Bai Yixue was stunned and stunned for a long time before she said: "Why did the predecessors make such a joke? The founding ancestor of our Snow Mountain Sect is the ancestor of Xuanyuan, who doesn't know about the rivers and lakes, and who doesn't know?"

Baili Wanye smiled and said, "You only know one thing, but you don't know the other." At that time, the eldest brother was in front of the palace and commanded the envoys to hold the command of the Japanese army, and there were four capable subordinates under the account. In the officialdom, they have a superior-subordinate relationship with the eldest brother, and in private, the four of them are their proud disciples and are regarded as right-hand men by the eldest brother. In the fourth year of Huizong Xuanhe, the eldest brother was caught in a political battle in the imperial court, and the situation was very dangerous.

One day the traitor came to his house and said, 'Big brother, although you have a good heart and are even more loyal to the court, you cannot withstand the repeated slander of your enemies. Brother, I thought about it carefully, if my eldest brother wants to survive this catastrophe, there is only one way to go. ’

When the eldest brother heard this, he hurriedly asked what the feasible path was. The traitor said, 'The most honest thing about the eldest brother is the so-called faction and selfishness. Since the eldest brother has no facts, why should he bear his false name? In the humble opinion of the younger brother, the four of them can resign from their official posts, give them preferential treatment, and then choose a good place to live in the east, west, north and south. After they each have established a firm foundation, they will echo each other from afar and move when the time comes. Since the eldest brother is exempted from giving the authority to others, and the four of them are also exempt from the crime of implication, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds? As long as the eldest brother has passed the current difficulty, he will choose the opportunity to recall them one by one in the future. ’

After listening to the traitor's sincere words, how could the eldest brother have the slightest suspicion? He thought it was true, and soon after, he sent the four disciples to other places according to the plan, and settled down in the east, west, north, south, and north. ”

When Bai Yixue heard this, she realized something and asked, "Could it be that the four disciples under this eldest brother are the founders of my four major mountain villas?"

Baili said: "Exactly." Therefore, if you study this set of swordsmanship in the "Jinlan Notebook", in fact, you must not turn your back on the master. At that time, the Xuanyuan Patriarch of your Snow Mountain Sect came to the north on the order of this eldest brother and established a sect in the towering Snow Mountain, and the other three people were also ordered to be cautious, respectively, in the east, west, and south to choose the land to live, and successively built the four major mountain villas of Suihan, Shahu, Cangjia, and Fubi, which later became the four villages in the world. It is good to say that Sizhuang is 'a flower divided into four leaves, the same gas and branches', which is good, and it is not false to say that Sizhuang respects the same ancestor. ”

Bai Yixue wondered in her heart: "The Four Great Mountain Villas still have such a relationship, why is the teacher in front of me, but never mentioned it?

Seeing that his face was confused, Baili seemed to be suspicious, smiled slightly, and said: "The eldest brother originally arranged for the four disciples to go to the four places, and he had an explanation before leaving, so it is easy not to reveal his identity, as for when he will return to Kyoto, he will have his own information." Therefore, the origin of the four major mountain villas is also known in the hearts of the four founding patriarchs such as Xuanyuan Kunpeng, and even your master is not necessarily aware of the details. ”

Bai Yixue sighed ashamedly: "I didn't expect that I had been under the Snow Mountain Gate for many years, but I didn't know the name of the ancestor of this sect. Dare to ask the seniors, what is his old man's name?"

Baili said: "He has a single surname of the word 'wind', and he asks 'down' and 'down'." ’

Bai Yixue suddenly remembered something in her heart: there is a pair of middle halls hanging in the guest hall of Suihan Villa, and a middle-aged man with a lofty spirit in the painting, holding three locks of long beard, is reading by candle at night. There is a pair of couplets hung on both sides of the middle hall, the upper one is "to ask where the plum blossoms fall", and the lower one is "the wind blows all night over the mountain". The calligraphy paper is yellow, which shows that it has been a long time, some years.

He once asked Master Hu Wanggui if the characters in this painting were the Patriarch Xuanyuan Kunpeng? Hu Wanggui smiled and said, "No, no, yes!" He asked again, since the painting was not the Patriarch, who was it? Hu Wanggui only said that the calligraphy and painting were made by the Patriarch Xuanyuan Kunpeng himself, but as for who the characters in the painting were, he smiled and did not answer.

