During the Shaoxing period of Gaozong of the Southern Song Dynasty, outside the city of Xiangyang, in the mountains and mountains, a giant eagle swirled from the dazzling sun. I saw that the body of the eagle resembled a phoenix, the feathers were like a dragon, suddenly rose into the air, hovered high and low, swept over the mountain, slipped into a hidden deep valley, and suddenly the claws hooked the steep wall, and the wing arms that were as heavy as armor fluttered a few times, shook the dust and rose suddenly, and then settled steadily on the cliff platform boulder more than 20 zhang high. The eagle stands on the high platform, the ruler claw grabs the wall, the seam is tightly fastened, the neck is whistling, the eagle voice is slightly hoarse, but the agitation is desolate, the momentum is very heroic, the majesty is incomparable, the snort is bursting, and the surrounding fallen leaves and flying flowers are trembling.

A man in a purple robe and a white robe, holding a green steel sword, was staring at the green light emitted by the sword. The sharp beak of the back of the sword, which was like a hard blade, pointed straight at the center of the nose, and the man's eyes were blazing, and even the mighty eagle seemed to be shocked, gathered his wings, and stood quietly on the side. The man on the high platform seemed to be unaware of the arrival of the Condor, his robe fluttering in the wind, but his figure stood still. Stared at the golden steel sword in his left hand, and then drew the two big characters "Sword Shrine" into the platform boulder with his right index finger, and then next to it, he still drew a few words with his fingertips in the air: "The sword demon is invincible in the world, but buries the sword in Si." Alack! The heroes are tied, the long swords are sharp, and they are not sad!" It turned out that this middle-aged man in purple clothes and white robes was Dugu Jue, who had been well-known in the rivers and lakes for more than 20 years, known as the Sword Demon, self-proclaimed Seeking Defeat, and surnamed Dugu. But seeing that his face is as white as frost, his hair is like black, and he looks like he is more than thirty years old, if it weren't for the desolate look that appeared in his eyes to see through the world, no one would be able to see that he was past middle age.

Behind Dugu Jue, a young girl placed a green steel sword, a dark iron heavy sword and a wooden sword on the platform, and deliberately left a gap between the green steel sword and the dark iron heavy sword that was enough to install another long sword.

Dugu Jue said to the girl: "Chaoying, for the sake of the teacher, he is arrogant and seeks defeat, but in fact, there is no thought of victory or defeat in his heart, do you understand?" ”

"Master has entered the Tao from martial arts, and has perfected the realm, death and life are like morning dew, and it is a matter of victory or defeat in the world?" The girl said, bowing to Dugu Jue three times: "Master, go in vain!" ”

"Let's go!"

Dugu Jue turned her head, and the girl jumped off the high platform and walked towards the valley mouth, but she was still reluctant to look back at the high platform.

Dugu Jue leaned over and stared at the platform, beside the Qinggang sword, he scribbled in the air with his fingertips, seemingly instructing qi with his fingers, but it was not an air sword. Instead, with the intention of instructing, the bluestone platform seemed to be able to understand its meaning, like soft clay, obediently following Dugu Jue's fingertips, and he concave out the handwriting one by one:

"Fierce and fierce, invincible, and the weak crown is used to compete with the heroes of Heshuo."

"Ziwei soft sword, used before the age of thirty, accidentally injured the righteous is ominous, but it is a deep valley of abandonment"

"The heavy sword has no edge, and the great skill is not worked. Before the age of 40, he was rampant in the world."

"After the age of forty, it is not stagnant in things, and plants, trees, bamboos and stones can be used as swords. Since then, he has refined his cultivation and gradually progressed to the realm where no sword is better than a sword."

After finishing the words, he sighed, "How can you not be stuck in things? Only the two things and the self are forgotten, and the mind and the object are one, but how many people in this realm can be realized in the future generations?"

Then, Dugu Jue's blazing eyes suddenly became deep, and his melancholy eyes seemed to recall the past more than 20 years ago... The grim expression gradually turned into confusion, as if he had returned to the Xuanhe period of the Northern Song Dynasty....

Between the bald hills and dirt slopes covered by yellow sand, 25-year-old Dugu Jue was watching a fight with one enemy and seven enemies, and for a while, swords and swords on the bald hills were full of dust. Dugu looked at it with contempt, and the leader of the seven people was Fang Dongqiu, who had worshiped under him and was the leader of Heshuo in swordsmanship. Seeing that the man who was fighting against the seven people was tall and handsome, his aura was outstanding, and he had no blade in his hand but his palm was wonderful, and he fired several palms in a row, and instantly forced back the seven heroes of Heshuo, and his strong palm power attacked Fang Dongqiu, who was the leader, Fang Dongqiu was so angry that he staggered back a few steps, thanks to a black heavy sword and deep pestle into the ground, which was not overturned. Dugu Jue glanced at it, and knew that Heshuo Qixiong was not that man's opponent, if it weren't for the strange heavy sword in Fang Dongqiu's hand, I am afraid that he would have been defeated in the hands of that man. It seems that there is no need to bother to make a move yourself. To his surprise, the palm technique used by the man seemed to be the long-lost eighteen dragon descending palms in the martial arts. Could it be that he is a member of the beggar gang? But even if it is a beggar gang, it is said that since the death of the previous generations of Xiao Feng's gang leaders, the successive beggar gang leaders have never been able to learn the eighteen palms of the dragon descending, but the eighteen palms of the dragon descending made by this man in front of him are very complete and powerful, who is he?

Just thinking that the Seven Heroes of Heshuo would be defeated, Dugu Jue's ears suddenly moved slightly, and he said, "Huh?" Sure enough, soon, dozens of black-clothed men armed with long knives suddenly emerged from behind the sand dunes, and soon surrounded the man again with the Seven Heroes of Heshuo.

