Chapter 34 Chapter Thirty-Third
Murong Fu raised his hand to greet Ding ChunQiu, and said: "Please, it's true that we don't meet each other anywhere in life, we met just now, parted for a while, and then reunited."
Ding ChunQiu smiled and said: "That is predestined relationship with the young master." He pondered: "I have injured several generals under him, and today in the chess game, I almost lost his life, how could this person be willing to fight with me? Ganxiu? I have heard that Gusu Murong's martial arts are extremely profound, "Use the way of the other, and give it to the other." There are certain words in the martial arts, so it may not be all lies, look at his hidden weapon skills in throwing chess pieces, it is indeed very good Yes. He was obsessed with watching chess before, and he just took the opportunity to get rid of him, but he was rescued again. It seems that although this kid has high martial arts skills, he is not good at other spells." Turning his head to Ah Zi, he said: "You said that if I was crippled Your martial arts have broken your tendons, broken your limbs, you would rather die immediately than reveal the whereabouts of that thing, right?"
AhZi was terrified, tremblingly said: "Master is magnanimous, don't...don't...don't take the disciple's nonsense, put...into heart."
Murong Fu smiled and said: "Mr. Ding, at your age, how can you still have the same knowledge as a child? Come on, come on, you and I have three drinks, discussing literature and martial arts, wouldn't it be good? Clean up the door before outsiders, Wouldn't that be too much of a sight?"
Before Ding Chunqiu could answer, a disciple of Xingxiu shouted angrily: "You are so good at life, my master is the supreme martial artist, how can I talk about literature and martial arts with you youngster? What qualifications do you have to come and talk to me?" My master talks about literature and martial arts?"
Another person yelled: "If you kowtow respectfully to ask for advice, the old fairy Xingxiu likes to guide and guide you, and maybe he will give you some advice. But you said that you want to talk about literature and martial arts with the old fairy Xingxiu, haha, you are not laughing crookedly." Human mouth? Haha!" He laughed twice, but the expression on his face was extremely weird. After a while, he laughed "haha" again, with a very dry voice. After laughing, he opened his mouth wide, but there was no sound at all. He couldn't send it out, but there was still a secretive and funny smile on his face.
The disciples of Xingxiu all knew that he was poisoned by Master's "Xiaoyao Sanxiao San", they were all terrified, after glancing at the fellow disciple who was stunned by Sanxiao, they all lowered their heads, not daring to take a breath. Dare to meet Master's eyes, Jun said: "The few words he said just now, I don't know how to annoy Master, but Master actually killed him with such a powerful method? You have to think carefully about these few words to him. Don’t make mistakes like him again.”
Ding ChunQiu's heart is both angry and fearful.When he was talking to A'Zi just now, he raised his sleeves slightly, he submerged his internal energy and waved the poisonous powder of "Xiaoyao Sanxiao San" towards Murong Fu.This poisonous powder is colorless, odorless, extremely fine, it was already late at that time, the living room of the hotel was dim and dim, no matter how good Murong Fu's kung fu is, he would definitely not notice it, who would have expected that he would use some means to kill it This "Xiaoyao Sanxiao San" was transferred to his disciples.It's not a pity to kill a disciple, but when Murong Fu was talking and laughing, he didn't see him raise his hands or feet, so he transferred the poisonous powder to other people. I don't know what kind of effort it was.He only thought of eight words in his mind: "Use the way of the other, and return it to the other!" Murong Fu's technique is similar to "receive the hidden weapon, hit the hidden weapon". Receive poison powder and send poison powder.But the poisonous powder is so fine, how could he not get it on his body, and then send it out again?
Then I thought again: "When it comes to 'returning the other's way, give it to the other body', this Xiaoyao Sanxiao San should be returned to me. Hmph, this kid must be afraid of the old fairy, so he dare not rush to stroke the tiger's beard." Thinking of it "Smooth the tiger's beard" three words, touched the long beard with one hand, but only touched seven or eight burnt short beards, instead of being annoyed, he was happy: "With the knowledge and skills of Su Xinghe and old monk Xuannan, After all, I still lost my old life under the hands of the old fairy, Murong Fu is still a child, what is the point?" He said: "Mr. Murong, you and I are really destined, come, come, I will toast you a glass of wine." A wine glass flew towards Murong Fu flatly.The wine glass flew across, but not a single drop of wine splashed out.
If it were normal, the group of disciples would already be singing thunderously, but just now they saw a fellow disciple died strangely, they were afraid of being flattered, they couldn't figure out the master's intention, no one dared to speak rashly, but this applause, always It is necessary, otherwise the master will be offended, but he can't afford it.As soon as the wine glass came in front of Murong Fu, the group of disciples shouted loudly: "Okay!" There were three very timid people who didn't even dare to drink this applause, and only realized that they didn't applaud after hearing the applause from everyone in the same sect , Tai Ye lagged behind, and hurriedly applauded, but the three "good" words were always a moment late, obviously not neat enough.Seeing the reproachful eyes of the fellow disciples, the three were immediately ashamed and terrified.
Murong Fu said: "Mr. Ding's glass of wine should be passed on to disciple Ling Gao!" He took a breath, blowing the wine glass suddenly turned, and flew towards the XingXiu disciple on the left.
As soon as he blew, he would divert the wine glass away, compared to flicking the glass with his fingers, the difficulty is different, even people who don't know martial arts can see that when the wine glass turns around, Ding ChunQiu obviously lost a move.In fact, the strength of Murong Fu's puff is completely different from Ding Chunqiu's flick, but the direction and strength of the puff are very precise, it seems that he is blowing open the cup with one breath, but in fact he just borrowed from the other party Just a flick of the finger.
The disciple of Xingxiu saw the glass flying towards him, he didn't have time to think about it, he naturally reached out to catch it, and said: "This is what Master ordered you to drink!" He wanted to throw the glass at Murong Fu, but suddenly he let out a miserable cry, and fell back , Immediately motionless.
All the disciples were very clear this time, they knew that when the master flicked the wine glass, he applied the poison from his fingernails on the glass, as long as Murong Fu touched the wine glass with his fingers, without the need for the wine to touch his lips, he would die just like this XingXiu disciple.
Ding ChunQiu's face changed color, his heart was extremely angry, he knew that this move could not be concealed from the eyes of all his disciples, at this point, he could no longer show leisure, so he held a wine glass in both hands, stood up slowly, and said: "Murong Young master, this old man will always respect you with this glass of wine." He said and walked in front of Murong Fu.
With a glance, Murong Fu saw a layer of blue light faintly glowing in the glass of baijiu, obviously it contained extremely powerful poison.He brought it himself in this way, and there was no room for maneuver.Seeing Ding Chunqiu walking in front of him, there was only a board table away, Murong Fu took a breath, the wine in the cup Ding Chunqiu was holding suddenly rose straight up, becoming a green water line.
Ding Chunqiu secretly exclaimed: "It's amazing!" Knowing that the other party sucked in and then spit out, the water line would shoot towards him, although he would be harmless after being shot, but his body was dripping with wine, always Embarrassed and embarrassing, he immediately mobilized his internal strength, and with a bang, he blew towards the waterline.
But he saw that the water line rushed to about half a foot away from the tip of Murong Fu's nose, suddenly tilted his head to the left, passed behind his head, and flew out swiftly, with a puff, it went into a person In the mouth of Xingxiu disciples.
The man opened his mouth wide, wanting to applaud, but before he could say the word "good", a glass of poisoned wine had already penetrated into his stomach.The water line was coming at such a fast speed, yet he still happily shouted: "Okay!" It wasn't until after the applause that he realized it and shouted: "No!" , killed immediately.
This poison is so powerful, Murong Fu was also shocked: "I have traveled all over the world, but I have never seen such an overbearing poison."
The two of them competed, and in an instant, three disciples of the Xingxiu Sect died one after another, obviously the victory and defeat were already divided.
Ding ChunQiu was very angry, he put the wine glass on the table, and split it with his palm.Murong Fu had heard his notoriety of "Great Transformation Technique" for a long time, so he leaned over.Ding Chunqiu split three palms in a row, Murong Fu dodged all of them with his delicate movements, not touching his palms.
The two fought faster and faster, the small restaurant was filled with tables and stools, the position was narrow and there was no room for maneuver, but the two of them went back and forth between the tables and chairs without making a sound, they never exchanged fists and palms, Even the tables and chairs are not close at all.
The disciples of the Xingxiu sect were all standing against the wall, no one dared to step out of the shop, the master was fighting fiercely with a formidable enemy, whoever dared to run away from him would be committing a serious crime of disloyalty to the master.Everyone knows that the situation is dangerous, as long as they give them a little palm, their lives are in danger, they have no choice but to hope that their bodies will turn into a thin sheet of paper and stick it to the wall desperately.But seeing that Murong Fu defends more and attacks less, although his palm technique is exquisite, but because he didn't dare to meet Ding Chunqiu's palm, he bound his hands and feet when he strikes, he was at a disadvantage.
Once Ding ChunQiu had done several moves, he knew that Murong Fu didn't want to face palms with him, obviously he was afraid of his "Great Transformation Technique".Since the other party is afraid of this skill, of course they want to restrain him with this skill, but Murong Fu's figure is erratic and his palms are more unpredictable, it is really not easy to force him to face his own palm.A few more palms apart, Ding ChunQiu had thought of an idea, now he waved his right palm vertically and horizontally, trying to push forward, but his left palm pretended to be inflexible, at the same time he deliberately tried his best to conceal it, so that Murong Fu would not be able to see it.
Murong Fu's martial arts are superb, if the opponent's weakness is revealed, how could he not see it?He turned sideways and slapped out two palms abruptly, gaining momentum and pointing directly at Ding ChunQiu's left flank.Ding ChunQiu hummed in a low voice, took a step back, he didn't dare to extend his left palm to receive the move.Murong Fu thought: "I don't know what kind of internal injury this old monster has suffered between his left chest and his left side." At the moment, it is unreasonable, although the attack is still mainly on the right side of the enemy, but the use of internal force is all offensive. to his left.
After more than 20 moves, Ding Chunqiu retracted his left hand into his sleeve, turned his right palm into a claw, and grabbed Murong Fu's face.Murong Fu slanted his body and turned around, punched him directly on his left flank.Ding ChunQiu had been waiting for his punch, the opponent finally hit him, he couldn't help being overjoyed, he immediately swung his left sleeve and rolled towards the opponent's right arm.
Murong Fu thought to himself: "Your sleeve wind is ten times stronger, how can you hurt me?" The punch didn't retract, he used all his strength to catch the roll of his sleeve, there was a long hissing sound, Murong A piece of Fu's right sleeve was torn off.Surprised, Murong Fu punched harder, suddenly his fist tightened, and he was already grasped by the opponent.
