Thirteen times lost
It is said that Li Chunqiu is fighting fiercely, and suddenly saw a young man standing up high and jumping above everyone's heads.
Thirteen-year-old Shangguan Ding picked up the head, jumped on top of the walled gate, held Li Chunqiu's head high and shouted: "Li Chunqiu is dead, you still don't stop!"
Hearing this shout, the people of Jiugong Mountain peeked in the chaotic battle, and when they saw that it was really the head of the owner of the chestnut village, they immediately lost their fighting spirit, and several people who were surrounded in it threw down their swords on the spot and knelt down to ask for surrender, and the mountain people on the periphery had already gone their separate ways.
Wang Shiping saw that Li Chunqiu had won a complete victory, and his spirit was lifted again, and he shouted: "I have surrounded the cottage, don't let go of the two thieves of Langbei!" After hearing this, everyone rushed to the various exits of the cottage.
The Shangguan brothers were in front, Wang Shiping and the leaders were behind, and they rushed into the walled gate, Shangguan rushed into the main hall like an arrow, and Shangguan Qianye hurriedly shouted: "Don't be reckless!"
Before the words fell, Shangguan Ding stood outside the palace gate and said, "Brother, there is no one inside." Wang Shiping said: "Go to the side hall." As soon as he finished shouting, he looked at the doors and windows of the side halls around him, and opened them one after another as if they were blown open by the wind.
Except for Shangguan Qianye, everyone only heard a series of "popping" sounds from broken doors and windows, and before they understood what was going on, Shangguan Ding said behind everyone: "No!"
At this time, Shangguan Qianye jumped to the top of the main hall with an arrow, and then turned around and shouted to Shangguan Ding: "The apse!" and then disappeared.
Wang Shiping wanted to say to the two of them not to be too anxious, but seeing that Shangguan Qianye had jumped off the main hall, he hurriedly turned to look at Shangguan Ding, and when these people turned around, Shangguan Ding was already gone. Everyone was stunned for a long time, and the second village master spoke: "King, when we came, we were worried that something would happen to these little brothers, but now we are redundant." Even if Chang Jiuren is here, it will be difficult for him to win the Shangguan brothers. ”
Old man Wang nodded, and thought about it again, Shangguan Qianye was about to become his own Chenglong fast son-in-law, and he could get such a good son-in-law of a hero, it was really a great creation, and the smug expression of this old man was written on his face again. At this moment, the Shangguan brothers turned back from behind, and both of them pulled their heads and said nothing.
Wang Shiping knew at a glance that he must not have found the second thief, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said: "The two young heroes don't need to worry, I will immediately ask someone to search again." ”
Shangguan Qianye said: "Uncle, no need, we found three tea bowls in the apse, and the tea is still hot." ”
At this time, Shangguan Ding also handed over his right hand and unfolded it for everyone to see. When everyone looked at it, it turned out to be an eye patch, presumably because the one-eyed person was too hurried to bring it in the future. When the other people saw it, they also expected that Chang Jiuren was not here, so they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Wang Shiping said: "The two young heroes don't need to be in a hurry, good and evil will be rewarded in the end, not that they will not be reported, the time has not come." Let's go back for the time being, and think about it in the long run." Brother Shangguan had no choice but to do this at this point, and the two of them lowered their heads and followed Wang Shiping and walked back.
The other mountain people, some of them supported the wounded, some held the weapons of the wounded, in short, they returned victoriously, and everyone talked and laughed along the way.
Before dark, everyone returned to Dongying Mountain. As soon as they entered the gate, everyone felt that the atmosphere was wrong, the huge cottage was very deserted, Wang Shiping stood and listened, there was no sound.
Hurriedly shouted loudly: "Madam, Yueru, Dad is back, and the young heroes are back." After shouting several times and no one answered, the old man rushed into the main hall as if he were flying. As soon as he entered, he fainted and fell to the ground.
When everyone rushed in to take a look, it turned out that Mrs. Wang, Wang Yueru, and more than a dozen maids and minions were all spared, and all died tragically in the palace. Miss Yueru was lying on the ground naked, still holding the copper coin engraved with Shangguan Qianye's name in her hand.
Miss Yueru's back is engraved with four clear words: Shangguan Qianye. The crowd called out in the past, but none of them lived,
Shangguan Qianye stared at Miss Yueru, tears couldn't stop flowing, he didn't expect such a weak girl to be poisoned by this. Everyone was wiping away their tears, when they heard another scream from Wang Shiping at the entrance of the hall. Everyone shook their heads to see, it turned out that Wang Shiping was in pain and could not kill himself in the palace.
Several leaders panicked, everyone couldn't make up their minds for a while, and they all had no choice but to surround the Shangguan brothers, and the second village master said: "Shaoxia, what should you do now?" Shangguan Qianye endured her grief and said: "Let's bury them all first." As he spoke, he walked to Yueru's side, gently picked her up, and slowly walked out of the temple gate, and several other leaders also followed behind with other corpses.
Shangguan Ding's eyes were red from crying, but he was still twitching. Shangguan Qianye walked forward step by step with his beloved woman in his arms, recalling the brief scene of contact with Miss Yueru. In his ears, the voice of Miss Yueru when he was leaving echoed: "Brother Qianye, you must come back safely." ”
Shangguan Qianye muttered in his heart: "Sister Yueru, now that I have come back safely, why are you not here again? Why didn't I give you a blessing or a word of peace before I left?" Why would I leave you at home?" Countless self-blame and remorse poured into Shangguan Qianye's heart.
