Chapter 55: Painting Hall Spring
It was getting dark, and the rain was pouring down. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
In the sound of falling rain through the forest beating leaves and dripping, the Taoist priest and the monk Xihua recounted the difficulties they encountered.
The two of them easily did not go to the Bird's Nest Zen Temple Taoist Temple, and what contributed to this trip was the invitation of the master of the painting hall, Yu Rongzi, and the tiger support order spread throughout the rivers and lakes in the Yaowang Valley.
Of the two things, as an elder, it is not difficult to support your niece, but it is another difficult thing.
This time, they were invited by the owner of the painting hall, Yu Rongzi, to witness a dispute in the rivers and lakes, and this incident happened to stump them.
Su Musha was surprised, "What kind of dispute can stump Yu Lizi?"
Who is Yu Rongzi? In the list of swordsmen ranked by Shuyu, Yu Rongzi ranked fifth, and there are not many people in the world who can stump him.
Xihua didn't answer, but took out a folded piece of paper from his bosom, and I don't know how he kept it on his wet body, but the paper was intact.
Su curtain opened, saw a palm-sized seal "sword" written on the paper, the handwriting is as strong as iron painting, strong and powerful, through the back of the paper, a strong and heroic momentum rushed to the face.
The only drawback is that the edge of the "sword" is a little rough, like when the brush is down, there is foam on the ink, and it becomes like this after breaking.
But the flaws are not hidden. "Good words!" Su Musha sighed, and saw a line of fly words in the lower right corner of the note: Dugu Sword River in the land outside the square.
"Dugu Jianhe? I haven't heard of it. Su Musha handed the paper to Ye Qiudi, and he didn't know what was embarrassing about this piece of paper.
Ye Qiudi took it and glanced at it, then handed it to Shuyu, and also praised it, "Good sword!" No wonder the two seniors are embarrassed. ”
Su Musha didn't understand, "Could it be that this surnamed Dugu wants to learn calligraphy from Yurenzi's seniors?"
Shuyu explained to him, "This Dugu Sword River is here to compete with swords, and his swordsmanship and sword intent are all on the word 'sword'." ”
She pointed to the rough edge of the word "sword" and said, "Look here, here is the condensation of the sword and the sword qi on the pen." ”
"Look at the sword intent on his 'sword' again, just like the white grass broken by the north wind, and he walked all the way with a fierce and fast sword, which is similar to the bloody knife technique. ”
"If you can condense your breath in the pen, you will inevitably enter the realm of 'no sword in your hand, but a sword in your heart'; Soyu concluded.
Just as the song has the intention, the painting has a spirit, the song has an ambition, the dance has a soul, the tea has a way, and the sword also has its own sword.
Just as when a line of poetry is written, it must have its expression, and so is the sword.
The so-called kendo is to understand a sword, be familiar with it, and reach the realm of no moves, no sword and no heart, and the shot is like a wonderful hand into a thunderstorm.
Each person's understanding of kendo is different, and naturally there are high and low. Just like poets, some people have hundreds of poems, some people have a lone poem to suppress the whole Tang Dynasty, but some people only have Yongmei poems to take a shot.
But that's a different realm. Among the rivers and lakes now, there are not many kendo masters, less than two digits.
When Shuyu ranked the swordsman list, it was the success of the sword that was relied on, and the sword of Yurenzi had been successful for a long time, and it was ranked fifth.
"Not bad. Monk Xihua nodded, "I have a junior brother, named Xichan, he has been walking in the place outside the square since he left the teacher, I had a pigeon to pass a book to him the day before yesterday, asking Dugu Jianhe this person. ”
"How?" asked Su Musha.
"In the land outside the square, Dugu Sword River is also called the Sword God!"
"Sword God?" Su Musha smiled, "Could it be that the Sword Saint of the Yue Kingdom is also self-proclaimed?"
