"Ah, it's finally here. Pen %fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Xiao Afei, look, the highest one among the mountains in front of you is Baiyun Peak. Zhang Yuting pointed to the mountains in front of her with her right hand and said to Ah Fei.

Ah Fei looked from afar and vaguely saw that there seemed to be houses and buildings on the mountain, so he said: "Sister Xiaoyu, is Yunzhuang built on the top of the mountain, I have walked so many roads in the past few days, and I have to climb the mountain again this morning, and I am tired to death." ”

Zhou Kun listened to it and said with a smile: "Yunzhuang, how can it be called Yunzhuang if you don't cultivate it on the top of the mountain next to the clouds? Aren't you very good at light skills, if you are afraid of climbing the mountain, wouldn't it be good for you to fly up for a while?" Ah Fei said: "My name has the word 'fly', and I don't really know how to fly, Brother Zhou, are you jealous that my light skills are better than you?" Zhou Kun said: "Joke, I'm jealous of you? No matter how good the light skills are, when you really fight with people, it is useless, so you can only use it to escape." Ah Fei snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "That's better than letting people catch it." Zhou Kun heard Ah Fei say this and knew that he meant something else, and said angrily: "What did you kid say, if not-"

"Fifth Senior Brother, stop talking!" Qin Zun shouted at Zhou Kun and interrupted him. Qin Zun didn't say much on the way back from Sanjiangkou - he felt that he was also a famous figure in the rivers and lakes, and he would be caught alive by a traitor's drug, and his face was naturally gloomy, and what was even worse was that he was rescued by a child, which was really a loss of face, and he was going to be laughed at by the people of the rivers and lakes. He saw that Zhou Kun and Ah Fei seemed to be about to mention the matter, so he stopped Zhou Kun with words.

Zhou Kun, Zhang Yuting, and Ah Fei, who were traveling with them, stopped talking when they saw that Qin Zun seemed to be in a bit unhappy, and the four of them went all the way to Baiyun Peak without saying a word.

At this time, it is late March and summer is approaching, but the mountain road is still slightly cool in the early morning. Ah Fei has lived in the water town of Jiangnan since he was a child, and he rarely climbs the mountains, so now he feels curious when he looks at everything. As he walked towards the mountain, he listened to the birdsong in the mountains, and thought to himself that the scenery here was very good, and birds and beasts were naturally indispensable, so his hunting crossbow would come in handy.

When they were about to reach the top of the mountain, Ah Fei Qin Zun and his party of four met more than a dozen Yunzhuang Zhuangding. After greeting Qin Zun and the others with farm tools, they left in a hurry, as if they were going to work in the fields. Ah Fei recalled that he had seen a large area of farmland at the foot of the mountain and on the mountain, and couldn't help but secretly say in his heart: "It seems that the entire Baiyun Peak belongs to Yunzhuang, and the owner of Zhang Zhuang has such a big family business! Grandpa often said that our Yujiazhuang is the first village in the south of the Yangtze River, and if you want me to see, this Yunzhuang is not much worse than our family." ”

The group walked up a little further and stopped in front of an iron door. Qin Zun was just about to step forward and knock on the door, but he didn't want the iron door to open with a "squeak", and a person jumped out of the door, and said with a smile: "Haha, the second senior brother, the fifth senior brother and the little junior sister are coming back!"

Everyone looked at it, and what they saw was a young man with a pair of short swords hanging from his waist, it was Fang Jin, the seventh disciple of Zhang Fangzhou. Zhang Yuting stroked her chest and said, "Seventh Senior Brother, you came out so suddenly, it scared me. Fang Jin said: "Hahaha, I'm sorry, I scared you." He looked at Ah Fei beside Zhang Yuting, and asked, "Who is this little brother?" Zhang Yuting said: "He is Xiao Ah Fei, the grandson of Yujiazhuang's predecessors." Fang Jin suddenly realized that he hugged his fist at Ah Fei and said: "It turns out that you are the grandson of the Lord Yu mentioned in the letter of the second senior brother. Ah Fei also learned from Fang Jin's appearance, hugged his fists and returned the salute. He saw that this Fang Jin was only wearing a linen sweatshirt on his upper body, with two bare arms, and he thought to himself that the bearded man really didn't deceive people, and this Yunzhuang disciple really didn't all wear white clothes.

