On the dock side of the county town, Ning Jiang, who had bought a small boat, stood on the bow of the boat, looking into the distance with his hands in his hands.

Behind him, Xiaomeng shook the oars, and Chun Jianli waved goodbye to Hu Man and Hu Shuang on the dock.

Watching the boat gradually sail away from the dock and down the tired water, Hu Shuang said: "Sister, who is this Ning Gongzi?" ”

Hu Man shook her head, at the beginning, she originally thought that this surnamed Ning was just a rich kid who couldn't learn literature and turned to Taoism, but even if it was for the sake of learning Taoism, it was too exaggerated to give away Wanguan's family wealth. And Xiaochun and Xiaomeng, who are so naturally beautiful and beautiful, even a woman like her looks at the two lovely people who are excited, and they accompany him all the way with the idea of promising each other, but they can't dispel his idea of dispersing his wealth and transferring to the Daomen?

will be liked by such an excellent family of two girls, I don't think it will be an ordinary person, right? She thought to herself.

After sending the three of them away, the two sisters and brothers turned around and walked back, crossing a street, and someone in a teahouse suddenly shouted: "Isn't this Miss Man and Brother Frost?" ”

Hu Man and Hu Shuang looked at it together, and saw that it was Xiao Zhang, a famous man in Chenzhou, who shouted to them. Hu Man took his younger brother into the teahouse and said with a smile: "How could Xiao Daxia be here?" ”

"Seven Fowl Knife" Xiao Zhang smiled: "Come to Jianzhou, there are some things to do. ”

Hu Man said: "Seeing that Xiao Daxia is so happy, isn't Sister Qing's illness already cured?" ”

She knows that Xiao Zhang has an only daughter, called Xiao Qing, has always been his pearl in the palm of his hand, smart and clever, erudite and talented, when he was old last year, Xiao Zhang had an enemy, in order to find Xiao Zhang to take revenge, he secretly applied poison needles, although Xiao Zhang avoided it, his daughter was hit by a needle, in the past few months, Xiao Zhang has continued to invite famous doctors for his daughter, but he has never cured his daughter, not only has he not been cured, but every famous doctor invited has asserted that Xiao Qing will not live for half a year.

Now seeing Xiao appear here, and his face is full of spring breeze, it is obvious that Xiao Qing's illness has been cured, otherwise how would Xiao Zhang be in the mood to run to such a place?

Xiao Zhang brushed his short beard and said, "Miss Duo Chengman cares, the little girl's poisonous disease has indeed been cured. ”

Hu Man was surprised: "I don't know if it was the famous doctor who cured Sister Qing?" She knew that in order to save her daughter, Xiao Zhang invited almost all the famous doctors south of the Changhe River, all of them were helpless, and at this moment she learned that Xiao Qing had recovered her health, and at the same time, she couldn't help but be curious.

Xiao Zhang thought for a while and said, "Do you know the sick man?" ”

Hu Man said suspiciously: "Sick man? I've never heard of him. ”

Xiao Zhang smiled: "It's normal that your sister and brother have never heard of it, this sick man used to be only unknown in the rivers and lakes, but this year, he has done a big thing." ”

Hu Man and Hu Shuang glanced at each other and asked together, "What's the big deal?" ”

Xiao Zhang said: "This incident happened in the capital, it can be said that it has spread all over the north and south of the river, but Yueling and the Central Plains are too far apart, and fewer people know about it." ”

He continued: "Have you ever heard of the Quanqing faction? This Quanqing faction is a newly created Taoist sect, and in recent years, it has been in the limelight in the capital, and on the north bank of the river, it has almost replaced it with a righteous religion. Wang Yiqing, the leader of the Quanqing faction, is also a master who has stepped into the grandmaster level, and the five sons of the Quanqing faction are all among the first-class. Fortunately, at this time, some people used extraordinary means to form a righteous alliance that was specifically against the Quanqing faction, and gradually exposed the various conspiracies of the Quanqing faction to collude with Zoroastrianism, communicate with foreign countries, and leak our Chinese military information to the barbarians and Miao people. and finally exterminated the Quanqing faction. ”

Slowly took a sip of tea and said leisurely: "Now everyone knows that it is the sick man who secretly formed the Righteous Qi Alliance. I heard that this sick man is seriously ill and does not know martial arts, but he is a chivalrous man who really rescues the rivers and lakes and does the way for the sky, he takes five subordinates to support and rescue those weak sects that are oppressed by the Quanqing faction, I don't know how many people have been gracious, after the collapse of the Quanqing faction, but he has hidden his merit and fame, dissolved the Zhengqi Alliance, and has no attachment to power. However, even so, everyone only knows that there is such a sick man who does not know martial arts but hoes the strong and helps the weak, and no one knows his true origin until now. ”

didn't expect that there would be such a number one person in the Central Plains, Hu Man and Hu Shuang were surprised.

