Chapter 52: The Past of Yanmen Pass
When the donkey rider saw the comer, he froze in place.
Qiao Feng looked at this person and said respectfully: "It turned out that Master Zhiguang of Tiantai Mountain was here. ”
"The beggar helped Elder Xu, and Judge Taishan jointly voted for each other, how dare the old man not come." Zhiguang explained a little, turned his head to the donkey rider, "The big mistake is made, and it is in vain to escape." Sin, sin. ”
Xu Chongxiao, Shan Zheng, and Tan Gong Tan Po and others stepped forward together to clasp their fists and salute, "Master." ”
Qiao Feng thought to himself, it turned out that Master Zhiguang was also invited by these people, but Master Zhiguang was highly respected, so he should not participate in the conspiracy to frame him, and he felt a little at ease.
The donkey rider interjected: "The matter of Yanmen Guanchao Stone Valley, Monk Zhiguang also has a share!" You ask him, you ask him, I don't know! After that, he hid behind Tan Po, it seems that only Tan Po can make him feel a little calm.
Zhiguang's expression was strange, as if he was excited, fearful, and mixed with a trace of misery, but in the end, he turned into compassion and pity, and sighed: "The killing is too heavy, and this matter is worthy of words." Dear donors, the Battle of Rocky Valley is a thing of the past 30 years ago, so why bring it up again today? ”
Xu Chongxiao stepped forward and said: "It's just that because of a major change in this gang, a letter involving this matter was taken out, so I had to find the source." As he spoke, he handed the letter over.
Zhiguang took the letter, read it again, read it again, shook his head and sighed, "The past is gone, according to the old man's opinion, it is better to destroy this letter and erase the traces." ”
Xu Chongxiao retorted when he heard this, "But the deputy gang leader died tragically, if he is not investigated, it will be difficult to settle the grievances, and the gang may be in danger of collapse." ”
Zhiguang seemed to move, but he still hesitated.
At this time, Mrs. Ma stood up and said: "The first husband has been wronged, and I hope that the master will uphold justice." ”
"Okay." Seeing this, Zhiguang could only nod, and then said, "Lao Gao has done something wrong in his life, and now there is no need to hide it." ”
The donkey rider defended: "Master, we were dedicated to the country and the people back then, and it can't be said to be a wrong thing." ”
Zhiguang shook his head and said: "Wrong is wrong, why deceive yourself." ”
Looking up at the sunset that was about to set, he turned to face everyone, "Thirty years ago, the Central Plains Haojie received an astonishing news that a large number of Khitan warriors from one in a hundred miles were coming to steal the seventy-two Shaolin stunts to train soldiers. At that time, the hot-blooded people in the martial arts elected a leading brother to lead the heroes and go to the Yanmen Pass to prevent the Khitan warriors from entering the pass. ”
Everyone in the apricot grove exclaimed softly, and they were all enthusiastic, and they hated to participate in it and defend their families and the country.
Qiao Feng was also aroused by Zhiguang's words and felt generous in his heart, "Master, this bloody battle must be very fierce. ”
Shaking his head and sighing, Zhiguang was noncommittal to Qiao Feng's words, "It's really unbearable." At that time, there were a total of 21 of us, led by the leading brother, rushed to the rocky valley outside the Yanmen Pass. ”
Qiao Feng saw that Zhiguang was in a low mood, and persuaded: "Master don't be sad, the confrontation between the two countries, as the so-called soldiers are not tired of cheating, is also a helpless move." Master, please continue. ”
Zhiguang's mood was still low, but he continued to speak, "When the Khitans approached, the leading brother let out a long howl, and everyone's hidden weapons were all shot out." At that time, those Khitans were in chaos, and immediately twelve people died in ambush. At this time, I had counted clearly, there were nineteen Khitan warriors, and the rest were only seven, and I waited for a rush up, and killed all seven of them in a moment, and not a single one of them escaped. ”
Hearing this, some people in the group of beggars already applauded and applauded.
But Qiao Feng, Duan Yu, Bao Wei and others heard that something was wrong, and felt strange, since they were all Khitan warriors who were chosen by thousands of people, how could they be so bad, and they would all be destroyed in a moment.