This move was beyond Murong Fu's expectation, and he immediately realized: "This old monster pretended to be wounded on his left side, it turned out to be a trick to lure the enemy, and I fell into his tricks!" A trace of regret surged up in his heart: "I Intuit is also arrogant, and underestimated this well-known XingXiu old monster, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge, why bother to take the risk of challenging him in a moment of anger, without planning well in advance." At this time, he did not flinch. There is room for all the internal energy in the whole body to be sent out from the fist.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the inner strength burst out, it would be like a stone sinking into the ocean immediately, and it is unknown where it went.Murong Fu secretly called out: "Ah yo!" He came up to fight Ding ChunQiu, he concentrated his attention all the time, never let the other party's "Great Transformation Technique" attack him, unexpectedly when it happened, it was still difficult to escape.At that time, he was really in a dilemma, if he continued to use his internal strength and resistance, no matter how strong his internal strength was, he would dissipate it, and after a while he would lose all his internal strength and become a useless person; All kinds of unimaginable and powerful poisons from Spring and Autumn will invade the meridians and viscera along the path of his true qi retraction.
Just when he was in a dilemma, at a loss what to do, suddenly he heard a loud voice behind him: "Master has set up a trap cleverly, this brat is in a desperate situation." Murong Fu retreated two steps hastily, with his left palm outstretched, he had already grabbed the Xingxiu disciple's chest live.
His Gusu Murong family's best special skill is a technique of using strength to fight with strength, which is called "Dou Zhuan Xing Xing".Outsiders don't know the details, but they saw that Murong's "use the other's way and return it to the other's body" is amazing. When killing people, they always use the other party's fame and unique skills. Obviously, there are different sects in the world. The Murong family of Gusu knows all the unique skills, and is proficient in all of them.In fact, there are thousands of unique skills in the martial arts, no matter how smart and profound he is, it will be difficult for him to master every unique skill, let alone a unique skill that cannot be mastered overnight.But Murong has this ingenious technique of "Fighting and Star Shifting", no matter what kind of kung fu the opponent uses, he can divert the force and counterattack the opponent himself.
Those who are good at "throat-locking guns" will stab Murong Fu's throat with the gun, and give him a "Dou Zhuan Xing Yi" turn, and the gun will penetrate his own throat, and the method of strength used is all from his own sect. The trick: Those who make good use of the "Broken Arm Knife" swung the knife and cut it out, but cut off their own arm.The weapon is this weapon, and the trick is this trick.As long as they didn't witness Murong's technique of "turning stars and shifting" with their own eyes, no one would have guessed that these people's deaths were actually due to "suicide".The higher the martial arts of the person making the shot, the more ingenious the way of death.If the Murong family was not fighting alone, if they were not sure that they could kill the enemy, they would never use this "fighting and star shifting" kung fu. The Murong family in Gusu is famous all over the world, but no one knows the real kung fu.
Turning the opponent's weapons, fists and feet to make the opponent suffer for himself, the reason is all in the word "rebound".Just like someone punching a stone wall, the heavier the punch, the greater the force on the fist, there is no difference between the severity and strength.It's just that it's easy to transform tangible weapons, blades, fists and feet, but it's extremely difficult to transform intangible and intangible internal energy qigong.Although Murong Fu has practiced this kung fu for many years, he is still limited by his age and has not reached the peak. When he meets Ding Chunqiu and other first-rate masters, he knows that he can't turn back and hurt the opponent with the "Fighting and Star Shifting" technique. Therefore, the unlucky guys who were attacked three times in a row were all disciples of the Xingxiu Sect.He turned around and moved, but it was transferred to a third person.Ding Chunqiu used "Xiaoyao Sanxiao San" secretly, throwing poison in a cup, forcing him to shoot poisoned wine, every time Murong Fu easily found a scapegoat.
When Ding ChunQiu used the "Great Transformation Technique", Murong Fu was unable to transfer it, so that XingXiu disciple was eager to flatter him, so he opened his mouth to show his body shape.Murong Fu was in a hurry, he had no time to think, once he caught that XingXiu disciple, he immediately turned sideways, pushed and changed his strength, and replaced him with himself.He took the risk to use it, and it actually took effect. The old monster Xingxiu originally intended to "transform" Murong Fu's "kung fu", but he didn't know that it was his own disciple's own kung fu that was lost.
Murong Fu succeeded in the attempt, escaped from death, immediately seized the opportunity, never allowed Ding ChunQiu to change his mind, pushed that XingXiu disciple and bumped him into another disciple.Immediately, the second disciple's internal energy quickly dissipated following Ding Chunqiu's "Great Transformation Technique" everywhere.
Ding ChunQiu saw Murong Fu retaliate against his disciples with the method of borrowing force, he was very angry, but he thought: "If I want to protect these disciples who are not good enough, let go of his fist, after I let go, I will fight again It will be extremely difficult to catch him. This kid will definitely be taken away when he sees a good one, and he escapes. I injured five disciples in this battle, and only grabbed half of his sleeve. The Xingxiu faction was defeated. What face is there to show off the Central Plains?" Immediately, his five fingers tightened, and he didn't let go of his fist no matter what.
Murong Fu took a few steps back, and stuck another Xingxiu disciple to let Ding Chunqiu dissipate his internal energy.In an instant, the three disciples were paralyzed on the ground, as if their blood had been sucked dry by a vampire.The rest of the people were terrified, seeing Murong Fu retreating again, they all cried out in surprise and ran away one after another.
Murong Fu shook his arm, the three Xingxiu disciples who were stuck together flew up, and the third person hit another person.Before the man could finish his exclamation, his body went limp and paralyzed.
The rest of Xingxiu's disciples have seen that as long as the master doesn't let go of Murong Fu, and this kid keeps using his strength to hurt others, the skills of the group of disciples will inevitably be "transformed" by the Xingxiu old fairy, and maybe it will be their turn next. But apart from being frightened, no one dared to rush out the door, they just ran around in the shop to avoid being poisoned.
How big is that small shop? With a wave of Murong Fu's arm, he bumped into three or four Xingxiu disciples, and seven or eight of them were stuck together. It's easier.At this moment, he has gained the upper hand, but he is worried, although there are many XingXiu disciples, they will run out, and when everyone has been "transformed" by Ding ChunQiu, what will he find to replace the dead ghost?He twitched his body and unleashed his real strength, trying to break away from Ding Chunqiu's grasp.
Ding ChunQiu saw his disciples sticking to each other, like fish strung together by willow sticks, those who were not stuck dodged in embarrassment, no one praised him anymore.Feeling ashamed and angry, he grasped Murong Fu's fist even more tightly, thinking: "It doesn't matter if all these incompetent disciples are dead, as long as this kid's skill can be absorbed, and Xingxiu Old Immortal can beat Gusu Murong, then the world will be invincible." Shocking thing. If you want to recruit disciples, are you afraid that there will be fewer braggarts in the world?" But there was no trace of anger on his face, and his expression seemed very leisurely, with a confident look.
The XingXiu group disciples were hoping that the master would let Murong Fu go, so that they would not lose all their internal energy, but seeing that he was still unmoved, knowing that they would not be spared, they all exclaimed and wailed, but under the protection of the master Under the coercion, no one dared to escape, or begged the master to let go of this "boy who has fallen into the hands of the old fairy" for the time being.
Ding ChunQiu was at a loss for what to do at the moment, he wandered around, he saw that only two of the disciples did not hide from the crowd.One is You Tanzhi, squatting in the corner of the room, buried the iron head between his arms, obviously very scared.The other is Ah Zi, with a pale complexion, huddled in another corner to watch the fight.
Ding Chunqiu shouted: "AhZi!" AhZi was fascinated when she heard Master calling out, she was stunned for a while, and said: "Master, you have shown your power..." After only half a sentence, he smiled awkwardly, I can't go on.Master and his elders really showed their supernatural power at this time, but they hurt their own disciples, how to praise them is hard to describe.
Ding ChunQiu couldn't help Murong Fu, he was already extremely anxious, seeing AhZi's sarcasm in his smile, he became even more furious, with a wave of his left sleeve, he picked up the two chopsticks on the table, and rushed towards both of AZi Shoot in the eye.
Ah Zi shouted: "Ah yo!" She hastily stretched out her hand to knock down the chopsticks, but finally she was a step too late, the tip of the chopsticks hit her eyes, she felt a tingling tingle, she stretched out her sleeves to rub it, opened her eyes, and saw her eyes. All the white shadows swayed back and forth, and the white shadows disappeared for a moment, and it was already pitch black.
She was so frightened that she lost her mind and shouted: "I...my eyes...my eyes...can't see!"
Suddenly a burst of cold air hit her body, followed by an arm stretched out to wrap around her waist, and someone ran out holding her.AhZi shouted: "I... my eyes..." There was a bang behind her, like two palms intersecting, AhZi felt as if she was flying up like a cloud, and in a daze, she vaguely heard Murong Fu Shouted: "Stop accompanying me. Xingxiu old monster, I will..."
