Five years of Jiading, spring.

On the boundary of Xijing, gray smoke rose from afar.

The rolling iron horsemen stirred up the dust, and the Mongolian flags mixed with the neighing of horses marched majestically to the east.

In the distance, in the field, stood a young man, his eyes lonely, like the weeds of the wild wind, and like the clouds that drifted indifferently in the sky. There was a kind of dazedness in his loneliness, like this empty four fields. Now the Mongol army moved slowly in his eyes, and the whole heaven and earth seemed to vibrate, but he turned a blind eye, just letting the wind tear at the placket of his clothes. He had always been like this, and when he was a child, he often looked blankly at the gloomy past, and relieved his sorrow in this feeling of emptiness.

In the Mongol army, there was a gaze that also swept over the young man in the field, scanning all directions. A middle-aged man with a long beard and cheeks said to a heroic young man next to him: "Although the Great Khan did not personally go out this time, the third prince will definitely win with his troops. ”

The young man said: "The famous Linggong stationed troops at the border last month, so you must be on guard." If they suddenly join forces with the Jin Kingdom and cut off our back road, it will be very troublesome. ”

The man stroked his beard and said, "The third prince doesn't have to worry too much, although that famous Linggong is good at fighting, he has already lost his vitality in the battle of the Xia State army last year, not to mention that he is still a defeated general under our men." ”

The young man said, "Father should not let him go, it is like a tiger returning to the mountain." ”

The man said: "The Xia Kingdom is already at the end of the crossbow, and it is just a matter of breathing." For the time being, there is no big worry, Emperor Xia is weak, the Xia country is declining, even if you recuperate, you have to go through many years. Now that the rivers of the Jin country are declining, and the face of Yongji is mediocre and incompetent, our Mongolian army is now mighty, the soldiers are strong and the horses are strong, and we will succeed if we take advantage of the weakness. ”

"The national teacher is right, sooner or later we will take the Jin country into our pockets. The young man raised his arms and made a grasping motion in the air. He coughed and said loudly to the left and right, "Give the order to go down and camp on the spot!" The soldiers on both sides answered, and galloped towards the front team.

The grass and trees were swaying in the field, but there was no longer a teenager.

The Mongol army began to camp near a low hill, tents bulging from the ground. When the villagers living near the hill heard that the Mongol army had arrived, they ran into the woods behind the hill.

On the two rocks behind the hill, a man was meditating on luck, one with a bruised face and angry face, and the other was biting his lip as if he was smiling but not smiling. One of the villagers, who had run away from the Mongol soldiers, was taken aback when he saw these two strange-looking men. The bruised man on the boulder on the left glared at the villagers, who knew that they were not to be provoked, and quickly quickened their pace and walked past them.

The man on the boulder on the left exhaled softly. Seeing this, the man on the big stone on the right secretly clenched his fists with his hands flat on his knees, and said, "Nie Zhangmen is worthy of being the first seat of the Shushan faction, and he has recovered so quickly." ”

"It's only seven or eight points. The man known as Nie Zhangmen said. "I'm sure you're pretty much there. ”

"Hmph, I'm naturally a little inferior, my arm is still weak. Master Nie can make a move. ”

"I, Nie Motian, never take advantage of people's dangers!"

"Oh, then the head of the Nie sect is a righteous man!" he said mockingly, "I wonder where the palm I have on the Five Holy Mountains came from?"

"You were the one who stole first, and if I didn't intervene, you would have fled. ”

"Originally, this half of the picture was ours, and it was returned to the original owner, so how could we steal?!"

"According to the original agreement between our two factions to hold half of the sheet, why do you have to snatch the other half again and again. ”

"The matter of the map, I Lou Renmang could have ignored it, but my senior brother's death is unclear, I always have to ask for an explanation, right?"

Nie Motian laughed: "Aren't you also righteous Bo Yuntian?" he teased, "I think, you are more concerned about this map, right?"

The man who was called Lou Renmang said: "This picture was already in the hands of my senior brother, but my senior brother suddenly died, and the picture fell into your hands, how do you explain it? I am entrusted by this sect, and I must retrieve this picture." ”

Nie Motian sneered and said: "Our people chased to the Five Holy Mountains, but they met the masters of each road, who knows if you released the rumors, the chaotic battle on the Five Holy Mountains, you didn't take advantage of it, and lost your senior brother's life, this has nothing to do with me, so many sects you can check one by one." Besides, our two factions have discussed merging the maps into one, and then we will go to sea together, but you will have a lot of trouble!"

"Hengsheng?" Lou Ren said recklessly, "It was my senior brother who won back then, but he only got half of the map. And His Majesty Qingcheng refused to return the half of the map. He moved slightly, and his body, which had just gained a little strength, went limp again.

Nie Motian puffed up his chest and brushed his clothes, his face gradually becoming ruddy. Lou Renmang stopped talking, and seemed to bite his lips tighter. The stones on which the two of them sat were about seven or eight meters apart, and the low miscellaneous branches in the middle had been broken and scattered, and the grass was almost flattened, as if they had experienced a fierce fight before.

In the midst of the stalemate, there was a sudden sound of mixed footsteps, as well as the low sound of Lerma's exhalation. I saw some Mongol soldiers dismount, take axes and ropes, and walk this way. Several of the soldiers began to cut down trees. Nie Motian and Lou Renmang glanced at each other and frowned.

Not long after, a soldier spotted them. He whistled, and several other Mongol soldiers looked over the side. The soldier threw down his axe and drew his sword: "Who?"

Nie Motian said: "We're just sitting here for a while. ”

"When you see the uncle, don't you kneel?sit so high, pretending to be a god?" the soldier pointed at him with a knife.

"Let's not disturb the soldier to cut wood," Nie Motian arched his hand, and reached into his arms, took out two ingots of silver and threw them to the Mongolian soldier, "Please let us rest for a while, we are too tired to walk." ”

The Mongolian soldier swept the silver ingot in his hand and waved to his companion behind him: "It's okay." He turned to leave.

"Master Bing," Nie Motian said with a smile, "Are you going to cut down all the trees here?"

"Cut them all!" said the soldier, "don't you see us camping?"

"This," Nie Motian pointed to a tree not far from the soldier, "Can you leave this one behind?" He took out another ingot of silver and threw it to the soldier.

The soldier took the silver ingot, but cursed: "Damn, uncle can cut it if he wants, and you have to do it?" He snorted, turned to the other companions, and muttered something in a low voice. So the Mongols walked up to the tree and looked up and down, left and right. Obviously, Nie Motian was generous for an inconspicuous tree, which aroused the suspicion of the soldiers.

Seeing the Mongolian soldiers pointing fingers around the tree, Lou Renmang was also very nervous. He said: "Master Nie, it's better to ......"

Nie Motian stretched out his fingers in his hand and made a silent motion. He touched a few stones with his hand and held them in his hand.

Suddenly, a Mongolian soldier seemed to have noticed something, and let out a soft sigh of surprise. With his axe, he cut off the bark of a tree bound with a straw rope and took out a folded cowhide inside. Nie Motian glanced at Lou Renmang, raised his arm, and threw it at the four Mongolian soldiers who were curiously watching. Two Mongol soldiers were hit in the back of the head and immediately fell to the ground, while the other two were shot in the arm, screaming in pain. The Mongolian soldiers who reacted waved their knives at Nie Motian and shouted, and Nie Motian kept throwing stones. The other soldiers, alarmed by the shouting, rushed over.

Lou Ren smiled bitterly and said, "Master Nie, you are going to set yourself on fire!"