A sick man of unknown origin and who does not know martial arts has set off a storm in the capital and overthrown the evil forces composed of scum in the rivers and lakes with a grandmaster in charge, which alone is enough to become a "legend of the rivers and lakes", not to mention that he is still so mysterious.

And "fighting righteousness and squandering wealth" and "doing the right thing for heaven" can be said to be the biggest praise of people in the rivers and lakes for a person, these people in the rivers and lakes do not respect the sky, do not worship the earth, and even the emperor may not take it to heart, but as soon as he hears that there are such good men who fight for righteousness and squander wealth and do the right thing for heaven, they can't wait to bow their heads and worship, this sick man is obviously such a good man.

Hu Man said: "Xiao Daxia suddenly mentioned this sick man, could it be ......"

Xiao Zhang said: "In the disbanded Righteous Qi Alliance, there are quite a few people who are good friends with Xiao, and every time they mention the sick man who sees the head and the end of the dragon, they don't praise him. Although Xiao smelled his reputation, but because he was in the capital, I was in Chenzhou, they had nothing to do with it, and I didn't take it to heart at first, but later I heard that this sick man was not only righteous and squandering money, anxious for people's difficulties, but also proficient in medical Taoism, escape and other unpredictable means, Xiao heard about this, so he invited him to invite him, and took a look at the little girl. ”

continued: "In fact, Xiao Mou has long been desperate, it is nothing more than a rush to the doctor, but he doesn't want to let go of any hope. Who knows, just a few days later, a person rushed to my house overnight, this person called himself Qin Er, saying that he was sent by the sick man. But it turned out that after the sick man learned that my daughter was injured by a poisonous needle and the toxin could not be removed, he hurriedly sent him and rushed over with a treasure, and along the way, there were as many as five tired horses alone, and said that his son-in-law was also on the way to come. ”

Whisker sighed: "Xiao Mou saw the treasures brought by Qin Er, and he already knew that my daughter was saved, thinking that the sick man, and I Xiao Zhang are not related to each other, one is in the south of the world, one is in the north of the earth, and there is no friendship at all, just because of a reluctant invitation to ask someone to pass it on, he will send those treasures thousands of miles away, and the rivers and lakes will save the emergency. ”

Hu Man smiled: "It seems that this sick man is really worthy of his reputation." ”

He said, "I don't know what a sick man looks like?" ”

Xiao Zhang said: "Xiao has never seen it either. ”

Hu Man was surprised: "Didn't Xiao Daxia say that the sick man was also rushing to the Ling Mansion?" ”

Xiao Zhang said with a smile: "Originally, this was true, but before he arrived, the little girl had been cured by the treasure he sent by Qin Er with the treasures he brought, and several famous doctors nearby re-examined the little girl, and they all said that the toxins in the little girl's anointing had disappeared, as if a miracle had happened, as long as she recuperated for a few more days, it would be fine." After Qin Erxia learned that the little girl was fine, he told Xiao that his son-in-law was seriously ill, and in such a hot season, he was also traveling south, and Yu was injured, hoping to let him rush back to inform. Although Xiao was very grateful to the sick man and hoped to thank him in person, he knew that he was weak and sick, and the little girl was fine, so he didn't want to bother him to go south, after all, a place like Chenzhou was a hot place. ”

Then he said: "That sick man, after receiving Qin Erxia's return, he didn't continue to come, and Xiao didn't have a chance to see him until now." ”

Hu Man said: "This sick man is really a person who is anxious for justice and righteousness, I really hope that one day, Brother Shuang and I can also get acquainted in person." He asked again: "Sister Qing has just recovered from a serious illness, why didn't Xiao Daxia accompany her more at home, and came to this Jianzhou again?" ”

Xiao Zhang said: "This, but it is also related to the sick man. After the little girl recovered from her illness, Xiao was grateful and thought about it, and asked people to tell the sick man many times, hoping to have the opportunity to repay him for saving the little girl. However, although he doesn't want to reciprocate, how can Xiao be a person who doesn't repay kindness? Later, it was the Qin Erxia who came and said that the sick man had something to trust, and he said, Recently, there may be an injustice in the south, and I hope I can come over to take a look. ”

Hu Man asked, "I don't know what kind of injustice it is?" ”

