Volume 1: Seven Killings and Breaking the Army Chapter 18 A Night Visit to the Sword Pavilion
(2,000 words)
Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan accompanied the two noble ladies to start dinner, and that night Chu Xiaoting made the parents of the two sons of the Fuzhong Steward Branch, the Gao and Zhang families were overjoyed, and the original intention was to send the son to the Hou Mansion to read with Hou Zi and be familiar with each other, and now this situation, the result was very unexpected.
Kaesong Captain Gao Jinrui rarely retired from military affairs temporarily, idle at home, but also refused to let go of his skills, stayed in the room day and night with a few mothers-in-law and aunts to practice fighting room skills, heard the people outside the door say that the son did not return, so happy that he almost rushed out of the room in disheveled clothes, or a few aunts and wives were quick to stop him from dressing, so as not to lose etiquette. After that, he personally entertained the Hou Mansion who delivered the letter to run errands, and also sent a few heavy yellow things. Although he is only a lieutenant, he does not have to deign to flatter a small servant of the Hou Mansion, he is overjoyed, only to feel that his cub has climbed the sycamore branch, and the future is bright, and sooner or later he will be able to soar into the sky.
Zhang Tianfeng is a state, and there is a humble subordinate in the house, although this person is from the Shenhua Hou Mansion, but he holds his own identity, lives in a high house and reads literature and cooks official business, and does not meet in person. After the tea ceremony, I heard that the eldest prince was able to stay in the Hou Mansion for the night, and hurriedly quietly made the master in the ward house. Zhang Tianfeng was overjoyed and silent, and finally only said lightly to disturb Mrs. Hou Gui'an......
Gao Guifu is certainly restrained, but he eats a lot, he chewed and slowly swept away half of the dishes on the table, so in the eyes of Chu Xiaoting and Feng Dongyan, this child is not afraid of people when he is organized, and he is quite cute.
Zhang Qiguan can be called tall and thin even if he is placed among his peers, and the amount of food is naturally greatly reduced, and his family has been a poetry heirloom for generations, and the most important etiquette rules.
There are ten dishes on a table of eight immortals, which is not extravagant, but the chefs hired by the Hou Mansion have extraordinary skills, and the ordinary dishes that they like to see have evolved through the chefs' skillful hands, they seem to be the same, but they taste ten times more delicious?
How well-behaved these two people usually are, how well-behaved they are at the moment, Feng Xingyu saw it in his eyes, secretly snickered, and thought: "It's just a clever ghost, he has a seven-trick and exquisite heart, and it can be said that he can be easy to pretend to be obedient." I can't see that the dead fat man is usually naΓ―ve, and his demeanor is full of recklessness and rudeness, and at this time, he can also pretend to be a new bride's obedient appearance, there are really many strange things in the night, and you can see ghosts in the middle of the night!" Thinking that he still remembered this mortal saying he heard when playing with the students, Feng Xingyu smiled even more.
After dinner, the candles of the rich and noble are always bright, and there are many happy things to do at night.
Feng Xingyu said goodbye to his mother Chu Xiaoting and aunt Feng Dongyan, and walked outside the Star Curtain courtyard with Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan. Chu Xiaoting and Feng Dongyan are like glue, and their sister-in-law is like siblings.
The three villains walked all the way, Feng Xingyu was accustomed to the flower stands on his walls and various bright and dark corners, but Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan couldn't help but tremble, always feeling that a monster would pop up unexpectedly somewhere, blocking the way and eating the three of them in one bite.
There are two passages in the small courtyard out of the star curtain, one is the gorgeous cloister that covers the ice and snow in winter and blocks the scorching sun in summer, the top of the cloister is laid with glazed green tiles, two rows of vermilion lacquer pillars stand on both sides, the two sides of the cloister are beauties to lean on, every ten steps are placed in a resting pavilion, when looking up, the small caisson is exquisite and complex, the painters and craftsmen have drawn colorful gongbi patterns and allusions everywhere. The sandalwood plank that is not painted under the foot is paved, the bottom is the earth dragon fire road, the brick cavity burns into the heat in the severe winter, and transmits to the wooden board on the top, the corridor is not only like a warm spring, but also the sandalwood aroma lingers and volatilizes, and the luxury is by no means imaginable by ordinary people.
