Chapter 15 Chapter 15 Martial arts follow nature

Bao'er saw two large boats without awning going up the river, and more than a hundred men on board were beggars with disheveled quail clothes all over their bodies. In the past, Bao'er saw three beggars in the valley who were greedy for unreasonable wealth and fled in embarrassment after being frightened by Mr. Mu Lang. At first, he thought that the gang of beggars was full of people who were greedy for money and afraid of death, but then saw the chariot that did what was right. Only then did I know that no matter in any gang, good and bad are inevitable, seeing these hundreds of beggars leaving in such a hurry, I couldn't help muttering to myself: "Could it be that something happened to the beggar gang?"

Only one person behind him said: "That's right, something must happen in the Beggar Clan. Do you want to go and have a look?" With an old accent, it was Zhou Fang. Although Bao'er doesn't understand martial arts, but his eyes and ears are extremely sensitive since he was a child, seeing Zhou Fang coming behind him without a sound, he couldn't help being surprised. But seeing Zhou Fang looking up at the sky, Nian Xu smiled and said: "The disciples of the Beggar Clan are wandering all over the world on weekdays, and they are the most well-informed. If anyone wants to find someone, it would be best to ask them."

His words seemed to be talking to himself, but every word was in Bao'er's heart, and Bao'er was secretly surprised, and forced a smile: "Old man, do you want to go and have a look too?" Zhou Fang said with a smile: "My old man wanders the world, watching all the excitement." With a thought in his mind, Bao'er suddenly felt blessed, and said, "I'll follow your old man." Zhou Fang smiled slightly and said, "Can you bear the pain of wandering?" Without hesitation, Bao'er said loudly, "I can bear it." Suddenly, a voice sighed and said: "I can't take it... I can't take it..." Niu Tiewa frowned, sighed, and walked in slowly from outside the forest.

Zhou Fang laughed and said, "What can't you bear?" Tie Wa said with a bitter face: "I have never left that little girl surnamed Jiang for a moment, but...but she has never looked at me." Zhou Fang laughed and said: "She is naked and hugged by you, so she is naturally ashamed of you. The more she ignores you, the more she shows that she is really interested in you. If she doesn't care and still talks and laughs with you, then You really can't stand it!" Tie Wa's eyes widened, and she said, "Are women's minds really so strange?" Zhou Fangdao: "The strangest thing in the world is a woman's heart."

Tie Wa stayed for a long time, then sighed to herself: "But I just looked at no one, and I gently pulled her sleeves, but she still didn't look at me, she just looked up to the sky and said to herself, saying: "Tomorrow, the water will flow. Long, a man should be self-improvement, if he is not a hero, he will never want to wear red makeup." Although I remember these few words, I don't understand the meaning at all." Bao'er smiled secretly: "Although Jiang Feng seems to be a heroine, he still has a bit of a shy girlish attitude after all. He can say a word, but he wants to write poems and sentences. He only hates a brash man like Tie Wa. But I don't understand the matter of these talented scholars and beautiful women at all, so I told people this line."

Zhou Fang smiled and said: "Very good, it seems that this woman's heart has been really touched by you. The four sentences she read are telling you that the future will be long, so don't worry, as long as you can do it Make a heroic career, she is yours after all, but if you are not a hero, you are not worthy of her." Tie Wa cheered and jumped three feet for joy, but then she frowned again, and said: "How to be a hero, old man, will you teach me?" Zhou Fang smiled and said, "If you want to be a hero, just follow me and your elder brother for now!" Suddenly another voice sighed and said: "Let's go! Let's go! It's better to go." Niu Tiexiong also walked in with a sad face.

Zhou Fang smiled and said, "Why are you so troubled?" Niu Tiexiong sighed: "My wife still wants me to sleep on the ground. As soon as I got into bed, she kicked me off. The trick you taught me, old man, doesn't work anymore." Zhou Fang laughed and said, "Okay, I'll teach you how to use both hands again." Pulling Niu Tiexiong aside, he gesticulated and compared a few more moves. Niu Tiexiong was not slow to learn, Zhou Fang smiled and said: "Okay, okay, my old man has to teach you a way, so that your wife will always follow you obediently." Niu Tiexiong was overjoyed and said, "Is there really such a way? Father, tell me!"

Zhou Fangdao: "The law is not passed on to the six ears, so you come here with your ears." As expected, Niu Tiexiong went over to him, and after listening for a while, his face suddenly turned red, and he chuckled and said, "This...isn't this a bit embarrassing?" Zhou Fangdao: "You two are husband and wife, what's there to be ashamed of? Hurry up! Hurry up! Go and act according to plan." Niu Tiexiong cheered and ran away like flying. Baoer and Tiewa you look at me, I look at you, no one knows what trick Zhou Fang is talking about. In the early morning of the second day, both Bao'er and Tie Wa were secretly watching the actions of Niu Ersao, and saw her serving tea and boiling water, and suddenly became the daughter-in-law of the Niu family obediently. , seemed to be full of shyness, and seemed a little coquettish and weak between actions.

