Chapter 8 Chapter Eight

Thousands of people on the shore suddenly felt that their throats seemed to be stuffed into a huge boulder, pressing on their hearts, and it was difficult to breathe anymore. This deathly silence lasted for a long time, and then the exclamation burst out like an earth-shattering, nine out of ten girls on the five-color sailboat fell to the ground, crying bitterly, the little princess fainted on the spot, Fang Baoer's eyes widened and her mouth opened wide , also became dumbfounded. I saw the stone-like body of the man in white, riding the waves, floating towards the shore, leaving behind the sunset and the vast golden waves.

The sound of exclamation has disappeared in the depths of the sea and sky, and most of the heroes have bowed their heads sadly... At a suffocating moment, a figure rose slowly from the waves. Although his body was wet, his expression was still full of dignity and majesty, just like the sea god in ancient mythology. Appeared quietly in the Crystal Palace——this person was Zi Yihou. Qunhao's surprise and delight were even more important, the double surprise and excitement turned everyone into a fool, unable to speak or move. The man in white finally floated to the shore, but Hou Ziyi floated to the bow.The man in white had no expression on his face, his eyes were even colder, and he suddenly said in a deep voice, "Where is the boat?"

"Purple bearded dragon" Shou Tianqi was stunned for a moment, Fang Zi realized that this sentence was addressed to him, squeezed out from the crowd, and said: "It's right there." As the leader of the sea lords, he should be true to his words, so since he promised the men in white to compensate the ships, he should prepare the ships early regardless of whether the men in white will win or lose. The man in white looked along his fingers, and he saw a brand-new and sturdy ship parked more than ten feet away from the sea on the left. He only took a look, then turned around, facing the colorful brocade sails in the setting sun. Words slowly said: "Your Excellency's swordsmanship is indeed unparalleled in the world!"

Zi Yihou stood upright on the bow of the boat, with a respectful expression, and said: "Your Excellency's demeanor is a perfect example for warriors in the world, and I admire it the most." The man in white said: "When you win, you win; when you lose, you lose." Zi Yihou said: "Where are you going?" The man in white said: "Deep in the sky!" Zi Yihou said: "I dare not send it far away." The man in white said: "Yes!" When the two were talking, no one dared to make a sound. After a long while, the man in white said slowly: "Today's defeat will be unforgettable for the rest of my life. After seven years, I will come back again to cleanse my sword today." disgrace."

His voice suddenly stopped, his body flickered twice, and he skimmed onto the sea boat on the left like a ghost. Only then did Qunhao realize that it was Zi Yihou who defeated today, and couldn't help cheering anymore, and the cheering sound was even more earth-shattering. Everyone's faces turned red with joy and excitement. Some people cheered and grabbed the boats on the beach and rushed towards the colorful boats. Familiar with the nature of water, desperately trying to climb onto the small boat, the boat is light and there are many people, under the squeeze, the people on the boat also fall into the sea.

Cheers filled the sea, and the sea was full of heads, and the people were almost crazy, cheering like crazy! Fang Baoer looked at this moving scene, tears welled up in his eyes, and murmured: "Crazy... Crazy... Sure enough, there are some lunatics in the martial arts..." With a loud cry, she jumped up and put her arms around Shui Tianji's neck , Shouted: "Long live Zi Yihou!" He himself couldn't help becoming crazy, Shui Tianji was surprised and happy and laughed, kissed him on the face a few times, and said with a charming smile: "Cute little lunatic!"

Although the crazy crowd did not dare to climb onto the deck, some had climbed onto the side of the boat, some slapped the sea water, and some jumped onto the shoulders of their friends. Some people were enemies in the past, but now you are hooking my neck and I am holding your hand, but they are laughing wildly in unison, cheering in unison: "Long live Hou Ye, long live Zi Yihou..." The passionate laughter has long since passed away. Their old enmity was washed away. Just because this joy is shared by fellow martial artists all over the world, everyone in the group can share the taste of victory, and this victory is unprecedentedly great!

The girl on the five-color sailboat was even more ecstatic.Ling'er and Zhu'er took the lead, and brought out the baskets of fresh fruits, fine wines, delicacies and delicacies stored on the ship, and threw them over the side of the ship.Their slender hands are fluttering, and their brocade clothes are fluttering. They really look like celestial maidens scattering flowers. Tie Jindao squeezed into the crowd, blushing and shouted loudly: "I said earlier that Zi Yihou's swordsmanship is unparalleled in the world, how could he lose to that monster?" Another person said: "It's ridiculous that the monster is still not convinced, and it will come again after seven years."

