Ren Tianqi dodged away, but saw the mud and snow on the ground, and when he looked up again, the man had already flown upside down into the room, and his body was so fast, seeing that the man was about to disappear silently into the heavy snow.

I saw a person fly out of the snow on the roof, and he faced the man with a sword in the chest of the door of life and death. The swordsman of the Gate of Life and Death was also not paying attention, and the sound of "呀" was correct one after another, his body shook, and he snorted, and a trace of blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth. The swordsman of the Gate of Life and Death was unequivocal, with a loud shout, the sword was swung up with his right hand, and the palm of his left hand was cut up, all of which were desperate moves. The man on the opposite side was forced back several steps in a row, and hurriedly drew his knife to stabilize himself and counterattack.

Ren Tianqi was about to fly forward to help the man holding the knife, when he heard a creepy sneer in mid-air, from far to near, from small to big. Everyone was stunned. I saw that the man at the gate of life and death raised his hand and abandoned his sword and slapped his palm, only attacking but not defending, and a wave of heat rose sharply. The man with the knife yelled no, flipped backwards, and fell straight down to the roof. The swordsman of the Life and Death Gate turned his head and glanced at Ren Tianqi again, and flew up with a nod and disappeared into the snow curtain.

Ren Tianqi was about to fly up to the room to take a look at the knife-wielding man who fell, when he heard two long whistles in his arms.

Ren Tianqi was stunned. Ren Tianqi is too familiar with this kind of whistle, this is the contact signal in the seven doors, and his heart suddenly brightens, by the way, the knife-wielding man hiding on the roof just now is none other than Lord Lin Mushan. No wonder the man's body and skills looked so familiar. Ren Tianqi let go of his worries about Lord Lin in his heart, but he was worried about the person who had just spoken out to warn, and he heard that this person was also a rare master, and his internal strength was not below him at all.

Suddenly, hearing the sound of trampling on the snow behind them, Ren Tang and the others turned around again, and they were shocked to see that only the corpse of the scholar was frozen in the courtyard; the two dead assassins had already turned into a pool of blood, and only two bronze medals were found in the water; the courtyard was empty, and there was nothing to be seen in the courtyard.

Ren Tianqi observed for a while, shook his head, and pulled out a sword from the scholar's body, only to see that the sword body was slender and thick, with two deep blood grooves on the sword body, and the sword body was dull. This sword is longer, thicker, and more important than ordinary swords, and it has never been seen before.

The two rushed into the room and saw a little girl lying on the bed, sleeping soundly.

Tang Shengzhi hit the girl's sleeping hole, rolled up the girl with a quilt, hugged it in his hand, and was about to leave.

Ren Tianqi stretched out his hand and said, "Let's look for life and death again." ”

Tang Shengzhi put down the girl and nodded.

Seeing that there was an open book on the desk, the two stepped forward to take a look, and saw a line of words written on the paper with a red pen: Qingzhou Iron Dizi Ronghui.

Ren Tianqi was just about to reach out and turn another page to take a look, Tang Shengzhi stretched out his hand to stop him, and Ren Tianqi was startled.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew outside the door, blowing across the desk, and the books turned into a puff of light smoke in the wind, flew up and fell to the ground, and disappeared without a trace.

The two were taken aback, and Tang Shengzhi exclaimed: "Time-delayed insect liquid corrosive powder." ”

Seeing that they couldn't find any clues, the two of them hugged the little girl and went back to Longqiu Villa, and just flew to the room, they suddenly saw a black shadow in front of them and disappeared.

Tang Shengzhi and Ren Tianqi were startled and glanced at each other.

Ren Tianqi said: "Second brother, Miss Xiangling is already in her hand today, you can't stay for a long time, you can't be benevolent anymore, Xiangling's surname is important, Old Man Qiu's trust is important, you and I are secondary." ”

Tang Shengzhi nodded and said: "Brother Fool understands, I am in front, I will transport poison and defend myself, you are guarding on the side, if you need to make a move, you will take action, you don't need to take care of me, you take care of yourself." ”

The two of them flew like a fly.