AhZi's body was bone-chillingly cold, with the wind whistling beside her ears, a man who was colder than ice hugged her and ran wildly.She was so cold that she gritted her teeth and moaned, "It's so cold...my eyes...cold, so cold." The man said: "Yes, yes. Let's escape to the woods over there, and the old fairy Xingxiu will not find us." He was still running wildly while speaking.After a while, AhZi felt that he stopped and put her down gently, there was a rustling sound under her body, as if she was placed on a pile of dead leaves.The man said: "Girl, you...how are your eyes?" AhZi only felt severe pain in her eyes, she desperately opened her eyes wide, but she couldn't see anything, the world turned into a ball of black paint, only then did she realize that her eyes had been blinded by Ding ChunQiu's poison, she suddenly burst into tears, crying out loud. Said: "I... my eyes are blind, I... I'm blind!" The man comforted softly: "Maybe it will be cured." Ah Zi said angrily: "Old Monster Ding's poison is so powerful, how can he be cured well? You lied! I'm blind, I'm blind!" Then he cried again.The man said: "There is a small stream over there, let's go and wash it, and wash away the poison in the eyes." He reached out to grab her right hand and gently pulled her up. AhZi felt that his palm was extremely cold, she couldn't help but shrink back, and the man let go of his hand.AhZi took two steps, staggered and nearly fell down.The man said: "Be careful!" He held her hand again.This time Ah Zi didn't hold back anymore, and let him lead to the stream.The man said: "Don't be afraid, this is the stream." AhZi knelt by the stream, scooping up the stream water with both hands to wash her eyes.The cool stream touched the eyeballs, and the pain gradually subsided, but the sky was dark, and there was no light in front of the eyes.All of a sudden, despair, sadness, anger, helplessness, and all kinds of feelings came together. She sat down on the ground, crying loudly, beating her feet against the stream, crying: "You lied, you lied, I I'm blind, I'm blind!" The man said: "Girl, you don't have to be sad. I won't leave you, you...you can rest assured. " Ah Zi felt relieved, and asked: "You... who are you?" The man said: "I... I..." Ah Zi said: "I'm sorry! Thank you for saving my life. Your surname is Gao?" Then Humanity: "I... I... the girl doesn't recognize me." Ah Zi said: "You don't even want to tell me your name, and you lied to me that you won't leave me, I... I'm blind, I... ...I'd better die." He cried again. The man said: "Girl must not die. I... I will never leave you. As long as the girl allows me to be with you, I will always... always be by your side." Ah Zi said: "I don't believe it! I don’t believe it! You lied to me, you lied to me not to seek death. I’m going to die, I’m blind, what else am I going to do?” The man said: “I will never lie to you, if I leave you, I will die badly. "The tone is anxious, and it seems extremely sincere.Ah Zi said: "Then who are you?" The man said: "I... I am Juxianzhuang... No, no, my surname is Zhuang, and my name is Juxian." The man who saved Azi was none other than You Tanzhi, the young owner of Juxian Village. AhZi said: "It turned out to be Zhuang... Senior Zhuang, thank you for saving me." You TanZhi said: "I was able to save you from the evil hand of XingXiu old fairy, I am very happy, you don't need to thank me. I am not What kind of senior, I am only a few years older than you." Ah Zi said: "Well, then I will call you Brother Zhuang." You Tanzhi was filled with joy in his heart, tremblingly said: "This... is not dare to be." AhZi said: "Brother Zhuang, I beg you for one thing." You TanZhi said: "Don't ask for anything, whatever the girl orders, I will try my best to do it for you even if I risk my life. "Ah Zi smiled slightly and said: "You and I are strangers, why are you so kind to me?" You Tanzhi said: "Yes, yes, we are strangers, I have never met you, and you have never Pass me. This time... today is the first time we meet." Ah Zi said sadly: "Are you still talking about meeting? I will never see you again." As she spoke, she couldn't help but shed tears again. You TanZhi hurriedly said: "That doesn't matter. It would be better if you don't see me." AhZi asked: "Why?" You TanZhi said: "I... I look very ugly, if you see me, you will definitely Don’t be happy.” Ah Zi smiled sweetly, and said, “You’re cheating again. I’ve seen many of the weirdest people in the world. I have a slave who wears an iron cap on his head, which can never be removed Yes, it's ugly. If you see it, you'll laugh for three days and three nights. Do you want to see it?" You TanZhi tremblingly said: "No, no! I don't want to watch it." He couldn't help but took two steps back. Ah Zi said: "Your martial arts are so good, when you hug me and run, you are almost as fast as my brother-in-law, but you are so timid, you don't even want to see a man with a steel head. Brother Zhuang, that man with a steel head is very interesting , I told him to do somersaults for you, and let him stick his iron head into the cage of a lion and a tiger, and let the wild beasts bite his iron head. Then I asked someone to use him as a kite and fly in the sky, that would be interesting. " You TanZhi couldn't help shivering and said repeatedly: "I don't want to watch it, I really don't want to watch it." AhZi sighed: "Okay. You just said that no matter what I beg you to do, you will do it for me even if you don't want your life. It turns out it's all a lie." You TanZhi said: "No, No! I won't lie to you. What does the girl want me to do?" Ah Zi said: "I want to go back to my brother-in-law, he is in Nanjing, Liao Kingdom. Brother Zhuang, please take me there." In an instant, You TanZhi's mind was in chaos, he couldn't speak anymore. AhZi said: "What? Are you unwilling?" You TanZhi said: "No...not, but...but I don't want...don't want to go to Nanjing of Liao Kingdom." AZi said: "I told you to go and see My playful iron-headed clown, you refused. I asked you to take me back to my brother-in-law, but you refused. I had no choice but to go alone." As he spoke, he stood up slowly, stretched out his hands, and explored the way forward . You TanZhi said: "I'll accompany you! How can you... how can you do it by yourself?"
You TanZhi held AhZi's soft and slippery little hand, and led her out of the woods, he just thought in his heart: "As long as I can hold her hand and walk slowly like this, I will go to the 18th floor of hell, and so will I." Unlimited joy." As soon as he reached the main road, a group of beggars came head-on.The first person was tall, thin and handsome, he recognized Quan Guanqing, the leader of the Beggar Clan's Dazhi branch, You Tanzhi thought: "This person was injured by my master that day, but he didn't die." He didn't want to meet with them, so he was busy Pulling AhZi off the main road, she walked into the wasteland.AhZi noticed that the ground was uneven, and asked, "What's the matter?" Before You Tanzhi could answer, Quan Guanqing had already seen the two of them, rushed to stop him, and shouted sharply: "Sneaky, what are you doing? You...you look weird, what is it?" You TanZhi was in a hurry, thought: "As long as he calls out the word 'Iron Head Man', Miss AZi will know who I am immediately, and will never pay attention to me again. Even if she still wants me to send her back to Nanjing, it's okay I will never let me hold her hand again." At a moment's hesitation, he suddenly knelt down, bowed several times, and made big gestures, asking Quan Guanqing not to reveal his truth. Quan Guanqing couldn't understand the meaning of his gesture, he wondered: "What are you doing?" You Tanzhi pointed at Ah Zi, waved his hand, pointed to his own mouth, waved his hand, and bowed a few more times.Quan Guanqing saw that Ah Zi's eyes were blind, he vaguely understood that the iron-headed man begged him not to speak, just as he was surprised, all the disciples of the Beggar Sect rushed towards him. One person pointed at You Tanzhi's head, laughed loudly, and shouted: "It's really strange, this iron..." You Tanzhi leaned forward and slapped out his palm.The Beggar Clan disciple hastily raised his hand to block him, there were a few crackling sounds, the man's arm bones and ribs were all broken, he flew backward about Zhang Xu, fell to the ground, and died instantly. All the disciples were shocked and angry, five of them attacked You TanZhi at the same time.You TanZhi danced with both palms, hitting and clapping indiscriminately.His martial arts are low, and he is far inferior to these Beggar Clan disciples, but his palms are all over the place, and he can only hear "Crack, Crack!" "Ouch!" When they come out, they all hit the ground and die.The others were horrified, they surrounded You TanZhi and AhZi, they dared not go forward to attack again. You Tanzhi suddenly knelt down to Quan Guanqing again, bowed a few times, made gestures again and again, pointing at Ah Zi, pointing at his own iron head, he kept shaking his hands. Quan Guanqing saw that he raised his hand to kill six beggars in a row, and his skill was so deep that it was rare in his life. If he stepped forward to make a move, he would be unlucky, but he knelt down to him again, which was really unimaginable. Pointing to Ah Zi, pointing to his iron head, pointing to his own mouth, and shaking his hands.You TanZhi was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly.Quan Guanqing had a thought: "This man's martial arts are extremely high, but he is deeply afraid that I will reveal his secrets. It seems that he can use this matter to blackmail him and take it for me." Immediately he said to his disciples: "Everyone Don't talk, don't talk to anyone." You TanZhi felt even more happy, and bowed to him a few more times. AhZi asked: "Brother Zhuang, who are they? How many people have you killed?" You TanZhi said: "It's a good friend of the Beggar Gang, everyone had some misunderstanding. He is a great man with great benevolence and righteousness, and I have always admired him very much. I... I accidentally injured some of their brothers, and I am really sorry." He said and bowed to the group of beggars. Ah Zi said: "Are there any good people in the Beggar Clan? Brother Zhuang, your martial arts are so high, why don't you kill them all, so that my brother-in-law can vent his anger." You TanZhi hurriedly said: "No, no, that is a misunderstanding. I am good friends with Master Quan. You wait here for me, and I will go there with Master Quan to explain the festival." He said and waved to Quan Guanqing . Quan Guanqing was even more surprised when he heard that he recognized him, but he seemed to have no malice, and immediately followed him for more than ten feet. You TanZhi saw that he was far away from AZi, she was determined not to hear what she said, but he was afraid that the crowd of beggars would hurt her, he dared not go any further, so he stopped, cupped his hands and said: "Master Quan, I promise you to hide from brother The truth, great kindness and great virtue, never dare to forget." Quan Guanqing said: "The reason for this is completely incomprehensible, brother. Your surname is Gao?" You Tanzhi said: "My brother's surname is Zhuang, and his name is Zhuang Juxian. Because of his unfortunate life, he put this laoshizi on his head. Can't let this girl know." Quan Guanqing was very concerned when he saw that he was looking at Ah Zi with both eyes when he spoke, and he already guessed seven or eight points in his heart: "This little girl is elegant and beautiful, this iron head man must fall in love with her." For fear that she would know his iron-headed grotesque." He asked, "How do you know brother Zhuang?" You TanZhi said: "Your gang's great wisdom split up the meeting to discuss the election of the gang leader, brother happened to be at the side, and I heard someone calling Quan helm master. Brother missed today and hurt a few brothers of your gang, it's really...it's not right, it's not right. Please forgive me, Quan Helmsman." Quan Guanqing said: "Everyone has misunderstood, don't mind. Brother Zhuang, you are wearing this thing on your head, brother is determined not to mention it, and later brother will instruct his subordinates, no one should leak any information." You Tanzhi was so grateful Weeping, kept bowing, and said: "Thank you, thank you very much." Quan Guanqing said: "But brother Zhuang and this girl are walking hand in hand on the road, it is inevitable that someone will see them, they will make a fuss, call out, and brother Zhuang will kill that person , it’s already too late.” You TanZhi said: "Yes, yes." He saved Ah Zi himself, his mind wandered, he never thought about it, at this moment he heard what Quan Guanqing said was good, he couldn't help losing his mind, he murmured: "I...I I can only go with her to hide in the deep mountains where there is no one.” Quan Guanqing smiled and said: "This girl is afraid that she will become suspicious, and after Brother Zhuang and this girl are married, she will find out sooner or later." You TanZhi's chest felt hot, he said: "I don't want to become a husband... a couple, that... that's not possible, how... how can I get married? But... but... that's really difficult. " Quan Guanqing said: "Brother Zhuang, I promise you that you will never give up and say that brother is your good friend. If a good friend has a difficult situation, he should give you some advice. Let's go to the front town together and hire a car Big car, if you sit in the car with this girl, then no one will be able to see you." You TanZhi was overjoyed, thinking of being able to ride in the same car with AhZi, he is really not as good as a god, he hurriedly said: "Yes , Yes! Master Quan’s idea is really high.” Quan Guanqing said: "Then let's find a way to get rid of the iron hat of Brother Zhuang. Brother patted his chest to guarantee that this girl will never know about this embarrassing incident of Brother Zhuang. What do you think?" With a puff sound, You Tanzhi fell to his knees and kowtowed to Quan Guanqing, the iron head hit the ground with a thumping sound. Quan Guanqing knelt down to return the salute, and said: "Brother Zhuang makes this great gift, how dare you be a brother? If Brother Zhuang doesn't give up, how about we become Jinlan brothers?" You Tanzhi said happily: "Wonderful, wonderful! Being brothers I don’t understand anything, and I really wish for a resourceful elder brother like you to show me the way.” Quan Guanqing laughed loudly, and said: “As a elder brother, I’m not polite to say how old you are. You said 'brother'."
