Chapter Seven: Secretly Drinking Wine in the Hidden Grass House, Visiting Junshan and Playing with the Beggars (1)
That night, taking advantage of the hazy moonlight, the two quietly walked out of the meditation room and quietly went to the wall. Wan Jianfeng rode up the courtyard wall, and beckoned to Tan Zhengfang below with a smile, "Brother Tan, come up!" ”
Tan Zhengfang then tapped his toes, slammed upward, and easily climbed over the courtyard wall. The weather in Kunlun Mountain was extremely cold, and Tan Zhengfang put on cotton clothes early in the morning, but under the moonlight, he was still holding a cotton clothes that was thicker than what he was wearing. Seeing this, Wan Jianfeng quipped: "Hahaha, Brother Tan, if I hadn't taken you out to play every night, would you have the light skills you have now?" Shouldn't you invite me to a few jars? By the way, what are you doing with an extra piece of cotton clothes, are you afraid that Ben Shaoxia will freeze to death on this mountain? ”
Tan Zhengfang smiled and said, "Brother Wan, don't you already have a cotton coat on you?" The one in my hand is for that sword immortal, he is alone in this mountain to practice and helpless, what if he freezes out three long and two short? If I can see the sword fairy you said tonight, I will go down the mountain tomorrow to help you buy wine. If you can't see it, you might as well go down the mountain and beg for wine by yourself! ”
Wan Jianfeng nodded, "Okay!" We are determined to do our word, and we will not go back! As he spoke, he hurried under his feet, and in an instant he rushed out five or six feet. Tan Zhengfang smiled, then used all his strength and followed closely behind.
The two of them ran for two or three hours, Wan Jianfeng looked at the valley he had come to last night, he excitedly pointed to Tan Zhengfang and said, "Brother Tan, come and see!" That's where I met the Sword Immortal last night, and we're almost in the Valley of the Immortals! ”
Tan Zhengfang's skills are not as deep as Wan Jianfeng's, and he is already sweating profusely at this moment, and he panted and said, "Wan ...... Brother Wan, I'm ...... I can't run, are you sure it's ...... there. Is there really a sword fairy? ”
Wan Jianfeng nodded and said affirmatively: "Yes, of course there is!" Otherwise, in the middle of the night, I will sleep well and not sleep, and I will run so far with you, I will be full? ”
The two of them had reached the front of the valley while talking, but the valley was empty, not to mention the sword fairy, not even a ghost. Tan Zhengfang stopped and said to Wan Jianfeng in disappointment: "Brother Wan, this valley is remote, there is not even a footprint in the valley, it seems that it is a place where people and ghosts are not close, but you said that there are sword immortals here, I think you are really full!" ”
Wan Jianfeng said: "Impossible! Last night, I saw a young man with excellent swordsmanship and a fairy-like appearance, and we had a fight! I'm absolutely not mistaken! If you don't believe me, follow me into the valley to find it, and if not, I'll quit drinking for a day tomorrow! ”
At this time, the mountain wind rose suddenly, and it suddenly snowed heavily in the sky, and the snowflakes flying all over the sky set off the already magnificent Kunlun more and more vastly. But Tan Zhengfang was so tired that he was about to lose his strength, how could he still be in the mood to enjoy the snow scene, so he just gasped for breath, "Forget it...... Forget it, I really can't walk anymore, let's go back. Isn't it just a few ...... A few jars of wine, I can't buy it for you, why make up such a story to lie to me. If you don't go back, Master will punish you again! ”
Wan Jianfeng stubbornly shook his head, "No, I want you back!" I really ran into a sword fairy here last night, and I lied to you that you were a puppy! If I don't see him today, I won't go back! He said as he strode towards the valley.
