Chapter 14 Fourteenth Bitter Rain and Desolate Wind
Nangong Ping's figure came together, Boss Shi suddenly screamed, twisted his waist and turned around, raised his right palm sharply, the only judge pen left in his palm flew out, and with a strong wind, hit Nangong Ping's back directly!Nangong Pingtou didn't turn his head back, nor dodge, he rushed forward vigorously, although the judge's pen hit him, it was already at the end of a powerful crossbow that couldn't pierce Lu Jin.
Li Feiqiu's eyes flashed, his murderous intent rose, at the moment Shi Lao Er's sword was coming, he did not dodge it, the blade turned, and the knife cut from Shi Lao's neck to the end of the spine, blood spattered all over his face.
Boss Shi let out a wild roar, and threw himself backwards. Li Feiqiu thrust out his two knives and pierced through Boss Shi's belly. Li Feiqiu's eyes protruded, and blood flowed from all seven orifices.
Shi Lao Er was frightened and angry, roared wildly, and stabbed Li Feiqiu's flank with a sword, pierced from the left flank, pierced through the right flank, and a three-foot green blade disappeared at the root.
Li Tieqiu slashed down with two knives, chopped off Shi Laoer's right arm with one knife, and hissed sharply: "Take your life!"
Before the hissing sound ceased, Er Er Shi also slapped Li Tieqiu's chest with a "bang".
Li Tieqiu roared wildly and spat out a mouthful of blood. With two knives in his palm, he fell to the ground with a clang. Shi Laoer's right arm was broken at the root, but he didn't even look at it, as if it wasn't his arm that was broken. With one kick, he kicked Li Tieqiu's lower yin "Shuxi" acupoint!
Hearing Li Tieqiu's miserable cry, his body was thrown up a foot, and he fell into the dark forest with a "bang", unable to survive anymore. The famous mafia fighters, "Taihang Double Swords", died together in an instant.
Shi Er Er shook his body twice, with a sad smile on the corner of his mouth, he murmured: "Boss, I have avenged you." His voice eased, and he fainted on the spot.
"Dian Cangyan" was swept on the left elbow by Ren Kuangfeng, only felt a sharp pain, the pain pierced his heart, turned his eyes, and saw that Shi's Kunzhong died with his opponent, his complexion changed drastically, and he was full of emotions in the blink of an eye With cold sweat falling from his head, he sighed secretly: "That's all!"
Looking up, I felt that Ren Kuangfeng's complexion was ashen. He was kicked in the hip bone by "Dian Cangyan", and he was also in great pain. The two brothers had died here, they looked at each other, Ren Kuangfeng yelled and swung his whip.
Unexpectedly, "Dian Cangyan" suddenly shouted in a low voice: "Stop!"
Ren Kuangfeng's wrist faltered, the long whip retreated, "Dian Cangyan" looked around, blood was all over the ground, he couldn't help looking sad, and secretly sighed: "Senior brother, don't blame me for being cowardly, but how can I be cowardly?" All the elites of the 'Dian Cang' faction will be lost in this battle!"
Thinking of this now, he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "You 'Storm Double Whip' summoned all these underworld friends here today, is it just for that batch of treasures?"
Ren Kuangfeng's heart skipped a beat. Although his head was covered in cold sweat from the pain, his expression did not change at all. Instead, he looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, "Aren't these underworld friends crazy if they don't travel thousands of miles for the treasure?"
"Dian Cangyan" gritted her teeth and said, "If you seize the property, if you stay away from this place immediately, divide the stolen goods quickly, and return to the mountain quickly, my Gongsun Yan will let you wait there!"
Ren Kuangfeng laughed wildly, and said: "After I get it, I will naturally clap my hands and leave. What are you doing here? Humanly, 'Dian Cangyan' is a smart person, how could he say such nonsense at this moment?"
Gongsun Yan's eyes flashed, and she suddenly put her hand into her arms, Ren Kuangfeng was startled, and took another three steps back, thinking that he was going to use a hidden weapon, but when Gongsun Yan raised his wrist, he threw three black lights towards the sky, Just listen to the three soft sounds of "wave, wave, wave", three rains of fire, scattered in all directions, only a radius of tens of feet, all of which are brilliant sparks.
Ren Kuangfeng's thoughts turned, knowing that he was recalling his fellow disciples, he immediately pressed his lips together and let out a long cry.
In an instant, a series of low voices came from the dark forest: "Stop...stop..."
An incomparably tall figure rushed out first, and asked sharply: "Boss Ren, what's wrong?" This person was covered with white hair, and his voice was like a bell, but his expression was also in a state of distress, his clothes were soaked through, There was blood and rain again, a long black-bone whip in his palm, with a piece of pale flesh hanging on the tip of the whip, it was Qin Luanyu, the second child of the famous bandit "Two Whips of Wind and Rain" in the past!
Ren Kuangfeng raised his eyebrows, and said slowly: "Dian Cangyan let go!"
Qin Luanyu was stunned for a while, and said with a chuckle: "Okay, okay..." Seeing the corpse of "Taihang Twin Swords" on the ground, he couldn't help laughing.
In the blink of an eye, more than 20 figures rushed out from the dark forest on both sides. Their bodies were tall and short, and their figures were fast and slow. Behind him, four other Taoists with high buns and three young men with swords came to Gongsun Yan's side.
Gongsun Yan's eyes swept away, and his expression was even more gloomy. A purple-faced and black-bearded Taoist stared at him, and said in a broken voice: "Brother Shi, Brother Shi... unexpectedly..." His voice trembled, and he couldn't continue!
The "Dian Cang School" has brought out all the masters this time, but at this moment, out of the seventeen people, nine have died!
Qin Luanyu's gaze was swept away, his expression was also blank, and he murmured: "...Sixteen... Seventeen... Eighteen..." He stared loudly and shouted: "Is there anyone else in the forest?"
The shout was shrill, stirring in the dark forest with strong wind and bitter rain, but there was no response from all around!
The black-bearded Taoist sneered, raised his sword and said: "Don't ask, although the poor Taoist has not started killing for a long time, but seven of them were killed tonight!" A stream of rain mixed with blood flew out from the spine of the sword.
Qin Luanyu yelled loudly, and said, "What an evil way, you..."
Ren Kuangfeng stretched out his hand and pulled his arm, saying: "Second brother, shut up!" Turning his eyes, he said coldly: "I have heard for a long time that the 'Black Swan' sword of Diancang is as fast as lightning, ruthless and ruthless. It is really good to see you today!"
The black-bearded Taoist opened his eyes, and said sharply: "That's right, I, Taoist Swan, are cruel and merciless, so I'm going to kill you gang of robbers today!"