When Ding Chunqiu and Su Xinghe were fighting upside down, Duan Yu's eyes never left Wang Yuyan's body, but Wang Yuyan's eyes were always looking at his cousin Murong Fu affectionately.Because of this, the eyes of Duan Wang and the two never met. After Ding ChunQiu was defeated and escaped, Xu Zhu met with Xiaoyao Sect disciples, Murong Fu and his party left, Duan Yu naturally followed behind Wang YuYan. Coming down to Deling, Murong Fu clasped his hands to Duan Yu and said, "Brother Duan, it's an honor to meet you today, let's say goodbye, there will be a later date." Duan Yu said: "Yes, yes. It's an honor to meet you today, let's say goodbye , there will be a period later." But his gaze was still on Wang Yuyan.Murong Fu was upset, he snorted, turned around and left.Duan Yu reluctantly followed. Bao BuTong blocked Duan Yu with both hands, and said: "Young Master Duan, thank you Bao for your help today." Duan Yu said: "You are welcome." Bao BuTong said: "Thank you for this matter. However, we owe nothing to each other. It is rude of you to look at our Miss Wang so intently, and it is even more rude if you want to follow up now. You are a scholar, do you know that "see no evil, do no evil" Is it okay? Bao has no strength at all at the moment, but he still has the strength to curse people." Duan Yu sighed, shook his head, and said: "In this case, Brother Bao is still saying 'Say no evil', and I will say 'Indecent words' Don't follow me." Bao BuTong laughed and said, "That's right!" Turning around, he followed Murong Fu and others. Duan Yu watched Wang Yuyan's back being covered by the forest, he was still in a daze, Zhu Danchen said: "My lord, let's go!" Duan Yu said: "Yes, it's time to go." But he didn't move, until Zhu Danchen even After urging him three times, he got on the mount that Gu Ducheng had brought.他身在马背之上，目光却兀自瞧着王语嫣的去路。 段誉那日将书信交与全冠清后，便即驰去拜见段正淳。父子久别重逢，都是不胜之喜。阮星竹更对这位小王子竭力奉承。阿紫却已不别而行，兄妹俩未得相见。段正淳和阮星竹以阿朱、阿紫之事说来尴尬，都没向他提起。 过得十余日，崔百泉、过彦之二人也寻到相聚。他师叔侄在苏州琴韵小筑和段誉失散，到处寻访，不得踪迹，后来从河南伏牛山本门中人处得到讯息，大理镇南王到了河南，便在伏牛山左近落脚，当即赶来，见到段誉安然无恙，甚感欣慰。 段誉九死一生之余，在父亲身边得享天伦之乐，自是欢喜，但思念王语嫣之情却只有与日俱增，待得棋会之期将届，得了父亲允可，带同古笃诚等赴会。果然不负所望，在棋会中见到了意中人，但这一会徒添愁苦，到底是否还是不见的好，他自己可也说不上来了。 一行人驰出二十余里，大路上尘头起处，十余骑疾奔而来，正是大理国三公范骅、华赫艮、巴天石、以及所率大理群士。一行人驰到近处，下马向段誉行礼。原来众人奉了段正淳之命，前来接应，深恐聋哑先生的棋会之中有何凶险。众人听说段延庆也曾与会，幸好没对段誉下手，都是手心中捏了一把汗。 朱丹臣悄悄向范骅等三人说知，段誉在棋会中如何见到姑苏慕容家的一位美貌姑娘，如何对她目不转睛的呆视，如何失魂落魄，又想跟去，幸好给对方斥退。范骅等相视而笑，心中转的是同样念头：“小王子风流成性，家学渊源。他如能由此忘了对自己亲妹子木姑娘的相思之情，倒是一件大大的好事。” 傍晚时分，一行人在客店中吃了晚饭。范骅说起江南之行，说道：“公子爷，这慕容氏一家诡秘得很，以后遇上了可得小心在意。”段誉道：“怎么？”范骅道：“这次我们三人奉了王爷将令，前赴苏州燕子坞慕容氏家中查察，要瞧瞧有什么蛛丝马迹，少林派玄悲大师到底是不是慕容氏害死的。”崔百泉与过彦之甚是关切，齐声问道：“三位可查到了什么没有？”范骅道：“我们三人没明着求见，只暗中查察，慕容氏家里没男女主人，只剩下些婢仆。偌大几座院庄，却是个小姑娘叫做阿碧的在主持家务。”段誉点头道：“嗯，这位阿碧姑娘人挺好的。三位没伤了她罢？” 范骅微笑道：“没有，我们接连查了几晚，慕容氏庄上什么地方都查到了，半点异状也没有。巴兄弟忽然想到，那个番僧鸠摩智将公子爷从大理请到江南来，说是要去祭慕容先生的墓……” 崔百泉插口道：“是啊，慕容庄上那个小丫头，却说什么也不肯带那番僧去祭墓，幸好这样，公子爷才得脱却那番僧的毒手。”段誉点头道：“阿朱、阿碧两位姑娘，可真是好人。不知她们现下怎样了。” 巴天石微笑道：“我们接连三晚，都在窗外见到那阿碧姑娘在缝一件男子的长袍，不住自言自语：'公子爷，侬在外头冷（左口右伐）？侬啥辰光才回来？'公子爷，她是缝给你的罢？”段誉忙道：“不是，不是。她是缝给慕容公子的。”巴天石道：“是啊，我瞧这小丫头神魂颠倒的，老是想着她的公子爷，我们三个穿房入舍，她全没察觉。”他说这番话，是要段誉不可学他爹爹，到处留情，阿碧心中想的只是慕容公子，段公子对她多想无益。 段誉叹了口气，说道：“慕容公子俊雅无匹，那也难怪，那也难怪！又何况他们是中表之亲，自幼儿青梅竹马……” 范骅、巴天石等面面相觑，均想：“小丫头和公子爷青梅竹马倒也犹可，又怎会有中表之亲？”哪想得到他是扯到了王语嫣身上。 崔百泉问道：“范司马、巴司空想到那番僧要去祭慕容先生的墓，不知这中间有什么道理？可跟我师兄之死有什么关连？”范骅道：“我提到这件事，正是要请大伙儿一起参详参详。华大哥一听到这个'墓'字，登时手痒，说道：'说不定这老儿的墓中有什么古怪，咱们掘进去瞧瞧。'我和巴兄都不大赞成，姑苏慕容氏名满天下，咱们段家去掘他的墓，太也说不过去。华兄弟却道：'咱们悄悄打地道进去，神不知，鬼不觉，有谁知道了？'我们二人拗他不过，也就听他的。那墓便葬在庄子之后，甚是僻静隐秘，还真不容易找到。我们三人掘进墓圹，打开棺材，崔兄，你道见到什么？” 崔百泉和过彦之同时站起，问道：“什么？” 范骅道：“棺材里是空的，没有死人。” 崔过二人张大了嘴，半晌合不拢来。过了良久，崔百泉一拍大腿，说道：“那慕容博没有死。他叫儿子在中原到处露面，自己却在几千里外杀人，故弄玄虚。我师哥……我师哥定是慕容博这恶贼杀的！” 范骅摇头道：“崔兄曾说，这慕容博武功深不可测，他要杀人，尽可使别的手段，为什么定要留下'以彼之道，还施彼身'的功夫，好让人人知道是他姑苏慕容氏下的手？若想武林中知道他的厉害，却为什么又要装假死？要不是华大哥有这能耐，又有谁能查知他这个秘密？” 崔百泉颓然坐倒，本来似已见到了光明，霎时间眼前又是一团迷雾。 段誉道：“天下各门各派的绝技成千成万，要一一明白其中的来龙去脉，当真是难如登天，可偏偏她有这等聪明智慧，什么武功都是了如指掌……” 崔百泉道：“是啊，好像我师哥这招'天灵千裂'，是我伏牛派的不传之秘，他又怎么懂得，竟以这记绝招害了我师哥性命？” 段誉摇头道：“她当然懂得，不过她手无缚鸡之力，虽然懂得各家各派的武功，自己却是一招也不会使的，更不会去害人性命。” 众人面面相觑，过了半晌，一齐缓缓摇头。
阿紫双眼被丁春秋毒瞎，游坦之奋不顾身的抢了她逃走。丁春秋心神微分，指上内功稍松，慕容复得此良机，立即运起“斗转星移”绝技，噗的一声，丁春秋五指抓住了一名弟子的手臂。慕容复拳头脱出掌握，飞身窜出，哈哈大笑，叫道：“少陪了，星宿老怪，后会有期。”展开轻功，头也不回的去了。 这一役他伤了星宿派二十余名弟子，大获全胜，终于出了给丁春秋暗害而险些自刎的恶气，但最后得能全身而退，实是出于侥幸，路上回思适才情景，当真不寒而栗。与王语嫣、邓百川一行会齐后，在客店中深居简出，让邓百川等人养伤。 过得数日，包不同、风波恶两人体力尽复，跟着邓百川与公冶乾也已痊可。六人说起不知阿朱的下落，都是好生记挂，当下商定就近去洛阳打探讯息。 在洛阳不得丝毫消息，于是又向西查去。这一日六人急于赶道，错过了宿头，直行到天黑，仍是在山道之中，越走道旁的乱草越长。风波恶道：“咱们只怕走错了路，前边这个弯多半转得不对。”邓百川道：“且找个山洞或是破庙，露宿一宵。” 风波恶当先奔出去找安身之所，放眼道路崎岖，乱石嶙峋。他自己什么地方都能躺下来呼呼大睡，但要找一个可供王语嫣宿息的所在，却着实不易。一口气奔出数里，转过一个山坡，忽见右首山谷中露出一点灯火，风波恶大喜，回首叫道：“这边有人家。” 慕容复等闻声奔到。公冶乾喜道：“看来只是家猎户山农，但给王姑娘一人安睡的地方总是有的。”六人向着灯火快步走去。那灯火相隔甚遥，走了好一会仍是闪闪烁烁，瞧不清楚屋宇。风波恶喃喃骂道：“他奶奶的，这灯可有点儿邪门。”突然邓百川低声喝道：“且住，公子爷，你瞧这是盏绿灯。”慕容复凝目望去，果见那灯火发出绿油油的光芒，迥不同寻常灯火的色作暗红或昏黄。六人加快脚步，向绿灯又驱前里许，便看得更加清楚了。 包不同大声道：“邪魔外道，在此聚会！” 凭这五人的机智武功，对江湖上不论哪一个门派帮会，都绝无忌惮，但各人立时想到：“今日与王姑娘在一起，还是别生事端的为是。”包不同与风波恶久未与人打斗生事，霎时间心痒难搔，跃跃欲试，但立即自行克制。风波恶道：“今日走了整天路，可有点倦了，这个臭地方不太好，退回去罢！”慕容复微微一笑，心想：“风四哥居然改了性子，当真难得。”说道：“表妹，那边不干不净的，咱们走回头路罢。”王语嫣不明白其中道理，但表哥既然这么说，也就欣然乐从。 六人转过身来，只走出几步，忽然一个声音隐隐约约的飞了过来：“既知邪魔外道在此聚会，你们这几只不成气候的妖魔鬼怪，又怎不过来凑凑热闹？”这声音忽高忽低，若断若续，钻入耳中令人极不舒服，但每个字都听得清清楚楚。 慕容复哼了一声，知道包不同所说“邪魔外道，在此聚会”那句话，已给对方听了去，从对方这几句传音中听来，说话之人内力修为倒是不浅，但也不见得是真正第一流的功夫。他左手一拂，说道：“没空跟他纠缠，随他去罢！”不疾不徐地从来路退回。 那声音又道：“小畜生，口出狂言，便想这般挟着尾巴逃走吗？真要逃走，也得向老祖宗磕上三百个响头再走。” 风波恶忍耐不住，止步不行，低声道：“公子爷，我去教训教训这狂徒。”慕容复摇摇头，道：“他们不知咱们是谁，由他们去罢！”风波恶道：“是！” 六人再走十余步，那声音又飘了过来：“雄的要逃走，也就罢了，这雌雏儿可得留下，陪老祖宗解解闷气。” 五人听到对方居然出言辱及王语嫣，人人脸上变色，一齐站定，转过身来。只听得那声音又道：“怎么样？乖乖地快把雌儿送上来，免得老祖宗……” 他刚说到那个“宗”字，邓百川气吐丹田，喝道：“宗！”他这个“宗”字和对方的“宗”字双音相混，声震山谷。各人耳中嗡嗡大响，但听得“啊”的一声惨呼，从绿灯处传了过来。静夜之中，邓百川那“宗”字余音未绝，夹着这声惨叫，令人毛骨悚然。 邓百川这声断喝，乃是以更高内力震伤了对方。从那人这声惨呼听来，受伤还真不轻，说不定已然一命呜呼。那人惨叫之声将歇，但听得嗤的一声响，一枚绿色火箭射向天空，砰的一下炸了开来，映得半边天空都成深碧之色。 风波恶道：“一不做，二不休，扫荡了这批妖魔鬼怪的巢穴再说。”慕容复点了点头，道：“咱们让人一步，本来求息事宁人。既然干了，便干到底。”六人向那绿火奔去。 慕容复怕王语嫣受惊吃亏，放慢脚步，陪在她身边，只听得包不同和风波恶两声呼叱，已和人动上了手。跟着绿火微光中三条黑影飞了起来，拍拍拍三响，撞向山壁，显是给包风二人干净利落的料理了。 慕容复奔到绿灯之下，只见邓百川和公冶乾站在一只青铜大鼎之旁，脸色凝重。铜鼎旁躺着一个老者，鼎中有一道烟气上升，细如一线，却其直如矢。王语嫣道：“是川西碧磷洞桑土公一派。”邓百川点头道：“姑娘果然渊博。”包不同回过身来，问道：“你怎知道？这烧狼烟报讯之法，几千年前就有了，未必就只川西碧磷洞……”他几句话还没说完，公冶乾指着铜鼎的一足，示意要他观看。 包不同弯下腰来，晃火折一看，只见鼎足上铸着一个“桑”字，乃是几条小蛇、蜈蚣之形盘成，铜绿斑斓，宛是一件古物。包不同明知王语嫣说得对了，还要强辞夺理：“就算这只铜鼎是川西桑土公一派，焉知他们不是去借来偷来的？何况常言道'赝鼎、赝鼎'，十只鼎倒有九只是假的。” 慕容复等心下都有些嘀咕：“此处离川西甚远，难道也算是桑土公一派的地界么？”他们都知道川西碧磷洞桑土公一派都是苗人、瑶人，行事与中土武林人士大不相同，擅于下毒，江湖人士对之颇为忌惮，好在他们与世无争，只要不闯入川西瑶山地界，他们不会轻易侵犯旁人。慕容复、邓百川等人自也不来怕他什么桑土公，只是跟这种邪毒怪诞的化外之人结仇，实在无聊，而纠缠上了身，也甚麻烦。 慕容复微一沉吟，说道：“这是非之地，早早离去的为妙。”眼见铜鼎旁躺着的那老者已是气息奄奄，却兀自睁大了眼，气愤愤的望着各人，自便是适才发话肇祸之人了。慕容复向包不同点了点头，嘴角向那老人一歪。包不同会意，反手抓起那根悬着绿灯的竹杆，倒过杆头，连灯带杆，噗的一声，插入那老者胸口，绿灯登时熄灭。王语嫣“啊”的一声惊呼。公冶乾道：“量小非君子，无毒不丈夫！这叫做杀人灭口，以免后患。”飞起右足，踢倒了铜鼎。慕容复拉着王语嫣的手，斜刺向左首窜了出去。 只奔出十余丈，黑暗中嗤嗤两声，金刃劈风，一刀一剑从长草中劈了出来。慕容复袍袖一拂，借力打力，左首那人的一刀砍在右首那人头上，右首那人一剑刺入了左首之人心窝，刹那间料理了偷袭的二人，脚下却丝毫不停。公冶乾赞道：“公子爷，好功夫！” 慕容复微微一笑，继续前行，右掌一挥，迎面冲来一名敌人骨碌碌地滚下山坡，左掌击出，左前方一名敌人“啊”的一声大叫，口喷鲜血。黑暗之中，突然闻到一阵腥臭之气，跟着微有锐风扑面，慕容复急凝掌风，将这两件不知名的暗器反击了出去，但听得“啊”的一下惊呼，敌人已中了他自己所发的歹毒暗器。 黑暗之中，蓦地陷入重围，也不知敌人究有多少，只是随手杀了数人，杀到第六人时，慕容复暗暗心惊，寻思：“起初三人多半是川西桑土公一派，后来三人的武功却显是另属不同的三派，冤家愈结愈多，大是不妙。” 只听得邓百川叫道：“大伙儿并肩往'听香水榭'闯啊！”“听香水榭”是姑苏燕子坞中的一个庄子，位于西首，是慕容复的侍婢阿朱所居。邓百川说向听香水榭闯去，便是往西退却，以免让敌人知道。 慕容复一听，便即会意，但其时四下里一片漆黑，星月无光，难以分辨方位，不知西首却在何方。他微一凝神，听得邓百川厚重的掌风在身后右侧响了两下，当即拉住王语嫣，斜退三步，向邓百川身旁靠去，只听得拍拍两声轻响，邓百川和敌人又对了两掌。从掌声之中听来，敌人着实是个好手。跟着邓百川吐气扬声，“嘿”的一声呼喝。慕容复知道邓百川使出一招“石破天惊”的掌力，对方多半抵挡不住。果然那人失声惊呼，声音尖锐，但呼声越响越下，犹如沉入地底，跟着是石块滚动、树枝折断之声。慕容复微微一惊：“这人失足掉入了深谷。适才绿光之下，没见到有什么山谷啊。幸好邓大哥将这人先行打入深谷，否则黑暗中一脚踏了个空，可就糟了。” 便在此时，左首高坡上有个声音飘了过来：“何方高人，到万仙大会来捣乱？当真将三十六洞洞主、七十二岛岛主，都不放在眼内吗？” 慕容复等都轻轻“啊”的一声。什么“三十六洞洞主，七十二岛岛主”的名头，他们倒也听到过的，但所谓“洞主，岛主”，只不过是一批既不属任何门派、又不隶什么帮会的旁门左道之士。这些人武功有高有低，人品有善有恶，人人独来独往，各行其是，相互不通声气，也便成不了什么气候，江湖上向来不予重视。只知他们有的散处东海、黄海中的海岛，有的在昆仑、祁连深山中隐居，近年来销声匿迹，毫无作为，谁也没加留神，没想到竟会在这里出现。 慕容复朗声道：“在下朋友六人，乘夜赶路，不知众位在此相聚，无意中多有冒犯，谨此谢过。黑暗之中，事出误会，双方一笑置之便了，请各位借道。”他这几句话不亢不卑，并不吐露身分来历，对误杀对方数人之事，也赔了罪。 突然之间，四下里哈哈、嘿嘿、呵呵、哼哼笑声大作，越笑人数越多。初时不过十余人发笑，到后来四面八方都有人加入大笑，听声音不下五六百人，有的便在近处，有的却似在数里之外。 慕容复听对方声势如此浩大，又想到那人说什么“万仙大会”，心道：“今晚倒足了霉，误打误撞的，闯进这些旁门左道之士的大聚会中来啦。我迄今没吐露姓名，还是一走了之的为是，免得闹到不可收拾。何况寡不敌众，咱们六人怎对付得了这数百人？” 众人哄笑声中，高坡上那人道：“你这人说话轻描淡写，把事情看得忒也易了。你们六人已出手伤了咱们好几位兄弟，万仙大会群仙假如就此放你们走路，三十六洞和七十二岛的脸皮，却往哪里搁去？” 慕容复定下神来，凝目四顾，只见前后左右的山坡、山峰、山坳、山脊各处，影影绰绰的都是人影，黑暗中自瞧不清各人的身形面貌。这些人本来不知是在哪里，突然之间，都如从地底下涌了出来一般。这时邓百川、公冶乾、包不同、风波恶四人都已聚在慕容复与王语嫣身周卫护，但在这数百人的包围之下，只不过如大海中的一叶小舟而已。
