By the time Xie Xun thanked Hu Yuan again and again, and Zhang Cuishan and Yin Susu congratulated Xie Xun, the venison that had long been forgotten and roasted on the fire had become burnt.
Finally, Yin Susu's swordsmanship was not weak, and she used great force to slice off the dark outer layer with skill and precision, revealing the cooked meat that had been roasted and oozing with grease underneath.
With her sword moving like the wind, she cut off the venison piece by piece and put them on a large wooden plate.
At the same time, Zhang Cuishan folded the silk book in his hand again, picked up the "Dragon Slaying Knife" that was broken into two pieces, and sent them to Xie Xun together.
However, Xie Xun smiled bitterly and waved his hand: "The reason why Xie took this sword by force was that he mistakenly believed that this sword really contained a power that was respected by the martial arts. Now I realize that it was a big joke. Just now, Taoist Master Hu Yun said that he wanted to I will give the sword and sword skills to the future son of your husband and wife, and Xie will also be a favor and give the sword and the book of war to that lucky boy."
Zhang Cuishan knew that this Xie Shiwang was eloquent and had a weird and stubborn temper. He had already accepted a gift from Taoist Hu Yuan. If he refused his gift, he would probably think that he looked down on him. At that time, he could only replace his The still missing son thanked Xie Xun profusely.
Yin Susu curled her lips and said, "Senior Xie was really just a favor, and he completely forgot that this sword was snatched from a young girl!"
She had recovered from Xie Xun's illness, and with Hu Yuan as her big backer, she was not afraid of Xie Xun's anger, so she returned to her unforgiving and cunning nature when speaking.
Xie Xun was not annoyed and laughed and said: "Girl Su, speaking of Xie's close acquaintance with your father Yin Baimei, it was indeed unreasonable to snatch things from you. Anyway, this sword and the book of war can be regarded as returned to their original owners. Come on. If you really give birth to a son, Xie will pass on this skill to him as a gift, what do you think?"
Yin Susu was overjoyed and hurriedly came forward to thank her: "This little girl has thanked the senior on behalf of the child. But since the senior is willing to pass on his skills to the child, how should the seniority between the two of you be calculated?"
A sad look suddenly appeared on Xie Xun's face, and his voice became a little deeper: "Your man's master is Zhang Zhenren, the best in the world. This child will naturally belong to the Wudang sect in the future. If you husband and wife don't mind, you can let me This child calls me 'adopted father'."
Zhang Cuishan said hurriedly: "Senior Xie, since he is considered a brother to his family, and then he accepts our child as his adopted son, does this mess up the seniority and violate the etiquette and law?"
Xie Xun suddenly showed a bit of madness again and shouted angrily: "Everything about seniority and etiquette is bullshit! Not only does Xie want to adopt your son as his adopted son, but he also wants to marry you and your wife as Jinlan brothers, so as to save you, a pedantic scholar, from talking about seniors. The juniors are annoying!”
After that, regardless of whether Zhang Cuishan agreed or not, he grabbed his wrist and came to the stone table. He also called Yin Susu with a beaming face to come to his side. He poured three bowls of wine based on the memory of hearing the voice just now and forced one bowl to him. Zhang Cuishan and Yin Susu each took a bowl, turned around and came to Hu Huan together, and said with a smile:
"Others are sworn to worship God, but Xie Xun is most displeased with the thief, and admires the Taoist priest so much. Therefore, I ask the Taoist priest to bear witness. After drinking this bowl of wine, I, Xie Xun, Zhang Cuishan, and Yin Susu They are brothers with different surnames, sharing life and death!"
Hu Long said with a smile: "I am extremely honored to be able to witness the sworn marriage of three people to Jinlan!"
"Thank you, Taoist Priest!"
After saying this, Xie Xun raised his head and drank the wine in the bowl.
Yin Susu followed suit and drank the bowl of strong wine, showing no less arrogance than a man.
Seeing that the deal was done, Zhang Cuishan could only drink with a wry smile. While pouring wine, he sighed in his heart: "It's just a matter of course. If I can return to China and meet my father-in-law, I really can't care about this generation... …”
After drinking, Zhang Cuishan and Yin Susu saluted Xie Xun and called him "big brother".
