43. The past is difficult to trace (3)
When Qin Chuan heard her talk about the battle of the Seven Star Sect Temple, his spirit perked up, and he couldn't help but think of the "Ten-Faced Demon King" Xiang Tinglai, and asked, "Did the Meiyue Fairy also participate in the battle to besiege the Demon Sect Temple?"
Mu Qinglan sighed and said, "There are other twists and turns in between. When Master Shicai said this, she wanted me to know about her grievances with my father. ”
"Twenty years ago, the three gangs and six factions and the Demon Sect attacked each other endlessly, and the grievances deepened: first, the Demon Sect destroyed the Taihang Gang, the Kongtong Sect and the Iron Sword Sect, and only two of the three gangs remained, and only four of the six factions remained. Later, the righteous heroes counterattacked to the Demon Sect's Star Picking Cliff, destroyed the Heavenly Absolute Palace, and burned the 'Seven Star Temple', with heavy casualties on both sides. Although the master left Emei in anger, he couldn't bear to stand by and watch, and still secretly joined the battle group. In the chaos, the master and the three heroes who came to help were mistakenly hit by the mechanism and fell into a stone room in the Demon Palace. ”
"One of the four is the ranger 'Kaishan Axe' Gongsun Lei of Hejian Mansion, Shi Yin of the Tiger Prison Pass' Miaoshou Langjun, and a Shaolin Sect layman master Geng Jie, all of whom are powerful and powerful, plus my master, the strength is not weak, but the stone room is built in the huge belly of the mountain, everyone has exhausted all kinds of means, even Gongsun Lei's double axe and Shi Yin's treasure are completely useless. ”
The four of them were locked up in a dark stone chamber for three days, only to feel that the fighting and shouting outside had gradually stopped, and the battle had ended, but they did not know who would win or lose. The four shouted in their throats, but no one responded. ”
After another two days, everyone became more and more desperate, afraid that they would be trapped in this demon chamber alive. In the silence, suddenly the stone door rolled and opened. ”
I saw several warriors in black robes of the Demon Sect rushing in with swords in their hands, and pounced on the four of them like wolves. The four of them resisted to the death, but after starving for several days, where was the opponent of the samurai, Gongsun Lei and Geng Jie died on the spot. Master and Shi Yin were captured. And put on the shackles. ”
The Demon Sect warriors escorted the two out of the stone gate, and gathered the decent people trapped elsewhere, about twenty or so captives, and pushed them out of the cave. Along the way, Master saw burned-out ruins, charred corpses, and foul odors everywhere. ”
On the way, Master paid attention to the conversations of the Demon Sect warriors who escorted them, and prepared to escort the twenty captives to the sect master. The implication is that after the temple was burned, the remnants of the Demon Cult were moved to another mountain. ”
"The mountain is very dangerous. The forest road is steep. After walking for about five or six miles, suddenly several warriors in the same costume jumped out of the dense forest opposite, wielding their swords and swords, killing all the warriors who escorted the master and them, and then with a whistle, they quickly dispersed into the forest. ”
This change came in a hurry, and everyone was stunned. I also saw a slender man in a dark robe snatching into the crowd and interspersing it around, as if he were flowing water. The sword is like the wind, and the shackles and handcuffs of everyone have been cut off one by one in an instant. It's incredible. When everyone was stunned by his amazing swordsmanship, the man in Xuanyi had already left. ”
"Everyone escaped death and looked for a way down the mountain, which can be regarded as picking up their lives. Everyone speculated. Who is the Xuanyi knight who rescued him righteously, and only my master recognized it from the Xuanyi man's body and swordsmanship, he is my father. ”
Mu Qinglan said this. Seeing that Qin Chuan was stunned when he heard this, he slowly stretched out his right hand, pressed it on the back of his hand, and said in a low voice, "Brother Chuan, what are you thinking?"
The back of Qin Chuan's hand touched her soft and delicate little hand, and under the candlelight, he saw that her five fingers were pointed, crystal white, really like a jade onion, he couldn't help but put it on his mouth and kissed it, and sighed: "I heard the Seven Star Sect Sect Leader say that the battle of the temple back then was Mu ...... Your father provoked the hatred between the various sects and the Seven Star Sect, and your father was the deputy head of the Seven Star Sect at that time. He stepped forward to save people, but he was afraid to use his heart...... Undesirable. ”
Mu Qinglan was stunned, her face was sad, and she bowed her head and said nothing.
Qin Chuan stretched out his arms around her slender waist, leaned over and kissed her on the cherry lips, and said with a smile: "Good girl, your ability to tell stories is really good, I am so drunk that I am fascinated." In the future, I will listen to you slowly, well, next time, I will start with the trick 'Black Tiger Digging Heart' that Shitai taught you!"
Mu Qinglan couldn't help laughing when she heard him say funny, and laughed out loud, and felt that she was tightly held in her arms by him, her heart was hot, her whole body was sore, she sighed softly, and said in a low voice: "Brother Chuan, I'm lucky to have met you, otherwise I really don't know what to do?"
