Huafa Luoyang

Chapter 4 Martial Arts Feast

The two of them withdrew their hands at the same time, and the man in black couldn't dodge in time. He was cut in the forearm by the scimitar, and the scimitar flew around and returned to the master's hand.

It was the boy who fought with the old man in the west courtyard in the afternoon.

The three of them have gone through a few moves, the ghost-masked man seems to have left room for his subordinates, even so, the young man is still gradually unable to hold back, and retreats steadily.

Seeing that the fight was getting closer and closer to the two, and the situation was critical, Xun Luo immediately pulled out three throwing knives and threw them one after another.One hit the left shoulder of the man in black, the other slammed into the mask of the ghost-masked man, and when the ghost-masked dodged, the third went straight for his hand.

The ghost-faced man reacted very quickly, and immediately let go of his hand. The flying knife nailed the thing in his hand to the ground, almost killing him.

The two glanced at this side, seeing that the situation was not right, the figures fled separately, the young man hesitated for a moment, and the other party had disappeared into the night.

He looked at the flying knives on the ground, and said loudly: "Qi Lian sent Qi Yun, thank you hero for saving your life, can your benefactor show up and see you?"

When they appeared from behind the woods, the young man recognized them at a glance, and was about to salute immediately, Zhuang Jiuyao grabbed him: "Brother Qi, you don't have to be polite, anyway, Brother Xun has nothing to do in his spare time." .”

Qi Yun clasped his fists at Xun Luo again: "Thank you, Brother Xun."

Xun Luo nodded lightly: "Thank you, Brother Zhuang, the flying knife belongs to him."

"Huh?" Zhuang Jiuyao raised his eyebrows suspiciously.

Xun Luo explained: "I found it in your yard, and I brought it with me by the way."

"Oh." Zhuang Jiuyao dragged out his accent and smiled, "Anyway, we are not outsiders."

Xun Luo ignored him, just went to the ground to look at the thing, picked it up and found it was a bag with a layer of impermeable cloth inside, opened it and found white powder.He sent the things to Zhuang Jiuyao.

Zhuang Jiuyao glanced at him with a serious look, took his hand, twisted it with his fingertips, looked at it carefully for a while under the moonlight, and said, "Broken Yin."

He turned to look at Qi Yun: "Why did you appear here in the middle of the night?"

Qi Yun took out a note from his sleeve and handed it to him: "After I returned to my room, I found this on the table, saying that the person who framed Yaowanggu would appear by the forest in the middle of the night. I didn't sleep, and I waited here early in the morning place."

Before Zhuang Jiuyao could make a move, Xun Luo had already taken the paper, and habitually reached out to touch it, and found that there were slight bumps on the paper.It should be the dark pattern of a peony on it, but people who have not been specially trained can't touch it.

He felt tense for a moment, but his face was still calm, and he handed the note to Zhuang Jiuyao: "Whether or not the medicine can be handed out tonight is probably in the calculation of others."

"Since someone is expected to show up, why did you call Brother Qi specifically?" Zhuang Jiuyao raised his eyebrows lightly.

Qi Yun guessed softly: "Is it to let me find out that the masked man in black is the old man of the Hammer Gang in the afternoon?"

The two looked at each other in the night, knowing each other.

In the afternoon, Zhuang Jiuyao told Xun Luo that although the Iron Hammer Gang is a low-level gang, it has an inseparable secret connection with the Qishan School.

It seems that Fang Qishan, the head of the sect, had been kind to the gang leader for saving his life. Over time, the Iron Hammer Gang became an outside helper. With the help of his status as the bottom of the rivers and lakes, it is much more convenient to do things, so he specially handles some things that cannot be seen for the Qishan faction. .

Almost no one in the rivers and lakes knows about this.

Come to destroy the marriage of one's benefactor's family, this kind of favor is so unique.

Qi Yun obviously hadn't heard about the series of incidents that happened in Shu before, but seeing the two people were silent, he thought of the words of the Iron Hammer Gang leader in the afternoon, so he asked, "Is this thing related to the Medicine King Valley? The old man said in the afternoon that Broken Yin is Something from Medicine King Valley."

"Boy," Zhuang Jiuyao smiled, "The old man bullies you like this, you still call him old man?"

