Chapter 45: In Trouble 2
Xiong Zhiping opened the door and saw Yu Tianxiong sweeping the dead leaves on the ground in the courtyard alone, his heart suddenly became hot, and he came to Yu Tianxiong's side and said: "The second brother didn't expect you to get up so early, now that the weather is getting colder, you should sleep in the room for a while, why get up so early to clean up these dead branches and leaves, these things are all done by the next people, why bother the second brother to do it himself." ”
Yu Tianxiong turned his face and smiled: "Big brother, don't forget that I am also a member of this family now, and I should make a little effort, last night I found that the wind outside was blowing very strongly, presumably this morning the courtyard will be full of branches and leaves, affecting the appearance of the entire compound, just a little earlier than the eldest brother, are we all young people now?" You can also exercise by waking up early, and it is also good for your body. ”
Xiong Zhiping said: "What the second brother said is very true, the so-called early morning three empty, the morning air is so fresh, there is no harm to the body, the second brother waited for you to sweep the courtyard, came to the Forget Worry Pavilion not far in front, I will talk to you." At this time, he suddenly remembered what Xiumei said to him last night, he must be careful to watch out for this person, and his face suddenly became extremely serious.
Yu Tianxiong nodded, silently agreed, but said in his heart: "I don't know what you have to say to me in this so-called Forget Worry Pavilion again, I wonder how his face has become so serious, it looks really scary, as if there is a layer of ice on his face, cold in his heart, "I can't help but shudder." "Is there any flaw in the speech these days, it can't be! These days, if you pay attention to what you say, you're afraid of revealing any flaws, if you really see something by him, then there is no way, in the end, the paper can't contain the fire, "Thinking of this, my heart began to calm down a lot." I saw Xiong Zhiping as if he was dragging his steps like iron, walking towards the Forget Worry Pavilion.
Yu Tianxiong's speed of sweeping the floor also increased a lot, and it didn't take long for the dead leaves on the ground to be swept away, and he walked straight to the direction of the Forget Worry Pavilion, only to see Xiong Zhiping sitting quietly on the stone bench in the pavilion alone, without a trace of expression on his face, as if the sky was about to fall, it was strange that he seemed to become another person today as usual, which was really elusive.
At this time, his pace wanted to slow down but couldn't slow down, it was a blessing or a curse, it was a disaster that couldn't be avoided, no matter what, everything had to be faced seriously, even if he could hide for a while, he couldn't hide for a lifetime, and his heart strode into the pavilion and said, "Big brother is looking for me?" ”
Xiong Zhiping nodded and said, "Second brother, sit down first!" ”
Yu Tianxiong sat down, and Xiong Zhiping said, "Second brother! You've been in Xiongfu for a while, and I don't know if there's something I can say. ”
Yu Tianxiong said: "Big brother, if you have something to say, you don't have to be so stubborn." ”
Xiong Zhiping said: "Second brother, what are your plans in the future?" ”
Yu Tianxiong said: "The eldest brother has been well nourished in the past few days, and the injuries of the body have been roughly fully recovered, and I will probably recuperate for a few more days, and the internal strength will be fully recovered and exerted, I still ask the four madmen to recover the blood debt, and the enemy with the sword, but with my body's kung fu revenge is simply more difficult than ascending to the sky, I am not the opponent of the four mad at all, how can I talk about revenge, I am really a man in vain, if I can get the help of the eldest brother, I will definitely be able to be like a fish in water." ”
Xiong Zhiping asked in a questioning tone: "Second brother, then what methods can I use to help you, so that you can be like a fish in water?" ”
Yu Tianxiong paused and said: "The four madmen don't have any hatred with the eldest brother, with the character of the eldest brother, he must not be able to poison the four madness, as long as the eldest brother agrees to lend me the magic skill of blowing flowers to practice hard for many days, and give full play to this skill, it will be more than enough to deal with the four madness." ”
