Chapter 287: The End of the Year
Under the stars, the night is cool.
Before the small courtyard.
Wang Yue was alone, holding the hilt of the sword, from the eaves down, fluttering like a fairy, appearing in front of everyone, in the overlapping encirclement, without the slightest fear, indifferent as water, that touch of style lived up to the name of Yanshan Sword Saint.
"The old man is here!" Wang Yue's gaze, penetrating the figure, fell on Mu Jing's body: "You are just looking for an old man, why implicate the innocent!" ”
"Wang Yue?"
Mu Jing stretched out his hand, picked up Huo Shao and Lei Hu who were blocking in front of him, and glanced at Wang Yue with an interesting look, last time he didn't see it clearly, this time he looked at it very clearly, wearing an ordinary cloth clothes, thin, thin, silver hair like silk, if you don't say it, you really don't feel that he is actually the king of rangers, a generation of sword saints.
"It's not easy for a certain family to find you!" Mu Jing squinted his eyes and said coldly.
"Didn't you find it now?"
Wang Yue's expression was very calm.
"Actually, you shouldn't take in apprentices!" Mu Jing looked at Wang Yue, glanced at Shi A again, and said faintly: "You are a peerless swordsman, but also an elusive assassin, you shouldn't have a weakness!" ”
He can find Wang Yue, because Wang Yue still has a weakness, if Wang Yue is a lone traveler, his hatred may be hopeless for the rest of his life, with Wang Yue's martial arts, with Wang Yue's swordsmanship, he can't catch it.
"There is such a vain, the old man has never regretted it!"
Wang Yue glanced at his beloved apprentice with an expression and said calmly.
After half a ring, Mu Jing opened his mouth and asked: "Sword Saint Wang Yue, crisscrossing the northern border, can be killed from the Mobei grassland, can easily enter the princely prime minister's mansion, a strong man admired by countless rangers, but why did you come to provoke me, I Mu Jing asked himself if I have no grievances with you?" ”
Wang Yue's expression was silent, he didn't answer Mu Jing's words, he didn't want to answer, and he didn't want to answer, because the answer would plunge the whole world into turmoil, he couldn't bear this crime, and he couldn't be sorry for some dead people.
"It doesn't matter!"
Mu Jing shook his head, he had some answers in his heart, it was not difficult to ask for proof, and he knew that if a person like Wang Yue could cultivate martial arts to such a realm, he would have to go through countless hardships, and his determination was already very unimaginable, and what he didn't want to say was in vain if he asked.
So he didn't ask the topic again.
He just smiled and said, "Then guess you, can you still escape from my presence today?" ”
Even if you don't count Huang Zhong, a peerless general.
In the encirclement of less than 30 meters now, three hundred soldiers with longbows and short crossbows have sealed the narrow terrain of the square circle, and Wang Yue took the initiative to fall in this encirclement, which doomed his fate.
"One person does things and one person is responsible, let them go, the old man will be captured, and he will be slaughtered!" Wang Yue glanced at Shi A and Shi Shi's husband and wife, and his voice became resolute and cold: "Otherwise, ......"
"How else?"
Mu Jing took a step forward, looked at Wang Yue, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and asked, "You are now a fish on the chopping board, can you still kill me?" ”
"If you have a defense, the old man will naturally not be able to kill you, but there will be a few people to bury us tonight, do you want to try it?" Wang Yue held the hilt of the sword in his hand, prepared for it, and said confidently.
"What a sword master, so confident when he dies!"
Mu Jing squinted, he couldn't deny Wang Yue's self-confidence.
With Wang Yue's skills, body and swordsmanship, and ability, if he insists on resisting, even if he can be surrounded and killed today, I am afraid that he will have to pay a lot of price, and his skill has reached his realm, in today's era, even if it is not an atomic bomb, it is also the deterrent power of a missile.
"Wang Yue, you are too conceited, you let you escape last time, this time, my knife will not let you escape again!" Huang Zhong held the knife and strode out, his eyes were like a tiger and wolf, his body was full of evil energy, and the momentum of his body condensed into a little, approaching Wang Yue's place.
Wang Yue's pupils were slightly packed, if it was a weekday, he was not afraid of Huang Zhong, but if he was limited to the battle in the encirclement, he was not as good as Huang Zhong, they had a fight, and they had some temptations for each other, he knew that Huang Zhong was a general, indomitable, and he himself was a ranger, and he could fight, and he would be inferior to Huang Zhong if he faced it head-on.
"My sword can kill you!"
Even though Wang Yue knew that the environment was not favorable to him, he was not afraid, his sword was also an indomitable sword, and his aura condensed into a long sword, breaking through Huang Zhong's momentum oppression.
"Then give it a try!"
Huang Zhong shouted angrily, raising his long knife and bursting with momentum.
The two martial arts powerhouses, the momentum on their bodies is ready to go, and wisps of sword intent and sword qi have collided.
The arrogance of the two was too strong, and the battle of momentum alone had already formed a battle field, and the surrounding soldiers couldn't help but take half a step back.
Mu Jing's eyes swept over, he was silent for a moment, and said, "Uncle Zhong, you don't have to fight with him!" ”
When Huang Zhong heard this, he snorted coldly, reined in his momentum, and took half a step back.
"Wang Yue, I can let them go, but you have to be arrested!" Mu Jing said coldly.
"How can the old man believe you!"
"You can also choose not to believe it!" Mu Jing said with a smile: "I, Mu Jing, are true to my word, based on the world with faith, and break the principle for you as a little ranger, you are not worthy!" ”
Wang Yue looked at his beloved disciple, and the hand holding the hilt of the sword loosened.
