introduction

Three talents and four are proud, and the two elders of heaven and earth compete for the peak.

Acacia has affection, the sword is ruthless, and the blood river is shocking to the world.

This ballad, which was once widely recited on the rivers and lakes, has now been gradually forgotten by the rivers and lakes after nearly fifty years, and perhaps no one remembers this ballad anymore......

What happened in the battle of Longhu Snow Peak back then? There is no way to know, maybe it was earth-shattering, crying ghosts and gods, or maybe it was light and windy......

Although people are far away, the rivers and lakes still continue......

Chapter 1: Miracles have a small success and frost fire appearing in the first world

Plug the Arctic land, deep in the Great Khing'an Mountains, it is the middle of winter, the goose feather like snow flies with the wind, the red pine all the mountains are upside down with silver filaments, it is very beautiful, look at it, the white vast snow, all things are slaughtered, the silence is abnormal, there is only the sound of the snow falling, which makes people feel refreshed and happy. In this icy and snowy place, it is extremely difficult to survive, and the severe cold of dozens of degrees below zero is really not something that ordinary people can resist.

Suddenly, there was a clear whistle, shaking through the sky, the snow on the trees fell one after another, confused, and beautiful, "thousands of trees and pear blossoms" are extremely beautiful.

A teenager rose up in the snow, his toes touching the tips of several pine trees, and in an instant he was on top of another pine tree. What is surprising is that there is no snow falling on the tips of a few pine trees, and there are no footprints where the boy landed. The young man was overjoyed in his heart: "Breakthrough? The third level of the Ice and Fire Divine Skill has finally broken through? I succeeded?" The young man couldn't hold back the ecstasy in his heart, and couldn't help but let out another long howl, woo...... , the pear blossoms of thousands of trees are blooming again. And the thick snow around the young man was all stirred, and the young man looked at the scene around him, and it was difficult to hide the joy on his face.

Suddenly, a gray shadow fell from the sky, and it is not an exaggeration to describe its speed with electric light and flint, and it is many times faster than the speed of its youth. The young man was shocked but overjoyed, and knelt down directly: "Master."

Old man: "Feng'er, the third breakthrough?"

The young man said: "Thanks to Master's careful teaching, the apprentice has broken through the third level of the Ice and Fire Divine Skill. ”

The old man said: "Yes, there are five levels of ice and fire divine skills, and if you can break through the third level in a short time, in addition to your natural qualifications, it is also inseparable from your hard work." ”

The young man grinned: "It is inseparable from Master's careful cultivation." ”

The old man smiled and said: "Don't be poor, now that you have been following the teacher for thirteen years, it's time to tell you something, follow the teacher." ”

After that, the big sleeve waved, leaped up, in the blink of an eye has been dozens of miles away, the young man was stunned, then stepped on the ground, followed closely, the old man seemed to rise and fall but not up and down, seemed to be hard but not force, like catkins in the wind, seemed to have never landed, but the speed was extremely fast, about half a pillar of incense, the old man arrived at a wooden house in the deepest part of the dense forest and stopped, looking calm.

After a while, the boy finally caught up, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and the top of his head was also full of white gas. The old man smiled and said: "Feng'er, your light skills in stepping on the snow with the wind have also made great progress, and in the case of the success of the third teacher, it is only a little slower for a while, it is really a Confucian teachable!"

The young man was shocked, smacked his lips, and thought: I have reached the limit just now, and the master has only used three successful powers? ”

The old man said: "Feng'er, don't be too humble, you are very happy to be a teacher at such a young age, you have such an achievement." In this way, you make a few dishes, scald the pot of old wine, and let's have a good drink for the master and apprentice, and the teacher has something to tell you. ”

Feng'er said, "Okay, Master, you can rest for a while, and I'll go and prepare." ”

The old man nodded slightly, turned around and got on the kang, sat cross-legged, like an old monk in a steady state, no longer speaking.

