Volume 2 Nine Yao Linglong Chapter 45 Jade-faced Shura
Seeing the tears overflowing from the corners of his eyes, the old man said with relief: "Boy, it is a pity to lose a body of martial arts, but leaving a life is the most important. Life is meaningful.
Thousands of acres of fertile land, thousands of mansions, once a person dies, these things surnamed Zhang and Wang have nothing to do with you; pearls and jades become rivers, mountains of gold, kick your legs, and disappear; beautiful wives and concubines, children and grandchildren, close your eyes, everything is over. When a person lives, there is all possibility, and when a person dies, there is nothing. ”
Xiao Yunfan blinked his eyes in agreement. The old man said again: "For you, the higher your martial arts, the more harmful it will only be to you." It's a good thing that you don't have martial arts now. Do you know who you're dealing with in the Xuannu Palace? It's the most terrifying organization in the world.
This group is secretive, vicious, and has countless minions. This Peach Blossom Lady is just a small chess piece in their hands, you try your best to kill someone, and it has no impact on the overall situation. On the other hand, in the Xuannu Palace, six of the nine lords were killed and one was injured, and only two were mediocre. As soon as Xue Lanyi died, it was a matter of time before the Xuannu Palace was removed from the rivers and lakes.
You feel that your martial arts are extraordinary, and your wisdom is outstanding, and the other party can't help you for a while. But have you ever thought that those relatives and friends of yours may not all have the same skills as you? If they neglect to take precautions, they can take their lives at any time.
With a chivalrous heart like you, if someone takes your friends and relatives, you will naturally not give up. As long as the other party threatens these people's lives, you, a hero, can only wipe your neck. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Yunfan was terrified and broke out in a cold sweat. The old man continued: "The so-called chivalrous righteousness cannot be generously killed just by virtue of a moment of bravery. But whoever achieves great things must count the four words in his heart and act according to his ability. The so-called saving people has already existed, and their own lives are gone, so what can they do to save people. ”
Xiao Yunfan disagreed in his heart, and said to himself: It's easy for you to say, if I don't fight to the death at a critical moment, I can still kneel and beg for mercy. Husband, sacrifice yourself to save others, die well, what is there to fear?
The old man saw the disdain in Xiao Yunfan's eyes, and said with a smile: "The old man's words, you must be very unconvinced." The so-called history is just a cover to deceive the world. Chivalry and righteousness are just people who practice martial arts and put gold on their faces.
There is a way to save people before they exist, and do what they can. Martial arts are not as good as people, so play with your brain. In the past, Han Gaozu was defeated by Xiang Yu several times, and what is the reason for becoming famous in the next battle? That's why Liu Bang said, 'I'd rather fight wits than strength.' ’
If the enemy is cunning, you have to be more cunning than they are. For example, you exposed Wei Wuwu's ghost tricks in the main hall of the Xuannu Palace, but you still couldn't get rid of her on the spot, why?
That's because you're not thinking about it and planning it out of your mind. If you can expect Wei Wuwu to run away, you should not give her any chance. A hidden weapon master is planted in advance, and when she escapes, she will be killed with one move. What is the woe of today?"
Listening to his words, Xiao Yunfan sighed with emotion: "What this senior said is not unreasonable, but things in the world are changing, and how many people really do it without a drop of water? Now that my martial arts are all lost, my life is still alive, which is also a great luck in misfortune." This senior has worked hard to save my life, and what should I repay him for this kindness. Why did he care so much about me because he was not related to me?
The old man saw Xiao Yunfan's eyes were confused, and he knew what was in his heart, and replied: "The old man saves you without asking for anything in return." Compassion is shared by everyone. I can't bear to give you your life at such a young age. As for who the old man is, you don't have to know. If you are wise, listen to my advice, and after you recover from your injury, go home and no longer ask about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and you will not fail to live up to my hard work on you.
There is one more thing you have to remember, Xiao Yunfan is dead, and now everyone on the rivers and lakes knows it. If you don't want your friends and family to be targeted by that mysterious organization, keep it a secret.
The matter of the Xuannu Palace, the old man has already helped you take care of it. The road is under your feet, and how you walk is up to you. Alright, I have some important business to do, so let's say goodbye. ”
As he spoke, Xiao Yunfan heard a slight sound of footsteps in his ears, and then gradually disappeared. He breathed a long sigh of relief and said in his heart: Xiao Yunfan is dead, I ...... Who am I now?
After a long time, he slowly sat up and stepped off the stone bed. It turned out that he was in a stone room. On the stone table in front of him were roast chicken, sauced beef, braised eggs, peanuts, mushrooms and vegetables, and a coarse porcelain jar. He reached out and lifted the lid of the jar, and the heat came out, and it turned out to be Laba porridge. After sleeping for a long time, he was already hungry and thirsty, and after eating three bowls in a row, he suddenly felt warm all over his body.
