54. Old but not old

The down-and-out scholar stood at the door, peeked out, and saw that the masked man had left, he walked out of the room with a wine jug in one hand, and then asked in the voice of the abbot of Tianhong: "What kind of people are the nine evils of Xinjing, worthy of praise from the old monk and promote for them." ”

The abbot of Tianhong said: "The donor doesn't know, this Xinjing Nine Evils, ruthless, cunning and cunning, both, this big man who was shocked to death by the masked man is the head of the nine evils, called the big-headed snake Huarong, the second two-headed snake Zhou Tai, the third place evil star Chongjun, the fourth white flower snake Feng Yi, the old five head snake Xiao Zhan, the old six flat-headed snake Xiao Tian, the old seven-four-legged snake Sun Sa, the old eight days evil star Guo Bei, the old nine ugly and eight monsters Lu Shun. ”

Miss Jie said disdainfully: "These nine evils don't have any amazing abilities, even the boss can't withstand a blow from others, it may be terrible to listen to the name, and it is not surprising that martial arts are not surprising." ”

Abbot Tianhong said: "Miss Jie has not fought with the masked man, I don't know how far his skill has reached, if he has fought with him, I know that Lao Gao is not boasting about the Nine Evils." ”

Miss Jie pursed her lips and said: "The masked man's sneak attack just now, although the strength is very violent, but it is not rare in the sky as described by the abbot, and it is not so powerful in the ground." ”

Master Tianhong saw that Miss Jie was young and vigorous, and he didn't want to argue with her, so he nodded and followed her tone, and said: "Lao Wei has never fought with the Nine Evils, he only listens to the legends on the rivers and lakes, maybe the rumors are not true, and they are not necessarily. ”

The down-and-out scholar laughed loudly and said: "The old monk is in the martial arts, and he can be regarded as a leader in the martial arts, and the alliance leader they worship will never be more prestigious than the old monk, what is there to be domineering." ”

Master Tianhong shook his head and said, "Lord Bi, don't wear a high hat for Lao Ke, Lao Ge is a monk who has lost his hair and cultivates, and this kind of high hat is definitely unstable to wear." ”

Abbot Tianhong paused slightly, and said: "If the rumors are true, the alliance leader they worship is really a great old devil. ”

Miss Jie sneered, and said disapprovingly: "The characters in today's martial arts, my master told me very clearly, I haven't heard of it, and there are more amazing characters than the master, I'm afraid that the abbot was frightened by the masked man, and when he saw the well rope, he thought it was a snake." ”

She doesn't know the severity, she will say whatever she thinks, she doesn't think about it in her heart, these words are good and bad, if you change someone else, you really can't bear it, fortunately, the abbot of Tianhong is an old monk with a deep Taoism, and he knows that the girl is young and vigorous, so he hears it in his ears and doesn't care.

The down-and-out scholar lifted the wine jug, put his mouth to the spout, drank it for a while, wiped the wine on his lips with his left hand, and said in a suspicious tone: "It's sad that there are more powerful characters than my brother in today's rivers and lakes?"

Master Tianhong said: "The old brother of the donor, I don't know which old man is hidden in the world, the old man can't draw conclusions, who is powerful and who is old?"

Jie girl Gege smiled for a while, looked at the down-and-out scholar, and said, "Look at your appearance and your character, it is very commensurate, but listen to you." ”

The down-and-out scholar laughed loudly, touched his chest, and said: "This sentence of the girl really speaks to my heart, I have the name of a scholar, but not the reality of a scholar." Not at all. ”

Miss Jie raised her eyebrows and said, "Isn't what I said right? Brother is brother, why do you have to add an old word, how cheesy and ugly this is!"

The down-and-out scholar nodded, and said again and again: "Yes, yes, the girl doesn't know, my brother who has forgotten his old friend is at least fifty or sixty years older than me, if you don't add an old word, although it sounds good, it is disrespectful." ”

Miss Jie sneered and asked, "How old are you this year?" The down-and-out scholar said, "This year is the year of destiny." The girl said, "Hearing you say this, isn't your old brother more than a hundred years old?"

The down-and-out scholar nodded again, and said: "How old my old brother is this year, I can't figure it out, when he first met and talked to me, he was at least eighty or ninety years old, and I have been friends with him for thirty years. ”

"Especially no matter how windy, snowy and cold weather, he is always such a single long shirt, a pair of bare feet, that long shirt, I have not seen him change it for fifty years, always like that, neither a little greasy, nor a little wrinkle. ”

Miss Jie smiled slightly arrogantly and said: "What you said is too real, people don't see old age, maybe he has a way of maintaining health, but a piece of clothing, no matter how good the material, can't withstand fifty years." ”

Abbot Tianhong said: "It's not an exaggeration to say that the benefactor is very likely, because some strange people in the mountains and fields cherish their own things very much." ”

Miss Jie shook her head and said: "You are talking about the sky, I don't want to believe it, there are many changes of clothes, each one is worn in turn, maybe it is not easy to break, only one piece of clothing can be worn for fifty years without breaking?"

The down-and-out scholar diverted the topic and said: "Believe it or not, we don't have to make such a pointless argument, but ask the old monk to tell me who the leader of the alliance they worship?"

