That Song Mingjun is a Jiangxi family, and his ancestors were eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty.

Song Mingjun entered Sichuan with the eunuch since he was a child, loved martial arts since he was a child, met the chivalrous monk Yifan in the Qingcheng Mountains, and practiced an amazing skill.

After his father's death in the Ming Dynasty, he didn't want to be a foreign race anymore, and lived in seclusion in eastern Sichuan, teaching his son Litian. After his death, Ming Jun attacked the rest of his father and brother's property, fought for righteousness and light wealth, and recruited strange people and celebrities everywhere, and the art industry also advanced day by day.

On the rivers and lakes, because of his outstanding skills, and the paralysis of mountains and rivers, he was given a nickname, called the landscape bright wheel.

He and the land golden dragon Chuping are brothers in the same sect. In recent years, because he helped a dart player on the Sichuan Road, he went to recapture the dart, and inadvertently formed a grudge with the Eight Demons of Xichuan.

Because I often heard Chu Ping talk about Jiang Yue's light wealth friend, who was good at martial arts but had never met a famous teacher, he wanted to go to him to avoid trouble.

Fortunately, no one knows about his famous rivers and lakes, and the Eight Devils only think that Sichuan is his hometown, and they will not come to Jiangxi for the time being. Seeing Jiang Yue's affection, he lived in his house and guided him through internal and external skills.

After three years, Jiang Yue really excelled both internally and externally. For Mingjun, it is natural to salute in every way.

One day, Jiang Yue was looking at the door with Mingjun, and suddenly felt that there was a shiny thing flying, and then looking at Mingjun, he had already taken the thing in his hand, which turned out to be a silver dart.

Just as he was about to ask a question, he suddenly saw a person flying in the distance, and when he arrived at the two, he looked at Mingjun and said with a smile: "I have been on the order of the demon lord to look for your excellency for three years, and I am worried that I can't meet, but I don't want to meet here." Now I only listen to your Excellency, so I can reply to our demon lord. With that, he laughed twice.

Ming Jun said: "I inadvertently injured the Eight Demon Lords at the beginning, and I regret it. was going to come to the door to bear Jing, but he was invited by a friend to come here to accompany Jiang Gongzi to practice martial arts. Since Your Excellency has come by order, doesn't Song know how to lift? However, Song still has some private matters to be resolved, please go to the demon lord, and say that Song will visit Qingluo Mountain during the Dragon Boat Festival in May next year. ”

The man listened and said, "I have heard for a long time that Your Excellency is a trustworthy person, and I hope that you will not miss the appointment at that time." ”

After that, he didn't wait for Mingjun to say anything, put his hands together, and shook Mingjun's chest, and said: "Please!" ”

Mingjun raised the dantian qi up and shouted, "Your Excellency, please!" ”

Looking at the man again, for no reason, as if something had secretly bumped into him, he retreated more than a dozen steps, looked at the two of them a few times with a guilty face, turned around and left, his steps were like flying, and he didn't know where to go in a blink of an eye.

Jiang Yue was very surprised when he saw Mingjun's face flushed, as if he was drunk. Just as he was about to ask, Myeongjun shook his head, turned around and left.

When he returned to Jiang's house, he hurriedly sat down cross-legged, and after a while, he said, "Dangerous!" Jiang Yue was busy asking.

Mingjun said: "Where does Childe know." The person who is suitable is the athlete under the Sichuan Eight Demons, named Iron Fist Splitting Mountain Lao Wei. ”

After that, he handed the silver dart in his hand to Jiang Yue and said, "This is their invitation." It's just that four years ago, on the Xichuan Road, I saw Qiu Ling, an eight-armed demon lord of the eighth of the eight demons, robbed a dart player's dart, and they got the dart, and they had to kill the person who guarded the dart. When I saw that the road was uneven, I stepped forward to persuade him, but Qiu Ling was not convinced, so he fought with me. There were many of his men, and I saw that they were invincible, so I had to retreat. I don't know where it is, I put a plum blossom poison needle and defeated them, so that the dart riders and I were relieved. The person who put the needle never showed up. But the Eight Demons decided that I was their enemy. I have heard that he must kill me. I knew I was invincible, so I had to take refuge here. I met Lao Wei outside the village today, if it weren't for the internal strength, it would be good, needless to say that I went to see the Eight Demons, and I was seriously injured today. The kung fu of the five ghosts Jinsha Palm, which has not been practiced, is not so powerful. He just wanted to take advantage of my inattention, so he poisoned him. Fortunately, I was on guard, and if I hit him back with my dantian hard skills, he would not die, but also suffered internal injuries. Since I have accepted the invitation of the Eight Demons, I can't help but go. Now that there are only more than nine months before next year's Dragon Boat Festival, I want to take this opportunity to make some preparations, and I can't stay here. Childe's art industry has not been completed, and I don't want to be Childe's master, which insults Childe's qualifications. There are many sword immortals in the world, if the son has a heart, he should go out and pay attention and visit in the dust. As long as you are not arrogant, can be subordinate, and have a good heart, you will not miss it. ”