Xiao Zhang said: "This, in fact, I don't know, I asked that Qin Erxia, what does the sick man want me to do, but the Qin Erxia said that the sick man did not explain, just asked me to go south to take a look, if there is any injustice, but with the word chivalry." You also know that I, Xiao, would have had to do things peacefully, if it weren't for that, I wouldn't have caused my daughter to be injured by a traitor's poisonous needle, if I didn't know, it would be fine, since I knew that there might be injustices here, I always couldn't help but come over to take a look, not to mention the entrustment of the sick man? ”

Hu Man said: "I see, this sick man is really peculiar and eclectic. ”

The three of them are here to talk about the sick man who is like a dragon in the recent legends of the rivers and lakes. On the other side of the teahouse, a storyteller had also opened the book case and patted the case: "Ladies and gentlemen, we said last time: Ning Caizi is the champion in the gold list, and the eldest princess Biluo has a fairy name!" Everyone objectively may want to ask, everyone knows the champion in the gold list, but what is Biluo? How can there be a fairy name? Let me tell you one by one......"

……

The sunset at dusk, on the distant mountain ridge on the river bank, spreads a layer of golden light, and the birds and finches that are ready to return to their nests hovering on the mountain, and the melodious bird calls rise and fall, interweaving a crisp music.

On the sparkling water, with the west bank as the center line, the mountains and the sunset, as well as their reflections, are like a freehand landscape painting, real and hazy reflect each other, the golden light spreads out in the upper and lower parts of the riverbank line in a symmetrical shape, and then together, slowly closes, and the sunset submerges into the mountains little by little.

Night fell after it, but the moon was already hung in the air early, although not as bright as the golden crow, but it brought a more charming moon scene, the boat under the moon, along the water, leisurely down, under the boat, reflected from time to time, with the water waves swaying the moon shadow.

It is like gliding in the ethereal dream, and the peerless beauty on the boat, which is like a painting, intoxicating. The girl in the autumn fragrant breast-length skirt shook the oars, like half a cylinder in the cabin of the boat, and the bright red girl pouted her lips gently: "Isn't it for you to save face?" ”

Opposite her, the young man in Pi Mu Qing's shirt smiled and said, "You guys make up your own stories, why is it my fault again?" ”

Thinking back to the separation, the Hu family siblings looked at their own strange expressions, of course the young man knew that this was Jian Li and Xiao Meng making up a story, and Hu Man and Hu Shuang, who had been shocked by the strength they showed, were really bluffed by them.

The girl in red snorted and looked at him: "Didn't you say it yourself, after you get to this area, you have to start pretending to be sad and pretending to be deep?" Otherwise, others will ask in the future, why did our champion Lang come to Longhu Mountain and want to be a Taoist priest? How do you ask us to answer? ”

Ning Jiang shook his fan and smiled: "That's what I said!" Immediately afterwards, on the small square table between the two, he lit an oil lamp, took out a piece of Shu paper, and scribbled on it.

The girl in red knelt opposite him, her hands were in the shape of flowers supporting her beautiful and flawless face, and she looked curiously at his Shu note, and saw that in the center of the Shu note, there were three big characters written "Dragon and Tiger Mountain", and she drew circles on these three words, and the lines spread out like a spider web, connected with many strange small characters.

She said curiously: "Why do we have to go to Longhu Mountain?" You...... You don't really want to be a Taoist priest, do you? ”

Ning Jiang lowered his head, drew lines on the Shu paper with a quill pen, and replied casually: "Can't you?" ”

The girl in the red robe, her hands were folded on the table, her buttocks were slightly raised, her delicate body leaned forward, and she whispered: "I remember, the Taoist priests of the Zhengyi Sect are different from the Quanqing sect...... The Taoist priests there can marry wives, right? Right? ”

Ning Jiang raised his head and glanced at her: "Why do you ask this?" ”

The girl in the red dress blushed and turned her face sideways: "Also...... That is, just ask. ”

The boy used the tail of the quill pen in his hand to scrape her cute nose lightly: "Yes! ”

The girl in the red dress had a redder face, like a peach, delicate: "People ...... People really just ask. After a while, he looked at the young man again, and saw that he continued to write something on the Shu note, so he probed again and asked in a low voice: "You haven't told me yet, why did we go to Longhu Mountain?" ”

The young man lowered his head: "Do you know Dragon Tiger Mountain, why is it named Dragon Tiger?" ”

The red-robed girl smiled: "Isn't it just those Taoist priests who pretend to be gods and ghosts, and the legend that they have arranged, what do you say that the first generation of Heavenly Masters of the Zhengyi Sect practiced the Nine Heavens Divine Pill in Longhu Mountain, and the Dan became and the Dragon and Tiger appeared...... It's just like the real thing. ”

The young man's quill pen was still writing on the Shu paper, and he said without raising his head: "If I tell you...... Is this true? (To be continued.) )
