddled for a while, and Abi pointed out the waterway again: "Paddle from here." The water surface here is full of water chestnut leaves and red water chestnuts. In the clear waves, the red water chestnuts and green leaves are very colorful.Abi picked the red water chestnuts and distributed them to everyone. Although Duan Yu can move his hands, he has no strength after the acupoints are touched, and he can't even peel off the hard skin of a red water chestnut.Abi laughed and said, "Master, don't be from Jiangnan, don't know how to peel water chestnuts, I will let you peel them." Peel several water chestnuts in succession and put them in his palm.Duan Yu saw that the skin and flesh of the water chestnut were smooth and clean, and when he put it into his mouth, the sweetness was crisp and sweet, he said with a smile: "The taste of this water chestnut is clear but not greasy, just like a little song sung by a girl." Abi's face slightly Yihong smiled and said: "Compare my song to Hongling, it's the first time I've heard it today, thank you sir!" Before the Lingtang was over, Abi guided the boat through a clump of reeds and wild rice shoots.As a result, even Jiumozhi became wary, and secretly remembered the boat's origin, so as not to get lost when going back and forth, but at a glance, the lotus leaves, water chestnut leaves, reeds, and wild rice stems all over the lake were all exactly the same, and the lotus leaves were all the same. Leafs and rhombus leaves float on the water surface, and when a gust of wind blows at any time, they will change a lot. Even if you remember it clearly at this moment, the situation will be completely different in an instant.Jiumozhi, Cui Baiquan, and Guo Yanzhi kept looking at Abi's eyes, trying to see her way and direction from her eyes.But she just casually picked water chestnuts to divert the water, and guided them casually, as if the many criss-crossing water channels, like a chessboard, were as clear as the palm lines in her palm, and she knew them from birth, so she didn't need to identify them. After drawing zigzags like this for more than two hours, at the end of the day, I saw a cornice in the distance among the green willow bushes in the distance.Abi said: "It's here! Uncle Huo! You are so tired that you rowed the boat for half a day." Cui Baiquan said with a wry smile: "As long as there are red water chestnuts to eat and clear songs to listen to, I will row him like this for ten or eight years. Not tired either." Abi clapped her hands and laughed, "You want to listen to songs and eat water chestnuts, and Jiemo makes lunch? It's good not to go out in this lake for the rest of your life!" When Cui Baiquan heard her say "don't go out in this lake for the rest of your life", he couldn't help being startled, and looked at her with squinted eyes for a while, but seeing that she seemed to have no intention of smiling, he couldn't feel relieved.
Abi took the wooden oar and rowed the boat straight to the shade of willows. Nearby, she saw a wooden ladder made of pine branches hanging down to the water.Abi tied the boat to the branch, and suddenly heard a bird on the willow branch "Sasa Dusa, Sasa Dusa" with a clear and clear voice.Abi imitated the song of a bird, and also called a few times, turned her head and said with a smile: "Please go ashore!" Everyone stepped ashore one by one, and saw four or five houses scattered here and there, built on an unknown island or peninsula.The house is small and exquisite, quite elegant.The word "Qin Yun" is written on the plaque of Xiaoshe, which is quite chic.Jiumozhi said: "Is this the Yanziwu Canhe Village?" Abi shook her head and said, "No. This is the place where the young master gave me to live. It's a small place, and it really can't receive distinguished guests. But this master said he would go to pay his respects. I can't be the master of offering sacrifices to Master Murong's tomb, so I have to ask a few of you to wait here, and I'll ask Sister Azhu." When Jiumozhi heard this, he felt angry and his face sank slightly.He is the protector of the Tubo Kingdom, how respectful is he?Not to mention being respected by the ruler in the Tubo Kingdom, even in the courts of Song, Dali, Liao, and Xixia, the monarchs of all countries must treat him as a distinguished guest, not to mention that he is an old friend of Mr. Murong, This visit to the tomb, Mr. Murong didn't know beforehand and went out, so that's fine, but this servant didn't invite him to the main hall and guest room for a grand reception, but took him to a small servant's courtyard, it's really irritating .But when he saw Abi's smiling face, he didn't mean to be contemptuous, he thought: "This little girl doesn't understand anything, why should I have the same knowledge as her." Thinking of this verse, he felt calm. Cui Baiquan asked, "Who is your sister Azhu?" Abi laughed and said, "Azhu is just Azhu. Yi is only a month older than me, so Jiemo puts on the airs of a sister. My name is Sister Yi. , Jie Mo called it a no-brainer, who will teach Yi to teach me for a month? You don’t need to call Yi sister, if you call Yi sister Mo, Yi will be more proud.” She giggled and said, The voice is clear and soft, like playing an orchestra, leading the four of them into the house. In the living room, Ah Bi invited the guests to sit down, and then a servant served tea and pastries.Duan Yu picked up the tea bowl, and there was a burst of fragrance. He lifted the lid and saw dark green tea leaves floating in the light green tea water, like small beads, full of fine fluff.Duan Yu had never seen it before. After taking a sip, he felt the fragrance in his mouth and the bottom of his tongue produced fluid.Jiumozhi, Cui and Guo saw the strangeness of the tea, so they didn't dare to drink it.This bead-shaped tea is a special product of the mountains near Taihu Lake. Later generations called it "Biluochun". This elegant name did not exist in the Northern Song Dynasty.Jiumozhixiang lived in the Western Regions and the mountains of Tubo, he was used to drinking bitter black tea, seeing this kind of dark green hairy tea, he couldn't help but suspect that it was poisonous. The four-color desserts are rose pine nut candy, tuckahoe soft cake, emerald sweet cake, lotus root powder