Ren Kuangfeng sneered, and Gongsun Yan sighed: "Third brother, today's all!"
Taoist Swan's eyes turned cold, and he said, "That's all!"
Gongsun Yan's face sank like water, and she said slowly: "Let them pass."
Taoist Swan's complexion changed, and his eyes swept everywhere, and he saw that all the people under the Diancang Gate were in a panic, some were wounded, and some had lost their long swords.
The fiery swordsman of Diancang was stunned for a while, and then suddenly shouted: "Under my Diancang sect, there is no one who sees the strong and fears it! Even if they all die here today, they will fight him." Last fight."
Gongsun Yan's face darkened, and she shouted: "Shut up!" She raised her palm and said, "Let them pass!"
Taoist Swan clenched his fists tightly, trembling all over his body, and saw Ren Kuangfeng whistling, eighteen underworld heroes all fled towards the depths of the manor, Taoist Swan tremblingly said: "Second brother, you... are you going to send Is the reputation of the 'Dian Cang School' ruined overnight?"
Gongsun Yan let out a long sigh, and said: "Third brother, you are the last to understand the painstaking efforts of second brother..."
A flash of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and he said: "This group of underworld masters, when they arrive in the manor, it will be another bloody battle. At that time, no matter who wins and who loses, there must be mutual losses. We are waiting Here, wait for work with leisure, take a good rest, no matter who it is, as long as they deliver the property, how will your second brother let them give birth to this village?"
Taoist Swan was stunned, and suddenly put his sword back into its sheath, bowed and said: "Second brother has a deep calculation, and younger brother is not as good, but I hope second brother will forgive younger brother's crime of recklessness."
Gongsun Yan looked around at the disciples of Diancang, and sighed sadly: "Anyway, because of the 'demonic covenant' decades ago, if one of my Diancang sects survived today, it would be difficult. I... Sigh! I But I hope that those belongings will not be escorted out by the members of the 'Nangong Family'. Although there is no regret in dying today, the senior brother who is the head of the sect... Sigh! Only the third brother, you are in your prime, and you are the first member of my 'Dian Cang Sect' A master, I will point out that the future life and death of a faction will depend on you alone."
Taoist Swan was dumbfounded for a while, then slowly turned his head away, not wanting his tears to be seen by others, but none of the disciples around looked up.
I only heard the shrill sound of the wind whistling in the dark forest... The sudden raindrops washed away the dazzling pools of blood on the ground...
The night is getting darker!The night deepened.
Nangong Ping ran wildly in the rain, gusts of cold wind blew on his drenched clothes like a knife.
After dozens of ups and downs, his eyes could already touch the majestic roof, standing in the darkness like a prehistoric beast, and the majestic dripping cornices, like its pair of giant wings, want to stand in this stormy sky. The middle flapped its wings and flew up.
Nangong Ping's mind was lifted, and his mind became more anxious. All the incomprehensible doubts would be answered in a moment, but his heart was more like a long arrow hanging on a taut bowstring.
There are a few dim lights in the shadows of the houses, how different from the brilliant lights of "Nangong Villa" in the past.
Like the wind, Nangong Ping rushed up a stone step with a length of more than 20 steps - this is a place he has been familiar with since he was a child. When his toes touched this cold and wet stone step, he couldn't help feeling a burst of warmth in his heart.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a soft shout suddenly sounded from the shadow of the room: "Go back!" Three cold stars shot out in the shape of "pin", two urgent and one slow, two first and one behind.
Where Nangong Ping pointed his eyes, the little cold star that was behind suddenly accelerated. Nangong Ping twisted his body and shrunk his neck in shock, only to hear a "hoo", a sound of wind passing by his ears, the sound of wind It was so fierce that it almost shattered his eardrums, and the other two cold stars folded in the air, and each of them drew a circular arc out of thin air, hitting his left and right flanks like a rainbow. It flew upside down, fought several somersaults in a row, and then fell down the long stone steps again. There was only a sound of "ding", and two cold stars collided, creating a few sparks.
This hidden weapon is so wonderful and powerful that Nangong has never seen it in his life. He never imagined that there are such profound martial arts masters in the villa!
I saw the hidden weapon in the house, and it returned to silence. I don't know what has changed in this huge house?What crisis is hidden?
"Father and mother, isn't it... isn't it in this room anymore?"
Nangong Ping didn't dare to think any more, he jumped up again, hissed, "Which friend is in the room! Nangong Ping has come home!"
Before the shouting was over, there was an exclamation from the room: "Is it Ping'er?" A human figure, as fast as lightning, flew out following the sound, before Nangong Ping could dodge in the future, this figure had already caught him Nangong Ping couldn't get rid of his arm, his heart was shocked, and he looked around, only to see that this person had disheveled temple hair, but a pair of eyes, but kind and bright, unexpectedly it was his mother!
In his life, he had never dreamed that his mother had such astonishing martial arts, he just felt stunned, Mrs. Nangong hugged him into her arms, and said in a trembling voice: "Son, you are back, you are back on time Good!" A burst of warm and kind maternal love made all of Nangong Ping's tiredness, hunger, fear, and doubts be compensated in this instant.
The lights in the hall were dim, and a lonely copper lamp was almost blown out by the wind and rain that suddenly blown in from the hall door that opened suddenly.
In the flickering lights, dozens of mahogany boxes were seen, pushed high in the center of the hall. Some hidden weapons and crossbow arrows were nailed to the wooden boxes randomly. His expression was ancestral mourning, his body was covered in blood, some of them were panting, and they closed their eyes to rest. It was obvious that they had already experienced a fierce battle, and they were even seriously injured.
In this chaotic hall, there is an old man with gorgeous eyes who is still very peaceful and stands with his hands behind his back. The wind and rain outside the door make his long willow beard flutter, but it can't blow his magnificent eyes. Demeanor, firm gaze.
Nangong Ping called out softly: "Daddy", walked over with one step, and knelt down in front of the old man.
Nangong Changshu sighed softly, reached out to caress his beloved son's shoulder, but couldn't say a word for a long time.
Mrs. Nangong gently handed over a silk scarf, wiped off the rain and sweat on Nangong's flat head, and said softly: "My child, these days, you have suffered a lot. I'm afraid...I'm afraid it will make you suffer even more. .”
Nangong Changshu smiled sadly, but remained silent.
Nangong Ping only saw his father's dejected expression, saw his mother's haggard face, and saw this chaotic hall, he was even more surprised, and he didn't care about talking with his long-lost parents again, turned over and stood up, Bluntly asked: "Daddy, why did you sell all the stores in Jiangnan? The 'Dian Cang Sect' has never had any contact with us? Why do you surround the 'Nangong Villa' at this moment, as if to protect the 'Nangong Villa'?" ', but they seem to have bad intentions towards us. Also, why are the 'Magic Islands', which are only rumored in the martial arts world but no one has seen them, going against us? Daddy, please speak out quickly. The child is really anxious to death."