Snowflakes are flying. That black shadow appeared again, and he actually bullied Tang Shengzhi. Tang Shengzhi flew out at full speed.

Ren Tianqi shouted violently, and the stacked clouds flew up, blocking the middle.

The black shadow raised his hand and slapped it, and it was the Shaolin Panruo Buddha's palm.

Ren Tianqi was stunned for a moment, and raised his hand to dissolve the opponent's palm. The other party did not make another move, and shouted in a low voice: "Don't panic, follow me." ”

Then he saw the man swing and turn upside down, and fly backwards.

Such a familiar voice, Ren Tianqi glanced back at Tang Shengzhi, hesitated slightly, or flew up with his feet and followed the man.

The two flew out for three or four miles, and when they came to a grass house, they saw the person in front of them stop their feet, turned around and glanced at Ren Tianqi, and pushed the door in.

Ren Tianqi came to the grass hut and stopped moving, feeling uneasy in his heart, not knowing what the person in front of him wanted. Looking around, it was white and gray, and I couldn't see where it was.

When he was uncertain, he heard a person in the room: "Qi'er, don't come in soon!"

Listening to his voice was pure and kind, as if this person was an elder of his own, Ren Tianqi hesitated slightly, but still pressed his sword to enter the hut.

I saw that a lamp had been lit in the room, and under the lamp sat a white-bearded monk, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and was smiling and looking at himself. It turned out to be Master Minghui, the abbot of Shaolin.

Ren Tianqi hurriedly abandoned his sword and bowed his head, and said happily: "Disciple Jingli has seen the abbot and uncle. ”

Master Minghui smiled, "Get up." ”

Ren Tianqi got up, covered the grass door casually, sat cross-legged, and said with a smile: "The disciple saw the master in the village during the day, but he didn't meet him in time, and he still hoped that the master would see him." ”

Ming Hui waved his hand and said with a smile: "How many years have you been out of the temple?"

Ren Tianqi said: "Back to the master, the disciple has been away from the temple for four years. I don't know how you are doing?"

Master Minghui smiled: "Okay, all good." Lao Na saw that you have a lot of skills, and it is no longer our Shaolin Buddhism martial arts, but it is gratifying. ”

Ren Tianqi heard the words and hurriedly kowtowed to the ground, and said: "The disciple learned the martial arts of the side door without the consent of the master, which is a great rebellion, and he also asked the abbot to punish him, and the disciple accepted the punishment." ”

Master Minghui smiled: "Get up and sit down and talk." This is not a Shaolin meditation hall, you don't have to be so restrained. What's more, when I accepted you as a disciple of the Shaolin layman, I didn't ask you to return to my Buddhism for the rest of your life. Self-cultivation, eliminating violence, and upholding justice are the original intentions of my Shaolin art. Look at your skills, it seems that Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism all have martial arts?"

Ren Tianqi said: "Uncle Shi is high. Since the disciple left Shaolin, he was fortunate to meet Master Yideng, Yin Lao's gang leader, Wang Chongyang's predecessors, Mr. Saihuatuo Gu Yiping, and the jade-faced Yama and other predecessors to give guidance, and fortunately the jade-faced Yama predecessors gave them martial arts secret books, so the disciple's learning was quite miscellaneous, and finally because of the natural stupidity, I am afraid that the master will be disappointed and humiliated. Ren Tianqi kowtowed three times on the ground again.

Master Minghui smiled slightly and said: "You are so lucky, but it is also your fate with the martial arts cultivator, when you cherish it, you must not insult the creation of the heavens." I want to see that you are talented, intelligent, and high-quality, and you are a rare martial arts material, and you have a good relationship with my Buddhism, so I secretly took the Shaolin Diamond Sutra and your uncle, and ordered your master to secretly lose your ten years of skills to consolidate your foundation, and I don't want to get the opportunity to get the right results today, congratulations!"

