Chapter Twenty-Six: The Fish Intestine Sword

Tang Lei held his mouth, looked at Hou Jin with disdain, and muttered: "Little pervert, you really know how to do things, a grandfather, uncle, uncle, self-cooked." ”

The old man of Tianji looked at Tang Lei again, and said with a smile on his face: "Yo, who is this who made my Lei girl unhappy? Come, come, come, Lei girl, come and sit here. The old man of Tianji pointed to Hou Jin's side again.

Some Tang Sect disciples understood, and hurriedly moved over a mahogany sandalwood chair and placed it next to Hou Jin. Tang Lei still pouted, rolled his eyes, and seemed to reluctantly sit beside Hou Jin.

The old man of Tianji thought about Hou Jin, and said: "Hou Jin, I heard that Lei Yatou said that you are knowledgeable and brilliant, why don't you let everyone see it?" "Actually, Tang Lei often says bad things about Hou Jin in front of the old man of Tianji, either a big pervert or a little pervert, faceless and skinless, flamboyant, he will pick up good words to coax girls, he can speak well with one mouth, and he can speak one by one. But the old man of Tianji noticed that although Tang Lei said that Hou Jin was bad, his eyes were full of energy, and he could make his granddaughter, who was rough and willful on weekdays, and her pungent personality show her daughterly appearance, where did she hate Hou Jin? It was clear that she was interested in the young man, but this girl didn't know it. Presumably, this Hou Jin must also be a knowledgeable young talent, so he made this proposal.

Hou Jin always remembered the master's teachings and was not allowed to show off in front of others, so he humbly excused himself: "That's all Miss Tang Lei's false praise, Hou Jin's knowledge is shallow." Besides, grandpa and uncles are here, and Hou Jin is just a descendant, how dare he make a mistake?"

The old man waved his hand and said softly: "It's okay, it's okay, it's Chinese New Year's Eve today, Hou Jin, you are a guest, the guest is as you please." ”

It's all said about this, if you still refuse, it will be too hypocritical, so I have to bite the bullet and say: "Since grandpa is kind and difficult, the late life has to be respectful rather than obey." Please also ask grandpa to come up with the question. ”

The old man of Tianji looked around, looked at the many Tang Sect disciples who participated in the night banquet in the hall, pondered for a while, and had a flash of inspiration, and said: "Hou Jin, you see, the hall is full of friends, all of them are the new force of my Tang Sect, why don't you use this as a topic, you can write a couplet, how about it?" and then shouted: "Take the four treasures of the study." ”

After a while, a disciple of the Tang Sect sank the pen, ink and paper, and Tang's father spread out a pair of bright red wordless couplet paper and handed over the best red red pen.

Hou Jin took the pen and said, "Don't dare to bother your uncle." Thinking about the words of the old man Tianji in his heart: "Tangmen, Shuzhong, in the hall, there are full seats, there are." ”

Hou Jin had a flash of inspiration, picked up the pen and wrote urgently, and after a while, eighteen big characters appeared on the paper. But see the upper link: the door inside the door is outside the world, and the bottom link: Tang Zi and Tang Sun are all over Shu Mountain. Horizontal batch: thriving. Seeing that Hou Jin was doing something, Tang Qiang and several other Tang juniors came forward one after another to see Hou Jin's demeanor. Even Tang Lei, who was a fierce man, sat quietly at this time, looking at Hou Jin's masterpiece with complicated eyes.

