In the early morning in the mountains and forests, small crystal clear dewdrops appeared on the green leaves. Like naughty children, these little drops of dew jump on pedestrians when they pass by, and play with their clothes or trouser legs.

White smoke billowed on Laojun Peak, like a fairyland. Because of the martial arts alliance held by the imperial court, in the mountains and forests that were peaceful in the past, there is a little more noise at this moment.

On the path between the mountains and forests, pedestrians constantly pass back and forth. These pedestrians are either Taoist priests, or yesterday, in the first test of foot strength, the one hundred and fifty knights.

On the path in the woods, a teenager is running naked and running through the path with heavy objects tied to his feet.

Behind the young man, there was also an old man, carrying a long sword, stepping on the grass and trees, his body was extremely light, walking in the jungle, constantly urging the young man to move faster.

The boy was already covered in sweat at this time, and a drop of sweat was like a drop of morning dew, attached to the boy's body.

"Hurry up, stinky boy, quicker! If you let yourself go now, the sword won't let you go in the future! ”

Hearing Li Changfeng's urging, Wu Kang clenched his teeth, endured the soreness coming from his body, and hurried forward with all his strength.

Half an hour later, Wu Kang finally collapsed on top of the mountain. Looking up at the green leaves above the sky. Quietly listening to the sound of the mountain wind whistling through the forest, a fallen leaf drifted down from the tree.

"Whew"

Wu Kang breathed a long sigh of relief, and after adjusting his breathing, the sunlight shone into the forest through the gaps in the leaves, forming a circle of light on the ground.

"Stinky boy? On weekdays, I told you not to be lazy when you practice, how about it, now you see the real chapter, right? ”

Li Changfeng took three or two steps up the mountain, sat on the branch and quipped to Wu Kang below.

"How can I be lazy on weekdays? It's really too steep, and the leggings are aggravated! Otherwise, I can still walk like a fly! ”

Wu Kang replied angrily.

"Okay, stinky boy, there are still three days, and the real martial arts alliance is about to begin! When the time comes, you have to behave well, these days will be cheaper for you, and you won't be allowed to run the mountain road again! When you go back, you can practice swordsmanship! ”

Listening to Li Changfeng's words, Wu Kang fell into deep thought, and the face of the old beggar appeared in front of him again.

"I will avenge you, I swear! Certain! Wu Kang clenched his fists.

..........

When the master and apprentice returned from the top of the mountain and arrived at the Taoist temple, it was already close to noon.

The cook sent by the imperial court had also cooked the meal, and the master and apprentice went to the room to find everyone, but unfortunately Sima Shu and others were also in the house, and Zhang Dan and Xiao Yan were also brought up the mountain. Of course, there is another person among them, which Wu Kang does not want to see.

Who is this man? That is Sima Luo, who was given by the emperor himself, and will soon marry Sima Mengqin!

Although the two are brothers, and after the incident, Sima Luo sent people to apologize several times, and finally Sima Shu was the guarantor, but the wife of a friend cannot be bullied.

Therefore, when the two looked at each other, the whole room suddenly fell silent, and the atmosphere was extremely awkward. In the end, it was Sima Luo who was a thief, first looked away, nodded with insufficient momentum, and called "Eighth Brother".

Wu Kang didn't answer much when he heard this, but just bowed his head slightly, and squeezed out a "um" word from his throat.

Zhang Yi saw that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, and hurriedly stepped forward to start a round.

"Now that we've all arrived, let's go and dine together! As soon as I went up the mountain, I smelled a wafting fragrance, and now I am really hungry! Let's go, let's go! ”

Zhang Yi said, and walked out the door. When the rest of the people saw this, they also echoed and walked out of the door.

"Wu Kang, let's go!"

"Hmm!"

Zhang Danshen came to the door and patted Wu Kang on the shoulder, Wu Kang nodded, glanced at Sima Luo, turned around and walked out of the door. Sima Luo, who was extremely ashamed, raised his eyes with a weak heart and looked at Wu Kang's back after hearing the voice. Sima Shu on the side pulled up his shirt and said, "Second brother, let's go!" Let's go to dinner first, I have already explained to the eighth brother, and then I will do it as agreed, don't think about it anymore! ”

Hearing this, Sima Luo squeezed out a smile and nodded yes.

…………

When everyone came to the dining place, the conditions on the top of the mountain were not as good as those under the mountain, and it was said to be the dining room, but in fact it was a large canopy that was temporarily erected to block some wind, rain and sunshine. Under the open canopy, there are 100 square tables, and on each side of the square table, a bench is placed.

When everyone arrived at the open top, many people were already sitting in the open hood. Although the place where the food is eaten is extremely simple, the food eaten is not the slightest chill. Big fish, big meat, you name it.

When several people stood outside the tent, the attention of the people eating inside the tent was attracted by the crowd outside the tent.

Before a few people were seated, Sima Shu had already been released, and someone in the crowd shouted: "The prince is here!"

