Chapter 29 Chapter Twenty-Nine

Zhao Ziyuan sat up, recalled the past, and asked in astonishment: "Xiao Ke was hit by that woman's finger, and she knew she was going to die. She can still be here well now, and she must be rescued by one of you!" Long Huatian shook his head and said, "No, no, it's the way to save my little brother. People are Lin Gao people!" Zhao Ziyuan stood up, moved around, and felt that there was nothing wrong with it, and wondered: "Did he save me?" Longhua Heavenly Way: "That's right, this person's behavior is really a bit weird. After saving my brother, he left. Before leaving, he once said that my brother was still drunk, and he was waiting in the city."

Zhao Ziyuan pondered for a while, and said: "This person is indeed strange. Xiao Ke has always suspected that he is Tai Ji in disguise. Unexpectedly, he actually saved Xiao Ke's life at this critical moment." Longhua Heavenly Way: "Do you know who that woman is?" Zhao Ziyuan said blankly: "I don't know!" Long Huatian sighed: "This person is the West Empress of Yan Gong. Before she left, she once said that my little brother would not live for another hour. From his tone, it seems that he is going to Shaolin to make trouble!" Zhao Ziyuan's heart skipped a beat, thinking that it really happened!Master Juehai said:

"Benefactor Zhao is safe and sound, the old monk is relieved, so he hurried back to Shaolin to have a look." Master Juehai was about to take a step, when suddenly he turned his head and said to Wudang three swords: "If there is Shaolin, it will involve Wudang. In other words, if there is Wudang, it will also involve Shaolin. The three of you should send a letter back!" Wudang Three Swords said in unison: "The master is right!" Saying that, Jishou saluted, and the four rushed away. Longhua Heavenly Way: "It's urgent, I'm a beggar, and I need to invite some helpers to deal with Empress Xi!"

Zhao Ziyuan said: "Senior, please go ahead." Long Huatian and the flying ax beggar held hands together and strode forward. The night is already very deep. The lights in the county town have been completely extinguished, the streets are deserted, and there is not even a single person. Zhao Ziyuan thought that since Mr. Lin Gao asked me to come, he would not break his promise! He turned two streets in a row, and suddenly saw the lights of a "Dragon Inn" in front of him. Zhao Ziyuan thought about it for a while, and when he raised his true energy, he was already on the roof.

This inn is not big, but there is a yard behind it. There are three houses in a row on the right side of the yard, and a living room in the middle. There is an Eight Immortals table in the hall. There are two pairs of cups and chopsticks on the table, but there are no dishes. Gaoren Gao sits as the chief, Wenhua and Wenhua are separated from each other.Zhao Ziyuan stomped on the tiles on purpose, but Lin Gao suddenly raised his head and asked, "Brother Zhao?" Zhao Ziyuan floated down and said: "It's Xiao Ke!" Lin Gaoren laughed and said: "Brother Zhao is a trustworthy person, and you are indeed here, come here, I have been waiting for a long time, please come in!"

Zhao Ziyuan walked in, and the two sat down as guest and host. Zhao Ziyuan said: "My humble life is all thanks to Brother Lin, and Xiao Ke is here to thank you!" Lin Gao said: "A bosom friend, what's the point of thanking you, Brother Zhao, don't say anything else!" While speaking, Wen Hua and Wen Wen had already served cold dishes. After drinking for three rounds, Zhao Ziyuan observed carefully, but he couldn't see the real identity of Lin Gaoren. When he raised his eyes, he heard a loud hissing sound, and a pile of silver needles as thin as a cow's hair struck from outside the window!

