Chapter 66

Lu Chuan and the two walked back along the Jialin River, and since the waterway could not be walked, they could only take the dry road.

On the way, Lu Chuan asked, "Fifth brother, I said that the exercises of the Crane Gong are not on me, do you believe it?"

"I believe it. Ye Wuxia didn't even think about it.

"Why?"

"Because we're brothers. ”

"Then if you are Long Shengjing, do you believe it?"

"I also believe that what Long Shengjing said is right, there is no need for a person who is not afraid of death to lie. ”

"But...... I'm just lying. ”

Lu Chuan said and took out the book from the place where the meat was attached to his arms, and shook it in front of Ye Wuxia's eyes.

"Why?" Ye Wuxia was obviously a little incomprehensible.

Lu Chuan smiled slightly: "I'm not a person who is not afraid of death, and there are so many things I miss, I can say that I am very afraid of death." ”

"Then why do you work so hard when you fight people?"

"Because I know that they are as afraid of death as I am, so I am not afraid that I will actually die. Moreover, if you look closely at my moves, I have never exchanged my life for my life, but for my injuries. The competition is to win, what is the difference between one life and one life?"

"So that's your biggest flaw. ”

"Yes, that's my biggest flaw. Because of this, I will never be able to become a cloud swordsman in my life, nor can I become a Northern Devil. ”

"I think Yao Gong is the first master of decency, and Lu is the first master of the evil faction, you are both good and evil. ”

"No, my uncle is not the purest chivalry in people's imagination, he is not a god, he also has selfish desires, feelings, family, weaknesses, and weaknesses. He was a living person, so he entered the court and wrote "The Record of Filial Piety and Swordsmanship", and finally died an unknown ...... But he is my God. ”

Lu Chuan paused, suppressed his overly excited emotions, and continued: "My grandfather is not a real evil sect, his concept is actually very simple, but the means of killing and killing will be a little difficult for people to accept. ”

"Are you worried about how to join forces with the various factions in the rivers and lakes?"

"I don't have the peerless martial arts of the two elders, nor do I have their bravery. ”

"In fact, with your current skills, you are already top-notch among our younger generation, and you will be able to shock the martial arts like the two predecessors during the holidays. ”

"I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for that day. ”

"Why?"

Lu Chuan smiled but did not answer.

The two returned to the inn where they sent horses, rested for the night, got up early the next morning, and went to Langzhou as soon as possible, and arrived in Langzhou that night.

I ate a bowl of noodles at a roadside stall, and asked the vendor about the way to the Huanhou Temple, and I arrived at the river in a short time.

Tie the horse and enter the Huanhou Temple side by side.

As soon as the two of them entered the gate, suddenly the lamps and torches in the courtyard were lit, and they shone as if it were day, and extended to the apse.

A man dressed in a Tang Sect costume blocked the way of the two with a horizontal knife.

Lu Chuan frowned, "In Xia Lu Chuan, I was invited to meet Tang Guanlan and Tang seniors." ”

When the man heard this, he turned around and ran back, stood at the end of the light path, and shouted loudly: "Please enter the hall of Lu Shaoxia!"

Before the words fell, the disciples of the Tang Sect on both sides of the uproar set up a knife path.

This thing is a common means of demonstrations in the rivers and lakes, to let the guests go under the knife, if the other party does not want to kill you, the knife will not fall, but if the host has murderous intentions, an order, it is ten thousand blades!

Although it is usually a demonstration to test courage, but there are some bullies, how can Lu Chuan stand this?

Ye Wuxia asked in a low voice, "Shall we go or not?"

Lu Chuan sneered slightly, took two steps forward and stabbed a sword into a person's chest, pulled out his sword and killed another person with a backhand.

The path of the sword was suddenly chaotic, and the disciples of the Tang Sect in front of them raised their knives to kill the two, and the two of them were not stagnant, and their swords went down together, killing all the way to the apse.

Where could these ordinary disciples withstand these two killings, and after a short time, they arrived at the door of the apse, and their bodies lay on the ground.

Lu Chuan glared at Tang Guanlan on the steps and said, "Since you want to do it, why don't you invite some masters and put some grass to do here?"

