Chapter 5 Chapter 4 Mr. Bai is a Good Treat

one There are only two ordinary dishes for appetizers, but twelve bottles of wine have been drunk. Twelve bottles of Shaoxing. Zanghua dripped the last drop of wine from the twelfth bottle into the glass, then shook the bottle and sighed softly. "It seems that today's wine can only be drunk here." Zang Hua seemed to be full of ideas. "Do you still want to drink?" Ren Piaoling said with a smile: "You still can't drink enough?" "Twelve bottles, six bottles per person." Zanghua said: "It's only enough to stuff the teeth." What a pity." Ren Piaoling sighed.

"It's a pity that I only have fifty taels on me. Fifty taels can only drink twelve bottles of wine." He picked up the cup, brought the mouth of the cup to his nose, and smelled it gently. Then he said: "I advise you to cherish this glass of wine, although you have not fully enjoyed it, you have solved the slander," Ren Piaoling smiled. "When I get the next sum of money, I'll treat you to a good drink." "No." Zanghua said suddenly. "What doesn't work?" "You have invited me all your property, how can I just let you go like this." Tibetan Flower One of the Five Classics said: "At least let me show that I invite you to drink fifty taels of wine." "You want to invite me back?"

"yes." "Do you have fifty taels?" "No." "Then how do you invite me back?" Ren Piaoling smiled. "The owner of this store is your friend?" "No." Zang Hua also smiled. "How can he be my friend? He's just my son." The winter was over, but the chill was still there. Hu Bubai was in a very happy mood today, because today he was wearing a new padded jacket with rabbit fur. A brand new padded jacket he won last night. He was sitting at the counter wearing a new padded jacket, and greeted every guest who entered the door with a very pleasant smile.

But his happy smile only lasted until the seventh guest, because as soon as the eighth and ninth guests entered, not only did his smile disappear, but his head suddenly became as big as three. The eighth and ninth guests are Zanghua and Ren Piaoling. He didn't know Ren Piaoling, but Zang Hua was the one who gave him a headache. Especially after she drank six bottles of Shaoxing. Now Hu Bubai's head is no longer as big as three heads, he doesn't know how big it is. Because now Zanghua is looking at him with a very pleasant smile. "Hello." Zanghua greeted Hu Bubai with a very pleasant voice.

"How can I be better?" Hu Bubai's voice seemed to be about to cry, "You know that when I meet you, I will only be unlucky, so how can I be better?" "From today onwards, you will definitely get better. "Zanghua said: "Because I have already decided." "What to decide?" "Decided not to eat and drink for free in your shop." "real?" "real." "You got rich?" "How can a man like me get rich?" Hu Bubai glanced at Ren Piaoling who was sitting on the seat. "That friend of yours is an idiot?" "Does he look like one to you?"

"Not like." Hu Bubai shook his head. "Since you haven't made a fortune, and your friend is not an idiot, you are still a poor man like before, and you come to my shop and eat and drink for nothing." "No." Zanghua said: "I said After that, from now on I will never eat and drink for nothing with you." Zanghua smiled happily again, and she said to Hu Bubai in a very pleasant voice: "I decided to spend everything with you in the future. Keep an account for eating and drinking." "Account." Hu Bubai almost cried. No matter who's expression after hearing this sentence, it must be absolutely the same as his expression.

"Isn't this the same as eating and drinking for free?" "It's not the same." Tibetan Flower said, "How could it be the same?" "How could it be different?" Hu Bubai smiled wryly. "Bookkeeper, what do you use to pay?" "Money." Zanghua said, "Of course I will pay with money." "Are you rich?" "Don't look down on people." Zang Hua said: "I, Zang Hua, will definitely make a fortune one day. On that day, I will not only pay off all the bills, but also treat you well." "As long as you don't treat yourself well After eating me, I will be satisfied." Hu Bubai said, "How dare I beg you to treat me to a good meal." Two

There were still two courses and twelve bottles of wine on the table. The dishes are ordinary dishes, and the wine is full of Shaoxing. Zanghua poured a glass of wine for Ren Piaoling, and then poured another glass for herself. "These two dishes are already the best in this restaurant." Zang Hua said, "I hope you don't mind." "This is the best dish I have eaten in three months. I am too happy. How could it be?" Mind?" Ren Piaoling said. Zanghua raised her glass and said to Ren Piaoling: "Have a glass of wine, drunk with old friends." "Okay, good words. For this sentence, I should give you a good meal." This sentence is not What Ren Piaoling said was not about Hu Bubai.

