Chapter 3 The Master of the Hidden Sword
In the dense forest dozens of miles away, Wei Chong and his soldiers hid in a mountain recess and waited anxiously. Not long after the explosion disappeared, Wei Chong found that there were two black dots moving slowly not far away, and Wei Chong called people to be on guard. When the two black dots walked in, it was the man in black who supported the old man, and the clothes and utensils on the two were burned to charcoal black.
Seeing this, Wei Chong rushed over and asked eagerly, "Is Mr. good, is Mr. injured?" ”
The old man sat on the ground and said slowly, "It's fine. Fortunately, this strong man rescued me in time, and I was out of danger. Then he turned to the man in black: "Is the strong man injured?" ”
The man in black said: "It's not in the way, it's just some skin trauma." ”
Wei Zheng suddenly knelt down: "Thank you for sacrificing your life to save my husband, please accept Wei Chong's worship." As he spoke, he kowtowed.
The man in black hurriedly hugged Wei Chong and said, "They are also people from the rivers and lakes, why worry about these trivial things, Brother Wei Chong please hurry up." Wei Chong saw that the man in black called himself a brother, and a sense of pride suddenly swelled in his chest. Since he was a child, he wanted to be a heroic man with a thin sky.
The old man asked, "The strong man still withdrew from Chiyan Mountain, why did he go and return?" ”
The man in black was about to answer, but Wei Chong rushed and said, "Sir, I know." When we walked here, we saw a thick smoke and fire in the direction of Chiyan Mountain, followed by a violent roar. We know that the gentleman is wrestling with the firebird. Suddenly, the strong man shouted 'not good', and then ran towards Chiyan Mountain. We also wanted to go along, but I remembered that you said that we should keep going and not go back, and I was afraid that if we went back, we would not only not be able to help you, but also be scolded by you, so we didn't go forward or backward, just waiting for you here, so you can't blame us for coming. ”
The old man Yao'er smiled: "Wei Chong is really straightforward. He waved his hand to the man in black and said, "Thank you to the strong man for saving us from danger." Wei Guo Kong Xuan thanked him here. Dare to ask if your majesty can tell me? ”
"Yes, yes, yes! After talking for a long time, you still don't know the hero's name? Wei Chong interjected.
The man in black returned the salute and said, "It turns out that Mr. is Mr. Kong, a famous sword master, disrespectful!" In the next Fei Wuji, he is a junior, and he studied under the Sword Lake Pond Wanjian Peak, under the Sword Saint Sect. ”
When Kong Xuan heard this, he was very surprised: "It turned out to be a high-ranking disciple of the Sword Saint among the five hidden saints who are famous in the rivers and lakes, and he is really fortunate in three lives." Just now, Lao Su was still thinking, who of today's young heroes is so extraordinary that he can retreat in front of the three-legged black phoenix? It turned out to be a disciple of the Sword Saint, and sure enough, hahaha! ”
Fei Wuji said: "Mr. has won the award, the famous Tibetan sword master Weiguo Kong, no one knows." Just now, Mr. made the blood rune ice curtain able to resist the three-legged black phoenix, which is worthy of the world-famous Kong Clan's mastery. When I was studying art in Jianhu Pond, I often heard the master and his old man say that Kong Zhou, a famous Tibetan sword master, has countless hidden swords, especially the Chengying Sword, and the family teacher respects it very much. ”
Kong Xuan said: "It is the honor of my Kong family to wait for the praise of the Sword Saint!" The Sword Saint mentioned that Kong Zhou is the ancestor of my Kong clan, and it is the Chengying Sword that the ancestor obtained. Fei Wuji responded. Kong Xuan continued: "Later, a man called Laidan wanted to avenge his father and borrowed the Chengying Sword from my ancestors, and my ancestors saw that Laidan had filial piety, so he lent him the Chengying Sword, and repeatedly asked that the Chengying Sword is a sword that is both good and evil, extremely powerful, and can recognize people, and will see blood when it comes out of the sheath, otherwise it will bring disaster. Later, when he came to Dan, he went to the enemy's house, waved several swords in a row, and saw that the enemy was not dead. Lai Dan fled, and when he returned home, he remembered that the Chengying Sword had been unsheathed and had also slashed over the enemy's body, but there was no blood, and the enemy was still alive. Laidan was scared and thought to himself: I didn't take revenge, and I wanted to bring trouble to my family. So he drew his sword and killed himself, and the Chengying sword was nowhere to be found. Until half a year ago, the royal family sent someone to call me to Xiangjian, and I recognized it at a glance as the Chengying Sword, so I informed the Son of Heaven about it, and the Son of Heaven gave me the Chengying Sword to the Confucian family collection. ”
Fei Wuji said: "Congratulations to Mr. Chengying, it's really gratifying!" I've heard Master say that there is a secret in the Chengying Sword, I don't know if Mr. knows? ”
"I have heard my father say that my ancestors once spied on this secret. Ever since Laidan borrowed the Chengying Sword and disappeared, this secret has also been lost. I have to study from scratch and hope that the young man will help me! ”
"It is a great blessing to be able to do my little bit for my husband."