and ham dumpling. They are elegantly shaped, and each piece of cake seems not to be made for eating, but for enjoying. Duan Yu praised: "These dim sum are so delicate, the taste must be absolutely delicious, but why are people willing to open their mouths to eat them?" One praise one, happy life.Jiumozhi and Cui Guo still dare not eat it.Duan Yu became suspicious: "This Jiumozhi claims to be Murong Bo's friend, why is he always on guard? And Murong Manor's reception of him seems not quite right." Jiumozhi's patience was really amazing, he waited for a long time, after Duan Yu had tasted all the tea and cakes, and praised him enough, he said: "Then please tell your sister Ah Zhu." Abi smiled and said: "Ah Zhu's Zhuangzi is four or nine waterways away from here. It's too late to go now. The four of you will stay here for one night. In the early morning of tomorrow, I will send the four of you to 'Listen to the Perfume Pavilion'." Cui Baiquan asked: "What is the four-nine waterway?" Abi said: "Ninety-nine is nine miles, two-ninety-eight miles, and four-nine is thirty-six miles. You can figure it out with your abacus." It turns out that in the Jiangnan area, when it comes to distance, there are always It is the calculation of one nine and twenty nine. Jiumozhi said: "If I had known this before, wouldn't it be a pleasure for the girl to send us to the Perfume Pavilion?" Abi laughed and said, "Here, if people don't gossiping with me, I'll be bored very quickly. After all, a few came here. Guest, how many flowers do you like? Jiemo will keep you two to stay for a day." Guo Yanzhi had been sullen and silent all this time, at this moment he suddenly stood up and shouted: "Where do the relatives of Murong's family live? I came to Canhezhuang after passing Yanshang, not to drink tea and eat, let alone to laugh with you, but to kill people." Those who took revenge and bleed to death. Even though the surname Guo came here, he didn’t want to come out of this village again. Girl, please go and tell me that I am a disciple of Ke Baisui of the Funiu School, and today I am here to avenge my master!" said softly With a flick of the whip and a crackling sound, a red sandalwood coffee table and a Xiangfei bamboo chair were smashed into pieces. Abi was neither frightened nor angry, and said: "There are always a few cases every month when heroes and heroes in the world come to visit your son, and there are also many uncles who are so tyrannical and vicious. My little girl is not frightened." ..." Before she finished speaking, an old man with silver beard and hair turned out from the back hall, holding a cane in his hand, and said, "Abi, who is yelling here?" She spoke in official Chinese, and her voice was very strange. pure. 崔百泉纵身离椅，和过彦之并肩而立，喝问：“我师兄柯百岁到底是死在谁的手下？” 段誉见这老人弓腰曲背，满脸都是皱纹，没九十也有八十岁，只听他嘶哑着嗓子说道：“柯百岁，柯百岁，嗯，年纪活到一百岁，早就该死啦！” 过彦之一到苏州，立时便想到慕容氏家中去大杀大砍一场，替恩师报仇，只是给鸠摩智夺去兵刃，折了锐气，再遇上阿碧这样天真可爱的一个小姑娘，满腔怨愤，无可发泄，这时听这老人说话无礼，软鞭挥出，鞭头便点向他背心。他见鸠摩智坐在西首，防他出手干预，这一鞭便从东边挥击过去。 哪知鸠摩智手臂一伸，掌心中如有磁力，远远的便将软鞭抓了过去，说道：“过大侠，咱们远来是客，有话可说，不必动武。”将软鞭卷成一团，还给了他。 过彦之满脸胀得通红，接又不是，不接又不是，转念心想：“今日报仇乃是大事，宁可受一时之辱，须得有兵刃在手。”便伸手接了。 鸠摩智向那老人道：“这位施主尊姓大名？是慕容先生的亲戚，还是朋友？”那老人裂嘴一笑，说道：“老头儿是公子爷的老仆，有什么尊姓大名？听说大师父是我们故世的老爷好朋友，不知有什么吩咐。”鸠摩智道：“我的事要见到公子后当面奉告。”那老人道：“那可不巧了，公子爷前天动身出门，说不定哪一天才回来。”鸠摩智问道：“公子去了何处？”那老人侧过了头，伸手敲敲自己的额角，道：“这个么，我可老糊涂了，好像是去西夏国，又说什么辽国，也说不定是吐蕃，要不然便是大理。” 鸠摩智哼了一声，心中不悦，当时天下五国分峙，除了当地是大宋所辖，这老人却把其余四国都说全了。他明知这老人是假装胡涂，说道：“既是如此，我也不等公子回来了，请管家带我去慕容先生墓前一拜，以尽故人之情。” 那老人双手乱摇，说道：“这个我可作不起主，我也不是什么管家。”鸠摩智道：“那么尊府的管家是谁？请出来一见。”那老人连连点头，说道：“很好！很好！我去请管家来。”转过身子，摇摇摆摆的走了出去，自言自语：“这个年头儿啊，世上什么坏人都有，假扮了和尚道士，便想来化缘骗人。我老头儿什么没见过，才不上这个当呢。” 段誉哈哈一声，笑了出来。阿碧忙向鸠摩智道：“大师父，你勿要生气，老黄伯伯是个老胡涂。他自以为聪明，不过说话总归要得罪人。” 崔百泉拉拉过彦之的衣袖，走到一旁，低声道：“这贼秃自称是慕容家的朋友，但这儿明明没将他当贵客看待。咱们且别莽撞，瞧个明白再说。”过彦之道：“是！”两人回归原座。但过彦之本来所坐的那只竹椅已给他自己打碎，变成了无处可坐。阿碧将自己的椅子端着送过去，微笑道：“过大爷，请坐！”过彦之点了点头，心想：“我纵能将慕容氏一家杀得干干净净，这个小丫头也得饶了。” 段誉当那老仆进来之时，隐隐约约觉得这件事十分别扭，显得非常不对，但什么事情不对，却全然说不上来。他仔细打量这小厅中的陈设家具，庭中花木，壁上书画，再瞧阿碧、鸠摩智、崔百泉、过彦之四个人，什么特异之处都没有发现，心中却越来越觉异样。 过了半晌，只听得脚步声响，内堂走出一个五十来岁的瘦子，脸色焦黄，颏下留一丛山羊短须，一副精明能干的模样，身上衣着颇为讲究，左手小指戴一枚汉玉班指，看来便是慕容府中的管家了。这瘦子向鸠摩智等行礼，说道：“小人孙三拜见各位。大师父，你老人家要到我们老爷墓前去拜祭，我们实在感激之至。可是公子爷出门去了，没人还礼，太也不够恭敬。待公子爷回来，小人定将大师父这番心意转告便是……” 他说到这里，段誉忽然闻到一阵淡淡的香气，心中一动：“奇怪，奇怪。” 当先前那老仆来到小厅，段誉便闻到一阵幽雅的香气。这香气依稀与木婉清身上的体香有些相似，虽然颇为不同，然而总之是女儿之香。起初段誉还道这香气发自阿碧身上，也不以为意，可是那老仆一走出厅堂，这股香气就此消失，待那自称为孙三的管家走进厅来，段誉又闻到了这股香气，这才领会到，先前自己所以大觉别扭，原来是为了在一个八九十岁老公公身上，闻到了十七八岁小姑娘的体香，寻思：“莫非后堂种植了什么奇花异卉，有谁从后堂出来，身上便带有幽香？要不然那老仆和这瘦子都是女子扮的。” 这香气虽令段誉起疑，其实气息极淡极微，鸠摩智等三人半点也没察觉。段誉所以能够辨认，只因他曾与木婉清在石屋中经历了一段奇险的时刻，这淡淡的处女幽香，旁人丝毫不觉，于他却是铭心刻骨，比什么麝香、檀香、花香还更强烈得多。鸠摩智内功虽然深厚，但一生严守色戒，红颜绿鬓，在他眼中只是白骨骷髅，香粉胭脂，于他鼻端直同脓血秽臭，浑不知男人女子体气之有异。 段誉虽疑心孙三是女子所扮，但瞧来瞧去，委实无半点破绽，此人不但神情举止全是男人，而且形貌声音亦无丝毫女态。忽然想起：“女人要扮男人，这喉结须假装不来。”凝目向孙三喉间瞧去，只见他山羊胡子垂将下来，刚好挡住了喉头。段誉站起身来，假意观赏壁上的字画，走到孙三侧面，斜目偷睨，但见他喉头毫无突起之状，又见他胸间饱满，虽不能就此说是女子，但这样精瘦的一个男人，胸间决不会如此肌肉丰隆。段誉发觉了这个秘密，甚觉有趣，心想：“好戏还多着呢，且瞧她怎生做下去。” 鸠摩智叹道：“我和你家老爷当年在川边相识，谈论武功，彼此佩服，结成了好友。没想到天妒奇才，似我这等庸碌之辈，兀自在世上偷生，你家老爷却遽赴西方极乐。我从吐蕃国来到中土，只不过为了故友情重，要去他墓前一拜，有没有人还礼，那又打什么紧？相烦管家领路便是。”孙三皱起眉头，显得十分为难，说道：“这个……这个……”鸠摩智道：“不知这中间有何为难之处，倒要请教。” 孙三道：“大师父既是我家老爷生前的至交好友，自必知道老爷的脾气。我家老爷最怕有人上门拜访，他说来到我们府中的，不是来寻仇生事，便是来拜师求艺，更下一等的，则是来打抽丰讨钱，要不然是混水摸鱼，顺手牵羊，想偷点什么东西去。他说和尚尼姑更加靠不住，啊哟……对不住……”他说到这里，警觉这几句话得罪了鸠摩智，忙伸手按住嘴巴。 这副神气却全然是个少女的模样，睁着圆圆的眼睛，乌黑的眼珠骨溜溜的一转，虽然立即垂下眼皮，但段誉一直就在留心，不由得心中一乐：“这孙三不但是女子，而且还是个年轻姑娘。”斜眼瞧阿碧时，见她唇角边露出一丝狡狯的微笑，心下更无怀疑，暗想：“这孙三和那老黄明明便是一人，说不定就是那个阿朱姊姊。” 鸠摩智叹道：“世人险诈者多而诚信者少，慕容先生不愿多跟俗人结交，确然也是应当的。”孙三道：“是啊。我家老爷遗言说道：如果有谁要来祭坟扫墓，一概挡驾。他说道：'这些贼秃啊，多半没安着好心，定是想掘我的坟墓。'啊哟，大师父，你可别多心，我家老爷骂的贼秃，多半并不是说你。” 段誉暗暗好笑：“所谓'当着和尚骂贼秃'，当真是半点也不错。”又想：“这个贼秃仍然半点不动声色，越是大奸大恶之人，越沉得住气。这贼秃当真是非同小可之辈。” 鸠摩智道：“你家老爷这几句遗言，原很有理。他生前威震天下，结下的仇家太多。有人当他在世之时奈何他不得，报不了仇，在他死后想去动他遗体，倒也不可不防。” 孙三道：“要动我家老爷的遗体，哈哈，那当真是'老猫闻咸鱼'了。”鸠摩智一怔，问道：“什么'老猫闻咸鱼'？”孙三道：“这叫做'嗅鲞啊嗅鲞'，就是'休想啊休想'！”鸠摩智道：“嗯，原来如此。我和慕容先生知己交好，只是在故人墓前一拜，别无他意，管家不必多疑。” 孙三道：“实实在在，这件事小人作不起主，若是违背了老爷遗命，公子爷回家后查问起来，可不要打折小人的腿么？这样罢，我去请老太太拿个主意，再来回复如何？”鸠摩智道：“老太太？是哪一位老太太？”孙三道：“慕容老太太，是我家老爷的叔母。每逢老爷的朋友们到来，都是要向她磕头行礼的。公子不在家，什么事便都得请示老太太了。”鸠摩智道：“如此甚好，请你向老太太禀告，说是吐蕃国鸠摩智向老夫人请安。”孙三道：“大师父太客气了，我们可不敢当。”说着走进内堂。 段誉寻思：“这位姑娘精灵古怪，戏弄鸠摩智这贼秃，不知是何用意？” 过了好一会，只听得珮环玎当，内堂走出一位老夫人来，人未到，那淡淡的幽香已先传来。段誉禁不住微笑，心道：“这次却扮起老夫人来啦。”只见她身穿古铜缎子袄裙，腕戴玉镯，珠翠满头，打扮得雍容华贵，脸上皱纹甚多，眼睛迷迷蒙蒙的，似乎已瞧不见东西。段誉暗暗喝采：“这小妮子当真了得，扮什么，像什么，更难得的是，她只这么一会儿便即改装完毕，手脚之利落，令人叹为观止矣。” 那老夫人撑着拐杖，颤巍巍的走到堂上，说道：“阿碧，是你家老爷的朋友来了么？怎不向我磕头？”脑袋东转西转，像是两眼昏花，瞧不见谁在这里。阿碧向鸠摩智连打手势低声道：“快磕头啊，你一磕头，太夫人就高兴了，什么事都能答允。”老夫人侧过了头，伸手掌张在耳边，以便听得清楚些，大声问道：“小丫头，你说什么？人家磕头了没有？” 