"Gotta get ......"

The crisp sound of horses' hooves breaks through the silence of the early morning. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

On the twisting and turning mountain road, a man rode a crimson horse to the river, and he reined in his horse and looked around, as if he were looking for a boat to cross the river, but there was only a mighty muddy water in the river, but there was no ferry.

The man sighed, and had no choice but to turn back his red horse, intending to run to a small town not far in front of him.

The horse walked a short distance to the northeast on the muddy avenue, and suddenly saw another black horse coming from the opposite side, and through a layer of fog, it was impossible to see the face of the other horse.

But he was immediately frightened, and quickly jumped off his horse, his big right hand holding the hilt of the knife in the baggage roll, and he was about to pull it out.

The black horse on the other side approached, and he stared at it with two eyes in a hurry.

The black horse was a man in his forties with a short black beard, wearing a large hat and a black tarpaulin green coat.

The man here took his hand off the hilt, his heart was lowered, and he gasped.

When the black horse on the opposite side was approaching, the man on the horse raised his whip and pointed forward, and asked, "Is there a ferry over there?"

The man replied, "No, not one!" It was raining and cold, and the ferrymen were too lazy to come out!"

The man on the black horse smiled and said, "Then I'll have to rest here for a day!" and as if there was no urgency, he turned back to his horse.

The men also got on his red horse, and he noticed that the black horse had no baggage, only a sword, and the iron sword case was black and rusty.

He guessed in his heart: I don't know where this person is? Is it a bodyguard or a boxer? Otherwise, he would have gone to the rivers and lakes to eat black rice? He was surprised in his heart, so he followed the man.

The two horses walked together to the northeast in the rain, and each other had already come out, and they were both people who were used to walking the rivers and lakes, so they talked to each other and asked each other's names first.

The man riding the black horse had a calm attitude and said: "My surname is Tie, don't hate the cursive word, I am a disciple of Daqimen, and this time I came to participate in the ten-year 'Huashan Discussion of Swords' on behalf of Daqimen." I didn't go here yesterday because it rained, and I didn't think that the rain would not stop today, and there was still no ferry in the river, so I had to stay for another half a day! Friend, where are you from? What kind of business have you always done? Are you a bodyguard?"

When the man on the red horse heard this, he was astonished, but at the same time rejoiced. I thought: The rivers and lakes all know the name of the iron-blooded banner gate, he is a famous figure in the banner, I haven't seen him yet, I can't imagine that we can meet here today. He confided his real name, hugged his fists and said, "Iron Hero, I have admired your name for a long time! The brother was renamed Yuwen, and his father was named and.

Thanks to the promotion of the heroes of the rivers and lakes, nicknamed Chiyan, do you know me? I am the general of the Right Tun Guard of the Great Sui Dynasty. With that, he raised a long, iron-blue face and looked at the famous boxer.

Tie Bei didn't hate to think about it, but he never thought about it, so he said indifferently: "The name of my father Yuwen is like thunder, but Brother Yuwen, haha... Presumably, he is known as a big name, and his martial arts are strong, and he can be in Jiangdu City?

Chi Yanyu's culture and when he heard it, all the excitement was gone. The heart said: I thought that Tie Bei Hate must also know my reputation, but it turned out that he didn't know.

However, he could hear my accent, so he nodded and said, "Yes, my family lives in Jiangdu City, and I wander outside every year, and I don't have any free time, and I haven't been home for more than two years." This time, I finally took a month's leave from the emperor and went home to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival. So Tie Bei hated nodded.

Since the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, one of the characteristics is that the powerful clan developed by generations of noble families, some are called Gaomen or Gate Valve, which are clearly distinguished from the Shu clan of ordinary people.

The so-called 'upper grade has no poor door, and lower grade has no powerful family'.

Economically and politically, the nobles enjoyed great privileges. It was not until Yang Jian, the founding emperor of the Sui Dynasty, ruled the world and won the imperial examination, and the situation of the gate valve monopolizing everything was slightly broken.

But the gate valve is still unwielding, and the four surnames of the famous gate valve refer to the four powerful families surnamed Yuwen, Li, Wang and Chai, who have huge influence in politics, economy and martial arts.

Among the four surnames, only the three surnames of Li, Wang, and Chai belong to the southern wang clan, insisting on the authenticity of Han blood.

But the surname Yuwen, because it is located in the north, is quite deep. The surname Yuwen itself is a Hu person, but it has not been integrated into the culture of Middle-earth, and it is not surprising that many heroes do not know its prestige.

Soon the two horses arrived in the town, and together they entered a shop, and when the horses were handed over to the shopkeeper, they each found a room. Tie Bei hated to live in the north room, Chi Yanyu culture and lived in the west room, two or three rooms apart.

As soon as Chi Yanyu Wenhua entered the room, he took off his wet clothes, and first took his simple knife out of the luggage roll and put it beside him; his mind was tense all the time, as if there was some crisis lurking beside him.

The shopkeeper brought in tea and asked him what he wanted. Chi Yanyu waved his hand, he was very troubled and frightened in his heart.

I remembered that this time he came out of Daxingcheng (now Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province), with more than 100 taels of official silver earned in the past two years, and wanted to go home to spend a happy Mid-Autumn Festival with his wife and children, but unexpectedly caused trouble on the way, and the fault was still on him.

Chi Yanyu was originally a good man who concentrated on practicing kung fu, and he was not a good woman, but that day he walked in Xinfeng County and met his friend Yang Su, who was a fellow official, and left him for a day, drank a few glasses of wine, and went to Wangjiazhuang to watch the wild stage opera together.

Unexpectedly, I saw a girl in the stands, and Yu Wenhua didn't see whether the girls were ugly or handsome, but I thought they were probably wearing a pair of red embroidered shoes;

It turned out that the girls were Wangjiazhuang's grandmother Wang, and Uncle Wang is now on an errand in Xinfeng Mansion, and he is the famous iron rod Wang Shichong on the rivers and lakes.

