Chapter 2: People and Things Go

**Shuo paced in the hall and said: "Brother Wu's chest palm wound is vicious and weird, the old man has been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for more than 30 years, and he has never seen this kind of palm technique, I think the person who performed this palm technique is definitely not a person from the Central Plains." And the palm behind Brother Wu made the old man puzzled. Tie Zhongjie asked, "What sect does the sect master speculate to be the result of martial arts?" "Golden Hook Iron Hand!" **Shuo Dao. Tie Zhongjie was shocked when he heard this: "Could it be Murong Di, the deputy head of the Golden Fire Hall!" **Shuo said: "It is this person's unique skill." **Shuo continued: "But this person is a benevolent and narrow righteous man, and he belongs to the Jinhuo Hall Yan Qianhe, how can he be an enemy of Wu Daxia?" ”

In the middle of the words, suddenly the gate of the garden outside was wide open, and I saw a person ushered in from the rain, his face was cold, and there were two fist-sized golden flames on his right arm, and more than 20 people behind him were pierced with a large golden flame on their right arms, this person was the remnants of Murong Enemy, the deputy head of the Golden Fire Hall, who came to congratulate Wu Chongyu on his birthday. **Shuo and others saw this and went out to greet them. **Shuo recognized that the person was Murong Di. As soon as Murong Di saw ** Shuo, he stepped forward and arched his hand: "It turns out that Xiao Daxia also came here early, and the younger generation remembers that he wanted to follow when he was young, and he was taught by Daxia, and he was very fortunate to see him today." **Shuo said with a smile: "Why should Brother Murong be so polite, as long as I am a layman in the rivers and lakes, I am still the same after several ups and downs in the rivers and lakes, what more can Xiao ask for!" ”

Murong Di nodded happily after hearing this, and when the two of them had finished seeing each other, Hongyan hurriedly invited everyone to come to the hall to talk. Take everyone as if the hall has been sitting. Hongyan pours tea and offers water. said to Murong Enemy: "Chief Murong worked tirelessly, visited overnight, and the younger generation could not welcome him from afar, so he was deeply ashamed, so he asked Chief Murong to drink this cup of tea temporarily, and talk about the wind and rain." "Hongyan had a relationship with the Jinhuo Hall when he teleported his father's birthday sticker, so Murong Enemy recognized Hongyan. Murong Di saw that Hongyan was so attentive and generous, and hurriedly gave a salute to the tea and said: "Invited by the master of Wu Garden, everyone in the Golden Fire Hall is happy, how can the old hall master be sick recently, and he can't personally send us to come to congratulate the Lord of Wu Garden's birthday. Murong Di continued: "I don't know if Wu Daxia is in good health, Murong Di wishes Wu Daxia an infinite sunset on behalf of my colleagues in Jinhuo Hall!" ”

Hongyan listened to Murong's words and was saddened. Murong Enemy ordered someone to offer a birthday gift. There were ten disciples who each held a brocade box in their hands and offered it to Hongyan. **Shuo sighed aside. Hongyan didn't know how to accept this gift. Murong Di saw that everyone's faces were full of sorrow, and they all had tears. So he asked how? **Shuo reluctantly came to the bloody case of the good dream one by one. Murong Enemy's face suddenly showed a look of sorrow when he heard this, if this news was unstable, it would be difficult to tell us about the conspiracy we had suffered during the day. to disturb the atmosphere of Wu Daxia's birthday. **Shuo asked in surprise: "Could it be that Chief Murong also suffered an accident during the day." Murong Enemy said: "It's not a secret, the people who originally came to celebrate their birthday were Yanyue Dao Lu Yun and my family's young hall master Zhen Zhen. Who would have thought that the Floating Cloud Valley was full of fog and gold, and the killing machine was endless, and I don't know who the Divine came to assassinate with a skull mask. Most of the people and horses in my hall were injured, and the deer manager was scarred, so it was difficult to come to celebrate his birthday. had to rush back to the Golden Fire Hall to die. It's a pity that the young master of my family is young and vigorous, and he was dismembered by thieves with ropes to show the public, and the bones are gone. **Shuo exclaimed: "There is such a thing! ”

Tie Zhongjie asked, "Do you know what kind of tricks the other party used?" ”

Murong Enemy said: "The thief's martial arts are so profound and weird, Lu Yun is still difficult to defeat him, the internal force injured by that person is cultivated as a diver, and the injured person's head suddenly turns into a skull, which is very terrifying." As soon as Murong Enemy's words fell, the neighbor of Haomengyuan on the side said: "This situation is exactly the same as the tragic situation of my family being killed. **Shuo continued: "Is this the case? The neighbor said: "It's true, Xiao Daxia might as well go to the cold house to check it out for himself." **Shuo then ordered Tie Zhongjie to take Chief Murong to check. After Murong Di came back, he reported the consequences, like the disciples in the Floating Cloud Valley, who suffered a tragic situation.

