Chapter 37 Chapter Thirty-Six
Xu Zhu was startled, he took two steps forward.Child Elder screamed in alarm and ran towards him.The man in white said in a low voice: "Sister, you are so comfortable here!" But it was a woman's voice, very soft and tactful.Xu Zhu went up two more steps, saw that the person in white was slender and graceful, obviously a woman, his face was covered with a piece of white silk, he couldn't see her face, he heard her call "Senior Sister", he thought they were a family , Child Elder has helpers coming, maybe she won't pester herself anymore.But when he squinted at Child Elder, he saw that her expression was extremely strange, it was frightened, angry, and there was a bit of disdain.
In a flash, Child Elder came to Xu Zhu's side, and shouted: "Quickly carry me up to the peak." Xu Zhu said: "This... this knot in my heart, little monk, I can't untie it for a while..." Child Elder was furious, With a backhand slap, he slapped him across the face, and shouted: "This bastard came after me, if it's not good for me, didn't you see?" At this time, Child Elder's attack was really serious, Xu Zhu slapped him With a slap in the face, half of his cheek suddenly swelled up.
The white-clothed man said: "Sister, you still have this temper all the time. You always force others to do things they don't want. What's the point of beating and scolding you? My little sister advises you to be more polite to others." it is good."
Xu Zhu has great feelings for him: "Although this person is a fellow student of Child Elder and Mr. Wu Yazi, his temperament is quite different from theirs, he is very gentle, refined and reasonable."
Child Elder kept urging Xu Zhu: "Hurry up and leave me, the farther away from this bastard the better, Grandma will not forget your benefits in the future, there will be a lot of rewards."
But the man in white shirt stood beside him calmly, his skirt fluttered in the breeze, fluttering like a fairy.Xu Zhu thought to himself, this girl is very elegant, why does Child Elder hate and fear her so much.I only heard the white-clothed man say: "Sister, our old sister has not seen you for many years. Why do you meet today? Not only are you unhappy, but you want to leave in a hurry? My little sister counts these few days as your rejuvenation day. I heard that you In recent years, my subordinates have taken in a lot of demons and goblins, and my younger sister is afraid that they will take the opportunity to rebel, so she went to Misty Peak to look for you in person at Vulture Palace, hoping to help you defend against foreign demons, but she couldn't find you."
Child Elder sees that Xu Zhu refuses to let her escape, there is nothing she can do, she said angrily: "You have counted the time for me to dissipate my qi and repay my merits, what good intentions can I have when I touch Misty Peak? You don't count By accident, someone will carry me down the peak. You were so disappointed, right? Li Qiushui, although I found you today, you have been a few days late. Of course, I am not your match , but you want to get something for nothing and steal my life’s magic, but you absolutely can’t do it.”
The white-clothed man said: "Where did the elder sister say that? Since the younger sister said goodbye to the elder sister, she has been thinking about it every day, and often wants to come to see the elder sister in the Vulture Palace. It's just that the elder sister has been in love with the younger sister decades ago. After the misunderstanding, every time we met, my sister always blamed me without asking why. Firstly, my sister was afraid of making her angry, and secondly, she was afraid of being beaten by her, so she never dared to come to visit. My sister It's too much to say that my sister has bad thoughts." She said it respectfully and affectionately.
Xu Zhu thought that the child elder was surly and brutal, these two women, one good and the other evil, had formed a rift back then, naturally it was the child elder's fault.
Child Elder said angrily: "Li Qiushui, what's the use of you sarcasm me again now? Look at me, what is it?" As she spoke, she stretched out her left hand, revealing the jeweled ring on her thumb come out.
The white shirted woman Li Qiushui trembled, and said in a voiceless voice: "Sect Leader's Ring of Seven Treasures! You...where did you get it?" Child Elder sneered, "Of course he gave it to me. Why do you even know why?" Li Qiushui Startled slightly, he said: "Hmph, he... how could he give it to you? You either stole it or robbed it."
Child Elder said loudly: "Li Qiushui, the head of Xiaoyao Sect has an order, ordering you to kneel down and obey orders."
Li Qiushui said: "Can you seal the head of the sect yourself? Most likely... probably you murdered him and stole this ring of seven treasures." She originally had a leisurely attitude, but when she saw this gem ring, she spoke There was a lot of impatience in his tone.
Child Elder sternly said: "You don't follow the orders of the head of the sect, you intend to betray the sect, don't you?"
Suddenly there was a flash of white light, and with a bang, Child Elder flew up and fell far away.Xu Zhu was startled, and shouted: "What's the matter?" Then he saw a dark red line of blood in the snow, Child Elder's severed thumb fell to the ground, but the jewel ring was already held by Li Qiushui hands.Obviously she cut off Child Elder's thumb as fast as lightning, snatched her ring, and then sent her palm to blow her body away, as for what weapon and technique she used when she severed her finger, it was because she struck too fast, Xu Zhu Can't see it at all.
I just heard Li Qiushui say: "Senior sister, how did you hurt him, you should tell my younger sister. My younger sister has a deep affection for you and will never embarrass you too much." As soon as she got the jewel ring, The tone changed immediately, and became very gentle again.
Xu Zhu couldn't help but said: "Miss Li, you are sisters from the same school, how can you be so powerful? Mr. Wu Yazi definitely did not kill the child elder. Monks don't lie, I won't lie to you."
Li Qiushui turned to Xu Zhu, and said: "Don't dare to ask the master's Dharma name? Where did he become a monk? How do you know my brother's name?" Xu Zhu said: "The little monk's Dharma name is Xu Zhu, he is a disciple of Shaolin Temple, Wu Yazi Old gentleman... well, it's a long story..." Seeing Li Qiushui's sleeves flicked, his knees and legs went numb, and his whole body's energy and blood flowed backwards. He immediately fell to the ground and shouted: " Hey, hey, what are you doing? I didn't offend you, why... why even I...also...also..."
Li Qiushui smiled and said: "Little master is an eminent monk of the Shaolin sect, I am just trying your skills. Well, although the Shaolin sect is famous, the eminent monks trained are only like this. I have offended you, and I am truly sorry."
Xu Zhu is lying on the ground, through the white silk covering her face, one can vaguely see her face, she seems to be around forty years old, her features are very beautiful, but there seem to be some bloodstains on her face, and she looks like There are some scars, it looks hazy, I can't help but feel a chill in my heart, and said: "I am the most unpromising young monk in Shaolin Temple, seniors can't underestimate the Shaolin School just because the young monk is incompetent."
Li Qiushui ignored him, walked slowly to the child elder, and said: "Sister, all these years, my little sister has missed you so much. Finally, God has eyes to teach my little sister to see her again. Senior sister, you The little sister always remembers all the good things she did to me in the past..."
Suddenly there was another flash of white light, Child Elder let out a miserable cry, a large pool of blood immediately flowed on the snow-covered ground, Child Elder's left leg was separated from her body.
Xu Zhu's shock was no small matter, he shouted angrily: "Sisters from the same family, how can you bear such a murderous attack? You...you...you are simply inferior to a beast!"
Li Qiushui turned around slowly, stretched out his left hand to lift off the white silk covering his face, revealing a snow-white face.Xu Zhu exclaimed in surprise, saw that her face was criss-crossed, there were four extremely long sword wounds, which formed a "well" character, because of these four sword wounds, her right eye protruded, the left corner of her mouth was crooked, she couldn't speak ugly.Li Qiushui said: "Many years ago, someone slashed my face like this with a sword. Great Master of Shaolin Temple, do you think I should take revenge?" He slowly lowered his face while speaking.
Xu Zhu said: "This...is this Child Elder harming you?" Li QiuShui said: "You might as well ask her yourself."
Child Elder's broken leg was bleeding like a tide, but she didn't faint, and said: "Yes, I scratched her face. I... I have achieved success in practicing martial arts. At the age of twenty-six, I could have grown up. It’s no different from ordinary people, but she secretly framed me and made me go crazy. You say this is a deep hatred, should you take revenge?”
Xu Zhu looked at Li Qiushui, thought: "If this statement is true, then it is this female benefactor who did the evil first."
Child Elder said again: "Since it's in your hands today, what else can I say? This little monk is 'his' old friend, you can't touch him. Otherwise, 'he' will never let you go. "As he said, he closed his eyes and let himself be slaughtered.
Li Qiushui sighed, and said lightly: "Sister, you are older than me and much smarter than me, but it is not so easy to deceive my little sister today. You said he...he ... If he is still in the world today, how could this ring of seven treasures fall into your hands? Well, my sister has no grievances or enmity with this little monk, not to mention that my younger sister is born cowardly, and she will never dare to fight with Taishan Beidou in the martial arts world The Shaolin faction formed a knot. This little master, my sister will not hurt him. Sister, my sister has two Jiuzhuan Xiongshen pills here, please take it, so that my sister's leg injury will not bleed. "
Xu Zhu listened to her first sentence "Sister" and the last sentence "Sister", he called her very affectionately, but thinking of the situation when Child Elder asked Wu Boss to take two Jiuzhuan Xiongshe Wan not long ago, he couldn't help but feel a burst of emotion on his back cold sweat.
Child Elder said angrily: "You want to kill me, do it quickly, if you want me to take the Duan Jin Rot Gu Pill, let you insult and ridicule me, don't even think about it." Li QiuShui said: "Little sister has good intentions for elder sister. My sister is always wrong. Your leg is bleeding too much, which is bad for your body. Sister, you should take these two pills."
Xu Zhu looked into her hands, he saw that she held two scorched yellow pills in her white jade palm, they were exactly the same as what Child Elder gave to Boss Wu, he thought: "The karma of Child Elder came so quickly."
Child Elder shouted: "Little Monk, quickly slap my celestial cap and send Grandma back to the west, so as not to be insulted by this bitch." Li QiuShui laughed: "Little Master is tired, I need to lie down on the ground for a while. "Child Elder panicked, spat out a mouthful of blood.Li Qiushui said: "Sister, one of your legs is long and the other is short. If 'he' sees it, it would be a bit indecent. How can a short beauty become a beauty with crooked shoulders that is half tall and half low? Didn't it make 'him' very regretful? My little sister will let you go to the end!" As he spoke, the white light flashed, and there was already an extra weapon in his hand.
This time Xu Zhu could see clearly that she was holding a dagger no longer than a foot in her hand.This dagger seems to be made of crystal, it can see through.Li Qiushui obviously intended to scare the child elder more, this time he didn't strike quickly, he used the dagger to compare her unbroken right leg.
Xu Zhu was furious: "This benefactor is also cruel!" Feeling agitated, the Northern Dark Qi in the body circulates rapidly in all the meridians, he suddenly feels the acupoints of his legs untie, the numbness stops.He didn't have time to think about it, he rushed forward, picked up Child Elder, and rushed to the top of the mountain.
When Li Qiushui knocked down Xu Zhu with the technique of "cold sleeve brushing acupuncture points", he found that his martial arts were very mediocre, so he didn't take him seriously, he just cooked the child elder slowly, told him to watch from the sidelines, and tortured the enemy It was a bit more fun, and he didn't kill him until the end, he didn't expect that he would break open the acupoints that he had sealed with his strength.This was unexpected, in an instant Xu Zhu has picked up Child Elder and ran five or six zhang away.Li Qiushui chased after him, and said with a smile, "Little master, have you fallen in love with my senior sister? Don't look at her beautiful face, she is a ninety-six-year-old woman, but she is not a seventeen-year-old girl." ” She was confident, and she could catch up in just a moment, how good is this little monk?Unexpectedly, under Xu Zhu's rush, the blood flow accelerated, and the strength of Beiming's true energy was displayed, he ran faster and faster, the distance of five or six zhang, unexpectedly he could not keep up.
In a blink of an eye, he had chased down the slope for more than three miles, Li Qiushui was startled and angry, and shouted: "Little Master, if you don't stop, I will hurt you with my palm."
Child Elder knew that Li Qiushui was about to come out with several palms, Xu Zhu died immediately, and she still fell into her hands, she said: "Little Master, thank you for saving me, we can't fight this bitch, throw me away quickly Go down to the valley, she may not hurt you."
Xu Zhu said: "This... must not be done. This little monk will definitely not..." He only said these two words, his anger was vented, Li Qiushui had already chased him, suddenly his back was cold, it was like a huge piece The cold ice printed on his flesh, floated up with his body, and fell into the valley involuntarily.Knowing that he was injured by Li Qiushui's cold palm, he still hugged Child Elder tightly with both hands, and fell straight down, thinking: "This time, I will be smashed into pieces and smashed into a ball of flesh. Amitabha!"
