Chapter of Enlightenment [Shangguan Beicang Chapter]
"Senior brother, let's send it here."
The young man tightened the sword on his back and said goodbye to his senior brother in front of the mountain gate who had come to see him off, and walked away with the worried expression on the latter's face.
After the young man walked away, the senior brother sighed, and then seemed to notice that there was someone behind him, he looked back, and hurriedly saluted: "I have seen Uncle Kutani." β
Konggu, whose sideburns had turned white, nodded slightly to him, and then said: "Everyone has their own way to go, he will go down the mountain after all, you can stop him for a while, you can't stop him for a lifetime." β
The disciple's face was slightly bitter: "The disciple just hopes that he can be safe and happy all his life, when Senior Brother Tianquan left the mountain, he specially asked the disciple to take care of him"
The disciple couldn't help but sigh, but Konggu just shook his head, and the two watched as the young man's figure disappeared at the end of the road, not leaving for a long time.
Dongfang Bao'er - or should be called Dongfang Fu now, the original half-grown child, is now a young man who can walk the rivers and lakes alone, he wears a green coat, and the sword passed to him by the head of the family is tied on his back.
And the first stop of his trip out of the mountain was Jiangnan, not to re-follow the road of fame of his master Yushu Zhenren, but because he wanted to meet a person here, the young master of the Shangguan family, Shangguan Beicang.
When he came to Shangguan's house, Dongfang Fu found the porter and said: "This little brother is invited, I don't know that the young master of Shangguan is at home, and the poor man wants to see him if he has something." β
The concierge originally saw that the other party was dignified, and thought that it was a talented man who came to visit, but who knew that when he opened his mouth, he actually came to find Shangguan Beicang, and his face suddenly became ugly.
"I'm sorry, there's no such person here." The porter waved his hand in disgust, then stepped back, whispering to the guards at the door not to let anyone in, and then vanished.
Dongfang Fu waited under the door for a while, but he didn't see the other party come out, and there was a lot of disdain in the guard's eyes, so he had to sigh and shake his head, retreat for the time being, and then find another way.
Before coming here, he also inquired about the situation of the Shangguan family, as a member of the new emperor to ascend the throne, Shangguan Shaoqin held the power of the dragon, and the Shangguan family should have a promising future, but it is a pity that there is an unlucky heir in this family, Shangguan Beicang.
Shangguan Beicang is a guilty person, and he is the heir of the Shangguan family, which leads to the fact that this is a family with no future to speak of.
Pingbai let his own climbing ladder fold, Shangguan Beicang, the young master, must not have a good time at home, but Dongfang Fu didn't expect that the other party had reached a level where even outsiders couldn't see it.
If it was ordinary, when he encountered such a thing, he should have retreated, after all, this is someone else's family matter, and he may be suspected of provocation if he is too involved.
But at this moment, Dongfang Fu had no choice, he had to meet this person, and then ask the other party about the matter back then.
It's just that he didn't think of a way to meet Shangguan Beicang, and someone had already found him first.
"Are you a disciple of Qingcheng?"
In the alleyway, a total of eight people blocked Dongfangfu's road, and the leader said coldly: "I recognize the sword on your body, it is the blade of the old Yushu Dao!" β
Dongfang Fu looked up at these people, since he chose to go out of the mountain with his master's sword, he didn't think about hiding his identity, these people came to ask, and he was not afraid to answer.
"That's right," Dongfang replied: "Poor Dao Yunxi, the family teacher Yushu is a real person, I don't know what a few people have to say." β
Dongfang revisited the Qingcheng Gate, and after the official entrance, he took the road name Yunxi.
"Sure enough, it's from the Qingcheng faction, you still dare to go down the mountain!" Another man said angrily.
