Chapter 3 The City That Never Sleeps in the West
It is said that Lin Feng worshiped Master Qinglong, and wanted to leave the valley as soon as possible, but unexpectedly, a kind of desolate laughter spread all over the valley bottom, eerie, terrifying, and creepy, Lin Feng looked around, but only heard his voice, but did not see his person!
"Where did the hairy boy come from, he dared to break into the Orchid Valley!" As if in a dream, a dark shadow flashed through the valley......
"In Xia Lin Feng, if you are presumptuous, please forgive me!"
"If you fall into the bottom of the orchid valley, you will not die, and if you are immersed in the poison of a hundred flowers, you are the second person! I, Ye Rumeng, have been in retreat for seven years, and I didn't expect that many old people have been gone, and a new person has been added, which is really providential, hahahaha......"
"It turned out to be the Lord of the Orchid Valley, and he was polite below, but I don't know who the Lord of the Leaf Valley said first......" Lin Feng said slightly.
"That's the first...... He's dead......"
"Boy, since you are here, this is your grave in the future, this abyss, you can't get out of it anyway, just wait for death with peace of mind, hahahaha......"
In the wind, a woman in black floated up, seeing that her shirt was like frost, her hair was like ink, and her body was proud, but it was charming!
"The lord of this valley is unwilling to accompany him, so he will leave!" After that, the figure jumped a thousand feet and disappeared without a trace in an instant......
Leave this matter aside for the time being......
Chapter 3 The City That Never Sleeps in the West
Let's listen to the rain building!
This is the largest restaurant west of the middle capital! Over the years, listen to the rain floor guests full of doors, the traffic in front of the door, the pedestrian stream is endless, the guests who come here, half of them are for drinking, the other half is to listen to books, as the name suggests - listen to the rain building! No, the storyteller is an old man in a sixtieth century, known as "Thousands of Miles of Voice", at this time, he was already sitting on the stage and relished: "It is said that this woman has gone through a lot of hardships, and finally killed the hero with a divine iron and avenged her mother-in-law......"
"Ah, dead...... No way? ”
"May I ask Qianli Chuanyin, what is the name of the woman?"
There was a commotion in the audience, and the voices of discussion came and went!
"Qianli Chuanyin" didn't answer, he didn't hurry to pick up the teacup and drink the tea.
"Oh, Qianli Chuanyin, you should say it quickly, what's the name of that woman?"
"Qianli Chuanyin" put down the teacup and said with a smile: "Shh, this can't be said, the secret of heaven must not be leaked!"
"Okay, okay, that's all for today, let's all drink, let's talk about it tomorrow, talk about it again, talk about it again, talk about it......"
"Hey, don't worry, the story isn't over yet...... someone is yelling!
"Demon Four, don't drink, we should also go, if we go back late, the Dharma King will be angry again!"
"Let's go, let's go!" The four little devils in armor were drunk like mud, and they helped each other to mount their horses and go all the way to the west!
Let's say that there is a majestic city more than 200 miles west of the rain tower, which is named: the city that never sleeps in the west, also known as the "magic capital city"!
The city gate is cast by bronze, mighty and majestic, golden and brilliant, merchants gather outside the city, the mansion shops are lined up, the city is brightly lit, the city lord wind multiplies the Dharma King day and night to retreat and practice, so go on, a magnificent city is shrouded in the vast dust and smoke day and night, the city is sometimes golden and ten thousand roads, the blue waves are thousands, sometimes the sky is dark, the sun and the moon are not light!
As the sun set, a red horse galloped past the Demon Capital City, followed by two black horses!
"Congratulations to the Dharma King, the magic has been completed, and the Dharma King is mighty!" On the golden hall, a group of little devils came to pay respectful to them, but when they saw that the King of the Wind Multiplier was closing his eyes slightly, his demeanor was calm, as if a god had descended to earth, and a red robe fell in the wind, and he was indescribably arrogant.
"Are they all here?" The demon asked!
"Yes, the little devils are here!"
The Dharma King said silently: "Victory over heaven and earth, victory over ghosts and gods, battle Buddha and demons, battle immortal emperors, destroy the stars and moons, destroy the heavens, law is the realm, demons are kings, the supreme in the world I am the madest!" ”
As a result, more than 1,000 disciples in the city shouted in unison: "Win the heaven and earth, defeat the ghosts and gods, fight the Buddha and demons, and fight the immortal emperor......"