This sentence was said by a young man in a white silk satin robe. He was standing at the door, and when he finished speaking, he had already sat down beside Tibetan Flower. "Shopkeeper, take another eighteen bottles of wine, I want good wine." The white-clothed boy said, "It's a forty-year-old bamboo leaf green." Then he said: "For a few more dishes, I want--" "It's good food." Zang Hua finished the sentence for the boy in white. "right." The boy in white smiled. "Single whore and double drink." The boy in white said, "You can't drink without a partner." He quickly poured three glasses of wine himself. "Come on, I'll drink three glasses first, toast to you both." There are eight dishes and eighteen bottles of wine.

Eighteen bottles of bamboo leaf green. The desktop is also changed from a small one to a large one. Hu Bubai's smile returned, and he quickly served the food and wine. ——After all, "rich" people are popular in this world. "My surname is Bai, Bai Tianyu." The boy in white smiled and looked at Tibetan flowers. "What about you? What's your name?" "Tibetan flowers." She also looked at Bai Baiyu with a smile. "Tibetan flowers that hide flowers." "Tibetan flowers?" Bai Baiyu said, "Okay, good name." He turned his head to look at Ren Piaoling, thought for a while, and then said: "People are not Piaoling, but Jian Piaoling." After drinking a glass of wine, he continued: "There are only Piaoling people in the world, how can there be Piaoling?" Sword." "Why?" Tibetan Flower is really curious.