The old man of Tianji picked up a couplet written by Hou Jin and said: "I miss my Tang Gate, located in Shuzhong, and has been standing for hundreds of years. rarely has anything to do with people in the rivers and lakes, but the people of the Tang Sect have never dared to despise the people of the Tang Sect, who walk the world. My Tang Sect also disdains to be in the company of evil demons, and the national righteousness is unintentional to my Tang Sect, although I am accustomed to using poison and hidden weapons, acting strangely in the eyes of outsiders, and being secretly called an evil sect by the world, but I have never taken the initiative to harm others. Now, Shuzhong has become the self-reserved place of my Tang Sect, passed down from generation to generation, and there is no dispute with the rivers and lakes. Well, thriving. This couplet also hides hidden poems, Tang Gate, good, wonderful, and appropriate. Hou Jin, as Lei Yatou said, has quick thinking, outstanding literary talent, and good words, scolding Fang Xuan, vigorous and powerful, like a chivalrous man with superb swordsmanship, people are like his words. Not bad. It just so happens that I have a sword in the Tang Sect that I can give to you. Take the fish intestine sword. ”

The fish intestine sword, also known as the fish hidden sword, is rumored to be made by the sword master Ou Yezi for the king of Yue, he used the tin of Chijin Mountain, and the copper of Ruoye Creek, which was smelted by rain and lightning to obtain the essence of heaven and earth. The sword is slender and flexible, able to be inserted along the mouth of the fish, zigzag and bend in the stomach and intestines of the fish, and when withdrawn, it returns to its original shape. Ou Yezi asked the sword master Xue Candle to come to the sword, and Xue Candle concluded that this sword was born against reason and order, and was dedicated to killing the king and killing his father. Later, it came true. It is rumored that Wu Wangyi was assassinated, and the sharp blade used was the fish intestine sword, which was a sword of absolute bravery. Later, the fish intestine sword fell into the people, and it was in the hands of many people, and finally there was no trace of it, but it was hidden in the Tang Gate.

After a while, the Tang Sect disciple presented a sword with a dark purple body, a small sword body, and a pattern like fish scales, which was only slightly longer than a dagger. Although thousands of years have passed, after the baptism of the years, the fish intestine sword is still shining, not reducing the year, it looks extremely sharp, and it is really an immortal treasure.

The old man of Tianji picked up the fish intestine sword, waved it lightly, and with a buzz, the corner of the table made of fine mahogany broke open and fell to the ground. Everyone here gasped, the fish intestine sword was really as rumored, sharpening iron like clay. Although the fish intestine sword fell in the Tang Sect, because it was a peerless brave sword, it had been hidden deep in the hidden arsenal of the Tang Sect, and even ordinary Tang Sect disciples had never seen the true face of this sword. Then, the old man of Tianji handed the sword to Hou Jin and motioned for Hou Jin to accept it. In fact, the old man of Tianji is also selfish, and he is very optimistic about him when he learns that Hou Jin is the descendant of the Sword Saint, with extraordinary talent and immeasurable achievements in the future. I want to give the fish intestine sword to Hou Jin first, and after some time, pick a suitable time to match my granddaughter Tang Lei to him, so that Hou Jin will become the aunt of the Tang Sect, and he will have something to do with the Tang Sect, and he will be regarded as a member of the Tang Sect. used a sword and a beautiful woman to basket a young handsome man, and he was a good wishful thinking.

Hou Jin had also seen the record of the fish intestine sword in the book before, and today he was fortunate enough to see the style of the sword, and he couldn't help but praise: "A good sword, it is really a brave sword, it is clear at a glance." Seeing that the old man of Tianji gave such a valuable thing to himself, as the so-called, he did not receive merit, so he excused himself and said: "Grandpa, since the fish intestine sword is the treasure of the Tang Sect, how can he be virtuous in his later life? How can he win people's love?" What swordsman in the world doesn't like such a famous sword?

The old man of Tianji said: "Eh, the so-called sword is given to heroes. Hou Jin, the old man knows that your martial arts are good, especially your swordsmanship, and this fish intestine sword is just right for you. Take it. With that, he handed the fish intestine sword to Hou Jin.

Hou Jin saw that the old man Tianji had a sincere attitude, not like a fake, and thanked him again and again, and was about to take the fish intestine sword, but one person stopped him and said, "Grandpa, slow down." The Fish Intestine Sword is a treasure of my Tang Sect, passed down from generation to generation, how can it be easily awarded to others?" Hou Jin followed the prestige, and the person who stopped him was Tang Qiang, Tang Lei's eldest brother.