Feng'er turned around and walked outside the door, whistled, and two dots, one white and one black, rushed in the distance, and when they arrived in front of them, it turned out to be a white tiger and a black bear. The white tiger was snow-white and majestic. The black bear was all black, naïve, sitting on the ground, rubbing his eyes from time to time, as if he had just woken up from hibernation, smelling the owner's call, and having to come to the aggrieved expression, it was really cute.

The young man touched the forehead of the white tiger with his left hand, patted the forehead of the black bear with his right hand, and said: "Da Bai, Xiao Hei, Master is in a rare good mood today, and I have also broken through the third level of the Ice and Fire Divine Skill today, and I am also very happy, so I asked you to come over, have a meal together, and accompany the old master to be happy." Da Bai, you go and catch two pheasants, Xiao Hei, you go and catch a stupid roe deer, I will make you something to eat today. ”

A tiger and a bear seemed to understand human words, and their eyes were full of light, and they rushed away.

Feng'er turned around and went back to the house, went to the kitchen, the kitchen walls and beams were hung with all kinds of jerky, dried vegetables, garlic, and chili peppers, which were really everything, and Feng'er went into the kitchen to be busy.

Less than an hour later, Da Bai came back with two pheasants in his mouth, and Xiao Hei also came back with a roe deer, and the two guys put the pheasants and roe deer on the ground, and they all ran into the house, and fell asleep on the ground.

Feng'er picked up the pheasant and roe deer and cleaned them up in a spring outside the house.

Two hours later, the sky was getting darker, the howling north wind was stronger, the snow was getting heavier, the temperature was dropping harder, but the room was warm, and a roe deer was roasted on the red charcoal fire, and the skin was already roasted golden, and the smell was bubbling with hot oil, and the fragrance filled the whole house. The two pheasants stewed in the pot mixed with the aroma of pine mushrooms are also bursting. Da Bai Xiao Hei was awakened by this aroma, and looked at the roe deer on the barbecue with his eyes, and his saliva flowed all over the ground.

After another moment, in the middle of the table were half a roasted roe deer crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, a pot of stewed crispy pheasant, a plate of cut venison, a plate of peanuts, a plate of sticky bean buns, a plate of roe deer meat fried dried cucumber slices, a small plate of garlic paste, and a pot of hot burning knives, which made people salivate.

After Feng'er set up the wine and food, she walked to the side of the kang, knelt on the ground, kowtowed respectfully, and shouted, "Master, the meal is ready, please eat at your old man's house." ”

The old man's closed eyes slowly opened, the essence flashed away, slowly got off the kang and walked to the table, sat down, Feng'er respectfully poured wine for the master, and also poured a glass for himself, saying, "Master, your old man, please." The old man nodded slightly, picked up the cup and took a sip: "This burning knife is still the most suitable for me." He picked up a knife and cut a piece of roe deer meat, put it in his mouth, and chewed it gently: "Feng'er, your cooking skills have made great progress, and it's not half a point worse than being a teacher." ”

Feng'er blushed slightly and said, "Thank you, Master, for the compliment, but your old man's peerless martial arts are not as good as thirty percent of your old man's." ”

The old man put down his wine glass and said: "Feng'er, you have to remember, if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, you have broken through the triple ice and fire magic skill at this age, which is already commendable, remember, don't rush it!"

Feng'er nodded and said, "Remember." ”

The old man said, "Big white and little black, you called them too?"

Feng'er said, "Yes, Master." ”

The old man turned his eyes to look at Bai and Xiao Hei, and smiled, Da Bai was gnawing on the roe deer meat with relish, and Xiao Hei was stuffing sticky bean buns into his mouth one by one. The old man turned his head to Feng'er and said, "Feng'er, let's finish eating quickly, Master has something to say to you." ”

Feng'er nodded, and the master and apprentice were swept away, eating a table of dishes and drinking three pots of wine. After eating, the old man wiped his mouth and said with satisfaction: "Pepsi often follows fate, and the diet is poor and fresh." The golden bottle of sake is ten thousand, and the jade plate is worth ten thousand dollars. These two verses are really good. Feng'er, if you step into the rivers and lakes in the future, if you get tired of it, with your cooking skills, after retiring, even if you open a wine shop and restaurant, you can have no worries about food and clothing, hahaha......"

