Chapter Seventy-One: Moving the Corpse 2
Yun Tian said: "Do you still need to ask about this!" Master's kung fu is a hundred times stronger than ours, which is simply a world of difference. ”
Mei Jinlong nodded and said: "What Senior Brother said is true, we are indeed worlds apart from Shizun in kung fu, think about the duel between Shizun and Gurank, we can only have a draw, and finally end up with the same fate, and die in the maple forest, with our current kung fu can compete with the master of the Western Regions, the toughness of the so-called will only cost our lives, then our Kongtong faction will be wiped out, and it will disappear in the rivers and lakes." If you want to fight, you must think long-term to have a certain chance of winning. ”
The disciples of the Kongtong Sect also had some truth when they heard what the new head said, and they kept nodding their heads in agreement.
Zhuo Wei took two steps forward and said: "Now we can't fight hard with the masters of the Western Regions with our strength, so how should we think in the long run, so that we can win steadily." ”
Mei Jinlong's attitude was very calm and unhurried: "Now the heads of the various sects and the masters of the Liu League are imprisoned in the abandoned Lu'an Ancient Temple, the disciples of each faction have the same mood as us, and they all want to quickly rescue their own heads and the current martial arts alliance masters to maintain the order of the rivers and lakes, and return the rivers and lakes to a peace, now the disciples of all the sects are passionate, the same hatred of the enemy, and the unity of the outside, everyone is the greatest strength, otherwise to go alone is to dig their own graves and give their lives in vain, Twenty years ago, it was predicted that the catastrophe of the rivers and lakes that would be sent out twenty years later must have people with the spiritual heart sword and the magic dragon trick to be the saviors of the rivers and lakes, in order to save the rivers and lakes from the water and fire. ”
Zhuo Wei said: "According to the person who meets this condition now, that is Liu Xin, the fourth protector of the Cangshan faction, and now his kung fu is the strongest in the entire rivers and lakes, and he is destined to be the savior, and only he can turn things around." ”
Mei Jinlong said: "This is right, Liu Xin is indeed the savior of our rivers and lakes now, with his head as the horse, everything is obeyed by him, but don't act recklessly, otherwise you will be startled, and your life will be in vain, now everyone should not be too anxious, as the so-called anxious can't eat hot tofu, in the end things are getting more and more complicated, self-defeating." ”
Yun Tianchang lost his voice and said: "I usually blame my little chicken belly, intrigue with the head of my junior brother everywhere, think about things carefully, and almost make a big mistake, and I hope that the head of the family will be punished heavily." After speaking, he knelt down with a snap.
Mei Jinlong saw his actions like this, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to support Yun Tianchang's arm and said: "Senior brother, you must not be like this, please hurry up, you have been blinded by revenge for a while, even if you really commit a monstrous disaster, I will not punish you, there is no overnight feud between our senior brothers, and it is our biggest goal to unite and carry forward the Kongtong faction in the rivers and lakes, otherwise how can we be worthy of the dead head and the head of the Bandai of the creation faction." ”
Yun Tianchang was moved in his heart when he heard his words, slowly stood up, and said: "Since the head of the sect does not hold me accountable for the mistakes I made before, everything can be magnanimous and the overall situation is incomparable to us. ”
Mei Jinlong said: "Senior brother, please hurry up, I still have something to tell you." ”
When Yun Tianchang and his group heard this, they all stood up, and Yun Tianchang said, "Do you have anything else to command?" ”
Mei Jinlong said: "This time, if you meet those masters in the Western Regions again, it will inevitably be a big tear, and it is inevitable that innocent deaths will be injured, senior brother This time, you will personally supervise the kung fu of all the disciples of the Kongtong faction, and improve their kung fu cultivation in a short period of time, and you must not be sloppy." ”
Yun Tianchang arched his hand and said, "Obey."
Mei Jinlong said: "I will first go to the study to write this letter, and contact all the disciples of each sect to discuss how to join forces with those masters in the Western Regions to adopt some measures. ”
After speaking, all the disciples said in unison: "Congratulations to the master." ”
Mei Jinlong turned around and walked towards the study, walked into the study, picked up a handful of paper on the desk and put it flat on the table, put the pen and ink on the inkstone, the wolf brush on the inkstone paper like a dragon and a snake, in the blink of an eye has written one or twenty letters, and then carefully tied the written letters to the pigeon's legs, one by one the carrier pigeon flew into the air. The carrier pigeon flapped its wings and flew in all directions.
