Biography of Xi Shan

Liu Muyan stood beside the ding-dong stream, staring at the cascading waterfall in a daze.

"What are you thinking?" Liu Musheng stretched out his hand to fiddle with the water, inadvertently wet his sleeves.

Liu Muyan said lightly: "I was thinking about Zhen'er, wondering whether it was because of me that he was under too much pressure. He was my first apprentice and the most talented one among my many disciples. He studied hard since he was a child. Wu has a stable personality, and it is justifiable to pass the position of head to him. Now that I think about it, everything started because of the martial arts conference. There are only a few ordinary martial arts wizards."

Liu Musheng wringed the water off his sleeves, flicked his sleeves and said, "People's hearts are complicated, and what I say now is an afterthought, but I think it's true, you became the head of the Xishan School at the age of 20, and he is 20 years old." It is far inferior to your day, and even inferior to many fledgling boys in the rivers and lakes."

"I often teach them that the most important thing in martial arts training is to strengthen the body, not to compete against each other. The martial arts of our Xishan School pay attention to step-by-step, and to make something out of nothing. He studied hard, and when he reaches my age, why would he not be able to be famous, and why he chose to take a shortcut."

"That's what you said wrong." Liu Musheng said, "This Jianghu is an unpredictable place, honest people have never been successful, look at the martial arts masters in the Jianghu today, who is not crazy and weird? "

Liu Muyan smiled wryly: "Heretics."

Liu Musheng sighed, and said leisurely: "Once you enter the rivers and lakes, you can't help yourself." He changed the subject and said abruptly: "You care so much about your apprentice, Mu Yan, tell me honestly, did you give birth secretly? The child is hiding in the Xishan School?"

Liu Muyan laughed loudly: "You can talk nonsense, but my Liu Muyan's child is not shady, so why hide it?"

Liu Musheng murmured: "It's a pity, it's a pity."

The two talked far away, and after chatting for a while, they heard Jing Ji shouting in the forest: "Master, where are you? Xiao Jing is here to find you."

"Here." Liu Muyan called out.

Jing Ji ran over following the sound, and said with a smile, "My mother has cooked the food, let me call you to eat."

"Your mother?" Liu Muyan was startled, and grabbed Jing Ji's arm violently.

Jing Ji suddenly said: "Master, I forgot to tell you, Mrs. Wu is my mother, and my mother cured me of the Gu before."

Liu Musheng said: "This is interesting, he is Chu Nantian's daughter and Wu Mang's apprentice?"

Jing Ji said: "It was Senior Wu who saved my mother, and my mother was able to save her life."

"Your mother's matter has nothing to do with me, but Wu Mang still owes me Yaoxiangu's life, I don't know where he is now?" Liu Musheng smiled slightly.

Jing Ji twitched his lips and said, "My mother told me that Senior Wu is dead. Uncle, you can't hurt my mother by putting on a hat and wearing a hat."

Liu Musheng said: "Since he's dead, it's over 40 years ago. It was my father's order to hunt down Wu Mang."

"It's been more than 40 years. Senior Wu has such a deep hatred with the old valley owner." Jing Ji's eyes widened in surprise.

Liu Musheng smiled and said: "It's just a trivial matter, but we people in Yaoxian Valley have always held grudges. There is a roster in the valley. Anyone who is on the roster must die, otherwise we will hunt him down for generations until they are young." Life is not guaranteed, there are still many people on this list, I will show you some other day."

Jing Ji said in a nasty voice, "No need, thank you Uncle." After he finished speaking, he turned his head and saw Liu Muyan looking at him with a worried expression, his eyes were sad and lonely.

"Master, what's wrong with you?"

Liu Muyan said: "No wonder you want to leave Wei Shi's side, it turns out that Chen Daozhen and your mother are here, so naturally I, the master, can only stand aside."

"No, Master, Jing Er likes Master the most." Jing Ji hurriedly cheered him up, and stepped forward to pull his sleeve.

Liu Muyan said: "Then stay in the Xishan School and don't go anywhere."

"Master, haven't we all agreed?" Jing Ji was a little anxious, and afraid of offending Liu Muyan, his voice was so low that he could hardly hear him when he spoke.

Liu Muyan stroked his hair, and said softly: "You can take your mother to live in Xishan. If Chen Daozhen is willing, as a teacher, don't make things difficult for him, and let him in too."

"Ah?" Jing Ji opened his eyes wide and scratched his head in distress.

"Jing'er, you should carefully consider the proposal of being a teacher." Liu Muyan said, "Let's eat first, don't keep your mother waiting for a long time."

"Oh." Jing Ji followed behind him in a daze, his mind was in chaos.

Liu Musheng scolded in a low voice: "It's full of bad water."

Liu Muyan smiled and walked away.

When Lu Zhen woke up, he was still dripping water, and the clothes behind him were wet and stuck to the bed, which made him very uncomfortable.

Shang Hua sat on the window sill, holding the edge of the wine jar with his hand, and poured the wine into his mouth with a splash of his hand, and the dripping wine stains wet his collar.

Shang Hua wiped his mouth, threw the wine jar on the ground, and said coolly, "You're awake."

Lu Zhen's face was terribly gloomy, and when he opened his mouth, his stomach churned, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"You'd better lie down and don't move. Your Majesty's internal energy is extremely deep, and you won't be able to bear it for a while." Shang Hua took out a bottle of medicine from his arms and threw it to him, "But you can't rest for too long. Mu Yan is not here, we must rush to the Xishan School immediately."

Lu Zhen could feel a strong internal force filling his internal organs, and that internal force was melting into his body little by little, protecting his extraordinary meridians, but at the same time he could also feel that this internal force was too fierce , within a few months, I will definitely be turned back by it.