I heard Zhiguang continue: "At that time, although we were happy, we were also very suspicious, these Khitans were not very good, and they were almost vulnerable. Before he could figure it out, two more horses galloped, a man and a woman, dressed luxuriously. The woman was carrying a baby in her arms, apparently a teenage couple. ”
"When the two men saw us, their faces were astonished, and when they saw the corpse on the ground, the man's expression immediately became fierce, and he asked us. But the language barrier doesn't know what he's saying. At this time, the third brother of the Iron Tower Fang Daxiong Fang had already made a move, but he was restrained by the man's move, and he threw the person with a stick on the side of the road, and said something in his mouth. ”
"Seeing that this person's kung fu is extremely high, I don't doubt him, and I rushed up, bullying the widow with the crowd, thinking of killing one by one. Unexpectedly, the woman did not know martial arts at all, and died in an instant. And the man was entangled by us, and at first he made several moves, but he only grabbed our blades, and did not hurt anyone. But as soon as his wife died, her eyes turned red and her expression was terrifying. At that time, when I saw his gaze, I couldn't help but be frightened and didn't dare to step forward. ”
The donkey rider's voice suddenly sounded, "That's not your fault, that's not your ......"
This person spoke before, and there was always a feeling of indifference in his tone, but these two sentences were deep in grief and guilt.
Zhiguang looked at the donkey rider, and his voice was a little lower, "That person is only a killer at this time, rushing left and right, like a ghost, and everyone sacrifices their lives to fight, and they are also invincible." I was struck away by the man's palm, hung on the tree and couldn't move, and I didn't know where I was, just watching my brothers being killed by the man one by one. In the end, the man committed rape and rape the enemy, so he ran to the woman's corpse, and wept bitterly, crying so bitterly that I couldn't help but feel sad in my heart, and I only felt that the grief was not shallower than that of us Han people. ”
The donkey rider said coldly: "What's so strange about that, the Liao people are also people, and the relationship between parents and children is not as good as that of the Han people." ”
Immediately, a beggar jumped out, "Liao dog is ferocious and tyrannical, better than poisonous snakes and beasts, how can it be compared with my Han people." ”
The donkey rider just sneered and ignored it.
"The Liao man cried for a long time, put the baby's body in his mother's arms, walked up to the eldest brother in the lead, and scolded loudly." Zhiguang's deep voice continued to tell the situation of the year, his expression was dark and uncertain, "The eldest brother and the Wang gang leader were restrained in the acupoint, and the others were completely dead, I thought that the man would win a big victory, and he would definitely take advantage of the victory, but I didn't expect that the man picked up a short knife and carved words on the stone wall." It was dark, so far away, I couldn't see what he had written. ”
"Ha," the donkey rider sneered, "that's Khitan script, you just see it, and you don't know it." ”
"Yes, I don't know if I see it." Zhiguang was not discouraged by ridicule, and said calmly: "The man carved for a while, suddenly threw down the short knife, leaned over and picked up the bodies of his wife and children, turned around and jumped off the cliff. ”
When everyone heard this, they couldn't believe it, and no one expected that there would be such a change.
Regardless of everyone's surprise, Zhiguang Wu said to himself: "Just as the man jumped off the cliff, suddenly the baby's cry sounded, and the Khitan man threw the baby up with extremely accurate methods, and it landed on the belly of the Wang gang leader, and survived. Then I saw someone get up from the pile of dead bodies and run away. ”
The donkey rider's face changed, and finally he stood up and shouted, "The one who ran away is me!" The cowardly behavior of the day can never be let go! Since then, he has no face in the rivers and lakes, and has become a walking corpse, today he is called Zhao Qiansun, and tomorrow he will be called Zhang Huanghe! ”
Seeing that the donkey rider 'Zhao Qiansun' looked crazy, Zhiguang shook his head, and he didn't know where to persuade him, but he also felt the same in his heart, and couldn't help but feel a little depressed, and coughed.
Qiao Feng said: "Master, you might as well take a rest first." ”
Waving his hand, Zhiguang sat on a piece of bluestone with Qiao Feng's support, "That day, after the old man recovered a little strength, he slowly climbed down the big tree, and with great effort, he finally unlocked the acupoint of the leading brother and the Wang gang leader. We examined the bodies first, and there were no survivors except the three of us. ”
"We couldn't understand the words carved by the Khitan people, so we smeared the blood on the stone wall on the ground, and then rubbed it down with a white cloth, and asked those Han people who could understand the Khitan to interpret it. After we read the translation, it was really unbelievable, but the Khitan people had already decided to commit suicide, so how could they deliberately lie. ”
"If the truth is like this, not only did the seventeen brothers die unjustly, but those Khitan people are also innocently affected, and as for the Khitan couple, we are extremely sorry for them."
