Chapter 34: The Man's Apprentice Returns

After Li Chouxin left with Zhang Xiaopan, Pei Chen drank the remaining wine in the wine gourd alone in the broken temple, and talked to himself towards the broken statue in the broken temple.

It seems that this is the dilapidated Tianwang Temple, in the middle should be the Tota Heavenly King, and on both sides are the four heavenly kings, but they have long been dilapidated, and there is basically only half of it left.

Beside the fire, Pei Chen's eyes were firm, and he was thinking about the old things while drinking, more than thirty years ago, just because his master Pei Jianyi offended the red man Gao Bishan in front of the emperor at that time and was slaughtered, he was only fourteen years old at the time, but he was already a famous swordsman in the rivers and lakes, but he escaped the catastrophe when he was not in Xijing, and now he thinks about it for thirty-three years.

In the past 33 years, he has been wandering around, although he has made remarkable achievements in swordsmanship, but the eunuch Gao Bishan in front of the emperor is now rising, and he is already the identity of the head of the inner house, and it is indeed difficult to return to Xijing to settle the old things, but now that Zhang Xiaopan has a home, he has nothing else to worry about, and it is time to end everything.

Thinking of this, Pei Chen threw down the wine gourd in his hand heavily, raised his head towards the headless Growth Heavenly King Mo Liqing and said: "Growth Heavenly King, now that you have no leader, and the long sword in your hand is rusty, it is better to lend the long sword to Pei Chen, let this sword eliminate evil and promote good in the world, and cut off all grievances and troubles!" ”

Pei Chen jumped up after saying that, took the already rusty iron sword from the hand of the Growth Heavenly King, and swung a sword towards the door of the broken temple, only to see that the old broken door was instantly shattered and dusty.

Pei Chen carefully wiped the rusty and somewhat curved wisdom sword to rub off the rust, but the sword body was still a little yellowed, but for Pei Chen, the sword in the world, no matter how sharp and noble it was, if it could not punish the evil and eliminate the evil, it would be no different from the rusty sword.

Pei Chen laughed a few times, then put the Hui Sword behind his back, picked up the wine gourd and strode towards the door.

And since Li Chouxin and others took Zhang Xiaopan away, they made a new set of clothes for Zhang Xiaopan, which is still the same as before, a red cotton and linen long coat, but it is new, this is also the first time Zhang Xiaopan has worn new clothes in recent years, but he is still not happy, and he is still thinking about Pei Chen.

Li Chouxin saw Zhang Xiaopan's thoughts, and said: "Xiaopan, since your brother Pei entrusted you to me, you should listen to his words and practice well with the teacher, he has the ability to do it in the future, no matter where you Brother Pei is, you can easily find him, so let's eat first, and I will take you to the broken temple to meet him early tomorrow morning, and say goodbye to him." ”

After listening to Li Chouxin's words, Zhang Xiaopan began to eat, and while eating, he said that he wanted Li Chouxin to speak, and he would definitely go to say goodbye to Pei Chen tomorrow.

Ziwei on the side said at this time: "Brother Sad, are we going to leave tomorrow?" ”

Li Chou replied: "I've been waiting here for a few days, and I've caused a lot of trouble, it's time to leave." ”

Hearing Li Chouxin's words, Qin Yin said: "Since you are leaving tomorrow, won't Brother Chou Xin go to say goodbye to your jade glazed jade beauty?" ”

Li Chou was stunned for a moment, why did he start to mention this stubble again, "Qin Yin, why are you talking about this again, do you want to sleep with your sorrowful brother tonight?" ”

When Qin Yin heard this, she immediately changed her attitude, but she began to be shy at this time, "As long as what my brother said is true, Qin Yin is naturally willing." With that, his face turned red and turned to the side.

"We also want to be with my sorrowful brother!" A few people next to him also coaxed.

This scene was seen by Zhang Xiaopan, and then he looked at his new master in front of him, and suddenly felt that this master was so serious.

Seeing this, Ziwei hurriedly said: "You guys are serious, Xiao Pan is still here, don't take bad children!" And you, stay together to find your jade glass, don't be like a hooligan all day long. ”

Watching Ziwei reprimand Li Chouxin, Zhang Xiaopan smiled for the first time, but this smile was a mockery of his master.

Li Chou was also a little embarrassed, and said, "Eat, eat!" Rest early after eating, you have to hurry tomorrow! ”

There was talk and laughter, wine and meat, and several people quickly finished eating and went back to the house, leaving only Li Chouxin and Zhang Xiaopan.

