I am aging gracefully in the world of famous books

In the busy schedule, time always flies by quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it is the day when Yin Liuxia will pay his respects and get married.

On this day, apart from the long-lost Five Hero Zhang Cuishan, the other six second-generation disciples of the Wudang Seven Heroes gathered in the main hall of Zixiao Palace, all of them were in high spirits and beaming with joy.

The head Zhang Sanfeng also left the place of retreat and enlightenment, and appeared in front of everyone in a new robe.As soon as this ninety-year-old martial arts master appeared, he attracted the curiosity and attention of all parties, and the leaders of Shaolin and other great sects stepped forward to say hello.

Pei Xiang had already met this humble and accessible Daoist Zhang on the second day after arriving in Wudang Mountain, and discussed with him for a long time the way of Chongxu and Harmony in Daoist scriptures, solving several doubts in martial arts practice .

Moreover, under Zhang Sanfeng's instruction, Pei Xiang has a little more understanding of the martial arts principles of yin and yang mutual assistance and mutual generation and restraint.At a certain moment, the true energy of Beiming in her body fluctuated slightly, and became more obedient and pure after surging continuously.

Pei Xiang thanked Zhang Sanfeng for his guidance, and Zhang Sanfeng also lamented her understanding and aptitude, and was a little curious about how high such a young man could reach in the future.

In the few days after that, Pei Xiang told Zhang Sanfeng about the glorious history of the Lecturer's Xiaoyao School and the only remaining part of the inheritance, which made Zhang Sanfeng sigh.

Zhang Sanfeng felt comprehensible, and started to chat, playing chess while talking to Pei Xiang about his youthful experience, and even mentioned Guo Xiang, the founder of Emei, in a tone full of melancholy and open-mindedness.

The old and the young chatted on the back mountain of Wudang, and sometimes made gestures. Most of them were Zhang Sanfeng studying and analyzing the principles of Beiming Shengong for Pei Xiang. Occasionally, Pei Xiang showed Zhang Sanfeng her swordsmanship and sword intent.

She never explained why she could comprehend such a majestic and pure sword intent at such a young age, she only thought that she was born with extraordinary talent.Zhang Sanfeng didn't ask too deeply, at his age, he had already seen through many things in a bearish way.

On the second day after going up the mountain, Pei Xiang and Zhang Sanfeng got together, drinking tea, playing chess and discussing martial arts every day, so leisurely and comfortable.But Yu Lianzhou has to be busy with all kinds of chores within the sect, handling human relations, and rarely has leisure time during the day.

Therefore, everyone in Wudang didn't see Yu Lianzhou's excitement after all.

Now that the auspicious time has come, Yin Liting in a red robe led the bride into the wedding hall.After the couple worshiped heaven and earth, they knelt down and worshiped their master Zhang Sanfeng together. Afterwards, the husband and wife made obeisance, entered the bridal chamber, and drank together wine.

Pei Xiang watched the ceremony while eating dried fruit. At the moment when the ceremony was completed, she saw the joyful and happy smile on the face of the groom Yin Liting, and something quietly settled in her heart.

In her previous life, when she was young, she loved to read these soul-stirring stories of Jianghu. At that time, she preferred the heroic and courageous Wudang Seven Heroes.

Later, as she grew older, she read, watched, and experienced many twists and turns of the story, thinking that she had already forgotten the original feelings.She never thought that those emotions were just quietly hidden. Now that she witnessed Yin Liting's change of life direction, she suddenly felt a little more touched and relieved.

After drinking a glass of toast from the groom's official, Pei Xiang found an excuse to quietly leave the lively banquet, and after a few ups and downs, she disappeared into the verdant mountains.

——Some sword skills need to be mastered.

Late at night, Pei Xiang returned to his residence and found a food box and a jug of wine at the door.

