The night was dark and windy, very cool, and the mosquitoes had subsided a lot.

Wei Bao and the others took turns to keep vigil, hiding in the shadows, and rejoicing.

I thought to myself, the enemy is coming, and the light at the door of the house is not extinguished, and it can be seen at a glance. Even if you are really sleepy, if you take a nap for a while, as long as the snoring cannot cover the sound of insects, it will be difficult for the enemy to detect it for a while.

Despite this, Wei Bao and the others still inspected all the movements around them in the spirit of twelve, and did not dare to slack off. After all, the moon is dark and kills the night, and the wind is high and the day is on fire. The more favorable the environment is for you, the more favorable the enemy will be if they are willing to attack.

The night was sometimes too quiet, and in order to eliminate fatigue and avoid sleepiness, the three of Wei Bao learned from the literati and scholars, and tried to recite poems against each other.

Wei Bao looked at the stars in the sky, pondered for a while, and said happily: "The Weaver Girl has infinite sorrow this night. ”

The other two felt that they had no talent in this area, and admitted defeat and said: "Old Wei, if you don't change the topic and tell a story." ”

In order to get rid of the identity of a martial barbarian, Wei Bao encouraged: "It's not difficult, think about it for a while, and you can match it." ”

The two of them learned from Wei Bao, looked up at the starry sky, meditated and thought hard, and after a long time, a man was full of joy and said loudly: "The three of the river and the Han are more hopeful." ”

Wei Bao said happily: "Yes, old horse, abandon martial arts and follow literature, you can start with you." ”

Lao Ma replied with a smile: "You have to rush the ducks to the shelves, if you can't do it, you have to get it, you can't get cold." ”

Wei Bao snorted twice and said, "It's okay to catch the ducks on the shelves, then I'll think about it again and let Lao Song also come to the right pair." Looking around, there was silence, and I thought about it. Suddenly, I heard the sound of the drum of the third watch outside, and my thoughts were like divine help, and I said quickly: "Three watches and three and a half watches in the middle of the night." ”

Lao Ma said: "Old Song, it's your turn." ”

Lao Song, who was sitting on the side, said, "Aren't you embarrassed for me?" ”

Wei Bao smiled: "This is to embarrass you, it is to help you." ”

Lao Song didn't think so, and said quickly: "I don't know how to write and ink, you insist that I do the 'exchange of new peaches for old talismans', you are helping me there, obviously you are cheating me." ”

Wei Bao heard this, and sighed slightly: "Old Song, Brother Yu was not good at power change back then, he only asked about the merits of things, and he didn't know how to be forgiving and forgiving, and those who could not be enemies have become enemies." Someone took the lead in attacking, and the group of heroes responded, and overnight, he changed from the number one hero in the Central Plains to a public enemy of martial arts that everyone eliminated quickly. Why? ”

Lao Song replied: "I am a reckless martial artist, go there to know this." ”

Wei Bao said: "Ten years ago, I passed through Mount Tai and spent the night in a temple, and an old monk knew me, and when he talked about Brother Bai Yu, he was all sorry. He told me that the reason why Brother Bai is not allowed in the rivers and lakes is that he is too serious about everything, and lacks the leisure of 'laughing at the breeze and looking up at the floating clouds', which makes many people afraid, afraid that one day they will be planted in his hands and come to the first strike. ”

Lao Ma sighed slightly, and then said: "Now that the son is out of the mountain, if you want not to repeat the mistakes of the past, you have to cherish the force, and those who should be reasonable must be reasonable, and those who cannot be reasonable, they must also learn to make concessions in a timely manner." Over the years, in order to survive, I have been running around and hiding, and I have gradually figured out one thing. The reason why people are bad is because of a heart. This heart can neither be cultivated in a while, nor can it be changed by others in a while, and habits become natural. ”

