Chapter 8 Boiling sand into rice and passing the knife at night
Let's say that Li Qing, who slept in the inn, got up early in the morning and freshened up, and then went to knock on the door of Meng Yishan in the next room.
After a while, no one answered in the room, and Li Qing, who was a little worried about Meng Yishan's "sheep epilepsy" and died in the house, couldn't hide his martial arts, raised his hand and struck a blow, breaking the wooden bolt behind the door, and seeing that the house was empty, the window that Meng Yishan opened when he went out last night was still in place.
Yun Ao's room was also empty, and Li Qing wondered in his heart, "These two people didn't return overnight?" There we got there."
Some regret that he didn't go with him yesterday, Li Qing returned to the room and sat up, after a long time, the two still didn't return, the people in the inn came and went, and the outside business shouted, which made Qing'er's thoughts extremely troubled, "Those two haven't come back yet, do you want to go home?" ”
"No, can't go back! If you go back, you will be forced to get married! ”
Just when Li Qing'er's mood was fluctuating, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the room, and someone outside: "Gu Hunting, the three guests live here, and the small shop has always been law-abiding."
Li Qing'er panicked when she heard the "ancient head catcher".
After the door was opened, a handsome young man walked in, this person was dressed in white, holding a gold-painted folding fan in his hand, he looked very chic and extraordinary, but when he saw Li Qing'er in the room, his expression became as strange as swallowing a duck egg.
The man in white shouted at Li Qing, "Miss Qing'er! How did you end up here? ”
"Gu Zhensheng! How did you find it? ”
Nagu Zhensheng said: "I came out to handle the case and inspected this Yuelai Inn." ”
"Ah, Gu Da catches the head, what kind of big case, you have to work a master like you to personally check the store?"
Gu Zhensheng replied with a serious expression: "General Ma was assassinated, the city was closed for three days, and the army and the palace are sending people to investigate, and the government needs to solve the case quickly."
Li Qing'er just wanted to say, "If you can kill a master like Ma Zongbing, you must be a master with a lot of martial arts, that is what you can catch as a little catcher!" ”
Yes! That old man Yun Ao's martial arts are superb, could it be that the two of them did it? She was shocked.
Gu Zhensheng spoke: "Although Miss knows martial arts, but that assassin's martial arts are extremely high, and now the city is in chaos, Lord Li is very worried, so let's go home with me." ”
Li Qing's heart turned, took two steps forward, and smiled at Gu Zhensheng: "Okay, I'll go back with you."
She has a beautiful smile, indescribably good-looking, and looks a little embarrassed by the young and strong Gu Catcher.
Taking advantage of his distraction, Li Qing'er suddenly flicked the index finger of his right hand, and with a hiss, a strong finger wind slashed towards the big acupoint in Gu Zhensheng's chest.
Some stunned Gu Catcher couldn't have expected that Li Qing'er would suddenly make a move, but fortunately, the warrior's intuition was still there, and before the wind reached the body, he moved three feet horizontally and dangerously, avoiding the sneak attack.
"Wave" Gu Zhensheng's window paper behind him was pierced by the finger force, revealing an oval hole, Gu Zhutou sweated in his heart, although he had long heard that Miss Li had a martial arts, he didn't think that he would even "hit the hole in the air", if she practiced to the realm of "pointing out silently", today he was planted in Luoyang.
Li Qing missed a blow, the sneak attack failed, and he might not be the opponent of this jade-faced god in a real fight, and said angrily in his mouth: "The surname is Gu, let's go!" "I can only follow Gu Zhutou home.
Luoyang City, which had been noisy for a day, fell silent, and only He Lao Shangshu's bedroom in Shangshu's mansion was still lit.
Yun Ao meditated on the big bed in the room to heal his wounds, and Meng Yishan fell asleep on the table.
The concubine Cui Hong, who Meng Yishan saw when he broke the door before, was tied by a rope and stuffed under the bed.