Xihua shook her head, "The name of the Sword Saint is his own outbreak, according to the letter of the junior brother, Dugu Jianhe was born in a slave family, cold and few words, he practiced swords when he was young, and he was a sword master at the beginning of the year of the dancing elephant, and he was a small success; Xi Chan once had a relationship with him, this person is inseparable from good and evil, and he has a sword spirit that is vertical and horizontal, and there is rarely an enemy in the land outside the square. ”
"That's what we're struggling with. Daoist Yunqi took over the conversation, "Although the Dao of the Fish Tree Sword has been completed for a long time, it is still at this step before the sword is sealed. Now that he has been sealing the sword for nearly ten years, he is afraid that something will happen during the competition. ”
"Since the sword has been sealed, why bother to compete with others?" Su Musha took this for granted, "Just refuse directly." ”
Shuyu folded the paper and returned it to Xihua, "If it's just a competition, the predecessors of Yulizi can naturally refuse, but although Dugu Jianhe writes on this paper is polite, it is actually for revenge." ”
"Revenge?" Su Mu was puzzled. Shuyu picked up the fire and told the grudge between Yu Rongzi and the Dugu family back then.
The people of the rivers and lakes praised the fish and the lily "bow back and the sword shines on the frost, and the autumn wind goes out of Xianyang" The poem is the origin of this hatred.
At that time, there was a master of using a knife in the land outside the square, he led people to invade the border city of the Han people, killed countless people, and was a famous thief in the Western Regions.
His original name was Dugu Baiqing, because he killed more people and killed people to make people head in different places, the people in the rivers and lakes called Dugu Baiqing.
After Yu Lizi reformed his evil and returned to the right under the persuasion of Lu Qinghe, he walked in the rivers and lakes with a sense of chivalry, sharing worries and solving problems for people everywhere, and made a great reputation.
Later, when Yu Rongzi was about to return to Yuhang to get married, he heard the name of Dugu Baizhu.
So he carried his sword out of Xianyang in the autumn wind, went to the land outside the square, and chased and killed Dugu in the desert slaughter.
Legend has it that the two stood on the ancient city wall of Huangsha for three days and three nights, and finally Dugu was pierced through the chest by Yulizi.
Yes, Yu Rongzi's reputation was shocked, and his kendo was even greater, and he realized his own kendo.
"This Dugu Sword River is afraid that it is the descendant of Dugu Baibai. Shuyu said, "It's this battle, and it's difficult for the seniors of Yurenzi to think of it." ”
"Swordsmen have their own pride. Ye Qiudi, who had not spoken for a long time, put down the wine jar and said, "It will never be the idea of the seniors to ask the two seniors to come forward to resolve this dispute. ”
Xihua nodded, "That's right, Yu Rongzi just asked the two of me to be a witness, so that Dugu Jianhe would not stop being angry with his family after his defeat." ”
"In this way, the predecessors of Yu Rongzi are not sure of victory, no wonder the two of you are embarrassed about this matter. Su Musha nodded.
"As the saying goes, it is better to settle the dispute than to settle it, and the two of us have discussed and decided to take action to deter Dugu Jianhe before going down the mountain, and then think of resolving this dispute. Yunqi said.
"But the two of me are not opponents one-on-one, and it is difficult to be convincing if we join forces, so I want to invite a kendo master. Xihua said.
"He is known as the sword god, and the most proud must be his kendo, if you can convince him in kendo, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort if you want to resolve this dispute. Yunqi said.
"Therefore, after seeing Lord Ye Gu condense his qi into sword silk and rain and turn into mang, we explained a difficult matter in our hearts. The two of them sang and made their desires clear.
"When the sword is not drawn, victory or defeat is unknown. “
"A swordsman can accept defeat but not defeat without a fight, and a swordsman can accept death but not die without a fight. ”
Ye Qiudi said, "A swordsman, if he loses the courage to draw his sword, it is a shame that no matter how great the glory is, it cannot be covered. The predecessors of the fish will not agree to you doing this. ”
Speaking of this, Ye Qiudi turned to smile, "What's more, you don't know what kind of sword path Yu Rongzi's predecessor has understood, and how do you know that he can't compete with Dugu Sword River?"
"Yu Lizi has been sealing the sword for nearly ten years, and if there is no sword in his hand, any sword will fall. Yunqi said.
He has no sword in his heart, and he only cares about mourning his deceased wife all day long. Xihua also shook her head.