He said it out in one breath, looked at his father helplessly, Mrs. Nangong sighed quietly, and said: "Speak slowly if you have something to say, son, why are you still so impatient."
Nangong Changshu looked solemn, strode to the hall door, stared at it for a while, then suddenly turned around, bowed and said: "Everyone, please forgive me for being rude!"
Everyone was amazed, and some couldn't help but struggled to stand up, and murmured: "This... this..."
Before the words were finished, Nangong Changshu's figure suddenly flashed, and the hall was full of people's shadows, and all the big men in strong clothes fell on the chairs, fell asleep, and snored in an instant , It seems to be in a deep sleep.
Seeing his father raising his hands, Nangong Ping clicked the "sleeping points" of these big guys together, he felt even more horrified, blurted out: "Daddy, you actually know martial arts!"
It turns out that no one in the world knows that the owner of the "Nangong Consortium" is actually a martial artist with peerless martial arts, and even his son is seeing him for the first time.
Nangong Changshu stood facing the wall without turning his head, and said in a deep voice: "Ping'er, you have been well-clothed and well-fed since you were young, and everything is up to you. Even if you made a mistake, your father and your mother never scolded you. After you said a word, do you know what this is for?"
Although Nangong Ping couldn't see his father's face, but seeing his father's shoulders trembling, he was obviously very excited, and he was shocked, and said in a panic: "My child... I don't know!" Said: "The child made a mistake, Daddy should have punished him."
Mrs. Nangong's face was pale, she took two quick steps, then stopped suddenly, covered her face and said, "Brother...this...why is the child so miserable!"
Nangong Changshu still didn't turn his head back, but his body trembled more violently, and he said slowly: "I treat you like this. It's because from now on, not only will you not be able to enjoy any happiness and warmth in the world, but you will also eat all the things that the world can't bear. Torment and hardship, are you willing to endure it?"
Nangong Ping suppressed the tears in his eyes, tremblingly said: "It's right for a child to endure hardship for parents, but you should tell me, Dad, what...what is going on?"
Outside the hall, the wind and rain knocked on the window, and the sound was heartbreaking...
Nangong Changshu's ten fingers gradually contracted, and he gradually clenched his fists, and his voice became heavier.
"The Nangong family is the richest in the world," he said in a deep voice, "How did this wealth come from, do you know?"
Nangong Ping's heart shook, and he said, "Could it be...Could it be..."
Nangong Changshu interrupted and said: "Your Xuanzu was originally the poorest person. He suffered from poverty and vowed to become the richest man in the world. You went overseas to do business, but you didn’t know that the boat was halfway there, but it encountered a storm. Although your Xuanzu caught on a piece of boat wood and drifted to an unknown island, he was lucky to survive, but he became empty-handed and had nothing.”
He clenched his fists tightly, and said in a deep voice: "The old man found that his aspirations were empty again, and he felt sad, and couldn't help crying. Who knew that the island was not a deserted island. His old man was in despair. , Ba suddenly discovered that there are many old people wearing ancient clothes on this island, it turns out that this unknown island is the oldest and most mysterious "House of the Gods" in the martial arts world."
Nangong Ping's heart was shocked again, only to hear his father answer: "Those old people asked your Xuanzu's life experience and experience, carefully looked at him, and actually kept him for three years. During the years, your Xuanzu suffered many hardships and suffered a lot, and three years later those people suddenly brought your Xuanzu to Meibian, and there was a huge ship moored by the sea, and countless treasures were piled up on the ship!"
He paused, and then said: "Your Xuanzu was staring dumbfounded, but those strange old people gave this sea boat to your Xuanzu, but they asked him to swear a heavy oath, After making a contract, the "Nangong" family will order the eldest son to bring a batch of silver to the "Gods Hall" every other generation, and the silver will be doubled every generation, unless the Nangong family kills their offspring. The contract can never be violated..."
Nangong Changshu continued: "In your last generation, this batch of silver has piled up to an incredible number, saying that your grandfather used all the silver that can be used to send your uncle to send the silver. At that time... Sigh! Unmarried, but your uncle already has a son."
Nangong Ping hadn't heard of this mysterious and mysterious history of his family until now. He was trembling and sweating all over his head when he heard this, and he couldn't help hissing, "My uncle, where is he right now? Where is that cousin?"
Nangong Changshu shook his body, and said: "On the day your uncle left, he actually broke the heart of his newly married wife and the infant baby at the same time, because he has calculated that after another generation, Even if the "Nangong Family" sold all their wealth, they still couldn't make up the money. He couldn't bear the suffering of his offspring, and he didn't want me to marry and have children. He left a painful last word and took the money to Since then, there has been no news of his whereabouts..."
When he said this, the tragic meaning in his voice was already chilling. The world only knew that the "Nangong Family" was rich and glorious, and it was incomparable. Who knew that the "Nangong Family" was full of sorrow, blood and tears, and tragic And the mysterious history?
Mrs. Nangong covered her face with her hands and cried out, "Brother, you...don't say anything."
Nangong Changshu faced the wall, as if he had never heard of it, and said word by word: "Not long after your uncle left, your grandfather also passed away. I kept my filial piety at home for three years, so I went out to inquire about your uncle's whereabouts, but When we send the silver to each generation as promised, there is a letter sent by the envoy of the "House of the Gods" in advance, specifying a port, and then leading them to go. It's not just that we in the "Nangong Family" don't know the island. The real location, in the vast sea of people, no one knows where the 'Palace of the Gods' is. I wandered in the lake for many years, and finally I was completely disappointed, but I didn't want to meet your mother during this period of time. "
Mrs. Nangong suddenly wiped away the tears on her face, walked to Nangong Changshu's side, gently held his palm, and said slowly: "You have to say it, let me say it!"
"As soon as I met your father," Mrs. Nangong said, "I fell in love with your father, but your father always avoided me. I felt strange and uncomfortable, and in a fit of anger, I decided to marry another person. People are also your father's friends, but one day... one day your father was plotted against by someone, and he was poisoned. After the poison, he told me all the past, and I realized that he avoided me. What a pity, it turned out that he knew that the 'Nangong Family' building would collapse, and he couldn't bear to let me come late to suffer, and even more couldn't bear... and couldn't bear to let our children have to pay off the debts and endure hardships for our ancestors as soon as they grow up!"
Nangong Changshu suddenly turned around, his face was livid under the light, but his eyes were filled with tears, and he continued in a deep voice: "But your mother is not afraid of these things, let alone poverty, she killed me within one night. Back to Tianshan, looking for the antidote, so I... I..."