Poor Lao Shangshu was stuffed by the unfilial nephew of the master of the village with the belly pocket of his concubine, and the thick hemp rope was tied like a dumpling in the Dragon Boat Festival, and was thrown aside at the foot of the wall.
No matter how He Shangshu resisted when the belly pocket entered his mouth, the owner of the village just said, "Grandpa has to sleep at night, what should you do if you old guy takes the opportunity to report to the official." ”
Yun Ao, who was meditating on the bed, suddenly coughed twice, waking Meng Yishan up from his dream, and when he saw Yun Ao, he vomited a large black and purple blood clot, and he couldn't stop panting there.
"Lao Yun, you're a bit serious like this, I'll ask the cook to cook some ginseng and chicken soup to drink." Yun Ao shook his hand and stopped the owner of the village who wanted to take advantage of the treatment of injuries and taste the taste of ginseng soup.
The lord of Meng Dazhai looked at Yun Ao very worriedly and said: "Old Yun, I often hear that when people are about to die, they can't eat anything!" You ......"
Yun Ao said angrily: "I am old and weak, and I am seriously injured, if I drink the ginseng soup that is big and replenished, it will not be an immediate death!" ”
"It's okay, I can't die, it's just that the sea of qi and Guan Yuan are all destroyed, I can't give birth to internal breath, and my martial arts are wasted!"
Meng Yishan has listened to Yun Ao's martial arts lectures these days, combined with the practice of boneless soft fist, and knows that the internal breath is generated from the dantian, and the twelve meridians in the body circulate in Zhou Tian, and once the dantian is destroyed, even the broken and then established magic of the boneless soft fist cannot be saved. “
Yun Ao said again: "After raising for a month, my external injury is expected to heal, and I don't know if I can survive to turn back to Miaojiang and pass on the knife technique!" If you die halfway, this king sword technique will become a perfect sound like that vulture fist! ”
Yun Ao stared at Meng Yishan fiercely for a while, and sighed: "The Panwang Sword is not passed on to outsiders, but the Ancestor Divine Sword cannot be passed on to itself. In case of accidents, I will teach you a full set of heart tips, if I don't have an accident, you will go to Miao Jiang in the future, and return this sword trick to my people. The dozens of boxes of dart silver were to be brought back with them. ”
Old Meng is overjoyed, this Wang Shen Knife is here!
Yun Ao supported the ground, holding a single knife from Lao Meng from the Shangshu Mansion, his eyes lit up when he picked up the knife, but immediately coughed again and again, and slowed down for a while, Yun Ao slowly used the single knife, all kinds of sealing and blocking, splitting, sweeping, pushing, and teasing, all of which were transported again, and finally said to Meng Yishan: "These moves are the basis of my lifelong knife skills, what can you see?" ”
The lord of the village shook his head and said, "I don't know the tricks. After thinking about it, he shouted angrily at Yun Ao: "Okay, Lao Yun, use these rotten tricks to prevaricate Lao Tzu, why don't you pass on those good tricks that seem to be lightning and thunder when you and Ma Xiaobing are fighting for your life?" You are not righteous enough, in vain I will carry you back from the horse mansion! ”
Yun Ao couldn't cry or laugh at this guy who was about to collect the account immediately to save people's lives, sat on the chair and rested for a long time, Fang said: "You have to look down on these tricks, the sword skills have to be practiced to score exactly the same, it takes ten years, so that the harmony changes, it takes another ten years, and twenty years of hard study can be said to be successful." ”
"You see that the knife method of my war horse civilization is these styles, all the knife methods in the world are composed of these knife gestures, a split, a pry, a sweep, three styles are a move in a row, and it is another move to perform in reverse order, take these three formulas, the strength of the first type of direct chopping is not real, and the knife can be changed to a sweep halfway, these three cycles, dozens of moves can be changed, the basic knife style is twenty-three, how many moves do you say to transform?"
