Chapter 142: Seeking Treatment, Unknown Old Man (2)

The king shouted to the lake and the stern, "Jiang Bo, take out the food!"

"Yes!"

The river waves echoed in the stern.

When Jiang Bo took out the rice, Wang Xianghu asked again: "Leopard Xiaoxia and Zhongli Hall Master don't have anything to eat?"

Jiang Bo said, "Master, when they were eating, the second brother was taking care of them. ”

Cuicui said, "I'll go in and have a look." ”

Qingqing took her hand and said, "Brother Leopard is lucky now. Don't bother him, don't you want to eat, aren't you hungry?"

Cuicui just sat down to eat with everyone.

During the meal, Shang Liang asked Elder Mo, "Brother, where did you get these two bottles of wine?"

"Isn't it close to Babe?"

Wang Xianghu marched: "Beibei, it's about forty or fifty miles from here to there." ”

"Isn't it around here?"

Shang Liang, Qingqing, and Cuicui didn't hear anything, but Wang Xianghu, Hou Fang, and the Jiang family brothers didn't hear anything, but they were surprised, forty or fifty miles back and forth, and through the mountains and rivers through the forest, Elder Mo went back and forth for a while, not flying?

Qingqing asked: "Old name, where did you buy these two bottles of wine?"

Cuicui said, "Do you still need to ask? ”

Elder Mo shouted, "How did you ruin my reputation as a beggar? Did I steal?"

"It's not stealing, it's an open robbery. ”

"Isn't that more sinful? Do you want me to sleep all day?"

Qingqing smiled and asked, "How did you get the silver?"

"Have you ever heard of a beggar who can buy wine with money?"

"And how did you get it?"

"Yes, of course. ”

Cuicui smiled: "Then this person is not crazy, he must be an idiot to let you take these two glasses of good wine." ”

"What do you know? There was a rich old man who had a big wedding in Beibei today, and he put dozens of jars of this wine to entertain. Wouldn't it be easy for me to ask him for two jars of wine?"

"Okay, we'll go to the old money house in a while. ”

Wang Xianghu, Shang Liang, Hou Fang and the others are people who understand and understand Elder Mo, and everyone knows that Elder Mo steals wine, which is almost as easy as digging into a bag.

Shang Liang said, "No matter how Elder Mo gets it, come on, let's have another bowl." ”

Cuicui asked, "Dad, how many bowls of wine have you drunk today?"

Shang Liang deliberately pretended to be stupid and asked everyone, "How many bowls of wine did we drink? It looks like we just started drinking, didn't we?"

Everyone laughed: "Yes, we were just drinking!"

Cuicui still wanted to say, but Qingqing pulled her and said, "Forget it, don't you ask for anything? Let Dad drink more today!"

Shang Liang smiled: "It's better to be Qing'er!"

Cuicui raised her head and asked, "So I'm broken?"

"You too!"

Shang Liang winked at them, and they couldn't help but laugh.

Qingqing: "Cuicui, don't say it!" The more you talk, the more confused you become. Let's hurry up and finish our meal and go to see Brother Leopard and Zhong Gong go. ”

Cuicui also smiled and said: "Yes, how could I be so stupid? An old man called Hua, a father, and what Uncle Wang and Uncle Hou, they are all in the same group, let's go! Let's go to the back." ”

There was another burst of laughter behind them.

"The two little ones are gone," said Elder Mo, "so we can have a drink." Come on, I'll ask Hua to eat three bowls first. ”

Shang Liang said: "Lao Zhaohua, I want to ask you a question. ”

"What's the problem?"

"You've traveled the country and know that there are a lot of strange people and strangers. Have you ever seen a master of swordsmanship? He lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and did not often walk around rivers and lakes. ”

"Yes, yes!

"Who?"

"Murong Xiaoyan, this girl. ”

"She?"

"Hasn't she recently lived in seclusion among the bamboo bushes of Mengying Mountain?"

"Old man, don't joke with me. Does she still need me to ask? I asked someone else. ”

"Well, that's Zhan Taiwu and Black Arrow. ”

"Did he ever live in seclusion?"