It happened suddenly, Zhao Ziyuan couldn't help being startled. But at this time, his internal energy was already extraordinary, and he responded quickly. With a sudden wave of his hand, all the silver needles were swept away by his palm. Lin Gaoren was shocked and said: "There are assassins!" Wen Hua and Zhang Wen were moved when they heard the sound, the two of them got up in a hurry, separated themselves and rushed outside, holding one of them in the moment, Zhao Ziyuan was shocked when he saw it, and said: "Miss Zhen, so it's you?" Zhen Lingqing Cold voice:

"Can't you think of it?" Lin Gaoren said coldly: "Who are you?" Zhen Lingqing said: "You are not worthy to ask!" Lin Gaoren sideways said to Zhao Ziyuan: "Brother Zhao, why did this woman plot against you?" Zhao Ziyuan sighed: "It's a long story." Lin Gao said: "I don't know if brother Zhao can speak on his behalf, but if the matter is important, it's fine not to speak." Zhao Ziyuan said: "It had nothing to do with Hongyin, but it was a misunderstanding!" Lin Gaoren snorted, he had already drawn out Zhao Ziyuan's words, so he sat on the side without saying a word.

Zhao Ziyuan paused and said: "Miss Zhen, there is one thing that you would never dream of!" Zhen Lingqing said coldly: "Are you still making up stories for me?" Zhao Ziyuan shook his head and said: "It's not necessary. Xiao Ke originally stayed in Taizhao Castle, but because he discovered a big secret, he came here after chasing the girl all the way." Zhen Lingqing said, "Why are you chasing me?" Zhao Ziyuan said: "Do you know who died on that mountain?" Zhen Lingqing said angrily: "What do you mean by that, the one who died on the mountain was clearly my father, could it be someone else!"

Zhao Ziyuan laughed and said: "That's right, it's someone else!" Zhen Lingqing was taken aback, and said after a long time: "Is what you said true or false?" Zhao Ziyuan said: "Xiao Ke has no need to lie to the girl. There is one thing, Xiao Ke needs to ask the girl to remember it well!" Zhen Lingqing said urgently: "Remember what?" Zhao Ziyuan said: "How many years have you lived in Taizhaobao?" Zhen Lingqing snorted and said: "Are you interrogating the prisoner as a magistrate?" Lin Gaoren suddenly interjected:

"Brother Zhao, I just heard that you called this girl Zhen, and now you mentioned the matter of Taizhaobao. Presumably this girl is the daughter of Lord Zhen of Taizhaobao?" Zhao Ziyuan nodded and said: " good!" Lin Gaoren said with a smile: "Tonight and Hexi, getting to know Brother Zhao next time and Miss Zhen for the second time is the greatest pleasure in my life. Come on, let me toast you first, let's talk slowly if we have something to say!" It was an extremely tense scene, but after he calmly resolved it, the smell of gunpowder has been greatly reduced. Both Zhao Ziyuan and Zhen Lingqing were too embarrassed to show their mastery, so they had no choice but to hold up their wine glasses, and with Lin Gaoren's persuasion and Wenhua Wenwen's company, they had a drink with each other! Lin Gaoren said with a smile: "I just heard Brother Zhao say that this matter is a misunderstanding, and the ancients said that it is a good idea to drink and talk. Under such circumstances, I believe the two of you will clear up your suspicions immediately!" Zhen Lingqing said coldly: "Of course I'd like to listen to him, but he's asking people in that manner, so please forgive me for not being able to answer." Lin Gaoren said with a smile: "Girl, don't be offended. According to what I heard from the side, brother Zhao's attitude is extremely peaceful and not aggressive!" He smoothed things over for Zhao Ziyuan here and now, and Zhao Ziyuan was extremely grateful. Zhen Lingqing thought that it might be because I have too much prejudice against him, so I feel annoyed when he asks me, but since he wants to clarify this matter, why don't I just listen to his explanation, and then turn around and think about it. , then said to Zhao Ziyuan: "To tell you the truth, I lived in Taizhaobao for five years." Zhao Ziyuan said: "Don't blame the girl, Xiao Ke still wants to ask!" Zhen Lingqing snorted: "Just ask!" Zhao Ziyuan said: "Where did the girl live before she arrived at Jokhang Fort?" Zhen Lingqing thought for a while, she didn't seem to want to answer this question, Zhao Ziyuan had already seen through her intentions, and said again: "This matter is of great importance, Xiao Ke desperately hopes that the girl will answer truthfully." Zhen Lingqing sighed: "Okay; let me tell you, we originally lived in Tianshan." Zhao Ziyuan said with a slight movement in his heart: "At this time, only father and daughter live together, or is there someone else?" Zhen Lingqing said: "Only our father and daughter depend on each other for life!" Zhao Ziyuan said seriously: "Xiao Ke is going to talk about the topic now, please recall, is your father's disposition different before and now?" Zhen Lingqing was taken aback and said: "What do you mean by that sentence?" Zhao Ziyuan said: "Xiao Ke has her own reasons, please tell the girl directly." Zhen Lingqing really thought about it carefully and said: "The past is indeed very different from the present." Zhao Ziyuan said: "That's it. To tell you the truth, the dead person on the top of Taizhaobao Mountain is not your father Zhen Dingyuan!" Zhen Lingqing was taken aback and said: "What did you say? Then..." She couldn't believe her ears. She was so surprised that she couldn't even continue with the following words. Zhao Ziyuan said calmly: "That's right, that person is not your father, but Sima Daoyuan!" Zhen Lingqing's heart was shocked even more, and he blurted out: "Sima Daoyuan, Sima Daoyuan..." Zhen Lingqing's shock at this time, I'm afraid no one can understand, she just sat there dumbfounded and didn't speak for a long time. Although Lin Gaoren's expression remained calm on the surface, the horror in his heart did not seem to be under Zhen Lingqing's. You must know that he has lived outside the customs for a long time, and he may be a little unfamiliar with the people in the Central Plains, but he has been familiar with Zhen Dingyuan's name for a long time. So he didn't show any expression, because he had other worries in his heart.After a while, I heard Zhen Lingqing say: "How could it be him? Oh! Sima Daoyuan is my cousin!" Zhao Ziyuan said seriously: "Xiao Ke will never lie to the girl, the deceased is indeed Sima Daoyuan." He paused, and then said: "The girl has been by his side for five years. Apart from other things, his expressionless face alone should be known as a disguise. Xiao Ke also saw that his face remained unchanged after death, and she became suspicious. , so I wiped it with my hands, but I didn't know that the human skin mask was wiped off with one wipe, and that's why I made this discovery." Zhen Lingqing pondered and said: "I kind of understand now!" Zhao Ziyuan said: "What did the girl understand?" Zhen Lingqing said: "My father and I originally lived in Dashan, but one day, Sima Daoyuan passed by suddenly. Although I was young at that time, I still remember it very clearly." Zhao Ziyuan said: "It seems that the situation was about twenty years ago, right?" Zhen Lingqing said: "I don't remember the exact time. I seem to have heard Sima Daoyuan tell my father that he was being