She opened the food box and saw that there were three layers of puff pastry and cold cooked food that didn't need to be eaten while it was hot, as well as a few sweet and juicy fresh fruits.Apparently, the delivery person wasn't sure when she'd be back, and prepared these ready-to-eat meals to her liking.

——In Wudang, the only person who knows my taste is Yu Lianzhou.

Before entering the house, Pei Xiang looked in the direction of Yu Lianzhou's residence, with a warm smile flashing across his eyes.

But Yu Lianzhou was not at the residence at this time, he was talking with his master Zhang Sanfeng.

"Lianzhou, since you have learned Hu Xiaoyou's unique art of dunjia, then teach her the lightness skill Ti Yunzong. I think Hu Xiaoyou is still a little behind in body skills, and Wudang's Ti Yunzong should be able to do it. Let Hu Xiaoyou get some inspiration, and learn from each other's strengths to perfect his lightness footwork."

Yu Lianzhou bowed to promise, and then fell silent.

Zhang Sanfeng glanced at the mature and prudent second apprentice with a smile, and asked in a humorous tone:

"It is said that you are very talkative now, and you can talk from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. I thought you had changed your temper, why do you look like a gourd now?"

"Master..." Yu Lianzhou was a little embarrassed, "These juniors are messing around, why are you following along? The reason why I talked to Miss Hu more is because, because it's her first time to Wudang Mountain..."

Under Zhang Sanfeng's transparent eyes with a smile, Yu Lianzhou gradually couldn't continue speaking.

"Lianzhou, Lao Qi said that you haven't discovered your heart yet, but from the teacher's point of view, you have already realized that you are tempted. If this is the case, why pretend to be unaware? If you miss such a wonderful person as Hu Xiaoyou, That would be such a pity."

"The apprentice hasn't figured it out yet?"

"When you think it over, it might be too late." Zhang Sanfeng sighed, and deliberately provoked Yu Lianzhou, "Could it be that you think Hu Xiaoyou is too powerful and damages your manly dignity, so you are reluctant to go further? "

Yu Lianzhou shook her head quickly: "Master, how could this disciple be jealous of talents? If Miss Hu is so good, I will be happy for her. This is definitely not adulterated. It's just...that Miss Hu is so good, and this disciple knows that she is not good enough for her." .”

"Then you just gave up? Don't reveal anything, just make friends with Hu Xiaoyou? Will you drink a glass of wedding wine with Hu Xiaoyou and others in the future?"

Yu Lianzhou was silent for a moment, but finally she was not willing to nod and admit giving up.

After a while, he said in a dumb voice: "Master, this disciple is not an indecisive person, but this... is the first time that this disciple has encountered such a situation, and he is always a little hesitant. I am worried that if I speak out rashly, I will appear to be rude and rude to Miss Hu. ...I am even more afraid that I will become a stranger."

Zhang Sanfeng stroked his beard, suddenly said:

"After all, you are afraid that Xiaoyou Hu will reject you and alienate you after knowing your intentions. But Lianzhou, you have always been shrewd and sensitive, can't you see that Xiaoyou Hu does not reject your intentions?"

"Not repulsive?" Yu Lianzhou froze for a moment, various complex emotions flashed in his eyes, sometimes happy and sometimes worrying.

Zhang Sanfeng did not miss the change in the expression of the second apprentice, and a gentle smile flashed in his eyes.

In the past few days, Pei Xiang has brought up various memories. The past when he was young is as colorful as a dream, as ethereal as a cloud of smoke.Some people's faces have been blurred, and some people's frowns and smiles are still vivid.

Coupled with the fact that he drank the wedding wine of the six disciples today, Zhang Sanfeng felt touched for a while, so he couldn't help but mention a few words to Yu Lianzhou.

——Lian Zhou is lucky, the girl he likes happens to have the same thoughts, so why hesitate and waste more time?

——In this world, it is rare to have a lover.

——When you meet, it is the fate of the right time, place and people, don't miss it...

Yu Lianzhou wanted to ask more questions, but Zhang Sanfeng waved his sleeves and said nothing more.

