Jiudao Villa is more than 60 miles away from Luoyang City in the north, and Peng Po Town in the northeast across the river.

Jiudao Villa is located on the southwestern periphery of the mysterious Longmen Grottoes, which has been mysterious since it appeared two hundred years ago.

In the beginning, Jiudao Villa was a very inconspicuous small thatched hut. Backed by Bauhinia Mountain, sitting west to east, three miles in front of the door is the Yi River (Luan River).

With the passage of time, Jiudao Villa has undergone two major transformations and expansions, forming its current scale and becoming a forbidden place in the martial arts.

Elderly people still vaguely remember that the location of Jiudao Mountain Villa was originally the only way to enter Bauhinia Mountain, and it was also the only way for tourists to enter the mountain to play.

Since the establishment of Jiudao Mountain Villa, the road to the Purple Mountain has been blocked, and people have slowly forgotten the towering Purple Mountain, and even the Bears Ears Mountain adjacent to the west.

If you don't forget it, you can't help it, because this place belongs to the sphere of influence of Jiudao Mountain Villa.

As long as you don't decide to have a head-on conflict with Jiudao Villa, Bears Ears Mountain and Purple Mountain are people's back gardens, and they are places where you can't be invited.

Back then, Prince Xiong thought that behind Jiudao Villa was the mountain, and he could escape with his little daughter-in-law Lan as long as he got into the mountain.

As a result, he escaped three times in a row, but he was caught shortly after entering Bauhinia Mountain, and then he was dragged back and beaten half to death.

After being captured for the third time, poor Lan was directly killed, and died in front of the eyes of the Xiong Prince, becoming a blood feud that can never be erased.

After Xia Yun was rescued by the leader of the beggar gang, she couldn't stay still anymore just because her body began to scab. And did not listen to the hard persuasion of Huang Yanying, Shen Xiyue and others, resolutely left Luoyang with his senior brother Wuchenzi, and returned to Jiudao Villa along the way.

Xia Yun called Wuchenzi Senior Brother and Pu Changnian Second Senior Brother, but the three of them were not the same master.

Wuchenzi is the eldest apprentice of Pu Youde, the owner of Jiudao Villa, and Pu Changnian is Pu Youde's only son, and the two of them are the real brothers.

Xia Yun has her own master, that is, Xiao Bijun, the Caiyun Fairy that Shangqing Immortal Gu said.

Xiao Bijun is a disciple of the Hengshan faction, and Zhu Dingchen and Lan Fengniang of the Shangqing faction are three together, and they are respected as the "three saints" by the people in the martial arts, and they are also the Dinghai Shenshen needle of the Central Plains martial arts.

The heads of the various sects all performed disciple salutes in front of these three people. It can be seen how unattainable the status of these three people in the minds of the Central Plains martial arts people is.

Xiao Bijun actually doesn't have any apprentices.

Xia Yun turned out to be not Xiao Bijun's apprentice, but a little maid who served tea and food to Xiao Bijun.

At that time, Xia Yun was only seven years old, and she was an ignorant little girl.

Two years after delivering the meal, Xia Yun grew up to nine years old, and she was still an ignorant little girl.

Xia Yun has no other task, which is to deliver two meals to Xiao Bijun every day. Then she sat at Xiao Bijun's door and counted the ants, a very responsible little girl.

After delivering food for two years, Xia Yun has never seen Xiao Bijun, and she doesn't know whether the person she is delivering food is a man or a woman, let alone her name.

Because this is a secret room made of large bluestone, the big iron door is locked all year round. Moreover, the second half of the chamber is inside the mountain wall, and there is no ventilation at all.

There is a small hole of one foot square under the big iron door, Xia Yun brings food every day at noon and night, and passes it through this small hole, and then takes out the empty bowl from the last time and washes it and sends it to the kitchen, waiting for the next time to use it again.

So Xia Yun's task is very simple, much simpler than simple.

Because the so-called meal is so simple, it is a bowl of white rice, plus a finger-sized strip of salted radish, plus a bowl of cold water.

Xia Yun is a very sensible girl since she was a child.

After two years of delivering the meal, she finally remembered that it was definitely not okay for a person to eat salted radish strips all the time, and although the kitchen was full of dishes, no one dared to give it without the order of the owner.

Xia Yun had no choice but to swap her portion of the meal with the meal that should be sent.

Although the maid's food is not good, it is just leftovers from the front hall.

But it's because those leftovers are mixed together that there's everything in there, and it's definitely much stronger than a salted radish strip.

Since then, every day at noon, Xia Yun has sent rice and salted radish strips, but in the dead of night, Xia Yun has sent her own meal.

Xia Yun is a very down-to-earth little girl.

So she never slouches and washes her rice dishes every day.

Half a year later, Xia Yun found that the empty bowl taken out of the small hole had become very clean inside.

It was so clean that you could see a trail of blood inside.

This blood mark is very strange, and it actually depicts a person, a woman, a woman holding a sword.

The woman was holding a sword, as if she was making some movements.

Xia Yun is a very smart little girl.

There is something in the bowl that should not appear, and once it is discovered by others, it doesn't matter if you are beaten to death, it is not appropriate to let the people inside also be beaten.

So Xia Yun remembered the painting in the bowl deeply, and then grabbed a handful of dirt on the ground to wipe the rice bowl dirty.

Since then, every day a woman with a sword appears in a bowl, and the form is completely different and the posture is different.