Looking at Niu Tiexiong again, his chest is sticking out, his belly is protruding, he is complacent, and from time to time he rubs his chin and laughs foolishly.Tie Wa couldn't help asking him quietly: "What method did Mr. Zhou teach you?" Unexpectedly, Niu Tiexiong shook his head desperately and said, "I can never tell you this way." He laughed loudly and ran away. When Zhou Fang, Bao'er, and Tie Wa bid farewell to everyone, there was a lot of retention, exhortations, and tears... The sentiment of parting has never been different throughout the ages. But the three of them finally boarded the boat, and they still took Tie Wa's "Ark".

The ark left the shore, and the figures on the shore gradually blurred, and Tie Wa suddenly laughed foolishly.Bao'er said: "Others are full of parting feelings, why are you laughing?" Tie Wa smirked and said: "She finally took a look at me... she sneaked a look at me after I got on the boat. Although it was just a look, it was much better than words." Although his words were crude, what he said contained the most true and spiritual affection in the world, Bao'er smiled and said: "Such deep affection, I don't think you can understand it." Zhou Fang suddenly said: "You two must remember that on this journey, you two must use your eyes more and your mouth less, and you must not move your hands and feet at will."

Bao'er laughed and said, "I'm not blind. When I'm not sleeping, I use my eyes the most." Zhou Fangdao: "It is also seen with the eyes, but the way of seeing is quite different. If you turn a blind eye, you are no different from a blind man." After a slight pause, he said again: "Have you ever seen running water?" Bao'er laughed and said, "Of course I've seen it." Zhou Fang said slowly: "Yes, you have seen the flowing water more than a thousand times, but I want to ask you, what is the philosophy of the flowing water? What's so interesting? Can you answer it?" Bao'er was taken aback for a moment, and said, "This..." Zhou Fang smiled and said: "That's it. There are many things in the world that are like flowing water. Although you have seen it, you have turned a blind eye. Naturally, you can't see the beauty of it." Bao'er said with shame: "The old man is right." Zhou Fang said: "At this moment, I want you to watch the flowing water quietly for three hours. What can you see, I will ask you after three hours." Bao'er said: "Yes." Looking down, he saw the torrential river rushing past the sides of the ship, stirring up a series of white foam. Three hours later, the ark had traveled several miles up the river. Zhou Fangdao: "I'll ask you again what is the mystery of the running water, can you answer it?" Bao'er sighed for a long time, and said slowly: "I used to think of flowing water as flowing water, nothing else, but now I know that this river of flowing water, in the eyes of poets, is a wonderful poem, and in the eyes of refined scholars In my eyes, it is a wonderful music song." Zhou Fang said coldly: "In the eyes of a martial arts master, it becomes a set of continuous and impeccable martial arts. Have you never thought of this?" Bao'er was suddenly overjoyed and said: "That's right, this running water contains the supreme principles of martial arts. If you look at the waves in the river, at first glance, they are all the same, but if you look closely, you can find that the waves are different from each other. They are actually very different, and the changes are so subtle and complex that they are really mysterious. This... This is somewhat similar to the sword technique of the man in white. Every time he stabs with the sword, it looks the same, but it is completely different... ..." The more he said, the more excited he became, his big eyes were filled with the light of wisdom, the light was shining, making it impossible to look at. Zhou also showed a slight smile of relief, and said with a twisted beard, "That's right. Let me ask you again, can you cut off the flowing water with one knife?" Bao'er said: "Putting out the knife cuts off the water and makes the water flow more, cut continuously." Zhou Fang laughed and said: "Don't say that one knife can't cut it off, even ten thousand swords can't cut it off. Do you know the reason for this?" Bao'er was stunned, and said: "This... this..." His eyes sparkled for a while, and he suddenly exclaimed with joy: "I know, this is only because there is a kind of endless opportunity in the flowing water, it is definitely not any It can be cut off by strength. If someone's martial arts are like flowing water, he will be invincible in the world." Zhou Fang's expression was even more gratified, but he said solemnly: "By the way, the four characters of endless life are the greatest blessing bestowed by God on the world. Of course, you can learn from the changes of the stars, the prosperity and withering of vegetation, The continuous flow of water, the movement of the sun and the moon, the principle of endless life can be seen in these things, but in the most profound essence of martial arts, there must also be the mystery of endless life. Cause and effect, you should also know from this that this