Looking at the lake and mountains outside the window, the smoke waves are vast, the lotus leaves in the water are like covers, tender stamens and condensing beads, the grace is graceful, although it is not like the red lotus blooming in midsummer, the fragrance floats for ten miles, but the current scenery has made him yearn for it, only to feel that the mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River are beautiful and colorful, and the fragrance strikes people, and he can't help but recall the scenery of Luoyang again.

Scenes of the past emerge, like light and shadow through the mind, all kinds of tastes come to mind, although he was born in the family of the eunuch, but he usually likes to make friends with the common people in the market, and always feels that the laymen in the ya, the sanctimonious, hypocritical, tend to be inflammatory, and it is disgusting to be with them. On the contrary, it is not as reckless and straightforward as the rivers and lakes, and his affection is deep and righteous, which makes his father, who is a local official, very disgusted with him.

Fleeing for more than half a month, I have encountered what I have seen and heard, the people in the martial arts are sinister, and I am deceitful and the city and county government, the fake public and private people, no different, I can't help but be disappointed, but I have set foot in the rivers and lakes, it is difficult to withdraw, not to mention that the whereabouts of "Luo Shen Futu" are unknown, and I can't help but let go, and I can't help but ask myself: "Is this the greed of people?"

Perhaps, among the many living beings, there are a few people who can transcend the world, Qiao Zhen may not have thought about it, because of this obsession in his heart, he has stepped into the rivers and lakes since then, although the adventures are continuous, but it has also brought him endless troubles.

Qiao Zhen looked at the beautiful scenery outside the window, with a lot of thoughts, but the wine in his hand was a pleasant drink, and only the spirits in front of him could make him relax and forget the sorrow in his heart for a while.

Suddenly, a figure came like the wind, walking like a fly.

I saw a young man with a dark yellow complexion, about sixteen or seventeen years old, bowing to the middle-aged scholar at the wine table behind Qiao Chen's right, and said in a low voice: "Master, the matter has been done, about the second watch tonight, I will meet with the 'Jin Boss', that is, the Jinling bully, in front of Chaotian Palace." The middle-aged scholar sneered: "'Boss Jin' is up to you to take action, just to avenge your blood feud that was killed ten years ago!" Suddenly as if he thought of something, he said to himself: "If 'Boss Jin' really invited his master 'Blood Shadow Crazy Knife' Nie Zhanyuan this time, it would be a little tricky." He sighed lightly, straightened up, and walked outside, serene and free, with light steps, his feet like flowing water, and in the blink of an eye, the figure had landed on the lakeside path seven or eight feet away. I saw that the young man behind him also chased after him like lightning, and said urgently, "Master, wait for me, ......" The voice fell, and the figure was gone.

Qiao Zhen saw it clearly, and a name "Shenxing Scholar" Dai Xu couldn't help flashing in his mind. It is rumored that there is a scholar in the rivers and lakes, who is unique in the world with his "divine law", and he is considered a great power in the martial arts, and he must be this person. As for why the "Divine Scholar" appeared in Jinling City, Qiao Zhen was not curious.

After a while, Qiao Zhen got up and came to the counter, paid for the wine, and walked out of the tavern slowly, walking towards Jinling City. When I was still in Luoyang before, I had been yearning for the mountains and rivers of the south of the Yangtze River for a long time, and I was very excited to be able to stroll along the riverside and enjoy the scenery along the way.

On the outskirts of Jinling, the green mountains are surrounded by water, the blue waves are rippling, the trees are lush, the river embankment is weeping willows, and it is rare that the weather is sunny, the wind is harmonious, and there are no clouds, which makes people refreshed and comfortable. Unconsciously, Qiao Zhen came to the gate of Jinling City, through the bustling crowd, the streets were full of dazzling goods, the vendors were shouting hard, Qiao Zhen also came to be interested, take a look at it, it was not lively.

Suddenly, I saw the pedestrians in front of me scattering and avoiding, I didn't know the reason, but I heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves, from far and near, Qiao Zhen couldn't help but look up, but saw three high-headed horses galloping like the wind, the horseback was all dark blue and red striped strongsuits, each hanging a Tang knife on the waist, the three of them were all horizontal eyebrows and angry eyes menacing, all the way, the horse whip in his hand, constantly waving a sharp whistling sound.

Qiao Zhen saw that the three of them were clearly martial arts practitioners, and they were acting so arrogantly in Jinling City, so he couldn't help frowning, and his heart was furious. Just thinking about it, the fast horse on the left had already galloped in front of him, and seeing that Qiao Zhen was about to be trampled off the horse, the pedestrians on both sides of the street couldn't help but scream.

The man on horseback, instead of holding the horse back, shouted loudly, waved the horsewhip with his right hand and hit Qiao Chen, just when everyone thought that the tragedy was about to happen, they never thought that when the horse and Qiao Chen's body contacted, it seemed to be vigorously rebounded, and was thrown out five or six feet away, and the person on horseback was thrown out of the saddle, like a kite with a broken string, and fell to the ground like a kite with a broken string, only to hear a loud "boom", fell to the ground, and then saw that the horse was also broken limbs, leaning on the street and neighing.

Qiao Zhen still maintained his original appearance, standing upright on the street, and did not move a single bit.

The other two horses had galloped out of the way eight or nine feet away, and when they saw that the situation was different, they had turned back, and when they saw the tragic situation of their companions, they were furious, and they jumped up from the saddle with a loud shout, and landed in front of Qiao Chen, one of them sneered: "Can't you see that your kid is still a practitioner?"

Qiao Zhen raised his head slightly and said with a smile: "That's it, if you don't know how to defend yourself, you wouldn't be trampled to death by your horse today." ”

The man scolded angrily: "You kid is really kind, and you don't ask who we are?"

Qiao Zhen's face sank, and he said coldly: "It doesn't matter who you are, it's all the same in my eyes!" As he spoke, he shot out angrily, grabbed the big man's chest and clothes, shook it, flew out into the air, and fell next to the unconscious man just now. The rest of the people saw it, and couldn't help but secretly scream that it was not good, and hurriedly rushed out to help the two companions, and fled here in embarrassment, and did not forget to release a cruel word before leaving, saying: "There is a kind, don't go!"

Hearing the man's cruel words, Qiao Zhen couldn't help but arouse the stubbornness of Brother Gongzi, casually glanced at Fengming Tower next to him, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and chuckled: "Okay, the young master really won't leave today, if you want to see this young master, come to the Fengming Inn!"

Seeing the three of them leaving in embarrassment, pedestrians on both sides of the street couldn't help but applaud loudly.

Qiao Zhen arched his hand to the onlookers on both sides, and walked in towards Fengming Building, and the shopkeeper saw that a guest came in, so he hurriedly trotted over to greet Qiao Zhen to take a seat, and sent tea and snacks.

As soon as he returned to the inside of the counter, he suddenly heard a pleasant female voice outside the door, and called: "Xiao Er, is there a good guest room?" The voice was sweet and beautiful, and when he heard the shout, Xiao Er hurriedly greeted him, and shouted loudly: "Yes, yes, there is a good guest room!"

I saw a shadow flash in from outside the door, but I saw that the girl's eyebrows were like spring willows, her eyes were clear, and her face was delicate with peach blossoms, and she was fairy and jade. Xiao Er couldn't help but stand on the spot stupidly when he saw it, his mouth was wide open, and he was full of embarrassment.
