Northern River Sword

Su Yi practiced martial arts behind closed doors for several months, and his swordsmanship has greatly improved.

The Shaoyang sword technique is mysterious and profound, the more Su Yi practices it, the more he feels that the mountains stand tall and there is no end.It's no wonder that countless people are obsessed with martial arts, and they don't hesitate to fight for the ruin of their families, and even go astray for it.

Su Yi used to hear monk Shanshui say that Shaoyang swordsmanship is profound and authentic, not an evil school of martial arts.Now that he has achieved some success in practicing this sword technique, he can prove that what Monk Shanshui said is true, that Shaoyang sword technique is indeed the most upright and pure martial art in the world.Many rumors about this sword technique in the world are all due to intentional slander by He Ruying and others, which is extremely absurd.

Su Yi said in his heart: "This sword technique was passed down by Meng Shuhe's ancestors. I can master it, so I should really thank them." He asked someone to prepare incense and candles as a tribute, and went to the ancestral hall to worship Meng Shuhe alone.

Su Yi kowtowed three times to the tablet of Meng Shuhe, and prayed: "Hero Meng, so many people in the rivers and lakes are looking for the Shaoyang sword manual, but they are all in vain after all. Can this sword manual be in my hands?" , there must be some fate, junior, thank you for your enlightenment."

He thought for a while, and then said: "I believe you were wronged for what happened back then. Mrs. Qin and Qin Xiao are both very good, and you must also be a good person with loyalty. I have received great kindness from your husband and wife, and I will avenge you As it should be. It's just that the junior's aptitude is blunt, his cultivation is still shallow, and he can't fully comprehend the essence of Shaoyang's swordsmanship. I'm afraid he won't be a match for He Ruying. I will try my best this time around, and please senior bless me to succeed in no time! "

He kowtowed a few more times, and suddenly heard footsteps approaching behind him.Qin Yanbo said: "Good boy, so you are here."

Su Yi got up and said: "Mother, my injury has healed, and I will kill He Ruying tomorrow. Just wait for my good news."

Qin Yanbo said: "I heard people say that you came to worship your father, come and have a look."

She stroked Su Yi's hair and said, "Take good care of yourself outside, don't let mother worry."

Su Yi smiled slightly and said, "My son knows."

Qin Yanbo said: "The informant's letter said that He Ruying led people to encircle and suppress Qiu Guangcheng in the Jiujiang area, set fire to the mountain, and finally let him run away. These people appear to be sanctimonious, but in fact they are cruel and vicious. Once personal gain is involved , and show no mercy to our own people. Even if we don’t do it, they will fight to the death by themselves sooner or later.”

With a thought in his mind, Su Yi asked, "Where is Qiu Guangcheng now?"

When Qin Yanbo mentioned the members of the Qiying League, he felt hatred in his heart, and said with hatred: "They are all cunning and deceitful, who knows where he is hiding!"

Su Yi remained silent, bid farewell to Qin Yanbo for a while, and found Lin Chuan, the head of the guards.The vegetation in the garden was sparse, Su Yi avoided people behind the rockery, and ordered in a low voice: "You ask someone to find a way to help me find Qiu Guangcheng's whereabouts. Once you have news about him, come and inform me immediately."

Lin Chuan said: "Master, do you want to kill Qiu Guangcheng first?"

Su Yi said: "He can't be killed, it's very useful to keep him. Don't let mother know about this for now. Remember, you must live."

Lin Chuan got the order to leave, and Su Yi said to himself: "Master Qiu, Qiu Guangcheng, this person is the biggest variable in the Qiying League... Can He Ruying be brought down, and the Qin family's stigma be cleared? It's on this person. Hero Meng, you have a soul in heaven, and you must bless me to find him."

Su Yi changed into snow-white clothes, put on the silver-white mask that Qin Xiao often wore, and held Beihe Sword in his hand.