natural phenomenon is really the master of the most extensive and profound martial arts in the world." Naturally, Tie Wa didn't understand such profound and profound philosophies, she just stared at her with wide-eyed eyes, but seeing Bao'er sitting silently on the bow with a smile on her face, she seemed to understand it quite well. Suddenly, I heard the sound of a piano coming from the river.Zhou Fangdao: "Swing the boat quietly to the place where the sound of the zither is coming from." Tie Wa obeyed.As the boat sails, the sound of the piano becomes more and more pleasant, harmonizing with the breeze on the river, it is even more vivid and ethereal. Unknowingly, Bao'er became obsessed with listening, and suddenly heard Zhou Fang say: "You have listened to this piano sound for a long time, but what can you hear from it?" There was a pause in the voice, but seeing Bao'er shaking his head in a daze, he continued: "There is a faint sound of killing and attacking between the rhymes of the piano. It seems that the people who play the piano are about to have a vicious fight, so that they can use the act of playing the piano to calm down. My heart is excited before the battle, it is exactly: the sound is clanging, and the ambition is in the sword." Bao'er was fascinated when he heard it, and sighed a long time: "If the old man doesn't have a good understanding of the rhythm, how can he be the bosom friend of the piano player?" Zhou Fang frowned, and said in a deep voice: "The sound of killing and cutting in the sound of the piano is getting louder and louder. It is obvious that the player's mood is not calm, but even more agitated. It will collapse, and if you fight against others, you will definitely lose and never win!" Bao'er said: "Since that's the case, why doesn't he stop?" Zhou Fang sighed: "At this moment, his heart is galloping like a galloping horse, and he can no longer control himself." Bao'er said: "This... so what should I do?" Zhou Fang pondered and said: "This person is an elegant scholar, why don't you and I help him and break his piano sound?" He took a wooden stick and handed it to Bao'er, and said: "If you hit the sail mast hard with this wooden stick, if you can disturb his piano sound, he can take advantage of this and stop playing." Bao'er said, "Yes." Then he struck the mast with a stick, making a crackling sound.But even though his voice was loud, not only he couldn't disturb the sound of the qin, but he unconsciously matched it with the sound of the qin. Zhou Fang frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "If you play like this, you can only accelerate his tendency to break the strings and collapse the piano. It's not helping him, but harming him." Bao'er stopped and sighed: "I just feel that the sound of the piano is like flowing water, it cannot be stopped, and it is absolutely impossible to disturb it." Zhou Fangdao: "Although the rhythm of the piano sound is long and flowing, there must be gaps in it. You just can't find the key to this mystery, so you keep hitting it." At this time, the ark was slowly approaching the shore. Looking from a distance, I saw a man in a yellow shirt with a shawl and bare feet, squatting on a huge rock near the river, stroking the strings and playing the piano. Zhou Fang glanced lightly, and went on self-control: "Not only Qin Chi is like this, but also any other man-made things. They must not be compared with the vitality of nature, such as flower arrangement, chess way, sword way... these things come to Tangtang. When you are in the room, it seems that there is no gap to be broken, but in fact, there are still flaws to be found. As long as you can understand the principle of the change of all things from the mystery of nature, it is not difficult to see the key to the flaw in the change! " Zhou Fang went on to say: "That's right, the movements of nature and the changes of all things contain the principle of swordsmanship. If you can see the flaws in other people's swordsmanship from this, you can break the opponent's sword path with one blow. At that time, it will be invincible and invincible... just like I can break Qin Chi with a single blow right now." He took Bao'er's wooden stick and hit it casually, which happened to be in the gap between the change of the rhythm of the piano fan. The sound of the zither was hit by this, and the rhythm immediately became chaotic. The man in the yellow shirt immediately let out a long whistle, shook his clothes, stood up, looked up at the sky, and suddenly became dazed. But Bao'er was completely intoxicated by the principles of martial arts that Zhou Fang narrated, and felt that although these principles were all principles that he had never heard of, they all spoke to his heart, just like a long-standing itch suddenly being scratched, The feeling in his heart was indescribable, and he didn't even bother to see who the man in the yellow shirt was. Zhou Fangdao: "The sound of the stick hitting is rough, but the sound of the qin is clear and pleasant. There is only one sound of the stick hitting, but the sound of the qin is long and continuous. With one rough sound, the