Chapter 233: All the way south
When Li Changming woke up, it was close to noon.
He didn't know what happened last night, so when he saw the missing tables and chairs in the lobby in the morning, he was very curious, and whispered to Wang Yi, who was carrying his luggage: "Wang Yi, did you kid take advantage of me to get drunk last night, insult the proprietress and then smash the inn." ”
Wang Yi really wanted to beat Li Changming to death, and he didn't know where this guy's idea came from, and he worked hard to smash the inn, and he was so like a hooligan?
Walking out of the inn, Wang Yi led the old horse, and Wang Si followed behind.
When Wang Yi walked out of the inn, the proprietress closed the door of the inn with a bang, and it seemed that she was not going to open for business in the near future.
Recently, it has been rumored in the rivers and lakes that an old monk started from the northern border of the Ming Dynasty and went all the way south, challenging all the people in the rivers and lakes one after another, without any defeat, and many famous masters of the rivers and lakes were defeated under his hands, but the old monk did not hurt their lives, just asked martial arts.
No one knew the identity of this old monk, the old monk just called himself Tianqing monk, and nothing else. The point is that this old monk also has a Taoist priest accompanying him.
The Taoist priest just followed behind the old monk and witnessed the old monk's competition with everyone, never disturbing him, or relying on the large number of people and bullying the few.
People recognize the Taoist priest, the surname of Longhu Mountain, the Great Heavenly Master, Huang Wen.
People are very curious about why Huang Wen followed behind the old monk, and what Longhushan did this for, whether he wanted to conquer the rivers and lakes, and then dominate the rivers and lakes.
Those sects that had a good relationship with Longhu Mountain on the rivers and lakes sent people to Longhu Mountain for verification, but it was a pity that no one from Longhu Mountain responded to them, in other words, Longhu Mountain didn't know what Huang Wen was doing, and they didn't even know when Huang Wen would go down the mountain.
This time, the rivers and lakes exploded, and they all said that Huang Wen was going to betray Longhu Mountain and wanted to stand on his own. In fact, it's no wonder that they think so, since the ascension of the Great Heavenly Master on Longhu Mountain, Huang Wen has begun to close his door and not see anyone, and now he has suddenly appeared next to the old monk, which can't help but make people have this thought.
Huang Wen, who came to Shuzhou with the old monk, didn't care about this, and this statement was still circulating in the rivers and lakes. When the old monk entered the territory of Shuzhou, he began to speed up, which caught Huang Wen a little off guard, and even surprised the people in the rivers and lakes who followed the two of them, and when they wanted to keep up with them, they had already disappeared.
are all great masters, where can this group of Jianghu people catch up.
The old monk came to a high cliff and stopped slightly, although it is now February, but the cold wind is still a little bone-chilling, but these two people have internal strength to keep out the cold, and they don't care.
The cold wind blew, the sound was like waves, and the river under his feet kept beating on both banks, and the sound of the waves accompanied by the cold wind reached the ears of the two people.
The old monk felt something in his heart and said softly: "What about one?"
Then he asked, "Since there is no one, how can there be two?" ”
As soon as these words came out, above the sky, dark clouds hung low, and the thunder exploded in his ears, and there was no one around except Huang Wen.
Huang Wen, who was standing behind the old monk, pursed his lips when he heard this, and remained silent.
After the old heavenly master ascended, Huang Wen felt that the seal of the year was loosened, and by the time Huang Wen went to check, the old monk had already broken the seal and disappeared. It took Huang Wen a lot of effort, even a year of his life, to figure out where the old monk was, and only then did he know what the old monk wanted to do.
The figure of the old monk disappeared in place again, and it had been accurate for a long time
Huang Wen's body moved, and then followed, this time on the official road.
There is an old man with a sword on his back, and he is carrying a woman, if Wang Yi is again, he will know that this woman is Li Shuyue, who has been engaged with Wang Yi since he was a child.
The old man was in Chang'an City at night, and Yue Qingshan, who rescued Wang Yi.
Yue Qingshan's white-haired long sword, horizontal on the official road, saw the old monk and Huang Wen appear, and the long sword behind him suddenly came out of its sheath and fell into his hand.
"Girl, get out of the way. ”
Li Shuyue, who knew that this battle was not simple, changed her previous willfulness and obediently hid aside this time.
The old monk's eyes were cloudy, he looked at Yue Qingshan, shook his head, and said, "You are not my opponent. ”
Yue Qingshan smiled, and then the long sword in his hand was directly slashed at the old monk, the old monk recited a Buddha name, and the Buddha light on his body went in and out, just like a real Buddha descended into the world, King Kong subdued demons, and took this sword hard.
Yue Qingshan flew out upside down, landed not far away, there was no movement, life and death were unknown. Li Shuyue hurriedly ran to Yue Qingshan's side, and saw Yue Qingshan's undulating chest, and the hanging heart finally fell.
Huang Wen doesn't care about Yue Qingshan's life or death, he wants to be famous along the way, and the number of people who challenge the old monk is countless, and now the corpse may not know that it was eaten by that wild dog.
"Did you find it?"
The old monk shook his head, obviously not.
