Into the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 1 Another young master
River bank.
The filial piety shed of the Su family compound is raised, and the sound of monks chanting sutras is curling.
More than 200 years ago, the ancestors of the Su family swept through the six counties in the south of the Yangtze River with a silver spear and rarely met opponents.
After the fame rose, the Su family was based on the rivers and lakes with the "Xingyuan Dart Bureau", and then opened a wharf on the riverside, monopolizing the fishing and shipping of one party, and the business was booming, and the fields and Zhuangzi were added one after another, and the situation of two generations has been among the Jiangnan families.
But in recent decades, although the Su family still has a heritage, the people have become thinner and thinner.
On the sixth day of the first month of March, Su Jinrong, the head of the Su family, returned to heaven, although there are many white clothes in the family, but only his eldest son Su Qiyun and his wife are covered with linen, and the nine-year-old eldest grandson Su Huai'er.
The Su family is a prestigious family, and it is not surprising that there is naturally an endless stream of celebrities who come to mourn.
But to Su Qiyun's surprise, the four major sects of martial arts in the world also came.
Although his Su family is a prestigious family, in the eyes of the four major martial arts sects with a thousand-year-old heritage, it is still not enough.
But at this time, the heads of the three factions of Tianlan Peak, Luoxia Beach, and Cuiyougu were sitting in the filial piety shed, which really made Su Qiyun feel sincerely afraid.
He was even speculating whether the abbot of the Iron Mountain Temple would also suddenly appear.
Just as he was about to invite the three heads of the house into the main hall to rest and talk, he suddenly heard the roar of the family behind him, Su Qiyun turned around and saw a man wearing a hat and a black suit walking into the courtyard despite the obstruction of the family.
This person had a long knife with a narrow sheath hanging from his waist, and a pair of cold eyes stared at the black coffin in the center of the courtyard.
It is taboo to enter the mourning hall with weapons.
The comer was not good, and Su Qiyun became vigilant.
How can a martial arts family based in the rivers and lakes have no enemies. But Su Qiyun couldn't remember who the person was for a while.
Su Qiyun bowed to the three heads and said, "Let you all the heads laugh, let me deal with this person first." β
The three heads bowed slightly.
Su Qiyun took two steps forward, looked the strange man up and down, and shouted: "This is the Father's Mourning Hall, please go out immediately!" It's inconvenient for me to do something with you at this time, even if it's to seek revenge, I have to talk about some rules!! My Su family compound is not a place where you can come if you want to!! β
The man in black didn't answer, his eyes were still staring at Master Su's coffin.
Seeing that the other party was indifferent, Su Qiyun nodded to a burly man beside him.
The man's name is Shi Yong, a senior dart head of the Su Family Dart Bureau, and he has been practicing kung fu for nearly 30 years. In his decades of dart career, there are not a few heroes who die under his iron fist, and even if they survive, they are broken bones, no different from wasted people.
After receiving the hint from the master's family, Shi Yong clenched his fists and strode towards the man in black.
"Didn't you hear my young master's words clearly? This is the lord's mourning hall, if you have to look for something, then we can go out......"
Before he finished speaking, Shi Yong's voice stopped abruptly.
There was a narrow, thin opening in his throat, and a small trace of blood slipped down his neck.
"Plop!"
Shi Yong fell to the ground on his back.
Looking at the hand of the man in black, a long knife was already out of its sheath.
Everyone was shocked.
No one could see how the knife was drawn!
Even Qiu Bufeng, the head of Tianlan Peak, who was famous for his fast sword, was surprised by the speed at which the sword was drawn, and even he only vaguely saw an afterimage of the sword being drawn.
Su Qiyun stared at Shi Yong's corpse and was speechless for a long time. He knew that he was no match for this man!
The gap is too big!
Forced and frightened, Su Qiyun said in a deep voice: "You dare to do this in front of the three major leaders, are you too blind?" β
This sentence is very euphemistic.