After greeting each other, Zhang Yuting said: "Seventh Senior Brother, who is delivering food to the bamboo forest trail every day when I am not in these days?" The bamboo forest trail is the residence of Zhang Fangzhou's senior disciple Xu Yun on Baiyun Peak. This Xu Yun does not live with everyone in Yunzhuang, so someone goes to deliver food to Xu Yun on weekdays. In the past two or three years, Zhang Yuting has been going to the bamboo forest trail every day rain or shine, so she is very concerned about Xu Yun's diet when she goes down the mountain this time, and when she returns to the mountain today to see Fang Jin, she naturally asks about it first.

Fang Jin said: "Who else can there be, Baiqiao." This kid took the initiative to go, and in the past few days, he has been delivering food to the bamboo forest path, and he has discussed martial arts with the senior brother. Yesterday, when I broke up with him, I found that this kid's swordsmanship was obviously much stronger. Senior sister, now that you're back, I guess Bai Qiao must be unhappy in my heart. Zhang Yuting smiled: "Haha, then I must not let him send it, otherwise I will be better than me in a few **** efforts, and I will be the worst of us." Fang Jin shook his head and said, "Senior sister, even if you don't ask Senior Brother for advice, Baiqiao will make rapid progress by learning from Master every day." You see that he has only been on the mountain for less than a year, and his martial arts are already catching up with you, I think you may not be able to beat him in less than half a year. ”

There are nearly 100 people up and down Yunzhuang, and the Zhuang Ding servants in the village can practice martial arts in the village, but only eight people who officially bowed to Zhang Fangzhou were accepted as disciples by him. These eight people are: the eldest disciple Xu Yun, the second disciple Qin Zun, the third disciple Long Yiwen, the fourth disciple Ning Buping, the fifth disciple Zhou Kun, the sixth disciple Zhong Shidao, the seventh disciple Fang Jin, and the eighth disciple Zhang Baiqiao. Zhang Yuting is Zhang Fangzhou's daughter and is not among the disciples. Zhang Yuting is of the same age as Fang Jin and Zhang Baiqiao, so except for Xu Yun, who has been relied on since childhood, she has a closer relationship with these two people on weekdays.

Qin Zun saw that the two of them were chatting in front of the mountain gate, and the boss in his heart was unhappy. He looked at the fact that there were only two Zhuang Ding standing in the door, and he didn't see the other Yunzhuang disciples, so he said, "Seventh Senior Brother, are you guarding the mountain gate today?" Fang Jin hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, Second Senior Brother, I won't accompany you into the village for a while." Qin Zun nodded and said, "Okay, Master and Master are all right, what has happened in the village recently?" Fang Jin said: "Everything in the village is peaceful, and Master and Master are all in good health." Qin Zun said "um" and led a few people straight into the iron gate, and said coldly: "Fang Jin, you guard the mountain gate well, don't be distracted." ”

Fang Jin replied vaguely, "Okay", but he didn't know why this Qin Zun suddenly said such a thing, he has always worked hard in his work, when was he negligent? Maybe he did something wrong to displease this always strict senior brother, so he stopped talking, and ordered Zhuang Ding to close the mountain gate, and he sent an arrow to inform the people in Yunzhuang.

After this iron gate, what caught his eye was a long bluestone staircase, Ah Fei took a cursory look at the estimated that there were more than 100 stone steps, and he couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart, thinking that it was no wonder that these people in Yunzhuang had not been seen shouting tired in the past few days, so that the walking ability to go up and down the mountain every day was not good?

