Chapter 22: The Golden Lion King
(Thanks to Io Casstar and Artichoke Baba for the tip!) Today's three watches, ask for recommendations! Collect! I'm going to go on a business trip to Jiangsu in a few days, at least half a month, and I'm in a hurry myself, trying to ensure stable updates. Auto-update sometimes updates a chapter more than once, it could be a refresh issue, I've had it twice.
My general setting is to start updating at 0:10, with chapters every four minutes. )
Lu Yuan once estimated that the island of ice and fire was mostly near the Arctic Circle, because the book mentioned signs such as long days and short nights, ice floes on the sea, etc., which were very similar to the small islands in the south of Sakhalin. This time, the actual orientation should be the west of the Japanese island, the south of the Liaodong Peninsula, not far from the Central Plains. If Zhang Cuishan's family had gone west instead of south, they would have landed on land long ago.
The Island of Ice and Fire is just a small island, not as fairyland as the book describes. Lu Yuan first asked the boat to circle the island, and then found a sheltered mountain headland in the northeast, and anchored in deep water. Until now, Lu Yuan couldn't be sure if this was Ice and Fire Island, so he could only arrange it according to Ice and Fire Island first.
Ten soldiers were left to guard the ships with crossbows. Lu Yuan took fifteen soldiers and twenty sailors and drove a small boat to the island.
After going ashore, Lu Yuan and Monk Peng set up a small coffee table on the beach, and the two sat on the ground drinking tea and waiting, surrounded by fifteen soldiers scattered to escort them.
The remaining twenty sailors dispersed, shouting in groups of two, "Where is Xie Xun, the golden lion king?" Shaolin land ochre came to visit! ”
"Who's there to croak!" , a shout came. Although the voice was low, it was like the bronze bell of the great temple, and the ear drums of the people who shook it were buzzing. Lu Yuan and Monk Peng looked at each other in surprise, Xie Xun roared at Wang Panshan and killed the heroes, this internal force is really amazing!
As soon as the words fell, I saw a burly man walk out of the woods on the side of the mountain! The big man was full of blond hair, and his body was also dressed in animal skins, and he walked out with a big knife in his hand, which was similar to Xie Xun's appearance description in the book. Lu Yuan looked carefully, and saw that his face was full of hair, and he really couldn't tell if he was blind. That Xie Xun walked on the mountains, forests, trees and stones, and only saw that he was walking on the ground, and he couldn't see any visual obstacles.
"It's the golden lion king Xie Xun here?! Shaolin Lu ochre came to visit. Lu Yuan got up and said.
Xie Xun came to stand firmly outside the ten zhang, and sneered, "Where did the little monk come from!" Dare to call the old man by his name! Tell your master to come and answer. ”
"Oh, my mentor is a monk of emptiness, if you want to see it, you need to follow me to Shaolin. Your master Cheng Kun's pseudonym is Yuanzhen, and when I see him, I just call him a senior brother, why not call you Xie Xun! Lu Yuan saw that Xie Xun was unruly, so he let go of his plan to make friends.
"You were sent by Cheng Kun's dog thief!" Xie Xun had been thinking about revenge for several years, and when he suddenly heard the name of the enemy, he felt that his brain was buzzing, and he opened his mouth and roared.
"King Xie Fa stays, don't you know the old people?!" Peng Yingyu and Xie Xun are Mingjiao brothers, the two have similar talents, and they have had many contacts in the past, but now when they see Xie Xun coming over, they ignore themselves, as if they don't know, they can't help but feel angry.
"Who are you?" Xie Xun didn't turn his gaze, but listened attentively, "Which family are you from?!" The surname Xie had bad eyes in his early years, and now he can't hear it. ”
"I'm Peng Yingyu." When Monk Peng heard the reason, he was angry and said calmly. Seeing Xie Xun listening attentively, he felt some pity in his heart, thinking that Xie Xun was literary and graceful back then, and he was the deputy head of the Ming Sect, what a beautiful scenery. Now he was unkempt and dressed in animal skins, like a wild man. "Back then, I drank and talked with Brother Xie in the light, Brother Xie was beautiful, how can I ...... now?"