The Dharma King slowly raised his right hand, waved hard, a thousand catties, two zhang high gold and bronze sacred cow flew in the air, just arrived in the center of the main hall, the Dharma King's right hand sank, the gold and bronze sacred cow fell to the ground steadily, such divine power, all the disciples were stunned, and praised again and again: "The divine power of the Dharma King, the world is invincible!" The Dharma King smiled slightly, and suddenly his face sank again, and said, "Golden Body Archmage, how is the matter you inquiring?" I saw a burly god step forward and praised: "The Dharma King, it is the wish of the heavens, the Jianghu Yue has died in the Orchid Valley, Ye Rumeng died in Huangquan, the Dharma King will dominate the world, just around the corner!" ”
"Oh? Is all this true? ”
The mage said: "The daughter of Rouyi, the general of the Great Empire, is tender, and she killed Jianghuyue with her own hands!" And Ye Rumeng took the blame for himself, and he died of poison! After hearing this, the Dharma King laughed wildly: "Hahahaha, in this whole world, who dares to compete with this king!" ”
All of a sudden, the disciples shouted, "The Supreme King, there is no rivalry!" ”
The Dharma King said: "Rui Yang's sword is cast by a thousand-year-old artifact, the Orchid Valley is a hundred flowers poisonous, the rivers and lakes fall into the Orchid Valley, it has already been poisonous, even if he has a thousand lives, ten thousand galls, he will definitely die, all the disciples listen to the order, on the night of the full moon of this month, the king will drive in person, and level the Orchid Valley in one fell swoop!"
"Yes, the King of the Law is wise!" The little devils responded in unison!
"Golden Body Archmage, I don't know the whereabouts of Rui Yang's sword?" His Holiness suddenly asked!
"This ......" the mage hurriedly knelt down and said, "The Dharma King is angry, this mage is useless, he has not obtained the Ruiyang Sword!"
"What? Just a Rui Yang sword, and this king wants to go out in person? ”
"Please give this Master another chance, I will definitely live up to expectations!"
"The Dharma King is angry, my Demon Fourth has already found out the whereabouts of that woman, and the little demon is willing to accompany the mage to retrieve the Rui Yang Sword!"
"Don't let this king down, you all stand down!" With a wave of his hand, the little devils retreated!
"Mother-in-law Qiuyu, Rou'er killed Jianghuyue and avenged you, you can rest in peace!"
In front of the Xianyin Temple, a woman worships the statue three times and worships three times, then walks slowly along the two hundred stone steps, about 100 steps ahead, a striking red "Buddha" word is carved on the boulder vigorously, on both sides of the stone steps, there are two floors - a bell in the east building, a drum in the west building, at this time, the sound of the dusk drum is melodious and floating!
In front of the huge Shakyamuni Buddha, there are two people standing - a woman, a person, the Taoist said: "Amitabha, life is a life, grass and trees are autumn, little donor, you and I have a fate, everything comes with fate, everything goes with fate, there is no hope for this life, there is no hope for the next life!" The woman said: "The little girl is tender, walk thousands of miles to see Master Mochizuki, and I hope to forgive me!" ”
"Amitabha, little benefactor, looking at the moon is polite." Tenderness said: "Master Mochizuki, the little girl has a thousand knots in her heart, and I hope that the master will make one or two." ”
The master clasped his hands together and said silently: "The sea of suffering is boundless, little benefactor, please go back." ”
Tenderness said blankly: "Master, where do I want to go back?" ”
The master said: "Where you come from, go wherever you go!" ”
"Tenderness and dullness, please educate the master."
The master said affectionately: "One goes for a thousand miles, and the other goes forever!" Little donor, cherish all the way! ”
Tenderness said: "Master Mochizuki, Tenderness came today, just for one person, Tenderness doesn't know what he did wrong, please enlighten the master." The master said, "Amitabha, everything is cause and effect!" ”
"Am I not wrong that I killed someone?"
"You're not wrong!"
"But the moment I drew my sword, I hesitated!" The master said: "The moon in the water and the flowers in the mirror are all illusions!" You know that? ”
Tenderness and joy: "I understand, thank you Master Mochizuki, thank you for your tenderness, Master cherishes it!"
"Little donor, cherish!"
Tenderly walked down the stone stairs, and heard the master say: "I have worried about hurting the Brahman, and I am afraid that I will not fall into the city when I enter the mountain, and I will have the perfect law in the world, and I will live up to it!"
Walk out of Lingyin Temple, and then turn two mountains is the way down the mountain, tenderness since childhood with the autumn language mother-in-law in the thousand mountains to practice martial arts, in the blink of an eye eight years have passed, now she is eighteen years old, the same age as flowers, but she can't be happy: what kind of deep hatred between the autumn language mother-in-law and the rivers and lakes, she doesn't know!
Some things, just let it pass, like the wind sweeping away the fallen leaves, stepping on the snow without a trace......
The smoky thousand mountains, the layers of the forest are dyed, the maple leaves are drunk red, as if they are welcoming the girl from afar, through the forest, the huge cyan stone pillar reflects four white characters: Thousand mountains and twilight snow!
