Chapter 4: Pillar Hold Letter (2)

The figure flashed, and another person snatched out of the crowd and shouted: "Master Pengdong, Chishui Dao Chief, you can rest for the time being, and the old man will come to meet him for a while." ”

Yan Yun looked at it, the man was about forty years old, his face was yellow, as if he had jaundice, but between his eyes opened and closed, his essence was shining, and his hands were unusually wide, showing that he was a fierce opponent.

He was quite scheming, although he was vigilant in his heart, but there was a casual look on his face, leaning on the cliff wall, and said with a leisurely smile: "There is another strong one, Your Excellency's surname?"

The yellow-faced man said "hey", and before he could answer, someone in the crowd whispered: "This is the head of Langzhong's 'Heaven Turning Palm' Wen Zhen Meng Wen, if you know it well, you will obediently tie up your hands, and we may be able to spare your life." It was the "Hundred Flower Gun" Bao Hong who spoke.

Yan Yun stared sideways, only sneering and not speaking. Wen Zhenmeng stepped forward, and said with a slight arch of his hand: "Master Yan, you are happy in your Ganshaan, we are eating in our western Sichuan, and everyone has no trouble with the river water, and they are safe." Why have you been so reckless and reckless in recent days, do you want hundreds of people from all seven sects and eight factions in western Sichuan to drink the northwest wind every day?"

It turned out that more than a year ago, the "Rouge Knife" of the martial arts sect that was originally entrenched in the area of Gansu and Shaanxi appeared in the western Sichuan region many times, looking for gaps and provocations everywhere, not only injuring many disciples in the seven sects and eight factions in western Sichuan, but also plundering many belongings of the fifteen sects, and by the way, taking away more than a dozen young female dependents. The seven sects and eight factions in western Sichuan are all fierce and brave people, and they have long been accustomed to colluding with the government and oppressing their neighbors on weekdays.

A month ago, the seven sects and eight factions learned that Yan Yunzong was going to provoke again in the near future, so they secretly planned to join forces to encircle and suppress the "Rouge Knife". This time, many Jianghu characters rushed to Tangjiabao to participate in the martial arts competition of the Tang Gate, and the good players in the seven sects and eight factions in western Sichuan were also invited to go. The seven sects and eight factions in western Sichuan are all good, and if they can endure such evil spirits, they will do their best in one battle and go all out to encircle and suppress Yanyunzong.

Yan Yun lifted the rouge knife down, raised his head to the sky, and said lightly: "I'd rather be a peace dog than leave people in chaos." Everyone is in troubled times, life is as cheap as grass, after today, I don't know if I can survive tomorrow, but I am just begging for a life on the knife edge. ”

Wen Zhenmeng was stunned and said, "That's what I said." ”

Yan Yunzong rolled his eyes and said, "What about Gan and Shaanxi, what about western Sichuan? When the Jin people and iron horses wantonly trampled on the Central Plains, what could the emperor of the Zhao family do? Don't you swallow your anger? Maybe one day when the gold thief invades the south, can you still draw the ground as a prison and go to reason with the golden dog? Hehe, ridiculous, ridiculous. ”

Wen Zhenmeng's face sank, and he said abruptly: "Everyone is a fellow martial artist, what kind of Jin and Han people are talking about?" Yan Yunzong only sneered and was silent. Wen Zhenmeng suddenly changed color, and shouted: "Langzhou Wen Zhenmeng, ask for advice!" The right palm is in front, the left palm is in the back, and he makes a move to "overwhelm the mountains and seas", and the palms are shot out one after the other, the posture is chic and handsome, and the bearing is mountainous, and the demeanor of everyone is a faction, and Bai Yixue can't help but secretly cheer in his heart.

Yan Yunzong only felt that the wind was blowing in the other party's palm, and his breathing was not smooth, so he didn't dare to slack off at the moment, the rouge knife in his hand flashed red, and he slashed the enemy's wrist, Wen Zhenmeng's wrist flipped, and his right palm drew a circle in front of him, slapping the enemy's abdomen from bottom to top, and his left hand turned his palm into a claw, and his five fingers were like hooks, and he grabbed the crimson blade in the enemy's hand. Yan Yun indulged in his heart: "This old man is so bold that he dares to snatch my blade empty-handed." He didn't wait for the old moves, and with a flick of his right hand, the blade of the rouge knife slashed horizontally into the enemy's palm. Between the lightning and the fire, the two saw the moves, you came and went, and they fought together. In the blink of an eye, the two fought viciously on the mountain road for more than 20 rounds, and it was difficult to distinguish for a while.