Faintly heard Li Qiushui's voice coming from above: "Ah, I hit too hard, it's cheap..." It turned out that there was a broken stream on the mountain peak covered with snow, and Li Qiushui slapped it with his palm. He wanted to knock Xu Zhu down, then hold Child Elder, and slowly use all kinds of vicious methods to torture him, but he didn't expect that Xu Zhu stepped on the snow in the broken stream and fell down with Child Elder. .
Xu Zhu only felt that his body was vain, he had no control over what he could do, he just fell straight, the wind whistled in his ears, although it happened in an instant, it seemed endless, the fall would never stop.Seeing the snow-covered hillside rushing towards him, when his eyes dazzled, he saw a few black spots in the snow that were slowly moving.Before he could take a closer look, he swooped down the hillside. Suddenly someone yelled: "Who is it?" A force pushes him from the side and hits Xu Zhu's waist.Before Xu Zhu's body touched the ground, he flew out obliquely, at a glance, he saw that the person who pushed him was Murong Fu, he was overjoyed, he wanted to throw Child Elder out, let Murong Fu catch him, in order to save her life . Murong Fu saw the two fell from the mountain peak, he couldn't see who they were for a while, so he used the unique skill of "Dou Zhuan Xing Yi", which was handed down from his family, turned the force of their fall into a horizontal direction, and moved the two of them horizontally.His "Fighting and Star Shifting" kung fu is not self-reliant at all, but Xu Zhu and Child Elder fell from the height with too much force, Murong Fu felt dizzy for an instant, almost fell down. Xu Zhu was forced by this huge force, the Child Elder in his hand couldn't be thrown out, his body flew more than ten zhang and fell down, his feet suddenly stepped on an extremely soft yet extremely tough object, there was a bang , The body bounced up again.Xu Zhu glanced at it, he saw a short, fat, fleshy person lying on the snow, but it was Sangtu Gong.It's really coincidental, when Xu Zhu landed on the ground, his feet kicked on his big belly, he kicked his belly broken immediately, and died unexpectedly, but luckily his big belly bounced, Xu Zhu's legs were saved, Not broken.Under this bounce, Xu Zhu involuntarily flew horizontally again, rushing towards a person, he could vaguely see that it was Duan Yu.Xu Zhu yelled: "Duan Xianggong, dodge quickly! I'm rushing over!" Duan Yu saw that Xu Zhu was coming very fast, he couldn't hold him no matter what, he shouted: "I'll hold you up!" He turned around, put his back on each other, at the same time he spread out Lingbo micro-steps, went straight forward, one at a time For a moment, he felt that his back was so heavy that he could barely breathe, but with every step, the strength on his back disappeared a bit, and he ran more than thirty steps in one breath, Xu Zhu gently slipped on his back down. The two of them fell from a height of several hundreds of feet, just as Murong Fu disappeared, Sang Tugong bounced, and finally they were carried on Duan Yu's back and ran, after three twists and turns, they were not injured at all.Xu Zhu straightened his body, said: "Amitabha! Thank you all for your help!" But he didn't know that Mr. Sangtu had already been trampled to death by him, otherwise he must have felt extremely guilty.Suddenly, a call was heard, uploaded from the hillside.After Child Elder broke her leg, although she bled a lot, she still did not lose her sanity, she said in shock: "No, this bastard has been chased down. Hurry up, hurry up." Xu Zhu thought of Li Qiushui's cruelty, he couldn't help shivering, hugged Child Elder , and rushed into the woods.
Li Qiushui rushes down from the hillside, although his footsteps are quick, it can't be compared with Xu Zhu's straight fall, in fact the distance is still far away, but Xu Zhu is afraid in his heart, he dare not stop for a moment.He ran for a few miles, and the child elder said: "Let me down, tear off the skirt of my clothes and wrap up my leg injury, so as not to leave bloodstains and be chased by that bitch. You are at my 'Huantiao' and 'Qimen' acupoints Put a few fingers on it, stop the bleeding and slow the flow." Xu Zhu said: "Yes!" He followed the words, while paying attention to Li Qiushui's movements.Child Elder took out a yellow pill from her bosom and took it, said: "This bastard has a deep hatred with me, no matter what, he can't let me go. I have seventy-nine days before I can recover my miraculous power, then I won't be afraid This bitch. Where should I hide for these seventy-nine days?" Xu Zhu frowned, thought: "It's difficult to hide for half a day, but where to hide for seventy-nine days?" Child Elder said to herself: "If you hide in your Shaolin Temple, it would be a wonderful place... ..." Xu Zhu was startled, his whole body trembled.Child Elder said angrily: "Dead Monk, what are you afraid of? Shaolin Temple is thousands of miles away, how can we get there?" She turned her head and said: "From now on, if you go west for more than a hundred miles, you will be Xixia Kingdom. This slut has a long history with the Xixia Kingdom, if she sends an order to all the masters of the Xixia Kingdom’s Yipin Hall to search for it, it will be difficult to escape her murderous hand. Little monk, where do you think we should hide?” Xu Zhu said: "Let's hide in the cave in the deep mountains for seventy or eighty days, I'm afraid your junior sister may not be able to find it." Child Elder said: "What do you know? If this bitch can't find me, it must be Go to Xixia country to call for a group of dogs, once those hundreds of hounds with extremely sensitive noses move out, no matter where we hide, these beasts will find them." Xu Zhu said: "Then we have to escape to the southeast , the farther away from Xixia Kingdom, the better." Child Elder snorted, and said bitterly: "This bastard has many eyes and ears, of course there are people on the southeast road." She pondered for a while, then suddenly clapped her hands and said: "Yes, little monk, you can untie the Wuyazi one." Zhenlong chess game, where is the first move?" Xu Zhu thought that at this critical moment, he still had the heart to talk about the chess game, so he said: "The little monk closed his eyes and made a random move, and for no reason, he glanced at himself and threw himself The chess pieces killed a large piece." Child Elder said happily: "Yes, for decades, I don't know how many people who are a hundred times smarter than you can't solve this Zhenlong, just because they are looking for their own death, and no one will do it. Wonderful, wonderful Extreme! Little monk, you carried me up the tree, go west quickly." Xu Zhu said: "Where are we going?" Child Elder said: "Going to a place that no one expected, although it is dangerous, but it is safe I have to take a risk if I die and live later." Xu Zhu looked at her broken leg, sighed, and said in his heart: "You can't walk, I don't want to take risks, and that won't happen." Seeing that she is seriously injured, the scruples about intimacy between men and women no longer take it to heart Go up, carry her on his back, jump up the treetops, follow the direction Child Elder pointed, and walk westward. After running for more than ten miles at a stretch, I suddenly heard a soft and round voice shouting in the distance: "Little monk, did you fall to your death? Sister, where are you? Sister misses you so much, come out quickly!" " Xu Zhu heard Li Qiushui's voice, his legs went limp, he almost fell off the treetop. Child Elder scolded: "The little monk is useless, what are you afraid of? You heard her screaming and going further away, didn't you chase east?" Sure enough, hearing the cries gradually fade away, Xu Zhu admired Child Elder's wise plan, he said: "She...how does she know that we are about to fall from a mountain hundreds of zhang high, but we are not dead?" Child Elder said: "Of course there are people talking too much." After pondering for a while, he said: "Grandma hasn't descended from the Misty Peak for decades, and she never expected that martial arts in the world will develop so quickly. The young master who defuses our downward trend, this palm uses strength to strike , Four or two strokes of a thousand catties, really amazing. Who is that other young master? How did he get 'Lingbo Weibu'?" She was talking to herself, not asking Xu Zhu.Xu Zhu was afraid that Li Qiushui would catch up to him, he just ran quickly, he didn't listen to what Child Elder said. After reaching the flat ground, he still chose to walk on small paths, spent the night in the dense forest and long grass, and set out the next morning, the child elder still pointed to the west.Xu Zhu said: "Senior, you said that Xixia Kingdom is not far to the west, I think we can't go west any more." Child