Chapter Twenty-Nine: Night Attack
The monk took me to the wing room on the east side of the second hall.
I lay on the bed tossing and turning, thinking about what Zheng Kuan had said.
Thinking of the rudder in Kaifeng, the beggar gang, that glass of wine was obviously different, but Sakura Ling persuaded me to drink it. Even more upset.
I remembered that Master Huiyun once asked me that Miss Sakura betrayed you in the future and wanted to kill you, and you don't regret it?
Could it be that Master Huiyun also saw that there was something wrong with Sakura Ling?
The chess game of Huiqing and Huixing, on behalf of my "general", will be eaten by the "pawn" representing Sakura Ling. Did the two uncles, Hui Qing and Hui Xing, hint that I would be killed by Sakura Ling?
Late at night, I still couldn't sleep. Thinking about the time spent with Sakura, there have been laughter, sweetness, and longing, and I feel very uncomfortable.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise from the roof, and it was very soft.
It's Sakura. I thought to myself. She must have come to the White Horse Temple to see that I would not return, worried that I would be poisoned by the monks of the White Horse Temple. Thinking of this, my heart warmed.
I was afraid that she wouldn't find me and wandered around, so I woke up the others, gently pushed open the window, and climbed out. I tiptoed away and looked towards the roof.
By the moonlight, I could vaguely see a black figure lying on the roof of the wing house on the north side, motionless.
She probably didn't know I was in that room, listening to voices.
I jumped lightly and fell to the side of the black shadow, gradually getting closer to the black shadow, only to realize that the black shadow was tall, not a cherry spirit.
The shadow heard the rustling of my clothes in the air as the wind blew, and one of them stood up and drew his sword and stabbed at me. I poked my back with my right hand, remembering that I didn't bring a handsome, so I quickly looked at the head of the sword, and with a flick of the middle finger of my left hand, the person flew to a high place again. At this moment, the sword in the black shadow's hand broke with a "dang". Many rooms in the White Horse Temple were lit up, and someone in the wing room at the bottom of the foot shouted: Who!
The man jumped again, and after landing on the ground, he jumped up again and reached the roof of the second hall.
After I fell, I chopped my foot directly and floated towards the second hall. Suddenly I thought it was bad, and sure enough, the wing room in the back collapsed with a "boom". Fortunately, before the collapse, the people in the house had already run outside the house and were looking up at the roof.
Turning his head to look at the roof of the second hall, there was one more person, who was fighting with the black shadow, and when he looked at his figure, he knew that it was the master of the second hall. At this time, the certificate changed the sword technique, the sword body was light, and one sword was faster than the other. But I saw that although the black shadow had no weapons, his fist was both defensive and offensive, and he did not fall behind at all.
When I was about to fall to the roof, the black shadow did not dare to fight, and rushed towards the main hall with a "whoosh".
As soon as I landed, Master Witness recognized me and said that you should chase after me, I have to stay here.
I just wanted to jump towards the main hall, but the testimony said to chase down, and the roof can't withstand your kick.
I hurriedly jumped down and ran towards the main hall.
I saw a black shadow leap onto the roof of the main hall. I jumped along.
The black shadow turned his head to see me chasing after me, and was about to jump off the main hall, when suddenly the tiles flew wildly, and a bronze bell knocked out of the roof from the feet of the black shadow, and the black shadow jumped upward, head and foot, and slapped a palm on the top of the bronze bell. The bronze bell shattered suddenly, and shards flew everywhere.
Two shards shot at me, and I flicked my middle finger, and the shards shot towards the black shadow with the sound of the wind.
