[Yitian colleagues] Qu Zhongren

Kunlun is located thousands of miles away from the far west of the Central Plains. It is said that it is the ancestor of Wanshan, and there is the Queen Mother of Yaochi.It has been nearly 600 years since Mingjiao moved the main altar here in the Tang Dynasty.

The chaotic clouds are low in the evening, and the snow dances back to the wind.In a small town dozens of miles away from the Three Sacred Peaks of Kunlun, many people gathered around a ragged man with long beard and long hair in the open space next to the inn, applauding loudly.Next to the man was a little monkey with a red robe and a paper crown. It bowed and saluted to the audience with a shy belly, and then took over the monkey's wooden stick and danced. There is a faint set of Shaolin stick techniques, and when the trick is played, everyone around the audience applauds. Gradually, someone throws a bounty. When the little monkey sees the bounty, he quickly throws the stick back to the monkey player, and is about to hit the monkey player. face, everyone immediately roared with laughter.The little monkey bowed to thank him while picking up the reward money.

Everyone was watching happily, when a few men and women came out from the inn, they stretched out their hands and pushed away the crowd of onlookers, shouting in a rough voice: "Monkey trickers, go away! We are here to receive masters from the six major factions, no noise is allowed, they all dispersed," said a woman. "Junior Brother Su, you think this monkey is so interesting, how about buying it for your young lady to relieve boredom?" Junior Brother Su looked at the little monkey and the monkey-player, clapped his hands and said, "Okay!" Throwing down ten copper coins, he said to the monkey-player humanely. He said: "Old man, take the money and go away, you are not allowed to come here again." He stretched out his hand to hold the little monkey.When the little monkey saw a stranger coming to lead it, it showed its fangs and claws, biting and scratching.Junior Brother Su didn't notice it for a while, three bloodstains were caught on his arm, he was furious, he drew his sword and slashed straight down, actually wanting to cut the little monkey in half alive.As the shining long sword approached, the little monkey jumped on the monkey man's shoulder in a panic and squeaked loudly.The monkey-player hastily hugged the monkey in his arms, bowed to everyone and said, "Everyone, heroes and heroines, let's go now, let's go now, villain."

Junior Brother Su raised his sword to block it, and said: "If I take my money, this beast has to do with me. Want to leave? It's not that easy!" He raised his sword and stabbed at the monkey again.The monkey player hurriedly picked up the copper coins on the ground, handed them to Junior Brother Su with both hands, and smiled apologetically, "I will return the hero's belongings. This monkey has been with me for five years, and I rely on it to beg for food. Please be merciful to the hero. "Junior Brother Su stretched out his hand to push the monkey man, and wanted to grab the little monkey.Before the fall was over, Junior Brother Su suddenly went numb all over and fell to the ground.

Seeing that he suddenly fell to the ground, the woman who spoke in front thought that he had been seriously injured, and said in surprise: "Xi Zhi, what's wrong with you?" looked at her.The woman was even more amazed, she drew her sword and said, "Where is the evildoer, who is attacking people in my Kunlun land! Brothers and sisters, let's go together!" All the disciples of Kunlun responded in unison, drew their swords out of their sheaths, and pointed at the monkey-player.

The numbness in Su Xizhi's hands and feet dissipated in just a moment, and he stood up and said, "Senior Sister Zhan Chun, I'm fine." Seeing that he was fine, Zhan Chun was filled with joy and joy, and almost burst into tears, and said, "It's this beggar who plotted against him." Yours?" Su Xizhi said: "I don't know why, but I fell down when I touched him, maybe he has some kind of anesthetic on his body to protect him." Zhan Chun looked at the monkey tricker carefully, and said: "Could it be that he is a beggar Help the disciples?" Su Xizhi said: "Whoever he is, if you stab a few holes in his body with a sword, you won't be able to use any tricks." Zhan Chun hesitated: "I'm afraid it's not good. The six major sects Gather here, if the news gets out, it will greatly damage Kunlun's reputation." Su Xizhi said: "These fools and villagers, who will believe what they say?" With a straightened sword, he stabbed at the monkey man.Although the monkey was wild, it loyally protected its master. Seeing that its master was being threatened, it bared its teeth and rushed towards Su Xizhi.Su Xizhi grasped eagerly with both hands, but the monkey was flexible and had sharp claws and teeth. Every time he grasped, he missed, and the monkey scratched thin bloodstains on his face.All the Kunlun disciples exclaimed in unison, holding their long swords, they wanted to come forward to help, but they were afraid of accidentally hurting their fellow disciples. When they realized that they wanted to catch the monkey tricker and force him to restrain the monkey, he had already taken advantage of the chaos and fled.