But the meaning is clear.
He Su Qiyun was counting on the three heads of the famous sects to take action to suppress this person.
How could the three heads not understand?
But the three of them just looked at each other, and no one made a move.
It seems that even they are not completely sure that they can take down this person!
At this time, Qiu Bufeng coughed dryly twice and said, "If I'm not mistaken, you are Silla's Hualang sword technique, and it is the number of ways to draw the sword." You... Not from Kyushu? β
The man in black slowly returned the knife into the sheath: "No." β
Be concise and simply admit it.
Qiu Bufeng bowed slightly, and asked: "The Su family who came to the south of the Yangtze River thousands of miles away is to seek revenge?" β
"It's not."
Qiu Bufeng raised his eyebrows: "If you don't want to seek revenge, why do you kill people in the mourning hall?" β
"Find someone."
Su Qiyun rushed to ask, "Who are you looking for?" β
"The young master of the Su family."
Su Qiyun was stunned for a moment, frowned and said, "I am the young master of the Su family, what are you looking for me?" β
"No, another young master."
"Another young master?"
Su Qiyun held his breath and thought for a moment, and suddenly shouted, "You...... You're here to find your brother!? β
The man in black asked, "What is Brother Ling's name?" β
"Su Wangting."
The man in black nodded: "It's just looking for him." β
Su Qiyun said blankly: "But he has been away from home for ten years, and there has been no news so far." β
"I know. That's why I'm here to wait for him. β
Su Qiyun glanced at his father's coffin: "You mean, you're sure he will come back to mourn?" β
"Yes."
Su Qiyun smiled bitterly and said, "Then you have miscalculated." He was only sixteen years old when he left home, and if he were still alive, he would be twenty-six now. I think... Even if his father died, he wouldn't come back. β
The man in black repeated, "Yes, he's twenty-six this year. β
"Yes, six out of twenty now." A repetitive voice was heard from outside the courtyard gate.
Everyone was startled, and when they looked over, they saw a slender jade-faced man pacing in with lazy steps.
This person also wears a long knife around his waist.
It is similar to the long knife of the man in black.
"Lookout!?" Su Qiyun shouted loudly.
Su Wangting nodded slightly, this can be regarded as a greeting between brothers who have reunited for ten years.
And Su Qiyun didn't rush forward to hug his flesh and blood compatriots he hadn't seen for ten years, but just looked at him through the coffin, with a slightly embarrassed smile on his face.
Su Wangting glanced at the man in black and asked, "Who sent you?" β
The man in black replied, "Palace Master." β
Su Wangting sighed, and asked again, "What are you looking for me?" β
"The palace master sent his subordinates to ask you to go back."
Su Wangting sneered: "I have already told the palace master that I, Su Wangting, am from Kyushu, and it is impossible for me to stay in Silla for a long time. And the palace master is a person who understands righteousness, how can he send someone to look for me back? Don't go around in circles, who sent you? β
The man in black gritted his teeth and replied, "Yes... Young master. β
Su Wangting shook his head: "I guessed it was her." But if it is...... Why don't I go back with you? β
"The young master will let me die."
Although Su Wangting still had a smile on his face, there was already a hint of coldness in his eyes: "So, you came to take me back with a desperate determination?" β
"Yes."
Su Wangting approached the man in black and said in a low voice, "What do you mean... Are you confident that your knife will be faster than mine? β
The man in black bowed his head: "No." Far from it. β
"And you're still here?"
The man in black put his hand on the hilt of the knife at his waist: "The young master's order must be carried out." β
Su Wangting sneered: "Do you want to do it? β
"If you don't move, I'll die!"
With a flash of the sword, the man in black fell.
Self-defeating.
"Huh!?" Su Qiyun was shocked when he saw this.
Why did this terrifying man in black suddenly pull out a knife and kill himself after whispering to his brother?