"Hey, you ask the person who wields the sword, is he a member of the Nine Sects?"

"Of course not. ”

Elder Mo couldn't help but think: "Are the sword masters all the time living in seclusion in the mountains and forests? The Gongsun family in Jiangnan, the Xiahou family in Saibei, and the Gan family in Huguang are all swordsmanship masters, but they are not secluded in the mountains and forests! Who else is an excellent swordsman in Xuanling?"

Wang Xianghu asked, "Could it be that the husband of the Jade Rakshasa didn't meet a hero?" He killed Shangling on the top of the Emei Golden Top, and the two of them lived in seclusion on the Shennongjia. ”

Shang Liang said, "It's not him. ”

Elder Mo looked at Shang Liang and asked, "Have you seen this person?"

"Yes, but I don't know his name. ”

"What about this man?"

"White hair, sharp eyes, kind face, soft, flexible and powerful hands, and even the figure, almost as soft as a leopard. ”

Wang Xianghu asked, "Where is this person now?"

"I beg your pardon, but I can't tell you about his hermitage. ”

Elder Mo suddenly patted his leg: "I always called Hua to know!"

The crowd hurriedly asked, "Who?"

"Only he is suitable for the situation you are talking about. He fought with Murong Xiaoyan for nearly 200 rounds before losing. ”

Shang Liang said: "It's always called Hua, can you say it quickly?"

"The number one killer in the Fog Building, Thousand Illusion Sword!"

As soon as Elder Mo finished speaking, everyone was stunned!

The Fog Tower is the first mysterious killer group among all the Xuan Spirits, all the killers in the Fog Building, all the swordsmen are the first-class swordsmen in the martial arts, and among all the killers, the strange swordsmen are the most terrifying?

He never killed anyone.

The Thousand Illusion Swordsman is indeed as famous as his people.

The swordsman's martial arts are ever-changing, and they are superb.

As far as swordsmanship is concerned, he is not defeated by black arrows, but by black arrows.

Ever since he fought more than one hundred and eighty rounds in the Jade Pyramid Erwang Temple and was defeated by Murong Xiaoyan's sword, he had disappeared and never seen him again.

Later, Gongsun Liang was killed in Qingcheng Mountain, Wufu, and the entire Wufu also collapsed and scattered.

This terrifying and mysterious murderous gang has been around for almost 100 years.

Its appearance and disappearance are equally mysterious.

Since then, there are no more killers in the fog tower in the rivers and lakes.

So Shang Liang, Wang Xianghu, and Hou Fang, these old people, when they heard Elder Mo talk about the Fog Tower, they all turned colored.

For a long time, Shang Liang just asked, "Is it the Thousand Illusion Sword?"

"If it weren't for him, I can't think of any other famous swordsman. ”

Shang Liang thought to himself: The nameless old man is a Thousand Illusion Swordsman? If it is true, then are we not afraid? Shouldn't we go to the doctor and run to this cold-blooded killer to heal, wouldn't that break into the mouth of the tiger?

"As a Xuanling killer, it can be said that he has a cold face and a cold heart, and he has absolutely no relatives and friends. Their purpose is to recognize money but not people, why isn't it terrifying? But Thousand Illusion Sword, in the eyes of Murong Xiaoyan, is a trustworthy and honest person. He is not a cunning hypocrite. I met him in Shennongjia more than ten years ago. He is no longer a killer, but a hermit. ”

Wang Xianghu asked, "Elder Mo, has he never been at odds with you?"

Elder Mo said, "When he was a killer, he didn't fight people for no reason, but he killed people in the chaos for no reason. He wasn't a killer at the time, and he wouldn't fight people for no reason, so why did he fight me!"

Shang Liang was relieved when he heard this, and thought to himself: Even if that nameless old man was really a Thousand Illusion Sword, he promised to heal the Leopard Brother and Zhongli Hall Master from the Lord, and he would not plot to kill them.

Not to mention whether the nameless old man was a thousand phantom swords, it was still uncertain.

However, from the mystical seclusion, the copper coin as a joint method, seems to be the mystical style of the occult spirit killer.