**Shuo stroked his beard and said, "It turns out that these two are the work of the same faction. Murong Di asked, "Who put a master like Wu Daxia to death?" **Shuo said: "I have examined Wu Daxia's body, and the person who injured Wu Daxia is by no means alone." Hongyan asked, "What is Senior Xiao's opinion?" **Shuo slowly paced a few steps in the hall and said: "I guess that when Wu Daxia and the unknown skeleton man were fighting with all their might, there was a master behind him to help, and this person hit the back of the master of Wu Garden, but it made people break their bones and tendons, so it was undoubtedly a fatal blow." At this time, the skeleton man made peace with all his strength. Wu Daxia was brutally injured and died. Murong Di asked, "Who is the person who stabbed behind the back, who did this?" **Shuo said: "It is the golden hook iron hand of Chief Murong!" ”

Murong Di was shocked when he heard this. One of Murong Enemy's disciples said: "We have suffered the same accident in the Floating Cloud Valley, and when the accident happened in the Dream Garden, we all traveled all the way with Chief Murong in the Floating Cloud Valley, how could Chief Murong know how to separate himself and go to the Good Dream Garden to commit murder." Tie Zhongjie said: "Everyone never thought that Chief Murong would do this. It's just that I don't understand who will use the golden hook iron hand of Murong Chief. **Shuo said: "As long as you know who will use the golden hook and iron hand, there is a way out of this case." **Shuo said to Chief Murong again: "I don't know if Chief Murong has a successor?" Murong Enemy said: "Only this study will be awarded to the master of my family's young hall." Although Zhen Zhen was arrogant and undisciplined by nature, he only took pity on the battle of Fuyun Valley, and he had already died. ”

Everyone was at a loss when they heard this. **Shuo asked, "Chief Murong once confronted the assassin in Fuyun Valley, did the assassin reveal some clues?" Murong Di pondered for a moment and said: "The thief leader never confided in his identity and origin with his words, but only asked Lu Yunyan to teach the Central Plains martial arts. ”

Murong Enemy's eyes lit up suddenly, and he continued: "When the assassin left, one of his subordinates left a word. Shuo asked, "Who left any words here?" Murong Enemy said: "This person's eyes are very big, and his description is interesting. Judging by his behavior, he has not been in the rivers and lakes for a long time. When he was about to escape, he said: 'Goodbye Xianyun Pavilion'. ”

Everyone listened to Murong's words, as if they saw a glimmer of light in the fog. ** Shuo Tan asked, "In this way, the target of the assassin's next assassination should be Yan Nujiao of Xianyun Pavilion!" Murong Enemy said: "I don't know." ”

Si Shi Hongyan has properly accepted the birthday gifts of the Golden Fire Hall and the Natural Gate, and sacrificed them in front of Wu Chongyuling's case to show the nostalgia and respect of the two families. Hearing what Murong Enemy said, he said: "The head of the thief said that he wanted to teach the Central Plains martial arts, and the current martial arts master is regarded as his offender, and the four people of the martial arts 'Thousand Jade Nutian' are the most, the Golden Fire Hall has been intercepted and killed in the Floating Cloud Valley, and the father has died, and the next catastrophe will be on the Xianyun Pavilion." **Shuo nodded and said: "What Miss Wu said is true, if the arrogant thief leader really intends to provoke in my Central Plains Martial Arts, he should indeed go to Xianyun Pavilion next." **Shuo sighed: "Wu Chongyu and Yan Nujiao have always had few grudges with people, and this bloody case is no longer a vendetta, and it is about to become a catastrophe that will sweep the Central Plains." The thieves tried in vain to first injure the lives of the four of my 'Thousand Jade Nutian', and then plotted to annex the Central Plains Martial Arts. ”