That's all he can do.For the rest, Yu Lianzhou had to think and make his own decisions.That layer of window paper is so fragile, do you want him, an old man in his 90s, to help him pierce it?

——Let's chase after your sweetheart by yourself, the old Taoist has been lonely and unrestrained all his life.

Seeing that her master didn't want to say much, Yu Lianzhou said goodbye politely, and then quietly exited Zhang Sanfeng's room.

After Yu Lianzhou left, Zhang Sanfeng took out a pair of iron arhats from his sleeves, stared at them for a moment, and then put away the pair of iron arhats who never left his body.This is a gift from Guo Xiang to him, it has been so many years in a flash.

At the same time, Yu Lianzhou, who left, did not return to the room to rest immediately. He deliberately took a detour and watched Pei Xiang's residence from a distance.

He noticed that there was faint candlelight in the window of the small courtyard, and the food box in front of the door was also taken away, so he knew that Pei Xiang had returned from practicing sword in the mountains, and he was probably about to go to bed at this moment.

After confirming that Pei Xiang was fine, Yu Lianzhou felt at ease, and suddenly became interested in taking a walk under the moon.

Stopping and walking, he recalled many things about himself and Pei Xiang.It has been almost three years since we met in Miaojiang and now we return to Wudang together. During this time, we get together less and leave more, and we parted several times in a hurry, but we have three months of alone time that have never been spoken to outsiders, and we have many tacit secrets. ...

Yu Lianzhou stopped slowly, and he suddenly realized that during the past few days when he was aware of his intentions, he had been worrying about being alienated and rejected, worrying about age, appearance, talent, martial arts and other conditions that did not match, but he ignored the most important thing. One of the most important things is whether the sweetheart has already noticed his love thoughts?

—she is so smart...

A heart in his chest was beating wildly, extremely active, but Yu Lianzhou's figure was extremely stiff, like a wood carving.

——Although I just realized that I was tempted, some friendships have already been formed.

——I have done many things that I would not normally do, and said many things that I would not normally say. That girl is clever and cunning, how could she not have noticed my strangeness?

——However, she never stopped me from approaching.According to her personality, if, if she didn't like her, she should have alienated me long ago.

Thinking about it, Yu Lianzhou was completely immersed in a kind of great joy. He suddenly felt joy falling from the sky, and suddenly felt doubts and disbelief. Occasionally, he seriously questioned whether his memory was accurate, whether it was because of too much thinking. delusional...

When Zhang Songxi came back from his night patrol, he was taken aback by Yu Lianzhou who was standing on the side of the road like a wooden stake.After recognizing this person as his second brother, he secretly felt guilty, thinking that Yu Lianzhou was waiting here to settle accounts with him.

"Second brother?"

Yu Lianzhou didn't respond, she was still recalling every moment when her sweetheart acquiesced in his approach.

"Second brother?"

Yu Lianzhou couldn't help smiling. It turned out that she had been waiting for him to speak since such an early age.

Seeing Yu Lianzhou ignoring him, Zhang Songxi's expression was so rich and changeable, and he pondered slightly in his heart, he had some understanding.He suppressed his smile, planning to run away before Yu Lianzhou could react.

However, as soon as Zhang Sixia, the majestic Wudang, lifted his foot, someone pinned his shoulder.

Immediately afterwards, Yu Lianzhou's cold voice came from Zhang Songxi's ear:

"Fourth brother, since we met by chance in the middle of the night, let's accompany Brother Wei to have a drink at the bar. Then we will talk to Brother Wei, what are we brothers and sisters doing lately without telling me?"

Zhang Songxi: "..."

—I shouldn't be here, I should go down the mountain overnight.

In the early morning of the second day, Pei Xiang had finished practicing a set of sword techniques and was just about to have breakfast when he received a message from Fei Ge.

This flying pigeon has been specially trained to only recognize certain medicinal fragrances, so no matter where Pei Xiang is, the pigeon can accurately find her location.