long, clear and pleasant sound can be interrupted. This is because I saw the flaws in Qin's madness, and by analogy, you will know..." Bao'er jumped up suddenly, his face was full of ecstasy, and he cut his mouth and said: "By analogy, although my martial arts are not as good as others, as long as I see the emptiness and flaws in other people's sword skills, and see the key to his changing rhythm , it will not be difficult for the weak to defeat the strong, and break his sword path with one blow!" Zhou Fang now smiled and said, "Not bad!" Baoer's face was full of brilliance, and he said: "This principle is so subtle and so simple, why do people in the world of martial arts ignore it?" Zhou Fang said with a smile: "This is the difference between martial arts and martial arts. Martial arts are obtained by strength, while martial arts are understood by the mind. The strength is clumsy but the mind is clever, the power is easy but the mind is difficult. Therefore, although there are many people who are proficient in martial arts in the world, the best are those who can learn martial arts. Martial arts masters are rare. In short, how easy it is to practice a set of martial arts. Even a very young person can do it with hard work. The principle of change, how difficult it is to realize the flaws of other people's swordsmanship from the principle of change in all things, if it is not a person with great wisdom, even if you practice hard for a hundred years, you will not be able to achieve it. Therefore, for thousands of years, People who can comprehend swords with their minds and master martial arts are really unique." Bao'er sighed for a long time, and said: "The ancients said: 'A conversation with you is better than reading a book for ten years.' Today, I listened to what you said to the old man, but it is better than reading a book for a hundred years." Niu Tiewa smiled and said: "But brother, you only care about listening to people talking, but you don't know how much fun you have missed. Let's watch first and then listen!" It turned out that just now the man in the yellow shirt on the bank roared up, and was dazed for a while, then suddenly bent down, picked up the stringed qin, and threw it heavily onto the rocks on the bank. With a sound of "Peng", the qin was shattered, and a hundred beggars with disheveled heads and bare feet suddenly appeared from among the rocks and bushes on three sides behind the man in yellow. These people had obviously been hiding behind, saying that they were eavesdropping on Qin Chi, rather than that they were spying on the movement of the man in yellow. Now when they saw the man in the yellow shirt throwing his hands and smashing the zither, they were all shocked. Three white-haired beggars walked over and said a few words in front of the man in yellow, but the man in yellow didn't want to listen any more, he waved his hand and sent them away. The faces of the rest of the beggars were even more frowning.Everyone whispered and whispered, although they didn't know what they were talking about, but it was obvious that they wanted to think of some way to make the man in the yellow shirt happy. Suddenly, two white-haired beggars came out from behind the tree with a large jar of wine and brought it to the man in yellow shirt. Four boy beggars jumped out and surrounded the man in yellow shirt, laughing, clapping and dancing. From time to time, someone would pull the sleeves of the man in the yellow shirt, and tug at the corners of his shirt, with an extremely disrespectful look on his face, but it didn't seem to want to make the man in the yellow shirt happy, but instead seemed to deliberately provoke him. But the man in the yellow shirt stood on the ground, not only didn't move, he didn't even look at him, he just picked up the wine jar from time to time and took a sip of fine wine. At this time, Bao'er and Zhou Fang turned their heads to look, and happened to see this scene. Bao'er's eyes widened, and he asked in surprise, "What are these people doing? Are they crazy? Why didn't the people in the yellow shirt drive them away?" Zhou Fangdao: "I'm afraid these people are all disciples of the man in yellow." Bao'er was even more surprised, and said angrily: "If these urchins are really disciples of the man in yellow, why are they so rude to him? Isn't this disrespectful? They should each have three hundred spankings?" Zhou Fang also frowned and said: "This man in yellow shirt has to be calm. If he continues like this, he might be agitated by others again. Waiting to fight with others will definitely be at a great disadvantage." But after waiting for a while, the man in yellow shirt remained very calm. The three white-haired beggars came out again with sad faces, and the thinnest of them suddenly said loudly: "After the death of the leader of the gang, if Mr. Wang Laozun hadn't returned in time, our beggar gang would have been unimaginable. We people But never forget the kindness of Mr. Wang Laozun." The beggars all shouted yes, their enthusiasm was hard to describe, but the expression of the man in the yellow shirt was still icy and unmoved. The thin