Elder sneered: "Why can't we go west again?" Xu Zhu said: "What if Breaking into the border of Xixia Kingdom, is it not a trap?" Child Elder said: "The land you set foot on is already the territory of Xixia Kingdom!" Xu Zhu was taken aback, and shouted: "What? This is the land of Xixia? You said... You said that your junior sister has great influence in Xixia country?" Child Elder laughed: "Yes! Xixia is this bitch who is rampant Where the wind is the wind and the rain is the rain, we broke into her root, and she would never have guessed when she died. She searched desperately, but I was quiet in her lair Practicing? Haha, haha!" He said very proudly, and then said: "Little monk, I learned your tricks, playing the most stupid and unreasonable chess pieces, but in the end it has a great effect." Xu Zhu felt admiration, he said: "Senior's magic calculation is really unpredictable, but...just..." Child Elder said: "Just what?" Xu Zhu said: "Then Li Qiushui's root is in the center , there must be others, if they find our traces..." Child Elder said: "Hmph, if it is a place where there is no one, what kind of adventure can it be? What a hero does." Xu Zhu thought to himself: "If it's for saving people and the world, it's worth going through hardships and dangers, but you and Li Qiushui are the same, neither one is necessarily a good person, so why should I go out of my way for you risk?" Seeing the hesitation and embarrassment on his face, Child Elder already guessed his thoughts, and said: "I told you to take risks, of course there will be good rewards for you, I will never make your hard work in vain. Now I will teach you the three ways of palming, the three ways of grasping, the six ways of kung fu together are called 'Tianshan zhemeishou'." Xu Zhu said: "Senior's serious injury has not healed, it's not suitable to be overworked, it's better to rest for a while." Child Elder rolled her eyes and said: "Do you think my kung fu is heretical, don't bother to learn it?" Xu Zhu said: "This... this... this... this junior has absolutely no such intentions, you must not misunderstand." Child Elder said: "You are the descendant of the Xiaoyao Sect, and my 'Tianshan Zhemei Shou' is the best martial art of our sect. Why don't you want to learn?" Xu Zhu said: "The junior is from Shaolin School, it has absolutely nothing to do with Xiaoyao School." Child Elder said: "Bah! You have the internal strength of the Happy School, and you said that you have nothing to do with the Happy School, you are really talking nonsense. Tianshan Child Elder is a human being, and has never done things that benefit others. I teach you martial arts, yes For my own benefit, just because I want to use your hands to resist powerful enemies. If you don't learn the six ways of "Tianshan Zhemei Hand", you must be buried in Xixia Kingdom. The little monk died in Xixia, it doesn't matter, you Grandma can't live with you." Xu Zhu replied: "Yes!" He thinks that although this person has bad intentions, he said everything, he is a "true villain". At that moment, the child elder taught him the formula of the first step of "Tianshan Zhemei Hand".This formula consists of seven characters and one sentence, with a total of twelve sentences and eighty-four characters.Xu Zhu has a very good memory, Child Elder only said it three times, and he remembered it all.These eighty-four characters are very difficult to pronounce, there are seven flat tones followed by seven flat tones, the rhyme is completely out of tune, it is similar to urgent passwords.Fortunately Xu Zhu is very familiar with such sutras and mantras as "Sittantha, Botanla", "Jiedi, Jiedi, Bola Sangha Jiedi", etc., so it's not surprising. Child Elder said: "Carry me on your back, run westward, and recite this set of formulas loudly." Xu Zhu followed the words, unexpectedly he could only read three characters, the fourth character "Fu" could not be pronounced He had to stop and take a breath before he pronounced the fourth word.Child Elder raised her palm, slapped him on the top of his head, scolded: "You little monk, you can't recite the first sentence well." Although this blow is not heavy, it just hit his "Baihui acupoint".Xu Zhu's body swayed, he felt dizzy and dizzy, when he recited the formula again, he suffocated again at the fourth word, Child Elder slapped it again. Xu Zhu was very surprised: "Why can't the character 'Fu' be spit out smoothly?" When he recited it for the third time, he naturally raised his true energy, and the word 'Fu' spit out from his mouth.Child Elder laughed and said: "Good guy, passed a test!" It turns out that the words and sentences of this song are completely opposite to the principle of sound, rhyme and breathing. The set of verses is actually a way to balance the true energy. At noon, Child Elder ordered Xu Zhu to put her down, with a flick of a finger, a stone flew into the sky, it brought down a crow, drank the crow's blood, and began to practice the "Eight Desolation and Six Harmonies Only I Respect Gong".At this time, her skill has returned to the level she had when she was seventeen years old. Although she is far inferior to Li Qiushui, she can easily kill a crow with a snap of her fingers. Child Elder has finished practicing, she ordered Xu Zhu to take up the responsibility, to ask him to recite the verses again, after reciting them smoothly, she also asked him to recite them backwards.This verse is extremely difficult to pronounce when it is read in reverse, and it is even more rebellious when it is read backwards, stumbling tongue and teeth, but Xu Zhu relied on a lot of perseverance, before it was dark, he actually read the formula of the first palm technique regardless of the order When I read it backwards, I have already recited it fluently, without any stagnation. Child Elder liked it very much, said: "Little Monk, it's thanks to you... Ahhhhhhhh!" Suddenly her tone changed drastically, she clenched her hands into fists, beat Xu Zhu's head violently, and cursed: "You have no heart Little thief, you...you must have done something ulterior with her, and I kept it from you. Little thief, do you still want to lie to me? You...how can you stand up to me? " Xu Zhu was shocked, he quickly put her down on the ground, and asked: "Senior, you... what did you say?" Child Elder's face turned purple, tears rolled down, she shouted: "You and Li Qiushui are so cheap The person has an affair, isn't it? You still want to deny it? You still refuse to admit it? Otherwise, how could she pass on the 'Little Wuxiang Gong' to you? Little thief, you... You have made it hard for me to hide it." Xu Zhu Confused, he asked, "What's 'Little Wuxiang Gong'?" Child Elder froze for a moment, then collected herself, wiped away her tears, sighed, and said: "It's nothing. Your master can't help me." It turned out that when Xu Zhu recited the scriptures, he passed many difficulties quickly, especially when he recited them backwards, the Child Elder suddenly remembered that it must be because he had practiced the "Small Formless Skill".Although she, Wu Yazi and Li Qiushui were passed down from the same teacher, they each have their own unique skills. The three of them learned quite differently. The master of "Little Wuxiang Gong" only passed on Li Qiushui, which is her self-defense. The magical power is extremely powerful. Li Qiushui relied on the "Small Formless Skill" to save his life when the child elder abused her several times.Although Child Elder doesn't know this kung fu, but she is very familiar with the situation when using this kung fu, at this moment, she finds that Xu Zhu not only has this kung fu, but also the kung fu is profound, in a fright and anger, she treats Xu Zhu as Wu Zhu Yazi, beat him up.When he was sober, thinking of Wu Yazi colluding with Li Qiushui behind his back, he was angry and hurt himself. That night, Child Elder could not stop scolding Wu Yazi and Li Qiushui severely.Xu Zhu listened to her scolding viciously, but his pain was actually more than resentment, thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel sorry for her, and persuaded: "Senior, life is impermanent, impermanence is suffering, all troubles are caused by greed, hatred and ignorance. Senior, as long as you stay away from these three poisons, don’t miss your junior brother or hate your junior sister, then you will have no troubles in your heart.” Child Elder said angrily, “I want to miss your heartless master, but I want to hate that bitch who is not afraid of ugliness. The more troubled I am, the happier I am." Xu Zhu shook his head, he didn't dare to persuade him any more. The next day Child Elder taught him the formula of the second palm technique.In this way, the two of them were on their way while practicing their skills.On the evening of the fifth day, I saw that there were many people