In the courtyard of Yuanfeng Temple, the courtyard that is not very big is getting smaller and smaller under the crowding of two plane trees, it is the bud of the early spring and March, but this bluestone slab is full of gold, a shirtless bearded man holds a heavy iron broom and keeps sweeping, the long red hair is scattered and the crimson beard is like a steel cone, the bronze skin can't help but have goosebumps in this warm and cold season, but also steaming mist, he breathes heavily, and a pair of tiger eyes look at the broom in his hand, The still red eyebrows are like two sharp swords straight into the temples, and the calloused hands hold the broom tightly, and the muscles are gathered like dragons, obviously very difficult, but every time he sweeps the ground, the sound is subtle and almost inaudible, and the golden leaves are superimposed on each other with his sweep, revealing the ravines on the ground that are not deep but not shallow, which are the traces left by the broom for many years.

The sunlight shot out from the gap in the dark clouds, just shining on the big man's body, and the bronzed skin faintly showed a golden light, whew! The big man exhaled a long breath, gently put down the broom, and with a bang, the earth seemed to tremble, he raised his arm and brushed his forehead, wiping the sweat, but the sweat had already turned into mist, perhaps it was due to habit, and with a gentle flick, the sonorous sound was endless, and the hand was actually made by King Kong, but the master was highly skilled, and it looked lifelike like a real hand.

"Why did the royal chief ask you to come?" The big man said loudly, his voice was low and heavy, and in line with his image, he said this to the three little Taoist priests who had been standing under the eaves for almost an hour.

I only heard one of the Taoist priests with his hair scattered and wearing Taoist robes say: "Old Duan, can we not be so hypocritical, finally come here once, you don't first entertain with good wine and food, and ask what are you doing with these!" "It may not be accurate to say that he is a Taoist priest, it should be a Taoist aunt, and he is a Taoist aunt with a slightly wrinkled nose because of anger.

"Hehehe, that's natural, it's just that today came too suddenly, I didn't have any preparation, and wait for me to put down this broom, this is a temple, drink wine and eat meat, and get my broken shop!" Dahan said boldly.

The other two little Taoist priests all respectfully hugged their fists and thanked: "Thank you Senior Duan!" "They don't dare to be like Dao Gu, who is neither big nor small, this is the Duan Bailian Master in front of him, who is known as the Divine Skill Hundred Refining, usually even the master is respectful when he meets him, for fear that if he accidentally offends, it will be difficult to open his mouth if there is anything that needs to be repaired and built in the future.

"You're welcome, you're welcome, Xiaobai and Haoran have grown a lot taller! I don't know if the amount of alcohol has gone up? Dahan Duan Bailian said with a smile, and while speaking, he raised the broom in his hand and put it in front of him, and then shouted, and a visible force shook all the sycamore leaves under his feet, only to see him jump up like a big bear, this jump jumped directly onto the sycamore tree, and then slowly put the broom on the two branches, the calf-thick branch was directly bent down more than a meter, Duan Bailian saw that the branch was not shaking, took a deep breath and jumped down gently, and landed silently without the slightest opportunity.

Xiao Daogu couldn't help but applaud and praised: "It's really amazing, this iron broom is made of dark iron, heavier than a thousand catties, and it is like an ordinary broom in your hand, the master said that you are the first person in the world to do external skills, I didn't believe it before, but now I believe it!" ”

"Wang Dao Chang praised it falsely, and you are also falsely praised!" Duan Bailian smirked.

"It's not, the praise is right, it's just not to the point!" The little Taoist priest with the brocade box on his back said.

"What's wrong?" Dao Gu, who was called flawless, said.

"This broom is three meters long, and it does weigh a thousand catties when it is not moved, but the design of the broom is not as hard as steel, but on the contrary, it is as flexible as bamboo, and the broom will shake when it is waved. The little Taoist priest with the brocade box on his back replied.

"It's worthy of being a disciple of the old man Dugu, it seems that this big gun is also very skilled, right?" Duan Bailian said.

Xiao Daogu frowned and looked at the two of them, but her brows didn't stretch out, "Why are you talking about the big gun again?" Aren't we talking about brooms? ”

The little Taoist priest, who was called Senior Brother Gongsun, stepped forward two steps forward and said softly: "You have seen Xiaobai's big gun, it is very light when you hold the head of the gun, and the further back it goes, the heavier it becomes, once the marksmanship is deployed, the heavier it becomes, this is actually the same as the broom!" ”

"Hahaha, not bad, it's really the first luck of Tianyi that Wang Daochang can accept the three of you as apprentices, Yu Wufang, Li Mobai, Gongsun Haoran, even the name is so good, you want to have a few drinks with us today!" Duan Bailian laughed loudly, and the sound was so loud that the branches of the sycamore tree rattled.

Yes, the one who is carrying the brocade box is Li Mobai, Yu Wuflawless and Gongsun Haoran are his senior brothers and sisters, after the first battle of the Li family courtyard, Xuanyuan Kunlun, Li Shuzhen and Hongling all flew away, Dugu Daozang because of the view of Xuanyuan Kunlun's last sword in his heart, so he entrusted Li Mobai to the Wudang faction, originally just wanted to help take care of himself and wait for his enlightenment to come and pick him up, but he didn't think that after Wudang taught Wang Mingyang to come out of retreat, he found that this son was extremely talented, and he was accepted as a closed disciple without saying a word. Li Mobai also naturally became the youngest junior uncle of the Wudang faction.