"Teacher, don't!" Although Shi A was restrained, a pair of eyes burst into flames, and he shouted angrily: "You leave us alone, kill yourself, and avenge the disciples in the future!" ”
Wang Yue turned a deaf ear, he looked at Mu Jing lightly: "I lost, I want to kill or chop, listen to it!" ”
"How can you balance a master!" Mu Jing squinted and asked.
"I will!"
Zhang Ning was wearing a men's robe, even under the night sky, she couldn't hide her outstanding demeanor, she stood in Mujing safely, her eyes were dashing, she glanced at Wang Yue, and said coldly: "Lock the pipa bone, nail the second pulse of Ren Du on his body, he is just an ordinary person!" ”
"Uncle Zhong!" Mu Jing didn't dare to step forward in person, he didn't completely judge that Wang Yue had lost the ability to resist, if he dared to walk within five steps of Wang Yue, Huang Zhong would not be able to save him.
"Hey!"
Although Huang Zhong's fighting spirit is rising, but seeing the situation of a generation of sword saints falling, he feels a little sad that the rabbit is dead and the fox is sad, and the ranger can't hurt the table after all.
He personally locked Wang Yue's pipa bone with an iron hook, and then sealed Wang Yue's second vein of Rendu with a silver needle, and Wang Yue suddenly lost his combat effectiveness.
At this time, Mu Jing dared to step forward, pulled out a long sword from Wang Yue's waist: "You owe me a sword!" ”
His sword pierced out and pierced through Wang Yue's lower abdomen.
Blood flows down the lower abdomen.
Wang Yue was stiff, just frowned, and didn't say a word.
"Don't!"
Shi Ah looked at the blood flow, and suddenly cried out desolately.
"Take it away!"
Mu Jing waved his hand and said in a deep voice.
This sword is not a vital point, it will not kill Wang Yue, it is just a piece that Mu Jing stabbed out in order to vent his anger, there is no point in killing Wang Yue at this time, he needs to know something from Wang Yue's mouth to confirm his conjecture.
"Teacher!" Shi A was sad and angry, he knew that if it weren't for himself, not because of his own family, Wang Yue would not be so restrained.
"I keep my word!"
Mu Jing walked up and patted him on the shoulder, a smile rose on the corner of his mouth, and the smile looked like a demon: "You are free!" ”
Shi Ah raised his head, his eyes were resentful, and he looked at Mu Jing deadly.
"I admire your eyes, but it's better not to look at me like that until I don't have the ability, because I can't help but kill you!" Mu Jing said indifferently.
"You'd better kill me!"
Shi Ah stubbornly raised his head and gritted his teeth: "Otherwise, I will make you regret it in the future!" ”
"I'll give you a chance!"
Mu Jing said pointedly: "I won't kill your teacher easily, he still has use value, but I will torture him slowly, if you want to do something for your teacher, you can come to me!" ”
After speaking, Mu Jing walked away.
The surrounding soldiers also collected their troops and returned, and in the courtyard, only a few drops of blood remained quietly, as if nothing had happened.
……
……
The end of the first year of Guangxi has finally arrived.
The Son of Heaven issued an edict to suspend the dynasty for ten days.
After a busy year, I can finally have a leisure day.
In Luoyang City, every household is buying new clothes and robes, and when the winter grain is tuned, the Taifu Mansion is also in full swing to prepare for the year-end festival.
On the night of the end of the year, the banquet held in the palace, the Son of Heaven personally set up a banquet to invite civil and military officials, which has always been a habit to ease the relationship between monarchs and ministers.
The banquet attended by Mujing's father and son, and the ministers toasted and talked at the banquet, as if the contradictions above the court had disappeared in these few drinks.
After the banquet, the Mu father and son returned to the Taifu Mansion.
According to the rite at the end of the year, it is to pay tribute to the ancestors.
The spiritual seat of the ancestors of the Mu family is placed on the ancestral hall in the backyard of the Taifu Mansion, which is not as good as a big family, but there are several, which can be traced back to the generation of Mrs. Mu Jing's grandfather.
"Jing'er, now that our Mu clan is based in the capital, there are some things that my father wants to talk to you about!"
The ancestral hall is heavy, outsiders are not allowed to enter, only the father and son of the Mu family, Mu Shan said with some sighs in front of the spiritual position: "My Mu clan has a genealogy, but it was lost when the village was burned, and I have been looking for my father for many years, although I did not find the genealogy, but the clansmen have found a lot, for my father when King Qin went north, life and death are uncertain, so they were placed in Nanyang Xi'e, Xi'e is the ancestral land, can be established, but for the father is now considered a success, can not be disadvantaged to the clansmen, after the year for the father wants to let them come to the capital, we Mu, After all, there are too few people! ”
"Clansmen?"
Mu Jing squinted, he didn't expect Mu Shan to find the owner of the Mu family, the history of China for thousands of years, is the family and the country, the family is in the front, and the country is in the back, so there is nothing wrong with Mu Shan doing this.
"Everything is up to my father!"
Mu Jing bowed down and said.
"After this year, you will be fifteen!" The ancestors of the two kneeling here, after lighting the everlasting lamp representing the prosperity of the year, walked out of the ancestral hall side by side, and suddenly Mu Shan stopped, as if he wanted to leave something, looked at Mu Jing, and said: "For the father, you want to marry, what do you think!" ”
"Marry?"
When Mu Jing heard this, he smiled slightly bitterly, he really hadn't thought about this problem, after all, fifteen years old, in modern times, a junior high school student, this is marrying his own son, his thinking is a little difficult.
"Dad, it's too early!"
"Start a family!"
Mu Shan said solemnly: "If you don't have a family, how to start a business!" ”