慕容复和邓百川等生平经历过无数大阵大仗，见了这等情势，却也不禁心中发毛，寻思：“这些人古里古怪，十个八个自不足为患，几百人聚在一起，可着实不易对付。” 慕容复气凝丹田，朗声说道：“常言道不知者不罪。三十六洞洞主，七十二岛岛主的大名，在下也素有所闻，决不敢故意得罪。川西碧磷洞桑土公、藏边虬龙洞玄黄子、北海玄冥岛岛主章达夫先生，想来都在这里了。在下无意冒犯，尚请恕罪则个。” 左首一个粗豪的声音呵呵笑道：“你提一提咱们的名字，就想这般轻易混了出去吗？嘿嘿，嘿嘿！” 慕容复心头有气，说道：“在下敬重各位是长辈，先礼后兵，将客气话说在头里。难道我慕容复便怕了各位不成？” 只听得四周许多人都是“啊”的一声，显是听到了“慕容复”三字颇为震动。那粗豪的声音道：“是'以彼之道，还施彼身'的姑苏慕容氏么？”慕容复道：“不敢，正是区区在下。”那人道：“姑苏葛容氏可不是泛泛之辈。掌灯！大伙儿见上一见！” 他一言出口，突然间东南角上升起了一盏黄灯，跟着西首和西北角上各有红灯升起。霎时之间，四面八方都有灯火升起，有的是灯笼，有的是火把，有的是孔明灯，有的是松明柴草，各家洞主、岛主所携来的灯火颇不相同，有的粗鄙简陋，有的却十分工细，先前都不知藏在哪里。灯火忽明忽暗的映照在各人脸上，奇幻莫名。 这些人有男有女，有俊有丑，既有僧人，亦有道士，有的大袖飘飘，有的窄衣短打，有的是长须飞舞的老翁，有的是
AhZi's body was bone-chillingly cold, with the wind whistling beside her ears, a man who was colder than ice hugged her and ran wildly.She was so cold that she gritted her teeth and moaned, "It's so cold...my eyes...cold, so cold." The man said: "Yes, yes. Let's escape to the woods over there, and the old fairy Xingxiu will not find us." He was still running wildly while speaking.After a while, AhZi felt that he stopped and put her down gently, there was a rustling sound under her body, as if she was placed on a pile of dead leaves.The man said: "Girl, you...how are your eyes?" AhZi only felt severe pain in her eyes, she desperately opened her eyes wide, but she couldn't see anything, the world turned into a ball of black paint, only then did she realize that her eyes had been blinded by Ding ChunQiu's poison, she suddenly burst into tears, crying out loud. Said: "I... my eyes are blind, I... I'm blind!" The man comforted softly: "Maybe it will be cured." Ah Zi said angrily: "Old Monster Ding's poison is so powerful, how can he be cured well? You lied! I'm blind, I'm blind!" Then he cried again.The man said: "There is a small stream over there, let's go and wash it, and wash away the poison in the eyes." He reached out to grab her right hand and gently pulled her up. AhZi felt that his palm was extremely cold, she couldn't help but shrink back, and the man let go of his hand.AhZi took two steps, staggered and nearly fell down.The man said: "Be careful!" He held her hand again.This time Ah Zi didn't hold back anymore, and let him lead to the stream.The man said: "Don't be afraid, this is the stream." AhZi knelt by the stream, scooping up the stream water with both hands to wash her eyes.The cool stream touched the eyeballs, and the pain gradually subsided, but the sky was dark, and there was no light in front of the eyes.All of a sudden, despair, sadness, anger, helplessness, and all kinds of feelings came together. She sat down on the ground, crying loudly, beating her feet against the stream, crying: "You lied, you lied, I I'm blind, I'm blind!" The man said: "Girl, you don't have to be sad. I won't leave you, you...you can rest assured. " Ah Zi felt relieved, and asked: "You... who are you?" The man said: "I... I..." Ah Zi said: "I'm sorry! Thank you for saving my life. Your surname is Gao?" Then Humanity: "I... I... the girl doesn't recognize me." Ah Zi said: "You don't even want to tell me your name, and you lied to me that you won't leave me, I... I'm blind, I... ...I'd better die." He cried again. The man said: "Girl must not die. I... I will never leave you. As long as the girl allows me to be with you, I will always... always be by your side." Ah Zi said: "I don't believe it! I don’t believe it! You lied to me, you lied to me not to seek death. I’m going to die, I’m blind, what else am I going to do?” The man said: “I will never lie to you, if I leave you, I will die badly. "The tone is anxious, and it seems extremely sincere.Ah Zi said: "Then who are you?" The man said: "I... I am Juxianzhuang... No, no, my surname is Zhuang, and my name is Juxian." The man who saved Azi was none other than You Tanzhi, the young owner of Juxian Village. AhZi said: "It turned out to be Zhuang... Senior Zhuang, thank you for saving me." You TanZhi said: "I was able to save you from the evil hand of XingXiu old fairy, I am very happy, you don't need to thank me. I am not What kind of senior, I am only a few years older than you." Ah Zi said: "Well, then I will call you Brother Zhuang." You Tanzhi was filled with joy in his heart, tremblingly said: "This... is not dare to be." AhZi said: "Brother Zhuang, I beg you for one thing." You TanZhi said: "Don't ask for anything, whatever the girl orders, I will try my best to do it for you even if I risk my life. "Ah Zi smiled slightly and said: "You and I are strangers, why are you so kind to me?" You Tanzhi said: "Yes, yes, we are strangers, I have never met you, and you have never Pass me. This time... today is the first time we meet." Ah Zi said sadly: "Are you still talking about meeting? I will never see you again." As she spoke, she couldn't help but shed tears again. You TanZhi hurriedly said: "That doesn't matter. It would be better if you don't see me." AhZi asked: "Why?" You TanZhi said: "I... I look very ugly, if you see me, you will definitely Don’t be happy.” Ah Zi smiled sweetly, and said, “You’re cheating again. I’ve seen many of the weirdest people in the world. I have a slave who wears an iron cap on his head, which can never be removed Yes, it's ugly. If you see it, you'll laugh for three days and three nights. Do you want to see it?" You TanZhi tremblingly said: "No, no! I don't want to watch it." He couldn't help but took two steps back. Ah Zi said: "Your martial arts are so good, when you hug me and run, you are almost as fast as my brother-in-law, but you are so timid, you don't even want to see a man with a steel head. Brother Zhuang, that man with a steel head is very interesting , I told him to do somersaults for you, and let him stick his iron head into the cage of a lion and a tiger, and let the wild beasts bite his iron head. Then I asked someone to use him as a kite and fly in the sky, that would be interesting. " You TanZhi couldn't help shivering and said repeatedly: "I don't want to watch it, I really don't want to watch it." AhZi sighed: "Okay. You just said that no matter what I beg you to do, you will do it for me even if you don't want your life. It turns out it's all a lie." You TanZhi said: "No, No! I won't lie to you. What does the girl want me to do?" Ah Zi said: "I want to go back to my brother-in-law, he is in Nanjing, Liao Kingdom. Brother Zhuang, please take me there." In an instant, You TanZhi's mind was in chaos, he couldn't speak anymore. AhZi said: "What? Are you unwilling?" You TanZhi said: "No...not, but...but I don't want...don't want to go to Nanjing of Liao Kingdom." AZi said: "I told you to go and see My playful iron-headed clown, you refused. I asked you to take me back to my brother-in-law, but you refused. I had no choice but to go alone." As he spoke, he stood up slowly, stretched out his hands, and explored the way forward . You TanZhi said: "I'll accompany you! How can you... how can you do it by yourself?"