As soon as he shouted like this, he bowed his head in the tent and concentrated on eating; Talkative; They were all suppressed by this shout, and they all raised their heads to look at the people. Before Sima Shu could react, everyone in the open could get up one after another, and a few of them had even stepped forward.

"You don't have to be like this, sit down and eat, this palace is here, just like you, just for dinner."

Seeing this, Sima Shu hurriedly beckoned everyone to sit down. Even so, everyone in the open top was still warm, and Sima Shu had no choice but to take the wine jar and bowl, and toast everyone with a glass before stopping.

After the toast, the group sat down at two tables placed in the corner. Unexpectedly, as soon as a few people sat down, an uninvited guest came!

"The National Teacher Nangong Yaoyang has arrived!"

I only heard a shout, which once again attracted everyone's attention. Everyone looked outside the tent, only to see Nangong Yaoyang, whose temples were white, followed by a group of guards, coming with tiger steps, and the battle was huge, which could be described as magnificent.

"The national teacher is here!"

"Nangong National Master is here!"

The people who were eating in the open canopy heard this shout, and all of them got up again as they had just done and stepped forward with a smile. Nangong Yaoyang was soon surrounded by a group of heroes, and the whole person was surrounded by water.

"Phew! It's unlucky! You can meet this old immortal with a meal! ”

When the enemies saw each other, they were very red-eyed. The people who had just sat down looked a little ugly when they saw Nangong Yaoyang walking into the tent with such fanfare.

Pei Xian spat directly on the ground and scolded. And Wu tightened his fists under the table, and looked at Nangong Yaoyang with red eyes.

Seeing this, Li Changfeng and Xu Daoling reached out and pressed their shoulders respectively, for fear that they would be angry for a while.

Of course, not everyone likes flattery. For example, the two tables of people sitting in the northwest corner and the southwest corner. The people at the two tables, from the beginning, when Sima Shu and the others walked into the tent, they were eating the food on the table with their heads bowed as usual.

At this time, Nangong Yaoyang came, and the people at the two tables were also the same as before, without any unexpected reaction, and they were still neither arrogant nor humble.

The people at these two tables were quite strange, one table was seven monks listening to the scars on their heads.

These seven monks, from the oldest to the youngest, the oldest looks like a weak crown, and the youngest is only thirteen or fourteen years old

At the other table, a middle-aged man and a young man with a weak crown sat down. I saw that the middle-aged man's temples were slightly white, draped in front of his shoulders, and he was carrying a long sword behind him.

The young man sitting next to him also carried a long sword, and looking at the appearance of the two, it was not difficult to guess that the two were in a master-apprentice relationship.

Zhang Yi noticed the two tables from the beginning, and also gave Sima Yu a look. After Sima Shu looked at it, he looked at Zhang Yi and nodded slightly.

"Let's let, let's let's go, the national teacher is going to go upstairs to eat!"

In just a moment, the guards beside Nangong Yaoyang began to push away the people who came forward, standing in front of Nangong Yaoyang to open the way.

"Everyone will see you in the ring the day after tomorrow, and the old man is going to eat, so he will leave first! I hope you will forgive me! ”

The pomp and circumstance were enough, and the decent words were said, Nangong Yaoyang took the four murderers behind him, and without looking back, he walked straight towards the two-story building not far away.

"Whew! The eighth king of a thousand years, the return of ten thousand years! This old immortal is about to return to heaven!

It's still alive and beautiful! We shouldn't have come to this tent, we should have asked the Taoist to prepare a big attic for us! is more imposing than this old immortal, angry with this old immortal! ”

Pei Xian looked at Nangong Yaoyang's flying and domineering appearance, and he was really angry in his heart, spitting and scolding at the same time. I can't wait to use my eyes to devour Nangong Yaoyang and the others alive.

When Sima Shu heard this, he stretched out his hand and patted the emotional Pei Xiandao: "Fifth brother, if we act like this, we will do extravagant things in the name of prestige; Do a good job with your identity! So how are we different from him? ”

"No, third brother, I just can't swallow this breath!"

"Fifth brother! Hongu can understand your feelings, but Hongu will never do that. Look at the heroes of the two tables, whether we are here or he Nangong Yaoyang is coming, they all seem to be unsurprised.

What is heroism? That is to do something with a heart of inaction!

Some people, even if they don't make some earth-shattering achievements, but they can follow their hearts, treat people sincerely, and treat them equally, they can be called real heroes!

But some people, even if they do something big enough to shock the world, they don't treat people with courtesy, but feel that they are superior to others everywhere, and they oppress people when they encounter problems, and they look at people by making friends. Such a person, no matter what, will not be able to convince the public!

There are people in the world who are afraid of virtue but not of virtue, but there are also people who are afraid of virtue but not of virtue! I not only hope that you can understand this truth, but also that you can understand it. ”

Everyone listened to Sima Shu's words and nodded their heads to be taught. And Li Changfeng and several other older seniors also felt that what Sima Shu said was reasonable, and nodded heartily.