in front of me, and I came to a big city.Child Elder said: "This is Lingzhou, the capital city of Western Xia, you still haven't read the formulas well, today we will stay in the west of Lingzhou, tomorrow we will go west for 200 li, and then come back by detour." Xu Zhu said "Shall we go to Lingzhou?" Child Elder said: "Of course we are going to Lingzhou, if we don't go to Lingzhou, how can we say we are going deep into a dangerous place?" After another day, Xu Zhu has memorized all six formulas of "Tianshan Zhemeishou" by heart.Child Elder taught him how to apply it in the wilderness.One of her legs was broken, she had to sit on the ground and fight with Xu Zhu.Although this "Tianshan Zhemei Shou" has only six ways, it contains the essence of Xiaoyao School's martial arts. In palm and grasping hands, it contains sword skills, knife skills, whip skills, spear skills, grasping skills, ax skills, etc. All kinds of unique moves of weapons are complex and complicated, Xu Zhu can't learn so many for a while.Child Elder said: "My 'Tianshan Zhemei Shou' can never be fully learned. In the future, the higher your internal strength is, the more knowledge you will have, and any martial art in the world can be automatically transformed into this 'Six-way Zhemei Shou'. Okay. After you have learned the formula, how much you learn later is entirely up to you." Xu Zhu said: "The juniors learn this kind of kung fu just to protect the seniors, after the seniors return the merits and return to the Yuan, the juniors return to the Shaolin Temple, they have to try to forget everything the seniors have taught them, and practice Shaolin Temple's own kung fu again. " Child Elder looked left and right at him, her expression was very surprised, she seemed to have seen an extremely strange monster, after a while, she sighed and said: "My Tianshan Zhemei Shou, is it the martial arts of any Shaolin sect? What can be compared? You are too stupid to give up jade and tiles. But it is not easy for you, a little monk, to forget your roots. You close your eyes and take a rest. After dark, we will go to Lingzhou City!"
At the second watch, Child Elder ordered Xu Zhu to carry her on his back, ran to the outside of Lingzhou City, jumped over the moat, climbed up the city wall, and slid down the ground.I saw groups of armored cavalry holding torches high and patrolling back and forth.This time when Xu Zhu left the temple and went down the mountain, he saw many Song soldiers on the way, compared with these brave and brave soldiers and horses of Xixia Kingdom, they are far inferior. Child Elder pointed out softly, and ordered him to stick to the high wall and walk towards the northwest corner. After walking for more than three miles, he saw a tall building soaring into the sky, and behind the tall buildings, there were many piles of tall buildings, all of which were grand houses with golden and green roofs, all glazed tiles .Xu Zhu saw that the roofs of these big houses were vaguely similar to Shaolin Temple, but they were more magnificent than Shaolin Temple, so he said in a low voice: "Amitabha, there is a big temple here." Child Elder couldn't help smiling lightly, and said: "Little monk I really don't know, this is the imperial palace of Xixia Kingdom, but it is said to be a big temple." Xu Zhu was startled, and said: "Is this the imperial palace? What are we doing here?" Child Elder said: "Take care of the emperor's protection. Li Qiushui couldn't find my body, knowing that I was not dead, even if he turned the land over, he still wanted to find my whereabouts. There is only one place within a radius of 2000 li She won't look for it, that's her own home." Xu Zhu said: "Senior is really smart, if we endure one more day, senior's skill will increase by one year. Then we will go to your junior sister's home Let it go." Child Elder said: "This is her home... Be careful, someone is coming." Xu Zhu shrunk and hid in the corner, he saw four figures coming from east to west, followed by another four figures coming from west, eight people crossed and patted their palms lightly, and went around.Look at the agile figure of these eight people, it is obvious that their martial arts are not weak.Child Elder said: "The imperial guards have inspected, quickly climbed into the palace wall, after a while, another inspector came." Xu Zhu saw this kind of momentum, he couldn't help being timid, he said: "There are so many masters in the palace, if you give them See you, that's terrible. Let's go to your junior sister's house." Child Elder said angrily: "I said earlier, this is her home." Xu Zhu said: "You said this is the imperial palace." Child Elder said: "Silly Monk, this bitch is the Imperial Concubine, the Imperial Palace is her home." This sentence was beyond Xu Zhu's expectation, he never dreamed that Li Qiushui would be from Xixia Kingdom The imperial concubine was stunned, and saw four figures looting from north to south.When those four people passed by, Xu Zhu said: "Qian..." He only said one word "Qian", Child Elder has already stretched out her hand to press his mouth, she was stunned, and saw four people coming out from behind the high wall , quietly patrolling over.These four people came out of nowhere, people never expected that there would be someone hiding in this dark corner.When these four people walked away, Child Elder patted him on the back and said: "Go in through that small alley." Xu Zhu saw the vigor of the sixteen people patrolling the palace just now, he knew that he had entered a dangerous place, if he didn't have the guidance of the child elder, he wanted to withdraw immediately, and he had to be discovered by these many imperial guards, he immediately took responsibility as promised Follow her into the alley.There are high walls on both sides of the small alley, which is actually a gap between the two palaces. Passing through this narrow passage, I crouched down among the peonies for a while, waiting for the eight imperial guards to pass by, and penetrated into a large rockery.This piece of rockery winds its way to the north, stretching for fifty or sixty feet.Every time Xu Zhu walks a few zhang, he stops and hides according to Child Elder's instructions, it's strange, every time after hiding, there will always be imperial guards passing by, it seems that Child Elder is the head of the imperial guards, there are people patrolling everywhere, what? Sometimes there are guards passing by, and she knows them all well, half of them are not bad.After walking around like this for half an hour, I saw that the houses in the front, back, left, and right were much smaller and simpler, and the imperial guards did not show up again. Child Elder pointed to a big stone house on the front left, said: "Go there." Xu Zhu saw that there is a big open space in front of that stone house, the moonlight is like water, shining on this open space, there is no shelter around, so he raised his hand immediately In one breath, he galloped forward.I saw that the walls of the stone house were all made of big stones four to five feet square, which were unusually thick, and the gate was a row of eight original pine trees cut in half and nailed together.Child Elder said: "Open the door and go in!" Xu Zhu's heart was beating wildly, he said in a trembling voice: "You...your junior sister lives...living here?" Thinking of Li Qiushui's harsh hands, he really dare not go in.童姥道：“不是。拉开了大门。” 虚竹握住门上大铁环，拉开大门，只觉这扇门着实沉重。大门之后紧接着又有一道门，一阵寒气从门内渗了出来。其时天时渐暖，高峰虽仍积雪，平地上早已冰融雪消，花开似锦绣，但这道内门的门上却结了一层薄薄白霜。童姥道：“向里推。”虚竹伸手一推，那门缓缓开了，只开得尺许一条缝，便有一股寒气迎面扑来。推门进去，只见里面堆满了一袋袋装米麦的麻袋，高与屋顶相接，显是一个粮仓，左侧留了个窄窄的通道。 他好生奇怪，低声问道：“这粮仓之中怎地如此寒冷？”童姥笑道：“把门关上。咱们进了冰库，看来是没事了！”虚竹奇道：“冰库？这不是粮仓么？”一面说，一面将两道门关上了。童姥心情甚好，笑道：“进去瞧瞧。” 两道门一关上，仓库中黑漆一团，伸手不见五指，虚竹摸索着从左侧进去，越到里面，寒气越盛，左手伸将出去，碰到了一片又冷又硬、湿漉漉之物，显然是一大块坚冰。正奇怪间，童姥已晃亮火折，霎时之间，虚竹眼前出现了一片奇景，只见前后左右，都是一大块、一大块割切得方方正正的大冰块，火光闪烁照射在冰块之上，忽青忽蓝，甚是奇幻。 童姥道：“咱们到底下去。”她扶着冰块，右腿一跳一跳，当先而行，在冰块间转了几转，从屋角的一个大洞中走了下去。虚竹跟随其后，只见洞下是一列石阶，走完石阶，下面又是一大屋子的冰块。童姥道：“这冰库多半还有一层。”果然第二层之下，又有一间大石室，也藏满了冰块。 童姥吹熄火折，坐了下来，道：“咱们深入地底第三层了，那贱人再鬼灵精，也未必能找得到童姥。”说着长长的吁了口气。几日来她脸上虽然显得十分镇定，心中却着实焦虑，西夏国高手如云，深入皇宫内院而要避过众高手的耳目，一半固须机警谨慎，一半却也全凭运气；直到此刻，方始略略放心。 虚竹叹道：“奇怪，奇怪！”童姥道：“奇怪什么？”虚竹道：“这西夏国的皇宫，居然将这许多不值分文的冰块窖藏了起来，那有什么用？”童姥笑道：“这冰块这时候不值分文，到了炎夏，那便珍贵得很了。你倒想想，盛暑之时，太阳犹似火蒸炭焙，人人汗出如浆，要是身边放上两块大冰，莲子绿豆汤或是薄荷百合汤中放上几粒冰珠，滋味如何？”虚竹这才恍然大悟，说道：“妙极，妙极！只不过将这许多大冰块搬了进来贮藏，花的功夫力气着实不小，那不是太也费事么？”童姥更是好笑，说道：“做皇帝的一呼百诺，要什么有什么，他还会怕什么费事？你道要皇帝老儿自己动手，将这些大冰块推进冰库来吗？” 虚竹点头道：“做皇帝也是享福得紧了。只不过此生享福太多，福报一尽，来生就未必好了。前辈，你从前来过这里么？怎么这些御前护卫什么时候到何处巡查，你一切全都清清楚楚？”童姥道：“这皇宫我自然来过的。我找这贱人的晦气，岂只来过一次？那些御前护卫呼吸粗重，十丈之外我便听见了，那有什么希奇。”虚竹道：“原来如此。前辈，你天生神耳，当真非常人可及。”童姥道：“什么天生神耳？那是练出来的功夫。” 虚竹听到“练出来的功夫”六字，猛地想起，冰库中并无飞禽走兽，难获热血，不知她如何练功？又想仓库中粮食倒极多，但冰库中无法举火，难道就以生米、生麦为食？ 童姥听他久不作声，问道：“你在想什么？”虚竹说了，童姥笑道：“你道那些麻袋中装的是粮食么？那都是棉花，免得外边热气进来，融了冰块。嘿嘿，你吃棉花不吃？”虚竹道：“如此说来，我们须得到外面去寻食了？”童姥道：“御厨中活鸡活鸭，那还少了？不过鸡鸭猪羊之血没什么灵气，不及雪峰上的梅花鹿和羚羊。