Longhu Villa extends to the east for more than ten miles. There is a patch of rocky hills. Flowers are in bloom, grass is luxuriant, trees are shady all around, birds are chirping, bees and butterflies are flying around, and even several graveyards look like they are either rich or not. Expensive and extraordinary.
An old man came strolling from north to south with a big wine gourd hanging on his waist. Looking carefully, the long gray beard on the slightly longer face was fluttering in the wind. With bright eyes, he could clearly see the ants crawling in the grass. He could hear the earthworms groaning in the soil bag.
Perhaps he was tired from walking, so he saw two large flat stones in front of a graveyard. He happily walked over, sat down, drank a sip or two of wine, and enjoyed watching the swaying flowers and plants, and the bees and butterflies. Listening to the singing of birds, my face is full of childlike innocence.
The elder put his legs on the rocks and was about to lie down and take a nap, but his sensitive ears seemed to sense movement in the grass to the east. After a closer look, two fat gray hares shrank and jumped over. Seeing the moist and tender grass, they chewed together slowly.
The elder touched his belly and found that it was dented inward. With an instigation in his heart, he unconsciously picked up two small stones and threw them towards the hare. He just wanted to try his luck, but he never thought that he could actually hit the hare. hit them.
Rabbits have extremely sensitive hearing. When they hear the rushing wind and sense danger, they jump up and try to escape. Unexpectedly, the small stones flew too fast and hit them mercilessly, turning them into two unlucky ones in an instant.
When the elder saw this, his eyes were slightly closed, his hands were clasped together, and he bowed slightly to the two dead rabbits. He walked over and picked them up, cut their fur, lit a bonfire, and barbecued the rabbit meat. As the fire continued to heat up, the rabbit meat was slowly cooked, and the aroma spread for miles. Even the weeds on the grave were happy to smell it, and the things kept swaying.
Good food really can’t be kept to yourself. The elder had just torn off a rabbit leg and was about to take a bite when three people came from the northwest. They were Zhang Tianhao's family.
The three of them were walking on the roadside of the rocky hillside and stopped because Xiao Ruoyun noticed that Zhang Tianhao's steps were a little slow and the clothes on his shoulders were a little wet, as if blood was seeping from the wound inside.
Zhang Yan'er glanced at the sky to the west and said warmly: "Mom, Dad, it's still early. Why don't you take a rest here before going on your way."
Seeing the concern on his wife and daughter's faces, Zhang Tianhao followed their kindness and sat down on a medium-sized stone on the side of the road.
Xiao Ruoyun put down the baggage and helped Zhang Tianhao uncover his clothes. When he saw blood oozing from the wound, he asked softly: "Does it hurt?"
Zhang Tianhao smiled slightly and said: "Compared to when I killed seven heroes with one sword, I feel very comfortable."
Zhang Yan'er heard this and smiled. She took out a small bottle of golden sore medicine from the opened bag and handed it to her mother. She also prepared a clean gauze in her hand and stood aside.
Xiao Ruoyun gently took off the gauze that had been bandaged on Zhang Tianhao's shoulder, applied the powder to the wound, took the gauze from her daughter's hand, carefully re-bandaged the wound, helped Zhang Tianhao tidy up his clothes, and sat aside.
Zhang Yan'er packed her baggage and sat next to Zhang Tianhao. Seeing her father's injured shoulder shaking slightly, she asked in a low voice: "Dad, you taught half of the swordsmanship of the second uncle, why did he get injured today?" ?”
Zhang Tianhao smiled slightly and replied: "You silly boy, if you want to avoid getting hurt, you have to keep fighting. Why can't you defeat your master's three fathers? Besides, your father is not necessarily your master's son." opponent."
Xiao Ruoyun said angrily: "Even if you deliberately seek defeat, there is no need to let him get stabbed!"
Zhang Tianhao smiled and replied: "There are so many pairs of eyes looking at you, and they are all experts. If you don't break a little bit of flesh, even if you can easily get away with it, people won't appreciate it."
Zhang Yaner said: "Dad, is Zhu Rongfeng really the man in black robe with silver threads who ambushed Uncle Jiang?"
Zhang Tianhao replied: "Probably not. Zhu Rongfeng and Brother Jiang have known each other for many years, and they are mostly friends. They fought against each other many times during his lifetime. The power of the Fire Cloud Divine Palm is extremely masculine, and the palm technique is also unique. It is impossible for Brother Jiang not to recognize him."
Zhang Yan'er then asked: "How come Hu Qing, the apprentice of the second uncle, insists that Zhu Rongfeng is the man in black robe?"
Xiao Ruoyun answered: "Your senior brother Hu Qing has always been outspoken. Maybe he saw Zhu Rongfeng being rude to your senior and he said it randomly in a hurry."
Zhang Yan'er smiled and said, "That's right. I also wanted to step forward and teach that old man Zhu Rongfeng a lesson, but I just wish I didn't have the ability."
Zhang Tianhao said warmly: "Yan'er, you are a daughter-in-law. The first priority is to take care of your husband and raise your children. You should learn to be gentle, kind and virtuous. Don't pay attention to such nonsense in the future."
