The blue clouds and blue clouds fall into the sky, and the slanting sun pours water.

I saw a ferry boat going down the river above the Han River, and there was only an old captain on the ferry.

The Bobo ferry was carrying an old Taoist priest with white hair and white beard, a fairy wind and a teenager.

The old Taoist priest was chatting with the young man at the moment of happiness, when he suddenly heard a loud voice on the river coming from afar: "Hehe, that man, stop the boat quickly, hand over the child obediently, and the Buddha will spare your life." Otherwise, don't blame the Buddha's iron pestle for being ruthless. ”

The voice came from the waves, and it was clear to the ears, and it was obvious that the internal strength of the caller was not weak.

The old Taoist priest raised his head and saw two river boats rowing like flying arrows.

When I looked at it, I saw a big bearded man sitting on the tip of a small boat in front of me, rowing with both hands on the oars, and there were two children, a man and a woman, sitting in the cabin.

There was a large ship in the back, with a few Mongolian monks standing in the boat, and seven or eight stout military attachés.

The military attachés picked up the board of the boat and helped them paddle the water, although the bearded man had great arm strength, and the small boat rushed to the end of the boat as soon as he pulled the oars, but after all, there were many people on the boat behind, and the two boats were getting closer and closer.

After a short time, the military attachés and monks bent their bows and arrows and shot at the big man, but they heard the feather arrows breaking through the air and whining.

I saw that the big man rowed with his left hand and raised a wooden oar with his right hand, and he blocked and shot down the arrows one by one, and his technique was very swift.

The old Taoist priest hated the Mongolian officers and soldiers for killing the Han people the most in his life, and he wanted to rescue them immediately.

Then he shouted to the captain who rocked the boat, "Boatman, meet it." ”

That captain was just a small citizen, and when he saw the arrow flying around just now, he was already scared and weak. It's too late to row the boat away, how dare you meet the past? Old Daoist... You... You're telling jokes. ”

Seeing that the situation was urgent, the old Taoist priest had no choice but to quickly grab the swaying oar and wrench it twice in the water. The ferry crossed the bow of the boat and headed for the oncoming boat.

Suddenly I heard a miserable cry of "ah", and the boy in the boat was hit by an arrow in his vest.

The bearded man was startled, leaned over to look, and suddenly, there were arrows in his shoulders and back, and the wooden oars in his hands were uncertain. Falling into the center of the river, he did not move when he boarded the boat, and the big boat behind him caught up in an instant, and seven or eight Mongolian military attachés and monks jumped on the boat.

The bearded man was unyielding, punching and kicking, struggling to resist.

The old Taoist priest shouted: "Tartar stop, Hugh has to commit murder and hurt people!"

Just as he was about to shake twice and lean over, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure rushing to the shore, and the man was only a little on the shore, and then jumped more than ten feet to the river.

Just when the old Taoist priest thought that this person was about to fall into the water, the person's left foot was a little on his right foot, and his body moved sideways on the river surface and jumped out of more than ten zhang, landing on the opposite boat.

Lao Dao's eyes shrank: "What a powerful light skill." ”

After this man boarded the boat, on the boat, the sword light flashed, and in just a breath, those Mongolian military attachés and monks fell into the water one after another, and the battle was resolved in the blink of an eye.

The person who came was dressed as a scholar, and he looked less than twenty years old, but this young man actually had such a high skill, which surprised Lao Dao.

"Xiaoyou is really good. Lao Dao shook the oar twice, and then jumped lightly to the boat.

The person who came was Zhou Heng who came through the time, and he knew that the old Tao in front of him was the first master of Yitian, and even a legendary figure in history, the founder of the Wudang faction 'Zhang Sanfeng'.

Zhou Heng immediately smiled: "But Wudang Zhang Zhenren is in person!"

Zhang Sanfeng said: "It's the old way, Xiaoyou has seen the old way." ”

"I have indeed heard of Zhang Zhenren's name, but it is difficult to see the true face of the real person, I didn't expect to learn this today, the road is uneven, draw my sword to help, and indeed fulfill one of my wishes!" Zhou Heng had already thought of this reason.

While the two were talking, the little girl on the boat threw herself on a male corpse in the cabin, crying, "Daddy!

Zhou Heng looked at the girl's delicate and lovely appearance, and knew that this was Zhou Zhiruo when she was young, and couldn't help but shake her head: "It's a pity, it's a step too late." ”

Zhang Sanfeng looked at Zhou Zhiruo, who was crying miserably, and couldn't help sighing.

