Chapter 4 Letterhead and Preparation
At the beginning of the rain, the insects and birds were all hidden, and there was silence between the heavens and the earth, so Situ Xuan could hear the extremely low cry. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Situ Xuan sat up in shock, and a little cold sweat unconsciously broke out on his body.
The more you listen, the more you can hear the low, depressed, sad and desolate cry, which is very terrible on this cold and rainy night in the cold and rainy spring season.
Although he was weighing it repeatedly in his heart, Situ Xuan's movements were faster, he got up in his clothes, and walked directly to the door of the main room.
When his right hand was pushed on the door panel, Situ Xuan's heart suddenly realized. Lao Yue, a person who wants to save face, if he lets himself see his gaffe like this, will he have the idea of extinguishing his mouth?
However, thinking of Yue Buqun's care for himself as a master and father, as well as the trust that surpassed everyone, Situ Xuan's finger finally knocked on the door.
"Knock, knock. ”
Yue Buqun's voice sounded in the room: "Is it Xuan'er? "The voice was a little low and hoarse.
Situ Xuan pushed the door in, and by the faint starlight, he saw Yue Buqun dressed neatly, sitting at the table, with an open letter paper in his hand, with tears on his face.
Yue Buqun rubbed the corners of his eyes with his hand and said, "Did you rest because of the noise?"
Situ Xuan asked in a low voice, "What's wrong, Master?"
After being silent for a long time, Yue Buqun pointed to the letter paper and replied: "The letterhead sent from home said that my father died at the end of last month. ”
Situ Xuan was a little surprised, he had never heard Master and Master mention Yue Buqun's family before, and thought that he was an orphan like Ling Hu Chong, and was picked up by Ning Qingcheng and returned to Huashan.
At this time, he suddenly thought that it seemed that Zhao Bufan had mentioned a sentence, saying that Yue Buqun was born as an authentic Confucian student, and he was familiar with the classics of scripture and history since he was a child, and he had participated in the scientific examination before entering the Huashan faction, and passed the children's examination, so he could be regarded as a well-known prodigy.
Yue Buqun glanced at Situ Xuan, and said slowly: "My father's official went to the north to be under the command of Si Zheng's five grades, and he was also born in the family of an official eunuch as a teacher. ”
Speaking of this, Yue Buqun smiled self-deprecatingly, and continued: "I studied the Four Books and Five Classics for my teacher, and soon showed his talent, he was well-read and knowledgeable, and he was able to specialize in Confucianism, and he also wrote the Bagu Wen beautifully. However, he grew up in Cangzhou, Hejian Province, which is the hometown of famous martial arts, and he also learned some fists and sticks when he was a teenager, and had a dream of being a chivalrous man. Until he was more than ten years old, he was seen by his master and accepted as a disciple, and since then he has worshiped Huashan and set foot in the rivers and lakes. ”
Situ Xuan felt something and asked, "Then the master is an old man?"
Yue Buqun closed his eyes and sighed: "My father is an upright and traditional literati, I hope I can be named on the gold list, become an official, and then benefit one party." Since I left home to worship Huashan, his old man no longer recognized me as a son, and his mother died seven years ago, and he never told me. It was only two years later that the teacher happened to meet the same clan before he learned the news. ”
"Master. Situ Xuan shouted.
Yue Buqun muttered: "There is no brother in the teacher's family, and now that his father has died, no one has guarded his soul and worn filial piety." Thinking that his old man had a good face in his life, but the evening scene was so bleak, he really wanted to fly back to his hometown immediately and kneel in front of his parents. Now that the son wants to raise but does not wait for his relatives, this kind of heart-splitting pain is really unspeakable. ”
Yue Buqun's words didn't stop, and he continued: "I was just thinking about whether my decision to join Huashan was right or not, whether it was the eldest disciple or the head of the sect, they were not very happy, let alone implement their own will. As the saying goes, 'An Neng broke his eyebrows and bent his waist to the powerful, so that I couldn't be happy', if I can't carry out my heart and be happy with grievances, what is the need to step into this river and lake?"
Speaking of this, the aura on Yue Buqun's body continued to rise, but it was too high and low, it was really weird and unpredictable.