Nie Motian's face was heavy: "Let's solve these few first." ”

Several Mongolian soldiers drew their knives and rushed towards Nie Motian, Nie Motian touched his side, there were no more stones on the boulder, he had to leg left and right, kicking and blocking the chopping knife, fortunately, the boulder was higher, the Mongolian soldiers had no choice but him, and Lou Renmang on the other side also picked up the stone and bounced it to those soldiers.

As the Mongols whistled, more Mongols got the message, and a few horses galloped across the hills.

Nie Motian let out a low roar, jumped down from the stone, knocked down a soldier, snatched the knife from his hand, and slashed obliquely, cutting down several Mongol soldiers. He only felt suffocated in his chest and dizziness on the top of his head.

Lou Ren scolded "hit the evil", jumped down, kicked over the soldier who took the cowhide, and retrieved the cowhide. Nie Motian stared at the cowhide and said, "I heard the sound of the horn before, and it can be seen that it is the soldiers and horses of the brigade, so we still choose a place to fight again." ”

The stabbed soldier stumbled back and called for help from the Mongols who came later, and arrows came in one after another. Lou Renmang took the cowhide into his arms and said, "You chased all the way, but you chose this ghost place to duel with me." ”

Nie Motian used his knife to pull away the arrow: "If you fight openly like this on the Five Holy Mountains, why do we have to chase all the way here?"

"It seems that you are a decent and upright gentleman?" Lou Ren said recklessly, "When you were in Fengye, you plotted against my horse, what kind of uprightness can you be regarded as?"

As he spoke, the arrows became more and more dense, and several Mongol cavalry rushed over, spears and stabs. Lou Renmang leaned sideways and grabbed the handle of his gun and dragged a Mongolian soldier off his horse. He was about to jump on horseback, but was nearly stabbed in the shoulder by an incoming gun, and slipped off the horse in dodge. In normal times, dealing with these Mongolian barbarians is just a matter of dividing five by two, but after several desperate battles, both of them are already injured, and their internal strength is greatly reduced, so these arrogant and brave Mongolian soldiers rushed over and made the two of them stumbling, which was very embarrassing. In the dodge, the two finally grabbed the horses, they brandished their guns, resisted the random arrows, killed several Mongolian soldiers, and retreated behind the bushes, but an arrow hit Lou Renmang's horse, the horse fell headlong, and Lou Renmang fell off the horse again.

More and more cavalry came after them, and Lou Ren recklessly shortened behind the bushes. Thinking about what was in Lou Renmang's arms, Nie Motian had no choice but to return on his horse to assist Lou Renmang in repelling the cavalry. Lou Renmang grabbed another horse, and the two ran towards the back of the hill.

After the small hill, it was a sparsely planted flat land, Nie Motian glanced back, several Mongolian cavalry were chasing closely, and there was an inaudible shout from a distance behind. Lou Renmang also glanced back a few times, and said breathlessly: "Someone has ridden up the hill, we should find a place with a lot of forests, and we will be able to see clearly on the plain." ”

Nie Motian said: "Those Mongolian soldiers won't chase for long, just a few soldiers died, and they didn't die the commander." I don't think they're going to chase it to the end. ”

Lou Renmang felt that his words were reasonable, and nodded: "There is no forest in front of this at all, this plain is so open, if they really chase after it, we will have to run down." ”

But unexpectedly, the Mongol soldiers were still chasing after them, and in the distance, the sound of trumpets was heard. The sound of the trumpet seemed to be transmitted, and in a few moments it spread from the west to the east. Although the Mongolian horses under them were strong and powerful, they were not good at riding, so they only kicked hard, and gradually, they were driven up by the horses behind. The cavalry behind knew that they could not defeat them, so they did not fight in close quarters, but kept firing arrows. The Mongols were skilful with bows and arrows, and their horses were shot again, and they collapsed to the ground with a few neighing sounds. They dismounted and responded, and several soldiers surrounded them, and they did not come closer, but kept stabbing with their spears and firing arrows. Nie Motian abandoned the spear, drew the short sword at his waist, and swung his sword to cut off the two spear tips.

A few cavalry chased after him and joined the battle formation. There were more arrows flying. The new soldier seems to be very good at kung fu, and he does not fall behind in the sword exchange with Nie Motian's spear. The so-called "a good tiger is difficult to fight a group of wolves", suddenly, an arrow grazed Nie Motian's right arm, and actually cut off a piece of meat, Nie Motian was anxious, and said to Lou Ren recklessly: "My Nie Motian I is famous, do I want to be destroyed in the hands of a group of barbarians?"

Lou Ren said recklessly: "I heard that the Linyuan Dao people in the Five Dynasties period had a Qigong method of internal force rejuvenation, which was passed on to your Qingcheng faction." ”

Lou Ren's reckless reminder seemed to make Nie Motian suddenly enlightened. He glanced at Lou Renmang and said, "What do you mean......"

"I don't know if you have obtained the true inheritance of the former head Qingcheng Shenxi, so that we can recover faster, at least deal with these Mongolian soldiers first. ”

"Master Shen died early, and I just learned one or two of them. Nie Motian dodged and hit him, and he felt that his steps were vain, and Lou Renmang was also sweating.

"The situation is critical, you can give it a try!"

"Okay," Nie Motian said, "take a deep breath." ”

Lou Ren did as he was told.

"Rub the qi into the dantian, and then swim between the chest and abdomen. Nie Motian stretched out his left arm.

Lou Ren recklessly understood, approached Nie Motian, changed the gun to his left hand, stretched out his right arm and Nie Motian's left arm to hold each other, and held his right hand with Nie Motian's right hand. They were eager to kill each other, but now they have to rely on each other at a critical juncture.

Nie Motian recited the secret and instructed Lou Renmang to be lucky in his body. This qigong method is actually a method of gathering the internal strength of two people to resolve the blockage and inactivation of the place, the qi of the human body is originally divided into good and evil, through the channeling of qi to return to the source, so that the positive and yang qi in the body of the two people is greatly increased, so as to achieve the purpose of strengthening the right and dispelling the evil. But this method of gathering qi is simple to say, but it is not easy to operate, if there is no certain internal strength, it will lead to chaos of qi and five organs, not only can not stand up for the good and suppress the evil, but will make the power of the loss. Lou Renmang knew the stakes well, and did not dare to slack off, and guided the internal qi according to the mantra recited by Nie Motian. I felt that the qi of the dantian suddenly surged, as if the warm wind was blowing in, and the veins of the limbs were hot.

The Mongol soldiers on the horse saw the two men clasping their arms in a strange posture, and thought that they could no longer support them, and the trapped beasts were still fighting, shouting, and rushed forward together, swords and spears at the same time.

The two of them struggled to resist under the chaotic blades, slowly squatting down, each feeling that their strength was rapidly recovering, and their middle qi was slowly filling. Suddenly, Nie Motian shouted violently, threw away his arms, flew up, and picked the two soldiers off their horses. Lou Renmang also stood up and stabbed or knocked down several of the Mongol soldiers who surrounded him one by one. Nie Motian jumped on horseback, reined in the horse and killed, and in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen Mongolian cavalry were killed. Several later horsemen drew their crossbows at them, and Lou Renmang picked up the spears on the ground and threw them at the archers one after another, one through the skull and the other through the chest.