"With the help of the Sword Saint master, the secret of the Shadow Sword will definitely be solved."
"Haha," the two looked at each other and smiled.
At this time, Kong and Fei were both injured, and this place was very close to Chiyan Mountain, although it was temporarily out of danger, but the three-legged black phoenix was likely to chase after it again. So Kong Xuan said: "You and I are both injured. It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, the young man will go back to my house to defend the country with the old man first, and also help the old man understand the secret of the Chengying Sword, how about it? ”
Fei Wuji said: "It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, then there is Mr. Lao." ”
"Young man is polite!" Kong Xuan said that Wei Chong set up the carriage, and the group rushed to Wei Guo.
Nothing on the road. On this day, when he came to the territory of Weiguo, Kong Xuan asked Wei Chong to go back to the house first to inform his family, and he would arrive home in a few days, prepare the things to be used in advance, and there were distinguished guests to arrive. Wei Chong answered and rode away first.
Two days later, at the beginning of the morning, the group arrived at the patriotic court.
Chaoge City was the old capital of the Shang Dynasty, and it was the largest capital city in China at that time. Later, the Zhou tribe arose in Qishan, made great efforts, and after King Wu of Zhou destroyed Shang, he sealed his younger uncle Kang in the court, which was to defend the country. In the Spring and Autumn Period of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the Beidi tribe invaded the Central Plains, captured Chaoge, and was defeated in defending the country, and asked for help from the Qi State. Duke Qi Huan and Guan Zhong led troops to rescue the guards and defeated Beidi. After this change, Chaoge City was dilapidated, so Duke Qi Huan helped Weiguo rebuild the capital in Chuqiu, and Chaoge slowly fell.
After the relocation of the capital, the song was the most dilapidated, but there were still some old ministers who were nostalgic for the old capital and refused to move away, including the Confucian family of the country. They rebuilt the new city in a corner of a ruined area, and since then, although the Chaoge City has lost the hustle and bustle of the past, it has also left the charm of the ancient capital.
Fei Wuji looked at the ruined Chaoge City from the carriage, and couldn't help but feel surging and full of thoughts. remembered that he studied art with his master in Jianhu Pond, and he was a childhood sweetheart with his little sister Mo Wuya, and he fell in love. After ten years of study, he obeyed the master and did not dare to disrespect; has a deep affection for the little sister and is obedient. Unexpectedly, the master did not agree to his association with the little junior sister, and insisted on asking the junior brother to marry the little junior sister without mercy.
On the night of the marriage of the younger brother and sister, Fei Wuji was very drunk and greeted the guests. He forced a smile and ushered in the send-off, but who among the many people knew the sourness in his heart.
At the end of the night, Fei Wuji personally saw his younger brother and sister enter the cave room, and he was filled with grief and hatred, so he said goodbye without saying goodbye and fled from the Sword Lake Pool in anger. After the master learned that Fei Wuji had left, he knew that he had broken off with him, and he was very miserable, so he never accepted disciples again, and only comprehended the mysteries of heaven and earth in the mountains.
"Sir—Mr. Fei? Arrived, get off. Wei Chong shouted, pulling Fei Wuji back from his thoughts.