For ordinary people, this blow is not small, and they must be depressed. But Xiao Yunfan is open-minded by nature, and after figuring out the old man's saying that "only when people are alive is meaningful, but when people die, they will be a hundred", he was even more energetic, and the troubles in his heart disappeared immediately.
After being full of wine and food, Xiao Yunfan pushed open a door, but he didn't expect it to be another stone room. A bronze mirror is embedded in the wall of this stone room. Xiao Yunfan took a closer look and was taken aback. I saw a man with a thin face and a shawl hair in the middle of the mirror. When I thought that there was no one else here, and the person in the mirror was myself, I was shocked. He reached out and touched the face, and said to himself, "This senior has even changed my appearance. ”
The words of the old man sounded in my ears again, and my heart suddenly realized. Secretly said: "This senior thinks really thoughtfully, if I am still the same as I was, those people will definitely not let me go, and as long as my martial arts are slightly revealed, I will definitely be spied on and hidden, and I will fall into a place of no return." Now he has been reborn as a human being. Those who care about me will be spared poison.
So much better. But where should I go in the vastness of the world? By the way, let's go back to Ziyu Mountain. Master's last order has been completed. It's time to go home, I don't know how big black and two yellow are okay?"
Suddenly, his eyes turned to the wall, and the black scabbard had been pierced into the stone wall, leaving a small part outside. This sword has followed Xiao Yunfan for decades, like a sibling, and naturally refuses to give up easily. He reached out and grabbed the scabbard and tried to pull it out, but tried three or four times in a row, but to no avail.
At the moment, he smiled bitterly and said: "This senior's martial arts can be described as extraordinary, and a sword scabbard can also pierce straight into the stone wall." Then he sighed and said: "Alas, good brother, Xiao Yunfan is a waste now, and even you can't save it, it's really ashamed." Thinking about it, the jade lion who is not afraid of heaven and earth is dead, and I am a different person from now on. I have to have a name for wandering the rivers and lakes, Xiao Yunfan's three words must not be used, what should I call it?"
Just after a snowfall, the pavilions and pavilions of the Xuannu Palace were decorated with white snowflakes like a glass world. The moonlight was particularly clear in the snow, and a young girl stood under the eaves and sobbed secretly. A face was red from the cold, and there were crystal tears sticking to the long eyelashes. Then a woman came out of the room, and she took a cloak and draped it gently over the shoulders of the weeping girl.
The girl turned her head, her tears were shining, her lips trembled and she said two words: "Senior sister!" Jiang Hanyue reached out and took a piece of brocade to wipe away the tears on the girl's cheeks, and said with pity: "Silly girl, it's freezing this day, why are you crying here alone?"
Shui Hanyan choked and said, "Senior sister, I feel sad, why do you say that Brother Xiao is such a good person as God, why should God treat him like this?" Jiang Hanyue held her in her arms, reached out and gently patted her on the back and said softly: "Silly girl, sister knows that you are sad." But you can't do that to yourself. I used to have some preconceptions about him, but now that I think about it, it's all my fault. When he was dying, I couldn't express this apology, and I regretted it in my heart.
People will always grow old and die. Xiao Yunfan just took a step earlier. My sister knows that you have a deep affection for him, so she must be ...... Presumably, he will rejoice in his heart. Xiao Yunfan is gone, I can't protect you anymore, but my sister is still there, and I will always protect Yan'er. ”
But Xiao Yunfan packed his bags, and when he caught a glimpse of a row of jars on the stone table, he lifted the lid and took a look, it turned out to be all kinds of spices. Thinking of the long distance of this trip, it is bound to eat and sleep in the open. Bring some spices with you in case you need them.
The secret room where Xiao Yunfan was recuperating from his injuries was built in a cave, but he never expected that this cave was not far from the Xuannu Palace. Not long after coming out of the cave, he went to the foot of the Xuannu Palace.
It is the middle of winter, when the snow is falling and the birds and beasts are gone. He walked alone in the wind and snow. After walking for a long time, he felt a little tired and stood under a pine tree to rest. Looking up, the red wall of the Xuannu Palace is particularly distinct under the cover of ice and snow. And the tall statue of the goddess is also more solemn in the wind and snow.
He stood for a long time, and sighed in his heart: He revisited the place day by day, and he didn't know what was still in front of him.
Suddenly, there was the sound of fighting and shouting not far away. Xiao Yunfan followed the sound and saw two ragged beggars attacking a young monk with bare hands on a piece of snow. Xiao Yunfan saw that the three of them were fighting for their lives, so it was inconvenient for him to rush forward to persuade him. Moreover, if you lose all your martial arts, you can only wait and see what happens when you encounter such a situation. He hid himself behind a boulder and looked at the three of them.