Li Chouxin saw that several girls had left, and said to Zhang Xiaopan: "Good apprentice, it's still early, let's take you out for a walk." ”

Zhang Xiaopan said: "Although I have worshipped you as a teacher, don't call me a good apprentice, just call me Xiaopan, which is more kind and natural." ”

Li Chouxin also understood that Zhang Xiaopan at this time was just worshipping himself as a teacher under Pei Chen's persuasion, but now he was still reluctant to admit this fact, so let him do it first.

"Okay, Xiao Pan, let's go out for a walk, I have something to say to you." Li Chouxin continued.

Zhang Xiaopan did not refuse, and followed Li Chouxin and walked down the street.

Along the way, Li Chouxin was talking to Xiao Pan about his past, and then explained to Xiao Pan: "Now that you and I are masters and apprentices, I, Li Chouxin, will definitely not treat you badly, I only hope that you can cultivate seriously in the future, I will pass on everything I will to you, and be a man who stands up to the sky and the earth in the future, don't cry anymore." And those six sisters, although they usually like to tease you, but they also like you, you just treat them as your own sisters, get along well, the outside world is still waiting for us to travel together. ”

Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiaopan said: "No, if you call my sister, it will be a mess of generations, and it is almost the same as calling my sister, not much, master, you have to tell me how to sort my sister, otherwise it will be embarrassing to call the wrong one." ”

"You little ghost, you didn't say a word just now, but now you're ridiculing me, it's really a little ghost." Li Chouxin looked at Zhang Xiaopan and said.

At this time, a carriage passed in front, and it seemed that Qianxiuzhai was beside Li Chouxin, and the car stopped, and the person in the car opened the curtain, revealing a beautiful and familiar face, and the person who came was Yu Liuli.

"Sorrowful son, so coincidentally met here?" Yu Liuli asked first.

Li Chou was a little embarrassed, "Yes, it's a coincidence, where did Miss Yu Liuli come back from so late?" ”

"I just returned from the Taishou Mansion, and tonight the Taishou set up a banquet to entertain the guests, and paid for the little girl to dance to help the fun, just now." Yu Liuli replied.

Li Chouxin didn't know what to say, so he just nodded.

But Zhang Xiaopan asked at this time: "Master, is this the jade glass girl that Master Qinyin said just now?" So should Xiao Pan call his sister or sister? Do you want to take her with you tomorrow morning? ”

Zhang Xiaopan's successive questions startled Li Chouxin, "Don't talk nonsense, just call my sister, and don't mention the matter of my sister again." Then he smiled awkwardly at Yu Liuli.

At this time, Yu Liuli knew that Li Chou was about to leave, and said: "Sorrowful son, if you want to leave, don't you want to say goodbye to Liuli?" ”

Li Chou was a little embarrassed, thought about it and said, "This is also what Shi just decided, so I didn't have time to tell it." ”

Yu Liuli said that he knew and let the carriage leave, leaving Li Chouxin looking at the carriage and distracted, seeing the carriage disappearing into the street, Li Chouxin turned around and said to Zhang Xiaopan: "Don't talk nonsense after you go back after you meet Miss Yu Liuli tonight, otherwise the master will not teach you sword moves." ”

"I know, I know, aren't you afraid that a few teachers will blame you, don't say it." Zhang Xiaopan replied a little nonchalantly.

After some explanation, Li Chouxin took Zhang Xiaopan back to Fuman Building, and Zhang Xiaopan lived with Li Chouxin tonight.

Early the next morning, Zhang Xiaopan woke up early, woke up Li Chouxin, and clamored to say goodbye to Pei Chen.

Li Chouxin asked Zhang Xiaopan to wake up a few girls, collected the things, and it didn't take long to eat something in the restaurant and go to the broken temple in the east of the city.

Before leaving, Zhang Xiaopan also asked Li Chouxin to bring Pei Chen a pot of good wine.

It's just that when a few people arrived at the broken temple, they saw that the door of the broken temple had already been shattered, Zhang Xiaopan thought that Pei Chen had encountered an accident, and ran towards the temple in a hurry, and Li Chouxin and others also followed.

But there was no trace of a fight in the temple, Zhang Xiaopan was relieved, but he began to wonder again, where did Brother Pei Chen go? Then he looked helplessly at Li Chouxin.

Li Chou was also a little curious, but he immediately found the answer.

"Xiao Pan, what do you see missing in this temple?" Li Chou asked in his heart.

Zhang Xiaopan looked around, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "It's a sword, it's a sword in the hands of the Heavenly King." ”

"That's right, since the iron sword in the Heavenly King's hand is gone, it must have been taken away by your eldest brother Pei Chen, yesterday he gave you his own immortal, of course he has to find his own sword, not to mention, this Heavenly King's wisdom sword is really suitable for him." Li Chou said.

"Then this door was also destroyed by Brother Pei Chen's sword?" Zhang Xiaopan continued to ask.