Tie Zhongjie said: "A foreign guest has such a big appetite, not to mention that Canghai has not asked about the affairs of the rivers and lakes for a long time, why is this thief leader so hard to force each other?" **Shuo said: "I don't have the heart to be a king, and people worry that I am in danger of being a hegemon." This thief is just another lonely boat ear rolled up by the evil waves of the rivers and lakes. **Shuo said again: "No matter what, it is imperative for Xianyun Pavilion to happen. Tie Zhongjie asked: "The master of the door is going, the rivers and lakes are far away, I don't know when I can return?" **Shuo said: "At this time, the master of the iron gate doesn't need to worry too much, as long as he brings Miss Wu back to the natural gate, she will take care of her." Tie Zhongjie nodded yes, and then asked: "When will the door master leave, and his subordinates will prepare people and horses to entangle?" **Shuo said: "I don't have to work for the natural people, I can go alone." Prepare some silver and two applications, without further ado, it is better to leave tomorrow. Hongyan said: "Your predecessors have been worried about the matter of your father until the night, and today's things have been seen, you don't have to work hard, and rest with ease, and it is okay to continue this relationship tomorrow." ”

**Shuo said: "The fog is beginning to open, and the matter is discussed here, as for the golden hook and iron hand behind it, there is no clue, it is really difficult to speculate, so everyone and rest for a night, today's matter, the Ming Dynasty will discuss it again." Murong Di and his subordinates were tired after this day's work, so they rested separately under the guidance of Hongyan and their neighbors. **Shuo and several people also chatted and shared a pillow in the Qingsha of the Good Dream Garden, and there was nothing to say all night.

The next day, the red sun dawned. The clouds in the sky slowly receded.

**Shuoqing tea is lightly drunk, do not dare to delay. The horse rushed to the Immortal Cloud Pavilion alone. **Not long after Shuo passed, many benevolent and righteous friends in the martial arts rushed to congratulate Wu Chongyu on his birthday. Whoever promised to celebrate his birthday became a sacrifice day, and people knelt down to show their mourning.

On the second day, there was an endless stream of people who came and went to pay tribute, and they were received one by one.

On the third day, there were still people who came to sacrifice, and the bodies of their parents were cremated with tears, and the ashes were sacrificed in front of the mourning hall.

On the fourth day, all was quiet. Tie Zhongjie, Murong Di and others were still guarding Wu Chongyuling, and Hongyan said: "After seven days of filial piety, I will go to the natural gate with Tie Zhongjie."

On the fifth day, the wind and the sun were beautiful.

At dusk, the clouds are setting. The evening breeze ruffles the bun.

The five exercisers and the disciples of the Golden Fire Hall guarded outside the mourning hall. The mourning hall was filled with smoke, and the ten night pearls given by the Golden Fire Hall on the spiritual case were blooming. **The two Lantian jade lions presented by Shuo are on both sides of the spirit case, and there are also two pearls in each of the lion's mouths. Faint Strange Light. **Shuo also gave two Jade Dragon Wine Glasses and two Tianshan Snow Lotus Pills to be placed in front of the spiritual seat. The luster of the treasure is like a dream in the mourning hall, as if it is really a paradise surrounded by auspicious clouds.

Hongyan, Tie Zhongjie, and Murong Enemy worshiped silently in front of the spirit case.

"Ha-ha-" A strange laugh broke the silence in the mourning hall.

The voice came from outside the mourning hall, and when the three of them looked back, a tall and thin figure swept towards the three of them like the wind. The three of them were too late to take precautions and were almost injured when they dodged. When the three of them looked at it, the man in black was already squatting on top of the mourning hall. This person's eyes were fierce, and his face was gloomy. A black shirt covered his tall, thin body. Seeing that this person was like an underground ghost, the man in black laughed strangely, and reached out to put the treasure box containing Xuedan on the spirit case into his arms.

Hongyan shouted: "Don't be rude on my father's spirit case." With that, he pulled out his sword and stabbed the man in black directly. The men in black did not dodge, and lightly took out a shiny silver hook from each of their wide sleeves. Swing the double hook to meet Hongyan's sword, and float lightly to the ground, before Hongyan can make the second sword, the man in black has already danced the double hook viciously, taking Hongyan's life. Hongyan used Wu Chongyu's lotus leaf swordsmanship to connect, and in the darkness, he hit the sparks in the mourning hall. Murong Enemy on the side saw this golden hook iron hand, and smashed into the faint cold light of the hook sword.

The figure in black is light and fast, and the double hooks in the palm are sharper. With more than 20 moves, Hongyan and Murong couldn't help him. Tie Zhongjie said: "This person must have something to do with the murderer of Wu Daxia." Capture the man. So Tie Zhongjie stepped forward to help.

