38 Sword Qi in Western Yunnan (8)
The man went out of the village, went to a wood, walked more than ten feet into the woods, came to a meadow, put down the sack on his shoulder, untied the knot, stretched out his arms and took out a man from the sack, and saw that the man's long hair was hanging down to the ground, and it turned out to be a young girl.
Tu Renxiong immediately understood that this was a flower thief. The flower thief laid the girl flat on the grass, and saw that the girl's face was like a colorful glow, beautiful and incomparable, and she was in a state of sleep. The flower thief swallowed his saliva, rubbed his hands, smiled heavily, and went to unbutton the girl's placket.
He had just unbuttoned the girl's buttons two or three times, when someone behind him said, "Friend, what are you doing?" The flower thief was startled, jumped up suddenly, pulled out the single knife at his waist and held it in his hand, turned around to look, and saw a middle-aged man about forty years old dressed in gray, with a long sword hanging from his waist, leaning his back against a pine tree, looking at him coldly.
The flower thief raised the knife in his hand and asked, "You are the thing that came out of nowhere, what do you care about me, what does this matter have to do with you?" The man in gray sneered: "I have a bad habit, and I have to take care of things that I can't get used to." Acquaintance, the girl in the incense to dissolve, sent home, and then apologize to her family, I read in the first meeting, I let you go. ”
The flower thief laughed when he heard this, and said: "What an arrogant tone, since I went to the rivers and lakes on my own, I don't know how many yellow flower girls have tasted, who dares to say half a word." You bastard, but you are arrogant, you don't know whether you live or die, and you spit out this dung, which makes me laugh to death. Then he asked, "Do you know who I am?" The man in gray looked at his arrogant appearance and said calmly, "I don't know who you are, but I really want to know who you are." ”
The flower thief said: "Say it and scare you to death, master, I am the big apprentice of the famous Xiangshan Eight Tigers, 'Little Pan'an' Chen Tongyi." Do you dare to report your name?" When the man in gray heard the words "Eight Tigers of Xiangshan", his face couldn't help but change, and when he heard him call himself "Little Pan An", he couldn't help but laugh dumbly.
Pan An is a famous beautiful man in ancient times, Chen Tong is nicknamed "Little Pan An", which shows that he is pretentious. The man in gray looked at him with small eyes and a flat nose, violent teeth, protruding cheeks, and he looked like a monkey, and he actually called himself Xiao Pan An, angry and funny, and said: "Okay, I'll tell you now, I am the third disciple of the Western Yunnan Sword Sect, surnamed Tu, you remember clearly." Your dignity actually calls yourself 'Pan An', if Pan Anquan knows that you are as famous as him, you must be angry and get up. ”
Chen Tong is conceited and has martial arts, and is the apprentice of the famous villain Xiangshan Eight Tigers in the western Yunnan area, he has been doing evil for a long time, I don't know how many bad things he has done, how many good women have been ruined, and he heard that the person in front of him is a disciple of the Western Yunnan Sword School, and he was shocked in his heart, he has heard of the prestige of the Western Yunnan Sword School over the years, but he is arrogant, since he walked the rivers and lakes, he has not received many lessons, and has suffered many losses, and now Tu Renxiong said that he was worthless, so he was angry and ashamed. shouted: "You are tired of living!" Raising the knife, he slashed at Tu Renxiong head-on.
He looks cold, but the knife is not bad, this knife is chopping, the momentum is quite fierce, Tu Renxiong's body is slightly sideways, let this knife go, Chen Tong slashed three times in a row, the knife is to kill people, Tu Renxiong drew his sword in his hand, and resolved his offensive one by one. He shouted: "God has the virtue of a good life, you are so ignorant, don't blame me for being merciless." The long sword stabbed obliquely, attacking Chen Tong's left ribs, Chen Tong collected the knife and returned to the seal, the swords intersected, when a spark burst out, Chen Tong's arm was sore, the knife almost flew out of his hand, his heart was shocked, jumped back a few feet, Tu Renxiong hated him for being vicious and obscene, took two steps forward, handed the long sword, grew a foot, and stabbed Chen Tong's lower abdomen, Chen Tong couldn't dodge, the sword pierced into his lower abdomen, screamed, and fell to the ground.
Tu Renxiong didn't care whether he was dead or alive, put the long sword into the sheath, turned back to the grass to help the girl, and pinched the "pulp hole" under her jaw a few times. Tu Renxiong gently pressed her lips and said to her, "Girl, don't panic, listen to me explain things clearly." So he told her how he inadvertently ran into "Little Pan'an" Chen Tong and wanted to insult her, and pointed out to her Chen Tong lying on the ground not far away. The girl was in a daze and remembered Chen Tong's appearance, but Tu Renxiong said it sincerely, so she believed his words.