Dongfang Fu's eyes condensed slightly: "Oh? I don't know what my Qingcheng faction has done to hurt the heavens and reason, so that you don't allow my Qingcheng disciples to walk in the rivers and lakes? β
"Dare to quibble!" The man glared angrily: "Isn't that Tianquan, who is in the same stream with the demon girl of the Demon Sect and indiscriminately killing fellow people in the rivers and lakes, a disciple of your Qingcheng faction!" Hmph, I heard that kid is also a disciple of Yushu Lao Dao, so in this way, you are still a senior brother in the same vein as him. β
Several people looked unkind, as if they were about to make a move, Dongfang Fu said coldly: "Everyone, be careful! Why did my senior brother Tianquan be driven by that demon girl, there is still no explanation, you are waiting so wantonly to put many charges on my senior brother, do you think that I have no one in the Qingcheng faction! β
As he spoke, the sword behind Dongfang's recovery was suddenly unsheathed, and the men glanced at each other and shouted; "Don't talk nonsense with him! The Qingcheng faction killed our brother, so let's ask for some interest today! β
The eight people punched out one after another, the strong wind pressed the flowers and plants on the side of the road and couldn't raise their heads, and there were opponents in all directions, Dongfang Fu looked coldly, and the sword that rushed into the sky suddenly split into three, smashing to the ground like a meteor, and the wind and waves stirred up directly overturned them.
In one move, all the men who came up from the siege spit out and flew out, Dongfang retracted his sword into the sheath, watching those people rolling on the ground and wailing, he said lightly: "Today's matter, Poor Dao let you go, if you let Poor Dao hear your bad words to the Qingcheng faction in the future, beware of the ruthlessness of the poor Dao sword." β
After the words fell, Dongfang Fu strode out of the alley, and after a while, two figures flashed, looking at the eight rolling insects around, one of them said with disdain: "The goods of the three sects and the nine streams really can't be counted on." β
Another person said: "Not necessarily, that kid's martial arts are indeed beyond our expectations." β
The man said: "It's okay, the enemies of the Qingcheng faction are all over the world, if he is honestly nesting on the mountain, we can't do anything about him, but since he has gone down the mountain, then it's no wonder that I don't care about the love of the Daomen." β
The two glanced at each other, one of them stepped on the wall and went to the eaves, and disappeared for a moment, and the other person stayed, his eyes swept over the eight people around him, and he pulled out his sword with a sneer, and several sword lights fell, and the eight people had fallen into a pool of blood without a sound.
This person took the sword, the same point under his feet, stepped on the eaves and went away, if there are people who know the goods, they can see at a glance that these two people are using Taoist martial arts.
Dongfang Fu didn't know that he had been targeted, he went around a few times outside the Shangguan family's mansion, and found that this courtyard was not as well-guarded as he imagined, if it was him, it would not be difficult to avoid the eyes of others and climb over the wall to enter.
As soon as he said and did it, Dongfang Fu first found an inn to rest, and after nightfall, he quietly sneaked to the root of the wall of Shangguan's mansion, and then easily climbed over.
While hiding his figure against the root of the wall, he began to look for the residence of the young master Shangguan Beicang, but he had just sneaked in for a while, and suddenly heard the sound of breaking wind behind him.
The alarm bell sounded in his heart, Dongfang Fu decisively rolled to the side to dodge, and with a bang, a stone hit the place where he had landed before, and a crack appeared on the neat stone slab.
Dongfang Fu's heart was shocked, and he looked back to see a masked man crouching on the wall, his eyes staring at him.
"Who are you?" Dongfang Fu asked coldly, he thought to himself, if this person is a master of the Shangguan family, there is no need to dress up like this, the other party is so ruthless, if it is not for the enmity with the Shangguan family. It's enmity with him!
"Disciple Qingcheng, hum." The masked man sneered, and then drew his sword and killed, and with a sword slash, most of the walls around Dongfang Fu collapsed, not caring at all about attracting the attention of the Shangguan family.
Dongfang Fu is not good, he sneaked in, and he must not be able to tell if he is caught, so he does not love to fight, but fights and retreats, and hides backwards when he finds the right time.
The two chased and fled, as if they didn't take the Shangguan family in their eyes at all, and Dongfang Fu was surprised by the latter's martial arts while fleeing.
Many years ago, the imperial court and the rivers and lakes were on the same page, and after repeated calculations, the righteous path of the rivers and lakes was five labors and seven injuries, but what was worse than them was actually the demon way, because the Xuantian Sect, the first sect of the demon path, rebelled clearly.
When the imperial court suppressed the rebellion, it also used the army to clean up the Northern Demon Dao by the way, and for a time the Demon Dao suffered heavy losses, and the big forces that were once on the list did not survive, and they barely survived and lost their former glory.
