Chapter 8: The Six-Year Covenant
Fortunately, Li Yihang's vomiting of blood did not hurt his internal organs, but was punched in the cheek by someone, loosening one of his big teeth, squeezing and rubbing his tongue and bleeding. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info his head was hit several times, he has been dizzy, his eyes are bloodshot, but although there are many injuries all over the body, they are all skin and flesh injuries, after applying the medicinal oil, there is no big problem. Seeing the topaz dragon broken into two pieces, I remembered that my father wanted to take good care of himself, but in the end, he ended up with such a result, and he regretted it very much. His mind was full of thoughts about the broken jade dragon, and he didn't realize the pain in all parts of his body.
Li Yihang is young and strong, and he is often beaten, he rests for one night, and he can go to morning class every two days, and the head of the sect sees that his nose and face are swollen, and he knows that he is fighting again, but since he has nothing to do, he does not want to delve into it, but just tells him not to fight aggressively in the future. Li Yihang said in his heart: "I didn't fight, but was beaten by the group." Although his heart was full of grievances, he didn't tell the truth and nodded in agreement.
He has been worried about the jade dragon, one day, told Liu Kunzheng about this matter, Liu Kunzheng knew that Hong Renhai was to rob his jade pendant, the conflict just started, but he didn't expect this jade pendant to be so important to him, he pondered for a long time, and said: "Let's go to Nanchang City for a walk, see if we can meet some craftsmen, for you to repair this jade pendant." ”
Early in the morning of the second day, the two asked Li Jiaotou for leave, and just walked out of the door, but saw Luo Yun also coming out. Luo Yun was shocked when he saw Li Yihang defeat Du Huang and the others in a few moves that day, and saw that Liu Kunzheng's martial arts were not under Hong Renhai, and then he circled around the two of them without incident, hoping that Liu Kunzheng would pass on some skills to him and guide him in a few moves. Liu Kunzheng once laughed at him and said: "You follow us all day long, can your big brother Hong tolerate you?" Luo Yun said: "Senior Brother Hong has rarely come to play with us since that day, I heard that he used to hide in the Zhongyi Hall to practice martial arts, and even several masters praised him for his hard work, which is not the lazy appearance of before." Senior Brother Liu, I know that he was stimulated by you, did you win him in the fight that day?" Liu Kunzheng said: "Don't talk nonsense, I have the ability to win against Senior Brother Hong, it was because of his mercy that I had to save face." ”
Luo Yun often came out to wander, and knew that Li Yihang wanted to repair the broken two-cut topaz dragon, so he said that he knew a silver blacksmith with excellent craftsmanship, and many people went to help him with his business, so it was better to go over and have a look. As soon as the three of them combined, they let Luo Yun lead the way and go up the South Street, Luo Yun said: "This silver blacksmith is very skillful, it is said that the iron tools and other iron tools he forged are very good, and the silver jewelry he creates is even more exquisite and complex, and it is ingenious. Li Yihang said: "You are not a local, how do you know so much? I don't even know that there is a South Street here." Liu Kunzheng said with a smile: "Senior Brother Luo should often come to the silver blacksmith to make silverware, and he is naturally familiar with it after many times." Luo Yun also smiled: "I have any silver jewelry myself, they are all with Senior Brother Hong Renhai, Senior Brother Hong will make the silver into all kinds of animal shapes, there are 12 zodiac signs, there are also all kinds of birds and animals. You see, that's what he gave me. After speaking, he took out a silver wolf ornament from his neck, and the white wolf made of rotten silver was snorting at the moon from his neck, and the two of them saw it, and it seemed that they also saw a full moon hanging in the deep sky, which was indeed very vivid.