The cloister is located on the left side of the courtyard, leaning against the female wall, forming an arc leading to the exit. At this time, the copper hook on each pillar is hung with a lantern to draw the yellow moon of the jade rabbit, and it must be very convenient and bright to walk into.
However, Feng Xingyu did not take this sidewalk, and took the two of them out of the side of the corridor steps and walked on another path to enjoy the flowers and scenery on weekdays. This sheep intestine trail is circuitous, there are countless places that are raised and set low, even the fragmented stone slabs laid in the flat place are uneven, although there is no mountain-building chiseling pond in the place where it passes, but in order to climb high and look at the tree, several dry bridges are also built plainly.
Chu Xiaoting rarely went out at night, so the maids in the courtyard never set up candle lighting on this road, Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan embarked on such a difficult road for the first time in their lives, and the night was dim, it was inevitable to stumble and suffer.
Feng Xingyu has never known how to wait for people slowly, he has always been surrounded by maids and servants, how could he ever take care of anyone?
Gao Guifu was paying attention to the potholes under his feet, but Zhang Qiguan, who was parallel to him, didn't take long to mess with his fingers, and once poked under the armpit of Gao Guifu's chest, Gao Guifu jumped up all of a sudden, both shocked and painful, and glared at Zhang Qiguan viciously, but his fierce appearance did not last long.
I saw Zhang Qiguan pointing to his lips, making a silent gesture, and then pointing to the women's wall more than twenty steps away. At that time, the clouds were heavy and the moon was dark, and a few small shadows with strange appearances walked on the top of the female wall, black about the size of a newborn child, but with a long body and short feet, the long tail behind him was actually longer than the body, no matter whether it was walking or wheezing, there was no sound at all.
Gao Guifu had long been nervous in his heart, for fear that this Hou Mansion would really be as secret and terrifying as the legends in the outside world, guarded by ghosts and gods, and infested by spirits. was frightened by Zhang Qiguan like this, and when he looked at it, he also felt that this thing had to be an elf.
Feng Xingyu walked out of the boss for a distance, only to feel that the footsteps and fragmentary chattering behind him were quietly drowned out, so he turned around, but saw that the two of them stopped there and did not leave, and pointed and trembled, looking both ridiculous and suspicious.
"You two hesitated, what are you doing?" Feng Xingyu only spoke in a normal tone, and did not increase his strength to speak, but Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan were like lightning strikes, and they jumped away when they heard the sound. Feng Xingyu was shocked when he saw the two of them, and he was also a little stunned in his heart, wondering if he was assassinated again in the mansion, and he could avoid the eyes of the secret sentinels and the swordsmen everywhere?
The two of them pointed to the east wall, Feng Xingyu raised his eyes and couldn't help but laugh dumbly.
Feng Xingyu took out a bone flute from his sleeve pocket, this flute is shorter and thinner than an adult's little finger, if it weren't for the four small holes engraved on the flute body, it could only be called a whistle. Feng Xingyu was not proficient in music at this time, but the bone flute was played by his lips, and it was quite presentable, and a few fingers of one hand jumped like flying, and a simple and dexterous rhythm jumped out.
When the black shadows at the head of the wall heard the sound of the flute, they actually jumped off the female wall, lined up, and followed the sound.
Zhang Qiguan and Gao Guifu were still frightened in their hearts, but when they saw Feng Xingyu's confident appearance, they barely restrained themselves from running without turning around.
The shadows approached and identified the number five. Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan looked at each other, what kind of demon spirit it was, it was originally five strange cats. This cat is body hair alone and ordinary domestic cats are thousands of miles apart, not any kind of black, white and yellow, but brown and yellow background color, there are many black and white longitudinal lines on the back, like water clouds in the sky, in addition to the back, the body is also black and white black spots and white lines, especially the tail black and white two colors are the most distinct. The head and calves are short, the body is long and hairy, and the tail is large and long, which is a few points longer than the body.
They lay in rows, with their front paws propped up, and sit on the grass, waiting for the piper's command. Their pupils, which had coalesced into a vertical line during the day, dilated several times in the dark, and the pupils occupied almost the entire socket. Despite being domesticated since childhood, they still have the wildness of a forest in their veins.