In an instant, in the flash of the sharp sword and the sharp hook, more than forty moves had passed, and the man in black relied on that light and agile flying technique, although he was defeated, he was still not injured. The three of them tried their best to force the man in black into a corner of the mourning hall. Hongyan stabbed the black-clothed man in the throat with a sword, and Tie Zhongjie swept a sword and slashed at the black-clothed man's legs. Murong Enemy struck his right rib with a single palm from one side. The three of them thought that this move would seriously injure the man in black. I saw that the figure in black suddenly seemed to be a leaf floating in the air, lying flat in the air, and in one fell swoop he had solved the danger of Hongyan and Tie Zhongjie's double swords. At this time, Murong Di's palms were already empty. Missed the right rib of the man in black. The man in black was touching his feet, and at this moment, the man in black used his strength to sweep the waists of Hongyan Tie Zhongjie and the two with double hooks, and his body was swept outward. While the two of them pushed their bodies to dodge, the man in black shook his body slightly and came to the door of the mourning hall early.

Outside the door, everyone could hear the noise in the hall, and the disciples of the Golden Fire Hall had already been waiting by the door with their weapons in their arms. The man in black saw the disciples of the Golden Fire Hall ushering, and Hui Shuang Hook rushed out to kill. The double hooks in the curtain crossed, as if they were white and red, and after only two twists, seven or eight disciples of the Golden Fire Hall died under the double hooks of the man in black. The man in black pushed aside everyone and tried to escape, but was trapped in the courtyard by the five exercisers. These five exercisers are divided into five people: dragon, tiger, chicken, snake, and crane. He is the protector of the natural gate, and his skills are overwhelming. The five of them each have a line of stunts, and they cooperate tacitly like one person, and there are few opponents in the rivers and lakes. The man in black was surrounded and tried his best to kill several times, but it was difficult to get out of the five bare-handed walkers.

At this time, Hongyan took the lead in rushing to the door, just about to step forward to meet the enemy. Unlike a white shadow suddenly cast in the sky, a man in white describes his outfit as the man in black. He also holds a double hook in his hand. Fly in front of Hongyan. Move the double hook to intercept the red face, the martial arts of the man in white and the man in black are more like the same person. But seeing this person's arms lightly on the sides of the tall and thin body, the body swirled and danced, and the double hooks bloomed in the night, and the white clothes danced, and the man in white and the double hooks had been integrated, just like a crystal huge snowflake in the cold winter that kept spinning.

The red-faced single dragonfly lotus leaf swordsmanship has not yet been completed, and it can't withstand such a superb hook technique of the man in white. The bitter and slain have no place to be ashamed. Murong Di and Tie Zhongjie stepped forward to greet them. When the man in white saw this, he immediately put aside his red face. Preemptively, quick two. Defeated Murong and the enemy in one go, and then flew into the mourning hall, and floated out in an instant. went to the rescue of the trapped man in black. Before reaching the front of the five exercisers, the man in white flew and raised his hand to emit five beams of strange light. The strange light shimmered in the night sky, and the brilliance was unusual. The five exercisers were concentrating on catching the man in black, and he didn't pay much attention to the actions of the man in white, but he took advantage of it. The five strange beams of light in the three places of the man in white were all heavy and the five exercisers wanted to acupuncture, and the five people were immediately attacked and fell to the ground, but the strange light rolled down to the ground and continued to bloom.

It turned out that this colorful light was not a side object, but the strange light released by the luminous orb of the Golden Fire Hall stolen by the person in white who went to the mourning hall, and it was even more dazzling in the night. The five exercisers were killed by the five night pearls on the spot and fell unconscious. The man in black had to take off, the man in black and the man in white merged with the silver hook, and the two of them forced Hongyan one after the other. The intercepted disciples of the Golden Fire Hall were killed, and no one was spared. The two are invincible.

Tie Zhongjie, the owner of the door, came to protect Hongyan, but he couldn't make ten moves, and was picked aside by the double hook of the man in black. Hongyan and the two of them were already defeated, and they flew on the courtyard wall to escape, not wanting the man in white to put him to death with pure heart, so they threw the five stolen night pearls at Hongyan. Hongyan barely got out under the double hooks of the two, but he saw five pearls coming like meteors, and Hongyan's body was not yet stable on the courtyard wall, but he was injured by the pearls. Hongyan but felt that the world was spinning, spit out a mouthful of blood, folded down from the courtyard wall, and fell into the barren mountains outside the garden of good dreams, and the pain was unconscious. The five pearls of the night also flew down the valley, and no one could find them.

