164, throw away the sword and abandon the piano
When he came downstairs, he saw the candlelight in the house flickering, Li Zhihua hurriedly went to the window and shouted: "The shopkeeper is hard, please fetch some water." But he heard the head of the room say: "There is a water tank in front of the door, go and fight it yourself." "When I went around to the door, I had a water tank and scooped a full pot upstairs. Near the door of the building, there was no sound of books in the room. When I entered the room, I couldn't help but feel very strange, the man was gone. When the basin was placed, I suddenly saw that the back window had been opened, and a rope was tied to the window frame. Seeing this, he was shocked and secretly screamed that it was not good, and the Venerable Master was also a big dealer. When I walked to the bed, I saw that the burden on the pillow had not moved, but the cadre sword was gone.
Li Zhihua's brain "buzzed", and he regretted it. Seeing that the man's burden was on the table and he didn't take it away, he took it open and saw that there were all the Confucian books in it, and nothing else. I didn't have time to think about it, so I flew downstairs sideways, but when I saw that it was pitch black everywhere, where to find the man? I heard a few dog barks not far away, and I heard the sound clearly, and my body swept away like a photoelectric light. Seeing that there was a person outside Qizhang who was running fast, Li Zhihua probed with both palms, and carried the method of "sucking mountains and draining the sea", and with a snort, the person was captured by the gods and was quickly sucked in. Li Zhihua said hatefully: "Bring the sword!"
The man was running to his own strength, and was suddenly sucked back, and when he looked up and saw this person's long hair hanging down his waist, he trembled in fright and said: "Ghost, ghost ......" Without saying a word, he was shocked to death. Li Zhihua took a closer look, and saw that this person was not the person, and smelled a smell of blood on his body, presumably absconding after killing someone. Li Zhihua pressed his palm to his chest, output a true power and breathed his pulse, and then clicked two fingers to wake the person up. The man's eyes were reopened, and his whole body was so frightened that his whole body was dying. Li Zhihua asked, "I don't hurt you, what are you doing?"
The man couldn't say a word: "I, I...... I kill people...... people, he doesn't put ...... Treat his daughter...... Daughter Xu, Xu to ...... Give me...... I just ......" Li Zhihua Dengming everything, grabbed this person, flew a few over, sent him hundreds of feet away, and said: "Run for your life." The man pounced, and lay on the ground like a dead body, as if he had fainted again. Li Zhihua no longer went to rescue, and returned to flying around to find him.
After searching for more than an hour, almost all the rooms of several inns in the city were searched, and all the streets had been walked, all in vain, and there was secret remorse. I thought that I was also stupid, but I was taken by a scoundrel, and I gave someone a gold leaf. I couldn't help but get more and more angry the more I thought about it, and I sat on the rocks and groaned angrily. After sitting for a while, I suddenly remembered that the burden was still in the room, and the doors and windows in the room were not closed. Thinking of this, Fu Jia panicked, and flew towards the store again.
When I arrived in the room, I was even more ethereal, and I was very bitter. The baggage was long gone, not even the man's package. Since he came out of the room, the man returned to the bag, which was really relaxed and chic. I saw a piece of paper pressed on the table, and I went to take a look, but I saw that it was written: The foolish man is reckless, and he throws away his sword and abandons his burden, which makes people cry. Don't be angry, there is wine and a pot for you to snort, don't be confused next time. Hee-hee, haha.
Li Zhihua crushed the paper hatefully, beat his chest, and wanted to cry without tears. There are hundreds of taels of silver in the bag, not to mention, but the Luo Chengzhiqin is also hidden in the bag, and when he saw Hu Yu and Pi Buyu, he didn't take out the piano and sword to show off, but he just wanted to give this guqin to Zhu Shuzhen for identification. This time it's good, the sword is gone, and even Luo Chengqin is lost. I regret that I made a mistake in a hurry and forgot to carry the burden on my body. Thinking that the man ridiculed himself as a foolish martial artist, it was true. Seeing that there was still a half-wine left on the table, he tilted his neck and poured it. Knock knock, it didn't take long for the two to be dry, followed by a palm, slapped into powder, trembling and laughing. He secretly said indignantly: "Although I Li Zhihua has lost the artifact, he is also a master of martial arts, and carrying that divine sword with him is just a burden!" Thinking of this, Deng's feeling suddenly opened.
Although he was comforted, he still felt sorry in his heart, thinking that he would return to Kunlun Zixia Valley after his success, and he planned to leave the sword, but he didn't see the master, and he was not at ease, so he took it with him again, and couldn't help but complain about the master.
Li Zhihua was so annoyed that he covered his head and fell asleep, and he didn't think about anything else until the next day.
Throwing away the sword and abandoning the piano, he fell into a relaxed state, and traveled dizzily all the way eastward from Hong'an County, secretly glad that he didn't bring those martial arts books with him. Otherwise, the misfortune is not small. As he was moving forward with bitter complaints, he suddenly felt that someone seemed to be following behind him, and when he looked back, he saw that there was no space everywhere, and there were only a few decaying trees on both sides, and nothing else.
After running for more than 30 miles in one breath, he gradually slowed down, and he felt like he was in the front of him, as if the follower behind him was only four or five feet away. Li Zhihua pretended not to know, walked and walked, and turned around suddenly, but saw a straight path behind him, and there were some craters and dirt on both sides of the road, thinking that this person would not hide in the pit on the side of the road anyway, although he secretly followed himself, he may not be an enemy. Walking more than ten miles, but feeling the people behind him flickered left and right, the sound was long and comfortable, the breath was even, and I couldn't help but be shocked, secretly thinking that my current kung fu could not see where the followers were, this person was determined to be a very good hand in martial arts, thinking of the people who could carry this art, there were very few in the world, was it their own master, I felt that this person's voice breathed out the law of the great special door, if it was the master Gongsun Tai, he would never follow himself.