It's just that no matter how peculiar they are, after all, they are still a few cats, Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan were suddenly frightened in their hearts, and they listened to Feng Xingyu explain: "These spiritual creatures are cloud cats raised in the house, born in the smoke and miasma of Nanyi, carefully trained since childhood, and their minds are like people. The female dependents in the house and some hidden realms, the guards and eye children are inconvenient to move around, and the cloud cat, whether it is smell, sight or hearing, is far beyond ordinary people, if it is just an ordinary long pest, rat and scorpion, without the owner's help, they will scramble to be a snack. If it is a fire or an enemy, they can also inform or alert the cat attendant. β
Feng Xingyu waved his hand, and several cloud cats rushed up to the female wall and continued to patrol and walk.
The three of them walked out of the small courtyard of the star curtain, and it was still Feng Xingyu who took the lead, and Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan followed behind with two farts insects.
The Hou Mansion in the night is like a giant stretching out its limbs, the place it embraces is like a sudden expanse several times, the scenery within reach during the day is far away, and the extreme eye can only see the faint outline, just like the ink-colored clouds covering the eyes, the shadows are everywhere, and there are black shadows hidden in the eyes, which teach people to be close to each other.
Although Feng Xingyu chose a dark and calm road to walk according to his temperament, even if he walked into a brightly lit place, he had to walk quickly under the eaves at the foot of the wall, only teaching Gao and Zhang to complain in their hearts, but they didn't dare to say anything.
In this huge mansion, there are no groups of servants with them, and they are still frightened during the day
Fearful, not to mention the dark night when you can't see your fingers? In addition, the children are innocent by nature, and they are somewhat aware of the gaze cast by the stalking place in the house, and they feel that the dark and dark places are strange and suspicious.
Occasionally, I see a night watchman who changes candles and adds oil, or a big girl, standing under the lamp and opening her eyes in a daze, such a usual scene will also make Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan's scalp numb.
Finally climbed a mountain made of dirt and propped up to the Sword Pavilion, Feng Xingyu shouted: "It's here!"
Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan looked at the sound and looked away, and saw a behemoth towering in front of them, as tall as a mountain, stacked like a tower, and it was impossible to see through whether it was five or seven floors in the night. Each layer of the Sword Pavilion has eaves and tiles, and the tiles are all covered with green glazed tiles, which are not expensive, and they are coincidentally painted under the glaze layer with a layer of luminous stone grinding and manufacturing paint, and the blue color is displayed in the night. In the eyes of Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan, it was a terrifying sight of green light. Coupled with the cold sword qi that was faintly oozing out of the pavilion, Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan had a cold battle together.
The door of the pavilion was wide open, such a place where treasures were hidden, but the door was deserted, and there was no one who was half a guard, only two pavilion beasts under the steps of the door. But looking at the description of the appearance of the two, it is really difficult to iron a "Rui" word, only to see the stone statue on the left is a unicorn standing up by a person, although the hands, feet and body are covered with scales, compared with the human body is still very similar, but the head is extremely abrupt and huge, full of fangs as sharp as steel nails, and the eyes are hollow like a pool of stagnant water. On the right is an old Jiao, with two large horns on the top of his head, as long as a snake, lying on the ground and dozing, and his expression is lifelike.
The lights and candles in the attic poured out from the inside, illuminating the two stone beasts with a mixture of light and dark, facing the three of them, most of them were in shadow, and their eyes seemed to be erratic, as if they had come to life.
Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan glanced at each other, and the sound of swallowing each other's mouth was clearly audible. Feng Xingyu snapped his fingers softly and rushed into the gate of the Sword Pavilion.
Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan had no choice but to cross the threshold above their knees and enter the Sword Pavilion.
The ground floor of the Sword Pavilion was originally the most expansive, but as soon as Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan stepped into the pavilion door, their eyes hit a large whitewashed wall, which was built straight to the dome, and seemed to be a load-bearing wall that replaced the pillars. As for why it was built at the entrance point, Zhang Qiguan guessed that it was to hide the sight of outsiders peeping into the pavilion.
Feng Xingyu rarely waited at the bend of this wall, Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan followed in a row, and when they arrived in front of him, Gao Guifu smiled, and was about to say something to relieve the dullness and chill in his heart, but he heard Feng Xingyu say with a straight face: "Follow me!"