The man in black and the man in white looked at each other and smiled when they saw this, and each held a double hook to support Murong Enemy. Although Murong Enemy's pair of golden hook and iron hands are also like sharp weapons, they hurt people's muscles and bones, and the enemy's weapons. But at this time, he was injured again and again, more than a dozen moves away, Murong Enemy had already weighed several hooks, and more than a dozen moves had passed, Murong Enemy was bleeding all over his body, in the endless defeat, Murong Enemy was on the verge of death, and the double hooks of the man in black and the man in white swore not to give up without causing death, and came to Murong Enemy through his chest. Seeing that Murong Di was even more powerless to dodge and parry, but just as the four silver hooks were about to stab him in the chest, his palms seemed to be enchanted, and he sent out a very fast blow.

Murong Di's palms seemed to have an extra pair, and in one fell swoop, he opened the double hooks of the man in black and the man in white at the same time, and his figure flew away in the opposite direction of the man in black and the man in white, responding to his two palms. It is difficult to see the power of Murong Enemy's palms when he retreats, but when he is on the offensive, he can break people's bones and tendons. The black and white were in a state of pride, and they thought that when the two of them stabbed out in the end, they would only see Murong fall to the ground and die. Who knew that the dying Murong Enemy would be able to use such a powerful move at this last moment. The man in black and the man in white couldn't dodge at this time, and they both slapped Murong Enemy in the chest, and under one blow, the man in black and the man in white fell back into Zhang Xu Yuan, and blood spurted back into his mouth. The two of them barely stood in the courtyard, and they didn't dare to offend Murong Enemy again, but they escaped together with the light skills of going to the city. After a few flashes in the night, he disappeared.

Murong Di stood alone in the dark courtyard and sighed. Thanks to his golden hook iron hand's last stunt, "Xianglong shakes his hand." "This move can solve all difficulties and attacks. The so-called offense and defense are powerful in one fell swoop. If it weren't for the life-and-death situation, Murong Di would never be able to use this trick with real strength.

The Garden of Good Dreams was once again filled with blood. Murong Enemy staggered into Wu Chongyu's mourning hall. The candlelight in the hall was still shining, and the floor was full of messes. The spirit case is even more chaotic, and the night pearl is gone, dim and gloomy. Only the jade lion and the dragon cup remain. It's a pity that the jade lion is roaring in the sky, who does the dragon cup chant to! Murong Di let out a long sigh when he saw it. Walk out of the mourning hall again......

Not only a few days later, the spring season was steaming. Wisps and winds blew through the Garden of Good Dreams, across the mountains outside the Garden of Good Dreams, and on the faces of the red faces.

A few crisp bird calls finally woke up the red face in the drowsiness.

Hongyan slowly climbed up from the barren hillside, and the surroundings were mottled with spring. Hongyan suddenly remembered what happened in the Garden of Good Dreams that day. Then he lifted his spirits and climbed the slope of the weedy hill and returned to the Garden of Good Dreams.

Push open the gate of the garden, and startle a flock of birds. In the courtyard of the red face, it has only been seen for a few days, and the garden has been mixed with birds. When there was silence and no one, it turned out that the spider silk had covered the window lattice, and the incense case in the mourning hall was heavy. The jade lion and the dragon cup are gone. If it is really a dead person, only the shadow will hurt the soul, and it is a dilapidated scene. When Hongyan looked at it for a long time, he couldn't help but hate tears for a long time, knelt in front of Wu Chongyu's spiritual seat, and cried bitterly. There is no birthday gift from the two families of Nature Gate and Jinhuotang in front of the spirit case, only the elegy that symbolizes the true feelings of the daughter mentioned by the red face is still there, and it is written:

Good dreams often come true to you, and dreams come to the morning and twilight.

Delicate flowers bloom for a long time, and the flowers bloom year after year.

The people of the past are gone, and there is nothing more to remember than this. When Hongyan cried for a long time, he got up again and thought that the dream garden was no longer a place to live for a long time. Remembering the teachings of his parents in the past, it is not beneficial to hurt God in vain, it is better to seek him elsewhere. Hongyan wanted to be reluctant to leave her parents' funeral hall. Looking back, the courtyard was unusually clean, and there was no remnants of that night's fighting. Expecting that the Iron Gate Lord and the Murong Administrator should be fine, they put their minds at ease. When parting, he silently looked back at the mourning hall, and there was still a couplet mentioned by **Shuo outside the door:

Hongchen is right and wrong, and there is no nostalgia since then, and the east wind is gone.

The world is bitter and happy, how can I say goodbye, and the twilight rain seems to be my sorrow.

Hongyan looked at it and sighed to himself: "It's rare to have a few confidants like Xiao Daxia, and Daddy has knowledge and eyes under the spring!" Hongyan sighed with emotion, walked out of the garden of good dreams, looked back at the door again, and said goodbye to the pain.
