Cumulus Mountain towers into the clouds, the mountain range stretches for several miles, the peaks and peaks are undulating, the ravines are vertical and horizontal, the mountains are full of lush green plants, there are clouds in Xiu from time to time, look at it from afar, the smoke is misty, hazy a piece of verdant, the Cumulus Mountain is lined like a fairy mountain outside the world, ethereal and unpredictable, it really responds to the four words of "danger, strange, male, show".

Although the depths of the mountain range are deserted, there are waterfalls and strange rocks, strange flowers and trees, and the scenery is very beautiful. The mountains on both sides of the waterfall are embraced, there are streams bubbling from the mountain streams, and occasionally there are birds and beasts wandering, or drinking water and frolicking, or waiting for opportunities to hunt, but it can also be regarded as calm and peaceful.

Along the mountain range along the trend of the stream, there is a valley downstream, called Yuhua. Although the name of the Feather Valley is feathered, it is disappointing that the origin of its name is not because there was really a great immortal in the valley, but because of a bird called Hinayu.

This bird is very interesting, born in Cumulus Mountain, but grows in the Feather Valley, and only in the Feather Valley will it give birth to feathers. If any of the young feathers want to be a little lazy, they can only resign themselves to their fate as a bald bird.

However, the Feather Valley is not disgraced by its name, the four seasons are like spring, the scenery is beautiful, if there is really someone who happens to find it, it is estimated that nine times out of ten it will be mistaken for a break-into paradise.

In the early morning, the mist fades, and the dew on the green leaves is crystal clear and silently slips down the edges of the leaves. The cool breeze allows the dew to complete a graceful arc in the air, and finally merge into the stream with satisfaction, bringing small ripples.

The joyful birdsong of "Cuckoo, Cuckoo ......" echoes in the empty valley, adding to the tranquility of the valley.

"Squeak~" A bamboo door was gently pushed open, and a slight sound echoed in the quiet valley, making the quiet valley more popular.

Subsequently, a handsome young man of seventeen or eighteen years old walked out of the bamboo house. The young man's complexion is slightly dark, his eyes are deep and clear, his facial features are well-defined, and his slightly childish face has perseverance and composure that are rare for ordinary people.

Closing the door slightly, the boy turned and walked to the clearing not far away.

The open space is open on all sides, and there are 36 plum blossom piles of one person high in the middle, which are distributed in the form of eight trigrams, each of them has the thickness of the bowl mouth, and a shelf is erected next to the plum blossom pile, and the knife, gun, sword, halberd, axe, axe, stick, stick, hook, fork are erected...... Everything you need, everything.

After a little preparation, the boy jumped and stepped on the plum blossom pile. He took a piece of black cloth from his waist and blindfolded his eyes, meditated and condensed, and the young man silently recited the mantra in his heart. Seeing the slight movement of his footsteps, he began to toss and turn on the stake. At the beginning, you may see a figure, but the speed is getting faster, and the wind is blowing under the feet of the young man, and the figure turns into an afterimage. The body is as light as a feather, the body is like a swimming dragon, and the plum blossom piles arranged in a mysterious way are as stable as stepping on the ground for the young man, and they come and go freely.

In the bamboo house in the distance, an old man looked at the young man's tossing and turning figure from a distance through the bamboo forest, stroked his long beard, and nodded with satisfaction.

After about half an hour, the morning sun rises and shines into the quiet and peaceful valley.

"Squeak~" The door of the bamboo house was opened again, and this time it was a bald boy who came out of it. The young man looked slightly smaller than the previous one, looking dumbfounded, and wearing a coarse linen dress was forced by him to wear an inexplicable sense of joy. He closed the door and stretched out in the bright morning light, then yawned long and rubbed his sleepy eyes, and then began to regain his soul. Scratching the back of his head ignorantly, the young man looked at the young man in the open space and said, "Senior brother got up really early!"

This young man's name is Lin Hao, although he looks stunned, but he is a martial arts wizard born with divine powers, and he has a simple heart and is loyal. And the previous young man's name was Chen Huan, although he was not as born as Lin Hao as he seemed to be practicing martial arts, his talent was also very good, and he stepped into the eighteenth day after tomorrow at the age of eighteen, no matter where he put it, he was considered a top genius.

Chen Huan happened to finish practicing light exercises at this time, glanced at the junior brother standing next to the bamboo house, and pouted helplessly, "Don't come to practice yet, beware of the master punishing you." ”

"Oh!" Lin Hao grinned, replied with a simple voice, and walked quickly to the clearing. When he arrived at the open space, he saw him casually pick up a large copper hammer weighing hundreds of pounds from the weapon rack, and he played with vigor.

Chen Huan watched from the side for a while, and then consciously picked up a three-foot long sword from the weapon rack and waved it.

Unlike other people who use swords in the rivers and lakes, Chen Huan does not practice right-handed swords but left-handed swords. The right-hand sword is solid, but the left-handed sword is heavier and weirder, and it pays attention to surprising victory. Although neither is easy to practice, the left-handed sword is obviously much more difficult than the right-handed sword. Of course, both require a high level of awareness and unremitting effort.

The index finger and middle finger of the right hand are brought together, and the remaining three fingers are bent and pressed to form a sword finger on the ring finger...... The moves are varied, quiet as a virgin, moving like a rabbit, walking like a cloud, and a body like a snake, it really has the style of a grandmaster.

"Senior brother...... Brother, are you resting...... The master told you to come quickly. "Near noon, a young boy of about eight or nine years old came running out of breath, his little face flushed with too much running, and he was very cute.

"I see. Lin Hao answered loudly and threw the big copper hammer in his hand to the ground. I only heard two muffled bangs, and two shallow pits were immediately smashed out of the ground.