Tan Zhengfang sighed helplessly, looked at Wan Jianfeng's distant back, and shouted: "Brother Wan, you insisted on not going back, and when the time comes, the master will punish you, don't blame me for not reminding you!" ”
Wan Jianfeng didn't reply, he walked forward, and shouted in his mouth: "Go back by yourself, if Master asks me tomorrow morning, you will say that I drank too much, but don't say that we have come out together, be careful that Master will punish you together!" ”
The north wind is howling and the snow is falling.
The Kunlun Mountain, where the morning sun is approaching, is magnificent and sad.
At this moment there was a young man kneeling in front of two graves in the depths of the valley, his expression cold, his eyes so red that they seemed to drip blood. The two tombstones are engraved with a line of words, the left is engraved "The Tomb of the Nine Heavens of the Emperor Kaofeng Gong", and the right is engraved "The Tomb of the Emperor Kaoyun and Yimo"!
Although the owners of these two tombs do not have the same surname, they are a father and son, a father and son who were once dominant. But no matter how beautiful it once was, it is now sleeping on this cold Kunlun Mountain, gradually forgotten by the world.
The world will forget them, but this young man will not, and he will never live. He stared at Yun Yimo's tombstone at the moment, and his eyes seemed to see through the tombstone, through the wind and snow, and saw a past that he couldn't bear to look back on.
"Father, in order to save thousands of Li people, you did not hesitate to give up a comfortable and prosperous life, and threw yourself into the rain of swords and swords, and made suggestions to help Murong Yanyun return to the country, which can be described as doing your best. But after Murong Yanyun became emperor, he was ungrateful and drove you out of the court. You returned to Lianxia Mountain alone, and encountered the Song army's large-scale encirclement and suppression, forcing you to commit suicide by throwing yourself off the cliff! I am also in a desperate situation, if it weren't for my grandfather's sudden appearance and sword rescue, I'm afraid that there would be no me Yunzixiao a long time ago! ”
He turned his gaze to Feng Jiutian's tombstone again, and continued: "Grandfather, the world says that you are the great devil, but in my heart you are the real hero. When you were young, one man and one sword slashed the evil ways of the world. Although you are misunderstood by the world, you have no regrets. After learning that your father was forced to death by the Song army, you entered the palace alone when you were over half a hundred years old, and washed the Golden Palace in blood, which moved the ghosts and gods! It's hateful that the emperor Lao'er has many powerful men, and you have failed to avenge the blood and the sea of blood! But don't worry, as long as I Yun Zixiao still has a breath in this life, I will definitely overthrow the Zhao dynasty and kill the descendants of Zhao Kuangyin and Murong Yanyun, otherwise I will not be a man! ”
This sonorous and powerful oath was like a bolt of lightning slashing straight to the earth, and the north wind blew even more wildly in an instant. At this moment, the sky seemed to be angry, the earth seemed to be weeping, and the life and death of thousands of living beings in the world seemed to be only between the thoughts of the light years.
The cold wind blew across his face like countless steel knives, pulling his thoughts back to reality. He looked at the two tombstones in front of him and let out a long roar, "Grandfather, father, your heroes are scattered in the sky, and see how I make the Song Kingdom's blood debts pay for in blood!" He stood up slowly. Silently turned away, slowly walking out of the valley.
The snow is getting heavier and heavier, and the wind is sweeping through the snow, making it difficult to see the road ahead. Wan Jianfeng was still struggling to move forward in the wind and snow at the moment, even though he was almost suffocated by the strong wind, his pace did not slow down in the slightest.
He didn't know how long he had been walking, and suddenly he smelled a strong smell of wine in the wind, and he hurriedly stopped to smell it carefully, but the fragrance came and went. He said curiously, "This is really strange! Who would keep such a fine wine in this icy and snowy place, could it be the sword immortal I saw last night? Maybe it's not far from Asgard! ”
He chased the aroma of wine against the wind, and walked forward for two or three miles, only then did he see an extremely elegant grass house through the snow, and he also smelled the aroma of wine from time to time in the house. Wan Jianfeng's saliva almost flowed, and he suddenly forgot the fatigue of a night of traveling, and quickly ran towards the grass house.