Bao Hong, Chishui Daoren, Nangong Shang and others who were watching from the sidelines all held their breath, watched the battle intently, and saw Wen Zhenmeng fighting Yan Yunzong's rouge knife with a pair of fleshy palms, without falling behind at all, and secretly rejoicing in their hearts: "Wen Zhenmeng Lao'er thinks highly of himself on weekdays, and he is very arrogant, and today it seems that he has an amazing art industry in his hands, if it were me at this moment, I am afraid that it would be difficult to resist Yan Yunzong's fast knife, and he would have become a ghost under his knife." ”

When the fight was in full swing, Wen Zhenmeng's left palm "Huh", "Huh", "Huh" clapped three times in a row, one palm was as fast as a palm, the palm wind was everywhere, the strength was strong, and the rouge knife in Yan Yunzong's hand was so shocked that it was difficult to chop. Wen Zhenmeng shouted violently, and his right palm slashed down in the air, which was a move to "sweep the sky and the ground", and suddenly shrouded Yan Yun's whole body in the palm wind, and the fan-like flesh palm was like thunder and lightning, and it slapped to Yan Yun's longitudinal door less than a foot away. If this palm hits him, Yan Yunzong will die of a broken skull.

At the critical moment, everyone only felt a flower in front of them, and the rouge knife in Yan Yunzong's hand flashed red, only to hear Wen Zhenmeng screaming miserably, and the palm of his right hand was actually broken at the wrist! ”

Bai Yixue saw it clearly, when the lightning was shining, the rouge knife in Yan Yunzong's hand suddenly separated, turning into two blades, he moved like a rabbit, the knife was handed over to his left hand, the blade was reversed, and he waved upward, just Wen Zhenmeng's palm slapped violently, and it was as if he took the initiative to welcome him, how sharp the crimson blade was, and immediately cut off the palm of his right hand at the wrist!

It turns out that Yan Yunzong's crimson blade is actually made of two extremely thin and light blade bodies glued together, and the two blades are combined on weekdays, so that the number of single blades is the number of paths. Bai Yixue saw it clearly, frowned slightly, and thought to herself: "Soldier, treacherous." Although the competition is the same as the use of soldiers, and the attention is paid to surprise, but Yan Yun's move is really too insidious and cunning, and he is ruthless, leaving no mercy, and he is really not a good person. ”

Wen Zhenmeng's right palm was slashed, and there was an "oops" sound in pain, Huang Chengcheng's face was completely bloodless, and cold sweat was dripping down from his forehead. He endured the severe pain, without saying a word, his left hand quickly clicked on several acupuncture points on his right arm, and under the stunned gaze of everyone, he rushed down the mountain with his feet, and in the blink of an eye it was only a black shadow.

Yan Yunzong made a successful move, flew up with a kick, and kicked the remnant palm that fell on the mountain road off the cliff with a "snap", raised his hands up, raised his double blades, his mouth was boiling, and he shouted: "Haha, the 'Heaven Turning Palm' has become a 'Falling Palm'! Which of you is not fatal, come to understand the power of Grandpa?"

A group of good players from the seven sects and eight factions in western Sichuan, all of whom are brave and fierce people, but they have never seen such a terrifying and strange scene, all of them are frightened, and the timid ones are even more covetous, I don't know who shouted, hugged their heads and fled, and the rest of the people also fled when they saw this, and they walked away cleanly in an instant.

Yan Yunzong saw that everyone in western Sichuan was holding their heads and running around, and while he was proud, he couldn't help laughing, and the laughter shook the valley and echoed for a long time. He was complacent, and suddenly saw Bai and Shen more than ten zhang away, seeing that the two of them stood still, looking free, but the girl had a sick face, as if she was very sick, she couldn't help but feel slightly surprised, smiled, two cold and lightning-like eyes, looked the two up and down, stretched out their two blades, crossed in front of them, and said coldly: "The two of you still have a teaching?"

Bai Yixue knew that the other party regarded herself as the seven sects and eight factions in western Sichuan, smiled slightly, and arched her hand: "Zai Xia and this girl are just passers-by, how dare you see them?" Yan Yunzong sighed. Bai Yixue said: "But I have a word of persuasion, the so-called master of art, his subordinates must be merciful for three points, and his mouth must be seven points for virtue." Friend Yan, there is a long road ahead, each of them is cherished, please go all the way. ”

Yan Yun saw that although Bai Yixue was young, he was elegant and elegant, Yue Yue Leilei, and he was not an ordinary person in the rivers and lakes, and this last sentence seemed to have a tactful meaning of admonishing himself, he pondered for a moment, "hey", put away his double blades, and bowed his hand and said: "Each is cherished, and there will be a period later." "Turn around and climb up the mountain trail. He was very fast, and suddenly he was already hidden in the deep mountains and dense forests ahead.