Lu Zhen calmed down and said, "How long can I live?"

Shang Hua glanced at him and sneered.

"why are you laughing?"

"The reason why the "Strange Star Manual" will cause the meridians of the people who practice it to be broken and explode is because the origin of the martial arts we practice is different, and the body cannot integrate various internal forces that restrain each other. Only by absorbing stronger Only internal force can temporarily suppress them, just like drinking poison to quench thirst, and finally the body can't bear it and explodes and dies." Shang Hua laughed, "Although you haven't practiced the "Superiful Star Manual", the essence is the same, and your lord can't overcome it." The transformed internal force is equally intricate when it reaches your body, but everyone in the world has got one thing wrong."

Lu Zhen clenched her fists and stared at him.

Shang Huadao: ""The Sutra of the Stars" is not without a cure. You can escape a catastrophe by abolishing your martial arts in the early stage of cultivation. Your lord's internal strength is not as good as before. If you are willing to abolish your martial arts, maybe It can also save my life." Shang Hua showed a sarcastic smile.

Lu Zhen closed her eyes, smiled wryly, and said, "I understand what you mean, but everyone in the martial arts world is racking their brains for the highest martial arts, and would rather explode and die as a short-lived ghost than a mediocre life. "

"Your Majesty has held on to this breath until today just to wait for an opportunity. Even if he is sent to hell to be a lonely ghost, his ghost will linger on, so that those so-called decent families can't sleep at night." Shang Hua sneered. , "If you die, you will die. Is it possible that you still have to live in poverty and find a good family, a woman, a man who farms and a woman weaves, and die in depression?"

Lu Zhen was silent for a long time, and asked, "What's your plan?"

Shang Hua lowered his head and showed a triumphant smile, and said slowly: "Of course I can't do without you in my plan."

Liu Musheng administered acupuncture to Zhou Ce every day. After a few days, Zhou Ce's condition finally improved. Sometimes he could lean on the bed and talk to Jing Ji, but he fell asleep tired after talking too much.

Liu Musheng vowed that Zhou Ce would gradually get better through recuperation, so Liu Muyan and Jing Ji felt relieved and could only take care of Zhou Ce at ease.

This day, Zhou Ce's spirit obviously improved. He leaned on the head of the bed and looked out through the gap in the window, and he could catch a glimpse of the green scenery in the courtyard.

The room was filled with the bitter smell of herbs, mingled with the smell of grass that wafted in through the cracks in the windows.

Jing Ji sat by the bed, holding a jar of candied fruit and stuffing them into his mouth one by one.

Zhou Ce laughed: "At any rate, you should be scruples about me as a patient."

Jing Ji said vaguely: "Then get well soon and eat with me."

Zhou Ce smiled and said nothing, and asked instead, "How is the child these two days?"

"Senior brother Chen found a nanny for him. He has been eating for nothing these past few days, and he can snore vigorously when he falls asleep."

Zhou Ce smiled and rolled his eyes, "That's all right."

"I'll bring him to see you when you recover from your illness." Jing Ji said while packing up the jar of candied fruit, "Your own child should be raised by yourself. Master already knows the whole story. He said he doesn't blame you. These things It has nothing to do with the children, when you feel better, he will personally take you to Su's house to plead guilty."

Zhou Ce's eyes were red, his expression was forbearance and embarrassment, and he said: "I made a mistake, how can I let Master suffer for me."

"Don't think too much, rest well, Master is here, I need to find him." Jing Ji said solemnly, and then twisted the corner of the quilt for him.

Zhou Ce was amused by him, "How old are you, and you still talk so shamelessly."

Jing Ji laughed and teased him again, which caused Zhou Ce to cough, so he stopped quickly, but finally Zhou Ce's mood improved.

The drunkard smashed a glass in a distressed manner.

Chen Daozhen raised his head and looked at him quietly.

The drunkard hurriedly sat upright and said, "Miss, I missed."

"If you have anything to say, just say it." Chen Daozhen pursed his lips, and closed the account book on the table.

The drunkard pondered for a while, then hesitated and said: "Master, the head of the Xishan School and the owner of the Yaoxian Valley are here with us now, if they cooperate with outsiders, we will have no way out."

Chen Daozhen said lightly: "If this is the case, I know it well, so you don't have to worry."

The drunkard head suddenly had an idea, and he was enlightened and said: "Master, it's a coincidence that Brother Jing's mother is here, and Liu Muyan is also here now, why don't you take this opportunity to make a kiss, so that You don't have to worry about Liu Muyan's plotting in the dark." The drunkard's eyes lit up when he was excited, and his hands trembled.

Chen Daozhen frowned impatiently, and anxious emotions appeared between his handsome brows, he said coldly: "Stop this matter, don't mention it again in the future, talk nonsense all day long, if you provoke Jing'er again Not happy, I peeled off your skin."

"Master, I'm doing this for your own good. After all, there is a difference between good and evil. How can I not drag Brother Jing into the water..." The drunkard complained in a low voice.

Chen Daozhen said: "As soon as Pei Ran comes back, you can follow him to Zishan to teach, lest you just have nothing to do all day long and only grow flesh but not brains."

"I'm not going." The drunkard poked his head and said, "I'm already a step behind him in seniority, if I owe him more favors, will I, an old drunkard, be able to hold my head up in front of him in the future?"

Chen Daozhen said indifferently: "It's up to you, anyway, you will be in a wheelchair all your life, and you can keep your head up when talking to him."

The drunkard's arrogance weakened, and he reluctantly said: "Just go, I'll see what he can do, don't lose his life in the hands of Duan Hongxue."