After seeing the color of the small bamboo tube tied to the pigeon's leg, Pei Xiang couldn't help frowning slightly.

She quickly took off the bamboo tube and took out the note inside.

"Grandma Jinhua and Mr. Yinye went to Butterfly Valley, and the monks from the Western Regions and that dumb Ku Toutuo also went?"

The few words in the note reminded Pei Xiang of many things at once.

She always remembered the cause of Hu Qingniu's and his wife's death in the original novel, it was because he refused and could not treat Mr. Yinye Han Qianye, which led to Han Qianye's death from poisoning, and was hated by Dai Qisi, the golden flower mother-in-law.

Many years later, the Butterfly Valley doctor and immortal couple died at the hands of the golden flower mother-in-law.

Therefore, when she learned that Hu Qingniu and his wife had settled in Butterfly Valley, she asked someone to pay attention to the people from the rivers and lakes on the only way outside Butterfly Valley.If you find a medical seeker similar to the Jinhua and Yinye couples, you must send a letter to her by flying pigeons.

Now, the people she arranged in advance not only saw the Jinhua and Yinye couples, but also found the traces of the western monks and Ku Toutuo, which was somewhat beyond Pei Xiang's expectations.

However, after thinking about the plot of the original story and the current reality, she took it for granted.

——The dumb Ku Toutuo was pretending to be Fan Yao, the bright right envoy of Mingjiao. He had met him in the Sichuan and Shu areas before, and had no direct contact with him.

——But he suddenly appeared near the Butterfly Valley in Wandi, following behind the Jinhua and Yinye couples.

——Is it for personal enmity with Han Qianye and Dai Qisi?Or for old friend Yang Xiao?

Pei Xiang calculated the distance and time, and immediately got up to pack his luggage.

When Yu Lianzhou came over, she saw Pei Xiang sorting out the medicine box.

"What happened?"

"Some accident happened to my elder brother, Brother Yu, I have to hurry to Butterfly Valley."

Yu Lianzhou didn't ask for details, and immediately turned around and went out, raising her voice to order the young disciples to prepare green horses and dry food.

"Miss Hu, if I go with you, I can take care of you."

Pei Xiang nodded and accepted Yu Lianzhou's kindness.

While waiting for Yu Lianzhou to pack her bags, she quickly wrote two notes, sealed them with wax, and tied them to the pigeon's legs again.

"Little guy, when you have had enough rest, fly back to find your master, thank you for your hard work."

While talking, she fed half a special pill to the pigeon to ensure that the pigeon could follow the special fragrance of the medicine and return to the place of departure.

After a while, Yu Lianzhou also packed up.The two said a brief farewell to everyone in Wudang, and without wasting time, they went down the mountain together with Qinggong.

The two of them galloped all the way, changing water routes on the way, traveling day and night, and when they arrived near Butterfly Valley, Granny Jinhua and Mr. Yinye hadn't left yet.

At this time, Hu Qingniu didn't have so many rules of "don't save him if he dies". In addition, Mr. Yinye Han Qianye's poison was really weird, which aroused Hu Qingniu's interest, and he left the couple in Butterfly Valley , Prepare to study the method of detoxification.

However, Ku Toutuo, who followed the two, was unwilling to Hu Qingniu to treat Han Qianye, and he needed Hu Qingniu to detoxify another person, so he harassed Butterfly Valley frequently, trying to catch Hu Qingniu and take him away.

When Pei Xiang and Yu Lianzhou arrived, Dai Qisi, the former Mingjiao Zishan Dragon King and now the golden flower mother-in-law, was wrestling with Ku Toutuo. Her martial arts were obviously inferior.But Wang Nangu and Hu Qingniu are fighting against the enemy together, struggling with two other powerful Western Region monks.

Anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that the people in Butterfly Valley have already fallen into a disadvantage, and it is only a matter of time before they are caught and injured...
