Chapter Forty-Six: Candles in the Cave Room
Of course Yang Twenty will not stay, it seems that this is another place with a miasma, he has already made a plan, after leaving here, he will go directly to the village at the foot of Taibai Mountain, he wants to go home to take a look!
But this old man Zhang ran over and knelt down in front of him directly, and said, "I implore the young man to stay and save the little girl." ”
Yang Twenty turned sideways, and was not bowed down by him.
Master Zhang's face was sad, he looked up at the young man with a cold face and said: "Zhang has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, offended the young man, and I hope that the son will not blame, but Zhang also has an unspeakable secret! ”
Yang Twenty turned his head to look at the old man Zhang who was crying bitterly, and said flatly: "I am just a passer-by, how can I help Master Zhang share his worries." ”
The hearts of people are sinister, and Yang Twelve has long understood it! The last words of Granny Gui to him back then are still in my heart.
Master Zhang still knelt on the ground and lamented: "The contemptible surname is Zhang, a single name is a winning character, the ancestors have been in business for generations, although there is quite a bit of family property, but Zhang is incompetent, there is only one daughter under his knees, and the little girl is twelve years old, but she caused trouble." ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Sheng couldn't cry anymore, and bowed directly to the beggar young man.
Yang Twenty looked at Zhang Sheng's snot and tears, which didn't look like a fake, so he also had a trace of compassion, stretched out his hand to help Zhang Sheng up, and said, "Master Zhang doesn't have to make this big gift, if there is any difficulty, he still gets up and talks." ”
After Zhang Sheng got up, he wiped his tears and said to the young man: "If the young man doesn't dislike it, please come to the hall to talk." ”
Yang Twenty thought for a moment and said, "I hope Master Zhang is not cheating." ”
Zhang Sheng hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Zhang doesn't dare." ”
Yang Twenty followed Zhang Sheng to the hall again, the two sat on both sides of a tea table, and the housekeeper hurriedly made two cups of tea.
Zhang Sheng sighed again, "Don't dare to hide the young man, today's little girl throws hydrangea to choose a son-in-law, which is really unkind and helpless." ”
Yang Twenty asked, "What does this mean?"
Zhang Sheng asked a question instead: "I wonder if Shaoxia has ever heard of a Jianghu sect called Shenquan Castle?"
Yang Twenty replied simply, "I haven't heard of it." ”
Zhang Sheng asked again: "Dare to ask who the young man is?"
Yang paused for a moment and replied, "My family lives north of Hanzhou. ”
Zhang Sheng nodded, and began to say slowly: "Shaoxia doesn't know, our name here is Loutai Town, which is a small town in the southernmost part of Shangyong County, forty miles east of our Loutai Town, there is a mountain villa called Shenquan Castle, which is a Jianghu sect, and has a grand reputation in our area, and the owner of Shenquan Fort has a son, who is as green as iron since he was a child, and his body is weak and sickly. ”
Yang Twenty didn't answer, Zhang Sheng looked at him and continued: "After the owner of the Divine Fist Castle took his son around to seek medical advice to no avail, he asked a wandering magician to divinate a hexagram for him, and the result was that that the son was born with yin qi and lacked male yang energy, if he wanted to recover, he needed to absorb men's yang qi to neutralize him. ”
Yang Twenty asked, "What does that have to do with Miss Guifu?"
Zhang Sheng shook his head and sighed: "I have only heard of the method of collecting yin and supplementing yang, but how to collect yang and supplement yang! So, that god-killing warlock came up with an idea for the owner of the Divine Fist Castle, that is, to find a woman who is exactly the same as his sick son's birthday, and when he becomes an adult, he will first bow to the three men in the cave room, and then his son will take it!"
Although he is only known for his fate, Zhang Sheng, who is already old, said this, slammed his fist on the table, sighed, and wept.
Speaking of this, Yang Twenty also knew the general truth of the matter, so he asked, "In this way, Miss Guifu has already married two men?"
Zhang Sheng just wiped his tears and nodded.
Yang Twenty asked again: "Where did the two men come from before that, they are really dead?"
At this time, the housekeeper approached Yang for more than twenty points, and explained in a low voice: "That warlock told the Divine Fist Castle that not only must he pick up the Caiyang man by fate, but also must visit the church to get married, and the young lady will officially visit the church with the sick seedlings of the Divine Fist Castle in the future, so how can the Divine Fist Castle allow them to live in the world, as long as the night in the cave room passes, they will be killed immediately." ”
Yang Twenty instantly looked up at the butler, it turned out that he had seen himself as a dying man outside the door before, no wonder he wanted to say such a consoling word to the vendor at the end.