Nie Motian shouted: "Don't fall in love with the war, let's retreat." ”

Lou Ren nodded recklessly, pushed down a soldier who was limp on his horse, and turned over on his horse. The two men hurried forward to beat their horses. Dozens of cavalrymen had already arrived at the rear at this time, and they fired arrows at them together. Suddenly, arrows rained down, densely packed. The two kept turning their heads and flicking the arrows, but the Mongolian soldiers were strong bows and arrows, and they were dense and dense, and Rao is masters like Nie Lou were also tired of resisting, and although they had recovered to seven or eight points of strength after a short period of qigong cultivation just now, it was still not as good as usual. Suddenly, an arrow hit Nie Motian's shoulder, and Nie Motian screamed in pain.

"Look there's a hill ahead," Lou said, "and we'll go around it." ”

Nie Motian said: "It's better to go up, the terrain is favorable, if they are still chasing after us, we can't rest if we go around." ”

Since the Mongol tribes were unified by Genghis Khan, the Mongol army has become increasingly powerful. The fierce Mongol soldiers became fierce and invincible under the leadership and training of Genghis Khan. Coupled with the hard bow of the good horse, the Mongolian iron hooves step on the ground and gravel everywhere, and it is like a bamboo. Now that Nie Lou and the others have killed and injured so many soldiers, they will naturally not be let go easily. I only heard the trumpets from far and near, and it seemed that the Mongol army was pouring in. Both of them couldn't help but be afraid, and they urged their mounts to run wildly towards the little oka.

Nie Motian endured the pain and rushed up the hill first, but fortunately, there was some sparse grass and trees on the mountain, he got off the horse, leaned under a small tree, and sat down slowly. Lou Renmang also dismounted. "Master Nie, it seems that you have to recuperate here. ”

The sound of horses' hooves under the mountain is gradually approaching, and the sound of hooves is scattered and spreads to all sides, as if there is a tendency to surround it. Nie Motian's face was gloomy, he stretched out his hand back, gritted his teeth, and pulled out the arrow, and immediately the blood flowed. Lou Renmang took out a small bag of things from his arms and handed it to Nie Motian. "The golden medicine of this door. Lou Ren said recklessly.

Nie Motian took the letter suspiciously. Looking down the slope, another group of cavalry under the command of a centurion galloped towards the mountain.

"Damn," Lou Ren said recklessly, "it looks like we're going to be stuck here." Seeing that Nie Motian still didn't mean to apply the medicine, he pouted and said, "Fortunately, the poison in Nie's head is not a poisonous arrow, but he will be poisoned to death by the poison of my Hongdaomen." I, Lou Ren, am a sinister villain, and I specialize in falling into the well, so you still don't have to apply this golden medicine. ”

Nie Motian snorted and poured the powder on the wound. He frowned and looked at the cavalry lined up at the bottom of the mountain, and said, "You and I are more auspicious today. ”

Lou Ren smiled bitterly: "For the sake of this half picture, the two of us actually ran into this big battle." He sat down and looked at Nie Motian who was pranayama with his eyes closed, "Is there any wine?" Nie Motian shook his head.

"Look at the banner under it, it seems to be a general, or a centurion, a thousand, I don't know who led the Mongol army I met this time, I don't know if it's Genghis Khan," he paused and said, "If you are surrounded like this, it is better to simply kill them, kill their commander, kill them happily, and die happily." In fact, Lou Renmang had other plans in his heart, but he was arrogant.

"Not yet," Nie Motian muttered, "we'll wait until it's dark." ”

Lou Ren looked to the west, and there was still more than an hour before sunset. "Well, we can recuperate now, and when it gets dark, we'll rush down and get out of the chaos. ”

"Hehe!" a voice suddenly sounded behind them, "I'm afraid you don't have this chance." ”

Nie Lou and the others were startled at the same time, they were talking while guarding their surroundings, even the leaves were alert, but this person actually came behind him unconsciously, as if flying out of thin air.

As soon as this person's voice fell, a voice came from front of them: "Hehe, you can't wait for dark." ”

Lou Ren stood up recklessly, holding a gun in hand, but saw a short woman. She was about thirty touches, but she was dressed as a child, wearing a red jacket, blush on her face, red lips, two pigtails on her head, and a round thing in her hand. "Who!" he pointed his gun at the woman.

Nie Motian turned his head and saw a man standing not far away. The man was short and stocky, and looked to be quite old, but he was also dressed as a child, wearing a white jacket, white circles under his eyes, shaved hair, and holding a round object in his hand. Looking at this strange man, Nie Motian also asked, "Who is it?"

The woman smiled and said, "Two spies from the Kingdom of Jin, there is nowhere to hide." ”

Nie Motian thought to himself, it turned out that they regarded us as spies of the Jin Kingdom, no wonder the Mongolian soldiers were so desperate to chase after us. But what is the origin of these two strangely dressed people? "We are not Jin country spies, we are Han Chinese. He said aloud.

"Han Chinese?" said the man, "how did you sneakily hide in the woods and kill a dozen soldiers?"

"It was a misunderstanding. "Nie Motian Dao.

"Our commander wants to arrest you back, so come with us obediently. ”

Lou Ren took a step forward: "It's not that easy. ”

The woman smiled: "Then take it." She spun the round object in her hand, and the man on the other side also spun the object in her hand. Nie Motian stood up, his short sword in his chest.

Suddenly, two spinning things flew towards them, the round blade flashed, drawing two long arcs in the air, Nie Motian lowered his head to dodge, Lou Renmang used a gun to block, who expected that the round blade was extremely sharp, and Lou Renmang's gun was cut into two sections. The two rotating blades staggered up and down, and then swirled back and forth. "Shadowless Twin Flying Blades!" Nie Motian suddenly remembered and asked, "It's the Red Devil Child and the White Devil Child?"

"Hey," said the woman, "you know us." ”

"Fortunately!" Nie Motian thought in his heart, these two fierce rivals were really difficult to deal with. "I've heard of it for a long time. He said.

"Who are you?" the man asked, looking disdainful.

Nie Motian snorted: "I'm Nie Motian of the Qingcheng faction!"

"Haven't heard of it. However, the Qingcheng Divine Fox fought with us, and that year at the Wushan Conference, the Qingcheng Divine Fox played a few hands of Hundred Beast Fists, two times, two times. He said. The woman on the other side laughed, and the laughter was shrill as if her throat had been raised.

Nie Motian was angry when he heard him insult the Qingcheng gods, but he didn't want to entangle with them, so he thought of a way to get out. Lou Ren knew his intentions and said to the two people: "I heard that the Red Devil Child and the White Devil Child are not masters in the world, so naturally they don't take their martial arts colleagues seriously." But you have always been dashing and have no quarrel with the world, but how can you be willing to serve the Mongols?" he deliberately described the two as chivalrous. He wanted to say, "How did you become the dogs and horses of the Mongols?" but he was afraid of angering the two men.

The man said, "We are willing to serve the Mongols, so why don't you also submit to it, and help the Great Khan win the world and enjoy the glory and wealth together?"

Nie Motian was finally furious: "You are Han Chinese!

Lou Ren saw that Nie Motian said righteously, and echoed him: "Yes, you are Han Chinese, how can you help foreign countries?"

Although Nie Lou and the others are not very righteous and benevolent, they still have a little national integrity.

"We are not Han," said the woman, "although I am Han born, but I grew up drinking the milk of my nurse, who is Mongolian, so the Red Devil Boy is also a Mongolian." ”

The man on the other side said, "Since the Red Devil Child is a Mongolian, then we will blend together day by day, and my White Devil Child will also become a Mongolian." Haha, haha!" he grinned, and the Red Devil laughed along.

Seeing that the logic of these two people was strange and confusing, and they were arguing with strong words, Nie Motian could only shake his head helplessly. The White Devil Child and the Red Devil Child are dressed like children, and their heads seem to be like children.