Tie Jindao laughed wildly and said, "He will have a fart after seven years, and he will still be beaten by Lord Hou until he walks with his tail between his legs!" Qunhao laughed loudly and said, "Old Tie is right." Hu Buchou climbed up from the white sea, seeing this scene, although he felt very excited and happy in his heart, but he couldn't help feeling a little sad and melancholy. He turned his eyes to look, but Ziyihou Zhuo was standing on the bow of the boat, his pale face was devoid of the excitement that should be expected after victory, his complexion was heavy, it seemed that he was still far above Hu Buchou, it was just a group of heroes Under the excitement, no one noticed the abnormal expression on his face.

Someone shouted loudly, "Master Hou, please say a few words to us." Qunhao responded immediately: "That's right, Lord Hou, please say a few words..." Zi Yihou turned his eyes and slowly raised his hands. The group of heroes cheered again, Ling'er laughed and shouted: "Everyone, please be quiet? It's so noisy, but how do you ask our Lord Hou to talk?" She yelled several times in a row, and Qunhao Fang calmed down a little. Zi Yihou turned his eyes once again, and finally said slowly: "You guys are so kind, I am really ashamed, but..." Unexpectedly, after he opened his mouth to say a few words, he suddenly opened his mouth to spit out a mouthful of blood, and his handsome and straight body couldn't stand still.

Ling'er and Zhu'er exclaimed, rushing over to help him up, Qunhao also suddenly changed color, the joy on his face turned into horror in the blink of an eye. The girls gathered around together, calling out in alarm: "What's wrong, Master Hou?" A trace of misery appeared at the corner of Zi Yihou's mouth, and he said word by word: "The swordsmanship of the man in white is really astonishing. I have changed ninety-seven kinds of swordsmanship, and the last one was created by the ancient Dayu when he was controlling the water, and the martial arts has been lost. In the hundreds of years of 'Devil Demon Sword Art', he was lucky enough to defeat half of his strokes, and he still couldn't hurt him, but...but..." His voice was already very weak, and when he said this, he was even more out of breath. continue. Ling'er and Zhu'er were both anxious and concerned, they gently rubbed his back, the group of heroes looked at each other, the sea was blowing and the sea was dead silent again. Zi Yihou gasped for a while, then struggled and said: "But when I used these ninety-seven kinds of sword techniques, my real power has been exhausted too much. He has a heart attack, he... he is really a good guy, he knows that I am... not good enough, but he still admits that I have won half the move, otherwise... well, as long as he is a little bit cheeky and strikes again, I am afraid that I will win at this moment. I'm dead... dead in the sea!" Tie Jindao suddenly yelled loudly: "As the saying goes: 'If you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed'. After today, Lord Hou will be rich and honored, and his life will last forever." Qunhao cheered loudly: "That's right... well said!" But Zi Yihou showed another sad smile on his face, and said sadly: "Although everyone is good at singing and praying, I already know that it will be difficult to live until tomorrow morning. I... oh, let's go now, everyone, please go!" Whipping his sleeves and turning around , walked back to the cabin.Ling'er and the others have been with him for many years, until now, when they heard his first sigh and followed him with their heads bowed, they couldn't help crying miserably. Qunhao watched his figure disappear from the bow, feeling sad.No one would have imagined such a huge sacrifice after such a huge victory!Such great sorrow after such great joy! No one spoke anymore, and everyone returned to the shore in despondency, but no one wanted to leave the shore where they had experienced so much excitement, joy and sorrow. I don't know who it is, sat down on the beach first, and other people followed suit. It was dark, and the sandy beach with sea water was full. They didn't care about the wetness on their bodies, let alone the biting sea wind, they just sat and stared at the colorful sails on the sea. The setting sun finally set, and the vast golden waves turned into gray and ruthless sea water, and the brilliant five-color sails also lost their original brilliance. Although the sailboat that the man in white was on had long since disappeared into the depths of the sea and sky, no one doubted whether he would really come back after seven years. Everyone secretly thought at the same time: "Zi Yihou is dead, and when the man in white returns seven years later, who else can resist?" The beautiful and magnificent cabin in the past is now full of gloomy clouds and mist. The girls surrounded him in purple clothes, and the little princess knelt at his feet. Outside the cabin, dare not come in. There was no sound, only soft weeping. Zi Yihou closed his eyes, his face was also very miserable, he sighed frequently: "Seven years later...the day when the man