At that time, there were many clansmen of the Wang family watching the play, most of them were young strong men; when they saw Chi Yanyu culture and their grandmother, they were angry, so they surrounded Yu Wenhua and put their fists and sticks together, and Yang Su also came at that time.

Fortunately, Yu Wenhua took the treasure knife, so he swung the knife and slashed four or five people, and fled on the spot. At that time, he didn't know how powerful Wang Shichong was with the iron rod, so he walked calmly to Luoyang, but someone in Wangjiazhuang had already secretly followed him and sent a letter to Wang Shichong.

As soon as Yu Wenhua walked to Xianyang City, he was intercepted by Wang Shichong. After more than ten battles, he knew that Wang Shichong's iron rod was very powerful, and his sword was no match for others, so he hurriedly urged the horse to flee. He thought that Wang Shichong would not be able to spare him, and he must have chased him down at this time.

Now that he could not cross the river again, he was really anxious and frightened, so he touched the handle of the so-called "thunderbolt" that was not very sharp, and frowned. The heart said: If Wang Shichong chases me down again, then I will be finished, and I will be injured if I don't die. I, a person who eats by walking the rivers and lakes, if I make a mistake, how can I mix in the rivers and lakes?

Suddenly, I remembered the iron don't hate who met Daqimen just now. Tie Don't Hate's martial arts must be much stronger than Wang Shichong, if I can make friends with him, cross the river with him and walk all the way, and then someone beats me, he must not stand idly by.

Thinking of it like this, Chi Yanyu's iron-colored long face showed some joy, and he hurriedly went out of the house to the north room to see the big banner Tie Don't hate.

At this time, the rain had not stopped, and Tie Bei was wiping the rain from the hilt of his sword with a handkerchief in the house.

As soon as Chi Yanyu Wenhua entered the room, Tie Bei said with a smile: "Please take a seat, Brother Yuwen." ”

Yu Wenhua also smiled and nodded. But he looked at the sword very carefully, and saw that the body of the sword was pale green, as if it had a lot of rust, but the two edges were very thin, and it looked quite sharp in that way.

Yu Wenhua said: "This sword of the Iron Hero has been used for many years, right? ”

Tie Don't Hate said: "You probably don't recognize this sword, this is a sword, good at cutting nails and chopping iron, a total of two." Ordinary swords are divided into male and female, but this sword is divided into brothers, one is a dragon Tengyu, and one is a white dragon Yinfeng; My current mouth is the Canglong Tengyu Sword, which has been with me for fifteen years.

When Tie Bei hated to speak, he looked at Yu Wenhuaji, wiping the sword in his hand, and his attitude was very exaggerated, but Yu Wenhua couldn't see what was so good about this sword?

Tie Bei Hate then said: "Brother Yuwen's nickname is Chiyan, presumably because of the treasure knife in your hand. ”

Yu Wenhua couldn't help blushing, and said: "It's good that I have a treasure sword, but it's not because it's named, it's because I practiced the long-lost martial arts of 'Red Flame Ice Xuanjin' in the rivers and lakes." ”

After hearing this, Tie Bei smiled and said, "I see!"

Yu Wenhua returned to the house and picked up the sword with a thick back and a thin blade. Xin said, "Just let him see it!" “

When I got it in the north house, I handed it into the hands of Tie Bei Hate, and said: "This knife was given to me by a friend, and it is known as 'Crash Thunder', because I beat Shang Shifu and Xin Wenli, two chivalrous men in Yanzhou Mansion, Shandong, and saved my friend's life, and my friend spent 180 taels of silver to beat this knife and give it to me."

I took him, broke through the mouth of the tiger, beat Luo Shixin, and in Shaohua Mountain, I also fought weapons with this thunder: papier-mâché gold hammer Qi Guoyuan, the day before yesterday in Xinfeng Mansion......"

He was embarrassed to say any further, because the day before yesterday in Xinfeng Mansion he ate Wang Shichong's iron rod, if it weren't for his quick hands, he quickly used this knife to fight the enemy, his head would have been shattered at that time, and now he can't speak.

But Tie Bei didn't listen to what he was proud of in his life, and just concentrated on looking at the treasure sword. He flicked it with his hand, flicked the blade again, and then picked up his sword and returned it to Yu Wenji.

He got up and smiled and said, "Can you give it a try?" Your knife is good, but I don't think it can be as sharp as this sword. Let's try to bump into it?"

Yu Wenhua hesitated, and said in his heart: If his sword is really a sword and breaks my sword, then I will even lose people!

He was about to shake his head, but unexpectedly, Tie Bei Hate swung his sword and slammed it towards his knife, only to hear a "choking" sound, and Yu Wenhua's sword was cut in two. Tie Bei couldn't help but laugh with joy.

After laughing, he patted Yu Wenhua on the shoulder and said, "I'm sorry! I'm too presumptuous, in the future, I will send a good knife to your mansion in Jiangdu City!" Yu Wenhua and the treasure knife was destroyed, and he threw the half of the knife in his hand to the ground in a fit of anger.

His long face was blue and purple, and he couldn't wait to fight with Tie Bei Hate immediately. But he didn't dare to do it after all, so he forced himself to breathe, but instead acted as if he didn't care, waved his hand and said, "What is this? Iron Hero, you are too stingy with my Yu culture!"

Tie Bei was very sorry at this time, and even said: "My temper is too bad, as long as I see someone with a good blade, I want to try it with a sword." We met for the first time, and I really shouldn't have been!"

Yu Wenhua smiled and said: "What are you polite? Although it is the first time we have met, I have long admired your Iron Hero's name, but I didn't know that Iron Hero had such a sword."

Okay, in the future, I can only rely on the 'Red Flame Ice Xuanjin' to walk the rivers and lakes!" "The more generous Yu Wenhua is, the more ashamed he will be. And he said many sorry things, and called the shopkeeper to set out the wine, and the two of them drank freely in the room.