Out of the Yuanfeng Temple to the east not far to Duan Bailian's blacksmith shop, the blacksmith shop is not big and the door is also very dirty, a few fires in the furnace are still burning with the crackling sound of wood crackling, there is a water tank full of water next to the stove, the strange thing is that the water in the water tank is not frozen but the water tank is covered with frost, it seems that this water tank is colder than frost, behind the water tank is a black lacquered wood bellows, the bellows is connected to the stove, Duan Bailian beckoned the three little Taoist priests to go to the inner room, and then carried an iron pot on the stove, He took a few sticks of wood from under the stove and threw them into the stove, and he took a step and blew on the stove, and the flames instantly surrounded the iron pot, and after doing this, he went into the house again, and after a while, he came out with a bucket of water and a large piece of mutton chops, and poured all the water and lamb chops into the pot, and then dragged a few garlic cloves from the garlic braid hanging on the wall and threw them into the pot, and turned around and walked into the house again.

The light in the room is not very good, filled with a pungent smell of rust and burning, there are rows of iron hanging on the wall, there are hoes and shovels, there are also swords, guns, swords and halberds and other weapons, although they are all bright but not sharp, through the dim front of the room suddenly becomes bright, a courtyard, a large yard, it is more appropriate to say that it is a practice room, all kinds of exercise equipment and eighteen kinds of weapons are neatly placed against the wall, the ground is paved with fine marble floors, bright as new, The only drawback is that there are already a few pieces in the middle, as if they have been smashed by some heavy object, and there is a pavilion inside, and there is a table and four benches in the pavilion, which is very simple.

At this time, the three little Taoist priests were sitting on the bench waiting for Duan Bailian, and when they saw him walking in from outside, they only heard Yu Wuflawless and crisp voice saying, "Old Duan, what kind of good wine do you have today?" ”

Lao Dan touched his head honestly, and said with a smile: "We can't compare to having guests, there is no expensive good wine, but now in this season, it is best to drink a few sips of jade ice roast, with the taste of mutton, hehe!" ”

Yu Wufang didn't know much about wine, and when he heard that Yu Bingyao actually had the same surname as himself, he thought that Duan Bailian was making fun of her, so he didn't do it right away, and snorted and sat on the bench without speaking.

Duan Bailian didn't guess this little woman's mind for a while, and he was a little overwhelmed.

Gongsun Haoran laughed twice when he saw this, "The age of this jade ice burner is not much older than your jade flawless, but you are the one who takes advantage!" In fact, its real name is called meat ice roast, originated in Foshan, Guangdong, is to soak the cooked fat meat in rice wine, after a large vat of aging, the wine body is jade and ice clear, the entrance is mellow, the aftertaste is sweet, the most important thing is that this wine is not on the head, but I didn't expect to be able to drink it here. ”

"Really?" Yu Wufang raised his head and looked at Gongsun Haoran, then at Duan Bailian, and finally stopped his eyes on Li Mobai who was carrying the brocade box, after a day of trekking, Li Mobai looked a little drowsy, nodded subconsciously, and then Yu Wufang put away his gaze, "Okay, then take it out and let the master taste it!" As she spoke, she couldn't help but put her right leg on the bench, and the whole first-class hooligan form.

Li Mobai raised his foot and kicked her right leg off, turned his head and said to Duan Bailian with a smile: "Senior Duan, don't pay attention to her, and go get the wine, if you don't drink some more, I'll fall asleep!" ”

"Okay, okay!" Duan Bailian went around to the table as he spoke, bent down and slapped it with his palm, the marble on the ground was not shattered as he imagined, but was sucked up by him, only to see that the marble was as black as ink, and the only thing that could be seen was a few stone stairs at the entrance, Duan Bailian put down the marble and slowly melted into the darkness, and only then did he come out with the two jars in his arms, and a smell of wine suddenly spread.

"This is a senior, you brewed it yourself?" Li Mobai asked.

"Yes! I used to learn martial arts in Foshan by the way, I saw the beautiful mountains and rivers here, the spring water is clear and sweet, so I tried to brew a few jars, I never thought that the taste was more pure than Foshan's! Duan Bailian put the wine on the table as he spoke, took out four pairs of bowls and chopsticks and four wine glasses from under the table, and poured them without waiting for the three little Taoist priests to speak.

"Fragrant, so fragrant! It's more fragrant than my master's brewed bamboo leaf green! Wow......" Li Mobai picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.

Duan Bailian poured him another glass of water and said, "This wine can't be drunk too fast, it's easy to get drunk, it's best to be slow first and then fast!" When the mutton comes, the meat wine with the meat meat will taste even more extraordinary! As he spoke, he took out a pair of chopsticks from under the table and placed them on the table.

Yu Wufang was puzzled, looked around and asked, "What?" Lao Duan, aren't you looking for a wife? Tell us about it! ”

Duan Bailian smiled and shook his head, "Where would a woman like me take a fancy to me!" He poured the fifth cup full, turned his head to the courtyard wall, and said, "Friend, since you have already come, don't hide any more, wouldn't it be nice to come out and have a drink!" ”