Gao and Zhang didn't dare to disobey, and followed him along.
It turned out that this wall had a gap in it, and after turning in, I saw another wall hitting it head-on, it was like an alley, but the space was embarrassing, and you could touch the wall with the palms of your arms open. The four walls are painted with black patterns like water waves. The three of them walked only eight or nine steps, Gao Guifu turned his head to look back, but he was no longer the entrance that he had turned in.
Feng Xingyu folded in to the left again, and Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan followed him to find that the room was also embarrassed and narrow, but the top of his head and the sides were replaced with blue paint, interspersed with slightly lighter and brighter green squares, which was more disturbing than the previous black and white colors.
After a while, an entrance appeared on the left, and the red wall inside was like a fire. It's just that Feng Xingyu ignored it, missed the second entrance along the way, and when he reached the third place, he stepped in.
After this, there are more turns, almost every five steps there is a fold, sometimes on the left, sometimes on the right, and the red road under your feet does not go straight ahead, but occasionally leads directly to the left and right, but the color does not change.
Gao Guifu was already dizzy, and he was only looking forward to falling into another color realm as soon as possible, getting rid of the fiery red and dazzling red light here, and the partial birth Feng Xingyu seemed to be reluctant to give up on this color, but turned a blind eye to the yellow and blue colors on the left and right.
Until the fire is paved, a road has drawn a watershed, this side of the carriage is as red as fire, and that side of the carriage is as pale as earth.
At this time, Zhang Qiguan was abruptly happy, it turned out that he had been suspicious in his heart since he entered the blue passage, but now he has proved what he thinks, and he has a breath in his chest that does not vomit or feel unhappy, and he can't help laughing loudly: "The boundary here originally followed the transformation of the five elements. The five colors of white, black, blue, red and yellow correspond to the fire and soil of gold, water, wood, water, and wood, and the dead wood to help the fire, and the embers turn into dust, which is one of the five elements. β
Feng Xingyu nodded, but there was a playful and naughty smile on his face, and said: "This is indeed a Five Elements Maze Array, you have already seen the clues, the next road should go?"
Zhang Qiguan was stunned by a question, he just guessed the source of the formation, but how could he know the changes in this formation, he must know that the five elements have their own life and death, it all depends on the subjective choice of the person who arranges the formation, and even does not need to follow the old rules from time to time. For example, now in the dirt lane, if the road is born, then the earth is wood, and the road is the earth and water, but the people who set up the formation let themselves do their best, and they insisted on setting the right road in the fire and gold, but the people who were fascinated by the formation did not take him.
Therefore, the joy suddenly withered, and Zhang Qiguan said dejectedly: "I am not very proficient in the Five Elements Sense, or Brother Yu, you will lead the way!"
Gao Guifu likes to see the clever ghost ugly and hit the wall, and thinks: "I was born with a pair of sharp teeth, and my mind and intestines are shorter than others, so I can't fight with the clever ghost! Fortunately, Brother Yu is my savior, the nemesis of the clever ghost, see that this kid still dares to shake the ink that is less than half of his belly?"
In fact, this five-element array is the most discipline-abiding construction of the Shoucheng faction, the five elements in the formation are traceable, although Zhang Qiguan has been smart since childhood, familiar with the scriptures, but rarely involved in the side of learning Yiyi, can be speculated that this array involves the five elements of Shengke, is already the best among children of the same age.
Feng Xingyu is well-behaved and lovely in front of his parents and elders, but his nature can't get rid of the child's playfulness and stubbornness. Therefore, although the Sword Pavilion is where the sword and heavy weapons are hidden, it can't stop the little marquis from insisting on breaking in.
The guards guarding the Sword Pavilion did not dare to disobey the will of the little marquis, so they had already explained the righteousness and disposition of this array, and personally led him back and forth several times until the little marquis was familiar with it. inevitably injured the little marquis by mistake, and even relieved all the mechanisms in the formation. Therefore, Feng Xingyu made fun of Zhang Qiguan, but in fact, he laughed at fifty steps and a hundred steps.
The three of them zigzagged and raced in circles, and after a moment and a half, they finally broke out of the maze and approached a pedal ladder made of mahogany in the center. Feng Xingyu took the lead in climbing the ladder, and Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan climbed the ladder with them.
