The old man sighed, thinking that if he was young and strong, he might be able to break open this door, or when he went up the mountain, he might bring the iron axe used to chop wood and split the wooden door, and he would not be helpless at this time. As the two of them were thinking about going out, a steel knife was inserted through the door. Then the wooden door was kicked open, the old man and the boy stood up in panic, the boy hugged the old man's waist, the old man also protected the boy behind him, held the wooden staff in his right hand in front of him, and secretly swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, the palm of his hand was already soaked with sweat.

The wooden door flew open in pieces, and two men in black broke in. Both were dressed in black gauze. A person is short and thin, but he holds a nine-ring big steel knife, the knife light is cold, the knife rings touch, Lingling makes a sound, and wears a bronze foxy mask, hideous and terrifying. The other person was slightly tall, bare-handed, covered with a black scarf, and a red jade dragon ring hanging from his waist, tied with green silk tassels.

The short man smiled and said: "You are still an old ghost shrewd, we hid in the dark, never left, saw the old man break into the mountain gate, we followed him to this library pavilion, and really got a lot!" The tall man did not say anything when he heard this, but, two steps to the Buddha shrine, stretched out his hand to grab the jade Bodhisattva statue in his hand, and then looked back at the short man. "Now that you have the Buddha statue, you should leave as soon as possible, so as not to cause trouble. ”

The dwarf man holds the knife in his left hand, caresses the blade with his right hand, and flicks it lightly. The blade trembled slightly, and the cold light suddenly rose. "Don't worry, old ghost. The short man forced the old man and the boy into a corner, and the old man still leaned sideways with a wooden cane, and although his legs trembled and his face was afraid, he still did not abandon the boy, and the boy hugged the old man tightly. "People say. Chop the grass and eradicate the roots. This boy must be the young master of Kexue Mountain Villa. Now that you have come, you must not leave a curse. ”

The tall man grabbed the short man's left arm: "Since you have obtained the Buddha statue, why bother to destroy him all over the door!" The short man pushed the tall man open, pointed his knife at the door in front of him, and said: "Old ghost, if you leave this remnant, he is so old and already sensible, why don't you wait until he grows up to seek revenge on me!" "If you don't kill me today, I will seek revenge on you when I grow up!" The boy hid behind the old man, his eyes soaked with tears, and shouted loudly.

"In that case, how can I tolerate you!" the dwarf reached out to snatch the boy, and the old man threw away his staff, and took the boy into his bosom with both hands, and hid it in his bosom, turning his back to the man in black. These men in black were already full of blood, how could they care about killing one more person, so the short man grabbed the old man by the collar and dragged him out of the corner. The old man never thought that such a short person would have such strength.

The hand rose and fell, the knife light was thick, the knife ringed, and the old man's forearms and hands had been cut off, and the hand was still tightly gripping the boy's clothes, and the blood poured like a spring, staining the stone ground under everyone's feet. The old man's miserable screams echoed in the small stone house.

The boy was so startled that he took three or four steps back. The old man fell to his knees, his cheeks were bloodless, and his clothes were dyed red, and the short man tore at the gray hair, and stepped on his back, and with another knife, he cut off the old man's head like a mowing grass, and threw it aside. The headless body fell, blood bursting from the cavity and splattering onto the boy's frightened face. Seeing that the old man who was still his companion was already making a few pieces of minced meat, the boy's face turned pale and he didn't dare to move.

The short man wanted to raise his knife and slash at the boy, but the blade went straight to the door, and the cold light burst into flames, and with a crisp collision sound, the blade of the knife deflected, and the short man also fell to the side, took a few steps back, flipped the long knife, and plunged straight into the ground before stopping.

It turned out that the tall man untied the jade pendant on his waist, and when he was at the last moment, he threw it, hitting the tip of the steel knife, so that the long knife deviated and saved the boy's life. As for the short one, he took a few steps back, and he thought that the force was not light. The short man secretly suffered a loss, became angry, and then pointed at the tall man with the knife, and said through gritted teeth: "Old ghost! If you don't solve this kid again, you and I can't afford to blame him!" The tall man's voice revealed a trace of firmness and anger: "Qing Xuanqi! I will bear all this! I have protected this son's life, if you have to kill him, you can take the heads of the two of us and go to the top to invite merit!"

The young man became more and more annoyed, his body was already trembling, he held a knife in his left hand, clamped it in the tiger's mouth in his right hand, the blade was forward, and he had already put on a posture: "Old ghost, if this is the case, don't blame me for not thinking about brotherhood!"