Tang Lei's third uncle was already unpleasant to Hou Jin, and at this time he also interjected: "Yes, what Qiang'er said is right. The fish intestine sword is a treasure from my Tang family, and my father cannot pass it on to outsiders. ”

Father Tang said: "Hou Jin can also become a member of my Tang Sect." "The old man Tianji told Tang's father about Hou Jin's origin, and Tang's father also secretly observed Hou Jin for a period of time, although Hou Jin often likes to tease Tang Lei, but his words are light, but he is still very well-behaved and has a good character, so he also likes Hou Jin, and the baby daughter seems to be interested in Hou Jin, and has the intention of matching the two.

Third Uncle Tang and the other Tang disciples were all stunned when they heard this, and the second monk was puzzled by the cold words of the family master, and they were very puzzled. Father Tang walked up to Uncle Tang and whispered a few words in his ear, and Uncle Tang suddenly said in a low voice: "I see, it seems that the third brother looks down on him." If so, the third child has no opinion. ”

I don't know what Tang's father said to the third uncle, and the third uncle no longer objected, Tang Qiang was quite unconvinced, and said in his heart: "The fish intestine sword is a treasure of the Tang Sect, on weekdays, grandpa is reluctant to take it out to me, but today he wants to give it to this kid, why?" So he still objected: "No, I just don't agree anyway." ”

The old man of Tianji frowned, on weekdays, his eldest son doted on this eldest grandson too much, and he had developed a brutal and domineering character, but after all, he was his own grandson, the descendant of the Tang Sect, so he said patiently: "Then, Qiang'er, you have to talk about it, how can you agree?"

When Tang Qiang heard this, he was in the middle of it. Men are also jealous, seeing that Hou Jin is handsome, has a sweet mouth, and is very good at winning people's hearts, he just made a couplet, out of the limelight, and knew that he was not as good as Hou Jin in terms of learning, so he wanted to suppress this kid's arrogance in martial arts, let him be ugly in the crowd, and teach this boy a good lesson, so he said: "Unless, he can beat me." ”

The old man of Tianji and Father Tang also wanted to study Hou Jin's martial arts, see Hou Jin's strength, and get a bit of the true inheritance of the Sword Saint, so he said to Hou Jin: "Hou Jin, Qiang'er intends to learn a thing or two from you, what do you think?"

Hou Jin saw the domineering of this invincible son, knew his intentions, and said humbly out of politeness: "Hou Jin is shallow in learning and low in martial arts, how can he be Tang Gongzi's opponent?"

Tang Qiang laughed and said, "You still have self-knowledge." Since this is the case, then you are not worthy of having our Tang Sect Zhibao Fish Intestine Sword. Also ask grandpa to take back the sword. An outsider, still want to covet the fish intestine sword?"

is a clay man with a three-point temper, Tang Qiang repeatedly made things difficult for Hou Jin, and he was also a little annoyed in his heart, and said: "Don't worry, Tang Gongzi, Hou Jin hasn't finished speaking." ”

Tang Qiang said impatiently: "If you have something to say, you can talk about it quickly, and if you have a fart, you can't talk about it like this." ”

Father Tang drank: "Eh, Qiang'er, don't be rude." Listen to Hou Jin finish speaking. Motioned for Hou Jin to continue. Tang Qiang was stunned, unimpressed, and squinted at Hou Jin.

Hou Jin continued: "I just said that I didn't dare to be hostile to Tang Gongzi, but Hou Jin still wanted to give Gongzi a lesson or two. I hope to give you advice. ”

Tang Qiang was about to accept it, but in the oblique stab, a young man from the side table stepped forward and said loudly: "Kill chickens with a knife, don't use the eldest brother's hands, the younger brother will do it for you, if you are not defeated, it is not too late for the eldest brother to try again." What does Hou Gongzi think?"

Hou Jin looked at this young man, but seeing that his appearance was somewhat similar to Uncle Tang San, he guessed that it must be Uncle Tang San's nephew.