Seeing that the enemy was outnumbered and the situation was threatening, the man did not panic, but retracted his palms, held his breath, and swept the crowd from right to left with disdain, with an indifferent look on his face, but in his mind he was calculating the number of people, observing the weapons in their hands, and calculating the best defense distance. The man calculated silently in his heart: There are twenty enemies, Heshuo Seven Heroes 3 attack and 3 defend, it is not difficult to deal with, only Fang Dongqiu Xuantie heavy sword in hand, when avoided, avoided. There are 32 people who come to the aid of the thieves, so that the long knife, the posture of holding the knife is uneven but the technique is similar, the direction of the encirclement is like a formation, but there is no dead angle to find, it seems that it is not an ordinary person in the rivers and lakes, it should be a group of trained samurai who are good at team battles.

The man is proud of the crowd, and reports that his family is the first gang in the rivers and lakes, the Mingjiao Bright Left Envoy, Feng Lei Ye, born to act openly, righteousness first, and do not kill unknown people under his control. He looked around and said: "You must be from the palace, all of you are masters in the palace, why bother to follow the thief of the rivers and lakes and be ashamed of yourself?" He slowly raised his right hand and pointed directly at Fang Dongqiu: It just so happens that the yellow sand is blind, so I will first take the blood of you, a sword thief, to crush the ashes!

Fang Dongqiu was afraid of Feng Lei Ye's palm technique, and he didn't dare to move forward, but took two steps back, looking left and right, angry and angry, and hurriedly ordered the help of his side to come forward to besiege, but Feng Lei Ye's voice just fell, and he had already stepped to bully Fang Dongqiu, but it was the sound of the east and west, his body was spinning rapidly, and his palms were fired together, and he had killed two famous warriors in a row, Feng Lei Ye's move was intended to seize his momentum and mess up his formation, because he knew that if this group of masked warriors attacked each other in formation, it would be more difficult to deal with than the Seven Heroes of Heshuo. The group of masked warriors saw that Feng Lei Ye killed the two accomplices in an instant, they looked at each other, they were not frightened, they were in the wrong direction, they formed a sword formation, and they had surrounded Feng Lei Ye again. The wind blew, and the dust on the slopes was raised, and the blades rose between the flying sand and the rocks. Dugu Jue saw that the wind and thunder were full of spirit, and he was the Mingjiao Guangming Left Envoy who had eliminated harm for the people in recent years and done a lot of good things, so he had a little more respect in his heart, and he wanted to help, but he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves, and the trampling came. Dugu Jue looked up, and there were several people in Chinese costumes and horses hidden in the dust, tall and large, all of them were fierce. The person at the head had a bright-eyed and very dignified expression, and when he saw so many people besieging one person, he frowned, turned his head and said to the entourage behind him: "It's too unreasonable to bully the widow with so many people!" Then he took his retinue and rushed into the dust, slashed into the sword formation, and helped the wind and thunder. These people are dressed in Han costumes, and they behave like nobles and wealthy merchants, but their posture of horizontal swords and horses, wide and wide, control the cavalry and kill the formation calmly, as if they have been on the battlefield for a long time, it has been revealed that they are by no means ordinary Central Plains martial arts people, but like people from outside the Saiwai,

Dugu Jue saw that there were already people who came to help, and he didn't want to interfere anymore, but the number of people who came was only six, and the seven heroes of Heshuo plus the masked swordsmen were as many as forty, and the victory or defeat was difficult to predict, but those masked swordsmen formed a formation, and dozens of people quickly interacted with each other and corresponded to each other, forming large and small knife circles, circles in circles, and circles outside the circle.

Dugu Jue was concentrating, his internal force was gathered, and he was currently sweeping the audience, in his eyes, those unpredictable knife formations, fast and staggered swordsmen, all slowed down in a moment. He can see fast and slow, this is his natural talent, extremely sensitive sight, hearing, touch, smell, taste, once made him painful, until he grew up and practiced martial arts, gradually able to use his own internal force to control the sending and receiving of these overly sensitive senses, only to become the most unique part of his own martial arts. Dugu Jue saw the number of homes of those masked swordsmen, and saw that they all seemed to have been trained by the same master, so although they came from different sects, they had similar body techniques and a set of the same knife techniques that matched the knife formation. He also saw that the knife formation in a circle seemed to be tight but there were many flaws. It's not that this knife formation is not cleverly designed, but the martial arts of these masked swordsmen are not strong, and they always show flaws between their bodies and blades, yes, their knives are not fast enough! Isn't this what Dugu Jue is most troubled about? He always felt that his sword was not fast enough, far from keeping up with his ability to see fast into slow.

However, although Dugu Jue was not satisfied with his swordsmanship, it was just enough to break this sword formation at the moment!

Dugu Jue watched the battle so far, and he was already sure of breaking the formation in his heart. Thinking that Fang Dongqiu, as the head of the Heshuo Seven Heroes, was also quite famous in the rivers and lakes, and actually made the shameless act of stealing people's swords, he snorted lightly, pulled out the Qinggang sword, slightly pointed his left foot, and his body was like a light hong, flying towards the Heshuo Seven Heroes, and stabbing Fang Dongqiu straight with a sword. Fang Dongqiu had already found out that Dugu Jue was watching the battle nearby, and he knew that he was not his opponent, so he only hoped that Dugu Jue would not interfere. Unexpectedly, Dugu Jue still made a move, and the sword pointed at him. Fang Dongqiu's face was frightened, and he immediately blocked it with the heavy sword in his hand, Dugu Jue had heard from the sound of the heavy sword breaking the wind that this sword was extremely hard, but he was afraid that the green steel sword in his hand would be broken if it hit the heavy sword head-on, and he immediately changed his move, the green steel sword was flat against the sword body of the heavy sword and slid towards Fang Dongqiu's wrist, Fang Dongqiu was startled, turned around and punched, Dugu Jue's left hand made a fight to turn the stars, and with the help of force, Fang Dongqiu's fist strength was pushed to the third Wu Ying of the Heshuo Seven Heroes next to him, and at the same time, the sword in his right hand was still stabbed at Fang Dongqiu's wrist, Fang Dongqiu had to let go, and Dugu Jue snatched the heavy sword from Fang Dongqiu's hands with a slight probe.

