Chapter 21: Joke

In the restaurant, the short and fat man had already turned pale. Thinking that he had repeatedly disrespectful to the masters of Hengshan Sect, they were magnanimous and left alone. What if they encountered a bad situation after a while, what if they wanted to vent their anger on others? Even if they didn't take it seriously, the Hengshan Sect had a great family and a great career, if the Hengshan Sect knew about it, how could they let it go? Thinking of this, the short and fat man could no longer sit still and hurriedly left with his two companions. Others were afraid of getting angry, so they left one after another. In a huge restaurant, there were only a few people left in the Huashan Sect, with only a hunch sitting in the corner, and no one paid much attention.

Lu Dayou rushed to the table with seven broken tea cups and said in surprise: "This... this is really amazing!" Before the others could speak, the door curtain suddenly opened, and an old man and a ugly girl walked in. When Lu Dayou saw the old man, he was about to speak. When he saw the girl again, he laughed and said: "Little junior sister, you are getting more and more beautiful after three months." Everyone laughed when they saw Yue Lingshan's appearance, as if they agreed with Lu Dayou's words.

Yue Lingshan said, "Okay, you six monkeys. You haven't seen each other for a few months. I dare to bully me. Believe it or not, I will tell my elder brother to go..." Gao Genming interrupted, "It's not bad, I'm getting more and more help from my elder brother. Only the younger sister has the face to ask the elder brother to do something unreasonable." The elder brothers teased, and Laudeno frowned and said, "Stop messing around, are everyone here?"

Yue Lingshan said, "You are not good people, second senior brother, only you are good people." Lu Dayou smiled and said, "Yes, yes, we are not good people..." Seeing Lauderno's serious expression, he said, "Don't worry, brothers are all in Hengshan City, and the seventh junior brother was there just now, but later Master Mo appeared, and the seventh junior brother went after Master Mo."

Laudeno looked moved and asked, "Mr. Mo Da, the head of Hengshan?" Lu Da said, "That's right." Laudeno said, "Seventh Junior Brother has come out a few times, and he has already had a vast relationship." Several people asked in unison: "What?" Laudeno said, "When we met Master Dingyi of Hengshan yesterday, she also specifically asked about the eldest brother and the seventh junior brother... Hehe, I have followed my master around for so many years, but there are not so many elders in the world who respect me."

Lu Dayou asked, "By the way, why haven't the eldest brother arrived?"

Yue Lingshan said first: "The eldest brother is a drunkard. He met a beggar on the road. He fell in love with his good wine. He didn't even bother him and started drinking with him." Shi Daizi asked: "Is he a disciple of the Beggars' Sect?" Yue Lingshan shook his head: "No, it's just an ordinary beggar." As he spoke, he saw seven broken tea cups on the table, and exclaimed, "What's going on?"

Takano Akira said: "Just..."

Yue Lingshan interrupted him and said, "Don't say it, let me guess first." Yue Lingshan walked around the table for two steps and looked at the cup on the table. After a while, she was puzzled and said, "Why do I think this is like a sword technique with two ways..." Gao Genming clapped his hands and smiled, "You have such a vision. It's really hard for you to just look at it like this. Let me help you." As he said that, he picked out five of the more than ten broken porcelain circles on the table and placed them on five tea cups that were cut for the second time, and said, "Little Junior Sister, this is what the first person looks like after taking action."

Yue Lingshan immediately woke up, looked carefully for a while, and said slowly: "One sword is seven times, and it can cut gold and jade again. What kind of sword technique is this..." Suddenly, he said happily, "I know, this is the "one sword falls nine geese" in the thirty-six 'Huifeng Luoyan Sword' of Hengshan Sect. The one who took action was Liu Zhengfeng Liu of Hengshan Sect. Isn't it right?" Before Gao Genming could speak, Laudenno shook his head and said: "Mr. Liu's sword technique is probably not yet at this level. This is probably Mr. Mo Da's hand." Gao Genming smiled and Lu Dayou gave a thumbs up and said, "The second brother has good eyesight."

Yue Lingshan jumped forward, took away the porcelain circle that was put on, and said, "Who did this sword come out? Five tea cups were broken in this sword, but two left behind. Obviously, his skill is not as good as Master Mo. Which master of Hengshan Sect is another master..." Before she finished speaking, she shook her head again and said, "No, right, this sword is broken out and the broken mouth is different. Some are like arcs, while others are extremely flat. How can the same sword move produce so many strange things? Oh, I understand, this is what you made to fool us, right?" She said this answer, smiling and proud, obviously thinking that it was the reason. In a flash, everyone seemed to be smiling and had a very strange look. Only then did she realize that this was not the case.

Lu Dayou said, "Our brothers are not so boring, second brother. Come and guess." Lauderno glanced at him and said, "I can't see it either, but..." He thought for a while and said with some uncertainty, "Although I can't do martial arts, I still have some knowledge. Looking at the tea cup, it seems to be the traces of Huashan sword technique... Could it be that the master took action?"