Both of them drank a lot, and the two were drunk, and they talked very similarly, as if they had become friends. At this time, the rain outside the window was still falling.

After finishing breakfast in the Tie Don't Hate House, Yu Wenhua returned to his own room, and stomped his feet and cursed: "Damn! Destroying my treasure knife with his bird sword is looking down on my right guard general, just pay two sentences and feed a few sips of wine? I Yu Wenhua is not so easy to bully, sooner or later I will take this breath!"

I don't know how many times, I suddenly heard someone outside the window shouting: "Brother Yuwen, Brother Yuwen, there is a boat in the river, let's go together!" Yu Wenhua turned over, opened the door and saw that it was Tie Bei Hate wearing a big hat, wearing a raincoat, and leading the horse to stand in the rain.

Yu Wenhua asked: "When is it now!" Tie Bei said hatefully: "It's only past noon, if the horse is fast to cross the river, we can stay in Yangzhou at night." "Yu Wenhua heard that he could go to Yangzhou tonight, and when he arrived in Yangzhou, Wang Shichong would definitely not be able to catch up. He even said, "Good, good." ”

He called the shopkeeper to prepare his horse and pack his luggage, and tried to take his sword again, only then did he realize that the knife had been broken by the sword that Tie Bei hated. I was so angry that I didn't want to go with Tie Bei Hate, but I thought: At this time, I don't even have a weapon to defend myself, if Wang Shichong chases me down, what can I do with his iron rod?

He got on his horse, rode on his back, and galloped to the bank of the Yellow River in the rain. At this time, there were two ferries in the river, but there was not one of them. Iron Don't Hate went forward and negotiated the price with the boatman, and then the two of them led their horses to a boat, and the boat sailed leisurely. It was raining above, and there was rolling muddy water below, and there was no one on either side, and there were only two boatmen on board.

Yu Wenhua and the horse stood on the board, although he didn't feel dizzy, but he was a little scared.

If he is a bad person, and he ventilates with the iron rod Wang Shi, at this time, I will fall into the river and drown, and they don't even know about my wife and children. So he opened two suspicious eyes and looked at Tie Beihate.

Tie Don't Hate, but calmly gossip with the boatman. For a long time, Yu Wenhua and Caipan got to the other side. When he landed on the shore and got on the horse, he became happy and said to Tie Beih: "Tie Daxia, let's go away! Rush to Xuzhou City, and I have to go home quickly after staying overnight, otherwise my wife and children will be in a hurry when they leave!"

Tie Don't hate and said: "I also want to go home to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival." I don't have a wife, I only have a daughter, I'm only 19 years old this year, I'm really smart and clever, if I hadn't been going to participate in the 10-year 'Huashan Discussion of Swords' this time, I really wouldn't have made this trip. Yu Wenhua and said: "Hurry up! Iron Man, your horse is in front, go quickly!"

Tie Don't hate to urge the horse forward, and stop talking. However, although his sword was sharp, his black horse was not fast, and the road was muddy, and it was very difficult to walk, and he walked for half a day, and only walked more than thirty miles.

Yu Wenhua and he looked back from time to time on the horse, but then saw two horses galloping in the distance behind him; Yu Wenhua was shocked, urged the horse to cross the iron hate, and shouted urgently: "Hurry up!"

Tie Bei also looked back, he reined in his horse, smiled calmly and said to Yu Wenhua, "Don't be afraid, if your enemy comes, my sword will stop it." ”

Yu Wenhua panicked, there was no treasure knife in his hand, and the two horses that chased him from the rain were none other than Wang Shichong and his helpers.

Wang Shichong was far away, and immediately raised his big walnut-thick iron rod.

Yu Wenhua and urged the horse to run a stone's throw away, and the ground slipped, and the horse's front hooves curled up, almost knocking him down.

Seeing that Tie Bei Hate drew his sword in his hand, he turned his horse to meet the two men, and without knowing what they had said, they jumped off their horses together and started to move.

Wang Shichong's iron rod smashed down on the top of Tie Bei hate, Tie Bei hated but didn't use his sword to greet him, he dodged away, unfolded the Canglong Tengyu Sword, and stabbed at the enemy in the opposite direction. Wang Shichong hurriedly took a diagonal step back, and hit the sword with an iron rod; Tie Don't hate but withdrew the sword back, shrugged up to Wang Shichong's back, and slashed the sword straight down, Wang Shichong hurriedly turned over and went to meet the horizontal stick, only to hear the sound of "dang", even Yu Wenhua here heard it very clearly, and the iron rod was cut into two by the sword

Wang Shichong was shocked, and immediately took a few steps back, although he still carried half an iron rod in his hand, he didn't dare to fight again.

His helper retreated into the distance. Tie Bei said a few words to them with a smile, and then calmly got on his horse, caught up with Yu Wenji, waved his hand and said, "Don't be afraid! I have beaten them back!"

Yu Wenhua was so frightened that his face turned pale at this time, and he thought: Good guy, the walnut-thick iron rod can be cut with a sword, I'm afraid he can also cut off the iron pillar, right?

Immediately, he walked more than ten miles south with Tie Beihan, and when he looked back and saw that Wang Shichong's two horses were gone, he gasped for breath, and his face gradually changed, and the two horses also walked slowly.

Yu Wenhua's two eyes looked greedily and amazed at the sword beside the saddle.

Tie Bei hated the horse and slanted his face at Yu Wenhua and said: "Brother Yuwen, as soon as I saw you on the bank of the Yellow River, I felt that you looked panicked, I think there must be an enemy chasing you." I don't know you, and I can't help you to offend others, but I wounded your weapon in the shop, and I saw that you were an honest man, so I was willing to go with you to protect you.

