029 Senior Brother
Walking out of the mountain pass, Lin Changsheng remembered something and asked Cheng Yingdao: "Senior sister, is there a blacksmith shop here?"
Cheng Ying was stunned for a moment and said, "Yes, it's not far ahead." Senior brother, but you want to build something?"
Lin Changsheng shook his head and said, "I just heard something. Let's go, let's take a look. ”
The three of them led a horse and immediately put a quilt on it, and the silly girl was in a daze and was placed on it. Unhurried, they traveled seven or eight miles and saw a ruined village.
After the Mongols destroyed the Jin, the iron cavalry entered the Song Dynasty, this area is the northern part of the Great Song Dynasty, and the towns are mostly occupied by Mongolian soldiers, and there are ruins everywhere. The blacksmith is in a small village, very simple, in the middle of the entrance is a large anvil, the ground is full of coal dust and broken iron, a few plowshares and a few sickles are hung on the wall, and there is no one in the house.
Lin Changchang said, "Is there anyone at home?"
After a while, an old man came out of the side room, with gray hair, about fifty years old, thinking that he had bent over to strike iron for many years, his back was hunched, his eyes were red and thin from the smoke, his eye sockets were full of eye droppings, his left foot was crippled, and he was holding a cane under his shoulder socket.
He glanced at Lin Changsheng and the others, lowered his head and said, "What do you have to say?"
Lin Changsheng frowned, and said unconsciously: "Why are you so downcast?" His voice was not loud or small, and several people around him happened to hear it. Cheng Ying and Lu Wushuang looked at him in surprise, it was because he didn't know this old blacksmith. The blacksmith looked at him in wonder, wondering who this man was.
Lin Changsheng shook his head and said with a smile: "I hope the senior brother is not to blame, the junior brother is just a little emotional." ”
"Senior brother?"
All three exclaimed. Cheng Ying and Lu Wushuang immediately looked at Feng Mofeng curiously, a little ignorant. Feng Mofeng's complexion changed, and he looked at Lin Changsheng in surprise, his heart was shaken.
Lin Changsheng smiled, stretched out his hand, twisted a piece of iron slag on the iron plate, bent his fingers, and ejected it.
"Flick your fingers!" Feng Mofeng exclaimed in surprise and said tremblingly, "It's really ...... You are really Peach Blossom Island...... Disciple of the Lord...... Did the Lord of Peach Blossom Island accept disciples again in his later years?"
Cheng Ying came to his senses and saw his crippled left foot, his heart moved, and he said, "Yes...... Is it Senior Brother Feng Mofeng?"
Lin Changsheng nodded and said, "The teacher was lonely in his later years, so he accepted the two of us." But over the years, the two of us haven't been to Peach Blossom Island, so I don't know what it's like there. ”
Feng Mofeng nodded, his eyes softened, and he was quite close.
Lin Changsheng continued: "The teacher also said that he was quite remorseful. Chen Mei and the others did their own crimes, and they couldn't complain about others. But the four senior brothers Qu Lu Wu Feng were innocently affected. Over the years, the teacher has also looked for a few senior brothers, except for Senior Brother Feng Mofeng, who has disappeared, the other senior brothers have all died one by one. ”
"What?" Feng Mofeng's face changed drastically, and he said, "Impossible, how could a few senior brothers have outstanding martial arts, how could they pass away so early?"
Lin Changsheng sighed and shook his head, and said, "Things in the world are often unsatisfactory. Senior Brother Chen Xuanfeng died unexpectedly at the hands of Guo Daxia when he was young; Senior Sister Mei Chaofeng was killed by Ouyang Feng; Senior Brother Qu Lingfeng, in order to seek forgiveness from his master, reopened his subordinates, broke into the Ouchi, stole a lot of antique treasures, and was surrounded and suppressed by the masters of Ouchi and died; Senior Brother Wu Mianfeng was also absent for many years, but according to Senior Brother Lu's inquiry, he died of illness; a few years ago, Senior Brother Lu also died of illness at Dasheng Pass. Only Senior Brother Feng has not heard from him. The younger brother has been walking the rivers and lakes all these years, and he has also secretly inquired, but he accidentally heard the news of Senior Brother Feng and specially looked for it. ”
"Senior Brother Feng, Master, his old man has already forgiven you. I have also been very remorseful over the years. ”
Feng Mofeng lowered his head, and hidden tears fell smoothly down his cheeks and fell to the ground. He said with a sad face: "Is there such a thing? It's only been more than 20 years, how can this be?"
Lin Changsheng patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "Senior brother, life and death have their own destiny, everything has happened, no matter how sad it is, there is no doubt about it." The junior brother and sister are about to rush to Xiangyang this time to help Guo Daxia, why don't the senior brother go with us. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard the noise of people in the distance, faintly like thunder.
