The young hunter in the mountains is very good. The road is narrow, and it is not allowed to pass.

The king flicked his sword and sang, saying, 'The sword is the sword, and the Wu people are evil.' If a man is evil, why should he be polite!'

Chapter I

"At the beginning, the king of Chu fought with a sword in Shu, and Ba and Shu had no one to compete with. Out of the Three Gorges, into Wu. ”

A white-haired rickety old man on the mountain path looked at the snow trees and rime on the mountain and said slowly.

Next to it is an abyss, only the mist is seen, and the bottom is invisible. The slightest accidental fall is a broken bone.

Behind him was a procession of hundreds of people, scurrying like a long snake on the narrow mountain path.

On the ninth day of the lunar month, the snow is quiet and the sky is clear.

The heavy snow covered the mountain, the cold was bone-chilling, and it was originally not suitable to travel, but today, the master, who had not been out of the house for a long time, suddenly called all the more than 300 disciples of the upper and lower sects to come up the mountain to "enjoy the snow".

All the disciples knew that the master must have given instructions, and when he opened his mouth, they all stopped and listened quietly. - Listen to the first sentence of the master, it is like ......

Want to tell stories to your apprentices?

On the edge of the cliff, snow foams from the branches of the trees fell into the abyss.

"But it is said that the king of Chu went out of the Three Gorges that day, crossed Jingxiang, came to Wudi, and met a young man hunting on the mountain......" The old man's voice echoed in the valley.

......

The "Cloud Suppression Sect" is divided into room disciples, inner courts, and outer courtyards from the master level down, and the rules are strict. The dozen or so disciples who were close to the master were dressed in gorgeous clothes, and some of them wore fox furs on their shoulders—all of them were disciples who entered the house; disciples who were farther away were slightly inferior to those of the inner court; and even farther away were the outer court disciples whose clothes were disorderly—even the outer court disciples, most of them were also plump. In today's world, those who can afford to learn from teachers are naturally not bad.

However, among the disciples in the inner courtyard, there was a young man who was wrapped in layers of clothes on his body, and his shabby winter clothes were covered with sloppy summer clothes, which were fat and looked like a ball.

The children of the sect are not like them, but the beggars are very similar.

In fact, he was not obese, his face was emaciated, and he had several plasters on his face. Because of the injury.

This honor is not as good as that of the disciples of the outer court. But the strange thing is that after wearing so much, he is still shivering from the cold air of the ice and snow.

For half a month, the triennial sect competition was underway, and he had lost nine games in a row, and he was already invincible, and he became the laughing stock of the disciples in the inner courtyard. There are more than 100 people in the inner court, and he is now ranked ninety-nine—if he loses one more game, he will definitely fall out of a hundred. According to the convention, the sect is more than 100 disciples of the inner court who are outside the outer court to be demoted to the outer court.

said that it was an outer courtyard, but in fact, it was almost the same as a miscellaneous servant.

Unfortunately, his last opponent was Senior Brother Wu Renjie, who is currently ranked second in the inner court, and it was a fool's dream to defeat him.

To the outer courtyard?

What's the difference between that and being expelled from the sect......

These days, everyone around him has noticed that he has been in a trance, as if he has lost his soul.

Beside him, Fang Shu, who was also a disciple of the inner court, muttered to himself, "Oh...... It turned out that Shizun was talking about the allusion on the "National History Tongjian: The Family of the King of Chu"...... "The story Fang Shu had seen it before, he thought about the intention of the master, and casually glanced at his companions side by side, a little surprised, and said softly: "Wang Yuan! Wang Yuan! you...... Are you alright?"

I saw that Wang Yuan's face was white, red, and blue, and his body was trembling, obviously because he was not lightly frozen.

Originally, he also laughed at Wang Yuan for wearing too much today - a disciple of the sect, smelting the soul and forging the soul, strengthening the muscles and bones, even if he didn't wear clothes, he was not afraid of the cold.

He's ......

After thinking about it, Fang Shu understood that Wang Yuan had been defeated in the school field many times recently, and it was inevitable that all kinds of sword wounds would flow incessantly.

A person who has lost a lot of blood is naturally afraid of the cold, even if he has wrapped himself up like this.

Fang Shu was friends with him, and he didn't think he was dressed funny, but he was very sad, sighed, untied his coat, and put it on him.

Seeing this, the senior brothers next to him all smiled and said, "This is good-Wang Yuan is really a round ball." ”

Wang Yuan ignored his senior brother's ridicule and glanced at Fang Shu gratefully, but his body still couldn't help but tremble.

Fang Shu said gently: "Are you still worried about the competition with Senior Brother Wu tomorrow, don't worry, the boat will naturally ...... straight when it reaches the bridge" Having said this, even he felt that the realm of Wang Yuan and Senior Brother Wu Renjie was a world apart.

