Chapter 12: Leaving Home (2)
Yin Shizhi is a servant of the court, and the Yin family and the emperor are distant relatives, how dare Wu Yunchao offend, secretly sigh that it is unlucky to go out today, and meet the lord who is difficult to serve, and said with a wry smile: "It turned out to be Yin Gongzi, disrespectful and disrespectful, I don't know if Lord Yin is good?" Yin Mengyang sneered: "My father is very good, but if Lord Wu can't handle today's matter properly, Meng Yang will definitely tell my father truthfully." Wu Yunchao said with a smile: "Yin Gongzi can rest assured, this official will handle it impartially." He turned back to the officers and soldiers and said, "Take Wu Datong and Wang Qianjin away." Two people came up to hold Wu Datong in custody, and the other three dragged Wang Qianjin up, Wang Qianjin just stood firm, and suddenly waved his hands, and the three officers and soldiers who came up were all thrown to the ground. Wu Yunchao was furious and said to his subordinates: "If there is anyone who resists arrest, you can kill them on the spot!" When the officers and soldiers heard this, they drew their swords one after another! Wu Dadao: "Qianjin, don't do it, go to the yamen with Master Wu." Wang Qianjin glared at Li Shi with two eyes, obviously unconvinced, but Du Shuming and Yin Mengyang were taken aback, Wang Qianjin could put a few officers and soldiers to the ground with a wave of his hand, wouldn't Li Shi be even more powerful.
Wu Yunchao took away Wu Wang and the others, Du Mansion became quiet, Du Shuming walked to Li Shi, snorted heavily, and went to Du Tingfang again, flicked his embroidered robe and said: "Go back to the house and think about the past, these days, don't go out." ”
Du Shuming and Yin Mengyang went back to the study, Du Tingfang's face was unhappy, and Li Shi was depressed, he won the fight, but everyone was not happy, it was more like a mess of losing. Li Shi went back to the house and drank a glass of water, rested for a while, fought with Wang Qianjin, and also suffered a lot of fists, at first it was nothing, at this time I only felt that there was no piece of meat on my body that did not hurt, but I could bear it, and I fell asleep not long after lying on the bed.
At night, Li Shi slept Zhengxiang, suddenly felt that someone in the house seemed to come in, since the practice of the twelve meridians of the heavenly vein, the skill has increased, the ears and eyes are also a lot smarter, even in the sleep, still clearly heard the footsteps, Li Shi asked, "Who?" Just about to get up, but heard a woman whisper: "Don't make a sound, I am Tingfang." Li Shi was taken aback, and said in his heart: "Why did the eldest lady come to my room in the middle of the night, there must be something important." Asked: "Miss, but what are the instructions for the villain to do?" Du Tingfang took out a fire fold, lit a candle, took out an object from her pocket and handed it to Li Shi and asked, "Where did this come from?" Don't lie. Li Shi looked at it, it turned out to be the copper piece of the Five Elements Sect, and said strangely: "Hey, why is this thing in your hands?" Du Tingfang said: "You fell when you were fighting with Wang Qianjin today." ”
Li Shi said "oh" and said: "This is a token for others, and the villain told the master on the day he entered the Du Mansion." Du Tingfang suddenly said: "It turns out that when you met the bandits, you met the people of the Five Elements Sect. Du Tingfang took the copper plate and looked at it for a moment and said: "This is the decree of the master of the Xuanwu Sect of the Five Elements Sect, and the people of the hall will obey you, there must be a reason why the Five Elements Sect sent you such an important thing." ”
Li Shi took a chair and sat in front of Du Tingfang, let out a long breath, thinking back on the past, gloomy and sad. After a little caressing, he told his father about the Five Elements Sect Sun Kang to treat the disease, cure the plague, the robbery of the prison in Shicheng County, and the killing of his father, etc., and occasionally there were sad places, and it was inevitable to cry, Du Tingfang's eyes were slightly moist, and he swallowed: "I'm sorry, I mentioned that you were sad, but I didn't expect Li Wenshan to be your father, and the matter of respecting my father's treatment of plague has spread all over the world, and it is reported that even the current emperor knows about it." Li Shidao: "Miss doesn't need to comfort the villain, if the emperor knows, then An Qingxu and Liang Shidong should be subdued, but the villain has not heard of it." Du Tingfang was right to think about it, if the emperor was not faint, he would have punished An Liang and the others, and said in a loud voice: "Li Shi, my sister has something to ask for." ”
"Miss is serious, please speak. ”
"Can you sneak away from home with me for a few days? ”
"Then how can it be done, the master will definitely be angry when he finds out. ”
Du Tingfang was suddenly displeased, and said half-loudly: "That's it, I'll go by myself, don't tell my father." He got up and walked out the door, Li Shi hurriedly stopped, scratched his head and sighed: "Okay, please tell me where you want to go?"