Bai Yixue watched Yan Yunzong leave, and sighed: "This person's light skills are so outstanding, and he also makes a quick knife in one hand, and he is a powerful character." ”

Shen Lingshan smiled: "Have you heard the story of 'Falling Reputation Blade'?"

Bai Yixue knew that she had followed Shen Zhong to walk the rivers and lakes since she was a child, and she was well-informed, and she raised her eyebrows and said, "Oh? I haven't heard of it, I want to hear it in detail." The two walked slowly up the hill side by side.

Shen Lingshan said: "I also listened to my father tell this story. At that time, Yan Yunzong had not long since his debut, but he was in his early twenties, and he was a rich and unkind landlord bully in the Ganshan area, so that the local tyrants and inferior gentry talked about him, and they all called him 'Bandit Yan' behind his back. ”

Bai Yixue said: "Shenzhou is swinging, the world is pouring out, these brave people in order to survive, begging for a living on the knife, it is not easy, if one day the official tiger and the wolf are caught, and the trial and conviction are mostly imprisoned, and their lives are difficult to protect." ”

Shen Lingshan said: "Yes." My father said that Yan Yunzong is a rich and unkind person, and his nature is not bad. One year, Yan Yunzong had a knife with the drama thief Sha who was rampant in Longxi, and there was a dispute over the uneven distribution of the spoils. These Jianghu characters have always been strong and competitive, disagreeing, and they draw their swords to see each other, so the two sides agreed to pick a place, fight alone, life and death are fate, the winner gets the property alone, and the loser can no longer be entangled. ”

Bai Yixue smiled: "It's fair to fight alone." ”

Shen Lingshan said: "At that time, Yan Yunzong had just debuted and was not well-known, and Nasha Yidao had already become a famous fast knife player in Longxi. He is as fast as lightning with a knife, and he is ruthless, his surname is Sha, and he kills people and sells goods, and often one knife is enough, so he got the nickname of "Sha Yidao" on the road. ”

Bai Yixue smiled: "This nickname is also very wonderful." ”

Shen Lingshan said: "The two agreed to choose a Gobi duel, and whoever wins will have that share of the property." Both sides are good at fast knives, and when the duel is in full swing, there is a sudden gust of strange wind, and suddenly the sand and rocks are flying, and nothing can be seen, only the sound of the two swords is endless. The wind and sand have not yet dissipated, only to hear the sound of 'click', Yan Yunzong's crimson blade hand rose and fell, and the sand fell to the ground with a knife, falling out of a zhang away. While the people were in shock, the head of the man with a slash swirled on the ground, his eyes widened, and he shouted, 'What a quick knife!'"

Bai Yixue was stunned when she heard this, and muttered: "'Falling Honor Blade', 'Falling Honor Blade'...... How can there be such a fast sword technique in the world?"

Shen Lingshan said: "The legends of the rivers and lakes are difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood, but Yan Yunzong won, but later he did not take away the property he deserved, but sent someone to give all the widows and orphans to Sha Yidao." ”

Bai Yixue sighed: "Although this person is brave, he is also a benevolent and righteous man. ”

The two walked and talked, and at noon, they came down the mountain, and their stomachs were already hungry. Shen Lingshan's body was weak, and he had no carriages and horses, and he had walked a lot of mountain roads, which was barely supported. Fortunately, there is a market town at the foot of the mountain, called Tateba Town, and the two of them found a "Yuxian Building" in the market town and asked for a small pavilion on the second floor to rest.

Yuxianlou was originally a famous restaurant in the Central Plains, since the Zhao Dynasty was safe, Yuxianlou also went south to operate, and set up dozens of chain stores in Jiankang Mansion, Liangzhejiang, Jinghu, Lizhou and other places. Although the chain stores vary in size, the taste is pure, and most of them are thriving. This Yuxian building is one of the best in the town, with a cloud of diners, and there are small pavilions similar to private rooms on the second floor, and each small pavilion has a curtain at the entrance, so that guests can eat and gossip inside.

Bai Yixue ordered a few delicious traditional dishes from Yuxian Building, and while she was waiting for the dishes, she heard someone in the small pavilion next door say loudly: "Blanch another pot of wine!" The voice was familiar, it was the "rouge knife" Yan Yunzong. Bai Yixue and Shen Lingshan glanced at each other and smiled dumbly. In the corridor, a shopkeeper replied in a loud voice: "Yes, guest officer, you wait a while, the wine will come soon." "Footsteps, click, let's go downstairs.