"The surname Xie is in trouble for a while, and there is nothing to say. Since it was Xie's old friend, I don't know what to learn. ”
"If King Xie has spare time, there are two old things to talk about with King Xie, but please listen carefully to King Xie, don't interrupt halfway. Luckily? ”
Xie Xun was silent for a long time before he answered, shook off the fur on his body, and sat down on the ground. It's just ten zhang away, obviously very guarded. Peng Yingyu thought of Xie Xun back then, how atmospheric and chic he was. However, this was the case, and Monk Peng didn't say much, and directly retreated behind Lu Yuan to stand still.
As soon as the primary and secondary appeared, Xie Xun, who had a smart ear, was also stunned when he heard it, and secretly thought that this little monk could not be a descendant of Yang Dingtian? Otherwise, Monk Peng, as a member of the Mingjiao Five Scattered People, has a noble status, how could he be willing to be the last of others.
Lu Yuan did not divert from the topic, and straightforwardly broke up the grievances and grievances of Yuanzhen, Xie Xun and Mingjiao Yang Dingtian. This matter is not complicated in the first place, Yuan Zhen and Mrs. Yang are childhood sweethearts, and the Ming Sect leader Yang Ding Tianqiang married Mrs. Yang, and later died because he broke the adultery between Yuan Zhen and Mrs. Yang. Lady Yang committed suicide to be martyred. Yuan Zhen moved his anger to Mingjiao, and after knowing that Xie Xun, a disciple of Mingjiao, was one of the four great Dharma kings of Mingjiao, he designed to rape and kill Xie Xun's family after drinking, forcing Xie Xun to grudge the rivers and lakes, and causing trouble for Mingjiao.
During this period, Xie Xun's eyes were torn several times, but he endured it. Over the years, he dreamed back more than once in the middle of the night, and he couldn't believe that his teacher had done such a beastly thing. Now I finally have the opportunity to understand the cause and effect, even if I am angry in my heart, I must listen to it clearly!
When this is all said and done. Lu Yuan didn't stop talking about the second thing.
This time, it is about the death of the monk in the air at the hands of Xie Xun, and the various scenes that happened that night, the personal form and thoughts are vivid, as if they have seen it with their own eyes. Xie Xun was already ashamed to kill the monk in the sky, but now when he heard this young man talk about the events of the year, he remembered it vividly, and couldn't help but be shocked, and said in a lost voice, "You are a human or a ghost!" ”
Don't talk about Xie Xun about these things, even Peng Yingyu behind him was dumbfounded, I really don't know how Lu Ochre learned about these secrets of the rivers and lakes! If it is analyzed from the data, if others see the message stationery piled up in several rooms, most of them will believe it. Monk Peng, who can handle the news, of course, knows that it is absolutely impossible.
After the two of them digested the content, Lu Yuan talked about the last thing.
This time, it was the boiling news uploaded by the rivers and lakes - "The Secret of the Sword".
"You said that this knife is a book of war!" Lu Yuan's news was like a thunderbolt, smashing in the middle of Xie Xun's head. He was dizzy after the fight, and his expectation of revenge for several years came to naught, and it was impossible to even find someone to take revenge with a knife as a reward. It must be known that although the rivers and lakes are big, everyone yearns for the secret books of divine skills, and how many people can want military books!? For a while, I was heartbroken and wanted to die.
"I don't know, how can you prove what you say?" , After being silent for a long time, Xie Xun spoke again, his voice hoarse, as if he was seriously ill.
Peng Yingyu also looked at Lu Yuan. He still fueled the spread of this news, but it is really impossible to see whether it is true or false.
Lu Yuan stretched out his hand to untie the gray cloth package he had been carrying since he left Shaomu Mountain. Place the package on the ground and unravel it layer by layer, revealing a sword hidden in its sheath. The sword was unremarkable in appearance, the hilt was not inlaid with gold and jade, and the scabbard was an ordinary cork scabbard.
"The divine blades on the rivers and lakes are not only relying on the sky to slay the dragon." Lu Yuan gently grasped the hilt of the sword and drew his sword. The blade was dull, and there was no flickering cold light. But when it was pulled out silently, it was clearly an extremely sharp sword.
"This sword cuts the clouds, and it can slay the dragon!" The sword finger lightly struck on the blade of the sword, and the cloud slashing sword made a dragon-like sound. It was at the time of parting that the sweeping monk left him the sword "Cutting Clouds".