Zhang Yan'er licked her lips and said, "Dad, how can this be ridiculous! The man in the black robe with silver threads is so insidious. He has a poisonous needle hidden in the palm of his hand, and he is also coated with Baizhang Qing's poison. Why don't we find him? After he comes out, I don’t know how many knights and knights in the world will follow his path and be poisoned by him."
Zhang Tianhao glanced at his daughter and felt that the child was unteachable. He was too lazy to pay more attention and said to his wife Xiao Ruoyun: "Ruoyun, you should have less contact with Longhu Villa in the future."
Xiao Ruoyun whispered back: "Longhu Villa is my master's sect, how can I just break it off?"
Zhang Tianhao sighed and said apologetically: "I got involved with Qin Haoming's group of evil people. They should be afraid of avoiding you. You should have less contact with me in the future."
Zhang Yan'er was startled and lost her voice: "Dad, wouldn't you be in danger in the future?"
Xiao Ruoyun saw her daughter startled and scolded: "You kid, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Zhang Yaner said: "Mom, decent people regard father as an enemy, and Danyangzi's group regard father as a traitor. If father can't please both sides, is there any danger?"
The elder listened to the conversation between the three of them, smelled the rabbit leg, and found it delicious. He shouted to Zhang Tianhao, "What are you mumbling over there? It's so noisy that I even lose my appetite for meat."
When Zhang Tianhao heard it, he felt that the voice was somewhat familiar. He turned his head and saw a plume of smoke rising from the cemetery five feet away, and walked over with his wife and daughter.
When the elder saw the three people arriving, he smiled and said, "Sit down, I can eat these two fat rabbits by myself."
Zhang Tianhao had seen the elder's smile, saluted and said hello: "I have met senior Gu Huai." He immediately asked his wife and daughter to salute as well.
Gu Huai said with a smile: "Sit down and rest your stomach first, lest you don't have the strength to greet those evil ghosts and snake gods later and lose the face of the old man in Wuxia." He picked up a rabbit and handed it to Xiao Ruoyun, then pulled out a rabbit. He handed the leg to Zhang Tianhao and passed the wine gourd along the way.
Zhang Tianhao was not polite, took two sips from the wine gourd, and began to bite the rabbit legs.
Seeing that Xiao Ruoyun and her daughter were a little shy, Gu Huai smiled and said, "Why are you watching? Eat!"
Xiao Ruoyun heard about it and saw that her husband was enjoying the food, so she also pulled off two rabbit legs, gave the front legs to her daughter, and ate the hind legs.
The four of them had just wiped out the two rabbits when the trees a hundred feet away shook, and several black shadows flashed towards them.
Zhang Tianhao hurriedly stood up to prepare for the battle and said to his wife: "Ruoyun, take your daughter and leave first."
Xiao Ruoyun stood up and said bitterly: "I've come here, but I can still go there!"
Before Xiao Ruoyun's words could dissipate, eight black shadows stopped three feet away from the four people. A black shadow took two steps forward and said loudly: "Zhang Tianhao, if you don't keep your promise and betray Baihutang, you should die!"
Zhang Tianhao said: "You broke your promise first, hurting my wife and daughter twice and three times, and even killed one of my apprentices. For those of you who break your promises and kill innocent people indiscriminately, keeping your promises is obviously superfluous."
The black shadow said coldly: "The master doesn't know about the two monsters of Yinshan Mountain. It's just their lust."
Zhang Tianhao said: "Then why are you going to the restaurant to cause trouble for my wife and daughter?"
Another black shadow took two steps forward and shouted, "What nonsense are you talking to him about?" The sword was unsheathed.
When the other men in black saw him, they unsheathed their swords and attacked him.
"Ruoyun, you go first." Zhang Tianhao glanced at his wife and daughter, pulled out his sword, and charged towards the eight black figures, fighting each other.
Seeing that Xiao Ruoyun and her daughter were trying to escape, the leading black shadow shouted: "Stop the mother and daughter and eradicate them."
Two black shadows moved out of the battle circle and jumped over, blocking the path of Xiao Ruoyun and her daughter.
Seeing the man in black's strong skills, Xiao Ruoyun felt overwhelmed and said, "Yanyan, you go first." She turned back and glanced at her husband in the battle circle, pulled out his sword, and started fighting with the two black figures.
Is Zhang Yan'er afraid of death? She drew her sword and helped her mother. The courage is commendable, but the skill is inferior, and the result will definitely be unsatisfactory. With one move, the sword was knocked away, and he was kicked in the abdomen, causing him to fall to the ground.
Unable to focus on two things, Xiao Ruoyun saw her daughter being kicked away. She was distracted, had her sleeve cut off, was kicked in the abdomen, and lay down with her daughter.
The black shadow jumped up and stabbed Xiao Ruoyun's mother and daughter with a sword in the air, intending to take their lives.
Zhang Tianhao, who was three feet away, saw this and used the previous move of "Flow to hit the water" and the next move of "Shocking Waves to Break the Shore" to quickly repel the six men in black, turned around and jumped to save his wife and daughter.
