Chapter 24 Chapter 24: The Cry Under the Tree

At the moment when Leng Hanzhu's voice had stopped, a soft and clear voice suddenly came from the forest in the distance, and said with a smile, "So what if you don't go?" The words "quick news" Huayu "don't go" came to my ears, and in the night, a figure floated over, it seemed that the coming was not in a hurry, but when the three words "so what" were finished, the figure had already passed away When you get close, it's like coming slowly on the clouds, without a trace of fireworks. He has traveled around the rivers and lakes for a long time, although his own martial arts are not very high, but all he has come into contact with are famous figures in the martial arts world, but he has never seen a person with such sublime lightness kung fu in his life. Already heard "Dead Wood and Cold Bamboo" blurt out in surprise: "Golden boy and jade girl!"

Huayu, who was already so nervous that she could hardly breathe, suddenly heard the name that shocked the martial arts, and couldn't help being shocked again. Looking closely, she saw that the legendary martial arts strange man was actually a very tall man. The girl is dressed in a light long gown, but it can't hide her stout figure. The strangest thing is that she is carrying a yellow rattan basket behind her. In the rattan basket, there is a child-like figure covered in golden clothes leaning on the rattan basket. The man looked from a distance in the night, although he couldn't see clearly, he could still vaguely see that this man was like a child, not only was he well-dressed, but he also had a beard under his chin.

Anyone who saw the face of this "golden boy and jade girl" for the first time would not believe their eyes, and "Express" Hua Yuzi was the same, he never imagined that these two famous martial artists would look like this Looking around, he turned his eyes and saw that "Dead Wood and Cold Bamboo" were standing side by side at this moment, and their four eyes were looking at "Golden Boy and Jade Girl" for a moment. Their robes fluttered slightly, like a pair of clay and wood statues. Hua Yutong swallowed a mouthful of saliva again, as if he wanted to swallow his heart that was about to jump out of his mouth back into his stomach together, the moonlight sank to the west, so the place he was in was even darker, but in this star-studded sky , On a night as cold as water, he would rather be in any other place in the world than here.Only to hear that "Jade Girl" smiled lightly again, stretched out her hand and pointed to "Mr. Pei Da" beside her, and said with a smile:

"He doesn't want to go with you, why do you force him, not to mention—do you know that he has a date with us, and it's not your turn!" "Withered wood and cold bamboo" turned his eyes, and glanced at Pei Jue from the face of "golden boy and jade girl". Although their faces were still expressionless, they were also strange in their hearts: "How could this kid surnamed Pei have anything to do with the 'Golden Boy and Jade Girl'?" My mind changed, but I heard a loud laugh, and then a flash of light flashed in front of my eyes, and the "Golden Boy" had already been snatched out of the basket. Yu Xinfang smiled to himself, this "Golden Boy" is so short that he looks like a dwarf, but he saw "Dead Wood and Cold Bamboo" stretch out his hands quickly without making a sound, and struck down on the "Golden Boy" on the head like lightning.

"Withered Wood Hanzhu" is extremely tall, while "Golden Boy" is extremely short. When "Withered Wood Hanzhu" slashed with four palms, under the moonlight, only a huge black shadow could be seen, hitting him on the head like a Mount Tai. "Express" Huayu saw that the whole body of the "golden boy" seemed to be under the cover of these four palms, it seemed that there was no way to avoid it, no way to dodge it. I saw "Mr. Pei Da" exclaiming in surprise, but the "Jade Girl" was still smiling, standing by and watching, as if she didn't see the sudden move of "Dead Wood and Cold Bamboo".