He stood in front of the mirror, feeling a little dazed for a moment.He felt that he was Qin Xiao, Qin Xiao was himself, and they were supposed to be one person.

Su Yi drew out his sword, and the cold light illuminated his eyes.Back then, Meng Shuhe believed himself to be the best swordsman in the world, so he wanted to forge the sharpest sword in the world.He personally went to the Kunlun Mountains to find thousands of years of cold iron, and asked Weng Baiyu, a master swordsmith, to forge this sword.This sword has killed countless Xiao Xiao, and it is Meng Shuhe's favorite.It is perfect to use this sword to avenge Meng Shuhe.

At this moment, there was a whizzing sound from outside, and a small arrow shot in.

Su Yi shouted: "Who?"

He chased it out, but there was no one outside.Su Yi turned and went back to the room, a piece of cloth was tied on the little arrow.Su Yi unfolded the cloth, and saw that it said: "Young Master Su. Please come to Longquan Temple for a talk today at You Hour."

Su Yi was startled, and couldn't help shivering, thinking: "This man calls me Mr. Su, he knows who I am? Who is he? Why did he ask me to meet at Longquan Temple?"

Su Yi saw that the sun was setting to the west outside, and unitary hour was approaching.He thought for a moment, "It's a blessing, not a disaster. A disaster can't be avoided. It doesn't matter who he is, I'll find out when I go and have a look."

Su Yi rushed to Longquan Temple, and a young novice was waiting in front of the mountain gate. When he saw him, he clasped his palms together and said, "Amitabha. Master is waiting in the meditation room. Donor, please come with me."

At this time, the sun was setting and the evening wind was bleak.Su Yi walked to the front of the meditation room, a great monk looked at the thick clouds in the sky, thoughtful.Hearing footsteps, he turned around, smiled at Su Yi and said, "Young Master Su, you're here."

Su Yi was startled, and said happily, "Master Shanshui, it turned out to be you."

Monk Shanshui said: "Of course it's me. Long time no see, this poor monk invites you to have a cup of clear tea. I wonder if it's disturbing your purity?"

Su Yi hurriedly said: "How could it be, the Great Master's fairy trail is uncertain, this time I'm willing to grant him a visit, this junior can't wait for it."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and walked into the meditation room together.Monk Shanshui personally cooked tea to entertain the guests, while Su Yi sat in a well-behaved manner, but looked around.The furnishings in the room were the same as before, but the scrolls he had seen the last time were gone.

Monk Shanshui poured tea for him, and the aroma in the meditation room was dense, clean and elegant, making people feel peaceful and peaceful.

Monk Su Yimeng Shanshui taught inner strength and mental methods, and he regarded him as half a master in his heart.He was very concerned about Monk Shanshui, and couldn't help but ask, "Where did Master go in the past six months? I thought you were caught in an accident and taken away."

Monk Shanshui felt slightly surprised, and said, "What happened? Who did you hear from?"

Su Yi then recounted how he visited Longquan Temple a few months ago and saw an acrostic poem left in the calligraphy and painting in his meditation room, saying that he was captured by Qin Xiao.Monk Shanshui laughed and said: "With the ability of the benefactor Qin, it is still impossible to subdue the poor monk easily."

Su Yi also felt that no matter how good Qin Xiao's martial arts were, he might not be able to take away Monk Shanshui.He frowned and said, "So the calligraphy was not left by the master?"

Monk Shanshui said: "Not only is it not, I have never even seen it."

Su Yi was very surprised, and said: "Then who would stay? What is that person doing this for?"

Monk Shanshui pondered: "I have been avoiding people from the Qiying League for these years, hoping to stay away from the disputes in the Jianghu. It's just that the Jianghu has been turbulent again recently, and the poor monk can't stay out of it safely. Half a year ago, He Ruying finally found out that I was in this Longquan Temple. Cultivation, I want to attack me. I learned the news in advance and went out to avoid disaster. From my point of view... He Ruying probably came here in the middle of nowhere and felt dissatisfied, so he left a calligraphy and painting for Young Master Qin. Think It makes people think that I was taken away by him, so as to embarrass him."

