Chapter 5 The Experience of the Rivers and Lakes III

Zhuge Mo took the military book handed back by Yu Shao with an expressionless face and put it in his arms. Pen~Fun~Ge www.biquge.info What kind of person is Zhuge Mo, an extremely smart old man, a cunning old fox with strong martial arts. Zhuge Mo had already seen that Yu Shao was also a person with superior wisdom, although he was young, he was also comprehensive in doing things, and of course he also discovered Zhuge Feng's abnormality, but this young man had also found out, but he didn't tell him, maybe he didn't want to get involved in the internal strife of other people's sects. After returning the military book to him, he entered the inner hall with the little girl, sat on a chair and drank tea leisurely. It can be seen that this son understands very well in his heart, what a smart person. Unlike Dugu Hong, who has always stood by Zhuge Mo's side, although Zhuge Mo is not easy to open his mouth to let him leave, he also feels unhappy, he doesn't want to rectify his proud disciples in front of outsiders.

Duguhong thought that the two of them were extremely smart people, and they should cherish each other, but they didn't think it was the same thing. Dugu Hong would not have thought that smart people would only fight when they were together, although the two had nothing to do with each other, they were also naturally jealous, and there was an illusion that they were both born Yu and He Shengliang.

Although Zhuge Mo guessed Yu Shao's thoughts, he didn't expect that Yu Shao was a person with an amazing memory, and he had already put the war book in his mind. Next, regardless of Duguhong's presence, he called Zhuge Feng to the front and prepared to question.

But Zhuge Feng is not a stupid person, although the master usually treats him with his own eyes, but he also knows that the master is strict and does not recognize the six relatives, from the eyes of the master Zhuge Feng saw anger, smart people have no sympathy, this old man will never show mercy, not to mention that he stole the treasure of the town room of the 'Bagua Gate'.

Zhuge Feng has been planning for a long time for the 'Yin Yang Baguazhang', this master ostensibly passed on some of the moves of the 'Yin Yang Baguazhang' to his disciples, but none of them have learned it all, the supreme heart method of inhaling and exhaling is a secret but not passed on, he has three sons, and his martial arts are far more than his disciples, and he wants to pass on the position of the head to one of his sons, not giving other people in the Zhuge clan a chance, without the supreme heart support of the 'Baguazhang', this Baguazhang is also an empty shell. Zhuge Mo is cunning and cunning, and on the surface, he puts the cheats of the 'Yin Yang Bagua Palm' in the open and open, but no one has ever obtained his consent to borrow the cheats, and always says that the disciples have not practiced to the point, and it is useless to read it. No one was so bold to steal it, and even the two mysterious women failed to steal this martial arts secret book. I didn't worry about losing "Twenty-four Articles of the Art of War", and pretended to say to Duguhong that he was old and incompetent, and could he recover the military book for him. Dugu Hong is a righteous man, arrogant, without too many ideas, and his magic weapon 'Ghost Shadow' was also stolen, so he agreed to Zhuge Mo's request. It is said that such a treasure should be very precious, but Yu Shao wanted to borrow it, so he didn't say a word. On the surface, he looks like a righteous man and a gentleman, what is useless, it is nothing more than taking a fancy to Yu Shao's healing elixir, if he can get a prescription, then his reputation and status in the rivers and lakes will go to a higher level. Of course, Dugu Hong can't see it, Yu Shao is young after all, he has no experience, and he doesn't think about it. But Zhuge Feng saw that Dugu Hong came to Bagua Village with the strange Yu Shao, and immediately had an idea in his heart, and stole the secret book of the sect, originally wanting to make the master suspicious of Yu Shao, but this little trick even Yu Shao could see, and it could escape Zhuge Mo's eyes.

Zhuge Feng is about to make a move, Zhuge Feng is not defenseless, he has already transferred and hidden the stolen martial arts cheats, and he will not kill him until the master recovers the cheats, so he will simply be arrested.

"Feng'er, I usually treat you well, why did you do such a big rebellious act." Zhuge Mo subdued Zhuge Feng with one palm, and ordered people to tie him up, although he was angry, he asked with a little kindness on his face.

"Hmph, don't be pretty." Zhuge Feng had some backbone, and he didn't take the master in his eyes, although he knelt with his face facing the sky, he sneered at Zhuge silently.

