54. Confession
Zhuang Boming once again made it clear that he wanted to go back with Yang Benmo, and after Zhuang Boming said these words, he looked at Yang Benmo with tears in his eyes.
Yang Benmo was speechless for a while, just staring at his apprentice blankly. What he never expected was that when Zhuang Boming's fate was hanging by a thread, he still regarded the master-apprentice relationship as if it were great.
Shangguan Qianye became even more anxious after hearing this, and said: "Zhuang Daxia, you must know that if you go back this time, you will definitely die." If your master has allowed you to leave, why should you do this? ”
Zhuang Boming didn't speak, he barely stood up, and walked towards Yang Benmo step by step. Yang Benmo said in a low voice: "Bo Ming, my child, why are you so confused? You leave with him, don't go back to die." You have followed me for decades, how can I bear to see you like this. ”
Zhuang Boming said: "Teacher, your grace of passing on the art is like recreation, if I leave, it is unjust to you, if I Zhuang Boming is a faithless and unrighteous villain, then what face is your apprentice, what face is there to step into the martial arts half a step? ”
Zhuang Boming's words completely shocked Yang Benmo, looking at his disciples, and then thinking about what he had done, he was really ashamed. Yang Benmo took two steps to Zhuang Boming, slapped Zhuang Boming in the face, and then said viciously: "What I want is for you to live!"
Zhuang Boming knelt in front of Yang Benmo again and said, "Master, I want you to live well." Shangguan Qianye stood behind Zhuang Boming, once again secretly raised his finger in his heart, and said secretly: "What a gentleman's knife, I will never let him die in the hands of the villain." ”
After thinking about it, he said that he didn't say hello to the two people, and leaned behind Zhuang Boming, and slapped the back of his neck. Zhuang Boming's head was dizzy, his body fell backwards, Shangguan Qianye took advantage of the situation to carry him on his shoulders again, and then looked at Yang Benmo.
Yang Benmo knew what he wanted, turned around slowly, waved his hand back, and said, "You guys go quickly!"
Shangguan Qianye carried Zhuang Boming on his back and disappeared into the night. After all, Yang Benmo is the supreme of the sword system, and he has many indescribable origins with Zhangying Rulai, so although he will inevitably suffer some blame after going back, there is no major disaster after all, and this matter is not a problem.
Shangguan Qianye carried Zhuang Boming on his back, for fear that Yang Benmo would change his mind and chase after him again, so he ran as hard as he could. In the process of driving, turn left and right, and do not dare to run down a road.
I don't know how far I ran, and I don't know where I went, until the rooster sang three times and turned white, then he gently put down Zhuang Boming, and he fell on the grass, panting heavily, Shangguan Qianye was too tired at this time. At this time, Shangguan Qianye was thirsty and hungry, and the fatigue of a day and a night was revealed. If I tried to move again, I felt a pain in the joints of the bones all over my body.
I on the ground, listen to the surroundings, there is no sound quietly, so I want to close my eyes and rest for a while. But after a while, he fell asleep groggily.
I don't know how long it took, Shangguan Qianye slowly opened his eyes, and saw a faint candle flickering beside him, lying in a room. Qianye recalled for a moment, and knew that he was asleep, but where was this? How could he be here? Then he suddenly sat up and looked around, only to see that it was a small room, and the interior was very simple, and there was no one else in the room except himself.
When I lived at the head of the bed, I saw that there was a seven-eyed remnant dragon with his own treasure sword. Shangguan Qianye picked up the knife, walked to the door gently, and opened the upper slit with his hand to look out. I saw an old man and an old woman in the room outside, the old man was smoking a cigarette leisurely, and his wife was sewing something under the lamp.
It can be seen that this pair of old men are not bad people, nor are they people in the martial arts, but just ordinary people. Shangguan Qianye was afraid that he would startle the two old men by going out with a knife like this, so he gently walked to the side of the bed and sat down, then pretended to have just woken up, yawned, and coughed a few times.
Only then did I hear the old woman outside speak: "Old man, go to the inner room to see if the young man has woken up." This kid can really sleep, it's been a whole day, you let him drink saliva first, and I'll go and give him a bowl of noodles to eat. As he spoke, it was the sound of two old men walking in their shoes.
Shangguan Qianye put the knife aside, sat on the edge of the bed, and did not speak. The old man walked in and saw that Shangguan Qianye had already gotten up, so he said, "Young man, are you awake?"
Shangguan Qianye pretended to be shocked and asked: "Well, this old man, where is this? Why am I here?" The old man smiled and said: "Young man, you can rest assured, this is my home, here, there is our old couple, the children are all older, and they have their own homes to move out, so yes, you can sleep here with peace of mind, your friend said, I will come back to pick you up in two days." After saying that, he laughed again.
The more Shangguan Qianye listened, the more confused he became, and he didn't know what was going on, so he hurriedly asked, "Uncle, what did you say about my friend? How did I get here?