Ren Tianqi kowtowed three times on the ground and said, "Thank you for the grace of your uncle, the disciple will never forget." ”

Master Minghui smiled and said, "Old Gang Master Yin was afraid that something would happen to you and the two of you, so he called Lao Na to come to help." Lao Na saw that you were in danger of no life, and there was Lord Lin Mushan secretly helping him, so he didn't show up, so I think about it, but the old gang leader intends to ask you and me to meet, I'm afraid that the old gang leader has the intention of taking away my Shaolin disciples, right?, the gentleman doesn't take the love of people, and the old gang is overwhelmed!"

Ren Tianqi said with a smile: "The disciple wants to come, the old gang leader treats the disciple like a master, not only teaches each other, but also gives the Jiulong jade in the gang, but he has never agreed to have the share of master and apprentice." ”

Master Minghui laughed and said, "I see. The old gang leader is at a loss in his heart, and he is afraid that we will have a misunderstanding of robbing my Shaolin disciples. The old gang leader's life is bright and fair, and he is benevolent and righteous, so you should keep it in mind. ”

Ren Tianqi said with a smile: "Disciples should respect the teachings. ”

Master Minghui said: "Lao Na sees that you have achieved some fingering with flowers, what is it?"

Ren Tianqi said: "Whether it is twisted flower fingering, the disciple does not know, only knows that when the jade-faced Yama Master taught him, he was extremely anxious; ”

"Phaseless orchid fingers?" Master Minghui wondered.

Ren Tianqi nodded.

Master Minghui looked up at Ren Tianqi, pondered for a moment, and said, "Do you know what kind of martial arts Wuxianggong is?

Ren Tianqi shook his head.

Master Minghui sighed and said, "You try the orchid and show it to Lao Na." ”

Ren Tianqi answered, raised fifty percent of his strength, and waved his finger and popped out a finger.

I saw a "snap", and my fingers came out through the wall.

Master Minghui also raised his hand and popped out a finger, and there was a crisp sound of "pop", and the finger force also passed through the wall.

Ming Hui naturally used Shaolin King Kong, and his power was masculine and domineering.

Ren Tianqi stuck out his tongue when he saw it, and realized that his master's internal strength was unfathomable, and he was still far from the world's first-class masters, his face flushed, and he sighed secretly.

All this has not escaped the eyes of Master Minghui, and Master Minghui smiled: "How much success have you just used?"

Ren Tianqi said: "Go back to your uncle." Fifty percent was used. ”

Minghui nodded and said approvingly: "It's not easy for the five success powers to have this power. Looking at all the sects and factions in the world, there are those who can be as famous as the Shaolin King Kong Finger, as well as the Yang Finger of the Master of One Light, the twisted flower finger of the Gusu Murong family, and the Orchid Finger of you. It's a pity that your orchid finger seems to have been lost for a long time, and what you have learned is imitated by future generations, and you have not obtained its essence, but it is a pity. ”

Ren Tianqi wanted to say that Ximen Qingyuan's fingering was far superior to his own, but when he looked up and saw that his uncle was silent, he swallowed his words back.

After a long time, Master Minghui raised his head and said, "Okay, we can't stay here longer." Remember, when we are in the presence of outsiders, we don't need to reveal the relationship between the teacher and the disciple, which will be more convenient. ”

Ren Tianqi nodded yes and said, "Uncle Shi, everything is fine in the temple, the disciple really misses the three years in the temple." ”

Master Minghui looked up at Ren Tianqi and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I'll talk about it later." How's the previous thing going?"

Ren Tianqi said: "Xie Jushi is dead, and the disciple sees that the life and death book calls him Qingzhou Iron Dizi Ronghui, and the three swordsmen of the Life and Death Gate are two dead and one is injured. ”

Master Minghui sighed and said, "This Qingzhou iron flute is glorious, it turns out to be the personal guard of Guan Sheng, the chief military officer of Jinan, and he can be regarded as a strong man with moderation and righteousness. Forget it, let's go back to Longqiu Villa first. ”

Seeing that the master was spitting and spitting, Ren Tianqi had a shadow in his heart, and he didn't dare to say much, so he hurriedly got up and opened the grass gate in front, seeing that it was windy and snowy outside.