Lu Dayou clapped his hands and said, "The second senior brother is still powerful, but if the master takes action, I'm afraid he won't be worse than Master Mo. Hehe, let me tell you that it was Master's disciple who took action."

Laudeno said in surprise: "Which junior brother actually has this ability? No, right? I have seen all your sword skills, and I'm afraid there is no such good cultivation." He shook his head while saying that, obviously he didn't believe it. Yue Lingshan said: "If it's the eldest brother, I still believe it, but the eldest brother may not have arrived in Hengyang City yet, so it's impossible for him."

Lu Dayou said: "He is a disciple of Huashan, but he is not among us, nor is he acquainted with swordsmanship. Guess who it is?"

There is no need to guess when he says this. Laudeno said in surprise: "Is it Junior Brother Seven? Take it seriously?" Gao Genming said unhappily: "What are you saying? Are we going to lie to you together? What's the point?" Laudeno smiled and said: "Don't blame me, don't blame me, I just knew that another master of this sect was released, and I couldn't believe it for a while."

Lu Da nodded a little and said, "That's true. When I first saw him breaking his sword, I never thought that he had such cultivation. I didn't expect that he had been on Siguo Cliff for a year, and his swordsmanship had reached this level. Hehe, if I had known this, I would have stayed at Siguo Cliff for a year. When I came down, wouldn't I become a master?!"

Shi Daizi smiled and said, "If you do something bad now, your master can also let you go to the cliff of thought."

Several people were joking, but Lauderno stared at the broken teacup with his eyes flashing, and suddenly said, "What kind of sword technique is the Seventh Brother using? Do you see it?"

The few people looked at each other and said, "I can't recognize it, but it's Huashan Sword Technique, but there is no doubt about it."

Gao Genming smiled and said, "Master has taught us this sword technique." Everyone turned their eyes to him. Gao Genming said, "You forgot that one day last winter, heavy snow fell, and Master was in great interest and taught us the unique skills of the Huashan School in the snow."

Everyone looked at me, and I looked at you, but they couldn't see what unique skills were. You should know that it was snowing in winter, and it was very common to learn swords in snowy days. Everyone didn't remember what sword technique Gao Genming was talking about. This was Su Yanyue's "Ah" and said, "It's that move of 'unfinished fallen wood'!"

Everyone suddenly realized that Lu Dayou said, "It's not bad, it's the trick of boundless fallen wood. It's just that Junior Brother Seven and Master are very different, and I didn't see it for a while."

Shi Daizi nodded and said, "Seventh Junior Brother was on the cliff of thought at that time. I think this sword master was just teaching and could not give more guidance. Therefore, he was not as good as the master. If he used this trick, how could there be two of these seven teacups left?!" All the disciples nodded and said yes.

Everyone talked happily. The hunch sitting in the corner was filled with hearts and said to himself: "The boy was two years younger than me, but his swordsmanship was so skilled. When his brothers said that, it seemed that his swordsmanship was still wrong. How high should his master's martial arts be? The Five Mountains Sword Sect was indeed a master. I used to sit in the well and watch the sky, thinking that the masters in the world were, but they were on the front line with my father, which was really ridiculous and pitiful!"

The noise of footsteps outside the door was remembered, and a thick female voice sounded: "Where is Linghu Chong, where is Linghu Chong? Come out for me!" Everyone was stunned. The curtain had been lifted open. Master Dingyi led a bunch of Hengshan girl nuns and rushed in angrily.

Tang Jinlou saw Mr. Mo gradually fading away, and turned around and walked in the other direction. At this time, he was already in a state of confusion and wanted to be alone.

There is a small river in Hengshan City, with weeping willows by the river and a small bridge in the south of the Yangtze River. It is so beautiful. Tang Jinlou walked alone to the bridge. At this time, the rain gradually became lighter, but there were still few pedestrians on the bridge. Strangely, there were an old woodcutter in his forties or fifties selling wood by the bridge. Tang Jinlou stood at the bridge, letting the rain fall on his body, staring at the distance, thinking about something.

The woodcutter looked at him for a long time and said, "Young man, I don't even bring a hat on a rainy day. It's not a blessing to get sick." Tang Jinlu said, "Thank you." After saying that, he still looked at the water quietly, not caring about the woodcutter's words at all.

The woodcutter laughed and said, "Young people don't like to listen to the old man. Do you think we have lived in vain for decades?" Tang Jinlou was surprised and turned his head and said solemnly: "I'm sorry, I don't wear a cloak, and I'm not afraid of getting wet from the rain." Since Zixia achieved some success, Tang Jinlou has been much more sensitive to his body. He knows that this level of rain cannot cause difficulties to him at all.

Tang Jinlou was afraid that the woodcutter would persuade him again, and said, "It's so heavy rain, why are you still selling firewood here?" The woodcutter smiled and said, "How come you don't have to work hard to make a living?" Tang Jinlou smiled slightly, and was about to give a compliment, but suddenly he frowned and said, "Old uncle, you pile the firewood on the ground. Although there is a cloth covering the rain, it will still be soaked below. Wouldn't this cause a lot of losses?"