Abbot Tianhong said: "I heard that it was a heavenly evil that caused a lot of trouble in the rivers and lakes decades ago. The down-and-out scholar said: "Isn't the heavenly evil imprisoned? Why does it appear in the rivers and lakes again?"

Abbot Tianhong nodded and said: "What the donor said is right, at that time, the heavenly evil made a big fuss in the rivers and lakes, and was imprisoned by a strange person, and the appointment period was one and a half Jiazi, and after many years, I am afraid that it is overdue." ”

Miss Jie smiled: "After being imprisoned for ninety years, it is to reappear in the rivers and lakes, and I have become an old man." What's so scary about that. ”

The personality of the down-and-out scholar is very strange, it doesn't matter what happens, but he only hates people to say that he is old, and the girl is a taboo against him, and Zhengse said: "Jiang is old and spicy, what great ability do you have, dare to say that old people can't do it." ”

"What skills can you try to know?" Listen to it. The down-and-out scholar smiled slightly, and said calmly, as if he didn't care about Jie Qingzi at all.

Although the down-and-out scholar has never studied with a teacher, his elder brother is Fei Pingtao, one of the eight hidden, and he meets once a year to pass on a set of martial arts, although he only teaches one set of martial arts, it is still the best in martial arts.

Miss Jie's long sword rolled out a cold light and stabbed at the down-and-out scholar, the down-and-out scholar did not move to the side of his upper body slightly, and the long sword stabbed against the sleeve of his coat, and the girl Jie's heart was shocked, and she took a step back, looking at the down-and-out scholar in a daze.

But the down-and-out scholar laughed and said slowly: "Girl, you might as well try what you have learned, I will never fight back." ”

These two sentences only made the Jie girl jump up and said, "Look at the sword!" and "cut the grass in the wind" to bully and swing the sword forward, and the abbot of Tianhong hurriedly stopped her: "Jie girl must not be rude." ”

Jie Qingzi suddenly retracted his momentum, and replied solemnly: "It is he who deceives people with his martial arts, so I can be blamed!"

The down-and-out scholar raised his eyebrows and said: "You have such a stubborn personality, fortunately, you met me, if you were someone else, you would have to learn a good lesson today." ”

Just as Jie Qingzi was about to speak, Mo Dao suddenly walked down from upstairs: "Don't quarrel with the two of you at this time, those two masked people don't know what the situation is." Abbot Tianhong also said: "Yes, Jie girl, your senior brother was kidnapped by another masked man, and I don't know what the situation is yet." ”

When Jie Qingzi heard this, he couldn't help frowning: "Master, my senior brother was really held hostage by the masked man?" The down-and-out scholar responded: "Girl, after you went downstairs, your senior brother followed directly, and as soon as he came down, he was dragged to the opposite room by a masked man who suddenly flashed in, and the big monk and I quietly entered the next door." ”

"We eavesdropped on the conversation between the masked man and your senior brother, and we knew that the masked man was actually your senior brother's sister, they had been separated for many years, and there was a misunderstanding between them in words, but it seemed that they were childhood sweethearts, and they would not turn their faces and conflict, but we were afraid that you were in danger, so we came over. The down-and-out scholar continued.

At this time, the frightened shopkeeper also woke up, listened to these people talking, hurriedly got up, stood up and said: "The slender masked man asked for wine and food, but before it was fried, he paid and left with the son, and when they left, they said don't fry it, they won't come back to eat." ”

When Jie Qingzi heard this, she immediately frowned, and couldn't help but feel sour in her heart, and secretly thought: Senior brother and I have been classmates for ten years, but I didn't expect that after seeing his sister, I didn't even say hello, and left directly, thinking of this, her heart only felt empty and disappointed, and her two big round eyes blinked, and then two lines of sad tears flowed.

Mo Dao saw that Jie Qingzi suddenly cried, a little overwhelmed, and the down-and-out scholar also secretly thought: Miss Jie was so stubborn just now, and now when she heard that her senior brother was gone, she actually cried sadly, a woman's heart is really unpredictable, I knew this, I shouldn't have looked for her to be happy just now.

But no matter how sophisticated the down-and-out scholar is, he didn't guess the reason why Jie Girl was sad, and the abbot of Tianhong saw Jie Qingzi like this, sighed and said: "Jie girl, please rest assured, presumably Brother Ling will not be in danger, let's catch up with it now." ”

Although Abbot Tianhong has experienced an accident, how can he understand the reason why Miss Jie is sad and crying, she is not worried about the safety of her senior brother, but because she is sad that her brother is too ruthless, and when she saw Shimei, she actually threw herself out of the clouds, not to mention the amorous Jie girl, even if she changes a woman casually, she can't bear this kind of ruthless blow.

Miss Jie suddenly raised her head and replied a little desolately: "Abbot, life and death are his business, so we don't have to chase him." Mo Dao heard what Jie Qingzi meant, and he smiled slightly: "Jie girl, even if we don't chase them, we can't stay here forever." ”

"If you have something to do, I want to go back to the Heavenly Sword Pavilion alone and tell the master everything I have seen. Jie Qingzi said lightly, the abbot of Tianhong and the down-and-out scholar glanced at each other, and they didn't know how to persuade them.