Su Yi roughly guessed the same in his heart, and he heard Monk Shanshui say this, he couldn't help being annoyed, and said: "He Ruying is the leader of the Qiying League, why is he so narrow-minded, he always has to make trouble with Qin Xiao!"

Monk Shanshui said: "The two of them are endless enemies. Either you die or I die. He wants to get rid of not only Qin Xiao, but also me and Qiu Sange. Those who participated in the siege of Mengshu River back then knew that None of us can escape the good deeds he has done.”

Su Yi said in his heart: "He Ruying even worshiped his brother and refused to let him go. This kind of person is a real villain. But he still has the face to harm people everywhere under the banner of justice. It's really hateful!"

He frowned and said, "A few days ago, He Ruying set fire to the mountain and chased and killed Qiu Guangcheng wantonly. Does Master know about this?"

Monk Shanshui did not answer.Su Yi said: "Fortunately, he escaped. He Ruying created a storm for nothing, but failed to catch anyone, and lost all face. They are sworn brothers, why did it have to go to this point."

Monk Shanshui said: "Of course it is for the Shaoyang Sword Manual."

Su Yi was speechless for a moment.Monk Shanshui said: "This matter is closely related to you, and I don't need to keep it a secret. I invited you here today to tell you what happened back then."

Su Yi's heart skipped a beat, and he said solemnly: "Master, please tell me."

Monk Shanshui said: "Meng Shuhe practiced the Shaoyang swordsmanship back then, and the Shaoyang swordsmanship was coveted by others. In order to obtain the Shaoyang swordsmanship, He Ruying created a bloody murder of the Hu family with the Golden Whip, leaving clues to kill people. The suspicion pointed to Meng Shuhe. Among the members of the Qiyingmeng, Hu Tianxing and Liu Lingyin did not know the truth and wanted to kill Meng Shuhe for revenge. It was He Ruying who used them to raise the banner of righteousness. Xue Zhonghao, the former leader of the Beggar Gang, was jealous of evil. Hearing that Meng Shuhe had harmed his comrades, he joined the Qiying League to eliminate harm for the martial arts. Later, he accidentally discovered that Meng Shuhe was not the murderer of the Hu family, so he wanted to stop the others. Ruying suspected that he had discovered the truth, and was afraid that he would expose himself, so he plotted and murdered Xue Zhonghao, and later pushed the murder case to Meng Shuhe. I know the cause of Xue Zhonghao's death, and the others should also know it. .After this incident, everyone is on the same boat, and it’s impossible to think about it.”

Su Yi was dumbfounded, and said: "It turns out that the old sect leader Xue was killed by He Ruying and the others, yes... the way he killed my master was also the same! Could it be that the master also participated in this matter?"

Monk Shanshui sighed and said, "Amitabha. Although I didn't do anything at the time, I didn't stop it either. In the final analysis, I cannot escape the blame."

Su Yi remained silent, and Monk Shanshui continued: "I, Qiu Guangcheng and Xie Biao were all aware of He Ruying's evil deeds at the time, but everyone coveted the Shaoyang Sword Manual in their hearts, so they became He Ruying's accomplices. Although Hu Tianxing and Liu Lingyin didn't know the truth, they also wanted to get the Shaoyang Sword Manual. We agreed that when Meng Shuhe was killed, we would copy seven copies of the Shaoyang Sword Manual and become number one in the world together."

Su Yi said contemptuously: "Everyone is number one in the world, that means there is no number one. How can such a smart person as He Ruying tolerate others being equal to him!"

Monk Shanshui said: "You are right. At that time, Xie Biao came forward and said that the sword manual would naturally be given to the leader of the Qiying League. Everyone had their own ghosts in their hearts, and no one agreed. They killed Meng Shuhe and forced Qin Yanbo to hand him over. Release the sword manual. Qin Yanbo refused, Xie Biao had already prepared, stole her child in advance, and threatened Qin Yanbo to hand over the sword manual."