"Are you going or not?" said the Red Devil, "if not, we'll go on." She spun the weapon again.

Nie Motian was wounded by an arrow, and Lou Renmang did not recover, and after a fight with the Mongolian soldiers, he did not have time to rest, and when he met such an opponent, both of them had the intention of cowardice. Lou Ren clenched his fists and said: "We have no intention of being enemies with you, although we are not comrades, we are still good for our own safety, if I am planted here, I will never give up on my Hongdaomen." He moved out of the sect, hoping for a little bit of deterrence.

The white devil kid didn't care at all, and said "hey", "Hongdaomen? Xuanling Sword Technique is a must." But why are you holding a wooden handle? What Hongdaomen, Qingcheng faction, has nothing to do with us, you annoyed the third prince today, so you have to follow us obediently. ”

Lou Renmang and Nie Motian glanced at each other, knowing that it was necessary to fight fiercely today, so they had to pick up their weapons and prepare for the battle.

Suddenly, there was a trumpet sound of varying lengths from outside the hill, as if to signal something. The White Devil said to the Red Devil, "Is this the Formation Signal or what?"

The Red Devil said, "It's the Formation Horn." ”

At this time, various horns were heard in the distance. "It seems that the Jin Kingdom has come to fight. The Red Devil said.

Nie Motian glanced down the hill and saw the Mongol cavalry withdrawing one after another.

"Shall we go back, lady?" the White Devil asked her.

"Arrest them first, Xianggong, let's go back. ”

"Okay," the White Devil Child agreed, and said to Nie Motian, "We're here to get you, haha." He swirled his blade and threw it towards Nie Motian.

The red devil child and the white devil child screamed at each other, but Nie Lou and the others didn't dare to laugh, seeing that they swirled the round blade again, the two didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly dodged to the side.

The Red Devil shouted, "Xianggong, let's go in circles." The White Devil Kid said hello, and ran in circles around Nie Lou and the Red Devil Kid, throwing the round blade at them as they ran. They ran faster and faster, and saw two people blowing around them like the wind, and the blades flashed in the meantime, and the sound of breaking the air seemed to be heard on all sides. Nie Motian swung his short sword to chase after him, but he never touched the weapon that was spinning in the air. After a few laps like this, it seems that the circle is getting smaller and smaller. Lou Renmang held a severed gun in each hand, blocking horizontally and vertically, but he couldn't touch the flying blade that came and went. Suddenly, the White Devil Child and the Red Devil Child jumped towards them, they hurriedly blocked upwards, the White Devil Child and the Red Devil Child swapped positions in the air, and together they palmed, the palm wind carried the flying blade, covering Nie Lou and the two of them, Nie Motian screamed, the round blade slashed across the chest, and Lou Renmang was almost hit by the White Devil's palm.

Not long after, Nie Motian's shoulder was injured by a round blade again, which happened to be the location of the arrow wound. Nie Motian roared and threw himself at the Red Devil Child, but the White Devil Child quickly joined forces with the Red Devil Child, and the two of them retracted their blades to meet Nie Motian's incoming sword, and after a few soft sounds, Nie Motian's short sword almost got out of his hand, only to shake his wrist in great pain.

The White Devil Kid smiled and said: "Hongdaomen, Qingcheng faction, they all use swords, you are holding two small toys, but you call yourself from the Qingcheng faction of Hongdaomen, let's call your ancestor and grandmother." The Red Devil laughed.

These words of the White Devil Kid reminded Lou Renman. Looking at Nie Motian, who was becoming more and more overwhelmed, Lou Renmang approached Nie Motian and said, "Why don't we use the sword together, and I will teach you the sword technique of Xuanling swordsmanship." He threw away the half-cut stick in his left hand and said: "Heaven and earth rush back, the dragon changes into it, Xun lives in the southeast, and the wind blows its shape." He placed the half of the gun in his right hand across his chest, then turned around and moved around, flipping the head of the gun to the right, pointing to the southeast.

Nie Motian will know, with a flat sword in his chest, drawing an arc to the left, and pointing to the northwest. Lou Renmang recited again: "Heaven and earth rush forward, become tiger wings, Gen lives in the northwest, and the cloud lord has its appearance." "The sword technique recited by Lou Renmang is the mantra of the Xuanling Sword Technique of Hongdaomen, and the Xuanling Sword Technique is derived from the Eight Arrays created by Zhuge Liang in the Three Kingdoms Era. When Zhuge Liang resisted the enemy, he piled up stones into a stone formation, and divided into eight gates of "life, injury, rest, Du, Jing, death, shock, and opening" according to Dunjia, which changed and could block 100,000 elite soldiers. And the Xuanling swordsmanship is also passed on to be subtle. The Qingcheng faction already has the shadow of Taoism, so even if Lou Renmang can comprehend the sword trick Nie Motian, the white devil child and the red devil child are very confused.

Nie Lou and the others had not recovered, and they were injured again, they were originally at a disadvantage, but after performing the Xuanling Sword Technique, they were still able to resist for a while. However, the Xuanling Sword Technique needs internal force to assist, at first, the Red Devil Child and the White Devil Child could not get close under the defense of the two Xuanling Formation, but after all, the two of them lacked strength, and under the attack of the Shadowless Twin Flying Blades as fast as lightning, they were weak and sluggish after a while, and sweat was like rain.

"Xianggong, what kind of formation are they? The Red Devil said.

Nie Motian approached Lou Renmang's side and said in a low voice, "Let's fight that red devil boy together." Lou Renmang nodded. So they returned their swords together and attacked the Red Devil. Seeing this, the White Devil Child hurried back to help. But Nie Lou and the others were just recruiting the Red Devil Kid, and they wanted to restrain one first. The White Devil Kid slammed his sword behind them, but the Red Devil Kid didn't have time to make a sword and retreated. Seeing that a bush of thorns behind the red devil child blocked the cliff, Lou Ren recklessly recited the seventh sword trick, and the two of them divided the Qianshi and Kun potential, the upper seal and the lower one, the sword qi rotated, and the red devil child turned back, but the two of them did not stop, the Xuanling sword qi always covered the body, and the flying blade of the white devil child also came in an instant.

Nie Lou and the others knew that this opportunity was fleeting, so they almost used all their strength, the sword momentum was fast, and although the Red Devil Child dodged, his abdomen was still stabbed by the tip of Nie Motian's sword a few inches. And the flying blade of the White Devil Child also slashed Nie Motian's arm, and at the same time slapped Lou Renmang. Lou Renmang only felt that his internal organs were shaken, and the white devil child also screamed. Nie Lou and the two of them rolled to the ground like a crossbow.

The Red Devil clutched his abdomen, blood oozing slightly. The White Devil Child eagerly ran to her side: "Lady, I'm hurt!"

"It seems to have broken the skin, Xianggong. The White Devil Child turned his head angrily and said to Nie Motian, who was sitting up from the ground, "I can't spare you now." ”

Lou Renmang suddenly laughed: "Your lady is dying, do you still have the heart to fight?"

"What?" said the White Devil.

"The sword has been coated with poison by me, and the poison is spreading in your lady's stomach, and when it reaches the heart, it will never be saved. If you hurry up and help your lady force out the poison now, you may be able to suffer for a few days. ”

The White Devil Child looked at Lou Renmang suspiciously, and Lou Renmang laughed a few more times. The White Devil Boy lifted the Red Devil Child's clothes and checked: "Why don't you see the blackness?" ”

The Red Devil Child will also be suspicious and say: "Xianggong, I don't feel any pain at all, they are not lying to us." ”

"These three-day ghosts are different from ordinary poisons, and there are no symptoms on the surface when they are poisoned, but since they are called three-day ghosts, they will only see Hades after three days. You press down on the left finger of the Qi Sea Acupoint, do you feel sore?" Lou Ren said recklessly.

