Chapter 10 Beyond the Rivers and Lakes

The inn looks extremely dilapidated and empty, and there are really few passers-by who stop here, except for some traders who have traveled from south to north.

Holding the puppy baby who had fallen asleep in the past, Yue Fan's mood was extremely bad now, and he directly skipped the vendors who looked at him, and asked Xiao Er to arrange a large guest room for himself and Kou Fei upstairs.

In the end, he called Xiao Er again and prepared some light meals for the little dog. Of course, by the way, I also bought a lot of cooked meat for Xiaohuo's house, after all, that guy hasn't eaten meat for a few days, if he doesn't get him something to eat, I'm afraid he will have to steal the people's livestock again, which is a troublesome thing.

......

Yue Fan's medical skills were already excellent, and under the care of his vitality, the weak body and bones of the puppy baby gradually became plump, and even Kou Fei on the side couldn't help but admire the magic of Yue Fan's exercises.

The little dog slowly opened his eyes, and it was a cold and resolute face with a little worry, which was imprinted in his mind. After nearly half a year of wandering, he has tasted the warmth and coldness of the world, and he will never forget this familiar and unfamiliar face for the rest of his life.

The tears had already dried up, and the puppy looked at Yue Fan quietly, that complicated mood was like, his relatives were his enemies, and he didn't know whether to hate him or love him?

Seeing that the puppy baby bowed his head and was silent, Yue Fan didn't know what to say, so he silently sent rice porridge, and the puppy baby did not refuse to come.

After eating, the little dog's mood seemed to be much better, and he looked at Yue Fan and said, "Brother White-haired, my father and mother are dead, my grandfather is also dead, and the villagers are also dead, they are all dead...... There were a lot of men in black that night, and I saw a lot of blood, and it was all over the ground, and they said they wanted to kill you...... They wanted to kill me, and I ran as fast as I could...... Fell into the river......"

After the puppy baby's story, Yue Fan knew the whole thing, which was similar to the information upstairs, and the only thing he was glad about was that the puppy baby was still alive, and he also had some clues.

Soothing the excited child, Yue Fan said softly: "It's all over, I will take good care of you." Both of them are orphans, they have the same experience, and there is great cause and effect between the two, Yue Fan naturally will not let this child go away.

After comforting the child to sleep again, Yue Fan slowly left the bedside, looking extremely calm. But Kou Fei could see that the other party's calm eyes hid anger and murderous intent.

Kou Fei lamented in his heart, he didn't like this kind of atmosphere, so he sneered: "Little brother! what the old man said must be true, this kid and the old man must take him as an apprentice, pass on his martial arts well, and when he grows up, he can take revenge with his own hands." ”

Yue Fan was slightly stunned and then nodded in agreement, he really has too many things to do now, hatred can be put aside, and promises can be temporarily put aside, but he can't ignore Ya'er's affairs.

If there is a master like "Knife Idiot" to take care of him, I believe that this child will not suffer, in this case, he will also count his own thoughts. Yue Fan thought like this, but he didn't know that Kou Fei also had other plans.

In Kou Fei's mind, he has given up a lot of things in order to pursue the ultimate sword path all his life, and now he doesn't even have a successor, so he really wants to be lonely in the future? Although it was a joke to accept this little baby as an apprentice, but just now after listening to the other party's experience, Kou Fei couldn't help but feel compassion. Moreover, the puppy baby's qualifications are not bad, and the relationship with Yue Fan is not shallow, he believes that Yue Fan will not be stingy with his martial arts. When the time comes, Yue Fan's sword technique will be fused with his own sword technique, and he will definitely become the originator of a generation of sword path masters. Thinking of this, Kou Fei's face smiled like a flower.

Seeing this, Yue Fan asked inexplicably, "Senior, what are you laughing at?"

Kou Fei restrained his smile, glared at him, and said, "Of course you have to laugh if you can accept a good apprentice, but you still have to cry if you are not happy, do you want the old man to be sad?" You are really...... By the way, what are you going to do next? We've offended people, and now we're being targeted. ”

The Red Rain Society had already sent people to keep an eye on the outside of the inn, even if they hid it well, how could they hide it from Kou Fei, the eyes and ears of the old Jianghu? Of course, Yue Fan also knew, but he just didn't bother to pay attention to it.

I only heard Yue Fan say lightly: "I'll wait for others, maybe I'll have to stay here for a few days." ”

"Wait for someone, who are you waiting for?" Kou Fei was curious.

"Someone who sent me a message. ”

Yue Fan's lukewarm appearance really made Kou Fei feel very helpless, and he shook his head and said, "Hey, you're really troublesome...... But the old man has time anyway, so I'll accompany you here, and by the way, I'll contact my newly accepted apprentice. Hey, hey!"

Yue Fan knew that the other party was sincere in staying to help him, so he nodded deeply and expressed his gratitude.

......

Sleepless late at night, Yue Fan seemed to think of something when chatting with Kou Fei, so he asked: "Senior, you were also on the side of last night's battle, do you know what kind of swordsmanship that woman makes? Is it really the legendary 'Imperial Sword Technique'? I heard that Gu Jianren, the owner of the Divine Sword Villa, also knows a flying sword technique, could it be that the woman is from the Divine Sword Villa?"

"No, no, no!" Kou Fei shook his head and said, "As far as that little gadget from the Divine Sword Villa, how can it be compared to other people's 'Imperial Sword Technique'." ”

"Oh!" Yue Fan's eyes lit up: "In this way, the seniors must know the details of that person, right?"