After listening to this, the old man said, "It seems that your friend is right, you have been dizzy for too long. As soon as we got up this morning, your friend knocked on the door behind your back, saying that you had fainted from exhaustion, and there was no shop nearby, so he wanted to settle you in my house and let you rest for a few days. Come back and pick you up when he finds a place to stay. Your friend is so good, he threw down fifty taels of silver before leaving. Hehe, this young man is really generous. Although we are very frugal, we are not without money, and our children often send us money and goods. We can't take this money, it's not easy for you to go out, who doesn't have a place of danger?"
As he spoke, he came to the bedside, reached out and took out a bag from under the pillow and said, "This money, we haven't moved, take the money with you when you leave." Keeping you, a foreigner, for a few days is also a merit for us, and what is it like to receive the money? ”
Shangguan Qianye still had anything to think about money, and hurriedly asked, "My friend?"
The old man said: "Look at you kid, why did your friends ask about me." However, when he entered the door, he said that his surname was Zhuang, as if he was surnamed Zhuang, what is it called......"
The old man thought for a while and didn't think about it. At this time, the old woman who was outside answered: "It's called Bo Ming, this old man, he says that he is not old all day long, look at you, he can't even remember people's names." ”
Shangguan Qianye realized that he was asleep, and it was Zhuang Boming who sent him here, thinking of this, he asked the old man: "Uncle, he didn't say where he went?"
The old man said, "Not really? I haven't asked." Shangguan Qianye stood up after hearing this, and walked outside, and the old man grabbed him and asked, "Young man, where are you going so late?"
Shangguan Qianye said: "Uncle, I have something urgent, I have to find my friend." ”
After hearing this, the old man laughed and said: "I really let your friend say yes, you are really a quick temper, your friend said when he left, when you wake up, you must go to him first, so, he told me to tell you not to worry, he also specially left a letter for you, presumably the letter explained the whereabouts." ”
Shangguan Qianye hurriedly asked: "Uncle, where is the letter? The old man said: "Your current performance is not right with your friend's guess, he is afraid of you like this." When I left, I told me to show you the letter when you were full, otherwise I won't let me show you the letter. ”
And in the face of such a loyal and honest elder, although Shangguan Qianye was anxious, he was not good at taking a tough attitude. I sat down helplessly and said, "Okay uncle, I'll eat first, and I'll watch it after eating." The old man said, "Hey, that's right." Then he shouted from the other side: "Old woman, is the face ready?"
After a while, a large bowl of steaming noodles was served. Shangguan Qianye was indeed hungry, but at this time he was more concerned about Zhuang Boming's whereabouts, so he pretended to eat a few bites and said to the old man: "Uncle, I'm full, bring the letter to me quickly." ”
The old man smiled and said: "Your friend also said ......" Shangguan Qianye smiled helplessly: "Don't say it, uncle, I know, I'll finish eating it." After hearing this, the old man nodded and said, "That's right." ”
Shangguan Qianye swallowed like a wolf, and instantly killed this large bowl of tempting hot noodle soup. When there was something in his stomach, Shangguan Qianye's spiritual head also came up, wiped his head and smiled at the old man.
The old man said, "Young man, now you read the letter." Shangguan Qianye asked, "Where is the old uncle?" ”
At this time, the old woman said, "Young man, your friend gave the letter to my old man when he left, and I was afraid that he would lose it and not find it, so I let him put it in your arms." ”
Shangguan Qianye patted his head after hearing this, his face was full of helplessness, but he opened his eyes and looked at the two old men opposite, who were looking at him with kind eyes. Shangguan Qianye smiled embarrassedly and said, "Thank you, two old men, for your trouble." ”
After that, he hurriedly saved the letter that Zhuang Boming left for him from his arms.
Unfold the watch and wrote: "Brother Shangguan, thank you for saving your life, Zhuang is unforgettable." When I woke up, you were still sleeping soundly, so I didn't want to wake you up, so I settled you here. I thought a lot about the way to send you, and although I still think I'm right, my mentor and what you did were not wrong. But when I leave, I'm afraid that there is no place for me to stand in the big martial arts. In vain my reputation as a gentleman and sword, in the end, I ended up disloyal and unjust. But please rest assured, little brother, I won't go back to Chuanbeipu, and I haven't figured out where to go. The road is under my feet, and I will follow my feet wherever they go. There is no longer such a person as a gentleman's sword in the martial arts, and you don't have to come to me again. Although I have only been with you for a short time, I also know your benevolence and righteousness. We can also be regarded as looking forward to the year, and being able to meet a real hero like you before leaving the rivers and lakes can be regarded as the creation of someone in my village. If it is really our fate that is not over, then there will be a chance to meet one day. Don't forget to call me Brother Zhuang at that time. Shangguan Qianye clenched the letter in his hand, and his eyes were moist.