"Xianggong, I don't know what Qi Sea Cave is?"

The White Devil Child frowned, raised his blade and pointed at Lou Renmang: "What Qi Sea Acupoint, we don't know anything about what acupoint path, what if you let us press the Death Acupoint?"

Lou Ren said recklessly: "The two of them have superb martial arts, how can they die so easily? What's more, if there is really a death point, and you accidentally touch or bump into it when you are usually moving, sitting and lying down, wouldn't everyone say that you will die? ”

The White Devil Child felt reasonable, leaned over to the Red Devil Child, and pressed the place where Lou Renmang said: "How is it?"

"It's a bit sore. The Red Devil said. How did she know that anything that hurt was there, that part would be sore.

The White Devil Child snorted and said, "Even if it's true, then I'll kill him and get the antidote." The Red Devil clapped his hands: "Yes, yes, kill him, get the antidote." ”

"It's a pity," Lou Ren said recklessly, "It's useless for you to kill me, these three-day ghosts are a strange poison in the world, and there is no antidote at all." If you don't believe me, you can give it a try. ”

"Xianggong, I'm going to die!" said the Red Devil Kid with a grin.

Lou Ren said recklessly: "Although there is no antidote, I said, with your skills, now hurry up and force the poison, and you can slow down for a few days, if you supplement it with some elixir, you may be able to live for a year and a half." Or she's dead, and there's no one to play with you. "The white devil child was already simple-minded and chaotic, but now he was eager to save his wife, and hurriedly helped the red devil child to force the poison with palm power, and the red devil child was also busy sitting down and lucky. I saw a very fine stream of blood spurting out of the wound.

Lou Ren glanced at Angel Nie Mo. Nie Motian's face was covered with sweat, his eyes wanted to be closed, and the clothes on his upper body had been stained red with blood, obviously because he was not lightly injured. And Lou Renmang himself is as soft as mud. The two struggled to their feet and walked to the horse, which was tethered not far away.

In the distance, an urgent trumpet sounded, the sun was already setting west, and the setting sun was filled with a twilight like smoke and mist, as if the Mongol army had slowly marched, or that two armies were facing each other.

Lou Renmang mounted his horse and looked back, only to see the White Devil Child glaring at him. His heart trembled, and he said, "Remember, she can't use force, otherwise the poison will spread faster." ”

"What are the elixirs you are talking about, where can I get them?" asked the White Devil Child.

"There is a Luojia shop five miles east of here, I left the prescription there at the inn, you can go and get it yourself." ”

Lou Ren was in a hurry to get out, not wanting to entangle with him for too long, so he hurriedly hit his horse down the mountain, and Nie Motian hurriedly followed.

They rushed down the hillside, and Lou Ren looked back at the hill, and the white devil boy still seemed to be staring at them. "We have to get out of here quickly, Lou Renmang said to Nie Motian, the Mongolian army is nearby, there must be a military doctor in the army, if the red and white devil boy returns to the army, find a doctor to call the pulse, and find that he is not poisoned, he will definitely chase after him." The farther away we are, the better. ”

Nie Motian nodded, he didn't even seem to have the strength to speak now. Lou Renmang glanced at him and urged his mount. The two of them galloped towards the southeast like mourning.

Nie Motian and Lou Renmang rode their horses all the way, not daring to stop, and ran for a long time until they could not hear the horn of the Mongol army.

It was already dark, and after they had passed through a wood, Nie Motian could no longer support it, and as soon as he pulled the reins, the horse raised its front hooves, and he fell off the horse. Lou Renmang also followed and strangled the horse's head.

There was a faint sound of a dog barking in the distance, and if you listened closely, there seemed to be a wolf howling. "There should be a village nearby, and we should rush forward and maybe settle down in the village. Lou Renmang said.

"Aren't you afraid that the red and white devil children will chase after you?" Nie Motian gasped.

"We've run so far and they can catch up? Lou Ren said recklessly, "I'm so far away from the Daimyo's Mansion, you can chase me all the way." If they chase us madly, they won't necessarily be able to catch up. ”

Nie Motian sat under the tree and closed his eyes.

Lou Renmang tied the horse to the branch, looked at Nie Motian on the side and said, "If you didn't have to tie that picture to the tree, we wouldn't have such a big trouble." ”

Nie Motian opened his eyes slightly: "Yes, you and I both agree to put the map on the tree, and whoever wins can take the map." ”

"You've always been afraid that I will use my palm to polish the handwriting on the map. ”

"Forgive me, your kung fu has not reached that kind of supernatural situation. ”

"But you're still afraid, ha, I'm afraid that you won't be able to get the picture in my arms after you win me, or don't dare to take it. ”

Nie Motian snorted.

"You taught me the Qigong method, I passed on your Xuanling sword technique, we can be regarded as helping each other, and no one owes anyone. Lou Ren said recklessly.

"That's good!" Nie Motian said, "When we recover our strength, let's fight again!"

When the two of them are in the presence of the great enemy, they can fight together with the enemy, and once there is no danger, the two of them begin to have their own scheming and want to fight.

Lou Ren looked up to the sky and laughed: "You are dying now, and you are already in danger, do you know? What strength do you have to compete with me? Although I have also lost a lot of strength, it is still more than enough to deal with the head of Nie who is lying here like an old woman now." ”

Nie Motian's face was solemn: "What do you want?"

Lou Renmang walked five steps away from Nie Motian, picked up the tip of the spear and said, "Do you feel that your internal breath is getting weaker and weaker, and do you feel more and more difficult when you make moves against the Red Devil Child?"

"The golden medicine you gave me turned out to be really poison!"

Lou Renmang sat down slowly, and looked at Nie Motian with a smile: "What I gave you is indeed a golden medicine, but what about it, I quietly played some three-day ghosts in it." I don't want you to become weaker at that time, why do I have to stay until dark, if you don't help me deal with those Mongolian soldiers, how can I get out? You also know the medicinal properties of these three-day ghosts, the harder you exert yourself, the faster you attack, and if you fight to the death like you, it won't take half a day to get poisoned. Ha, thanks to you and me teaming up against the Red Devil and the White Devil, I wouldn't have been able to escape. ”

"Hongdaomen seems to be full of despicable villains!"

"No matter how shameless you call me a villain, it won't affect my reputation in the rivers and lakes. ”

"What's your reputation?"

"No matter what my reputation is, at least I can still walk in the rivers and lakes, what about you, the invincible Nie Master, tonight you will become a pile of rotten bones gnawed by wild wolves in this wilderness. Tut-tut, you say I'm a villain, don't you also use all the unscrupulous means to chase me all the way? My sword and horse are still forced to fall in that inn, and you have exhausted all your skills, and in the end, haven't you been planted in my Lou Renmang's hands?

Nie Motian's face turned blue and glared at Lou Renman.

Lou Ren smiled recklessly and sighed softly: "I originally wanted to keep you here and I went back alone, but I have changed my mind now." If you die here and are found by the same people you are looking for, you will inevitably suspect me, and besides, you will not look very good at being gnawed by wild wolves and wild dogs. I'll be a good person, keep your whole body, and bury you here. Don't worry, at this time of year in the future, as long as I, Lou Renmang, am still alive, I will definitely come to worship you, and it can be regarded as a friendship. ”

Nie Motian sighed: "You said so chivalrous, then I should thank you." He closed his eyes, and that's it, that's it, it's okay, it's a good one. ”

Lou Ren stared at him recklessly, secretly gathering his anger, but he didn't dare to step forward, he was also afraid that Nie Motian still had some strength. Nie Motian's lips opened, wanting to say something, but slowly closed them again. Lou Renmang sat opposite Nie Motian for more than two hours, and saw that Nie Motian seemed to have run out of oil and the lamp had dried up, and he didn't move, so he finally made up his mind to do it.