You TanZhi held AhZi's soft and slippery little hand, and led her out of the woods, he just thought in his heart: "As long as I can hold her hand and walk slowly like this, I will go to the 18th floor of hell, and so will I." Unlimited joy." As soon as he reached the main road, a group of beggars came head-on.The first person was tall, thin and handsome, he recognized Quan Guanqing, the leader of the Beggar Clan's Dazhi branch, You Tanzhi thought: "This person was injured by my master that day, but he didn't die." He didn't want to meet with them, so he was busy Pulling AhZi off the main road, she walked into the wasteland.AhZi noticed that the ground was uneven, and asked, "What's the matter?" Before You Tanzhi could answer, Quan Guanqing had already seen the two of them, rushed to stop him, and shouted sharply: "Sneaky, what are you doing? You...you look weird, what is it?" You TanZhi was in a hurry, thought: "As long as he calls out the word 'Iron Head Man', Miss AZi will know who I am immediately, and will never pay attention to me again. Even if she still wants me to send her back to Nanjing, it's okay I will never let me hold her hand again." At a moment's hesitation, he suddenly knelt down, bowed several times, and made big gestures, asking Quan Guanqing not to reveal his truth. Quan Guanqing couldn't understand the meaning of his gesture, he wondered: "What are you doing?" You Tanzhi pointed at Ah Zi, waved his hand, pointed to his own mouth, waved his hand, and bowed a few more times.Quan Guanqing saw that Ah Zi's eyes were blind, he vaguely understood that the iron-headed man begged him not to speak, just as he was surprised, all the disciples of the Beggar Sect rushed towards him. One person pointed at You Tanzhi's head, laughed loudly, and shouted: "It's really strange, this iron..." You Tanzhi leaned forward and slapped out his palm.The Beggar Clan disciple hastily raised his hand to block him, there were a few crackling sounds, the man's arm bones and ribs were all broken, he flew backward about Zhang Xu, fell to the ground, and died instantly. All the disciples were shocked and angry, five of them attacked You TanZhi at the same time.You TanZhi danced with both palms, hitting and clapping indiscriminately.His martial arts are low, and he is far inferior to these Beggar Clan disciples, but his palms are all over the place, and he can only hear "Crack, Crack!" "Ouch!" When they come out, they all hit the ground and die.The others were horrified, they surrounded You TanZhi and AhZi, they dared not go forward to attack again. You Tanzhi suddenly knelt down to Quan Guanqing again, bowed a few times, made gestures again and again, pointing at Ah Zi, pointing at his own iron head, he kept shaking his hands. Quan Guanqing saw that he raised his hand to kill six beggars in a row, and his skill was so deep that it was rare in his life. If he stepped forward to make a move, he would be unlucky, but he knelt down to him again, which was really unimaginable. Pointing to Ah Zi, pointing to his iron head, pointing to his own mouth, and shaking his hands.You TanZhi was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly.Quan Guanqing had a thought: "This man's martial arts are extremely high, but he is deeply afraid that I will reveal his secrets. It seems that he can use this matter to blackmail him and take it for me." Immediately he said to his disciples: "Everyone Don't talk, don't talk to anyone." You TanZhi felt even more happy, and bowed to him a few more times. AhZi asked: "Brother Zhuang, who are they? How many people have you killed?" You TanZhi said: "It's a good friend of the Beggar Gang, everyone had some misunderstanding. He is a great man with great benevolence and righteousness, and I have always admired him very much. I... I accidentally injured some of their brothers, and I am really sorry." He said and bowed to the group of beggars. Ah Zi said: "Are there any good people in the Beggar Clan? Brother Zhuang, your martial arts are so high, why don't you kill them all, so that my brother-in-law can vent his anger." You TanZhi hurriedly said: "No, no, that is a misunderstanding. I am good friends with Master Quan. You wait here for me, and I will go there with Master Quan to explain the festival." He said and waved to Quan Guanqing . Quan Guanqing was even more surprised when he heard that he recognized him, but he seemed to have no malice, and immediately followed him for more than ten feet. You TanZhi saw that he was far away from AZi, she was determined not to hear what she said, but he was afraid that the crowd of beggars would hurt her, he dared not go any further, so he stopped, cupped his hands and said: "Master Quan, I promise you to hide from brother The truth, great kindness and great virtue, never dare to forget." Quan Guanqing said: "The reason for this is completely incomprehensible, brother. Your surname is Gao?" You Tanzhi said: "My brother's surname is Zhuang, and his name is Zhuang Juxian. Because of his unfortunate life, he put this laoshizi on his head. Can't let this girl know." Quan Guanqing was very concerned when he saw that he was looking at Ah Zi with both eyes when he spoke, and he already guessed seven or eight points in his heart: "This little girl is elegant and beautiful, this iron head man must fall in love with her." For fear that she would know his iron-headed grotesque." He asked, "How do you know brother Zhuang?" You TanZhi said: "Your gang's great wisdom split up the meeting to discuss the election of the gang leader, brother happened to be at the side, and I heard someone calling Quan helm master. Brother missed today and hurt a few brothers of your gang, it's really...it's not right, it's not right. Please forgive me, Quan Helmsman." Quan Guanqing said: "Everyone has misunderstood, don't mind. Brother Zhuang, you are wearing this thing on your head, brother is determined not to mention it, and later brother will instruct his subordinates, no one should leak any information." You Tanzhi was so grateful Weeping, kept bowing, and said: "Thank you, thank you very much." Quan Guanqing said: "But brother Zhuang and this girl are walking hand in hand on the road, it is inevitable that someone will see them, they will make a fuss, call out, and brother Zhuang will kill that person , it’s already too late.” You TanZhi said: "Yes, yes." He saved Ah Zi himself, his mind wandered, he never thought about it, at this moment he heard what Quan Guanqing said was good, he couldn't help losing his mind, he murmured: "I...I I can only go with her to hide in the deep mountains where there is no one.” Quan Guanqing smiled and said: "This girl is afraid that she will become suspicious, and after Brother Zhuang and this girl are married, she will find out sooner or later." You TanZhi's chest felt hot, he said: "I don't want to become a husband... a couple, that... that's not possible, how... how can I get married? But... but... that's really difficult. " Quan Guanqing said: "Brother Zhuang, I promise you that you will never give up and say that brother is your good friend. If a good friend has a difficult situation, he should give you some advice. Let's go to the front town together and hire a car Big car, if you sit in the car with this girl, then no one will be able to see you." You TanZhi was overjoyed, thinking of being able to ride in the same car with AhZi, he is really not as good as a god, he hurriedly said: "Yes , Yes! Master Quan’s idea is really high.” Quan Guanqing said: "Then let's find a way to get rid of the iron hat of Brother Zhuang. Brother patted his chest to guarantee that this girl will never know about this embarrassing incident of Brother Zhuang. What do you think?" With a puff sound, You Tanzhi fell to his knees and kowtowed to Quan Guanqing, the iron head hit the ground with a thumping sound. Quan Guanqing knelt down to return the salute, and said: "Brother Zhuang makes this great gift, how dare you be a brother? If Brother Zhuang doesn't give up, how about we become Jinlan brothers?" You Tanzhi said happily: "Wonderful, wonderful! Being brothers I don’t understand anything, and I really wish for a resourceful elder brother like you to show me the way.” Quan Guanqing laughed loudly, and said: “As a elder brother, I’m not polite to say how old you are. You said 'brother'."