hunted down by professional swordsmen in a hurry. He has nowhere to hide now. Tianshan Mountain is more secretive, and it has been sealed by ice and snow all year round. That's why I want to ask my father to take him to find a place to hide!" Zhao Ziyuan said: "Your father agreed?" Zhen Lingqing said: "That's right, my father agreed, but my father has been away for five days. When he came back, his face became very dull. How was my situation at that time? He only responded vaguely, but once I was there Tianshan discovered a strange thing!" Zhao Ziyuan said: "What strange thing?" Zhen Lingqing said: "That day I found two big men on the peak, one black and one white, they asked me everywhere about Sima Daoyuan's whereabouts. Nature is no exception." Zhao Ziyuan said: "What happened next?" Zhen Lingqing sighed: "Then my father suddenly appeared, and he..." Speaking of this, her face was full of shock, as if the past events of those years ago appeared before her eyes again. Zhao Ziyuan, Lin Gaoren, Wenhua and Wenhua saw that Zhen Lingqing spoke later, not only his voice trembled, but his face also changed color, and they all looked at her with concern. Zhao Ziyuan said: "Miss Zhen, what happened to your father?" Zhen Lingqing let out a long breath and said: "When my father first saw the two men, one black and one white, for some reason, his appearance suddenly became crazy. He yelled and suddenly fell to the ground." Zhao Ziyuan said: "Did your father have a stroke?" Zhen Lingqing said: "At that time, I only knew that he had a stroke, and the two men, one black and one white, walked over, looked at my father very carefully, and the two discussed it." Lin Gao asked humanely, "What did they say later?" Zhen Lingqing said: "Just listen to that black-faced guy say, just tear him up!" Zhao Zi forgave and said: "Tear it up? Could it be that those two people are going to attack your father?" Zhen Lingqing said: "Exactly, Xuan heard the white-faced man say: Isn't it a pity to tear it up? It's not easy for him to practice martial arts like this. We might as well treat him like a stone and go to the Central Plains martial arts to ask the way?" The black-faced man thought for a while before saying: "Okay, okay!" So, the white-faced man circled around my father. At that time, I saw that something was wrong and wanted to stop them, but strange things happened again. " Both Zhao Ziyuan and Lin Gaoren had strange looks on their faces. They both seemed to want to say something, but then held back. Zhen Lingqing paused, then said: "At that time, I wanted to rush forward, but unexpectedly I couldn't move my entire body. It was as if a wall of wind blocked me in front of me. I wanted to yell and curse, but the thirty-six acupoints all over my body seemed to be sealed, and I could neither move nor speak. I can only watch that white-faced man circle around my father!" Zhao Ziyuan sighed: "Tiangang Shuangsha! Tiangang Shuangsha! On the surface, they may only look like middle-aged people, but in fact they are all over a hundred years old." Lin Gaoren smiled slightly and said: "Yes, they are Tiangang Shuangsha Sha!" Zhao Ziyuan was stunned and said: "Brother Lin has always been only in Hainan, so he knows the names of these two old demons?" Lin Gaoren hastily concealed: "Brother Zhao, to tell the truth, when I was studying with my teacher, I heard what my teacher said." Zhao Ziyuan said: "From this point of view, Lingshi must be a different person from the martial arts senior?" Lin Gaoren smiled lightly and said: "Don't dare, dare not, let's listen to Miss Zhen and continue." Zhao Ziyuan originally wanted to inquire about Lin Gaoren's mentorship, but who knew that Lin Gaoren brought the question to him with just a few words, and his quick response was really superior to others. Zhen Lingqing said again: "The white-faced man circled my father for a while, and then the black-faced man followed suit. The two of them walked around for a while, and the black-faced man suddenly lifted my father from the ground, muttering something, and then Seeing his hands waving wildly, the sound of "hissing" sounded repeatedly, and the clothes on my father's body were peeled off by him. " The four people sitting next to each other were all motionless at the moment, as if they didn't take such strange actions as Gang Shuangsha that day at all. Lin Gao said humanely: "What happened afterwards?" Zhen Lingqing said with a blushing face: "At this time, my father was almost naked. The black-faced man lifted my father with one hand, and scratched at the snow with the other hand. In an instant, he caught a hole in the snow, and he buried my father alive!" Zhao Ziyuan said: "This is not buried alive. They are using a soul-destroying method. All the perceptions and memories of the soul-destroyed person remain the same, and the actions are the same as usual, but there is only one thing that he cannot control himself!" Lin Gao said: "Brother Zhao has a lot of knowledge and knowledge, but I don't know what he can't do by himself?" Zhao Ziyuan said: "Mind!" Lin Gao