He stood up, walked up to Nie Motian, pointed the tip of his gun at his chest, and said, "I'm sorry, Master Nie." "Poke the gun down. Suddenly, Nie Motian raised his left hand, grabbed the head of the gun, and pulled out the short sword sitting under his buttocks with his right hand, which was originally hanging aside, and said that it was too late, it was too fast, and the short sword was inserted into Lou Renmang's stomach. The change was very fast, and Lou Renmang, who was caught off guard, hurriedly retreated, and at the same time fought back with his palm, Nie Motian also greeted him, Lou Renmang fell to the ground with his back in his back, and Nie Motian also collapsed back under the force.

Lou Renmang grabbed the hilt of the sword inserted in his stomach, his chest rose and fell, and his face was full of horror: "It turns out that you are pretending to be dead!"

"Hmph," Nie Motian said, "After applying your golden creation medicine, I felt it when I started with the White Devil Child, in order to suppress the toxicity, I have been lucky, I would rather take several blades without a shadow than let you see it." ”

"So what? Do you think you can get through it?" Lou Ren recklessly said, "There is no antidote to these three days ghosts, you will die sooner or later, let's die together, let's die together......

Nie Motian slowly got up and crawled towards Lou Renmang, "Finally, you are one step ahead of me, let's go!" He held down the hilt of his sword and plunged deeply into Lou Renmang's stomach. Lou Renmang's eyes rolled and he suddenly lost his breath.

The wind swept the forest slightly, and the moonlight was pale. Nie Motian pulled out his short sword and wiped the blood stains with Lou Renman's reckless clothes. There was a terrible howl of wolves again. He took out the cowhide map in Lou Renmang's arms and muttered, "For this, I want to die in this place." He put the cowhide on his forehead, hated and regretted, and spat in Lou Ren's reckless face.

There was a small sound not far away, the horse tied to the edge of the forest neighed, Nie Motian was startled, and hurriedly grabbed Lou Renmang's corpse, crawled forward, he pushed and pulled Lou Renmang's body to a place a little farther away from the woods, he knew that the smell of blood on Lou Renmang's body would attract wild wolves sooner or later, and this forest was sparsely wooded, and he was afraid that he would be discovered by wolves. He slowly crawled back to the edge of the forest, only to see a few shadows in the darkness rushing towards Lou Renmang's body. Although he knew that his life would be short, Nie Motian couldn't help but be frightened when he saw the hungry wolf gnawing on the corpse. He thought to himself, I can't fall into the wolf's mouth. He grabbed a branch and climbed up the branch with all his might, he wanted to climb a little higher, but he had no strength, so he moved his upper body to the higher branch as much as he could, and stuck one leg between the trunks.

Before long, more black shadows came out of the forest, and it seemed that it was not a pack of wolves, or that there were wild dogs among them, and they were snatching and tearing at the carcass, and they were biting and fighting with each other. Nie Motian looked frightened and simply closed his eyes. The two horses screamed, stood up and kicked their front hooves. One of the horses broke off a branch and ran away as desperately as he could.

This lasted until the morning light was faintly clear. Nie Motian suddenly felt a pain in his right foot, and when he looked at it, it turned out that a gray wolf jumped up and bit his right foot that was hanging under the trunk. Nie Motian gritted his teeth and took out his short sword and swung it, but he was already weak and weak, and he couldn't bend down to kill the gray wolf. At this time, another wolf ran over, jumped up, and pounced on his other leg, Nie Motian moved his leg and swung his sword downward, but the wolf still kept jumping up and attacking. Nie Motian felt that the foot bitten by the first wolf was almost broken, and the wolf stepped on the ground with its hind feet, grabbed the tree with its front feet, and bit his feet with its fangs, and his head shook back and forth with his legs. At this moment, suddenly the wolf let go and fell to the ground, and the other also "whined" and rolled to the ground. I saw a figure flying over, slashing a few swords, stabbing the two wolves to death, the man stood with his back to the tree, pointed his sword at the other wolf who was pounced, when the wolf pounced into the air, this person swung his sword, the wolf's head left the wolf's body, and flew diagonally to the side, and the wolf's neck splashed blood fell in front of him. He kicked away the three dead wolves on the ground and turned to look at Nie Motian's bloodied feet.

"Thank you!" Nie Motian gasped.

The man raised his head and looked at Nie Motian: "You're welcome. "It was a simplely dressed young man, with somewhat disheveled hair, and he had an angular face, eyebrows like swords, and a melancholy gaze.

"Is your house nearby?" the boy asked him.

"No, I'm passing through. ”

"You need to get out of here. ”

Nie Motian shook his head: "I can't walk anymore." ”

The young man frowned, hesitated, and then nodded: "I'll carry you." ”

"Thank you!" Nie Motian put the short sword back into its sheath and, with the help of the young man, lay down on the young man's back. "What do you call a young man?"

"My surname is Huo, and my name is Xing'an. ”

"In the lower Nie Motian. Nie Motian originally thought that he would definitely die, but he was suddenly saved, and he felt that he could still survive for a while, so he was very polite.

The young man carried Nie Motian on his back and walked out of the forest. The skeleton of the other horse, which had not escaped last night, was left in the sky, and the wolves had scattered in all directions, and the wind was blowing the weeds everywhere like a thin wave.

"Listening to your accent, it doesn't seem to be a local?" Nie Motian asked him.

"I'm also passing through here. The boy said, "I don't know if there is a village nearby, but you are seriously injured." ”

"Huo Shaoxia is hard, but I won't live long," Nie Motian sighed, "It's just a moment and a half." ”

"It didn't hurt the vital parts, so you might as well. The boy said.

"It's a long story, I was plotted by someone, and I have been poisoned into the five internal organs, but I have survived until now with a breath of internal energy. Even if Hua Tuo is reincarnated and Bian Que is resurrected, he will not be able to save him. ”

"This ......," the boy did not know how to answer.

Nie Motian pointed to a mountain not far away and said, "I only have one last wish, I don't know if Huo Shaoxia can fulfill it?"

Huo Xingan said: "Please say, as long as I can do it, I will definitely do it." ”

"I, Nie Motian, have been competitive all my life, and I am unwilling to be subordinate," Nie Motian sighed, "I die here today, but I want to be buried on the top of that mountain, even if I die, I must also be above the sky, not trampled on the ground." ”

Huo Xing thought with peace of mind, this person's idea is really strange, even if you are buried on the top of that mountain, it is still in the soil, what is the difference between high and low. But he still agreed to Nie Motian's request.

He strode forward with Nie Motian on his back, looking at the hill in front of him, but he walked for a long time. At the foot of the mountain, he put Nie Motian on the ground, Nie Motian closed his eyes and did not speak. Huo Xing'an thought he was dead, and hurriedly probed his nose and found that he was still breathing. He picked up the gourd he had brought with him and fed the water to Nie Motian to drink. "Brother Nie, you're going up the mountain soon, how are you?" Nie Motian opened his eyes slightly and nodded.