Unexpectedly, at the moment when these four palms were about to hit the "Golden Boy", the "Golden Boy" suddenly smiled slightly, without making any gestures with his arms, suddenly turned his palms up together, and moved towards "Dead Wood and Cold Bamboo". Putting the four palms up and down, Huayu saw that the four palms of "Dead Wood and Cold Bamboo" were as heavy as mountains, while the two palms of "Golden Boy" were light and light, like a trace of strength. Nothing at all, and Fang secretly screamed "It's terrible" for the "Golden Boy" in his heart, but he suddenly heard a series of four applause of "Bo, Bo, Bo, Bo". Standing still, "Dead Wood and Cold Bamboo" has already taken a step back.

He was very surprised, and thought to himself: "This 'Golden Boy' has such a great reputation, could it be that he has some kind of evil method?" But he didn't know that the "Golden Boy"'s palm support just now, although it looks light and weak, is actually an extremely heavy hand in the inner family, it's just that his martial arts practice is feminine, and from outsiders' eyes, he doesn't see power. In fact, every movement of hands and feet contains extremely vigorous internal force. Just now when he clasped his palms, he struck Lenghanzhu's right palm and Lengkumu's left palm, then turned his palms, and struck Lenghanzhu's left palm, Lengkumu's right palm again, palms together, "wave" With four soft sounds, "Dead Wood and Cold Bamboo" felt his palms warm up, his whole body trembled, and he took a step back involuntarily. Pei Jue also had some compassion for this underdeveloped, dwarf-like martial artist, seeing him wave his hand at this moment In a short time, he had repelled the powerful enemy, and he couldn't help turning the pity in his heart into admiration.

Hearing the "Golden Boy" laugh loudly again, amidst the loud laughter, his body suddenly rose up, and in a flash, he had fluttered out several palms, before the palms arrived, "Withered Wood Hanzhu" already felt an eerie chill The cold wind is coming, the heart is slightly trembling, the corners of the eyes are squinting, the eyes of the two meet, the hearts are connected, the figure is short, the cold bamboo palm is from right to left, the left palm is from bottom to top, and the left palm of Lengkumu is from left to right. And the right, the right palm was struck straight, "bang", another four palms, the two of them are tall and the arms are long, these four arms seem to hold the "golden boy" in the center again, he is already in the air, and he is looking at it again Unable to dodge, but he turned his wrist, and there were four soft "bo" sounds. In this instant, he actually received the four palms of the "dead wood and cold bamboo" in the air. With a short body, he turned over in the air, He actually swept behind "Dead Wood Han Zhu", on his head and feet, with both palms slanted, pointing like swords, he quickly pointed towards the left and right "Jianjing" acupoints of "Dead Wood Han Bamboo".

His figure is erratic, like a ghost, and the movement of his palms is even more shocking. "Withered Wood Hanzhu" took a deep breath, shook his shoulders, twisted his waist, and made a wrong step. Lengkumu's right palm and Leng Hanzhu's left palm drew a half circle in unison, but with the other palm, they suddenly pierced through. This move "Shooting the moon in the circle", although it seems ordinary, but it has both offense and defense, the defense is impenetrable, and the offensive breaks mountains and rocks. Unexpectedly, the "Golden Boy" fell into the air with both palms, turned his body in the air again, head up and down, but kicked the right palm of Lengkumu with the toes of his feet, the left palm of Lenghanzhu, the "Houxi" point on the outside of the palm edge, the point of darkness. In the process, he used his feet to identify the acupoints, unexpectedly it was so accurate, "Dead Wood Hanzhu" couldn't help but shudder again, he bent his palm, and struck out again like lightning, cutting across the inner edge of "Golden Boy"'s ankle.

You must know that "Dead Wood and Cold Bamboo" has been famous in the martial arts world for many years, and their martial arts are really outstanding. Even if the "Golden Boy" is wearing iron shoes and steel boots, if they are swept by their palms, his bones will be broken immediately, and at this moment he His figure has been in the air for a long time, his body calmed down, if he drifted backwards, his feet would naturally escape the danger of the palm, but his chest would be completely empty, the left palm of dead wood and the right palm of cold bamboo, although they have already been struck , but the strength of his whole body was distributed half to the other palm, and he just waited for the opening of his chest to be exposed, and immediately struck out.