in white comes back...Alas!" Ling'er wept and said: "Master Hou, please rest quietly, maybe the injury will get better, why should you be so sad about what will happen seven years later?" Zi Yihou suddenly opened his eyes and said sharply: "What is there to cherish about my life and death? How can I ignore my fellow martial artists in the world?" When Fang Baoer saw that he was dying, she couldn't forget the martial arts catastrophe that had nothing to do with him seven years later, and she didn't take the matter of her own life and death into her heart at all. What a great mind!Fang Baoer felt a rush of blood rushing to her heart, and said to herself: "This is a great hero who takes the world as his own responsibility! If I grow up to be like him, I will be worthy of being born a man." Ling'er also lowered her head, still couldn't help crying and said: "For someone who is not as good as him now, it's unknown if he can beat him after another seven years of martial arts practice, so why bother, Lord Hou..." Zi Yihou sighed and interrupted: "Looking at the heroes of the world, even if they practice martial arts for another seven years, no one can beat him. What's more, for a person who is so obsessed with martial arts, how can he enter the state if he practices martial arts for another seven years?" What other people can dream of? It's a pity that the eldest brother has already... Alas!" Sighed, he remained silent, but slightly frowned, as if he was thinking about something extremely difficult to solve.Everyone didn't dare to disturb him, and they all shed tears, only Fang Baoer's face was flushed, and her heart seemed to be full of excitement. Suddenly Zi Yihou shouted: "Yes!" Everyone was shocked, thinking that he had finally found a way to defeat the man in white, but Zi Yihou glanced around, but only said: "Who can play chess?" Ling'er was startled, and said: "We will all..." Zi Yihou smiled slightly and said: "Your chess moves are already in my chest, I can face you even without looking at the chessboard, how can I do that?" Hu Buchou respectfully said: "The kid has also learned it before." Zi Yihou said: "Okay, you will accompany me for a round." Although everyone didn't understand why he was still interested in playing chess at this moment, but seeing that he was in high spirits, they didn't dare to ask, so they set up the chessboard right away. Zi Yihou sat reclined on the couch, seemed to be extremely excited, and made moves very fast, Hu Buchou was respectful, standing in front of the couch, although his expression was respectful, but he did not give way in the chess moves. It's because he already guessed that Zi Yihou asked him to play chess with deep meaning, and he also has experience in chess, but within half an hour, there are too many moves in both moves. Zi Yihou sometimes smiled, sometimes frowned, sometimes seemed to be puzzled, sometimes seemed to understand deeply, just like his expression when he used to look at the incision of the dead branch. But his complexion became even paler, and his eyes became even more lifeless. When he reached the forty-ninth eye, he seemed to be in a deadlock. He frowned and thought hard for a long time, but he still hadn't settled down. His breathing became more and more rapid, and his body suddenly moved When he fell forward, the chessboard was knocked over, and the chess pieces fell down. Zi Yihou seemed very anxious, and said: "It's a pity, what should I do?" Hu Buchou said: "It's no problem!" Without making a sound, he picked up all the chess pieces and put them on the board one by one, the position of each chess piece is exactly the same as before. Seeing that his appearance was not surprising, the girls couldn't help showing surprise on their faces at this moment, no one would have thought that he had such an amazing power of memory. Although there was surprise and appreciation in Zi Yihou's eyes, he only took one look at him, and immediately focused on the chess game, holding a chess piece in his hand, but he still couldn't put it down. Hu Buchou couldn't help feeling strange in his heart, because this chess move was originally very simple, he really couldn't figure out how such a master Zi Yihou could be hesitant. Suddenly Zi Yihou let out a long sigh, stretched out his hand to shake the chessboard, and sighed: "After thinking hard, I only felt that the white-clothed swordsmanship was similar to the way of chess in some ways, so I wanted to see through the secrets of his swordsmanship while playing chess. Two, alas! If I can live another thirty or fifty days, maybe I will be able to see this secret, but right now I think it is absolutely impossible to see through this secret in just three or two hours. " Fang Bao'er thought to herself bitterly: "God is really unfair, but let useful people die and useless people live in this world! Well, if I can die for him, that would be great." After a while, Zi Yihou looked at Hu Buchou and said slowly: "But this game of chess is not useless in the end, let me know that you have such amazing memory power. How can you be drowned if you are so