Hot springs are not first-class masters.

This point, when he was young, was faintly revealed from his sword skills.

When I was twenty years old, the master said, "Go down the mountain and break through." He obeyed his master's orders and went out to explore the rivers and lakes. Young people, who hasn't had a dream of a hero, the hero in the dream, the money bag is empty and full, and the love scene is frustrated, but there is one thing that is the same: martial arts must be world-beating.

This one will kill him. He soon discovered that his three-legged cat's kung fu was second-rate at best, and if he dared to call himself a little fifth-rate with his face, others would have to laugh at it.

At first, he didn't think it was his problem. He felt that he was still young and could still practice, there must be something wrong, aren't the brothers in the same sect all masters-he forgot, he was not lazy at all when he practiced hard, but when he went to the martial arts arena, he couldn't beat either his senior brother or his junior brother.

He went back to the master first. The master was very embarrassed and told him, Quanzi, I have tried my best to teach you, and there is no hiding any secrets, but this matter is really different from person to person, so you just want to open it.

At that time, the hot springs were not as open as they are now. He had a big quarrel with his master, ran away from the door, and did not forget to leave behind the cruel words before leaving: If I don't become a hero in this life, I won't enter this door again.

Hot Springs went to Jiangnan to find the Lin family's first knife in the world. At that time, the Lin family was in its heyday, with many talents, and the name of the world's first knife was replaced every year, and the two brothers Lin He and Lin Hai could not be replaced every year.

He was looking for Lin He. It's not that he looks down on Lin Hai, the main thing is that Lin Hai accompanied his daughter-in-law back to the door at that time and was not at home. When the gatekeeper saw that a young man came to the door, he shouted that he wanted to challenge the first knife in the world, and he was accustomed to going in to call people. When Lin He arrived at the door, he shook his head when he saw his posture of drawing his sword, and said that I will not fight with you, and I will win by bullying the small.

Hey, what's that called?

The hot spring is angry, which shows that he is young and disrespectful. He didn't expect that a real swordsman would never have this attitude in the face of an opponent worthy of a battle.

He turned around and left, and as soon as he left, he walked to Mobei. Li Jiang in Mobei was born as a horse thief, although he is also a famous swordsman, but he is not as particular as Erlin. The two of them entered the school grounds, and as soon as the hot spring started the fight, someone came up and chopped his knife away.

Hot Spring was stunned: This knife, if Li Jiang hadn't collected a little effort, even his head would have been split together.

He finally understood that there are some things that you really can't do if you want to.

He left Mobei in despair, and before leaving, Li Jiang patted him on the shoulder and said Little brother, martial arts are not everything, you see that I am alone, and now I only regret pursuing sword skills back then and letting go of that girl. This comfort warmed his heart so much that he wanted to cry: the little junior sister he liked was the daughter of the master, yes, it was the master who couldn't go back if he couldn't be a hero.

When the hot spring came to his senses, he had already returned to Jiangnan. Not only did he go back, but he had been drinking wine on the Yanque Tower for a month. It's not that he suddenly sobered up, but the main thing is that Xiao Er came over and said with an embarrassed face, this master, you really can't take credit anymore, your wine bill last week should be paid. He just got kicked out of the drunken country by the empty money bag.

The hot spring hid his face and walked down from the bird's tower. Halfway through, I suddenly saw someone fighting downstairs. Several men with big shoulders and round waists surrounded a young man. The young man was thin and tall, and he was pushed and pushed into a corner by them, looking embarrassed.

Gentlemen, you must know that in the first twenty years of your life, Hot Springs has always regarded herself as a future hero, and to be a hero, you must not only look at martial arts, but also look at character. Although his dream was shattered by reality in terms of knife skills, moral inertia drove him to rush into the encirclement, and when the road was uneven, he drew his sword to help.

Didn't pull it out.

He took out the knife from his waist and took it out, only then did he remember that the knife had also been sold by him for wine.

Now it became a circle of big men surrounded two people, and the big men were all fierce and vicious, staring at the hot springs and saying that they blocked the way of the uncles and had your good fruit to eat!