Jiang Yue heard that Mingjun was leaving, he was very reluctant, and he couldn't keep it anymore, and he knew that the relationship was very big, so he had to endure the pain and let Mingjun go. From this, I had the idea of going out to find a teacher. Fortunately, Jiang An is in charge at home, and it is foolproof.

So he didn't bring anyone with him, he took a burden, brought more silver taels, and went out to find a mentor. Because there are several places where the ancestors of Hankou buy and sell, Ming Jun often said that there are many prolific strangers in Shu, so Jiang Yue planned to go to Hankou first and pass by the river.

After traveling for more than a month, we arrived in Hankou.

The Jiang family opened several stores, with Hongshantang Pharmacy with the largest capital, and when they heard the arrival of the owner, they united with the shopkeepers to separate the wine and wash the dust.

Jiang Yue was determined to seek a teacher, and he was very bored with these laymen.

After a few days of circling, I skimmed at the trading accounts of each number, and asked where there were heroes who knew martial arts.

The shopkeeper of Hongshantang, named Zhang Xingcai, who came to Wuchang City to have fun, knew that the little owner was good at martial arts, so he invited him to Wuchang to Panhuan for two days and introduced several famous local martial artists to Jiang Yue as friends.

Jiang Yue has been very different since he learned martial arts from Mingjun. There is nothing surprising about this group of martial artists, it is just that they have a lot of experience, they have seen and heard a lot, and they know a lot of martial arts anecdotes and green forest stories from their mouths, and they are eager to do so.

Most of the people mentioned in this matter do not have a precise address, and there is no way to find them. I wanted to stay for a few more days, and decided to enter the river to find strangers.

Among the martial artists, there is a surname named Qin, who makes a good hand of mandarin duck hand guards, and his light body kung fu is also very good, and he is nicknamed the Flying God Falcon.

was originally a descendant of scholars, and Jiang Yue hit it off at first sight, and ordered Jinlan. At this time, it was already the middle of winter, so he planned to stay with Jiang Yue for the New Year, and go to Sichuan together to find teachers and friends.

Jiang Yue was naturally happier when he saw that he had such a confidant partner. Because he was tired of the hustle and bustle of the drugstore, he simply moved to live in Xu Suo's house.

One day, the weather was very good, and the climate in Hankou was mild, although it was not very cold in the middle of winter, so the two agreed to buy a boat and go to the river. The discussion was proper, and he did not make an appointment with others, so he hired a river boat and brought wine and food with him.

After getting on the boat, I saw a clear river, the water and the sky were like a mirror, and I didn't feel that my mind was happy. The more they played, the happier they became, so they simply ordered the boatman to rock the boat to a place on the edge of Parrot Island that was out of the beaten track, and drank to their heart's content.

The boatman rocked the boat over Parrot Island and found a place to anchor. Jiang and Zhang asked to bring the wine and food to the bow of the boat, and the two raised the wine and talked freely.

Just as I was having fun, I suddenly saw a small boat swinging down from the distance, this boat looked pitifully small, there was only one oar on board, and the water was like flying. Jiang Yue was about to say that the boat was going really fast, but before he could finish speaking, the boat had already arrived at the place where the two of them had stopped.

The man in the boat was a thin, withered old man, who wore only a ragged robe with seven piercings and eight holes, but the pulp was very clean.

The boat was less than seven feet from the head and tail, and could accommodate two people at most. On the bow of the ship was a tile teapot, a broken tea bowl, and a gourd for wine.

