Bright Moon and Cold Thousand Mountains

In such a vast rivers and lakes, most people in the martial arts do not like to work behind closed doors. They often get together to chat and talk, and the conveners are usually highly respected.The small gatherings of friends became more and more grand, and there was an unwritten rule since when. Whoever can organize such a meeting can prove that whoever has a superior status in the martial arts.

The piano appreciation banquet at Miaoyin Pavilion and the sword discussion meeting at Ziyang Temple have been going on for a hundred years, and the Qingchao meeting of Beichuan School is undoubtedly a wonderful flower in the martial arts world.

Different from the others who are either romantic or elegant, or carefree to learn from each other, Qingtan will focus on discussion and analysis, and will not refuse anyone who comes, relying solely on verbal skills.The time is as short as half a month, and the time is as long as several months, because there are so many involved, it doesn't happen every year, and some of the previous teachers have devoted themselves to the practice, and they don't take it too seriously.

Shang Zihuai was originally this kind of person.

He has been in charge for ten years and has never mentioned the matter of the symposium.This year's sudden publicity, in addition to the imperial court's troubles behind it, Xi Lanyu may also be responsible for it——

"Is that Xi Lanyu?" Wendi asked in a low voice.

Lingxi was standing beside him, and when he heard the words, he boldly took a look, and said doubtfully, "Seeing Master's expression, it should be... except Xi Lanyu, no one can overwhelm Shang Zihuai's limelight here."

Wendi let out a "huh", thinking silently, this sapphire is far from the image he had heard before.

The venue of the seminar is very large. If everyone wants to hear a long speech, the speaker must rely on deep internal strength.When the two sides are fighting each other, they are also competing for internal strength.

In the center is a round platform, named "Ming De", on which there are eight square table cases, on which sit the masters of the eight martial arts sects who are well-known in the martial arts world, while the rest of the disciples are spread out. harmonious.

At this time, standing on the Mingde stage was a tall, thin middle-aged man with a beautiful beard and long eyebrows, but without the slightest sense of immortality. Jade.

This person was born in Beichuan school where Confucianism is respected, but he has learned the strengths of a hundred schools of thought, and his knowledge is comprehensive in Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism. He was honored as a guest by Wenfa Temple and Ziyang Temple.It is said that Xi Lanyu's martial arts are unfathomable, and his swordsmanship is superb, without flaws, but he is also a sweetheart, willing to go through fire and water for his best friends and teachers.

According to word of mouth, there is nothing wrong with such a personality, knowledge, and martial arts. He is almost a perfect person.

Wen Di saw the middle-aged man on the stage with a playful expression.As if aware of what he was thinking, Lingxi next to him asked without losing the opportunity: "Did senior brother think of Huashan School?"

"No, I just want to know what this perfect skin looks like..." Wen Di stared at Xi Lanyu, hearing his boastful benevolence, righteousness and loyalty, and suddenly smiled mockingly.

Lingxi was used to the occasional uncertainty of senior brother, but felt that his appearance was a bit strange, so he turned his head and stopped asking, and continued to listen to Xi Lanyu's discussion.

In less than half a cup of tea, someone stood up from the banquet and started to debate with him.That person was a Taoist nun of some age, her Taoist robe was washed white, and the corners were still damaged, but she sat on the upper seat of Ziyang Temple.

Wen Di frowned: "Is there a dispute between Confucianism and Taoism? Who is that person?"

"That's Taoist Qingniu." Lingxi whispered, "Daoist Master Shishan's junior sister, one of the six real people in the Ziyang Temple'Liuhe Guiyi', I heard that she had faced the wall and lived without the valley for seven years before she cultivated the true fruit, and she walked the rivers and lakes all year round. Use the method of entering the world to seek the way to escape from the world. There are many lay disciples under this seat, and he is one of the seven who are full of peaches and plums. This time, Daoist Shi Shan said he was sick and asked his junior sister to come here for him, so he is in the seat."

Wen Di said casually: "Sure enough, there are some virtues."

He praised Taoist Qingniu, and suddenly Xuanhuang, who was passing by in the crowd, winked at Wendi.Rolling his eyes, Wen Di felt that his mind was about to become a mess.

