Chapter 1: The Wind and Snow Guest
This story is pure fiction.
In the winter of the third year of Great Qin, the snow in the north has not dispersed for two days, and the cold wind shuttles wantonly between this majestic empire, and the pedestrians who come and go have accumulated a thick layer of snow, which is the same as the snow scene in that winter.
Under the heavy snow, at this time, there are a lot of strange people in this small city, everyone in the rivers and lakes, I don't know why, gather here, there is the dragon and tiger guard of the Great Qin Empire, leading a group of dragon and tiger guards, wearing pitch-black heavy armor, jet-black color, incompatible with the surrounding snow scene, everywhere you go, the houses and shops are closed, and the already cold streets are even colder because of the loss of popularity.
There are also one or two quacks dressed in white, with a white horse under their crotch and a spear behind their backs.
A man with a scar on his face, holding a butcher's knife, and dressed in black cloth.
There are also the chivalrous warriors who travel the mountains and rivers, the monks who persuade people to be kind, the Taoist priests who don't ask about the world, and even a beggar who steals people's money on the street, and a bewitching evil woman, these people in the rivers and lakes have all come to the small city of the Great Qin Empire.
Today's city defenders no longer dare to ask for transit money, none of these Jianghu guests are easy to mess with, whether it is the elderly, children, women, generals, thieves and beggars, it is not these city guards who dare to talk more.
"The Sky Fox Demon Girl Hu Meiniang, the Silver Spear Zao Wou-Ki, and the Dragon and Tiger Guard Chief Zhang Xueting. ”
On the open-air platform of a tavern, a young man wearing a brocade robe, a jade pendant with a belt, a long sword inlaid with jewels on his back, two mustaches at the corners of his mouth, and a face like a crown of jade, playing with two dragon balls in his hand, looked at the people who came in one after another today, poured a pot of wine, and said to himself.
"Father, father! Why is Zhang Xueting's name like a woman? This dragon and tiger guard looks so frightened that people look at it, but they didn't expect this name to be so delicate. ”
It was a little girl who was as delicate as a doll, and the child was dressed in a white lion cub.
"Be cautious, these Jianghu guests are not like those people you usually see who are of three religions and nine streams, these people are all eagles and dogs of the imperial court, don't let people seize the handle. ”
"Cut, it's not certain who is stronger and who is weaker than my father. ”
Although the young man said this, it was just his own tone, and it was also quite frivolous, as if these Jianghu guest court eagle dogs were nothing more than this in his eyes, and they were still drinking wine.
"Hmmm, it's even more interesting, how can there be an old man and a child. ”
No one knew what the young man meant by this, but he looked at an old man leading a child from outside the door, and the old man trembled like a dead tree, but the cold wind could not blow down the old man, and the child was wrapped in a coarse cloth coat and hid behind the old man, and his little faces on both sides were red from the snow.
Even so, the little boy still insisted, following the old man in front of him closely, step by step, stepping on the steps of the old man.
The old man's slow steps were very small, but the child's steps were very large, so the child was out of breath all the way, it seemed that there was no rest along the way, the old man didn't care about the child, just told him to follow closely, looking at their body bones, but not a person who practices martial arts.
All those people in the rivers and lakes, perennial martial arts, not to mention that everyone is as strong as a dragon, but its depth is far beyond ordinary people, especially those who break through the limits of human beings and reach the innate realm, it is said that these people can achieve the unity of heaven and man.
The child was tugging at the old man's clothes, and his palms were already frostbitten, and in some places they were even scarred and cracked again.
Walking inside the city gate, the old man suddenly said something.
"Well, after two months of driving, I finally came to the end, you followed me closely for two months, and your heart is not bad, from now on, you are also the old man's apprentice. ”
The child who was dragging his clothes behind him, after hearing the old man say this, was expressionless, wondering if he was frozen, and then collapsed.
"This kid is good, his body is weaker, but his heart is not bad. ”
The old man held the child in his arms, at this time, this old man, no longer trembling, withered branches and old trees, when receiving the child, just like a woke lion, majestic and inviolable, giving people a very domineering, contemptuous of everything, so that the surrounding people have looked sideways.
Although those Jianghu guests were unhappy, they all knew that the old man in front of them was not easy to mess with, and only a few of them snorted coldly.
The old man held the child in one hand, and pulled out a simple black knife from his back with the other hand, to be exact, it was not black, the son was often stained with blood, the blood stains were dry, layer after layer accumulated, a strong bloody gas, directly rushed to the face.
It's just that in the blink of an eye, those people directly turned into a pile of meat foam.