鸠摩智道：“老夫人，你好，小僧给你老人家行礼了。”深深长揖，双手发劲，砖头上登时发出咚咚之声，便似是磕头一般。 崔百泉和过彦之对望一眼，均自骇然：“这和尚的内劲如此了得，咱们只怕在他手底走不了一招。” 老夫人点点头，说道：“很好，很好！如今这世界上奸诈的人多，老实的人少，就是磕一个头，有些坏胚子也要装神弄鬼，明明没磕头，却在地下弄出咚咚的声音来，欺我老太太瞧不见。你小娃儿很好，很乖，磕头磕得响。” 段誉忍不住嘿的一声，笑了出来。老夫人慢慢转过头来，说道：“阿碧，是有人放了个屁么？”说着伸手在鼻端扇动。阿碧忍笑道：“老太太，不是的。这段公子笑了一声。”老夫人道：“断了，什么东西断了？”阿碧道：“不是断了，人家是姓段，段家的公子。”老夫人点头道：“嗯，公子长公子短的，你从朝到晚，便是记挂着你家公子。”阿碧脸上一红，说道：“老太太耳朵勿灵，讲闲话要牵丝扳藤？” 老夫人向着段誉道：“你这娃娃，见了老太太怎不磕头？”段誉道：“老太太，我有句话想跟你说。”老夫人问道：“你说什么？”段誉道：“我有一个侄女儿，最是聪明伶俐不过，可是却也顽皮透顶。她最爱扮小猴儿玩，今天扮公的，明儿扮母的，还会把戏呢。老太太见了她一定欢喜。可惜这次没带她来向你老人家磕头。” 这老夫人正是慕容府中另一个丫头阿朱所扮。她乔装改扮之术神乎其技，不但形状极似，而言语举止，无不毕肖，可说没半点破绽，因此以鸠摩智之聪明机智，崔百泉之老于江湖，都没丝毫疑心，不料段誉却从她身上无法掩饰的一些淡淡幽香之中发觉了真相。 阿朱听他这么说，吃了一惊，但丝毫不动声色，仍是一副老态龙钟、耳聋眼花的模样，说道：“乖孩子，乖孩子，真聪明，我从来没见过像你这么精乖的孩子。乖孩子别多口，老太太定有好处给你。” 段誉心想：“她言下之意要我不可揭穿她底细，她在对付鸠摩智这贼秃，那是朋友而非敌人。”便道：“老夫人尽可放心，在下既到尊府，一切但凭老夫人吩咐便是。” 阿朱说道：“你听我话，那才是乖孩子啊。好，先对老婆婆磕上三个响头，我决计不会亏待了你。” 段誉一怔，心道：“我是堂堂大理国的皇太弟世子，岂能向你一个小丫头磕头？” 阿朱见他神色尴尬，嘿嘿冷笑，说道：“乖孩子，我跟你说，还是向奶奶磕几个头来得便宜。” 段誉一转头，只见阿碧抿着嘴，笑吟吟的斜眼瞅着自己，肤白如新剥鲜菱，嘴角边一粒细细的黑痣，更增俏媚，不禁心中一动，问道：“阿碧姊姊，听说尊府还有一位阿朱姊姊，她……她可是跟你一般美丽俊雅么？”阿碧微笑道：“啊哟！我这种丑八怪算得啥介？阿朱姊姊倘使听得你直梗问法，一定要交关勿开心哉。我怎么比得上人家，阿朱姊姊比我齐整十倍。”段誉道：“当真？”阿碧笑道：“骗你做啥？”段誉道：“比你俊美十倍，世上当无其人，除非是……除非是那位玉洞仙子。只要跟你差不多，已是少有的美人了。”阿碧红晕上颊，羞道：“老夫人叫你磕头，啥人要你瞎三话四的讨好我？” 段誉道：“老夫人本来必定也是一位国色天香的美人。老实说，对我有没有好处，我段誉倒也没怎么放在心上，但对美人儿磕几个头，倒也是心甘情愿的。”说着便跪了下去，心想：“既然磕头，索性磕得响些，我对那个洞中玉像已磕了几千几百个头，对一位江南美人磕上三个头，又有何妨？”当下咚咚咚的磕了三个响头。 阿朱十分欢喜，心道：“这位公子爷明知我是个小丫头，居然还肯向我磕头，当真十分难得。”说道：“乖孩子，很好，很好。可惜我身边没带见面钱……”阿碧抢着道：“老太太勿要忘记就是啦，下趟补给人家也是一样。” 阿朱白了她一眼，向崔百泉和过彦之道：“这两位客人怎不向老婆子磕头见礼？”过彦之哼了一声，粗声粗气的道：“你会武功不会？”阿朱道：“你说什么？”过彦之道：“我问你会不会武功。倘若武功高强，姓过的在慕容老夫人手底领死！如不是武林中人，也不必跟你多说什么。”阿朱摇头道：“什么蜈蚣百脚？蜈蚣自然是有的，咬人很痛呢。”向鸠摩智道：“大和尚，听说你想去瞧我侄儿的坟墓，你要偷盗什么宝贝啊？” 鸠摩智虽没瞧出她是少女假扮，却也已料到她是装聋作哑，决非当真老得胡涂了，心底增多了几分戒备之意，寻思：“慕容先生如此了得，他家中的长辈自也非泛泛。”当下装作没听见“掘墓”的话，说道：“小僧与慕容先生是知交好友，闻知他逝世的噩耗，特地从吐蕃国赶来，要到他墓前一拜。小僧生前曾与慕容先生有约，要取得大理段氏六脉神剑的剑谱，送与慕容先生一观。此约不践，小僧心中有愧。” 阿朱与阿碧对看了一眼，均想：“这和尚终于说上正题啦。”阿朱道：“六脉神剑剑谱取得了怎样？取不到又怎样？”鸠摩智道：“当年慕容先生与小僧约定，只须小僧取得六脉神剑剑谱给他观看几天，就让小僧在尊府'还施水阁'看几天书。”阿朱一凛：“这和尚竟知道'还施水阁'的名字，那么或许所言不虚。”当下假装胡涂，问道：“什么'稀饭水饺'？你要香梗米稀饭、鸡汤水饺么？那倒容易，你是出家人，吃得荤腥么？” 鸠摩智转头向阿碧道：“这位老太太也不知是真胡涂，还是假胡涂，如此拒人于千里之外，岂不令人心冷？” 阿朱道：“嗯，你的心凉了。阿碧，你去做碗热热的鸡鸭血汤，给大师父暖暖心肺。”阿碧忍笑道：“大师父勿吃荤介。”阿朱点头道：“那么不要用真鸡真鸭，改用素鸡素鸭好了。”阿碧道：“老太太，勿来事格，素鸭呒不血的。”阿朱道：“那怎么办呢？” 两个小姑娘一搭一档，尽是胡扯。苏州人大都伶牙利齿，后世苏州评弹之技名闻天下，便由于此。这两个小丫头平素本是顽闹说笑惯了的，这时作弄得鸠摩智直是无法可施。 他此番来到姑苏，原盼见到慕容公子后商议一件大事，哪知正主儿见不着，所见到之人一个个都缠夹不清，若有意，若无意，虚虚实实，令他不知如何着手才好。他略一凝思，已断定慕容老夫人、孙三、黄老仆、阿碧等人，都是意在推搪，既不让自己祭墓，当然更不让进入“还施水阁”观看武学秘籍，眼下不管他们如何装腔作势，自当先将话儿说明白了，此后或以礼相待，或恃强用武，自己都是先占住了道理，当下心平气和的道：“这六脉神剑剑谱，小僧是带来了，因此斗胆要依照旧约，到尊府'还施水阁'去观看图书。” 阿碧道：“慕容老爷已经故世哉。一来口说无凭，二来大师父带来这本剑谱，我们这里也呒不啥人看得懂，从前就算有啥旧约，自然是一概无效的了。”阿朱道：“什么剑谱？在哪里？先给我瞧瞧是真还是假的。” 鸠摩智指着段誉道：“这位段公子的心里，记得全套六脉神剑剑谱，我带了他人来，就同是带了剑谱来一样。”阿碧微笑道：“我还道真有什么剑谱呢，原来大师父是说笑的。”鸠摩智道：“小僧何敢说笑？那六脉神剑的原本剑谱，已在大理天龙寺中为枯荣大师所毁，幸好段公子原原本本的记得。”阿碧道：“段公子记得，是段公子的事，就算是到'还施水阁'看书，也应当请段公子去。同大师有啥相干？”鸠摩智：“小僧为践昔日之约，要将段公子在慕容先生墓前烧化了。” 此言一出，众人都是一惊，但见他神色宁定，一本正经，决不是随口说笑的模样，惊讶更甚。阿碧道：“大师父这不是讲笑话吗，好端端一个人，哪能拨你随便烧化？”鸠摩智淡淡的道：“小僧要烧了他，谅他也抗拒不得。”阿碧微笑道：“大师父说段公子心中记得全部六脉神剑剑谱，可见得全是瞎三话四。想这六脉神剑是何等厉害功夫，段公子倘若真是会得使这路剑法，又怎能屈服于你？”鸠摩智点了点头，道：“姑娘只知其一，不知其二。段公子被我点中了穴道，全身内劲使不出来。” 阿朱不住摇头，道：“我更加半点也不信了。你倒解开段公子的穴道，教他施展施展六脉神剑看。我瞧你九成九是在说谎。”鸠摩智点点头，道：“很好，可以一试。” 段誉称赞阿碧美貌，对她的弹奏歌唱大为心醉，阿碧自是欢喜；他不揭穿阿朱乔装，反向她磕了三个响头，又得了阿朱的欢心，因此这两个小丫头听说段誉被点了穴道，都想骗鸠摩智解开他穴道。不料鸠摩智居然一口答允。
From then on, he traveled east all the way for more than twenty days, Duan Yu gradually felt the elegance and softness of the passerby's accent, and there was no chili pepper in the dishes. This day finally arrived outside the city of Suzhou, Duan Yu thought: "We're going to go to Murong Bo's grave now. The monks can't get the sword manual, so they won't kill me, but in front of Murong Bo's tomb, will you kill me?" I burned it, roasted it, and made it half dead, but it didn't fail." I turned my heart, didn't think too much, and looked at the scenery with my eyes.It was the weather in March at this time, with apricot blossoms on the path, green willows hanging down the lake, and the warm spring breeze blowing on my body, I was really drunk.Duan Yu couldn't help feeling relieved, and blurted out: "The waves are misty, Liu Yiyi, the lonely village is far away, and the apricot blossoms are flying in the slanting sun." Jiumozhi sneered and said, "When death is imminent, it's thanks to you that you still have such a leisurely mood, and you can still sing poems and libretto." Duan Yu said with a smile: "The Buddha said: 'The body is impermanent, and impermanence is suffering.' There is no immortal person in the world. .At most, you can only live for a few more years, so what is there to be happy about?" Jiumozhi ignored him, and asked passers-by where "Shenhe Village" was.But he asked seven or eight people in a row, but none of them knew, and the language was not clear, and it was even more troublesome.Finally an old man said: "In and outside of Suzhou city, there is not a Zhuangzi called Canhe Zhuangge. You great monk, you must have misheard." Jiumozhi said: "There is a big village owner named Murong, may I ask?" Where does he live?" The old man said: "At the end of the city of Suzhou, the surnames are Gu, Lu, Shen, Zhang, Zhou, Wen...they are all owners of the big village, how can there be anyone named Murong? I've heard it." Jiumozhi was just ignoring him, when he suddenly heard a person on Xishou Xiaolu say: "I heard that Murong family lives in Yanziwu, thirty miles west of the city, let's go and have a look." Another person said: "Well, we've reached the end of the land , you have to be careful." He spoke with a Henan Zhongzhou accent.The two spoke in a very soft voice, Jiumozhi, who has cultivated his inner strength, could hear clearly, he thought: "Could it be that these two told me on purpose? Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?" Looking sideways, One was tall and handsome, wearing filial piety, while the other was short and thin, like a consumptive pickpocket. With just one glance, Jiumozhi knew that these two people had martial arts, and before he had made up his mind whether to speak to each other, Duan Yu had already called out: "Mr. Huo, Mr. Huo, are you here too?" The one man is Cui Baiquan, the golden abacus, and the other is his nephew, Guo Yanzhi. After the two of them left Dali, they wholeheartedly wanted to avenge Ke Baisui, knowing that Murong's martial arts were extremely high and it would be hard to avenge this revenge, they still came to Suzhou with a lot of courage.He found out that Murong family lives in Yanziwu, but Murong Bo has been dead for many years, so the murderer of Ke Baisui must be another member of Murong's family.The two felt that revenge was a little bit more hopeful, they rushed to the lake, and happened to meet Jiumozhi and Duan Yu. Cui Baiquan suddenly heard Duan Yu's cry, and was stunned, he ran over quickly, and saw a monk riding on the horse, holding the reins of Duan Yu's mount with his left hand, Duan Yu's hands were stiff, hanging by his side, obviously The acupoint was hit, and he wondered: "Little prince, it's you, hey, great monk, why are you making trouble with this young master? Do you know who he is?" Jiumozhi didn't pay much attention to these two people, but he thought that he had never been to the Central Plains, Mr. Murong's home is not easy to find, it would be best if these two people lead the way, he said: "I'm going to Murong's family. In my house, I ask you two to lead the way." Cui Baiquan said: "May I ask you how to address the master? Why dare to offend Duan's young prince? What is the purpose of going to the Murong mansion?" Jiumozhi said: "I will know when the time comes." Cui Baiquan said: "Is the master a friend of the Murong family? " Jiumozhi said: "That's right, where is the Canhe Village where Mr. Murong lives? Huo.Cui Baiquan scratched his scalp, and said to Duan Yu: "Young Lord, I will untie the acupoints on your arm." As he spoke, he walked up a few steps, and stretched out his hand to untie the acupoints for Duan Yu. Duan Yu thought to himself that Jiumozhi's martial art skills are amazingly high, there is no one in this world who can beat him, these two Cui Guos are absolutely no match for him, if they try to rescue each other in vain, they will just lose their lives in vain.It's better to tell the two of them to escape quickly, and said: "Wait a minute! This master is alone, defeated my uncle and five masters from Dali, and captured me. He is a close friend of Mr. Murong, and he wants to arrest me. Mr. Murong's tomb was burned as a sacrifice. The two of you have nothing to do with the Gusu Murong family, so let's go quickly." Cui Baiquan and Guo Yanzhi were shocked when they heard that this monk defeated Emperor Baoding and other experts, and they were even more shocked when they heard that he was a close friend of the Murong family.Cui Baiquan thought to himself that he had been hiding in Zhennan Prince's Mansion for more than ten years, how could he just ignore the little Prince's trouble today?Anyway, since coming to Gusu, this life has long since been risked. It doesn't matter whether he dies under the right abacus or in the hands of others. He immediately reached into his arms, took out a golden abacus, held it high and shook it, With a clattering sound, he said: "Grand Monk, Mr. Murong is your good friend, but this little prince is my good friend. I advise you to let him go." A soft whip wrapped around his waist.The two rushed towards Kumozhima at the same time. Duan Yu shouted: "Hurry up, you two, you can't beat him." Jiumozhi smiled lightly, and said: "Are you really going to do it?" Cui Baiquan said: "This fight is called swatting a fly on the tiger's head. I know I can't beat you, but I have to try it. Life and death... ah, ah Yo!" Before he could say "life and death", Jiumozhi stretched out his hand and snatched Yanzhi's soft whip, followed by a slap, turned over the soft whip, wrapped around the golden abacus in Cui Baiquan's hand, swung the whip, and the two weapons simultaneously He let go of his hands and flew towards the lake on the right, seeing the two weapons were about to sink to the bottom of the lake, but Jiumozhi's strength in his hands was just right, the soft whip tip turned over, just entangled a willow branch hanging on the lake, The willow branches are soft, rising and sinking, shaking constantly.The gold abacus patted the water surface, creating ripples. Jiumozhi clasped his hands together and said, "I'm sorry for your trouble, you two will lead the way." Cui Guo and the two looked at each other, not knowing what to do.Jiumozhi said: "If the two of you don't want to lead the way, please tell me the way to Yanziwu Canhezhuang, and let the young monk find the way to go, that's okay." Cui Guo and the two saw his martial arts so strong, but his demeanor was very humble. Extremely, I don't think it's wrong to turn your face, and it's not right not to turn your face. At this moment, I only heard the sound of Ai Nai, and a small boat floated on the green waves of the lake. A girl in green shirt was paddling slowly with sculls in her hands, singing a little song, which was: "Han There are ten hectares of fragrant lotus, and my sister-in-law is too late to pick lotus. Come late to make water on the beach at the head of the boat, laughing and taking off her red dress to wrap her ducks." The singing is soft and innocent, joyful and heart-warming. When Duan Yu recited the poems and articles of predecessors in Dali, he had long been fascinated by the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River.I saw the young girl's slender hands and bright skin like jade, reflecting the green waves, it was as transparent as it was.Cui Baiquan and Guo Yanzhi couldn't help turning their heads to look at her even though they were facing a formidable enemy. Only Jiumozhi ignored it and listened as if he didn't hear it, and said: "Since the two of you are unwilling to tell the location of Canhe Village, I will take my leave." At this time, the young girl was rowing a small boat and was already near the shore, when she heard Jiumozhi's words, she interjected, "This master is going to participate in Hezhuang Village, what's the matter?" The voice was very sweet and clear, which made people feel uncomfortable. After listening to it, it is indescribably comfortable.This girl is about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a gentle face and a delicate body. Duan Yu thought to himself: "Unexpectedly, a girl from the south of the Yangtze River is so beautiful." In fact, this girl is not very beautiful, she is not as good as Mu Wanqing, but she has eight points of appearance, plus twelve points of gentleness, she is not inferior