Dugu Hong came out to plead, and watched Zhuge Feng take him all the way into Zhuge Bagua Village, and it was not easy to ignore it. said to Zhuge Mo: "It is inevitable that young people will make mistakes, as long as he hands over the cheats, go around him." ”

This is a big matter to clean up the portal, the Jianghu sect will never allow others to interfere, Dugu Hong's move is inevitably a little abrupt, if someone else else would have broken with Dugu Hong, but Zhuge Mo nodded, and said to Zhuge Feng: "For the sake of Dugu's intercession for you, I will temporarily detain you, as long as you hand over the secret book, I will not embarrass you." "That's a beautiful thing to say.

Zhuge Feng understands the master's character, is a cunning person with false benevolence and false righteousness, and is ruthless, otherwise the Bagua Sect would not have such a status in the rivers and lakes, not only has excellent martial arts, but also has the 'Tianyitang' of practicing medicine and selling medicine, and has become a very rich sect in the martial arts. With money and martial arts, Zhuge Mo has built himself into a great good man, but he is actually a scum. Zhuge Bagua Village has never been invaded by strong enemies, and the disciples of Bagua Sect do not need much powerful martial arts, as long as they protect the stable life of ordinary people and prevent some chickens and dogs from stealing, it is enough, so Zhuge Mo's martial arts only turn to his son to protect his own status. Zhuge Feng had inadvertently seen the 'Yin Yang Bagua Palm' displayed by his son, and he was incomparable to him. Therefore, Zhuge Feng paid attention to what the master did, all of which were insidious and cunning, on the surface, he was already much better than other disciples, but the more time passed, the more he felt that the master's hypocrisy and hypocrisy disguised his innocence. In fact, the two women were also brought out of Bagua Village by Zhuge Feng, such a delicate layout, no matter how powerful the martial arts master is, no one can lead the way, but the two women only stole the military book and did not get the secret book, Zhuge Feng was extremely disappointed, but he did not have the ability to fight with the two women who were first-class masters, so he had to watch them fly away. But the appearance of Yu Shao gave Zhuge Feng a new plan, and when he entered the village, he was close to Yu Shaotao, and found that this person was very interested in Yin and Yang gossip, and he was an elegant son who had no experience in martial arts, and he swore to escort a girl to the sea, and he was not in a hurry, but followed Dugu Hong to see the martial arts of Bagua Gate. This kind of person must be thirsty for the supreme gossip palm, at least what the young Zhuge Feng thought, he had the idea of stealing books and causing trouble, and when Yu Shao and Dugu Hong were chatting happily with the master, they came to Tibet and pried open the chains of the dark grid. The doorman saw that it was Zhuge Mo's proud disciple, and he didn't go to check it out, until Zhuge Mo came to find the medical classics in the middle of the night and found that the secret book of Baguazhang was missing.

Zhuge Mo did not continue to inquire about Zhuge Feng, because there was a 'incomprehensible' Dugu Hong beside him, and generously asked Dugu Hong and Yu Shao to go back to sleep, and also disbanded his disciples, anyway, Zhuge Feng couldn't escape from the palm of his hand, and went back to sleep peacefully. Several disciples of the Bagua Gate escorted Zhuge Feng, when passing by Yu Shao's side, Zhuge Feng glanced at Yu Shao, although Yu Shao also hated thieves, but he still had a good impression of Zhuge Feng, in the words of the interrogation just now, Yu Shao heard that Zhuge Feng was by no means a person who calculated the master, there may be something unspeakable, the old-timer Zhuge Mo was by no means a good person, Yu Shao had seen a head like Xiang Batian, and the head of the Bagua Sect Zhuge Mo was much more real, and he would not let go of Zhuge Feng, Yu Shao didn't like this exquisite descendant of Zhuge Liang who was like an immortal. Yu Shao admired Zhuge Feng's awe-inspiring atmosphere in front of his master, neither humble nor arrogant, and wanted to save Zhuge Feng, holding an iron sand in his hand, he flicked on the hemp rope that Zhuge Feng was tied with a 'snort', although the hemp rope was not interrupted, but Zhuge Feng already felt it, as long as he used his strength, he could break the hemp rope. The lights in the inner hall were dim, Dugu Hong and Zhuge Mo were still in the outer hall at the moment and did not hear it, the disciples who escorted them thought it was mosquitoes, there were many snakes, insects, rats and ants in the land of Nanban, and at night there was the buzzing of mosquitoes everywhere, these disciples had no internal cultivation, how could they distinguish the sound of iron sand emitted by Yu Shao.