Unexpectedly, the "Golden Boy" has legs like the arms of an adult. With a sudden kick backwards, he suddenly turned over again in the air, and his head and feet went up again, and the tip of his palm swung out like lightning. The body at the end of the crossbow can still change its position in the air. If you want to withdraw your palm, there is no time. The palms of the two feel numb. Immediately, the whole body became weak, "Golden Boy" let out a long laugh, his legs fell down suddenly, and the toes of his toes lightly tapped on the "Ruanma" point on their waists like lightning. "Quick News" Huayu saw the body of the "golden boy" flying in the air, as if he was flanked by wings, turning freely, clapping his hands and kicking his legs, he didn't know what kind of martial arts it was? He was terrified in his heart, but he saw the "golden boy" let out a long laugh, and in the long laugh, the body of "withered wood and cold bamboo" fell limply to the ground. Then I heard "Jade Girl" smile lightly, stretch out her jade palm, pat twice, clapping her hands with a tone of admiration and admiration, said with a smile: "I haven't seen my elder brother do it for ten years, but today, haha ​​- the prestige is still undiminished." Turning to Pei Jue: "Look, my elder brother's two hands are the best in the world?" She is tall, thick and strong, but when she speaks, she looks like a naive and charming girl with a bun. "Express" Huayu only feels funny in her heart, but she can't laugh. Landing on the "dead wood and cold bamboo" on the ground, he looked at the two corpses on one side, smiled coldly, and said to "Jade Girl": "Please take these two pieces of wood with you. It seems that they will be wronged for a few days, lest they talk too much." "News" Hua Yu shuddered! "Let them talk too much." He thought to himself: "If they know that others have seen it, wouldn't it be—" He sighed secretly, not daring to think about it any further. Holding his body under his side, he smiled at "Mr. Pei Da" and said: "Come with me, I have something good for you." Go ahead. "Quick News" Huayu saw their figures gradually disappearing into the night, Fang Zi let out a long breath, but he didn't know that the ground on his head seemed to be flicked lightly by someone, he turned over and jumped up in shock , ran desperately, ran out tens of feet, looked back secretly, there was nothing behind him, not even a ghost shadow, stretched out his hand to touch, there was still half a tree branch hanging on his head, he took another long breath, but his body was already out. In a cold sweat. tonight—— Although it has been a long day, when he recalled what happened last night, he still couldn't help being terrified, but he couldn't help being amused by his "everything is a soldier" panic. Living in fear, sometimes he had to pay a very high price to pry into other people's privacy and secrets, so although what happened last night frightened him, he still took risks tonight to come to the place where he was lurking last night. now-- He stood under the tree last night again, the moon was still hanging high at the place last night, so under this tree, it was still so dark and secret, just like the darkest place on the earth, he sighed in relief. He took a breath, and looked around cautiously. The trunk was thick, with tangled branches and leaves, like the cover of a mushroom, densely covering the trunk, with overgrown grass on the ground, and a huge tree growing from the ground. Root, he nodded with reassurance again, thinking: "It's really a safe place." So, he crouched down in this place that was enough for him to feel at ease, but his eyes turned around, looking for any target worthy of his detection. The wind blows the trees, and the stars twinkle. It's still the same as last night, beautiful and quiet, and most of the spring nights are like this. A long time, a long time... He turned his body restlessly on the ground! "Why didn't anything happen?" He waited patiently, but the surroundings were still so quiet, he began to be impatient: "Maybe nothing happened tonight! Why should I wait here?" But he comforted himself: " Wait a little longer, until the moon hangs on the treetops on the other side, and I will go." The Jade Rabbit sank to the west and gradually reached the tip of a willow on the other side of the stream. He looked up, sighed in disappointment, and began to feel that he was such an idiot, wasting such a wonderful spring night in this useless waiting. "Ah! I should know that nothing will happen