The man relieved himself at this time, hugged his fists regardless of his injuries and said: "Mingzun's seat often meets the spring to thank the engong, and has seen Zhang Zhenren. ”

"Brother Chang is polite, as a Han Chinese, I can't see my compatriots being chased and killed by the Tartars without saving them. Zhang Sanfeng didn't treat that man special because he was a member of the Demon Sect, but he smiled and waved his hand.

Zhou Heng walked over, picked up the little girl's father, and said to Zhang Sanfeng: "Zhang Zhenren, can you borrow your ferry to send this person ashore, so that the deceased can be buried in peace?"

Zhang Sanfeng looked at the boatman's corpse and said, "That's right." ”

When he saw Zhou Heng holding the boatman's body, he wanted to take the little girl to his boat, but he didn't expect Xin Han to say to the little girl first: "Little sister, it's good that my brother will take you to the boat over there." ”

Although Zhou Zhiruo was young but very sensible, she knew that this son was going to bury her father, so she nodded tearfully.

Zhou Heng held the boatman's body in one hand and Zhou Zhiruo in the other, and tapped his toes on the boat, and then took the two of them to the ferry over there.

Zhang Sanfeng saw that Zhou Heng took the two of them to perform light skills, lifting weights as lightly, effortlessly, and still so elegant, he couldn't help but praise in his heart.

When he turned around, he saw that the Mingjiao man named Chang Yuchun was pale, so he took out the pill, fed it into his mouth, rowed the boat to the side of the ferry, and waited to help him cross the boat.

Zhang Sanfeng also returned to the ferry and instructed the old man to dock the boat, and then treated Chang Yuchun's wounds.

When the boat arrived on the shore, a few people were hastily buried, and everyone returned to the boat, Zhang Sanfeng thought: "At the moment, Wuji can't walk, if you go to Laohekou to invest in the store, this man is a prisoner, I have to take care of the two, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to be thoughtful." ”

He took out two or three taels of silver and handed it to the father-in-law, and said, "Brother father-in-law, I bother you to go down the river to the east, pass the immortal crossing, and send us to the Taiping store to stay." ”

Seeing that several people knew martial arts, the captain was already in awe, plus there was a corpse in the boat, not to mention that he had given so much silver, and he was proficient in human warmth, so he naturally agreed at the moment, and rocked the boat along the east of the river.

Chang Yuchun knelt down on the deck and kowtowed, and said: "This son and Zhang Zhenren saved the villain's life, and Chang Yuchun kowtowed to you two." ”

Zhou Heng stretched out his hand to help him up and said, "Brother Chang doesn't need to make this big gift. I touched his palm, but I felt that the tentacles were cold, and I was slightly startled. asked, "Is Brother Chang still suffering internal injuries?"

Chang Yuchun said: "Since Xinyang escorted the little lord south, the villain fought several times with the imperial eagle dog sent by the Tartars to hunt down on the way, and gave a monk two slaps on his chest and vest. ”

Zhou Heng said to Zhang Sanfeng: "Please also ask Zhang Zhenren to show this big brother." ”

Zhang Sanfeng walked over and took the pulse of Chang Yuchun. But the beating was weak, and when he untied his clothes and looked at the wound, he was even more shocked, only to see that his middle palm was swollen a little, and the injury was really not light. If you are a bystander, you can't support it for a long time, this person travels thousands of miles, resists strong enemies, and is really a hero.

At that moment, he was ordered not to speak, and to lie down in the cabin to recuperate.

Zhou Zhiruo is about ten years old, with old clothes and bare feet, although she is a poor girl from the boat family, she has a beautiful face, and she is definitely a stunning beauty embryo, at this time she is very dependent on Zhou Heng, and her two little hands hold Zhou Heng's clothes and sit quietly aside.

Zhang Sanfeng saw that she was pitiful and asked, "Girl, what's your name?"

The girl said, "My surname is Zhou, and my name is Zhiruo." ”

Zhang Sanfeng praised: "Good name, where does your family live? Who else is in the family? We will ask the boat boss to send you home." ”

Zhou Zhiruo wept and said: "I just lived on the boat with my father and father, and I didn't ...... anymore There is no one else. ”

Zhang Sanfeng snorted and thought, "She's a ruined family, little girl." How do you place her?"

Zhou Heng took the opportunity to say: "I see that the little girl has excellent muscles and bones, and she is a good material for sword practice, it is better for Zhang Zhenren to include her in Wudang, so as to teach her a place to live." ”

Zhou Zhiruo suddenly spoke: "Childe, can I follow you, I will do anything by boiling water and cooking." ”

Zhou Heng was a little tempted when he heard her say it, but if this girl said this in a few years, he would really agree, but now that she is so old, how can she take care of the child, and besides, he has always been used to being alone, and it is inconvenient to do some things, so take the child with him.