white-haired beggar continued loudly: "But the battle between Mr. Wang Laozun and that female devil today is really a critical moment for the survival of our gang. If Mr. Wang Laozun loses... Sigh! What will happen? I don't even dare to think about it, but I dare to speak out because of the old man, the battle is imminent, Wang Laozun, you...you must not go on like this, otherwise... alas!" Sighed, he lowered his head miserably. Zhou Fang twisted his beard and murmured: "The man in yellow is so calm at the moment, it is the best condition before the fight, why does this old man insist that he can't go on like this? Do you want him to fight when he is angry? Weird! Weird! Even my old man can't figure this out." While speaking, the man in the yellow shirt also sighed: "I also know that if I go on like this, I will definitely lose, but for a while, I really can't think about it." The thin white-haired beggar suddenly knelt down, kowtowed respectfully to the man in yellow shirt, then jumped up and said: "This is what I have to do, Mr. Wang Laozun must not blame him!" Solid, clear and crisp slap on the face of the man in yellow shirt. This move was even more surprising to Bao'er and the others. They saw that the beggar wanted something from the man in yellow and respected him so much. They never even dreamed that the white-haired beggar would dare to attack him suddenly. They also took it for granted, without any surprise. What's even more strange is that the man in the yellow shirt laughed out loud after taking the slap. The laughter was full of joy, which was obviously not pretending. I saw him holding up the wine jar and singing loudly, and the boys and beggars were also clapping their hands, so everyone in the house was smiling and happy. But such situations are the most taboo things for martial arts masters before fighting with others, because when they are happy, their hearts are most likely to become soft-hearted. When they meet the enemy, how can they use evil hands? Although Bao'er didn't quite understand the mystery of this, but when he saw this group of beggars making such a scene, he couldn't help frowning and sighing: "Crazy lunatics—a group of lunatics!" Suddenly seeing the man in the yellow shirt turned his head, Bao'er saw it clearly, the man in the yellow shirt turned out to be that crazy and chivalrous Jianghu strange man Wang Banxia. Seeing the change of expression on his face, Zhou Fang said in a deep voice, "Do you know him?" Bao'er smiled and said, "That's right, this is Wang Banxia, ​​Uncle Wang..." Seemingly about to blurt out a call, but was stopped by Zhou Fang, said in a deep voice: "Use your eyes more and your mouth less, have you forgotten? No matter what we are looking at, we can only look at it secretly, and we can't talk too much." Bao'er stuck out her tongue and said with a smile: "What does the old man say, what does Bao'er listen to." Zhou Fang Nianxu smiled and said: "This is a good boy." After a long while, he laughed to himself: "If this person is a king and half hero, you will understand all the weird things." Bao'er said, "Why?" Zhou Fangdao: "Wang Banxia is also mad and chivalrous, but half-chivalry's martial arts are not as good as half-madness. Therefore, in order to seek victory, these people think of various ways to stimulate the madness that Wang Banxia hides deep in their hearts. When he fights with others, Martial arts can only be used to the extreme... Haha, Wang Banxia is indeed a strange person in the world, so there are such strange things today, and ordinary people can't imagine it." Bao'er blinked and said with a smile: "In this way, he just played the piano by the river, and I'm afraid it was just to use the sound of killing and cutting in the sound of the piano to arouse the madness in his heart. When the strings break and the piano collapses, it will be When he was done, it was because we had the intention to help him, but it turned out to be harming him." Zhou Fang nodded and said with a smile: "It's really good to draw an inference from one instance." While talking, a "strange ship" came from the upper reaches of the river, calling it a "strange ship" because this ship was really strange. I saw that the hull of this strange ship was owned by the number one official ship on the river. However, there are no official cabins on the wide and flat deck of the official ship, but some canopies are put up in a mess, some seem to be dismantled from the Wupeng rice ship, and some seem to be from the Lehu boat by the Qinhuai River. When disassembled, some of them look like "yurts" outside the Great Wall, and some are simply built with a few reed mats and broken boards. It looks like a slum where the victims of the fire gather. These canopies are really messy, and what's even better is that between these canopies, there are more than a dozen masts of different sizes and lengths erected in a mess.The sails on the mast are also of different kinds, some are a broken sail, some are patched with dozens of pieces of clothing, and some simply hang a single sheet.The most wonderful thing is that there are ropes between the masts, and the