Su Yi angrily said: "It's so despicable and shameless, to threaten a mother with a child! Xie Biao, that despicable villain, deserves his death!"

Monk Shanshui said: "Qin Yanbo had no choice but to hand over the sword manual. At this time, Qiu Guangcheng snatched the Shaoyang sword manual and said that he would keep it for everyone. How can everyone believe this, he must hand it over Qiu Guangcheng got annoyed and threatened to destroy the sword manual. Everyone didn't dare to press too hard, so they said they had to think long-term. He Ruying was afraid that Qin Yanbo would seek revenge on him in the future, so he wanted to kill her to silence her."

Su Yi's hands were covered with cold sweat. Although he was listening to what happened before, he was as nervous as if he was actually there, and asked: "And then?"

Shanshui monk said: "At that time, I felt that the crime of killing was too heavy. I was really disturbed when I killed so many lives for my own self-interest. I was repenting in my heart, but He Ruying said: 'Brother Gongsun, this woman and child are up to you. Let's do it." He felt that my hands hadn't been stained with blood, and he was afraid that I would betray them and expose their crimes in the future, so he asked me to submit a nomination certificate. I didn't dare to refuse him, so I had to agree, but when I did it, I deliberately I stabbed the sword a little bit. Although Qin Yanbo was seriously injured, he survived. As for that child, I wanted to leave him in the wild to see his luck. If I get down, I'm afraid it will be a big trouble in the future. I slapped the child on the back and beat him until he was breathless, and he will naturally wake up after a few hours."

Su Yi heaved a sigh of relief, his heart skipped a beat, and he said, "Master is really compassionate, thanks to you for saving their mother and child. That child is Qin Xiao, right?"

Monk Shanshui said: "That's right. I was worried, so I went back to see their mother and child in secret. The child woke up crying and woke up his mother. Qin Yanbo narrowly escaped death and fled back to Dali. She and Meng Shuhe still have a son. She was sent to a friend's house for refuge. Unfortunately, her friend was unreliable. Hearing that people from the Qiying League were coming, she quietly threw the child away for fear of getting into trouble, but told Mrs. Qin that the child was killed by the Qiying League. people took it away."

Su Yi groaned, very indignant, and said: "Thanks to Mrs. Qin entrusting the child to them, why are they so disrespectful!"

Monk Shanshui sighed: "It is easy to add flowers to the icing on the cake, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow. Since ancient times, human relations have been like this. In the face of adversity, everyone protects himself."

Su Yi felt a little sad in his heart, and said: "Mrs. Qin is really pitiful. She lost her husband first and then her son. She must have been suffering in her heart these years. No wonder her temper is so cold."

Monk Shanshui stared at Su Yi, and said: "The child is not dead, he was picked up by people from the beggars' sect, brought him up, and he is living a very good life now. If the Mengshu River has a spirit in heaven, he should also feel relieved."

Su Yi's heart skipped a beat, and he understood what he meant in an instant, but was speechless for a long time.

Monk Shanshui smiled slightly, and turned to say: "As for the people from the Qiying League, they fought to get the sword manual. During the fight, Liu Qimei was accidentally injured by Xie Biao and died. Hu Tianxing was in a hurry and wanted to fight with Xie Biao. He Ru Ying turned to Xie Biao, Qiu Guangcheng wanted to survive, so he teamed up with Hu Tianxing and asked me to be his helper. At this moment, there was a burst of fragrance from the bonfire, and everyone was unprepared. After a while, they didn't know anything. When everyone woke up , the sword manual has disappeared.”

Su Yi was surprised and said: "I see...someone must have hidden the drug in some kind of projectile, bamboo or wood in advance, after the fire, the outer shell will crack, and the heat will evaporate and move it, so that it can take advantage of people's unpreparedness. Many masters. The question is who put this medicine?"