Mei Jinlong thought in his heart: "I hope this appeal can play a role, only the strength of the people is the greatest, in fact, it is not easy to deal with those masters, even if it is a catastrophe, there should be a solution, the most uneasy thing for me is to let the disciples of various sects innocently lose their lives, this is too worthless," Thinking of this, there was always a feeling of anxiety stirring in my heart.
In the past two or three days, all the disciples of the Kongtong faction have made great progress in kung fu under the guidance and supervision of Yun Tianchang, and they cannot be said of the same, Mei Jinlong saw that all the disciples practiced so fast, and there was an indescribable joy in his heart, in order to avenge the head of the sect as the driving force, today is such an achievement, the most grateful is still Senior Brother Yun Tianchang, if there is no strict supervision from him, how can there be such a speed.
On the fourth day, all the disciples wore linen and wore filial piety and followed a four-wheeled carriage pulled by two horses, on which a pitch-black coffin was placed horizontally and drove slowly to the west along the mountain road.
It took them three days to reach the maple grove, and the whole maple grove was in shambles, there were traces of fighting everywhere, and many of the trees had been cut down, and the branches and leaves were removed and placed on the ground in a disorderly manner.
All the disciples of the Kongtong faction used the sharp swords in their hands to keep shaking the dead branches and leaves on the ground, hoping to easily find the body of the head Luo Binkui, but they never expected that in the past ten days, the ground was covered with a thick layer of red maple leaves, and there was no way to find Luo Binkui's body, and everyone was at a loss in the search.
Mei Jinlong couldn't help but sigh when he saw the expressions of all the disciples and said: "This maple forest stretches for about ten miles away, if you look for it without a purpose like this, even if you look for it for a few months, you won't see any results, I think there is only one way to find the master's Dharma body more effectively." ”
Yun Tianchang couldn't wait to ask: "What kind of good way is it, you might as well say it, it's better than blindly looking for it." ”
Mei Jinlong said: "This method is to use our strength to roll up the dead branches and leaves on the ground, and look for them section by section, or it will not take long to find them, so that not only can you save a short time, but also find it very smoothly, so that you can kill two birds with one stone, and you say that this method is good." ”
All the disciples nodded and said: "This method is very good, if you really blindly look for it, don't you delay for a long time, you may not be able to see the effect, it is worthy of the wonderful method that the master came up with." ”
All the disciples dispersed, a group of five people separated, sat on the ground in a circle, their luck breathing, straight through the dantian, instantly a stream of true qi shot out from the body, where the true qi went, the maple leaves rolled up wave after wave like a wave, and in the blink of an eye, the ground covered by branches and leaves dozens of zhang away was empty, and nothing was found, only the footprints of the fight were undoubtedly revealed, indicating that this place had been torn apart.
All the disciples did not give up because of this, and carried out the same method, drawing scoops according to the gourd, and deduced the three people according to this example, only to find that there was a corpse not far from them and holding a deadly double soul sword in both hands, at this time the sword had been combined into one, and the sword body became particularly blue and weird under the sunlight, they saw this scene, their eyes were hot, and tears came out of their eyes, knowing that this person was their own head Luo Binkui, and his legs bounced and took off quickly to Luo Binkui's side, only to find that Luo Binkui's face did not have a painful look, but a hint of a smile.
Yun Tianchang was very surprised to see Luo Binkui's face after his death, and asked, "Senior Brother, I don't understand something, why didn't Master Zun have any painful expression on his face when he died?" But on the contrary, there is a hint of a smile on his face, which is really incomprehensible. ”
Mei Jinlong said: "I also felt a kind of inexplicability when I saw Shizun's Dharma body before, I can't find the problem, people are very painful when they are separated from life and death, but Shizun does not have this expression, but it is to let the smile replace the pain, presumably the thing that can make him happy before dying is to find his rare admirable opponent in this maple forest, so there will be no pain to replace it only a smile, presumably the Gurank who is with him is not far from here, I believe that there is no pain on his face, He will also have a happy smile on his face. ”
Yun Tianchang was puzzled and said, "No! This can also be guessed by you, I don't believe you still have this ability. ”
Mei Jinlong said: "Senior brothers and junior brothers, you carefully look for Gu Lanke's body, which is not far from here. ”
All of them went separately to look for it, and it didn't take long for a little junior brother to hurriedly run over and say, "Qiqi Zhangmen Guozheng found a corpse not far from here, holding the meteor hammer with both hands, presumably he may be the one who fought with the master." ”
Mei Jinlong asked, "What is the facial expression of that person?" ”
The little junior brother said, "That person does have a smile on his face, and there is no pain. ”
Yun Tianchang smiled and said: "The head brother really has you, such an expression can also be guessed by you, the person I admire the most now is you." ”
Mei Jinlong patted Yun Tianchang on the shoulder and said, "Let's not pull parents here now, let's go and see for ourselves!" Let's see if his smile is the same as Shizun's. ”
Yun Tianchang nodded and said, "This is also worth seeing," and then followed the little junior brother to the crowd watching there, kicking with his feet, but his mouth kept nagging: "It's all your fault, it's all your fault, it's all your blame for letting our Kongtong sect's master be buried in the maple forest, and the corpse wilderness." ”
Mei Jinlong felt a sense of suffocation when he saw the disciples using such brutal methods, and immediately said in a deep voice: "Stop, hurry up and stop me, what kind of system will you become if you continue like this." ”
When the disciples heard Mei Jinlong's shout, they immediately stopped and stood there motionless, staring at his face with their eyes intently, Mei Jinlong said: "This duel is completely a fair duel, there is no grudge at all, and they still hold the weapon in their hands until the last moment, and they still have a smile on their faces, do you know why?" ”
Everyone shook their heads vigorously and did not say a word, Yun Tianchang suddenly spoke; "Then why did he hold the weapon tightly in his hand, and there was a smile on his face, it has not changed from beginning to end, I believe that this answer is only known to the two of them, and it is indeed an unsolvable mystery."