Walking more than 100 stone steps, Ah Fei was already out of breath, and his legs couldn't be lifted as if they were filled with lead. But when he was about to reach the top, he saw an open field paved with bluestone bricks, and there seemed to be stone steps not far ahead. Ah Fei looked at the stone steps in the distance and sat on the ground, and even had the heart to cry: "Sister Xiaoyu, how long will it take?" Zhang Yuting said: "It's already here, this is the bluestone platform, which is the place where we practice martial arts on weekdays." Do you see the more than ten steps in front of you, you can see my house when you go up, get up quickly, there are not many steps. ”

Although he said that, Ah Fei didn't even have the strength to stand up, his legs seemed to be not his own, they were sore and numb, and he couldn't lift them. Zhou Kun saw that he was indeed tired, so he reached out and helped him up: "How is it, no, right?" Seeing that Ah Fei was silent, he continued, "I'll help you hold this knife first, it's too heavy." Without waiting for Ah Fei to respond, he went to get the purple gold knife on his body.

Ah Fei was really tired and didn't want to speak, and he didn't even want to move, so he let Zhou Kun take off the purple gold knife. Zhang Yuting also carried the burden of the hunting crossbow in Ah Fei's hands in her hands.

After the bluestone platform, and then climb the stone steps, sure enough, I saw the gate of the courtyard, and a large plaque on the door said the word "Yunzhuang". When Ah Fei saw that he finally arrived in Yunzhuang, his mood suddenly improved a lot, and his body was suddenly full of strength, and he didn't feel tired. The gate of Yunzhuang was open, and a lean old man on crutches stood outside the door, as if waiting for a few people.

Zhang Yuting was overjoyed when she saw the old man and said, "Lao Chang, Lao Chang, we are back." Lao Chang said with a smile: "Miss, when I got up this morning, I was still thinking that you should come back, you see that I heard Young Master Fang Jin's chirping before I finished this morning's business, I know, you are back." Don't stand outside the door, come in, come in. ”

After entering Yunzhuang, Qin Zun said to Lao Chang: "Manager Chang, where is the master now?" Qin Zun nodded and said, "Then let's give the master a return first." Lao Chang said: "Go, go, you have done a good thing this time when you go down the mountain, and the lord will praise you." Qin Zun smiled, and then motioned for Zhou Kun and Zhang Yuting to go with him. Zhou Kun and Zhang Yuting returned the knife and burden to Ah Fei and followed Qin Zun.

Ah Fei saw that the three of them were leaving quickly, so he also wanted to follow, but he heard the old man cough and said to him: "Young Master Fei, please stay." Ah Fei stared at Lao Chang and pointed at himself, "Do you mean me?" Lao Chang said: "Of course it's you, and there is no one else here." You are here to send a reply from the owner of Yu Zhuang, and I will take you to see my lord in a while. So saying, he leaned on his crutches and closed his eyes and recuperated.

I don't know how long it took, but I saw Zhang Yuting running over and said, "Lao Chang, my father asked you to take Xiao Ah to fly over." Lao Chang opened his eyes and said, "Okay, Young Master Fei, let's go." Ah Fei picked up the burden and put the purple gold knife on his back, followed Lao Chang, and came to the main guest hall.

At the top of the hall sat a man dressed in white, who was born with a face like a crown of jade, eyes like a star, although he was already over the age of confusion, but still dignified and heroic. Ah Fei looked at this person's long beard, and felt that he was like a Taoist immortal in the Sanqing Temple, thinking that this person must be Zhang Fangzhou, so he didn't wait for Lao Chang to be introduced, stepped forward and hugged his fists and said: "Junior Yu Fei visits Master Zhangzhuang." ”

That Zhang Fang Zhou raised his hand and pointed to the chair next to him and said, "Virtuous nephew doesn't have to be like this, please sit down." I heard that you came to my Yunzhuang this time because you have a letter from the leader of the Yu Alliance to deliver to me?" Ah Fei nodded and took out the letter in his arms, and Chang Chang took the letter and handed it to Zhang Fangzhou.

When Zhang Fangzhou opened the letter and read it, he saw that Yu Wanting only mentioned a few words in the letter about the Tianwang Gang injuring Yu Jiazhuang's children in the name of Yunzhuang, and more words were asking him to stay Ah Fei to practice in Baiyun Peak, no wonder this old-timer would have to let his grandson personally deliver the letter.