At night, a black shadow sneaked into the inn, carefully avoiding the guards everywhere, listening carefully in every room, as if looking for something.Passing by a place, he heard the sound of conversation coming from inside, he stopped immediately, hid in the dark and held his breath.

A middle-aged and elegant voice said: "Wu Dang heroes are here, how dare He lie to deceive each other? My Kunlun disciples have witnessed this with their own eyes. The son of Zhang Wuxia from your sect was captured by the demon leader Yang Xiao, and he could not bear the humiliation. Jumping off the deep valley and committing suicide, my wife and I forced the big devil back, and it was too late when we went down the cliff to look for Mr. Zhang. If you don't believe me, you can ask our disciples to come and ask." Another man's voice said: "Yang Xiao is a villain! You have harmed Xiaofu and Wuji. If you don't avenge this revenge, I, Yin Liting, will be in vain." After speaking, his voice gradually choked up, and several men beside him comforted him: "We must deal with this matter." Ask the Demon Sect for repayment, Sixth Brother, don't be sad." Suddenly a cold female voice sounded: "The Demon Sect has done a lot of evil, raped [rape], raped, plundered, and plundered, and has no conscience. Catch them all!" Although this person is a woman, her arrogance is not inferior to that of an ordinary man, and the rest of the people echoed in unison. .

The black shadow outside the door was shocked, and his breath was in a mess for a while.The people in the room are all the top martial arts masters in today's world, they suddenly sensed someone outside the door, they raised their weapons and rushed out.The black shadow quickly retreated, but how could it be the enemy of everyone?Seeing that he was about to be overtaken, a long rope flew out from outside, and wrapped around the shadow's waist without a sound, wrapping him out of the wall.Everyone's eyes blurred, and when they looked carefully, they had lost the trace of the enemy.At this moment, all the people in the room were standing in the courtyard, under the cold moonlight, their faces were clearly illuminated, it was actually Miejue Shitai, the head of Emei, Wudang Five Heroes, and the head of Kunlun, Mr. and Mrs. He.These many masters dispatched at the same time, unexpectedly made a nameless rat disappear from sight, it's hard to avoid feeling disheartened.

Miejue Shitai saw the shadow moving outside the inn, and shouted: "Who is sneaking around, hiding his head and showing his tail!" The shadow by the door came forward tremblingly, with ragged clothes, long beard and long hair, it was a monkey tricker in the daytime .The monkey joker said in a hoarse voice: "Heroes, please give me back the little monkey!" He knelt down and kowtowed.He Taichong frowned and said: "There are no monkeys of yours here, hurry up, don't get in the way here." The monkey player cried and said: "Everyone, heroes! Today a great hero Su said that he would give my monkey to his family. Miss Gongzi relieved her boredom, so she snatched my monkey, and I saw him enter this inn with my own eyes, I beg you heroes to decide! My monkey and I depend on each other for our lives, and I can’t live without it!” stand up.

Yin Liting stepped forward to help the monkey showman and said: "Little brother, don't cry first, we will help you find the monkey." It turned out that although Yin Liting saw that this man had long beard and long hair, his speech and behavior were obviously very young.The monkey tricker was supported by Yin Liting, and immediately stopped crying, and looked at Yin Liting steadfastly, Yin Liting noticed that his eyes were very close to her, and only thought that he was grateful, and smiled at him.

Yin Liting said to He Taichong: "Mr. Tieqin, since this little brother said that Brother Su from your sect robbed his monkey, whether it is right or wrong, you can ask Brother Su to come out and ask, can you tell?" It's not easy for me to get rid of his reputation as the Six Heroes of Wudang, so I had to order someone to call Su Xizhi.

Seeing the monkey man standing beside Yin Liting, Su Xizhi glared at him angrily, and with anger in his heart, he also opened his eyes to look at him.Everyone saw several bloodstains on both sides of Su Xizhi's cheeks, and knowing that what the monkey tricker said was true, Yin Liting moved half a step and stood in front of the monkey tricker.He Taichong raised his eyebrows, and said angrily: "You disgraceful villain, you still haven't handed over this little brother's monkey!" Su Xizhi knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "Master, this is a bright lesson! Today, the monkey juggler gathered to make a noise The disciple was afraid that he would disturb the peace of the seniors, and felt sorry for the loneliness of the old man, so he bought his monkey with money. But the monkey was stubborn and unruly, and it disappeared after scratching the apprentice.”

The monkey juggler burst into tears and said, "He gave ten copper coins and took my monkey away. Now that he has lost it, how can I live in the future!" , still don’t apologize to my little brother!” Su Xizhi got up quickly and bowed to the monkey-player, saying, “Old man, I’m sorry, I was reckless today, please forgive me a lot.” The monkey-player didn’t answer, just stopped Wipe away tears.He Taichong took out a large ingot of grained silver and handed it to the monkey-player, saying: "The villain has nothing to do with you and has ruined your art for a living. You should take this little silver to tide over the current difficulties first, and if you need it in the future, you can come to my Kunlun Send it here." The monkey-player stood still with his hands down, squinting sideways, with a very cold expression on his face.Yin Liting took the silver and stuffed it into the hands of the monkey player, saying: "Little brother, use the money to start a small business, don't play monkeys for a living and sleep in the open."

