Chapter Forty-Nine: Youyun Villa II
As night fell, thin clouds fluttered in the sky, obscuring the half-closed cold moon. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
When I withdrew from the feast, my mind was dizzy, and my stomach felt like a river was turning upside down. I was too strong to drink, and after only drinking two small glasses, I felt uncomfortable, unlike Bailitu and Lin Nan. Forget about Bailitu, he is as strong as a mountain, and it is estimated that if he drinks all the five jars of wine, I am afraid that he may not be drunk. What I didn't expect was that this sick Lin Nan, who seemed to be weak and handsome, could drink like that. I drank two small glasses between them, and he had already made several large bowls of wine in a row with Bailitu. I don't know what kind of wine General Zuo gave us, it was unusually spicy, and just smelling it could get me drunk.
I staggered all the way back to the small courtyard of the wing, and when I passed a meadow, I couldn't help it anymore, I leaned over and vomited, just vomiting all the things in my stomach on the grass, and even the discomfort in my stomach made me feel like I was going to vomit out my internal organs.
After vomiting for a while, I felt much better, and I came to the stone steps in front of the wing room and sat down.
At this time, Lin Nan walked in from outside the arch in three steps. His face was slightly red, he staggered as he walked, he held his forehead from time to time, and he still held a small bottle of wine in his hand, and when he saw me, he smiled at me, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
He came to my side and sat down, put one hand on my shoulder, leaned over with a little white face, and said, "Brother Gu, why are you ...... Why did you suddenly get here?"
In the middle of his words, he suddenly burped, he was still a little ashamed, and quickly covered his mouth, and then looked at me and laughed, and his mouth was full of wine when he laughed. I couldn't help but lean sideways.
I was a little dizzy, and I couldn't help but smile when I looked at his drinking, and said, "I can't drink enough, so I escaped and sat here blowing the wind." ”
Lin Nan said with a smile: "What's so fun about blowing the wind, Brother Gu, why don't you play a set of swordsmanship to help the fun, and also open my eyes, how about it?"
I looked at the night sky, the cold moon was covered by clouds, only illuminating the circle around the moon, and my heart suddenly became interested, nodded, and said, "Okay!"
I stood up and came to the wing, took out the shadow chasing sword from the sword stand, took advantage of this drunkenness, came to the small courtyard, and smiled at Lin Nan who was sitting on the stone steps: "Brother Lin, look at it." ”
Anyway, I didn't look at him, the shadow chasing sword in my hand had been saved by me, and I could put on a water-clearing sword gesture, and when my whole body was full-strength, I began to dance the master's water-clearing sword technique.
The Shadow Chaser began to whisper softly in my hand, groaning with the strength and dexterity of my hand.
When I joined the Iron Sword Sect, I was only a twelve-year-old child, but now, a few years later, I have reached the age of adulthood, although I am not very old, but my body has grown rapidly, thicker than the yellow catcher in his early thirties. I think when the master taught us the swordsmanship of water, he once taught us that the cultivation of swordsmanship is outside the body, the most important thing is to cultivate the heart, if the people of the righteous way of the rivers and lakes do not have a chivalrous heart, even if the swordsmanship is powerful, it is not a good swordsman. The sword technique of water-clearing is fast, accurate and steady, which not only requires high physical fitness, but also has strict requirements for body style. Only with a strong physique, flexible body skills, and the long sword that stabs out can be retracted and released freely, is the essence of playing a good sword technique to clear water.
At this time, I jumped suddenly, and when my body took off in the air, the shadow suddenly swung his tail, and Lin Nan on the side shouted "Okay", and then I landed on both feet, my body fluttered, and my swordsmanship turned abruptly, turning from fierce to gentle.
The change of sword momentum is only when the move is exhausted, and if you grasp it well, you can catch the opponent off guard, and if you don't grasp it well, you can change from attack to defense, which I have always turned not very harmonious, far less than the senior brother. Senior brother's swordsmanship is very close to that of my master, he started a few years earlier than me, and he has been with his master for a longer time than me, and his swordsmanship is better than mine.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh deeply, and the shadow-chasing sword in my hand was also relieved.
I don't know how the senior brother is doing, is the master still angry with me, and the little brother's injury is probably healed, right?
I slowly stopped, stopped dancing my sword, and stood in the courtyard, feeling a little dazed for a moment.
Lin Nan on the side sighed lightly and said, "Brother Gu, why don't you play it?"
I danced some swordsmanship, my body was slightly sweaty, and my head was a little clear. looked at Lin Nan's appearance half-collapsed on the stone steps, smiled bitterly, and said, "It's nothing." ”
Lin Nan got up, came to my side, looked at me left and right, and suddenly smiled: "I think of your Iron Sword Sect again?"
I didn't admit it, but I didn't deny it either, at this point I wanted to stand alone, I didn't want to speak.
Lin Nan paused, and then said, "Brother Gu doesn't have to be sad in vain, when we come back from Youyun Villa, Brother Baili and I will accompany you to the Iron Sword Sect to have a look." ”
I felt grateful for a while, looked at Lin Nan and said, "Thank you, Brother Lin." ”
Lin Nan said: "Brother Gu, you and Baili saved my life, I haven't repaid it yet, what can be counted as a trivial matter, when this matter is over, we will leave for Fuzhou, hehe." ”
His face was slightly red, and he was originally very handsome, but when he laughed at this time, he had a different taste, and there was still a little bit of Langzhong breath on his body.
