Sixty-eight Joys and sorrows
Shangguan Ding was alone on the beach, waving a Pangu smile, practicing the impermanence tear technique that he had already memorized. The Iron Mountain Monk has also told him more than once that his advantage is his own speed, and with his talent, as long as he continuously improves his reaction ability and attack speed, even if he only has one move, it will be enough.
Shangguan Ding is an eighteen-year-old young man today, and he is no longer the not very sensible child back then. Although he still obeyed the advice of the Tieshan monk and practiced martial arts by the sea day and night, his heart was no longer as calm as it was back then.
He thought about Shangguan Qianye, thought about the three Zheng Kui brothers, and also thought about Ji Chunyan. Every time I think of Mei Feiyan, the childhood sweetheart of Shangguan Qianye, and then think about my sister Yanzi, my heart is always sweet.
From time to time, I will think of what I did the night of parting, and I am afraid that when Ji Chunyan will really never see and ignore herself again, she will be full of remorse.
Although he always has a lot of concerns in his heart, his own kung fu is still improving rapidly. According to Master's prompts, Shangguan Ding can already walk on the beach.
These days, he is also trying to slowly dive his body into the sea, and continue to increase his speed in the water.
It has been more than two months since the four Zheng Kui brothers went down the mountain, and the Tieshan monks also know the personalities of the four people very well in their dealings with them.
Although Zheng Biao and Geng Hongjun's personalities are more reckless, Zheng Kui and Shangguan Qianye, who are the eldest brothers, are more stable, so the four of them walked together, and the Tieshan monks were also quite relieved.
Wan Weiwang did not secretly follow the four of them down the mountain this time, but accompanied the master every day, in addition to the normal practice of martial arts, he still went down the mountain in a few days to listen to the latest news on the rivers and lakes and bring it back to the Tieshan monks and Shangguan Ding. The three masters and apprentices lived an ordinary life like a fairy on the top of the first mountain.
On this day, after the three of them had breakfast, Shangguan Ding, as usual, took Pangu Xiao on his waist and went to the beach alone. Wan Weiwang was sweeping the yard with a broom, and the Tieshan monk stood in front of the door and jumped into the sea, not knowing what he was thinking.
At this time, the sound of horses' hooves came from outside, and after a while, a person walked in from outside the mountain gate, and the person just entered the mountain gate and saw an old man standing at the head of the door, and a middle-aged man was cleaning in the courtyard.
Then he bent down and saluted: "The person who delivered the book in the lower sand gate, there is a letter to be handed over to the old alliance leader of Tieshan. After speaking, he held the letter in his hands, lowered his head and handed it forward.
Seeing that the visitor was very well-behaved, Wan Weiwang put down the broom, stepped forward and answered the message with both hands: "Please leave it to me." With that, he took the letter.
Tieshan lay man said: "Since you are the messenger of the quicksand gate, then please sit inside." Then he led the way and led the man to the main hall. And there are no tables and chairs in the main hall to entertain guests, but there are futons used to worship the Buddha, and the man also knows that the temple is bitter, so he thanked Wan Weiwang and the Tieshan monks and sat down.
Tieshan monk unfolded the letter and watched it, and saw that the seal was written by Ouyang Kun, the head of the Liusha Gate, and the words in the letter were very polite. The letter stated that Shangguan Qianye ascended to recruit relatives because of personal hatred, killed the enemy Cao Rang, and shocked Hetian Town.
Shangguan Qianye's actions and his own kung fu are very favored by Ouyang Kun and his little daughter, so Ouyang Kun wants to marry the little girl Ouyang Yuhe to Shangguan Qianye, but Qianye knows that he doesn't dare to make his own decisions about marriage, so Ouyang Kun wrote this letter to Tieshan Jushi, hoping that the old alliance leader will make a decision.
After reading the letter, Tieshan Jushi handed the letter to Wan Weiwang again. After looking at it, Wan Weiwang asked, "Master, I don't know what you think?"
Tieshan Jushi said: "The palm of the quicksand gate can be described as superior, and the reputation and reputation of the head of Ouyang in the rivers and lakes for so many years are also quite high, and it is also a good thing that Qianye can marry the daughter of the head of Ouyang Gate." After saying that, he smiled.
Wan Weiwang said, "Yes, Master, I see it that way too. Tieshan Jushi nodded and said, "You go and call Ding'er back quickly, and let him know about this good thing, after all, Ding'er and Qianye are brothers." Wan Weiwang agreed, then turned around and walked out of the mountain gate, heading straight for the sea.
From a distance, Shangguan Ding is like a lightning bolt gliding at extreme speed, shuttling constantly on the beach, sometimes entering the water and sometimes going ashore, and a series of movements seem so smooth. Wan Weiwang saw love in his eyes, he remembered that when Shangguan Ding first went to Shoushan, he was still a small child, and these more than ten years of hard work have made Ding'er really a rare master in the martial arts.
I watched Ding'er grow up, although they are called brothers, but my love for him and Qianye is the love of his infinitely tolerant father. Shangguan Ding waved Pangu Xiao and was practicing so much, and out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that someone was looking at him not far away, so he stopped and turned to look.
Seeing that Wan Weiwang was looking at him, he hurriedly sorted out his clothes and ran over and said, "Senior brother, why do you have time to come and see me practice today?"
Wan Weiwang said: "It was Master who asked me to call you back, and I have a good thing to say to you." Shangguan Ding said: "Okay! I'll go with my senior brother." So saying, the two walked side by side up the mountain. On the way, Shangguan Ding couldn't stop asking Wan Weiwang: "Senior brother, what is a good thing, you can tell me first." He asked, pulling Wan Weiwei's arm and shaking it.