At that moment, he suddenly stopped and turned around and said: "Your Excellency is so profound, Cheng is the first encounter, why follow me closely, and don't show up? Seeing that there was a market town not far in front of him, and did not want to arrive immediately, he turned back and ran to the southwest for a few feet, flew up to a luxuriant tree, peeped west among the dense branches and leaves, and waited for half an hour, but saw that there were two riders, and saw that the two did not look like a family at all, and could not follow him, and thought that there was a fork in the road two or three miles to the west, and perhaps the man was thrown off by himself. Thinking of this, I feel a little remorseful in my heart. After hiding for a while, seeing no anomaly, he sighed and floated down the tree.
When I arrived at the market town, it was almost dusk, although it was nearly late, there were still many pedestrians on the street, and I asked people about it, and this place was called Macheng. So he found a very large inn, and after it was dark, he took out hundreds of taels of silver from a bad gentleman's mansion, and instructed the innkeepers to bring wine and food into the room.
He didn't think about it at the moment, he didn't eat for more than a day, and he drove for half a day, and his stomach was like beating a drum, and then the wine and food were served, so he filled his stomach with a lot.
After a while, I only heard the door beep and asked, "Which one?" only to hear someone outside the door: "Please open the door." Li Zhihua got up and opened the door, but saw a person standing outside the room, the man saw him, and hurriedly bowed and said: "There is an annoying son, in the late night, looking for a few inns, there is no spare room, I heard that there is a shop in the child's room, so I came to take the liberty of disturbing, hoping to get rid of the night, and hope that the son can give a convenience." ”
Li Zhihua saw that he was here to stay, and he didn't like it, it can be seen that this person knows etiquette very well, and he is full of burdens, so he must be a distant passerby, so he said: "As the saying goes, it is convenient for others, but also for oneself, Brother Nian doesn't have to be polite, please come in." ”
The man saluted again and said, "Thank you, Childe." After that, he entered the room. Li Zhihua saw that this person was about forty years old, of medium stature, and his appearance was honest, wearing a dark purple cocoon robe, but he looked like a businessman. Seeing that the room was full of wine and food, this man hurriedly said: "I'm sorry Brother Gongzi, I don't know that I want to invite friends to drink in my son's room. With that, he turned around and wanted to leave.
Li Zhihua said: "Brother Tai is wrong. It's not to invite friends to drink, but to have a single cup, since you are here, you have a fate, why turn back? You and I will have a few drinks here. When the man heard what he said, he seemed to be overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "Then I will trespass and disturb you." As he spoke, he unloaded the package he was carrying. He said, "Childe, wait a minute, I'll come when I go." With that, he went out of the room.
After a while, the man returned, followed by two shopkeepers, each holding wine and food. Li Zhihua said: "Why should Brother Tai break the bank?"
The man smiled and said: "The son does not give up, and he has a bold and benevolent temperament, which makes the next good life grateful and admired, so it is not important to fill in some wine and food, and I hope that the son will not be stingy." ”
Li Zhihua saw that these wines and dishes were very exquisitely carved, and the wine was brewed in the soil, and knew that these wines and dishes were not ordinary products, and they were famous for cooking. I also saw that this man was open-minded and respectful, and he was very fond of him. After pouring the two cups, the two drank opposite each other. Li Zhihua asked: "Listening to the accent of Brother Tai, isn't it a local?" The man said: "Don't hide it from the son, I am a native of Hanzhong, Shaanxi, who has been in war and desolation for many years, and has been struggling to make a living, so I came out to run a business, hoping to survive and support my family." After that, he asked, "Listening to Childe's accent, he is not a local, right?"
Li Zhihua said: "The younger brother is from Pengcheng, he has a habit of traveling in the mountains and rivers, making friends, and is now preparing to go to Lin'an, I don't know what big business my brother is running?"
The man said: "Where can it be called a big business, it's just a mouthful of food, and I like to collect some antiques and toys, but I can't make it." Haha, haha......"
Li Zhihua smiled: "Brother Tai is modest. ”
The man said, "Has Childe ever learned martial arts?"
Li Zhihua was stunned when he heard this, and then said: "There is an old boxer in my hometown, who has brought more than a dozen apprentices, and the younger brother Shuyu often goes to play with guns and sticks for a few days, aiming to strengthen his body, and he doesn't want to be a pure nerd." The last time I went to Shaolin, I saw the martial arts practiced by those monks, if compared with it, it can really be described as a shameful crane, worse than others, and we can't practice that kind of situation in our lives. ”
When the man heard this, he smiled and said, "Childe is really modest." But now the rivers and lakes are sinister, and if you don't know martial arts when you go out, it's dangerous. When I was young, I also practiced martial arts for many years, and I always felt that I had a little skill to do what I could do, and I once met a young woman who asked me, I ignored her at the time, and she scolded me a few words, I saw that she was a girl, and I didn't want to quarrel with her, but if you are a big man, you must teach you a lesson. But she said that if it wasn't for the law, she would teach me a lesson. I was so angry that I wanted to scare her, but I didn't raise my fist, but the fists and feet had already come like the wind, and in the blink of an eye, I was beaten by the woman for a while, and finally I was subdued. Hehehehehe. ”
