The white clouds fly and rain over the South Mountain, and the blue falls and the spring is idle.

The pavilion golden glow comes to the purple mist, and a cup of jade liquid stays in Zhu Yan.

Flowers welcome the white crane song fairy song, drunk willow breeze beautiful day.

Say a sentence of opening poems and limericks, let everyone see and laugh, gossip less, the book is back to business, the last book said that Ma Long was ordered by the master to go out to the street to inquire about the situation, at noon, the weather was hot, came to the teahouse to drink tea, and then stepped out of the teahouse, not bothering to step on the foot of a man sitting at the door. The man beckoned a few helpers next to him to make a move, when a woman came in from outside, about the same age as Ma Long, and sent these people away. Ma Long looked back, this girl, white shirt, white silk pants, carrying a sword on her back, wearing a cyan headscarf on her head, willow eyebrows, apricot eyes and peach cheeks, red lips, Ma Long couldn't pull it out when he saw it in his eyes. The girl stepped over and sat down at the table at the door: "What's your name, why did they beat you just now?"

"My name is Ma Long, and I accidentally stepped on someone's foot just now. What's your name, girl?"

"Haha, you ask me. ”

Ma Longxin said: I'm not asking you, who else can I ask, isn't this nonsense: "Ah, I'm just asking you." I had to take action just now, and I don't know what your name is. ”

"Hee-hee, me, you just call me Ling'er. ”

"Ling'er, this name is so nice. ”

"I listen to your accent, but I'm not a bunch of us. ”

"Oh, I'm a foreigner, and I live in Jiangxi now. ”

"You Jiangxi, what's wrong with our place?"

"That's right, I'm going to seek revenge from the Tianshan faction!"

"Ah, what kind of enmity does the Tianshan faction have against you? ”

"My parents both told the Tianshan faction to kill me, so I want to take revenge. ”

"Why did the people from the Tianshan Sect kill your parents?"

Ma Long is a sincere person, what people ask and say, just ask and answer, Ma Long told everything about his childhood and the things that his master told him. Who is this Ling'er, this Ling'er is none other than Zhong Ling, the granddaughter of Tianchi Divine Sword Zhong Boqi, that is, the daughter of Qingfeng Sword Zhong Ziyue, Zhong Ling listened to Ma Long's words, and thought to himself: It turns out that this man is the apprentice of the soul swordsman Wang Shi. In the past, I heard my grandfather say that Ximen Xue was killed by Wang Shi, but I didn't expect him to come by himself. Zhong Ling and Ma Long drank two cups of tea together, then said goodbye and left the teahouse, and went straight back to the main altar of the Heavenly Sect, and after going back, he told Ma Long that he wanted to seek revenge from the Tianshan Sect. Zhong Boqi sighed: "Hey, Huang Runbo saw a farmer holding a dragon sword on the street to sell, so he learned that Ximen Xue was killed, I flew a pigeon to ask him to investigate the matter, I didn't expect Huang Runbo indiscriminately, bloody Cuiping Mountain Majiazhai, later I inquired, Ximen Xue avenged his apprentice and Wang Shi battle, and finally died in the hands of Wang Shi, it has been 20 years, I didn't expect it! Hey, afterwards I transferred Huang Runbo back to the main altar and did not allow him to set foot in the rivers and lakes. I didn't expect that the enemy family would still come to the door now, or not, I was about to find Wang Shi to avenge my Ximen brother. Ling'er!"

"Grandpa!"

"Where are Wang Shi and that Marlon now? ”

"I stayed in an inn in the middle of the city. It may not be a few days before it comes. ”

Zhong Ziyue, the Qingfeng Sword next to him, said: "Father! As the saying goes, it is better to settle the grievance, this Wang Shi killed Ximen Xue twenty years ago, and there is a reason for it, Ximen Xue has no way to teach his disciples, Wang Shi killed his apprentice for revenge for his master, Ximen Xue does not think about his own faults, and he will be killed." ”

"Don't say it, Ximen Xue and I are friends of life and death, and this revenge cannot be avenged. You can send your disciples to the city to find out Wang Shi's whereabouts!"

Zhong Ziyue didn't dare to say much, so she had to turn around and come out, call the disciples, and pass the book to the disciples in Changbai County. Let's say that Malone walked around the street and found nothing, so he had to go back to the inn. Wang Shi asked, "What news did you hear?" ”

"Nope!"