When Elder Mo saw him meditating, he asked, "Brother Shang, where have you seen him?"

Shang Liang didn't want more people to know about this, so he said, "I happened to see him once, too." I think he's different from your average hermit. He was extremely skilled and clearly a good swordsman. Come on, let's drink!"

After drinking and eating, Elder Mo stood up and said, "Everyone, I ask to go to another place to beg, don't accompany me!"

Shang Liang was stunned: "Old Zhaohua, how do you go?"

"I'm not going, will you raise me for the rest of my life?"

"I asked myself, can I afford it. ”

"Come on, I've been screaming but I'm afraid to see you, that Guanyin Bodhisattva and the two Guanyin soldiers?"

"Elder Mo, you're not going to come and have a drink with us and leave, are you?"

"You say, why did I run away with my name?"

"I don't know. You're that Guanyin, she'll figure out why I'm screaming and running, you go and ask her. ”

Qingqing and Cuicui ran out of the back cabin and said, "Old Zhaohua, don't leave yet, we have something to ask you." ”

"What do you call me?"

Cuicui asked, "How is our purple-clothed sister now?"

"I don't know!"

Qingqing said, "Didn't you protect her all the way to Kunming? Why don't you know?"

"She's good at martial arts. Does she need my protection? She's very protective of me. ”

"Old Scream, don't make trouble hahaha, what's wrong with Sister Ziyi now?"

"Maybe she's gone back to Fanjing Mountain now!"

Qingqing asked, "Aren't you in the same place as her?"

"Ah! she found what she was looking for and didn't care about my old wine and rice anymore! I had no choice but to beg for food again. ”

Cuicui asked, "Who is Sister Ziyi looking for?"

"Dr. Yu, Divine Doctor. ”

Cuicui and Qingqing felt a surprise: "Is it better to find a miracle doctor than to find a doctor?"

"Yes!"

"Sister Ziyi is not only looking for a miracle doctor?"

"I don't know. Also, I don't want outsiders to know about Fanjing Mountain. She didn't say anything, and I didn't dare to ask more. But don't worry, she and Dr. Yu have returned to Fanjing Mountain. ”

Qingqing and Cuicui both thought: What should Sister Ziyi do if she finds a mysterious doctor? Could it be that the person in Fanjing Villa is sick and asks his sister in Ziyi to go to Yunnan to find a miracle doctor?

Elder Mo asked, "What else do you have to ask me to call Hua?"

Qingqing asked, "Aren't you going to see my brother?"

"No, though he was badly wounded, he wouldn't die. I can leave with peace of mind if I call Hua!"

Then Elder Mo jumped off the boat and disappeared into the woods.

Qingqing said: "This old man is really called Huazhen, how can you say that you are leaving?"

Shang Liang said: "Lao Zhaohua seems to have come to see Brother Leopard injured. In order to protect us and the wounded, I was afraid that something would happen on the way. Now that we've arrived safely, he's certainly gone. ”

Wang Xianghu said: "It's very likely! Otherwise, the Xuanling strange people will not run away for no reason." ”

The crowd nodded.

After a while, Qingqing asked Cuicui: "You said that the nameless old man sent someone, why hasn't anyone come yet?"

Cuicui looked at the shore and became suspicious, and asked Shangliang, "Dad, did he lie to us?"

"No, what did he lie to us?"

"Then why didn't anyone come?"

"We'll see. Don't worry. ”

Shang Liang thought to himself: If the nameless old man is really a Thousand Illusion Sword and keeps his promise, he will send someone to go, if not, he doesn't need to do this, refuse not to go? At the same time, Chen Shaobai will not leave.

Cuicui said, "Okay! Wait a minute. If no one comes, I'll go to him. It drove me crazy, and I — burned down his lair. ”

Shang Liang said, "You can't do anything!"

"Who told him to deceive us!"

Qingqing said, "Cuicui, let's wait a little longer." Maybe the nameless old man couldn't find anyone. Or someone on the road has something to do. ”

So, it's saying that it's too long to wait.