The old woodcutter suddenly burst into laughter and said, "Let you see it, let me tell you, actually I am a person from the world who came to see Mr. Liu in Hengshan to wash his hands. Since you have seen it, I won't hide it from you."

"What did I see?" Tang Jinlou muttered in his heart and said, "So that's the case, I'm so vague. I dare to ask which genius of the old man is? I'll also give me some good advice." Tang Jinlou saw that the man turned yellow and his eyes were slightly turbid. If such a person had not reached the advanced level of internal skills, he would definitely not be familiar with martial arts. When Tang Jinlou asked, he unconsciously revealed his unbelievable emotions.

The woodcutter was about to speak, and suddenly a man in his forties or fifties, carrying a load of vegetables in front of him hurriedly. When he arrived at the bridge, he put the burden on his back and sat on the ground full of rain. He didn't think anything was wrong at all. He said to the old woodcutter: "Hey, unlucky, I've been walking in Hengshan City for a long time, but there was no vegetable sold."

The woodcutter smiled and said, "What's the matter? I've been doing it for so long, not only did I not sell it, but I also lost some firewood. You are better than me."

The man picking up vegetables said, "Next time I will never go out on rainy days. It seems that no one will come out to buy vegetables on rainy days."

The woodcutter said, "That's right. It should be said that no one will go out on rainy days. Look, we are not selling either." He said, "Fortunately, we are not here to sell vegetables, we are here to attend the Golden Basin Handwashing Ceremony." The man picking the vegetables said, "That's right, even if a vegetable is not sold, it's not a loss." Tang Jinlou looked at the two of them saying something as if they were not nutritious, but he gradually became suspicious in his heart. He believed that these two people were really people in the world. Generally, those who could be idiots in the world who deliberately pretended to be vegetables were probably only real idiots.

The old woodcutter suddenly said, "Didn't you bring an extra hat? I'll just give this little brother one. I saw that he stood on the bridge for a long time, but he was in the rain. Fortunately, he didn't have any idea of ​​suicide, which is gratifying." Tang Jinlou was so amused that he said, "Senior, I'm worried." The man carrying vegetables really brought two more hats on the load of the vegetable. He took one and threw it to Tang Jinlou. Tang Jinlou put it on his head and bowed, "Thank you, senior." The man carrying vegetables waved his hand and signaled not to use it.

Soon the rain gradually became lighter. Tang Jinlou took off his hat and handed it back to the man who picked up the vegetables. He then left after thanking him again. The woodcutter looked at him far away and suddenly said, "The internal strength is already quite basic, and he is considered an outstanding boy." The man who picked up the vegetables smiled and said, "This child is a road trip in Huashan. I have seen it in the city before. It is indeed very amazing. Why are you interested in him?" The woodcutter said, "I see that he is full of worries and thinks it is a trouble for some young people. Who knows that he is a free and easy person. He knows that he must have encountered something difficult, so he deliberately makes fun with him." The man who picked the vegetables shook his head and said, "He doesn't seem to understand the joke we told, which is really a pity." The woodcutter agreed deeply.

When Tang Jinlou met these two people, he no longer had the interest to wander around, but he didn't want to go back. He casually sat down in a tea shed by the roadside and listened to some anecdotes in the world who were storming rain. Some of them were quite familiar with Tang Jinlou, but those people said many exaggerated words. Tang Jinlou took it as a story, which was even more exciting.

In the evening, Tang Jinlou walked slowly towards Liu's mansion. The servants of Liu's mansion recognized Tang Jinlou and asked him to go in at will. A long distance from the hall was far away, and the noise in the house had already been heard. A girl's crying sound was sobbing, and the sound was crisp and beautiful. I wonder what grievances the girl suffered.

There were noises from the crowd in the room, and some people said, "So that's the case. Young Master Linghu is trying to save people." Some people said, "The Qingcheng Sect is too much. Linghu Chong was seriously injured, and they took advantage of the danger."...

Tang Jinlou brows moved, knowing that it was Linghu Chong who saved Yilin. At this time, only one person said, "The unique skills of Qingcheng School, 'butts are backward, flat sand and geese-like style', which is indeed amazing." A strong male voice said angrily: "Who is talking?" Before he finished speaking, he heard a "ah" sound in the house. Something was obviously an accident. Tang Jinlou smiled slightly and came to the door. There were many people guarding him outside. Tang Jinlou walked straight in, and they didn't care. Seeing that everyone was paying attention to the emergencies in the house, Tang Jinlou was also happy to sneak into the crowd to watch the fun.

A short Taoist in the crowd was furious and shouted loudly: "Who did it?" Although Tang Jinlou had never seen it, he also knew that this person must be Yu Canghai. One of them spoke in a Sichuan accent and said tremblingly: "Disciple is incompetent, I didn't see clearly." Yu Canghai cursed: "Waste."