"Just come with me, I can sell you, let's set off overnight. ”
Although Li Shi was unwilling, he couldn't let Du Tingfang go out secretly. In the dead of night, the two of them went out of the side door, only to see Du Tingfang bringing a carriage, Li Shi said secretly: "It seems that Miss is ready, but I don't know where to go." Without thinking much about it, he had gone south.
The early morning was still cold, and the two of them walked for most of the night, and they were already a little hungry, but fortunately Li Shi brought some dry food. Stopping the carriage, the two of them started a fire on the side of the road, and after a while they roasted hot dry food, but the aroma wafted from it. Du Tingfang took two bites, lifted her spirits, and said, "Li Shi, who did you learn martial arts from?"
"No, I haven't studied martial arts. ”
"If you don't say it, forget it, it's really stingy. ”
The two drove the carriage and headed south, and along the way, Li Shi asked how to go, but Du Tingfang just didn't say where to go. On the third day, the two had arrived in Luozhou, and Du Tingfang found a small inn outside the city to settle down. In the middle of the night, Li Shi was sleeping incense, and was awakened by a knock on the door, and when he opened the door, he saw Du Tingfang dressed in a man's clothes, heroic, and delicate, and said loudly: "Put on your clothes, I'm waiting for you here." ”
Li Shi didn't know what Miss was doing, but since she left Du Mansion, she had been like this, so she didn't ask much, changed her clothes and walked out of the inn, and after walking for a while, Li Shi finally couldn't help but ask: "Miss, now, don't you tell me where to go?"
"Baiyun Peak. ”
Li Shi was taken aback: "Baiyun Peak, isn't that where the Five Elements Sect General Altar is?"
"Yes, Baiyun Peak is heavily guarded, and the masters are like clouds, and we have to rely on your fatwa to get in. ”
Only then did Li Shi understand why the young lady had to accompany her when she left home, and then asked, "What are we going to Baiyun Peak for?"
"Help!"
"Save whom?"
"His name is Zhuo Buqun, and he has been locked up in Baiyun Peak by the Five Elements Sect for three years, I must rescue him. Du Tingfang's eyes were firm and resentful when she said the words "save him", Li Shi secretly thought: "I don't know what kind of person this Zhuo Buqun is, he has been imprisoned by the Five Elements Sect for three years, is he the sweetheart of Miss?" Thinking of Du Tingfang's expression just now, he felt even more so, and thought: "Miss usually treats me well, I must help her rescue her sweetheart." ”
Baiyun Mountain is located in the south of Luozhou, the mountain is steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack. The main peak of Baiyun towers independently, straight into the sky, is a cliff on three sides, only there is a rugged path in the east of the peak to reach the peak. Li Shi has also seen some mountains and rivers, but it is the first time he has seen such a terrain, and he secretly sighs at the magic of all things in heaven and earth.
The main altar of the Five Elements Sect is a stick of incense from the top of the peak, and it takes an hour to go up from the bottom of the peak. As soon as Du Tingfang and Li Shi arrived at Baiyun Peak, they were blocked by four big men with knives: "Who is coming, report your name." Du Tingfang stepped forward and hugged her fists and said: "The two eldest brothers work hard, we are the brothers of Zhenshui Hall, and Hall Master Sun sent us over." As he spoke, he took out the decree of Zhenshuitang, and the leading man looked at it and said: "It turned out to be the brother of Zhenshuitang, and it was hard to go up the mountain! Saying that, the four of them got out of the way, and Du Tingfang said "politely".