We will go to Yangzhou tonight, and tomorrow I will find a good knife in the city to give you, and then I will accompany you to Danyang City, and we will break up again. Don't worry, with me following you, don't say it's Wang Shichong, it's the purple-faced king's golden fire stick in the vast sea; his martial arts and Wang Shichong's chess opponents are also heavy, and I can deal with them calmly.

It's just that I advise you not to molest women from good families in the future, because that is the most dishonorable thing for the people of the rivers and lakes!"

Yu Wenhua blushed when he was said, and defended again: "I was drunk that day, and I accidentally touched the feet of that girl, who knew that she was Wang Shichong's mother-in-law!"

Tie Bei hated to see Yu Wenhua and his embarrassed appearance, he felt that this person was honest, and couldn't help laughing, so he said, "At this time, we should leave quickly!" So he let the horse go, and Yu Wenhua and urged the horse to follow closely.

After walking more than 30 miles, he actually lagged Yu Wenhua's horse more than half a mile behind, Zhang San gasped, hated in his heart, and said: "Don't hate! Just now, your horse turned out to be deliberately walking slowly, in order to make Wang Shichong catch up with me, so that you can show your skills and show off your sword." He's really damn bad-hearted, I don't accept your help!"

The two horses went straight to the twilight, and the rain had not yet stopped, and they had already come to the city of Yangzhou in ten miles.

From Yangzhou to the east of the Yangtze River, you can go to sea to the Wa Kingdom, Ryukyu and Nanyang places, so Yangzhou has become one of the most important transfer stations in the country, busier and more intense than any city.

Today, however, the atmosphere is a bit unusual, as there are a large number of officers and men inside and outside the city, and the inspection of customs clearance is much stricter, and there are long queues of exhaustion.

However, although everyone was anxious, no one dared to complain, because the people who were used to running the rivers and lakes saw that there were many big men wearing janissaries among the local officers and soldiers, and unless they didn't want to die, who would dare to blame the most domineering imperial guards from the capital.

There are a total of five markets in the city, among which the South Gate Market facing the Yangtze River is the most prosperous, and there are dozens of stalls offering all kinds of food, which are of different sizes, making it an ideal place for passengers who are ready to take a boat to the river.

In addition to being the hub of transportation, Yangzhou is also a famous fireworks resort since ancient times, whether it is a wealthy businessman with a lot of money, or a famous man with literary style, a swinger of fencing, if you do not visit here, you are not a good man in the wind and moon field.

Therefore, the situation is prosperous, and we can meet each other.

Qionghua, Slender West Lake, fireworks spring rain.

Outside the north gate, Fulai Inn.

It was the most famous restaurant in Yangzhou City, and the shopkeeper was very familiar with Tie Beiqi, and greeted him: "Tie Daxia, you are back from the old age! You have been walking here since the end of June, and it has been more than a month now."

Do you two live in one room, or do you have two rooms?" Tie Bei said to him, "Find two private rooms!" and the shopkeeper found them two private rooms next to each other.

When Yu Wenhua arrived in the house, he was really tired, he lay on the bed and gasped for a few breaths, and said in his heart: On this day, even the air is frightened, coupled with the wind and rain, it is really sleepy and tired. If you live like this every day, you must die.

Across a board wall is the house where Tie Bei hated to live, and the light shot into this house from the crack in the board, and Tie Bei hated happily humming a laughing song in that room.

Yu Wenhua suddenly got up again, looked through the cracks in the board, and only saw Tie Bei Hate holding the Canglong Tengyu Sword with both hands, and examined it carefully in the light, as if he was still not at ease, but he was afraid that when he broke the iron rod today, he would damage his blade.

As soon as Yu Wenhua saw this sword, he forgot that he was even tired, and he wanted to get the sword in his hand through the wall, so he jumped out of bed and walked to the house where Tie Bei hated.

Tie Bei Hate raised his head slightly and asked, "Brother Yuwen, don't you feel tired today?"

Yu Wenhua said with a smile: "I'm not tired, I'm not tired, no matter what, I've been wandering around the rivers and lakes for more than ten years, and I'll be tired today?" Tie Bei said with a smile: "Good spirit! Later, I have a nephew to come, and I will invite you to drink." ”

His eyes were still fixed on the blade. Yu Wenhua also walked over and asked happily, "Didn't it break?"

Tie Bei hated and raised his head and said, "That can be broken? Don't say that Lu Yinsong only came with an iron rod, even if he came against the iron house, I will also use this sword to cut him off." Believe it or not, where is the slightest bit of damage?"

Yu Wenhua took the sword, and his hands trembled. Approaching the lamp, he looked at the sword carefully and repeatedly, and even the seven gold stars embedded in the sword, he stared at it with wide eyes for a long time.

He really hoped that Tie Bei Hate would suddenly be generous, and said, "Give it to you! As compensation for your treasure knife!" But Tie Don Hate hurriedly asked for it, and tried it with a velvet towel, as if he was afraid of getting Yu Wenhua and the stinky sweat on his hands.

Yu Wenhua and his eyes were stunned, Tie Beihate took the sword and put the box on the bed, and saw Tie Beihate pointing to the stool and said, "Please sit." He also said, "The dragon is raining, the white dragon is winding, and the two swords are all in my hands."

Because the size of the white dragon chant is shorter and the weight is slightly lighter, I gave it to my daughter to use. ”

Yu Wenhua hurriedly asked, "How is that white dragon sword compared to this Canglong sword? If the two collide together, that mouth will be damaged?"

Tie Don't Hate said, "It's the same." Of course, the things that are cast at the same time in the same furnace are not divided into upper and lower parts, but the color is slightly different, which is probably because of the common and uncommon reasons.

However, the later ones not only divided them into brothers, but also divided them into good fortune. It is said that those who wear fierce swords invite disaster, and those who wear Peggy swords are blessed. Yu Wenhua asked, "So is this Canglong Sword a fierce or auspicious?"

Tie Bei Hate smiled and said, "This is a fierce sword!" As soon as Yu Wenhua heard Tie Don't Hate say that this sword was a murderous thing, his heart suddenly moved.

