149 Wudang Yushu (27)

Wu Shuangliu ran like an amnesty, and because he ran too quickly, he fell to the ground several times, turned over and got up and stumbled and fled, for fear that Yushu would regret it.

Yushu watched Wu Shuangliu disappear into the forest, and saw that he was in too much of a hurry, and he didn't even have time to pick up the double knife. I was stunned for a while. He said: "Wu Shuangliu may not go back to see that beast, even if he sees him and relays what I said to him, how can that beast be obedient and obedient to Wudang, if he will do this, it will not cause today's situation." Mo Nian thought again: "You can not want Wudang's reputation, but you can't not go without revenge for my senior brother's revenge! No, I have to find him in person." ”

He had made up his mind, took up his sword, and ran into the city. He carried a sword and went crazy looking for three days in the city of Beijing, he had a lot of old acquaintances and old friends in the capital, heard about this, and immediately mobilized the disciples in the sect to search together, but dozens of miles in the square garden of Beijing, if one wants to hide, even if he digs the ground three times, he may not be able to find it, and he has gone to all the places that can be imagined, but he has not found any clues.

During this period, Yushu returned to the "Juying Hall" to inspect several times, but saw that the Zhu Gate was locked, the huge Juying Hall was empty, and the traces of the previous fight were still faintly visible, but he did not clean up the dishes. Based on this, it is conceivable that no one has been here since Tang Wenhe fled that night.

Yushu thought that looking for it like this would be tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, but Yuxiu's corpse coffin was still parked in the backyard of the inn, and it really couldn't be stopped for long. Only back to the inn. In the past few days, the righteous people in the rivers and lakes of the capital heard the news of Yuxiu's death, and the people who came to mourn were endless, although Yuxiu had a reputation in the rivers and lakes not as loud as Yushu, but he was a big disciple of Wudang, and the high martial arts were also famous in the rivers and lakes, and there were not a few people who admired him. In addition, most of them came to the jade tree, so the backyard of the small inn was full of paper, incense and candles.

Xun Yuhe and Luo Feihe were busy greeting the guests who were paying tribute, and on the other hand, they remembered the jade tree, coupled with sadness and grief, they didn't close their eyes for a few days, and they were already haggard and not human. Yushu returned to the inn and told them about the search. Looking at the coffin and everything in the mess in the courtyard, he said, "Since your master has passed away, you should let him be buried in the ground." Wudang is thousands of miles away from the capital, and the road is rugged, why don't you cremate your uncle and bring it back to Wudang for burial, can you two take a look?"

This is the first time in many years that Yushu has consulted the two for their opinions. Xun and Luo Erdao glanced at each other and said in unison: "Everything is under Master's orders!" Yushu nodded and said, "Since you have no objection, send the body of the master to the suburbs for cremation, bring the ashes back to Wudang, and take revenge slowly." ”

Several people rented a carriage, pulled Yuxiu's coffin to the outskirts, opened the coffin lid, and took out Yuxiu's body. Xun and Luo Erdao gathered the ashes and put them in the prepared urn. The two cried again, Yushu also secretly wept, and after everything stopped, they set off to rush back to Wudang.

This time, four people went to Beijing, and only three came back, plus an ash altar. Along the way, Yushu was in a heavy mood and rarely spoke, he didn't speak, and Erdao didn't dare to speak. The three of them only hurried away. The closer you get to Wudang, the heavier your mood becomes. Yushu recalled that he went to Beijing this time, and planned to bring Tang Wenhe back to Wudang smoothly, at least he could be executed on the spot in the capital according to the door rules, but because of his own benevolence, he made an unforgivable mistake, and he really deserved to die to thank Yuxiu. I also thought that I was the head of the martial arts, and I actually taught a rebel like Tang Wenhe, which is really a shame in my life.

On this day, we will enter the territory of Hubei, and it will take another four or five days to reach Wudang Mountain. It was getting late, and the three of them arrived at a market and found an inn to live in. When the shopkeeper saw them dressed as a Taoist priest and holding a long sword, he guessed that it was probably the Taoist leader of the Wudang faction. The Wudang faction is chivalrous and righteous, not only in the rivers and lakes has a high reputation, but also in the folk influence is not small, many poor people have received the grace of Wudang, so the reputation is passed on by word of mouth, therefore, all Taoist priests have a high status in Hubei, quite respected.

The shopkeeper saw that the three Yushu were extraordinary, so he came out to greet him in person. He led the three of Yushu to sit down at a table in the center, and said with a smile: "Please ask a few Taoist masters what they want to eat, and the small shop will try its best to satisfy them." Although Yushu and the others were hungry and hungry, they had no good appetite for many days because they were in a bad mood.

Xun Yuhe said: "The shopkeeper, just give us a few plates of vegetarian dishes, seven or eight steamed buns." The shopkeeper saw that he was holding an ash altar in his hand, and everyone had a sad look on their faces, thinking that something dead had happened, so he didn't dare to say more, and ordered Xiao Er to prepare according to his words. After the three of them had eaten, they took a short rest and then set out on their way again. In this way, at noon on the fourth day, we arrived at the foot of Wudang Mountain.

Yuxiu's death has long been spread in the rivers and lakes, and everyone knows about it. Wudang Mountain, including Yufeng, has already known, knowing that today's head and two apprentices will arrive as scheduled, and have already led the disciples to set up a spiritual shed in the Wudang "Sanqing" hall.

After the three of Yushu arrived, everyone greeted them, and when they saw Yuxiu's ashes altar, they cried for a while, and the sound spread for miles. On Wudang, Yushu told the whole story to Yufeng and other high-ranking people in the faction. Xun Yuhe and Luo Feihe also told the other disciples about this trip, and everyone was angry and scolded Tang Wenhe. According to Taoist customs, he made a ritual for Yuxiu for a few days, and then sent it to the back mountain for burial.

Then, Wudang announced to Wulin that Tang Wenhe would be expelled from the door wall and ordered to be killed. For a while, there was a lot of discussion in the martial arts, and there was a lot of noise.

The Wudang disciples' hatred for Tang Wenhe has reached the top, and the day after the three Yushu returned to Wudang, before Yuxiu fell to the ground, more than ten Wudang men took the initiative to ask for help, asking to go down the mountain to kill Tang Wenhe to correct Wudang's name and avenge Yuxiu. Due to the strong demand of the people, Yushu agreed to let Yuchen, who was the best martial artist among the second-generation disciples, lead nine people. Three months later, Tang Wenhe's shadow was not found, and the ten people returned in vain. Yushu and Yufeng discussed, Xun Yuhe and Luo Feihe each took twenty people, divided them into two groups, and went down the mountain again, four months later, the two groups returned one after another, and Tang Wenhe was still nowhere to be seen. In this way, he continued to send people down the mountain, and his footprints were almost all over the north and south of the river, and Tang Wenhe seemed to have evaporated from the world, and there was no more information.

That year, in Guilin, Guangxi, Yushu was also on the way to find Tang Wenhe, and met the third prince of Zhu by chance, which made that short period of master-apprentice relationship.

In this way, the disciples of Wudang searched for it in the rivers and lakes like a marquee, and also entrusted their fellow Taoists to investigate together, and they searched for a total of three years, but they finally couldn't get any news. Helpless, he had to put it on hold for the time being, but the Wudang disciples did not dare to forget this hatred for a day.