The green fox held the knife in his backhand, stabbed downward, tapped his right foot, flew up, and the tall man rolled on the ground for a week, and slapped it in the back, and the green fox was not ambiguous, and raised his hand to stab, but instead of aiming at the tall man, he slashed and walked straight, the purpose was to take the boy's life.

The boy stood there in horror, forgetting to dodge. In his hurry, the tall man stretched out his hand to resist, but the young man did not accept it, so he slashed the tall man's left hand. Although the tall man was injured, he still did not lose his moves. The two of them, a knife and a palm, have been back and forth for more than 30 times, and there is no victory or defeat on the surface, and the tall ones know that this stone house is narrow and difficult to perform, and this green knife is ruthless, short and sensitive, and these many close fights have been difficult for them to parry.

Then he grabbed the blade of the knife with both hands, and his eyes opened violently, and his feet stepped on the ground, trying to pull out the blade from the hands of the tall man, but it was difficult to pull it out. The tall man had white smoke in his palm, and the internal force spread all over his body, pouring into his palms, and there was a crisp sound of "breaking-", and the blade was broken.

The green fox just wanted to pull out the blade, but the strength had time to remove it, the blade was broken, he took a few steps back, his back hit the stone wall, his left hand was still holding the handle of the knife, and his right hand was pressed on his chest, it seemed that he was struggling a lot, and he only leaned on the side and gasped: "Old ghost, you actually used this trick to break my blade, I'm afraid you won't feel good!" It turned out that the move just now not only broke the blade, but also a wisp of internal force entered the body of the blade with the blade.

The tall man's left hand was red with blood, and he took a few steps back, and a mouthful of blood spurted out and dripped down the veil of the mask. Busy locking his acupoints, only to stop vomiting blood a little. Seeing that the young man had no power to pursue for the time being, he grabbed the boy, clamped him around his waist, grabbed the secret passage, and flew away.

Qing Xianyi hurriedly sat down and exercised, and did not chase after him. After a long time, the relative internal force was discharged, and he suffered a lot of losses. Qing Xuanqi looked at the red jade dragon ring, jade bottle and jade Buddha statue thrown aside during the fight, carefully put them away, and tied them to his side. "Old ghost, even if you have an old relationship with Kexue Villa, now that you have buried such a curse, it will be a great disaster in the future! You and I are afraid that we will not be able to escape the catastrophe!"

The tall man rescued the boy from the villa, and he was already wounded, and he vainly urged the internal force to use light work, although he temporarily sealed the big hole, there was no danger of life, but it was also extremely depleted. Halfway up the mountain, it is no longer difficult to persevere. Then he put down the boy and meditated on the side to heal his wounds.

The boy stood aside, his fists clenched: "You killed my father and mother, killed so many senior brothers, I will seek revenge from you when I grow up!" The tall man did not respond, for a long time, but replied: "You have to practice martial arts." ”

"Let him go!" The two looked at the girl in white who was rescued by the old woodcutter, the bandage on the girl's body was untied, and she held two short-pole silver guns in both hands, and she was still panting secretly. "Senior Sister Liu!" the boy wiped a handful of tears and ran towards the girl, but was blocked by the girl.

It turned out that the old lady took care of her carefully, and took some decoction, and she was already able to move, although she had not yet recovered, she couldn't take care of so much. The old lady couldn't stand the girl's soft grinding and hard bubbles, so she accompanied the girl up the mountain together. The girl walked faster, and the old woman walked behind with a cane. "Why don't you see that old man in my house?" the old woman panted and climbed up the mountain. The tall man glanced at her and said lightly: "It's already minced meat." "Huh?" the old woman sat down in fright, beating her chest and weeping.

After breathing for a long time, the girl's silver spear was also placed away for a long time, but the injury had not healed, and she did not dare to move lightly. "Who is the girl, give me a name. The tall man stood up and hugged his fists. "Second disciple of Kexue Mountain Villa, Liu Yuanjun!" the girl raised her eyebrows, already ready to fly. "The silver dragon breaks the flying snow, and the white-clothed man protects the cold mountain," the black-clothed man said slowly, "It turned out to be the flying snow silver spear Liu Yuanjun who had left a name in the rivers and lakes at the age of sixteen. Unexpectedly, it was a woman. "It turned out that I was in a hurry to go up the mountain, and my clothes were full of blood, but Liu Yuanjun had changed back into women's clothes. "Your injuries have not healed, and you are not my opponent, so it is better to leave quickly with this child.

After saying goodbye!" Liu Yuanjun knew that this was not the time for revenge, and he would not chase after him, so he went up the mountain with the old man and the boy to collect the body of the old man and bury it properly, and did not mention the rest.