Qi Yun said seriously: "Other people's actions belong to others. He is an elder, so I naturally have to be polite."

Zhuang Jiuyao nodded, but couldn't see that he really agreed.Xun Luo asked: "Why do you care so much about Yaowang Valley? Qilian faction is a big faction anyway, why are you alone in the small west courtyard?"

The three of them walked back together, Qi Yun showed a look of sadness that didn't match his age, and frowned and explained: "Brother Xun doesn't know something, the teacher of the family passed away two months ago, and the Qilian sect... due to various reasons, has only There is only an empty shell left. I was promoted by the elder to the head of the sect, and I had to attend when I received the invitation. This time I came with the elder, in addition to congratulating and asking the leader to help, but the elder fell seriously ill halfway... He also passed away. As for the Valley of the Medicine King, the owner of the valley once saved my mother's life, so I naturally believe that he is not a bad person."

"That afternoon in the courtyard, Wu Baixing was right in front of you, why didn't you say you wanted to see him alone?" Zhuang Jiuyao asked.

Qi Yun bowed his head: "The Qilian faction has fallen so far, and the seats can only be seated in the courtyard. It is my fault to disrupt the afternoon seats, and I can't say anything else."

Xun Luo said lightly: "And you don't want to ask him."

Qi Yun raised his head, his round eyes fixed on Xun Luo.Xun Luo suddenly stretched out his hand to touch his head, because he was not used to being close to people, his palm could be retracted as soon as he touched it, and it looked like a slap: "One day the Qilian faction will revive, don't forget the current state of mind .”

The conveyance of kindness was not hindered by stiffness, the boy nodded gratefully.

The three of them returned to the Wu residence just before dawn, the darkest hour of the day.

Qi Yun had already returned to his room, and walked to the door of Xun Luo, Xun Luo put his hand on the door, Zhuang Jiuyao suddenly asked: "Do you have a state of mind that you can't forget?"

Xun Luo looked back at him for a while, but couldn't make out the expression on his face: "Yes."

Zhuang Jiuyao chuckled, and Xun Luo asked, "What about you?"

"I have it too." Zhuang Jiuyao's voice was low, and he suddenly couldn't hear the familiar smile, "But I don't want to remember, so I will do everything I can to break that state of mind, trample my weak and troubled self into the dirt, or destroy, Or newborn."

As soon as the voice fell, the sky suddenly brightened and dawn broke.

Zhuang Jiuyao looked at the gray-blue fish-belly white in the distance, and smiled again: "It's like at this moment, it's only dark when it's completely dark."

Those eyes that were always smiling couldn't see his emotions clearly at this moment, Xun Luo put his hand on the door and remained motionless, Zhuang Jiuyao walked towards his room, stretched out his hand to help him push.

The door opened with a creak, and Zhuang Jiuyao withdrew his hand, fingers brushing the back of his hand intentionally or unintentionally.

Xun Luo's heart twitched slightly, like a feather flicking over the tip of his heart, the itch was fleeting, and Zhuang Jiuyao's voice changed back to laziness: "Take a good rest, there is still a big show to watch today."

This martial arts feast is the most prosperous theater in the rivers and lakes. Since it is lively, it always doesn't mind adding icing on the cake.

When the auspicious time arrived, the entire hall was filled with people watching the ceremony. Naturally, a wild school like the Luohai School would not have a good place to stand.Zhuang Jiuyao wanted to go up to the roof, but was grabbed by Xun Luo, he turned around and rolled his eyes: "Just kidding."

In the end, the two found Qi Yun and stood on the periphery of the crowd together.

People in Jianghu don't talk too much red tape, the three of them only saw a big red umbrella which means "spread branches and leaves" is higher than everyone's heads, and a red gauze floats under the corner of the umbrella, and a couple has already stood in the hall.

Fang Qin, the young master of the Qishan School, is a fair-skinned young man with a dignified appearance and a formidable upright spirit.Wu Shuiyan has a slender figure and graceful actions. Although she also practices martial arts, she doesn't show a trace of heroic spirit. Instead, she looks like a lady of a traditional official family.

"What a pair of Tanlang Xie daughters." Zhuang Jiuyao smiled.