Something suddenly occurred to him. "Brother Nie, I have a few Hui Tian Pills on my body, which are used to replenish Qi and Guyuan after suffering internal injuries. I don't know what kind of poison you have, this can't be the antidote, but maybe it can give you some strength, give it a try?" he took out a small box and took out a pill. Seeing Nie Motian nodding, he gently put it into his mouth.

Nie Motian closed his eyes again and didn't open them for a long time. Huo Xingan didn't know what was wrong with him, and thought to himself, since he promised him, then a good person should do it to the end. He looked at the top of the mountain, then at Nie Motian, and asked softly, "Brother Nie, I'll carry you up now?" Seeing that Nie Motian didn't respond, he thought about it and stepped forward to carry Nie Motian on his back, but although Nie Motian didn't lose his breath, he seemed to be paralyzed like a dead man, and his hands couldn't cooperate to hold Huo Xingan's shoulders, Huo Xingan had to bend over and climb towards the mountain half-walking and half-climbing. After climbing more than halfway, the mountain became steep, coupled with the bushes, the posture of bending over became very inconvenient, Huo Xingan simply held Nie Motian in his hand, took a deep breath, and quickened his pace. Gravel and sand fell down the hillside, and he jumped left and right, and soon reached the top of the mountain. He let out a long breath and slowly put down Nie Motian. Nie Motian suddenly opened his eyes. "Huo Shaoxia has good kung fu at his feet. His voice was still weak, but there was some energy in his eyes.

Huo Xing'an said: "I grew up in the mountains, and I walked up and down the mountains every day, so I got used to it. ”

Nie Motian lay on the ground, looked at the sky, and said, "I'm tired of Huo Shaoxia." I, Nie Motian, sleep here for a long time, and I am also at ease. ”

"Brother Nie doesn't have to be polite. ”

Nie Motian pointed to the short sword on his waist and said, "Please also ask Huo Shaoxia to choose a clean place and dig a place to stay." "He had a lot of silver taels on him, but he was determined to bury him quietly, and he did not buy a coffin or erect a monument. He has been chasing all the way here from Shuzhong for more than half a year, knowing that this death will never be able to be moved back to the land of Bashu, I just hope that no one will know. Huo Xing'an took his short sword, drew his long sword again, and prepared to choose a place with thick soil on the top of this mountain. He walked around and found that they were all abrupt stones, and there were no layers of soil, so he looked down the slope and finally found a small cave on the steep slope near the top of the mountain. He came back and told Nie Motian about the situation, Nie Motian nodded, thinking that it would be okay to use the hole as a coffin.

Huo Xingan returned the short sword to Nie Motian, Nie Motian waved his hand lightly, and said: "Duomeng helps, I don't have anything of value on me, so I will give this sword to Huo Shaoxia to show my gratitude." ”

Huo Xingan saw that this short sword blade was indeed a good sword, but he didn't want to be given casually, so he waved his hand and declined. Nie Motian insisted on letting Huo Xing'an accept it, and said: "You and I meet in Pingshui, it can be regarded as fate, this sword is not a famous weapon, but it is also superior." He motioned for Huo Xingan to take off the scabbard at his waist, "Huo Shaoxia seems to have been instructed by a famous teacher, I don't know who the respected teacher is?"

Huo Xingan didn't want to say his master's name, but when he saw that this person was about to die, he felt that it was nothing to tell him, so he replied, "My master's name is Xiao Tianzu." ”

"Oh, it's the Old Monster of Changbai, I've heard of this person. ”

"My master is in the mountains all year round and rarely goes down the mountain. ”

"I heard that Xiao Tianzu's swordsmanship is good. ”

"But I'm a rough learner, and I'm still far from Master. ”

"Huo Shaoxia is too modest, the sword that stabbed the wolf before was very neat. Nie Motian's voice weakened.

Huo Xingan looked at Nie Motian, thinking that he was about to sink out again. Nie Motian pointed to a large stone next to him and motioned for Huo Xing'an to move him over. So Huo Xing'an carried him to the side of the stone and leaned his back against the stone as he wanted. "Xiao Tianzu's swordsmanship is good, but it is not famous in the world, but it is famous for its eccentric personality. His voice was weak, and Huo Xingan could only listen closer. Nie Motian said slowly: "The swordsmanship of the world, there are four uniques in the south, have you heard of it?"

"I grew up hearing that 'there are four swords in the south of the sky and three swords in the north of the earth,'" Huo Xing'an said, "I don't know if it's the 'four swords in the south' that you said." ”

"What you said is exact, everyone in the martial arts knows it. Do you know which four swords they are?"

"It is the Zen heart swordsmanship of Shaolin Temple, the Xuanling swordsmanship of Hongdaomen, the Zixu swordsmanship that is said to have been lost in the Wuzhong area, and the soulless swordsmanship of the ghost girl of the Moon Worship Sect. ”

"That's right," Nie Motian said, "Among them, the Xuanling Sword Technique of the Hongdao Sect is the wonderful essence of the Gate, and it is derived from the formation, which is much more sophisticated than the Sword Technique of the Changbai Old Monster." ”

Huo Xing'an looked at him, a little strange, I don't know why he suddenly talked about swordsmanship when he was dying. "Huo Shaoxia," Nie Motian said.

Huo Xing'an said: "Brother Nie, you can just call me Xing'an." ”

"Okay, Brother Xing'an, I'll pass on the Xuanling Sword Technique to you now......"

"This," Huo Xing'an was surprised and delighted, "Brother Nie is from Hongdaomen?"

"No, I'm the head of the Qingcheng faction in the Shushan faction. This Xuanling swordsmanship is also a sword trick that you have just learned, so you can write it down. ”

Huo Xingan suddenly received this gift, as if he had received no merit, and he didn't know how to answer. "Brother Nie gave me a short sword, I am already grateful, this Xuanling swordsmanship ......"

Nie Motian nodded and said, "I said, you remember!"

Seeing that Nie Motian insisted on teaching, Huo Xingan knelt down and arched his hand: "Disciple Huo Xing'an is taught by the master!"

"This master-apprentice gift is avoided," Nie Motian said, "It's just that in the future, don't mention the matter of teaching you swordsmanship." ”

Huo Xing thought with peace of mind, this big brother Nie acted a little strangely, but he was generous, maybe his personality was like this, so he nodded and agreed. Nie Motian began to recite the sword technique, reciting it very slowly, the chanting stopped, his voice was sticky, Huo Xingan silently remembered, picked up another branch, and wrote it on the ground. The changes in this sword technique were difficult for him to understand for a while, and Nie Motian couldn't compare and teach them, so he could only record them first. After that, Nie Motian read it again and briefly described the meaning of the words that Huo Xingan didn't understand. Since ancient times, the swordsmanship has been connected, but this Xuanling swordsmanship needs to be familiar with the skills of the formation elephant position, so Huo Xingan seems to understand it. Nie Motian knew that it was difficult for him to grasp it immediately, so he didn't explain much, just let him keep it in mind. After teaching the sword technique, Nie Motian passed on a set of Qingcheng faction boxing techniques to Huo Xing'an. Huo Xingan only said that he was dying and was good at life, and he wanted to teach himself what he had learned all his life.

After passing the boxing method, Nie Motian's face was already as pale as paper, Huo Xing'an saw this, and took out another Huitian Pill, but Nie Motian shook his head lightly and said to Huo Xingan: "I am already powerless to return to heaven, don't bother." He sighed softly, "It's just that there is something on his mind......"

Huo Xingan hurriedly said: "Brother Nie still has any unfulfilled wishes, I'll help you complete them!"

Nie Motian looked at Huo Xing'an, with relief in his eyes. He struggled to raise his hand and pointed to his chest. At his signal, Huo Xingan took out a broken cowhide from his chest. "...... this?"