This strange person and strange behavior made everyone present feel a chill in their backs.
But Su Wangting didn't even glance at the black-clothed man who fell to the ground and died, stepped over his corpse and walked straight to the three masters, arching his hand.
"The three heads came to mourn my father, my Su family's face is really big enough." Saying that, Su Wangting patted the coffin, "But, are you sincere in your condolences?" Or, something else? β
Qiu Bufeng frowned when he heard this: "What do you mean by this?" β
Su Wangting laughed twice: "Do you have to tell me to break the word? β
As soon as the words fell, I saw Su Wangting stretch out his hand and pat the coffin, and the heavy coffin lid opened in response.
"Wangting, what are you doing!!" Su Qiyun shouted.
Su Wangting ignored his brother, stared at the face in the coffin that he hadn't seen for ten years and sighed softly, then took out a heavy square green jade wrench from his father's right thumb and closed the coffin lid.
The eyes of the three masters were fixed on the jade wrench.
Su Wangting glanced at the three of them, snorted coldly, and smashed the jade wrench finger to the ground.
"Ding!"
The green jade wrench shattered in response to the sound, and a small square white jade piece was thrown out.
"What is this?" Su Qiyun took two steps forward and stared at the ground with surprise on his face, "Hidden jade in jade? What is it? β
Su Wangting picked up the white jade piece and shook it in front of the three masters: "How?" Do you want me to break the story? Today, I will leave the Su family with this thing, and I will not worry about you. β
"Humph! Sincerely come to mourn but treat each other so rudely! Qiu Bufeng got up and flicked his sleeves, "Farewell!" β
The heads of the other two factions also followed, and each of them took their retinue to carry light power and plunder out of the Su family's compound.
"What the hell is this?" Su Qiyun pointed to the white jade piece.
Su Wangting stared at the white jade pieces for a long time, and said leisurely: "This is one of the nine chapters of the Heavenly Machine, and it is rumored that you can get the world's first miracle by collecting nine of these jade pieces, "Taichu Mixed Yuan True Scripture." β
Su Qiyun gasped: "This is the ninth chapter of the Heavenly Machine!?? I have heard of the name for a long time, but I have never seen its true face, and I can't imagine that it is this kind of white jade piece. β
Su Wangting nodded: "The Taichu Mixed Yuan True Scripture is divided into three volumes. According to legend, if you collect three chapters, you can get the "Book of People", six chapters can get the "Book of Earth", and nine chapters, you can get the "Book of Heaven"! β
Su Qiyun was overjoyed when he heard this: "I didn't expect that our family would have such a baby." β
But soon Su Qiyun's face darkened again: "It seems that Dad still loves you more, but he never told me about it." β
Su Wangting sneered: "You think this is a treasure??" Let me tell you, people in the martial arts do everything to collect the Nine Chapters of Heavenly Machines, and if this thing is left in the Su family, it will become a disaster! β
Su Qiyun asked: "I don't even know about this thing, how did the three heads know that it is in my father's hands?" β
Su Wangting stroked the lid of the coffin and said, "I left home back then, in fact, my father sent someone to follow me all the way, and he also knew that I was later thrown into the gate of the Frost Flower Palace in Silla. A few months ago, I received a letter from my father, in which he said that he knew that his time was short, and asked me to go home and take the white jade tablets with me. But when I looked closely at the envelope, I found that it had been opened, indicating that the contents of the letter had been leaked. β
Su Qiyun laughed when he heard this: "I see. That... You're coming back this time, aren't you leaving? β
"Let's go. Don't worry, I'm coming back this time only to take away this scourge, and I won't compete with you for the property. β
Su Qiyun hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Our own brother, what are you talking about?" This is your home, not mine. β
"Don't talk about it, don't say it." Su Wangting took the jade piece into his arms, kowtowed three times in front of the coffin, then got up and walked out of the courtyard gate quickly.
"Lookout ......"