When he arrived on the second floor, he saw a bright golden light in front of him, and Gao Guifu wiped his eyes for a while before he could see the furnishings on the floor. However, the more you see it, the more surprised and shocked!
There are no less than hundreds of hanging sword wooden frames here, one sword at a time, the sword is gorgeous and exquisite, and what is even more staggering is that there are hundreds of three-foot sword bodies, which are actually poured with gold. The whole body is yellow and radiant, and the eyes of the straight people are shining.
Zhang Qiguan and Gao Guifu both looked shocked, the difference was that Gao Guifu's eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait to drag a few handfuls home, but he felt different. I only felt that in the past, I heard my father, who was a driver in a state, mention the official benefits of the fiefs in various parts of the empire, saying that the Shenhua Marquis Mansion, which ruled the three states of Yanlong, was rich and rivaled the country, Zhang Qiguan was skeptical at the beginning, thinking that the Shenhua Marquis was comparable to a god and a man with a clear nature, and he would never do such an unbearable act of filling his own pockets and scraping yellow and white things. At this moment, it really subverted the Qingyang realm in Zhang Qiguan's little heart.
There's no maze here, and there's no guard to guard it. Feng Xingyu was accustomed to this landscape, and he didn't look squarely at those yellow golden swords, and his footsteps were unhindered and walked towards the wooden ladder leading to the upper floor.
After walking away for a while, I heard the fat dun Gao Guifu muttering behind his back, obviously he was very obsessed with these yellow things.
Feng Xingyu was sharpened to the root of his ears, so he secretly told this layer to dismiss him: "The second layer of the Sword Pavilion is furnished with a long sword cast in gold, but although the gold is luxurious, it is soft, it is okay to kill people and cut meat, but it will curl the blade and lack the edge when cut into the bone, so it is not practical to cast a sword. These thousands of catties of gold are forged into a long sword, just to hide one of the real swords! This sword material is taken from the essence of the golden sea, according to ancient records, the essence of the golden sea is extremely rare and strange, this thing has the sharpness of gold and iron, the growth of spring wood, the agility of flowing water, the invasion of beacon fire, and the accumulation of thick soil five characteristics, it has quality and intangible, if you can know the Lord, it is not only an indestructible weapon, but also a solid armor!"
Gao Guifu smacked his tongue and sighed that the world is really strange and existential. Zhang Qiguan heard that the Marquis of Shenhua spent thousands of dollars to hide treasures, instead of following the example of the greedy eunuch to sell his wealth for pleasure, he felt that the Marquis of Shenhua was really lost in the world, and regretted that he secretly slandered the Hou Ye in his heart, and he didn't think about how to get the gold and treasures. Zhang Qiguan is a young ghost, smart and reasonable, but there is a pure and pedantic in his bones, he worships Shenhuahou almost like a god, and naturally everything is far-fetched from the heart.
This layer of hundreds of golden swords does have a reason to cover for the essence of the golden sea, and one of the other functions,
Feng Xingyu didn't say a word. The original intention of casting the golden sword was to reward military merits, but in these years, no one has been awarded the title of a general from the barbarian tribes in the south and the lion powers in the north, and no one under the tent of the Marquis of Shenhua knows that the golden sword is waiting. How much military merit does it take to be worthy of the standard of the bounty golden sword in Shenhuahou's heart? Any golden sword given will require millions of lives of the people of Li to bear!
Above the second floor is the third floor, where the silver light scales are even more stinging in people's eyes. Many two-foot silver swords were drawn by silver wires, hanging down from the dome of the attic, as if suspended in the air. The window in the pavilion was slightly open, and the many two-foot short swords that could not be counted did not collide with each other, but only swirled slightly from side to side, throwing pieces of silver scales into the room.
Gao Guifu snatched Zhang Qiguan and Feng Xingyu and pierced into the silver sword forest. Zhang Qiguan knew that Gao Guifu thought that there was another peerless sword hidden with countless silver swords, and at this time, he wanted to take the lead in finding the treasure and let people boast about it.
Zhang Qiguan glanced at those brand-like silver swords, and immediately understood in his heart that it was not what Gao Guifu wanted, so he tentatively said to Feng Xingyu: "The style and arrangement of these silver swords should have another meaning, and they must not be consistent with the use of the lower level golden swords?"