to ten points. Talented beauties. Jiumozhi said: "My little monk wants to go to Canhe Village, can my lady show you the way?" The girl smiled and said, "No one outside will know the name of Canhe Village. Where did the master hear it from?" Jiumozhi said: "The little monk is Mr. Murong's best friend, and he came here to sacrifice in front of the old friend's grave, to fulfill the old promise. I hope to get to know Mr. Murong, Qing Fan." The girl pondered, "Jiemo is really a coincidence! Mr. Murong was just the day before yesterday. Going out of the son's door, the master came early at the end of three days, and you met the young master." Jiumozhi said: "Being close to the young master makes people feel melancholy, but the young monk came all the way from Tubo to China. I paid homage to Mr. Murong's tomb to fulfill my wish." The young girl said: "Master is a good friend of Mr. Murong, please go and have a cup of tea first, and then I will deliver the report to you, what do you say (speak left and right)? Jiumozhi said: "Who is the young lady in the son's house? What should I call her?" The girl smiled sweetly and said: "Ah, I am a little girl who serves the young master to play the piano and play the flute. My name is Abi. Don't ask me to be polite like a big lady or a little lady. It's good to call me Abi!" She took a mouthful of Suzhou soil. Bai, it was difficult to understand at first, but she is a maidservant of a martial arts family, she thinks she has heard a lot of official language, so she tried to add some official language in her speech, Jiumozhi and Duan Yu can barely understand it.At that moment Jiumozhi said respectfully: "Don't dare!" Just make it cool.) Abi said: "It's all waterways to go to Yanziwu Qinyun Xiaozhu. If all of these people want to go, I'll see you off by boat, okay (cut left and right)?" Cutting)" are all diligent inquiries and soft-spoken discussions, which are hard to refuse. Jiumozhi said: "It's really hard work." He took Duan Yu's hand and lightly jumped onto the boat.The boat only sank a little, but it didn't wobble at all.Abi smiled slightly at Jiumozhi and Duan Yu, as if to say: "What a skill!" Guo Yanzhi said in a low voice: "Master Uncle, what's the matter?" The two of them came to seek revenge on Murong, but it was really embarrassing to be in such a mess. Abi smiled and said: "The two uncles are coming to Suzhou. If you have any important matters, Jiemo, please come to our place for a cup of tea and some snacks. Don't think this boat is small, it will take a few people to sit. Don't get lost." She paddled the boat lightly, came under the willow tree, stretched out her slender hands to put away the abacus and soft whip, and played with the beads casually, making a loud clank. Duan Yu only listened to a few times, and said happily: "Girl, are you playing 'Picking Mulberry'?" It turned out that she fiddled with the beads casually, with a rhythm of severity and rhythm, and unexpectedly there were two crisp and smart "Picking Mulberries" ".Abi smiled sweetly and said: "My lord, you are proficient in rhythm, do you want to play a piece too?" Duan Yu saw that she was innocent and kind, and said with a smile: "I don't know how to play abacus." Turning to Cui Baiquan, he said: "Huo Sir, people have played your calculations so nicely." Cui Baiquan smiled shyly, and said: "That's right, that's good. The girl is really elegant. My most vulgar family background, in the girl's hands, becomes a musical instrument." Abi said: "Ah, I'm really sorry. , Is this Mr. Huo’s? This abacus is really well made. You must have copper coins in your house, and even the abacus is made of gold. Mr. Huo, I still call you carefully.” Holding the abacus in her left hand, she stretched her arms .Cui Baiquan was on the shore and couldn't get it, and he was really reluctant to part with this old friend who never left him for a moment, so he stepped lightly, got on the bow, reached out to take the abacus, turned his head and glared at Jiumozhi.Jiumozhi always had a kind smile on his face, without any trace of anger. Holding the soft whip in her left hand, Abi raised the tip of the whip, and stretched the five fingers of her right hand down on the whip. Her fingernails touched the raised edges and corners of the soft whip, and she immediately sent out ding, ling, dong, and long. the sound of.She stretched her five fingers like this, just like trying a new pipa, a weapon that has fought all over the world, black and white heroes, became a musical instrument again in her white and soft hands. Duan Yu shouted: "Wonderful, wonderful! Girl, just play it." Abi said to Guo Yanzhi: "This soft whip belongs to this old man? Thank you. Master, you can come on the boat too, and I will make you eat fresh red water chestnut after a while." Guo Yanzhi felt a grudge against his teacher and hated Gusu Murong's family to the bone, but seeing this little girl's smile was so innocent and innocent. , although he was full of hatred, it was difficult to get angry at her, thinking: "It would be the best if she led me to the village. Anyway, I have to kill a few of them first to avenge my teacher." to the boat. Abi rolled up the soft whip well and handed it to Guo Yanzhi, the wooden oar was pulled, and the boat slid westward. Cui Baiquan and Guo Yanzhi exchanged a few glances, thinking: "Today I went deep into the tiger's lair, I don't know how to live or die. Murong's attack is extremely vicious, this little girl is gentle and gentle, it seems true, but I don't know that it is not the trick of Murong's proud enemy ? Teach us to take precautions, so he can take the opportunity to attack." Boating on the lake, after a few turns, it turned into a big lake. Looking far away, you can see the vast mist, and the distant water reaches the sky.Guo Yanzhi was even more shocked: "This big lake must be Taihu Lake. Uncle Cui and I can't swim, this little girl only needs to capsize the boat, and we two will sink into the lake to feed the fish and turtles, and say Why avenge the teacher?" Cui Baiquan also thought of this episode, thinking that if he could hold the wooden oar in his hand, the little girl would want to capsize the boat, but it would not be so easy, so he said: "Girl, I will row the boat for you, you