咱们这就到御花园去捉些仙鹤、孔雀、鸳鸯、鹦鹉之类来，我喝血，你吃肉，那就对付了。” 虚竹忙道：“不成，不成。小僧如何能杀生吃荤？”心想童姥已到了安全之所，不必再由自己陪伴，说道：“小僧是佛门子弟，不能见你残杀众生，我……我这就要告辞了。”童姥道：“你到哪里去？”虚竹道：“小僧回少林寺去。”童姥大怒，道：“你不能走，须得在这里陪我，等我练成神功，取了那贱人性命，这才放你。” 虚竹听她说练成神功之后要杀李秋水，更加不愿陪着她造恶业，站起身来，说道：“前辈，小僧便要劝你，你也一定是不肯听的。何况小僧知识浅薄，笨嘴笨舌，也想不出什么话来相劝，我看冤家宜解不宜结，得放手时且放手罢。”一面说，一面走向石阶。 童姥喝道：“给我站住，我不许你走。” 虚竹道：“小僧要去了！”他本想说“但愿你神功练成”，但随及想到她神功一成，不但李秋水性命危险，而乌老大这些三十六洞洞主、七十二岛岛主，以及慕容复、段誉等等，只怕要个个死于非命，越想越怕，伸足跨上了石阶。 突然间双膝一麻，翻身跌倒，跟着腰眼里又是一酸，全身动弹不得，知道是给童姥点了穴道。黑暗中她身子不动，凌空虚点，便封住了自己要穴，看来在这高手之前，自己只有听由摆布，全无反抗的余地。他心中一静，便念起经来：“修道苦至，当念往劫，舍本逐末，多起爱憎。今虽无犯，是我宿作，甘心受之，都无怨诉。经云：逢苦不忧，识达故也……” 童姥插口道：“你念的是什么鬼经？”虚竹道：“善哉，善哉！这是菩提达摩的《入道四行经》。”童姥道：“达摩是你少林寺的老祖宗，我只道他真有通天彻地之能，哪知道婆婆妈妈，是个没骨气的臭和尚。”虚竹道：“阿弥陀佛，阿弥陀佛，前辈不可妄言。” 童姥道：“你这鬼经中言道，修道时逢到困苦，那是由于往昔宿作，要甘心受之，都无怨诉。那么无论旁人如何厉害的折磨你，你都甘心受之、都无怨诉么？”虚竹道：“小僧修为浅薄，于外魔侵袭、内魔萌生之际，只怕难以抗御。”童姥道：“现下你本门少林派的功夫是一点也没有了，逍遥派的功夫又只学得一点儿，有失无得，糟糕之极。你听我的话，我将逍遥派的神功尽数传你，那时你无敌于天下，岂不光彩？” 虚竹双手合十，又念经道：“众生无我，苦乐随缘。纵得荣誉等事，宿因所构，今方得之。缘尽还无，何喜之有？得失随缘，心无增减。” 童姥喝道：“呸呸，胡说八道。你武功低微，处处受人欺侮，好比现下你给我封住了穴道，我要打你骂你，你都反抗不得。又如我神功未成，只好躲在这里，让李秋水那贱人在外面强凶霸道。你师父给你这幅图画，还不是叫你求人传授武功，收拾丁春秋这小鬼？这世界上强的欺侮人，弱的受人欺侮，你想平安快乐，便非做天下第一强者不可。” 虚竹念经道：“世人长迷，处处贪着，名之为求。禅师悟真，理与俗反，安心无为，形随运转。三界皆苦，谁而得安？经曰：有求皆苦，无求乃乐。” 虚竹虽无才辩，这经文却是念得极熟。这篇《入道四行经》是昙琳所笔录，那昙琳是达摩自南天竺来华后所收弟子，经中记的是达摩祖师的微言法语，也只寥寥数百字，是少林寺众僧所必读。他随口而诵，却将童姥的话都一一驳倒了。 童姥生性最是要强好胜，数十年来言出法随，座下侍女仆妇固然无人敢顶她一句嘴，而三十六洞、七十二岛这些桀傲不驯的奇人异士，也是个个将她奉作天神一般，今日却给这小和尚驳得哑口无言。她大怒之下，举起右掌，便向虚竹顶门拍了下去。手掌将要碰到他脑门的“百会穴”上，突然想起：“我将这小和尚一掌击毙，他无知无觉，仍然道是他这片歪理对而我错了，哼哼，世上哪有这等便宜事？”当即收回手掌，自行调息运功。 过得片刻，她跳上石阶，推门而出，折了一根树枝支撑，径往御花园中奔去。这时她功力已十分了得，虽断了一腿，仍然身轻如叶，一众御前护卫如何能够知觉？在园中捉了两头白鹤，两头孔雀，回入冰库。虚竹听得她出去，又听到她回来，再听到禽鸟的鸣叫之声，念了几声“阿弥陀佛”，既无法可施，也只有任之自然。 次日午时将届，冰库中无昼无夜，一团漆黑。童姥体内真气翻涌，知道练功之时将届，便咬开一头白鹤的咽喉，吮吸其血。她练完功后，又将一头白鹤的喉管咬开。 虚竹听到声音，劝道：“前辈，这头鸟儿，你留到明天再用罢，何必多杀一条性命？”童姥笑道：“我是好心，弄给你吃的。”虚竹大惊，道：“不，不！小僧万万不吃。”童姥左手伸出，拿住了他下颏，虚竹无法抗御，嘴巴自然而然的张了开来。童姥倒提白鹤，将鹤血都灌入了他口中。虚竹只觉一股炙热的血液顺喉而下，拚命想闭住喉咙，但穴道为童姥所制，实是不由自主，心中又气又急，两行热泪夺眶而出。 童姥灌罢鹤血，右手抵在他背心的灵台穴上，助他真气运转，随即又点了他“关元”、“天突”两穴，令他无法呕出鹤血，嘻嘻笑道：“小和尚，你佛家戒律，不食荤腥，这戒是破了罢？一戒既破，再破二戒又有何妨？哼，世上有谁跟我作对，我便跟他作对到底。总而言之，我要叫你做不成和尚。”虚竹甚是气苦，说不出话来。 童姥笑道：“经云：有求皆苦，无求乃乐。你一心要遵守佛戒，那便是'求'了，求而不得，心中便苦。须得安心无为，形随运转，佛戒能遵便遵，不能遵便不遵，那才叫做'无求'，哈哈，哈哈，哈哈！” 如此过了两个多月，童姥已回复到八十几岁时的功力，出入冰库和御花园时直如无形鬼魅，若不是忌惮李秋水，早就已离开皇宫他去了。她每日喝血练功之后，总是点了虚竹的穴道，将禽兽的鲜血生肉塞入他腹中，待过得两个时辰，虚竹肚中食物消化净尽，无法呕出，这才解开他穴道。虚竹在冰库中被迫茹毛饮血，过着暗无天日的日子，实是苦恼不堪，只有诵念经文中“逢苦不忧，识达故也”的句子，强自慰解。 这一日童姥又听他在唠唠叨叨的念什么“修道苦至，当念往劫”，什么“甘心受之，都无怨诉”，冷笑道：“你是兔鹿鹤雀，什么荤腥都尝过了，还成什么和尚？还念什么经？”虚竹道：“小僧为前辈所逼迫，非出自愿，就不算破戒。”童姥冷笑道：“倘若无人逼迫，你自己是决计不破戒的？”虚竹道：“小僧洁身自爱，决不敢坏了佛门的规矩。”童姥道：“好，咱们便试一试。”这日便不逼迫虚竹喝血吃肉。虚竹甚喜，连声道谢。 次日童姥仍不强他吃肉饮血。虚竹只饿得肚中咕咕直响，说道：“前辈，你神功即将练成，已不须小僧伺候了。小僧便欲告辞。”童姥道：“我不许你走。”虚竹道：“小僧肚饿得紧，那么相烦前辈找些青菜白饭充饥。”童姥道：“那倒可以。”便即点了他的穴道，使他无法逃走，自行出去。过不多时，回到冰库中来。 虚竹只闻到一阵香气扑鼻，登时满嘴都是馋涎。托托托三声，童姥将三只大碗放在他的面前，道：“一碗红烧肉，一碗清蒸肥鸡，一碗糖醋鲤鱼，快来吃罢！”虚竹惊道：“阿弥陀佛，小僧宁死不吃。”三大碗肥鸡鱼肉的香气不住冲到他鼻中，他强自忍住，自管念经。童姥挟起碗中鸡肉，吃得津津有味，连声赞美，虚竹却只念佛。 第三日童姥又去御厨中取了几碗荤菜来，火腿、海参、熊掌、烤鸭，香气更是浓郁。虚竹虽然饿得虚弱无力，却始终忍住不吃。童姥心想：“在我跟前，你要强好胜，是决计不肯取食的。”于是走出冰库之外，半日不归，心想：“只怕你非偷食不可。”哪知回来后将这几碗菜肴拿到光亮下一看，竟然连一滴汤水也没动过。 到得第九日时，虚竹念经的力气也没了，只咬些冰块解渴，却从不伸手去碰放在面前的荤腥。童姥大怒，伸手抓住他的胸口，将一碗红烧肘子一块块的塞入他口中。她虽然强着虚竹吃荤，却知这场比拚终于是自己输了，狂怒之下，劈劈拍拍的连打了他三四十个耳光，喝骂：“死和尚，你和姥姥作对，要知道姥姥的厉害！”虚竹不嗔不怒，只轻轻念佛。 此后数日之中，童姥总是大鱼大肉去灌他。虚竹逆来顺受，除了念经，便是睡觉。
这一日睡梦之中，虚竹忽然闻到一阵甜甜的幽香，这香气既非佛像前烧的檀香，也不是鱼肉的菜香，只觉得全身通泰，说不出的舒服，迷迷糊糊之中，又觉得有一样软软的物事靠在自己胸前，他一惊而醒，伸手去一摸，着手处柔腻温暖，竟是一个不穿衣服之人的身体。他大吃一惊，道：“前辈，你……你怎么了？” 那人道：“我……我在什么地方啊？怎地这般冷？”喉音娇嫩，是个少女声音，绝非童姥。虚竹更加惊得呆了，颤声问道：“你……你……是谁？”那少女道：“我……我……好冷，你又是谁？”说着便往虚竹身上靠去。 虚竹待要站起身来相避，一撑持间，左手扶住了那少女的肩头，右手却揽在她柔软纤细的腰间。虚竹今年二十四岁，生平只和阿紫、童姥、李秋水三个女人说过话，这二十四年之中，只在少林寺中念经参禅。但好色而慕少艾，乃是人之天性，虚竹虽然谨守戒律，每逢春暖花开之日，亦不免心头荡漾，幻想男女之事。只是他不知女人究竟如何，所有想像，当然怪诞离奇，莫衷一是，更是从来不敢与师兄弟提及。此刻双手碰到了那少女柔腻娇嫩的肌肤，一颗心简直要从口腔中跳了出来，却是再难释手。 那少女嘤咛一声，转过身来，伸手勾住了他头颈。虚竹但觉那少女吹气如兰，口脂香阵阵袭来，不由得天旋地转，全身发抖，颤声道：“你……你……你……”那少女道：“我好冷，可是心里又好热。”虚竹难以自己，双手微一用力，将她抱在怀里。那少女“唔，唔”两声，凑过嘴来，两人吻在一起。 虚竹所习的少林派禅功已尽数为无崖子化去，定力全失，他是个未经人事的壮男，当此天地间第一大诱惑袭来之时，竟丝毫不加抗御，将那少女愈抱愈紧，片刻间神游物外，竟不知身在何处。那少女更是热情如火，将虚竹当作了爱侣。 也不知过了多少时候，虚竹欲火渐熄，大叫一声：“啊哟！”要待跳起身来。 但那少女仍紧紧搂抱着他，腻声道：“别……别离开我。”虚竹神智清明，也只一瞬间事，随即又将那少女抱在怀中，轻怜密爱，竟无厌足。 两人缠在一起，又过了大半个时辰，那少女道：“好哥哥，你是谁？”这六个字娇柔婉转，但在虚竹听来，宛似半空中打了个霹雳，颤声道：“我……我大大的错了。”那少女道：“你为什么大大的错了？” 虚竹结结巴巴的无法回答，只道：“我……我是……”突然间胁下一麻，被人点中了穴道，跟着一块毛毡盖上来，那赤裸的少女离开了他的怀抱。虚竹叫道：“你……你别走，别走！”黑暗中一人嘿嘿嘿的冷笑三声，正是童姥的声音。虚竹一惊之下，险些晕去，瘫软在地，脑海中只是一片空白。耳听得童姥抱了那少女，走出冰库。 过不多时，童姥便即回来，笑道：“小和尚，我让你享尽了人间艳福，你如何谢我？”虚竹道：“我……我……”心中兀自浑浑沌沌，说不出话来。童姥解开他穴道，笑道：“佛门子弟要不要守淫戒？这是你自己犯呢？还是被姥姥逼迫？你这口是心非、风流好色的小和尚，你倒说说，是姥姥赢了，还是你赢了？哈哈，哈哈，哈哈！”越笑越响，得意之极。 虚竹心下恍然，知道童姥为了恼他宁死不肯食荤，却去掳了一个少女来，诱得他破了淫戒，不由得又是悔恨，又是羞耻，突然间纵起身来，脑袋疾往坚冰上撞去，砰的一声大响，掉在地下。 童姥大吃一惊，没料到这小和尚性子如此刚烈，才从温柔乡中回来，便图自尽，忙伸手将他拉起，一摸之下，幸好尚有鼻息，但头顶已撞破一洞，汩汩流血，忙替他裹好了伤，喂以一枚“九转熊蛇丸”，骂道：“你发疯了？若不是你体内已有北冥真气，这一撞已然送了你的小命。”虚竹垂泪道：“小僧罪孽深重，害人害己，再也不能做人了。”童姥道：“嘿嘿，要是每个和尚犯了戒便图自尽，天下还有几个活着的和尚？” 虚竹一怔，想起自戕性命，乃是佛门大戒，自己愤激之下，竟又犯了一戒。 他倚在冰块之上，浑没了主意，心中自怨自责，却又不自禁的想起那少女来，适才种种温柔旖旎之事，绵绵不绝的涌上心头，突然问道：“那……那位姑娘，她是谁？” 童姥哈哈一笑，道：“这位姑娘今年一十七岁，端丽秀雅，无双无对。” 适才黑暗之中，虚竹看不到那少女的半分容貌，但肌肤相接，柔音入耳，想像起来也必是个十分容色的美女，听童姥说她“端丽秀雅，无双无对”，不由得长长叹了口气。童姥微笑道：“你想她不想？”虚竹不敢说谎，却又不便直承其事，只得又叹了一口气。 此后的几个时辰，他全在迷迷糊糊中过去。童姥再拿鸡鸭鱼肉之类荤食放在他面前，虚竹起了自暴自弃之心，寻思：“我已成佛门罪人，既拜入了别派门下，又犯了杀戒、淫戒，还成什么佛门弟子？”拿起鸡肉便吃，只是食而不知其味，怔怔的又流下泪来。童姥笑道：“率性而行，是谓真人，这才是个好小子呢。” 再过两个时辰，童姥竟又去将那裸体少女用毛毡裹了来，送入他的怀中，自行走上第二层冰窖，让他二人留在第三层冰窖中。 那少女悠悠叹了口气，道：“我又做这怪梦了，真叫我又是害怕，又是……又是……”虚竹道：“又是怎样？”那少女抱着他的头颈，柔声道：“又是欢喜。”说着将右颊贴在他左颊之上。虚竹只觉她脸上热烘烘地，不觉动情，伸手抱了她纤腰。那少女道：“好哥哥，我到底是不是在做梦？要说是梦，为什么我清清楚楚知道你抱着我？我摸得到你的脸，摸得到你的胸膛，摸得到你的手臂。”她一面说，一面轻轻抚摸虚竹的面颊、胸膛，又道：“要说不是做梦，我怎么好端端的睡在床上，突然间会……会身上没了衣裳，到了这又冷又黑的地方？这里寒冷黑暗，却又有一个你，有一个你在等着我、怜我、惜我？” 虚竹心想：“原来你被童姥掳来，也是迷迷糊糊的，神智不清。”只听那少女又柔声道：“平日我一听到陌生男人的声音也要害羞，怎么一到了这地方，我便……我便心神荡漾，不由自主？唉，说是梦，又不像梦，说不像梦，又像是梦。昨晚上做了这个奇梦，今儿晚上又做，难道……难道，我真的和你是前世因缘么？好哥哥，你到底是谁？”虚竹失魂落魄的道：“我……我是……”要说“我是和尚”，这句话总是说不出口。 那少女突然伸出手来，按住了他嘴，低声道：“你别跟我说，我……我心里害怕。”虚竹抱着她身子的双臂紧了一紧，问道：“你怕什么？”那少女道：“我怕你一出口，我这场梦便醒了。你是我的梦中情郎，我叫你'梦郎'，梦郎，梦郎，你说这名字好不好？”她本来按在虚竹嘴上的手掌移了开去，抚摸他
Xu Zhu only felt that his body was vain, he had no control over what he could do, he just fell straight, the wind whistled in his ears, although it happened in an instant, it seemed endless, the fall would never stop.Seeing the snow-covered hillside rushing towards him, when his eyes dazzled, he saw a few black spots in the snow that were slowly moving.Before he could take a closer look, he swooped down the hillside. Suddenly someone yelled: "Who is it?" A force pushes him from the side and hits Xu Zhu's waist.Before Xu Zhu's body touched the ground, he flew out obliquely, at a glance, he saw that the person who pushed him was Murong Fu, he was overjoyed, he wanted to throw Child Elder out, let Murong Fu catch him, in order to save her life . Murong Fu saw the two fell from the mountain peak, he couldn't see who they were for a while, so he used the unique skill of "Dou Zhuan Xing Yi", which was handed down from his family, turned the force of their fall into a horizontal direction, and moved the two of them horizontally.His "Fighting and Star Shifting" kung fu is not self-reliant at all, but Xu Zhu and Child Elder fell from the height with too much force, Murong Fu felt dizzy for an instant, almost fell down. Xu Zhu was forced by this huge force, the Child Elder in his hand couldn't be thrown out, his body flew more than ten zhang and fell down, his feet suddenly stepped on an extremely soft yet extremely tough object, there was a bang , The body bounced up again.Xu Zhu glanced at it, he saw a short, fat, fleshy person lying on the snow, but it was Sangtu Gong.It's really coincidental, when Xu Zhu landed on the ground, his feet kicked on his big belly, he kicked his belly broken immediately, and died unexpectedly, but luckily his big belly bounced, Xu Zhu's legs were saved, Not broken.Under this bounce, Xu Zhu involuntarily flew horizontally again, rushing towards a person, he could vaguely see that it was Duan Yu.Xu Zhu yelled: "Duan Xianggong, dodge quickly! I'm rushing over!" Duan Yu saw that Xu Zhu was coming very fast, he couldn't hold him no matter what, he shouted: "I'll hold you up!" He turned around, put his back on each other, at the same time he spread out Lingbo micro-steps, went straight forward, one at a time For a moment, he felt that his back was so heavy that he could barely breathe, but with every step, the strength on his back disappeared a bit, and he ran more than thirty steps in one breath, Xu Zhu gently slipped on his back down. The two of them fell from a height of several hundreds of feet, just as Murong Fu disappeared, Sang Tugong bounced, and finally they were carried on Duan Yu's back and ran, after three twists and turns, they were not injured at all.Xu Zhu straightened his body, said: "Amitabha! Thank you all for your help!" But he didn't know that Mr. Sangtu had already been trampled to death by him, otherwise he must have felt extremely guilty.Suddenly, a call was heard, uploaded from the hillside.After Child Elder broke her leg, although she bled a lot, she still did not lose her sanity, she said in shock: "No, this bastard has been chased down. Hurry up, hurry up." Xu Zhu thought of Li Qiushui's cruelty, he couldn't help shivering, hugged Child Elder , and rushed into the woods.