Mrs. Nangong leaned on him slowly, and interrupted: "So I couldn't leave your father anymore. Later, we gave birth to you, we want you to enjoy your life, and we don't want you to work hard to learn martial arts, so there is no inheritance You are martial arts, but you are good at martial arts by nature, and we can't bear to go against your wish, so we send you to the "Shenlong" school as you wish, child... We are sorry for you..." Before the words were finished, I couldn't help but lower myself burst into tears.
Nangong Ping let out a weeping cry, and threw himself on his parents. Amidst the sound of the wind and rain, the three of them leaned on each other. Although their hearts were full of sorrow, they were also full of sincerity.
Nangong Changshu caressed his beloved son's hair, and said sadly: "I only hope that the divine letter from the 'Palace of the Gods' will be delivered later, so I have never wanted you to get married, but this time they seem to have made up their minds." Nangong The aristocratic family has no more money, and sent the secret letter before you get married and have children. As long as we get all the money, the messenger will come again and take you away, child, this is the oath made by your ancestors , your father... your father, although your mother loves you, but... how can..." The words were still, and the old tears fell down.
Nangong straightened out his chest and said: "Father, mother, this is a debt that our Nangong family should pay, and we must pay it off..."
Mrs. Nangong said in tears: "But, child, you..."
Nangong Ping opened his eyes sharply, clenched his teeth, and said resolutely: "Boy, I will definitely come back. No matter how mysterious the 'House of Gods' is, I swear to come back to serve your old man. Although there are iron walls there, it can't hold you back." Boy, what's more, since those people have the name of 'gods', how can they force others to be unfilial?"
Mrs. Nangong smiled sadly and said, "Good boy..."
Nangong Changshu sighed sadly: "It's just this time... Alas! People from the 'Island of Demons' appeared in the rivers and lakes again, and they were determined not to let us send money to the 'Palace of the Gods'."
Nangong Ping suddenly said: "No wonder they used secret agreements to force people from several major martial arts sects to rob the 'Nangong Family' of dart money."
Nangong Changshu nodded and sighed: "At this moment, the disciples of the 'Diancang Sect' outside the village are staying outside the village because they failed to rob these treasures. Although they seem to be protecting the 'Nangong Villa', they are actually Don't let us transport the treasure out, besides, there are also some great thieves in the rivers and lakes, who also want to make this windfall. In the past few days, this 'Nangong Villa' has had countless battles, and how much blood has been shed , Alas...wealth, besides bringing troubles and pains to our Nangong family, what else is there? My child, if you were born in a poor family, how could you have the pain you have today?"
The wind and rain knocked on the window more urgently, and someone suddenly sighed outside the window, saying: "I was wrong!"
Nangong Ping was startled, and sternly said: "Who is it?" But he saw that his father's figure had flitted to the window, he raised his hand, the window was shaken open, and the wind and rain came through the window.
Nangong Changshu raised his palm again, and sighed outside the window: "Boss, don't you recognize me?"
Mrs. Nangong exclaimed: "Lu Yixian!" She rushed to the window with one step.
Nangong Changshu also exclaimed in surprise: "Second brother, is that you?" There was surprise and joy in his voice.
Nangong Ping stopped his figure and stared at him, only to see a man standing by the window, bald and sharp-eyed, with a gloomy expression, it was that strange old man "Qian Crazy".
He never thought that this old man who loves money and life is actually his father's "second younger brother", his eyes moved, and he was stunned.
I saw the old man standing there with his head bowed for a long while, with a flick of his robe sleeves, as if blown in by the wind, he had already entered the window in a blink of an eye, Nangong Changshu grabbed his shoulder and said: "Second brother, I haven't seen you for many years." , you...how did you become like this?"
"Qian Chi" stared blankly, but couldn't help murmuring: "I was wrong, I was wrong..."
Mrs. Nangong said dejectedly: "The past is in the past, why do you still bring it up, instead of blaming you, my eldest brother and I feel... we feel sorry for you."
"Qian Chi" suddenly yelled: "I was wrong!" Kneeling down in front of Nangong Changshu, with tears streaming down his eyes, he said, "Brother, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for you..."
Nangong Changshu knelt down while supporting him with his hands, and said sadly, "Second brother, get up quickly..."
"Qian Chi" said: "If I don't say my words, I will die and I won't get up. These words have been bored in my heart for twenty years."
He looked up to the sky and sighed: "Twenty years ago, I was only the third sister who was greedy for the wealth and glory of the 'Nangong Family', so she left me and married you, but I didn't know that she had fallen in love with you long ago, but I didn't know Not only did she marry you not to enjoy wealth, but to accompany you to endure pain, I...so farewell without saying goodbye, and even attracted a group of enemies to plot against you..."
Nangong Changshu sighed: "Second brother, since my third sister and I are fine, why are you still blaming yourself?"
"Money idiot" hissed: "How can I not blame myself and feel guilty, so that I can feel at ease? Over the years, I have been secretly cursing you day and night, and I frantically searched for wealth. I hardly use any means. I hide my name, save money, and make everyone think I am a lunatic. I swear that I will gather more wealth than the 'Nangong Family', but..."
He suddenly raised his palm, threw the sack that he had been holding tightly in his arms on the ground, and hissed sadly: "Even if I have accumulated millions of wealth, what is the use? I only know today that even if I have millions of wealth, You can’t buy sincere emotions, even if you have a million dollars, you can’t reduce people’s pain, brother, I... I was wrong, I’m sorry for you.”
Nangong Changshu said sadly: "Did you hear it just now?"
"Qian Chi" nodded tearfully.
Nangong Changshu gently helped him up, and said: "No matter what, today you and I are together again, it is always a joyous event." Zhanyan smiled, turned his head and said: "Ping'er , Come quickly and meet your second uncle, this is the second uncle Lu Yixian Lu who was famous in the world in the past and known as the 'God's Invisible Bronze Fist and Iron Palm'."
Nangong Ping, who had been stunned in the local area, felt relieved at this moment, and walked over immediately.
Lu Yixian wiped away tears, and said with a broken face, "Son, I never thought you would have such a worthless uncle!"
Mrs. Nangong blinked her eyes, she didn't know whether she was crying or smiling, and she didn't know whether it was sadness or joy in her heart, but two tears flowed down her cheeks, choked.Yin said: "I never thought that we would see you again, let alone that you, who loves to dress up the most, would look like this. You...are you crazy poor, you can't even afford to buy a piece of clothes."
Lu Yixian's tears were still wet, he laughed and said: "I'm not crazy poor, but crazy stingy, it's in my broken sack, although I have millions of money, I'm reluctant to use a penny."
Nangong Changshu sighed with a smile: "Are you doing this for her, alas! Really..."
