Zhang Yan'er followed Bai Yutian to two huts and looked around inside and out.
The two huts are about the same size, with the windows opening on the north side, facing the door frame on the south side. There was a room near the vegetable garden on the east side, with a stove, a small dining table, two stools and chairs, and a pile of dry wood arranged neatly. One room is near the flower meadow to the west. There is a wooden bed, a bamboo chair, a desk, two bamboo chairs, and two large wooden boxes on shelves.
Master Mingzhi took off his bamboo hat and raincoat, hung it outside the door, walked into the bedroom, put down his books, put away the fishing rod, took the bamboo chair from Bai Yutian's hand, sat down at the door, and said, "What's the matter? Just say it, I'm not in the mood to ramble on with you."
Zhang Yaner came over and said with a smile: "Senior, we would like to ask you to go out to stretch your muscles and teach the bad guys a lesson."
Master Mingzhi moved his eyebrows and said, "Little girl, do you know what a good person is and what a bad person is?"
Bai Yutian smiled and replied: "Senior, in my heart, those who hurt innocent people for their own selfishness are bad people. Those who act according to their ability and relieve others' difficulties are good people."
Master Mingzhi smiled contemptuously and said: "Do you think that those who do good deeds regardless of their own safety are not considered good people?"
Bai Yutian replied: "Choose two ends of the pole. One is good for outsiders, and the other is good for family members. If either end is light, you will lose sight of the other. Those who work hard to achieve others and despise their family members can be called heroes, not He’s a really good guy.”
It was the first time for Master Mingzhi to hear such nonsense, and he felt a little strange. He took a good look at Bai Yutian's whole body. When he saw that there was nothing he couldn't see, he stood up, took away the stool, stepped out of the way, and whispered: "Outside It’s raining, come in and sit.”
Zhang Yan'er put away the paper umbrella, waited for Bai Yutian to take off his raincoat, then walked in, found a stool for Bai Yutian to sit on, and stood aside.
Master Mingzhi just picked up the teapot from the desk, put it back, walked to the couch and lay down.
Zhang Yan'er was smart and well-behaved. She stood up and walked to the desk, poured three cups of tea, picked up one cup and handed it to Master Mingzhi respectfully.
Master Mingzhi took it, took a few sips, and said, "Are there any bad people there?"
Bai Yutian took the tea from Zhang Yan'er, quickly drank his thirst, moistened his throat, and replied: "An evil organization, I don't know what it does, and I don't know where it is hiding."
Master Mingzhi sat upright, drank the tea in one breath, put down the teacup, lay back, and said: "You don't even know what it does or where it is, and you still have to fight it, so you won't be afraid of your tongue slipping and breaking. Waist bar?"
Bai Yutian smiled and replied: "If you have bold words, you are not afraid of flashing your tongue; if you want to punish evil and promote good, you are not afraid of bending your waist. Those who were assassinated by that organization were all knights and heroes. Killing people and killing whole families is too evil and should not exist in the world." "
Master Mingzhi saw that Bai Yutian was upright and worthy of respect. He sat up straight and said, "Do you have any suspicions about that organization?"
Bai Yutian said: "I only know that Qin Haoming, an abandoned disciple of the Chunyang Sect, is a member of that organization. They may attack the Longwei Escort Bureau. I don't know anything else."
Master Mingzhi said: "His background is not small, even Qin Haoming is willing to sacrifice his life for him."
Bai Yutian said: "Junior please ask senior to come out and help eliminate that evil organization."
Master Mingzhi glanced at Bai Yutian and saw that what he said seemed to be true, so he refused and said: "There are so many evil organizations in the world, big and small, and they appear in endlessly. Can you even destroy them?" All that was killed were human lives.”
Bai Yutian said: "But this organization is too evil. Once you join, if you want to quit, you will have to pay with your life. Master Miaoyi, Old Man Zhu, and Zhao Minghao competed with me in Hujiazhuang. They fulfilled their promises and retired to the mountains, but they just walked out of Hujiazhuang. , and was killed on the way home."