Li Qiushui rushes down from the hillside, although his footsteps are quick, it can't be compared with Xu Zhu's straight fall, in fact the distance is still far away, but Xu Zhu is afraid in his heart, he dare not stop for a moment.He ran for a few miles, and the child elder said: "Let me down, tear off the skirt of my clothes and wrap up my leg injury, so as not to leave bloodstains and be chased by that bitch. You are at my 'Huantiao' and 'Qimen' acupoints Put a few fingers on it, stop the bleeding and slow the flow." Xu Zhu said: "Yes!" He followed the words, while paying attention to Li Qiushui's movements.Child Elder took out a yellow pill from her bosom and took it, said: "This bastard has a deep hatred with me, no matter what, he can't let me go. I have seventy-nine days before I can recover my miraculous power, then I won't be afraid This bitch. Where should I hide for these seventy-nine days?" Xu Zhu frowned, thought: "It's difficult to hide for half a day, but where to hide for seventy-nine days?" Child Elder said to herself: "If you hide in your Shaolin Temple, it would be a wonderful place... ..." Xu Zhu was startled, his whole body trembled.Child Elder said angrily: "Dead Monk, what are you afraid of? Shaolin Temple is thousands of miles away, how can we get there?" She turned her head and said: "From now on, if you go west for more than a hundred miles, you will be Xixia Kingdom. This slut has a long history with the Xixia Kingdom, if she sends an order to all the masters of the Xixia Kingdom’s Yipin Hall to search for it, it will be difficult to escape her murderous hand. Little monk, where do you think we should hide?” Xu Zhu said: "Let's hide in the cave in the deep mountains for seventy or eighty days, I'm afraid your junior sister may not be able to find it." Child Elder said: "What do you know? If this bitch can't find me, it must be Go to Xixia country to call for a group of dogs, once those hundreds of hounds with extremely sensitive noses move out, no matter where we hide, these beasts will find them." Xu Zhu said: "Then we have to escape to the southeast , the farther away from Xixia Kingdom, the better." Child Elder snorted, and said bitterly: "This bastard has many eyes and ears, of course there are people on the southeast road." She pondered for a while, then suddenly clapped her hands and said: "Yes, little monk, you can untie the Wuyazi one." Zhenlong chess game, where is the first move?" Xu Zhu thought that at this critical moment, he still had the heart to talk about the chess game, so he said: "The little monk closed his eyes and made a random move, and for no reason, he glanced at himself and threw himself The chess pieces killed a large piece." Child Elder said happily: "Yes, for decades, I don't know how many people who are a hundred times smarter than you can't solve this Zhenlong, just because they are looking for their own death, and no one will do it. Wonderful, wonderful Extreme! Little monk, you carried me up the tree, go west quickly." Xu Zhu said: "Where are we going?" Child Elder said: "Going to a place that no one expected, although it is dangerous, but it is safe I have to take a risk if I die and live later." Xu Zhu looked at her broken leg, sighed, and said in his heart: "You can't walk, I don't want to take risks, and that won't happen." Seeing that she is seriously injured, the scruples about intimacy between men and women no longer take it to heart Go up, carry her on his back, jump up the treetops, follow the direction Child Elder pointed, and walk westward. After running for more than ten miles at a stretch, I suddenly heard a soft and round voice shouting in the distance: "Little monk, did you fall to your death? Sister, where are you? Sister misses you so much, come out quickly!" " Xu Zhu heard Li Qiushui's voice, his legs went limp, he almost fell off the treetop. Child Elder scolded: "The little monk is useless, what are you afraid of? You heard her screaming and going further away, didn't you chase east?" Sure enough, hearing the cries gradually fade away, Xu Zhu admired Child Elder's wise plan, he said: "She...how does she know that we are about to fall from a mountain hundreds of zhang high, but we are not dead?" Child Elder said: "Of course there are people talking too much." After pondering for a while, he said: "Grandma hasn't descended from the Misty Peak for decades, and she never expected that martial arts in the world will develop so quickly. The young master who defuses our downward trend, this palm uses strength to strike , Four or two strokes of a thousand catties, really amazing. Who is that other young master? How did he get 'Lingbo Weibu'?" She was talking to herself, not asking Xu Zhu.Xu Zhu was afraid that Li Qiushui would catch up to him, he just ran quickly, he didn't listen to what Child Elder said. After reaching the flat ground, he still chose to walk on small paths, spent the night in the dense forest and long grass, and set out the next morning, the child elder still pointed to the west.Xu Zhu said: "Senior, you said that Xixia Kingdom is not far to the west, I think we can't go west any more." Child Elder sneered: "Why can't we go west again?" Xu Zhu said: "What if Breaking into the border of Xixia Kingdom, is it not a trap?" Child Elder said: "The land you set foot on is already the territory of Xixia Kingdom!" Xu Zhu was taken aback, and shouted: "What? This is the land of Xixia? You said... You said that your junior sister has great influence in Xixia country?" Child Elder laughed: "Yes! Xixia is this bitch who is rampant Where the wind is the wind and the rain is the rain, we broke into her root, and she would never have guessed when she died. She searched desperately, but I was quiet in her lair Practicing? Haha, haha!" He said very proudly, and then said: "Little monk, I learned your tricks, playing the most stupid and unreasonable chess pieces, but in the end it has a great effect." Xu Zhu felt admiration, he said: "Senior's magic calculation is really unpredictable, but...just..." Child Elder said: "Just what?" Xu Zhu said: "Then Li Qiushui's root is in the center , there must be others, if they find our traces..." Child Elder said: "Hmph, if it is a place where there is no one, what kind of adventure can it be? What a hero does." Xu Zhu thought to himself: "If it's for saving people and the world, it's worth going through hardships and dangers, but you and Li Qiushui are the same, neither one is necessarily a good person, so why should I go out of my way for you risk?" Seeing the hesitation and embarrassment on his face, Child Elder already guessed his thoughts, and said: "I told you to take risks, of course there will be good rewards for you, I will never make your hard work in vain. Now I will teach you the three ways of palming, the three ways of grasping, the six ways of kung fu together are called 'Tianshan zhemeishou'." Xu Zhu said: "Senior's serious injury has not healed, it's not suitable to be overworked, it's better to rest for a while." Child Elder rolled her eyes and said: "Do you think my kung fu is heretical, don't bother to learn it?" Xu Zhu said: "This... this... this... this junior has absolutely no such intentions, you must not misunderstand." Child Elder said: "You are the descendant of the Xiaoyao Sect, and my 'Tianshan Zhemei Shou' is the best martial art of our sect. Why don't you want to learn?" Xu Zhu said: "The junior is from Shaolin School, it has absolutely nothing to do with Xiaoyao School." Child Elder said: "Bah! You have the internal strength of the Happy School, and you said that you have nothing to do with the Happy School, you are really talking nonsense. Tianshan Child Elder is a human being, and has never done things that benefit others. I teach you martial arts, yes For my own benefit, just because I want to use your hands to resist powerful enemies. If you don't learn the six ways of "Tianshan Zhemei Hand", you must be buried in Xixia Kingdom. The little monk died in Xixia, it doesn't matter, you Grandma can't live with you." Xu Zhu replied: "Yes!" He thinks that although this person has bad intentions, he said everything, he is a "true villain". At that moment, the child elder taught him the formula of the first step of "Tianshan Zhemei Hand".This formula consists of seven characters and one sentence, with a total of twelve sentences and eighty-four characters.Xu Zhu has a very good memory, Child Elder only said it three times, and he remembered it all.These eighty-four characters are very difficult to pronounce, there are seven flat tones followed by seven flat tones, the rhyme is completely out of tune, it is similar to urgent passwords.Fortunately Xu Zhu is very familiar with such sutras and mantras as "Sittantha, Botanla", "Jiedi, Jiedi, Bola Sangha Jiedi", etc., so it's not surprising. Child Elder said: "Carry me on your back, run westward, and recite this set of formulas loudly." Xu Zhu followed the words, unexpectedly he could only read three characters, the fourth character "Fu" could not be pronounced He had to stop and take a breath before he pronounced the fourth word.Child Elder raised her palm, slapped him on the top of his head, scolded: "You little monk, you can't recite the first sentence well." Although this blow is not heavy, it just hit his "Baihui acupoint".Xu Zhu's body swayed, he felt dizzy and dizzy, when he recited the formula again, he suffocated again at the fourth word, Child Elder slapped it again. Xu Zhu was very surprised: "Why can't the character 'Fu' be spit out smoothly?" When he recited it for the third time, he naturally raised his true energy, and the word 'Fu' spit out from his mouth.Child Elder laughed and said: "Good guy, passed a test!" It turns out that the words and sentences of this song are completely opposite to the principle of sound, rhyme and breathing. The set of verses is actually a way to balance the true energy. At noon, Child Elder ordered Xu Zhu to put her down, with a flick of a finger, a stone flew into the sky, it brought down a crow, drank the crow's blood, and began to practice the "Eight Desolation and Six Harmonies Only I Respect Gong".At this time, her skill has returned to the level she had when she was seventeen years old. Although she is far inferior to Li Qiushui, she can easily kill a crow with a snap of her fingers. Child Elder has finished practicing, she ordered Xu Zhu to take up the responsibility, to ask him to recite the verses again, after reciting them smoothly, she also asked him to recite them backwards.This verse is extremely difficult to pronounce when it is read in reverse, and it is even more rebellious when it is read backwards, stumbling tongue and teeth, but Xu Zhu relied on a lot of perseverance, before it was dark, he actually read the formula of the first palm technique regardless of the order When I read it backwards, I have already recited it fluently, without any stagnation. Child Elder liked it very much, said: "Little Monk, it's thanks to you... Ahhhhhhhh!" Suddenly her tone changed drastically, she clenched her hands into fists, beat Xu Zhu's head violently, and cursed: "You have no heart Little thief, you...you must have done something ulterior with her, and I kept it from you. Little thief, do you still want to lie to me? You...how can you stand up to me? " Xu Zhu was shocked, he quickly put her down on the ground, and asked: "Senior, you... what did you say?" Child Elder's face turned purple, tears rolled down, she shouted: "You and Li Qiushui are so cheap The person has an affair, isn't it? You still want to deny it? You still refuse to admit it? Otherwise, how could she pass on the 'Little Wuxiang Gong' to you? Little thief, you... You have made it hard for me to hide it." Xu Zhu Confused, he asked, "What's 'Little Wuxiang Gong'?" Child Elder froze for a moment, then collected herself, wiped away her tears, sighed, and said: "It's nothing. Your master can't help me." It turned out that when Xu Zhu recited the scriptures, he passed many difficulties quickly, especially when he recited them backwards, the Child Elder suddenly remembered that it must be because he had practiced the "Small Formless Skill".Although she, Wu Yazi and Li Qiushui were passed down from the same teacher, they each have their own unique skills. The three of them learned quite differently. The master of "Little Wuxiang Gong" only passed on Li Qiushui, which is her self-defense. The magical power is extremely powerful. Li Qiushui relied on the "Small Formless Skill" to save his life when the child elder abused her several times.Although Child Elder doesn't know this kung fu, but she is very familiar with the situation when using this kung fu, at this moment, she finds that Xu Zhu not only has this kung fu, but also the kung fu is profound, in a fright and anger, she treats Xu Zhu as Wu Zhu Yazi, beat him up.When he was sober, thinking of Wu Yazi colluding with Li Qiushui behind his back, he was angry and hurt himself. That night, Child Elder could not stop scolding Wu Yazi and Li Qiushui severely.Xu Zhu listened to her scolding viciously, but his pain was actually more than resentment, thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel sorry for her, and persuaded: "Senior, life is impermanent, impermanence is suffering, all troubles are caused by greed, hatred and ignorance. Senior, as long as you stay away from these three poisons, don’t miss your junior brother or hate your junior sister, then you will have no troubles in your heart.” Child Elder said angrily, “I want to miss your heartless master, but I want to hate that bitch who is not afraid of ugliness. The more troubled I am, the happier I am." Xu Zhu shook his head, he didn't dare to persuade him any more. The next day Child Elder taught him the formula of the second palm technique.In this way, the two of them were on their way while practicing their skills.On the evening of the fifth day, I saw that there were many people in front of me, and I came to a big city.Child Elder said: "This is Lingzhou, the capital city of Western Xia, you still haven't read the formulas well, today we will stay in the west of Lingzhou, tomorrow we will go west for 200 li, and then come back by detour." Xu Zhu said "Shall we go to Lingzhou?" Child Elder said: "Of course we are going to Lingzhou, if we don't go to Lingzhou, how can we say we are going deep into a dangerous place?" After another day, Xu Zhu has memorized all six formulas of "Tianshan Zhemeishou" by heart.Child Elder taught him how to apply it in the wilderness.One of her legs was broken, she had to sit on the ground and fight with Xu Zhu.Although this "Tianshan Zhemei Shou" has only six ways, it contains the essence of Xiaoyao School's martial arts. In palm and grasping hands, it contains sword skills, knife skills, whip skills, spear skills, grasping skills, ax skills, etc. All kinds of unique moves of weapons are complex and complicated, Xu Zhu can't learn so many for a while.Child Elder said: "My 'Tianshan Zhemei Shou' can never be fully learned. In the future, the higher your internal strength is, the more knowledge you will have, and any martial art in the world can be automatically transformed into this 'Six-way Zhemei Shou'. Okay. After you have learned the formula, how much you learn later is entirely up to you." Xu Zhu said: "The juniors learn this kind of kung fu just to protect the seniors, after the seniors return the merits and return to the Yuan, the juniors return to the Shaolin Temple, they have to try to forget everything the seniors have taught them, and practice Shaolin Temple's own kung fu again. " Child Elder looked left and right at him, her expression was very surprised, she seemed to have seen an extremely strange monster, after a while, she sighed and said: "My Tianshan Zhemei Shou, is it the martial arts of any Shaolin sect? What can be compared? You are too stupid to give up jade and tiles. But it is not easy for you, a little monk, to forget your roots. You close your eyes and take a rest. After dark, we will go to Lingzhou City!"