When the two returned to Longqiu Village, a stone in everyone's hearts fell to the ground, and they hurriedly invited Qiu Tongyuan's father and son and Old Man Yin. Old man Yin also brought a small group.

Everyone listened to Ren Tianqi's description, and unlocked the acupoint to wake up the little girl.

The girl opened her eyes, looked at everyone in confusion, and was slightly afraid, when she saw the old owner Qiu Tongyuan and his son, her spirits were lifted, and she hurriedly turned over to give a salute, and whispered: "Girl Xiangling, I have seen Uncle Qiu, I have seen Brother Qiu." ”

The little girl was clever, not in a hurry to ask where she was, and stood quietly with her hands down.

Qiu Chuanling smiled lightly and comforted: "Little sister, you are in my house now, just like in your own home, don't be afraid." ”

Xiangling nodded.

Qiu Chuanling said: "I know what happened to the Ru family yesterday, has anyone been here?"

Xiangling said: "No, what's wrong? It was already afternoon when my father and I came home from Guizhuang, I was reading in the house, and my father was writing and feeding the birds at home. After dinner, my father was still sitting on the side and sleeping with me, which was normal. When I woke up again, I was already here. ”

Yin Kaishan said: "Xiangling, come to grandpa." ”

Xiangling came to the old gang leader and gave a deep salute: "The little girl Rong Xiangling, I have seen the old man." ”

Yin Kaishan stretched out his hand and touched Xiangling's head and asked, "Xiangling, has Daddy taught you martial arts before?"

Xiangling nodded and replied: "Back to the old man, my father taught me some swordsmanship and boxing techniques;

Qiu Chuanling said: "Little sister, this is the famous old man Yin, the leader of the beggar gang Yin. ”

Xiang Ling's eyes widened.

Yin Kaishan nodded, and said with a wry smile: "Xiangling, you are fifteen years old this year, right? If one day Daddy is gone, will Xiangling be able to hold on?"

Xiangling was very smart, looked around, didn't see his father's figure, his face was pale, looked at everyone, stepped forward and knelt down in front of Qiu Tongyuan, and sobbed: "Uncle, what's wrong with my father's old man?"

Qiu Tongyuan's nose was sour, don't overdo it, and Yang faced the sky: "Xiangling, good, your father just killed the bad guy, in the future, you will be with your sister Chuanzhu and live in Wulongqiuzhuang, Uncle Qiu is your own daughter------。 ”

Xiang Ling heard this, and fainted with an "oh".

Qiu Chuanling stepped forward to pick it up, and hurriedly called the girl in the village to send Xiangling to the old lady in the backyard.

Yin Kaishan sighed and said: "Obviously, now it seems that the people who appeared in Chongya Academy and assassinated Rong Jushi are two groups of unrelated people, each with their own style of acting. ”

Qiu Tongyuan was puzzled: "The old gang leader means that there are three gangs of people in it?"

Yin Kaishan said: "Yes, the people who snatched my package in Chongya Academy are a gang, they are friends but not enemies, and their intentions are unknown; The three styles of acting, especially those who assassinate Tianqi, don't they also think that they are here for money!"

Ren Tianqi said: "I heard Murong Gongzi say that in the past few years, there has been a sect in the rivers and lakes that specializes in assassination, called the Fireworks Alliance. Oh, uncle, second brother Qiu, did you come to Gusu Murong Gongzi yesterday? We agreed to meet at Tianyi Pavilion yesterday morning and then come to the villa together, but we never waited. ”

Qiu Chuanling said: "I didn't see Murong Chang hate, but his father Murong Bo showed up, and left in a hurry after eating lunch. ”

Qiu Tongyuan asked Tang Shengzhi and said, "According to what the virtuous nephew saw, this life and death book and two bronze dead soldiers were corrupted, and they were definitely poisoned?"