talented?" He took out a strange-shaped key from his arms, and said in a deep voice: "I have hidden sword books of one hundred and ninety-three secret gates in the world in my study, and only this key can open the door of the study, so take it!" Hu Buchou said in astonishment: "Little... how dare you take the responsibility?" Zi Yihou said: "This key is indeed something people in the martial arts dream of, and now I pass it on to you, because you are the only one who can memorize all the sword records." Hu Buchou was both surprised and happy, and didn't know what to say, so she prostrated herself on the ground and took it with both hands, only to feel that although the key is small, its weight is as heavy as Mount Tai. Zi Yihou looked up to the sky and sighed, and said sadly: "It's just that even though you have learned all the sword skills in the world, you are still no match for the man in white!" Fang Baoer suddenly said loudly: "Since no one else is his opponent, let me be his opponent. If he comes back seven years later, I will beat him away!" Zi Yihou was slightly surprised and amused, and said, "You? Do you know martial arts?" Fang Baoer shook his head and said, "No." Zi Yihou's eyes flickered and said: "You don't know martial arts, how can you be his opponent?" Fang Baoer puffed out her small chest and said loudly: "Although I don't know martial arts and I don't want to learn martial arts, no one else can do this. Of course I am the only one who can do it." He spoke sonorously, without any doubts, and although his small face still looked childish, there was already an awe-inspiring look on his face, "I will not go to hell, who will go to hell?" The spirit of such heroes and eminent monks who sacrifice their lives for righteousness is called No one dared to underestimate him because of his young age. Zi Yihou stared at him for a while, then slowly said: "What can you do that thousands of famous heroes in the world can't do?" Fang Bao'er said: "As long as you are sincere, gold and stone are the same. I think the swordsman in white is also a human being, and I am also a human being. Why do you say that I must not be able to defeat him?" Zi Yihou's eyes were even more gentle, but his expression suddenly became severe, and he said sharply: "Have you learned to bully others at such a young age?" With a backhand palm, he hit him. Although he was seriously injured, how could Fang Baoer dodge this palm strike?He was beaten and fell to the ground.Everyone looked at it with pity and surprise, and they couldn't help but change their faces, because everyone had already had a good impression of Fang Bao'er.Hu Buchou has the deepest relationship with Bao'er, but at this moment, his expression does not change, and he seems to be a little happy.Shui Tianji had already changed color, but after glancing at Hu Buchou, she also showed joy on her face. I saw Fang Bao'er turned over and sat up, her face didn't change color at all.Zi Yihou looked at him and said coldly: "I am beating you, are you convinced?" Fang Baoer said: "Not convinced!" Zi Yihou said: "You want to slap me back, but you dare not do it?" Fang Baoer said: "It's not that I don't dare to hit you, but I can't and can't bear to hit you. Just because you are older than me and you are a hero praised by thousands of people, I respect you three points, and you are currently ill. , I will give you five points again, you slap me, although I am not convinced, I have no choice but to admit it." He has no fear on his face, and he speaks frankly that Ling'er, Zhu'er and some other young girls have been fascinated by it, because they have followed Zi Yihou for many years, but they have never seen anyone dare to speak to Zi Yihou like this. Zi Yihou's face was deep, and he said: "These are just your excuses, in fact, you are neither unable nor unbearable, but dare not!" Fang Baoer suddenly smiled and said, "What you said is also a bit good. I neither can't nor can't bear it, it's just that I don't want to." Zi Yihou said: "What are you talking about?" Fang Baoer laughed and said, "Although your face is fierce, your eyes are not fierce. You hit me just now, but you didn't really want to hit me. You just wanted to try me." Zi Yihou looked at him for a while, and suddenly laughed loudly: "Good boy... good..." He was really seriously injured, he laughed a few times, and coughed continuously, but as soon as the cough stopped, he continued: "You can distinguish right from wrong, and never act rashly, which can be regarded as 'wisdom'; You can be called 'benevolence'; you are not afraid of danger, and you are generous in facing difficulties, which can be called 'courage'. A child like you who possesses wisdom, benevolence, and courage, I have only seen you in my life." Fang Baoer thought secretly: "You are at sea all year round, so naturally you won't be able to see him." But when someone scolded him, he could speak with his chest up, but at the moment when someone praised him, he was speechless, even blushing. Hu Buchou and Shui Tianji looked at each other, Shui Tianji thought secretly: "This big head