ropes are full of broken pots, broken shovels, a few salted fish, a few pieces of bacon, three Chinese cabbages, five wind chickens, dozens of dried radishes, A dilapidated scarlet cloak, a dozen tattered gowns, a dozen patchwork pleated skirts, dozens of pairs of tattered embroidered shoes of different sizes, a few strings of copper coins, a few broken mirrors, a hundred and ten Just a broken purse, a dozen broken quilts, a few broken hats, countless pieces of broken jackets, rotten socks... There are also some things that you can't say, can't think of, fragmentary, weird, and make you cry or laugh when you see them. At a glance, the boat is really colorful and bizarre. When the wind blows by, those broken pots, shovels, broken copper coins, broken mirrors... etc. are blowing against each other with the wind, making some squeaking and clanging sounds. It also made you dizzy after hearing the insurance. Tie Wa was stunned, her eyes widened, she couldn't turn her head, her mouth opened wide, but she couldn't close it, her eyes were full of envy, as if she wished she could go up and play. Bao'er couldn't help being startled and laughing at the sight, shaking his head and saying: "I only think of Tie Wa, this boat is already the strangest in the world, who knows there are others thousands of times weirder than him." Tie Wa said foolishly: "If we also have such a boat, how great it would be." Suddenly, a series of crackling sounds sounded like firecrackers in the canopy on the strange ship. Then, a large cloud of colorful smoke poured out from the canopy, covering the whole ship, and the strange ship was shrouded in this colorful smoke. , against the sun and the river, it is even more magnificent and incomparable. When the disciples of the Beggars' Clan on the shore saw the boat coming, their expressions changed drastically. Three white-haired old beggars rushed out and stood side by side on the shore. The most emaciated person said in a deep voice: "Ye Leng accompanied the leader of the clan, Mr. Wang, and led the disciples of the poor family. We are here to wait for you, but please come out to see Mrs. Wang." Although the voice was low, But with a lot of energy in his heart, he sent out every single word, like thunder and drums, shocking people's minds. He only heard a soft, sweet voice coming out of the colorful smoke, and said with a charming smile: "Old man Ye, what are you in a hurry for? Do you want us to come out to meet each other before we get dressed?" There is also some obsession with Wu Nong's soft language. It is Wu Ren's Jing language that is as beautiful as an oriole. An angry look appeared on Ye Leng's face, but he held back and kept silent. But Wen Caiyan gave a soft smile like a silver bell, and said softly, "Xiuxiu, why did you wear my skirt, give it back to me." "Ouch, you stepped on my foot." "This is my clothes, you...you see, they were robbed." "Help, ma'am, you can see clearly that this brat won't let me wear clothes." Although the colorful smoke is thick, you can still vaguely see many white bodies running and jumping in the smoke, coupled with this touching smile, these touching words... Nine out of ten disciples of the Beggars' Clan on the shore blushed, but Niu Tiewa's eyes widened and he laughed and said, "Hey, it turns out that these big girls don't wear clothes on the boat." Bao'er said: "Such nonsense, I really deserve a spanking." Tie Wa immediately stood up and said: "Brother has an order, can Tie Wa go and fight?" Zhou Fang stared, and lightly reprimanded: "You two don't mess around. Although this matter seems absurd, there must be a huge crisis hidden in it. We can only hide here and watch secretly. If you talk too much I'm afraid it will be like last time again, and even my life will be in danger." Tie Wa stuck out her tongue and dared not speak again. Seeing that the boat had landed, suddenly two figures jumped out from the colorful smoke, both of them were dressed in rags, their hair was unkempt, and they looked like beggars. Hearing that charming laughing voice, Bao'er thought that all the people on board must be stunning beauties, but at this moment, when she glanced at it suddenly, she was startled. But after looking carefully, I realized that my guess was good. Although these two people were unkempt, they had bright eyes and bright teeth, and sweet smiles. Even the dirt could not hide their natural beauty. Especially the one on the right, wearing a tattered double-breasted brocade shirt on the upper body, and a pair of faded beaded shoes on the lower body, but in the middle there are a pair of slender jade legs exposed, making people look at them and make their hearts beat In the sky of Niu, he never dared to take a second look at her—but he couldn't help but look at her. The person on the left, dressed neatly in brocade clothes and skirts, but with bare feet underneath, rolled his eyes at this moment, and actually clasped his fists in salute, and said loudly: "Wu Qingqing and Lu Xiuxiu have come to order this place under the orders of the king's lord." The disciples of this sect knelt down to welcome the sect master." The disciples