74, Du Xinwu, the hero of the north and south

"No news yet?"

Hong Kong, in the Ku's Medical Center, Chen Zhuo frowned.

After a few months in a row, a lot of major events happened, but Wang Wu and the others seemed to have evaporated from the world, and they disappeared out of thin air without even a clue to their whereabouts.

The sky was cloudy and rainy, and the streets were full of people.

In front of him, a swarthy and thin young man was holding a piece of baked bread, devouring it, with a layer of rain foam on his shoulders, most of his shabby clothes were wet, his cloth shoes were piercing, his neck was wrapped in a messy and greasy braid, and there was a kind of age-appropriate maturity and stability on his immature face.

The boy who pulled the rickshaw back then has grown up now.

Daimyo Li Shan.

It's just that Chen Zhuo and confiscated him as an apprentice.

Originally, he wanted to accept it, but over the years, he was either busy pondering his fists and feet, or he was busy mobilizing forces from all sides, and he didn't have any extra energy to teach each other, so he put it off again and again.

After thinking about it for a long time, Chen Zhuo immediately decided, "Let everyone go to the famous mountains and rivers in the north to find them, tell them not to act alone, at least with a brother who communicates with news, one to explore the mountain, one to answer, let them set a deadline by themselves, if the person who explores the mountain fails to return within the time limit, the other person will report immediately." ”

He was nervous, although it was a delicate job to find out those old monsters, but in the past half a year, not only had no one found, but even the whereabouts of the older generation of grandmasters of Wang Wu were unknown, but he was afraid that it would either be a stalemate, or both would lose, or they would die together.

"It's best not to even let go of the desert, the Gobi, and the snow-capped mountains."

Li Shan nodded hurriedly, turned around and plunged into the rain.

The medical hall is still the same, nothing more than a renovation, adding a few rows of medicine cabinets.

Zuo Zongsheng Lin Heier was busy taking care of Jinlou, and he also got married at the beginning of the year, but it was a pity that Lin Heier had suffered internal injuries and had never been able to conceive a child.

Liang Chaoyun is also in the Golden Tower, and since he called the north, Chen Zhuo always felt that this girl was avoiding him intentionally or unintentionally, and she didn't even talk much.

Gu Yu grabbed the medicine for people, and saw Li Shan running around, "Why don't you say accept him?" That child has a tough temperament, can endure hardships, and is also a good seedling...... Cui'er seems to like this person very much. ”

Chen Zhuo frowned, and said flatly: "Now that I accept it, in case my master can't be a few days and it will be gone, isn't it delaying others?" I passed on some kung fu to him, and it was enough to lay a good foundation, as for whether to accept apprentices or not, it was nothing more than a name. ”

Gu Yu's face froze, he was a little annoyed, his eyes were suddenly cold, he looked at it fiercely, and he beckoned whatever he was holding in his hand, knives, scissors, and medicine bowls, all of them were thrown at Chen Zhuo, and he said with strength: "I'll let you talk nonsense!" ”

In the exclamations that the neighbors were accustomed to, Chen Zhuo's burly body suddenly seemed to have become a fluttering cotton flower, swept his feet back, his arms drooped and put together, and he had put the medicine bowl containing the medicinal soup into his palm, and his wrist turned out of a circle, and then with a slight shock, the medicine bowl had fallen in front of an old man.

The medicine bowl was not moved, and the soup in the bowl was still swirling, not spilling a drop.

His other hand also made a move, shaking his arm, and the shadow of his hand flew over, and he had cut the knife in his hand.

Originally, he wanted to say a few words, but looking at Gu Yu sitting behind the medicine cabinet with his son in his arms, his eyes were red, he had to swallow the words back, and suddenly smiled: "I will definitely come back." ”

Gu Yu kissed Hu'er and whispered, "Why don't I go with you?" ”

Chen Zhuo didn't think about it, his face was gloomy, "No! ”

In the face of life and death, the two who knew each other in the past often quarreled, but they quickly forgot about the quarrel.

It's not that they don't understand each other's minds, but that this situation is passively painful.

Time went back little by little, until the early autumn of this year.

One day in mid-September.

In the medical hall, Cui'er and Li Shan are busy; Gu Yu was upstairs teaching Hu'er to read; Chen Zhuo sat in the courtyard and watched the news from all the brothers, suddenly the pores on the back of his hands were closed, his neck turned, and he looked back and stared.