Mrs. Nangong said angrily: "Look at you, you don't know how to be respectful when speaking in front of children." Before she finished speaking, a smile could not help but spread on her tear-stained face.
Although the three old men were full of melancholy, their hearts could not help but be filled with the joy of reunion. In an instant, they seemed to have returned to the flying youth, riding across Ting Lake, smiling and mastering the martial arts, twenty years of time, Sometimes it is so long, but sometimes it seems very short.
Nangong Ping looked at the three of them laughing with tears in their eyes, and felt the sadness in their hearts lessened a lot, and said with a smile: "Second uncle is good at drinking, but I want my nephew..."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a loud shout from outside the window, three long arrows pierced through the window with a series of ringing bells, and with a sound of "Duo", the three arrows were inserted side by side into the red wooden boxes piled up high.
Lu Yixian's complexion changed slightly, but he smiled again: "Very good, very good, I never imagined that the loud arrows used by the robbers in the forest would actually take care of Big Brother's home!"
Nangong Changshu smiled and said: "The archer's wrist is not weak, I don't know which way he is a hero?"
I only heard a stern shout from outside the hall: "Ren Kuangfeng and Qin Luanyu led heroes from all walks of life from the three mountains and eighteen villages to come to ask for some money from the owner of Nangong Villa of Nangong Villa. They are opening the door to welcome them, or closing the door to refuse. Let Nangong Village It's up to the Lord." The voice was loud and clear, full of energy.
Nangong Changshu frowned slightly, and said, "Why did the wind and rain double whip come out of the mountain again?"
Lu Yixian said: "If I change my current underworld friends, I'm afraid I don't even want to talk about these festivals. As soon as the person arrives, I will do it immediately."
Mrs. Nangong smiled and said: "No wonder you have a million-dollar fortune, so you are so familiar with the current situation of robbers..." Looking at Nangongping with a smile, she suddenly stopped talking.
The enemy is in front of them, but the three of them are still talking and laughing freely, as if they didn't see the rampant bandit "Wind and Rain Double Whip" in their eyes, Nangong Ping secretly thought: "It turns out that my mother also joked when she was young."
There was another loud shout from outside the hall, saying: "Whether it's good or bad, answer quickly, if you shout three times, the brothers will break in!" Then someone shouted: "One!"
Lu Yixian waved his arms, his body was very long, he smiled and said: "Little brother is not old yet, how are you, boss?"
Nangong Changshu stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Brother, I am so old!"
Lu Yixian laughed loudly and said: "Okay!" He patted his waist suddenly, only to hear the bell ringing beside his waist, and said with a smile: "Now?"
Nangong Changshu said: "Naturally!"
Mrs. Nangong smiled lightly and said: "Okay, your brother's 'Huahualing' is still there, but my flower is already old."
There was another loud shout outside the window: "Two."
Lu Yixian laughed wildly: "My brother is not old yet, how can you be old? Boss, is Vanguard still your younger brother?"
Nangong Changshu said: "Okay."
As soon as the word "good" came out of the mouth, Lu Yixian jumped up suddenly, turned over in the air, and landed on Nangong Changshu's outstretched arms.
Nangong Changshu yelled sharply: "Go!" He flipped his palms over!As soon as he sent it off, Lu Yixian's figure flew straight out like an arrow leaving the string.
With a sound of "Peng", the hall door opened in all directions, and then with a "ding dong", a golden thread flew in from outside the door, and another golden thread flew out from Nangong Changshu's palm!
There was another "jingle" sound, the two gold threads were tangled in one place, Nangong Changshu shouted: "Come!" There was an exclamation from outside the door.
After the lingering sound, with a "hoo", Lu Yixian's body flew straight back, a golden thread was wrapped around the left palm, while the right palm was holding a tall old man by the neck. Throwing it, throwing it heavily on the ground, it turned out to be Ren Kuangfeng in the "Two Whips of Wind and Rain"!
Nangong Ping gasped, wondering if it was shock?Is it Pei?
Staring at the place, I realized that on the two golden threads, there was a small golden bell tied at each end. When Lu Yixian's figure flew out with the help of Nangong Changshu's palm, the golden bell in his palm flew out. The golden bell in Chang Shu's palm also flew out, the two golden bells joined together, the golden threads intertwined, Nangong Changshu retracted the palm force, Lu Yixian hit in the air, grabbed Ren Kuangfeng, and took advantage of the momentum to fly back. If it is true that it goes away like an arrow, returns like the wind, comes and goes in vain, and is as anxious as lightning, even if the opponent is first-class in skill, he will be caught off guard and unable to guard against it.
Nangong Ping only felt the blood rushing in his heart, and couldn't help but blurted out: "What a flower protector!"
There was chaos outside the hall again, an old voice shouted wildly: "Is it the 'Three Friends of the Wind and Dust' in the hall?"
Nangong Changshu and Lu Yixian looked at each other and smiled, only to see that Ren Kuangfeng had struggled to get up, his complexion was pale, full of horror, and he said in a trembling voice: "It really is the three friends of Fengchen!"
Lu Yixian smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for many years, it's hard for you to recognize my brother."
Ren Kuangfeng let out a long sigh, bowed his head and said, "I don't recognize the three of you anymore, but I will never forget the stunt of 'shocking the rainbow and striking the lightning, killing the golden bell'."
Lu Yixian laughed loudly and said: "Shocked by the rainbow, the electricity hits a golden bell, and the ringtone vibrates and ecstasy... Haha! Brother, I never thought that the game you and I practiced by accident would be called a martial arts stunt by people in the world." The laughter burst out After a pause, he turned his head and said: "Since you still remember my brother, have you forgotten the heavy oath you made in front of my brother in the past!"
Ren Kuangfeng lowered his head and sighed: "If I know the owner of the 'Nangong Villa', he is a cold-faced green-shirted man among the three friends of the past, and I dare not step into the 'Nangong Villa'."
Lu Yixian said coldly: "Now that you know, what should you do now?"
There was still chaos under the long steps outside the hall, Ren Kuangfeng turned his head and shouted: "Second Qin, quickly take the brothers out of the villa one mile away, the 'Three Friends of Fengchen' is here!"
After shouting, Qin Luanyu swept up, turned his gaze, and said: "Sure enough, there are three heroes. I didn't expect my brother to practice hard for twenty years, but he still couldn't stop the volley blow of Hero Lu. !"
In the violent wind and rain, someone below the steps yelled sharply: "What's the 'Three Friends of the Wind and Dust'? My brother came from a long way, so he returned empty-handed just because of this sentence?" Dozens of figures rushed forward.
The "Three Friends of Fengchen" looked solemn and remained silent.