Hu Long invited everyone to sit down again and drink together with the chopped venison.
After three rounds of exchanging glasses of wine, Yin Susu said to Hu Yuan and Xie Xun with some expectation: "Taoist Priest, eldest brother, between the two of you, do we still have hope of returning to China in this life?"
Xie Xun first replied: "Fifth sister, don't worry. The wind direction on the sea has always changed despite the seasons. After I have carefully observed it for a few years and grasped the pattern of wind direction changes, I will be somewhat confident in sending you and your wife back to China."
Hu Yuan said: "There are many trees on this island. Pindao has some experience in shipbuilding. He can try to build a ship that is good enough for navigation."
Zhang Cuishan and Yin Susu were both overjoyed. They felt that the "thief god" cursed by their elder brother finally had some conscience. Although he abandoned them on this desert island, he arranged for two knowledgeable seniors, Hu Yuan and Xie Xun, to be by their side. Take care of.
Everyone's topic turned back to the "Wu Mu's Suicide Note". After Hu Long drank a bowl of wine, he smiled at the three of them and said: "Today I saw the "Wu Mu's Suicide Note" left by Guo Daxia, which made me wonder. One thing happened.
"As the saying goes, 'You can't conquer the world immediately, but you can't rule it immediately.' Yuanmeng did the opposite. Since taking over the Central Plains, he used violence to bring prosperity and treated the Han people like ants and grass. Some people even proposed to kill all the Han people. , destroying farmland for Mongolian people to graze.
"Although the poor Taoist couldn't stand it in the past, he just wanted to be alone. Later he decided to go on a long trip to the sea, also with the idea of out of sight and out of mind. Now I finally realize that such an approach is too selfish. As a Taoist monk, if In prosperous times, one can live freely in the mountains and cultivate morality, but in troubled times, one should carry a sword and enter the world to help the common people.
"This heart has been made clear, and there will be no repentance. Within a few years, the poor Taoist must return to the Middle Kingdom, and fight Yuanmeng with the sword in his hand and what he has learned in his heart. He vows to sweep away the Huchen in peace and return a life to the Han people. The world is bright and clear!"
These words made Zhang Cuishan's blood boil. He stood up, bowed deeply to Hu Long, and said seriously: "If the Taoist priest has the ambition to rebel against the Yuan Dynasty and prosper the Han Dynasty, Cuishan is willing to join Ji Wei!"
Xie Xun sighed: "Speaking of which, our Ming sect has been aiming to fight against the Yuan Dynasty in recent years. There have been numerous uprisings in various sects, which once almost shook the foundation of the Yuan and Meng dynasties. It is a pity that since the leader of Yang Dingtian disappeared mysteriously, some leaders in the sect have Fighting for the position of leader caused the sect to fall into pieces and never regain its former might.
"Although Mr. Xie has been away from the Holy Cult for a long time due to a private matter, he still leaves a few brothers who can rely on his life in the religion. Since the Taoist priest has an aspiration to rebel against the Yuan Dynasty, Mr. Xie can write a letter to let them Pull out a group of men and horses and go to the Taoist leader to wait for orders."
Of course, what Hu Long had in mind was more than that, but he didn't say much at the time. He just smiled and said: "We are still overseas at the moment, and it is too early to say this. Come, let's finish the joy of today by finishing the wine in the cup." !”
Everyone immediately drank together.
When the wine was full, Zhang Cuishan, an elegant scholar, also showed a bit of madness. He banged the half of the "Dragon Sword" in his hand and sang loudly. The song he sang was "Congratulations to the Bridegroom" by Xin Jiaxuan of the Southern Song Dynasty, which was sad and generous.
When singing the last few lines, the song became more and more passionate, and the lyrics said: "Ask Qu Nong: After all, China, how many separations and separations? No one cared about the sweat, blood, and salt, and collected the bones of the horse thousands of miles away. The road to the river is cut off. I pity Jun Zhongxiaowu the most, saying, 'A man's heart is as strong as iron until death'. Let's see how you can mend the cracks in the sky!"