The old man docked the boat, glanced at Jiang and Zhang, picked up the gourd, and walked to the shore, thinking that he was going to sell wine. The boat was not moored to the shore, but drifted along the water.

Jiang Yue felt surprised, so he said to Xu Suo: "Big brother, look at this old man, I want to be greedy for a cup like life, and when the boat arrives at the shore, he doesn't need to be tied with a rope or anchor, so he goes ashore to sell wine." How about the boat going with the current? ”

By the time he spoke, the ship was gradually going to flow from the shore to the center of the river. Jiang Yue was busy asking the boatman to hold the boat for him.

When the boatman received the order, he hurriedly hooked the boat with a bamboo pole. It is ridiculous to say, except for a few utensils for tea and wine, there is no anchor cable on the ship, not even a rope, as if the old man has no intention of stopping the ship at all.

The boatman had to find a rope on the big boat and tie it to a small stake on his own boat.

Although Zhang Qin was only about thirty years old, he had a lot of experience, and when he saw Jiang Yuedai's various actions of the old man who was in charge of the boat and tied the rope for him, he just pondered and did not come to stop him.

When the boat was tied, they stood up and looked at it carefully. Suddenly, he said to Jiang Yue: "Brother, do you see that old man is suspicious in some places?" ”

Jiang Yue said: "That old man only wears a single shirt on such a cold day, although it is shabby, it is very neat. But when he came ashore, his steps were sluggish, and he didn't look like he had martial arts. It's really hard to see where it came from. Anyway, he is either a stranger in the wind and dust, or a hermit in the mountains and forests, and he is definitely not a human being. When he comes back, why don't we invite him to a drink or two and have a conversation, and then we can find out? ”

Zhang Qin said: "My brother's eyesight is really high, but it's not quite. ”

Jiang Yue was about to ask why, but the old man was already carrying a big gourd of wine, staggering, and turned back from the shore.

As soon as they arrived at the boat of the two, they shouted, "Do you dare to steal my boat while the old man is drinking?" ”

When the boatman saw that the old man was rude, and saw that he was wearing a poor appearance, he was about to scold him.

Jiang Yue hurriedly stopped, jumped ashore, and said to the old man: "After Your Excellency left the ship, I forgot to tie the boat. I saw that your ship was drifting away with the water, and it was about to flow to the center of the river in a blink of an eye, so I asked the boatman to tie it on your behalf, which was a good intention, and there was no intention of stealing. You're going to be wrong. ”

When the old man heard this, he became more and more angry and said, "You guys are all cheating. Now that there are real criminals, do you still have to use strong words? If I had come one step too late, would you not have taken my ship away? Are you deceiving me into being old? ”

Jiang Yue saw that the old man was quite unreasonable and was about to get angry, and suddenly remembered Song Mingjun's parting words, and saw that although the old man was anxious, his eyes were bright, and he didn't dare to make a mistake, he still argued with a smile.

The old man looked at Jiang Yue, and the more he talked, the more angry he became, and then he simply scolded.

Zhang Qin looked at the old man, and the more he felt that he was not an ordinary person, so he flew ashore and gave a deep salute to the old man first: "You want to be angry, this fact is that our friends are troublesome. If you want to steal your ship, you don't have the intention. Your old man is not disgusted, and there is still wine and food left, please go to the boat to talk about it, and let my brothers and sisters use wine to make amends, how about it? ”

When the old man heard this, he suddenly turned his anger into joy and said, "You said earlier that you would invite me to eat and drink, wouldn't it be fine?" ”

When Jiang Yue heard this, he secretly laughed at the old man and scolded himself for a long time, it turned out that he wanted to cheat on wine and eat, which was a good way to cheat on wine.

Because he saw Zhang Qin so respectful and knew that there was a reason, he didn't dare to slack off, so he couldn't help but laugh and boarded the boat. After sitting down, the old man also greeted the two of them, eating and drinking all the way.

Jiang and Zhang couldn't interject to ask the old man's name, so they had to persuade him to drink and toast the food. It's really a dry drink, and it's refreshing.

The two boatmen watched the old man's poverty and hunger, and they were angry, so they quietly untied the rope tied to the boat while the old man was not paying attention. Zhang Qin obviously saw it and pretended not to know.