Qin Luanyu suddenly turned around and said, "Who said that?"
Two short and sharp men in brown clothes with twinkling eyes came out, and the one on the left said coldly: "If you want a good friend to walk, at least you have to bring out some real guys. Is it enough to say a few words?"
The person on the right looked back and shouted: "Brothers, what can you say?"
The crowd responded chaotically, and Ren Kuangfeng smiled and said, "So it's Lord Baizhai." He walked up to the two of them with a smile, and continued, "So, what do you two want?"
A person on the left said in a low voice: "Brothers have come from thousands of miles, at least you have to spend a thousand taels of silver for money. Even though you two are seniors, you have to take care of us poor brothers."
Ren Kuangfeng laughed and said, "Is one thousand taels of silver enough?...Take it..." Flipping his palms, he heard two sounds of "Bang! Bang!", and the Bai brothers let out a miserable cry and spurted a mouthful of blood , rolled down the long steps, Ren Kuangfeng said with a smile: "Which other brother wants to take money?"
四下漫无回应，只听惨呼之声渐渐微弱，终于寂火，只剩下风的呼啸，雨的滴落，十数条大汉站在一齐，竟连大气都不敢喘。
任狂风面色——寒，厉叱道：“退下去！”十余条大汉一个个面如土色，齐地翻转身躯，蜂拥着奔下长阶，再无一人敢回头望上一眼。
“风雨双鞭”一齐回转身来，南宫常恕叹道：“你我相识多年，两位亦未曾忘记我兄弟，说来彼此已可算是故人，只是我此刻已遇非常之变，不能以酒为两位洗尘，两位如有所需，我还可略助一二。”
任狂风垂首道：“庄主如不怪罪，我兄弟已是感激不尽……”
南宫常恕道：“既是如此，我也不愿再多客套，今日就此别过。”双手一抬，拱手送客。
任狂风、秦乱雨恭身一揖，方待转身，鲁逸仙道：“且慢，两位方才由庄前进来，不知可曾遇着那些'点苍'弟子？”
秦乱雨道：“点苍门人，此刻已伤残过半，除了点苍燕、黑天鹅两人外。能战的只怕不多了。”他微一思忖，已知鲁逸仙问话之意，说完之后，立刻躬身告退，这两人当真不愧是江湖大行家，见了眼色，便已知道别人心意。
鲁逸仙回到厅中，一抹面上雨水，沉声道：“外围既已空虚，大哥你何不乘此时机，将箱子运至庄外？”
南宫常恕惨然一笑，道：“诸神使者，已来过一次，但却仍未说明交宝地点，箱子纵然运出，却要送到何处？”
鲁逸仙呆了半晌，突地仰天长笑，笑道：“无论何时，无论有多少人阻拦，凭我们几人，还怕闯不出去么！”
他身躯一动，掌中的金铃，便随之叮当作响，铃声清越，在风雨中仍可远远传送出去。
南宫平望着他掌中的金铃，想到这三个老人方才的威风，反复低诵着：“惊虹掣电一金铃，铃声一振一销魂！”这两句似诗非诗、似歌非歌的词句，心中豪气逸风，目光也闪出了喜悦的光彩。
鲁逸仙笑道：“孩子，你可听出这铃声有什么奇异之处么？”
南宫平含笑摇头。
南宫夫人道：“这金铃本是你爹爹的传家之物，共有三对，别的似乎还无什么异处，但只要其中一对金铃一振，另两对便也会同时作响，古来高深乐理之中，载有'共振'一词，这金铃虽非乐器，但这种现象却与音乐中的'共振'相同。”
她自怀中取出一双金铃，南宫平伸手接过，鲁逸仙掌中会铃一振，南宫平掌中的金铃果然也发出了一种清越的“嗡嗡”声响：
南宫平不禁大奇，他却不知道天地之大，万物之奇，其中的确有许多是不能以常理解释的事物。
南宫常恕道：“昔年我三人闯荡江湖之际，只有你母亲武功最弱，我们生恐她落单遇险，是以便将这金铃每人分了一对，她一遇险，铃声一响，我们这两对金铃，便也会生出一种奇异的'共振'感应，便可急往驰救……”
鲁逸仙大笑接口道：“是以你爹爹便将这金铃取了个奇妙而好听的名字，名曰'护花'……”
南宫常恕笑道：“这'扩花铃'三字，倒不是我杜撰而出，昔年，汉献帝爱花成性，惟恐飞雀残花，是以便在宫园中的花木上，系了无数金铃，只要雀鸟一落花上，金铃之声大震，而宫廷中的'护花使者'，便会即来驱鸟，当时京朝中人，便将这金铃称为'护花铃'，后来诗人，也作有'十万金铃常护花'之句，我取的这'护花'两字，也不过只是用的这个典故。”
南宫夫人轻轻一笑，道：“几十年前的事，还说它作什么，平儿，你若是喜欢，这一对金铃你就收着吧，以后你若是在江湖问……”她突地想起爱子即将去向不知名的远方，笑容一敛，立刻染上了一重沉重的忧郁。