Xiong Zhiping said in his heart: "I didn't expect Yu Tianxiong to be like Xiumei said, his main purpose is still in this secret book, and his real purpose is still in the position of the leader of this martial arts alliance, so as to dominate the rivers and lakes and command the heroes, this desire is burning more and more in the lust, I can't let him be carried away by the so-called interests, let him fall deeper and deeper, I have to think of a way to let him be rescued from it." ”
Thinking of this, he suddenly smiled and said: "Second brother, it's not that I'm reluctant to hand over this secret book to you, what I said to you before, I don't know if you remember, these words were not made up casually before, this does have a precedent, about four hundred years ago, at that time, there were two most shocking secrets in the rivers and lakes, one is the blowing flower magic skill, the other is the Biyue whirlwind sword, but the reputation of the Biyue whirlwind sword is excited, but it is a well-known kung fu in the rivers and lakes, but the blowing flower magic skill is not as powerful as my ancestors imagined, So it took a lot of effort and sweat in this kung fu to constantly transform the deficiencies above, and gradually improve it, and finally fell to Sun Shan, slightly inferior to the Biyue Whirlwind Sword. ”
Yu Tianxiong listened attentively and said: "Then your ancestors are willing to fall into the Biyue Whirlwind Sword, and they will always rank second, I really don't want to be what your ancestors think?" ”
Xiong Zhiping shook his head and said: "In fact, my ancestors are also people, and there is no difference between them and ordinary people, I don't want to be ordinary forever, always second, and fall behind others, so I continue to recruit disciples, and my reputation in the rivers and lakes is great, so that more people in the rivers and lakes can understand the wonders of this kung fu, and teach my years of experience and mental methods to the right."
Fang, but I didn't find any particularly serious abnormalities when I practiced the basic skills, I only felt that everyone's face had a slight twitch, thinking that this was normal. ”
Yu Tianxiong said: "Then what happened? ”
Xiong Zhiping said: "It is precisely because of a moment of negligence, when practicing the first move Bing Ling Flying, all the disciples seemed to be fixed, standing there motionless, the muscles and veins of the whole body spasmed, and the internal force was exhausted, and as a result, everyone became a dry corpse, snapped, and fell to the ground in response, and now I still have palpitations when I think about it, so the ancestral rules of the Xiong family stipulate that the Xiong family shall not accept any disciples in the future, and it will be passed down from generation to generation." If this story is not told to you, you must say that the eldest brother will say one thing and do another, and he will be reluctant to give you this secret to practice the peerless kung fu above. ”
Yu Tianxiong nodded and said: "What the eldest brother is saying now, I also understand the truth, a gentleman does not win people's love, and the kung fu on this secret book is so strong, if I really forcibly practice the above kung fu, then I will definitely become a dry person above, and I will find other ways to take revenge in the future," although he said so, "I don't think so in my heart, this kind of story can also be made up, and the ghost will believe that one day I will get this secret in my hands, and I don't believe that it will regurgitate the internal force and become a dry person, Don't blame me for using the strongest possible means against you. ”
Xiong Zhiping said: "It's good that you can understand the power now, lest you go wrong into this way, but I still want to advise you, good and evil are just a difference in thought, it depends on how a person chooses." ”
Yu Tianxiong said: "What the eldest brother said really made me feel enlightened, I must not do anything with my conscience from now on, I must think before and after doing anything, what should be done and what should not be done,"
At this time, Xiong Zhiping's face returned to a smile, and said: "Second brother talked to you today, you and I have gained a lot, as a big brother, I have to advise you, you must be down-to-earth, step by step, there is no step to the sky in the world, just take today's martial arts alliance leader, although the age is similar to ours, although he can be respected by all sects, but he also has his troubles, every day for all sects and contradictions between sects to solve problems, everything must be in the sect in the rivers and lakes in the stage of immortality, You should also pay attention to your position not to be easily shaken, in fact, sitting in the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance respected by the world, and the position you are in is the position that all sects want to seize, but Liu Qiankun in the position is walking on thin ice, I am afraid that one day his position will be shaken, compared with us ordinary people, it is more hard, more tired, think that we are still an ordinary person to live a relatively easy life. ”