Liu Kunzheng said: "How much silver does this Hong Renhai have to create these jewelry?" Luo Yun said with a smile: "Who knows, anyway, I contributed eight taels of silver, Senior Brother Li contributed five taels of silver, and I think other senior brothers and junior brothers are indispensable there." Liu Kunzheng sighed and said, "It's really lawless!" Li Yihang said: "How do you choose a wolf, aren't you a cow?" Luo Yun said: "I like the unruly wildness of the wolf, and the wolf howls on a moonlit night with a sense of forbearance and sadness." ”
The three of them walked while talking, turned a few corners, and came to a small shop, which did not even have a plaque or sign, and there were no customers in the shop, and an old man with gray hair was busy with his head down. Luo Yun shouted, "Old Man Gao, we're here to help you again." The old man surnamed Gao raised his head, saw that it was Luo Yun, and said with a smile: "Okay, good! But I really want to thank you, what kind of beast and bird do you want to fight today?" Li Yihang saw that although he was full of white hair, there were not many wrinkles on his face, his body was strong, and his whole person exuded a capable atmosphere, and he couldn't help but secretly wonder. Luo Yun said: "This time it's not silverware, but I want you to help and see if you can repair this thing with the old man's craftsmanship." Li Yihang handed over the two jade pieces, and Boss Gao took them over and looked at them for a while, and said: "These two jade pieces, it is impossible to connect them, only add a silver hoop and silver set and the like, so that they can be connected as one." Luo Yun said: "That's exactly what we mean, and we also ask Old Man Gao to think of a good way for us to connect it to be both strong and beautiful." Boss Gao smiled: "Don't worry, I've been a silver blacksmith for decades, and I haven't encountered any strange requirements?
Li Yihang handed him a small ingot of silver and asked, "Old man Gao, is this silver enough?" Boss Gao smiled: "That's enough silver, the silver set made of this ingot silver can wrap the whole dragon in." The three of them laughed, and Boss Gao asked, "Is there any broken silver?" Li Yihang shook his head, and Boss Gao said, "Then I'll melt it and return it to you." I saw him put the silver ingot in the crucible, lit the charcoal stove, pulled up the bellows, the fire soon became bright, and after a while the silver melted into liquid, Boss Gao poured half of the silver liquid into the stone trough to make silver strips, and the remaining silver liquid was put aside to cool. He gestured to the size and length of the jade dragon, and then tapped the silver bars with a clang.
Liu Kunzheng and Li Yihang had never seen anyone make silverware, they were very curious to watch, Luo Yun went outside to buy three baked cakes and came back, Li Yihang smiled and said: "Senior Brother Luo, I always ask you to invite me to eat baked cakes, how embarrassing." Luo Yun said: "It's easy to say, I have to ask you to pay for lunch for a while, don't be stingy." ”
Liu Kunzheng didn't joke with the two, and asked Boss Gao: "Old man, your craftsmanship is so good, why don't you have a signboard in the store, with a store sign, isn't the business more prosperous?" Boss Gao smiled: "I have never stayed in one place for more than a year, and if I earn enough money, I will set off to the next place." Liu Kunzheng said: "Then haven't you been to many places far away?" Boss Gao said: "Yes, the north and south of the river, the upper and lower parts of the Yellow River, the Western Regions, the snow-capped plateau, and the desert grassland, have all walked again." Liu Kunzheng exclaimed, his tone was full of admiration, obviously very fascinated by the places he had been. He said to himself: "After Yicheng becomes a teacher, I will also walk around, go to the best places, climb the Range Rover, and send my arms away!" Li Yihang said: "Senior brother wants to go there to play? I will also follow you." Liu Kunzheng said: "Liao, Western Xia, Dali, Saiwai Western Regions, all foreign countries I want to travel to increase my knowledge." ”