There was a soft call behind him, and Su Wangting trembled and stopped.
Su Qiyun's wife, Liu Ruoling, chased after her, holding on to the courtyard door and burst into tears.
Seeing this, Su Qiyun's face immediately sank, snorted lightly, and flicked his sleeves into the back room.
"Sister-in-law, is it okay to stop me?" Su Wangting did not turn around.
"Wangting, if you leave home for ten years, if you want to be here or your home, then you will stay. Even if you call me a slut every day, I'm willing. β
Su Wangting said lightly: "Sister-in-law, let it pass when the matter is over." I live with my brother, this Su family, I still expect you to support it. β
"Mother......
At this time, Su Huai'er found out.
Liu Ruoling stroked the top of Su Huai'er's head and said sadly: "This child's name is Huai'er, the locust of the locust tree, you should know what my intentions are." For the past ten years, I have always felt guilty of you......"
Su Wangting sighed and looked back at Su Huai'er.
"It's good to be as long as you want."
After speaking, Su Wangting snorted lightly and swept out, and disappeared after only three or two ups and downs.
Under the moon, by the river.
Su Wangting sat on the ground with his back against a large locust tree.
Once upon a time, a young man and a woman once promised each other a lifetime under this tree.
The wine jar has been chimeled, and the Si people are slightly drunk.
Su Wangting got up and looked back.
A petite figure walked slowly on the riverside path in the dark.
Liu Ruoling.
"Wangting, I knew you would definitely come here, you still have me in your heart!"
Su Wangting immediately smelled a fragrance, and Liu Ruoling threw herself into his arms.
But Su Wangting also immediately felt a sharp pain in his abdomen.
Looking down, a dagger had been inserted into his abdomen, and Liu Ruoling quickly swept back and looked at him coldly.
"Heh... I can't believe that you have become like this. Su Wangting sat down slowly with his back against the locust tree, "This dagger is poisonous?" β
Liu Ruoling said coldly: "Yes, it's poisonous." β
"For the white jade piece?"
Liu Ruoling nodded: "Yes." It was the Su family's thing, and it should be owned by the current head of the Su family. Can't let you take it away. β
Su Wangting said calmly: "I thought you still had me in your heart. β
"The eldest son can inherit the position of the head of the family, and the purpose of getting along with you at the beginning was to get close to your brother. You, so naΓ―ve. β
Su Wangting seemed to be unwilling: "But why should your child be called Huai'er?" β
Liu Ruoling sneered and said, "I will tell you everything if I miss your life." When I entrusted my body to your brother, I was also under this tree. β
Su Wangting gasped and said with a wry smile: "It's really hard for you to tell the truth." So... It's a good thing, this knife really woke me up......"
Liu Ruoling snorted coldly: "You shouldn't come back, Su family, there can only be one main master!" That's my husband, Su Qiyun! β
"Heh, it's not bad to die in the hands of a woman......" Su Wangting rolled his eyes and fell to the ground.
"Dead?" At this time, a person walked quickly from behind Liu Ruoling.
Su Qiyun.
Liu Ruoling nodded: "If you fall into the secret Wuqingsan of my Liu family, you will die!" β
Su Qiyun pounced impatiently and searched around Su Wangting's body.
After a while, Su Qiyun looked up at Liu Ruoling: "No!" Not on him! β
Liu Ruoling gasped: "Could it be that he hid it?" β
"Miscalculation! I knew that you should have probed him first before you started, now that the person is dead, where can I find that jade piece! β
Liu Ruoling stared at Su Wangting's lifeless face, and the corners of her mouth raised: "Even if you don't get the jade piece, it's a great pleasure for someone else to die!" Otherwise, your Su family's property is only afraid that a large piece of fat will be distributed to him! β
Su Qiyun got up and clapped his hands: "That's it!" What about this corpse...... How to dispose of it? β
Slender jade fingers stretched out, pointing to the dark river.
"Feed the fish."