The beggars were anxious to know the meaning of the words on the stone wall, but they didn't see Zhiguang elaborate, and some of the quick-tempered people asked about the contents.
"What are those words?"
"Why did you die unjustly?"
"Why are you sorry for them?"
Involving the reputation of others, Zhiguang had to conceal it, and accused: "Friends, what we have done is indeed a big mistake, and we have no shame on others. I'm a nobody, it's nothing, but what is the status of the leading brother and the Wang gang leader, not to mention that the Wang gang leader has passed away, I really can't say it clearly, so as not to damage the reputation of the two. ”
The former leader of the beggar gang Wang has a great reputation, and everyone in the gang is kind, although the group of beggars is extremely curious, but hearing this will damage the reputation of the Wang gang leader, they all quieted down and did not dare to inquire in detail.
Zhiguang continued: "We don't want to believe those words, but we can't disbelieve them, but unfortunately they are made by mistake and cannot be reversed. Those dozens of lives, the Khitan couple, all died in vain. ”
Qiao Feng faintly guessed, but he couldn't find a clue, he was a little anxious, and asked, "Master, that baby, what are you going to do with him?" ”
Hearing this, Zhiguang looked ashamed, "After we discussed, we decided to raise him as an adult, so we handed him over to a farmer near the Shaolin Temple for adoption, and asked the farmer couple to consider themselves the parents of the baby, and never let him know about the adoption." The peasant couple had no children, so they happily agreed. ”
When Qiao Feng heard this, he had already guessed eight or nine points, and said in a trembling voice: "Then who is the surname of that farmer?" ”
"You've guessed, and I don't have to hide it." Zhiguang said: "That farmer's family is surnamed Qiao and Sanhuai. ”
As soon as these words came out, Qiao Feng fell to his knees in shock, and everyone in the apricot forest widened their eyes in disbelief.
Qiao Feng's heart turned upside down, and his emotions were difficult to suppress.
"No, no......" muttered a few times, Qiao Feng suddenly raised his head, his eyes widened, lifted Zhiguang's collar, glared and shouted: "You are talking nonsense...... You are talking nonsense! I, Qiao Feng, am Han Chinese, and my biological parents are surnamed Qiao, why did you come to fabricate facts to frame me! What a bad thing I, Qiao Feng, have done to force you to be like this! ”
Zhiguang was speechless, opened his mouth, and turned into a sigh.
"Qiao Feng! There are all human and material evidence, and it will be useless for you to deny it! Quan Guanqing looked like a righteous Ling Ran, but the corners of his mouth unconsciously showed a trace of pride.
"You talk nonsense!" Qiao Feng faced everyone angrily, "You want me Qiao Feng to hand over the position of helper!" I, Qiao Feng, can not be the leader of the beggar gang at any time, why do you have to play such a trick! ”
The donkey rider 'Zhao Qiansun' sneered, and said in a nonchalant tone: "You are a Khitan, I am a Han, the same person, the Han people may not be superior, and the Khitan people may not be inferior to pigs and dogs, so why should you deny it." In the bloody battle of Yanmen Pass back then, the appearance and figure of the Khitan warrior were exactly the same as yours, and my Zhao Qiansun would not forget it after a hundred years. ”
Zhiguang also said at this time: "Lao Qu and Qiao Gang Leader have no grudges, and they are not members of the beggar gang, so there is no need to frame you at all." After Lao Wei and Wang Gang Leader handed you over to Qiao Sanhuai to raise that day, they were very concerned about everything about you. ”
"When you were seven years old, you met a wild wolf in the Shaomu Mountain, and you were rescued by Master Xuanku, who healed you and passed on your martial arts. It can be said that this matter was secretly arranged by the two of us. ”
"When you are sixteen years old, Gang Master Wang will officially become your mentor, Gang Master Wang thinks that we are sorry for your biological parents, so I want to train you to be a hero."