The monkey player knelt down and bowed three times to everyone in Wudang, choking with sobs, said: "Thank you, hero. The hero has shown kindness to the villain again, and the villain is hard to repay." He turned and staggered away.

After everyone left, a person came out from the dark, looked around, and chased after the monkey man. Under the moonlight, the person had a slender figure, a slender woman.

The girl followed the monkey man out of the town, looked around for no one, jumped up to the monkey man, and asked a series of questions: "Who are you? Why did you save me? Are you one of them who are coming to harm Mingjiao?" ?” The monkey joker said in a hoarse voice, “If you have nothing important to do, girl, please go back, this is not where you should come.” As he spoke, he started to leave.The girl said angrily: "You haven't answered my question, don't leave!" She pulled out the dagger from her waist and stabbed the monkey man's lower body.

The monkey player didn't move, stretched out his fingers and flicked the edgeless part of her sword, the girl held the sword uncertainly, and fell to the ground with a jingle sound, but she changed her moves very quickly, after her right hand left the sword, she took two fingers straight to the monkey player. The human eyes are extremely fierce.The monkey player still flicked his finger, and hit the "Yangchi" point on her wrist, the girl's arm went numb and she couldn't move at once.

The young girl did not change her mind, and kicked the monkey player's waist with flying legs. The monkey player stepped back and avoided, saying: "Your lord's martial arts is so high that there are few other martial artists. The girl's move of 'Double Dragon Seizes the Pearl' is really powerful." Uncommon." The girl was taken aback, and said, "You know my father? Are you a member of the Ming religion?" The monkey man shook his head and said, "I met your father a few years ago, and I met you at that time, but you I'm still young, so I just don't remember."

Seeing his tattered clothes and filthy face, the young girl felt quite uncertain, and said: "I have an old friend who died here five years ago. Today is his death taboo. I came to pay homage to him, but I heard that traitor He Taichong People slandered Daddy and wanted to destroy Mingjiao, but the ones who killed him were clearly from the Kunlun faction!" The monkey joker was heartbroken, and at this time the six sects were besieging Mingjiao, and her father was taking care of Wumei, and this little girl ran away alone Come out, good life is worrying.Immediately said: "Miss, let's go back as soon as possible, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time." The numbness in the girl's body has disappeared at this time, she picked up the dagger on the ground, and said: "I want to see him first, and leave tomorrow morning." The monkey man looked at it. The girl went to the dense forest on the mountain, her thoughts fluctuated, she stood in the cold wind for a long time, and finally sighed, turned and returned to the town.

After the two left, a man in white jumped down from the tree and followed the girl's trail.

The monkey player returned to the town and waited anxiously at the door of the inn.At dawn, the Emei Miejue teacher led his disciples to go first, and the Kunlun sent a temporary stay in the town to receive them.Not long after, the Five Heroes of Wudang bid farewell to He Taichong and his wife, and headed west with a total of 32 third-generation disciples.

The monkey-player was afraid that going forward rashly would only increase the disaster, so he followed the people of Wudang far away, eating and sleeping in the open, all the way westward, from the vast grassland to the vast desert.On this day, the Wudang faction encountered the Mingjiao fiery banner formation, although several people were injured, Yin Liting and Mo Shenggu pursued them bravely and returned injured.

The monkey joker was kind-hearted, so he couldn't help showing up to help.Yin Liting thanked him repeatedly, and said: "We knew that someone was following behind, but we didn't expect it to be you? Why did you come to the desert?" The monkey man lowered his eyes to heal the burning on his left arm, and said: "I The monkey is gone, I have no place to go, you are very kind to me, I want to follow you." Yin Liting said: "We are going to a far away place to kill bad people, it is very dangerous for you to follow us, go back quickly." Humanity: "If I go back to town, I won't be able to escape the murderous hands of the master of the Kunlun faction. It's better to follow you. I know some medical skills, so I won't drag you down."

The monkey player looked up at Yin Liting, his eyes were full of pleading, Yin Liting softened his heart, and said: "You can follow us, but you have to avoid the enemy yourself." The monkey player was very happy, and took Yin Liting's hand, Repeatedly agreed.