Wei Bao said: "So, those of us who are subordinates, although we should be brave and take the lead, we can't be the same as before, talk about fighting and killing at every turn, learn from the broadness of the literati, help the young master to accumulate some belly, and try not to make enemies." ”

Lao Song said: "But I don't know a few big characters, so it's really not the material for poetry to be right." ”

Wei Bao smiled: "Old Song, do you know how the Mid-Autumn Festival is chosen in the middle of the month? ”

Lao Song said: "How do I know." ”

Wei Bao said: "The world advocates the golden mean, and likes to use it for both purposes, half of the front and half of the front, isn't it both civil and military." ”

Lao Ma said: "You are talking nonsense, it is obviously the moon to the Mid-Autumn Festival." ”

"Mid-Autumn Festival in August, or the middle of the month." Lao Song muttered to himself, suddenly became excited, and said happily: "There is, Mid-Autumn Festival in August and mid-August." ”

"Three shifts in the middle of the night, three and a half shifts, Mid-Autumn Festival, August and mid-August." Wei Bao was slightly startled and said happily: "Okay." Lao Song, who doesn't like to read and write the most, has finally opened his mind, okay. Old horse, make a note and find a time to celebrate. ”

"Three shifts in the middle of the night, three and a half shifts, Mid-Autumn Festival, August and mid-August." Lao Ma read it, and always felt that several numbers were crowded together, and it was not particularly refreshing to read, and said: "Old Wei, although these two sentences are neat, they always feel that they are not particularly cool when they are read, so they should not be changed." ”

Wei Bao was very happy after hearing this, and recited the two sentences twice, and said, "It's not particularly refreshing to read." ”

The three of them quieted down and brainstormed, and after a long time, Lao Ma said, "Do you two think it's okay to change it like this?" ”

Wei Bao said: "Is this the case, three and a half in the middle of the night, in the middle of August and mid-August." ”

Lao Ma said: "How do you know? ”

Wei Bao replied with a smile: "Our brothers have been together for more than 20 years, can we not think of being together!" ”

The three of them smiled, chatted slightly, and returned to quiet, observing the movements around them, and concentrating.

The moon was heading westward, and it had passed the third watch, and there were a few slight footsteps outside the courtyard, which attracted the attention of the three of them, and they listened carefully.

But after a while, five or six black shadows quietly jumped into the wall, and after looking around, they quickly dispersed, and approached the doors of Ning Zhen'an, Ximenqing, Gui Haiming, Lu Lianhai and others, the swords in their hands were shining, and the chill hit people.

When Wei Bao saw this, he shouted: "Who is here?" "Appeared with the old horse and the old Song brothers.

The six black shadows were frightened, turned around, the guys, and surrounded Wei Bao and the three of them, and were about to attack, when the doors of six or seven rooms were opened at the same time, and one or two people flashed out.

When a black shadow saw it, he hurriedly stopped and shouted: "There is an ambush, withdraw!" "Jumped up to the eaves and ran away.

When the other five black shadows saw that Wei Bao and the others were outnumbered, and they didn't know what the other party's martial arts were, they jumped up to the house and ran away.

Wei Bao saw that a few brothers were following on the roof, waiting to catch up, and hurriedly stopped: "Poor Kou Mo chase, be careful of deception." ”

The men stopped, jumped off the eaves, said goodbye to each other, took their places, returned to the room, closed the door, as if nothing had happened, leaving Wei Bao and the three of them silent.

Wei Bao and Lao Ma and Lao Song inspected the courtyard and outside the courtyard, and when they saw that there was nothing unusual, they returned to the dark place and waited for the dawn.

The rooster crows three times, and the sky is slightly bright.

Bai Yutian woke up and remembered that Wei Bao and the others stayed up all night, and they were most likely to be sleepy at this time. Worried about the safety of Ximenqing and the others, he got up and walked out of the door and walked towards the courtyard where Ning Zhenan and the others lived.