Situ Xuan was shocked when he saw this, and said in his heart that this was a precursor to going mad. Hurriedly stepped forward, preparing to use his internal force to stimulate Yue Buqun's Baihui acupoint and maintain his sanity.
But Yue Buqun's body suddenly burst out, and layers of qi surged out of his body, pushing Situ Xuan back three steps.
Situ Xuan used all his internal strength and took a difficult step, wanting to walk in front of Yue Buqun again, but every time he took a step forward, the pressure he felt would increase, and finally Situ Xuan only took two steps, and it was difficult to take the third step.
Yue Buqun's face flickered brightly and darkly, and his lips moved slightly, as if he was babbling something. The qi machine swayed all over his body, and finally broke through the small courtyard, which was about to be revealed on Mount Hua.
I didn't hear the sound of the door opening, nor did I hear the sound of breaking the air, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Yue Buqun, and one hand was steadily pressed on Yue Buqun's shoulder.
Yue Buqun's eyes gradually returned to clarity, and when he saw someone coming, he shouted, "Master!"
Ning Qingcheng nodded to Yue Buqun, his gaze swept over the letterhead, and said, "Idiot." Then he pointed at Yue Buqun's forehead, Yue Buqun closed his eyes and slowly leaned back in the chair.
Ning Qingcheng put Yue Buqun on the couch and pressed Yue Buqun's shoulder and neck with one hand to help Yue Buqun sort out the true qi wandering in his body.
Then he moved his fingers and withdrew the sword intent that covered the surroundings of the small courtyard, calming the influence of Yue Buqun's almost madness.
。。。
The martial arts tournament of the disciples of Wuyue continued, and one or two competitions were held every day in the days that followed.
Tianmen Daoist lost to Li Buying, and when Li Buying was about to use the sword of 'Great Cold', Tianmen Daoist hesitated for a long time, his face turned red and strange, and finally surrendered to the sword.
Liu Zhengfeng's battle against Fei Bin was also exciting, Hengshan's swordsmanship was erratic, left and right, mysterious and difficult to prevent. Although the Songshan swordsmanship is steady and heavy, it is restrained by the Hengshan swordsmanship everywhere.
Fei Bin finally had to come out with his sword palm, Songshan swordsmanship in one hand, and Songyang palm in the other, majestic, Liu Zhengfeng symbolically resisted a few moves, and then decisively admitted defeat.
Taishan Pai Tianxiu is a beautiful Taoist priest, around twenty years old, and his martial arts are acceptable.
Hengshan Baiyun An's swordsmanship is mainly defensive, nine points of defense and one point of attack, but each attack is extremely sharp, and the emphasis is on hiding needles in the cotton, and then attacking.
But Dingyi Shi is too hot-tempered, and he can't use the slow swordsmanship, the Hengshan swordsmanship is used in her hands, the nine-point defense is guarded around Tianxiu's body, and the one-point offense is even more prominent.
Although the martial arts of these two people were not as good as the previous two groups, they were both really fighting, and they were highly praised by Ning Qingcheng after the game. The implication is of course that he is dissatisfied with the practice of Taishan and Hengshan factions hiding traitors.
Master Dingyi was victorious, and the smile on her face was irrepressible, which was in stark contrast to the two sisters of Dingxian and Dingqing beside her.
Since the day Huang Zhongtao died, Dingxian Shitai has often thought that he does not belong. Master Dingqing noticed that Yue Buqun had not shown up for several days.
The last group of matches in the top eight is Yue Buqun against Songshan Pai Lehou, Lehou has appeared for a long time and has not seen Yue Buqun appear, and the heroes from all walks of life in the Jade Girl Peak can't help but look at Ning Qingcheng.
Ning Qingcheng finally spoke: "These days, I have watched the outstanding disciples of the five sects fight, and I have not realized anything, so I went to the back mountain to retreat and think hard. Since the group did not appear, it was calculated based on abstention, and the musician's nephew won this game. ”
Le Hou's face was not good-looking, among the young disciples of the Wuyue Sword Sect, Yue Buqun's name was extremely loud, especially after he entered the innate realm, he was the first person of his generation, and he could be called the uncrowned king.