At the second watch, Child Elder ordered Xu Zhu to carry her on his back, ran to the outside of Lingzhou City, jumped over the moat, climbed up the city wall, and slid down the ground.I saw groups of armored cavalry holding torches high and patrolling back and forth.This time when Xu Zhu left the temple and went down the mountain, he saw many Song soldiers on the way, compared with these brave and brave soldiers and horses of Xixia Kingdom, they are far inferior. Child Elder pointed out softly, and ordered him to stick to the high wall and walk towards the northwest corner. After walking for more than three miles, he saw a tall building soaring into the sky, and behind the tall buildings, there were many piles of tall buildings, all of which were grand houses with golden and green roofs, all glazed tiles .Xu Zhu saw that the roofs of these big houses were vaguely similar to Shaolin Temple, but they were more magnificent than Shaolin Temple, so he said in a low voice: "Amitabha, there is a big temple here." Child Elder couldn't help smiling lightly, and said: "Little monk I really don't know, this is the imperial palace of Xixia Kingdom, but it is said to be a big temple." Xu Zhu was startled, and said: "Is this the imperial palace? What are we doing here?" Child Elder said: "Take care of the emperor's protection. Li Qiushui couldn't find my body, knowing that I was not dead, even if he turned the land over, he still wanted to find my whereabouts. There is only one place within a radius of 2000 li She won't look for it, that's her own home." Xu Zhu said: "Senior is really smart, if we endure one more day, senior's skill will increase by one year. Then we will go to your junior sister's home Let it go." Child Elder said: "This is her home... Be careful, someone is coming." Xu Zhu shrunk and hid in the corner, he saw four figures coming from east to west, followed by another four figures coming from west, eight people crossed and patted their palms lightly, and went around.Look at the agile figure of these eight people, it is obvious that their martial arts are not weak.Child Elder said: "The imperial guards have inspected, quickly climbed into the palace wall, after a while, another inspector came." Xu Zhu saw this kind of momentum, he couldn't help being timid, he said: "There are so many masters in the palace, if you give them See you, that's terrible. Let's go to your junior sister's house." Child Elder said angrily: "I said earlier, this is her home." Xu Zhu said: "You said this is the imperial palace." Child Elder said: "Silly Monk, this bitch is the Imperial Concubine, the Imperial Palace is her home." This sentence was beyond Xu Zhu's expectation, he never dreamed that Li Qiushui would be from Xixia Kingdom The imperial concubine was stunned, and saw four figures looting from north to south.When those four people passed by, Xu Zhu said: "Qian..." He only said one word "Qian", Child Elder has already stretched out her hand to press his mouth, she was stunned, and saw four people coming out from behind the high wall , quietly patrolling over.These four people came out of nowhere, people never expected that there would be someone hiding in this dark corner.When these four people walked away, Child Elder patted him on the back and said: "Go in through that small alley." Xu Zhu saw the vigor of the sixteen people patrolling the palace just now, he knew that he had entered a dangerous place, if he didn't have the guidance of the child elder, he wanted to withdraw immediately, and he had to be discovered by these many imperial guards, he immediately took responsibility as promised Follow her into the alley.There are high walls on both sides of the small alley, which is actually a gap between the two palaces. Passing through this narrow passage, I crouched down among the peonies for a while, waiting for the eight imperial guards to pass by, and penetrated into a large rockery.This piece of rockery winds its way to the north, stretching for fifty or sixty feet.Every time Xu Zhu walks a few zhang, he stops and hides according to Child Elder's instructions, it's strange, every time after hiding, there will always be imperial guards passing by, it seems that Child Elder is the head of the imperial guards, there are people patrolling everywhere, what? Sometimes there are guards passing by, and she knows them all well, half of them are not bad.After walking around like this for half an hour, I saw that the houses in the front, back, left, and right were much smaller and simpler, and the imperial guards did not show up again. Child Elder pointed to a big stone house on the front left, said: "Go there." Xu Zhu saw that there is a big open space in front of that stone house, the moonlight is like water, shining on this open space, there is no shelter around, so he raised his hand immediately In one breath, he galloped forward.I saw that the walls of the stone house were all made of big stones four to five feet square, which were unusually thick, and the gate was a row of eight original pine trees cut in half and nailed together.Child Elder said: "Open the door and go in!" Xu Zhu's heart was beating wildly, he said in a trembling voice: "You...your junior sister lives...living here?" Thinking of Li Qiushui's harsh hands, he really dare not go in.童姥道：“不是。拉开了大门。” 虚竹握住门上大铁环，拉开大门，只觉这扇门着实沉重。大门之后紧接着又有一道门，一阵寒气从门内渗了出来。其时天时渐暖，高峰虽仍积雪，平地上早已冰融雪消，花开似锦绣，但这道内门的门上却结了一层薄薄白霜。童姥道：“向里推。”虚竹伸手一推，那门缓缓开了，只开得尺许一条缝，便有一股寒气迎面扑来。推门进去，只见里面堆满了一袋袋装米麦的麻袋，高与屋顶相接，显是一个粮仓，左侧留了个窄窄的通道。 他好生奇怪，低声问道：“这粮仓之中怎地如此寒冷？”童姥笑道：“把门关上。咱们进了冰库，看来是没事了！”虚竹奇道：“冰库？这不是粮仓么？”一面说，一面将两道门关上了。童姥心情甚好，笑道：“进去瞧瞧。” 两道门一关上，仓库中黑漆一团，伸手不见五指，虚竹摸索着从左侧进去，越到里面，寒气越盛，左手伸将出去，碰到了一片又冷又硬、湿漉漉之物，显然是一大块坚冰。正奇怪间，童姥已晃亮火折，霎时之间，虚竹眼前出现了一片奇景，只见前后左右，都是一大块、一大块割切得方方正正的大冰块，火光闪烁照射在冰块之上，忽青忽蓝，甚是奇幻。 童姥道：“咱们到底下去。”她扶着冰块，右腿一跳一跳，当先而行，在冰块间转了几转，从屋角的一个大洞中走了下去。虚竹跟随其后，只见洞下是一列石阶，走完石阶，下面又是一大屋子的冰块。童姥道：“这冰库多半还有一层。”果然第二层之下，又有一间大石室，也藏满了冰块。 童姥吹熄火折，坐了下来，道：“咱们深入地底第三层了，那贱人再鬼灵精，也未必能找得到童姥。”说着长长的吁了口气。几日来她脸上虽然显得十分镇定，心中却着实焦虑，西夏国高手如云，深入皇宫内院而要避过众高手的耳目，一半固须机警谨慎，一半却也全凭运气；直到此刻，方始略略放心。 虚竹叹道：“奇怪，奇怪！”童姥道：“奇怪什么？”虚竹道：“这西夏国的皇宫，居然将这许多不值分文的冰块窖藏了起来，那有什么用？”童姥笑道：“这冰块这时候不值分文，到了炎夏，那便珍贵得很了。你倒想想，盛暑之时，太阳犹似火蒸炭焙，人人汗出如浆，要是身边放上两块大冰，莲子绿豆汤或是薄荷百合汤中放上几粒冰珠，滋味如何？”