Without waiting for Hou Jin to ask, the young man defended his home: "I am Tang Jun, the son of their third master, and I want to ask Hou Gongzi for advice." What do you think?"

Hou Jinxin said: "It seems that hands-on martial arts competitions are inevitable, and it is just to show a little strength, so as not to be looked down upon." Ying Cheng said: "Tang Jungongzi's words are in line with Hou Jin's meaning." Please!"

Some Tang Sect disciples had already temporarily removed some tables, chairs and benches to make room for them.

Hou Jin and Tang Jun walked to the center of the empty space and looked at each other.

Although Tang Jun is the same as Tang Qiang, he has a domineering temperament, but his mind is quite right. Seeing that Hou Jin was empty-handed, he didn't want to win, so he said loudly: "Dare to ask Hou Gongzi, what kind of blade do you use?"

Hou Jin originally had the Kaiyang Sword given by his master, but he was taken away by Huang Cheng, and he lost his hand, so he arched his hand slightly, and said: "Xie Tangjun Gongzi is kind, Hou Jin is good at using the sword." ”

Tang Jun ordered someone to take the sword and give it to Hou Jin, and Hou Jin waved it a few times, although it was not as good as the Kaiyang sword, but it was barely okay. The two of them bowed their hands to each other politely, and then began to fight.

Tang Jun couldn't bear it, and took the lead in waving the blade in his hand, and with an arrow step, he rushed towards Hou Jin. Speaking of which, Tang Jun's weapon is also chic, it turned out to be a folding fan. But don't underestimate this folding fan, this fan is no different from the material used in the blade of Liu Jingwen, the former master of the Dexin Hall of the Tianshan Sect, and it is also made of the top of Kunlun, a vein, taken from platinum ore, smelted with black iron the year before, weighing nearly fifty years, and covered with fine silk satin on the outside. But unlike Liu Jingwen's folding fan, this fan has a hidden mechanism, as long as you gently pull the button at the handle of the fan, you can remove the outer layer of covered silk, touch the unique secret secret weapon of the Tang Sect, the rainstorm pear flower needle, can fire ten pear flower needles in a single continuous manner, the principle and Zhuge crossbow have the same effect, the power is amazing, as long as one hits the enemy, it can make the enemy bleed and lose combat effectiveness. The rainstorm pear flower needle is made of ore from the bottom of the clear water and cold pool, which is extremely precious and rare, and often has to be recycled after use. And the rainstorm pear flower needle also extracts the meridian poisonous sand, the meridian poisonous sand is a kind of poison secretly made by the Tang Sect, which is extracted from the saliva of the king cobra and the venom of the ice toad of the Tianshan Mountains, and then added to the broken intestines of Miao Jiang, after 7749 days of fermentation. Meridian poison sand is extremely poisonous, as long as a small drop of the damaged epidermis of the human body is stained, the toxicity can invade every corner of the human body with the blood. A person who practices martial arts, no matter how high his martial arts are or how deep his internal strength is, he can't suppress it. Those who are poisoned by this poison are imprisoned in the whole body, and the more they exercise, the faster the onset of toxicity. At noon, the poisoned person will have unbearable pain all over his body, especially if he scrapes the bones to cure the poison, and finally when he is young, he will bleed and die in pain. It is a life-saving means given to the people by the masters of the Tang Sect in the past dynasties, and it must not be used in vain unless it is absolutely necessary.

Although Tang Jun is arrogant, his martial arts are not weak, and he is a good hand. But seeing that Tang Jun's steps were light and extremely agile, although the folding fan was heavy, it was also waved by Tang Jun. Hou Jin could see it clearly, perhaps, there was a secret hidden in Tang Jun's blade, which was unexpected. Hou Jin didn't dare to be careless, the tip of the sword pointed obliquely at the ground, squinted his eyes, and stared closely at the folding fan in Tang Jun's hand to brake quietly. When Tang Jun poked over, Hou Jin moved, and a sword swung out, and the sword body just blocked the sound of the folding fan that was poking over quickly.