Tender eyes lit up: It's good, after this place, it is the land of the two countries!
I remember that eight years ago, her father sent her here, pointed to the boundless land in front of her and said: "Rou'er, look, this is the Moon Country, we are as friendly as brothers and sisters, after a few years, when I pacify the northern and southern vassal states, the Central Plains is peaceful, and there is no killing, I will come back!" ”
Before parting, her father put a cyan token on her hand and said, "Rou'er, this is our entry token for the country, you keep it and learn martial arts, I will wait for you here!" ”
It's been eight years now, and my father hasn't come after all, is he okay? Are the people of the two countries well?
Tenderness took out the token from the pocket, and the center of the token was engraved with the word "沔", eight years later, but it is still shining!
After a short rest, she walked down a trail and walked for nearly an hour, and a row of tall walls could be faintly seen in the distance, and I heard from my father that this was once the livestock breeding place of the Moon Country, and there were herds of cattle, sheep, and horses for the people to produce! But now, there is nothing here except the tall walls, a few pale red gates are locked, she jumped lightly, and the people have arrived in the inner courtyard, only to see that the weeds are overgrown inside, the abandoned stables, and countless dilapidated houses, as if no one has lived in them for many years, could it be that the economic conditions of the Moon Country have improved, and the people here have migrated away? Are they all living happily ever after?
Tenderness was pondering, and suddenly the sound of horses' hooves came from a distance, and I saw two white horses jumping down two people, both dressed in black, one of them said outside the wall: "Brother, this is it, I'll go in, you guard outside, wait for my whistle for a while!" ”
"Well, don't worry, boss, you have to look carefully!" Another humane.
Hearing a "squeak" of the door, a dark shadow flashed in, behind a dilapidated room, through the gap in the wall, tenderly saw a burly man with a large shovel in his hand, counting "one, two, three, four...... next to the stable, and when he walked to the fourth stable and stopped, and counted "one, two, three...... three steps in front of him, and the man in black stopped.
"That's right, it should be here!" So, he picked up a big shovel and shoveled up the soil on the ground, and after a while, he shoveled out a cave, removed the surface layer of soil, only to hear the shovel make a "clang" sound, the man in black squatted down, and picked up a cyan stone brick, he hurriedly put his hands into the cave, and suddenly his face burst with joy: "Hahahaha, what a baby!"
The man said to himself: "If such a treasure is exchanged for silver, I am afraid that it will not be used up for a lifetime!" He picked up a pair of shiny gold bracelets, took out a piece of silk from his bosom and wrapped it, then carefully hid it in his bosom, and walked towards the inner room, about three paces away, he crawled towards the pillar at the head of the wall, and found a sack of things on the beam, and said with joy: "It's all here, not bad!" So he turned over and whistled at the outside of the courtyard, and the man in black outside the courtyard immediately flashed in: "Boss, have you found it?" ”
"Well, it's all here, a lot!" He put the bag in front of him: "Let's divide it here again, so we can go back and explain to my daughter-in-law!" He picked up a bronze jade bowl from his bag and said, "This is a priceless treasure, brother, you take it first!" The elder brother carefully took the jade bowl and put it in the palm of his hand to look at it carefully, and in an instant, the jade bowl was like a verdant gem, and like a bright star left in the grass, so he couldn't put it down! "We will have half of this treasure in each pocket, and no one will suffer!" The Boss said.
Tenderness thought to herself: Oh, it turns out that these two people are here to share the spoils, no wonder they are so careful, and they don't know where so many treasures come from? I'd rather ask!
So he shouted, "Oh, what a lot of treasures, the two brothers are really rich!"
"Who, who's talking?"
The two of them tightened their bags in a panic and looked around!
"The baby hasn't finished yet, you continue to divide it, I'll also come over to join in the fun, feast your eyes!"
Behind the broken house, he walked out with a tender smile, and the two looked at it and laughed.
"Oh, when did the little beauty fall from the sky, hiding in the house alone, and not coming out early, you see that the uncle is scared!" The boss said with a hippie smile.
"The luck of the brothers is good today, the gold and silver treasures and the little beauty, there is no less, you see that she looks like a watery and smart, it is better to take it away again, it will definitely be sold for a good price, hahahaha!"
The two of them talked and laughed, so uncomfortable!
"What kind of joke are the two eldest brothers, how much silver can I sell for a little girl, but the treasure in the arms of this eldest brother is a priceless treasure!" She pointed to the burly man and smiled!
"What priceless? You can't talk nonsense! The man asked rhetorically.
"Little brother, as the saying goes, there are difficulties and blessings, this big brother of yours is really not interesting, he hides the treasure privately, but he refuses to share it with you, hehehehe......"
"Don't listen to her nonsense, wait for me to go up and shut her mouth!"