"Heroes and heroes......" Qiao Feng laughed, and everyone could hear the bitterness, "I, Qiao Feng, can't even figure out my own life experience, what kind of hero is I!" I will find out about this matter, and I can't easily deny Qiao's life because of one-sided words such as Er. ”
"Okay, you can look it up." Zhiguang walked up to Qiao Feng and said, "The big stone carved by your biological father should still be in place, you can go and see it for yourself." ”
Qiao Feng heard Zhiguang's words, and said in a dumb voice: "Thank you, master." Qiao Feng was offended just now. ”
Zhiguang stretched out his hand to stop him, "All your life, you have grown up under the supervision of me and your two masters, as well as the leading brother. You are generous and chivalrous, and you have repeatedly performed miraculous feats for the beggar gang, so that the beggar gang is united, and even people outside the gang think that you are the successor to the gang leader. Because you are a Khitan, Wang Gang Master tried three problems for you, and made seven great achievements before teaching you a dog stick. And after you succeeded to office, you lived up to expectations, acted chivalrous and righteous, and benefited the people, and the old man and others were very relieved. ”
"The old man knows all about you. In fact, this matter, Lao Wei would rather never mention it, but he was shaken out without thinking about it, whether it is the beggar gang or the Qiao gang leader, it is not necessarily a good thing. Alas......"
Zhiguang had a look of compassion and let out a long sigh.
At this time, Xu Chongxiao raised the letter in his hand and said, "Thank you Master Zhiguang for detailing the old things. This letter was written by the leading brother to Gang Leader Wang, in which he tried his best to dissuade Gang Leader Wang from passing on the throne to Qiao Feng. Gang Leader Joe, you might as well take a look at it yourself. ”
Qiao Feng was about to take it, but was taken by Zhiguang, "Wait, let Lao Wei take a look at it first, whether it is the original text." ”
Zhiguang took out the letter, turned around and walked a few steps, as if the afterglow of the sunset was not bright enough, and looked at it slowly, "Yes, it is indeed the handwriting of the leading brother." As he spoke, he suddenly tore off the signature at the end of the letter with his fingers, and swallowed it in his mouth.
Qiao Feng never expected that this respected old monk would use such a trick, and it was too late to stop him, "Master! …… What are you doing? ”
Zhiguang lowered his eyebrows and smiled calmly: "Gang Leader Qiao, Gang Leader Wang has passed away, needless to say, the name of this leading brother, Lao Wei doesn't want you to know." Your father and mother were killed by us, and you have to take revenge, please take revenge on the old man. ”
Qiao Feng said with a straight face: "The master is too underestimated by me Qiao Feng, this matter is not clear, he wants to kill you, and he is not in a hurry, if the truth is really as you just said, how can you bear it alone?" The enmity of the parents is not shared, how can the leading brother Qiao not find out?! ”
Zhiguang's face was uncertain when he heard this.
The donkey rider 'Zhao Qiansun' shrugged his shoulders and smiled, still with that casual look, "Yes, I'm also included, this account will also be counted as mine, when you want it, you can do it at any time." ”
Qiao Feng's heart was like a mess, and he ignored the donkey rider 'Zhao Qiansun', "Master Zhiguang, can you give the letter to me below." ”
"Absolutely."
Qiao Feng took the letter:
The sword beard is like my brother's face, and my brother's intention to pass on the throne will not change, and I think it must not be.
Qiao Jun is extremely talented, and he looks at his fellow martial arts fellows, and few of them can do it.
However, this son is not of my race, if he knows his origin in the future, the beggar gang will be wiped out in his hands, and the Central Plains martial arts will also suffer a catastrophe.
This matter is too much involved, and I pray that my brother will think twice.
"This letter is the handwriting of the Wang Gang Master," Xu Chongxiao was speechless after seeing Qiao Feng read the letter, and handed over a piece of letterhead, "The Wang Gang Master is your mentor, and you should recognize his handwriting." ”
Qiao Feng took it and looked at it again:
If Qiao Feng is pro-Liao and rebels against the Han Dynasty, and helps the Khitan to suppress the Great Song Dynasty, the whole gang will work together to kill, and there must be no mistakes, and the one who starts is not guilty.
Written by Wang Jiantong.
On the seventh day of the fifth month of the sixth year of the Great Song Yuanfeng.
"That day is the day I take over as the gang leader......" muttered, Qiao Feng's figure swayed slightly.
These lines are indeed written by Wang Jiantong himself, and Qiao Feng can recognize them clearly.
At this time, Qiao Feng still had any doubts about his life experience, but his teacher had always been like a loving father in his heart, but he didn't expect to leave such a testament in secret, and his heart was like a knife, and tears came out of his eyes.