I only heard Feng Xingyu say lightly: "There is also a sword hidden here." This sword embryo is more precious than the essence of the golden sea, what it is and what its name is even I don't know, I just listen to the foolish uncle who forged the sword with the name of 'Mithril', which refers to the sword embryo. He exaggerated the power of this sword, and that set of rhetoric was too illusory, and I couldn't believe it in my opinion. β
Zhang Qi was suffocated, and the silver sword was made in the shape of a long card, hanging four feet above, didn't it have another meaning?
Fat Dun Gao Guifu approached to observe the silver sword, and saw that the middle of the sword body was engraved with words, which were the names of some people, and several of them were still a little familiar, but he couldn't remember them for a while. After turning a silver sword engraved with "Li Kuang", Gao Guifu saw another silver sword with three words engraved on it, which was his father's name "Gao Jinrui".
Gao Guifu is honest and honest on the outside, but he is actually quite talented, at this time, when he saw his father's name carved on the blade, he didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse. I was nervous in my heart, and I didn't dare to show my scheming on my face, so I smiled and said, "Brother Yu, why is there my father's name here, and so many names, what are they engraved on the silver sword?"
I just thought that if it was a disaster, I would also rely on this friendship to try to resolve it in Xiaohouzi.
Feng Xingyu said vaguely: "You don't understand what the inner meaning says to you, it's not beautiful to leak it to the outside without knowing it, you just need to know that this move is beneficial and harmless to your family, and the things here can't be described by you, me, and the fourth person outside of the chess view!"
Gao Guifu smiled, a big mouth opened on his round face, revealing a mouth full of white teeth, and he couldn't stop nodding.
Zhang Qiguan scoffed at Gao Guifu's flattering and smiling appearance, put aside his face and didn't look at him, and followed Feng Xingyu's pace to the fourth floor.
The fourth, fifth, and sixth floors of the Sword Pavilion are not like the first, second, and third floors, and these three layers have no mystery and ingenuity, but they are just where the collection of gentlemen's vessels is located.
After watching the many famous swords on the fourth, fifth and sixth floors, the rivers and lakes in Gao Guifu's heart floated, and the blood of chivalry and righteousness and sword fighting was ignited. Those old people in the rivers and lakes have passed away, and the ancient swords that are still in the sword are still there, all of which have left the softness and pride of their own rivers and lakes.
The life experience of the master of the ancient sword in the interpretation is wonderful, and the writing of the account is neutral and upright, without partiality, and even Zhang Qiguan, who has no yearning for the reckless rivers and lakes, has also been touched.
Feng Xingyu, Gao Guifu, and Zhang Qiguan walked on the wooden ladder to the seventh floor, and the wooden ladder stage fit seamlessly with the buttress, and the noise was very small when walking. A nightingale fell outside the Sword Pavilion, perched on the eaves and pressed the corners, she was locked in the cage for a long time, and at this moment she was free, she was raising her voice and singing happily, her voice was tactful and crisp, very beautiful.
The sound of the nightingale singing is high and low, not as if it was born, but as if it was trained by others. Feng Xingyu heard the warbler's cry, and only said lightly: "It's the second watch." β
Gao and Zhang suddenly, after entering the cabinet, they saw the news, only to feel that they had opened their horizons, and they forgot themselves for a while, but they didn't expect the time to be in a hurry, and suddenly it was the time when the night was quiet. A little tiredness crept up into his eyes, tugging at his upper and lower eyelids, just wanting to put people to sleep.
Gao Guifu is a simple and strong person, and the right person to watch the sword and touch the sword arouses his heart and blood, and naturally the sleepiness is all gone, and when he remembers the hour, the sleepy insects all pounce on him, and his huge figure walks with some frivolous steps. However, then Fat Dun hit a spirit, and a little tiredness escaped.
It turned out that the seventh floor was also the top floor, and here there was a withered old man, his eyes sunken, his long gray hair, standing like a wooden pole, motionless, as if he had no life. The place where he stood was near the wooden ladder, and Gao Guifu climbed the stairs and almost collided with him head-on.
Gao Guifu was suspicious of the old man's life and death, and suddenly heard his words: "These two little brothers are friends of the prince?"