So in recent years, the Demon Dao has almost disappeared, and there are no more people in the Demon Dao who are strong in martial arts on the rivers and lakes, and they are all worried that they will be caught by the Jinyi Guard, so they are all hidden, and they almost dig a hole to bury themselves.
Therefore, the martial arts are not bad, so Dongfang Fu guessed that the other party should be from the Righteous Sect.
He deliberately tried to test the other party's background, but unfortunately this was the realm of the Shangguan family, and they had already made a lot of noise when they fought all the way, and he had to withdraw.
"Want to go? No way! β
The man seemed to see Dongfang Fu's thoughts, and suddenly changed his move in his hand, the sword blade pointed to the sky, the sword qi stepped on the ground, and the cyclone divided into yin and yang, turning into a light and dark light curtain, like a big net covering Dongfang Fu.
"Taoist martial arts?!" Dongfang Fu was taken aback, he never expected that the other party was actually a disciple of the Daomen.
"Hey, but that's it."
Seeing that Dongfang Fu was easily taken down by himself, the masked man couldn't help but mock loudly, he wanted to drag the other party, but when the master of the Shangguan family arrived, the other party naturally had no way to live.
But now he has changed his mind, although this Dongfang Fu martial arts is good, it is not high enough to embarrass him, since he can kill this kid himself, why pretend to be someone else's hand.
The masked man whispered to himself: "Senior brother is just thinking too much, there are many disciples of the Dao Sect in the world, if I kill him today, I will leave, fish into the sea, forgive him No matter how great the Qingcheng faction is, how can he find me, hum." β
After thinking about it for a while, the masked man had already made a success in his heart, and he sneered: "Boy, if you want to complain, just blame you for being a disciple of Qingcheng, remember to have a good baby in the next life!" β
The voice fell, the masked man came with a sword to kill, Dongfang Fu was trapped by the strange formation, and he couldn't dodge, and he was about to be succeeded by the other party, so at this critical moment, two words suddenly came out of the darkness-
"Save him."
Just as the masked man was about to succeed, a sudden sword light flashed, shaking him back and breaking the big net that trapped Dongfang Fu.
"Damn, someone is bad for me!" The masked man was a little angry.
For the rest of his life after the catastrophe in the East, he couldn't help but look in the direction where he had just spoken, only to see two figures slowly walking out of the darkness, one of them was dressed in a gorgeous costume, but his face was haggard, obviously a young man, but his eyes were desolate, but he was even less energetic than the octogenarian man.
The other wears a cloak and a hat on his head, and his whole body is hidden tightly from top to bottom, leaving no room for exploration.
When the two appeared, they didn't care about the masked man, but talked to themselves.
First, the mysterious man said: "Boy, we are protecting you from above, but we are not here to help you. β
The young man in Chinese clothes replied: "Don't worry, I'm not an ignorant person, it's just that you want to protect my life, if I don't cooperate with you, it will be troublesome, and if you help me today, it will be convenient for you after all." β
"Sharp teeth. That's it, the official is in a good mood today, so let's do what you wish. β
The mysterious man smiled, and then walked forward, he slowly untied the cloak on his body, took off the hat on the top of his head, under the mysterious veil, there was a silver flying fish suit, under the sleeve robe, the sharp embroidered spring knife seemed to be kneaded into the moonlight, is emitting a faint cold light.
"Jinyiwei?!" The masked man lost his mind.
Dongfang Fu looked at the Jinyiwei who suddenly appeared, and also clenched his fists slightly, his family was killed by Jinyiwei, and they had a deep blood feud with each other, but now they don't care about these things, he is too weak to be the opponent of these people, all he can do is grit his teeth and hibernate.
"Your life is good," the brocade guard pulled a knife flower, put the embroidered spring knife on his shoulder, and said with a smile: "The yamen has changed its rules now, a pawn like you, killing regardless of merit, this official can let you go today. . β
The masked man was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily: "Dog officer! Brag unblushingly! You think you could-"
Before the words fell, I saw a silver light flash under the moon, and the brocade guard suddenly approached the masked man in two steps, and saw a touch of blood bloom when the knife fell, a sword light fell to the ground, and one arm flew into the sky, the masked man covered the injured arm and retreated suddenly, but the brocade guard stopped.