I thought about it for a while and said, "Brother Lin, where is the Youyun Villa?"
Lin Nan said: "West of Chenzhou City, Youyun Mountain, the whole mountain is the territory of Youyun Villa. ”
I put the shadow chasing sword on the ground, and just wanted to ask, at this time, Huang Zhutou and Baili disciples walked in from outside the courtyard gate, Huang Zhutou said with a smile: "Brother Shadow Chasing, Brother Lin Nan, why did you two come here?"
I smiled and said, "The feast is over?"
Bailitu's face was also a little flushed, and he walked up to us, smelling of alcohol, and said with a smile: "General Zuo is drunk and has gone to rest, and the two of you have not returned for a long time, and I can't help but be a little bored with Huang Zhutou and Huang Zhutou drinking, so I came back." ”
I said, "I was asking Brother Lin about Youyun Villa, so I didn't go back." ”
Huang Zhutou's face turned red, and he said with a smile: "Brother Shadow Chasing, I have ordered someone to prepare a fast horse, and I can reach Chenzhou City tomorrow, and on the way, I will tell Brother Shadow about Youyun Mountain Villa." ”
I'm going to leave tomorrow? I couldn't help frowning, this Huang Zhutou is too anxious, to track down that Cheng Fuhai needs to take a long-term view, after all, Cheng Fuhai is strong in martial arts, and Youyun Villa is mysterious, so I am afraid that it is a little rash to act hastily.
Huang Zhutou said again: "Now, let's all go to sleep, recuperate enough, and hurry early tomorrow." ”
Baili disciple shouted: "That's it, Huang Zhutou is right, now we all go to sleep, and we'll talk about it when it's dawn." ”
After he finished speaking, he and Huang Zhutou went back to their respective rooms.
I said goodbye to Lin Nan, returned to my room, put the shadow chasing sword back on the shelf, lay on the bed and began to vomit, and fell asleep unconsciously.
......
When I woke up again, it was already overcast, so I washed up and went to the yard to dance two swordsmanship. When I finished practicing the sword, the Baili disciples also got up, and we had a brief breakfast, then rode on fast horses and rushed towards Chenzhou City.
This time, we took the official road and rode fast horses, and the speed was not known how many times faster than in the mountains. Huang Zhutou can't wait for us to go, maybe we can't find the eight treasures of exquisite corals, and I'm afraid of long nights and dreams. In any case, he no longer suspected that I had stolen the Eight Treasures of Exquisite Coral, and chose to believe me, which was always a good thing.
Riding on the road, the most seen is the woods, Chenzhou has a "forest town", not a rumor, walking in the official road forest, I can better appreciate the lush forests of Chenzhou. Baili Tu and Lin Nan walked in front, and Huang Zhutou and I followed behind them, and Huang Zhutou told me a lot of things about Youyun Mountain.
Youyun Mountain is located in the west of Chenzhou City, and is in contact with Guiyang Supervisor. Hengzhou South Mountain, vast and thousands of miles, is bordering Chenzhou, and the mountain range extending south from Hengzhou is separating Chenzhou City from Guiyang Prison, Youyun Mountain is a dangerous mountain in the mountain range from north to south. Youyun Mountain is located in the chokehold, although it belongs to the territory of Chenzhou, but it is also in the territory of the barbarian. The barbarian is an extremely rare race, rarely in contact with the outside world, most of the barbarian people live in the valley caves, the Great Song Dynasty's attitude towards the barbarian is to turn a blind eye, let it develop and reproduce on its own, and explicitly order the states and counties not to interfere. The governor of Chenzhou strictly ordered his subordinates not to set foot in Youyun Mountain Villa, because this Youyun Mountain was inhabited by barbarians.
The barbarians lived in the valley and did not have to pay taxes to the Song court, so they were also called "outsiders" by many people. This is not to say that the barbarians do not have contact with the outside world, but they rarely come into contact with outsiders, and only do some business with ordinary merchants at the border. And Youyun Villa was built at this boundary.
But as soon as he mentioned Youyun Villa, Huang Zhutou suddenly shook his head, and only told me that Youyun Villa was too mysterious, and everyone who entered Youyun Villa died, and he didn't know anything else.
Seeing Huang Zhutou frowning, I smiled and said, "Has no one ever been able to come out of the Cloud Villa alive?"
Huang Zhutou said: "That's not it, a few people from the Sutra have come out of Youyun Villa alive, but after those people came out of Youyun Villa, they all became crazy without exception. ”
I was stunned and said, "Someone poisoned someone?"
Huang Zhutou said: "It's not that he was poisoned, but he seems to be scared crazy." ”
"Scared crazy?"
I couldn't help but be a little surprised. Can scare people crazy, what is in this Cloud Villa?
Huang Zhutou didn't say anything more after saying this, and added a whip, leaving me behind. He didn't say anything more to me, probably because he was afraid that I would be timid, so he changed his mind and turned back halfway.
I didn't ask anything more.
In the evening, we came to Gaoting Town, ready to rest for the night in Gaoting Town. Gaoting Town is a small town outside Chenzhou City, from here it takes less than half a day to ride a horse to reach Chenzhou City, but it is not far away. But Lin Nan really couldn't stand tossing and turning on horseback, and vomited several times along the way, and his face had already turned pale.
Huang Zhutou had no choice but to settle down in Gaoting Town and take us to the Changlai Inn.