Dugu Jue didn't expect the Xuantie heavy sword to be so heavy, and it was inconvenient to wield it for a while, but still with the green steel sword in his right hand, he quickly counted the points, and stabbed Fang Dongqiu and the leader of the three male horses of Heshuo beside him, and also jumped off the horse and fell behind Dugu Jue, and the remaining few followers still rushed back and forth on horseback, and the sword formation of the dozen or so masked warriors was scattered, and the momentum of victory and defeat had been reversed in an instant.

Just when everyone was fighting, on a bald hill not far away, there was a middle-aged monk, with gray robes but eyes like electricity, looking at the three people who were fighting side by side, and muttered to himself: "I think that when I was on Shaomu Mountain, I drank and worshipped with my eldest brother and third brother among the heroes, how high-spirited, at that time, we and the three young people in front of us were as if they were old, and I don't want to be more than 20 years in a blink of an eye..."

Under the combined attack of the three of them, after more than ten moves, the seven heroes of Heshuo and the dozens of black-clothed masked swordsmen with high martial arts were finally defeated and fled. Feng Lei Ye walked towards several black-clothed people who died on the ground, leaned over and rummaged, and sure enough, he found the waist cards of the palace guards, and knew that he had guessed correctly, these people were indeed the masters of the Great Interior sent by Tong Guan to help the Seven Heroes of Heshuo.

Subsequently, Dugu Jue threw the heavy sword he snatched to Feng Lei Ye, Feng Lei Ye took the heavy sword, and turned the hilt of the sword with one finger, and the sword rotated around his back, bringing the wind to howl. Feng Lei Ye hugged his fists and thanked Dugu Jue, then turned to the man in Chinese clothes and bowed to him, and said: "Feng Lei Ye, the left envoy of the Ming Sect, hereby thank the two heroes for their help and recapture the treasure of the town sect, the Xuantie Heavy Sword." Dare to ask the names of the two heroes, and the wind and thunder Ye Yongming are very gracious."

Only then did Dugu Jue know that the heavy sword that Fang Dongqiu stole was actually made of Xuantie, which was originally the treasure of the Ming Sect. He bowed to Feng Lei Ye in return: "Don't be expensive, the surname is Dugu, and the single name is Jue." When the road is uneven, righteousness is the true character of my sons and daughters, and Brother Feng doesn't have to care too much. ”

"Well said! Kill a few thieves, don't take it personally. I am Wan Yanzhong, from Dajin, a member of the Jurchen clan, and I just hope that the two young heroes will not be disgusted because of this. ”

Mingjiao originated from Persia, did not care about the separation between Hu and Han, and had never had a good impression of the Song court, and in recent years, he has killed many corrupt officials of the Song court. What's more, Song Liao fought with each other and had nothing to do with the Jin Kingdom, so Feng Lei Ye saw that Yan Zhong said so cheerfully, so he didn't think that he was a Jurchen of the Jin Kingdom, but felt close, and said: "Brother Wanyan don't have to doubt yourself, my Mingjiao originated from Persia, and there is no shortage of people from the Western Regions in the sect, and there is no difference between Hu and Han, all of whom are people in the world who are rescued by Mingzun." Today, thanks to Brother Yan's rescue, Feng Lei Ye only has a grateful heart, how can he think about the gap? ”

Dugu Jue high-fived and praised: "Brother Feng cares about the suffering of the world, and Mingjiao treats Hu and Han colleagues, this kind of mind is admirable!" Then he asked: "I have heard for a long time that there are many masters of the Ming Sect, and the sect has millions of sects, and it is already the first gang of martial arts in the Central Plains, dare to ask Brother Feng, how can a villain like Fang Dongqiu enter and exit the Ming Sect and steal the Xuantie heavy sword?" ”

Wan Yanzhong is from the Jin country, although he was slightly famous for teaching, but he is not known for teaching so powerful, listening to Dugu Jue's question, he also felt puzzled, and looked at the wind and thunder field.

"It's a long story!" Feng Lei Ye looked at the five retinue warriors lined up behind Wan Yan Zhong, all of them had dismounted, standing solemnly in front of the horse, his eyes were sharp, he had caught a glimpse of the saddle tied to the wine bag, and asked arrogantly: "No wine, no joy, can Brother Wan Yan bring the spirits to drink together?" ”

Wan Yanzhong laughed heartily, and immediately ordered someone to take the wine bag on the saddle, and he and Feng Lei Ye and Dugu Jue drank each other.

Feng Lei Ye raised his head and drank heavily, and praised: "Good wine!" ", and then told Wan Yanzhong and Dugu Jue about Fang Dongqiu's infiltration into the Ming Sect to steal the sword.

It turns out that the Heshuo Seven Heroes have already been bought by Tong Guan, a few days ago disguised as Mingjiao disciples, mixed into the Mingjiao main altar, originally wanted to steal the Mingjiao Holy Fire Order and the Qiankun Great Mind Shifting Method, with the Holy Fire Order, Tong Guan can be used to order the Mingjiao congregation, as for the Qiankun Great Mind Shifting Law is that the Heshuo Seven Heroes themselves want to keep it to practice divine skills. Although the Heshuo Seven Heroes disguised themselves as sect members and hid their whereabouts, they were still discovered by the sharp-eyed Feng Lei Ye, so they failed to steal the Holy Fire Order and the Qiankun Great Mind Shifting Method, but they accidentally stole the Xuantie Sword, so Feng Lei Ye took several Mingjiao masters to chase all the way, but he didn't expect someone to pick up the Heshuo Seven Heroes along the way, so that the Mingjiao masters who followed him were tripped up, and only Feng Lei Ye was left alone to continue to track the Heshuo Seven Heroes, not to mention that he didn't expect to chase here, and there was someone who responded, and he was a master of Ouchi, I think this is the meeting place that the Seven Heroes of Heshuo agreed with them.

Speaking of this, Feng Lei Ye snorted: "Tong Guan, that dog official, underestimates my Mingjiao too much!" The Holy Fire Order and the Qiankun Great Mind Shifting Method are all things that our sect leader carries with him, if the Heshuo Seven Heroes really want to steal the treasure from the Fang sect leader, I am afraid that they will not even be able to get out of the main altar. Count them lucky, they didn't bump into Sect Leader Fang, and blame me for being careless, I didn't expect them to know a secret way to enter and exit the main altar, which made them steal the Xuantie heavy sword! If it weren't for the help of the two of them, I would have lost the Xuantie Heavy Sword, and I would have to apologize with death."