The ceremony is completed, and the couple enters the bridal chamber.

On the stage, Wu Baixing, Mrs. Wu and Fang Qishan sat firmly in the lobby, and after a while Fang Qin reappeared in the lobby, receiving congratulations from the entire martial arts world together.

Zhuang Jiuyao looked bored, Xun Luo secretly guessed that he must want to make trouble in the bridal chamber later.Qi Yun beside him stood upright, which made the two adults who were leaning on the pillar very unattractive.

The excitement doesn't mean to stop.

There was a commotion all around, and suddenly a person came rushing outside and whispered something in Wu Baixing's ear.After hearing this, Wu Baixing stood up quickly, the joy on his face couldn't even suppress his usual solemn posture.

He took two steps outside the hall, and everyone realized that some important person was coming, but the congratulatory gift from the imperial court had already been delivered, and it was impossible to guess who it would be, so they all tried their best to maintain their demeanor while making way Stretched his neck.

Xun Luo tugged at Zhuang Jiuyao's sleeves, Zhuang Jiuyao, who was looking in the direction of the bridal chamber, looked back, and saw a middle-aged man in white walking towards the lobby from the main entrance, holding a brocade box in his hand, seven inches square, It looks like it has a lot of weight.

The man looked very Daoist and immortal, but he was more real than the Taoist priests watching the ceremony.

Xun Luo never cared about these things, his face was still indifferent, but Zhuang Jiuyao stared at the brocade box with great interest, as if he wanted to see through it before giving up.

The man holding the brocade box had already stepped into the lobby, Wu Baixing went up to meet him, the two seemed to have known each other for a long time.Wu Baixing clasped his fists, the man accepted it safely, and then saluted back, holding the brocade box in front of Wu Baixing: "The hookah girl is overjoyed, Fang Shaoxia is overjoyed. President Wu, this is a congratulatory gift from the old leader."

The former martial arts leader, who is also Wu Baixing's master, has retired for many years and ignored world affairs, and has become a legend in the world.The old alliance leader didn't even attend the funeral of his own son, and now that his disciple and grandson are married, he sent someone to send congratulatory gifts, which is really unexpected.

Wu Baixing took the brocade box with both hands, and was about to hand it to the wife behind him, but the man asked, "Will President Wu open it?"

The people around were also very eager to see what happened, Wu Baixing called out "Qin'er", Fang Qin took two steps forward, and stretched out his hand respectfully.

Wu Baixing put the brocade box in the hands of his son-in-law, stretched out his hand to open it, looked at it with a smile, but suddenly opened his eyes wide.

At the same time, a dagger pierced towards Wu Baixing's chest with lightning speed.After all, he was a man who had been through hardships for decades. Wu Baixing had already realized it in an instant, and stretched out his palm to pat the man.

When he was about to make another move, Fang Qin next to him had already thrown the brocade box into the hands of the people around him, and went up to the enemy without hesitation.

Zhuang Jiuyao who was watching lightly clicked his tongue.

The accident happened suddenly, everyone did not expect it, they were confused, and saw that the person who caught the brocade box trembled, and threw the brocade box down with a scream, and a white-haired head fell out of it, and rolled a few times , barely stopped before the threshold.

The bleeding face of the old alliance leader's seven orifices was completely exposed for a moment, and he was so big and slanted towards the sky, his expression seemed to be in a dream.

Even if the guests here are all knights and warriors who have been rolling their knives for a long time, they couldn't help but gasp.

Just in this moment, before Fang Qin's palm touched the man, the man paused expressionlessly, and then there was a loud "bang", limbs and flesh and blood flew all over the yard.

It turned out to be a dead man, who had committed suicide, and died a tragic death.

Fang Qin hurriedly backed away, still covered in blood.He didn't care too much, and went to see his father-in-law, while his father Fang Qishan said solemnly: "The dagger is poisoned."

Wu Baixing stared at the palm closest to him, blood dripping in his eyes, only hatred left.He was so dumbfounded that he turned his head and saw his teacher's head again. After seeing the blood on his face and the peaceful expression, he called his son Wu Huaisheng in an unsteady voice: "Son, go and take a look at your teacher's eyes." .”