The boss was furious, and he said viciously: "Little beauty, now the uncle will come to clean you up!" ”
After that, he stretched out his arms and threw himself towards tenderness, but before the person got up, his feet slipped, and a "vicious dog pounced" fell to the ground! He was unwilling to give up, his feet kicked up hard, the whole person stood up, raised his hands with teeth and claws towards the tender shoulder, the moment the hand reached the shoulder, the tender upper body flashed suddenly, a trace of long hair slipped leisurely from his fingers, the boss didn't grasp anything, tenderness borrowed strength to return the force, the long sword lightly touched his waist, the boss's body tilted instantly, and hit the doorpost, he hurriedly wanted to get up with both palms, only to hear the sound of "bang", a pair of gold bracelets rolled to the ground! It's too late for him to cover up! "Okay, boss, the gold bracelet was really hidden by you!" After that, the elder brother went to grab the gold bracelet, and the two fought!
Seeing this, Tenderness thought: These two men only have money in their hearts, as the saying goes-people die for money, birds die for food, don't they understand? If I don't kill them, let them kill each other!
Tenderness said: "Money is something outside the body, I don't want this ill-gotten gain!" So he jumped up, and several somersaults came out of the courtyard wall, only to see two horses waiting quietly for its owner, so he stepped forward and patted the horse's back gently, and said, "The horse is obedient, give me a ride!" So she jumped on her horse and galloped away!
This hundreds of miles of the Moon Kingdom City and the surrounding mountains are closely linked, a long river in the city is like a ribbon running through the east and west sides, it is conceivable that the Moon Country has convenient transportation, dense waterways, and has been a place where soldiers must fight since ancient times!
Besides, the tenderness rode on the horse, less than half a day to come to the city of the moon country, this city, the city gate faces south, the door body is cast in bronze, about ten zhang high, there is a high and thick fortress on both sides of the door, the fortress is densely connected by the city wall, solid as gold, indestructible!
The soldiers at the entrance of the city tower were heavily guarded, and the people had to check the Yueguo token when they entered and exited the city gate. Seeing this, Tenderness hurriedly dismounted, she looked back into the distance, not far from the city gate, there was an inn, the store was crowded with people, but the business was prosperous! Look at the roof again, the colorful flags are fluttering, and a flag reflects a striking "moon" character waving in the wind! "It's a good place, I'll go find out!" Tenderly muttered to herself.
"Horse, are you hungry?" She patted the horse's belly, and found a bulging bag of things under the saddle, so she took it and opened it, and it was actually white silver! "Yes, yes, the horses treat me well!" She checked the silver in the bag with her hand: "The people in this world are panicked, all of them are a few taels of broken silver, but this broken silver a few taels can solve all kinds of customs in the world, hehe, you can have a good meal today!" ”
She entered the store, the room was full of guests, but she saw that there was an empty seat in the innermost, so she stepped forward and sat down, there were already a few people sitting at the table, and a strong smell of wine came to her face!
"Oh, what a handsome little beauty, where are you from?"
"Quick, hurry up and have a few drinks with the soldiers!" Tenderness looked at it, the man was drunk, the man next to him was pointing at her and shouting, tenderly bowed his head, saw a man hanging a card around his waist, and then took a closer look, a "month" word came into view, this is the Yueguo entry and exit token, she smiled at the man, sat next to the side, the man said: "Little beauty, come, drink with me!" Tenderly smiled: "A few officials, don't go to guard the frontier at a good time, what are you drinking here drinking?"
When the man heard this, he smiled bitterly and said: "Beauty, don't you know, our Moon Kingdom defeated the Chu Kingdom, and the kings of the Chu Kingdom were all arrested, and they were executed three days later, we are happy!" When I heard the tenderness, I didn't feel a pain in my heart, is this true? But she still smiled and said: "Congratulations to all the officials for being promoted and making a fortune, but I don't know where the monarch is?" ”
"Beauty, why do you ask so much? That's the dead one, leave him alone, come, drink, drink! Tenderness pointed to the wine jug on the table and said to the shopkeeper: "Little Er, add wine." "A hand is in the man's waist!
"Aren't the Moon Country and the Chu Country very friendly? Why go to war?" Tenderness asked.
The other man tilted his head and replied, "What friendliness?" We have laid a net in the moon country, just waiting to catch all the people of the country! ”
"Third brother, don't say more, you've drunk too much......"
"What drank too much, I didn't get drunk, if it weren't for the hard resistance of the general of the country, the country would have been destroyed by us a long time ago!"
Why, why war! What about my father? Is he okay now?
There is nowhere to answer all kinds of questions in her heart, her heart is like a knife! So, she raised her glass and drank it all, the wine, not not to drink, but when it is time to drink, she must drink it! Revenge, it's not that you don't take revenge, it's just that when you should report it, you must repay it!