Hot Springs wept and saw one of them wearing the waist badge of the Deer Hunting Gang. The Deer Hunting Gang is famous, but it is not a good reputation: the boss Xiao Qiang is known as the king of Hades with two guns, one red tassel gun kills all the heroes in Yangzhou, and the other shoots all over Qinhuai Yanliu under the crotch.

And he saw sweat on his forehead. But in the end, he was still young, and the hot springs couldn't do anything to kneel down and beg them to let him live, and he was embarrassed there with his bare hands. It was the young man who pushed him from behind and said to run! Only then did he react, dragging the young man and running.

Speaking of which, Hot Spring's light skills are actually better than his knife skills. But no matter how good the legs and feet were, they couldn't stop the panic, and in the end, the two of them were blocked in the alley together.

The hot spring boldly stepped forward, saying that there must be some misunderstanding here. The big man at the head said that the little chick slaughtered our boss by three indiscriminate means, what misunderstanding can there be. The hot spring was stunned for a moment.

The young man said behind his back that you boss did a lot of evil and found death by yourself and crashed into the hands of the master, can you blame me? Besides, I killed him openly, I didn't use any means, you don't want to smear people's innocence out of thin air.

The young man had a big tongue and an accent that he couldn't make out where it was, but the passage was clear. The hot spring was stunned again.

In this stunned, the big men lay down in the blink of an eye, ran and ran, covered their wrists on the ground and wailed loudly, and those who were still standing were scattering birds and beasts. The young man carried the sword, and the blood was dripping down from the blade, and he turned his head and said Thank you for saving me, although you didn't save me, I was still in the way, I asked you to run What are you pulling me for, my legs are about to break. Oh yes, I forgot to ask, Brother Taigao's surname?

The hot spring said blankly, "My name is hot spring." ”

The young man said happily, "Brother Wen, my name is Ye Zhanyi. ”

An idea suddenly flashed in Hot Spring's mind: If you can't be a hero, you can be a hero's brother.

As soon as this brother was in charge, he was in office for five years. Hot Springs later learned that Ye Zhanyi was a native of Miaojiang, the same age as him, and he also entered the Central Plains at the age of 20. The difference is that he has no one to feed him in Miaojiang since he was a child, and when he entered the Central Plains, he found that he could win anyone, as if he was chopping melons and vegetables.

The hot springs were jealous for a while. But after hearing Liu Bailu say that Ye Zhanyi would become a great weapon in another five years, he couldn't even be jealous. After all, Mr. Liu is the only No. 1 sword in the world in the past ten years. What's more, Ye Zhanyi is always called by Brother Wen and Brother Wen, he has to come out like a big brother, right?

Three years after Liu Bailu said this, Ye Zhanyi resigned from him, and the hot spring did not keep him. He had long seen that Ye Zhanyi's master must be first-class, and now that the actual combat was enough, it was time to go back and polish and improve - this process was not understood by himself, it was told to him by the master, and he didn't understand it at that time.

At that time, he didn't understand that the master was full of compassion and taught him the same as any other senior brother. He went back to the master's door, knelt at the door of the master's room, and wanted to turn back with tears in his eyes, but the tears really couldn't be played, so he had to cry hoarsely: "Master, you have a lot of old people, forgive the disciple for being ignorant!" Woo, Master! ”

Outside the courtyard gate, there was a "poof" laugh, he was shocked, and when he turned around, he saw the little junior sister laughing and trembling at the door. It's over, but I was seen by my sister.

He covered his face and fell down.

The door creaked open. The bamboo cane "snapped" and hit him on the shoulder, and the master was angry: "If you know it's wrong, get it up for me!" Manly man, what's the use of looking for death and life here! ”

He stepped forward and hugged Master's thigh: "You forgive me!" Disciple, let's go practice! ”

Master looked up to the sky and sighed. There's no way, who called him such a daughter, and he still fell in love with this stupid apprentice.