The black shadow had just landed next to the hole in the roof at this time, and I saw that the debris was going very fast, so I didn't dare to catch it with my hands, and my body flashed, avoiding the debris, and at this time, I just stepped on the roof. The shadow jumped again and slipped through the hole in the roof. I didn't have time to think about it, and jumped into the hole. But I saw that it was Ci Mei under the cave, and Ci Mei held up with both palms, and the black shadow flipped in the air, avoiding the power of Ci Mei's palms, and then slapped his palms at me. I hurriedly rolled forward, and it turned into a head and feet, and I met it with both fists. Suddenly, he felt that the opponent's palm power was extremely strong, and his momentum was like an overwhelming mountain. I woke up suddenly, it turned out that the black shadow used his palm to push the palm of Ci Mei to me, the palm power of the two people came together, I didn't dare to underestimate it, the spirit was shocked, so that ten percent of the internal force, the fist and the two palm forces collided, the body couldn't help but stop in the air, I took the opportunity to roll over two circles and fell to the ground. The black shadow was already on the side.
Under the candlelight, I saw a black shadow dressed in a night robe and masked. The masked man smiled "hehe" and said to Cimei: It's like a god's palm!
Then he turned to me and said, "Good Dharma Vajra Fist!"
Ci Mei sat on the futon, and said: Amitabha, why did the Taoist disciples come to the White Horse Temple?
I thought the masked man's voice was so familiar that I couldn't remember where I had heard it for a while.
The masked man said, even if you come secretly, how can you tell you what you are here for? As soon as he finished speaking, he smashed through the door and ran out, and his body was extremely fast. I shook my body and followed.
Although the masked man is good, he is still inferior to me. Within five miles I caught up, and I slapped him in the back, and he flashed to the side, but stopped. I stopped too.
The masked man suddenly spoke, Zhishan, do you have to kill your old friend to be willing? After speaking, he opened his mask.
It's you. I said in surprise.
It turned out that the masked man was Zhang Daoming of the Heavenly Master Sect. The man who killed my uncle that day broke his Xuanyuan sword.
Zhang Daoming said with a smile, I didn't expect you to be so good at light skills, and your internal skills are also amazing. Neither I nor Cimei's palm power hurt you.
I asked, why did you come to White Horse Temple?
Zhang Daoming said I was also about to ask you.
I told you why I went to Hakubaji Temple.
Zhang Daoming said that the murderer must have no one else, and it must be a strict testimony. They are afraid that you will take revenge, so they made up a bunch of nonsense, and it is not impossible for your uncle to go to the White Horse Temple to burn incense. How do you know that he didn't come out to wander the rivers and lakes when he was young? Passing by the White Horse Temple, he never went to burn incense and worship the Buddha? You are from Shenqiu and Shaolin, don't you also come to the White Horse Temple?
As soon as he said it, I felt that there was some truth. I said that the abbot of Zhengkuan said that Zhengyan used a bladeless copper-colored blunt sword.
Zhang Daoming sneered, what if Zheng Kuan lies? Think about it, Shaolin has three famous swords, and the White Horse Temple, which is as famous as Shaolin, does not have a famous sword? My Taoist sect has many sects, and you saw it last time.
I said that Zheng Kuan had given me a book about the Purple Sword, and that I could get some clues from this book.
Zhang Daoming said you show it to me, so I took out the book from my arms and handed it to Zhang Daoming.
Zhang Daoming flipped through it and said, "Where is there any record of the purple sword? It's just a sword book written in seal script. See for yourself.
I took the book and looked at it, and sure enough, it was all seal script, and I couldn't read a word.
I put the book away and asked why you came to White Horse Temple today.
Zhang Daoming frowned and said, the prince was sick, and the imperial doctor was helpless. I suspect that it was Zheng Yan who took advantage of the absence of the prince and gave the prince a chronic poison when he was out of Beijing last time. I came this time to try my luck, whether I could find the antidote in the White Horse Temple, I didn't expect to meet you.
I'm right, last time you asked me why you took the Xuanyuan Sword to the sword competition, but then I didn't say it.
Zhang Daoming patted me on the shoulder and said that the purpose of bringing the Xuanyuan Sword is to break your handsomeness.