Indeed, Xuanhuang agreed to make a deal with them, and the price for Wendi was to betray his master—even if he didn’t regard Xixiu Mountain as his master—to help them steal all the secret books of "Heaven and Earth Kungfu".If he can't do it, the other party will naturally not let it go. It's too difficult to make them not aware of their own weakness in the so-called fighting with their lives.

Xuanhuang's voice sounded out of place in his mind: "Try to let Xi Lanyu stab you with a sword, and intensify the conflict between Twelfth Floor and Beichuan School, Zuo Nian will stand up for you..."

Take a gamble...?

To Zuo Nian, can he be discarded at any time like Yu Zheng and Song Min'er, or will Zuo Nian hesitate for a moment when Zuo Nian decides on his life due to his skill?

Wendi clenched his hands tightly.

On Mingde stage, Xi Lanyu talked eloquently.

Wendi looked around calmly, and saw all the beings in the audience, some were already yawning, and some were still concentrating.He couldn't find Liu Shiqi, and when he looked at the stage again, he suddenly had an idea.

At noon, the shadow under the feet was shrunk into a small ball by the autumn sun.

"The Taoist priest has something to say, but Xi is too late." Xi Lanyu smiled, and suddenly turned to the high platform in all directions, and said loudly, "You come and go, it's meaningless for others to watch. Just now you and I are so close It's speculation, but I don't know if all the sages here are bored? This is going against my faction's original intention!"

Taoist Qingniu also smiled and said: "That's right, I'm just concentrating on refuting Mr.'s words, but I don't want a thousand people to have a thousand people's way. You and I are talking too much here. I should ask everyone here for their opinions."

Xi Lanyu cupped her hands: "I hope everyone will give you advice! The more secret books on economics, the better!"

He made this headline, and most of those present who listened carefully did not dare to directly refute it, and began to write their own drafts.Being able to seize the opportunity to compete with a master, even if it is just verbal, can benefit endlessly, not to mention that Xi Lanyu said that it is not limited to the classics of learning, so it seems that it is not impossible to take this opportunity to learn martial arts with him?

Everyone was still pondering over how to say it more euphemistically. Zhao Yang, the head of the Huashan School on the southwest side, said first: "What Mr. Xi said is what Mr. Zhao thinks. The so-called 'benevolence and righteousness', nowadays, cares about the latter and despises it. The former. Killing to stop killing should never be respected."

One person suddenly said: "Master Zhao is right."

Zhao Yang flicked his beard lightly, and was about to continue, when a young voice suddenly came from the audience: "Since the head of Zhao is so contemptuous of killing and stopping killing, what do you think about the revenge of Elder Xu from the noble sect that day?"

Everyone was shocked, Zhao Yang looked at the voice in surprise, but it was a young man he didn't know.He stood in the corridor, looked at Zhao Yang's sneering expression, and said, "Seeing the reactions of seniors, don't you know? The Huashan faction is in full swing, and they are trying to drag the twelfth floor into the water...Left leader, Don't you think so?"

Wen Di also looked over, and he recognized the jade pendant on the man's waist as something mysterious and yellow. It can be seen that his face was stiff, and he must have put a mask on himself just now like lightning, and he immediately understood that this was what Xuan Huang said The "bureau".

Zuo Nian, who had been named, didn't respond to him, and some disciples of the Huashan School couldn't sit still. They were already holding back their anger, but at this moment, regardless of Huang Yuanyi and Zhao Zhen's dissuasion, they said one after another:

"What are you!"

"When it comes to the Huashan School, has it ever been the turn of outsiders to point fingers?"

The upright and dignified discussion hall suddenly became noisy. Xi Lanyu didn't expect such an accident to happen. She frowned, but she didn't try to dissuade her. Instead, she stood unfathomably by the side, and her sharp eyes fell on Zhao Yang. body.

The head of the Huashan sect is not strict at ordinary times, and his own position is not stable. Most of the voices at this moment are from the sect Xu Changtian.

I don't know who is quick to speak in the noise, and the voice came out in troubled waters: "The twelfth floor has no grievances or enmity with my Huashan faction. A lancet was found in the elder's house and plums were planted in the melon field. Are they really innocent?!"