said: "Everything is from the heart, if a person loses his mind, it is no different from death." Zhen Lingqing continued: "After my father was buried alive in the ice cellar, it lasted almost a whole day and night, even I stood in the wind and snow for a whole day and night!" She paused and sighed: "At that time, I certainly felt overwhelmed, but I also thought that my father might have died long ago. At this moment, I was really at a loss and didn't know what to do. " Zhen Lingqing said: "Unexpectedly, after a day and a night, my father suddenly flew out of the ice cellar, his mental physique was the same as usual, but he was in awe of that black and white man. "Later, I only heard the black man say: "Go inside the pass and do what you ought to do: "My father hesitated for a while, and finally agreed respectfully. "Then the white-faced man said to me: "Little baby, you have seen what happened tonight, but you have to remember, you must never tell anyone about it, if you don't keep your promise, we can kill your father at any time! "Under the circumstances, I was naturally obliged to agree, but I asked: "My father was buried alive in the ice cellar for a day and a night, didn't any parts of his body suffer any damage? "The black-faced man shook his head and said: "No, no, there is nothing wrong with his body, even in martial arts, he has only advanced and not retreated. "I'm relieved after listening to it!" When Zhen Lingqing said this, Zhao Ziyuan said seriously: "What does that black-faced man want your father to do in the Central Plains? Didn't he say anything?" Zhen Lingqing said: "I didn't hear that, my father and I will go to Taizhao Castle in the future." Zhao Ziyuan said: "That's it. After your father arrived in Taizhao Castle, is his behavior different from the past?" Zhen Lingqing said: "That's right, it's because I was warned by that black-faced man. Although I felt that there was something strange in his behavior and didn't go into it, I didn't expect my father to be the incarnation of Sima Daoyuan. From this point of view, my father is afraid I was harmed by Sima Dao a long time ago!" Zhao Ziyuan pondered for a while, then said: "It's very possible, but what will the girl do in the future?" Zhen Lingqing said sadly and indignantly: "Since the matter is clear, I will naturally go to Tianshan to have a look. If my father was really killed by Sima Daoyuan, I will put this vengeance on Sima Qianwu!" Zhao Ziyuan sighed: "Grudges should be solved rather than tied. In fact, brother Qianwu has already made a lot of trouble because of his life experience. If the girl seeks revenge from him again, the consequences will be unimaginable!" Zhen Lingqing gritted her teeth and said: "Father's hatred is irreconcilable, if I want to let go of hatred, I'm afraid it will be harder than ascending to heaven!" When Zhao Ziyuan heard this, he couldn't help but remain silent. He can understand the mood of an avenger very well. Instead of asking him to persuade others, it is better to ask him to persuade himself, so he stopped talking. Zhao Ziyuan and others talked about it, and it was dawn at this time, and Lin Gaoren wanted to find a place for the two to rest, but they were anxious about something, and Zhen Lingqing was in a particularly heavy mood, so he got up to leave first. Not long after Zhen Lingqing left, Zhao Ziyuan and Lin Gaoren talked for a while, and at this moment the color was bright, Zhao Ziyuan got up and said: "Brother Lin, I should go too!" Lin Gaoren said in surprise: "Brother Zhao Are you leaving without taking a break?" Zhao Ziyuan said: "Troubled with mundane affairs, we will meet again in the future!" Lin Gaoren sighed and said: "I hit it off with brother Zhao, I hope we can meet again in the future!" Zhao Ziyuan said: "Xiao Ke also thought the same way. Brother Cheng Lin rescued each other and was invited to drink with each other again. This situation and scene is something I will never forget for the rest of my life. I dare not say thanks for my great kindness. I just want to remember my heartfelt gratitude." Lin Gaoren shook his head and said: "Since you are a confidant, why don't you say thank you again, brother Zhao is cautious, forgive me, I will send you off soon." The two walked and talked, and Lin Gao kept sending Zhao Ziyuan to the door, and then they shook hands and said goodbye. Zhao Ziyuan left the county seat and walked straight to the main road. One night after a few days. Shaoshi Peak of Songshan Mountain was completely silent, the bells of the hateful evening prayer and the sound of Sanskrit singing made it extremely solemn and solemn. At this moment, a figure flew up, and when he saw the peak of Shaoshi Peak, he raised his eyes and glanced at the cloud-like Shaolin Temple hall, thinking: "Maybe I came at the right time, Shaolin hasn't been disturbed yet!" While thinking about it, I suddenly saw four monks in green clothes walking out from one left and one right. An older monk said in a deep voice: "Where does the benefactor come from?" The man said: "Xiao Ke is in a hurry and