Wang Shi was silent, and only stood up after a while, walked to the door, pushed open the window, and looked at the street, just looking at the room, two people came to the east end of the street, these two people wore green sermon robes, their heads were tied in a bun, and they carried a long sword, and they strode to the inn. These two are the disciples of the Tianshan faction, after receiving Zhong Ziyue's letter, they came to the inn to inquire about the situation, and as soon as they arrived at the door of the inn, they saw Wang Shi standing in the room upstairs, and he was opening the window to look down.

Because Wang Shi has a white mark on the right side of his face and a green steel sword on his back, these are very easy to recognize, so these two disciples of the Tianshan Sect recognized Wang Shi at a glance.

When Wang Shi saw these two people turn around and leave, he had already seen the science in his heart, and he smiled secretly in his heart: It is so fast! It seems that it will not be clean tonight. Then he turned to Ma Long and said, "Let's go downstairs for dinner," the master and apprentice came out, and next door was Qiu Xiang's room, Wang Shi shouted as he walked: "Apprentice, go downstairs to eat." ”

Qiu Xiang agreed, stepped out of the door, followed Wang Shi downstairs, and sat at a table in the middle of the room. The shopkeeper stepped forward and greeted, "A few masters, what can you eat?" ”

Wang Shi ordered more than a dozen wines and dishes, asked for a pot of wine, the three of them ate and drank, ate for an hour, and drank three pots of wine.

The shopkeeper walked to close the door, and suddenly three people came in from outside, dressed in green sermon robes, with a black belt tied around their waists, a long sword on their backs, and a bun on their heads.

These three people are the disciples of the Changbai County branch of the Tianshan Sect, and the head of the person is the helmsman, surnamed Wang, named Wang Yi and nicknamed Snow Wolf, followed by these two, the one on the left is surnamed Wei, named Wei Jin, and the one on the right, surnamed Pang, is named Pangshi. The three of them pushed the shopkeeper open and came in. The shopkeeper hurriedly greeted: "Guest officer, you are going to live in the hotel." ”

"Get out of the way!" shouted Huge Stone.

The three of them stepped to Wang Shi's table, and Ma Long and Qiu Xiang both looked at the three people in surprise. Wang Shi didn't look at it, he ate his own, and pretended not to see it.

Snow wolf Wang Yi saw that Wang Shi ignored him: "Wang Shi!

Wang Shi raised his eyes and looked, and Ma Longzeng next to him stood up: "Is my master's name also called, compare with his old man, and you don't pee and take pictures." Master play with you!"

Wang Yicang let out a loud sound, and pulled out the long sword on his back: "Look at the sword!" Wang Yi said Look at the sword, straighten the long sword in his hand, the golden snake spit out the letter, and stabbed it in Ma Long's throat, Wei Jin and Da Da Shi jumped aside. Ma Long hurriedly picked up the big board knife beside him, hugged the moon in his arms, the sword was stabbed on the knife surface, Ma Long stepped back, kicked the stool away with his right foot, the stool flew towards Wang Yi, Ma Long followed closely behind the stool, the knife fairy in his hand pointed the way, Wang Yi saw the stool smashed towards the door, the sword in his hand split Huashan, split the stool in half, the stool just fell to the ground, Ma Long's knife behind it arrived, seeing that the tip of the knife was about to stab the chest, Wang Yi put his body to the side, Ma Long's knife stabbed in the air, Wang Yi feet a little on the ground, the sword in his hand looked back at the moon, and slashed at Ma Long's shoulder, Ma Long saw Wang Yi rise up, and the sword ran to his shoulder, The knife in his hand has three rings and the moon, and the sword is opened, and he is going up and down, flying up on the table next to him, turning his body with the strength of rotation, spiraling and splitting, and sweeping the waist, Wang Yi is not ambiguous, the sword is light and agile, like a spiritual snake out of the hole, up and down, and the moves are smart. fought with Ma Long, and fought for more than 50 rounds without a winner. Saying that, Wang Yi received Zhong Ziyue's letter and asked him to inquire about Wang Shi's movements, Wang Yi let his two proud disciples, Wei Jin and Pangshi, go to the inn to look, and when the two came, they happened to see Wang Shi standing at the window, and went back to tell Wang Yi about the situation, Wang Yi said: I have heard that this Wang Shi is strong in martial arts, why don't I go and meet him, if I can kill Wang Shi, then I can make a name for myself in the rivers and lakes. Thinking of this, after dinner, he came to the inn with Wei Jin and Pangshi, and wanted to do it with Wang Shi, but he didn't expect to be in a fight with Ma Long. The two of them fought more than 50 rounds of martial arts, and it was still difficult to distinguish between victory and defeat. Wang Yixin said: I'll play some yin for you, thinking of this, the sword in his hand swept thousands of troops, Ma Long put the knife out to block, just hung up, just knocked, the two weapons intersected, the bell sounded, sparks shot out, at this moment, Wang Yi suddenly kicked his right foot at Ma Long, Ma Long Xin said: You and I are at this distance, you can't kick me with your feet. So I didn't watch out, I was secretly amused in my heart, I saw Wang Yi's right leg raised, and the tip of his right foot was aimed at Ma Long's stomach, and suddenly a steel needle flew out of his toe, and the cold light flashed, and it passed on Ma Long's stomach. Ma Long didn't watch out at all, between this lightning and fire, Wang Shi quickly picked up a plate and threw it out with his shaking hand, this plate just blocked Ma Long's stomach, and the steel needle bell shot at the bottom of the plate. This steel needle is fed with poison, as long as it is shot on a person's body, blood will seal the throat. Only then did Malone react: "Good boy, play tricks with me." ”