"Because swords have roots." "A sword has roots?" Zanghua asked again: "Where is the root?" "In the enemy's vital point." Bai Baiyu drank another glass of wine. "No matter where the sword is, one day it will go back to find its roots." "In other words, no matter where the sword is, one day it will come back to stab the enemy's vital points." Zang Hua said. "yes." Ren Piaoling has been listening, since Bai Baiyu joined, he seems to have become dumb suddenly. Bai Baiyu didn't seem to want to keep him silent. "Mr. Ren Piaoling, do you agree with me?" Ren Piaoling didn't answer, but he asked instead: "Who are you?" "Who am I?" Bai Baiyu laughed again. "My name is Bai Baiyu." "I didn't ask your name." Ren Piaoling stared at him. "I want to know your real identity, why did you come here?" Bai Baiyu put away his smile, and the expression on his face gradually became serious, and his eyes were fixed on Ren Piaoling. "I came here for the tears." Bai Baiyu said. "Tear stains?" Ren Piaoling's eyes suddenly flashed with a blade-like light. "How do you know about tears?" His voice was also as cold as a blade. "I know." Bai Baiyu said coldly, "Of course I know." Ren Piaoling's eyes moved from Bai Baiyu's eyes to nose and mouth.He stared at Bai Baiyu slowly and carefully. Bai Baiyu's eyes, demeanor, standing posture, breathing frequency, material of clothes, he did not let go of every part of his body. He seems to see far more carefully than Zai Si, and his gray eyes seem to hide some kind of precision instrument specially made to observe others. After observing, Ren Piaoling asked Bai Baiyu in a very peaceful voice: "Did you come from the mountain?" "Yes." "Is it a tall mountain?" "yes." "Is there a clear spring and an ancient pine where you live?" "Yes." Bai Baiyu had already begun to feel very surprised. "Is there an old man on that mountain who likes to drink tea?" Ren Piaoling asked again: "Does he often sit under that ancient pine tree and use the spring water there to cook tea?" "Yes." Bai Baiyu said: "About tears That's what he told me." "Did he tell you anything about me?" "No." Ren Piaoling stared at Bai Baiyu, and the gloomy eyes shone with a blade-like light. "He never mentioned me?" Ren Piaoling asked: "He didn't even mention anything about me?" "Absolutely not." Bai Baiyu said: "The old man just told me that the most terrible weapon in the world is tear stains ." "Have you ever told anyone?" "No." "Does anyone know where you came from?" "No." Bai Tianyu immediately went on to say: "Zaisi once checked my clothes, trying to find out where I came from from the material of my clothes, but unfortunately he didn't see anything." He wove it himself, and he sewed the clothes himself. That mountain was an unknown mountain, except for them, no mortal footsteps had ever set foot on it. During the day, Yu smiled again. "Even if Zai Si has great skills, he can never find out my origin." "Where is your sword?" Ren Piaoling asked again: "Has anyone seen your sword?" Of course Bai Baiyu's sword is in his hand superior. "there's a few." "How many people?" "A few dead people." Bai Baiyu said: "Everyone who has seen my sword has died by my sword." "Is there anything special about your sword?" "some." "What's so special?" "Seven characters are engraved on the spine of this sword." "Which seven words?" "The small building listens to the spring rain all night." "The small building listened to the spring rain all night" Ren Piaoling's eyes suddenly revealed an expression that no one could explain, as if very sad, but also as if very happy. "Chunyu, Chunyu, so there really is such a sword in the world." Ren Piaoling murmured, "Why is there such a sword in the world?" "Where there are tears, there is Chunyu." "I know Chunyu is Bai Baiyu's sword, but what is the tear stain?" Zang Hua couldn't help asking, "Why is the tear stain the most terrifying weapon in the world, and what kind of weapon is it?" Bai Baiyu didn't answer, he looked Worked as Piao Ling. Zanghua is also looking at Ren Piaoling, she is waiting for his answer. Ren Piaoling slowly poured a glass of wine and drank it slowly, his eyes looked at an unknown high mountain in the distance, and after a long time, he said, "The trace of tears is a sword." "Sword?" Zang Hua said : "Why is the sword called tear stain?" "Because there is a very strange mark on the spine of this sword." Ren Piaoling said, "It looks like tears." "Tears?" Zanghua said, "Why are there tears on the murder sword?" When the sword is out of the furnace, if there are tears dripping on the sword, there will be tears that will never be erased." "Whose tears are?" "It belongs to Master Xiao." Ren Piaoling said, "Under the whole world, Master Xiao is the only one." "When the sword is first released, gods and ghosts are jealous, and I understand that too." Zang Hua said: "But I don't understand why Master Xiao himself Do you want to shed tears for it?" "Because he is not only good at forging swords, but also the skill of making swords is unmatched." Ren Piaoling's voice was full of sadness. "As soon as the sword came out of the furnace, he saw an indelible omen from the