Cuicui waited another hour, and then her heart was restless.

Jiang Jiangbo suddenly said: "Look! On the path, two sedan chairs are coming, are they here to pick up someone?"

Shang Liang, Qingqing, and Cuicui were all anxious to look at the shore.

Yes, there were two palanquins, but on the palanquins sat a man and a woman, apparently not the man sent by the nameless old man.

They are sedan chair men on the mountain - men and women sit on sedan chairs, probably pious men and women, go to a temple on the mountain to burn incense and worship the Buddha, and the god also swears, tired, only to rent two sedan chairs and come back?

Because in Sichuan, the palanquins in different places have only two long bamboos, worn on a thick cloth, and the tops and tops on all sides seem to carry the same stretchers as the sick and the wounded.

However, it is different from the pups that can sit or lie down.

No one can sit, but it can be rolled up and carried by a person.

This may be because Sichuan has many mountains and steep slopes, and if it is like a sedan chair in other places, it is very inconvenient.

In some places, it is simply impassable.

Therefore, such a sedan chair appeared in Sichuan, commonly known as "sedan bag".

The two sedan chairs arrived at the river, and sure enough, they got into another boat.

On the banks of this river, there are many boats, mostly men and women, who rent boats to burn incense in the temple of Jinyun Mountain.

Some leave the same day, others overnight.

Cuicui saw that there were two sedan chairs on the other man's boat, and even carried her to the fire, and said, "Dad, we will not wait; ”

Qingqing said, "What should we do if the nameless old man sends someone to see us?"

Shang Liang said, "Yes, call the little sedan chair, lest it drive into the valley." ”

Cuicui said, "Shall we wait until it gets dark?"

Unexpectedly, the two sedan chairs chased the people, but turned to their boat to do business, and a black-faced man asked, "Uncle, have any of you gone to the mountains?"

Qingqing hoped that he would make up his mind.

And Cuicui's eyes lit up for a while, because of the conversation of the sedan chair, holding half a copper coin in his hand.

Therefore, these four palanquin bearers were sent by an unknown old man.

Cuicui smiled: "You are very good at business! Come on, don't go in vain." ”

Then he took the half coin out of his pocket and threw it to the palanquin.

"Do you think we should go or not?" he asked.

The palanquin man looked at it and smiled: "We have the right person!"

Shang Liang secretly looked at the four porters, all of them were strong, wearing mountain clothes, wearing white cloth on their heads, girdles around their waists, trouser legs rolled up, and straw on their feet.

He asked them, "Why are you here so late?"

The black-faced man in the sedan chair said, "This mountain road is not easy to walk! Uncle, where is that person?"

Obviously, the black-faced palanquin bearer is the head of the four palanquins.

Qingqing asked, "Are you leaving?" Won't the four of them take a break?"

Shang Liang said, "Yes! We have tea and wine. You can drink whatever you want. ”

Cuicui said: "Our wine is good wine! ”

Hearing that there was such a good wine, the four palanquin men grinned.

Blackface said, "We thank the host!"

Shang Liang said: "You're welcome. Sit down, and I will drink with you. ”

Cuicui cried: "Dad, you ......"

Shang Liang grinned, "They came to the ship as our guests. Would you drink without an owner?

Qingqing pulled Cuicui: "Let Dad drink!"

Cuicui said, "Isn't it enough for Dad to drink?

"I'm not going to get drunk. ”

Shang Liang turned back to the four palanquin bearers and said, "Don't worry. I was just worried that I would get drunk. Look, am I going to get drunk?"

He blinked, "You can't?"

The four palanquin men smiled: "Uncle, you are so good!"

Shang Liang said to Wang Xianghu, "Boatman, please make two dishes with wine." ”

Wang Xianghu said: "Okay, uncle, then you and your eldest brother will drink first, and the food will be served later." ”

Qingqing pulled Cuicui away: "Xiaocui, there is a father here, let's go in and make some bottoms and get ready to go on the road." ”

Cuicui had to walk into the back cabin with Qingqing and said, "It seems that we can't prohibit Dad from drinking." ”

Qingqing said: "Only when his mother comes, he can restrain himself." ”

"I don't think mom can help it. He's got so many tricks, so many excuses to drink!"