of the beggar gang immediately became angry, and an old white-haired beggar on the left said angrily: "Why does Mrs. Wang want us to kneel down to pick her up? My surname Shi is the first..." Wu Qingqing said: "Shi Liang, don't you forget that Mrs. Wang is our leader, if you talk like this, aren't you afraid that she will cut your tongue?" Shi Liang said angrily: "Aunt Wang is your leader, not mine..." Lu Xiuxiu smiled and said: "We are also beggars, so naturally we are members of the Beggar Gang. Although there are differences between men and women, the old fairy Chu who founded the Beggar Gang did not stipulate in the gang rules that women are not allowed to join the Beggar Gang..." Suddenly, there was a pat on jade. Legs, coquettishly said: "Ouch, a big mosquito..." dipped some saliva, spread it on the jade legs, Fang Zi then said: "You are all familiar with the rules of the beggars' gang, you should know what I said. wrong?" Ye Leng, Shi Liang and another sly game, the three of them looked at each other in dismay.The three old men who had experienced so much history could not find a word to refute this coquettish little girl.It should be known that although the issue of whether women are allowed to join the "beggar gang" has existed for many years, there are very few female beggars with martial arts in the world, so no one in the beggar gang has studied this issue deeply. Unexpectedly, Aunt Wang took advantage of this gap to train a group of female disciples to become beggars, to compete with the original "beggar gang". Seeing Lu Xiuxiu's eyes flickering, she smiled coquettishly and said, "There is no rule in the Beggar Clan not to allow female disciples to join, and naturally there is no rule not to allow women to be the leader of the clan, so both men and women should send one person to compete for this For the position of leader, if the man's martial arts and wit are not as good as the woman's, for the future development of the beggar gang, a woman should be the leader of the gang, do you think this is a matter of course?" She caressed her jade legs, paused her voice, and when no one else spoke, she continued: "Now your male gang leader is no match for our Aunt Wang no matter in martial arts or wit, so the position of gang leader should naturally be given to Aunt Wang. It couldn’t be more simple to understand.” Shi Liang yelled, and said: "You are such an eloquent little girl, you are going to kill even the dead, but the person surnamed Shi doesn't listen to your nonsense, he still sees the outcome." Lu Xiuxiu smiled and said: "If this is nonsense, you should find something to refute me... Ouch, my legs are getting more and more itchy, your hands are thick, can you scratch my legs for me?" Picking up a pair of pink and shiny jade legs, she sent it to Shi Liang. Shi Liang's heart skipped a beat, and he took three steps back. Lu Xiuxiu giggled and said, "You don't even dare to touch my legs, and dare to say you want to fight me, so be obedient..." Suddenly, a figure flew across and said with a laugh: "Is your leg itchy? Okay, let me scratch it for you." The laughter was strange, it was Wang Banxia. Lu Xiuxiu panicked now, and shouted: "You... how dare you?" She wanted to retract her legs, but for some reason, someone grabbed her silky ankle. Wang Banxia laughed loudly and said, "Where is the itching?" Lu Xiuxiu shouted coquettishly: "Take off your dirty hands!" She slid out her ten slender fingers following the sound, the movement was as delicate as willow silk fluttering, but the speed of the strike, the accuracy of the point, and the ruthlessness of the strike were as sharp as ten handles. Sword, as long as others get a little bit of it, they will never laugh again. But Wang Banxia laughed even louder, although Lu Xiuxiu made a quick move, she would never want to get a piece of his clothes.Hearing Wu Qingqing's scolding, he kicked Wang Banxia's waist straight. This kick came without a trace, it seems to have acquired the essence of the "flying tiger's shadowless leg" of the Southern School of Shaolin, and the Southern School of Shaolin has never had female disciples, and it is unknown where these young girls learned it from.Ye Leng and the others saw that the kick was so powerful, they couldn't help but blurted out in surprise. Unexpectedly, Wang Banxia put an empty hand out from under his side, and cleverly grabbed her ankle, Shi Liang clapped his hands and shouted: "What a trick!" After drinking, one of the people in the colorful smoke sighed softly: "I don't see how clever it is, but it can be used to bully other girls." Although Wu Qingqing and Lu Xiuxiu were subdued and unable to move, they looked reassuring and showed no signs of panic. Hearing these words, a smile appeared on the corners of their mouths. But when the colorful smoke faded away, a group of girls were laughing and jumping up and down the shore, some with bare feet, some with bare legs, and some with tattered clothes, showing their breasts and shoulders, clapping their hands and singing in unison. : "Old man Wang, shameless, smelly feet, swinging on a swing." The other four girls carried a