As soon as this remark came out, even the [-]th floor was in an uproar.

Zuo Nian looked at Wen Di, and he made a "doubtful" expression just right, but Zuo Nian squinted his eyes a little, knowing that he was going to show up.Wen Di cursed inwardly, "You want to save face and treat yourself as his mouth again", lightly jumped up to the high platform, stood in front of Zhao Yang, and raised his hand to stop the dissatisfied voices on the [-]th floor.

"There are so many people talking, I hope head Zhao will not be offended." Wendi apologized politely, then turned to Xi Lanyu, and said with a smile, "The younger children in our sect have never seen this kind of world, so they can't bear to be insulted. Mr. laughed."

Xi Lanyu showed displeasure: "Who are you?"

Wendi smiled reservedly, and said: "The disciple on the twelfth floor, Wendi, dared to ask Mr. Xi for advice."

Xi Lanyu was annoyed at him for interrupting her, so she raised her eyebrows slightly after hearing this, thinking that it seemed a bit interesting that this person stood up for Twelfth Floor, and most of her unhappiness subsided, and said: "It turns out that it is the young man under the left head Friend, please speak."

"The massacre of the Huashan faction, sir, have you heard about it?"

"Master Zhao told you the day before yesterday."

"Then, sir, have you ever seen that lancet?"

"I've never seen it. But according to them, the blade coincides with the fatal wound on Senior Xu Changtian's body, so it should be the murder weapon."

Wendi said happily: "Mr. Xi also said that he has never been to the scene of such a big event of the Huashan School, but only heard about it. Forgive the juniors for their ignorance, there are a few joints in it, and I really can't figure it out."

I'm afraid not many people in the room expected that Wen Di's opening of his mouth was a matter that had been rumored in private a few days ago, they were stunned for a while, and all their eyes were focused on Xi Lanyu, thinking that he would fly into a rage.

Unexpectedly, Xi Lanyu only narrowed her eyes in an unclear manner, and said, "Where can't you figure it out?"

After hearing the flute, he glanced at Zuo Nian, seeing that he had no intention of stopping him, he took a step forward and said, "Yu Qing, Sect Leader Zhao and Sect Leader Shang of your faction are brothers who were almost married to Jinlan, and they have a relationship with you, Senior." We have known each other for many years. Yu Li, the host of the symposium is Beichuan Xuemen, and Linzi is the location of this grand meeting. Why didn’t head Zhao go directly to Shangxue Palace when such a big incident happened, instead letting the disciples come to me? Lou denounces the real culprit?"

He talked in a twist and turn, and it seemed to others that he was just showing the interests of it, but Zhao Yang's face turned pale all of a sudden——for those who are interested, Wendi almost pointed at Xi Lanyu and said that Beichuan School The door connived at the Huashan faction's infighting and murder, and even asked the twelfth floor to take the place of the dead ghost!

Zhao Yang stood up abruptly, and said angrily, "Senior, you haven't spoken yet, so you are allowed to gossip here?!"

Wen Di sneered, but didn't look back: "What's the rush for Master Zhao? Mr. Xi didn't say a word, could it be that he didn't know the truth and was kept in the dark by you all the time? Senior Sister's sword is eager to plant her... Am I right?"

"presumptuous!"

Along with Zhao Yang's annoyed and angry voice, there was the sound of metal. Hearing the flute, he was not in a hurry, nor did he dodge. He only listened to the wind to argue his position. Clamp the blade.

"Fighting with others is a lot of fun. Only when Xu Changtian dies in the fight will your position be secure. As long as he doesn't die, you will always be on your back. It just so happened that Xu Changtian had a little verbal dispute with my master before. If I Master holds a grudge, and it seems to be acceptable... Am I right? Zhao, Zhang, and door." He finished speaking slowly, and seeing Zhao Yang's shocked expression, he smiled unusually gently, "My own idea, or Any advice from an expert?"

Hearing Di's words, the audience on and off the stage, which was originally quiet, suddenly became agitated. For a while, everyone was discussing, and Xi Lanyu's expression gradually turned cold:

"Brother Zhao, why didn't you tell me that your faction has troubled the twelfth floor?"