The two walked upwards for more than half an hour, and no one interrogated, but the mountain road was steep and very difficult. Li Shi had a lot of questions in his heart, and asked, "Miss, is there any other road to this mountain?"
"Nope. ”
"Then it's not easy for us to be caught up when we save people, and there are people guarding them, how to leave. ”
"It's okay, with your Five Elements Decree, it's enough to deal with it, but the main altar is heavily guarded, and it's the most dangerous place. ”
"What then?"
"Don't worry about it, there is a secret passage in the main altar of the Five Elements Sect, and no one knows about it, no one guards it, and it can be used for us to go down the mountain. ”
"How did Miss know about the secret passage?"
"It's a long story, do you remember the map of Baiyun Peak in the house?"
Li Shi vaguely remembered, but he didn't look at it carefully, Du Tingfang didn't wait for Li Shi's words and said: "The main altar of the Five Elements Sect is built according to the Five Elements Bagua, and there are many organs on Baiyun Peak, and many Five Elements Sect disciples don't know where the organs of this Baiyun Peak are, so there are many forbidden places on the peak, and if the ignorant people break on the peak, they will definitely die." The map of Baiyun Peak was made by Lord Li Chunfeng back then, and it is rumored that Master Li was imprisoned on Baiyun Peak, but he escaped by himself, and also drew a detailed map of Baiyun Peak. ”
Li Chunfeng is a Zhenguan celebrity, he was in charge of the Taishi Bureau during his lifetime, although his official position is not high, but he is deeply appreciated by Taizong, and the art of yin and yang is famous all over the world. The two talked and walked, turned a corner, the originally rugged mountain road suddenly appeared layers of stone steps, suddenly the voice of the ear, and turned a corner, only to see several people in front of them holding torches pacing back and forth, behind them are two marble doors, Du Tingfang walked in front, not close to the stone door, has been drunk: "Under the windward envoy Jia Weibiao, dare to ask which brother came up?" Although the speaker's voice was bright, but his body was thin, and he was as thin as firewood, Du Tingfang clasped his hands, raised his head high, and knelt down on one knee and said: "The subordinate Xuanwu Seat Zhenshui Hall Sun Hall Master is close to the attendant, see the windward envoy." Jia Weibiao glanced at the two of them, and said contemptuously: "It turned out to be the brother of Zhenshuitang, you don't do things in Liaodong, what are you doing in the main altar!" Du Tingfang pretended to be afraid, and said: "Windward messenger, the little one came here to be condemned by the master of the Sun Hall, a few days ago the hall got a night pearl, crystal clear, like nature, and what is even more strange is that the night is dazzling and colorful, far from being comparable to the ordinary, the hall master said that he was born a rough person, this kind of treasure is really wasted in this remote place in Liaodong, so he sent the villain to send it over, and respect the master." In addition, the master of the hall admired the wind to make the magic of the world, and he had no chance to see it, so he asked the villain to take a thousand-year-old snow lotus and send it to the messenger to express his heart. ”
Du Tingfang said and took out a six-inch-long brocade box from her sleeve, Jia Weibiao opened it, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect your Sun Hall Master to be so hearted, Jia wrote it down." What about the night pearl, take it out too!" Du Tingfang pretended to hesitate, for the sake of embarrassment: "The windward messenger forgives the sin, the hall master once said that this night pearl should belong to the Su sect leader below, and it should not be viewed by others." Jia Weibiao sneered and said to himself, "Do you think I'm rare?" said to the people around him: "Open the stone door." With the sound of "squeak", the stone door opened in response, Li Shi thought: "Such a big stone door, I am afraid that it weighs thousands of catties, I don't know how to press it back then, and I don't see how hard it is to open the door, let alone make a loud noise, it is really strange." ”