The master of the village said: "This is too many to count!" ”
Seeing that he was listening carefully, Old Man Yun said with a strong spirit: "The knife method is the method of transporting the knife, and the ancestors of each knife method choose several formulas that are suitable for themselves, and synthesize the knife method according to their own understanding. The Panwang knife is also changed from the seven basic frame types! ”
Meng Yishan slapped his thigh and said, "Ah, I'll pick up a few frames, and according to my old Meng's idea, it is also a knife technique, it is called a mountain chopping knife, it sounds magnificent." ”
Looking at this ancestor Meng who created his own "mountain chopping knife method", Yun Ao smiled with relief: "Yes, that's the truth." ”
"Panwang knife is profound and profound, subtle changes also need to be exerted with strong internal force, you have no foundation, just like cooking rice with sand, sand is not rice, after all, it is not cooked, this short month, you just study hard all night and can't learn the magic knife, you memorize the knife trick, and then comprehend it in the future when you fight for life and death!"
Yun Ao wanted to pass on the basic knife skills, so he asked the master of Dazhai to hold the knife in his hand, put on a posture that was not allowed to move, the arm holding the knife was held flat in front, the arm was not shaking, and the knife was swung a thousand times purely with wrist strength.
After a while, Meng Yishan was mixed with sweat, his feet were a little trembling, and the knife style was a little scattered, Yun Ao was very strict about the scale of wielding the knife, and he could only shake out three inches, saying that it was because he could not receive it if he waved it big, three inches was just right, and the master of the village was slightly out of shape, and Yun Ao waved it down with an ear scraper, and the master of the village was splashed with Venus.
Seeing Yun Ao coughing while urging him to practice the knife, such a strong hand had fallen to such a point, and his heart was a little unbearable, which made Meng Yishan survive it, I don't know how long it took, his arms were completely numb, and his legs were like lead, and he finally heard Yun Ao's voice: "Okay, this is the end of today." ”
When there was a loud sound, the owner of the village threw away the single knife, and the big character collapsed on the ground.
Meng Yishan, who wanted to sleep, always felt that something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't say why. “
I heard Yun Ao say to him: "You have practiced the Boneless Soft Fist, go to sleep!" ”
The bitter Dazhai master waited for the boneless soft boxing to practice, and there was no place in the body that was not sad, and he was in pain for half the night before falling asleep.
The next morning, Meng Yishan was woken up by Yun Ao, and Lao Shangshu was also untied and sat aside.
Yun Ao said to Meng Yishan: "Early morning is the best time to practice qi, after you finish the soft fist heart method, you will practice the knife with me." ”
Meng Yishan practiced again this time, and felt that it was not as unbearable as before, and the meridians in his body continued to expand and contract, so that some gradually adapted to the pain of stretching, and the internal breath gradually thickened, not as painful as the first practice.
After the internal practice, under the supervision of Yun Ao, he practiced a thousand swords, and when he finished, Yun Ao sighed: "You have average qualifications, but you are very tough, you should have practiced martial arts a long time ago." ”
After breakfast, the newly-dressed master of the village was in good spirits, and said to He Laoshangshu: "Uncle, where is this prefect's yamen, I will go to visit Master Li." ”
Lao Shangshu was surprised: "You really want to go?" ”
The master of Dazhai said in his heart: "Go to the yamen and look at the wind." He smiled and said: "Why don't you go, this Master Li is very knowledgeable, and he appreciates my old Meng, so he wants to get acquainted." ”
Lao Shangshu, who is difficult to protect himself, can't manage so much, although Yun Ao's internal strength is wasted, it is not a problem to watch the old man He who is old and frail. The owner of the village was very relieved, and asked someone to prepare a mount, a fresh coat and a horse, and drove straight to the prefect's yamen.
When he got off the horse at the mansion, he said that he was the nephew of He Shangshu. The messenger on duty dared to slack off, and immediately reported it.