Lin Changsheng's face changed, and he said, "It's the army...... It must have been the Mongol army that invaded the south. ”
Feng Mofeng sighed: "The Mongolian army is going south, and my Chinese people will be miserable. ”
Lin Changsheng said: "Yes." The Mongolian riding and archery skills are unparalleled in the world, and they are really not able to resist those wine bags and rice bags in the Great Song Dynasty, and this disaster is insignificant. He thought of Feng Mofeng's actions in the original book, and said, "Senior brother, this time to Xiangyang, we can just help Guo Daxia." Senior brother, don't hesitate, don't you want to see Master?"
"See Master?" Feng Mofeng was gloomy and said, "I look like this, I am really unfilial, how can I see Master?"
Lin Changsheng secretly said badly, and said, "Senior brother, if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your master." Ever since Master re-emerged from Peach Blossom Island, he has been looking for you. It's a pity that Chen Xuanfeng and Mei Chaofeng are not angry, Senior Brother Qu and Senior Brother Wu are buried in the ground, and the master hasn't even seen them for the last time. Do you want Master to spend the rest of your life in remorse?"
"I ......" Feng Mofeng was speechless. Lin Changsheng knew that the hurdle in his heart was not easy to pass. He hoped to see Huang Yaoshi, and he also hoped to return to Peach Blossom Island, but now that he is down, where is he still worthy of being called a disciple of Peach Blossom Island?
Lin Changsheng saw that he was still hesitating, raised his right arm, and suddenly sealed the acupoints on his body, and said, "Senior Brother Feng, I have offended." ”
"Senior brother......" Cheng Ying couldn't help but scream when he saw it.
Lin Changsheng said: "Senior sister, don't worry. Master must be happy to see Senior Brother Feng. ”
Cheng Ying nodded, and the two helped Feng Mofeng onto the horse, let him sit with the silly aunt, and led the horse to Xiangyang.
Along the way, several people no longer stayed, and after two or three days, the group arrived outside Xiangyang City. Due to the news of the southern invasion of the Mongol army, the four gates of Xiangyang City were closed, and there were fewer people coming and going on the official road.
Walking to the city gate, Lin Changsheng unexpectedly saw the martial arts brothers. The two brothers were also helping to monitor, he smiled, and went into the city with Cheng Ying and the others.
Soon, several people came to the gate of Guo's mansion and said to the soldiers guarding the door: "This brother, please also report to Guo Daxia and the Huang gang leader, that is, the disciples of the Eastern Evil came to visit." ”
The soldier frowned and glanced at the five of them. One looked at the other and said, "Please wait a while." Soon, Guo Jing and Huang Rong, who had a big belly, came out. Seeing Lin Changsheng, the two secretly glanced at each other. Huang Rong smiled: "It turned out to be Senior Brother Lin." Last time, the junior brother came and went in a hurry, but it disappointed the senior sister. ”
Lin Changsheng smiled: "Senior Sister Huang is polite. Senior sister, this is Senior Sister Cheng Ying. This is her cousin Lu Wushuang. By the way, Senior Sister, I'll introduce you to another person......" He pointed to Feng Mofeng, who was immediately excited, and said, "This is Senior Brother Feng Mofeng." ”
"Feng Mofeng ......" Huang Rong was stunned and said in surprise: "Senior Brother Feng......"
Feng Mofeng looked at Huang Rong, then at Lin Changsheng, and said tremblingly: "She...... Is that Master's daughter?"
Lin Changsheng nodded, and hurriedly stepped forward to help Feng Mofeng and unlock his acupoint. Feng Mofeng staggered, helped Lin Changsheng, looked at Huang Rong with complicated eyes, and said with trembling lips: "Master...... Huang Gang Leader, Peach Blossom Island Resident...... Is he okay?"
Seeing his excited and cautious appearance, Huang Rong suddenly lost his doubts. This appearance is almost the same as that of Lu Chengfeng back then. At this point, you have to admire Huang Yaoshi, and even Lin Changsheng is very impressed. The disciples taught by Huang Yaoshi are really stakes, and they all admire his tightness.
It seems that, in their hearts, Huang Yaoshi is like a god. This kind of believer-like mentality, Lin Changsheng is really a little incomprehensible.
Huang Rong was a little excited and said, "Senior Brother Feng, my father is very good, and he has been playing around all these years. Quick, quick, come in. Brother Jing ......" Guo Jing nodded beside him, and immediately stepped forward to support Feng Mofeng. Feng Mofeng also looked at Guo Jing curiously. He has naturally heard the names of Guo Jing and Huang Rong, especially Guo Jing, who is curious.
What kind of person will Master's son-in-law be?
How did he know that this was not Huang Yaoshi's personal reliance, but Huang Rong's stalking.