Wang Yuan smiled reluctantly, Fang Shu's family was well-off, and he wouldn't know how difficult it was for him to study. Glancing at the unreachable master, he asked in a weak voice, "Master...... What did the master say? That day, Senior Brother Zhang Cheng slapped his ear with a sword, and it hurt very much, I ...... My left ear has been buzzing all the time, and I can't hear it very clearly. ”

"Senior Brother Zhang Cheng—— you still call him 'Senior Brother'! Zhang Cheng is ruthless, he is not a good person!" Fang Shu said angrily, his heart was sour, and he explained calmly: "As for the master, he is talking about the deeds of the King of Chu when he was young......

"King Chu?"

"That is, the 'righteous emperor' of 'a sword rampant in Bashu'. ”

"Oh, it's him!" Wang Yuan suddenly said. There are many people who have been named the king of Chu in history, but none of them are as famous as this one - especially the deeds of his invincibility in Bashu with a long sword when he was young have been passed down for thousands of years. He was an immortal powerhouse, and he made immortal contributions to the imperial dynasty's annexation of the world, but he was defeated by the "Qingyi" God Emperor in the process of fighting for the throne, and was finally named the "King of Chu". Later generations of God Emperors felt that he was kind to the country, and posthumously called the "Righteous Emperor", and the temple name was "Chengzong". (Among the people, this Chu king also has a more widespread name called 'Emperor Lilu.') )

Fang Shu knew that Wang Yuan had not read a book, and he obviously couldn't fully understand the allusions that Shizun said, so while looking at Shizun, he explained to Wang Yuan in his own words: "What the master said is that when the King of Chu was young, the way of the sword was the first in Sichuan and Shu, and he felt that there was no opponent, so he came to Wudi, and as a result, he got into a fight with a hunter on the mountain road, arguing over who should give way......"

......

"The hunter said, don't look at you with a sword, you are tall and big, but you are very weak! If you are really proficient in swordsmanship, and you are not afraid of death, you can kill me with a sword, you go, if you dare not kill me, you will get under my crotch......"

The old man shook his head and finished reading this paragraph, opened his eyes, and looked at the disciple beside him, although his energy has been low in the past few years, but now there are many people in the door, he still has a sense of achievement, and suddenly asked: "I ask, if it is you, what should you do if you fight with others?"

"What kind of birdman, dare to be presumptuous! Without saying a word, he will be killed with a sword!" A disciple preemptively said.

The old man snorted coldly, quite displeased.

Another disciple said: "It's not necessary to kill him, but he has shallow knowledge, so he still needs to be punished slightly......

Another disciple rushed and said: "It's me, I won't let him go, spend three days and three nights with him, see who can consume whom!"

The old man couldn't help but laugh and was noncommittal.

Some disciples observed the words and felt that the master wanted to educate them, the truth of "hard and easy to break", and said tentatively: "Master, the disciples and the senior brothers think differently, this person is just a mountain horseman, why should he compete with him......? It's not unavoidable...... "One of the brothers couldn't help but start snickering.

But Shizun still didn't mean to agree, and couldn't help but be a little disappointed. And what he just said, he expressed that he didn't care much about the "humiliation of the crotch", he seemed too weak and shameless, and he couldn't help blushing a little.

"Master, may I ask what the Emperor of Righteousness did?" the disciples asked.

The old man smiled lightly: "The king of Chu played the long sword and sang: Sword, sword, the people of Wu Di are disgusted to see you! Since the people of Wu Di don't like you like you like this, why do you follow me to Wu Di as a guest?"

King Chu immediately threw the long sword into the abyss, and said to the young man with a smile, I don't have a sword now, but an ordinary person with empty hands. The young hunter scoffed, thinking that he was afraid of him, and let him go. After the king of Chu arrived in Wudi, it took three months to defeat all the masters in Wudi......"

All the disciples exclaimed, "Ah, the Righteous Emperor actually threw his long sword under the abyss!"

"Since he threw his sword down, he is not a swordsman, and the hunter has no reason to make it difficult for him anymore......"

"Emperor Chengzong's long sword is naturally tempered thousands of times, and the 'soldier' is a powerful divine weapon—— he is willing to throw it away!

"It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous, when the mountain village man saw that the king of Chu threw away the sword, he thought he was afraid of himself -- but the king of Chu took his head, I am afraid that it is easier than crushing an ant! With the realm of the king of Chu, without a divine soldier, he still ran rampant in the fourteen states of Jiangzuo......"

"So it doesn't matter if you throw it away or not...... But why am I so distressed......"

The disciples were talking.

Fang Shu had read this story a long time ago, so he was not surprised. Wang Yuan was stunned and thoughtful.

The old man smiled faintly: "Why are you talking about the long sword? Why was Emperor Chengzong able to annex the Eight Desolations with the Qingyi Divine Emperor and create the foundation of the dynasty's immortality for 10,000 years? Swordsmanship is important, and the sword of the divine soldier is important, but more important is his spirit that is different from that of a mediocre person!