When I arrived at the gate of the cottage, the aroma of wine became stronger and stronger. He knocked lightly on the door and asked, "Is there anyone inside?" I am a little beggar passing by, I have not eaten or drunk for several days, and I hope that the master of the room will have mercy on me, and reward me with a sip of wine! ”
He knocked for a long time, and saw that no one inside answered, so he had to go around to the back window of the grass house, carefully poke through the window lattice paper, and look inside. I saw that the furnishings in the house were very simple, but they were fresh and elegant, and there was no one inside. So he mustered up his courage, picked up a twig on the ground, gently flicked the latch of the door, and went in trembling.
There was really no one in the house, only the smell of wine was permeating, and Wan Jianfeng was fascinated at this time. I couldn't care much about it, so I searched for the direction from which the aroma came from, and rushed straight into the wing room to the east.
As soon as he entered, he was shocked by what he saw. In this icy and snowy grass house, not only are there more than a dozen jars of fine wine, but there are also two spirit tablets standing on the wooden cabinet against the wall. This spirit card is spotless, and it is obvious that someone often wipes it. Wan Jianfeng looked at it for a long time before he read: "Grandfather Feng Gong's Nine Heavenly Mansion Monarch's Spirit Position." ”
He scratched his head after reading it, and said in confusion: "Who is Feng Jiutian?" Could it be the big devil in the mouth of Senior Brother Yuanjue? That is, Yun Zixiao's grandfather? So, I didn't find his person, but I stumbled into his house by mistake? If he comes back in a moment and finds me stealing his wine, won't there be another fight? ”
As he was thinking wildly, the rich and sweet aroma of wine rushed into his nose, and his hand seemed to be uncontrollable, and he subconsciously lifted a jar of fine wine, unsealed the red cloth, and poured it into his mouth.
He drank half a jar of wine as soon as he raised his neck, and then sighed: "Good wine, this is a peerless good wine!" I just said that I have drunk a lot of good wine in the past, and compared to this jar of fine wine, it is not as good as horse pee! As he spoke, he drank the remaining half of the jar, then reached out and picked up another, and in the twinkling of an eye drank it all again.
Soon, a dozen jars of fine wine turned into more than a dozen empty jars, piled up horizontally and vertically. Even if Wan Jianfeng drank well, he felt dizzy at the moment, and he stumbled and fell to the ground under his feet, but he still held an empty altar tightly in his hand and refused to let go.
He looked at the empty altar all over the ground, and said unsatisfied: "Alas, I can't drink anymore!" No matter how good the wine is, there are times when I can't drink it, I should go, otherwise let the little fairy bump into him, and I can't beat him with my current appearance! ”
Wan Jianfeng said and stood up strongly, and staggered towards the door, but he then staggered back, and said with a smile: "Hahaha, dare to go to the front door after stealing wine, it seems that I have really drunk too much!" ”
He staggered to the window, holding it up with one hand and tiptoe out of the window. At the moment when he was about to jump out, he suddenly saw Yun Zixiao returning from the snow, he was so frightened that he retracted his body, quickly opened the cabinet next to him, and got into it.
"Whew! It's dangerous, it's dangerous! Fortunately, I reacted quickly, otherwise I would have been in big trouble if I collided with him! Wan Jianfeng touched his chest with his hand and breathed a long sigh of relief. He listened attentively, and saw that there was no movement outside, so he carefully pushed the cabinet door open a small crack, and was about to wait for an opportunity to escape from the grass house, but suddenly there was a sound of footsteps at the door.