When the leopard saw them coming, he asked, "Are they here?"

"Come! Daddy is drinking with them in the sailor's cabin!"

The leopard smiled and said, "It's nothing. ”

Cuicui said, "It's nothing, I thought you and him all the way, sooner or later, you will fall into the wine." Hello, what do you want?"

She saw that the leopard was about to sit up.

The leopard said, "When people come, won't I go out?"

"You're going out for drinks too?"

"No! I mean, I'm out there. ”

Qingqing said: "Don't be busy. I'm afraid they're going to drink for a while and eat vegetables for a while. ”

Cuicui said: "You can't move, you want to go out, we can carry you out, you just lie down." ”

Qingqing and Cuicui packed their things and brought some essentials.

The leopard said uneasily, "I'm sorry for you!"

Cuicui said: "Don't bother, I hope your injuries are healed!"

Qingqing said: "Brother Leopard, don't forget, you are our young master! How can you be so polite?"

Leopard said: "I am not your young master, I can treat you as a family." After that, I will wait for you as well. ”

Cuicui asked, "What did you say, do you think we'll get hurt too?"

The leopard was stunned: "I think how did you get hurt?"

"Do we need you to wait on us?"

"Ah! That's not what I meant. I mean, I'll pay you back later. ”

"Who knows what will happen to you!"

"No! I will. ”

After Qingqing and Cuicui packed their luggage, the people in the front cabin had already drunk enough.

Shang Liang asked loudly, "Qing'er, Cui'er, are you ready?"

"Ready!"

Qingqing replied, "Dad!"

"Okay, help Brother Leopard and Hall Master Zhongli leave!"

"Yes!"

First of all, the Jiang brothers carefully carried Zhong Liyu out of the front cabin with the bed board.

The two sedan chair men and Brother Jiang carefully pulled Zhong Liyu away and put it on the sedan chair.

So Qingqing and Cuicui went out with the leopard in their arms.

There are also two palanquin drivers to help the leopard into the sedan chair.

Although the leopard was injured, the injury was not as serious as Zhong Liyu's.

Zhong Liyu was not only injured all over his body, but his limbs were almost broken!

The black-faced sedan chair man asked Shang Liang: "Uncle, can you do it?"

Shang Liang said to Wang Xianghu: "Boatman, we broke up!"

Wang Xianghu was stunned: "You're not coming back?"

Shang Liang said, "I'm sorry, I had to let your ship go back to Chongqing empty! We can bring some guests back to Chongqing. ”

Qingqing said, "Uncle Wang, I hope we will meet again!"

Somehow, Wang Xianghu got along with them for more than ten days, lived and died together, experienced adversity, established a difficult level, and felt uncomfortable to be separated.

Although Wang Xianghu is always in the lake by the river, he can't see much, once it is different, it is difficult to say goodbye.

But how can we live together for so long?

He just sighed: "Well, take care!"

Wang Xianghu, Hou Fang, and the Jiang brothers saw Shang Liang and the others come ashore on the boat, until they all disappeared from the mountain alley, and turned back to the hut in dissatisfaction.

The cabin is much empty!

Wang Xianghu said, "Let us also set sail!"

Jiang Bo was trying to pull the anchor, and suddenly, the body of a figure came to the boat.

Jiang Bo looked at it calmly and said in surprise, "It's you Elder Mo!?"

The person on the boat was none other than Elder Mo, who had gone and returned.

Wang Xianghu and Hou Fang were also surprised, stunned: "Elder Mo, didn't you leave?"

Elder Mo smiled and said, "Boat family, the people in the mountains are very poor, and when there is nothing to eat, I have to come back and ask for something to eat! Brother Shang hasn't finished drinking those two bottles of wine yet?"

Wang Xianghu smiled and said, "There is not much left!"

Elder Mo was stunned: "This business brother who is doing business has drunk so much, and he is not afraid of getting drunk!?"

"He's not drinking alone. There were four palanquin men who drank well. ”