"I see, fortunately, the sword is not damaged, and Brother Feng doesn't have to blame himself too much!"

"Yes, in the words of you Han people, what is it called... Return to Zhao! ”

Feng Lei Ye and Dugu Jue glanced at each other, and Wan Yanzhong knew from their looks that he might have dropped the wrong book bag, and laughed:

"Although I have been learning Chinese since I was a child, I am not familiar with it, and I speak inappropriately, which makes the two heroes laugh!"

Feng Lei Ye and Dugu Jue also laughed when they saw that Yan Zhong was talking happily. Feng Lei Ye said: "There is nothing wrong! It's very appropriate! The three of them sat on the floor, laughing and talking, and they all felt very compatible.

During the conversation, Feng Lei Ye knew that Dugu Jue was from the "Tumi Villa", a young swordsman who had defeated many martial arts masters in recent years, and from his mouth, he could actually say the different martial arts moves of those black-clothed people, which shows that Dugu definitely knows a lot about the martial arts of various sects. And Wan Yanzhong claimed to yearn for the prosperity of the Great Song Dynasty, so he came to travel. In his life, he hated bullying widows with the public, so when he saw the Seven Heroes of Heshuo and the masked swordsmen besieging Fengleiye, they must help each other in life or death. Dugu absolutely finished Yan Zhong so righteously, very respectful, he finished reading Yan Zhong's martial arts, and his entourage are different, it seems to be the Central Plains martial arts, so he asked who taught Yan Zhong's martial arts? He said that his father once met a Liao man who grew up in the Great Song Dynasty, Uncle Xiao, and his martial arts were very good, so later his father specially invited a famous teacher from the Great Song Dynasty to teach his son martial arts. Wan Yanzhong also said that his father often said that it was a pity that Uncle Xiao died early, otherwise if he could worship Uncle Xiao as a teacher, his martial arts would definitely be much higher than now.

After hearing Yan Zhong mention Uncle Xiao, Dugu Jue took the opportunity to ask Feng Lei Ye:

"Dare to ask Brother Feng, is the palm technique you made is the eighteen palms of the dragon descending?"

"Exactly, my palm technique has been lost for a long time, and Brother Dugu can see it at a glance, martial arts are really profound!"

Dugu Jue wanted to ask Feng Lei Ye again, he was a member of the Ming Sect, how could he make the beggars gang descend the dragon eighteen palms? But if you want to ask such a question, it is already an invasion of people's privacy, and there is something inappropriate. Feng Lei Ye observed the words and looks, and knew the hesitation in Dugu Jue's heart, he was open-minded by nature, and respected Dugu Jue, so he told him frankly:

"Brother Dugu don't have to be suspicious, I didn't learn this palm technique from the beggar gang, but passed it on by my mother?"

"Ling Ci? The eighteen palms of the dragon descending are extremely masculine, and they must be supplemented by deep internal force, I can't imagine that Ling Ci can..."

Before Dugu Jue finished speaking, Feng Lei Ye immediately smiled and said, "My mother only taught me the secret book of the palm technique, and she herself will not make the eighteen palms of the dragon descending." Don't hide it from the Dugu brothers, I have been learning my father since I was a child, and I have my own mother, and then I was fortunate to be trained by the Fang Sect Master, which is a little successful. As for why my mother has the secret book of the eighteen palms of the dragon, it involves the selfishness of the mother, please forgive me for not saying more, but Brother Dugu can rest assured, the secret book given to me by my mother is not stolen from the beggar gang, but when my mother was young, she had followed a heroic predecessor for many years. ”

Speaking of this, Feng Lei Ye sighed and said, "This heroic predecessor seems to have a lot of connections with the Wanyan brothers, and I guess it is the Uncle Xiao in the Wanyan brothers' mouths." ”

"Really? Uncle Xiao and Brother Feng's mother met? ”

"Don't just know each other..."Feng Lei Ye said four words, suddenly lowered his head and was silent, his expression was slightly sentimental, Wan Yanzhong and Dugu Jue both understood that it was related to Feng Lei Ye's parents, and their life experience was private, Feng Lei Ye didn't want to say more, so they naturally didn't have to ask more.

Wan Yanzhong shouted, "Okay!" He took Feng Lei Ye and Dugu Jue's hands and said, "Since it is fate, you should not miss it." Why don't the three of us marry Jin Lan and treat each other as brothers from now on? ”

Feng Lei Ye clenched Wan Yan Zhong: "Thanks to Brother Wan Yan for not giving up, Feng Mou feels the same way in his heart!" ”

Then he turned his head and glanced at Dugu Jue, who nodded at Feng Lei Ye and Wan Yanzhong.

The three of them are compared to the year, Wanyan Zhongju is long, Feng Lei Ye Zhongzhi, and Dugu Jue are three. Immediately, between the soil slopes, the soil was used as a furnace, the sword was inserted as incense, and the heaven and earth were sold, and they swore to be brothers and sisters, and life and death were shared.

At this time, a large number of Mingjiao backup arrived, Feng Lei Ye got up to greet him, and the leading "Pure Hundred Protectors" Shui Baina informed Feng Lei Ye that they were surrounded halfway, so the main altar sent a number of religious friends to help, and the two sides confirmed each other, and sure enough, the people who besieged them were all palace masters assigned by Tong Guan, and several brothers of Ming Sect were a little injured, but there was no big problem. Shui Baina looked at the corpses everywhere, obviously fighting fiercely, and urgently asked Feng Lei Ye if he was injured.