"And a helper, heh-" Jin Yiwei coldly glanced at the other masked man standing with a sword on the wall, and just sneered: "Guihong swordsmanship, it turned out to be a disciple of the Kunlun faction, why, why don't you guard the spirit of the old man in Kunlun Mountain, and run to the rivers and lakes to get involved?" β
The masked man with the broken arm jumped backwards and landed on the wall, and when he heard the words of the brocade guard, he immediately said angrily: "Dog officer, you dare to insult my master!" β
Xiang Suifeng of the Kunlun faction passed away not long ago, as one of the two masters of Kunlun and called the "Kunlun Two Immortals", Xiang Suifeng fell into a secret wound in a battle with the King of a Thousand Faces, and after being tortured by illness for several years, he finally passed away with great difficulty.
This masked man seems to be Xiang Suifeng's disciple, he broke an arm, and now he is angry, only to see that his eyes are red, quite like a demon, the person next to him quickly stopped him: "Senior brother, you can't do anything, you are injured, withdraw first." β
"Senior brotherβokay." The masked man glared unwillingly, but eventually fled with his brother.
"Heh, the kung fu is so bad, but the tone is not small," the brocade guard sneered, slowly put the knife into the sheath, and stopped when he turned around and walked past the young man in the gorgeous clothes: "You owe the official a favor for today's matter, and you have to pay it back." β
The young man in the costume nodded lightly: "I know." β
After the brocade guard finished speaking, he put on the black robe of the hat again, and soon disappeared into the night, and the young man in the gorgeous clothes took two steps forward and pulled Dongfang Fu up from the ground: "It's okay." β
Thank you Gongzi for your help," Dongfang replied and thanked him, and suddenly said: "You and I have never met, but Gongzi is willing to ask that Jinyi Wei to save the life of the poor Dao, forgive the poor Dao for being presumptuous, but the son is the young master of Shangguan?" β
"The word young master doesn't need to be mentioned anymore, the Taoist chief is called by the next name." Shangguan Beicang shook his head and said, his indifference seemed to have already seen everything, but looking at the tiredness in his eyes, it seemed that he had not come out of the past.
Shangguan Beicang glanced at Dongfang Fu's sword, and said with a complicated look in his eyes: "I recognize this sword, when Yushu Zhenren came to the mansion, I was fortunate to see his demeanor, you are his disciple?" β
"Poor road." Oriental re-examination of the head.
"Looks like I guessed right. Looking at your age, you should be that person's junior brother? Shangguan Beicang's eyes were a little more complicated, who the person in his mouth was, there was no need to say, they were all clear.
Dongfang Fu took a deep breath, and said: "The son is smart, and the poor road will no longer beat around the bush, before my senior brother Tianquan died, he stayed in the Eastern Capital, and the poor road inquired in many ways, and learned that the situation in the Eastern Capital was complicated at that time, and the three families of Lin and Liu Fang were fighting for power and profit in the Eastern Capital, and my senior brother was accidentally involved, and he also had some festivals with the Shangguan family who stayed in the Eastern Capital at that time. β
Shangguan Beicang looked at him and said, "Your senior brother died at the hands of the Emei faction, this matter is known to everyone in the rivers and lakes, and it is useless for you to come to find me." β
Dongfang Fu said in a deep voice: "Poor Dao understands, but Poor Dao doesn't want to be infamous after the death of his senior brother, Poor Dao wants to find out why Senior Brother will go the same way with that demon demon girl, and why he will kill many fellow Daoists in the rivers and lakes with her, so that he is forced to a dead end, and finally cannot turn back." β
Shangguan Beicang was silent for a long time, and finally said: "It's really luck that you can be saved today, next time the Kunlun faction makes a comeback, you may not have such good luck, don't forget, how many Kunlun disciples were killed by the demon girl Qian Xiaoxiao back then, these blood feuds are recorded on the body of the demon girl, and also on your senior brother, and now it is recorded on the body of the Qingcheng faction, go back to the mountain, I advise you, some things are not unavoidable." β
Dongfang Fu's eyes froze: "In this way, Shangguan Gongzi really knows something, right?" Please speak up! β
Shangguan Beicang looked at Dongfang Fu, and for a moment, it seemed that he had seen the high-spirited Tsing Yi little sword.
"You're looking for the wrong person."