Fei Wuji answered, got up and got out of the car. I saw the high wall and green tiles in front of me, through the gate, the pavilions inside were connected, it was actually a big manor, and there was a fresh scene in the old city of Chaoge.
At this time, a young girl ran out of the courtyard, and she shouted as she ran: "Daddy, Daddy! How's my daddy? The girl ran to Kong Xuan, hugged her and said, "My daughter heard Wei Chong say that Daddy's encounter with demon beasts on the road is very dangerous, and my daughter has been worried and hopes that Daddy is safe." Daddy won't come back, and the daughter is going to save Daddy. ”
Kong Xuan smiled: "Wan'er has such filial piety, Daddy is happy even if he is eaten by a demon beast." Haha"
"Daddy is scaring his daughter again, if Daddy is eaten by a monster, who will take care of his daughter? My daughter is not alone and being bullied! The girl sneered.
This girl is Kong Xuan's only daughter, named Kong Wan'er, seventeen years old, born beautiful and soft, with a delicate appearance. Because Kong Xuan buried his wife in his early years, leaving only this only daughter, Kong Xuan is very favored, like a pearl in the palm of his hand, usually not only taught her to read and write, piano and chess, Zhou etiquette, but also passed on some family swordsmanship, so unlike the daughter of an ordinary rich family, there is a natural admiration for heroes like her father.
Kong Xuan pulled Fei Wuji and said: "This time, my father can go home alive, thank you to this Fei Shaoxia for sacrificing his life to save him, come, hurry up and see Fei Gongzi." ”
Kong Wan'er turned around slightly, bowed to Fei Wuji gently, and with a pair of big watery eyes, she glanced at Fei Wuji, shyly, just smiled slightly, and thanked her.
Fei Wuji hurriedly returned the salute: "Childe doesn't have to be polite. I saw that Kong Wan'er had fair and ruddy skin, waist-length hair, and a pair of bright eyes as if she could speak, very beautiful.
At this time, the housekeeper Kong Xiang also brought a group of family members out to greet him, and instructed everyone to arrange a room for Fei Wuji, and hurriedly asked the doctor to see a doctor for Kong Xuan and Fei Wuji.
After Kong Xuan entered the house, he ordered: "Mr. Fei and I are only skin injuries, and there is no major problem, as long as we are healthy and recuperate." You tell me to go down, I haven't seen any guests recently, and no outsiders are allowed to disturb me. Kong Xiang answered and went down to order.
After a while, Kong Wan'er came into the house with a bowl of soup and medicine: "Daddy, I will make the medicine for you with my own hands, drink it quickly." ”
Kong Xuan took the medicine and took a sip, and said with a smile: "My good daughter has grown up and can take care of her father." ”
"As long as you can make your father well, my daughter will give you medicine every day."
"Drink medicine every day? Wouldn't that daddy become a medicine jar, haha! ”
"Daddy, you're making fun of your daughter again"
The father and daughter talked and laughed, enjoying the joy of family. Kong Wan'er has been dependent on her father since she was a child, and she often spoils herself in front of her father, and Kong Xuan also dotes on her daughter very much, often laughing with her daughter and pleasing her.
Suddenly, Kong Wan'er restrained her smile, took a step closer to the bed, and said to Kong Xuan mysteriously: "Daddy went to the royal city this time, what are the interesting and strange things along the way, tell me." Did you meet a robber? Which country is fighting again? I heard Wei Chong say that he met a demon beast, what does a demon beast look like? Does it eat people? How did you meet that Fei Gongzi, and how did you get hurt? How is Fei Gongzi's martial arts, is it particularly strong? ”
Kong Xuan laughed and said, "Good daughter, you ask so many questions in one breath, which one do you want to answer for your father?" ”
"Just tell me everything, my daughter wants to hear it." Kong Wan'er said: "No, my father is injured, it is important to recuperate, you can rest first, and then listen to you when your injured daughter is healed." After speaking, the disappointment jumped on his face.
Kong Xuan couldn't see that his daughter had such filial piety, and he was already pleased. So he said, "Daddy's injury is fine, tell you about it for my father." When Kong Wan'er heard this, she immediately cheered: "It's still my father's daughter who loves her the most." ”