Feng Lei Ye waved his hand and said: "Please rest assured, the Protector King, I have the eldest brother and the third brother who want to help, how can the group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals under Tong Guan hurt me?" ”

After speaking, I remembered that there were still important things in the teaching. Feng Lei Ye turned around and said goodbye to Wan Yanzhong and Dugu Jue:

"Big brother, third brother, the sect leader has an order, ordering me to return to the main altar quickly. The mountains are high and the waters are long, I hope that the eldest brother and the third brother will be able to come to my sect's main altar to talk about it, and the sect leader will be very happy! ”

Wan Yanzhong smiled: "Go!" Go! I was supposed to walk around this time and enjoy the scenery of the Great Song Dynasty, but sooner or later I would have to disturb the second brother! ”

Dugu Jue also responded: "There must be a way to travel, when the younger brother returns to Zhuang Yuming's mother, he should go to your sect to meet the second brother one day!" ”

The interaction between the three of them was cherished, and they said goodbye. Feng Lei Ye and Shui Baina left with the Ming Sect people, Wan Yan Zhong also turned on his horse, and led the five retinue warriors to raise their whips to the north, Dugu Jue walked slowly, crossed the sand dunes, and walked towards the "Tumi Villa".

Wan Yanzhong traveled several miles north, and dozens of warriors dressed as Han Chinese but riding tall horses were greeted on the side of the road. When those warriors saw Wan Yan Zhong, they hurriedly dismounted, leaned over and bowed, and respectfully called Wan Yan Zhong the "Bodhisattva Prince". It turned out that Wanyan Zhong's real name was Wanyan Zongwang, and he was actually the son of Wanyan Aguta, the lord of the Jin Kingdom, because he was kind and kind, and he was extremely merciful to the people with his troops, so everyone respectfully called him "Bodhisattva Prince".

Wan Yan Zhong admired Feng Lei Ye and Dugu Jue very much, and had already intended to make friends, but he was afraid that if he said that he was the prince of Jin Guo, the two of them would hesitate, so he lied to them and said that he was a rich businessman of Jin State, named Wan Yan Zhong. Wanyan Zongwang waved his hand to signal everyone to get up, and said:

"When I came to the Song Dynasty this time, I deliberately changed my Hanfu, not because I was willing to reveal my identity easily. In the future, everyone will be commensurate with each other, just call me big brother, don't call me any more Bodhisattva prince! ”

Then, Wanyan Zongwang looked back at the way he had come and sighed:

"The Song Dynasty has a wide range of people, heroes and heroes, the second and third brothers are all dragons and phoenixes among the people, I can become brothers with them, this trip can be said to be very fruitful!"

All this is in the eyes of the monks on the bald hill, at this time it is the second year of Xuanhe of Huizong of the Northern Song Dynasty, 1120 AD,

After Feng Lei Ye said goodbye to Dugu Jue and Yan Zhong, he returned to the main altar with the Xuantie Sword and the Mingjiao Heroes on his back, and before passing through a fork in the road, he suddenly saw a young woman about twenty-seven or eight years old flying in front of him, and behind the woman, there were four middle-aged women with gray faces chasing after her, and finally caught up with the woman at the fork, separated the four corners, and surrounded her. Feng Lei Ye glanced at it curiously, and saw that the woman was wearing a dark red long robe, with a bright look, a straight nose, frowning, stubborn and arrogant. When she looked at the four middle-aged women surrounding her, she was even more surprised, because the four middle-aged women looked exactly the same. The woman in red moved very quickly, and when she saw that she couldn't escape, she didn't wait for the four middle-aged women to wait for her hands, her wrists flipped over, and she held a dagger on the left and right sides and turned around to stab the four women at the same time. It's just that although the woman in red has spicy methods, she can't resist the encirclement of four middle-aged women. Feng Lei Ye and the Mingjiao group watched a few rounds, and they knew that the woman in red would be captured by four middle-aged women sooner or later, but they didn't know what the grievances between them were, who was right and who was wrong, so they only watched the battle from the sidelines and did not intervene.

The woman in red knew that she was resisting the siege of the four women, so she suddenly turned over and jumped up, broke away from the encirclement, and gently landed outside the sword circle of the four women. After seeing the woman in red float to the ground, she turned to the four middle-aged women, raised her thumb and showed her ring, and shouted: "Seeing this ring is like seeing the palace master, you are still so unreasonable!" ”

The four middle-aged women took their swords and shook the ring in the hand of the woman in red respectfully, and then said in unison: "This ring is a sacred relic in the palace, please return it to the slaves and maids and bring it back to the palace master." ”

The woman in red flicked her long sleeves, held the ring in her hand, and shouted angrily:

"Mei, Lan, bamboo, chrysanthemum, you can see clearly, where does my appearance not look like a palace master? I take my own things, how can I return them! ”

The four middle-aged women looked at each other, nodded to each other, and said no more, and then surrounded the woman in red again with their swords. Feng Lei Ye had already seen that the four middle-aged women obviously had scruples and didn't want to hurt the woman in red, so they gave in from time to time when they used their swords, otherwise they would have already taken down the woman in red. The woman in red was one against four, knowing that she was definitely not an opponent, she dodged while attacking, and at a glance she saw Feng Lei Ye and the Ming Sect heroes, and shouted loudly: "Hey! If you are a real hero and a good man, you are here to help! A group of people in Wuyang, looking at some people here who bully the small with the big and the small, and the more bully the less, they don't move, they don't move, and none of them are real heroes! ”

Feng Lei Ye deliberately plucked out his ears with his hand, smiled at the red-faced woman, and deliberately said that he would ignore it, and the woman in red was even more angry, and her scolding suddenly increased, and she kept saying viciously: "Okay! You turtle kings, all of them with knives and guns, seem to be silver-like wax spear heads, which are useless, one is carved from wood and carved from stone? Do you still look like a man? I think even the eunuchs who have been castrated for eighteen generations are more like men than you! ”

Feng Lei Ye was helpless to be noisy, and flew in front of the woman in red, the woman in red saw that she had provoked him to make a move, and she was secretly happy in her heart, and she was thinking that she could breathe a sigh of relief, but unexpectedly, Feng Lei Ye reflexively grabbed her instantly, wrapped one hand around her thin shoulders, pulled out the ring in her hand with the other, and threw it to the four middle-aged women, saying:

"I hate people stealing the most in my life, I just finished teaching Fang Dongqiu, but I didn't expect to meet such a little girl like you again!"