Qin Chuan saw that she turned from sadness to joy, and her distraction plan worked, and he was happy in his heart, and said with a smile: "Actually, it is my great blessing to meet you!" Mu Qinglan smiled lightly, hugged his waist, and suddenly couldn't help but kiss him on the lips, and lay her face on him.
After a while, she raised her head and said abruptly, "Brother Chuan, I have already told Master about our affairs. Qin Chuan said, "What did Mrs. Shi say?" Mu Qinglan pursed her lips and smiled: "I won't tell you." Qin Chuan frowned, shook his head and said, "Mrs. Shi must think that I am ugly and stupid, and I am not worthy of her old man's beloved apprentice." If you let this charming little beauty marry me, it will be a flower on cow dung!"
Mu Qinglan was so amused by him, she laughed and trembled, glanced at him, shook her head and said, "Talking nonsense again!"
Qin Chuan clasped his hands together and said solemnly: "Nan Wu Amitabha! Disciple, you and Qin Shaoxia are talented and beautiful, a perfect match, a fairy couple, a match made in heaven!"
When she peeked at it, Mu Qinglan was already lying on the pillow, bending over with a smile, unable to stand up straight.
Qin Chuan thought to himself: "As long as it can make you happy and forget all your troubles, you can ask me to do anything." ”
Mu Qinglan laughed for a while, sat up, saw Qin Chuan looking at herself with a smile, and asked, "What's wrong?" Qin Chuan said: "You look so beautiful when you smile!"
Mu Qinglan's cheeks flushed, pursed her lips and smiled, slowly lowered her head, silent, and after a while, slowly raised her head again.
The two of them looked at each other, their faces were full of tenderness and sweetness, and their hearts were full of joy.
Qin Chuan saw that she was in a settled mood, so he asked, "What happened later? Why did your master accept you as an apprentice?"
Mu Qinglan was stunned for a moment, then her eyes turned red, she understood Qin Chuan's intentions, and said faintly: "Brother Chuan, I know that you don't want me to be sad, don't worry, I won't be thinking about it anymore." ”
Qin Chuan smiled slightly. Mu Qinglan looked at the candle flame, thought for a while, and said: "The figure and swordsman's body of the Xuanyi man was recognized by my master at once, and Zhilu Dao is my father, she never imagined that my father was actually a member of the Demon Sect." After everyone dispersed, she recovered from her injuries at Orion's house at the bottom of the mountain, and prepared to go to the Star Cliff alone to find out. ”
That night, Master quietly went up to the Star Picking Cliff alone. She secretly overheard the chatter of the Demon Cultists patrolling at night, saying that the Sect Master had decided to reconcile with the various sects. He stopped fighting and agreed that from now on, the disciples of this sect would not be allowed to step into the Central Plains. ”
"Master visited all over the Heavenly Absolute Palace, until midnight, when he suddenly heard the sound of the blades clashing in the back mountain, shouting and fighting, and thought that the Demon Sect must have caused a disaster. There were many dead and wounded in the dark night, and I saw a few figures fighting their way out of the encirclement, seizing the road and going down the mountain, and many people were chasing behind. The Master was hiding behind a boulder and suddenly saw the crowd fleeing down the mountain. It was my father, who was already suffering internal injuries. ”
"Master immediately rushed forward with his sword, killed the pursuers of the Demon Sect, and saved my father and several of his companions. Daddy fell unconscious on the spot. was rescued by the master, and those companions also went down the mountain to flee for their lives. ”
"A few days later, Master took my father to a remote cave to recuperate. But the whole time, my dad was unconscious. ”
"Then my dad woke up. Turned over and stood up from the grass, hugged his fist to my master and said, "Su Nuxia is a great grace to save her life, and she will not forget it." There will be a period later. He wanted to stride away. ”
"My master hurriedly said: 'You saved me first, and now I have saved you again, even if it is a tie, you don't have to thank you. My dad looked back, smiled, and said, 'Not bad.' The first beauty in martial arts, not only beautiful and artistic, but also arrogant, not let the eyebrows, admire under the admiration!' After speaking, she turned around and left again. ”
"My master said, 'Wait. You and I have dealt with each other several times, can you see the big name?" My father reported his name and said with a smile: "That day, when I was in Sanjiangkou, I first cooked the 'Mixed River Divine Crocodile' Situ Muye, and Su Nuxia must have been dissatisfied with it from the sidelines, so from Heshuo to Guanzhong, from Qinghai to Xiangxi, I have been secretly inquiring about Mu Mou's news!"
"When Master heard my father tell me about her investigation and tracking for half a year, he couldn't help but feel ashamed and angry, and sneered: 'That day, you and I didn't win or lose in the competition, and I couldn't find you. It turns out that you are a member of the Demon Sect, but fortunately, you have rebelled out of the Demon Sect and abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, but you are not a strong man!'"