By the dawn of the day, Zhuge Feng had already escaped from Zhuge Bagua Village, and Zhuge Mo had not yet known about it. Dugu Hong and Yu Shao said goodbye to Zhuge Mo early in the morning after experiencing last night's turmoil, and galloped away in the direction of Jinhua Mansion. Dugu Hong felt a little sorry, took Yu Shao to Zhuge Bagua Village, took advantage of the excitement and went away, not only sent out the 'musk white jade paste', but also experienced a boring turmoil, but the 'musk white jade paste' is indeed an elixir, the injuries of several brothers have improved significantly, and they returned to Shuanglong Cave Mansion to treat Yu Shao with a good reception to repay Yu Shao's gift of medicine.

Shen Bing was bored in the carriage, with a gauze curtain hanging on the window, and the morning sun illuminated the entire carriage through the curtain, which was warm. Shen Bing sorted out Yu Shao's baggage, folded the futon again, picked it up and put it at the end of the carriage, and a book fell out of the futon with a 'pop' sound, Shen Bing picked it up and took a look, and wrote a few seal characters on it'Yin Yang Baguazhang', of course she was born in a scholarly family. Could it be that Zhuge Feng's stolen "Yin Yang Bagua Palm" martial arts secret book was hidden in Brother Yuzi's carriage, Shen Bing was also present at that time to see Zhuge Mo lose this secret book, extremely anxious and angry, presumably this book is much more important than the "Twenty-four Chapters of the Art of War" borrowed by Brother Yu Zi, it is the treasure of the town room of the Bagua Gate, Zhuge Mo values it very much. Shen Bing is eccentric, sometimes whimsical, thinking that Brother Yu Zi is a person who practices martial arts, he must be interested in martial arts cheats, if Brother Yu Zi practices this 'Yin Yang Baguazhang' kung fu well, he can go further and better protect himself. But Brother Yuzi is a bright and upright man, arrogant, disdainful of other people's stolen things, it is better to return it to the Bagua Gate, but Zhuge Feng was almost killed by the master for this secret book, Brother Yuzi also secretly saved him, if he can still get out of the Bagua Village alive, give him this book, anyway, Brother Yuzi saved him, he must not be a bad person. But I can't let him be in vain, I will secretly remember the content of this book first, and if Brother Yuzi is useful, I can also write it to him. Thinking of these, Shen Bing read "Yin and Yang Bagua Palm".

Shen Bing is a smart little girl in ice and snow, although she doesn't understand the essence of martial arts in "Yin Yang Bagua Palm", she is very difficult to read, and she doesn't know any martial arts, so she can only memorize by rote. But Shen Bing, like Yu Shao, has never forgotten the text, and has memorized it after reading it. Shen Bing also knew that he had to hide this book, and he had already made a big move for this book, and now a group of strange martial arts people around him were dressed like grass cowards, although Brother Yu Zi called them brothers and sisters, and secretly guarded against them, Shen Bing even slept with Yu Shao, and knew Yu Shao's every move. So after Shen Bing read it, he hid the book under the car bench, pressed the futon again, and fell asleep with his head on the futon.

The southwest foothills of Jinhua Mountain in the northern suburbs of Jinhua Mansion are reckless in the forest and sea, the water is murmuring, and the scenery of the mountains and forests is something that Yu Shao has not seen in the Taihu Lake circle.

There are many dwellings on the mountainside, there are also large houses, Zhuge Mo arranged the carriage of the horse and Yu Shao in a large courtyard, some subordinates carefully took care of and guarded some of the vehicles that went out, here is like Duguhong's warehouse, in addition to the horse and cart, there is also a lot of backlog of swords and weapons, some have been rusted. This is also a place where outsiders come here to store their luggage and belongings, Dugu Hong doesn't want outsiders to enter the cave with weapons, even the thirty-six cave masters under his control, the head of the seventy-two peaks must also unload the sword and enter the house here, this is the rule, in the Shuanglong Cave Dugu Hong does not want to hear the sound of the sword, with his own martial arts, it is not difficult to suppress the fight of the people of this faction, but those thirty-six holes, the people of the seventy-two peaks are not so easy to control, those rabble, martial arts are generally temperamental, usually put righteousness on the lips, But when they get together, there are many contradictions, no one obeys anyone, and they use knives and guns at every turn, if it weren't for the Ssangyong Gang's wealth and wealth to suppress them, these self-righteous little gangs would fight every day, and make this side of the water and soil a miasma. Therefore, Dugu Hong simply unloaded their swords, so as not to fight and fight when they complained at home, so as not to make a mess of the natural cave.