The four middle-aged women got the ring, and said in unison: "Mei, Lan, bamboo, chrysanthemum, thank you here" It seems that they are not only twins in appearance, they are exactly the same, and even their hearts are similar to each other. After the four middle-aged women thanked Feng Lei Ye, they put away their swords and left.

The woman in red was caught by the wind and thunder, and she couldn't stand up straight, angry and annoyed. "How long do you want to hold on?" So you're a frivolous scoundrel! ”

The word "light and thin" really worked, and Feng Lei Ye immediately let go of the woman in red.

The woman in red rubbed her shoulders and said angrily to Feng Lei Ye: "You took away my ring and give it back to me!" ”

Feng Lei Ye pointed to the four middle-aged women who were far away and said, "Rings? Didn't you see that it had been taken by the four of them? ”

"I don't care, you took it from me, you have to go and get it back for me!" The woman in red was in a hurry, and she spilled.

Feng Lei Ye smiled: "It's not difficult for me to help you get that ring back, but you have to tell me first, who are you?" And that ring is really yours? Or did you steal it from them? ”

"I stole it from them? Hum! They are just slaves in my Vulture Palace, so what qualifications do I have to steal from them? ”

"So you're from the Vulture Palace?" Although the Vulture Palace rarely set foot in the martial arts of the Central Plains, it commanded 36 caves and 72 islands, and its momentum was extremely huge. The former palace master Xuzhu is rumored to be the number one master in the martial arts, and Feng Lei Ye has naturally heard of the Vulture Palace for a long time.

Feng Lei Ye pondered the conversation between the woman in red and the four women before, the four women did call themselves slaves to the woman in red, it seems that it is a grudge in the door of the Vulture Palace, and it is difficult for him to distinguish right from wrong for a while. After a moment of thought, he laughed and said, "The ring is here, you can take it!"

Seeing that Feng Lei Ye was magical, the woman took out another ring from her back and threw it back to her, she took it casually and took a look, sure enough, it was the ring she had just grabbed in her hand, she was amazed in her heart, and asked:

"And what about the ring you just gave them?

"Tricks, have you heard of it?" Feng Lei Ye didn't want to be nosy, and strode away, but the woman in red called him: "Hey! Don't you want to know what my name is? You tell me first, what is your name, and I will tell you, my name. ”

"The girl's name, I'm suddenly not interested in it now!"

"Humph! You don't want to know, I'm going to tell you too! However, I only tell you my surname, my surname is Li, I am the palace master of the Vulture Palace, do you know? ”

Feng Lei Ye didn't believe that the woman in front of him was the Vulture Palace Master, but the other party not only reported his family but also confided his surname, and if he didn't answer, it would be too rude, so he said: "In the wind Lei Ye." ”

"Wind Thunder Wild... But the left envoy of the Ming Sect? The woman in red was slightly surprised.

"Exactly!"

"No wonder you're so good!"

Feng Lei Ye hugged his fists and said, "Don't dare, Miss Li is too famous." ”

"I'm not done yet, what are you talking about? Although he is the left envoy of the Ming Sect, he is a big man who can only bully little women! ”

After speaking, without waiting for Feng Lei Ye to answer, the woman in red performed light skills and drifted away. Feng Lei Ye looked at the back of the woman in red, angry and funny, and shook his head.

After leaving the soil slope, Dugu Jue returned to the "Tumi Villa" outside Kaifeng City, in a deserted forest, he put on a red robe, held a green steel sword, jumped into the forest clearing, a group of tigers, falcons immediately slaughtered and bitten him. It turned out that near the clearing in the forest, dozens of giant trees were densely covered, and the giant trees tied a tiger with iron chains at low points every few feet, and a falcon was tied to a rope at the high place. I saw those tigers and eagles rushing towards Dugu Juezi like crazy, Dugu Jue looked at the tigers and eagles beside him, the originally very fast movements, all became very slow in his eyes, Dugu Jue took out his sword and quickly forced them back one by one. Then, Dugu Jue closed his eyes, his ears moved slightly, and through his extremely sensitive ears, he could hear the small sound of every flying eagle in the tree on the branches or in the air, as well as the applause of the tiger's feet in the roar, without opening his eyes, he could know the location of every eagle and every tiger.

Dugu Jue is concentrating on practicing swords with tigers and eagles, although he is gifted, he can see fast and slow, listen to sound and distinguish shapes, in his ears and eyes, every claw and every flutter of those tigers and eagles are in his calculations, and the bites of tigers and eagles that others look extremely fast are as slow as an old man in the twilight of his eyes. But although his ears and eyes were fast, the speed of the sword could not keep up with his ears and eyes, and if he was not careful, he only heard the sound of the falcon's sharp toes and claws, and the red robe had been wiped out of a half-meter-long gap. Dugu Jue immediately lifted his red robe, revealing a white robe, turned over and pounced on a fierce tiger head-on. At this time, a young girl's exclamation came from beside him, "Brother, be careful!" , and then the color shadow swept in, the girl struck the tiger with her palm, and pushed away the tiger that pounced on Dugu Jue with the technique of fighting and turning the stars, but she didn't expect the tiger body to be extremely soft, and turned her head to bite the girl in mid-air, seeing that the girl would be injured in the tiger's mouth, Dugu Jue held the girl with one hand, and stabbed the tiger's throat with a sword, and at the same time jumped back for several feet, and threw the red robe to the tiger and eagle, those tigers and eagles immediately tore towards the red robe, and instantly shattered the red robe into pieces.