Tang Guanlan was not in a hurry, nor did he answer, but stretched out a hand.

Lu Chuan didn't even think about it, and sent his veins over.

Ye Wuxia was shocked, it was too late to stop him.

But why did he say Lu Chuan? In fact, it was very simple, he believed in his eyes, and from the first glance, he felt that Tang Guanlan was not a bad person, at least not a villain. Because of this, although he was very dissatisfied with Tang Guanlan's hospitality, he finally chose to believe it.

Sure enough, Tang Guanlan's finger lightly rested on Lu Chuan's wrist, and the old man closed his eyes for a moment and muttered, "Not optimistic, not optimistic." Lu Shaoxia, let's talk about it in the palace. ”

Lu Chuan said: "This is my fifth brother, seniors don't have to shy away from it." ”

The old man nodded, and the three of them entered the hall together, and the guests and hosts were seated, and there were little boys serving tea.

Lu Chuan took a sip, it was clear tea, Chong Ye Wuxia nodded slightly, put down the teacup, and asked, "I don't know why the seniors invited the juniors to come?"

The old man said with a smile: "Say goodbye to Chaotianling, the old man has not missed the traces of the young man, how do you feel all the way?"

"It's thrilling. This is the first time I have seen the real rivers and lakes. Although the rivers and lakes outside the gate are much more chaotic than those inside the gate, they are far less dangerous. ”

The old man nodded and said: "Of course, firstly, the customs of the people outside the customs are simple, the people are more straightforward, what is is what is, and there are not as many thoughts as the people in the Guannei; second, most of the people who come and go outside the Guan, most of them have fled from the Guannei, those people, their ambitions have long been lost, and they are bent on avoiding disasters and surviving, who will have so many things? But the old man didn't ask this, Lu Shaoxia didn't think ...... Although the old man and Grandfather Ling are about the same era as Grandfather Ling, I have been studying poison in the door when I was young, and I have never taken half a step down the mountain, so I don't know much about Grandfather's affairs, let alone see that you are invincible to all kinds of poisons, it turns out that you are a furious dragon killer in the Mighty Martial Arts. ”

"Of course I know it's not the seniors, but the seniors aren't asking about this, are they asking about the scenery on the road?"

The old man smiled: "Of course not, I'm asking about your body, your heart." Just now, I set up the knife to deliberately make you angry, and I want to see what your pulse looks like after using the Rage Dragon Slayer. ”

"I see, it seems that I misunderstood my predecessors. My body is much better than before, not as uncomfortable as it was at the beginning. ”

"Really, there are no outsiders here, you said you don't need to avoid your fifth brother, why are you a little secretive about medical treatment?"

Hearing this, Ye Wuxia was a little anxious, and hurriedly asked, "Sixth brother, what's wrong with your body?" I heard the second brother say that you often show signs of going mad, what the hell is going on?"

Lu Chuan smiled slightly and said, "It's really nothing, it's good to get used to this thing." ”

The old man twisted his beard in his hand, half-squinted his eyes and said, "No, it's good to get used to the injury?"

"Senior, don't scare my fifth brother, my pulse and so on are just caused by exercises, not injuries. ”

The old man snorted and said, "Are you an expert or am I an expert?" ”

Ye Wuxia glared at Lu Chuan, knelt on the ground and said, "What is my sixth brother's illness? ”

Lu Chuan saw that the fifth brother was begging for himself, and he couldn't wait to go up and give the old man an old fist, and only after half the weather did he say hatefully: "My exercises, all the true power needs to go through the heart, go with the qi and blood, it will inevitably have some impact on the heart after a long time, and there will be some heart palpitations after the luck, which is not a big deal." ”

The old man still asked reluctantly, "Is it just a palpitation?"

Lu Chuan gritted his teeth and glared at the old man fiercely, and said angrily: "Occasionally, there is still some pain, but it rarely appears." ”

The old man didn't force Lu Chuan's sharp eyes at all, stared at his eyes tightly and said, "If you don't say it well, I'll say it for you." ”

"You ......"