just need to Just pointing out the direction." Abi laughed and said, "Ah, Jie Mo dare not be the one. If my son knows about him, he will definitely scold me for neglecting the guests." Seeing that she refused, Cui Baiquan was even more suspicious, and said with a smile: "It's not true. To be honest, we want to hear the girl's unique skill in playing music on the soft whip. We are rough people, but this Mr. Duan is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is good at everything." Abi glanced at Duan Yu, and said with a smile: "I play a good white face, what kind of special skill is it? Mr. Duan is so elegant, listening to his smile, laughing so happy, I don't want to come." Cui Baiquan took the soft whip from Guo Yanzhi, handed it to her, and said: "You play, you play!" while taking the wooden oar from her hand.Abi smiled and said: "Okay, let me give you a break for your golden abacus." Cui Baiquan secretly felt fear: "She wants to take away both of our weapons, is there some conspiracy?" In the meantime, it was already inconvenient to refuse, so I had to hand her the golden abacus.Abi put the abacus on the boat board in front of her, held the handle of the soft whip with her left hand, lightly stepped on the head of the whip with her left foot, and pulled the soft whip straight, and flicked the wheel with five fingers of her right hand, the soft whip immediately made a ding-dong sound, Although it is not as complex and clear as the pipa, it is more refreshing. When Abi flicked and wiped with five fingers, she still had time to fiddle with the golden abacus with her fingers, the clank of the abacus beads was interspersed with the Ding Ding of the soft whip, adding to the clear rhythm.At this moment, two swallows were seen flying past the bow of the ship and drifting westward.Duan Yu thought: "The place Murong lives is called Yanziwu, there must be a lot of swallows." I can only hear Abi singing in a rambling voice: "The two community have a good time, a thousand families courtyard, and see the double flying swallows. The phoenix's nest is stable and promises to be neighbors, how late will the Xiaoxiang smoke come? Enter the red building in disorder, fly low to the green bank, and the painted beams blow the singing dust Turn. For whom do you go back and for whom do you come? The master is very kind to you." When Duan Yu heard her singing so softly, he couldn't help but be moved, thinking: "If I live in the southern border all my life, how can I listen to this fairy music?" .'Mr. Murong has a maid like this, so he is a very special person." After finishing the song, Abi returned the abacus and the soft whip to Cui Guo and the two, and said with a smile: "Your singing is not good, please don't laugh. Mr. Huo, go to the small harbor on the left, that's right!" Cui Baiquan was relieved to see her handing back the weapon, and immediately rowed the boat into a small harbor as he said, but saw that the water was covered with lotus leaves, if she hadn't pointed it out, he would never have known that there was a passage between the lotus leaves.Cui Baiquan paddled for a while, and Abi pointed out the waterway again: "Paddle from here." The water surface here is full of water chestnut leaves and red water chestnuts. In the clear waves, the red water chestnuts and green leaves are very colorful.Abi picked the red water chestnuts and distributed them to everyone. Although Duan Yu can move his hands, he has no strength after the acupoints are touched, and he can't even peel off the hard skin of a red water chestnut.Abi laughed and said, "Master, don't be from Jiangnan, don't know how to peel water chestnuts, I will let you peel them." Peel several water chestnuts in succession and put them in his palm.Duan Yu saw that the skin and flesh of the water chestnut were smooth and clean, and when he put it into his mouth, the sweetness was crisp and sweet, he said with a smile: "The taste of this water chestnut is clear but not greasy, just like a little song sung by a girl." Abi's face slightly Yihong smiled and said: "Compare my song to Hongling, it's the first time I've heard it today, thank you sir!" Before the Lingtang was over, Abi guided the boat through a clump of reeds and wild rice shoots.As a result, even Jiumozhi became wary, and secretly remembered the boat's origin, so as not to get lost when going back and forth, but at a glance, the lotus leaves, water chestnut leaves, reeds, and wild rice stems all over the lake were all exactly the same, and the lotus leaves were all the same. Leafs and rhombus leaves float on the water surface, and when a gust of wind blows at any time, they will change a lot. Even if you remember it clearly at this moment, the situation will be completely different in an instant.Jiumozhi, Cui Baiquan, and Guo Yanzhi kept looking at Abi's eyes, trying to see her way and direction from her eyes.But she just casually picked water chestnuts to divert the water, and guided them casually, as if the many criss-crossing water channels, like a chessboard, were as clear as the palm lines in her palm, and she knew them from birth, so she didn't need to identify them. After drawing zigzags like this for more than two hours, at the end of the day, I saw a cornice in the distance among the green willow bushes in the distance.Abi said: "It's here! Uncle Huo! You are so tired that you rowed the boat for half a day." Cui Baiquan said with a wry smile: "As long as there are red water chestnuts to eat and clear songs to listen to, I will row him like this for ten or eight years. Not tired either." Abi clapped her hands and laughed, "You want to listen to songs and eat water chestnuts, and Jiemo makes lunch? It's good not to go out in this lake for the rest of your life!" When Cui Baiquan heard her say "don't go out in this lake for the rest of your life", he couldn't help being startled, and looked at her with squinted eyes for a while, but seeing that she seemed to have no intention of smiling, he couldn't feel relieved.