When the boat had flowed out of the water, he pretended to be shocked and said, "Boatman, how did you inadvertently let the old gentleman's boat run away?" ”

The two boatmen replied: "The river here is in a hurry, and there is nothing tied to the boat on his old man's boat, so there is a small rope, how can he tie it?" This big ship is going to catch up with that small boat, but it's still hard to chase, what can I do? Fortunately, his old man blamed us for not tying up his boat for him, and he must have a way to get the boat back. ”

The old man heard the boatman's words, held the wine glass in one hand, turned around and smiled: "What you said is very right, I am afraid of people stealing, not afraid of it running away." ”

Jiang Yue's heart was more realistic, he didn't know that Zhang Qin was testing the old man's ability, and saw that the boat was drifting down the river, and it was seven or eight feet away from the big boat, so he hurriedly shouted: "The boatman quickly untie the cable, rush to Jiangxin, and intercept the boat back for the old man." ”

Before the boatman could reply, the old man hurriedly said: "Wait, it's okay, my boat can't run, I'll chase it after I finish eating and drinking, you don't have to bother." ”

Zhang Qin hurriedly said: "I know that the old-timers have the stunt of Dengping and crossing the water, but I just took this opportunity to pay respects." ”

Jiang Yue didn't open his mouth when he realized this, and he was very suspicious in his heart: "This Dengping Kung Fu is nothing more than to describe the kung fu of the light body to the point of reaching the peak, such as walking on the water." In the past, I heard Song Mingjun say that it was a little bit of a reliance. Look at the boat flowing farther and farther, this vast river, no wind and three feet of waves, let you light your body to the extreme, the river is separated by dozens of feet, how to fly? ”

Looking at the old man carefully, except for the light in his eyes, he couldn't see anything special.

I wanted to ask him for his name several times, but he used words to divert him. After drinking for a while, the boat was further separated, and with the eyes of Jiang and Zhang, they could only see that they were in the middle of the head, revealing some black spots like floating poles.

The old man was swept away, and he ate a cup and emptied the plate. Then he got up, drunk, drunk, and staggered, and walked to the side of the boat.

Jiang Yue was afraid that he would get drunk and lose his foot in the river, and when he reached out and pulled his left hand, it was as if the old man handed him a soft paper ball in his hand.

Jiang Yue was startled, the word "bad" had not yet been shouted, and then he saw that the old man had stepped onto the water, but he did not sink, turned back to the two of them, said "goodbye", kicked Lizhula, boarded the water waves, and looked at the head of the stream and walked like flying.

The people on the boat were stunned. Jiang Chujian has the most divine power, and the two boatmen are suspected of being lit by narcissus, so they are so frightened that they kneel on the bow of the boat and kowtow to their heads.

Zhang Qin saw the old man's actions first, and knew that he was very human. At first, I suspected that he would climb the Ping to cross the water, and deliberately wanted to show off in front of people.

This kind of light body kung fu, although it can lift the qi to walk on the water, but at most it is only three or four zhang away, and it is also very difficult to walk in the way of dragonflies.

Later, when he saw that the boat was far away, he was worried that the old man could not get off the stage, but who knew that he would wade into the water and climb the waves, as if walking on the ground.

Those who take Wanzhang Hongtao as a broad road like this have never even heard of it. I deeply hate myself for being a lot of people who are suitable for a lot of simplicity and slowness, and I have missed out on the peerless strangers.

Jiang Yue also hated himself for not asking the old man's name. When I was out of my mind, I suddenly felt a ball of paper in my hand, and I remembered that it was given by the old man.

Hurriedly opened it to see, it read "Chi Ru Yellow Crane, Sichuan Travel should be fast" eight words, the pen is strong, like a dragon and snake flying.

The two read it once, but they couldn't see it thoroughly. Because of the above saying that "Sichuan should be fast", I want to enter Sichuan as soon as possible, so as not to miss the opportunity.

discussed with Zhang Qin and persuaded him not to worry about family affairs and leave before the year.

Zhang Qin had no choice but to change the original arrangement, and set to entrust all the affairs at home to a reliable person within ten days, and leave in time. At that moment, he told the boatmen not to go out.

He also coaxed and said: "Shicai, this immortal has something to say, he has a fate with us, so he came to light." If the heavenly machine is revealed, there is no blessing or curse. He also gave two taels of silver for wine. The boatman nodded in agreement.