"I guess it should be! It seems that he has already taken the sword of wisdom to punish the evil and eliminate the evil. Li Chou replied thoughtfully.

"Look, there's a word on the ground!" The chess rhyme suddenly sounded.

Several people quickly surrounded them, and there were still a few lines of words left by Pei Chen next to the smoking firewood, although the word was written by charcoal, but Pei Chen's free and uninhibited when he wrote this word was perfectly expressed, the style of the word wandered around, and there was an indestructible will in the elegant, and the word wrote:

Xiao Pan saw that Pei had borrowed the sword of the king and left, intending to cut off all the evils in the world and cut off all grievances and troubles, don't think about it.

Zhang Xiaopan looked at the words on the ground stupidly, just wanted to cry but suddenly remembered Li Chouxin's words last night, so he got up and sprinkled half a pot of wine that he had brought to Pei Chen in front of the mutilated statue of the Heavenly King, put half a pot in front of him, and said: "Master of Heavenly King, since Brother Pei borrowed your sword, this wine will be regarded as a thank you gift, I hope you will bless Brother Pei in the sky to fulfill his wish and cut off all his worries." ”

Seeing this, Li Chou was very emotional, it turned out that everyone was temperamental, and it was inevitable to write a poem on the scene:

The king of heaven borrowed a long sword in his hand

But it's still new

The old man comes here, and the old man goes

Only the long will to tell God to listen

At this time, Zhang Xiaopan didn't know what Li Chouxin meant, but he could feel that Li Chouxin was writing about himself and Brother Pei Chen.

"Since Brother Pei Chen has gone without obstacles, then let's get up as soon as possible, Xiao Pan, I should also go and see the outside world." Zhang Xiaopan seemed to have grown a lot overnight, and after speaking, he walked towards the outside of the broken temple.

Li Chouxin and others also followed, but no one took the initiative to talk to Zhang Xiaopan at this time, because Zhang Xiaopan must have been very sad in his heart at this time, but he didn't want to show it.

The men walked back, back into the street, and rode to the north gate.

As soon as he arrived at the North City Gate, Li Chouxin saw the familiar carriage from last night again, and his heart suddenly tightened.

Sure enough, when Li Chouxin and the others arrived at the carriage under the city, they were stopped by the people in the car, and the person who came was the jade glaze.

"Worried son, Yu Liuli knows that you are leaving, so I am here to give you a ride." After speaking, Yu Liuli looked at the girls behind Li Chouxin.

And the girls behind Li Chouxin also looked at Yu Liuli, and they were indeed shocked by Yu Liuli in a red shirt.

Everyone looked at this jade glazed skin like condensed fat, a pair of hooking eyes under the willow eyebrows, and a graceful figure like a snake demon, which was indeed difficult not to be moved.

"But then again, how did this jade glass end up here?" The sound of the piano reacts first.

Li Chouxin was a little confused by this question, avoided the question of the piano sound, and said to Yu Liuli: "The little thing is still worrying about the girl, thank you for sending it, and please take care of the girl." ”

"It seems that the sorrowful son is accompanied by many beauties, and now he doesn't want to pay more attention to the little girl." Yu Liuli said to Li Chouxin.

Li Chouxin didn't know how to answer, so he turned around and looked at a few girls with a weak heart.

At this time, Qin Yin said: "Sorrowful son, Miss Yu Liuli is so reluctant, why don't you take her with you, we just have one more sister." ”

"That's it! Bring it with you if you like it! A few people next to him also made a fuss, but Li Chou knew that these were jokes and couldn't be taken seriously.

So he said: "Miss Liuli, it's not that I'm unwilling, it's just ......"

"Needless to say, Liuli knows what the sad son means, today's little girl is just here to see you off, there is nothing else to think, and I hope that the son will not forget the words of Liuli that night." Yu Liuli interrupted Li Chouxin's words.

"It's still not right, how could Yu Liuli know that we left today?" Seyu asked another question that was difficult for Li Chou to answer.

Zhang Xiaopan didn't think much about it, opened his mouth and said, "It's not that I met Sister Yu Liuli on the street with Master last night. ”

Only then did everyone understand, and they stared at Li Chouxin.

Li Chou was just about to say something, but Yu Liuli shook his head: "Let's go, sad son, stay a little longer and wait for you to feel better, a few girls will definitely not be able to spare you." ”

Li Chou was also helpless, so he said cherished and rode away from Yu Liuli's side on horseback and went straight out of the city.

It's just that Zhu Wei, the girl, looked at Yu Liuli when she walked through the carriage, and said mischievously: "Sister Liuli, don't worry, my sad brother will miss you." Then he hurried towards Li Chouxin.

Yu Liuli looked at the figure of a group of people leaving, and inevitably felt a little more sad in her heart.