"Waste, dare to stand in the way of the old man. ”
The old man shook those people into pieces with a knife, and the bones and minced meat were scattered all over the ground, and a few people next to him were directly suppressed by the power of the knife, and a few of them ran slowly, and the old man wiped out those few knives again.
"Overlord Wei Long didn't expect this old immortal to come, I haven't seen him for so many years, and this old guy's murderous nature is still so heavy. ”
Those people next to them saw so much, some were frightened, some were not confused, and some were indifferent.
Obviously, this knife is not unfamiliar in the rivers and lakes, especially the blade is still dripping with blood, and that needs to be tightly set on the snow like jade, red and white, in fact, no one dares to take a step forward.
"Wei Long was a first-class master in the rivers and lakes 20 years ago, and now after 20 years have passed, no one knows if he has taken that step, and if he has taken that step, then what is he going to do when he comes here today?"
Zhang Xueting looked at this information one after another, and when he turned to Wei Long, his hand trembled obviously, overlord Wei Long, these four words were twenty years ago, no one dared to underestimate them.
He is domineering and arrogant, with a supernatural sword technique, among the masters in the world, almost unrivaled, and finally because of martial arts, there was something wrong and I don't know where to go.
20 years later, a generation of new people replace the old, these four words have never appeared in the rivers and lakes again, some people say that he is dead, some people say that he has retired, seeing him today, whether he is dead or retired, it means that this matter is not over.
The oil lamp swayed in the wind, and in the dim and dark secret room, of course, there could be no wind in this secret room, but a man in black appeared in the secret room, looked at the information in Zhang Xueting's hand, and immediately asked.
"Do you want to arrange to keep an eye on him, if the sword kills people here, I'm afraid our people won't be able to stop it. ”
"Staring? Do you think we can keep an eye on him, since he said that he appeared, then he is sure to get rid of our tracking, first-class masters are not so easy to deal with, you can rest assured that this matter is good, it seems that he has defeated the murderous nature, the child next to him, this is the best proof, at least the child is still alive." ”
Zhang Xueting pinched the oil lamp with his fingers, and the light dimmed completely, and then turned around and left the secret room.
......
A tavern, a few green forest heroes drink and eat meat here, the people here on the first floor are basically all full, some people boast, true and false are mixed in it, some people who have just entered the rivers and lakes, all listen to the drunk man boasting, there are many stories of the people in the rivers and lakes, and they only go to wine.
It's just that the people of this time didn't take the things he talked about, really take it seriously, the rivers and lakes are not happy and hateful, but a big dye vat, countless people who yearn for the life of the rivers and lakes go in, but after coming out, it is undoubtedly not a deception, although there is morality in the rivers and lakes, most of them are hypocrites who hide knives behind their backs, and I don't know when they will stick a knife in your back.
Wei Long came to this inn with the child in his arms, some people saw the knife that was still dripping blood on Wei Long's back, and more people noticed the child in his arms.
"An old man and a child, guess what's the relationship?"
On the open-air platform on the second floor, a pot of wine sat two people, next to them was a little girl frolicking there, a pair of big eyes staring below, the snow fell on them and did not care, the young man in white, from time to time with his own hand patted the little girl's white snow, lest the little girl's clothes be wet by the little snow.
"Master and apprentice or grandson, that old man is not easy to deal with, why did Mr. Zhuge say this? . ”
That person's surname is Zhuge , the people in the rivers and lakes are called Iron Judge, and people who are familiar with him are called Mr. Zhuge Judge, or he is called Zhuge Judge, and those who have an enmity with him will directly say Iron Judge.
"That old man is not easy to deal with, if it was 20 years ago, even if it was the old sect master of your family, I am afraid that he would be pressed by him. ”
Hearing Mr. Zhuge 's words, the young man finally put down his posture, although he was calm on the surface, the water in the wine glass instantly condensed into ice.
This momentary gaffe also made Zhuge see it in his eyes.
"This!"
"It seems that the old guy's martial arts have improved one step further, since he said that he was holding the child, then his murderous nature has probably been depressed, it is his blessing, and it is also our blessing. ”
Mr. Zhuge drank a glass of warm wine, looked at the young man sitting opposite, took out a new wine glass, handed it to him, and poured a glass of wine.
"He, yes, who. ”
The young man spat out three words, looked at the old man below, and sat there, wondering if it was an illusion, and when he saw the old man just come in, he looked in their direction at first sight.
"Tyrant!"
"Iron Judge. ”
The old man also spit out three words from his mouth, and said at the same time as the Zhuge judge above.
"I want a nice room, a basin of hot water, a towel, and don't let anyone disturb me. ”
The old man put down the silver, the little second was the first time to see such a fierce person, the big knife was still dripping with blood, and the child in his arms seemed to be hot.
"Yes. ”