dilapidated round table, which was covered with strips, pieces, colorful and fragmented silks and satins. In the pile of broken brocades, there is a gorgeous and charming woman sitting on the side. Although there are some signs of aging in the corners of her eyes and forehead, her bright eyes still look so young. She was carried up to the bank of the river amidst the girl's folk songs, her peerless elegance and intimidating temperament made people forget her strange behavior and shabby clothes—in the eyes of hundreds of beggar gang disciples on the bank, this shabby The woman on the brocade on the table is really like the queen under the tassel tent and in the soft sedan chair with eight treasures. Zhou Fang, who was in the dark, saw this beautiful woman, but unconsciously frowned slightly, and murmured: "Aunt Wang! Huh! Huh! Aunt Wang..." After the folk song was over, Aunt Wang squinted at Wang Banxia, ​​shook her head and said with a smile, "A senior with a great reputation in the martial arts world grabs a little girl's feet and won't let go, isn't it embarrassing?" Wang Banxia said in his mouth: "It's really embarrassing, why don't you let her go!" But suddenly another voice shouted from him: "No, no, let them go so cheap, I, Wang Bankuang, will be the first to refuse." Banxia said: "What about you?" Kuang said in a wild voice: "Aunt Wang let our Clan Master go, let's let these two little girls go, fair deal, no bullying for young and old." Aunt Wang giggled and said, "In this way, do you actually compare your status as the leader of the gang with these two little girls? This is too contemptuous of your former gang leaders!" Wang Banxia said: "What do you want?" Aunt Wang rolled her eyes and said: "I am sitting on this table without moving. If you can catch my feet within three hundred moves, I will let your precious leader go. Otherwise, you will never mention this matter again." , obediently push me to be the leader, am I not much better than that little old man?" Wang Banxia's eyes lit up, and he said loudly, "Speak out." Aunt Wang laughed and said, "Four thousand horses can't catch them back." Wang Banxia split his hands, threw Wu Qingqing and Lu Xiuxiu away, and said loudly: "Please!" The disciples of the Beggar Clan were also excited. You must know that Wang Banxia is famous for his accuracy and quickness in his shots. "Splitting light and catching shadows" is the most superior capture technique in the martial arts. Although there are many people who have practiced this technique in the past century, Wang Banxia is known as the number one in the world. People, if Aunt Wang is sitting still, it is really easy for Wang Banxia to grab her feet. Aunt Wang smiled like a silver bell, and said: "Okay, you can do it!" She waved and parted the pile of brocade that was originally piled on her body. Wang Banxia swept forward, his hands stretched out quickly, like grasping, like probing, endlessly, especially the palm movements are unpredictable and uncertain, making people don't know where to dodge. Unexpectedly, when he poked out his palm, he suddenly froze! Aunt Wang's two legs were broken from knee to knee!She has no legs at all, but how can Wang Banxia go to catch her? 这一着委实大出王半侠意料；刹那之间，他再也不能动弹，只是怔怔地望着那一堆碎锦发呆。 少女们一起拍手大笑，高歌道：“王老头，奸似鬼，也要吃吃咱们大娘娘的洗脚水。” 丐帮弟子却无一不是颜色惨变，只因此番赌约关系委实太大，王半侠番败了，丐帮麾下满布江湖的成千成百条好汉，岂非要永受这来历不明、行踪诡异的女子管辖？丐帮百年来辛苦树立之威名，岂非从此毁于一旦？ 王大娘笑得有如花枝乱颤，道：“半侠老弟，这次你可上了我的当了吧，还不乖乖地称我一声帮主？” 王半侠还未说话，丐帮弟子却已勃然大哗。 王大娘眼波一转，盈盈笑道：“像我这样的人，来做你们的帮主，你们本该高兴才是，乱吵什么？” 她笑语之声虽然轻柔，但丐帮弟子每一人都听得清清楚楚；她眼波虽只轻轻一转，但却似在丐帮弟子每一人面上都扫过一眼。 丐帮数百弟子被她这一眼扫过，不但俱都忘了她年纪，也俱都忘了她的残废——一个残废的女子，能使人忘却她身体的缺陷，她不但要有绝美的风姿，还得有绝高的智慧、绝大的吸引之力——丐帮弟子，竟似都被她这一眼瞧得呆了，再无一人发出喧哗之声来。 王大娘眼波最后凝注在王半侠脸上，眼波更媚，笑容也更媚，耳语般轻轻道：“你呢？你也服输了么？” 叶冷等三人目光情不自禁也一齐望向王半侠，面上神情俱是凝重异常，自亦因王半侠这句回答委实关系太大。 只听王半侠一字字缓缓道：“我服输了。” 叶冷等人身子一震，几乎再也站立不稳。 王大娘满面娇笑，道：“好！” 哪知她银铃般的笑声方自响起，王半侠腹中突然也响起一阵笑声，笑得比她更响，道：“王大娘，你也上当了。” 王大娘道：“什么？” 那粗鲁奇异的语声道：“这身子只有一半是王半侠的，王半侠服输了，我王半狂可还未曾服输！” 王大娘面色立变，但瞬又娇笑起来。 她面上表情之变化当真是瞬息千变，令人再也无法捉摸。 王半狂道：“在这种情况下，你居然还能笑得出来，佩服佩服。”摇摇摆摆，围着那圆桌走了两圈，突然出手如风，疾点王大娘“肩井”大穴，哪知王大娘竟然不避不闪，王半狂一着便已得手。 丐帮弟子又惊又喜，谁知那些少女竟也是满面娇笑，无动于衷。王半狂目光扫过，心中虽然大感惊异，但手掌丝毫不停，自王大娘“杵白”、“曲池”、“四白”、“太溪”等穴道一路点了下去，口中大笑道：“实施暗算，虽非光明行径，但我王半狂一向就不是正人君子，王大娘你莫怪！莫怪！” 几句话功夫，他出手如风，已将王大娘双肩以下、双手以上二十余处大穴一齐点住。 这边的丐帮弟子瞧了，固是人人大喜欲狂，那边的方宝儿瞧了，也是喜动颜色，拊掌道：“王大叔果然有两手。” 周方却冷冷道：“只怕未必……”这两句话说完，只听王大娘口中已长长透出了口气，道：“你点够了么？” 王半狂大笑道：“我老人家还要点住你的哑穴，让你再也说不出骂人的话！”方自缩回的手掌又闪电般点了出去。 他每招每式每一出手，看来俱都十分平凡，甚至有如俚妇、村汉骂街相打时之出手一般，平凡中还有些粗俗。 但这些招式被“练家子”瞧在眼里，便可看出其中委实奥妙无比。此刻王大娘双肩穴道被点，已是不能抵抗，但王半侠之出手仍是谨慎小心，后着绵绵，丐帮弟子忍不住哄然喝起彩来。 眼见王半侠这一招又是必定得手，哪知他手掌伸出，王大娘居然也抬起手来，拢了拢鬓发，嫣然笑道：“你还要点？” 王半狂当场愕住，数百丐帮弟子再也笑不出来——千百双眼睛每一双都瞧得清清楚楚，王大娘明明已被王半狂点了二十余处穴道，本该再也不能动弹，此番她竟能抬起手来，众人瞧在眼里，实比瞧见鬼魅还要吃惊百倍！ 方宝儿也不禁睁大了眼睛，悄声道：“被人点住穴道的滋味我也尝过，那时纵然用尽平生之力，却连小指都无法动一动，此刻这王……大娘莫非有什么魔法不成？还是王半侠大叔的点穴术不够高明？” 周方道：“王半狂点穴之手法虽非超凡绝俗之独门工夫，但已和江湖中普通一般手法有些不同，此等手法灵便诡妙，出手迅速，最宜以弱胜强，以寡敌众，但却有个最大的缺点。” 宝儿双目圆睁，听得津津有味，显然，他对武学一道不但已改变了昔日那种厌恶之感，而且还动了兴趣，此刻居然忍不住问道：“什么缺点？” 周方道：“此等手法名为'碎瓦砖金手'，弱而不强，力不能实，不易将人根本制住，点中人身之后，对那人根本毫无损伤。是以此等手法在江湖中有个可笑的别名，名之曰'碎嘴太婆手'，顾名思义，你也可知道此等手法有如老太婆打架一般，出手纵重，但打着人时已软了。” 无论宝儿问他什么，他俱是不厌其烦，由浅人深，将那件事每一点都解释得详详细细、明明白白。 宝儿道：“原来他出手不重，难怪王大娘能解开了。” 周方正色道：“此等出手虽不重，但别人被王半侠点了穴道后，至少也得要十二个时辰，才能自行解开。” 宝儿奇道：“那么王大娘为什么又能……”