The funeral was over, and the three of them worshipped. Liu Yuanjun bowed to the ground, and bowed to the old man's grave three times, thanking him for saving his life. He kowtowed to the old lady three times, finished the salute, got up and arched his hand: "If it weren't for the eldest lady and her husband who were saved with all their hearts, Yuanjun would have died long ago."

It is even more difficult to preserve the only bloodline of this Kexue Mountain Villa. Now that I am fortunate to have my life back, and I have been blessed to save the young master of my family, it is really ashamed and sad to affect your family. Although the man in black has gone now, he can't stay here for a long time, and Yuanjun has found a place to go.

The two of us are willing to take you as our biological mother, and I hope that you will go with us, and we will wait for the rest of our lives, so as to repay the great kindness!" The old woman stood in front of the grave for a long time, and the day changed suddenly, but she knew that it was a fateful arrangement. Gai is a lifelong punishment for his husband and wife who left their parents' family business and fled here.

The mourning candles are swaying, and the white paper is flying. The old woman sighed and said, "Everything in the world is already doomed. When you and I meet, there must be a fate. I will not reciprocate the favor of saving you. The two of you will make a good living in the future, which is already a reward for my husband and wife.

Now that the old man has left me, I am old, and I just want to spend the rest of my life in this lonely grave. You two go. Liu Yuanjun didn't prevaricate too much, leaving only a little silver taels and a piece of ancient jade for the old lady to use in the future. After everything was done, he led the boy to the Lu'an Mansion thousands of miles away.

That Lu'an Mansion is an important city in the south, known as "flying wet lights, Lu'an drunk spring breeze". It is thousands of miles away from the Yaoye Mansion where Kexue Mountain Villa is located. Lu'an City has a beautiful environment, simple folk customs, developed economy and is very prosperous. The two drove for dozens of days and finally arrived. "Senior sister, why are we coming to Lu'an Mansion?" The boy's hand tightly grasped the corner of Liu Yuanjun's clothes, and at this time, Liu Yuanjun had already changed into men's clothes in order to act cheaply.

"Come to Lu'an, find an old master. "Why are we looking for him?" "Only he can help us and revive Kexue Mountain Villa." Also, when you are outside, you have to call me brother or senior brother. Liu Yuanjun frowned and said no more. The boy knew that although his senior sister was only four years older than him, she had always been strict, so he didn't ask too much, lowered his head and stopped talking. Liu Yuanjun clasped the boy's hand, hid the two guns in his clothes, and the two entered the city.

This Lu'an Mansion is prosperous, the so-called bluestone street is wide and wide, and the road is full of pedestrians in a hurry. The elixir delicacies floated for thousands of miles, and the ancient music was drunk in a dream. The spring breeze lingers and sends affection, and the flying flotsam is red and dyed with brocade flowers. The most is Lu'an Fu Qianli, and the mountains and rivers are almost the same. The two of them have been around for a long time and have seen the prosperity of humanity in this world, but it is better than the ancient stack of flying snow. Before you know it, you've been intoxicated. Liu Yuanjun finally came to his senses, so he led the boy through several crowds to a pawnshop. This pawnshop hangs a plaque with a red background of jujube wood, and the big characters on it are "Rongji Pawnshop".

As soon as he entered the door, Liu Yuanjun hugged his fists and said: "I want to see Xiao Wuxian, Xiao is the shopkeeper." After a while, the door curtain was opened again, and a middle-aged man came out, about forty years old, dressed as a shopkeeper, heroic and calm between his eyebrows. Outsiders are puzzled, where does this Rongji pawnshop come from the shopkeeper surnamed Xiao?

It turns out that this Xiao Wuxian was originally a giant, with a bold personality and amiable personality, he is more than fifty years old but still in his forties, and Rong Fa, the shopkeeper of this Rong Ji pawnshop, is a friend of life and death, but this Rong has a sexual addiction to gambling, and it is so ridiculous that he mortgages this pawnshop. Fortunately, Xiao Wuxian redeemed it for him, and the two ran it together, but they did not change their name. The shopkeeper Xiao left his hand behind and his right hand in front, and he heard the words. Seeing the two of them: "What are the two sons doing to find Xiao?" Liu Yuanjun bowed and replied: "Liu Yuanjun is in the Snow Mountain Villa." Xiao Wuxian was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then smiled again, invited the two into the back hall, and put tea and snacks on the table.