As soon as Lu Chuan spoke, Ye Wuxia slapped him on the back of the head with his backhand, and said angrily: "Listen to your seniors." ”

If it were someone else, Lu Chuan would have to raise his sword and cut him if he gave Lu Chuan such a blow, but Ye Nanyun was a brother, not to mention slapping him, even if he slapped him, he had to be next to each other.

Lu Chuan glared at the old man fiercely, lowered his head and stopped talking.

The old man was secretly amused, ignored Lu Chuan's eyes, and said to himself: "The last time I saw you, your heart was better than now, it should only be a little palpitations, loss of appetite, and difficulty fidgeting." But after that, the number and frequency of your exercises increased, and now your heart is not as good as before, and the palpitations are getting longer and longer, and occasionally it hurts, and you can't even breathe up when it hurts. If this happens when you are fighting with someone, you know the consequences. If this continues......"

Lu Chuan interrupted him and said, "When I exercise, I will seal the veins and close the acupoints, and there will be no problems with all kinds of poisons." ”

"Don't talk!" Ye Wuxia roared, "Senior, you go on." ”

"If this continues, the existing symptoms will become more and more intense, and there will be tremors, the heart will tremble, the body will tremble, even the hand holding the sword will tremble. Suffering from illness every day, you can't eat, and slowly, your body will run out of oil, and it will be worse than ordinary people. Ten years at most, and you'll be dead. ”

"Impossible, I have the most authentic Taoist internal strength body, and it will definitely not develop into what you said. ”

"I would have already counted this in, if there is no Wudang internal strength to protect the body, you won't be able to live in five years. ”

Lu Chuan just wanted to refute, but suddenly heard a "bang" beside him, Ye Wuxia fell to the ground, and said astringently: "Ask the seniors to save my sixth brother." ”

Lu Chuan's tears welled up at that time, sealing his throat, and he couldn't say a word.

I only heard the old man say: "If you don't use a rage to kill the dragon from now on, don't get close to women, don't drink, don't want to worry about things, meditate and recuperate, it won't take a few years to recover, and it will not be a problem to live to the age of the old man." ”

"I still have a big revenge to avenge, and I can't do it without killing the dragon hand in a rage. ”

"Yao Gong will not kill the dragon hand in a rage, he is still the best in the world!"

"But I don't have the talent of my uncle, and by the time I practice martial arts and kung fu to the point where I can take revenge, those people will already be dead!"

"Isn't there still our younger brother Yao Wang?"

"Fifth brother, you asked me to throw a burden that I can't even afford to a five or six-year-old child?"

"And me, a few of us who are elder brothers can avenge you, eldest brother, eldest brother's martial arts are unfathomable, and he will definitely be able to avenge you. ”

"Our brothers, anything can be replaced, but this matter, no one can do it for me, I must avenge it with my own hands. Didn't Senior Tang say it, I still have ten years, and I will take revenge within ten years......"

"How about revenge, will my brothers give you a funeral?"

"It's never too late for me to cultivate. ”

"Don't tell me this, I'll take you back to the mountain right now, and if you have anything to say to your eldest brother. ”

Ye Wuxia said and went to pull Lu Chuan's arm, but he didn't pull it, he couldn't help but have a little anger on his face, and then looked at Lu Chuan, and put the Zixiao Silver Moon Sword across his neck, the sword edge was too sharp, and a bloodshot had been drawn, with tears in his eyes, he looked at him and said sadly: "Fifth brother, are you going to force me to death?"

Ye Wuxia's body was shocked, and he stomped his feet and turned around and ran out.

Looking at Ye Nanyun's back, Lu Chuan's sword hung down weakly, and he said lightly in the face of Tang Guanlan: "Thank you seniors for treating me sick, if there is nothing to do, the juniors will leave first." ”

"Do you think I'm talking too much?"