Then he opened his mouth and refused: "I still have something to do, it's inconvenient to take you with me, so you follow Zhang Zhenren, and I'll go to see you when I'm done." ”

Zhou Zhiruo's face darkened when she saw his refusal, and she lowered her head.

Zhang Sanfeng was a little embarrassed: "My Wudang are all male disciples, but it is inconvenient, it is better for me to introduce her to the Emei extermination master Taimen, the female disciples of the Emei faction are the majority, and she will have a good response after she goes." ”

Zhou Heng saw that Zhou Zhiruo was silent, so he had to take out a pale yellow brocade silk, sit on the side of the boat and take some of the flowing water in the river, study the ink, write his name on it, and a Q version of the portrait of a man with a sword on his back, and comforted her and said that he would definitely go to see her in the future, and Zhou Zhiruo agreed.

I arrived at the Taiping store at the second watch this night. Zhang Sanfeng ordered the ship to anchor far away from the town.

The captain went to the town to buy food, cooked food, and opened it on the small table in the cabin, and cooked four large bowls of chicken, meat, fish, and vegetables.

Zhang Sanfeng asked everyone to eat first, and he fed Zhang Wuji.

Chang Yuchun asked the reason on the side, and Zhang Sanfeng said that his cold poison invaded his viscera to point his various acupoints to temporarily save his life.

Zhang Wuji was sad in his heart, Jing couldn't swallow it, and when Zhang Sanfeng fed it again, he shook his head and refused to eat it again.

Zhou Zhiruo wanted to replace Zhang Sanfeng to feed Zhang Wuji, but was stopped by Zhou Heng: "Zhang Zhenren, I think that the little brother Wuji doesn't like to eat is not his reason, but the reason for this meal." ”

Zhang Sanfeng was puzzled and wondered: "This meal is already very rich, how can it be a meal." ”

"You wait first, I'll go back when I go, and make sure that the little brother Wuji can eat by himself. With that, he left the boat and went ashore, heading in the direction of the town.

Everyone was also strange, and even Zhang Wuji himself was curious, wanting to see if he could make people with cold poison and no appetite take the initiative to eat.

After waiting for a stick of incense, he saw Zhou Heng holding a wooden jar in one hand and a large bag of food in the other.

Watching Zhou Heng constantly add ingredients and seasonings to various dishes, when he finished his busy work, everyone saw a thick layer of red oil floating on the broth water, and suddenly, the air was filled with a spicy smell.

Zhou Heng rolled the cut beef and mutton slices with the seasonings and soup in the wooden can, and it was already cooked: "Come to Wuji, you can taste it, if you don't like to eat, Brother Zhou, I won't force you." ”

Zhang Wuji somehow, just smelling the fragrance of the boiling soup and became appetizing, Wen Yan picked up the chopsticks and put a piece of mutton in his mouth, his eyes lit up, and he swallowed it in a few bites.

Then, without saying a word, he took the chopsticks and ate big.

Zhang Sanfeng was curious, and he also picked up chopsticks and took a piece of meat from the wooden plate, and when he put it in his mouth, he suddenly felt a hot smell that he had never experienced before.

He was suddenly startled, and his first thought was that this kid was poisoned, but under the operation of internal qi, there was no sign of poisoning, and there was no discomfort in his body except for the heat in his mouth.

"What is this? Why is it so hot. ”

This crop of chili pepper was introduced into China in the early Ming Dynasty, at this time the Yuan and Mengmeng were not extinguished, and the Ming Dynasty had not yet been established.

Chang Yuchun saw the sweetness of Zhang Wuji's food, so he picked up the chopsticks and tasted the vegetables in the wooden plate, his eyes lit up, and then he ate a few big bites, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

He is a Mingjiao, so he only eats vegetarian dishes, and he is not moved by meat at all, but fortunately, there are a lot of ingredients in this plate, and Zhou Heng put vegetables, mushrooms, tofu and other vegetarian food, but it is not bad for him to eat.

Zhou Heng said with a smile: "This thing is called Lao Gan Ma, the ingredient for making Lao Gan Ma is chili peppers, which is the most spicy one of the various materials in the world. ”

He said and beckoned Zhang Sanfeng and Zhou Zhiruo to start, Zhou Zhiruo ate a few bites, and couldn't stand the heat, so she hurriedly ran to drink a few sips of water, but couldn't help but be tempted to eat again.