Tang Shengzhi replied: "Exactly." At that time, I only played Tangmen bone soaking anesthetic powder, once a person is touched, the skin will immediately itch, bone soreness and numbness, the power can not be used, but there is no worry about life, and it can be healed after a few days. And the two bronze dead soldiers in the body are rare corpse poison, but I don't know who did it, could it be that there were others present in the courtyard at that time? The life and death book seems to be coated with time-delayed insect liquid corrosion powder, and it can be freely selected with different amounts of decay into ashes, and there is indeed such a poison in Wutangmen, because it is not easy to obtain materials, and it is not useful, so it has never been spread, and the medicine stained in this life-and-death book is definitely not made by Wutangmen!"

Qiu Tongyuan bowed his head and was silent. The crowd was silent.

A little red said: "Have the two seniors ever heard of Rong Hui?

Qiu Tongyuan glanced up at the old gang leader, sighed and said, "What is the name of this person, Ronghui, the son of Li Gang, a loyal minister of the former dynasty, Li Chengqing." Because his father was hated by the Jurchens and abandoned by the court. He held a grudge and had united the people many times to save himself, and wanted to go north to recover his homeland in order to fulfill his father's last wish. worked all his life, never married, and his heart can be learned. In the end, it is not for no reason that he died by the sword!"

Master Minghui and Ren Tianqi glanced at each other.

Ren Tianqi said: "In this way, this life and death book is not related to the imperial court?"

Qiu Tongyuan shook his head and said, "Maybe it's possible!"

The old gang leader shook his head and said, "Not really." Recently, the saint has been quite willing to go north, how can he do such a deceitful thing halfway. ”

The crowd was silent.

Yin Kaishan glanced back at the young man behind him, pointed at Ren Tianqi, and smiled at the young man: "Haven't you come forward to see Senior Brother Ru Ren, and don't you take the initiative to apologize for stealing other people's things?"

The young man nodded, stepped forward to take a deep look, and said with a smile: "Junior brother Lin Xuefei has seen senior brother, and I hope that senior brother will bear with me if I am offended." ”

Ren Tianqi hurriedly got up and stretched out his hand to help, and said with a smile: "Brother Xian, please get up, my own brother, don't need so many courtesies." ”

A little red looked at the two of them, and said with a smile: "The old gang leader, uncle, all the brothers, don't you think that the two of them, between the eyebrows, the bridge of the nose, and the shape of the mouth, are they not a family?"

Everyone looked at it carefully, laughing and not saying a word.

Ren Tianqi said with a smile: "Big brother is making fun of it, there is such a clever thing in the world!"

Yin Kaishan touched his beard and said with a smile: "A family must be unlikely, but if you think about it, it is not impossible." Xue Fei was picked up by me fifteen years ago in the bamboo forest next to the Guanyin Temple. It was also a snowy day, so he was later named Lin Xuefei. I really don't know who his biological parents are, hey, this child has been more miserable than ordinary people since he was a child!"

Lin Xuefei said with a smile: "Grandpa, don't I live a good life! With the care of you and many uncles and brothers in the gang, are you content?"

Everyone laughed and said yes.

Yin Kaishan said to Qiu Tongyuan: "The old owner, these two still need to strengthen the vigilance in the village, although there are few distinguished guests left in the village, but after the birthday, there are many things, it is difficult to have incompleteness, and we need to be vigilant;

Qiu Tongyuan saw that what the old man said was reasonable, so he didn't insist anymore, and asked the housekeeper to take two hundred taels of silver and hand it over to Lu Shixing to take care of the beggars and brothers, and then took two hundred taels of silver to Wen Tingyu and asked him to arrange for the family of Xiangling on his behalf.

After dawn, several people left Longqiu Villa with the beggars and came to Xiangling's house.

First of all, I woke up all the family members in the house, cleaned the compound, sent my family to the town to buy a good coffin to collect Xie Jushi, and left several experienced beggar heroes to guard the courtyard, waiting for the return of Xiangling, and everyone got up and went to the Deqiling Temple.