Master Mingzhi heard this, was quiet for a moment, seemed to remember something, and said it out: "Thirty-four years ago, I met a man in black by the Luo River who was seriously injured and dying. Although he wanted to help, he He was too seriously injured and could not be cured by human beings. Later, he asked me where he lived and if I could take the road, I could send his ashes back to his hometown and pray for him to return to his roots. Unexpectedly, he not only refused to tell me, but also asked me not to ask any more questions, and just pretended that he had never asked me about it. I’ve seen him before.”
Zhang Yan'er was very surprised and said: "Senior, it's incredible that such bizarre things happen."
Bai Yutian said: "Senior must have helped him open up his heart and asked where he lives."
However, Master Mingzhi sighed: "It's easier said than done. It's easy to say bad things, but he just pretended that he didn't hear it and kept silent. Until the time of his death, he was extremely proud of keeping the secret."
Bai Yutian said: "Mr. Li, what do you mean, is it possible that the man in black joined the current organization?"
Master Mingzhi said: "It's possible. Master Miaoyi, Old Man Bamboo, has been famous in the world for decades. Even such a person can only join and cannot quit. The organization must be deeply rooted and huge."
Bai Yutian was a little confused and said: "Since this evil organization existed thirty years ago, why did it only surface now?"
Master Mingzhi took a deep breath and said, "Ask me, and I'll ask who went there. After I buried the man, out of curiosity, I asked around, but I didn't find any clues."
Zhang Yaner said: "It is said that the passing geese leave a message. This organization is so secretive, it is terrible."
Master Mingzhi asked: "I don't know if it's scary or not. But you only have one life, so you have to think carefully about whether you should be an enemy of it."
Bai Yutian stood up and said loudly: "Senior, this organization is too evil. If it cannot be uprooted, it will cause endless harm, and the martial arts world will never have peace."
Master Mingzhi saw that Bai Yutian had the spirit of looking forward to death. Although he applauded in his heart, he said: "It is a good thing for young people to have the heart to eliminate evil and promote good. However, if you trust yourself too much and do not know your own capabilities, you will not only hurt yourself, but also harm others. It’s not beautiful.”
Bai Yutian said: "In the face of evil, in order to uphold justice, if you have the strength, you should shine the same light. Even if you don't overestimate your own capabilities, it doesn't matter if you touch an egg against a stone."
Master Mingzhi smiled lightly, stood up, and said: "There is mutual exchange, and only when there is gain can there be gain."
When Bai Yutian heard this, he was extremely happy. He stood up, bowed slightly to Master Mingzhi, and said: "Senior, feel free to speak, I will do whatever I can to my junior." He thought to himself, if there is a price to pay, then just Some discussions are for good reasons.
Master Mingzhi walked to the door and said: "I heard that the ancestor of Chunyang Clan, Master Chunyang, has reached the state of martial arts. He can step on the snow without leaving a trace, and dance with a sword on the snow without leaving any footprints. The spring is bright and there is no snow. As a Chunyang The heir to the palm must have some skills, so just dance on the lake and sing a song to me. If you can satisfy me, we can discuss the matter of helping you in the long run."
After hearing this, Zhang Yan'er was very upset and said loudly: "Senior, if you don't want to come out to help, just say it clearly. There is no need to be so difficult. Walking on the snow without leaving a trace and dancing on the water are things that only gods can do. Brother Bai is a mortal, If you ask me to do this, wouldn't it be too difficult for others?"
Master Mingzhi laughed and said: "If he is not a god, and he is an enemy of such evil, he will bring about his own destruction. If he wants me to die with him, wouldn't I die unjustly?"
Bai Yutian walked out of the door, looked at the lake, turned around, and said: "Senior, a gentleman has said what he said, and it is difficult for a horse to chase it."
Master Mingzhi smiled and replied: "You are a god and I am a believer, so I will answer your requests."
"Okay!" Bai Yutian took off the mahogany sword from his waist and walked towards the Suma Lake outside the door.
When Master Mingzhi saw this, he sneered and followed behind, forgetting that it was raining outside.
Zhang Yan'er held a paper umbrella and followed closely, her mind went blank, as if she were sitting on a cloud.
The two of them came to the lake. Master Akechi took a good look around Lake Suma and said: "Sume, one of the twenty-eight constellations, let her be a witness for you today to see if the immortals in the world are like you. appearance."