"No, I know that the seniors are telling the truth, and they have to know after all, there is no difference between morning and evening. ”

"Although we count this time, it is only two sides, but I can see clearly what kind of person you are, I expected that you would not do what I said, so ......" the old man said and took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, held it in the palm of his hand, and continued: "You take this medicine, when your heart hurts, you can take one pill when the trembling is uncontrollable, but not too much, you must not be diligent, this is poison." ”

Lu Chuan took the medicine bottle and said with a smile: "Then the junior is not welcome, the seniors are very kind, and the juniors will repay it in the future." ”

"No need in the future, the old man has something to ask you. ”

"Oh?" Lu Chuan sat down again and asked, "I don't know what the senior commanded?"

"The old man begs you to save the Tang Gate. ”

"What happened to the Tang Gate?"

"Something big happened to the Tang Gate......

It turned out that at the end of last year, Liu Jin listened to Zhang Cai's words, released Hangul, reinstated Li Dongyang, rehabilitated Yao Qi, and temporarily calmed down the public anger inside and outside the court. But he didn't intend to stop there, and he never thought of compromising with someone who didn't listen to him.

On March 28 this year, Liu Jin and Liu Jian, Xie Qian, Shangshu Hanwen, Yang Shousui, Lin Han, Zhang Shihua, Li Mengyang, Wang Shouren, Wang Lun, Sun Pan, and Huang Zhao, reviewed Liu Rui, and gave Tang Lijing, Chen Ting, Xu Yu, Tao Hui, Liu Xuan, Ai Hong, Lu Xian, Ren Hui, Li Guanghan, Dai Miao, Xu Fan, Mu Xiang, Xu Xian, Zhang Liangbi, Ge Song, Zhao Shixian, Yu Shi Chen Lin, Gong Anfu, Shi Liangzuo, Cao Min, Wang Hong, Ren Nuo, Li Xi, Wang Fan, Ge Huan, Lu Kun, Zhang Mingfeng, Xiao Qianyuan, Yao Xueli, Huang Zhaodao, Jiang Qin, Bo Yanhui, Pan Bo, Wang Liangchen, Zhao You, He Tianqu, Xu Jue, Yang Zhang, Xiong Zhuo, Zhu Tingsheng, Liu Yu and other 53 people were traitors, and the court was exemplified, and the ministers knelt in the south of Jinshui Bridge, and Liu Jin proclaimed the precepts with Honglu. He also ordered the six departments to enter and exit again, so that the hundred officials could not rest. There are those who are unwilling to be humiliated, and they die on the bridge pillars, and those who swallow their anger and reluctantly go home and fall ill.

At the same time, Liu Jin integrated the Jianghu forces of Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling's brothers, and cooperated with the factory guard to begin to annex the Jianghu sect. On the first day of the fourth month, when the fifteenth day of the Tang Sect opened the furnace to refine medicine, a group of scum broke into the mountain, led by nine young people. These nine young people had extremely high martial arts, defeated all the masters of the Tang Sect, and forced the head of the Tang Sect, Qiong Lou Yulu Peony Tian, Mrs. Tang to give in to Liu Jin, and Mrs. Tang was outnumbered and fled with injuries. Some of the ten elders had already taken refuge in Liu Jin, and took the opportunity to usurp the position of the head of the house, Tang Guanlan pretended to give in, took the opportunity to escape from the Tang Gate, moved troops everywhere for help, and begged until the gate. happened to meet Lenglongling's westward expedition to Zhujia Mountain, Tang Guanlan went to Chaotianling, and wanted to use his own poisonous skills to relieve the siege of Zhujia Mountain, so as to borrow troops in exchange for personal favors, but he didn't expect that his skills were not as good as others, and he was folded in the hands of the three heroes Qu Shili. After returning from the Zhu family's mountain, he was arrested by the Tang Sect as soon as he arrived in Shu, but after all, he was also one of the ten elders, and there were not a few disciples and grandchildren, and he had some prestige. Tang Guanlan also knew that he didn't have the ability to turn the tide, so fortunately he researched the medicine to treat Luchuan's heart injury.

After hearing this, Lu Chuan looked at Tang Guanlan with a smile and said: "What a trick to kill people with a knife, I have to count how much medicine is in this small porcelain bottle, and then count how many corpses are outside, if there is less medicine, we have to worry about the transaction between the two of us." ”

The old man smiled: "Aren't those people like chopping melons and vegetables to Lu Shaoxia?"