Tie Bei hated and said with a smile: "But I don't mind, because I think that all swords are murderous things, and there is still good luck there?" The disciples of Daqimen advocated that I should not be asked to bring it, saying that it could hinder the master, but I only laughed at it.

Of the two swords, I still like this one the most, because it fits my hand very well, and I have been wearing it for more than ten years, and I have not encountered any murderous incidents. ”

Yu Wenhua said with a smile: "That's other people's nonsense, in fact, there are so many exquisitenesses there? I think the more fierce the sword, the more it can ward off evil spirits!"

Tie Bei smiled happily and said, "Brother Yuwen, you are really right in what you said. When I was at home, I kept this sword next to my pillow at night, and I haven't even made a fuss with a thief for more than ten years.

Brother Yuwen, when you go back to Jiangdu, you can pass by Daqimen and come to my house to stay for two days, and I will also take out the White Dragon Yin Wind Sword for you to see.

My daughter was only nineteen years old, and she had mastered the sword so well that in a few years she would be able to draw with me.

I am forty-eight years old this year, and I will be half a hundred in two years, and I have been in the rivers and lakes for half a lifetime, and I have not made much money, and my wife has long since died, leaving only one daughter. My daughter and my two swords are my three treasures, as long as these three treasures accompany me forever, I will be satisfied in this life!"

After speaking, he sighed slightly and said, "Stay here for one night, and leave tomorrow." My daughter must be at home waiting for me. Yu Wenhua turned his back on the light, stared at his eyes, and didn't speak for a long time.

When I was young, there was a sound of footsteps outside the window, and a young man came into the house, and when he saw Tie Beihe, he bowed deeply and shouted: "Uncle!" Tie Bei Xian nodded, and then introduced to Yu Wenhua: "

This is my nephew Feng Manlou, this is the friend I made on the road, the famous right guard general of the Great Sui Dynasty, Chi Yanyu culture and. ”

As soon as Yu Wenhua heard him mention the general, he was ashamed. Feng Manlou bowed his hand to Yu Culture and said, "Long admiration!"

Yu Wenhua also bowed his hand and returned the salute, and then said: "You two talk, I'll go to that house." ”

Tie Bei hated him and stopped, and said, "My nephew is not an outsider, and the two of us have nothing to talk about. You wait, I'll tell the store to prepare wine, and the three of us will have a drink tonight!"

Yu Wenhua waved his hand and said, "I won't drink today! I have to sleep after eating, I don't feel tired, but ,...... I'm a little uncomfortable!"

Tie Bei said hatefully: "Ahem! Brother Yuwen, you are too narrow-minded, what is the matter during the day? Wang Shichong was cut off by me and his iron rod, he must know that I am Tie Bei hate, and he will never dare to bully Tie Bei hate's friend again. Besides, you don't have any grudges that you can't resolve?"

Yu Wenhua still waved his hand and said, "It's really not good! I'm dizzy now!" Tie Bei smiled and let Yu Wenhua leave.

Yu Wenhua returned to his house, and the store had lit a lamp for him. But he was really distraught, and he lay on the bed, only to hear the iron begging of the room say to his nephew: "This is an honest man, just rude." ”

Yu Wenhua was about to look into the house with the crack in the board, and then the shopkeeper came into the house and asked him what he was eating. Yu Wenhua was impatient, so he said, "Whatever! Whatever you want!"

The shopkeeper went out of the house again. Yu Wenhua sat on the bed and pondered, composing his iron-clad face. When he was young, the shopkeeper brought him a vegetable meal, and while he was eating, he was still thinking about things.

Thinking about it, he suddenly gritted his teeth, stood up, and stopped eating, so he called the shopkeeper to take the dishes and bowls away.

Listen to the uncle and nephew next door who are talking. Yu Wenhua brought the money, blew out the lights with a "poof", and quietly walked out of the house. At this time, the rain was still falling, as if it was heavier than the daytime rain.

Yu Wenhua walked into the street with his feet in the mud, and saw that most of the shops had already been on the door panels; he searched for a long time before he heard the sound of "ding-ding" striking iron in a shop. The double doors of the shop were hidden, and from the inside came the light of the lamp, which flashed like the light of a sword.

Yu Wenhua pushed the door and walked in, where two blacksmiths were doing night work, and there were sickles, hoes, pots, and so on hanging on the wall.

Yu Wenhua smiled and asked, "Is there a good knife?" The blacksmith stopped the hammer, turned his face and said, "What is it for?"

Yu Wenhua said: "Slaughtered pigs." The blacksmith said, "There is no knife for slaughtering pigs, but here there is a knife for slaughtering oxen, which is a little longer." ”

Yu Wenhua said: "That's okay. Because I have a pig waiting to be slaughtered at home, and I will have a treat tomorrow, but the knife at home is too blunt. ”

The blacksmith took out the knife and showed it to Yu Wenhua. Yu Wenhua looked at it and saw that it was more than a foot long, the tip of the knife was hook-shaped, and it was sharp; After leaving the iron shop, he hid the knife in his clothes and walked back to the store.

At this time, Tie Bei hated and talked happily to his nephew Feng Manlou. As soon as Yu Wenhua entered the house, he lay down on the bed gently, hiding the knife under the quilt, he was very nervous and impatient, looking forward to the wind full of buildings and going to bed early.

But I hope that Tie Don't hate to drink more wine. After waiting for a long time, the street had already knocked on the third watch, and the lights in the next room were not extinguished, and they did not see the walk, but the conversation between their uncle and nephew was less.

When it was almost the fourth watch, the door of the house was closed and the lights were turned off, and the snoring began one after another.

Yu Wenhua knew that the wind was staying with his uncle, and he couldn't help but feel annoyed in his heart. Hurry up and close the door gently, still lying on the bed with a knife in hand.