For many years after that, the hot spring did not see Ye Zhanyi again. First of all, there is a letter, saying that Brother Wen, my swordsmanship has advanced to another level, Brother Wen, I want to eat pancakes and fruits. Later, in the fifth year, the news was cut off. Although he was worried about the hot springs, he didn't look for it: he was angry and tried to be strong, although his martial arts did not make any progress, but in the past few years outside, he learned a lot of ways to open up sources and reduce expenditure, and came back to manage a barren mountain in a good way. The other few of his peers, the retreat of retreat, and the wandering of Yunyou, let him succeed as the head, and he was engaged to his younger sister, and he got married on an auspicious day next year.

It was at this point that the Demon Sect entered the Central Plains. Hot Springs heard that the leader of the Demon Sect was young and vigorous, and his swordsmanship was superb, and he fought all the way from Miaojiang to the Central Plains, and his sword raised his eyebrows. Emei sent the Qingcheng helmsman Xu Buyi to face the battle, but he asked the sect leader to stab him to death with a sword. Not only that, but the demon traitor also cut off the rudder flag and wrapped Xu Buyi's body and sent it to Emei.

Now it's a big deal. Famous factions have always taken face seriously, and there are two things to say. Now that your Demon Sect has killed the people of Emei and pulled out the banner of Emei, you are ignoring the entire Central Plains martial arts, which is unbearable or unbearable, fuck it.

Huashan took the lead and held a martial arts conference and discussed for three days. It is said that he spent two and a half days watching singing and dancing. But the process is not important, the important thing is that after the conference, the battle post flew to the hands of the demon sect leader like snowflakes, Emei's arrived first, then Wudang, Huashan and Kunlun followed, Shaolin - Shaolin and Wudang fought for a piece of land last month, and they didn't have the face to mix in martial arts affairs, so they didn't come. Further back, there are a bunch of small sects and martial arts families.

Hot Springs also sent one. Not for anything else, mainly to join in the fun and talk about it.

The leader of the Demon Sect was also very aggrieved, and wrote a letter of reply, saying that when he entered the Central Plains, he originally wanted to make a name for himself, and he didn't plan to do anything big. Those small sects couldn't beat him and told him to drive straight into Shuzhong, can you blame him? As for Emei, he and Xu Buyi had a fair duel, signed a life and death certificate, and in the last sword, he collected three points of strength and did not kill Xu Buyi, and he was already merciful. Who knew that Xu Buyi was very popular, got off the stage, cut off the rudder flag with a knife, and said that I have no shame to see this flag again, and after speaking, he will be menopausal, and he can't stop it.

The Central Plains Martial Arts naturally won't believe it. Only the hot spring read this reply, the more he looked at this tone, the more familiar it became, and at the end, the three big characters of Ye Zhanyi were written on the letter.

Miao Jiang, a swordsman, young and vigorous, strong in martial arts, he should have thought of it a long time ago. It is not easy to kill Xu angrily, it is really something that Ye Zhanyi can do, if he is replaced, he can't beat him, how can he make this kind of oolong.

He hurriedly called the disciple to come, and the disciple was also very helpless: Master, the battle post has been sent out for half a month, even if you fly, you can't chase it back.

Now the hot springs are sad. I am worried, and I am also worried about the clothes for Ye. How can these more than 40 battle posts be fought? The Demon Sect can fight a total of only one of them, and they have to finish a break as usual, ten years have passed, and this matter is not over.

Zhongyuan Wulin quickly solved this problem: one game in three days, until the fight is over. Although the righteous path wants to save face and not talk about it, this is actually a wheel war, and it is not so trying to see the dagger. In this way, Ye Zhanyi actually defeated the chief disciples of the younger generation of the four major factions in a row, and broke through a string of martial arts families.

Hot Springs was counting on these people in front of him to defeat Ye Zhanyi, so as not to entangle themselves, but he didn't expect them to be all straw bales. In addition to being depressed, he was also a little faintly proud: Look, this is my brother.

At the same time as he was proud, the position of the battle note signed Hot Springs on the list moved forward little by little, and finally, it moved to the first one.

Hot springs carried a knife to the stage.

He hadn't slept all night, and his feet were fluttering. Ye Zhanyi on the opposite side was in a worse state than him, with two dark circles under his eyes, bandages on his shoulders, his steps were vain, his breath was short, and only the posture of holding the sword was still upright and reverent. Anyone could tell that he was about to lose his breath. Even if he is undefeated today, he will lose sooner or later.