Meng Yishan was standing and waiting for someone, when he saw more than ten people walking out of the main hall of the mansion, the first one was a young man in white, followed by all soapy clothes.
Yesterday took Miss Li Qing back to the ancient head of the house, and then went to investigate the bloody case of Mafu, the scene has the Fang Tian halberd of Ma Wenming, and two knives, a broken Miao Jiang scimitar, one is a single knife that can be bought everywhere on the street, two clues to check, the big catcher is very surprised, according to the blacksmith who hit the single knife, it was bought by a fierce man with a scar on his face, according to the scimitar and check the alien characters who recently entered the city, the two will go to one place, it is actually the Yuelai stack where Li Qing lived yesterday.
The hotel registration book wrote Shanxi Scar Six, Guizhou Yunao, a maidservant, Gu Zhutou asked the innkeeper about the shape of the two people, "old man of different races", "Scar Han" The one who stabbed the horse commander must be these two thieves, but he was shocked how Miss Qing'er could be with these two people, and he was very puzzled.
How to ask when I went back, Li Qing didn't say anything, I was annoyed to ask, Miss Li put her face down, and said, "Gu Zhensheng, you don't do anything with the food and salary of the imperial court, and you don't notice the murderer, and you come to be embarrassed for me, a weak woman."
Choked the ancient catcher was speechless, sulking for a night, and early this morning he led a few capable subordinates to go out to investigate the case, and just came out of the door and bumped into Meng Yishan standing in front of the house.
Seeing the appearance of the lord of the village, Gu Zhutou was shocked, "Scar man? ”
Meng Dazhai saw that this little white face with jade face and red lips was looking at him, and his heart was also a pang, and the jade face was caught!
In order to hide his weakness, Lao Meng scolded the chief catcher: "Look at it, you little rabbit." ”
Such a vicious curse made Gu Zhutou's handsome face turn red, and he glared at Meng Yishan angrily and was about to make a move.
But he was stopped by his subordinates, who glanced at Gu Zhensheng and said to Meng Yishan.
Gu Zhensheng also had some scruples in his heart at first glance, the scar-faced man was covered in a purple robe, with a jade belt around his waist, and he looked very powerful and noble, and that mount was a BMW "Jade Flower Skull" that was difficult to buy
Gu Zhutou, who has been in officialdom for a long time, has learned to be tactful, "Don't be impulsive, this person looks quite promising." ”
At this moment, because of his respect for Lao Shangshu, and in order to show his courtesy to Corporal Lixian, Governor Li personally greeted him.
The prefect Li Chongyi stepped forward and grabbed Meng Yishan's hand very enthusiastically, and laughed: "The nephew is really a believer, he should have gone down yesterday, and he will arrive today, hurry up and enter the mansion." ”
When the prefect turned his head to look at Gu Zhensheng, his face sank, and he ordered: "Gu Zhutou, this Mafu bloody case, the above is very urgent, I, Li, have a big responsibility, I can't sleep, I don't know the taste of food, but you are still idle at the yamen, don't go to investigate the case quickly." ”
As soon as Master Li took office, he looked at the general arrest promoted by his predecessor, which was very eye-catching.
This chief catcher has two major shortcomings, the first is the nephew of the former prefect, and the second is arrogance, deducing that he is in civilian clothes to investigate the case, and he shakes the fan in white all day long, and he has no physique at all, as if he still has thoughts about his daughter. Master Li had a very bad impression of him, and if he hadn't been a good hand at solving cases, he would have been removed long ago.
Gu Zhutou, who was scolded by Master Li for being very shameless, took out the horses with a group of tolerances, got on the horse and left, and shook the horsewhip as he left, and he was very angry in his heart.
Governor Li brought Meng Yishan into the flower hall in the mansion and said to his subordinates: "Set up the wine, and drink it with Meng Shi's nephew today." ”