I said, aren't you Taoists competing with swords?
Zhang Daoming said, of course not. We're just waiting over there for you to take the bait. Unexpectedly, in the end, stealing chickens could not become a counter-erosion, and the famous sword of Taoism was broken a lot.
I said, how do you know I'm going to that inn?
Zhang Daoming said, think about who brought you over?
I thought it was Sakura, and my heart sank.
Zhang Daoming continued, I don't approve of this, since it is a competition, it should be a fair participation. To make these insidious methods, I am afraid that Sanqing will know in the sky, and he will be so angry that he will vomit blood. When Taixu was kind to me, he opened his mouth to me, although I didn't want to, but it was difficult to refuse. Zhishan, don't blame me.
I shook my head and said with a wry smile Why are you telling me this.
Zhang Daoming said that when I first saw you, I felt that you were honest, and I was just being honest. I didn't get the antidote this time, and I alarmed the White Horse Temple again, so I'm afraid I won't be able to get it next time.
Zhang Daoming saw that I was silent, and patted me on the shoulder again, saying that there are many good daughters in the world, so there is no need to be sad for Miss Sakura. I'll go back to Beijing, be careful yourself. We will sometimes reunite in the future. Leave.
After speaking, Zhang Daoming clenched his fists and disappeared into the night.
When I returned to the White Horse Temple, Zheng Kuan was waiting for me in the main hall, but Cimei didn't know where to go.
Did you catch that person?
I shook my head and said I lost the chase. The man was very good.
Zheng Kuan said forget it, Master Cimei said that the person was taught by the Heavenly Master, and he used the Tiangang Palm when you fought just now. I assisted the four princes in the White Horse Temple, and the Heavenly Master assisted the prince, and I have been resentful for a long time. I'll make good arrangements, and next time he breaks in, he won't be able to fly.
Sleepless nights.
In the morning, I hurriedly bid farewell to Zhengkuan and returned to General Wang's mansion.
Sakura Ling was very happy to see me coming back, and asked how the investigation went.
I shook my head, went into the house to clean up, and said to General Wang, who had come back after hearing the noise, that I had to go to the capital once.
General Wang repeatedly retained, and when he saw that I insisted on leaving, he had to say goodbye.
Walking out of Luoyang City, Sakura Ling followed unhurriedly.
I turned my head and said that I would go to the capital, and you should go back to Wudang Mountain.
Sakura Ling said, what's wrong with you? It's strange to see you coming back from the White Horse Temple. Don't look at me, don't pay much attention to me. Now you want to separate from me again, what's wrong with you?
I said, what's wrong with me?
After speaking, without waiting for her to reply, he ran forward with his feet. She chased and shouted behind her, you wait a minute...... But the voice became smaller and smaller, and in the blink of an eye, the cherry spirit was thrown away without a shadow.
After running for half an hour, I couldn't help but walk slowly, turning my head to look behind me again and again. I walked like this for another half an hour, but I still didn't see Sakura's figure.
Passing by a tavern, I walked in and ordered a large pot of rabbit meat and a pot of wine.
While eating, Sakura came in and sat down across from me.
Sakura Ling shouted, Xiao Er, come to a pot of fish.
I should not have seen her, but eaten my own.
Ying Ling said, do you think that I was deliberately arranged by Wudang to be by your side? I have been trying to find a way to kill you these days?
I snorted and didn't talk.
Sakura Ling said, Brother Zhishan, you are so confused, if I want you to die, why don't I stab you to death with a sword when you fall asleep at night?
I said you don't have the skills to do that.
Sakura Ling said, okay, even if you can feel it in advance, then I'll poison the dry food I bring with me, right?
I said that I can find the poisonous wine of the beggar gang, but I can't find the poisonous cake you brought?
Sakura Ling hurriedly said, I swear, I don't have the intention of harming you, if I harm your heart, let me fall into the cliff and die!