When he entered the courtyard, he looked around and saw that there was nothing unusual, so he turned around and walked towards the courtyard gate. As soon as the front foot stepped out of the threshold, the back foot heard a strange sound, and when he looked back, the two men in black just crossed the wall and landed, two pairs of eyes wrapped in black cloth covers, looking at themselves, I don't know whether they were surprised or a little uncomfortable.

Bai Yutian walked over and said coldly, "Who are you?" ”

The man in black took advantage of the faint light to take a good look at Bai Yutian, and saw that he was young and delicate, very much like a boy who did not learn and did not know how to do it. Consciously killing people like Bai Yutian was not the work of a hero, he looked at the doors around him, and said disapprerovingly: "It's nothing to do with you, if you don't want to die, get away." ”

Bai Yutian took a few steps forward and replied in a good voice: "If you come to find friends, it is none of my business, but if you are here to seek enemies, it must be my business." ”

A man in black sighed: "Boy, I didn't want to hurt you, you brought it on yourself." Before the words fell, the long sword in his hand shook, and a sword stabbed towards Bai Yutian, and the cool breeze was blowing.

Bai Yutian dodged, used three or five points of internal force, and slapped a palm at the man in black with lightning speed.

The man in black was startled, put his palm on it, floated back to the place with the help of the palm wind, and said to the other black-clothed man beside him: "Let's go up together, solve this kid and talk about it." ”

The other man in black felt that it should be so. The two jumped up, aimed at Bai Yutian, and spoke with the tip of their swords.

Bai Yutian saw that the two swords were attacking each other left and right, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he took the peach wood out of the sheath, picked it left and right, and fought together.

After five or six strokes, the two men in black did not take half of the advantage, and they were very flustered. As they expected, the battle circle was full of people, it was the Wei Bao brothers and others.

Bai Yutian repelled the attack of the man in black and asked loudly, "Now you can tell me why you are here." ”

The man in black glanced around, and saw that Wei Bao and the others were all with blades in their hands, ready to move, and were very worried, Wen Yan replied: "Obviously, why are you here, why are we here." ”

Bai Yutian said: "The two, although you are strong in martial arts, you are not invincible in the world. Even if you get your wish today, I'm afraid that you will help others make wedding dresses, in addition to empty joy, you will lose your life for it. In my opinion, it's better to leave and eliminate the covetousness. ”

The two in black glanced at each other, and a man in black arched his hand and said: "The high martial arts of the young man have not been seen in his next life, and there will be a period later." ”

Bai Yutian arched his hand: "The two martial arts are so high that they are rare in their lives." We will not send it far. ”

The two men in black arched their hands one by one: "Farewell!" "Jumping up, fluttering like a swallow, flashing away.

Wei Bao came over and said, "Childe, looking at the two of them, it seems that Qiupu has two swords." ”

Bai Yutian said: "Do you know them?" ”

Wei Bao said: "Qiupu Shuangjian is also good and evil, obsessed with martial arts, except for comparing swords with others, he rarely walks around the rivers and lakes. ”

Bai Yutian said: "We want to go north to Bianjing, Qiupu is a place that must pass through, but what trouble will there be?" ”

Wei Bao replied with a smile: "Childe, don't worry, Qiupu Shuangjian has a nickname, and there are no two. ”

Bai Yutian said: "What do you mean?" ”

Wei Bao said: "When their brothers encounter trouble, they pay attention to winning each time and never repeat failures. ”

Bai Yutian said with a smile: "Since this is the case, you can rest, and I will send someone to call you for breakfast later." ”

Wei Bao and the others: "Childe, what about you?" ”

Bai Yutian said: "I went into the room to see how their injuries were, and after breakfast, everyone rushed to Huangshan." ”

Wei Bao and the others saluted Bai Yutian and said goodbye, and walked out of the courtyard.

Bai Yutian sent Wei Bao and the others away, and walked to the rooms of Ning Zhen'an, Ximen Qing, Lu Lianhai and others in turn, helping them heal their injuries and talking to them.