Luo Yun said: "The little brother also wants to go outside, why don't the three of us go to the world together, do you think it's okay?" Liu Kunzheng said: "The proposal is very good, but it's a pity that you two are too young and have not yet achieved the art industry, I will leave the school at the end of the year at the latest, but I can't wait for that day." Luo Yun said with a smile: "Senior Brother Liu, don't worry, you marry a wife and have children first, and in a few years, we can go out with you." Li Yihang also said: "That's it, Senior Brother Liu slowed down, Mr. is a big fat son, the three of us brothers will go outside and gallop between heaven and earth!" Liu Kunzheng saw that the two of them were also intoxicated and yearning for the outside world, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll explore the road first, and when you are twenty years old, I will come back and take the two of you to travel the world together." ”
Li Yihang said: "It's a word, Senior Brother Luo and I are both fourteen years old this year, and we will meet here during the Mid-Autumn Festival in six years, okay?" Liu Kunzheng and Luo Yun clapped their hands, and the three of them were discussing warmly, and Boss Gao said: "It's done, you can see how it goes." Li Yihang took it, only to see that there was a thin layer of silver ring at the fracture of the dragon body, and the two sections of the dragon body were spliced into one, and there were dark ornaments on the silver plate, which was extremely exquisite. Boss Gao said: "As long as you don't break it hard, this silver-inlaid jade dragon will be as strong as if it hasn't been broken." The more Li Yihang looked at it, the more he liked it, bowed deeply to him, and said, "Thank you Boss Gao, you are the only one in the world who has such skills." ”
After paying the money, I got out of the store. Liu Kunzheng said: "It's still early, why don't we just play in the city today and then go back?" Luo and Li both nodded yes, Li Yihang said: "Where to play?" Liu Kunzheng said: "The highest building in Nanchang City, the Shengjin Pagoda, is nearby, I have been in Nanchang for many years, and I have always wanted to see it but I haven't succeeded, so I will go there to climb high and look far, okay?" The two had no objections, asked the path, and the three brothers walked away.
The Shengjin Pagoda is outside the Jinxian Gate of the ancient city, and you can see it from afar. The three of them walked closer, and saw that the tower was indeed handsome and upright, standing majestically in the sky. The rope gold tower is a brick and wood structure pavilion type tower, the tower body is seven layers and eight sides inside and outside eight shapes, the gourd copper top is golden and translucent, the whole body is a green tile of the Zhu column, the ink corner is a clean wall, simple and unpretentious. On the archway of the main entrance, hang the plaque plaque of "Yongzhen Jiangcheng" highly, look inside, it is very transparent, you can see a couplet on the first floor of the golden tower at a glance: "Pearlescent floating relics in the middle of the night, the golden in the air is like coming." ”
Luo Yun said: "The name of the Shengjin Pagoda is so strange. Liu Kunzheng said: "I have heard that according to legend, before the construction of the tower, the only monk who dug the ground to get an iron letter, there are four turns of the golden rope, three ancient swords, respectively engraved with the words "driving the wind", "suppressing the fire", "descending Jiao", and a gold bottle, containing 300 relics, the rope gold pagoda is named because of this. Let's go in and see. The three of them walked into the bottom of the tower, and saw that there was a spiral ladder leading directly to its top floor in the tower, Liu Kunzheng said: "According to legend, the rope golden tower is lined with eaves and corners, and the copper bell is hung high, each layer of wind chimes has a scale, seven layers of seven tones, the breeze blows, pleasant to the ear, let's go up and see if this is the case." The three of them went up from the first floor to the seventh floor, and sure enough, there was a copper Ling on each floor, and the Ling voice was melodious and ancient.
Standing on the seventh floor, you can see the infinite scenery from afar. Luo Yun pointed to the attic in the east and said: "Senior Brother Liu, that attic is also quite high, could it be the attic of King Teng?" Liu Kunzheng said: "Yes, it is King Teng's Pavilion, this tower and a pavilion are seven or eight miles away from each other, and they are the two famous scenic spots in Nanchang City. Li Yihang said: "Why don't we meet in the Mid-Autumn Festival in six years, let's meet in the Pavilion of King Teng, drink and admire the moon together?"
Because the jade pendant was repaired, Li Yihang was very happy, and the three of them got off the Shengjin Pagoda, and their interest was still very high, and they pulled the two of them around the city until sunset and dusk, and then returned to the martial arts hall.