is really calm, if I didn't see his expression just now, I thought Zi Yihou was really angry with Bao'er." Shui Tianji kept glancing at Hu Buchou from the corner of her eyes, but Hu Buchou had already turned her gaze away, and she just thought to herself: "This elf has been glancing at me from the corner of her eyes, what is she thinking? Could it be that she can only guess when she sees us?" Seeing Zi Yihou's intentions, you have admiration for me?" Thinking of this, a smile couldn't help showing on his lips, but Shui Tianji saw him smiling, and suddenly cursed in a low voice: "Big head!" Naturally, no one else could hear this sentence, but Hu Buchou rolled his eyes when he heard it. After a while, Zi Yihou Fang Zi said slowly: "Others see me drifting on the sea all year round, they just think that I must be tired of the world of mortals, in fact, there are many things we miss in the world of mortals. The reason why I am drifting on the sea is because I have failed in the past. Under the sword of one man, I will never set foot on land." Some of the crowd had heard him say it once, but they hadn't paid attention to it at that time, but now hearing the words, they couldn't help feeling a little bit of joy in their hearts. It's because if that person can defeat the prince in purple, he can also defeat the man in white. Only Zi Yihou continued: "That man is my senior brother. He studied in the same discipline as me when he was young. Others think that my swordsmanship is unparalleled. In fact, his swordsmanship is the best in the world!" Hu Buchou was still taciturn at first, but at this moment she couldn't help interjecting: "Although my disciple is ignorant, but judging by Lord Hou's sword technique, it has integrated the essence of sword techniques from all schools in the world. , even the white-clothed swordsman is only able to gain some advantage with his internal strength because he has trained his whole body to be like steel inside and out, and he is definitely not as good as Lord Hou in terms of swordsmanship." Zi Yihou sighed: "That's right, in the whole world, I have memorized all the subtleties of the swordsmanship of all sects and sects, but my senior brother is even better than me!" Hu Buchou wondered: "The boy dares to ask for advice, how can he beat Lord Hou?" Zi Yihou said: "Although I memorize all the sword arts in the world, my senior brother can also remember everything, but he can forget all of them after memorizing, but I absolutely can't, even if I try my best , but don’t forget any of them.” Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, puzzled, even Hu Buchou was stunned for a moment, but immediately smiled, as if he understood deeply. He knows that it is not very difficult to remember something firmly, but if you want to forget something that is firmly in your heart forever, it is really as difficult as climbing the sky! Just because there are some things you don't want to think about, and you shouldn't think about them, but these things just want to linger in your heart.Some things you wanted to forget earlier, but these things just linger in your heart, even in your dreams. If people can forget those sad things at any time, the world really does not know how much joy will be added. Naturally, the young girls couldn't comprehend this kind of profound and subtle philosophy, but secretly wondered: "Since he has forgotten all about his sword skills, how can he still win with his sword skills?" Zi Yihou said: "After that senior brother of mine forgot all the sword skills, Fang Zi realized the 'Sword Intent' completely. He actually put all his mind into the sword, controlled the sword with his mind, and did whatever he wanted. Although there is no fixed move, But when he waved it with his hands, all of them were extremely ingenious. It is also because his swordsmanship is not limited to a certain form, so people don't know how to resist it. Although I can use swordsmanship all over the world, but What I have obtained is only the skeleton of the sword art, but what he has obtained is the soul of the sword art. Although my sword art is said to be unparalleled in the world, compared to his, it is really inferior to dirt!" He finished speaking in one breath, only to hear that everyone was stunned, fascinated, opened their mouths wide, but couldn't breathe. After a long time, Hu Buchou let out a long sigh.Hearing this unheard-of wonderful truth of the way of swordsmanship, he felt his thoughts surging, he seemed to have a lot to say, but he couldn't utter a single word. Just thinking about it, Fang Baoer sighed directly: "It is said that the ancient sword fairy's theory of 'body and sword unite' is nothing more than that." The small face was full of excitement, and it seemed that he had understood more than Hu Buchou. Zi Yihou's eyes were full of approval, and he said: "I don't think you know a lot at such a young age. Controlling the sword with your mind can indeed achieve the beauty of 'unifying body and sword'. But flying swords flying in the air, taking people The head is thousands of miles away, but it is