The Shanzhong chose a place with the best feng shui in Dongying Mountain, and then dug several large pits deeply. When Shangguan Qianye personally carried the Yueru girl to the pit for burial, he found that there was a hidden weapon deep in the throat of the Yueru girl, and Shangguan Qianye endured the heartache to take it out, and it turned out to be a seven-petal flower made of pure steel.
If you look closely, Miss Yueru's neck is purple and black, and it must be that there is poison hidden on the secret weapon. Shangguan Qianye watched it, put the body of Miss Yueru into the dirt pit, and buried it with his own hands. Then I went to check on the wounds of the others, and they were all injured by the same seven-petal poisonous flower.
After everyone finished burying the deceased, Shangguan Qianye knelt in front of Miss Yueru's grave, and silently thought in his heart: "Yueru, you are a good girl, you and I have no chance to be together in this life, if there is an afterlife, I will marry you, protect you, and let you live in my sight forever." Then he stood up, took out the hairpin given by Miss Yueru and looked at it, put it on his body again, and took the seven-petal poisonous flower that he took from Yueru's body with him.
On the second day, after all the aftermath was settled, the Shangguan brothers resigned to the leaders. Everyone originally wanted the two brothers to stay and become the king of Dongyingshan, but the two refused. The original second master took over the position of king.
Brother Shangguan continued to move forward with a melancholy mood. After walking for a while, Shangguan Ding couldn't help but ask Shangguan Qianye: "Brother, who do you think attacked Dongying Mountain when we went to Jiugong Mountain?"
Shangguan Qianye had not yet recovered from his grief, and said casually: "I don't know either. ”
Shangguan Ding said: "I know that there are three groups of people who are going to Jiugong Mountain, one of them is the Jiugong Mountain people who are locked up in the back mountain, but those people have been frightened by us, I don't think it will be them." The second is Li Chunqiu, but he kindly invited Uncle Wang to go, and he will definitely not harm behind his back. Most likely, it is Cao Rang, the left protector of the Proud Sword Sect, and his two apprentices who are in cahoots. They must have come here secretly when we were attacking the mountain and killed Uncle Wang's family. ”
Shangguan Qianye said: "Maybe, when we catch the two thieves, the truth will naturally be revealed." Shangguan Ding asked: "Brother, where are we going now?" Qianye said: "Go and participate in the newcomer ring, after all, it is where the martial arts event is located, maybe you can also meet the people of the Proud Sword Sect." ”
The two of them have traveled to Henan on this day, passing through a place called Sichuan North Shop. At this time, it was already noon, and the Shangguan brothers felt hungry in their stomachs and wanted to find a small restaurant to eat.
When they entered the North Sichuan Shop, there happened to be a shop on the side of the road, and the signboard said "Walker's Home", so the two brothers went straight over, and when they entered the house, they found that there were already several tables of guests eating inside. The two of them ordered some food casually, and sat down at the table and waited.
Qianye sat there alone in a daze, while Shangguan Ding looked around, and then said to Shangguan Qianye: "Brother, why are they all looking at us?"
Shangguan Qianye raised his head and looked around, and as Shangguan Ding said, some of the people looked straight ahead, and some peeked at it, Qianye said: "It must be that there are very few outsiders in this shop, so everyone is looking at us." Leave them alone, we'll be on our way after dinner. ”
The two waited for a long time, but no one came over with vegetables, Shangguan Ding was a little anxious, and asked, "When will our food come?" At this time, someone outside the door said loudly: "It's coming." The two turned around to watch, and saw five men walking in from the outside, the first one, about thirty years old, knew at a glance that they were all practicing families.
The man saw the two of them and stepped forward to clasp his fists and said, "Dare to ask the two, I don't know if you know the Tieshan monk?" Shangguan Qianye said: "We are the disciples of the Tieshan monk." After speaking, the five people glanced at each other, and then the leader asked, "Dare to ask which young man used the weapon of the Iron Mountain Monk back then, the Seven-Eyed Remnant Dragon?"
Shangguan Qianye said: "That's what I use." Shangguan Ding said: "Why don't you ask who makes Pangu laugh?" Qianye hurriedly said: "Don't talk too much." ”
The man at the head walked further again and said, "On the orders of the old man of my family, I am here to invite the two of you to the house for a light meal." I just asked about the blade, but I just wanted to confirm if it was you. Please come with me. ”
Shangguan Ding whispered to Shangguan Qianye: "It seems that our master really has face, no matter where he goes, as soon as he mentions his old man, someone will immediately invite us to dinner, and the next time we go to a new place, I don't need others to ask, I will say it myself." ”
Shangguan Qianye said: "Our mentor used to be the leader of the martial arts alliance back then, so naturally he has a lot of friends. You only know that you eat in the name of Master, but you don't think about how you can gain the prestige of Master and his old man. ”
Shangguan Ding said: "My brother taught me a lesson again, I was just joking." Qianye said: "Whether it's the truth or a joke, I always know that in addition to family hatred, my brothers must repay the master's kindness, and don't leave a bad name on the rivers and lakes, and ruin the reputation of his old man." ”
Saying that, the two of them followed the five strong men out of the store, and Shangguan Ding asked in the back: "I don't know who is outside your family, but my master's old friend?" ”
Shangguan Ding muttered in the back: "It's quite mysterious." When a strong man accompanying him heard this, he turned around and glanced at Shangguan Ding viciously.
Shangguan Ding said: "What are you doing? Want to eat people?" Qianye hurriedly said: "Don't talk nonsense!" and then said to the man: "Please don't worry, he is still a child." ”
