Chapter 42 to Jiangxi again

The arrival of Pei Yun and Pei Feng has brought a lot of joy to this big family. Pei Yun and Pei Feng are a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, but their personalities are very different: Pei Yun is active, smart and clever, extremely fast in sword moves, and almost never merciless when fighting with others, even when he is fed with He Xiong Xizhen; Pei Feng is quiet, diligent and housework, but his martial arts are not weak. Make two-handed swords, attack and defend to a degree, and the internal strength is better than Pei Yun.

Pei Yun is active because of his personality, so Xi Zhen arranged for He Xiong to teach internal strength. Just because He Xiong is also a cynical character, he thinks that one thing will drop one thing, and he will definitely find a way to subdue Pei Yun. Unexpectedly, this Pei Yun made He Xiong very sad, and he often ran to Xi Zhen to complain, and even tried to pick a son several times. But every time he was pinched to death by Xi Zhen, He Xiong has also had a big head recently.

Pei Feng is a great beauty, which is similar to Pei Yun and the others, Pei Yun's handsomeness sometimes makes Xi Zhen jealous. Pei Feng followed her uncle Xi Zhen to learn Tai Chi Sword, and she was able to learn Tai Chi Sword at one point, and within a few days, she had the demeanor of a master. Because of the two-handed sword, it is very similar to Xi Zhen, so there is a great leap in martial arts.

Yu Ying is a girl with an uncertain heart, one moment she thinks He Xiong's kung fu is fun, so she goes to learn for two days, and then she thinks Xi Zhen's kung fu is fun, so she runs to learn for two days, and finally achieves nothing. Everyone knows that she is not a material for martial arts practice, and they don't care. However, Pei Feng has an excellent relationship with her, and the two almost talk about everything. But Pei Feng is calm and knows what to say and what not to say.

Huang Zicheng and Zhu Yunwen were also busy with the affairs of the imperial court and rarely visited, but gave everyone a lot of time to practice martial arts.

After the end of the day's teaching, Xi Zhen sat in front of the court and drank tea, and when the interest was high, He Xiong came to make noise. Xi Zhen didn't have a match, until He Xiong suddenly talked about the Cixi Yunshan map, Xi Zhen suddenly asked: "Cixi Yunshan map, do you really think it's a legend?"

He Xiong was surprised and said: "We have all been to Ningbo Mansion, we have all checked, and there is nothing, why don't you give up? Or do you have new discoveries?"

Xi Zhen took out the map of Cixi Yunshan and looked at it repeatedly, and this familiar scene kept echoing in his mind. Where the hell is this? I must have been to this place, otherwise it wouldn't be so familiar.

He Xiong looked at it for a long time, and suddenly glared at the strange and shouted: "This child is crazy, alas, after Miss Guan left, this child became more and more silent." ”

Xi Zhen's thoughts were also pulled back in an instant, and Guan Qing's smile appeared in front of him again. Since Yuan Zhoufu met Guan Qing, Xi Zhen felt more and more that he could end his wandering days. "Wait" Xi Zhen suddenly exclaimed as if he had discovered something, which also startled He Xiong, and Xi Zhen muttered to himself: "Yuanzhou Mansion, Yuanzhou Mansion." ”

He Xiong felt that something was wrong with the situation, and couldn't help asking: "Yuanzhou Mansion is thousands of miles away, what happened to Yuanzhou Mansion?"

Xi Zhen suddenly looked at the Cixi Yunshan map carefully again as if he had a clear mind, and sure enough, he found something: in the lower right corner of the Cixi Yunshan map, there were several lines of extremely small and extremely small words. These lines of text are crooked, and they coincide with the lines of the picture, so that even the most careful person will only think that they are the lines of the picture, not the words. Those few lines of small characters were carefully identified by Xi Zhen before I learned that it was a poem, and the poem said: Thousands of gold and jade feet, thousands of waters to the wind and clouds. The independence of the mountain is high, and the sea is dusk.

Xi Zhen carefully tasted the poem and said: "This poem is actually a very superficial poem, and it does not have much literary weight, why is it here? and who wrote this poem? I have never read it. So he transcribed this poem, thinking that Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai would ask at that time.

Xi Zhen asked He Xiong to bring Pei Yun and Pei Feng over, and the four of them sat together, Xi Zhen sat down and said: "I didn't want to tell you about today's events, but since we are a whole, we don't want to hide it." Seeing that Xi Zhen had never been so serious, the three of them knew that it was a big deal, so they didn't intervene and waited for Xi Zhen's next step.

Xi Zhen looked around at the three of them and said: "This map of Cixi clouds and mountains, I have always only felt familiar to me before, but today I realized the truth in it." We all think that the cloud mountain map of Cixi is a legend, but it is not. Because this picture makes us focus on Cixi County, Ningbo Prefecture, but it is not. When I first came out of the rivers and lakes, I wandered around Yuanzhou Mansion and knew that there was a village and town in Yuanzhou Mansion, which was called Cihua. There is a stream in front of Cihua Town, which is a branch of the Yuan River, and the local people call it Cixi. ”

Speaking of this, Pei Yun suddenly exclaimed, "I see. ”

Xi Zhen looked at Pei Yun, and Pei Yun said: "The scenery depicted in this picture is not Cixi County, Ningbo Prefecture, but Cixi outside Cihua Town, which Uncle Shi just said?"