Monk Shanshui said: "I don't know either. At that time He Ruying had the highest cultivation level, Xie Biao and Qiu Guangcheng were next, and Hu Liudi and I had the weakest internal strength. I only fainted for a moment, then woke up and woke Hu Liudi. Qiu Guangcheng Instead, he wakes up the latest, which is very unreasonable."

Su Yi said: "Do you suspect that Qiu Guangcheng did it? Could it be that he hid the drug in the fire in advance, and when everyone passed out, he hid the sword manual, and then said that the sword manual was stolen?"

Monk Shanshui said: "That's right. At that time, everyone thought so, and no one believed his words. Xie Biao wanted to kill Qiu Guangcheng, but he was afraid that he would rather die than reveal the whereabouts of the Shaoyang Sword Manual, so he didn't dare Let’s do it. At this time, the beggars’ gang arrived, and everyone had to pretend to be friendly in front of outsiders for the sake of face. He Ruying also made everyone swear that they would never mention this matter again for the rest of their lives.”

Su Yi said in his heart: "So that's it. It seems that the sword manual is finally in Qiu Guangcheng's hands. All these years, He Ruying has been forcing him hard, all because of the Shaoyang sword manual. Qiu Guangcheng tried his best, but in the end he got nothing. The rest is embarrassing."

Monk Shanshui said: "I have told you everything I know, what else do you want to ask?"

Su Yi hesitated for a long time, and finally said: "Qin Xiao...is he really my brother?"

Monk Shanshui smiled and said, "That's right. He is your brother. You are the child of Meng Shuhe and Qin Yanbo. Over the years, I have always felt sorry for your parents and tried every means to find out your whereabouts. I became a monk in Dali to find Your whereabouts, I didn't expect you to be adopted by Elder Su of the Beggar Clan and brought back to the Central Plains."

Su Yi felt emotional in his heart, tears welled up in his eyes, and he couldn't help but shed tears.

Monk Shanshui said: "Although I have been a monk for these years and recited scriptures day and night to repent, I still can't find peace in my heart. I helped the tyrant and killed Hero Meng. This crime must be redeemed, otherwise I will fall into the endless hell and suffer endlessly. Painful. You kill me to avenge Hero Meng."

Su Yi was shocked, and hurriedly said: "Master taught me martial arts, and also told me about my life experience, and he has treated me as much as a mountain, how could I kill you."

Monk Shanshui said: "I taught you martial arts to make up for my crimes. You have suffered a lot these years, so I should try my best to make up for it. You don't have to take it to heart."

Su Yi shook his head and said: "When did you repay your injustice? Back then you were persecuted by He Ruying and did a lot of unavoidable things. But if you hadn't had kind thoughts in your heart and mercifully saved my mother and elder brother, they wouldn't be alive today .No matter what, you are kind to us, and I am still grateful to you."

Shanshui monk was a little bit emotional, clasped his palms together and said: "Good, good, my little friend has not entered Buddhism, but he has Buddha nature. The poor monk has chanted the scriptures tens of thousands of times, but he can't break the word of gratitude and resentment. I'm really ashamed."

When Su Yi thought of his parents, he felt melancholy. He thought he was a lonely duckweed, but suddenly he had roots and a home.Somewhere, it seems that there is God's will, guiding him back to his relatives.

Qin Yanbo's eyes were warm, and she gave Su Yi a maternal love that he had never felt before.Su Yi once imagined how wonderful it would be if she was really his mother, but now the dream has come true.

Su Yi didn't want to lose his family members again, he secretly made up his mind to protect them at all costs.He Ruying has gone crazy in order to obtain the Shaoyang swordsmanship, and he must not let the tragedy happen again.

Monk Shanshui saw through his thoughts and said with a smile: "Little friend, come here with your ear, the poor monk has one more thing to tell you."