wants to see the abbot of your temple!" The monk said coldly: "The abbot of our temple does not see visitors at night. This has been a long-standing practice. Please come tomorrow if the benefactor has something to do!" The man shook his head and said: "Xiao Ke also knows that he can come again tomorrow, but this matter is unusual, Senior Brother Wan Wang will report it on his behalf!" The monk's face sank and he said: "What's the matter with the benefactor? Can you tell the poor monk?" That human said: "The matter is urgent and important, Xiao Ke must tell the abbot of your temple in person?" The monk said: "The important place of Shaolin Buddhism, the benefactor came sneakily, and he said that he must tell the abbot face to face. Is the abbot of Shaolin so easy to see?" The man hurriedly said: "But senior brother really wants Xiao Ke to go back and come back tomorrow?" The monk nodded and said: "good!" The man pondered for a while, then said: "Xiao Ke came all the way from thousands of miles away, if he can't meet the abbot of your temple to report this news, as far as Xiao Ke is concerned, there is nothing wrong with this trip, but if Shaolin suffers any disasters afterwards, I am afraid that the senior brother will not be able to bear the responsibility Bar?" The man said disdainfully: "The almsgiver's words are alarmist, what's the matter to see the abbot of this temple?" The man said: "Xiao Ke has made it clear, since the senior brother refuses to report, Xiao Ke can only go back!" After all, I really turned around and left. He had just taken two steps when he suddenly heard the hateful person shout: "stop!" The man said coldly: "But senior brother called Xiao Ke to stop?" The hater snorted: "Besides you, here and now, who else is the poor calling for?" His attitude was bad, the man endured for a while, and said: "Xiao Ke Ruyan stood still, dare to ask senior brother what he has learned?" The hateful man said in a deep voice: "where do you come from?" The man smiled and said: "Xiao Ke just said that Xiao Ke comes from thousands of miles away!" The hater snorted: "It can be found anywhere thousands of miles away, isn't there any town?" That human said: "No, Xiao Ke is from Taizhao Castle." As soon as the words "Taizhaobao" came out, the faces of the four hated people changed, their bodies moved, and they surrounded the person tightly. The man glanced at the four monks and said: "If the four of you refuse to inform the abbot, can I talk to Master Juehai instead!" When the four monks heard this, their faces changed completely, and they shouted: "If it's them!" The man frowned, for a moment he couldn't figure out what the four hateful people meant, but at this moment, the four monks attacked him with their palms. The man was shocked and said: "Why did the four senior brothers join forces with each other?" He said, retreating a foot away. The monk who spoke earlier said: "What did you find Jue Haishi Bo Ze?" That human said: "Xiao Ke and Master Jue Hai have had countless friendships. When he came to Shaolin this time, Master Jue Hai went ahead of Xiao Ke. He must have arrived?" The monk said coldly: "Yes, he is here, but his body is here!" Hearing this, the man couldn't help being shocked and said, "Why?" The monk hummed: "Can you still not know?" The man said anxiously: "How could Xiao Ke know about this, but I don't know who has harmed Master Hai. Will senior brother tell me?" The monk said angrily, "You asked Guang and said it knowingly, and you deceived me again. As soon as the man retreated, he shouted at the same time: "Brother misunderstood, Xiao Ke is definitely not the murderer who killed Master Jue Hai, the murderer who killed Master Jue Hai is actually someone else!" The monk smiled and said: "That's right! Even the poor monk doesn't know who the murderer of Uncle Juehai is, but you know better than us. Even if you are not the direct murderer, at least you are part of the murderer!" The man shook his head and said: "Wrong, wrong..." Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps, and four or five masked men in black came up from under the peak. The four or five men in black seemed to want to attract the attention of others, so they stepped on the footsteps very loudly on purpose. The monk pointed at the four or five black-faced men and said: "What's wrong? Isn't your companion here?" The monk in front of him was unreasonable, he was so angry that he was dying, just because the masked man in black appeared suddenly, he didn't care about it, and said anxiously: "Stop talking nonsense, go and inform the people of your temple to prepare!" The monk said coldly said coldly: "If I waited for you to greet me, Shaolin would have been razed to the ground!" The man relieved and said: "It turns out that your temple has already made preparations, Xiao Ke is relieved." The monk said: "The cat cries and the mouse fakes mercy!" The man gave a wry smile, didn't bother to explain to him, turned around, and suddenly heard one of the five masked men giggling and saying: "Old Zhao, your footsteps are so fast!"