far-fetched nonsense." Fang Baoer said: "Since that's the case, why don't you invite him to fight the man in white?" Zi Yihou sighed: "My senior brother is quiet and inaction, he never competes with others. More than ten years ago, I tried every means to force him to fight me. He wanted to beat me hard, so that I would not pester me any more, but he was still afraid of hurting me, so he didn't put his true strength into the sword, but...but at that time I was too aggressive to win, and after losing a move Wanting to save some face with real strength, my senior brother...he...he was hurt by me unexpectedly, but he was afraid that I would be sad, so he still supported himself strongly, without showing any signs of expression, smiling and saying goodbye to me go……" This incident was obviously a pain in his heart, and when he talked about it intermittently, his face was pale, his eyes were filled with tears, and it was difficult for him to continue speaking. Hu Buchou knew that if he fully expressed the guilt in his heart before he left, his heart would be at peace, so he asked respectfully: "I don't know what will happen next?" Zi Yihou said sadly: "Later... on the way home, my senior brother unexpectedly met the only enemy in his life. At that time, he suffered internal injuries, and his whole body's strength was gone. He was no match for others. After fighting hard, although he Frightened the opponent back with unparalleled swordsmanship, but was tricked by someone else, and poisoned himself after running several miles away. My senior brother is really a peerless genius. Under such circumstances, he still managed to remove the poison, but ...But although his life is still preserved, all his martial arts have been dissipated since then, and although he has mastered the peerless swordsmanship, he has never been able to use it." This story can be said to be very ordinary and simple. It may have happened thousands of times in the rivers and lakes, and it is neither tortuous nor bizarre. The clouds and mist are filled with sorrow, this simple and ordinary story is suddenly full of mysterious and moving charm when it is told by such an earth-shattering character as Zi Yihou! Everyone's hearts were heavy when they heard it, and they wished they could burst into tears immediately. The little princess suddenly said: "Is that the uncle who taught me how to arrange flowers that Father is talking about?" Zi Yihou nodded, and said: "That's right. Although he did this because of me, he never held any grudges against me. He is smart to see you, but wants to teach you the unparalleled swordsmanship. Although he taught you flower arrangement, In fact, the way of swordsmanship is hidden in the way of flowers. You must know that the way of calligraphy, flower way, tea ceremony, and chess way are all the essence of the wisdom of our ancestors. Since the Han Dynasty, talents have been produced from generation to generation. Recently, I heard that although there are people on Dongying Island who have studied this way , it’s just superficial, and it’s hard to compare with my descendants of Chinese descent.” He paused for a while, panted for a while, and then continued: "After my senior martial arts disappeared, he could only live in seclusion and study in peace, and he discovered that the most important principles in the way of flowers and chess are actually almost the same as the way of swordsmanship. I hope you can understand it too, but who would have thought... Sigh! Although you are smart, you are too competitive, and your mind is not open enough, so you are not a person of this way, and your uncle left disappointed." The little princess kept her mouth shut for a long time and sulked for a long time, and finally couldn't help saying: "I really don't believe that there are others who can learn things that I can't even learn!" Zi Yihou smiled and said nothing, but his eyes were already on Fang Baoer. The little princess opened her eyes wide and said, "Daddy, do you think it's him?" Zi Yihou said: "Yes!" The little princess said: "He can learn what I can't learn?" Zi Yihou said: "Do you think you are smarter than others?" The little princess said: "Of course, I am smarter than him." Zi Yihou smiled slightly and said, "Do you know what is small cleverness and what is great wisdom?" The little princess said: "Of course I know." Zi Yihou said: "Let's talk and listen." The little princess said: "Small cleverness is... that is... um... Daddy, you are always embarrassing others. Such words can only be experienced but cannot be expressed in words. How can others explain it?" Zi Yihou smiled and said: "That's right, it's really difficult to explain this kind of words clearly, but now it only needs two sentences to explain clearly." The little princess said: "Well... people don't always understand what Daddy said." Zi Yihou said: "You have little cleverness, but Bao'er has great wisdom, so he can learn it, but you can't. Do you understand now?" The little princess was stunned for a moment, and stared at Fang Baoer fiercely for half a cup of tea, then suddenly shouted: "What are you so proud of? One day, I will be better than you, remember!" Stamping her little feet, she turned around body, ran to the corner of the room, his shoulders kept twitching, but he never cried out. Fang Baoer was also startled, and said in a low voice, "Crying...why are you crying...you are better than me..." He wanted to walk over, but stopped again. Zi Yihou said: "Don't pay attention to her, come here." Fang Bao'er walked over blankly and lowered her head. Zi Yihou stroked his hair, and after a while, he said softly: "When the matter is over, you should go to my senior brother as soon as possible, you understand?" Fang Baoer said: "I know." Zi Yihou took out a bag from his bosom, and said: "This is left by my brother, and his hiding place is written in the bag. Over the years, in order to avoid revenge, he never told anyone about his hiding place. , Although I left this kit, I was only allowed to send one person to find him when I needed it the most. He repeatedly ordered only one person, so I didn’t even read it myself.” Zi Yihou continued: "My senior brother is weird, there must be some weird tricks in this kit, alas! Whether you can find him or not is unknown." Fang Baoer suddenly raised her head and said loudly, "Since I said I would do it, I must do it. No matter where he is, I must find him." Zi Yihou said: "The place may be far away in the world, you have to go alone, you are young, and you don't know martial arts, it is thousands of miles away, are you afraid?" Fang Baoer widened her eyes and said, "Even if I'm afraid, I still have to go. I don't know how many things I'm afraid of in my life, but I'm most afraid of doing those things." Zi Yihou smiled, and said: "My good boy, this is the true nature of a hero. If you never know fear, you are just an idiot or a reckless man, not a hero." Although this kind of remark sounds difficult to understand, it actually makes a lot of sense. Hu Buchou went back and forth, carefully chewing the taste of these two sentences, and felt crazy. Zi Yihou looked up to the sky with a long sigh, and said: "Finally everything has been explained, no matter whether I am alive or dead, I can feel at ease. In front of these people, gods and ghosts also bow their heads!" The girls had no choice but to fetch the wine, only drooping their heads and weeping. Zi Yihou poured himself a drink, drank several cups, a strange red color gradually appeared on his pale face, and he murmured: "The hero of the world...ends like this, alas, God's will...God's will..." Suddenly he shouted: " Duh!" Yang Tian laughed wildly, "I've fought thousands of battles with people big and small all my life. It's thrilling. I've lived for a hundred years, but I'm bound to die. How can I die in the hands of such an opponent? Haha... idiot... idiot..." Amid wild laughter, he struggled to get up, staggered and ran towards the secret room behind the cabin, Ling'er and Zhu'er called softly, and rushed over to help him. Zi Yihou flicked his sleeves and said, "I'll come and go, who wants you to come with me?" Ling'er and Zhu'er bowed their heads and stopped. Zi Yihou looked up at the window and laughed wildly: "Life... life! Haha... idiot, idiot..." He rushed into the treasure room with a flick of his sleeves, slammed the door and never opened it again. Hearing the maniacal laughter in the room was very high-pitched at first, then gradually became low, and finally could not be heard anymore, this generation of chivalrous men walked away from the maniacal laughter.The mediocre people are always struggling in the world of mortals, but in the eyes of this generation of heroes, they are just a bunch of idiots. At this time, dawn had appeared in the east, and there was life on the sea again, but there was no life in the cabin.The extreme sadness caused everyone to forget to cry bitterly, and just continued to cry softly in a daze. A gust of wind came over, and the golden bells on Jing'er's earrings jingled.But the ringtone, which sounds so pleasant on weekdays, now sounds like a melody full of sadness. After an unknown amount of time, Ling'er suddenly turned around and walked to the bow.The tears on her face were dry, and she looked so serious and holy in an instant, her crystal eyes fixed on the group of heroes on the bank, and she did not move for a long time. Dawn on the sea comes first. Qunhao looked at the dawn, feeling even more sad!The biting sea breeze blew on them, and they didn't feel the cold, but they couldn't help shivering. Suddenly seeing Ling'er walking on the bow of the boat, the blue sky and the sea set off her beautiful figure in white clothes so extraordinary that Qunhao didn't even dare to look up, and could not help lowering her head. Ling'er glanced around, and slowly said word by word: "Master Hou...has... gone...!" With a backhand flicking her hair, she suddenly swayed and fell down. These five words floated across the white sea and were heard by the crowd, but the crowd felt their bodies trembling, they were already insane, no one even saw Ling'er fall. I don't know who was the first to kneel down, but the