"Sure enough, the folding fan is weird, the blade of the Tang Gate is not so simple, it is estimated that this fan is similar to Uncle Liu's blade. Hou Jin said in his heart.

Tang Jun saw that he didn't succeed in a single blow, and his empty hand was clenched into a fist, and he carried the Xuantian Wuji Gong, the unique internal strength of the Tang Sect, and smashed it into Hou Jin's shoulder with a punch. Wherever the fist passed, the space was slightly distorted, and it could be seen that it was very powerful. If you are hit by this punch, you will either be killed or injured. Hou Jin was not in a hurry, but also clenched his hands into a fist, the five elements of yin and yang were gathered on the fist, galloping, the last came first, much faster than Tang Jun, the two fists collided, there was a muffled sound, the two immediately separated, Hou Jin did not move, Tang Jun retreated a full five steps before stopping. This time the judgment was made, and Hou Jin's internal strength was even better.

Tang Jun was slightly startled, and said in his heart: "I didn't expect this kid to look at a bookish look, he is so powerful, and his movements are much faster than mine." It's just that the skills are not as good as others, admitting defeat is, and you have to work harder in the future. So he put away the folding fan, his attitude was much more polite than before, and said: "Hou Gongzi has superb martial arts, and he is ashamed of himself." Let's stop it. In the future, when a certain person is refined, he will compete with Hou Gongzi. ”

Hou Jin also began to appreciate this Tang Jun son at this time, although his personality was a little obedient, but he was also quite straightforward and straightforward. So he also put away his sword and said, "Brother Tang Jun, I have conceded." ”

The other young generations of the Tang Sect were all surprised, although Tang Jun's martial arts were not the strongest among the young disciples, they were not weak, and they didn't want to admit defeat and stop fighting with just one move. But then I was relieved, master competitions, often one move to determine the winner.

Even Tang Qiang, who has always been arrogant, had to start facing up to Hou Jin's strength in the face of the strength shown by Fang Cai Hou Jin, it seems that this kid is by no means an idle person, but he was quite dissatisfied with Tang Jun's performance, and said in his heart: "What the hell is Tang Jun doing with this guy, he will admit it with one move?" Tang Qiang is also quite confident in his martial arts cultivation, even if he can't win, he won't be like Tang Jun, who will be defeated with one move.

Tang Qiang got up, made a beautiful front flip, and stood firmly opposite Hou Jin, staring at the other party. Old Man Tianji and Father Tang nodded slightly. Although Tang Qiang is a little impatient, he is a descendant of the Tang family after all, and his martial arts have some attainments, and he seems to have improved slightly.

Hou Jin arched his hand and said, "Brother Tang, please give me a lot of advice." ”

Tang Qiang seemed impatient, and said: "It's almost a little less, I, Tang Qiang, don't eat this set." Without further ado, come on. ”

After that, Tang Qiang was unceremonious, a Mitsubishi knife in his hand flipped out, waved it, and took Hou Jin into the chest, and the other hand, sometimes becoming a sword finger, sometimes changing palms, sometimes clenching fists, virtual and real, varied.

Hou Jin took all of these into his eyes, and at a glance, he knew that this Tang Qiang was not the talented Tang Jun, he was much more powerful. Hou Jin also took it seriously and didn't dare to be distracted. A swift wind step, greeted it, and blocked Tang Qiang's Mitsubishi knife with a sword, but the barb of the Mitsubishi knife was the sword of Hou Jin, and he couldn't get out for a while. At this moment, Tang Qiang's constantly changing hand turned into a hand knife and quickly slashed at Hou Jin's shoulder. Hou Jin stretched out an arm to block the hand knife, and there was a muffled bang, but Tang Qiang's hand knife stopped moving forward and could not sink any further. But Hou Jin couldn't stand it well, a force of a backshock, and he only felt a soreness in his arm. The two of them were in a stalemate like this, fighting with internal strength, unlike Tang Jun who retreated with one blow. For a while, the two were evenly matched, and they couldn't tell the winner......