南宫常恕微微一叹，将金铃交给南宫平，道：“这一对你也收着吧，你爹爹妈妈再也没有别的东西给你，这两对金铃，你要好好珍惜，将来……”说到“将来”两字，他也不禁长叹一声，默然无言，目光沉重地投落到厅外的苦雨凄风之中，远处仍是一片黑暗。
南宫平手捧着四只金铃，无言地垂下头去……
鲁逸仙目光一转，朗声笑道：“你父母都将金铃送给了你，我若再留下，莫教你将我这二叔，看作当真这般小气，来，拿去，好生藏着，将来若是遇着合意的女子，不妨分给她一对！”
南宫平躬身接过。
南宫夫人强笑道：“无论如何，今日我们重逢，总该庆祝，我去做两样小菜，让你们小酌两杯，好在这里多了鲁老二和平儿，我也可以放一下心了。”
鲁逸仙道：“三妹……呀，大嫂，何需你自己动手？”
南宫夫人目光一阵黯然，嘴角却仍含笑道：“仆人都早巳打发走了！……”语声之中，她身形已转出厅后。
南宫平见到妈妈竟自己操作起来，不禁暗中长叹一声，立定志愿要将家业恢复，不让妈妈受苦。
南宫常恕解开了那些护镖而来、苦战受伤的大汉的穴道，再三道歉，那般镖客见到这衣衫褴褛的秃顶老人，竟然就是昔年以轻功拳掌名震江湖的鲁逸仙，不禁大是惊异，见到南宫平这“神龙”门下的弟子，神情也颇为谦卑，知道这大厅中已无自己出力之处，再者也实在伤重疲乏，便到后房安歇了。
鲁逸仙望着他们的背影，微微叹道：“江湖中若是没有这一些热血的义勇男儿，只怕再也无人愿教子弟学武了。”
酒菜简洁而精致，但众人心头却多感叹，南宫常恕持杯四望，缓缓道：“二弟，今后你我持杯同饮的机会，只怕又要多了。”
鲁逸仙道：“自然。”
南宫常恕道：“不知道江湖间还有多少人记得我们这风尘三友？”
鲁逸仙心头一动，道：“大哥你莫非又要重出江湖了么？”
南宫常恕以一丝微笑掩住了神色间的黯然，道：“这山庄我已卖了，月底便要迁出，日后少不得又要过一过四海为家的日子。”
南宫平变色道：“卖了？”
南宫常恕道：“卖了还不见得够数……”
鲁逸仙拾起了那只麻袋，朗声笑道：“我这只麻袋中便存百万财富，大哥你要用多少？”
南宫常恕仰天笑道：“我自幼及长，遍历人生，却始终不知道贫穷是何滋味，如今有了这个机会，怎肯轻轻放过，二弟，你且放下这些，先来痛饮三杯。”
南宫平见到他爹爹如此豪气，端起酒杯，一饮而尽。
鲁逸仙道：“贫穷滋味么？却也不是……”突地大喝一声：“什么人？”手扶桌沿，长身而起。
门外夜色沉沉，风雨交加，只听一阵沙沙之声，自长阶上响起，鲁逸仙立掌一扬，掌风过处，厅门立开，门外却见不到半条人影。
南宫父子、鲁逸仙面色齐地一变，一阵风扑面而来，风中似乎带着一种奇异的腥臭之味。
南宫夫人恰巧端着一盘素鸡自厅后走出，目光转处，只见门外黑暗中突地亮起了两盏绿油油的灯火，心头一颤，脱口呼道：“蛇！”当啷一声，手中瓷盘落到地上，跌得粉碎。
只见这两点绿火摇摇晃晃，自远而近，南宫平低叱一声，身形离椅而起，却被鲁逸仙一把拉了他的手腕，道：“且慢！”张口一喷，一股银线，激射而出，宛如一道银虹般，射向那两点奇异的绿火。
腥风之中，立刻弥漫了酒香，南宫平知道鲁逸仙这种以内力逼出的酒箭，威力非同小可，只见那两点绿火果然一闪而灭。
“哗”地一声，酒箭射在地上，听来宛如一盘珍珠洒落玉盘。
南宫常恕皱眉道：“武林中自从'万兽山庄'火焚之后，已未闻再有能驱蛇役兽的高手，这条蛇岂非来得甚是奇怪！”
言犹未了，那两点绿火竟又再冉冉升起，接着，远处突地响起了一阵乐声，自漫天风雨中袅袅传来，其声悠扬，非丝非竹，那两点绿光竟随着乐声越升越高。
南宫常恕面色微变，一把抄起桌面上的酒壶，随手一挥，一道酒泉，自脚边直落到门外，他左手又已拿起了铜灯，俯身一燃，只听“蓬”地一声，烈酒俱都燃起。
火光照耀中，只见门外石阶上，一条粗如海碗般的青鳞巨蛇，红信一闪，倒退了数尺。
鲁逸仙惊呼一声，却已远远退到厅角。
南宫夫人微微一笑，道：“想不到鲁老二还是如此怕蛇。”
鲁逸仙道：“你又何尝不怕！”
南宫平恍然忖道：“难怪他见到那帮关外恶鬼那般畏惧，原来他并非怕人，只是怕蛇而已。”
火光一闪而灭，乐声更复尖锐，南宫夫人素手一扬，两点银星，激射而出，绿火应手而灭，巨蛇一阵翻腾，自长阶上滚落了下去，乐声一变，突地由尖细变为雄浑，接着竟是震天般一声虎吼，一条白额猛虎，白长阶下直窜上来。
南宫平厉叱一声：“畜生！”一个箭步，窜出厅外，那猛虎正自凌空扑了下来，南宫平身形一闪，便掠在猛虎身后，猛虎前爪落地，后爪一掀，南宫平拧腰错步，滑开七尺。
猛虎狂吼一声，只闻腥风漫天，震得厅中杯盏，俱都落在地上，吼声之中，虎尾一翦。
南宫平耸肩一掠，掠起一丈，那猛虎一扑、一掀、一翦，俱都落空，气性已自没了大半，南宫平身形凌空一翻，头下脚上，一掌劈将下来，只听又是震天般一声虎吼，鲜血飞激，这一掌竟生生将虎首击碎，南宫平身形借着手掌这一击之势，又自掠起，乘势一足，将猛虎踢落长阶下，右足之上，都已沾着一串虎血。
这一闪、一滑、一跃、一掌、一足，不但动作一气呵成，快如闪电，而且姿势轻松美妙已极。
鲁逸仙目光转处，拊掌大笑道：“好身手呀好身手，毕竟不愧是'神龙'子弟……”
话声未了，乐声又是一变，丝竹之声全寂，金鼓之声大震，霎眼之间，风雨中充满了疯狂而原始的节奏，四条长大的黑影，自黑暗中旋舞而出，跳跃着奔上石阶，竟是四只力可生擒虎豹的金毛猩猿。
朦胧光影中，只见这四只猩猿，满身金光闪闪，目中更散发着狰狞而丑恶的光芒，挥动着长臂，咧张着血口，发出一阵阵刺耳的呼啸，在右阶上不停跳跃、旋转，与那疯狂的鼓声，混合成一幅原始的画面。
南宫常恕变色低叱道：“平儿，回来。”
南宫平头也不回，双拳紧握，面对着这四只猩猿。
只听暗林中突地响起一阵奇异的语声：“南宫常恕，你还死守着大厅作甚，还不赶快退去，神兽一至，你们便死无葬身之地了！”语声尖细，似有似无，自疯狂的鼓声中缥缈传来。