others immediately followed and filled the floor. The waves crashed on the shore, the wind roared, and a burst of singing came over, singing: "Double sword strikes like wind and cloud, dragon chant is absolutely amazing... the superstar falls..." Although the lyrics are simple, they are full of a tragic and desolate meaning. The singing voice is even more simple and pure. The group of heroes listened obsessively. Who doesn't shed tears? He sang it over and over three times, and Qunhao couldn't help but sang along with it, and the heaven and earth were filled with this tragic song in an instant. A man in ragged clothes with disheveled hair and bare feet squeezed out from the crowd and walked to the seaside singing loudly. It was Wang Banxia. The waves were like mountains, surging and surging, rolling up layers of silvery white spray in front of him.As soon as the sun rose, it was covered by dark clouds, and the sky weighed heavily on the sea. The sea and the sky are dark, and it seems that they have suddenly turned into infinite vitality.Tears welled up in Wang Banxia's eyes, and he murmured: "Heaven doesn't favor you, why should you mourn over his death?" Suddenly a hand tightly grasped Wang Banxia's arm, the weight of the hand and the hardness of the five fingers almost crushed Wang Banxia's elbow. Wang Banxia frowned and looked around, only to see a traveling monk wearing a gray cassock and a wide-brimmed bamboo hat standing next to him. The monk's face was covered all over, but Wang Banxia saw his wood-brown face, knife-sharpened cheeks, and lips that were tightly closed into a line at a glance, and he didn't need to take a second look to know that this person was Mu Langjun. Just listen to Mu Langjun's deep voice: "Did you forget the promise to take the medicine?" Wang Banxia said: "Never." Mr. Mu Lang said: "Bring the medicine." Wang Banxia said: "There is no medicine." Mu Langjun closed his lips even tighter, and said angrily: "Could it be that you want to break your promise?" Wang Banxia said: "Zi Yihou is dead, where can I go for medicine?" Mu Lang Jundao: "Zi Yihou has entrusted Ling'er and Zhu'er with the funeral, you go and ask Ling'er and Zhu'er for the medicine, otherwise..." Wang Banxia cut off coldly: "Otherwise what? I just promised you to ask Zi Yihou for medicine, but did I promise you to ask Ling'er for medicine?" Mu Langjun was stunned for a while, and said: "This... this..." Wang Banxia said: "Since Zi Yihou is dead, I can't ask him for the antidote. I didn't promise you to ask Ling'er for the medicine, so I don't need to ask her for the medicine." Mr. Mu Lang was anxious and angry, but he had no choice but to stay there, unable to move any more. After the meal time, no one moved in the cabin of the five-color sailboat. But hearing the sound of crying getting louder and louder, "Purple Bearded Dragon" Shou Tianqi had already turned his back and faced the sea, because he was the leader of the sea heroes, he couldn't cry in front of others, but those tears It just came out of his eyes involuntarily, he had to turn his back so that no one could see his face. The little princess had already flung herself down in front of the closed door of the back room, crying bitterly: "Father, you... how could you leave me alone and leave?" Fang Baoer lowered her head and dared not look at her.Shui Tianji supported Bao'er's shoulders, her slender fingers trembled, and crystal clear tears kept falling. Suddenly, a terrible cry came from the shore, shouting: "Hu Buchou... Hu Buchou..." It sounded like a ghost haunting his soul. Shui Tianji listened, and suddenly asked: "Who?" Hu Buchou said: "You have already heard it, why are you asking?" 水天姬道:“木郎君唤你做什么?” 胡不愁道:“他要我守约。” 水天姬道:“你与他约好了什么?” 胡不愁道:“我与他约好了要将你毒死。” 水天姬身子一震,睁大了眼睛,说不出话来。 木郎君那惨厉的呼声又起:“今晚子夜……子时……” 胡不愁缓缓道:“他要我今晚子时毒死你。” 水天姬突然回眸一笑,道:“你毒得死么?” 胡不愁道:“乘你不备时,要毒死你实是易如反掌。” 水天姬嫣然笑道:“但我此刻已知道你要毒死我,怎能不防备?说不定还要想个法子先毒死你,免得被你毒死。” 胡不愁微微一笑道:“不错,先下手为强,正该如此。” 两人四日相视,眼珠子转来转去,心里也不知在打什么主意。 这两人俱是玲珑剔透的七巧心肝,要猜别人心思,实是容易得很,但别人要猜他们的心思,却难如登天。 这时天上阴霾更重,竟簌簌藩下雨来。 雨势渐大,岸上群雄方自干透的衣衫又被淋得水湿,却仍是无一人退下避雨,目光依旧痴痴地望着五色帆。 这五色锦帆昔日本代表一种无上的权威,如今,这权威的来源——紫衣侯虽已死去,但五色帆在人们心目中的地位却变得更是光荣。 船舱中方宝儿瞧着胡不愁与水天姬的神情,心里越来越是担心。铃儿轻轻问他:“你担心什么?” 方宝儿叹道:“你瞧他们两人,我怕……” 铃儿道:“傻孩子,胡不愁若真想毒死她,怎会说给她听?这道理连我都可猜出,她怎会猜不出?” 方宝儿摇头叹道:“这道理虽然简单,用在别人身上都行得通,但那大头叔叔和她却都是怪人……” 突听舱外有人朗声道:“洛阳彭清,有事禀告!” 铃儿拭干泪痕,当先迎出,道:“什么事?” 只见雨中一艘轻舟驶来,“摘星手”彭清卓立船头,恭声道:“紫衣侯魂归极乐,凡我江湖中人,莫不哀痛欲绝,直到此刻还在岸上,以示悲悼,但众人悲痛之下,心神都已有些失常,久聚岸上,只怕有变。”语声微顿,躬身道:“在下出言直率,望姑娘莫见怪。” 铃儿叹道:“难为你想得这般周到,我怎会怪你,但……但朋友们如此情况,我劝也劝不走的。” 彭清道:“姑娘若是将船驶出此湾,停泊别处,群豪想必也就会散去了。在下一得之愚,不知可蒙姑娘采纳?” 铃儿沉吟半晌,道:“这果然是好法子……” 彭清道:“由此北行不远,便有个小小港湾,可以避风。” 铃儿叹道:“久闻洛阳摘星手之名,果然是位处处为别人着想的英雄,贱妾实是感激得很。” 彭清躬身道:“不敢当。”微一挥手,轻舟驶回。 王半侠虽立在岸边,但并未注意,目光只是瞪着木郎君,沉声道:“你还不放开手?” 木郎君也狠狠瞪着他,半晌终于缓缓放开手掌,厉声道:“本座并非怕你,只是被你言语套上,将你无可奈何。” 王半侠道:“瞧你不出,倒是条说一句算一句的汉子。” 木郎君道:“哼……哼哼!” 王半侠道:“如此,我倒要劝劝你,多一事不如少一事。今日子夜,千万莫妄动,否则凭船上那几位姑娘,无论哪一个都已足够将你打下船来。” 木郎君道:“放屁!”转过身子就走,再也不瞧王半侠一眼。 王半侠瞧着他背影只是摇头。突有几个身背麻袋的丐帮弟子自人丛中挤来,神色匆匆,满面俱是惶急之容。 其中一人抢步走到王半侠身侧,躬身一礼,道:“帮主有难,昨夜……”他语声越说越低,谁也听不清他说的什么。 只见王半侠面容骤变,瞧了瞧五色帆,又垂首沉吟半晌,终于顿了顿足,随着那几个丐帮弟子走了。 这时五色帆船庞大的船身已开始移动,向北驶去。 群豪一阵骚动,有的顿足,有的叹息。木郎君远远立在雨中,目光凝注着船影,冷冷道:“你走不了的……”