The old monk looked at Li Shuyue, who was helping Yue Qingshan up, and said, "As far as swordsmanship is concerned, this elder of yours can be said to be at the level of a grandmaster, but when it comes to swordsmanship, it is a little unsatisfactory. ”
"He has been practicing swords for a long time, but it's a pity, he has always been in retreat to practice swords, and he has never enjoyed the great scenery of the world, and when he wakes up, you let him go out for a walk, and the kendo thing, you can't always practice in retreat, but you have to go out for a walk, and the scenery outside is better than the walls of the practice room. ”
Huang Wen stood behind the old monk, "You still know how to practice swords? ”
The old monk's figure flashed again, and he disappeared in place and only left a few words in the wind, "That's because they don't deserve it!"
Huang Wen smiled bitterly and said to Li Shuyue: "Send him back, the sword of your Sword Pavilion is old and rusty, fortunately the sword of you young people is still alive, don't learn from your ancestors, close the door every day, go out for a walk." ”
"Although Confucianism is a fart in my eyes, and now it is not even as good as a fart, but there is a good saying, read ten thousand books, travel ten thousand miles. ”
"Little girl, don't be a frog at the bottom of the well, look at the scenery outside the well. ”
After that, he disappeared in place again and went to chase the trace of the old monk. Li Shuyue was in a fog when she heard it, and now she didn't understand it, so she could only help her master first and go back to the Sword Pavilion.
The old monk came to a city this time, and did not enter the city, but stood at the gate of the city, surrounded by the corpses of the soldiers guarding the city, who had obviously just experienced a killing.
When Huang Wen caught up with the old monk, he saw this scene, but for him, he didn't feel any reluctance, just a little regretful that these soldiers were taken as sacrifices.
In the distance, there were many soldiers in armor on the road of the city, walking with heavy steps, and stopped when they were fifty feet away from the city gate.
An aura of oppression permeated them, but unfortunately, this invisible deterrence had no effect on the old monk.
Huang Wen also felt a little sorry, because he knew that these soldiers could not cause substantial injuries to the old monk
harm can only be sent to death in vain.
Cannon fodder only.
Huang Wen couldn't bear to send these to death, and took a step forward directly, "You all go back, we have no malicious intent." ”
The soldiers looked at each other, not knowing what to do, and the order conveyed from above was that as long as the old monk entered the city, he would kill him directly, but the people on the other side said that they had no malicious intent.
Someone recognized Huang Wen, after all, anyone who has been to Longhu Mountain has seen a great heavenly master who has no frame selling wine at the intersection.
The soldiers did not make any moves, because someone had come to give orders not to offend the two men.
The soldiers retreated like a tidal wave, not stopping the two men from entering the city.
But at the gate of the city, there was another man, a woman, who carried a sword.
The old monk was not silent, but looked at the woman with interest, "Interesting, interesting, that is, practicing swords and swords, I have seen a lot of such characters, but like you, there have been achievements, for a hundred years, you are the only one." ”
The woman, whose real name is Jin Dao, took out the sword behind her back and held it in her hand, with only one word, "Please teach your seniors!"
The old monk put his hands on his sleeves, and did not answer the invitation of the golden knife to stand wrongly, and looked into the distance, "What a strong sword, in the past hundred years, among the sword practitioners that the old monk has seen, this person should be the strongest person." ”
Huang Wen squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, and then felt something, and said to the old monk: "It's Li Taibai, the strongest person in this life, and the leader of the sword." ”
The old monk nodded, "Since the old monk couldn't find one a hundred years ago, and now he can't even find two, then let's go and see if the rivers and lakes after a hundred years are more interesting than the rivers and lakes of the old monk." ”
After that, he first slapped the golden knife with one palm, and then didn't look at the golden knife wrongly, and left directly.
The golden knife faced a sudden palm, and directly retreated, and then the internal force of the whole body entered and exited, pouring into the sword.
The golden knife fell back three hundred feet by mistake.
Huang Wen smiled and disappeared again.
After Wang Yi took Wang Si and Li Changming to leave the inn, after half an hour, they came to a fork in the road, from the map obtained by Wang Yi, here to the northwest, is Wudang Mountain, and the northeast is Qingshan City.
From here, Wang Yi was going to part ways with Li Changming and Wang Si and go to Qingshan City alone.
Of course, Wang Si was reluctant to go to Wudang Mountain with Li Changming, but Wang Yi ignored Wang Si's protest and said directly, "If you don't want Li Changming to go to Wudang, then you will walk back to Chang'an City by yourself, or choose to starve to death on the way." ”
Wang Si surrendered directly, obediently walked to Li Changming's side, and didn't dare to speak again.
"Then Wang Si, I will leave it to you. ”
Li Changming threw Wang Si on the old horse, rode on the back of the horse, and assured Wang Yi: "Don't worry, when your matter is over, you will go to Wudang, and I will wait for you there." ”
Wang Yi led the old horse and said with a smile: "If there is no wine, I won't go." ”
Li Changming patted his chest, "How come, when the time comes, if you go to Wudang Mountain and mention my name directly, it will definitely be good." ”
Wang Yi continued to quip: "Will your name be mentioned, and then I will be kicked out." ”
Li Changming grinned, and then rode away.
Wang Yi smiled and waved goodbye to Li Changming, although they couldn't see it.
"Wang Si, follow Brother Li to practice swordsmanship, but don't be lazy or copy books. ”
Seeing Li Changming and Wang Siyuan go, Wang Yi led the old horse towards Qingshan City.
On the official road, the young man walked with the old horse, and this time there was no one around him.