Under the shade of the trees, the girl moved lightly from Dugu Jue's arms, her face was full of shame, and then she remembered something, and stroked her cheeks in a panic. Dugu Jue asked her with concern:

"Sister Jiao, what's wrong? Has the poison recurred recently? You have to take your medicine on time, don't be naughty! ”

It turned out that this cardamom girl with colorful neon clothes and watery eyebrows and eyes was the pearl of the old lady Murong of Tumi Villa - only a few months younger than Dugu Jue, and Murong Jiaojiao, who was twenty-four years old. Kyaukjiao felt very happy about Dugu's concern, and hurriedly replied:

"Brother, don't worry, I'm very well-behaved, no matter how bitter the medicine is, I will take it on time! It's my brother, why does he look distressed? ”

Dugu Jue sighed lightly: "Sister Jiao, are you fast enough to see my swordsmanship?" ”

"Hurry! My brother's swordsmanship is so big that I'm dazzled! There is no faster swordsmanship in the world than my brother! ”

"Not fast enough!" Dugu Jue pointed to the red robe torn apart by the tiger and eagle in the forest and said: "If my swordsmanship is fast enough, the red robe will not be torn apart by the tiger and the eagle, and Sister Jiao will not almost die in order to save me." ”

Jiaojiao argued: "I can't blame you, it was my own recklessness and breaking in, but it distracted you!" In her eyes, Dugu Jue is perfect, and she can't tolerate people saying that he is not at all, not even Dugu Jue himself.

"Sister Jiao, you don't need to comfort me, whether the sword is fast or not, I know better than anyone else in my heart. You know that my sense of sight, hearing, and touch has been different from ordinary people since I was a child. As long as I concentrated, I could see fast and slow, I could hear the sound of horses' hooves miles away, and even feel the weight of a dead leaf falling on my shoulder as I galloped. But my eyes and ears are sharp, but my sword cannot keep up. Just now, every seemingly swift swoop of the tigers and eagles seemed to me as slow as an old man on the verge of death, and I could see countless flaws at a glance, but my sword could not be fast enough to poke at them. ”

After speaking, Dugu Jue was slightly frustrated and handed the Qinggang sword to Jiaojiao, who took the Qinggang sword in Dugujue's hand and handed it to the swordsman standing beside him, who wiped the Qinggang sword carefully and carefully put it into the scabbard. Then Kyaukjiao gently wiped Dugu Jue's neck, sweat beads and dust on his palm with his own handkerchief, and then took out a sword rein from his arms, the sword reins were composed of gold silk wearing glass beads, small and chic, light yellow glass beads were crystal clear, and they were shining in the sun.

"Look good!" Jiaojiao told Dugu Jue: "Don't underestimate it, this glass bead is from the Western Xia royal family, my grandmother passed down, has been treasured by my mother in the treasure box, a few days ago I saw it, I thought if it can be made into a sword reins on my brother's green steel sword, it must be very beautiful!" I begged for a long time before my mother agreed to give me the orb! I was afraid that my craftsmanship was not good, so I asked Aunt Bi, who was the most skillful female worker in the village, to find me gold wire, and I stayed up for three nights to make the reins of the sword. Brother, do you like it? ”

Dugu Jue took the reins of the sword and looked at it carefully, he understood Jiaojiao's intentions, and tied it to the hilt of his sword very preciously. Jiaojiao saw that Dugu liked it, and she was very happy in her heart. Then Jiaojiao remembered that Dugu was troubled by the fact that he could not break through the swordsmanship, and remembered that Zhuangli had an extremely rich collection of martial arts books, and said:

"Brother, let's go back to the library in the village to look for it, and look through those swordsmanship cheats, maybe we can trigger some inspiration and make your swordsmanship faster!"

Dugu Jue shook his head and sighed:

"Sister Jiao, I have read all the martial arts secrets of various sects and sects in my home, and I know all those martial arts in my chest, and there is nothing worth reading and learning again. What I want to do now is to take the Murong family's peerless "Dou Zhuan Xing Shift" as the foundation, and integrate those martial arts from various sects and sects with completely different mental moves in those martial arts secret books into my Dugu clan's family heirloom swordsmanship, and use it to create a new swordsmanship. If it is self-created, it is not something that can be learned from books. ”

"I understand, that's why my brother came up with the sword practice method of fighting eagles and tigers, the purpose is that in the face of attacks from all directions and everywhere, your swordsmanship can not only seek speed, but also integrate various martial arts into swordsmanship. Am I right? ”

Dugu Jue glanced at Jiaojiao in surprise, and then praised: "Sister Jiaojiao is so smart, if you are willing to calm your mind and practice, martial arts will definitely be above me in the future." ”

"My brother is laughing at me again!" Her cheeks flushed, and she suddenly remembered something, and asked:

"The martial arts secrets hidden in our village are available in all sects, why is my brother only obsessed with swordsmanship after studying it? Is it just to promote the Dugu family's family swordsmanship? ”

"Although my Dugu clan's swordsmanship is exquisite, it is too complicated and cannot be called a peerless swordsmanship, so I want to use the family heirloom swordsmanship and the Murong family's Douzhuan Xingxing as the basis to extract the strengths of each family and create a new swordsmanship. But this is only one of them, for the sword, I have loved it since I was a child, any weapon in my eyes, is not as good as the sword, I can't say what it is for, it is to love the sword. ”

"My brother has loved swords since he was a child, no wonder my mother and Aunt Bi often laugh at you for being a little sword demon!"

Dugu Jue laughed: "The sword demon is the sword demon, but this word "small" can be removed now, because I have grown up!" ”

Speaking of this, Dugu Jue's heart flashed with inspiration, remembering that the sword moves with him, and he asked the sword to be fast, and he should first ask for speed. But how can you make yourself faster?

While he was thinking about it, he suddenly felt a person approaching behind him silently. Dugu Jue was shocked, with his ear power and spirit, it can be said that there is no match in the world, and he realized that someone can get close to him within a zhang of him, and he realizes that this person's martial arts are really terrifying.

Dugu Jue gently pushed Jiaojiao away, turned around, and drew his sword, but the man stopped two feet in front of his sword. Dugu looked at the man intently, with black hair and white skin, and no wrinkles on his face, as if he was less than thirty years old. But with a shabby monk's uniform, it is like a middle-aged age, it should be because of his superb internal skills, so he looks young.

