Chapter 26: The Pavilion in the Heart of the Lake (3)

In that year, the Liao army attacked the city of Shanzhou, led by the Liao general Xiao Tzu Rin. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Xiao Tzu Rin is a famous general of the Liao Dynasty, with strong martial arts, courage and strategy, and has followed the Liao lord to lead troops to attack the Song Dynasty many times. Outstanding meritorious service, all the way to the promotion, by the deputy deployment of the army, promoted to the southern courtyard of the superintendent, after the eastward expedition to Goryeo victory, and then into the Lanling County king, Nanjing unified army envoy, prominent for a while.

The Song generals all called it 'a genius who has a natural talent, and a martial artist who has peerless magical powers', and even the famous Song general Yang Ye and Yang Lao Linggong were also captured by Xiao Tzu Rin Design in Shuozhou. In the first battle of Lanzhou City, the Song army was defeated, but they just held the city gate and waited until Xiao Tart Rin was killed by an arrow at the head of the city, which saved the battle and defeated the Liao army.

Zhong Yunlang couldn't help but be surprised when he heard Ning Panqing talk about this: "What's the matter? Wasn't Xiao Tzu Rin shot by Zhang Gui, the head of my Great Song Weihu Army, with a bed crossbow at the head of the city?"

Ning Panqing said with a smile: "Shot by Zhang Gui? Why don't you say that it was shot by Wang Qinruo and Wang Xiangye? That Xiao Tzu Rin is not an ordinary general, his martial arts are extremely high, it should be, it should be able to stand side by side with the Su Sect Master of the Zhengyang League." Let me ask you, if Sect Master Su goes into battle to meet the enemy, will he be killed by a small arrow from the Liao army?"

Zhong Yunlang was taken aback at this time: "Is Xiao Tart Rin so powerful? But maybe, it's my Great Song sergeant who fired arrows in unison, and the Liao general Xiao Tzu Rin couldn't avoid it......"

Ning Panqing retorted, "Have you listened to Wang Xiangye's battle report? It is said that Xiao Tzu Rin was shot by Zhang Gui's bed crossbow and died with an arrow. It can be seen that it is not a random arrow. ”

Zhong Yunlang thought about it, it was really good, and muttered in his mouth: "It seems that this is really Wang Xiangye's robbery, and he attributed this credit to his henchman Zhang Gui?"

Ning Panqing continued: "In the first battle of Lanzhou, Mu Lao Hero and my father went to the war with a group of heroes from the rivers and lakes, do you know?" Zhong Yunlang nodded and replied: "Hmm." That's natural, the thirty-six heroes and heroes are all good hands in my Central Plains martial arts, and they are called 'Five Tigers, Eight Biao, Six Heroes and Thirteen Heroes'. It's a pity that these heroes have only passed down the name of 'Five Tigers, Eight Biao, Six Heroes and Thirteen Heroes', and there is very little circulation on the rivers and lakes about their specific identities. I don't even know which one of them is. ”

Ning Panqing looked at Zhong Yunlang on the side of her head: "Are you a disciple of Old Hero Mu?"

Zhong Yunlang put down his wine glass and walked to the pavilion, still blown by the wind and snow.

Ning Panqing saw that his face was sad, a little worried, and hurriedly followed.

Zhong Yunlang said slowly: "When the first master returned from Lanzhou City, he was already ...... It's become a stupid ....... I asked for a doctor, but I couldn't cure him. Not only is the cure not good, but Shizun's body is getting worse day by day, and even the autumn god doctor can't do anything. ”

Ning Panqing's heart jumped: "Oh, I actually forgot about this." When his master returned, he was stupid and couldn't speak, and the people around him didn't know about the old things, and he had been in the court for a long time, so he didn't know. It can't be Wang Xiangye and Mu Wangye talking to him about the things of the year. Pity my father and Mu Lao Heroes are among the best, but in the end they end up like this. Thinking of this, my heart is also sour. Hurriedly said: "Master Zhong, I'm really sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned this matter......"