Now that he learned that the ancestor of this sect was surnamed "Feng" and his name was "Luo Wen", and then he remembered the couplet in the middle hall of Suihan Villa, which was not embedded with the three words of the name of the ancestor master? ”

Baili Wanran smiled slightly and said, "I can't blame you either." ”

Bai Yixue felt a sour in her heart: "I have only been separated from the master for half a year, and now every time I think of the master, I am very sad and sad, when the ancestor Xuanyuan obeyed the order of the grandfather, came to the vast snow mountain, set up his own door, and thought that for many years, in the towering snow mountain, I don't know how many long snowy nights, Xuanyuan ancestor couldn't sleep all night because of deep thoughts?

He was sighing to himself, and suddenly remembered something again, and said: "Since Master Fengzu set the rules at the beginning, he must not easily reveal his name, is it not without his instructions, Xuanyuan Ancestor and the four of them should not easily leave their respective places." ”

Baili said: "This is natural, but it was not his idea, but he followed the traitor's advice." Do you think that traitor would really have such good intentions? Hehe, this move is actually just an opportunity for him to divide the power of the eldest brother. Do you think, the four major mountain villas, each in a corner, far away from thousands of mountains and rivers, it is difficult to become a climate, even if it is a letter, it will take several months, the so-called echo each other, obey the time, but how easy is it?"

Bai Yixue said: "At that time, Master Feng Ancestor trusted the traitor, how could he have thought that behind him, there was such a bad intention. ”

Baili said: "But what made the traitor unthinkable was that his tricks at the beginning also achieved the four villages in the world that later shocked the rivers and lakes." 'Bihu is cold, the world is four villages, rather take a shot, don't provoke a village', hehe, it's really amazing. When he talked about the four major villas before, he had sneered at the words "wine and wealth", and this time he mentioned it again, the tone was sincere, and there was no half-point contempt and ridicule.

Bai Yixue suddenly realized: "The golden iron horse is raging, the Central Plains has been isolated for many years, and the old man has been unwilling to go south, it turns out that there is an ancestral precept handed down, so that he must not leave the Suihan Villa without authorization, he is obedient to his heart, and he does not dare to disobey the slightest resentment." ”

Baili Duzhi's face became solemn again, and he said slowly: "Having said that, Mr. Feng never expected that he would send the four disciples under him everywhere, hoping that after the rumors, they could still get together, who knew that this parting would become the last farewell between master and apprentice." ”

Bai Yixue exclaimed: "Could it be that Master Zu is ...... He ...... "gloomy in his heart: "Patriarch Xuanyuan set up his own door in the snow mountain, and he was looking forward to returning to the master one day, but he didn't think that the master and apprentice would be separated forever, and it would be difficult to see each other again." ”

Baili said astringently: "Mr. Feng was originally a pure-hearted person with few desires, he was attacked for no reason, and fell into the political struggle of the imperial court, I am afraid that it is not unrelated to the traitor, and then because of his tricks, he has been isolated from the four disciples since then, and it is difficult to see each other again." Hehe, in the year of Jingkang's trouble, if his four disciples were still in Tokyo, then the traitor would dare to set up a Hongmen banquet......? The fate of the third brother's disciple and the right-hand man was even worse than that of the four disciples of Mr. Feng. ”

Bai Yixue couldn't help but beat a spirit, and a chill arose in her heart, only to feel that the traitor was really a ghost, and he couldn't swallow his teeth. The lights flickered on and off in the room, and he stood up, picked up the wick, removed the embers, turned on the oil lamp, and sat down with his knees folded again.

Baili Wanran continued: "This is also the deduction of the two brothers afterwards. During the reign of Huizong Chonghe and Xuanhe, several powerful disciples and generals of the third brother went out to Kyoto on an errand, and they died mysteriously on the road one by one. The third brother also rushed to the place where the incident occurred, but after a secret visit and investigation, he found nothing, only to know that they all died of an extremely powerful poison. ”

Bai Yixue said: "That traitor is good at poisoning, and he must have done it again." ”

Besides, no matter how suspicious the third brother was, he thought about the person who was good at poisoning, and he would never think of the traitor. The third brother's disciples, the capable generals were killed one after another, the matter was abnormal, the third brother was sad and indignant, and he even made a special trip to Tangjiabao for this reason, intending to find out the truth and avenge the disciple. ”

Bai Yixue's heart moved when she heard this, and she thought secretly: "I didn't expect that this senior had also gone to Tangjiabao like me, but I went to ask for medicine, and he went to ask questions." Thinking that he traveled all the way west to Tangjiabao back then, his mood must be as sad as his own, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of sympathy for the same disease, and asked, "May I ask the name of this senior?"