Feng'er blushed, cleaned up the table one by one, took the spring water to boil, made a cup of tea for the master, respectfully served it to the old man, sat down at the table and said, "Master, listen to your old man's teachings. ”

The old man took a sip of tea: "Apprentice, you have been following the teacher for thirteen years, and now you are sixteen years old, and the ice and fire god has broken through the triple level, and it is time for you to travel the rivers and lakes." ”

Feng'er was taken aback: "Master......"

The old man waved his hand: "Listen to me, Feng'er, have you noticed that although you are my apprentice, although your internal strength is very similar to that of your teacher, it is different?"

Feng'er replied, "Master, I found out, but I didn't dare to ask your old man. ”

The old man said: "As a teacher, he is now more than 100 years old, and when he was a teenager, he accidentally got a secret book and practiced divine skills.

Feng'er replied, "I don't know, please let the master know." ”

The old man replied, " Ordinary people who practice martial arts, there is only one kind of internal strength that can be practiced, and the cheats obtained for the teacher can be practiced at the same time with two different attributes of internal strength, that is to say, the teacher has two different internal forces at the same time, so the internal force is also twice that of ordinary people, and the two internal forces of the teacher are called fire and ice, and the left hand can be cold and icy, and the right hand can be fire. ”

Feng'er opened her mouth wide, stunned in place, and secretly thought: Two kinds of internal strength?

The old man continued: "Back then, the teacher relied on two kinds of magic skills to break through the rivers and lakes, although he did not taste defeat, but the two kinds of magic skills can only be used in turn, but not at the same time, I feel a little regretful for the teacher. Sixteen years ago, the teacher had a whim, if the two divine skills were kneaded together and launched at the same time, the power could be increased at least several times, so the teacher began to gradually withdraw from the rivers and lakes to retreat all day, and devoted himself to cultivation, hoping to combine the two divine skills into one, but since ancient times, ice and fire have not been separated, and ice and charcoal have different furnaces, how easy is it to talk about? ”

Feng'er was taken aback: "Huh?"

The old man continued: "Later, with the last glimmer of hope for the teacher, I found the 'Three Absolute Doctor Saints' Xue Qing, this person is a medical skill, and I have had several faces, I went to find him, he is also a doctor of benevolence, desperately lost ten years of internal strength, with a hand "You Long Asking Destiny Needle", it took a full three months to cure the teacher, during the period, in order to keep the internal strength of the teacher, he Renhetang's natural treasures, natural materials and earth treasures ate a lot, and finally passed the risk. Feng'er, do you know who Xue Qing is?"

Feng'er replied, "I don't know. ”

The old man said: "He is your father, Feng'er, your full name should be Xue Feng, and the three absolute doctors Saint Xue Qing is your father." ”

Feng'er opened her mouth wide: "Father" is so distant and unfamiliar to him, for a long time, he has long regarded Master as his dearest, but at this moment, the word "father" has become so kind and familiar, and suddenly, he feels proud of having such a father who can sacrifice his ten years of internal strength to save people.

The old man glanced at Feng'er, who was stunned, and continued: "Back then, I was able to save this life and my strength thanks to your father, during the three months of treatment, your father also taught me a lot of medical principles, and I finally realized the method of mixing the two divine skills into one divine skill, but I can no longer practice as a teacher, because the two skills for the teacher have already been completed, and if you want to fuse, you must first disperse all the skills and practice again." The first is that the teacher is old and doesn't want to start from scratch, and the second is that he doesn't have the ambition he had back then, so the teacher didn't re-practice the mixed divine skills, which is the 'Ice and Fire Divine Skills' you are practicing now."

The old man took a sip of tea, and continued: "When I inherited your father's great kindness, I couldn't repay you as a teacher, until one day, I saw you playing in the garden, when you were only three years old, you are still ignorant and ignorant, but your parents have often given you a soup bath of rare and exotic plants since childhood, so that your physique is different from superman, and your roots and bones are wonderful. The second is that you were very likable at that time, the old man has been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for decades, has never been married, and has no children under his knees, and he also wants to take you under the door and inherit my mantle. So I went to your parents, and after some persuasion, they finally agreed to let me take you, and I also promised that I would return them a martial arts wizard for as little as ten years or more than fifteen years. Feng'er, you don't blame Master, do you? Blame Master for separating your flesh and blood for more than ten years, right?"

