In the world, many things have to talk about the word "fate". Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Edge" is a mysterious and mysterious thing, and it is wonderful. Buddhists call it "karma", and Taoists call it "fixed number".

Destiny belongs to you - no matter how uncertain this thing is, no matter how winding the process of pursuit, it will eventually become yours in the end, and on the contrary, what does not belong to you - even if you have been carefully guarding it, it will inadvertently suddenly disappear without a trace, no matter how hard you try to find it in the future, it will be in vain.

Love, of course, is no exception.

People who are destined, even if they are ignorant of life, separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, and have many obstacles, will eventually fulfill people's wishes and be happy.

People who have no fate, even if they are childhood sweethearts, even if they are close to each other, even if they swear an alliance, the ending is just Lao Yan's separation, melancholy and sighing.

Throughout the ages, how many infatuated men and women who are in love with each other have lamented that they have no part in fate and make people happy.

This is just as the old saying goes: "There is a fate to meet thousands of miles away, but it is difficult to hold hands without a fate." ”

At dawn the next day after separating from Dongfang Zhen on the lakeside, Sang Qinghong hired a boat to the other side in a hurry, and the two brothers and sisters asked when they saw people at the dock, but no one claimed to have seen the person they described.

The two were in a hurry, and for two days, they ran hundreds of miles to inquire around, but they still found nothing. When they saw that the land route was fruitless, they guessed that he had taken the water route.

So, the two of them went down the Yangtze River, through Jiangling, through Shishou, until they searched for the territory of Jianli, and spent five or six days all the way to investigate, except for some trivial matters such as shipwrecks and gang fights, they did not get a trace of valuable clues, and Dongfang Zhen disappeared as if he suddenly evaporated from the world.

Sang Qinghong's mood gradually became restless from initial worry, then depressed, and finally cold in her heart.

"Senior brother, do you say, will Brother Zhen have been captured by the Shaolin gang?" Sang Qinghong stood on the mountain rock on the bank of the river and threw a stone into the river fiercely.

"Hmm...... On that day, we set off before them, and we didn't hear any news from the Dongfang brothers, so they shouldn't have been able to find out either......" Zhong Zhiling thought to himself.

"However, they are in the same group as the government, and this area is full of the government's eyeliner, how can Brother Zhen hide? I'm worried...... Brother Zhen has already been arrested by the government......" When Sang Qinghong thought of this, she was anxious and excited.

"Senior sister, don't think so badly!" Zhong Zhiling comforted: "Brother Dongfang is very smart, he must have hidden in some secret place to heal alone...... What's more, there are still posted everywhere that he is wanted, if he is really caught, why is it still posted?"

"Yes...... But we looked for him everywhere, and ......we were dying! He should have expected it, he should have ...... You should always try to contact us!" Sang Qinghong was angry and anxious, and her eyes were red again.

"Senior sister, have you ever thought about it: there are official eyeliners everywhere, and if the Dongfang brothers really contact us, it will be easy to expose themselves!" Zhong Zhiling was quite calm, "If we inquire along the way, we should have already attracted the attention of those eyeliners, maybe they are still secretly following us! With just the two of us, how can we deal with them? If we really find him, we will help the enemy...... In that case, wouldn't it be a counter-harm to the Dongfang brothers?"

Sang Qinghong gritted her teeth and nodded.

"Actually, that's good!" Zhong Zhiling smiled, "Senior sister, do you think: since we can't find out about the whereabouts of the Dongfang brothers, then the enemy will definitely not be able to find out about it." In this case, the situation of the Dongfang brothers is really very safe! You say, is this the truth?"

Sang Qinghong looked at the distant mountains on the opposite bank with empty eyes, and nodded slowly.

Zhong Zhiling was silent for a while, and sighed: "Senior sister, now that our entanglement is almost exhausted, I think, let's go back first!"

"Go back, go back to Kongtong?" Sang Qinghong retracted her gaze and stared at him in a daze.

"Yes, back to Kongtong. Zhong Zhiling nodded, "I think the master should have gone back." If we haven't returned for so long, not only will the old people be worried, but also the uncles and brothers......"