Baili Wanye said: "His surname is Shi, and he is 'gargling' and 'love'." ”

Bai Yixue had never heard of his name, and thought: "Shi Shuqing, Shi Shuqing, this senior is wise and brave, but he is actually a strange man with peerless elegance, and he is also like Master Fengzu, who has disappeared into oblivion." ”

Baili said: "Shi Shuqing arrived at Tangjiabao and met Tang Rong of the Tang Sect. With Tang Rong's mind, how could he easily agree? Shi Shuqing had to pass on several of his unique methods of detoxification, and Tang Rong reluctantly agreed. It's just that Tang Rong listened to Shi Shuqing's description of the deceased's symptoms, and thought that this poison was definitely not the poison of his Tang Sect, but he couldn't understand what kind of poison it was. ”

Bai Yixue said: "Tang Rong is a master of poisoning, and even he can't understand what poison it is, it seems that the traitor's ability to poison is indeed his own family." ”

Baili Wanran nodded and said, "Yes." If you put aside the character, the traitor's many attainments in martial arts are indeed extraordinary, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he has reached the ultimate attainment. ”

Bai Yixue sighed: "The traitor's martial arts are superb, if he can serve the country loyally, he must be the pillar of the country, but he has a bad heart, greedy for glory and wealth, and wants to be a chaotic minister and thief, which is even more harmful to the country and the people." ”

Baili said: "Shi Shuqing returned from Tangjiabao in vain. He had no old enemies in the court, but his disciples and generals were tragically killed one after another, and every time he thought of this, he was unhappy and couldn't understand it. Now that the brothers are turning against each other, they are breaking off their righteousness, and the bloody cases of the past years have only broken through the fog and found the real culprit behind the scenes. ”

Bai Yixue thought about it carefully, and didn't feel that her hairs stood on end, and said: "The traitor is so poisonous, he ...... What's the name?"

A strange light flashed in Baili's eyes, and he said word for word: "Lu Zhongping." ”

Bai Yixue was shocked, and blurted out: "Lu Zhongping, isn't this person the second-generation owner of the Jinting Divine Eagle Workshop?"

It turned out that in order to destroy the Liao and Song Dynasty, Jin Taizong Wanyan Wu begged to buy a wide range of capable warriors from all over the world, and built a new spy agency "Shenying Fang", which not only supervised hundreds of officials in the country, but also served in the Quartet.

The first owner of the Divine Eagle Fang is called Wan Yan Yi Ligu, who is a Jurchen nobleman; the second owner is a Han man, named Lu Zhongping, and Bai Yixue has also heard of him; the third owner is Lu Zhongping's second disciple, he is a group of brothers and sisters, he is both talented, and he is very diligent in his arts, and he is the most true teacher. The fourth owner of the Divine Eagle Workshop, Sa Shituo, is the beloved disciple of this second disciple, and he is also the descendant of Lu Zhongping. Sa Shituo is gifted, has a shocking skills, in the process of the Jin people's expeditions, repeatedly made meritorious achievements, and was named the great teacher of the country by the Jin Emperor, with great power.

Baili Dye nodded slightly, and two fine lights shot out of his eyes, like cold ice scissors, and said coldly: "Exactly, this person has a 'loyalty' in his name, and the word 'Yishan', but he is the most disloyal and unrighteous person in the world." The traitor retreated north with the Jin people, and after arriving in the capital of Jin, he tried his best to curry favor with the new master, and won the trust and respect of the gold owner because of his strong martial arts and ruthless behavior. In just two years, he left the army and replaced the first owner of the aging Condor Workshop and became the new owner. ”

Bai Yixue thought secretly: "Master is now also repeatedly coerced by the Condor Fang, and he has to make compromises, which is really ghostly. ”

Baili Wanye continued: "As the saying goes, 'There is a head for injustice, and there is a master for debt.'" The traitor was so rampant that when Feng and Shi arrived in Shangjing, they knew that he was powerful, so they quietly hid it, just waiting for a good opportunity to break off with the traitor. ”

Bai Yixue said: "I think the two of them are burdened with a deep feud in the sea of blood, and during this period, they are living like years." ”