Yang Twenty's eyes were sharp, and the frightened housekeeper retreated again and again, explaining: "I didn't know the power of the young man before, and I hope that the young man will not remember the villain, and Hai Han will forgive." ”
Yang Twenty slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air and sighed lightly: "In this way, your young lady is really wronged. ”
Zhang Sheng spoke again, "Don't dare to hide the young man, we naturally know that this is just the murderous method of the Shenquan Castle who rushed to the doctor, so every time the man who married the little girl was knocked unconscious and put in the cave room, so the little girl is still innocent, but the death of the two men is unknown! Zhang knows that I will be punished by God in the future, so I can only do my best to appease their family, just hope that my daughter can be relieved of her suffering, then I will die." ”
Yang Twenty nodded and asked, "Why don't you report this matter to the government and bring them to justice?"
Zhang Sheng still sighed and replied: "Not to mention that our Loutai Town is already in a corner, now the Divine Fist Fort is powerful, where does the county government dare to manage, and they let us out at the beginning, if they dare not obey, they will kill us restlessly, and then take the little girl back, they will arrange it themselves, alas...... Gangsters, nothing more than this. ”
Then Zhang Sheng knelt in front of Yang Twenty again and said: "I think Shaoxia must be a person with good martial arts, so I told this matter in 1510, if Shaoxia can help each other, Zhang is willing to give all his family wealth to his benefactor and find another place to go alone." ”
Yang Twenty had basically believed what Zhang Sheng said, so he helped him up again and said generously: "I'll take care of this matter." ”
Zhang Sheng said excitedly: "Thank you to Engong, if Engong can help my Zhang family through this difficulty, Zhang will definitely be grateful." ”
Yang Twenty waved his hand and said, "It's not necessary to be grateful, what should we do next?"
Zhang Sheng said: "Haven't you asked Engong Gao's surname yet?"
Yang Twenty said: "In the next surname Yang single name is a twenty character, you don't need to call me Engong, just call me by my name." ”
Zhang Sheng hurriedly said: "Don't dare to be disrespectful to Yang Engong." ”
Yang Twenty didn't like the words Engong, so he simply said, "Then you still call me Shaoxia." ”
Zhang Sheng was stunned for a moment and smiled: "That's fine." ”
Zhang Sheng hesitated, and then said: "Tomorrow, the Divine Fist Castle will send someone to preside over the ceremony, the young man will go to the guest room to rest first, and then he may have to grieve the young man and the little girl to worship the church first, if it is not surprising, then the owner will bring his son to come the day after tomorrow, and then the young man will be dealing with them not too late." ”
Yang Twenty suddenly stopped, looked at Zhang Sheng and said, "I may not participate in the worship ceremony, I don't know if it can be canceled." ”
Zhang Sheng was slightly embarrassed: "Don't hide it from Shaoxia, I don't know that there are already a few spies from the Divine Fist Castle in this house, I'm afraid this matter will be difficult." ”
Yang Twenty firmly refused: "This thing really can't work, we just wait for them." ”
At this time, the housekeeper stepped forward again in a timely manner and proposed: "Why don't you do this, sir, first find a housekeeper, pretend to be the groom and the young lady salute, and then let the young man wait in the room at night." ”
Zhang Sheng nodded and said: "Naturally, you can't be a young man, and it can only be like this." You take the young man to the guest room to bathe and rest, and I will inform you if there is something. ”
Yang Twenty came to a spacious and bright room, and after the housekeeper left, he washed his face, shaved off his beard, and tied up his hair.
After leaving Hengshan, after all, he can't be too sloppy, it doesn't matter if he is dressed in tatters, but he must be clean and tidy, this is the truth that his mother has told him since he was a child, but he still hasn't changed into the new clothes sent by the housekeeper.
At dinnertime, the housekeeper sent a lot of sumptuous meals, Yang Twenty was not polite to this, after eating, he sat on the bed, practiced until dawn, as his master said, after entering the first product, although the true qi in the body is still flowing, but just like a stream flowing into the sea, it can't be shocked by a little wave, and there is no realm growth that can be felt every day before the first product, maybe this is a test of a martial artist's mind.
Yang Twenty stayed in this room all day, and the gongs and drums were beating outside, and it was lively.
It should be that the Divine Fist Castle sent someone to come, staring at that Miss Zhang is holding a wedding with a person who is about to die in their eyes, thinking of this, Yang Twenty smiled slightly, what a powerful gang, dare to take such a majestic name, I, Yang Twenty, will go down the mountain, and I will try your knife today.
He naturally wouldn't be afraid of how powerful this person from the Divine Fist Castle was, not to mention that Yu Jiutian had told him about the general situation of the Jianghu gang back then, but as far as his self-confidence in a first-class martial artist, he naturally wouldn't really put them in his eyes, Yang Twenty was really afraid that they were all a group of unbeaten, so that he couldn't show the power that a Hengshan should have.
When night fell, the housekeeper came to Yang Twenty's room again, saying that he was holding up at this time and asked him to hurry over.
Yang Twenty had no choice but to follow the housekeeper, and for the first time inexplicably walked into the Flower Candle Cave room.