The monk had a thin face, a string of Buddhist beads on his chest, and a large bamboo basket on his shoulder. Two beggars, one older and one young, with the older beggar hanging six small cloth bags. Xiao Yunfan walked the rivers and lakes, and he still knew a little about the story of the beggar gang, this person had six cloth bags hanging on his body, as if he was at the level of an elder. Why did this monk offend the beggars, and he couldn't figure out why for a while.
The older beggar had prominent cheekbones, sunken eye sockets, and a long beard swaying from side to side on his chest. The steel knife in his hand flew up and down, and the attack was fierce. The young beggar beside him was holding an iron rod, horizontally, blocking, picking, and splitting, and the stick wind was howling, and his kung fu was quite successful.
This old and young, the knife and stick cooperate, closely knit. He forced the monk to retreat again and again. Xiao Yunfan looked at the monk, only to see that he was dressed in a moon-white monk's robe, with a high nose and deep eyes, and a heavy murderous aura on his pale face. Xiao Yunfan said in his heart: "What does the grievance of these three people have to do with me? Staying here, it is inevitable that you will get into trouble." "This is a serious illness, there is no martial arts, and even the courage has become smaller, and I am about to turn around and leave.
I only heard the old beggar say: "Yu Shura, you killed my brother, this hatred must be revenged." Today you will either die or I will die. Take it!" The three words of Jade Shura reached Xiao Yunfan's ears, and he couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart.
He had heard of this person's name, about two years ago, there was a rumor in the rivers and lakes that there was a demon monk, who was not very old and had extremely high martial arts, but whenever he was not used to seeing things, the prophet would say to the other party, and the other party must give him a good explanation, if he could not satisfy him, the other party would die in three days and be extremely ugly. This person is as gentle as jade on the outside, but his methods are extremely ruthless. Both black and white are very jealous, and the name of "Jade Shura" has been widely known since then.
Xiao Yunfan learned that this monk was Jade Shura, and couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
I saw the monk with one palm on his chest, and said with an awe-inspiring expression: "Your brother killed the innocent, I just sent him out of the sea of suffering early." The old beggar straightened his chest, pointed at Yu Shura and said: "Good one to get out of the sea of suffering, the old man wants to see what skills you have to get me out of the sea of pain today?" Since Tan Yue is obsessed, then I will send Your Excellency on the road. ”
The young beggar said angrily, "You thief monk, you killed my uncle." Accept the fate. With that, he raised the iron rod in his hand and smashed it straight towards the top door of the Jade Shura. The force of this stick was heavy, and Yu Shura jumped backwards with both feet, slid out of the seven feet, and dodged lightly. The iron rod slashed unabated, and slammed into the ground with a choking thud, and the stone chips burst into the air, and the ground was indentated the size of a wine glass.
Jade Shura glanced at the dent and smiled, "Xiao Tanyue's anger is too big. Buddha Yuyun: Greed, hatred, and ignorance, and the three poisons. If you don't quit, you will suffer from it. ”
The young beggar's move of "splitting Huayue" was so strong that his palms were numb, and the tiger's mouth cracked, drenching blood. This trick is also his specialty, but it is easy to avoid the other party, and with the elders on the side, he can't hold it on his face. Jade Shura sneered again, and he was even more furious.
His face flushed, he stretched out his hand to take the rod sideways, and spun his body like a windmill to attack again. Yu Shura danced with his big sleeves and his feet rose into the air. He was in the air, pressed down with one palm, and turned his five fingers into a claw cover against the opponent's Heavenly Spirit Cover.
The young beggar heard the sound of the wind in his ears, raised his arms up, and the iron rod was horizontal, blocking the opponent's grasp. Jade Shura turned his claws into palms, pressed them on the iron rod, and his body rose several feet. At the same time, he used the kung fu of a thousand pounds.
He stepped on the iron rod with two feet, as if with a thousand strengths. The beggar below trembled with his arms, his face was red, and beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on his forehead, revealing a look of great pain. He slowly bent his legs.
Yu Shura's eyes were closed, one palm was placed on his chest, and he read in his mouth: "All appearances are false. If you see things that are not like each other, you will see them as they are. ”
Listening to his words, he had to send this little beggar to the west to see that he was willing to stop. Xiao Yunfan looked at it in his eyes and said secretly: "This monk is very good." Looking at his sick look, he didn't expect his martial arts to be so wonderful. I used to do the kung fu of the jack pendant, so I couldn't do it so chic. It's a pity that this person is an evil demon, and even if he has the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth, he can only use it to bully the weak. As soon as I thought of this, the admiration for him in my heart turned into disgust and contempt. ”