Baili Wanran nodded, and said: "Unexpectedly, the traitor is very cautious, every time he goes out on business, he returns to the mansion with many Divine Eagle Fang warriors with him, and he is also heavily guarded, even when he sleeps at night, the door is full of guards." ”

Bai Yixue said: "Lu Zhongping is in good conscience, and he is worried about retribution. ”

Baili dyed a "hey" and said, "Not bad." Shi Shuqing is very slight, since he infiltrated Beijing, he has visited the traitor's mansion several times, trying to find an opportunity, stabbing this thief, but it is difficult to have a good opportunity. But once he lurked in the shadows, and when he was waiting for the right time, he heard the traitor crying out in his sleep: 'Big brother, third brother, don't kill me, don't kill me!' 'Big brother, it's not me, it's not me!' After the traitor was awakened by nightmares, the lamp was lit in the house, and until dawn, the faint cry of the traitor came out.

Shi Shuqing crouched in the dark, although his body could not move, but his heart was surging. He curled up in the dark night, and when he heard the traitor's cry in the middle of the night, it was really like his heart was broken, and tears could not help but flow down and wet the placket of his chest. He returned to his residence and talked to his eldest brother about it, and Mr. Feng listened to it and said nothing, and the grief and grief in his heart at that time can be imagined. ”

Bai Yixue said: "The traitor has done so many bad things, and he is in suspense day and night, and he is frightened. ”

Baili said: "Not bad." Because of this, the traitors are careful everywhere, and the two brothers Feng and Shi have been sneaking into Beijing for most of the year, and they have always had a hard time finding good opportunities and can't start. Shi Shuqing originally wanted to steal the "Jinlan Notebook" first, but he didn't know that when the traitor went out, he went into his house to search, but there were no clues. ”

Bai Yixue said: "The traitor must have expected that the eldest brother and the third brother would come to look for him, so he hid the "Jinlan Notebook" in an extremely hidden place. ”

Baili said: "Well, at that time, Feng and Shi thought the same thing, but they thought hard, but they couldn't guess where the traitor hid the "Jinlan Notebook". It wasn't until half a year later that Shi Shuqing saw a hint after long-term and meticulous observation. ”

Bai Yixue said: "Oh, where did he hide the "Jinlan Notebook"?" and secretly thought: "This person is extremely cunning, and the hiding place must be impossible for ordinary people to guess in their lifetime." ”

Baili dyed a "hey" sound, and said: "Since the traitor arrived in Shangjing, he has set up two tombstones in the wilderness in the west of the city, which are engraved with the words 'the tomb of the first brother Fengjun and the tomb of the late brother Shijun', and every fifth day of the first month of the month, he will go to the tomb to pay respects, and he has never stopped.

After the traitor left, Feng and Shi quietly went to the cemetery to visit, and when they saw the tombstone with their names written on it, they couldn't help but be shocked and angry, sad and painful. Why did they choose it on the fifth day of the first lunar month? Feng and Shi didn't think about it at first, but later remembered that the traitors set up a Hongmen banquet in the mansion that day, which was the fifth day of the fourth month of the second year of Jingkang. Presumably after that day, the three brothers broke off their righteousness, and the eldest brother and the third brother, in the hearts of the traitors, they were considered dead.

Feng Luo asked about to kick the tombstone to pieces, but the third brother quickly grabbed him and said, "Big brother, don't do it!"

Fengluo couldn't help but be stunned, and then came back to his senses, when they sneaked into Beijing not long ago, if they kicked and smashed the tombstone, it would undoubtedly be a sign of self-violence. He said miserably: 'Third brother, this traitor has not done anything wrong, although you and I are still alive in the world, we are like walking corpses, what is the difference between them and the dead?'

Shi Shuqing couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this, and said: "It's hard for the second brother to remember the days when the three of us brothers broke off, hehe." ’

On the fifth day of each month, Feng and Shi found that the traitors would go to the cemetery to pay respects, and each time they returned, they would stay for several hours. Feng and Shi only said that he was cozy at first, but it was just to ease the anxiety and uneasiness in his heart, and he didn't think much about it.

Later, Shi Shuqing went to the cemetery in the western suburbs to spy again, and saw that the soil around the cemetery had traces of fresh turning.

Bai Yixue was stunned, and couldn't help but secretly scream in her heart, and blurted out: "It's really a wonderful place to hide, it's up to him to think of it!" ”