Feng'er hurriedly knelt on the ground and replied respectfully: "The apprentice didn't blame the master in the slightest, on the contrary, in the past thirteen years, the master has treated me as his own and taught me carefully, in Feng'er's heart, he has already regarded you as the closest person, how can he blame you?"

The old man's eyes were a little moist, and he helped up Feng'er, who was kneeling on the ground, and said: "Good apprentice, don't hurt you for the teacher, have you found it, your ice and fire magic skills are different from those for teachers, that is, you can only single fire palm and cold ice palm for the teacher, and you have ice and fire magic skills, not only can you single two kinds of palm power, but also can send out the unique ice and fire palm of ice and fire magic skills, the ice of this palm power is the fetus, the fire is supplemented, and vice versa can also be the fire for the fetus, Ice is supplemented, just like the yin and yang fish of Taiji, there is yin in the yang, and there is yang in the yin, and the power is not known how many times greater, which is the difference between the ice and fire magic and the cold ice divine skill. Although you are young, your internal strength is enough to compete with ordinary martial arts people who practice a jiazi, although it is the third level, you should also be able to squeeze into the top masters in the world, and the fourth level of ice and fire magic skills can increase the power of ordinary martial arts people for a hundred years. The fifth division is estimated to increase the strength of at least three hundred years. ”

Feng'er was stunned again, tonight, the master gave him too much shock.

The old man continued: "Now your skill may be slightly inferior to the top masters, but it is estimated that there should be no problem in retreating. In addition, how did you practice the ice and fire sword technique I taught you?"

Feng'er said: "The apprentice has been trained to the chest. ”

Old man: "Yes, now that you have achieved your miraculous achievements, I will give you another magic weapon for the teacher, tonight, there is a thousand-year-old slurry hole in Halaha Mountain that will erupt, and there is a good piece of extraterrestrial meteorite iron for the teacher, and ordinary fire must not melt it." Tonight, I just used the fire of the earth to melt it and refine it into a divine weapon. Now it's almost time, you go and get ready, and we'll leave in a moment. ”

Feng'er was just about to say something, but the old man interrupted him and said, "At this time, you don't need to say more, you go and prepare first, and everything will be said when the sword is refined." Feng'er nodded and turned to prepare.

After a while, the two of them galloped towards the direction of Halaha Mountain, about two hours later, they finally arrived at the thousand-year-old magma crypt, at this moment, the crypt has not yet gushed, but the surrounding temperature is rising sharply, the master and apprentice are in the body, but they don't feel anything, but the big white and the little black are unbearable, and they are far away from ten zhang.

The old man opened the burden behind him, and a piece of snow-white meteorite was exposed, black meteorite is no longer common, this meteorite is actually snow-white, and it is rare to see it in a hundred years. There was even a scabbard. Feng'er's eyes widened again. The old man laughed: "Isn't it strange? Hehe, I want to make a sword for you, do you remember that I went out for my teacher six years ago? I went to Liaodong once for my teacher, and I collected a thirty-year-old shark from a fisherman, and made this scabbard. ”

Feng'er knelt down on the ground and said, "Master has a heart, but I don't know what to say." ”

The old man waved his sleeves, and a soft strength lifted him up and said: "Stinky boy, why do you kowtow at every turn today, get up, cheer up, you still need your help as a teacher." ”

Feng'er's expression froze, and she hurriedly said, "Yes." ”