When Ding Chunqiu and Su Xinghe were fighting upside down, Duan Yu's eyes never left Wang Yuyan's body, but Wang Yuyan's eyes were always looking at his cousin Murong Fu affectionately.Because of this, the eyes of Duan Wang and the two never met. After Ding ChunQiu was defeated and escaped, Xu Zhu met with Xiaoyao Sect disciples, Murong Fu and his party left, Duan Yu naturally followed behind Wang YuYan. Coming down to Deling, Murong Fu clasped his hands to Duan Yu and said, "Brother Duan, it's an honor to meet you today, let's say goodbye, there will be a later date." Duan Yu said: "Yes, yes. It's an honor to meet you today, let's say goodbye , there will be a period later." But his gaze was still on Wang Yuyan.Murong Fu was upset, he snorted, turned around and left.Duan Yu reluctantly followed. Bao BuTong blocked Duan Yu with both hands, and said: "Young Master Duan, thank you Bao for your help today." Duan Yu said: "You are welcome." Bao BuTong said: "Thank you for this matter. However, we owe nothing to each other. It is rude of you to look at our Miss Wang so intently, and it is even more rude if you want to follow up now. You are a scholar, do you know that "see no evil, do no evil" Is it okay? Bao has no strength at all at the moment, but he still has the strength to curse people." Duan Yu sighed, shook his head, and said: "In this case, Brother Bao is still saying 'Say no evil', and I will say 'Indecent words' Don't follow me." Bao BuTong laughed and said, "That's right!" Turning around, he followed Murong Fu and others. Duan Yu watched Wang Yuyan's back being covered by the forest, he was still in a daze, Zhu Danchen said: "My lord, let's go!" Duan Yu said: "Yes, it's time to go." But he didn't move, until Zhu Danchen even After urging him three times, he got on the mount that Gu Ducheng had brought.他身在马背之上，目光却兀自瞧着王语嫣的去路。 段誉那日将书信交与全冠清后，便即驰去拜见段正淳。父子久别重逢，都是不胜之喜。阮星竹更对这位小王子竭力奉承。阿紫却已不别而行，兄妹俩未得相见。段正淳和阮星竹以阿朱、阿紫之事说来尴尬，都没向他提起。 过得十余日，崔百泉、过彦之二人也寻到相聚。他师叔侄在苏州琴韵小筑和段誉失散，到处寻访，不得踪迹，后来从河南伏牛山本门中人处得到讯息，大理镇南王到了河南，便在伏牛山左近落脚，当即赶来，见到段誉安然无恙，甚感欣慰。 段誉九死一生之余，在父亲身边得享天伦之乐，自是欢喜，但思念王语嫣之情却只有与日俱增，待得棋会之期将届，得了父亲允可，带同古笃诚等赴会。果然不负所望，在棋会中见到了意中人，但这一会徒添愁苦，到底是否还是不见的好，他自己可也说不上来了。 一行人驰出二十余里，大路上尘头起处，十余骑疾奔而来，正是大理国三公范骅、华赫艮、巴天石、以及所率大理群士。一行人驰到近处，下马向段誉行礼。原来众人奉了段正淳之命，前来接应，深恐聋哑先生的棋会之中有何凶险。众人听说段延庆也曾与会，幸好没对段誉下手，都是手心中捏了一把汗。 朱丹臣悄悄向范骅等三人说知，段誉在棋会中如何见到姑苏慕容家的一位美貌姑娘，如何对她目不转睛的呆视，如何失魂落魄，又想跟去，幸好给对方斥退。范骅等相视而笑，心中转的是同样念头：“小王子风流成性，家学渊源。他如能由此忘了对自己亲妹子木姑娘的相思之情，倒是一件大大的好事。” 傍晚时分，一行人在客店中吃了晚饭。范骅说起江南之行，说道：“公子爷，这慕容氏一家诡秘得很，以后遇上了可得小心在意。”段誉道：“怎么？”范骅道：“这次我们三人奉了王爷将令，前赴苏州燕子坞慕容氏家中查察，要瞧瞧有什么蛛丝马迹，少林派玄悲大师到底是不是慕容氏害死的。”崔百泉与过彦之甚是关切，齐声问道：“三位可查到了什么没有？”范骅道：“我们三人没明着求见，只暗中查察，慕容氏家里没男女主人，只剩下些婢仆。偌大几座院庄，却是个小姑娘叫做阿碧的在主持家务。”段誉点头道：“嗯，这位阿碧姑娘人挺好的。三位没伤了她罢？” 范骅微笑道：“没有，我们接连查了几晚，慕容氏庄上什么地方都查到了，半点异状也没有。巴兄弟忽然想到，那个番僧鸠摩智将公子爷从大理请到江南来，说是要去祭慕容先生的墓……” 崔百泉插口道：“是啊，慕容庄上那个小丫头，却说什么也不肯带那番僧去祭墓，幸好这样，公子爷才得脱却那番僧的毒手。”段誉点头道：“阿朱、阿碧两位姑娘，可真是好人。不知她们现下怎样了。” 巴天石微笑道：“我们接连三晚，都在窗外见到那阿碧姑娘在缝一件男子的长袍，不住自言自语：'公子爷，侬在外头冷（左口右伐）？侬啥辰光才回来？'公子爷，她是缝给你的罢？”段誉忙道：“不是，不是。她是缝给慕容公子的。”巴天石道：“是啊，我瞧这小丫头神魂颠倒的，老是想着她的公子爷，我们三个穿房入舍，她全没察觉。”他说这番话，是要段誉不可学他爹爹，到处留情，阿碧心中想的只是慕容公子，段公子对她多想无益。 段誉叹了口气，说道：“慕容公子俊雅无匹，那也难怪，那也难怪！又何况他们是中表之亲，自幼儿青梅竹马……” 范骅、巴天石等面面相觑，均想：“小丫头和公子爷青梅竹马倒也犹可，又怎会有中表之亲？”哪想得到他是扯到了王语嫣身上。 崔百泉问道：“范司马、巴司空想到那番僧要去祭慕容先生的墓，不知这中间有什么道理？可跟我师兄之死有什么关连？”范骅道：“我提到这件事，正是要请大伙儿一起参详参详。华大哥一听到这个'墓'字，登时手痒，说道：'说不定这老儿的墓中有什么古怪，咱们掘进去瞧瞧。'我和巴兄都不大赞成，姑苏慕容氏名满天下，咱们段家去掘他的墓，太也说不过去。华兄弟却道：'咱们悄悄打地道进去，神不知，鬼不觉，有谁知道了？'我们二人拗他不过，也就听他的。那墓便葬在庄子之后，甚是僻静隐秘，还真不容易找到。我们三人掘进墓圹，打开棺材，崔兄，你道见到什么？” 崔百泉和过彦之同时站起，问道：“什么？” 范骅道：“棺材里是空的，没有死人。” 崔过二人张大了嘴，半晌合不拢来。过了良久，崔百泉一拍大腿，说道：“那慕容博没有死。他叫儿子在中原到处露面，自己却在几千里外杀人，故弄玄虚。我师哥……我师哥定是慕容博这恶贼杀的！” 范骅摇头道：“崔兄曾说，这慕容博武功深不可测，他要杀人，尽可使别的手段，为什么定要留下'以彼之道，还施彼身'的功夫，好让人人知道是他姑苏慕容氏下的手？若想武林中知道他的厉害，却为什么又要装假死？要不是华大哥有这能耐，又有谁能查知他这个秘密？” 崔百泉颓然坐倒，本来似已见到了光明，霎时间眼前又是一团迷雾。 段誉道：“天下各门各派的绝技成千成万，要一一明白其中的来龙去脉，当真是难如登天，可偏偏她有这等聪明智慧，什么武功都是了如指掌……” 崔百泉道：“是啊，好像我师哥这招'天灵千裂'，是我伏牛派的不传之秘，他又怎么懂得，竟以这记绝招害了我师哥性命？” 段誉摇头道：“她当然懂得，不过她手无缚鸡之力，虽然懂得各家各派的武功，自己却是一招也不会使的，更不会去害人性命。” 众人面面相觑，过了半晌，一齐缓缓摇头。