All the disciples stood solemnly together and said in unison: "The master has good intentions, and the disciples have been taught!" The master took them up the mountain with illness, originally to open up their minds.

At this time, the old man coughed and said, "Talking to you about this paragraph, on the one hand, it is to enlighten Dier and others, and on the other hand, ......" He paused, "It is said that back then, Emperor Chengzong passed through when he entered Wu, and the place where the King of Chu threw down his long sword was——"

And Wang Yuan, who originally had a gloomy face, heard this, raised his head suddenly and looked at Shizun-

The old man said slowly: "What you see now, this place, the depth, the abyss!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked! Unbelievable!

"What?"

"Where the King of Chu threw his sword...... This is where we are?"

Everyone looked under the misty cliffs.

"Master, what you said is true?"

"Master, is this really the place where the 'Emperor of the Fence' threw down the divine sword?"

Seeing that the disciples were all eager, the old man couldn't help laughing: "This was all a thousand years ago, whether it is true or not, who can tell?"

The disciples were very disappointed.

But the old man said: "But it can't be said that there is no basis at all...... I heard your ancestor say this when I was young, he was familiar with the history of the Twelve Dynasties since he was a child, and he was especially good at researching evidence, according to his research, it was here. The master is a human being, the most rigorous, and will not talk nonsense. ”

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has a heart. Wang Yuan moved his lips and looked at Fang Shu again: "You say...... The long sword used by the king of Chu...... Could it be a peerless weapon?"

Fang Shu thought for a moment and said: "As the saying goes, 'people have souls, soldiers have spirits', good weapons are all soulful, like people, they have spirituality-since it is used by the King of Chu, how can it not be a good sword? The King of Chu's swordsmanship is superb, and ordinary weapons are naturally not worthy of him...... How many strong people in Shu were defeated by this sword - and after the king of Chu entered Wu, he never used a sword in his life, I am afraid that it is ......"

Wang Yuan's breathing intensified, and his eyes burned: "I'm afraid that I can't find such a peerless sword again, right?" Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh faintly: "If so, if I have such a good sword, how good it would be...... The inner courtyard is ...... than "Wang Yuan was instantly gloomy, obviously remembering the various fiascos in the past few days.

Alas, if it weren't for today's truce due to heavy snow, I am afraid that I would have been defeated again today - I would have no face to stand on the sect!

At that time, how should the old father and mother who have worked hard at home to provide him with apprenticeship?

My heart was so painful that I couldn't hold back my tears.

The senior brothers next to him didn't think about this, whether Wang Yuan would be driven out of the sect or not, it had nothing to do with them: "Senior Brother Zhang, you said, Emperor Chengzong's divine soldiers...... Is there or isn't it down there?"

"You ask me, who am I asking?" Zhang Cheng glared at the questioner angrily: "Is there any, you can jump down and see!"

"yes, you can jump down and see!" the crowd echoed, laughing.

Wang Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up!

yes, is there a magic soldier down there, don't you jump down and see?

"Let me jump, why don't you jump......"

"You jump first, and we'll jump with you......"

They all got good results in several big competitions, and their tone was very relaxed and happy, joking with each other.

No one noticed Wang Yuan, who was moving slowly.

He trembled to the edge of the cliff, looking at the ethereal abyss, and gritted his teeth!

Take a leap!

The thin and thin body flashes away in front of the abyss!

Fang Shu just didn't pay attention to him for a moment, this glance, he was stunned, stretched out his hand and shouted, "Wang Yuan-"

Everyone was stunned at first, and it took a while to come back to their senses!

"Ahh

"Oh my God!"

"Master! It's not good! Someone jumped off the cliff!"

The old man was stunned for a moment, his brows furrowed, and he walked over quickly with the support of his disciples, shouting, "Who?

Fang Shu stood in a daze where Wang Yuan jumped. Just now, he was standing beside him with a good and fat ball......!

Thousands of feet high, jumping down is never half a point of survival.

Fang Shu's eyes were already full of tears, and when he came back to his senses, he couldn't help but cry loudly: "Master, Master, it's Wang Yuan!

Everyone flocked to the edge of the cliff, only to see the white expanse below, where can you still see half a figure?

Among the mountain trails, only the sound of the wind blowing and the snow reverberates.

(Since the pig's foot jumped off the cliff and died in the first chapter, the whole book ends...... Well, just kidding. )

PS: February 2nd, the dragon raised its head! Changqing also opened a new book in the second year! At this time, I also want to have a good fortune! I hope to continue to get everyone's support! I ask you to add new books to the bookshelf, and don't be stingy if you have recommended votes!

The passage of "meeting on a narrow road" in this chapter is actually born from the section in "The Biography of the Marquis of Huaiyin" and "Tianlong Babu" where the Qiao gang leader said that the storm was evil and the dung farmers fought in the apricot forest......