虚竹这才恍然大悟，说道：“妙极，妙极！只不过将这许多大冰块搬了进来贮藏，花的功夫力气着实不小，那不是太也费事么？”童姥更是好笑，说道：“做皇帝的一呼百诺，要什么有什么，他还会怕什么费事？你道要皇帝老儿自己动手，将这些大冰块推进冰库来吗？” 虚竹点头道：“做皇帝也是享福得紧了。只不过此生享福太多，福报一尽，来生就未必好了。前辈，你从前来过这里么？怎么这些御前护卫什么时候到何处巡查，你一切全都清清楚楚？”童姥道：“这皇宫我自然来过的。我找这贱人的晦气，岂只来过一次？那些御前护卫呼吸粗重，十丈之外我便听见了，那有什么希奇。”虚竹道：“原来如此。前辈，你天生神耳，当真非常人可及。”童姥道：“什么天生神耳？那是练出来的功夫。” 虚竹听到“练出来的功夫”六字，猛地想起，冰库中并无飞禽走兽，难获热血，不知她如何练功？又想仓库中粮食倒极多，但冰库中无法举火，难道就以生米、生麦为食？ 童姥听他久不作声，问道：“你在想什么？”虚竹说了，童姥笑道：“你道那些麻袋中装的是粮食么？那都是棉花，免得外边热气进来，融了冰块。嘿嘿，你吃棉花不吃？”虚竹道：“如此说来，我们须得到外面去寻食了？”童姥道：“御厨中活鸡活鸭，那还少了？不过鸡鸭猪羊之血没什么灵气，不及雪峰上的梅花鹿和羚羊。咱们这就到御花园去捉些仙鹤、孔雀、鸳鸯、鹦鹉之类来，我喝血，你吃肉，那就对付了。” 虚竹忙道：“不成，不成。小僧如何能杀生吃荤？”心想童姥已到了安全之所，不必再由自己陪伴，说道：“小僧是佛门子弟，不能见你残杀众生，我……我这就要告辞了。”童姥道：“你到哪里去？”虚竹道：“小僧回少林寺去。”童姥大怒，道：“你不能走，须得在这里陪我，等我练成神功，取了那贱人性命，这才放你。” 虚竹听她说练成神功之后要杀李秋水，更加不愿陪着她造恶业，站起身来，说道：“前辈，小僧便要劝你，你也一定是不肯听的。何况小僧知识浅薄，笨嘴笨舌，也想不出什么话来相劝，我看冤家宜解不宜结，得放手时且放手罢。”一面说，一面走向石阶。 童姥喝道：“给我站住，我不许你走。” 虚竹道：“小僧要去了！”他本想说“但愿你神功练成”，但随及想到她神功一成，不但李秋水性命危险，而乌老大这些三十六洞洞主、七十二岛岛主，以及慕容复、段誉等等，只怕要个个死于非命，越想越怕，伸足跨上了石阶。 突然间双膝一麻，翻身跌倒，跟着腰眼里又是一酸，全身动弹不得，知道是给童姥点了穴道。黑暗中她身子不动，凌空虚点，便封住了自己要穴，看来在这高手之前，自己只有听由摆布，全无反抗的余地。他心中一静，便念起经来：“修道苦至，当念往劫，舍本逐末，多起爱憎。今虽无犯，是我宿作，甘心受之，都无怨诉。经云：逢苦不忧，识达故也……” 童姥插口道：“你念的是什么鬼经？”虚竹道：“善哉，善哉！这是菩提达摩的《入道四行经》。”童姥道：“达摩是你少林寺的老祖宗，我只道他真有通天彻地之能，哪知道婆婆妈妈，是个没骨气的臭和尚。”虚竹道：“阿弥陀佛，阿弥陀佛，前辈不可妄言。” 童姥道：“你这鬼经中言道，修道时逢到困苦，那是由于往昔宿作，要甘心受之，都无怨诉。那么无论旁人如何厉害的折磨你，你都甘心受之、都无怨诉么？”虚竹道：“小僧修为浅薄，于外魔侵袭、内魔萌生之际，只怕难以抗御。”童姥道：“现下你本门少林派的功夫是一点也没有了，逍遥派的功夫又只学得一点儿，有失无得，糟糕之极。你听我的话，我将逍遥派的神功尽数传你，那时你无敌于天下，岂不光彩？” 虚竹双手合十，又念经道：“众生无我，苦乐随缘。纵得荣誉等事，宿因所构，今方得之。缘尽还无，何喜之有？得失随缘，心无增减。” 童姥喝道：“呸呸，胡说八道。你武功低微，处处受人欺侮，好比现下你给我封住了穴道，我要打你骂你，你都反抗不得。又如我神功未成，只好躲在这里，让李秋水那贱人在外面强凶霸道。你师父给你这幅图画，还不是叫你求人传授武功，收拾丁春秋这小鬼？这世界上强的欺侮人，弱的受人欺侮，你想平安快乐，便非做天下第一强者不可。” 虚竹念经道：“世人长迷，处处贪着，名之为求。禅师悟真，理与俗反，安心无为，形随运转。三界皆苦，谁而得安？经曰：有求皆苦，无求乃乐。” 虚竹虽无才辩，这经文却是念得极熟。这篇《入道四行经》是昙琳所笔录，那昙琳是达摩自南天竺来华后所收弟子，经中记的是达摩祖师的微言法语，也只寥寥数百字，是少林寺众僧所必读。他随口而诵，却将童姥的话都一一驳倒了。 童姥生性最是要强好胜，数十年来言出法随，座下侍女仆妇固然无人敢顶她一句嘴，而三十六洞、七十二岛这些桀傲不驯的奇人异士，也是个个将她奉作天神一般，今日却给这小和尚驳得哑口无言。她大怒之下，举起右掌，便向虚竹顶门拍了下去。手掌将要碰到他脑门的“百会穴”上，突然想起：“我将这小和尚一掌击毙，他无知无觉，仍然道是他这片歪理对而我错了，哼哼，世上哪有这等便宜事？”当即收回手掌，自行调息运功。 过得片刻，她跳上石阶，推门而出，折了一根树枝支撑，径往御花园中奔去。这时她功力已十分了得，虽断了一腿，仍然身轻如叶，一众御前护卫如何能够知觉？在园中捉了两头白鹤，两头孔雀，回入冰库。虚竹听得她出去，又听到她回来，再听到禽鸟的鸣叫之声，念了几声“阿弥陀佛”，既无法可施，也只有任之自然。 次日午时将届，冰库中无昼无夜，一团漆黑。童姥体内真气翻涌，知道练功之时将届，便咬开一头白鹤的咽喉，吮吸其血。她练完功后，又将一头白鹤的喉管咬开。 虚竹听到声音，劝道：“前辈，这头鸟儿，你留到明天再用罢，何必多杀一条性命？”童姥笑道：“我是好心，弄给你吃的。”虚竹大惊，道：“不，不！小僧万万不吃。”童姥左手伸出，拿住了他下颏，虚竹无法抗御，嘴巴自然而然的张了开来。童姥倒提白鹤，将鹤血都灌入了他口中。虚竹只觉一股炙热的血液顺喉而下，拚命想闭住喉咙，但穴道为童姥所制，实是不由自主，心中又气又急，两行热泪夺眶而出。 童姥灌罢鹤血，右手抵在他背心的灵台穴上，助他真气运转，随即又点了他“关元”、“天突”两穴，令他无法呕出鹤血，嘻嘻笑道：“小和尚，你佛家戒律，不食荤腥，这戒是破了罢？一戒既破，再破二戒又有何妨？哼，世上有谁跟我作对，我便跟他作对到底。总而言之，我要叫你做不成和尚。”虚竹甚是气苦，说不出话来。 童姥笑道：“经云：有求皆苦，无求乃乐。你一心要遵守佛戒，那便是'求'了，求而不得，心中便苦。须得安心无为，形随运转，佛戒能遵便遵，不能遵便不遵，那才叫做'无求'，哈哈，哈哈，哈哈！” 如此过了两个多月，童姥已回复到八十几岁时的功力，出入冰库和御花园时直如无形鬼魅，若不是忌惮李秋水，早就已离开皇宫他去了。她每日喝血练功之后，总是点了虚竹的穴道，将禽兽的鲜血生肉塞入他腹中，待过得两个时辰，虚竹肚中食物消化净尽，无法呕出，这才解开他穴道。虚竹在冰库中被迫茹毛饮血，过着暗无天日的日子，实是苦恼不堪，只有诵念经文中“逢苦不忧，识达故也”的句子，强自慰解。 这一日童姥又听他在唠唠叨叨的念什么“修道苦至，当念往劫”，什么“甘心受之，都无怨诉”，冷笑道：“你是兔鹿鹤雀，什么荤腥都尝过了，还成什么和尚？还念什么经？”虚竹道：“小僧为前辈所逼迫，非出自愿，就不算破戒。”童姥冷笑道：“倘若无人逼迫，你自己是决计不破戒的？”虚竹道：“小僧洁身自爱，决不敢坏了佛门的规矩。”童姥道：“好，咱们便试一试。”这日便不逼迫虚竹喝血吃肉。虚竹甚喜，连声道谢。 次日童姥仍不强他吃肉饮血。虚竹只饿得肚中咕咕直响，说道：“前辈，你神功即将练成，已不须小僧伺候了。小僧便欲告辞。”童姥道：“我不许你走。”虚竹道：“小僧肚饿得紧，那么相烦前辈找些青菜白饭充饥。”童姥道：“那倒可以。”便即点了他的穴道，使他无法逃走，自行出去。过不多时，回到冰库中来。 虚竹只闻到一阵香气扑鼻，登时满嘴都是馋涎。托托托三声，童姥将三只大碗放在他的面前，道：“一碗红烧肉，一碗清蒸肥鸡，一碗糖醋鲤鱼，快来吃罢！”虚竹惊道：“阿弥陀佛，小僧宁死不吃。”三大碗肥鸡鱼肉的香气不住冲到他鼻中，他强自忍住，自管念经。童姥挟起碗中鸡肉，吃得津津有味，连声赞美，虚竹却只念佛。 第三日童姥又去御厨中取了几碗荤菜来，火腿、海参、熊掌、烤鸭，香气更是浓郁。虚竹虽然饿得虚弱无力，却始终忍住不吃。童姥心想：“在我跟前，你要强好胜，是决计不肯取食的。”于是走出冰库之外，半日不归，心想：“只怕你非偷食不可。”哪知回来后将这几碗菜肴拿到光亮下一看，竟然连一滴汤水也没动过。 到得第九日时，虚竹念经的力气也没了，只咬些冰块解渴，却从不伸手去碰放在面前的荤腥。童姥大怒，伸手抓住他的胸口，将一碗红烧肘子一块块的塞入他口中。她虽然强着虚竹吃荤，却知这场比拚终于是自己输了，狂怒之下，劈劈拍拍的连打了他三四十个耳光，喝骂：“死和尚，你和姥姥作对，要知道姥姥的厉害！”虚竹不嗔不怒，只轻轻念佛。 此后数日之中，童姥总是大鱼大肉去灌他。虚竹逆来顺受，除了念经，便是睡觉。
这一日睡梦之中，虚竹忽然闻到一阵甜甜的幽香，这香气既非佛像前烧的檀香，也不是鱼肉的菜香，只觉得全身通泰，说不出的舒服，迷迷糊糊之中，又觉得有一样软软的物事靠在自己胸前，他一惊而醒，伸手去一摸，着手处柔腻温暖，竟是一个不穿衣服之人的身体。他大吃一惊，道：“前辈，你……你怎么了？” 那人道：“我……我在什么地方啊？怎地这般冷？”喉音娇嫩，是个少女声音，绝非童姥。虚竹更加惊得呆了，颤声问道：“你……你……是谁？”那少女道：“我……我……好冷，你又是谁？”说着便往虚竹身上靠去。 虚竹待要站起身来相避，一撑持间，左手扶住了那少女的肩头，右手却揽在她柔软纤细的腰间。虚竹今年二十四岁，生平只和阿紫、童姥、李秋水三个女人说过话，这二十四年之中，只在少林寺中念经参禅。但好色而慕少艾，乃是人之天性，虚竹虽然谨守戒律，每逢春暖花开之日，亦不免心头荡漾，幻想男女之事。只是他不知女人究竟如何，所有想像，当然怪诞离奇，莫衷一是，更是从来不敢与师兄弟提及。此刻双手碰到了那少女柔腻娇嫩的肌肤，一颗心简直要从口腔中跳了出来，却是再难释手。 那少女嘤咛一声，转过身来，伸手勾住了他头颈。虚竹但觉那少女吹气如兰，口脂香阵阵袭来，不由得天旋地转，全身发抖，颤声道：“你……你……你……”那少女道：“我好冷，可是心里又好热。”虚竹难以自己，双手微一用力，将她抱在怀里。那少女“唔，唔”两声，凑过嘴来，两人吻在一起。 虚竹所习的少林派禅功已尽数为无崖子化去，定力全失，他是个未经人事的壮男，当此天地间第一大诱惑袭来之时，竟丝毫不加抗御，将那少女愈抱愈紧，片刻间神游物外，竟不知身在何处。那少女更是热情如火，将虚竹当作了爱侣。 也不知过了多少时候，虚竹欲火渐熄，大叫一声：“啊哟！”要待跳起身来。 但那少女仍紧紧搂抱着他，腻声道：“别……别离开我。”虚竹神智清明，也只一瞬间事，随即又将那少女抱在怀中，轻怜密爱，竟无厌足。 两人缠在一起，又过了大半个时辰，那少女道：“好哥哥，你是谁？”这六个字娇柔婉转，但在虚竹听来，宛似半空中打了个霹雳，颤声道：“我……我大大的错了。”那少女道：“你为什么大大的错了？” 虚竹结结巴巴的无法回答，只道：“我……我是……”突然间胁下一麻，被人点中了穴道，跟着一块毛毡盖上来，那赤裸的少女离开了他的怀抱。虚竹叫道：“你……你别走，别走！”黑暗中一人嘿嘿嘿的冷笑三声，正是童姥的声音。虚竹一惊之下，险些晕去，瘫软在地，脑海中只是一片空白。耳听得童姥抱了那少女，走出冰库。 过不多时，童姥便即回来，笑道：“小和尚，我让你享尽了人间艳福，你如何谢我？”虚竹道：“我……我……”心中兀自浑浑沌沌，说不出话来。童姥解开他穴道，笑道：“佛门子弟要不要守淫戒？这是你自己犯呢？还是被姥姥逼迫？你这口是心非、风流好色的小和尚，你倒说说，是姥姥赢了，还是你赢了？哈哈，哈哈，哈哈！”越笑越响，得意之极。 虚竹心下恍然，知道童姥为了恼他宁死不肯食荤，却去掳了一个少女来，诱得他破了淫戒，不由得又是悔恨，又是羞耻，突然间纵起身来，脑袋疾往坚冰上撞去，砰的一声大响，掉在地下。 童姥大吃一惊，没料到这小和尚性子如此刚烈，才从温柔乡中回来，便图自尽，忙伸手将他拉起，一摸之下，幸好尚有鼻息，但头顶已撞破一洞，汩汩流血，忙替他裹好了伤，喂以一枚“九转熊蛇丸”，骂道：“你发疯了？若不是你体内已有北冥真气，这一撞已然送了你的小命。”虚竹垂泪道：“小僧罪孽深重，害人害己，再也不能做人了。”童姥道：“嘿嘿，要是每个和尚犯了戒便图自尽，天下还有几个活着的和尚？” 虚竹一怔，想起自戕性命，乃是佛门大戒，自己愤激之下，竟又犯了一戒。 他倚在冰块之上，浑没了主意，心中自怨自责，却又不自禁的想起那少女来，适才种种温柔旖旎之事，绵绵不绝的涌上心头，突然问道：“那……那位姑娘，她是谁？” 童姥哈哈一笑，道：“这位姑娘今年一十七岁，端丽秀雅，无双无对。” 适才黑暗之中，虚竹看不到那少女的半分容貌，但肌肤相接，柔音入耳，想像起来也必是个十分容色的美女，听童姥说她“端丽秀雅，无双无对”，不由得长长叹了口气。童姥微笑道：“你想她不想？”虚竹不敢说谎，却又不便直承其事，只得又叹了一口气。 此后的几个时辰，他全在迷迷糊糊中过去。童姥再拿鸡鸭鱼肉之类荤食放在他面前，虚竹起了自暴自弃之心，寻思：“我已成佛门罪人，既拜入了别派门下，又犯了杀戒、淫戒，还成什么佛门弟子？”拿起鸡肉便吃，只是食而不知其味，怔怔的又流下泪来。童姥笑道：“率性而行，是谓真人，这才是个好小子呢。” 再过两个时辰，童姥竟又去将那裸体少女用毛毡裹了来，送入他的怀中，自行走上第二层冰窖，让他二人留在第三层冰窖中。 那少女悠悠叹了口气，道：“我又做这怪梦了，真叫我又是害怕，又是……又是……”虚竹道：“又是怎样？”那少女抱着他的头颈，柔声道：“又是欢喜。”说着将右颊贴在他左颊之上。虚竹只觉她脸上热烘烘地，不觉动情，伸手抱了她纤腰。那少女道：“好哥哥，我到底是不是在做梦？要说是梦，为什么我清清楚楚知道你抱着我？我摸得到你的脸，摸得到你的胸膛，摸得到你的手臂。”她一面说，一面轻轻抚摸虚竹的面颊、胸膛，又道：“要说不是做梦，我怎么好端端的睡在床上，突然间会……会身上没了衣裳，到了这又冷又黑的地方？这里寒冷黑暗，却又有一个你，有一个你在等着我、怜我、惜我？” 虚竹心想：“原来你被童姥掳来，也是迷迷糊糊的，神智不清。”只听那少女又柔声道：“平日我一听到陌生男人的声音也要害羞，怎么一到了这地方，我便……我便心神荡漾，不由自主？唉，说是梦，又不像梦，说不像梦，又像是梦。昨晚上做了这个奇梦，今儿晚上又做，难道……难道，我真的和你是前世因缘么？好哥哥，你到底是谁？”虚竹失魂落魄的道：“我……我是……”要说“我是和尚”，这句话总是说不出口。 那少女突然伸出手来，按住了他嘴，低声道：“你别跟我说，我……我心里害怕。”虚竹抱着她身子的双臂紧了一紧，问道：“你怕什么？”那少女道：“我怕你一出口，我这场梦便醒了。你是我的梦中情郎，我叫你'梦郎'，梦郎，梦郎，你说这名字好不好？”她本来按在虚竹嘴上的手掌移了开去，抚摸他