Yu Shao came to the outer entrance of Shuanglong Cave with Dugu Hong, the entrance of the cave is spacious and Xuanlang, and the cave is extremely cool, "sweating like rain on the mountain, and being cool in the cave." There are rows of stone tables and stone chairs inside, which can accommodate thousands of people to drink tea and escape the heat. The stone of one green and one yellow on both sides is very similar to two dragon heads, and the three words of "Shuanglong Cave" on the west wall of the cave entrance are said to be the handwriting of the Tang people; The word "Dongtian" on the east wall is the ink treasure of Wu Lin, a calligrapher in the Song Dynasty.

There is a huge screen stone between the inner and outer caves, and only a narrow underground river communicates. Dugu Hong took out two leather coats and asked Yu Shao and Shen Bing to put them on, the cave was so cold that Shen Bing had already sneezed a few times in succession. Duguhong said: "If you want to enter the inner cave, you can only lie in a small boat, rub the cliff on your back and enter against the water, and you must not raise your head slightly." ”

The man was lying straight at the bottom of the boat, and the boat was led in through the water at the bottom of the rock, and when it reached the middle of the rock, it was pitch black in front of him, as if the surrounding rocks were squeezing towards him, and the rocks almost grazed his nose. "Thousand-foot beam pressure water is low, light boat lying on the back of the person back to the stream", there is frightening and no danger, interesting, into about two or three zhang, and suddenly open, can be praised as a spectacle, can be called a must.

The inner cave is very open, and the cave is deep. At the shore of the boat, looking up, there is a cyan stalactite pattern winding from the top of the northeast cave, and another yellow stalactite swoops from the northwest, called "Double Dragon", the dragon shape is clear and recognizable, and the image is realistic. The stalactites and stalagmites in the cave are strangely shaped and criss-crossed. There are many stalactites and stalagmites in the cave, there are dragon claws, dragon tails and the dragon head outside the cave echo each other, the shape is peculiar, the layout is ingenious, there are "the yellow dragon spits water", "the upside-down bat", "the colorful clouds cover the moon", "the sky is in the sky", "the turtle explores the sea", "the turtle and the snake symbiosis", "the frog thief fairy grass", "the birthday star fairy peach" and other landscapes, the illusion is changeable, make people dizzy, just like being in the crystal dragon palace.

Dugu Hong took Yu Shao to visit every corner, telling the various humanistic legends of the Wonder Cave, Yu Shao watched and listened with great interest. has a warm leather coat, Shen Bing is also lively and active, and follows Yu Shao to 'watch the flowers'. In addition to the Ssangyong Cave on the ground floor, there is also a curling cave on the middle floor and Chaojin Cave on the highest level.

The entrance of the curling cave is facing the sky and is more than ten feet deep. Looking down, the cold air hits, and the hole is bottomless, so it is called "curling". Everyone stepped on the stone steps and winded to the bottom of the cave. The waterfall in the curling cave pours out from the top of the cave of the five-zhang high cliff, the sound of the waterfall is roaring, deafening, the silver waterfall is falling, and the deep dome is wonderful. Climb the stairs and go up is towards the real hole, the entrance of the cave to the west, the front is facing the deep ravine, and the back is against the green peak. Looking in front of the cave, the surrounding peaks stand upright, just like a hundred monks pilgrimage to seek the truth, the name of the cave comes from this. The stalactites in the cave are hanging high, stalagmites are everywhere, one of the big stalagmites resembles "Guanyin", called "Guanyin Dashi statue". There is a "skylight" above the hole, which penetrates a beam of sunlight, like a half moon, also known as "a line of sky".

Out of the other hole, the earth was already covered with sunlight. Yu Shao is in the fairy cave Futian, amazed by the magic of heaven, karst landscape, dazzling, vivid, visitors here, will forget the hustle and bustle of the world. Yu Shao savored the aftertaste and experienced the magic of "one day in the cave, three years in the world".