Mei Jinlong smiled indifferently and said: "This answer is very simple, they each hold their weapons tightly until they die and do not let go, that is they know that the other party's kung fu has reached an unfathomable level, can not be taken lightly, otherwise they all have to worry about their lives, before they die, it should be painful and replaced by a smile, the reason is that they can find someone who can defend against their opponents before they die, and the two of them use the same method to end up playing together, and they don't understand a truth until they die: in fact, death is not terrible, The terrible thing is that they die without finding a suitable object, so they die without painful expressions, but only with overflowing smiles.
Everyone seemed to understand some truth when they heard him say this, so they felt that Gu Lanke's approach was indeed a bit excessive, Yu Liang couldn't help but sigh, Yun Tian said: "The matter has reached this point, and there is not much to say about it, it is better to transport the master's law body back to the Kongtong faction, and then leave Gu Lanke's body in this maple forest, and let it be chewed by any snakes, insects, tigers and leopards, and we also save a lot of heart." ”
Mei Jinlong said: "Senior brother is surprised by this, this person is the person who is most admired and respected by Shizun, how can he let those animals ruin it, even if Shizun is alive, it is impossible to do this, and he will bury it well." ”
Everyone was shocked by what he said, and they all looked at Mei Jinlong's face, and Yun Tian said, "Senior Brother, did we hear what you said wrong?" You have to bury this person to rest assured, are you not the mind lost by the teacher's injury is talking nonsense here, no matter how you say that the master lost his life because of him, you should hate him to the bone, you said don't put this hatred on him, we all promised you, you said that you want to bury him, we will definitely not agree. ”
Mei Jinlong said: "I am very rational today, and I did not get carried away by this matter, just because Shizun has never put anyone in his eyes, life is a lifetime, it is difficult to find a confidant, my idea is also what his old man thinks, don't misunderstand my approach because of hatred, only compassion can tolerate everything, and transport him and Shizun's Dharma body to the Kongtong faction together according to my will."
Zhuo Wei's face changed when he heard this: "This is absolutely impossible!" If this matter is spread out, it will become a laughing stock in the rivers and lakes, and how can you order the heroes to deal with those masters of the Western Regions? It's not about moving bricks and hitting yourself in the foot. ”
Mei Jinlong said with a smile: "Second Senior Brother, you can misunderstand this time, everything I did today is for the sake of planning for the future, this is called convincing people with virtue, although those masters in the Western Regions are enemies of our various sects, but we regard them as confidants, this move is indeed unprecedented, so that we can have a cohesive call for the heroes to work together." ”
Everyone felt that what he said was reasonable, and there was no more half-talking, only according to the instructions to carefully put the bodies of Luo Binkui and Gu Lanke in the coffin, slowly close the coffin lid, everything was ready, Mei Jinlong drove the carriage pulled by two horses and dragged the black coffin all the way east on the road, followed by dozens of Kongtong sect disciples, their faces were sad to see their master pass away in front of them, but now they were lying in the cold coffin and followed the carriage all the way east, It is as if they have lost something very precious in their lives, and they can never find it again, and there is no substitute for this pain.