The two returned to Zhang's house, and the next day Zhang Qin went to take care of everything.

That Jiang Yue is looking for a teacher, once he misses it, he will not regret it.

Because the old man's note had the words "Chi Ru Yellow Crane", if he said goodbye when he broke up, he suspiciously asked him to wait at the Yellow Crane Tower.

Fortunately, there were still a few days of delay, Zhang Qin couldn't be separated because of things, and he didn't force an appointment, so he ran to the Yellow Crane Tower to drink every day, until the black people dispersed, hoping to have some adventures.

And on the seventh day, while he was sitting alone and meditating, he suddenly saw the people talking to each other.

When I looked back, I saw a monk and a layman, dressed strangely, looking vicious, drinking at a table behind him.

These two people are the iron-headed Arhat Fa Yuan and Chu Sui, their appearance is ugly and abnormal, and their eyes are fierce.

As soon as Jiang Yue saw these two people, he knew that they were not idle characters, so he carefully watched the actions of the two of them. The place where Chu Sui was sitting was behind Jiang Yue, and when Jiang Yue turned around, the two of them first took a face-to-face.

That Chu Sui saw that Jiang Yue was radiant and extraordinary, and knew that he was not an ordinary drinker.

Then he said to Fa Yuan: "Master, you see a young scholar on the table over there, his eyes are very bright, as if his martial arts are very deep, can Master tell which faction it is?" ”

Fa Yuan listened to Chu Sui's words, so he looked at Jiang Yue, and it happened that Jiang Yue was looking back at the two of them, and couldn't help but take a look at Fa Yuan again.

Fa Yuan couldn't help but be surprised when he saw that Jiang Yue was plump and beautiful, his demeanor was inside, and his heroic appearance was outward, and he was simply born with fairy bones.

whispered to Chu Sui: "If this person talks about meritorious deeds, at most martial arts have just started; When it comes to swordsmanship, it's even worse. However, this person has too a strong foundation and is born with a special talent. He didn't know swordsmanship, and of course he hadn't been recruited by the Bashan faction. Without further ado, you and I will run out of wine and rice, and you will wait in Shashi first, and then I will go and lead him to the entrance, so as not to be taken in by the Bashan faction again. ”

The master and apprentice used the wine and rice, and Chu Sui finished the meal account and went to Shashi by himself. After Fa Yuan waited for Chu Sui to leave, he pretended to look at the river scenery by the railing, and watched Jiang Yue attentively, the more he looked at it, the more he loved it.

That Jiang Yue saw Fa Yuan and Chu Sui constantly looking at him with his eyes, and after a while, he saw them talking to each other in secret, whispering secretly, and the sneaky situation was already suspicious in his heart.

Later, when he saw Chu Sui leaving, he stared at him twice, and felt more and more that the two of them had bad intentions towards him.

Although Jiang Yue is not profound, he usually listens to Song Mingjun often talk about the differences between people who are proficient in kung fu and swordsmanship, and it is estimated that if these two people are not good at themselves, it will not be easy to get rid of them. If the monk doesn't leave after eating, he may not be spying on himself.

If you are alone, you may be difficult to deal with; I want to go, I am a young man, and I feel a little weak.

I don't know if I thought I was born in a shallow way, and I didn't offend anyone, or if I had a misunderstanding. So he also pretended to look at the river by the railing, and watched the cars and horses coming and going on the street, pretending not to mind.

While he was watching, he suddenly saw a short man in the crowd and greeted him.

If you look closely, it is the old man who he has been thinking about for days and days, and he can't help but be overjoyed in his heart.

Just as he was about to open his mouth to call, the old man hurriedly compared to him, and suddenly a very small voice blew into his ear and said: "The thief monk sitting on your left is the demon of Putuo Mountain, he has taken a fancy to you and wants to accept you as an apprentice." But if you refuse, he will kill you. I don't want to show up at the moment, if you want to worship me as a teacher, you can get out of it, and I will wait for you under Parrot Island. The monk wants to wait for you to come downstairs and take you away by coercion. If you want to make a difference, talk to him first and play a trick on him. ”

When he had finished speaking, he did not listen to the sound. When he looked at the old man again, he was far away.