"This is something from our Qingcheng faction, not something of value, but it is very important to our Qingcheng faction. If Brother Huo can help me send back to the Qingcheng faction, I will be blind to death. ”

Huo Xingan rolled the cowhide and put it in his arms without hesitation, and said, "Brother Nie, don't worry, I will definitely help you send it back!"

"Brother Huo is really chivalrous, if I had met you earlier, I would have married you to Jinlan. ”

Although it is said that "when a person is about to die, his words are also good", the Xuanling swordsmanship that Nie Motian passed on to Huo Xing'an from Lou Renmang and a set of boxing techniques from the Qingcheng faction were not entirely out of gratitude. As the head of a faction, he always remembers the trust of the former head, and wants to return the half of the map he chased to his own faction, so that he met Huo Xing'an before he died, and felt that he could be entrusted, but he went to Bashu Road a long way, and he was afraid that Huo Xing'an had no intention of doing it, so in addition to giving him a short sword, he specially passed on to him Xuanling swordsmanship and a set of boxing techniques, hoping that Huo Xing'an could return the map to the Qingcheng faction with a heart of retribution, not to violate his wishes.

After that, Nie Motian told Huo Xing'an not to have a coffin, not to bury him, and not to alarm the nearby villagers, and Huo Xing'an agreed one by one.

Nie Motian closed his eyes and never opened them again. Huo Xingan shouted "Brother Nie" a few times, but Nie Motian did not react. The sun was scorching, and Nie Motian's body quickly cooled down.

Huo Xingan knelt in front of Nie Motian's body and kowtowed respectfully. Although he did not have the status of master and apprentice, Huo Xingan shouted "Master" in his heart. He carried Nie Motian's body to the side of the small cave, which was not big, and curled up slightly just enough to accommodate a person. He broke a lot of branches and leaves, spread them in the hole, then put Nie Motian in it, filled it with soil, and finally blocked the hole with a few stones.

He returned to the top of the mountain. The mountain wind was so strong that it almost blew the handwriting on the ground into obscurity. He hurriedly sketched it again with a branch, and at the same time read it again and again, memorizing the sword trick.

Looking at the four fields under the vast sky, Huo Xing'an recalled Nie Motian's words just now, and he said in his heart: I am entrusted by Brother Nie, even if there are thousands of mountains and rivers, I will also send this thing back to the Qingcheng faction.

There were few floating clouds, and his expression suddenly darkened again. He remembered that there was more important work to be done. In the depths of his heart, like a cold wind blowing through the chaotic and slaughtering earth, and like a barren mountain tiger howling, and a reckless bear roaring, he slowly gritted his teeth, the hatred on his face was revealed, he held the hilt of the sword, and his five fingers were tightly clasped, as if he wanted to slash out at any time with cold light, slashing at the surroundings.

Coming down from that nameless hill, Huo Xing'an found a nearby village and rested. He was all the way down from the north, because he learned a clue, and turned westward from Dading Mansion, all the way to visit, who knew that the clue was wrong, and he couldn't find it, so he had to turn back and go southeast, and unfortunately met Nie Motian. He was entrusted by Nie Motian's dying to set off to Shudi, but he thought of his mission and decided to continue to go south first, and it was not too late to detour back to Bashu while visiting. Before at the border of the Xia Kingdom, the carriage and horse he was riding were stolen by thieves, and he was trapped all the way. He thought it would be better to buy a horse with better feet than he could ride. In fact, Nie Motian had a lot of silver taels on his body, but Huo Xing'an got the short sword given by Nie Motian, and even more so the swordsmanship and boxing techniques taught by him, he was already grateful, and he was extremely respectful to Nie Motian's body, not to mention the silver taels, everything he carried with him was not touched. He touched his body, there was still a little bit of broken silver, and he didn't know if he could get one with the nearby villagers.

The next day, Huo Xing'an had just woken up at the house where he was staying, when he heard someone shouting loudly outside the door. He dressed and went to the ground, leaned close to the door to listen, only to hear someone shouting "Nie Motian" and "Lou Renmang". Startled, he opened the door and saw a strangely dressed man and a woman shouting as they walked around the village. He hurriedly walked a few steps forward to ask what was going on, and suddenly it occurred to him that these two people were looking for Nie Motian, and they didn't know if it was an enemy or a relative, or it was better not to be reckless. These two people are the Red Devil Child and the White Devil Child, after being deceived by Lou Renmang on the bald ridge and saying that they were poisoned, they will be suspicious of the use of power to force the poison, most of the day has passed, and they have not found anything unusual, so they chased them over, and went to the Luo family store that Lou Renmang said to look for medicine, but found that they were fooled, and they were even more annoyed, and they inquired about the whereabouts of Nie Lou and the two in the villages within a radius of several miles, but they did not know that the two had already died. The white devil child saw that Huo Xing'an was about to step forward, but he paused again, and Huo Xing'an's dress was obviously not like the local villagers, so he jumped over and asked him viciously: "Did you see a person named Nie Motian and Lou Renmang passing by here?"

Huo Xing'an said, "Who are you Nie Motian?"

The White Devil Child frowned and said, "Who do you care we are, have you seen him?"

Seeing the strange appearance of the white devil child, Huo Xingan felt that he had no good intentions, so he said: "I have a relationship with this person named Nie Motian, but,"

"But how?" asked the White Devil anxiously.

But he was not on the same road as him, he had gone east. Huo Xingan pointed to the east.

"Go east!" The White Devil Child grabbed Huo Xing'an's collar, "If you dare to lie to me, we won't spare you!" The White Devil Child was short, and he grabbed Huo Xing'an's collar like a child fighting. But Huo Xingan did not take it lightly, he secretly touched the hilt of the sword on his waist with his left hand, ready to fight back at any time. At this time, the Red Devil Child stepped forward and said, "Xianggong, what should we do, have we been chasing after the east?"

The White Devil Child let go of his hand, scratched his head, and said, "If they keep going east, we will keep chasing us, and we won't chase them to the East China Sea?"

The Red Devil said: "Yes, if they go to the sea, we will have to chase after them in a boat, Xianggong, will you drive a boat?"

"I won't, and neither will you," said the White Devil, "and I won't swim, and you won't swim, and we'll drown if we fall into the sea." ”

"Oh, what should we do if we drown, Xianggong," the Red Devil Kid covered his face, "I don't want to feed the fish! I fed the fish, and you fed the fish, how can we be together......"

Seeing these two people talking nonsense, Huo Xing'an was amused, he didn't want to entangle with them, so he turned around and left.

"Hey," the White Devil Child said to Huo Xing'an, "If you see that Nie Motian again, or Lou Renmang, tell them that we will settle accounts with them another day!"

Huo Xingan arched his hand back: "Goodbye." "I thought, this person doesn't leave a name, even if he really meets that reckless person, how to tell it, it's really stupid.

Huo Xing'an packed his bags, left the village, and continued south. Originally, he wanted to buy a good horse in the hands of the villagers, but the villagers shook their heads when they saw the fine silver in his hand.

However, on the way, he encountered a group of refugees who had been attacked by mountain bandits, who might have fled the battle between Mengjin and Jin, but unfortunately encountered the mountain bandits. Huo Xing'an was on a slope and saw from a distance that the mountain bandits had robbed and killed the villagers and swept away in the dust. As he approached the dead bodies at the bottom of the hill, a horse wounded by an arrow stood up.

Huo Xingan felt that this horse for the rest of his life was destined for him, so he took it as a mount and gave him an auspicious name "Houfu".