That night, Dugu Hong set up nearly a hundred tables of banquets in the Shuanglong Cave Cave Mansion, of course, not only for Yu Shao, but more importantly, the divine sword 'ghost' was lost and recovered, and he was happy and did not blame one of his brothers, who lost the divine sword in his hand. And Dugu Hong took this opportunity to gather the important leaders of the thirty-six caves and seventy-two peaks, so that they could understand that with me Dugu Hong, even if she was such an evil woman, the first-class martial arts masters would fold it in their hands, and easily retrieve the divine sword, and also let the important leaders of the thirty-six caves and seventy-two peaks who respected him as the leader a warning, don't make trouble with me, let alone think about anything wrong. Most of the thirty-six caves and seventy-two peaks of the rabble that he took to hunt down the daughter of the 'ghost shadow' had already been hit by the 'Feng Xue Ling' and died. Even if the disciples act as cannon fodder, the leaders of the thirty-six holes and the seventy-two peaks dare not speak out, and they also have a flattering look on their hippie smiling faces, only a few leaders are expressionless and angry, but their own martial arts are compared to Dugu Hong, which is a firefly competing with the sun and the moon, so it is a fake congratulations.

Yu Shao and Shen Bing, as distinguished guests, were arranged by Li Hai's side, and Dugu Hong was afraid that he would be busy with entertainment and couldn't take care of them, so he arranged his deputy to accompany him. Yu Shao was a little flustered when he saw such a big scene for the first time. With so many martial arts people gathered together, it was not very lively, and the voices were full of people. And the fish and dragons are mixed, maybe there are court killers mixed in, and Dugu Hong may not know all the people in this thousand-person conference, so Yu Shao has been observing all kinds of 'heroes'.

Dugu Hong was already a little drunk in the thirty-six holes, under the toasts of the leaders of the seventy-two peaks in turn, and it was obvious that Dugu Hong drank an amazing amount of wine, under the toasts and tributes of so many people, he was only a little fluttering, and his mind was full of the appearance of the leader of the martial arts alliance. He walked quickly to Yu Shao's side, still holding a big bowl in his hand, the full wine did not spill a drop in the brisk walk, everyone looked at it with admiration, martial arts and alcohol are indeed first-class masters in the rivers and lakes.

Dugu Hong looked around at the guests with bloodshot eyes, pulled up Yu Shao, and said in an unusually thick voice: "Everyone, I would like to introduce to you a friend I just met, Wang Ziyu, Yu Shao, a young hero, chivalrous and courageous, I hope you will not embarrass my brother when walking the rivers and lakes." ”

Thousands of people stood up together and raised the wine bowl in the direction of Yu Shao, of course Yu Shao couldn't disobey Duguhong's kindness, so he immediately raised the wine bowl, drank it in one gulp, and hugged his fists to salute everyone. Everyone praised it, and immediately drank the wine and showed the bottom of the bowl to show their sincerity. Although Yu Shao doesn't look down on their flattery, he doesn't hate it so much, after all, everyone lives under Dugu Hong's obscenity, and his nature may not be good, Yu Shao feels that they are not friends, but there is no need to offend them.

Duguhong is bold and atmospheric, and he will never be reluctant to wine, and the good wine in that jar is constantly moving out of the cellar. Shuanglong Cave is warm in winter and cool in summer, it is a natural wine cellar, Dugu Hong is addicted to alcohol in addition to martial arts. When he came here alone from the Central Plains, he shot with a sword, drove away the original earth tyrant cave master, and took the magpie's nest to a treasure land. And recruited the seven sworn brothers when they were young together, forming the 'Eight Wu and Eight Swords', among the eight people, Dugu Hong's martial arts are the strongest, the oldest, naturally the eldest brother, Li Hai, who is sitting on the side of Yu Shao, is one of them, slightly older, ranked second. With their ruthlessness and martial arts, they fought a piece of the country in the land of Nanban, and Duguhong gradually became famous in the rivers and lakes, and so on to subdue the thirty-six holes, seventy-two peaks, and founded the 'Double Dragon Gang' after becoming more famous in the martial arts, and finally became a hegemon. Even the Xuanzhen Daoist of the ancestral palace of 'Huang Tai Sin' next door to Shuanglong Cave respected him as the leader of one party, called him a brother and brother, and gave him the treasure of the town palace, the divine sword 'Ghost Shadow', so that he could ensure the safety of the party at the foot of Jinhua Mountain.

At this banquet, of course, Xuanzhen Daoist was present, and he sat next to Dugu Hong. Dugu Hong took out the 'ghost' sword and wanted to return it to its original owner. Xuanzhen Taoist silently looked at the scabbard, Yu Shao saw that there was nothing special, the scabbard used was made of sandalwood, wrapped in seven-step snake skin, the sword handle was made of horns, inlaid with black metal, it looked a little clumsy, and the snake skin horns also had some meaning of cow ghosts and snake gods.

The Xuanzhen Daoist wanted everyone to see the ancient artifact, so he drew out the sword.