In a corner outside the meeting, Xie Xingzhou took off his bamboo hat and said to Liu Shiqi: "Did you hear that? Wendi's internal strength should be higher than mine, and it seems to be on par with Taoist Qingniu. He is so young, how can he meeting……"

Liu Shiqi didn't answer. With one hand, he flung himself out of a small window and mixed into the black crowd after a while.

Xie Xingzhou's gaze was fixed on someone who was observing in the dark like a falcon—it was the young man who was called the internal struggle of the Huashan faction just now.He looked at the stage for a moment, then turned around suddenly and left. Xie Xingzhou didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly followed, ignoring Liu Shiqi for the time being.

On the Mingde stage, swords were raging, Zhao Yang's sword was pinched by Wendi, and he couldn't pull it out for a while!

The head of a faction was completely suppressed by an unknown young man, Zhao Yang blushed with an old face, and just yelled indiscriminately: "You know a fart! Shut up! Shut up!"

Wen Di was obsessed with Xi Lanyu's sword, and deliberately let go of the strength in her hand.

Zhao Yang suddenly noticed that he thought it was because Wendi had relaxed, and he was overjoyed, and Jianfeng also sent it to the side.The next moment, he was surrounded by a coolness, Wendi's palm was pressed against his chest, Zhao Yang immediately dodged, and was almost injured by his own sword, so he dodged in embarrassment, just as he was about to call for a stop, Wendi suddenly said :

"Senior, do you want to compete with me? Then let's do a few tricks with senior!"

Zuo Nian next to him who was afraid of chaos in the world clapped his hands and smiled: "Adi, don't hit too hard, he is your elder, not to mention that the twelfth floor doesn't like to hold grudges!"

These words seemed to have opened up some kind of secret language between him and Zuo Nian. Hearing the flute, he said "yes" clearly, without stopping his hands, and his footwork became lighter and lighter.

He turned his palm into a fist, seemingly without strength, Zhao Yang clearly felt the coolness coming again, he hurriedly waved his sword to block, Wendi's other hand bypassed Zhao Yang's face at some point, and went straight He shoulders away—

Zhao Yang drew his hands back short, and swiped at Wendi's waist with his sword.

He fully thought that Wen Di's center of gravity was in front of him at this time, so that his whole body would definitely be out of balance, and he would regain control.Unexpectedly, when the sword edge brushed against the snow-white skirt, Wendi suddenly dropped his weight forward on his right foot, half of his body turned sideways into an incredible arc, and his whole body was like a fish, gliding past his sword edge with incomparable lightness.

Zhao Yang's eyes darkened, and he said in horror: "What kind of kung fu is this!"

At the moment when he was close to the shoulder bone, Wendi suddenly turned his fist into a finger, and hit Zhao Yangyang's large acupoint on Weimai, which made him unable to move half of his body immediately, and the long sword in his hand fell to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.

Wendi put it away when he saw it was good, stopped respectfully and cupped his hands and said: "Flower-folding hand, 'sparing shadows and slanting', offend."

As soon as those three words came out, a thousand layers of waves were stirred up. No one would have thought that after retiring to Xixiu Mountain on the twelfth floor and no longer setting foot in the Central Plains all year round, they would still be able to see the Flower Folding Hand in front of people.

In the camp on the twelfth floor, the shock was even worse. Song Miner suddenly stood up: "Why did you teach him?!"

The head of the sect was just an orphan picked up from the Central Plains on a whim, but he gritted his teeth and knelt on the fourth watch for half a year, and he has been lucky since then.Closed door disciples, senior brothers in charge, and no one will be held accountable for any mistakes they make... Even the flower-folding hand that was only handed down to the head of the twelfth floor in the past, has been learned by him, and others don't know it at all?

Why should he hear the flute!

No one noticed that Xi Lanyu's complexion on the stage darkened, he pressed the scabbard at his waist, and said loudly: "Flower folding hands are not common, Brother Zuo, when you and I competed, you only used a knife , but never gave me a chance to learn how to fold flowers. Now Xi wants to learn a few tricks from your little apprentice, isn't it too much?"

Zuo Nian smiled and said, "It's my bad luck to get brother Xi's face-to-face guidance."