阿紫双眼被丁春秋毒瞎，游坦之奋不顾身的抢了她逃走。丁春秋心神微分，指上内功稍松，慕容复得此良机，立即运起“斗转星移”绝技，噗的一声，丁春秋五指抓住了一名弟子的手臂。慕容复拳头脱出掌握，飞身窜出，哈哈大笑，叫道：“少陪了，星宿老怪，后会有期。”展开轻功，头也不回的去了。 这一役他伤了星宿派二十余名弟子，大获全胜，终于出了给丁春秋暗害而险些自刎的恶气，但最后得能全身而退，实是出于侥幸，路上回思适才情景，当真不寒而栗。与王语嫣、邓百川一行会齐后，在客店中深居简出，让邓百川等人养伤。 过得数日，包不同、风波恶两人体力尽复，跟着邓百川与公冶乾也已痊可。六人说起不知阿朱的下落，都是好生记挂，当下商定就近去洛阳打探讯息。 在洛阳不得丝毫消息，于是又向西查去。这一日六人急于赶道，错过了宿头，直行到天黑，仍是在山道之中，越走道旁的乱草越长。风波恶道：“咱们只怕走错了路，前边这个弯多半转得不对。”邓百川道：“且找个山洞或是破庙，露宿一宵。” 风波恶当先奔出去找安身之所，放眼道路崎岖，乱石嶙峋。他自己什么地方都能躺下来呼呼大睡，但要找一个可供王语嫣宿息的所在，却着实不易。一口气奔出数里，转过一个山坡，忽见右首山谷中露出一点灯火，风波恶大喜，回首叫道：“这边有人家。” 慕容复等闻声奔到。公冶乾喜道：“看来只是家猎户山农，但给王姑娘一人安睡的地方总是有的。”六人向着灯火快步走去。那灯火相隔甚遥，走了好一会仍是闪闪烁烁，瞧不清楚屋宇。风波恶喃喃骂道：“他奶奶的，这灯可有点儿邪门。”突然邓百川低声喝道：“且住，公子爷，你瞧这是盏绿灯。”慕容复凝目望去，果见那灯火发出绿油油的光芒，迥不同寻常灯火的色作暗红或昏黄。六人加快脚步，向绿灯又驱前里许，便看得更加清楚了。 包不同大声道：“邪魔外道，在此聚会！” 凭这五人的机智武功，对江湖上不论哪一个门派帮会，都绝无忌惮，但各人立时想到：“今日与王姑娘在一起，还是别生事端的为是。”包不同与风波恶久未与人打斗生事，霎时间心痒难搔，跃跃欲试，但立即自行克制。风波恶道：“今日走了整天路，可有点倦了，这个臭地方不太好，退回去罢！”慕容复微微一笑，心想：“风四哥居然改了性子，当真难得。”说道：“表妹，那边不干不净的，咱们走回头路罢。”王语嫣不明白其中道理，但表哥既然这么说，也就欣然乐从。 六人转过身来，只走出几步，忽然一个声音隐隐约约的飞了过来：“既知邪魔外道在此聚会，你们这几只不成气候的妖魔鬼怪，又怎不过来凑凑热闹？”这声音忽高忽低，若断若续，钻入耳中令人极不舒服，但每个字都听得清清楚楚。 慕容复哼了一声，知道包不同所说“邪魔外道，在此聚会”那句话，已给对方听了去，从对方这几句传音中听来，说话之人内力修为倒是不浅，但也不见得是真正第一流的功夫。他左手一拂，说道：“没空跟他纠缠，随他去罢！”不疾不徐地从来路退回。 那声音又道：“小畜生，口出狂言，便想这般挟着尾巴逃走吗？真要逃走，也得向老祖宗磕上三百个响头再走。” 风波恶忍耐不住，止步不行，低声道：“公子爷，我去教训教训这狂徒。”慕容复摇摇头，道：“他们不知咱们是谁，由他们去罢！”风波恶道：“是！” 六人再走十余步，那声音又飘了过来：“雄的要逃走，也就罢了，这雌雏儿可得留下，陪老祖宗解解闷气。” 五人听到对方居然出言辱及王语嫣，人人脸上变色，一齐站定，转过身来。只听得那声音又道：“怎么样？乖乖地快把雌儿送上来，免得老祖宗……” 他刚说到那个“宗”字，邓百川气吐丹田，喝道：“宗！”他这个“宗”字和对方的“宗”字双音相混，声震山谷。各人耳中嗡嗡大响，但听得“啊”的一声惨呼，从绿灯处传了过来。静夜之中，邓百川那“宗”字余音未绝，夹着这声惨叫，令人毛骨悚然。 邓百川这声断喝，乃是以更高内力震伤了对方。从那人这声惨呼听来，受伤还真不轻，说不定已然一命呜呼。那人惨叫之声将歇，但听得嗤的一声响，一枚绿色火箭射向天空，砰的一下炸了开来，映得半边天空都成深碧之色。 风波恶道：“一不做，二不休，扫荡了这批妖魔鬼怪的巢穴再说。”慕容复点了点头，道：“咱们让人一步，本来求息事宁人。既然干了，便干到底。”六人向那绿火奔去。 慕容复怕王语嫣受惊吃亏，放慢脚步，陪在她身边，只听得包不同和风波恶两声呼叱，已和人动上了手。跟着绿火微光中三条黑影飞了起来，拍拍拍三响，撞向山壁，显是给包风二人干净利落的料理了。 慕容复奔到绿灯之下，只见邓百川和公冶乾站在一只青铜大鼎之旁，脸色凝重。铜鼎旁躺着一个老者，鼎中有一道烟气上升，细如一线，却其直如矢。王语嫣道：“是川西碧磷洞桑土公一派。”邓百川点头道：“姑娘果然渊博。”包不同回过身来，问道：“你怎知道？这烧狼烟报讯之法，几千年前就有了，未必就只川西碧磷洞……”他几句话还没说完，公冶乾指着铜鼎的一足，示意要他观看。 包不同弯下腰来，晃火折一看，只见鼎足上铸着一个“桑”字，乃是几条小蛇、蜈蚣之形盘成，铜绿斑斓，宛是一件古物。包不同明知王语嫣说得对了，还要强辞夺理：“就算这只铜鼎是川西桑土公一派，焉知他们不是去借来偷来的？何况常言道'赝鼎、赝鼎'，十只鼎倒有九只是假的。” 慕容复等心下都有些嘀咕：“此处离川西甚远，难道也算是桑土公一派的地界么？”他们都知道川西碧磷洞桑土公一派都是苗人、瑶人，行事与中土武林人士大不相同，擅于下毒，江湖人士对之颇为忌惮，好在他们与世无争，只要不闯入川西瑶山地界，他们不会轻易侵犯旁人。慕容复、邓百川等人自也不来怕他什么桑土公，只是跟这种邪毒怪诞的化外之人结仇，实在无聊，而纠缠上了身，也甚麻烦。 慕容复微一沉吟，说道：“这是非之地，早早离去的为妙。”眼见铜鼎旁躺着的那老者已是气息奄奄，却兀自睁大了眼，气愤愤的望着各人，自便是适才发话肇祸之人了。慕容复向包不同点了点头，嘴角向那老人一歪。包不同会意，反手抓起那根悬着绿灯的竹杆，倒过杆头，连灯带杆，噗的一声，插入那老者胸口，绿灯登时熄灭。王语嫣“啊”的一声惊呼。公冶乾道：“量小非君子，无毒不丈夫！这叫做杀人灭口，以免后患。”飞起右足，踢倒了铜鼎。慕容复拉着王语嫣的手，斜刺向左首窜了出去。 只奔出十余丈，黑暗中嗤嗤两声，金刃劈风，一刀一剑从长草中劈了出来。慕容复袍袖一拂，借力打力，左首那人的一刀砍在右首那人头上，右首那人一剑刺入了左首之人心窝，刹那间料理了偷袭的二人，脚下却丝毫不停。公冶乾赞道：“公子爷，好功夫！” 慕容复微微一笑，继续前行，右掌一挥，迎面冲来一名敌人骨碌碌地滚下山坡，左掌击出，左前方一名敌人“啊”的一声大叫，口喷鲜血。黑暗之中，突然闻到一阵腥臭之气，跟着微有锐风扑面，慕容复急凝掌风，将这两件不知名的暗器反击了出去，但听得“啊”的一下惊呼，敌人已中了他自己所发的歹毒暗器。 黑暗之中，蓦地陷入重围，也不知敌人究有多少，只是随手杀了数人，杀到第六人时，慕容复暗暗心惊，寻思：“起初三人多半是川西桑土公一派，后来三人的武功却显是另属不同的三派，冤家愈结愈多，大是不妙。” 只听得邓百川叫道：“大伙儿并肩往'听香水榭'闯啊！”“听香水榭”是姑苏燕子坞中的一个庄子，位于西首，是慕容复的侍婢阿朱所居。邓百川说向听香水榭闯去，便是往西退却，以免让敌人知道。 慕容复一听，便即会意，但其时四下里一片漆黑，星月无光，难以分辨方位，不知西首却在何方。他微一凝神，听得邓百川厚重的掌风在身后右侧响了两下，当即拉住王语嫣，斜退三步，向邓百川身旁靠去，只听得拍拍两声轻响，邓百川和敌人又对了两掌。从掌声之中听来，敌人着实是个好手。跟着邓百川吐气扬声，“嘿”的一声呼喝。慕容复知道邓百川使出一招“石破天惊”的掌力，对方多半抵挡不住。果然那人失声惊呼，声音尖锐，但呼声越响越下，犹如沉入地底，跟着是石块滚动、树枝折断之声。慕容复微微一惊：“这人失足掉入了深谷。适才绿光之下，没见到有什么山谷啊。幸好邓大哥将这人先行打入深谷，否则黑暗中一脚踏了个空，可就糟了。” 便在此时，左首高坡上有个声音飘了过来：“何方高人，到万仙大会来捣乱？当真将三十六洞洞主、七十二岛岛主，都不放在眼内吗？” 慕容复等都轻轻“啊”的一声。什么“三十六洞洞主，七十二岛岛主”的名头，他们倒也听到过的，但所谓“洞主，岛主”，只不过是一批既不属任何门派、又不隶什么帮会的旁门左道之士。这些人武功有高有低，人品有善有恶，人人独来独往，各行其是，相互不通声气，也便成不了什么气候，江湖上向来不予重视。只知他们有的散处东海、黄海中的海岛，有的在昆仑、祁连深山中隐居，近年来销声匿迹，毫无作为，谁也没加留神，没想到竟会在这里出现。 慕容复朗声道：“在下朋友六人，乘夜赶路，不知众位在此相聚，无意中多有冒犯，谨此谢过。黑暗之中，事出误会，双方一笑置之便了，请各位借道。”他这几句话不亢不卑，并不吐露身分来历，对误杀对方数人之事，也赔了罪。 突然之间，四下里哈哈、嘿嘿、呵呵、哼哼笑声大作，越笑人数越多。初时不过十余人发笑，到后来四面八方都有人加入大笑，听声音不下五六百人，有的便在近处，有的却似在数里之外。 慕容复听对方声势如此浩大，又想到那人说什么“万仙大会”，心道：“今晚倒足了霉，误打误撞的，闯进这些旁门左道之士的大聚会中来啦。我迄今没吐露姓名，还是一走了之的为是，免得闹到不可收拾。何况寡不敌众，咱们六人怎对付得了这数百人？” 众人哄笑声中，高坡上那人道：“你这人说话轻描淡写，把事情看得忒也易了。你们六人已出手伤了咱们好几位兄弟，万仙大会群仙假如就此放你们走路，三十六洞和七十二岛的脸皮，却往哪里搁去？” 慕容复定下神来，凝目四顾，只见前后左右的山坡、山峰、山坳、山脊各处，影影绰绰的都是人影，黑暗中自瞧不清各人的身形面貌。这些人本来不知是在哪里，突然之间，都如从地底下涌了出来一般。这时邓百川、公冶乾、包不同、风波恶四人都已聚在慕容复与王语嫣身周卫护，但在这数百人的包围之下，只不过如大海中的一叶小舟而已。
慕容复和邓百川等生平经历过无数大阵大仗，见了这等情势，却也不禁心中发毛，寻思：“这些人古里古怪，十个八个自不足为患，几百人聚在一起，可着实不易对付。” 慕容复气凝丹田，朗声说道：“常言道不知者不罪。三十六洞洞主，七十二岛岛主的大名，在下也素有所闻，决不敢故意得罪。川西碧磷洞桑土公、藏边虬龙洞玄黄子、北海玄冥岛岛主章达夫先生，想来都在这里了。在下无意冒犯，尚请恕罪则个。” 左首一个粗豪的声音呵呵笑道：“你提一提咱们的名字，就想这般轻易混了出去吗？嘿嘿，嘿嘿！” 慕容复心头有气，说道：“在下敬重各位是长辈，先礼后兵，将客气话说在头里。难道我慕容复便怕了各位不成？” 只听得四周许多人都是“啊”的一声，显是听到了“慕容复”三字颇为震动。那粗豪的声音道：“是'以彼之道，还施彼身'的姑苏慕容氏么？”慕容复道：“不敢，正是区区在下。”那人道：“姑苏葛容氏可不是泛泛之辈。掌灯！大伙儿见上一见！” 他一言出口，突然间东南角上升起了一盏黄灯，跟着西首和西北角上各有红灯升起。霎时之间，四面八方都有灯火升起，有的是灯笼，有的是火把，有的是孔明灯，有的是松明柴草，各家洞主、岛主所携来的灯火颇不相同，有的粗鄙简陋，有的却十分工细，先前都不知藏在哪里。灯火忽明忽暗的映照在各人脸上，奇幻莫名。 这些人有男有女，有俊有丑，既有僧人，亦有道士，有的大袖飘飘，有的窄衣短打，有的是长须飞舞的老翁，有的是