The monk opened his mouth and explained the doubts in Dugu Jue's heart: "This benefactor's internal strength and swordsmanship are high, and the martial arts he has learned are very extensive, and he seems to have been involved in the mastery of various sects, but unfortunately he has not been able to melt the peerless knowledge of those sects into a furnace, and it is hindered. ”

Kyaukjiao returned the favor unconvinced:

"What nonsense are you talking about? My brother's swordsmanship is the best in the world, so what's in the way? ”

The monk was not annoyed by Jiaojiao's rudeness, and looked at Dugu Jue with warm eyes: "Swordsmanship is based on Shen Yun and agility, and body footwork is the key to determining the speed of the sword. ”

This said to Dugu Jue's heart, he knew that the monk in front of him who looked and dressed very ordinarily was really a rare master, so he said respectfully:

"What the master said is very true, and the juniors also think that only agile and fast body skills can make my swordsmanship go to the next level. Don't hide from the master, the younger generation has been different from ordinary people since childhood, and the thunderous sword moves in the eyes of others are only like flying flakes in the eyes of the younger generations, but unfortunately the younger generations can only see the flaws, but the sword in their hands often can't keep up with their eyesight. The younger generation thought to himself, the sword moves with him, it must be that the younger generation's body technique is not flexible enough, so the sword technique is not fast. But how to keep up with his body and sword moves to keep up with his eyesight, the younger generation has never been able to figure out the key. ”

The monk smiled and said, "The sword is in Shen Yun, and it is very agile." Donor, you use your strong internal force to make the sword, more than strong and not enough charm. It is necessary to know that the swordsmanship should be fast, and the body should be fast; The body should be fast, and the footwork should be fast first. Have you ever thought that the problem lies in your footwork?

Dugu suddenly realized, bowed to the old monk, and said: "The master has ordered, and the younger generation has been taught." ”

The monk was very impressed by Dugu Jue's understanding, nodded and said, "I'll teach you a set of footwork!" ”

After the monk finished speaking, he didn't care whether Dugu Jue accepted it or not, and then while reciting the mantra, he demonstrated a set of footwork in front of Dugu Jue. This set of footwork is extremely complicated, but Dugu Jue has a very high understanding and good memory, and by the time the monk demonstrated it for the third time, he had memorized all the footsteps.

He was overjoyed, and immediately took the Qinggang sword from the swordsman's hand, and tried to integrate the footwork with his own sword moves, but as soon as he made a move, he felt that the sword moves were several times faster than before, and the power was greatly enhanced. He knew very well that he had only just learned and practiced, and if he took time to combine footwork and swordsmanship with mastery, his swordsmanship and martial arts attainments would inevitably be greatly improved.

Dugu Jue was very grateful, and at the same time wondered who the monk was? Why are you willing to teach him footwork? This footwork is so wonderful, what kind of footwork is it? Dugu Jue was about to open his mouth to ask, but the monk had quietly left, and said as he walked: "Stop and don't need to say, my law is wonderful." This donor, don't be suspicious, I saw you help people before, and saw you handsome and beautiful, remembered my third brother, so pass you this set of Ling Bo micro steps, this is a very superior martial arts, every step, body shape is closely related to internal force, the donor practice this footwork, not only can enhance the internal strength, but also can be used to learn the donor's previous martial arts of various schools of martial arts integrated into this footwork, over time, the donor's swordsmanship can therefore take the strengths of all families, create their own unique swordsmanship! But I hope that after the donor's swordsmanship is completed, he will do more chivalrous things." After speaking, he was gone.

Dugu Jue bowed to the monk's voice and said loudly: "Thank you for the master's guidance, Dugu Jue will definitely live up to the master's kindness." ”

Looking at the direction of the disappearance of the monk's back, Dugu Jue bowed three times, and was about to try his footwork and sword moves again, when he suddenly heard a few light and crisp piano sounds outside the forest, and immediately turned around and flew away to the forest. Murong Jiaojiao immediately followed Dugu Jue, his body was so fast, and his light skills didn't seem to be under Dugu Jue. Jiaojiao's ears are not as good as Dugu Jue, until outside the forest, I heard the sound of the piano of the famous prostitute Li Shishi in the capital, I couldn't help frowning slightly, and sighed with a long sigh full of vinegar, just because she had already liked Dugu Jue who grew up with her.

Sure enough, in the Houke Pavilion outside the "Tumi Villa", there was an old man with a clear face and a woman with a beautiful conversation and smile, who were Zhou Bangyan who lifted the Dasheng Mansion and Li Shishi, a famous prostitute in the capital. One of these two is good at music and rhythm, and the other is moving, and they are not related to the martial arts rivers and lakes, but Dugu Jue has been extremely sensitive to rhyme since he was a child because of his excellent ear power, and he has a lot of ancient scores and rhymes hidden in the village.

In the Houke Pavilion, Master Li's piano sound was exquisite, and Zhou Bangyan listened to it fascinated. After seeing Dugu Jue, Master Li's piano gradually stopped, the three of them looked at each other and smiled, Zhou Bangyan said to Dugu Jue:

"I know that Dugu Shaoxia's ears are outstanding, so we greeted each other with the sound of the piano in this forest pavilion, and the young man really heard the sound. It's only been a few months, and the old man saw that the young man's body and footwork were more agile when he came, and his martial arts went to the next level, which is really gratifying! ”

Dugu said: "Lord Zhou has an overreputation, and the younger generation is ashamed. Why don't you enter the village and allow the younger generations to serve tea to listen to the clear sound? ”

Zhou Bangyan smiled: "I'm about to bother!" ”

So Dugu Jue ordered the swordsman to lead the way, and he walked slowly with Zhou Bangyan and Master Li, chatting and laughing, and entered the "Tuyu Villa" together. Murong Jiaojiao followed quietly, although he was annoyed in his heart, his face did not show anger. Although she was jealous of Master Li, she also respected Master Zhou very much, so she didn't say much. The swordsman and the four of them then entered the "Tu Yu Villa" together. In the villa, the houses are simple, the gardens are elegant, delicate and introverted, beautiful but not glamorous. Every time Zhou Bangyan enters the garden, he has to praise the pure spirit of Mrs. Murong for the subtle beauty of "Tumi Villa" hidden everywhere in this garden.