Abi took the wooden oar and rowed the boat straight to the shade of willows. Nearby, she saw a wooden ladder made of pine branches hanging down to the water.Abi tied the boat to the branch, and suddenly heard a bird on the willow branch "Sasa Dusa, Sasa Dusa" with a clear and clear voice.Abi imitated the song of a bird, and also called a few times, turned her head and said with a smile: "Please go ashore!" Everyone stepped ashore one by one, and saw four or five houses scattered here and there, built on an unknown island or peninsula.The house is small and exquisite, quite elegant.The word "Qin Yun" is written on the plaque of Xiaoshe, which is quite chic.Jiumozhi said: "Is this the Yanziwu Canhe Village?" Abi shook her head and said, "No. This is the place where the young master gave me to live. It's a small place, and it really can't receive distinguished guests. But this master said he would go to pay his respects. I can't be the master of offering sacrifices to Master Murong's tomb, so I have to ask a few of you to wait here, and I'll ask Sister Azhu." When Jiumozhi heard this, he felt angry and his face sank slightly.He is the protector of the Tubo Kingdom, how respectful is he?Not to mention being respected by the ruler in the Tubo Kingdom, even in the courts of Song, Dali, Liao, and Xixia, the monarchs of all countries must treat him as a distinguished guest, not to mention that he is an old friend of Mr. Murong, This visit to the tomb, Mr. Murong didn't know beforehand and went out, so that's fine, but this servant didn't invite him to the main hall and guest room for a grand reception, but took him to a small servant's courtyard, it's really irritating .But when he saw Abi's smiling face, he didn't mean to be contemptuous, he thought: "This little girl doesn't understand anything, why should I have the same knowledge as her." Thinking of this verse, he felt calm. Cui Baiquan asked, "Who is your sister Azhu?" Abi laughed and said, "Azhu is just Azhu. Yi is only a month older than me, so Jiemo puts on the airs of a sister. My name is Sister Yi. , Jie Mo called it a no-brainer, who will teach Yi to teach me for a month? You don’t need to call Yi sister, if you call Yi sister Mo, Yi will be more proud.” She giggled and said, The voice is clear and soft, like playing an orchestra, leading the four of them into the house. In the living room, Ah Bi invited the guests to sit down, and then a servant served tea and pastries.Duan Yu picked up the tea bowl, and there was a burst of fragrance. He lifted the lid and saw dark green tea leaves floating in the light green tea water, like small beads, full of fine fluff.Duan Yu had never seen it before. After taking a sip, he felt the fragrance in his mouth and the bottom of his tongue produced fluid.Jiumozhi, Cui and Guo saw the strangeness of the tea, so they didn't dare to drink it.This bead-shaped tea is a special product of the mountains near Taihu Lake. Later generations called it "Biluochun". This elegant name did not exist in the Northern Song Dynasty.Jiumozhixiang lived in the Western Regions and the mountains of Tubo, he was used to drinking bitter black tea, seeing this kind of dark green hairy tea, he couldn't help but suspect that it was poisonous. The four-color desserts are rose pine nut candy, tuckahoe soft cake, emerald sweet cake, lotus root powder and ham dumpling. They are elegantly shaped, and each piece of cake seems not to be made for eating, but for enjoying. Duan Yu praised: "These dim sum are so delicate, the taste must be absolutely delicious, but why are people willing to open their mouths to eat them?" One praise one, happy life.Jiumozhi and Cui Guo still dare not eat it.Duan Yu became suspicious: "This Jiumozhi claims to be Murong Bo's friend, why is he always on guard? And Murong Manor's reception of him seems not quite right." Jiumozhi's patience was really amazing, he waited for a long time, after Duan Yu had tasted all the tea and cakes, and praised him enough, he said: "Then please tell your sister Ah Zhu." Abi smiled and said: "Ah Zhu's Zhuangzi is four or nine waterways away from here. It's too late to go now. The four of you will stay here for one night. In the early morning of tomorrow, I will send the four of you to 'Listen to the Perfume Pavilion'." Cui Baiquan asked: "What is the four-nine waterway?" Abi said: "Ninety-nine is nine miles, two-ninety-eight miles, and four-nine is thirty-six miles. You can figure it out with your abacus." It turns out that in the Jiangnan area, when it comes to distance, there are always It is the calculation of one nine and twenty nine. Jiumozhi said: "If I had known this before, wouldn't it be a pleasure for the girl to send us to the Perfume Pavilion?" Abi laughed and said, "Here, if people don't gossiping with me, I'll be bored very quickly. After all, a few came here. Guest, how many flowers do you like? Jiemo will keep you two to stay for a day." Guo Yanzhi had been sullen and silent all this time, at this moment he suddenly stood up and shouted: "Where do the relatives of Murong's family live? I came to Canhezhuang after passing Yanshang, not to drink tea and eat, let alone to laugh with you, but to kill people." Those who took revenge and bleed to death. Even though the surname Guo came here, he didn’t want to come out of this village again. Girl, please go and tell me that I am a disciple of Ke Baisui of the Funiu School, and today I am here to avenge my master!" said softly With a flick of the whip and a crackling sound, a red sandalwood coffee table and a Xiangfei bamboo chair were smashed into pieces. Abi was neither frightened nor angry, and said: "There are always a few cases every month when heroes and heroes in the world come to visit your son, and there are also many uncles who are so tyrannical and vicious. My little girl is not frightened." ..." Before she finished speaking, an old man with silver beard and hair turned out from the back hall, holding a cane in his hand, and said, "Abi, who is yelling here?" She spoke in official Chinese, and her voice was very strange. pure. 崔百泉纵身离椅，和过彦之并肩而立，喝问：“我师兄柯百岁到底是死在谁的手下？” 段誉见这老人弓腰曲背，满脸都是皱纹，没九十也有八十岁，只听他嘶哑着嗓子说道：“柯百岁，柯百岁，嗯，年纪活到一百岁，早就该死啦！” 过彦之一到苏州，立时便想到慕容氏家中去大杀大砍一场，替恩师报仇，只是给鸠摩智夺去兵刃，折了锐气，再遇上阿碧这样天真可爱的一个小姑娘，满腔怨愤，无可发泄，这时听这老人说话无礼，软鞭挥出，鞭头便点向他背心。他见鸠摩智坐在西首，防他出手干预，这一鞭便从东边挥击过去。 哪知鸠摩智手臂一伸，掌心中如有磁力，远远的便将软鞭抓了过去，说道：“过大侠，咱们远来是客，有话可说，不必动武。”将软鞭卷成一团，还给了他。 过彦之满脸胀得通红，接又不是，不接又不是，转念心想：“今日报仇乃是大事，宁可受一时之辱，须得有兵刃在手。”便伸手接了。 鸠摩智向那老人道：“这位施主尊姓大名？是慕容先生的亲戚，还是朋友？”那老人裂嘴一笑，说道：“老头儿是公子爷的老仆，有什么尊姓大名？