The monkey-player walked with the Wudang people for half a month. On the way, they fought several times with Mingjiao Lihuo and Jumu Erqi.Everyone in Wudang was amazed to see his young age and exquisite medical skills. When asked about his background, he said: "I am originally from the south of the Yangtze River. Both my parents died when I was young. I studied medicine with an unknown doctor in the countryside. A few years later, master and wife died of smallpox, and I couldn't survive in the Central Plains, so I wandered everywhere, so I came here." The Wudang heroes saw his expressions filled with sadness, knowing that his words were true, Yin Liting felt even more sorry, and held his hand Said: "Our hometown is close, and we will take you home after the business here is over." The monkey man nodded with tears in his eyes.

When he arrived at Deyixia Gorge, Yin Liting gave a set of his old clothes to the monkey player, and asked him to change out of his clothes.The monkey people knew that they were filthy and smelly, and it was rare for them to endure these many days. They took the clothes, thanked them and left.

At this time, the night was completely dark, and everyone lit the lamps and buried pots to cook.The heroes of Wudang sat around the fire to discuss how to deal with the factions. The monkey man washed his hair by the water, cut his hair short, put it in a bun, cut a hairpin from a tree branch, put it in the bun, pondered for a while, and said The beard is not shaved, only slightly trimmed.Dressed up like this, he changed from a wild man in the deep mountains to a bearded man. The monkey man was very satisfied with his change, he cracked his lips and made a few grimaces at the reflection in the water.

When the monkey player returned to the crowd, Mo Shenggu wondered: "How old are you this year? Why do you have such a beard?" The monkey player stroked his beard and said with a smile, "I'm just 20 years old and have been wandering around. I didn't think of shaving." Song Yuanqiao said: "The dog doesn't matter how old you are, you can be a companion in the future." Song Yuanqiao's son Song Qingshu had a good impression of this young man with excellent medical skills and a kind personality, and at this time he heard his father's instructions , stood up and said hello, then pulled him to the side.Yu Lianzhou asked, "What's your name?" The monkey joker was really afraid of this cold-faced second hero, and said respectfully, "The boy Zeng Nianci, I have met Yu Erxia." Yu Lianzhou looked him up and down, hummed and said: " Sit down." Zeng Nianci bowed his thanks and sat beside Song Qingshu.Song Qingshu whispered: "Don't be afraid, Second Uncle is cold-faced and warm-hearted, and treats people very well." Zeng Nianci smiled back at Song Qingshu to show his gratitude.

After dinner, everyone agreed that tomorrow Song Yuanqiao and his son would lead the Wudang people to meet in Yiyixia, and Yu Zhangyinmo would be divided into four directions to meet the factions.After the heroes assigned all the matters, Zeng Nianci asked: "I don't know what happened to the Demon Sect, so that you have to work hard for the heroes to march thousands of miles to the west?" Yin Liting said bitterly: "The Demon Sect monsters do all kinds of evil, and they deserve all the crimes. Die!" Seeing this, Zeng Nianci felt very sad, and pulled Song Qingshu's sleeve, hesitant to speak.Song Yuanqiao sighed: "Mr. Zeng, don't be offended, it's really unfortunate for the teacher."

Zeng Nianci said: "Heroes, I don't know much about martial arts, I have rescued several famous people in martial arts, but they would cook me up in the end, if it wasn't for people from Mingjiao who saved me , I would have died a long time ago." Mo Shenggu said loudly: "There are such evil things, who are some famous people, I will help you get justice." Zeng Nianci said: "It is Kongtong sage Jialan , Huashan, Xue Gongyuan, and the others.” Mo Shenggu thought for a moment, and said, “This is a famous person, but they have been dead for several years. Could it be someone from the Demon Sect who killed them?” Zeng Nianci whispered, “I killed them.” Yes." Mo Shenggu praised: "Good skills!" Yin Liting persuaded: "They will avenge their kindness, and they will die without guilt. You don't have to be too sad. These martial arts scum, death is not a pity." Yu Lianzhou interjected and asked: "Zeng Xianggong is six years old. Did you meet them in Fengyang before? That year Fengyang was a thousand miles away, and people were eating each other, it was really miserable." Zeng Nianci was startled, but he didn't dare to deceive each other, so he answered bravely: "Yes "Yu Lianzhou looked at him and stopped talking, Zeng Nianci was overwhelmed by his probing eyes, and hid behind Song Qingshu and dared not raise his head.Yu Lianzhou stared at him for a while, then said, "Go to sleep."

Seeing that Zeng Nianci was stared at by Yu Lianzhou, Song Qingshu was really scared, and said in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, I will take you around when the uncle and the others leave tomorrow. This desert scenery is not found in the Central Plains." Zeng Nianci replied in a low voice: "I'm afraid this is not good." Song Qingshu said: "The six major sects come from all directions, forgiving the people of the Demon Sect would not dare to act rashly." Seeing his high spirits, Zeng Nianci couldn't bear to please him, and nodded in agreement.