But I saw a person standing outside the medical hall.

This person is thin and straight, with a vigorous step, a slightly pointed face, and slightly drooping eyes, but just looking thin, there is no trace of thinness, but there is a strange and pressing edge, wearing a brand new gray coat and neat short hair.

Looking at his face, he is about 30 years old, with a short mustache on his lips, a slight beard on his chin, and a dignified appearance.

"Master!"

Chen Zhuo was surprised in his heart, and was about to ask, when he saw the trend of this person's feet faintly circling, his eyes suddenly lit up.

This step is not like the circle of Tai Chi, but the toes are formed in a circle, like the inner circle method of the "natural door".

Among the dozens of grandmasters at the beginning, Master Xu took this kind of pace, taking into account both movement and static, advancing and retreating, attacking and defending.

The center of his mind was racing, and he had already guessed who this person was in an instant, "Zunjia's surname is Du?" ”

The people who came were also looking at Chen Zhuo, only to feel that the people sitting in the courtyard were still ordinary based on their backs, and they were nothing more than burly, but when they looked back, they inadvertently revealed a look of evil that went deep into their bones.

At first glance, it looks like a tiger sitting on a mountain and a dragon lying on the ground, like a vicious wolf looking back with bared teeth.

Unruly and hideous.

The person who came hugged his fists and said: "In Xia Du Xinwu!" ”

Chen Chuxin said "sure enough", his face was already a little happy, this is also a ruthless character who has assassinated the Queen Mother of the West.

I entered Beijing a little late that year, and if it was the first half of the year, I should be able to meet it.

Gai therefore has a close friendship with Wang Wu, and has saved Wang Wu.

Wang Wu told him before he set off that if he met this person, he should be entertained and not neglected.

And Master Xu also left a letter and asked Chen Zhuo to pass it on to this apprentice.

Du Xinwu's eyes lit up, "You are the Senior Brother Chen that Master Wang received?" ”

Chen Zhuo saw the salute and said, "Chen Zhuo has seen Senior Brother Du!" ”

Wang Wu is also a teacher and a friend, and it is reasonable to call him a senior brother.

Du Xinwu smiled, but soon remembered something, and his expression became solemn, "I heard from people I know that my master appeared in Foshan, Guangdong a few years ago, and then there was no news; Not only that, but many martial arts masters were also missing, so they rushed back from Japan; After some inquiry, I learned that I was invited by Master Wang, and I originally wanted to leave for Foshan, but when I heard someone talk about you, I went straight over. ”

Chen Zhuo didn't say anything, got up and went upstairs, walked down quickly, and took the letter left by Xu Dwarf to Du Xinwu.

"This is what Uncle Xu asked me to hand over to you."

Du Xinwu didn't even sit down, and couldn't wait to open the letter after receiving it.

When he saw the handwriting in the letter, his expression was stunned at first, then his brows were tightened, his face was cloudy, and he looked at Chen Zhuo from time to time, as if to confirm the authenticity of the content in the letter.

After reading it in one breath, the person was already stunned in place, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, and his breath was already short.

"Du has been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for many years, and such a shocking thing is still the first time I have heard of it, which is really unbelievable...... This year, they didn't even hear back? ”

Chen Zhuo didn't know how to answer, if he didn't want to stay and preside over the overall situation, and wait for the opportunity, he would have already taken it personally.

Originally, he planned to lure those people out with the treasure of King Chuang, but in this way, the rumors came out, and he would face more than just those old fossils, and it might be the army that was overwhelmed at that time.

Chen Zhuo was not worried in his heart, but he still reassured: "Senior Brother Du, don't panic, there is no news to show that everything is still variable, although those people are strong, but the master guesses that at best there are two hands, Master Xu, they are all four or five grandmasters traveling together, and suddenly they hide their whereabouts, I am afraid that they have their own plans, you can live in peace for the time being......"

Du Xinwu's eyes must have changed, and after hesitating for a moment, he said in a deep voice: "I can't hide it, Senior Brother Chen, this time I am not only looking for my master, but also asking for something." I have to protect one person in a few days, but there is news from the north that the Qing court has sent dozens of killers over, I am afraid that I will not be able to catch it, and I hope you can help me, that person's surname is Sun ......"

"Sun?"

Chen Zhuo's eyelids jumped, he suddenly took a deep breath, and saw Du Xinwu's solemn expression, so he nodded heavily.

"Good!"