Xi Zhen smiled and nodded, thinking that this son was really talented and intelligent. Therefore, he said: "What Pei Yun said makes sense, I felt that this scene was very familiar when I first saw this map of Cixi clouds and mountains. Today, I finally figured out the reason, this is providence. Then he said: "In the near future, we will go to Yuanzhou Mansion, and our whereabouts must be kept secret this time." In order to cope with the inconvenience on the road in the future, Pei Yun and Pei Feng, the two of you must step up your time to practice and improve your strength. I want to go to Lord Huang Zicheng, and I still have some doubts. ”

He Xiong kept throwing admiring glances at Xi Zhen, Xi Zhen felt it, and he didn't bother to respond, just put away the picture. instructed Pei Yun and Pei Feng to say: "Although your brother and sister have made progress in kung fu, there is still a long way to go. In the future, we may face even more dangers, and you will have to be my right-hand man at that time, so you will have to work harder. Especially Pei Yun, your internal strength has always been your shortcoming, and Senior He's internal strength is also very suitable for your cultivation, so don't let down Senior He and me. ”

When He Xiong heard Xi Zhen praise him, he was even more happy, and hurriedly pulled Pei Yun to practice martial arts. Pei Feng asked Xi Zhen: "Uncle, my brother is still too impetuous sometimes, what should I do, please show Uncle Shi." ”

Xi Zhen sighed lightly: "It would be nice if your brother was half as stable as you, and I think your brother will not give your master a headache." ”

Pei Feng pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Uncle Shi has insight. ”

Xi Zhen said very seriously: "You prepare, accompany me to Lord Huang's mansion later." ”

The two came to Huang Zicheng's mansion, because the Huang Mansion has regulations, Xi Zhen's visit can be directly welcomed without a report. The little people in the house also recognized Xi Zhen, so Xi Zhen did not report it and went straight inside. Huang Zicheng was busy with official business, and when he learned that Xi Zhen was visiting, he immediately put down his official business and greeted him with a smile.

After greetings, Xi Zhen took out the poem he had just copied and said: "Lord Huang is very knowledgeable, knowledgeable from the past and the present, Xi Zhen has something unclear today, so I came here to ask for advice." I wonder if Master Huang knows who wrote the poem?"

Huang Zicheng took the poem, recited it twice and said: "The young man is very knowledgeable, why be modest at this moment." This poem is the first time the old man has read it, there is nothing special about this poem, it should be written by an anonymous essay, there is no characteristic, and there is no literary merit. ”

Xi Zhen asked Huang Zicheng to think again. After Huang Zicheng read it several times, the words were the same. Xi Zhen's heart became clearer and clearer. "Shaoxia came here for this poem, I don't know what this poem means?" Huang Zicheng felt that Xi Zhen was not a Meng Lang person, so he asked casually.

Xi Zhen said: "I don't have any other intentions, the juniors came here today just to inform Lord Huang that the juniors will go to Lord Huang's hometown Yuanzhou Mansion in the near future." I wonder if Lord Huang is with you?"

Huang Zicheng was overjoyed when he heard this: "Yuanzhou Mansion has beautiful mountains and clear waters, and it is also the hometown of the literati. The old man has been away from his hometown for decades, and he wanted to be with the young man, but now there are many things in the court. His Royal Highness is young, and the old man can't leave if he wants to, but if the young man is not too troublesome, please help the old man bring some things back to his hometown, and the old man is also grateful. ”

Xi Zhen promised and said goodbye after the date agreed with Huang Zicheng. Out of the gate of the Yellow Mansion, Xi Zhen and Pei Fengxi went straight out of the city. came to the City God Temple where Han Santong saved him and sat down, as if he was waiting for someone.

Pei Feng was puzzled and asked, "Uncle Shi, this City God Temple is desolate and has no incense, do you want to wait for someone here?"

Xi Zhen nodded, and felt bored about waiting time, so he taught Pei Feng to practice Tai Chi swordsmanship. When the practice was in full swing, the sky was dark, and a voice said: "I am still half a bucket of water, but I teach my apprentices." ”

Pei Feng was immediately alert, protected his body with his sword, and kept searching with his eyes. Xi Zhen didn't raise his head, looked at the direction where the voice came from, and said disdainfully: "I am half a bucket of water, but I am willing to teach." What about you, known as the Cloud Chasing Sword, famous in the rivers and lakes, but there is no half-apprentice to inherit your mantle. Now they come to me, and they are not ashamed. ”

This is, a slender voice and shadow appeared at the gate of the City God Temple and said angrily: "Okay, you kid, is it that the apprentices you taught are also so big and small?"

Pei Feng immediately put away his sword, bowed down and said loudly: "Disciple Pei Feng, meet your uncle." The name of the master and uncle shocked the rivers and lakes, and the disciple admired it tightly, and now I see the true face of the teacher, and the disciple is fortunate to have three lives. ”

Han Santong walked slowly, picked up Pei Feng, nodded with a smile and said, "What a good girl, speaking makes people happy." It's a pity that I didn't have any gifts today, so I'll give you this short sword, so I should be a gift. After speaking, he took out a short sword and handed it to Pei Feng.

Pei Feng didn't dare to take it, Xi Zhen said: "Then take it, the elder will give it, you can't give it." Pei Feng caught it and gently drew out the short sword. Before it came out of the sheath, it felt cold. When Xi Zhen and Pei Feng saw it, they couldn't help blurting out: "Good sword." Pei Fengru has received a treasure, and he is very grateful.

Han Santong looked at Xi Zhen and said, "When I saw your mark, I rushed here, say, what's the matter with asking me to come." ”