After thinking about it for a long time, he suddenly became discouraged again, and said secretly: This thing cannot be done! Tie Bei Hatred cut off my treasure sword, and on the way he deliberately walked slowly, Wang Shichong caught up with me, and he also used his skills to play with the sword; but a new friend, who is more famous than me, can call me a brother and a brother, and this can finally be regarded as a good name for me.

I should not have killed him for the sake of taking the sword. Besides, he is not a madman, and he may not be defenseless when he sleeps, and if I can't kill him and then ask him to kill me, it will be really unjust.

Suppose I kill him, his nephews and daughters will not be able to spare me, and sooner or later they will have to seek revenge on me. My dart job is smashed! I can't fit it! This idea is dispelled!

So his mind was refreshed. I took a long breath, and the knife was pushed next to my pillow, and I was about to fall asleep in a daze.

At this time, he suddenly heard the sound of "bar" in the neighboring house, the sound was very heavy, which startled Yu Wenhuahe, he quickly widened his eyes, listened to it, and listened to the laughter of Tie Bei in the house.

After laughing, Tie Bei asked again, "Have you picked it up?" and his nephew Feng Manlou said, "Pick it up and put it on the table." Uncle Shi, why do you always put your sword by your side when you sleep?" Tie Bei said hatefully: "It's been five or six years, and I am the same when I am at home.

Ever since your aunt died, this sword has always been with me, day and night!" he sighed again. The uncle and nephew began to talk again.

Yu Wenhua in this room only then realized that the sword had fallen to the ground just now.

He knew that the sword was now on the table, and that the table was only separated from his bed by a wall, and he couldn't help but be greedy: he wanted to use his own knife to cut a hole in the board, steal the sword, and then take advantage of the night to ride away quietly, but the uncle and nephew in the room no longer slept, and kept talking.

Yu Wenhua and his nerves were so stimulated that he couldn't sleep.

Suddenly the window turned white, and although it was dawning, the rain had not yet stopped.

Yu Wenhua and the cloaked clothes went out of the house to see, and saw that the drizzle was falling, a little smaller than yesterday, and the guests in each house were still asleep, but the door of the house was opened.

Yu Wenhua hurriedly returned to the house, hid the knife in the quilt, rolled it and tied it. After staying for a while, Tie Bei Hate put on a small jacket and entered the house, and asked, "Brother Yuwen, do you want to leave today?

In the afternoon, my nephew will bring you a knife, and you will leave tomorrow, and you don't have to pay for the meal, I have asked them to write the account. I've got to get back quickly. Last night I had a dream about my daughter, who must have been dreaming of me at home. ”

Yu Wenhua said: "Let's go all the way." I'm also in a hurry to go home, the knife is not necessary now, walk with you Iron Hero, what am I afraid of? Walking in the mountains, I don't have to run when I meet a tiger. Let's break up in Danyang City, I have friends there, I borrowed a knife from them and took it home. ”

Tie Bei said with a smile: "Okay, Brother Yuwen, you quickly clean up, let's go, go to Pony Town and have breakfast again." ”

After saying that, he also turned around and walked out of the house. Here Yu Wenhua and instead stood stunned for a while. When he was young, the shopkeeper had prepared two horses, Yu Wenhua and went out of the house, tied the luggage roll behind the horses, and Tie Bei Hate also came out of the house with a sword. The shopkeeper led the horse out of the door for the two, and Feng Manlou also sent him out to say goodbye to his uncle and Yu Wenhua and cherished.

Tie Don't Hate got on his horse and walked in front, Yu Wenhua rode a yellow horse behind, his eyes still staring at the sword next to the saddle in front of him.

The two horses left Xuzhou and went south along the sparsely populated avenue. After walking for more than 30 miles, the rain was heavier, and Tie Bei hated the oilcloth clothes he was wearing and went straight down;

They went down for more than a hundred miles, and when they came, they didn't have breakfast, for the rain was all around, and the heavens and the earth were chaotic like a pool of melted lead.

The rain flooded the road completely, and it was impossible to see that it was a cottage town; Yu Wenhua was so flooded that he couldn't open his eyes, and his mouth was panting, so Tie Bei hated to stop the horse, and he smiled and said a few words, because the rain was too loud, and covered his words; Yu Wenhua didn't hear clearly.

Tie Bei hated the horse and said loudly, "Don't go any further, find a place to rest!" Yu Wenhua nodded.

Tie Bei Hate followed his horse to discern the direction, and he took Yu Wenhua and the two horses slowly waded through the muddy water.

After walking for about five or six miles, I walked into a small village and town. There are only a dozen shops here, and I asked for two shops, and the guests were full, and there was no idle place, and later a person said: "There are two rooms in the backyard of the Mengjia Hotel in the east, and they also recruit guests to live, but there is no place to tie the horse." ”

Tie Bei hated Yu Wenhua and went to the hotel to inquire, and the hotel shopkeeper said, "If you didn't have a place to stay yesterday, and a guest left this morning to vacate a house."

I advised him not to go, but he did, and he had to be doused by the rain on the way. ”

Yu Wenhua said, "What should we do with these two horses?"

The hotel shopkeeper said, "It doesn't matter, I can take it to the Mao's store in the west." Tomorrow, when will you two leave, and when will I bring it back, there is no mistake. I've been open for three lifetimes!"

Yu Wenhua untied the luggage behind the horse, Tie Don't Hate also took off the sword, and the hotel shopkeeper called out a young man to lead the two horses away.

He led two customers into the store and into the backyard. The backyard was cramped and dirty. The two were let into a small room, which was as dark as a hole in the ground, with only a broken couch and not even a table or stool.

Tie Bei hated to throw the sword on the couch, smiled at Yu Wenhua and said: "This is really busy, today I wanted to take advantage of the rain to walk more and go home quickly, who would have thought that the rain would be so heavy." When?"

He asked the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper said, "It's almost dark, and Tie Bei said with a smile: "Nonsense, where is it so late? We haven't had breakfast yet, do you have anything to eat here?"