"No, I haven't found Brother Zhen yet, I will never go back! If you want to go back, you can go back by yourself!" Sang Qinghong shook her head without relenting, her expression and tone were very resolute.

"Hey," Zhong Zhiling let out a long sigh, "If it goes on like this, how can it be one!Senior sister, listen to me, go back first...... Besides, going back doesn't mean we won't continue to look for Brother Dongfang......"

"Senior brother, what do you mean ......" Sang Qinghong was puzzled.

"What I mean is: when we go back, we will ask the brothers and sisters for help and go to the rivers and lakes to inquire about the news of the Dongfang brothers. There is great power in numbers, and I believe that I will be able to find out. ”

"This is a solution!" Sang Qinghong was a little moved.

Zhong Zhiling struck while the iron was hot: "Yes! Think about it again, the injuries of the Dongfang brothers will not heal for a while. Therefore, he will not show up for a while. If we continue to look for it like this, it will be in vain...... I think that when his injuries are healed, he will definitely try to return to Kunlun first, and after gathering the Kunlun people, he will go to Shaolin Theory to rescue the Jade Master. ”

"That's right, why didn't I think of this layer!" Sang Qinghong clapped her hands, her face relaxed.

"After we go back, on the one hand, we can ask our brothers and sisters to help inquire, and on the other hand, we can also go to Kunlun Mountain to wait in person...... If you want to go, I'll go with you. Senior sister, what do you think of this?"

"Okay!" Sang Qinghong was finally moved, "Senior brother, let's go!"

Zhong Zhiling breathed a sigh of relief, for fear that she would regret it again, and never mentioned the word "Dongfang Zhen" again along the way, only picked up some anecdotes about the rivers and lakes that made her curious to listen to her, or shared some interesting stories about her brothers and sisters with her, which made her laugh from time to time.

It's just that how did he know that Dongfang Zhen, who haunted her dreams, could not always be concerned about it? She silently made up her mind that if she didn't find him, she would never give up, even if it was the time of her life.

But she couldn't predict whether her love affair with Dongfang Zhen was destined by heaven or not?

The colorful butterflies flying in the flowers on the riverside sighed with tears: "I am not willing to cry for a lifetime, and I will not forget to think of a lifetime." Hey, I hope this infatuated girl doesn't end up like this!"

※※※

If Dongfang Zhen knew that Sang Qinghong had been looking for himself these days, even if he was fighting to the death, he would have shown up immediately. It's just that he, who is hiding half-dead in the cabin, how can he know about this?

I don't know how long it took for him to faint, but he was suddenly awakened by a noise, and hurriedly sat up, grabbed the long sword, and followed the sound.

The piercing light peeked through the hatch and the interior was clearly discernible as the deck was filled with a loud noise.

"Tapping" sounded, and a person walked down the stairs from the staircase, and Dongfang Zhen fixed his eyes and saw that it was Zhang Er.

"Strange!How can there be blood stains!" Zhang Er looked down at the corridor carefully as he walked, muttering to himself, "Oh, someone must have scratched it when carrying the goods last night...... This is strange, which guy is it? Injured so badly, he didn't come to Lao Tzu to ask for the medicine this time!"

While talking to himself, Zhang Er had already gone down to the bilge, followed the bloodstains for a few steps, shook his head and said to himself: "No! Last night's goods were obviously piled up on the left, why did the bloodstains go to the right?...... There was no blood here yesterday!"

After walking for another ten or so steps, he saw that the blood stain stretched all the way to a black corner, and there was a hint of fear on his face.

Dongfang Zhen secretly shouted "bad" in his heart, and he never found this line of blood in the dark, which caused this fatal flaw to be exposed.

Everyone in the world is curious, and the more timid a person is, the stronger his curiosity tends to be. Zhang Er is no exception.

Zhang Er's back was a little cold, and he wanted to turn around and call someone to check it out, but then he thought about it: "In broad daylight, what are you afraid of! Hmph, don't let those guys look flat, in this case, how can you convince me in the future?"