sword." "What omen?" "You said it yourself just now. When a sword is born, gods and ghosts are taboo. Once this sword is released, it carries the curse of ghosts and gods and the hostility of heaven and earth." Ren Piaoling sighed. "Not only will it hurt someone if you get out of the scabbard, but you must also sacrifice the person closest to Master Xiao." "The closest person to Master Xiao is his son?" "That's right." Ren Piaoling said sadly: "When this sword came out, Master Xiao already saw that his only son was going to die by it." "Why didn't he destroy this sword?" "He couldn't bear it, and he didn't dare." "This sword is his own brainchild, of course he couldn't bear to destroy it." Zanghua understood this. "But I don't understand why he didn't dare to destroy it." "Heaven's will is impermanent, and its power is unpredictable. There are many arrangements in the dark that cannot be resisted by manpower." Ren Piaoling's eyes showed that kind of indescribable sadness. "If Master Xiao destroys this sword, maybe something more terrible will happen to his only son." "How did Master Xiao dispose of this sword later?" In your hands?" "I've heard that there is an old man sharpening a knife in the rivers and lakes. His sword is fierce and good, and his efficacy is like a god." Zanghua said: "Master Xiao's first disciple must be him." Ren Piaoling nodded. "Master Xiao's second disciple, Shao Kong, acquired his skill of raising swords, and later became a generation of sword masters." "Shao Kongzi?" Zang Hua was moved, "is it Master Shao who forged the farewell hook?" "That's him "Ren Piaoling said: "These two are unborn geniuses, but Master Xiao passed on his most proud stabbing technique to the third disciple, and also passed on the tears to him." "Why pass it on?" give him?" "Because this person is not only broad-minded and benevolent, but also very indifferent in nature. He has no desire for fame and fortune at all, and he never kills." "He has mastered Master Xiao's swordsmanship, of course no one can take away the tears from his hands. Zanghua said: "Such a benevolent elder will certainly not harm the teacher's only son." "Yes." "So Master Xiao's only son is still alive?" "yes." "Then how did the tears get into your hands?" Zanghua asked this question again. Ren Piaoling's gaze drifted into the distance again. "Because... because I am the apprentice of Master Xiao's third disciple." "He not only passed on sword skills to you, but also passed on tears to you?" "Yes." Ren Piaoling said: "He was trapped in a deep mountain when he was thirty years old , vowed never to step into the world of mortals again." "Which mountain is it?" "I don't know." Ren Piaoling said, "No one knows." three "Tearstain is a sword, why is it said to be the most terrifying weapon in the world?" Zanghua asked, "What's so terrible about it?" "You want to know?" Ren Piaoling said. "I want to." Zang Hua said, "I really want to." Ren Piaoling suddenly turned to Bai Baiyu and asked something unrelated to the issue of Tibetan flowers. "Do you know what the name of the sword that Gu Taoist in Bashan used to sweep the world with the Huifengwu Liujian in seventy-seven forty-nine hands?" "That sword is called Green Willow." "How much did the ax used by Wuling woodcutter, the hidden hero in Huangshan, weigh?" "The net weight is seventy-three catties." Bai Tianyu said like a treasure: "Although he only made eleven moves, each move was an extremely domineering killer. It is said that no one in the world at that time could walk under his hands." Seven tricks." "Iron chain flying sickle kills people like mowing grass, who used the flying sickle?" Ren Piaoling asked again. "Lone Ranger Zhannan." Bai Tianyu said: "This weapon is said to be from Japan. It has a mysterious move and has never been seen in Middle-earth." , These weapons are also owned by the top contemporary masters." Ren Piaoling said: "Each weapon has its unique moves." "I'm asking about your tear stain." Zanghua couldn't help but said: "It's not you who said These weapons." "But my tear stain is the essence of these weapons." Ren Piaoling said lightly. "I don't understand." Zanghua asked him again: "How can a sword be the essence of twelve weapons?" "Of course you can't see the mystery in it." Ren Piaoling said: "But you should also I know that all weapons in the world are nothing more than some fragmentary iron pieces, and they must be pieced together to become a weapon." He also explained: "Even if it is a knife, it must have a blade, a blade, and a blade. , knife handle, knife ring, and knife jacket, five different things must be put together to make a knife." Zanghua seems to have understood a little bit. "Do you mean that you can piece together a weapon with your sword?" "Not one, but twelve." Ren Piaoling said flatly, "Twelve different weapons." Zang Hua was stunned Wait, she doesn't believe that there is such a sword in the world? "Using twelve different methods, twelve different forms of weapons have been pieced together, but each form is different from common weapons, because each form has at least two or three functions of weapons." Ren Piaoling said : "The essence of all the moves of these weapons is in the tears." He asked Zanghua: "Have you understood now?" Zang Hua was completely stunned. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, who would believe that such a sword with such an exquisite and precise structure really existed in the world? But Tibetan flowers have to be believed. So she couldn't help but sigh: "Master Xiao is really an amazing genius, he can forge such a sword." "Yes." Ren Piaoling's pale, dignified and indifferent face suddenly showed a very strange expression, like a most pious believer who suddenly mentioned his most worshiped god. "No one can compare to him." Ren Piaoling said: "No one can compare to him in his sword skills, his wisdom, his thoughts, his benevolence, and his method of forging iron and swords." Tearstain is certainly an unprecedented outstanding weapon, but it is not easy to use it." Bai Baiyu suddenly said: "If there is no outstanding person to use it, it will not be able to exert its power." He was not boasting about Ren Piaoling, He was merely stating a fact. "This person must not only be proficient in the moves of these twelve weapons, but also have a very clear understanding of the structure of each weapon. He must also have a pair of extremely dexterous hands, so that he can remove the iron in the tears in the shortest possible time. Put the pieces together." "In addition, he also needs to have extremely rich experience, extremely sensitive response, and extremely correct judgment." Ren Piaoling said lightly. "Why?" Tibetan flower asked. "Because different opponents use different weapons and moves, so you must judge what kind of weapon to use to restrain your opponent in the shortest possible time." Ren Piaoling continued: "Before the opponent makes a move , you have to figure it out, what kind of weapon should be assembled from the tear stains?" He said: "And you have to finish it before the opponent makes a move. As long as you are one step slower, you may die on the opponent subordinate." Zanghua smiled wryly. "It seems that this is not an easy task." Zang Hua said: "There are not many people like this in the world." Ren Piaoling looked at Bai Baiyu quietly, and after a long time, she said coldly: "Your hands are dexterous." "It seems to be." "Your martial arts are already very solid, and it seems that you have also practiced the Yuka technique handed down from the secret sect of Tianzhu and the peak of the water of the Holy Mother." "It seems to be." "The old man who passed on the spring rain to you has something to do with my tears." Ren Piaoling said lightly, "So you haven't died until now." "Did you originally want to kill me?" Bai Baiyu asked "Why didn't you kill me?" "Because I want you to stay by my side." Ren Piaoling said, "I want you to inherit my martial arts and my tears." What Ren Piaoling is talking about is a piece of luck that others can't even dream of. The extremely mysterious "Tearstain", the most terrifying weapon in the world. An unknown young man is about to have the opportunity to become famous suddenly, and the fate of his life has suddenly changed at this moment. What kind of feelings will this young man have in his heart? Bai Baiyu didn't even react at all, as if he was listening to someone say something that had nothing to do with him. "My only condition is that you never leave me until you have perfected my martial arts." This condition is not harsh, and it is very reasonable. Bai Baiyu still didn't respond at all, he said lightly: "It's a pity you forgot to ask me one thing".Bai Baiyu said: "You forgot to ask me if I would stay by your side?" There is no need to ask this question, only lunatics and idiots would refuse such a condition. Bai Baiyu was neither a lunatic nor an idiot. Ren Piaoling still asked him: "Are you willing?" "I don't want to." Bai Baiyu replied without even thinking about it: "I don't want to either." Ren Piaoling's pupils suddenly changed, from gray pupils to the edge of a sword, the tip of a needle, and the tip of a needle. A bee's sting pierced Bai Baiyu's eyes. Bai Baiyu didn't even blink his eyes. The two of them stared at each other like this for an unknown amount of time before Ren Piaoling slowly asked: "Why don't you?" "Because I came here just to find you." You compare swords." "Compare swords". "Yes." Bai Baiyu said, "I'm going to try to see if it's your tears that are the most severe, or my spring rain." Ren Piaoling stared at Bai Baiyu, his eyes became gloomy and lifeless again: "To lose with a sword is to die." "I know." Bai Baiyu said: "I have already dedicated my life to the sword, and I will die by the sword without any regrets." "Okay." Ren Piaoling stood up: "At noon three days later, in the cherry blossom forest. "After he finished speaking, the man turned around and walked out without even turning his head, and didn't even glance at Zanghua, as if he never knew her. "Is this person a human?" Zang Hua said, "Just now we were chatting and drinking together, why did he suddenly become a different person?" Bai Baiyu looked outside the door. "I understand how he feels."