Speaking of this, the reader may think that the author is deliberately making a big statement, otherwise the old man said these words downstairs, although the voice is small, since Jiang Yue can still hear it, then Fa Yuan is also a foreign sword immortal, there are several characters in the sword immortals, and they are close at hand, why can't they hear it at all.

You must know that the sword of the sword fairy is originally a skill of luck, and it is at the top, so that the body and sword can be one, but it can be rigid or soft, big or small.

The old man spoke with a kind of kung fu called Baili Chuanyin, which was completely Qi practice.

He practiced his innate true qi as fine as a gossamer, looked at the target, and sent it out, straight into the other party's ears.

The voice was thin, but it was unusually clear. It is said that if you hug upstairs and downstairs, the distance of more than ten zhang is ten miles and hundreds of miles, and it can also be transmitted.

The sword immortal takes the head of a person a hundred miles away, which is also the same reason. Don't talk about it, get back to business.

It is said that Jiang Yue heard the old man's words and understood why the monk paid attention to himself.

And when he heard that the old man had promised to take him as an apprentice, he was overjoyed. I was worried that I was being watched by the monk, and it was not easy to get out.

He looked at the monk, as if he had never heard the old man talk to him, and knew that he was at a high level.

So I settled down and secretly thought of a way to get out. Na Fa Yuan originally wanted to wait for Jiang Yue to go downstairs, deliberately inflating his own value and showing off his amazing skills, so that Jiang Yue would come to ask for advice.

Later, although Jiang Yue glanced at him twice, he was just like other drinkers, and he didn't pay much attention, so he couldn't help but secretly scolded him twice.

He and Jiang Yue spent a while, but they didn't realize that it was the beginning of Shen Weiyou, and the wine was scattered.

There were only two of them left on the Yellow Crane Tower, and each of them pretended to look at the river view, each with their own plans.

Jiang Yue couldn't bear it anymore at this time, but because he listened to the old man's words, if he left, the monk would follow him downstairs and force him to go with him, and he couldn't think of a way to get out in a hurry.

was contemplating how to move, but the bartender who was funny knew that he was a good customer because Jiang Yue had been coming for a few days, and when he saw that he was bored sitting alone, he came up and said courteously: "The big officials have run out of wine and rice for a long time, and they must be a little hungry at this time." Do you need to make a little fresh fish and shrimp from the river in the kitchen? ”

When Jiang Yue heard this, he suddenly touched the inspiration, and said with a smile: "I have to wait for a friend to discuss an important matter, so I said that we would meet here in the evening, and I will probably come soon." If you have something new like this, you can go and make it with me. I'm a little anxious at this time, and it's convenient to go downstairs. If my friend comes, he will say that I will come when I go, and tell him not to go away. ”

After that, he took out another ingot of silver, told him to store it on the counter, made a recipe for the first account, asked the bartender for a little paper, and went downstairs and left.

Fa Yuan was waiting impatiently, and wanted to step forward to show off his means. And listening to Jiang Yue's words, he thought that things gather like others, this person is so high, and his friends must not be bad.

I plan to simply endure the pills again and see who is coming. It is estimated that Jiang Yue will come back when he goes to the toilet, so he doesn't want to follow. Because of the boredom of sitting down, he also asked the bartender to add two dishes and drink alone in the river.

After waiting for a long time, I didn't see Jiang Yue come back, so I was so strange, I thought, "Did this person see through my line of hiding?" ”

The winter days are short, and at this time it is already full of colors, and there are four episodes of faint crows. The bartender put the lamp in his hand and asked Fa Yuan why he didn't use the wine and food.

Fa Yuan then probed the bartender and said: "The minister who left just now, unlike the accent here, must often come here to eat and drink, do you know who his surname is and where his home is?" ”

The bartender had long felt that Fa Yuan was vicious, and he was not taboo in meat and wine, and he was a little strange, but now he saw him listening to Jiang Yue, how could he tell him the truth.

He replied: "Although this prime minister has been here twice, because he is a passer-by, I only know his surname Jiang, and I don't know where he lives." ”

Fa Yuan couldn't ask why, so he was unhappy. I also thought that since the young man said that he was dating friends to discuss important matters, maybe when he went to the toilet, he met on the road, or he didn't mean to avoid himself.

He planned to stay in Hankou for two days, so as to find this person and take him as a disciple, so as not to be caught by the Bashan faction.