How can you be distracted at will when masters compete with each other?
The leading man in black seized the opportunity and shot out two palms in the air, hitting Zhang Tianhao on the back.
Zhang Tianhao fell to the ground and struggled to get up. He wanted to help his wife block the flying sword of the man in black, but he was only one or two feet away and there was no time.
Gu Huai saw that Zhang Tianhao was moving slowly and had no time to save Xiao Ruoyun and his daughter, so he had to walk over quickly, clamped Heiying's sword with both hands, pulled it to the right, and hit Heiying's chest with one palm. The shadow flew ten feet away, with blood pouring from his mouth. He twisted twice and passed out.
The man in black behind Zhang Tianhao saw Zhang Tianhao's chaotic steps and took the opportunity to stab him in the back.
Gu Huai saw that Zhang Tianhao did not notice because he was concerned about the safety of his wife and daughter, so he had no choice but to strike at the man in black. I thought to myself that even if Zhang Tianhao was hit by a sword, he wouldn't be completely heartbroken.
Seeing the wind coming from Gu Huai's palm, the man in black jumped back ten feet to protect himself. Zhang Tianhao walked out of the gate of hell.
The mother and daughter got up, ran towards Zhang Tianhao, and supported him. Seeing the bloodshot corners of Zhang Tianhao's mouth, they felt heartbroken and squeezed out a few fragile tears unconsciously.
The two black figures who rushed to help the leading man in black saw that Gu Huai had injured one of their companions and were already enemies. They couldn't care about Gu Huai's background, so they stabbed at Gu Huai's chest with two swords.
Gu Huai pretended not to see it, and just when the sword blade was about two inches from his chest, he raised his hands as fast as lightning, held the blades of the two swords with his thumb and index finger respectively, pulled them apart left and right, sent out two palms, and slapped the two swords. There is a black shadow on the chest, and the palm force is extremely strong.
Two black shadows were struck in the palm of the chest and flew out, like two frightened geese, landing in the air, twisting their bodies randomly on the ground, half getting up, and falling to the ground, lifeless.
When the leading black figure saw this, he looked at Gu Huai and said sternly: "Old man, why are you meddling in other people's business?"
Gu Huai heard the voice and sneered: "Yu Hualong, you have been a famous knight for a long time. Now you are wearing a black cloth. You are not afraid of insulting the Qingyi of Dian Cang Sect for hundreds of years."
The leading shadow was startled. Seeing that Gu Huai recognized him, he had nothing to hide. He shouted loudly: "Gu Huai, are you in charge of this matter?"
Gu Huai replied: "If you talk nonsense, I will take care of it, so what else can't be taken care of?"
"Okay, let's see the real seal in your hand." Yu Hualong sneered, and with a move of his hand, he led the other four black shadows and rushed towards Gu Huai with swords.
Gu Huai reached out with his right hand to his waist, and a silver snake flashed out from his waist. He rushed forward and fought with five black snakes.
The sky is not blue, the fields are not vast, the wind blows on the sleeves and silver light is seen, six figures are fighting each other, the sword light and the Taoist people are chilling.
Gu Huaixing saw that the five black shadows were not weak. If they were to fight hard, there would be times when their physical strength would be exhausted. In order to achieve a quick victory, he worked hard and transformed into a python, wandering among the five black shadows. Seizing the opportunity, he drew three silver lights and gave them to the man in black.
The three black figures relied on the large number of people and only attacked but did not defend. They had no time to dodge. One was hit by a sword in the neck, another was hit by a sword in the chest, and the third was hit by a sword when he stepped down. They were all fatal injuries. They fell to the ground instantly, calmed down, and left shyly. .
"Gu Huai, don't play harp, tomorrow is your death day."
Yu Hualong's right arm was cut open by the 'Silver Snake'. He thought to himself that he and his remaining companion were no match for Gu Huai, so he quickly withdrew from the battle circle, leaving a few words to escape.
It's really hard to speak harshly, so he scares others and flees first.
Gu Huai heard this, smiled coldly, and did not pursue him. He took out a handkerchief, wiped the blood on the silver snake, and inserted it into the scabbard. Walking to the tombstone, he picked up the wine gourd on the ground, dusted it off, walked to Zhang Tianhao, and handed the wine bottle to him. After Zhang Tianhao took a few sips, he asked for the jug back and said sternly: "You boy, remember from now on that even if you die, you will not bow to these scorpion-hearted people." After saying this, he held the jug and headed toward the southeast. Go.
Zhang Tianhao watched Gu Huai's back and said warmly: "Senior, where are you going?"
Gu Huai turned around, glanced at the setting sun, smiled faintly, and replied: "I heard that Jiang Chengcheng's descendant has appeared again, causing chaos in the world. Let's see if you have the ability to kill him with a sword and help Jiang Clarify that old boy and clean up the house, which can be regarded as returning a favor to him."
Seeing Gu Huai go away, Xiao Ruoyun looked at the sun in the western sky and saw that it was getting late. He and his daughter supported Zhang Tianhao and walked toward the southeast step by step, just to settle down before dark.