Tu Renxiong asked her home address, picked the girl up, and sent her home. After the girl's family learned the truth, they naturally thanked him a thousand times. After Tu Renxiong finished the matter, he went back to the faction.
Chen Tong was stabbed in the abdomen by Tu Renxiong with a sword, and did not die immediately, but he was also seriously injured, unable to move, in the wilderness, uninhabited, he lay on the ground, no one rescued, for a long time, when the blood was about to die, he struggled to dip his fingers into the blood that flowed out of his body, and wrote the words "Yunnan West Sword" on the ground, he wanted to write the fourth "pie" word, but the blood had been exhausted, and he could no longer lift his fingers, and the blood withered and died after a while.
Chen Tong did not return for many days, and the Eight Tigers of Xiangshan were also very worried, so they sent other disciples under the door to look for him, and finally found Chen Tong, who had been dead for several days, and saw the three words "Yunnan West Sword" written in blood next to him, so he brought Chen Tong's body back, and at the same time said the situation of the three words.
Although Chen Tong has a bad character, he is the eldest disciple of the Eight Tigers of Xiangshan, and his kung fu is the highest among the disciples, and he is very good at flattering and patting horses on weekdays, so the Eight Tigers still like him very much. Now that he died in a daze, the Eight Tigers were very sad, judging from the sword wounds suffered by Chen Tong and the handwriting left behind, the Eight Tigers concluded that it was a disciple of the Western Yunnan Sword Sect.
The Eight Tigers originally wanted to seek revenge in Yunfeng Mountain, but on the one hand, they were afraid that there were many disciples of the Western Yunnan Sword Sect, and going to the door to seek revenge was tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, not only could they not take revenge, but they would also take their lives; on the other hand, the swordsmanship of the Western Yunnan Sword Sect was superb, and the eight of them together were not the opponents of Xuan Jizi, the head of the Western Yunnan Sword Sect, not to mention that there were hundreds of disciples under him.
The Eight Tigers did not dare to come openly, so they had to secretly make a trick, wandering around Yunfeng Mountain all day long, looking for an opportunity for revenge, this day finally met Tu Renxiong and Gai Lao Wu returned from Tengchong County, so they intercepted the two and killed, Tu Renxiong and Gai Lao Wu were two against eight, almost killed, fortunately Zhu Xiangru four people met and saved.
Gai Lao Wu walked all the way and said that at dusk, he arrived at the foot of Yunfeng Mountain, and it was only two hours away from the "Xuanji Palace" of the Western Yunnan Sword School. Because Tu Renxiong was injured in the leg, he found two peasant families at the foot of the mountain to live in, and planned to go up the mountain early tomorrow morning.
That night, Zhu Xiangru and the four of them learned from Tu Renxiong and Gai Lao Wu that the head of the sword school in western Yunnan was nicknamed "Xuanjizi", the real name and surname were unknown, and now he is more than eighty years old, he has accepted a total of eleven apprentices, Tu Renxiong is three apprentices, Gai Lao Wu is five apprentices, and the apprentices have accepted apprentices. The rules of the sect are very strict, and even the people in the vicinity know that this Jianghu sect is a chivalrous and righteous person, so the farmhouse that stays at the foot of the mountain heard that it is the "Xuanji Palace" on the mountain, and they are all enthusiastic, and they take out the good wine and old dishes at home without hesitation.
Zhu Xiangru judged the situation and thought that the swordsmanship of western Yunnan was a gang worthy of being wooed and close, and he had already made up his mind in his heart, no matter what way he went, he would also persuade the "Xuanjizi" to be used by me, and become a strong support for opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty.
At dawn the next day, the six of them left the farmhouse and went up the mountain. Gai Laoshan carried Tu Renxiong in front of the guide as usual. Zhu Xiangru four people along the road to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Yunfeng Mountain, cover the fifth first acquaintance of Zhu Xiangru and his party, excited, along the way gushing to introduce the scenery of Yunfeng Mountain, the four people are also attracted by the scenery on the mountain, on the way only to see Yunfeng Mountain rise from the ground, straight to the sky, the mountainside is surrounded by ethereal clouds, the whole mountain peak is like a looming fairy scene in the world. Look at the distance again, the green mountains are undulating, the middle peak is upright, the ground is leaning against the sky, the birthday star in the mouth of the old five people is the peak of the cloud peak, the top of the incense burner is cut like bamboo shoots, the cloud peak ladder is connected to the peak of the clouds, the peak of the mountain is Taiji stretches out of the clouds, and the green peak is like a sea of floating clouds. Build a temple at the top of the cloud peak and build a precipice, look at it from afar, there is really a feeling of "fairy mountain Qiongge", which makes people's hearts shake, and produces the wonderful feeling of "floating like immortals".
Everyone lingers in the beautiful scenery, there is no sense of tiredness, unconsciously to the peak, you can see the "Xuanji Palace" built in a unique style, the magnificent mountain gate.