南宫平大喝一声：“放屁！”呼呼两拳，直击而出。
两股拳劲，冲破风雨，笔直击向当中两只猩猿身上。
这两只猩猿怪啸一声，身子一翻，速翻两个斛斗，落下石阶，足爪方一点地，再翻两个斛斗，霍地又掠了上来，金睛闪闪，白牙森森，四条长臂一振，直朝南宫平扑了上去。
南宫平拧腰转身，“双龙出云”，急地攻出两掌，哪知道两条猩猿形状虽笨拙，身手却灵活，竟似也懂得武功，怪啸声中，长臂挥动，竟将南宫平的身形笼罩九一片金色光影之中，举手投足间，居然暗合武功解数。
另两条猩猿龇牙一笑，踏着那疯狂的节奏，劝；朝南宫平直逼过来，长臂飞舞，加入战团。
鼓声越来越急，这四条猩猿的身形越舞越急，只见一团金光，围着一条灰影，在风雨中往来旋转。
南宫常恕双眉微挑，一步掠出，呼呼攻出两掌，强劲的掌风，将一只猩猿击开一丈，滚到地上。
鲁逸仙闪身一掠，突地撮口长啸起来。
啸声高亢，上冲霄汉，久久不绝，直震得四下木叶，簌簌飘落。
暗林中的鼓声，节奏一乱，那四只金毛猩猿顿时身法大乱。
南宫常恕掌势一圈，“砰”地一掌，击在一只猩猿的胸膛上，这一掌满蓄真力，便是巨石也要被他击成粉碎，只听这猩猿怪啸一声，喷出一口鲜血，翻滚着落下石阶。
鲁逸仙啸声不绝，双拳齐出，那猩猿仰身一躲，鲁逸仙急伸右足。轻轻一勾，“噗”地一声，猩猿翻身跌倒。鲁逸仙手掌疾沉，闪电般抄住了这猩猿的双足。猛地大喝一声，双臂展动，竟将这身长一丈的猩猿。呼地抡了起来，乘势一连抡了三圈，手掌一松，那猩猿便直飞了出去，远远落入暗林中。
南宫平精神一震，双拳一足，将另一只猩猿踢飞三丈。
此刻鼓声虽又重震，但剩下的一只猩猿，却再也不敢恋战，连滚带爬地如飞逃去。
鲁逸仙伸手一拍南宫平肩头，哈哈笑道：“好孩子，好武功！”
南宫常恕面对风雨，朗声道：“各位朋友听好，此刻南宫山庄有的是巨万财宝，只要朋友们有意，尽管凭本领取去，又何苦偷偷躲在暗林中，却叫些不成气候的畜生出来现丑！”
暗林中鼓声已然渐轻渐缓，丝竹之声又复响起。
乐声变得轻柔而美妙，鼓声低沉，更仿佛一声声敲在人心底。
一阵风吹过，风中不但已无腥臭，反而带着一种缥缥缈缈、不可捕捉的奇异香气，令人神智为之一荡，心旌几乎不可自主，沉沉的夜色，凄凉的风雨，却仿佛染上了一层粉红的颜色。
突地，暗林中亮起了四道眩目的灯光，灯光连闪几闪，石前那一片方圆三丈的空地上，竟出现了六个身披纯白轻纱，头戴鲜花草笠的窈窕少女，踏着那轻柔而动人的旋律，轻回曼舞起来。
雨势不停，妻时间便将这六个少女身上的轻纱，淋得湿透。
于是纯白的轻纱，就变成了透明的颜色，若有若无地笼罩着那青春的胴体……
乐声更荡，少女们的舞姿也更撩人，南宫平剑眉一轩，回转头去，却听鲁逸仙朗声笑道：“平儿，你回头作甚？”
南宫平呆了一呆，不知该如何回答。
鲁逸仙笑道：“人生在世，什么事都该经历经历，这荡魄魔音，销魂艳舞，倒也不是经常可以看得到的，你如轻轻放过了，岂非可惜？”
南宫夫人笑道：“你怎地如此不正经，平儿年纪轻轻，你叫他怎能有那般'视而不见，听而不闻'的定力，不去看它，虽然着相，在他这样的年纪，也只得如此了。”
鲁逸仙哈哈笑道：“我教他看，正是要磨练磨练他的心神定力，好教他日后再遇着这般局面，不致手足失措。”
南宫平见到这三个老人在如此猥亵邪淫的场合之中，仍有如此泰然自若的神情，若非有十分坦荡的胸襟，怎会有如此开阔的气度？心中不禁大是赞叹，微笑回首道：“孩儿只是见不得这种做作而已，其实又怎会被这般庸俗的脂粉所动？”
鲁逸仙大笑道：“正是正是，心中有了超尘绝俗的佳丽，又怎会再被这般庸俗脂粉昕动！”
南宫平面颊微微一红，只听暗林中又自传出一阵语声：“艳红十丈中，多的是这些乐事，你的心可曾动了么？你只要不再固执，这些春花般的美女都可供你享受，你又何苦如此固执，硬要将金银财宝送给别人享受？”
南宫常恕面沉如水，微微皱眉道：“二弟，你可记得这种先以威逼恐吓，再以色诱的手段，武林中有淮最最惯用？”
鲁逸仙目光一转，沉吟道：“大哥之意，难道说的是昔年'万兽山庄'的女主人'得意妃子'？”
南宫常恕道：“得意妃子自从'万兽山庄'火焚之后，虽然久已销声灭迹，今日这一些做作，也远不如昔年她的手段厉害，但方法作风却与她昔年同出一辙，你若不信，且看今日此人威吓色诱不成，必定立刻就要施出最后一手了。”
鲁逸仙亦不禁皱眉道：“今日之事，若与得意妃子有关，倒是的确可厌得很，但自从'万兽山庄'火焚之后，江湖中便一直未有她的消息，难道这孤独的女魔头，昔年也曾收下了衣钵传人么？”
谈话声中，乐声又急，那六个轻纱少女的舞姿，也随着乐声变得十分热烈，举手投足问，有意无意地露出一些神秘之处，眉目之间，更是荡意撩人，显见她们自己竟也被乐声所惑，而灯光却渐渐昏暗，暗林中又袅娜行出四个一样装束的少女，抬着一顶软杠三挽手、流苏盖顶、云铜镶窗的白藤小轿。
软轿轻停，轿帘微启，前面两个轻纱少女，撑开了两柄红竹小伞，一个身材婀娜，云鬓直挽，披着一件浅紫轻纱的少女，缓缓走下轿来，神情之间，仿佛绝美，却用一柄浅紫色的湘妃竹扇，遮住了娇靥，是以看不清面目。
南宫常恕微一变色，沉声道：“流苏小轿，浅紫轻纱，这正也是昔年'得意夫人'的行径，难道'得意夫人'又复重出江湖了么？”
鲁逸仙面色凝重，默然不语，突地大喝一声：“什么人？”转身望去，只见厅中黯淡的灯光下，高堆的木箱，已多了数条人影。
就在刹那之间，鼓声转急，灯光又亮，那身披浅紫轻纱的少女，微微扭动了一下虽被轻纱笼住，但却更是撩人的婀娜身躯，开始曼舞起来。
她这微微一扭，似乎便已胜过那些少女的诸般艳舞，竹扇轻移，娇靥半露，缓缓走上石阶。
另十个轻纱少女一排跟在她身后，亦自踏着舞步，走上石阶，素手轻挥，纱巾飞扬，竟一丝丝、一缕缕，剥去了那本已透明的轻
