Section 1 Wind and Moon (Wedge)
'The dangerous building is a hundred feet high, and you can pick the stars with your hands. I dare not raise my voice, for fear of frightening the people in heaven. This poem was improvised by Li Taiyun, a poet of the Tang Dynasty and also known as the sword immortal of the world, when he stayed in an ancient temple in all directions.
Mochizuki Pavilion stands proudly on the top of Huashan Mountain, and its momentum soars into the sky.
If it hadn't been built a hundred years later because it really had nothing to do with that poet, then this poem would have been left for it.
The old man Ziji has been in charge of the Huashan faction for more than 30 years, because he has cultivated to the sky, and is highly respected in the rivers and lakes, although there is no martial arts alliance leader in the martial arts, but with the prestige he has accumulated over the years and the many righteous things he has done for the martial arts, he has already become a recognized martial arts master in the rivers and lakes.
In the past, the Heavenly Demon Sect was arrogant and killed the righteous people of the martial arts, and some small sects were wiped out because of this.
At that time, the leader of the Ying Heavenly Demon Sect was a generation of Tianjiao, not only scheming and cunning, but also cultivated to a higher level than the previous masters of the Demon Sect, so his ambition endangered the entire martial arts.
He single-handedly reached the pinnacle of the 'Nine Turns of the Qiankun Demon Skill' to defeat the people of all factions in the martial arts, and the five major sects were powerless.
At the moment when the righteous path of martial arts was dying, the old man Ziji resolutely stood up and united the five major factions that were crushed by the Demon Sect and some of the remaining small sects to start a counterattack against the Demon Sect.
But at that time, basically all the people in the martial arts were scared by the Demon Sect, and they really didn't dare to compete with it anymore, and they all relied on prevarication.
The old man Ziji understood that if there was no victory that could give hope to the righteous people of the martial arts, no one would dare to fight the Demon Sect openly.
However, it is not easy to win a battle, but how can there be a way out now.
On the third day, no one expected that the old man Ziji would use the power of three days to make his eldest disciple Yue Manlou and his second disciple blame for the surprise attack on the Demon Sect rudder located in the Central Plains, and beheaded the 'Fire God' Burning City, one of the four heavenly kings of the Demon Sect who was splitting the rudder at that time.
This battle immediately rekindled the morale of the martial arts righteous people, and then all the sects responded, and officially counterattacked the Demon Sect led by the old man Ziji.
Since the battle of the Broken Sky Cliff, the old man Ziji has fought the Demon Sect Leader with one manpower, seriously injured him, and killed the Demon Sect's left protector Lei Jie, and finally made the Demon Sect retreat.
It's been five years now, and the Demon Sect has never violated the Central Plains again, but who can forget the contribution made by the old man Ziji to the martial arts?
Today, the quiet place of Mochizuki Pavilion is very lively, no, it is really on the top of Huashan.
Because this is the 60th birthday of the old man Ziji, how can people from all factions in the martial arts not have a gift.
Originally, it would be more appropriate for the old man Ziji to hold his birthday in the main hall of the Huashan faction, but his seventh disciple, who was also his close disciple, You Wuji, said that the Moon Moon Tower was the quiet and elegant place of Huashan, and it would be better if a birthday banquet was held there.
The old man Ziji didn't care about this either, but since the disciple said it, then follow the disciple's words, after all, the disciple also wants to do his best!
The high-rise building is drunk and the moonlight is intoxicating.
The five major sects of martial arts either came to congratulate the old man Ziji on his birthday, or sent his cronies with big gifts, not to mention other sects.
The old man Ziji also thanked him unanimously, and asked the third disciple Yan Shu to accept the congratulatory gift and invite people from all walks of life to sit down, which was very lively for a while.
The disciples of the old man Ziji had already been arranged, so there was no chaos.
In the middle of the banquet, the seven disciples of the old man Ziji, who are also the seven young talents who are now very famous in the rivers and lakes, began to toast the old man Ziji in turn, saying that they would congratulate him on his birthday and offer the birthday gifts they had prepared for the master.
The eldest disciple Yue Manlou is worthy of being known as the most versatile talent in the rivers and lakes who is known as 'the best in Kyushu and the four seas', and he actually grinded the pen on the spot, and wrote the book with the 'Eight Desolations and Freedom Gong' taught him by the old man of Ziji, and drew a picture of 'eagle spreading its wings and spitting mountains and rivers' with such a jaw-dropping momentum to dedicate to the old man of Ziji.
This immediately shocked the audience, won a burst of applause, and the old man Ziji himself was greatly pleased.
Because from this painting, the old man Ziji can see that his apprentice's cultivation has now reached a higher level, and the 'Eight Desolations and Freedom Gong' has been made perfect and easy by him, even if it is himself.
As for whether the second apprentice is to blame or not, the old man Ziji didn't have any expectations for him, he just hoped that he could say a word of congratulations to himself.
This is only because this person has always been very arrogant and loves to act.
If a man gets married, he can weep, and if someone dies, he can sing.
And in the face of the teachings of the old man Ziji, he repeatedly did not change, which made the old man Ziji secretly sigh that he was really tolerant!
Sure enough, he had already taken out the gift he had prepared for a long time, a rusty iron box.
Of course, before that, the brothers and sisters had asked him what the gift was (which was worried that the probability of him making jokes was still very high).
only listened to Gui and said: "Master, I am incompetent as an apprentice, you didn't teach me any work to support my family back then, and the only set of swordsmanship can only fight and fight." But today's birthday, I can't help it, so I'll give you all the savings I have left over the years! ”
As he spoke, he handed the broken iron box to the old man Ziji.
At that time, everyone was stunned, this is not to blame, it is called 'Wine Sword Fairy' by the people in the rivers and lakes, and it is also very famous in the rivers and lakes.
Of course, those who are familiar with the blame will never blame him for this, he has always regarded money as dung, and when he has money, he will either buy alcohol or meet a poor egg, and then he will be cheated out.
The old man shook his head, but still took the iron box.
He knew that this was not to blame for saving money when he was a child, and now it was self-evident that there was only an iron box left, so he didn't say anything, and his apprentice didn't know about it himself?
"Hmph, if the old man Ziji received gifts like this, wouldn't it be a loss of his identity......"
This was originally the highest floor of Mochizuki Pavilion, but all the martial arts people suddenly heard a sneer from someone outside the building.
"Who is the master, please show up!"
Yan Shu and the fourth junior brother Li Yu immediately held their swords in their hands and said vigilantly to Lou Yu, being able to transmit sound outside this hundred-foot building not only shows that the other party is extremely light, but also has extremely deep internal strength.
And the rest of the people were also alert, and the one who came was not a good kind.
But the voice didn't sound again, and at this moment, someone suddenly exclaimed, "Old man Ziji, he, he ......"
The old man's mouth was open, but he couldn't say a word anymore, because he was already dead.
His fingers reached forward, as if trying to catch the killer, and his eyes were full of disbelief......