Although there is a big age difference between Xiao Wuxian and Liu Yuanjun, Liu Yuanjun has been smart since he was a child, and he is mature and steady, so he does not violate the harmony. The three of them took their seats, Xiao Wuxian made a gesture of invitation, and asked: "I heard that Liu Yuanjun is not young but he is calm and reliable, and when I saw it today, it was really so." Liu Yuanjun smiled lightly: "Senior Xiao has won the award, Yuanjun just did what he had to do." ”

"What is Liu Gongzi doing here, how is your master? I haven't seen him for a long time, and I don't feel a little missing. Xiao Wuxian stroked his beard and said.

"Kexue Villa has been burned down, the century-old foundation has been destroyed, the disciples have all died in battle, and only the two of us have escaped. Master, his old man is also..."Liu Yuanjun was sad and lowered his head. "Peng-" Xiao Wuxian let go of his hand, and the teacup fell, turning into a few pieces. His whole body trembled, his eyes were red, and even his lips trembled, and it took a long time before he squeezed out three or two sentences: "Who... Who did it?" Liu Yuanjun wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said: "It's a group of people in black, with strange martial arts, ruthless, and poisoning our food first, and when we have no power to resist, they will start killing." As for which way it is, the younger generation really doesn't know. ”

Xiao Wuxian stood up with his hands in his hands, sighed, and his voice was a little hoarse and choked: "I have been friends with your master for more than 30 years, and when I was a child, I thought it was a friend of life and death. Kexue Villa has never been involved with the outside world, and there must be no grudges in the future, why did he do such a cruel thing. The hands behind his back were clenched into fists, and there was a little more firmness in his tone, "I, Xiao Wuxi, swear again that I will spend the rest of my life searching for and arresting the culprit who destroyed the door, in order to comfort your master, the spirit in the sky." ”

Liu Yuanjun also got up and arched his hand: "Thank you Senior Xiao for your kindness, but after all, this is a matter in my Kexue Mountain Villa, although you have a great friendship with my teacher, but please don't interfere." Xiao Wuxian was a little surprised, but he could understand it, so he stopped being obsessed.

"Yuanjun is here, just for one thing, hoping that his predecessors will help. Liu Yuanjun bowed again. Xiao Wuxian stopped her and saluted, and hurriedly said: "Hugh is so humble, what do you want, all I can, I will do my best to help!" "Yuanjun wants to ask you to take care of the young master, the time is right in the future, Yuanjun will come to pick it up!" It turns out that Xiao Wuxian is not only a wealthy businessman, a pawnshop shopkeeper, but also a martial arts master, proficient in music and rhythm, and has profound internal skills. Xiao Wuxian happily agreed.

In this way, although the boy was confused, he was also obedient and followed Xiao Wuxian, knowing that it made sense for his senior sister to hand herself over to him. Liu Yuanjun also explained some of his parents' shortcomings, handed over the martial arts secrets of Kexue Villa to Xiao Wuxian, and instructed him to urge the boy to practice diligently, and not accept any of Xiao Wuxian's resources. Before leaving, he looked at the boy with reluctance in his eyes, his eyes were red, and he said goodbye and turned to leave.

Xiao Wuxian felt deeply about it, and also sighed that he had such a responsibility at a young age, if the two of them walked together, the goal would be greater, and if those black-clothed people chased after him and wanted to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, the young master would definitely be in danger. In order to ensure the integrity of the young master, and he couldn't bear to involve him in hatred, he had to make this decision by shouldering the heavy responsibility of revenge. After that, Xiao Wuxian regarded the boy as his own and took him to his mansion to live with his adopted son and daughter. This is not to be mentioned later.

It's been ten years in the blink of an eye. There are constant disputes on the rivers and lakes, and even the imperial court is involved. Xiao Wuxian has already handed over the Rong Ji pawnshop back to Rong Fa to take care of, and he secretly recruits heroes and loyal people from all over the world. Although they are the first to show talents, or the court is a prisoner, an outlaw, regardless of their status, regardless of their status, the young and the old, male and female, or civil or military, all of them are accepted, so the good and the bad are uneven, and there are often people under the door who go out to do evil, treacherous and evil and plunder, so they leave a notoriety in the rivers and lakes, and regard them as killer organizations or heretical cults.

In order to calm the anger of the public, Xiao Wuxian also remembered the sincerity of refuge and expelled all the people who made trouble. Set up the Ten Ghosts Hall, promote nine people who are loyal and righteous with extraordinary martial arts, and call them the Ten Ghosts, and also set up a hall rule, the disciples in the hall can be paid to kill and hunt down the great traitors, but not kill the loyal and brave, do not kill the innocent in vain, but relieve the people. Although this is already the case, it is difficult to move the mountain of prejudice that has been established in the hearts of the people of the rivers and lakes for a long time, and it is difficult to stop the mouth.