Bai Yutian Taomu took out the sheath and handed the hilt of the sword to Zhang Yan'er who was walking over. He lifted his feet off the ground and moved on the water, heading towards the lake.
When Zhang Yaner saw this, she quickly rubbed her eyes, thinking that she was dazzled.
Two feet away from the lake shore, Bai Yutian turned around, Bagua was born at his feet, and he danced with his sword. The body moves with the heart, the sword swims with it, moving in the wind, dancing gracefully, and the song ripples with the lake water.
"I help the master practice, and the master drinks tea with me. In spring, I play with chickens and dogs with wooden swords, and in autumn, I talk about mulberry and hemp with meat palms. In summer, I practice Sanfu with the singing of birds, and in winter, I practice Sanjiu with the setting sun. I use my left hand to tease grass, and my right hand to pick up flowers. The light skills at my feet are like flying swallows. I am full of righteousness and come to the world. The eight extraordinary meridians pierce the sky. One sword turns the sea into mulberry fields. Confucianism teaches me to be able to pick it up. Buddhism tells me I should let it go. Taoism tells me to be open-minded and understand what is not possible. Divination. Drawing the Eight Diagrams with your hands, heaven and man seek unity; stepping on the Nine Palaces, Taoism is lost to nature. What is nature? No one knows what is right or wrong without knowing right and wrong!"
While listening to the song, Yan'er watched the silhouettes of people and swords above and below the water, and forgot to use a paper umbrella to protect Master Mingzhi from the rain.
Bai Yutian drew a circle with his left hand, and stabbed the mahogany wood forward with his right hand, exposing half of his face with the sword. Take half a step back with your right foot, turn the sword tip to the right, flick your wrist, and draw a semicircle on the hilt. Stepping forward with the left foot, the peach tree turns into a swimming dragon, cutting off the raindrops. Pushing on the water with the soles of his feet, he leaped into the air, spun his body, and asked the sky with a sword. The flying crane has bright wings and hangs upside down like a golden hook. The peach wood pierces the lake water, but no waves can be seen. The soles of the feet are stepping on the water, people are floating on the water, the shadow of the sword penetrates the rain curtain, and the breeze blows the sleeves of the robe.
There are green mountains in front and two gates, and mountains and rivers in the back with strange peaks. There is a summit on top, and there is a panoramic view of the mountains below. On the left, there are clouds growing in the chest, and on the right, there is yin and yang cutting off the dusk. The white jade sky body is like a flying swallow, the sword is like a willow branch, the wind and rain are miserable, and it moves with the wind, just like a picture of mist and rain.
When Master Zhizhi saw this, he couldn't help but feel pity in his heart and said: "Okay."
All the energy in the white jade sky was unified. A few dragonflies touched the water and jumped onto the lake shore. They were sweating profusely but their breath was even.
Zhang Yaner presented a handkerchief, Bai Yutian took it, wiped off the sweat, and said with a smile: "Senior, are you satisfied?"
Master Akechi touched the water droplets on his forehead, smiled slightly, and said: "Since the bearded woman has testified, I passed the test in a so-so way."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yan'er quickly used a paper umbrella to cover the raindrops on Master Mingzhi's head, and said happily: "Senior, is Brother Bai considered half a god?"
"Immortals can live forever. Ask him if you can." Master Mingzhi put his hands back and walked towards the hut.
Zhang Yaner smiled and said: "Brother Bai, Senior Li is angry."
Bai Yutian said: "How do you know?"
Yan'er replied with a smile: "He is familiar with Confucian classics, comprehends Buddhist scriptures, understands Taoist scriptures, combines the three religions into one, and has been looking up at the great road of heaven and earth for decades, but he still can't come and go freely. You, a young man, can't do anything. I don’t understand, but I can float on the water, so I won’t be angry.”
Bai Yutian smiled lightly and said: "He has learned too many things. He feels good about them all, but he can't let go of any of them. His body is getting heavier and heavier, and naturally he can't float. I have learned few things, and I don't know what is Good, I don’t know what is bad, my body and mind are getting lighter and lighter, I can take advantage of the wind and float naturally." After saying that, he walked towards the hut.
Yan'er smiled brightly: "It's true that the ignorant have nothing to fear. They look forward to becoming gods without anything, and they are as airy as immortals." Followed closely.