tonight. Could it be that others just want to show me, so they have to move everything that happened here—humph! I'm such an idiot, Jingkou Isn't Xiao Cuixuan's bed much more comfortable than here?" He secretly blamed himself and was about to get up from the ground. I don't know-- Wherever his eyes moved, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure walking from a distance, and when he fixed his eyes, it was "Mr. Pei Da". Yuxin was startled at first, but seeing him walking slowly, there was only one person, and she didn't feel certain in her heart. She held her breath and watched for a long time, only to see him getting closer and closer, but her hands and feet were still dancing. Looking at it, it was still random, but after looking for a long time, I saw that his left palm always drew a circle from left to right, and then suddenly retracted, his right palm always drew a circle from inside to outside, and then pounded with the center. He stepped out, twisted his waist to the right, bumped his left elbow, and kicked out his right leg suddenly. "Express news" Huayu stared blankly for a while, only to see him waving his hands and feet, but there was only one move forever, the more Huayu watched, the more amusing he became, and she thought to herself: "Is this some kind of boxing move that can't be done? What a pity he didn't know where he learned it from? If such a move can hurt someone, hehe——unless that person is an idiot." Seeing that "Mr. Pei Da" was still waving his hands and feet in a dazed manner, and had walked up to him, his heart suddenly moved: "If I capture him and send him to the 'Dragon Shaped Eight Palms', wouldn't it make him more happy than any other news, at least—at least a few thousand taels of silver, haha—this guy is stupid, and I don’t know martial arts, and I’m still pretty handy.” Thinking of this, he couldn't help being very happy, but he was cautious by nature, looked around a few more times, and confirmed that "Mr. Pei Da" was indeed alone. So he suddenly shouted softly: "Stop!" Pei Jue was indulging himself in a novel state, when he suddenly heard the scolding sound, he was startled, stopped in his tracks, and saw a figure darting out of the dark place in the forest by the roadside, running He ran over with a jump, and shouted in his mouth: "Your Excellency is Mr. Pei Da?" Pei Jue couldn't help being shocked again, he only knew that this person was under the "God Hand" Zhan Fei, but when he took a closer look, he saw that this person was tall and tall, with gorgeous clothes, and his lightness skills were not high, but it was him who had never He hesitated for a while, before he finally answered loudly: "That's right, I'm Pei Jue, what advice do you have?" "News" Hua Yu secretly laughed, thinking: "So his name is Pei Jue." Turning his eyes, he said: "Chen Ziping, I have admired Mr. Pei Da's fame for a long time. I only regret not having the chance to know Jingjing, but I didn't expect to see it here today. Haha——I am really lucky." He had far-sighted plans, although he wanted to use "Mr. Pei Da" to exchange money from "Dragon Shaped Eight Palms", but he didn't want to offend "God Hand" Zhan Fei, so he made up a random name, even if "Mr. Pei Da" could be Immortal, but also won't know who he is?The "magic hand" Zhan Fei naturally didn't know who did it. Pei Jue couldn't help being startled when he heard the words: "What kind of name do I have?" Although he was puzzled in his heart, seeing that "Chen Ziping" had a handsome face and good speech, he didn't feel any ill feeling in his heart, so he casually said: "Your Excellency is serious." "Express" Huayu walked towards Pei Jue slowly, looked around, saw that the night was dark and there was no one else, he was secretly happy in his heart, but said with a smile: "Tomorrow morning will be the day when you will become famous all over the world. You will still have a night out with candles in basic necessities tonight, ha! Your Excellency is really an elegant person... Really an elegant person." The voice eased, and he punched him straight in the face. Hit Pei Jue in the middle of the bridge of the nose. Although his martial arts is not high, he has also practiced the style for three to five years. This punch was the most widely spread Shaolin outsider "Dahong Fist" at that time. Hu", if an ordinary person is hit on the bridge of the nose by this punch, they will immediately become dizzy and have no strength to resist.That's why this punch is called "seal the door". Seeing him talking