听说大师父是我们故世的老爷好朋友，不知有什么吩咐。”鸠摩智道：“我的事要见到公子后当面奉告。”那老人道：“那可不巧了，公子爷前天动身出门，说不定哪一天才回来。”鸠摩智问道：“公子去了何处？”那老人侧过了头，伸手敲敲自己的额角，道：“这个么，我可老糊涂了，好像是去西夏国，又说什么辽国，也说不定是吐蕃，要不然便是大理。” 鸠摩智哼了一声，心中不悦，当时天下五国分峙，除了当地是大宋所辖，这老人却把其余四国都说全了。他明知这老人是假装胡涂，说道：“既是如此，我也不等公子回来了，请管家带我去慕容先生墓前一拜，以尽故人之情。” 那老人双手乱摇，说道：“这个我可作不起主，我也不是什么管家。”鸠摩智道：“那么尊府的管家是谁？请出来一见。”那老人连连点头，说道：“很好！很好！我去请管家来。”转过身子，摇摇摆摆的走了出去，自言自语：“这个年头儿啊，世上什么坏人都有，假扮了和尚道士，便想来化缘骗人。我老头儿什么没见过，才不上这个当呢。” 段誉哈哈一声，笑了出来。阿碧忙向鸠摩智道：“大师父，你勿要生气，老黄伯伯是个老胡涂。他自以为聪明，不过说话总归要得罪人。” 崔百泉拉拉过彦之的衣袖，走到一旁，低声道：“这贼秃自称是慕容家的朋友，但这儿明明没将他当贵客看待。咱们且别莽撞，瞧个明白再说。”过彦之道：“是！”两人回归原座。但过彦之本来所坐的那只竹椅已给他自己打碎，变成了无处可坐。阿碧将自己的椅子端着送过去，微笑道：“过大爷，请坐！”过彦之点了点头，心想：“我纵能将慕容氏一家杀得干干净净，这个小丫头也得饶了。” 段誉当那老仆进来之时，隐隐约约觉得这件事十分别扭，显得非常不对，但什么事情不对，却全然说不上来。他仔细打量这小厅中的陈设家具，庭中花木，壁上书画，再瞧阿碧、鸠摩智、崔百泉、过彦之四个人，什么特异之处都没有发现，心中却越来越觉异样。 过了半晌，只听得脚步声响，内堂走出一个五十来岁的瘦子，脸色焦黄，颏下留一丛山羊短须，一副精明能干的模样，身上衣着颇为讲究，左手小指戴一枚汉玉班指，看来便是慕容府中的管家了。这瘦子向鸠摩智等行礼，说道：“小人孙三拜见各位。大师父，你老人家要到我们老爷墓前去拜祭，我们实在感激之至。可是公子爷出门去了，没人还礼，太也不够恭敬。待公子爷回来，小人定将大师父这番心意转告便是……” 他说到这里，段誉忽然闻到一阵淡淡的香气，心中一动：“奇怪，奇怪。” 当先前那老仆来到小厅，段誉便闻到一阵幽雅的香气。这香气依稀与木婉清身上的体香有些相似，虽然颇为不同，然而总之是女儿之香。起初段誉还道这香气发自阿碧身上，也不以为意，可是那老仆一走出厅堂，这股香气就此消失，待那自称为孙三的管家走进厅来，段誉又闻到了这股香气，这才领会到，先前自己所以大觉别扭，原来是为了在一个八九十岁老公公身上，闻到了十七八岁小姑娘的体香，寻思：“莫非后堂种植了什么奇花异卉，有谁从后堂出来，身上便带有幽香？要不然那老仆和这瘦子都是女子扮的。” 这香气虽令段誉起疑，其实气息极淡极微，鸠摩智等三人半点也没察觉。段誉所以能够辨认，只因他曾与木婉清在石屋中经历了一段奇险的时刻，这淡淡的处女幽香，旁人丝毫不觉，于他却是铭心刻骨，比什么麝香、檀香、花香还更强烈得多。鸠摩智内功虽然深厚，但一生严守色戒，红颜绿鬓，在他眼中只是白骨骷髅，香粉胭脂，于他鼻端直同脓血秽臭，浑不知男人女子体气之有异。 段誉虽疑心孙三是女子所扮，但瞧来瞧去，委实无半点破绽，此人不但神情举止全是男人，而且形貌声音亦无丝毫女态。忽然想起：“女人要扮男人，这喉结须假装不来。”凝目向孙三喉间瞧去，只见他山羊胡子垂将下来，刚好挡住了喉头。段誉站起身来，假意观赏壁上的字画，走到孙三侧面，斜目偷睨，但见他喉头毫无突起之状，又见他胸间饱满，虽不能就此说是女子，但这样精瘦的一个男人，胸间决不会如此肌肉丰隆。段誉发觉了这个秘密，甚觉有趣，心想：“好戏还多着呢，且瞧她怎生做下去。” 鸠摩智叹道：“我和你家老爷当年在川边相识，谈论武功，彼此佩服，结成了好友。没想到天妒奇才，似我这等庸碌之辈，兀自在世上偷生，你家老爷却遽赴西方极乐。我从吐蕃国来到中土，只不过为了故友情重，要去他墓前一拜，有没有人还礼，那又打什么紧？相烦管家领路便是。”孙三皱起眉头，显得十分为难，说道：“这个……这个……”鸠摩智道：“不知这中间有何为难之处，倒要请教。” 孙三道：“大师父既是我家老爷生前的至交好友，自必知道老爷的脾气。我家老爷最怕有人上门拜访，他说来到我们府中的，不是来寻仇生事，便是来拜师求艺，更下一等的，则是来打抽丰讨钱，要不然是混水摸鱼，顺手牵羊，想偷点什么东西去。他说和尚尼姑更加靠不住，啊哟……对不住……”他说到这里，警觉这几句话得罪了鸠摩智，忙伸手按住嘴巴。 这副神气却全然是个少女的模样，睁着圆圆的眼睛，乌黑的眼珠骨溜溜的一转，虽然立即垂下眼皮，但段誉一直就在留心，不由得心中一乐：“这孙三不但是女子，而且还是个年轻姑娘。”斜眼瞧阿碧时，见她唇角边露出一丝狡狯的微笑，心下更无怀疑，暗想：“这孙三和那老黄明明便是一人，说不定就是那个阿朱姊姊。” 鸠摩智叹道：“世人险诈者多而诚信者少，慕容先生不愿多跟俗人结交，确然也是应当的。”孙三道：“是啊。我家老爷遗言说道：如果有谁要来祭坟扫墓，一概挡驾。他说道：'这些贼秃啊，多半没安着好心，定是想掘我的坟墓。'啊哟，大师父，你可别多心，我家老爷骂的贼秃，多半并不是说你。” 段誉暗暗好笑：“所谓'当着和尚骂贼秃'，当真是半点也不错。”又想：“这个贼秃仍然半点不动声色，越是大奸大恶之人，越沉得住气。这贼秃当真是非同小可之辈。” 鸠摩智道：“你家老爷这几句遗言，原很有理。他生前威震天下，结下的仇家太多。有人当他在世之时奈何他不得，报不了仇，在他死后想去动他遗体，倒也不可不防。” 孙三道：“要动我家老爷的遗体，哈哈，那当真是'老猫闻咸鱼'了。”鸠摩智一怔，问道：“什么'老猫闻咸鱼'？”孙三道：“这叫做'嗅鲞啊嗅鲞'，就是'休想啊休想'！”鸠摩智道：“嗯，原来如此。我和慕容先生知己交好，只是在故人墓前一拜，别无他意，管家不必多疑。” 孙三道：“实实在在，这件事小人作不起主，若是违背了老爷遗命，公子爷回家后查问起来，可不要打折小人的腿么？这样罢，我去请老太太拿个主意，再来回复如何？”鸠摩智道：“老太太？是哪一位老太太？”孙三道：“慕容老太太，是我家老爷的叔母。每逢老爷的朋友们到来，都是要向她磕头行礼的。公子不在家，什么事便都得请示老太太了。”鸠摩智道：“如此甚好，请你向老太太禀告，说是吐蕃国鸠摩智向老夫人请安。”孙三道：“大师父太客气了，我们可不敢当。”说着走进内堂。 段誉寻思：“这位姑娘精灵古怪，戏弄鸠摩智这贼秃，不知是何用意？” 过了好一会，只听得珮环玎当，内堂走出一位老夫人来，人未到，那淡淡的幽香已先传来。段誉禁不住微笑，心道：“这次却扮起老夫人来啦。”只见她身穿古铜缎子袄裙，腕戴玉镯，珠翠满头，打扮得雍容华贵，脸上皱纹甚多，眼睛迷迷蒙蒙的，似乎已瞧不见东西。段誉暗暗喝采：“这小妮子当真了得，扮什么，像什么，更难得的是，她只这么一会儿便即改装完毕，手脚之利落，令人叹为观止矣。” 那老夫人撑着拐杖，颤巍巍的走到堂上，说道：“阿碧，是你家老爷的朋友来了么？怎不向我磕头？”脑袋东转西转，像是两眼昏花，瞧不见谁在这里。阿碧向鸠摩智连打手势低声道：“快磕头啊，你一磕头，太夫人就高兴了，什么事都能答允。”老夫人侧过了头，伸手掌张在耳边，以便听得清楚些，大声问道：“小丫头，你说什么？人家磕头了没有？” 鸠摩智道：“老夫人，你好，小僧给你老人家行礼了。”深深长揖，双手发劲，砖头上登时发出咚咚之声，便似是磕头一般。 崔百泉和过彦之对望一眼，均自骇然：“这和尚的内劲如此了得，咱们只怕在他手底走不了一招。” 老夫人点点头，说道：“很好，很好！如今这世界上奸诈的人多，老实的人少，就是磕一个头，有些坏胚子也要装神弄鬼，明明没磕头，却在地下弄出咚咚的声音来，欺我老太太瞧不见。你小娃儿很好，很乖，磕头磕得响。” 段誉忍不住嘿的一声，笑了出来。老夫人慢慢转过头来，说道：“阿碧，是有人放了个屁么？”说着伸手在鼻端扇动。阿碧忍笑道：“老太太，不是的。这段公子笑了一声。”老夫人道：“断了，什么东西断了？”阿碧道：“不是断了，人家是姓段，段家的公子。”老夫人点头道：“嗯，公子长公子短的，你从朝到晚，便是记挂着你家公子。”阿碧脸上一红，说道：“老太太耳朵勿灵，讲闲话要牵丝扳藤？” 老夫人向着段誉道：“你这娃娃，见了老太太怎不磕头？”段誉道：“老太太，我有句话想跟你说。”老夫人问道：“你说什么？”段誉道：“我有一个侄女儿，最是聪明伶俐不过，可是却也顽皮透顶。她最爱扮小猴儿玩，今天扮公的，明儿扮母的，还会把戏呢。老太太见了她一定欢喜。可惜这次没带她来向你老人家磕头。” 这老夫人正是慕容府中另一个丫头阿朱所扮。她乔装改扮之术神乎其技，不但形状极似，而言语举止，无不毕肖，可说没半点破绽，因此以鸠摩智之聪明机智，崔百泉之老于江湖，都没丝毫疑心，不料段誉却从她身上无法掩饰的一些淡淡幽香之中发觉了真相。 阿朱听他这么说，吃了一惊，但丝毫不动声色，仍是一副老态龙钟、耳聋眼花的模样，说道：“乖孩子，乖孩子，真聪明，我从来没见过像你这么精乖的孩子。乖孩子别多口，老太太定有好处给你。” 段誉心想：“她言下之意要我不可揭穿她底细，她在对付鸠摩智这贼秃，那是朋友而非敌人。”便道：“老夫人尽可放心，在下既到尊府，一切但凭老夫人吩咐便是。” 阿朱说道：“你听我话，那才是乖孩子啊。好，先对老婆婆磕上三个响头，我决计不会亏待了你。” 段誉一怔，心道：“我是堂堂大理国的皇太弟世子，岂能向你一个小丫头磕头？” 阿朱见他神色尴尬，嘿嘿冷笑，说道：“乖孩子，我跟你说，还是向奶奶磕几个头来得便宜。” 段誉一转头，只见阿碧抿着嘴，笑吟吟的斜眼瞅着自己，肤白如新剥鲜菱，嘴角边一粒细细的黑痣，更增俏媚，不禁心中一动，问道：“阿碧姊姊，听说尊府还有一位阿朱姊姊，她……她可是跟你一般美丽俊雅么？”阿碧微笑道：“啊哟！我这种丑八怪算得啥介？阿朱姊姊倘使听得你直梗问法，一定要交关勿开心哉。我怎么比得上人家，阿朱姊姊比我齐整十倍。”段誉道：“当真？”阿碧笑道：“骗你做啥？”段誉道：“比你俊美十倍，世上当无其人，除非是……除非是那位玉洞仙子。只要跟你差不多，已是少有的美人了。”阿碧红晕上颊，羞道：“老夫人叫你磕头，啥人要你瞎三话四的讨好我？” 段誉道：“老夫人本来必定也是一位国色天香的美人。老实说，对我有没有好处，我段誉倒也没怎么放在心上，但对美人儿磕几个头，倒也是心甘情愿的。”说着便跪了下去，心想：“既然磕头，索性磕得响些，我对那个洞中玉像已磕了几千几百个头，对一位江南美人磕上三个头，又有何妨？”当下咚咚咚的磕了三个响头。 阿朱十分欢喜，心道：“这位公子爷明知我是个小丫头，居然还肯向我磕头，当真十分难得。”说道：“乖孩子，很好，很好。可惜我身边没带见面钱……”阿碧抢着道：“老太太勿要忘记就是啦，下趟补给人家也是一样。” 阿朱白了她一眼，向崔百泉和过彦之道：“这两位客人怎不向老婆子磕头见礼？”过彦之哼了一声，粗声粗气的道：“你会武功不会？”阿朱道：“你说什么？”过彦之道：“我问你会不会武功。倘若武功高强，姓过的在慕容老夫人手底领死！如不是武林中人，也不必跟你多说什么。”阿朱摇头道：“什么蜈蚣百脚？蜈蚣自然是有的，咬人很痛呢。”向鸠摩智道：“大和尚，听说你想去瞧我侄儿的坟墓，你要偷盗什么宝贝啊？” 鸠摩智虽没瞧出她是少女假扮，却也已料到她是装聋作哑，决非当真老得胡涂了，心底增多了几分戒备之意，寻思：“慕容先生如此了得，他家中的长辈自也非泛泛。”当下装作没听见“掘墓”的话，说道：“小僧与慕容先生是知交好友，闻知他逝世的噩耗，特地从吐蕃国赶来，要到他墓前一拜。小僧生前曾与慕容先生有约，要取得大理段氏六脉神剑的剑谱，送与慕容先生一观。此约不践，小僧心中有愧。” 阿朱与阿碧对看了一眼，均想：“这和尚终于说上正题啦。”阿朱道：“六脉神剑剑谱取得了怎样？取不到又怎样？”鸠摩智道：“当年慕容先生与小僧约定，只须小僧取得六脉神剑剑谱给他观看几天，就让小僧在尊府'还施水阁'看几天书。”阿朱一凛：“这和尚竟知道'还施水阁'的名字，那么或许所言不虚。”当下假装胡涂，问道：“什么'稀饭水饺'？你要香梗米稀饭、鸡汤水饺么？那倒容易，你是出家人，吃得荤腥么？” 鸠摩智转头向阿碧道：“这位老太太也不知是真胡涂，还是假胡涂，如此拒人于千里之外，岂不令人心冷？” 阿朱道：“嗯，你的心凉了。阿碧，你去做碗热热的鸡鸭血汤，给大师父暖暖心肺。”阿碧忍笑道：“大师父勿吃荤介。”阿朱点头道：“那么不要用真鸡真鸭，改用素鸡素鸭好了。”阿碧道：“老太太，勿来事格，素鸭呒不血的。”阿朱道：“那怎么办呢？” 两个小姑娘一搭一档，尽是胡扯。苏州人大都伶牙利齿，后世苏州评弹之技名闻天下，便由于此。这两个小丫头平素本是顽闹说笑惯了的，这时作弄得鸠摩智直是无法可施。 他此番来到姑苏，原盼见到慕容公子后商议一件大事，哪知正主儿见不着，所见到之人一个个都缠夹不清，若有意，若无意，虚虚实实，令他不知如何着手才好。他略一凝思，已断定慕容老夫人、孙三、黄老仆、阿碧等人，都是意在推搪，既不让自己祭墓，当然更不让进入“还施水阁”观看武学秘籍，眼下不管他们如何装腔作势，自当先将话儿说明白了，此后或以礼相待，或恃强用武，自己都是先占住了道理，当下心平气和的道：“这六脉神剑剑谱，小僧是带来了，因此斗胆要依照旧约，到尊府'还施水阁'去观看图书。” 阿碧道：“慕容老爷已经故世哉。一来口说无凭，二来大师父带来这本剑谱，我们这里也呒不啥人看得懂，从前就算有啥旧约，自然是一概无效的了。”阿朱道：“什么剑谱？在哪里？先给我瞧瞧是真还是假的。” 鸠摩智指着段誉道：“这位段公子的心里，记得全套六脉神剑剑谱，我带了他人来，就同是带了剑谱来一样。”阿碧微笑道：“我还道真有什么剑谱呢，原来大师父是说笑的。”鸠摩智道：“小僧何敢说笑？那六脉神剑的原本剑谱，已在大理天龙寺中为枯荣大师所毁，幸好段公子原原本本的记得。”阿碧道：“段公子记得，是段公子的事，就算是到'还施水阁'看书，也应当请段公子去。同大师有啥相干？”鸠摩智：“小僧为践昔日之约，要将段公子在慕容先生墓前烧化了。” 此言一出，众人都是一惊，但见他神色宁定，一本正经，决不是随口说笑的模样，惊讶更甚。阿碧道：“大师父这不是讲笑话吗，好端端一个人，哪能拨你随便烧化？”鸠摩智淡淡的道：“小僧要烧了他，谅他也抗拒不得。”阿碧微笑道：“大师父说段公子心中记得全部六脉神剑剑谱，可见得全是瞎三话四。想这六脉神剑是何等厉害功夫，段公子倘若真是会得使这路剑法，又怎能屈服于你？”鸠摩智点了点头，道：“姑娘只知其一，不知其二。段公子被我点中了穴道，全身内劲使不出来。” 阿朱不住摇头，道：“我更加半点也不信了。你倒解开段公子的穴道，教他施展施展六脉神剑看。我瞧你九成九是在说谎。”鸠摩智点点头，道：“很好，可以一试。” 段誉称赞阿碧美貌，对她的弹奏歌唱大为心醉，阿碧自是欢喜；他不揭穿阿朱乔装，反向她磕了三个响头，又得了阿朱的欢心，因此这两个小丫头听说段誉被点了穴道，都想骗鸠摩智解开他穴道。不料鸠摩智居然一口答允。