Only Zuo Lengchan and Mo Da Neng, who were older and had more profound swordsmanship, faintly suppressed Yue Buqun, and most of the other disciples were not Yue Buqun's opponents.
Now Yue Buqun directly abstained, presumably because Tianmen Daoren and Liu Zhengfeng were out of the game one after another, Yue Buqun felt that no one was worthy of his action, so he simply abstained in protest. If he really ends up competing with swords, even if he wins the title of 'strongest young disciple', it will not be very glorious.
Le Hou clutched the hilt of his sword tightly, angry that Yue Buqun 'looked down' on his martial arts, but he didn't dare to make a mistake in front of Ning Qingcheng.
On March 15, the martial arts competition of the young disciples of the five factions finally came to an end, and finally Li Buyi successively defeated Fei Bin and Le Hou, and won the first place in the first martial arts competition.
The prize given by the Huashan faction made Tianmen and Liu Zhengfeng, who were out of the game early, regret it, if it was Yue Buqun's appearance, of course the two of them would have no extra ideas, they were not Yue Buqun's opponents now. But for Li Buying, the disciples of the five factions who are conceited of their strength are mostly a little unconvinced in their hearts and regret it.
Even if because of the sect relationship, excluding the teaching inheritance of the two layers of "Zixia Divine Skill", they can still get a thousand contribution points and a large number of Qi Boosting Guan Dan, as well as the precious Divine Concentration Pill.
This sky-high reward made everyone secretly clench their fists, looking forward to the convening of the second Young Disciple Conference.
At midnight on the fifteenth, Yue Buqun and Ning Zhongze's house.
Li Buyi and Liang Buyi were arranging something in the courtyard, and although Ning Qingcheng was sitting in the room, he glanced at the compass at hand from time to time.
Ning Zhong pulled Situ Xuan down into the room and asked solemnly, "Xuan'er, what about your master, why haven't you seen him for a few days?"
Situ Xuan was a little embarrassed, thought for a while and said truthfully: "Master's family has changed dramatically, and he has gone back to his hometown to mourn." ”
Ning Zhong was stunned for a moment, and said: "Which elder is it? father-in-law or mother-in-law? Senior brother has never mentioned the matter of his hometown before, how can he not bring me home for funeral at this time, does he think that I am not married into the Yue family?"
Situ Xuan hurriedly said: "Master's family affairs are complicated and difficult to understand, of course there are Master's considerations for not taking my sister with me, and Senior Sister Lingshan has just been born, and my sister Lin'er needs to be taken care of by Shiniang, and Shiniang really can't leave Huashan at this moment." ”
Ning Zhong asked again, "Did your master say when he would return to the mountain?"
Situ Xuan replied: "When the master returns home for the funeral, he has to take care of the affairs of the master's father-in-law, and he also has to keep filial piety and deal with all the things in the clan. According to the apprentice's estimates, it can be as short as three months, as long as half a year, or maybe even longer. But what kind of old Jianghu is the master, the martial arts are high, and the mind is meticulous, unless you meet the master master, who in the world can threaten the master? ”
In Situ Xuan's heart, Yue Buqun is afraid that this time he will have to come by temperament, and he will inevitably keep filial piety for three years according to the ancient rites. However, he didn't dare to tell Ning Zhong Zeming about this, so it was better to explain it slowly in the future.
Ning Zhong was faintly uneasy in her heart, because on the night she handed over the letterhead, she vaguely felt that Yue Buqun was standing in front of her bed, and she was very reluctant to say a lot of words, but she couldn't get up at all, and Yue Buqun disappeared after that night. No one in the entire Huashan Mountain knew where Yue Buqun was going, except for the little slippery head in front of him.
Situ Xuan's heart was furious when he was stared at by Ning Zhongze, and he hurriedly asked: "Senior Niang, tonight is a big day, can you teach the Huashan Sect's introductory heart method to Wei Lai?"
Ning Zhong really wanted to catch this kid and twist his ears hard, is this the so-called 'having a daughter-in-law and forgetting his mother'? The stinky boy and his little lover haven't done anything yet, so they began to ignore his master and master. (To be continued.) )