A few people went out of Xunyang City, and they didn't know where the next place was, but they were so attached to the landscape, there were beauties, there were apprentices, and they were really free.

At this time, Pei Chen, who left overnight, had arrived at Wangjing City, thirty miles east of Xijing City, and was covered by a yellowed long sword, and passers-by all pointed at him.

"No matter how you say this, Wangjing is also next to Xijing, this person dares to come to this prosperous realm without even a decent sword, it's ridiculous!"

"Where did the poor flower come from, in tattered clothes, and learned to use broken swords to scare people."

β€œ.......”

However, Pei Chen ignored it, and walked straight towards a simple roadside wine stall.

"Shopkeeper, come with half a pound of good wine and two pieces of pancakes."

The shopkeeper seemed to be a little familiar when he heard this, but he didn't dare to confirm it, so he walked over to Pei Chen and took a closer look.

"Is it Brother Pei?" I saw the shopkeeper hurriedly asked.

"That's right, it's me, hurry up and get the wine, I'm very thirsty." Pei Chen said.

The shopkeeper didn't say much, and served a pot of good wine, a pound of beef, and two pieces of pancakes.

"Brother Pei, why did you come back suddenly, are you?"

"Yes, some things have been in the dust for too long, and it's time to remind some people." Pei Chen drank heavily as he spoke.

"Brother Pei, do you need help?"

"No need, you can sell your bar, this is my own business, come to you to ask for a bowl of wine and drink, you will repay the favor of the year, after today, you should have never seen me!" After Pei Chen finished speaking, the man didn't say anything more.

This shopkeeper was originally a fast catcher who was on an errand in Wangjing Mansion back then, and was framed by Shangguan and carried the black pot, and was later rescued by Pei Chen, and the traitorous official was also found out by Pei Chen.

It didn't take long for Pei Chen to eat and drink well and leave the wine stall.

At this time, Pei Chen did not plan to go directly to Xijing, but planned to give a big gift to the person in the palace in Wangjing.

Originally, Pei Jianyi was also a swordsman in the palace, and it stands to reason that he would not fall to such a point, only hating that Gao Bishan listened to Gao Yonglu's words of adding oil and vinegar, so he would make slander in front of the emperor, frame the family teacher, and finally end up being slaughtered.

And now that Gao Bishan lives in the palace, it is difficult to move him. And the culprit Gao Yonglu is in Wangjing, relying on Gao Bishan to do mischief in Wangjing over the years, collecting money and countless people's daughters, he is already the first evil in Wangjing, and it is difficult to get rid of it quickly.

Pei Chen first walked towards the Gao Mansion, and sat by the wall opposite the Gao Mansion for a whole day.

When night fell, Pei Chen saw that the surroundings were quiet and knew that the time had come.

Walking towards Gaofu, the guards of Gaofu saw Pei Chen's appearance and scolded: "Get out of here, don't look at where this is, you dare to come here to beg." ”

Pei Chen ignored it, took out his long sword and sealed his throat with a sword, only to see that the rusty sword emitted a huge sword intent that directly shattered the gate of Gaofu.

When the people in Gaofu heard the movement, they gathered all the guards and stepped forward to surround them, only to see that Pei Chen was like chopping melons and vegetables, and dozens of people fell to the ground one after another, and no one survived.

Everywhere Pei Chen went, blood was spilled, and no one in Gaofu was spared.

Gao Yonglu also came out to check the situation at this time, but he was frightened by the scene in front of him, and hurriedly called the master who was usually raised in the house to come and protect himself.

Seeing that Pei Chen was still fearless, he forced towards Gao Yonglu, and when everyone around him saw this, they stepped forward to resist, but none of them were Pei Chen's enemies.

Gao Yonglu didn't figure out what was going on at all, and hurriedly asked, "Who dare to ask the hero?" Why did you kill my Gaofu? ”

Pei Chen sneered: "Heh, it's you who hurt the killer, have you forgotten what you have done?" ”

Gao Yonglu woke up like a dream, "You are, you are that person's apprentice." ”

As soon as Gao Yonglu finished speaking, he was killed by Pei Chen with a sword, and blood flowed all over the ground.

At this time, the cries of women, children and children came from the room on the side, and Pei Chen opened the entire faΓ§ade with a sword, and inside was a maid protecting Gao Yonglu's wife and son.

Seeing this, Pei Chen said: "The sword in my hand does not kill women and children, but only the wicked." ”

The three of them knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Pei Chen said: "I still have to bother the three of you to go to Xijing, and send a message to Gao Bishan for me, just say that the apprentice of that person back then is back." If he asks whom, tell him the man who took his life with a sword. ”

Pei Chen said, turned around and walked out of the Gao Mansion calmly, as if nothing had happened.