Yu Tianxiong echoed: "Yes! Sitting in the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance is indeed a hundred times harder than ordinary people, in fact, it is like we are willing to be an ordinary person, not worried about anything, not intrigued by any fame and power, and ordinary is true. ”
Xiong Zhiping said: "I hope that the second brother will keep in mind what you said today, and don't be carried away by these fame and fortune, fame and fortune are just passing clouds, and they will be fleeting in the blink of an eye, turning into a piece of filth." ”
Yu Tianxiong knows that today's conversation with him is completely to point out the topic of his heart, targeting him everywhere, as if an invisible force is stabbing his heart, although he looks plain, what he says makes people have no room to talk back, this person is scheming, and he already knows what I think in my heart? It's really like he knows what's going on, otherwise he wouldn't be so clear. Calm down and said: "Big brother must have heard a lot of gossip about me outside these days, probably suspecting that I came to your Xiong family for another purpose, what is the plan?" My manly husband stands up to the sky, and he will never do anything to be sorry for my eldest brother with a clear conscience! Suddenly, his face became serious and said, "If the eldest brother thinks that I am here to trouble you, I will immediately pack up and leave the Xiong family tomorrow." ”
Xiong Zhiping was shocked by what he said later, and said: "Second brother, this is serious, you and I are brothers with Jin Lan, we are originally heart-to-heart, and we have nothing to talk about, is there something offensive about what the eldest brother said just now, which makes your heart uneasy and stings your heart." ”
Yu Tianxiong said: "I have not avenged my revenge now, and it is a difficult problem to solve the four madnesses, how can I think about the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance, not to mention that the masters of the entire Central Plains are like clouds, and the kung fu is endless, it is not easy to sit on the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance." When I was in trouble, my eldest brother sacrificed his life to save my life, and then called me a brother and a confidant, and now it is normal and reasonable to have doubts about my identity, in fact, the eldest brother thinks about me everywhere, how can I blame the eldest brother. ”
Xiong Zhiping said: "I won't say much about the rest of the second brother's words, it hurts my feelings if I say too much, you have to think before and after doing anything, otherwise it will definitely be self-defeating and harmful, and in two days when your injury is fully recovered, I will pass you a set of practice methods, this set of practice methods is something that I have spent several years of hard work to develop, as long as you follow its steps to practice, don't count a few days of hard work, you will definitely increase your internal strength, and it will be more than enough to deal with the four madness, and revenge is just around the corner," After speaking, he stood up and walked outside the courtyard, Yu Tianxiong didn't stay in this Forget Worry Pavilion for too long, and left in a hurry.
In the past two or three days, Xiong Zhiping kept observing, watching out for his every move, and did not find any abnormal behavior in Yu Tianxiong, and after a long time, his vigilance against him slowly faded, and he didn't even take Yu Tianxiong's main purpose of coming to Xiong's house to heart, and returned to the same as usual, Xiumei and Xiong Zhiping felt that Yu Tianxiong would not bring them too much threat in Xiong's house, and believed that Yu Tianxiong was not the kind of person he imagined, so he relaxed his vigilance.
At the beginning, Yu Tianxiong took every step, every thing he did had to be cautious, he was afraid that he would expose his shortcomings, so that they could see what flaws came out, a nervous heart was always surrounding him, how should it be good, there was always a nervous mood stirring, seeing the change in their attitude towards him in the past few days, it was completely the same as at the beginning, so he returned to his original mentality, and they merged into this big family, and there was no suspicion of each other.