He read the letter, looked at Ah Fei carefully, and secretly pondered: "There is no mention in this letter that I should take this child as an apprentice, but it just says that he should practice martial arts on the mountain. If I take him as an apprentice without permission, I will definitely displease the old farmer. But if I don't take him as an apprentice, I can't teach him martial arts alone every day. If he is allowed to practice martial arts with my servants in the village, it will be extremely disrespectful to Yujiazhuang. It's better to let him go to the bamboo forest path to follow Yun'er, Yun'er reminds him every day, and it is no different from me teaching him personally. ”

After Zhang Fangzhou made up his mind, he said to Ah Fei: "I heard Yu'er say that thanks to your rescue during the trip to Mingzhou, my three fools had to escape the disaster." Yujiazhuang has a young hero like you, and he is blessed with a good life. ”

Ah Fei frowned when he heard this: "Where am I a young hero, Master Zhang, you praise me like this, I ......" In addition to his grandfather Yu Wanting, it was the first time he saw a world-famous hero like Zhang Fangzhou, and when he praised himself like this, he didn't know what to say for a while, and his face suddenly turned red.

Zhang Fangzhou smiled and raised the letter in his hand and said, "Virtuous nephew, do you know the content of this letter?" Ah Fei nodded hurriedly. Zhang Fangzhou stroked his long beard and said: "I have many disciples in the village, if you practice here with me, I am afraid that there will be places that will not take care of you." You see that this is good, you accompany my eldest disciple Xu Yun and let him guide you in martial arts, how about it?" Ah Fei nodded again and said, "Master Zhang, I will listen to you." ”

Zhang Fangzhou bowed his head and said: "Virtuous nephew, your father's 'Jiangnan Sword King' also had some friendship with me back then, I am commensurate with his brother, if you don't dislike it, call me 'Uncle Zhang', it seems too much to call me 'Zhuang Master'." Ah Fei still nodded and said, "Okay, Uncle Zhang." ”

Zhang Fangzhou said to Lao Chang, who was sitting on the side: "Lao Chang, you lead him to the bamboo forest path." Lao Chang sat on crutches as if he was dozing, and when he heard Zhang Fangzhou's words, he opened his eyes and said slowly: "Master, let Young Master Fei go to the wooden house, will it disturb Young Master Yun?" Zhang Fangzhou sighed and said: "It's been ten years, can't Yun'er want to be trapped in the bamboo forest? It may not be a good thing to have someone by his side." ”

Lao Chang nodded when he heard this, and then stopped talking. I saw him slowly get up on crutches, walked to Ah Fei's side, took Ah Fei's hand and said, "Master, then I'll take Young Master Fei with me." With that, he took Ah Fei out of the house.

After walking north after leaving the main house for a while, Ah Fei saw a large door, in front of which three people were guarding, and the first one had a scimitar hanging from his waist. The man saw Lao Chang coming slowly, so he stepped forward and said, "Lao Chang, do you want to see Senior Brother?" Lao Chang coughed twice and said, "Yes, please open the door for Young Master Zhong." ”

This is the back door of Yunzhuang, and the one who speaks is Zhongshi Dao, the sixth disciple of Yunzhuang. After Zhong Shidao instructed Zhuang Ding to open the door, Lao Chang took Ah Fei out of Yunzhuang. Walking straight down the small path outside the village, it didn't take long to see a large dense bamboo forest. Ah Fei looked at the bamboo forest and asked, "Old Chang, is this the bamboo forest path?" Lao Chang nodded and said, "Yes, our Young Master Yun has lived here for almost ten years. ”

Ah Fei heard Zhang Fangzhou's words, and he had long been puzzled in his heart, but now when he saw Lao Chang talking about it again, he asked, "Then why doesn't he live in Zhuangzi?"

Lao Chang said in a low voice: "Young Master Yun said that it is good here, it is quiet to live, and it is convenient to practice martial arts." But I see, he seems to have a knot. ”

Ah Fei then asked, "What heart knot?"

Lao Chang shook his head and didn't speak. Ah Fei didn't know if he didn't want to say or didn't know, and when he saw that he didn't say anything, he didn't ask anymore.

The bamboo forest was so quiet that it seemed that only the sound of the old crutches and pestles could be heard. After walking for a short time, I saw a wooden house, which was fenced off with a bamboo fence and enclosed a large open space, which was supposed to be the courtyard of this wooden house, and there was only a stone table and two stone benches in the courtyard, and nothing else.