Realizing that he had leaked his words, Kou Fei smiled awkwardly and said, "Little brother, there are some things that you still don't know, so as not to get into trouble in the future." As if remembering something, Kou Fei twitched his face, very unnatural.

Yue Fan stood up and asked, "Senior, you know that this is very important to me, I hope you can tell me." With that, Yue Fan bowed heavily.

Kou Fei felt ashamed, and hurriedly jumped away and said, "Little brother, it's not that I don't say it, it's just that ...... Well, I'll tell you what I know!"

Yue Fan frowned and nodded in thanks.

After a pause, Kou Fei continued: "Little brother, do you know what is outside the rivers and lakes?"

Yue Fan was stunned, and said without understanding: "Isn't it the world outside the rivers and lakes?"

"No!" Kou Fei said with his white beard: "Beyond the rivers and lakes, there is a sky outside the sky!"

Beyond the rivers and lakes, there is a sky outside the sky.

The first time Yue Fan heard such a pause, there were ripples in his heart, and he vaguely guessed something, but his heart was vague.

“......”

After a moment of silence, Kou Fei flashed a look of remembrance: "That was a long time ago, remember back then, I was still a fledgling boy...... Once, I was training in the 'Southern Barbarian Wilderness', and I didn't want to walk and get lost, just when I was angry. Suddenly, I saw the glow in the sky, and a man and a woman were actually fighting with swords in the sky, using the 'Imperial Sword Technique'!

The fight was the fiercest I had ever seen in my life, one moment of wind and rain, the other moment of thunder and lightning, the fight was dark, the sun and the moon were dark, if I hadn't stood far away, I am afraid I would have been hacked to death. Thinking of the scene at that time, Kou Fei still has palpitations in his heart until now.

"Sword fighting! It should be the art of the sword!" Yue Fan resisted the impulse in his heart and continued to listen.

"I believe that the little brother also remembers that the old man also told you that more than 20 years ago, the old man was defeated by others......"

"Seniors are talking about Xuanyuan Bai, the head of the top ten masters in the world?"

"Exactly! I was defeated by Mr. Xuanyuan in one move, and I wanted to give up what I had learned in discouragement. In order to persuade me, Mr. Xuanyuan told me the true meaning of the Heavenly Dao Realm, and I also cheered up again. All along, I have been approaching the way of heaven, but my qualifications are limited, so I will look around for someone to compare!Alas~~"

Yue Fan nodded, he had indeed heard the other party mention these past events.

"That time, I talked with Mr. Xuanyuan for a long time, and I also learned a lot of secrets in the rivers and lakes," Kou Fei continued...... "At that time, I also asked Mr. Xuanyuan about the Nanban, and he just said that I forgot what happened, that is not the world we can touch. ”

"It's not a world that we can touch?" Yue Fan wondered, "What do you mean?"

After pondering for a moment, Kou Fei breathed a sigh of relief and said: "It is a place outside the rivers and lakes, not in the world, not bound by the world, and also not known by the world. There are a few exceptions, and I am one example. ”

Yue Fan frowned: "Is there still such an existence in the world?"

Kou Fei sighed, "Just because we don't know doesn't mean it doesn't exist, and I saw it when I was young!"

"And what kind of people are they?"

"People outside the rivers and lakes are accustomed to calling themselves 'monks', and the world they are in is the 'cultivation world', and in the cultivation world, the worst are the masters of the 'Heavenly Dao' level......" The voice became deeper and deeper, and it was obvious that Kou Fei's mood was very depressed!

Monk! Cultivation Realm! Heavenly Dao Master!

Yue Fan's heart was like setting off a stormy wave, and he couldn't calm down for a long time! The other party's words brutally broke his long-standing ideological concepts. The world and the rivers and lakes are always the theme in people's hearts, but suddenly, someone tells you that there is another sky beyond the rivers and lakes, and who else can calm down at this time?

Seeing that Yue Fan was stunned, Kou Fei comforted himself: "Little brother, in fact, you don't have to be presumptuous, in the battle last night, although you were at a disadvantage, you did not lose to that female monk, which is enough to show your strength." You must know that the Heavenly Dao master is not as simple as imagined, and she should belong to the more powerful among the monks. It's good that the man didn't kill him, otherwise you would be in real trouble. ”

Yue Fan's body trembled, and he dragged his fist tightly. In my heart, I secretly hated why my injury didn't get better earlier, otherwise I wouldn't have watched others take away the dust incense!

"Okay, the old man only knows so much, you can decide for yourself what you want in the future!"

I will not give up! Yue Fan's conviction has never wavered, and it is even more impossible for him to give up at this time.

After reading it, Yue Fan asked again: "Senior, since you know so much, do you know the origin of that female monk?"

"How does the old man know the origin of these people...... However, you can go to the 'Southern Barbarian Wilderness', which I also happened to see there...... Nanban is next to the Jiaozhi country, and the old man went thousands of miles away in order to chase and kill the beast of the 'Ghost King Knife'......"

Speaking of the events of the year, Kou Fei's chatterbox opened again, and dragged Yue Fan to chat all night, talking about everything in the south and the north. The latter couldn't help but sigh that this old river and lake was really well-informed, not only in the mountains and old forests, but also in remote places like Jiaozhi country, which was even older than the old horse.