Qin Chuan thought to himself: "It is true that Senior Mu rebelled against the Demon Sect, but 'abandoning the dark and turning to the light' is not necessarily, he is setting up another 'Heavenly Dao Alliance'!" He didn't want Mu Qinglan to be sad, so he was silent.
Mu Qinglan's wonderful eyes kept an eye on him, knowing his intentions, and shook his head and said: "When my father heard Master's words, he looked up to the sky and laughed, and said continuously: 'Abandoning the darkness and turning to the light, it may not be necessarily, and it may not be safe to save people in the next place! After laughing for a while, he waved his head at my master and said, "Su Nuxia, Mu has a reluctant request, I hope that today's matter will not be mentioned to Clumsy Jing, she is not a person in the rivers and lakes, and she doesn't like these nonsense things, Mu really doesn't want to bother her." Last time, Sanjiangkou made a rash move, and she didn't pay attention to me for half a month, and this time I went back to the Heavenly Palace without her. My master was amazed and said, "It turns out that Mrs. Zun doesn't like you to wander the rivers and lakes!" My father said abruptly, "Uchiko is for my good, why is it good?" ”
When she said this, she sighed softly and said leisurely: "Daddy is like this, never allow anyone to say that my mother doesn't say a word?" Master told me that maybe from then on, she fell in love with my father. ”
"Since then, Master has been walking the rivers and lakes, and he always likes to inquire about the 'Jade Noodles Langjun'. Speaking of which, the master is really pitiful, he fell in love with a married man, and he was arrogant and unwilling to confess, so he had to go away to Goryeo and wander the world. In her mind, my father is a loner, happy and vengeful person. And in my father's heart, he only regarded the master as a friend on the martial arts road. ”
"The two of them rarely meet each other on the rivers and lakes. Later, my father jumped off the cliff for my mother's martyrdom in Mount Tai, and was rescued by Master Lingdu, and after the injury was healed, he took my mother's ashes back to Chengdu from Jinan, and started 'Silan Xiaozhu', and took me to guard filial piety for my mother. When I was 11 years old, my father was scolded by my grandmother and asked Master to teach me martial arts. Brother Chuan, now I understand that Master herself doesn't know, she should have fallen in love with my father from the beginning!"
Qin Chuan nodded and said, "If your father and the Meiyue Fairy really love each other, it will not be a good thing." Mu Qinglan shook her head and sighed, "You don't know my father's temper." After my mother's death, my father was so sad that he vowed not to continue the strings, and to this day, it still is. ”
She sighed again and said, "Master told me that she did love my father and respected him as a human being. She also said that after my mother passed away, she had hinted to my father once that he was willing to hold hands and grow old together, but my father politely refused. Later, when I learned that my father had vowed not to marry another, she was disheartened, and when I was twelve years old, she saw through the red dust and cut her hair to become a nun. It wasn't until the matter of the Heavenly Dao Alliance spread all over the rivers and lakes recently that she knew about my father's ambitions, and she went down the mountain this time, intending to try to persuade my father. ”
Master Shicai said that she could not forget my father in her heart back then, and she became a nun under her will. However, these young ancient Buddhas, chanting scriptures and participating in Zen, although their practice is still shallow, they have also broken through the feelings, repented of their mistakes, pious worship to the Buddha, and realized that the Buddhists 'gain and loss follow fate, and the heart has no increase or decrease', 'the world is obsessed, and they are greedy everywhere'. ”
When Mu Qinglan said this, she glanced at Qin Chuan and said leisurely: "Master said that the past is just a passing moment for her, and she will no longer linger. She told me this to be kind to myself, and to be ...... With you. Later, his face flushed, and his voice became lower and lower, almost inaudible.
Qin Chuan remembered that the Meiyue Fairy cut her hair as a nun with a peerless appearance and a flower-like flower, and worshiped the Buddha with a green lantern for life, and couldn't help but sigh a long sigh.
Mu Qinglan said faintly: "After Master heard about my father's establishment of the 'Heavenly Dao Alliance', he was skeptical at first. All these years, she regarded my father as a heroic man who was reckless and did his own thing, and never believed that he would be ambitious and have other intentions. Later, my father admitted it and persuaded her to go out to help, and Master believed it. Now she is very angry and disappointed with my father, and after saying these words to me, she will go back to Emei Jinding!"
At this, her bright eyes widened and she showed a look of great regret.
Qin Chuan listened attentively, and suddenly heard the word "Emei Mountain", his body shook, and shouted: "What? You said that your master went to Emei?" Mu Qinglan was stunned for a moment, and said strangely: "What's wrong?" The words fell, and then his heart moved, and he said softly: "Yes, I'm really confused, are you thinking of Miss Zhuoma?"
Qin Chuan nodded, and said abruptly: "I don't know how Sister Zhuoma is doing in Emei Jinding?
At that time, the two sat side by side on the edge of the bed, facing each other, Mu Qinglan was slightly shy, gently moved to the side, and said in a low voice: "Miss Zhuoma is really blessed to have you so worried! (To be continued......) (To be continued......)