Wang Yi saw that the poison needle was blocked, and said in his heart: How did this plate fly over just now, it was so fast, so fast that I didn't even see it, and with a bang, the plate was blocked on Ma Long's stomach, this Wang Shi's skills are really worthy of his reputation, come on, it seems that he is not his opponent, so don't fight with him. Thinking of this, Wang Yi stepped back, stood forward with the sword in his hand, pushed away the knife that Ma Long had chopped over, and shouted: "Slow down, I have something to say." ”

Ma Long put away the knife and froze his body: "What do you have to say?" ”

Wang Yi said: "Tonight, let's go here, how about fighting another day." ”

"Okay, accompany me at any time!" Marlon replied coldly.

Wang Yi turned around and left with Wei Jin and Pangshi. The shopkeeper looked at the beaten tables and chairs all over the room, and complained bitterly. The shopkeeper shook his head, and Wang Shi smiled: "Come here!"

The shopkeeper heard Wang Shi calling him, and stepped over to give a deep salute: "What do you have to say about the guest officer?" ”

"This is fifty taels of silver, all of which will be used to compensate for the broken tables and chairs. As Wang Shi spoke, he took out fifty taels of silver in his arms and handed it to the shopkeeper, who took it with both hands and thanked him repeatedly. Ma Long said: "Master, if you want to accompany the silver, these people just now will pay for it, why should they pay for the silver." ”

Wang Shi said with a smile: "Why don't you go up to Tianshan tomorrow, and then you can ask them for money." ”

Ma Long asked in surprise, "What's the matter, are a few of the people who came just now from the Tianshan Sect?"

"Hey, I was almost killed, and I don't know what they do. Wang Shi shook his head.

Ma Long was extremely angry, clenched his fists and smashed them on the table: "I knew that they were from the Tianshan faction, so I wouldn't let him go." ”

"That's just two little minions, let him go. Wang Shi said while drinking.

Wang Shi ate a few more glasses of wine, ate all the leftovers on the table, got up and walked to the room: "Go to bed early, why don't we go up the mountain tomorrow." ”

Early the next morning, Wang Shi instructed Ma Long to buy more baked cakes and put the steamed buns in the baggage. Because the road to Tianchi is full of deep mountains and old forests. The master and apprentice rode out of the inn and walked to the east gate of Changbai County, just walked a short distance, and found that someone behind them secretly followed, Wang Shi remained silent, only pretended not to know, and walked out of the east gate to the mountain, at this time it was the weather in July, it was still very hot, if winter came, it would be snowy all over the mountain. Qiu Xiang looked at the surrounding scenery and asked, "Master, why is it called Changbai Mountain, what does it mean?" ”

Before Wang Shi could speak, Ma Long said: "This is not simple, just because this place is always snowing, and it always looks white, so it is called Changbai Mountain." Changbai Mountain, on Changbai, is a mountain that often turns white. ”

Wang Shi laughed when he heard this: "Your explanation is very vivid, but I heard the locals say that the word Changbai means that the long and white looks are kept to the white head, representing people's beautiful yearning for loyal love." In the Classic of Mountains and Seas, it is called Buxian Mountain, and the Northern Wei Dynasty calls it Taibai Mountain, and as for the title of Changbai Mountain, it is also a new name taken by the Jin people. However, this Changbai Mountain is vast, but I don't know where the main altar of the Tianshan Sect is. ”

The master and apprentice walked for a day, only to see four mountains and dense forests, no people, look at the sun to the west, Wang Shi was a little anxious, he had to quickly find a home, otherwise the dew in the mountains at night was not a joke, looking for the mountain road to go forward for more than a mile, turning the mountain col, only to see a small village, mud wall thatched huts, side by side with seven or eight rooms. "Apprentices, let's go here for the night!" Wang Shi rode a horse in front, arrived at the head of the mud house, jumped off the horse, and Ma Long helped Qiu Xiang off the donkey, and followed Wang Shi to the door of the villager's house, Wang Shi looked into the door, and saw an old lady sitting in the house, and a woman in her thirties was sitting on the wooden stool next to her, holding a baby in her arms. Wang Shi clasped his fists and saluted: "Old man!"