Zhang Sanfeng was not taboo in meat and vegetarian, and after eating a few large bites of meat slices, he suddenly felt that his body was hot, knowing that this thing had the effect of warding off the cold, he happily glanced at Zhang Wuji, who was still eating and drinking, and was even happier in his heart.

Zhang Sanfeng couldn't help but say: "This chili pepper is indeed a good thing, I don't know if Xiaoyou still has it, I plan to prepare some for Wuji." ”

Although it couldn't relieve Zhang Wuji's cold poison, it was at least an excellent food for his condition, and it solved Zhang Wuji's anorexia problem, so Zhang Sanfeng had no choice but to ask Zhou Heng for it cheekily.

Zhou Heng said: "Zhang Zhenren rest assured, although this chili pepper is rare, it is not expensive, and I will get some for the little brother Wuji when I get back." ”

After the meal, Zhang Sanfeng chatted with Zhou Heng, and became curious about his life experience, and asked: "Little brother, I see that you are excellent in swordsmanship, I don't know which sect and which sect you are?"

Zhou Heng said with a smile: "My kung fu is inherited from the Qingcheng faction, but I really don't have much to do with the current Qingcheng faction... , is it just this swordsmanship..."

Zhang Wuji had a good impression of Zhou Heng at the moment, and hurriedly asked, "How is the swordsmanship...?"

Zhou Heng said with some embarrassment: "If I say it, you will definitely think that I am arrogant and ignorant." ”

Zhang Sanfeng smiled: "But it's okay to say it, you can just say it." ”

Zhou Heng said: "My swordsmanship, in this world, should be unrivaled, the world's first swordsmanship." ”

Zhang Sanfeng was stunned, with some displeasure on his face, obviously thinking that Zhou Heng was talking big.

Zhang Wuji pouted directly and said, "Brother Zhou is really good at bragging." ”

Chang Yuchun also said: "Engong, I have to say a fair word, aren't you playing a big knife in front of Guan Gong, who in the world doesn't know whether it is fists and feet, Zhang Zhenren is the first in the world." ”

Zhang Sanfeng was hurriedly dismissed by him: "The old way has just lived a little longer, and he can't be called the first in the world." ”

Zhou Zhiruo obviously also saw that these people all said that Xin Han was wrong, so he hurriedly said: "I believe that Gongzi's swordsmanship is the best in the world." ”

Zhou Heng smiled and touched Zhou Zhiruo's head: "I'll just say it or not, no one will believe it if I tell the truth." ”

Zhang Sanfeng saw that everyone didn't believe it, and was afraid that Zhou Heng would be too embarrassed, so he said: "Since the little brother is so confident, he must also be extremely good at swordsmanship, and it is not far from being the first." ”

Zhou Heng said with a smile: "Zhang Zhenren, it's not that the kid is arrogant, if you talk about swordsmanship, the kid can't be compared with Zhang Zhenren, but if you talk about this swordsmanship, the kid doesn't dare to be arrogant, this is the world's first swordsmanship, and it deserves it." ”

"Oh?" Zhang Sanfeng heard the meaning of Zhou Heng's words, not that he made the sword the first in the world, but that this swordsmanship itself was the first swordsmanship in the world.

Zhang Sanfeng immediately became interested: "I don't know what the name of this swordsmanship is Xiaoyou, who created it?"

Chang Yuchun and Zhang Wuji also heard the meaning, and waited curiously for Zhou Heng to explain.

"Hehe, my swordsmanship is not something that can be possessed in the mortal world, to count the immortals. Zhou Heng smiled slightly.

Zhang Sanfeng has practiced martial arts all his life, and he is naturally a person who is obsessed with martial arts, at this time, when he heard such a subtle swordsmanship, where can he endure it, and immediately said: "It's a pity that I have never seen such a subtle swordsmanship, I wonder if Lao Dao can live two tricks with Xiaoyou?"

His invitation to fight, not only others were surprised, but even Zhou Heng was surprised, this is Zhang Sanfeng, a name represents a person in the martial arts era, a living legend, and even in later generations, he has a great influence, known as the martial arts master of the immortals.

Even in Jin Lao's martial arts, his status is no worse than anyone else, his martial arts principles, and even through the shackles of the world, it can be said that people like Zhang Sanfeng can't become immortals, or the broken void flies away, definitely because the upper limit of the world is so. How can such a person not be surprised when he invites him to fight, and after being surprised, he is happy, and he can fight Zhang Sanfeng, such an opportunity is rare.