So he took out the fire from his sleeve, shook it and took a few steps forward to look down, and suddenly felt that there were two eyes looking at him in the dark, and he immediately felt terrified, and raised his head suddenly, but he saw that at the bulkhead outside Zhangxu, a pale young face appeared in front of him, and his cold eyes were staring at him for a moment.

Zhang Er was so frightened that his heart trembled, and he was about to scream in fright, when he suddenly heard the other party shouting: "Don't scream! or I'll kill you immediately!" Three feet away, a long sword flashed with a cold light, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at his chest, making him suddenly feel as if he had pierced through himself.

"Don't ...... Don't kill me!Hero, spare my life!" Zhang Er was so frightened that Huo Yizi fell, and fell to the ground on his knees, shaking his hands trembling all over.

Dongfang was afraid that the fire would burn the cabin, so he waved his sleeves busily, and a sleeve wind "whoosh" struck, and the fire was suddenly extinguished, and the light was dim.

"Whisper, as long as you don't shout, I will never hurt you!" Dongfang said in a deep voice.

"Yes! Yes!" Zhang Er agreed in a low voice, calming down.

"Come here!" Dongfang Zhen withdrew his sword and beckoned to him.

Zhang Er didn't know that he couldn't walk anymore, so how could he dare to have the slightest disobedience?

Dongfang Zhenwen said: "Little brother, do you believe it?"

Zhang Er heard that he could feel his details clearly, looked at him in surprise, and nodded again and again.

"Brother Zhang, don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person. Last night, I was robbed by the lake and was injured, so I crawled here and hid...... Don't be nervous, those gangsters didn't find me, so they'd already be gone. When I'm healed, I'll be gone. ”

Zhang Er gradually lost his fear, raised his head and looked at him carefully, but saw that he was handsome, with a righteous face, and his eyes were also very soft, his fine upper body was like copper tendons and iron bones, his chest muscles were like rocks, the muscles in his waist and abdomen were like hills and ravines, and his arms were bruised with green tendons, but his face was terrifyingly pale.

"Daxia, are you seriously injured, do you want to go and see the doctor?" Zhang Er asked with concern.

"No, just rest for two days. Dongfang Zhen's expression was indifferent, he suddenly looked at him, and said sternly: "Remember: when you go up, don't tell your fellows about this! There are many people, if my murderous enemy knows about it, not only will it be difficult for me to escape, but even you will be innocently implicated." ”

"Got it! I'll be tight-lipped!" Zhang Erbu nodded, paused, couldn't help but be curious, and asked: "Hero, listen to your accent, aren't you a local?"

"Uh...... My name is Fang Lei, a native of the Northwest. Dongfang Zhen smiled.

Zhang Er asked flatteringly: "Fang Daxia, do you know who those people are?...... I won't tell you, the people of the underworld gang in this area, the villain still knows a lot, and I may be able to help you!"

Dongfang Zhen muttered slightly: "I don't know either." Thank you, Brother Zhang!" he said, taking out a large ingot of silver from his baggage and handing it to him, "Please accept this bit of silver." The grace of saving lives, forever remembered in the five!"

"This ...... How can this work?" Zhang Er saw that he was paying his salary for two or three months as soon as he made a move, and waved his hand and said, "I can't ask for this silver." ”

Dongfang Zhen forced the silver into his hand and said, "I'm hungry, can you help me get something to eat?"

"Thank you, hero!" Zhang Er put the silver on his waist, "I'll go get you something to eat!"

"Be careful, don't let them know!" Dongfang Zhen ordered.

"I'll save it!" Zhang Er slowly walked out of the cabin and exhaled.

Not long after, Zhang Er really came down again, slowly took out the half chicken hidden in his arms, and handed it to him with a smile.

"Thank you!" Dongfang Zhen took it and swallowed it all in one gulp.

Zhang Er took advantage of his eating time to take out a wet towel from his arms and carefully wiped the blood stains on the cabin board.

"Fang Daxia, there is still wine!" Zhang Er thought very thoughtfully, and after taking the towel back, he took out a kettle and handed it to him, "You can keep it and drink it slowly!"