After another hour or so, the crypt finally slowly gushed out thick magma, and the temperature was frighteningly high, and Dabai and Little Bear had already escaped a hundred feet away. Although the master and apprentice had divine skills to protect their bodies, they were also sweating like rain, and the old man hurriedly said: "Shan Yun Cold Ice Divine Skill." Feng'er hurriedly used the magic skills, which was much better, but it was still fierce. At this time, the old man suddenly threw the meteorite into the boiling magma with his strength, constantly urging the internal force of the ice, and controlling the meteorite to roll in the magma. Gradually, the meteorite softened, and under the urging of internal forces, the tip of the sword, the sword body, and the hilt of the sword were gradually deformed, and they became one. Suddenly, the old man drank clearly, pulled the sword out of the magma, hung in the air, his left hand continued to beat on the sword body with his energy, the impurities gradually fell off, and a sword glowing with blue light finally took shape, and the old man shouted: "Feng'er, bite the tip of your tongue and spray blood evenly on the sword body." All the weapons of God have confessed to the Lord. Feng'er bit the tip of her tongue and sprayed a mouthful of hot blood on the sword. The strange thing is that he didn't imagine that the hot air swirled, but instead this mouthful of blood suddenly disappeared from the sword body and was sucked into the sword! Feng'er was stunned for a moment, and the old man shouted: "What are you doing? Help me hang it in the air with my strength." ”

Feng'er hurriedly used her magic skills and hung the sword firmly in the air. The old man hurriedly took out two grinding stones from his waist, and threw them at the sword body in mid-air with strength, polished them repeatedly, and shouted: "Be quick, it will be cold for a while, and you won't be able to grind, although my two grinding stones are made of thousand-year-old stones, if you want to sharpen the sword, you must also take advantage of the time when the sword body is not completely cold." ”

Feng'er hovered the sword with vigor. A quarter of an hour has passed, and although he has achieved his first miraculous achievements, his internal strength is not as deep as that of the old man. At this moment, I was sweating profusely, gritting my teeth, and the grinding stone was gradually getting smaller. At the moment when the grinding stone was about to disappear, the old man shouted: "Let go." Feng'er immediately collected the internal force. The old man threw the sword far away with his strength, inserting it into the snowdrift in the distance, and suddenly, the snow within a kilometer of the sword body turned into steam, and the sword body was completely submerged in the ground, leaving only the gauntlet and the hilt outside. At this time, the old man also sat on the ground, his silver hair was full of beads of sweat, and he panted and said, "It's finally done, it's finally done, it's finally done." ”

At this moment, Feng'er was already in a semi-collapsed state, sitting on the ground, slowly pranayama. After a while, he finally regained some internal strength, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the master was holding a sword and wrapping something on the hilt, Feng'er asked puzzledly: "Master, what are you?" The old man said: "Since I got this meteorite forty years ago, I wanted to build a magic weapon, and now it is cheap for you boy, this is a hundred-year-old python skin, wrapped around the hilt of the sword and this sword also complements each other." Feng'er, come over here and take a look at this sword. ”

Feng'er took the sword and looked at it carefully, but when she saw this sword: the sword body was slightly exposed to blue light, and the cold air was pressing, as if it had been integrated with Feng'er.

The old man said: "Sure enough, you are the one who recognizes the master, and a mouthful of your blood is sprayed on the body of the sword, and this sword recognizes you as the master." Others can't control it if they get it, so you inject the Ice and Fire Divine Skill into the sword body and try it. ”

Feng'er used the magic power and injected it into the sword body, and the sword body immediately formed a layer of frost, but there was a faint red glow of flame at the edge of the sword, red and blue, which was a strange spectacle.

The old man said: "This sword is three feet six inches, three hundred and sixty days in one year, about one inch and eight minutes wide, and it weighs about eight pounds and one tael, and it is the number of nine or nine in the old man's life. But at this moment, it's really cheap for you kid, and the old man doesn't need it now. ”

Feng'er hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed respectfully, saying, "Thank you, Master, for your success." ”

The old man didn't help him get up, but took Feng'er's three heads and said, "Since this sword has recognized you as its master, then you can name it!"

Feng'er replied: "Master, this sword frost sword body, flame sword blade, why don't you call it 'frost fire'?"

The old man bowed slightly, "Frost fire, frost fire, well, it's really good, it's called frost fire." Feng'er, let's go back, have a good night's rest, and tomorrow I will explain something to you for the teacher. ”

A moment later, the two of them, a tiger and a bear, disappeared into the snowy night......