Zhong Yunlang shook his head: "It's okay." After a pause, he continued: "When I was in Hejian Mansion, my five brothers and all the officials didn't know about the old situation, and even the prefect didn't know about it. Later, I walked around and searched around, but I couldn't find any news. Last night, I accidentally heard the girl talk about the old things of Lanyuan, and I am still unsure, if the girl knows the details, I hope to tell you in detail. ”

"That's natural, my father, my father came back from Lanzhou City back then, and the situation was similar to that of Mu Lao Hero. Ning Panqing's heart was sour at this time, and her words were a little choked.

When Zhong Yunlang heard this, he was quite surprised: "What's the matter?"

Before Ning Panqing could answer, a voice floated from far away on the lake: "Qing'er, the world is impermanent, and you don't have to be so sad every time you mention your father." Ning Panqing listened to the voice and turned around: "Ah, it's Aunt Duan who has arrived." Zhong Yunlang was also quite familiar with this voice: "Aunt Duan, it turns out that this white-haired woman is surnamed Duan." ”

The person who came was the white-haired woman who made a big fuss about picking up the star tower during the banquet tonight. I saw her red clothes swaying, her white hair fluttering, and her feet swept rapidly on the surface of the lake, as if she was coming by the wind, and suddenly arrived.

Ning Panqing shouted, "Aunt Duan." The white-haired woman smiled and nodded, and when she looked at Zhong Yunlang, her face turned stern: "Muddy boy, you also underestimate your master too much." What 'Five Tigers, Eight Heroes, Six Heroes, and Thirteen Heroes', how can they be compared with your master? Do you also know that there were 36 heroes and heroes who went to the city of Lanzhou to help in the past, why don't you count it, the number of people in this name is enough for 36 people?"

Zhong Yunlang was reminded by her, and immediately thought: "Yes, the 'Five Tigers', 'Eight Biao', 'Six Heroes' and 'Thirteen Heroes' add up to only thirty-two people. He replied, "It is not enough, and there are four people missing." ”

The white-haired woman waved her sleeves, sat down on the futon, and said, "That's it, boy, listen up." The remaining four are all skilled and unique in martial arts, and the people in the rivers and lakes are called 'four divine powers'. Your master is one of these 'four supernatural powers'. ”

Ning Panqing saw that Zhong Yunlang was puzzled, and whispered in his ear: "The four divine powers are talking about the four masters of the Central Plains martial arts back then. Your master, and my father are among them. There is also Zhang Boduan, who looks at the city, and Su Tianhuai of the Zhengyang League. ”

She said this very lightly, and did not want the white-haired woman to hear it. Who knew that the white-haired woman stood up and waved her sleeves: "What kind of thing is Su Tianhuai, how can he be worthy of one of the four divine powers." Boduan, Boduan, he ...... He doesn't deserve it either. "Her internal cultivation has reached the realm of transformation, and she is naturally deaf and clear-sighted, and she can check the subtleties and distinguish the details.

Ning Panqing hurriedly stepped forward, helped her sit down, and said, "Aunt Duan, don't be angry, blame me for talking nonsense." ”

The white-haired woman stroked Ning Panqing's left hand and shook her head: "How can I blame you? ”

Zhong Yunlang saw that the corners of her eyes were worried, her eyebrows were sad, and she couldn't help but wonder: "This senior Duan's martial arts have reached the realm of transformation, is there any sorrow that can't be resolved?" Zhong Yunlang is still young, and those who have only cultivated martial arts to such a state must have no desires and no worries. But how did he know that there are many grievances and grievances in this world, which are intertwined and entwined in people's hearts, and no matter how high your martial arts are and how powerful you are, you can't resolve them.

Among the 'four divine powers', Zhong Yunlang didn't know Zhang Boduan, and it was inconvenient to judge whether the white-haired woman said something inappropriate. But this Su Tianhuai Su Sect Master, Zhong Yunlang is familiar with it. Under the rule of Su Zong, the Zhengyang League became more and more prosperous, and its disciples were chivalrous and righteous everywhere, and they were highly praised in the rivers and lakes. The bodyguards of the dart bureau in the league are diligent and thoughtful, there are few mistakes, and the reputation is also excellent. As for Sect Master Su himself, everyone said that he was heroic and chivalrous, and the world was cherished, no matter the rivers and lakes, they were all praised like this, without the slightest rebuttal.

Zhong Yunlang secretly said in his heart: "I don't know what kind of deep hatred this senior Duan has with Sect Master Su. Would a character like Sect Master Su actually offend her?"