Wan Weiwang really liked Shangguan Ding from the bottom of his heart, so he smiled and said, "It's news from a thousand nights." When Shangguan Ding heard Shangguan Qianye's name, his heart immediately warmed up, and he hurriedly asked: "Is it that my brother has won the champion championship and is a hero?" Senior brother tell me quickly, what kind of hero is my brother now?"
Wan Weiwang said: "Look at you, you are still a child, how can the news of the ring spread here so quickly? We are outside the customs, and you have never been to Songshan, far away from us." ”
Shangguan Ding said: "Yes, then what good news will there be?"
Wan Weiwang said: "It's Ouyang Kun, the head of the quicksand palm, who wants to marry his daughter to Shangguan Qianye, and they can't be the master, so they wrote to ask the master to decide." ”
Shangguan Ding jumped a few times after hearing this: "This is a good thing! But it's really a good thing! Senior brother, let's go now, or we won't miss my brother's wedding." ”
Wan Weiwang laughed and said, "You kid, you talk nonsense. Even if the master agrees, you have to wait until the champion is over and everyone's emotions are stable before you can slowly discuss the marriage, how can it be as fast as you think?"
Shangguan Ding nodded and smiled after hearing this, and then asked, "How did my brother come to the Quicksand Gate? and get acquainted with Ouyang Kun again? We didn't hear about passing through this sect on the way last time?"
Wan Weiwang said: "Yes, so I will tell you another good thing next." ”
Shangguan Ding said: "What's a good thing, senior brother say it quickly." ”
Wan Weiwang said: "Ouyang Kun set up a kiss for his daughter, Qianye didn't want to recruit any relatives, but saw Cao Rang under the ring. ”
Shangguan Ding said: "Cao Rang, what happened to Cao Rang of the Proud Sword Sect?"
Wan Weiwang looked at Ding'er with a smile and said, "Qianye killed Cao Rang on the spot, that's why this family affair happened." ”
After hearing this, Shangguan Ding laughed and shed tears, and said to himself: "My brother is more anxious than me, and such a good thing is not left to me." ”
Wan Weiwang and Shangguan Ding entered Chaoyang Temple one after the other. Shangguan Ding jumped into the courtyard happily, and shouted when he entered the courtyard: "Master, Master, let me read the letter." Wan Weiwang followed and walked in.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I felt that the atmosphere in the courtyard was not right, and there was another person above the main hall, who was covered in dust, and it seemed that he had just traveled a long way. And Tieshan Layman's expression was solemn at this time, and his face was not happy.
When the Tieshan monk saw the two of them coming in, he said to Shangguan Ding: "Ding'er, you should go to the apse to rest first." ”
Although Shangguan Ding was in extreme excitement, when he saw the master's expression and heard the master's serious words, he immediately didn't dare to be active anymore, and answered honestly, and then peeked at Wan Weiwang, and saw that Wan Weiwang was also puzzled, knowing that the master must have something else to do, and it was not good for him to know, so he turned around and went to the apse in a proper manner.
Wanwei Lookout entered the main hall at the foot, and the Tieshan monk pointed to the dusty man: "Prestige, this is Guo Jian, the top disciple of Ouyang Sect Chief." ”
Wan Weiwang hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Guo Shaoxia, Wan is polite." ”
Guo Jian heard that the Tieshan monk called this person prestige, and this person called himself Wan, he knew that this was the prestige of the people in the rivers and lakes who called him a loyal and righteous hero, and hurriedly fell over and bowed: "It turns out that you are a loyal and righteous man who is famous in the rivers and lakes, and the younger Guo Jian is polite." ”
Wan Weiwang hurriedly helped him up and said, "There is no need to be like this, everyone is from the rivers and lakes, and I am an old friend with your master, so you don't have to make this big gift." Although Guo Jian stood up, he still stared at Wan Weiwang with extremely envious eyes.
Wan Weiwang turned around and said to Tieshan Jushi, "Master, is something wrong?" Tieshan Jushi didn't speak, but just handed over another letter to Wan Weiwang, which was the letter that Ouyang Kun handed over to Guo Jian and asked him to send.
Guo Jian didn't dare to slack off, although the previous letter was sent first, Guo Jian hurried up, and as soon as the first letter was delivered, he also rushed to Chaoyang Temple. Although he didn't know what was written in the letter, from Ouyang Kun's expression, he could also guess that this matter was important.
Wan Weiwang received the letter in his hand, and when he finished reading the cover, his head was like a thunderbolt bursting, and his body was shaking. Fortunately, the Tieshan monk was beside him, stretched out his hand to hold him, and said in an extremely calm tone: "Prestige, you have to stand firm." ”
Wan Weiwang understood what the master meant, but he still didn't believe his eyes, and read the letter twice, and each time he saw it, his heart was like a knife. I never imagined that the four brothers who came down the mountain more than two months ago were like dragons and tigers, but now they are three dead and one injured. What's more, I don't know who is the mastermind in this matter.
The Iron Mountain Monk held Wan Weiwei's arm with his hand, and a strong supporting force came to Wan Weiwang and his body.
Wan Weiwang knew that the master would not let himself lose his temper in front of outsiders, so he pretended to be calm and said to Guo Jian and the first messenger: "Two, we already know the meaning of the letter, please follow me to the apse to rest." After speaking, he led the two to the apse, and after arranging it, he returned to the main hall to meet the Tieshan monks.
At this time, there were only two masters and apprentices in the hall, and Wan Weiwang could no longer hold back his grief, and his tears couldn't stop flowing. And the Tieshan monk also sat with his face Buddha, his eyes lowered, and he was speechless. The entire hall was instantly enveloped in this gloomy atmosphere, as quiet as dead ashes.