The man's voice was hoarse and shriek, and he didn't seem to have spoken for a long time. Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan looked at each other like the old man, and found that his eyes were dull and gray, as if he was suffering from an eye disease. But he can stare at people, and he doesn't seem to be completely blind.
Feng Xingyu has a majesty that cannot be violated in front of his subordinates, but Mrs. Hou Chu Xiaoting is also committed to teaching her son the simple truth of treating people with humility and order. Feng Xingyu said lightly: "There is no need to maintain it for the time being, Fu Bo has the right to go down!"
The old man with eye disease, whose original name was Fu Yuan, answered yes and slowly touched the stairs.
When the gloomy old man's figure completely disappeared, Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan relieved themselves of the weight of their shoulders.
The two of them returned to life, and their eyes immediately looked away, but they saw that the twelve small arches on the top floor of the Sword Pavilion were placed in twelve corners, and the arches were made of iron birch, and the wood faded, and it seemed that it had been some years. Each of the wooden platforms has a sword box, and the wall behind the sword box is hung with fine fine paintings.
The remaining boundaries are not idle, and the walls are all built with wooden lattices for storing the sword scriptures and sword classics, which are the unique experiences of the sword masters or the giants of the sword path in the past dynasties. Gao Guifu and Zhang Qiguan have not entered the sword path, so they naturally look at these thin or thick papers with an ordinary heart. At this time, I flipped through it casually, and many difficult words and theories emerged one after another, and the two had to throw the book back to the shelf.
Came to an arch to observe, the sword box was covered with thick yellow satin, and a long sword was lying in the box. The style of the long sword is decent, the two pieces of wood sandwiched by the grip are rubbed smooth and shiny, and the sword spike tied to the top of the sword also looks old and light-colored, and the sword body is still sharp and tough, and it also shines with a faint blue light. When the old man who was suffering from eye disease was there, Gao and Zhang couldn't feel the cold sword intent on the sword, at this moment, the sword qi was less suppressed by external force, and the two were too close, only to feel as if there was a basin of cold water poured down from beginning to end, and they fought a few cold wars in a row.
Gao Guifu sneezed four or five times in a row, and praised as he played: "Hache ~ good sword...... Hatcher ~ Good Sword ...... Hatch ~ Good Sword ......"
Zhang Qiguan's foundation is not as strong as Gao Guifu, and his face is already pale at this moment, and the upper and lower rows of teeth are chattering, and he has no interest in ridiculing his opponent.
Feng Xingyu is no different, the outpouring of sword qi here has no effect on him at all, although the love between the three of them does not increase or decrease, he and Gao Guifu are more intimate than Zhang Qiguan, Zhang Qiguan can still tease at will, so he is even more afraid of fat dun's heart, and teased: "If you don't use the sword, how can you tell if the sword is good?"
Gao Guifu's tongue was vague, but his eyes were firm: "Intuition!"
Feng Xingyu was bluffed by Gao Guifu's rare rigor, and he was speechless for a while, and reached out to close the gloomy wooden sword box. As soon as the cold in the Sword Pavilion dissipated, Gao Guifu immediately let out a shouting and cheering, and played a set of hard fists in the army taught by his father to expel the remaining cold, while Zhang Qiguan grabbed his shirt tightly and remained silent, his face still pale.
After playing a set of hard fist styles, Gao Guifu was alive again, one arch after another looked at the past, Zhang Qiguan barely walked behind the two, and after a while, his body gradually warmed up. After all, he was young, and there was no surging aura in his body for the sword intent to cause a common tide, so he was very lightly eroded by the sword intent and sword qi.
During this period, he walked through a few ironwood arches, and the sword weapon inside was not as hostile to outsiders as the "Qingluo Flying Feather", Zhang Qiguan had not yet recovered, so he hurriedly glanced over, and only remembered a few sword names such as "Spirit Wing", "Fu Grant", "Jing Jiang", "Little Curved Eyebrow", etc.
Finally came to Gao Guifu's heart in front of the snow sword arch, the sword box here is naturally empty, but there is a human-height fine painting hanging on the wall, the painting is Mrs. Hou Chu Xiaoting in snow clothes, waist wearing snow to accompany her husband Shenhua Hou Feng Feng military parade scene.