Dongfang Zhen took it gratefully, and said gently: "You go! Don't get old, don't get old, save people from being suspicious." ”

※※※

Dongfang Zhen recuperated for a long time, during which the injury flared up again, which made him die of pain, and it took him a long time to recover from his grogginess.

At about noon, the ship suddenly stopped, and the deck suddenly became lively, and someone shouted, "Let's go, let's go drink!"

Another voice laughed: "Mo Si, I see, this drinking is fake, go and meet your cuiyan girl is real!"

"Where, where!" the man called Mo Si said: "Brother, am I a person who values color and ignores friends?" Listen, I will be the east today!"

The crowd was very excited, and the noise and shouting gradually faded away.

Zhang Er quickly ran down the cabin and said to Dongfang: "It's Jiangling." I'll go to the dock and buy you something to eat. ”

Dongfang Zhen was drenched in cold sweat and said in a trembling voice: "Okay...... There you go. ”

Zhang Er locked the hatch, and after an appointment, he took the lead in returning, he put a large bag of cooked beef and six hot steamed buns in front of Dongfang Zhen, urging: "It's still hot, eat it while it's hot!"

Dongfang was so shocked that he couldn't come to his senses, gritted his teeth and said, "Let's let it go first...... Thank you!"

At noon, the light was very sufficient, and even in the bilge of the ship, Zhang Er could see Dongfang Zhen's face clearly.

Dongfang Zhen saw him looking at himself in a daze, and was shocked, and asked, "Brother Zhang, what's wrong?"

Zhang Er was suddenly frightened and took two steps back, and said in a trembling voice: "Fang Daxia...... You...... You weren't the one who killed the brocade guard...... Wanted by the Imperial Court, right?"

Dongfang Zhen's face changed sharply, and he said sharply: "Who said that?!"

Zhang Er retreated further, and said in a panic: "There are examples posted everywhere on the dock, and they look very similar to you...... The man's name was Dongfang Zhen. ”

Dongfang Zhen's heart was a little settled, and he said: "Yes, I am Dongfang Zhen." However, if you go to report to the police immediately, you will also be guilty of harboring!"

Zhang Er had already retreated to the top of the stairs, but when he heard the words, he stopped, thinking of the various powerful methods of the government, and hesitated.

Dongfang Zhen sighed and said gently: "Brother Zhang, actually, I was wronged! Up to now, since no one knows about it, I think it's better not to report it and not to cause trouble...... When I get to a sparsely populated place, I will get off the boat, and I will never bother you!"

Zhang Er pondered for a while, approached him, stretched out his hand to pull open a few bags of goods, and said in a low voice: "Hide in!"

Dongfang Zhen took his clothes and baggage, endured the pain, and slowly climbed into the pile. Zhang Er repacked the goods and wiped the blood stains on the ground again.

In the midst of the chaos, he suddenly heard a majestic shout from the deck: "Check! Is the owner there?"

Zhang Er hurriedly hid the towel and ran up quickly, promising as he ran: "The grass people are here!

Dongfang Zhen heard someone snort and asked suspiciously, "Why did you lock the hatch before?"

Zhang Er hurriedly said: "Lord Hui: I went to the dock to eat before. ”

The visitor continued to interrogate, "What were you doing in the cabin just now?"

Zhang Erdao: "Lord Hui: Because my guys are still drinking, they haven't returned yet, and the grass people are afraid that the goods will be lost, so they will go down to the cabin to check and check." ”

Dongfang Zhen held his breath, and heard several people "kicking and stepping" down to the bilge, and after wandering around for a while, the official suddenly said sharply: "Nonsense! The door is locked well, how can you lose the goods?!"

Zhang Er's voice was a little frightened: "Lord Hui: You may not know that those thieves in the rivers and lakes have a very clever way to unlock the locks! Let's just say that two months ago, I obviously locked the hatch well, but a box of jade disappeared! Fortunately, it was later recovered by the eighth master, otherwise, the grass people and their families would not be able to pay for it for eight lifetimes......