After a while, the sound of footsteps in the stairwell sounded, but it was very hurried and noisy, and more than a dozen people rushed upstairs. Bai Yixue frowned, and said in a low voice: "The friend next door is in trouble again." Sure enough, the footsteps stopped at the door of the small pavilion next door, and a rough voice shouted: "The turtle son is eating and drinking happily inside, hurry up and get out of Lao Tzu." It was the "Zhao Courage Sword" Chishui Dao people who arrived. Yan Yun sat in the small pavilion and didn't say a word. Through a curtain, more than a dozen people stood in the aisle outside the door, gossiping and scolding, but no one dared to step into the small pavilion.

Everyone scolded happily, and suddenly heard Yan Yunzong say coldly: "A group of birdmen are making noise here, disturbing Lao Tzu's Qingxing drinking, those who are afraid of death, hurry up and let Lao Tzu roll away, those who are not afraid of death can come in and die." Although his voice was not high, it overshadowed the scolding of everyone in western Sichuan, word by word, clear to the ear.

The Chishui Daoist shouted: "Xiang Baji, the turtle son should be a turtle with a shrunken head, and he refuses to come out, and the dark green son feeds him!" I had to listen to the sound of "snort", "snort", and "snort" was very strong, and the "eight-armed Yama" Xiang Ninghui instantly sent out more than ten hidden weapons, piercing the cloth curtain and shooting towards Yan Yunzong's small pavilion. However, there was silence in the small pavilion, and the more than ten hidden weapons were like mud cows entering the sea, not to mention that Yan Yunzong couldn't hear the sound of Yan Yunzong moaning in injury, and even the sound of hidden weapons nailed into the tables, chairs, walls, and floors did not come out. Everyone in western Sichuan looked at each other, did not dare to enter, did not want to retreat, and did not know what to do for a while.

The Chishui Dao people were impatient, and they couldn't hold it down at first, and scolded angrily with their halberd fingers: "Turtle son, Lao Tzu pulled you out!" Bai Yixue listened to the sound and argued, and whispered to Shen Lingshan: "This person is going to suffer." Before the words fell, he heard several sounds of "snort" and "snort", and a hidden weapon shot out of the small pavilion, and the shouts of "oops" and "ouch" outside the door were everywhere, and the Chishui Dao people and the three or four people beside him were all hit by the hidden weapon. The Chishui Dao people were the most seriously injured, and blood gushed out from several wounds on his chest, and he fell to the ground, screaming and cursing from his mouth. It turned out that more than ten hidden weapons shot out by Xiang Ninghui, the "eight-armed Yanluo", were all taken by Yan Yunzong with his hand, and they were thrown out again at this moment.

Xiang Ninghui saw that the situation was not good, and shouted: "Yan Bandit is cunning, let's wait for him downstairs." Someone replied, "Yes." Even if he is really a swallow, it will be difficult for him to fly today. "When death is on the verge of death, see how long this guy can be rampant?" "There is a kind of downstairs, when the head is shrunk turtle, what kind of hero is it?" Leaving a few cruel words, the more than ten people were injured and helped, their steps were hurried, and they went downstairs in embarrassment. Calm was restored upstairs for the time being.

Bai Yixue smiled slightly, and whispered to Shen Lingshan: "It's such a fuss, I don't know when we will be able to eat." Suddenly, Yan Yun next door said loudly: "The two friends who are in a hurry next door, we have met again, and we are very fateful." The turtle sons are finally gone, and it's rare to have a moment of quiet, so why not come and drink two cups?"

Bai Yixue and Shen Lingshan looked at each other and smiled. Bai Yixue said with a smile: "Thank you for your kindness, it's just that my friend occasionally feels unwell, so I won't bother him." ”

Yan Yunzong let out an "oh", his voice was slightly disappointed, but he no longer persuaded him. After a while, I suddenly heard him shouting and scolding: "Little Er, Little Er, hurry up and serve wine to Lao Tzu, don't make Lao Tzu anxious, and tear down your store!"

A few of the little runners in the store just saw them fighting, several people were seriously injured, bleeding nonstop, and they were so frightened that they hid in the back hall, at this moment listening to him shouting for wine, he was frightened, but he didn't dare to refuse, one of them was a little bold, plucked up his courage, and quickly picked up the hot wine, and the two trembled, and sent it upstairs.

Yan Yun laughed and said: "The two friends next door to me are still hungry, and they will quickly bring up their wine and food, they are all mine, and you are indispensable for the wine money." The shopkeeper hurried away. Yan Yunzong lifted the wine jug, the whale drank and sucked, and ate and drank alone.
