Chapter 51: Wind-Cooled Walking

After chasing for several miles, we turned to the mountain road, and the trees deepened. Nie Liang said: "Let's chase it so far, didn't the hook stop the wind have wings? Why haven't you seen it yet?" Lin Xi said: "The little missionary is very evil, and there may be other spells to help you abscond." ”

Chase out another three or four miles, white smoke curls in the distance, and the smoke village appears. The six of them hurried to the house, and suddenly saw a man sitting on a stone under the big tree in front of them, throwing a flat pole in the middle of the mountain road, blocking the way.

The man, dressed in black, sat on a stone and leaned against a pile of firewood. Holding a short knife in both hands, he flipped it up and down and played with it, his expression was scattered, his eyes were deep, and although he was staring at the short knife, he didn't seem to be looking at the short knife. There was a piece of black jade on the stone next to it. When Lin Xi, Nie Liang and the others came to him, he was lonely, still fiddling with the short knife. The indifference and loneliness revealed all over the body. The wind tightened, and the leaves fell on him, and he didn't know it.

Zhang Lieyan changed color and said, "It's him, he knocked me unconscious just now!" Nie Liang stepped forward and said, "Your Excellency is the little missionary?"

The man looked up, shook his head, and said, "I'm not a little missionary. Nie Liang said: "Then Your Excellency has seen a thin man passing by?"

The man smiled and said, "You said me?" Nie Liang said, "Another thin man with a very pointed face. The man said, "Yes, I just left here." ”

Nie Liang wanted to move forward, but the man said, "Don't go, Dao Chief, you can stay with me for a while." Nie Liang knew that this person's martial arts were extremely profound, and he was eager to catch up with the envoy, and he didn't want to make a grudge against him, so he said: "I'm sorry, I'm going to chase that person, Your Excellency don't stop me." ”

The man sighed, "Do you think my short knife is fast?" As soon as the end of the note fell, the short knife had already stabbed out. Nie Liang hurriedly raised his sword to block the file, only to see that he was getting faster and faster, and it was difficult for him to attack back. Seeing this, Zhang Lieyan and Bai Yun stabbed out with their swords. The two of them made a great move with their swords, one attacking the man's waist and the other slashing at the man's lower plate. Nie Liang stabbed the man in the eyes. But I saw that the man turned around suddenly, the short knife whirled, and the three swords were forced away with a few "dangdangdang" sounds. Seeing that Nie Liang, Zhang Lieyan, and Bai Yun were still losing the upper hand together, Lin Xi stepped forward with a chain, and the flying chain hooked the man's soul. The man "huh", swiped the short knife and slashed the black dragon chain back. Mo Lian also took a long whip and stepped forward to help. Yun Youyou was anxious to see it on the side, gritted his teeth, and chased after him.

After a few more moves, I saw that the sky was full of sword shadows, the man in black suddenly dodged away, interspersed with short knives, Zhang Lieyan "ah", the long sword flew out, his wrist was almost cut off, and he retreated and hugged his hands. Lin Xi saw that the situation was urgent, and the chain couldn't hook the man's soul, so he anxiously wanted to use the amorous sword, but he was afraid of hurting Nie Liang and them.

Suddenly, he heard Mo Lian's "ahh The three of them were left behind. The man slowed down the knife, suddenly dodged and jumped out of the circle, shook his head and sighed, "Don't fight, don't fight." ”

Nie Liang said: "Why don't you fight?" The man said: "It's very hard to fight with you, people are tired, and their hearts are tired." Nie Liang smiled and said, "What do you mean?" The man shook his head and sighed, "You should sit here with me for a while." ”

Nie Liang said: "Okay, according to Your Excellency's words." Suddenly, the long sword stabbed the man in the throat. The man held the knife in his backhand, and slashed it suddenly, and the long sword "dangdang" several times, falling to the ground with fragments.

The man looked at Nie Liang's white and blue face, and sighed: "Daoist Nie, I have always admired your personality, thinking that you are an upright gentleman, even if the five of you beat me, I have always kept your hand on you, why do you want to sneak attack me?"

Nie Liangtie blushed and said, "You help that demon, how can I take care of morality?" The man sighed, looked at the direction of the sun, and sang: "Thousands of miles flutter to remove fallen leaves, and pedestrians outside the wall are tireless." He picked up the black jade on the boulder and slowly left west.

Lin Xi, Nie Liang, and Mo Lian looked at each other, not knowing why. Nie Liang said: "This person's martial arts are extremely profound, and it didn't take ten moves to kill Leng Bing Rin on the Yellow Crane Tower before, now that he is gone, let's chase after Gou and stop the wind." The five nodded and chased after them.

Chase to a stone pavilion, and see a stone step leading to the mountain. Nie Liang said: "Let's go up and have a look." "When I climbed the mountain, I saw a few bamboo huts, and there were green bamboos planted on all sides.

Lin Xi said: "We're just afraid that we will chase the wrong one, and the hook stop wind is not here." Suddenly, someone in a bamboo house in front of him shouted, "Nie Liang, don't you dare to come in?"

Nie Liang said, "Oh, who's calling me?" opened the door of the bamboo house and walked in. Seeing this, Lin Xi and the others also followed. I saw that the bamboo house was very elegant, with ink paintings hanging on the left and right, and green bamboo planted in the corner. Half of the bamboo curtain is rolled up at the window door to let the sunlight shine through the half window. A middle-aged man was sitting next to him, with a xylophone under his lap.