"When you die, you have to make it clear when you see Lord Yama that this life debt will be counted on your head. ”

"It's easy to say, it's okay to count all the people you killed on my head, anyway, it's a matter of that life, and it has nothing to do with this life. ”

Lu Chuan, such an unserious old man, couldn't help it, and suddenly he seemed to think of something, so he asked: "Old man, I'll ask you about personal ......" As he spoke, he told him about meeting the little girl from the Tang Sect on the boat.

Tang Guanlan groaned: "Listening to what you say, it seems to be Ke'er, this girl, what's the matter, Lu Shaoxia is interesting to her? This is easy to do, my old man can give you a match." ”

Lu Chuan glanced at the old man and said, "What kind of person is she?"

"Ke'er is the niece of the head of the family, which faction do you say? But she has been on the rivers and lakes for the past two years, and she may not know the changes in the door very well, I have to send her a message, and I must not let her go back to the door alone. ”

Lu Chuan nodded and said, "Look at these people of yours are dead, presumably you can't stay in Langzhou anymore, where are you going to go next?"

"I will continue to look for the traces of the head of the sect, and by the way, contact the disciples of our faction to prepare for the recapture of the sect. ”

Lu Chuan groaned: "I think you should go back and go back to Tangmen." First, you can know the enemy's movements, and second, you can use your status as an elder to protect more people. Now even if you find Mrs. Tang, you can't kill it back. Our opponent is a person from the imperial court, if they act rashly, the next time they go up the mountain, it will not be as simple as forcing the head to submit or abdicate, it is likely that the army will press the mountain, and the chickens and dogs will not be left. ”

"Are you serious?" the old man was visibly skeptical.

Lu Chuan smiled: "I'm not a Northern Demon, nor am I a Cloud Swordsman, I don't have that skill or that prestige, and now I don't have the ability to help you recapture the Tang Sect." Leng Longling has this ability, but they are the native soldiers of the imperial court, and their duty is not to leave the northwest, nor to interfere in the affairs of the rivers and lakes. But don't worry, give me some more time, and I will definitely be able to help you recapture the Tang Sect." ”

"You don't want to blame me, they are the native soldiers of the imperial court?

"This group of thieves from the Zhu family mountain colluded with Turpan to plot Jiayuguan, who will deal with it if Leng Longling doesn't deal with it?"

Tang Guanlan was silent, and was silent for a long time before saying, "If I knew that Leng Longling would not make a move, why would I spend so much energy refining this medicine......

"If it were normal, if you said so, I wouldn't have asked for this medicine if I died, but now it's different, even if I kill you, I will get this medicine. ”

Tang Guanlan slowly shook his head and said: "The medicine has been refined, it's useless if I don't give it to you, it's better to be a favor." It's just that I can't get the help of Leng Longling, how can I believe that you can help us recapture the Tang Sect by yourself?"

"I can't convince you of this, because for now, I don't believe it myself. But if you don't believe it, you can't do it, if you can't ask for the five sects and thirteen sects, the other sects will be difficult to protect themselves, and they may not be much better than the Tang sect. ”

The old man suddenly smiled and said, "I believe that one day you will have this ability, but ...... In case I can't wait for that day, please help us recapture the Tang Gate for today's sake, if so...... If you can't find the leader, just help Ke'er, you can be considered acquainted. ”

"Senior, don't worry. After saying that, Lu Chuan turned around and was about to leave.

But I heard Tang Guanlan say again: "Oh, there is another thing I forgot to tell you, last time you asked me if there was a medicine that can make people completely destroyed but move freely......"

Lu Chuan hurriedly asked, "What did the seniors think of?"

The old man tilted his head and said, "I can't think of it after thinking about it." ”

Lu Chuan was a little deflated when he heard this, but he didn't expect the old man to speak loudly, and there was the second half of the sentence, "However, you can go and ask Nanyi, he may be able to tell you something." ”

"Nanyi, do you mean that Nanyi, who was called the Five Uniques with my grandfather, is he still alive?"

"I don't know if Nanyi is alive, but Nanyi is in Guilin. ”