Seeing this, Xiao Tong made a bitter face, "Senior brother, why did you forget again?" Ziqi is going to fill the pit again. ”

Chen Huan glanced at Lin Hao helplessly, but he didn't say anything, cast a sympathetic look at Ziqi, and put the long sword back on the weapon rack very properly.

"Senior brother, what do you guess the master told us?" Chen Huan squatted down and began to untie the sandbags on his legs, and asked casually.

"How do I know. Lin Hao glanced at his senior brother, "Senior brother can't even imagine that he is so smart, and I can't guess this elm head." ”

Chen Huan took off the sandbag, stood up and kicked his legs, and then smiled maliciously: "Maybe the master has thought of some new tricks, isn't it like this before the master started to torture us in the past few years?"

Lin Hao felt a chill in his heart, "It should be ...... No way. ”

"Forget it, I won't tease you, won't you know when you go," Chen Huan smiled, and then seemed to think of something, and a trace of nostalgia appeared on his face, "But I don't know what happened to the child who almost frightened the master?"

"Who knows. If it weren't for him, our master wouldn't have tossed us so badly. Lin Hao pursed his lips, and then muttered: "There are so many ways to make people in my head, I really don't know how to think of it." But why can't I hate that little guy, it's really weird. ”

"Hurry up, hurry up!" Seeing that the two senior brothers were chatting with each other, Yu Ziqi urged a little anxiously, "Don't let the master wait!"

"Haha!" Seeing that his little junior brother blushed and urged seriously, Chen Huan was amused all of a sudden, "Look at your urgency, let's just go quickly." ”

Walking through a small winding path, there is a large bamboo forest in front of you, and the houses are located in the bamboo forest.

"Master!" Seeing the old man standing quietly next to the bamboo house, Chen Huan and the two said in unison.

The old man is already in his old age, but his figure does not show half of his posture, but he walks calmly, and has his own fairy wind and bones. The wrinkles on his face are vertical and horizontal, extremely vicissitudes, but a pair of eyes are restrained and sharp, as if he has read all the vicissitudes of the world, and he can see through people's hearts at a glance.

"Well, let's go into the house with the teacher. The old man stroked his long gray beard and nodded kindly.

"Yes. The two followed respectfully.

The bamboo house is not large, but it is very clean and tidy, and the house also has a unique fragrance of bamboo.

"Huan'er, Hao'er, how long have you been learning martial arts for your teacher?" the old man walked to the window, turned his back to the two of them, looked at the bamboo forest outside the window, and said calmly.

"It's been ten years. The two of them said respectfully.

"Oh, it's not short! Then do you know what martial arts are and why do you practice martial arts?"

The two of them were slightly stunned, they really hadn't thought about it.

After pondering for a long time, Lin Hao said honestly: "'Martial arts' is profound kung fu, of course, practicing martial arts is to strengthen the body, and to punish the strong and help the weak." ”

The old man turned his head to look at this loyal and simple apprentice, and nodded slightly, not surprised at all. Then he turned his head to look at Chen Huan again, "What about you?"

Chen Huan lost his usual laughter and laziness, and said with a solemn expression: "Martial arts is to stop the world and level the world, and practice martial arts, the small is to practice chivalry and righteousness, self-cultivation, and the big is to govern the country and ensure the peace of the party." ”

The old man nodded with satisfaction, his apprentice was really thoughtful, and he seemed to be casual and slow on weekdays, but he was also a well-intentioned person. He asked, "What is good and what is evil?"

"The hoe is strong and helps the weak, the one who is kind and charitable, and the one who saves the people in the fire and water is good, oppresses the people, and in the fish and meat township, burning, killing and looting are all evil. Chen Huan organized the wording and said concisely.

On the side, Lin Hao widened his bull's eyes, and said secretly in his heart: "It turns out that senior brother knows so much. ”

The old man frowned slightly, and then asked: "Is it evil for a person to kill one person in order to save a hundred people? If a person falls into the grass because he is desperate, can he be evil? If one person saves an evil person because of his good heart, and then the wicked person kills a hundred people before he dies, is it good?"

"This ......" Chen Huan was speechless, and he was speechless for a while.

The old man smiled, "There is no absolute right or wrong in the world, and there are no absolute good and bad people in the world. In addition, seeing is not necessarily true, and hearing is not necessarily believing. The rivers and lakes are sinister, so just ask for a clear conscience in everything.

"Follow the teachings of the Master. The two said in unison.

"Hmm. The old man nodded again, and suddenly said, "Have you ever wanted to take a look outside the Feather Valley?"

The two were slightly stunned, and then their faces changed greatly.

"Master, are you trying to drive us away? Is there something wrong with the apprentice? Master, if you say it, we can't change it immediately?" Lin Hao was anxious all of a sudden, and said anxiously.

After Chen Huan panicked for a short time, he quickly calmed down, only frowning slightly, looking at his teacher with a puzzled expression. On weekdays, the master would never ask like this, is it really to let us out of the valley?

The old man smiled bitterly, and the kindness on the old man's face became stronger, "The eagle must always fly high, under the protection of the master, you will never grow up." There are so many principles of conduct and behavior that the master has taught you over the years, there is nothing to teach, and how you will go in the future depends on your creation. ”

"Master..."

"Needless to say, the teacher has made up his mind. The old man waved his hand to interrupt the two of them, "You should all know the rules of the rivers and lakes, so you won't say more as a teacher." Let's go out of the valley tomorrow!"

"But the master ....." Lin Hao wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Chen Huan.

"Yes, master. He bowed his head silently, his eyes slightly red. Then he picked up Lin Hao and turned around and walked out of the bamboo house.