Wan Jianfeng hurriedly closed the cabinet door when he heard the sound, thinking, "This is terrible, the cabinet is an urn, I am a turtle, he just came to catch a turtle in an urn, this is good, I want to run and have nowhere to run!" ”
He was worried that he couldn't get out, but the young man walked slowly towards the cabinet. He didn't seem to find those empty altars lying on the ground at all, and said to himself: "Alas, my filial piety has expired, and I should go down the mountain today. ”
Yun Zixiao walked to the cabinet, patted the wooden cabinet gently, and said: "This is the cabinet left by my grandfather, it shouldn't have been damaged at will, but I have made up my mind, and I can only do it!" ”
Wan Jianfeng's cold sweat had already flowed down his sideburns at this time, he couldn't hold it anymore, and shouted in his mouth: "Hey! Don't burn, don't burn, can't I come out! Then he quickly pushed open the cabinet door, and sprang out on tiptoe.
"Humph!" Yun Zixiao snorted and said coldly, "You are finally willing to come out?" If you don't come out again, I'll roast you and feed you to the dogs!" ”
Wan Jianfeng stared at the young man drunkenly, and said angrily: "Hey! surnamed Yun, I treat you as a friend, and I ran dozens of miles to see you in the wind and snow, but you want to burn me to death, it's too unrighteous! ”
Yun Zixiao sneered and pointed to the empty wine jars on the ground and said, "Are you very righteous?" These dozen jars of wine were left by my grandfather, each jar is worth a hundred taels, I am reluctant to drink a sip, but you don't even say hello, you drink most of them, this is what you call righteousness? ”
Wan Jianfeng said with a smile: "Haha, isn't wine just for drinking, if you don't drink it for a few years, it will dry up on its own, and then thousands of taels of silver will be lost." Anyway, you're going down the mountain, and I'll help you drink them all, and it's not a waste of your grandfather's property, and his old man can be blind! I've done you such a big favor, so you should weigh how to thank me! ”
The corners of Yun Zixiao's mouth rose slightly, and he pointed at Wan Jianfeng with his sword and smiled: "Okay, don't you like to drink, I invite you to drink for three months, but you have to take me into Beijing!" ”
Wan Jianfeng was stunned for a moment, and then said excitedly: "Is this true? Which Beijing do you want to enter, whether it is Bianliang in the Great Song Dynasty, Tho Baa in Dali, or Linhuang in Daliao, as long as you say it, there is nothing I can't find! ”
Yun Zixiao nodded with satisfaction and said: "I am a Han Chinese, so naturally I want to defect to the Great Song Dynasty and make great achievements in Bianliang, how can I collude with foreign people?" ”
Wan Jianfeng smiled and said, "Haha, as long as there is good wine, you can go wherever you want!" What Da Song, Dali, and Da Liao, for me is just the difference between Du Kang, the copper pot and the burning knife! ”
Yun Zixiao smiled when he heard this, "Sometimes I really envy you, if only I could live as carefree as you." He said that his face gradually became complicated, and then returned to cold, "Alas, it's a pity that I can't do it in this life......
Wan Jianfeng pointed at Yun Zixiao and said with a smile: "Haha, you are only one or two years older than me, and the days ahead are still long, why should you draw conclusions so early?" ”
Yun Zixiao nodded, "You are right, if I can get what I want as soon as possible, maybe I can really be as free as you in the rest of my days!" He said and looked at the sky, and then said to Wan Jianfeng: "It's almost noon, if you don't lead the way, I'm afraid that you won't be able to catch up with the market before the sun sets, and then you don't blame me for being stingy and not buying you wine!" ”
Wan Jianfeng dreamed of going down the mountain, but he was a little reluctant to leave. He subconsciously looked in the direction of Longtan Temple, and thought, "It is enough for Master to have Brother Tan's jade inheritance mantle, if I also stay here, sooner or later I will have to compete with Brother Tan for the position of head of the family, and it will be very cost-effective to hurt the brotherhood for the position of head of the family." Besides, if you become the head of the family, you will become a real monk, you can't eat meat or drink alcohol, so what's it like to live! That's it, that's it! ”
He wanted to stop and smile at Yun Zixiao, "Brother Yun, let's go quickly, while I haven't regretted it yet!" As he spoke, he ran out of the door and down the hill. Yun Zixiao looked at his back in the distance, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth......