The shopkeeper replied, "Boiled noodles, donkey meat, and roasted yellow wine." Tie Bei smiled and said, "Okay, you can bring us all, we need more wine, because the weather is cold!" The shopkeeper agreed, and went out of the house.

Yu Wenhua took off his wet clothes and socks, took off his pants, twisted the water, and put them back on. Tie Bei Hate asked, "Don't you feel cold?" I don't have any extra clothes, you can put on my oilcloth clothes!" Yu Wenhua and the raincoat that Tie Bei Hate took off with him put it on.

He sat on the edge of the couch with the sword beside him, and his heart could not help moving; When he was young, the shopkeeper brought all the soju and donkey meat. Tie Don't hate it, he said to Yu Wenhua: "Come! Brother Yuwen, let's drink first! What are you doing? This rain must not fall until the Mid-Autumn Festival!"

Yu Wenhua also smiled, so the two of them drank, ate meat, and talked. When the soup was cooked, it was also cooked, and after the two finished eating the noodles, they still drank and talked more and more.

Today, Tie Beihe was even more happy, he drank a big glass and talked loudly, but Yu Wenhua took the cup, only touched his lips with wine, although his mouth was wide open, but he didn't drink much.

Tie Bei's face gradually turned red, and his tongue seemed to be shortened. Yu Wenhua poured him another full glass, but Tie Bei hated but waved his hand and said, "I can't drink anymore!

When he was young, Tie Bei hated to lie on the bed, closed his eyes slightly, grinned at Yu Wenhua, and said, "I really can't drink anymore, Brother Yuwen, you can drink alone!"

Yu Wenhua also smiled, still pretending to drink. In fact, his heart was very nervous, the sword of Canglong Tengyu was carved beside him, he could easily draw it out, and kill Tie Bei Hate with a sword, and then he picked up his luggage, found the horse and walked away.

But he didn't dare, he didn't know if Tie Bei Hate was really drunk or fake drunk at this time, so his hand still didn't dare to touch the sword.

After sitting quietly for a long time, Tie Beihate really closed his eyes and fell asleep "purring". Yu Wenhua was bold, his eyes looked at Tie Don't hate, and his subordinates slowly moved towards the sword.

Holding it, he held the cold and stiff sword tip in his hand, stood up suddenly, and looked back to see that Tie Bei Hate had not woken up yet.

Yu Wenhua gently pulled his roll over, and at the same time thought to himself: Do I want his life or not? If he does not die, when he wakes up, he must chase me; although I have a sword in my hand, I may not be able to defeat him. At this moment, Yu Wenhua sent out his ruthlessness, pulled out the sword with a "bang", and slashed at Tie Beihe's body. He only felt a burst of red light in front of him, and a miserable scream, Tie Bei hated to jump up and pounce on him, so frightened that he ran away from the house without caring about anything.

Before he got out of the hotel, he bumped into a person with a "bang", and the person screamed and almost fell.

He didn't see who it was, he ran away from the hotel, and he didn't know where to go, and he didn't care about the rain on his head and the muddy water under his feet.

After running for a long time, he didn't know how far he had run, and his anger couldn't be connected. When he saw that there was no one around, he stood still and gasped for breath.

At the same time, he realized that he now had nothing but an unsheathed sword in his hand, an oilcloth coat on his body, and a pair of wet trousers, and even his shoes had been lost.

He thought to himself: This is not good! I have been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and his men have not been injured, why are they so discouraged in doing such a thing? Without horses, money, and luggage, how can I go home? So I want to turn around and go back and take those things again, but I am afraid that Tie Bei Hate is not dead yet, and if that guy endures the pain and fights me, I am afraid that I am not his opponent.

At last he had no courage to go back, so he braved the rain and the water, and carried the sword, like a leper who had just bitten a man and landed in the river, and walked forward with his head down.

I often look back when I go, thinking to myself: Let's go! Anyway, I can go home like this, and I have this sword in my hand that sharpens copper and chops iron, what am I afraid of! In the future, I will practice swordsmanship, and then go to the rivers and lakes, and then I will become Canglongyu culture. No, I can't let anyone call me Yu Wenhua, you have to call me a big one: "Red Flame Canglong Yu Culture!"

At this time, although he was drenched in the rain, his heart was very happy. I also want to kill Tie Bei Hate in this deserted village town today, I'm afraid no one can know that it was my Yu Wenhua and what I did, so I was even more relieved, and slowly walked down for another seven or eight miles, only to hear the sound of a horse's hooves stepping on the muddy water behind me, Yu Wenhua and quickly looked back, he couldn't help but say in surprise: "Oops!" The one who chased down from behind was a white horse, and it was Tie Don't Hate's nephew Feng Manlou immediately.

It was too late for Yu Wenhua to escape, so he had to muster up the courage to swing his sword and stand by the roadside.

Before Feng Manlou could get close, he had already slashed his knife in his hand, and he shouted angrily: "Yu Wenhua! You forgetful thing! My uncle saved your life, but you hurt his life!"

As he spoke, he jumped off the horse and slashed with a knife. Yu Wenhua glared at the two fierce eyes and hurriedly met them with his sword. Feng Manlou pulled back the knife again, jumped to the left, and swept the knife across Yu Wenhua's waist.

Yu Wenhua was flustered, he didn't know how to use the sword, so he picked it up, and stepped back again, but Feng Manlou pressed tightly with a knife.

Yu Wenhua shouted: "Boy, do you want to die too?"

When he said that, he felt a pain in his right wrist, and the sword almost fell to the ground, so he quickly turned around and ran, and the wind was full of swords and chased after him from behind.

Yu Wenhua and in a panic, he almost fell to the ground, gritted his teeth at that time, and simply turned around and slashed the sword to follow the wind and fight for his life.

Although Feng Manlou's martial arts are high, he has to take care of Yu Wenhua and the sword in his hand, so his sword skills are always difficult to develop.