Shangguan Beicang finally spoke, but this was not a simple prevarication, only to hear him say again: "I'm just a fool who doesn't understand anything, if you want to find out the truth about the Tianquan Dao Chief's betrayal of the righteous path, there is only one person in the world who can give you the answer." β
"Who is it?" Dongfang Fu asked eagerly.
"Loose faction, the moon is away from the wind." Shangguan Beicang said word by word.
"Is that him?"
Dongfang Fu was taken aback, and some unknown thoughts appeared in his mind, he knew the name of this person, and it could even be said that he was quite clear, because this person's senior had killed a very good friend of his.
Many years ago, in Liaoyang City, the northland, Lu Qiqi, the last leader of the beggar gang, was killed by the Taiwei Daoist of the Xiaoyao faction, and I heard that this month left the wind, and it was also involved in this matter.
Dongfang Fu's life was bumpy, and his identity as a concubine made him unvalued since he was a child, and then the Dongfang family disappeared overnight, and he wandered around with his only remaining sister.
Later, my sister got acquainted with the beggar gang Lu Seventeen, and the other party sent him to Qingcheng Mountain, and this day finally settled down.
In Dongfang Fu's life, the people he can really care about in his heart, except for his sister, master, and Tianquan Senior Brother, is this Brother Lu who has only been with him for a short time and a half.
He didn't believe that Brother Lu's carefree temperament would collude with Jinyiwei for anything, this matter must also be boring, but unfortunately this matter is much more difficult to investigate than the death of Tianquan now.
Therefore, Dongfang Fu is both intentional and powerless
He shook his head, suppressed these thoughts in his mind for the time being, and said to Shangguan Beicang: "Please also ask Shangguan Gongzi for guidance, where should Poor Dao go to find this Yue Lifeng?" β
Shangguan Beicang sighed: "The shadow of the Loose Sect is indispensable for many things in the rivers and lakes, he seems to be everywhere, but if you want to find out exactly where he is, it is also difficult. Maybe you can go to North Shaolin. β
"Northern Shaolin? Why? Dongfang Fu asked.
"The current abbot of Northern Shaolin, Master Lingwu, he accepted a lay disciple before he entered Shaolin, named Huo Yunqi, this person was born in the once famous Huo family of Sword Casting Villa, this Huo Gongzi is now a broken family, but before he suffered, he was in the Eastern Capital at the same time with the Tianquan Taoist and the free sect Yue Lifeng."
"So this person is the key?" Dongfang Fu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he immediately saluted: "The grace of the son to solve the confusion will be repaid in the future." β
"I have written down these words, and I hope that the Taoist chief will not forget today's favor."
Shangguan Beicang's face rarely had a little smile: "Although Dao Chang's martial arts are still ordinary now, you can see that you are extraordinary, if you go further in your martial arts one day in the future, please go to Jiangnan again." β
Dongfang Fu looked at him, this huge Shangguan mansion seemed to be a cage to the other party, and he seemed to understand a little: "Poor Dao understands, if there is one day, Poor Dao will definitely come to save Gongzi from this predicament." β
"Haha, I can't escape. I can't escape it in my life."
Shangguan Beicang smiled desolately, and he said with sadness in his eyes: "I only hope that on the day when the Dao Chief's divine achievements are completed, he can come and take my life, and the earth will return to the earth, and the dust will return to dust, and it will be a hundred."
Shangguan's family is indeed Shangguan Beicang's cage, and everyone in the family wants him to die, but with the protection of brocade clothes, he can't die, and he doesn't want to live, but unfortunately he can't commit suicide.
He had already understood that he had already set the trajectory of those people in the court in his life, and once he chose to kill himself and spoil the good deeds of those people, the angry Jinyi Wei immediately poured out his anger on the Shangguan family.
He wanted to die, but he couldn't, so he had to live numb in the hateful gaze of his people day after day.
If Dongfang Fu, an outsider, can end his life with one hand, it will be a great joy.
In a trance, Shangguan Beicang seemed to hear a snickering in the dark, and the brocade guard didn't know whether he was laughing at his foolish loyalty to the Shangguan family, or laughing at his whimsical hope for a teenager.
The evening breeze was cold, the moonlight was bleak, and in the courtyard, the lonely shadow was reflected on the wall, and the night was still very long.