Forty-eight days later, Xia Yun's little head had memorized the postures of forty-eight women, and of course, the postures of forty-eight long swords.

Every night, Xia Yun still sat outside the iron gate as always, until her husband came over and asked her to go back to the house to sleep.

The room where Xia Yun slept was two feet away from the big iron gate, which was also a cave, but there was no locked iron door.

When the husband left, Xia Yun picked up a wooden stick and began to gesture according to the posture of forty-eight women in her small dark room.

It may also be because of those postures, Xia Yun's figure is more plump and sturdy than her peers, and she doesn't walk like others who are vain and weak.

It's been six years in the blink of an eye, Xia Yun is already fifteen years old, and she looks like a blooming white rose, which naturally attracts the attention of many people.

So, while continuing to deliver meals every day, Xia Yun added a task, which was to enter the Caiyi class to study and practice.

It didn't matter if she read this book, Xia Yun finally found that there was a wooden sign on the big iron gate where she was delivering food, and the words on it shocked her: "Great Elder Retreat".

There is only one elder in the Nine Dao Mountain Villa, that is, the Great Elder in people's mouths.

But no one had ever seen this Great Elder, and neither had Xia Yun.

Now she finally understands that the object of her eight years of delivering food is actually the Great Elder.

What shocked her was that the Great Elder had been in retreat for eight years, and all he had eaten was white rice and salted radish strips.

Another year passed, and Xia Yun's performance in reading and practicing the piano improved by leaps and bounds, and she was always in the top three among the twenty-four girls.

On this day, Xia Yun was reading, and four round middle-aged women came into the room: "Come with us, you have finished your course." ”

"Let's go?" Xia Yun didn't know why she was leaving, but she still remembered that she had her own mission, so she shook her head: "I still have to deliver food, and I won't leave." ”

"You don't have to deliver food, just come with us. ”

"I said I wouldn't leave if I didn't go. Xia Yun threw the book on the table: "I'm not from your Caiyi class, I want to deliver food to the Great Elder." ”

"It's against you!"

A round woman pounced and wanted to grab Xia Yun's right arm, but she didn't expect Xia Yun to pinch her wrist with her left hand, and then raised her right hand and slapped her four big slaps, and suddenly all the teeth in her mouth were knocked off.

"Blind your dog's eyes!"

Xia Yun, who hasn't said a word for nearly ten years, suddenly went crazy today, which belongs to the big event of the entire Jiudao Villa.

The occurrence of this kind of disobedience naturally alarmed many people, including the two instructors of the martial arts team.

The kid who ran away three times a month was captured by the two of them, and he was beaten half to death every time.

Today, I heard that there were people in the colorful clothes class who were going to rebel, and these two guys suddenly became interested, and rushed in without saying a word.

Xia Yun's pretty face was already covered with frost, and the moment she was going out, she saw two guys rushing over with swords, and she knew that she would definitely not be able to please today.

One does not do two endlessly.

Xia Yun suddenly lunged forward, his right hand attacked three moves with the finger sword, and before the two guys could react, he had already snatched a long sword, and then struggled to fight his way out of the encirclement and rushed towards the Great Elder's retreat.

Phew――

At the moment when Xia Yun rushed to the vicinity of the iron gate, a small pebble flew out of the small hole under the iron gate, and at that time, the guy who was chasing Xia Yun with a sword pierced through the eyebrows, and it simply turned into a corpse.

"She is my Xiao Bijun's apprentice, whoever dares to be disrespectful to her, I will demolish the Jiudao Villa, if you don't believe it, try it!"

After nine years of delivering food, it was the first time that Xia Yun heard the people inside the big iron gate speak.

A woman speaks, and a woman named Xiao Bijun speaks.

It may be that I haven't spoken for a long time, and the first half of the sentence is almost word by word. But when it came to "Try it if you don't believe it", he was already very fluent, and the voice spread far away, and the entire Jiudao Villa could hear the echo of these words.

Xia Yun has an identity.

The descendant disciple of the Great Elder of Jiudao Mountain Villa, this is the noble status second only to the young village master.

Xia Yun has been treated.

I have a small building of my own, three floors. It was built temporarily next to the Great Elder's Retreat.

has his own maid, two.

One is dedicated to delivering food to the Great Elder, and the other is responsible for cleaning.

With their own dedicated chef, two.

One is dedicated to cooking for Xia Yun, and the other is dedicated to cooking for the Great Elder.

Xia Yun has a status.

The Nine Dao Villa's external patrol envoys and messengers are directly responsible to the Great Elder, and no one is allowed to interfere.

Pu Youde, the owner of Jiudao Mountain Villa, specially announced it, and also gave a sword, and no one dared not listen.

But the Great Elder said that this sword can only kill chickens, and it is not something that my disciples use to kill people at all. Then he threw out a sheathed sword from the small hole under the big iron gate, which was the long sword under Xia Yun's left rib.

Now, Xia Yun, who was wearing a veil, knelt outside the big iron gate.

"I know everything you said, you don't care about things over there. Pu Changnian's little rabbit cub was not rescued, because he wanted to die. Well, that little guy from the beggar gang is very good, he actually used the Fire Dragon Pill on you, your injuries are not in the way, and they will not leave any scars. ”

Speaking of this, the voice of the Great Elder behind the big iron gate suddenly became fierce: "Dead girl, I have said it tens of thousands of times, there is no good thing for men in the world. How dare you let a man leave a shadow in your heart as the wind in your ears, it makes no sense for me to forget about it immediately!"