After three or four days of round-trip journey, the eight people carefully carried the coffin on the ground close to the carriage, and kept wiping the tears on their faces, Yun Tianchang took a step forward and said: "How many days have passed since the head of the junior brother, the master has passed away, and the master should also be buried in the ground, and he can't be placed here." ”
Mei Jinlong nodded and said: "Yes, the master should also be buried in the ground, so that he can have a place to live, senior brother, you tell all the senior brothers to collect firewood, let the master be reborn in the fire!" ”
Yun Tianchang walked in front of all the juniors and told them to bring firewood, put it together in two piles, and then carefully placed the two bodies of Luo Binkui and Gu Lanke on the pyre, Lin Jingqun approached the pyre with a torch, held it with his right hand, and put the torch into the pyre and immediately ignited a raging fire, the flames were monstrous, about half an hour, the two corpses had been melted into ashes, the snow-white ashes and black wood ashes stood out, Yun Tianchang held the ashes with both hands and put them into the milky white small jar.
Yun Tianchang stood up and said, "Everything has been done for the senior disciples, when will they be buried so that they can also rest in peace." ”
Mei Jinlong said: "It's better to choose a day than to hit the sun, it's better to bury the two of them today, and their spirits in the sky can also rest in peace."
The two of them came to the locust forest, the place where the heads of the past dynasties died, and buried their ashes together, and all the disciples said goodbye for the last time, and left the cemetery one after another.
Mei Jinlong thought all the way along the way, how could he be with his own kung fu and those masters of the Western Regions for a long time, if his kung fu was poor and met the master against the enemy, there was only a dead end, and he would go to Dali Temple with various sects to rescue the master elites of the various major sects in the Central Plains, and he must have strong kung fu, otherwise he would have to give his life in vain.
I felt that my steps were getting heavier and heavier, as if I had been filled with lead, and now what could I do to make my kung fu improve by leaps and bounds and reach a higher level in just a few days. In a trance, I didn't know where I had gone, and when I looked up, I saw Zixiao Pavilion, and my eyes suddenly lit up, "Zixiao Pavilion is a place where the heads of the past dynasties have learned high-grade exercises inside, and you can also find kung fu suitable for your own practice, if God helps me find the kung fu that belongs to me, why should I be afraid of those masters of the Western Regions." Thinking of this, I was happy, so I pushed open the door of Zixiao Pavilion with my hand, walked in, flipped through the secret notes on the bookshelf, read one after another, and none of them were satisfactory to me, just when I was very disappointed, I accidentally touched a book.
This book seems to have a magic in general, the hand touches it on it and it seems that it can no longer be removed, strange how this book has such a big attraction, I was curious to open the title page of this book and take a look, it is inscribed that the deadly double soul swordsmanship is compiled by the head of the Kongtong faction, this swordsmanship is like a ghost, fast as a frightened soul, the profound internal force can be achieved overnight, the mediocre internal force can be successful, as long as the head of the hands touches there is an attraction, this book is the head of the spirit of the rhino communication, each on the title page will show their name, That is, the determination of the new head.
Mei Jinlong smiled suspiciously when he saw this, he didn't expect that there was such a truth in the world, so he looked at the arrangement of the heads of the houses above with an unbelievable gaze, and saw that there were indeed the names of the heads of the previous dynasties on it, and saw that there were finally the names of the previous heads Luo Binkui and his own names, and he was not surprised, no, he really had his own name, as if he was destined, and carefully counted the number of the heads of the houses on it with his hands, and the number of people on it was no more than thirty-five generations of heads, including himself.
Look at the kung fu above with your hand, divided into nine strokes and eighty-one styles, each move is shaped like flowing water, erratic, but the moves are fast and fierce, it is not easy, it is more varied, can not be tortured, see the kung fu above he seems to forget where he is, and as if he is in the scene, he is one of the people in the painting, with the sword in his hand keeps sending out the offensive, until the other party can not attack and defend.
Seeing this, my heart was hot, and the sound of the deadly double soul sword in my hand sounded, the sword had been sold, from the first style like flowing water, like a shadow, surrounded by sword qi, life and death followed, fragmented, life and death parted until the last style was exhausted, I could feel that every move I made was very different from the kung fu I had learned before, the world was different, the speed was unimaginably fast, the change of each move increased, but my heart was vacant, so that when the last move, the whole body began to collapse, sweating profusely, There is really a kind of heart that has spare strength but insufficient strength, which means that his usual kung fu has not been able to reach the heat of the previous head, and if he can achieve it, he will not have such symptoms. Now the time is so urgent, it is imminent, think that there are only a few days now, the masters of various sects and factions will definitely meet in the Cangshan faction of Jiuhua Mountain, if you can't learn this skill at this time, what will you do to avenge the master, and drive those masters of the Western Regions out of the Central Plains. ”