After about ten rounds of fighting, the two weapons collided together, only to hear the sound of "choking", and the single knife in Feng Manlou's hand was cut by the sword.

He also tried to dodge and turn around, and wanted to take Yu Wenhua and the sword in his hand with half a single sword, but Yu Wenhua and the majesty of Yu Wenhua at this time were greatly invigorated, and he used the sword as a knife, and slashed obliquely, and he forced Feng Manlou to kill him, and he wanted to take the horse.

Feng Manlou didn't dare to fight again, so he hurried over to grab his horse, Yu Wenhua and a sword from behind, but Feng Manhu had already gotten on the horse and ran.

Yu Wenhua was still chasing after him, and scolded and said, "Boy, are you considered a hero if you run away?"

Feng Manlou reined in his horse, turned around and sneered, and said, "Yu Wenhua, do you think you hurt my uncle in vain?"

Yu Wenhua was still chasing and scolding, wanting to chase to the town, and use this sword to kill for a while, but he couldn't run, and his feet hurt.

He gasped and said angrily: "Spare you, see what happens to me in the future?"

He turned and walked away, sword in hand, and he was very proud. Because of this battle, he increased his courage a hundred times, thinking that he was an invincible hero in the world. At this time, the autumn rain was dashing, and the twilight had covered the land and enveloped the town, and Yu Wenhua walked away like a vicious tiger.

Feng Manlou also hurried back to the hotel in the town, and saw that the local officials had arrived, and there were many good people, who crowded into this small courtyard to fight for it, regardless of the rain.

Tie Bei hated the groaning sound in the store was extremely miserable, and the wind was full of buildings and told everyone to get out of the way, and he squeezed into the store. When the official took the lamp to shine, he saw that the bed was full of blood, and the wound of Tie Bei hated was on the waist, and the situation was very miserable.

Feng Manlou couldn't help but fall into tears and said: "Uncle Shi, the murderer Yu Wenhua has already fled, but I must avenge Uncle Shi." Yesterday in Xuzhou, I saw that Yu Wenhua was not like a good person, but because my uncle kept saying that he was honest and generous, I didn't dare to say anything. Today, a friend told me that Chiyanyu culture has a very bad reputation in Jiangdu City, and I don't feel at ease, so I will chase it down quickly. I didn't expect that I was too late, and Uncle Shi would suffer such a strange disaster!"

Tie Bei hated and groaned for a long time before he could say a few words, and said, "Blame me for being careless! People dare to plot... I!...... Yuwen... Yuwen... Change... And... , what a fierce one... Unscrupulous... Heart's... People!"

And he said, "Vengeance is not necessary, but the sword must be recovered...... Hurry up and find my daughter... Come ......"

This famous boxer couldn't stop crying like rain at this time.

Feng Manlou frowned, agreed with tears, and turned around to leave, but the official stopped him and whispered to him: "You can't go! It's dark and it's raining, and you can't find his daughter on the same day, but I'm afraid your uncle's injury won't survive tonight." You're gone, and we can't even find a sufferer. ”

Feng Manlou shook his head and sighed anxiously, and asked again: "Can you find a knife medicine here?"

The official pointed to a crowd of people watching the excitement in front of the door and said, "This is the shopkeeper of the pharmacy, and he is the only pharmacy in this town." ”

Feng Manlou went over to ask the man, but the shopkeeper of the pharmacy said, "There is no knife to create medicine, only to pull out poison ointment." ”

The official said, "Where is the poison ointment?" Feng Manlou really felt helpless, and looked at his uncle with two teary eyes, only to see his uncle's breath gradually fading.

He hurriedly walked over in a panic, and saw his uncle Tie Bei hate's eyes suddenly wide, and said, "What a Yu culture! Sooner or later, my daughter will have to avenge me!"

His eyes widened for a long time, and suddenly he frowned again, moaned for a while, and did not make a sound.

His body shook for a while, and after a while, he lay dead on his back.

Feng Manlou held his uncle's hand tightly, tears welled up, and gradually felt that his uncle's hand was cold, so he cried and said, "Uncle ......" was so grief that he almost fainted.

This tragic scene forced those who watched the excitement to bow their heads and walk out. The official said to Feng Manlou: "It's useless for you to cry, I'll go and report to the county government, and tomorrow I will come to the autopsy and you will prepare the coffin!"

Feng Manlou nodded in agreement, and the official left.

Feng Manlou guarded the corpse here, and he cried and communicated all night, but did not sleep. The next day, before the rain had subsided, people from the yamen came to conduct an autopsy, and spread the wind to the county and asked some questions.

When Feng Manlou came back from the county, he bought a mouthful of thin wood from the people in the town, buried the iron of Daqimen, and hired a big car.

Because of the rain that day, the water on the road was so deep that the carriages and horses could not walk, and they were drowned here for another day.

The next day, when the rain stopped, the cart carried the corpse of Tie Bei's hatred and was escorted south by Fengmanlou.

This town is called Mijiaji, which belongs to Shangshui County, and it takes more than 100 miles to reach the hometown of Tie Bei Hate.

One cart and one horse, there are only two coachmen, one is full of wind, and then there is Tie Don't hate it when he sleeps in the coffin.

Although the rain has stopped, the haze has not yet opened, but the autumn wind is even tighter, and the road is full of muddy water, which is very difficult to walk.

In this bleak situation, it took two and a half days to rush with difficulty, and only then did he come to the ground of Xincai, and then he walked to the Jinlin Village where Tie Bei hated.

Feng Manlou was even more sad at this time, thinking, what can I say when I see the people in his family!

Tears dripped on the horse's back, and when he looked up, he saw a fruit grove on the opposite side, hidden in the smoke.

Feng Manlou said to the two coachmen: "The front is it." ”

The coachmen also looked up, but saw a white horse galloping in the woods, and when they got closer and closer, they saw that it was a woman of eighteen or nineteen years old.