When the old lady heard the voice, she looked up and saw Wang Shi, and behind her stood Ma Long, and there was a girl. A little surprised, the woman holding the child also looked at Wang Shi with a look of surprise, Wang Shi said with a smile: "We are passing guests, because it is late, I want to spend the night at your house, and it is convenient for Wanwang." ”

The old lady said, "Oh, please come in." ”

As she spoke, the old lady beckoned to bring three wooden stools to the door. Wang Shi, Ma Long, and Qiu Xiang sat down. Wang Shi saw that it was still early, and instructed Ma Long: "You take the livestock to the vicinity to graze, eat some grass, and feed water." Marlon got up and went out and led the horse to the woods behind the house. Wang Shi asked, "Auntie, why don't you see a man in your family?" ”

The eldest lady said: "My old man and son have gone into the mountains and forests to hunt and collect medicine. ”

"There are several families in your village. ”

"There are three families in our village, all of whom live by going up the mountain to collect medicine and hunting, and there are also a few acres of thin land in front of the house to plant some corn and soybeans, and the year is good, and they can barely eat and wear, but in recent years, a group of bandits have come to the neighborhood to often come to the village to grab food and money. ”

When Wang Shi heard this, his brows furrowed. At this time, the old lady got up and said, "I'll cook, and you can sit down first." As she spoke, the old lady walked to the kitchen next to her, and at this time, a woman in her fifties came over next to her, followed by two and a half children, "Aunt Li, there are guests at home." The middle-aged woman, dressed in a green cloth shirt, spoke at one end and came to the door. The old lady replied while putting the cornmeal alive in the bowl, "A few guests passing by." it, have you come back with a tie? ”

"I haven't come back yet, I guess it's going to be a few days, it's so soon. The woman came to the door and looked Wang Shi and Qiu Xiang up and down for a while, then turned around and went back. When it was almost dark, Wang Shi stepped out and saw Ma Long still herding his horse by the woods behind the house, "Come back, it's almost enough." Wang Shi shouted.

Ma Long pulled two horses and a donkey back and tied them to a tree behind the house, and then walked to Wang Shi and accompanied Wang Shi to enjoy the evening view. At this time, there was a pheasant cry in the surrounding woods, which seemed particularly remote, and a line of geese flew overhead, Wang Shi couldn't help but sigh, raised his head to look at the geese in the distance, and felt in his heart: "The autumn wind and evening scenery of the wild goose are flat and sandy, and the barren forest stays overnight in the village."

Looking at the mountains from afar, the ambition is difficult to pay under the twin peaks. ”

After Wang Shi finished chanting the poem, he looked at the mountains from afar, and was distracted, and Ma Long next to him asked: "Master, what do you mean by this poem, I don't understand." ”

Wang Shi looked at Ma Long with a smile: "Apprentice, you have to read more books when you go back in the future!"

"Master, I dozed off as soon as I read the book. ”

"Hahaha, I really can't help you. ”

"The guests have eaten. The old lady walked to the kitchen door and looked at Wang Shi and shouted.

"Youlao!" Wang Shi asked Qiu Xiang to go to dinner with him, and at this time, the young woman with the child in her arms also got up and walked to the kitchen with Qiu Xiang.

There is a table of eight immortals in the middle of the kitchen, and the dishes and chopsticks have been arranged, and in the middle is a large ceramic bowl, in which some flatbreads are placed, and there are some sauces in the bowl next to it, and a few green onions.

Wang Shi is a southerner, and he is used to eating this pancake roll with green onions. Barely ate a piece of bread. So he got up, went into the hall, and sat down. After a while, the old lady put a wooden plank on the floor of the hall outside, and took out the quilt: "In this mountain, it is cold at night, so you still have to cover the quilt." As he spoke, he went into the inner room, Wang Shi asked Ma Long to bolt the door, Qiu Xiang slept inside, Wang Shi slept in the middle, and Ma Long slept on the side of the door. The three of them lay down in their clothes. Not long after lying down, Wang Shi suddenly heard a horse barking from behind. "Apprentice, someone is stealing a horse, go and see." ”