Xi Lanyu snorted: "My friend Wendi, pay attention—"

The sun was shining, Jingming sword brought a piece of silver blade when it was unsheathed, Wendi was almost dazzled, he let out a light breath, and said to himself: "Success or failure depends on one move."

The so-called gentleman's swordsmanship lies in the four characters of Zhengya Dianfang. As soon as Xi Lanyu held a sword flower in his hand, people could already feel the different skills.Wen Di didn't dare to underestimate the enemy, so he took half a step back, shrank his whole body into a defensive position, and thought to himself mockingly: "I use a pair of fleshy palms to catch Jingming sword, I'm afraid this kind of treatment will never be repeated in the future."

After a short time, the Jingming sword was already coming like a broken bamboo. Xi Lanyu's movement was extremely fast, but she was not as nimble as listening to the wind steps. Of course one can clearly see his movement from the sidelines, but it is extremely difficult to imitate it. Disaster.

Wen Di took two moves, guessing that Sapphire probably didn't use all her strength, and then with a thought, she briefly withdrew the force from her hands.Xi Lanyu was not as reckless as Zhao Yang, he still tried every move, the two of them fought for nearly a hundred rounds in half a cup of tea, Wendi didn't show any signs of defeat, but felt that Xi Lanyu didn't really want to compete with him .

I can only cheat a sword.

Wen Di tilted his head and flashed the sword blade, turned around and looked at Zuo Nian. After the other party was sitting at the table, he looked towards this side with a smile, as if he felt that Wen Di did not embarrass him, and that the kung fu on the [-]th floor could also stand alone in the world Yes, with a hidden surprise.

At this moment, the Jingming sword suddenly changed direction with a "buzz", so sharp that it hardly resembled the dignified posture just now.Wen Di was suddenly swept by the sword energy, and a strand of hair on his forehead was instantly cut off. He hastily stepped back half a step, just now to stabilize his figure, and immediately Xi Lanyu made another sword strike——

"Young man, don't be too self-righteous in everything." Xi Lanyu suddenly whispered.

Wen Di didn't have time to digest the message, and was staggered by his sword. He supported on the ground for a while, and then bounced lightly, listening to the wind steps under his feet to the fullest.He frowned, and didn't go directly to catch the sword blade, but dodged his face, slapped Xi Lanyu's heart with his palm, and replied:

"Senior, it's not good to pretend to be confused."

Xi Lanyu snorted coldly, complex emotions flashed in his eyes, before Wen Di could tell what it was, he was forced to take a few steps back by the sword energy that was killing him in front of him - he instantly understood, At the beginning, it was all about probing, Xi Lanyu didn't intend to compete with him at all, she wanted to come to him for real!

In the blink of an eye, Wen Di couldn't tell whether he was excited or what, he raised his head abruptly, gathering his true energy in his dantian to protect his vitals.The next moment, Jing Mingjian cut through the autumn wind and went straight to the door, he faced Xi Lanyu and did not hide.

It seems that Xi Lanyu just wanted to teach him a lesson, but Wendi didn't expect that after realizing his intentions, he would simply not dodge or dodge. He was startled, and it would be too late to withdraw. Cut Wendi's clothes——

Zuo Nian suddenly stood up: "Brother Xi! Just click!"

But Xi Lanyu couldn't stop.

Wendi closed his eyes suddenly, he heard the sound of metal breaking through the air, but the expected pain did not come.

"Senior, it's just a discussion, you don't need to take people's lives, right?" A clear voice rang in his ears, Wen Di opened his eyes in disbelief, only to see a scabbard between himself and Jing Mingjian.

Xi Lanyu immediately withdrew her hand, turned to Zuo Nian and said, "I'm sorry Brother Zuo, I just lost control for a while, but fortunately this... this young hero made a timely move..."

The scabbard was withdrawn, and the young man on the sidelines had a pair of slightly round eyes. When he stared straight at Wendi, it always made people feel that he was innocent and affectionate, but the corners of his lips were indifferent, and there was no smile at all. is angry.Wen Di opened his mouth, unable to speak, his eyes became hot first.

Surrounded by silence, it took a long time to regain consciousness after hearing the flute, and whispered: "... Seventeen?"

Why do you want to get ahead?