There was no sound in the forest, but at this time, the two of them heard a sharp voice from the wooden house: "Thank you Young Master Yun, thank you Young Master Yun! I will never forget your kindness when I develop in the future!" Ah Fei saw that he was walking fast, so he also stepped up.

When the two entered the courtyard, they saw a man with sinister eyebrows and rat eyes coming out of the house, and the man had two mustaches on his lips, which looked even more filthy. The old man saw this person and scolded: "Mao Mouse, sure enough, it's you rabbit cub! You came to borrow money from Young Master Yun again to gamble, didn't you?" The Mao Mouse saw Lao Chang's face turned pale with fright, and hurriedly said: "Manager Chang, listen to me, I take this money...... It's about winning back what you lost before. When I win it back, I'm ...... I will even return the principal and interest to Young Master Yun. Lao Chang raised the cane in his hand and said, "You try to talk nonsense again? I have to break your hand today, so that you can no longer gamble!"

At this time, another man's voice came from the house: "Lao Chang, let him go, what are you doing to hit him?" Although there was a man in the room talking, his voice was very gentle. Lao Chang shouted at the house: "Young Master Yun, you can't indulge him like this, the one who opened a gambling house in the town under the mountain will not worry about food and clothing all year round by relying on him." I have to teach him today to quit gambling. Xu Yun said in the house: "Let him gamble, who doesn't have a hobby." Mao mouse, if you lose the bet, come to me to take it, anyway, I have the silver here. ”

When the hairy mouse heard Xu Yun let him go, he was overjoyed and said, "Okay, Mr. Chang, do you hear it, Young Master Yun let me go." Lao Chang sighed and put down his crutches. The hairy mouse turned his head and shouted at the wooden house: "Young Master Yun, I'll go first." Then he ran away. I always wanted to hit the mouse with a cane, but he twisted his waist and flashed and pounced.

Lao Chang shook his head and said: "Young Master Yun, don't lend him money anymore, he is addicted to gambling, you let him come like this, won't it hurt him?" Xu Yun said: "You always advise me to drink less, but you don't come by my temperament, I have no wine here, you immediately sent someone to send it, then you are also harming me? Besides, you also said that he is addicted to gambling, he can't quit like this, I don't give him money, what if he goes to someone else's place to steal money and rob money or dig up the grave of the dead, I give him money to gamble, he can do less hurtful things." Anyway, I don't have anything to do with the money allocated to me every month in Zhuangzi, so I might as well give him a gamble. Lao Chang shook his head and said, "Alas, Young Master Yun, I can't tell you, if you want to lend him money, you can borrow it, as long as you are happy." ”

Xu Yun said with a smile: "Old Chang, what you said, 'as long as you are happy', it seems that I am about to die." As he spoke, he paced out of the cabin.

Ah Fei saw Xu Yun coming out of the house, so he looked at him carefully.

This Xu Yun was wearing a green shirt, and his long hair was not tied up with a turban, just like that. He is about the same size as Ye Qi and Long Yiwen, higher than ordinary people, but he is not as thin as the two of them. His skin was also fairer than usual, probably because he had not seen the sun in the house all year round. His slender eyes are half-squinted, and he smiles when he is not smiling, and he looks like a gentle person, but the corners of his mouth droop slightly downward, as if there is infinite sorrow buried in his heart.

Ah Fei looked at Xu Yunxin and said, "I thought that he should be an older person than a bearded man as a senior brother, but I didn't expect him to be so young." ”

At this time, he listened to Xu Yundao: "I just heard that the footsteps don't seem to be from you alone, Lao Chang, who is this kid, and his light skills seem to be not bad." ”

Lao Chang held the crutches in both hands and said, "Young Master Yun, this is the youngest grandson of Yu Wanting, the old owner of Yujiazhuang, Yu Fei." Young Master Fei, this is our Young Master Yun. ”

Ah Fei waited for Lao Chang to finish speaking, then stepped forward to salute Xu Yun with a fist, and Xu Yun just smiled when he looked at him, then turned around and went into the house and said, "Come in and talk." ”