to him with a smile, Pei Jue was still wondering in his heart, he had never met this person before, why did he compliment him so much, but unexpectedly he punched him suddenly, Pei Jue was startled, thinking Palm hair, the left palm turned upward suddenly, and circled to the left—— For the past two nights, he has been practicing these hands and palms all the time, and at this moment, the place where his mind is moving, he has performed it logically, but he still can't help but have some doubts in his heart. Can't withstand this violent punch from others? "Quick news" Hua Yu punched out, knowing in her heart that just this punch was enough to knock down the opponent, who seemed to be a weak young man. Unexpectedly, with a slight circle of the opponent's palm, he had already stuck his best punch to the outer door. He was shocked, and immediately followed the momentum with his left fist. Unexpectedly, Pei Jue swiped his right palm from the inside to the outside. Half a circle, Zhengzi supported his fist, and the position of the support was so ingenious that it happened to support his veins. Huayu was shocked, and couldn't help cursing herself for being confused, knowing that he had such a move, but why did she still want to send her fist up, and suddenly thought that the opponent's next move was a punch from the center—— This thought flashed through his mind, he was terrified, and immediately raised his hands to parry, but he didn't know that one of his palms was sealed by someone outside the door, and the other was held in his palm, knowing that the other party's punch was about to hit his chest When the blow came, not only could he not parry, it was too late for him to even retreat. In an instant, he only felt a bang in his ears, a tremor in his chest, a sweetness in his throat, a blur in his eyes, a loud cry, his body rose from the ground in a trance, and then fell to the ground with a "bang". Pei Jue supported his pulse gate with his right palm, and then the palm gesture naturally circled from outside to inside, but it happened to support his left fist. When Pei Jue punched out, he saw the opponent staring at him helplessly. , as if in a daze, and then with a "bang", the tall body of the other party flew up from the ground and landed on the ground far away. He was stunned, he couldn't even imagine how his move was so powerful, he had already knocked someone down even though he was halfway through the move, he turned his gaze away, and saw that "Chen Ziping" fell to the ground, he didn't even move. He stopped moving, startled, and thought to himself: "Could it be that this person was knocked unconscious by my punch?" He strode over and leaned over to take a look. Under the moonlight, he saw "Chen Ziping" with protruding eyes, bleeding from the corners of his mouth, and a ferocious face, like a ghost. Breathe out, ah!This "Chen Ziping" is dead. He stood up blankly, but felt dizzy in his mind and couldn't think of anything, only thought: "I killed someone! I actually killed someone!" Looking down, the dead body was lying helpless, with slender limbs ugly on both sides, and in the scattered skirts, there was a letter of silver that had been opened. , shining dazzlingly in the moonlight. "A moment ago, he was chatting and laughing, speaking freely, and his body was full of vitality, but——he is dead at this moment, and this wonderful life is actually destroyed in my hands." Pei Jue said sadly Sighing, he slowly raised his palm: "Martial arts, martial arts is such a terrible thing!" The night was getting darker, and he stood alone in the deep night, looking at the corpse in front of him, his heart was heavy and sad, as heavy as the chill of the night. Until the first ray of dawn in the east quietly shone on his back, he still stood here sadly, maybe he was still too young, he didn't know that the struggle in the rivers and lakes was always so cruel, and he didn't know Knowing that the corpse lying in front of him at this moment, originally regarded him as a commodity that could be exchanged for silver. If he didn't destroy other people's lives, then others would destroy him, and he would not feel any sadness or guilt at all. If he knew this and could deeply appreciate the deep meaning, then he might feel better at the moment, but in any case, he is still happy at the moment, because he is still young, and young people will always only yearn for beauty , Don't people who don't experience ugliness, who have never experienced ugliness and cruelty, always be very happy?