The middle-aged man said softly, "Mr. Nie, please take a seat." He pointed to a bamboo chair next to him. Nie Liang saw that this person was dressed very elegantly, like a scholar, and said, "Who are you?" ”

Nie Liang didn't sit down either, and said, "Your Excellency is ......" The man said: "The next surname is Zheng, and the single name is a bamboo." I also love this bamboo the most in my life. Nie Liang suddenly realized that he remembered someone. He remembered that Zheng Zhu was a good bamboo since he was a child, full of literary brilliance, poetry and talent, and he was a talented person of the times. And this person sharpens bamboo into a sword, and his swordsmanship is also very clever.

Zhang Lieyan said: "It turned out to be Mr. Zheng, what did Mr. Zheng call the head of my family before?" Zheng Zhu smiled and said: "I was afraid that Daoist Nie would disdain to come in, so I used words to provoke him, and I am very sorry." "Hold the bamboo piano away and hang it against the wall.

Nie Liang said: "It's okay. Zheng Zhu said: "I have heard of Nie Dao's name for a long time, and today I saw an extraordinary person." Seeing that Zhang Lieyan and Mo Lian were injured on their hands, he said, "I'll go get medicine for you." ”

Zhang Lieyan said: "No need! we still have to chase people." Zheng Zhu said with a smile: "Do you want to chase the long envoy of Gou?

Nie Liang and the others were overjoyed. Zhang Lieyan said: "How did Mr. Zheng catch him?" Zheng Zhufu put down the bamboo curtain and said with a smile: "This person came here in a hurry to ask for refuge, but I saw his identity, restrained his acupoint, and hid in the cabinet. He took the medicine from the bamboo cabinet next to him and put it on Zhang Lieyan and Mo Lian.

Nie Liang no longer doubted, moved away from the chair and sat down, and said: "Poor Dao has also heard of Mr. for a long time, but Mr. has traveled all over the world, and he doesn't know where to meet. ”

Zheng Zhu said: "I lived here after I went into hiding. I'm sorry, I only have two chairs here. Zhang Lieyan said, "It's okay!" sat on the spot. Zheng Zhu smiled and said, "Mr. Nie, you wait a while, I'll go and take out the tea." Nie Liang was about to refuse, but he had already gone.

Zhang Lieyan got up and went to pull the curtain that Zheng Zhu had pulled just now, and when he saw that there was a hook tied under the curtain, he breathed a sigh of relief. Zhang Lieyan smiled and said, "This dead boy, I finally can't run away!"

Lin Xi walked to the bamboo cabinet, secretly strange, and said in his heart: "Why do I feel weird?

Zheng Zhu retrieved the tea leaves, boiled another pot of water, and brewed a bamboo cup of tea for all five of them. smiled: "It just so happened that there were five bamboo cups the year before last, otherwise it would not be enough." Mr. Nie, this is my refined bamboo flower tea, you can taste it. ”

Nie Liang couldn't refuse, so he took the tea and tasted it, only to feel that although it was fragrant with bamboo, it was bitter and unpleasant, and it was really difficult to call it good. I endured it and drank it, and said, "This tea is not an ordinary tea." Zheng Zhu smiled: "Thank you Mr. Nie for the compliment." ”

Zhang Lieyan, Bai Yun and Mo Lian also took a sip, although they felt unpleasant, they didn't dare to say it directly. Lin Xi took the bamboo cup, saw that the tea was yellow and clear, took a sip, "vomited", spit on the bamboo board, and shouted: "What kind of tea is this?

Mo Lian next to him couldn't help but laugh, and said secretly: "You really deliberately slapped someone." Zheng Zhu took a rag and wiped off the tea on the bamboo board, and said, "Maybe you can't get used to it." Lin Xi was silent.

Nie Liang drank the tea dry and said, "Mr. Zheng, this person ...... That Gou stopped the wind and pretended to be a disciple of Fangwai Xiandao, entered the Yellow Crane Tower, and used strange magic to knock down Sanhua Monk, Jiang Hanshan, and Lu Jing, and many others, no one dared to fight. General Li Jing under the command of Li Yuan, the king of the Tang Dynasty, was going to appoint him as a general, and led his troops to attack Beiding and break the formation of the demons in Beiding. But I learned that this Gou Zhifeng is a small missionary, and you think, how can a small missionary have such good intentions?"

Zheng Zhu said: "Yes, the chief of the hook has no good intentions. Nie Liang said: "I'm afraid he wants to use Li Jing's soldiers and generals to spread small missions and make chaos in the world." Zheng Zhu changed color slightly and said, "There is this possibility." ”

Nie Liang said: "So I chased him all the way, and met strong enemies several times, if it wasn't for this son to save him, Poor Dao would have been poisoned by him." Zheng Zhu looked at Lin Xi and said, "Son's name?"

Lin Xi said: "Don't dare, nickname Lin Xi." Nie Liang said: "Fortunately, Mr. Zheng caught the hook and stopped the wind, otherwise I am afraid that he would have left early." When he said a word, Zheng Zhu answered, yes.

Nie Liang said: "Mr. Zheng, please hand over the hook to me, and I'll take it back and ask for clarification!" Zheng Zhu nodded and said, "Yes." But he didn't move. Nie Liang stood up and said, "Mr. Zheng wants to go together?"

Zheng Zhu smiled silently. Nie Liang said: "I'll take it away when I stop the wind." "I'm going to open the bamboo curtain. Suddenly, a person stepped in from outside the door, laughed and said, "You don't need to bring it, I'll take you!"

Nie Liang and the others turned their heads and couldn't help but change color in astonishment when they saw the person outside the door. Zheng Zhu said: "Haven't you fallen yet?" I saw Nie Liang, Zhang Lieyan, Bai Yun and Lin Xi Mo Lian shaking their heads and falling to the ground and fainting.

Gou Zhifeng walked in and said with a smile: "Thank you for your help." Zheng Zhu smiled and said, "It's just a little trick." I didn't expect Nie Liang to be so useless, and a little medicine would poison him. ”