Ye Zhanyi looked at the hot spring and muttered, "Brother Wen." ”

Hot Spring hugged his fist: "Since you are on this stage today, everyone lives and dies." After speaking, he came out in a starting pose, which was still the posture that Lin He glanced at and shook his head and left.

Ye Zhanyi had no choice but to do it.

The fight was rather lackluster. In those five years, the two brothers had nothing to do, and they were both familiar with each other's moves, but the hot springs never won once. This time was no exception.

If he hadn't suddenly fitted and pounced on Ye Zhanyi's sword.

Even if he was exhausted, Ye Zhanyi's reaction was still faster than him, and his sword momentum was not exhausted, so he simply withdrew and retreated. Although this sword pierced the air, the strength couldn't be twisted, Ye Zhanyi couldn't hold back any longer, knelt on the ground, spit out a mouthful of blood, and when he looked up, the knife was already resting on his neck.

Holding the knife, the hot spring looked at him condescendingly, and said, "If it is not my race, its heart will be different." Ye Zhanyi, since you were defeated by me today, you must not enter the Central Plains again. ”

Ye Zhanyi looked at him blankly, and suddenly smiled: "Big brother, do you really want to win me so much, don't you want your life?" ”

The knife in the hot spring hand trembled. Ye Zhanyi stood up regardless of his injuries and said, "Okay! The elder brother has a life, and the younger brother dare not obey. If I step into the Central Plains again, I will not die well and expose my corpses to the wilderness! ”

Hot Springs suddenly found that he was very fluent in Mandarin and had no accent at all.

Ye Zhanyi raised the long sword in his hand, grabbed the blade, and with a stroke of internal force, the long sword broke in response. Blood flowed from his palm, and he threw the broken sword on the ground and brushed it away.

The Central Plains group of heroes rejoiced and praised him for his meritorious work in eliminating harm. After three days of celebration banquet, the hot spring returned to the room drunk, and the junior sister said goodbye without saying goodbye, leaving a word on the table: Brother Quan, I used to respect you as a hero and hero, and I will do it from now on.

The hot spring leaned on the table and closed his eyes, as if he heard the conversation of that night again.

The night before he played, he couldn't sleep and went out for a walk. The cold wind damply froze him and stamped his feet. With a final stomp of his foot, he finally made up his mind and removed the battle post. It's a shame to be ashamed, but he can't really do it if he swords against his brother. Of course, the world's heroes will spit on him, but the junior sister must be able to understand. Others, he doesn't care.

Just then, he heard voices coming from the room next to him. He remembered that this room was occupied by the head of Wudang, and now there were many people inside, and it sounded like some famous martial arts houses.

He was going to avoid it, but a name came to his ears, and he involuntarily stopped and hid under the window.

"The Central Plains must not leave the scourge of Ye Zhanyi."

"Yes, if you don't get rid of this thief, there will be great disaster in the future."

"When he loses, we will attack him in groups, if he does not promise not to enter the Central Plains from now on, that day will be his death."

The round bald head was reflected on the window paper, and the abbot of Shaolin's Zhicong finally came.

Hot springs have long understood that the so-called rivers and lakes are not things that can be traveled by martial arts and chivalry. You have to have connections, you have to be rich, and most importantly, you have to be able to act. If you don't know how to act, why don't so many people in this room dare to say that killing Ye Dipping clothes is not because he is a disaster for the rivers and lakes, but because he is a young man, and he will threaten their status in the future?

But he knew Ye Zhanyi. The boy was so mad that he would never look down at the sword on his neck. If he loses in the wheel war, he will definitely be full of dissatisfaction, how can he bear the humiliation and promise not to enter the Central Plains from now on?

Unless...... Unless it is a brother who has always respected him, he is forced to agree with affection and righteousness.

The hot spring opened its eyes, the wind and dew blew through the window screen, the white moon light was clear, and there was an empty room.

Since then, the hot spring has never seen Ye Zhanyi again.