"What kind of goods are these?" the official was impatient and interrupted Zhang Er's ramblings.

"Lord Hui: It's some cabbage, shrimp, fungus and other goods, but there are no valuable things...... These are all Qianjiang Hu Baye's goods. ”

The official let out an "oh", paced for a moment, and said cheerfully, "Let's go!"

Zhang Er hurriedly said: "Thank you for your hard work! This is a little meaning, please drink your adults!"

The official's tone softened: "Please thank Hu Ba on behalf of the official!"

"Don't dare to be! Don't dare to be!" Zhang Erha was stiff.

Soon the men returned, and the ship was moving and setting sail.

Dongfang Zhen felt that the hull of the ship was jolting from time to time, and the speed was faster than before, and he thought that it was sailing in the river.

He let out a light breath, pushed away the sack that was pressing on his side, sat up straight, and continued to heal with his knees crossed.

After the tea time, I felt that the kidneys were swollen and cracked, the lumbar spine was sore and unbearable, and the entire lower body from the lumbar spine down was numb, and gradually could not support the body, so I had to lie on the sack pile.

His heart was cold, and he knew that Zhao Yanhao's domineering palm power and ruthless stamina far exceeded his expectations. At the beginning of the middle palm, he struggled to survive, and he was temporarily supported by a brave blood, but the palm force had already broken through the body, shocked the meridians, broke the qi, and staggered in the meridians, blocking the operation of the qi.

He was still unwilling, and he endured the pain and urged his true qi again and again, wanting to wash away the depression, but he was so painful that he was in cold sweat like rain, and his whole body was convulsed, but he was still like a dragonfly shaking the pillar. He let out a long sigh, closed his eyes, and soon fell asleep again.

So suddenly falling asleep and waking up, tossing until the next day. During this period, Zhang Er came down twice, and wanted to send him off the ship in a secluded harbor, but when he saw his tragic condition, he couldn't bear it, so he had to give up.

In the early morning of this day, Zhang Er was suddenly woken up by the noisy voice of the sailors: "Look, there is a ship blocking the channel ahead!"

Zhang Er was taken aback, and hurriedly ran to the deck to watch, but saw that on the river half a mile away, an eight-slurry boat was lying in the middle of the river, the bamboo sail was tense in the wind, and a group of people stood on the bow of the boat.

"Stop!" someone shouted.

Zhang Er hurriedly ordered the sailors to anchor and stop the ship, but fortunately, this section of the river was flat, the current was not urgent, and it was not long before it was berthed more than 20 zhang away from the ship.

The ship turned its bow and went upstream, and for a moment it was anchored parallel to the cargo ship. More than 20 people jumped over with swords in hand.

The men and sailors turned pale with fright, and crouched tremblingly by the ship's strings.

Zhang Er glanced at the black-faced man who took the lead in rushing in with a shudder, and exclaimed, "Sun Er is in charge, what are you doing here?" As soon as the words fell, a snowy steel knife was already on his neck.

Zhang Er trembled, and said in a trembling voice: "Sun Er is in charge, you ...... Are you kidding?"

Sun Er's master snorted coldly and glared at him viciously.

Zhang Er was so frightened that he couldn't possess his body, and at a glance, in the blink of an eye, all the guys and sailors had steel knives on their necks.

Zhang Er settled down and said with a forced smile: "Sun Er is in charge, this is Hu Baye's goods, and they were sent to the owner of Yueyang Building...... The little one is Hu Baye's buddy Zhang Er, presumably you are a noble person who forgets things, you don't remember the little one, right?"

Sun Er's head smacked him on the head and sneered: "Stinky boy, do you want to scare the boss when you bring out Shang Xiaotian and Hu Balai?"

"What?" Zhang Er was shocked and snorted, "Sun ...... Sun Er is in charge, this is the ...... Really?"

"Hmph, just your little Zhang Er, is it necessary to lie to you?"

Zhang Er's face turned pale, and he asked in a trembling voice: "Sun Er is in charge...... Do you want to ...... How?"

"Hahaha!" Sun Er laughed and stroked his cuffs, "It's very simple: robbery!"