Time flies so fast, more than ten days of time shuttle in a blink of an eye, this day happens to be the wedding of Xiong Zhiping and Xiumei, Xiong Zhiping is wearing a black brocade forging robe, tied with a big red satin on his body with a big red flower, riding on a white horse, people are particularly conspicuous, people are extraordinarily spiritual, it is really a sentence people are in good spirits at happy events, full of joyful smiles, in his mind, from today onwards, he will never leave with his most beloved person, and will always be with him until old age, From young to white-headed, there must be a lot of topics to talk about, and how to live the future together, and how happy it is for children to play under their knees! Thinking of this, there is a kind of happiness and joy in the heart immediately surging into the heart, unconsciously there are a few intoxication, along the way the gongs and drums are noisy, firecrackers are ringing, the smell of sulfuric acid is scattered everywhere, the onlookers are endless, the whole street is very lively, there are eight sedan chairs followed by the sedan chair, the sedan chair man carries the sedan chair rhythmically, Xiumei in the sedan chair is dressed in a phoenix crown, the smile on her face and the dress on her body looks more bright and shining, and there is an indescribable beauty of the superbirth, after a while, he lifted his red hijab and looked at the sedan window, See if you have arrived at Xiong Mansion, at this time she hopes to marry Xiong Zhiping as soon as possible, enter the cave room, and become husband and wife, the arrival of this day is what she has been looking forward to for a long time, thinking of this, her face showed a burst of shyness, and her heart was a burst of fever, burning in her whole body, "What's going on today, but my heart is in chaos." The speed of beating is a little more violent than before, is this how every woman feels when she is newly married? ”
Just when Xiumei was thinking uncertainly at this time, the eight sedan chairs had been flat on the ground, so quiet that there was no movement at all, presumably had arrived at the door of the red wall courtyard, Xiong Zhiping immediately got off the horse, patted the dust on his body with both hands, and came to the door of the sedan chair with his head held high, only to hear an old man shouting: "Kick the sedan door," Xiong Zhiping kicked the sedan door three times with his foot, the sedan door opened, and there was a teenage girl holding an orange plate for the bride to touch, after touching, Xiong Zhiping reached out to hold the bride's hand and walked out of the sedan door, After the head quickly lifted the rice sieve to cover the bride's head, the bride out of the sedan door, stepped on the tiles, the groom led her across the charcoal fire, and then the firecrackers crackled again, deafening, Xiumei then covered her ears, and the groom stepped into the hall door, all the guests saw the bride and groom have entered the hall and stood up, there are three old men sitting in the middle of the hall, next to an old man said: "The beautiful scenery of the good day has arrived, worship heaven and earth, worship heaven and earth, worship the high hall twice, three husbands and wives worship, after worshipping, Xiong Zhiping picked up the bride's red hijab with a weighing rod, The bride and groom will always be united and satisfied, when Xiong Zhiping saw Xiumei's extraordinarily unearthly makeup, he couldn't help but be attracted by her beauty, but he stood there motionless, as if he was set to the soul, usually the two of them together did not feel how beautiful she was, and now standing in front of him seemed to be as beautiful as a fairy, and all the guests felt the same way as him, and they kept watching and boasting.
Xiumei walked up to him and stood side by side, lightly bumped him with her elbow and said, "Zhiping, why are you standing here stupidly?" It's not the first time you've seen me, and you have to look at me with such eyes, there are so many guests waiting for us here. ”
At this time, Xiong Zhiping came to his senses for a while, immediately looked away from her face, smiled at all the guests, and said: "Relatives and friends, today I am fortunate to have all of you to participate in my wedding with Xiumei, I am really grateful, at this time I feel deeply flattered, today specially prepared good wine and good food for everyone to enjoy, must eat and drink enough, in order to show that I am the friendship of the landlord." ”
A person stood up and said: "You are a figure with a head and a face in the entire capital or in the entire rivers and lakes, and we are your relatives, and we also have light on our faces!" We are also very honored to be able to attend your wedding. We take this opportunity today to toast the bride and groom, I wish the bride and groom a toast, I wish you good things in pairs, hundreds of heads to old age, many children and grandchildren, I will do it first as a tribute! ”
Xiong Zhiping raised his wine glass and said, "Thank you Uncle Cousin for your kindness, Xiumei also made this glass," they glanced at each other, their eyes conveyed strong affection, and they raised their wine glasses and drank in.
All the people at each table were eating, talking, and talking to each other so speculatively, Xiong Zhiping and Xiumei saw that all their relatives had a happy demeanor, and they were also indescribably happy in their hearts, and they were very satisfied that so many people could come to their wedding today and get the blessings of so many people.
