【Commentary】129 Chapter 9 Bright Sword
Zheng Meng said: "What do you say about Mrs. Sister-in-law, Jiang Zhaoxi has never returned since he was dispatched, why, he has already left Mount Tai,"
"Cliff Monster" Cao Zhengwu's eyes stood up, and he snorted heavily: "He does such a thing, if I don't fight out of the Taishan faction, can I keep him?"
Huo Qiuhai said: "Old swordsman, with all due respect, I have a very good relationship with Jiang Zhaoxian, and he often comes to my gossip door to go back and forth, as far as I know, the Jiang family is also a huge rich party in Qingzhou Mansion, Jiang Zhaoxian has always been courteous, everyone knows, how can he covet the things of the deceased, Guan Shao said that he opened the coffin and stole the funeral goods, it is too nonsense,"
The heroes didn't believe it, but Chang Sihao had heard an ear at the morning meeting of the Hundred Swords League [Xianmo: Wonderful, obviously it was carefully arranged to write it in front, and here it is biased to use "I have heard an ear" to cover up, it seems that it is really an unintentional idle matter], and he has other thoughts in his heart, knowing that the master of the Zheng League They suspect that the death of Mo Ye, the head of Taishan, has no hidden secrets, Jiang Zhaoxian may really go to open the coffin, but not to steal things, but to conduct an autopsy [ Xianmo: I and Da Chen have examined Qin Yi's corpse, so I want to get it directly here, otherwise with Xiao Chang's brain, I'm afraid I have to think about it again to understand,], if someone held down his hand at that time, it's really a little inexplicable.
Kong Jingxi took two steps forward and said slowly: "Jiang Zhao's attack on the name of 'Yunmen Sword Confucian', everyone in the rivers and lakes knows, old and talented, it is the fifty-ninth generation of Confucius's unscrupulous descendants, since he was a child, he abandoned literature and martial arts, and walked around the rivers and lakes for decades, and he was also looked down upon by his friends back then.
Shi Benxiu smiled and said: "The old swordsman is joking, how can this thing be called famous,"
Kong Jingxi said thoughtfully: "Oh, it turned out that I can't call it, alas, I take this false name as a real thing, it looks like I am really confused," his eyes glanced sideways and coldly, of course Huo Qiuhai understood who he was talking about, his eyes met and shrank, and he lowered his head, Kong Jingxi let out a long sigh and said: "Although Mo Ye is the head of the Taishan faction, he is also the nephew of our two old guys, Hongying, this child is filial [Xianmo: With Douwen Coke, with the later text, it is even more enjoyable] , I know that the white-haired person sends the black-haired person, and it is easy to arouse sadness, so I didn't send a message to the back mountain, let us go over to condole, but such a big thing, such a big movement, can we still not know, Mo Ye, this child is Senior Brother Xu from Dalan Township [Xianmo: vomiting blood, the tooth is about to laugh off,] picked it up, no father and no mother, grew up beside us since childhood, he is gone, we, who are uncles, have to be sent on the last journey,"
Although Kong and Cao Erlao are in good spirits, they are also in their twilight years, gray-haired, and when they hear him say this, they can't help but feel desolate, but Chang Sihao thinks in his heart: "Ying Hongying's move is also filial piety, but the head of the house has passed away, and it should always be notified, she blocked the news of the two elders, is it not because the death of the head of the house is really strange, and she is afraid that the two elders will investigate," Thinking of this, they all looked at Zheng Mengzhu, Jing Wenzhong and others, they were all listening intently, and they did not move,
I only heard Kong Jingxi say: "When accompanying the sacrifice in the front mountain, Hongying was afraid that we would be tired, and always arranged for us to rest early, but people were old, they ate less, and slept lightly, and they woke up that night, and there was nothing to do. There is a black shadow scurrying in the place covered by the woods, this person's whereabouts are secretive, obviously not the right way, and the light work is wonderful, the footwork is not the same as the stumbling, junior brother, you come to show everyone,"
Cao Zhengwu divided his hands and pressed forward, and staged a starting method in the empty field, only to see his front knees close to his chest, and his hind feet swept the tip of his hips, and his head and neck stretched forward like an eagle probe, and the back of his hands was like a flying swallow. There is a slight difference in the landing phoenix practice method of walking in a straight line,
Kong Jingxi explained: "This step is absolutely in the change of the height of the head and neck, here is the key to adjusting the center of gravity, so that the body from imbalance to balance, balance to imbalance, this kind of practice has a name, called "phoenix wings fall", the difficulty is extremely high, the rivers and lakes are rare, Senior Brother Cao demonstrated only a little fur, compared to the thief, but it is quite inferior," said his eyes to the Lord Zheng League, Cao Zhengwu also took the formula, turned around and jumped back to the original position, looking at it together,
Zheng Mengzhu said: "The phoenix wings fall is the same as catching the clouds and the ghost step, it is the alliance of the 'dream chasing three falls] [Xianmo: the dream chaser falls, injuries, the phoenix, the god of nothingness, the cloud, the elusive, the ghost, not owned by the world, the three refer to the dream, the thought is miserable and sad, the Hundred Swords League is the dream alliance, everywhere does not leave the dream,' one, scholars are one after another, few adults [Xianmo: There are very few people who realize their dreams,], Jiang Zhaoxian has worked the 'phoenix wings falling', slightly surpassing his peers, looking at the rivers and lakes, there are indeed not many people who will, ”
Kong Jingxi nodded: "The leader of the alliance does not avoid suspicion, it can be seen that he is open-minded," he breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "At that time, since the two of us saw it, we couldn't sit idly by, so I raised my breath and followed it, this person went around in a big circle in the mountains, sneaked outside the mourning hall, and lay on the courtyard wall to look, but he never made any unusual behavior, plus his face was covered with a black cloth, and he couldn't see his facial features clearly, and it was not easy for the old man to identify him as Jiang Zhaoxian,
At that time, the old man thought that there were a lot of special people on the rivers and lakes, maybe this was a friend of the nephew before the death of the manager, due to various reasons, it was inconvenient to show up to pay respects, so he stopped Senior Brother Cao, did not come forward to ask, did not expect, the next night, and found that he went to the mourning hall to visit, so for three consecutive nights, all so, the last night, the spirit has been guarded to the ninth day, the next day will be out of the funeral coffin to be buried, only Hongying and our grandson Guan Yiyan are left in the mourning hall, the grandson sees that his mother is tired, he is distressed, he says that he is alive and alive, and persuades Hongying to rest, and he kneels on the lamp to keep the spirit, the child is also sleepless for several nights, and his body is boiled to the limit, kneeling there and danglingIn order to avoid falling asleep, after a while, I knocked my head a few times, and I saw that our old brother's heart was also sour."
The group of heroes looked at Ying Hongying's arms, and thought in their hearts: "The identity and age of the old swordsman Kong are there, and it must be true when he speaks, this child is so filial, and it is really rare, it seems that the statement that his father and son are not harmonious is all spread by the rivers and lakes,"
I only heard Kong Jingxi say: " The masked man observed on the wall, our old brother watched from afar, Guan Yiyan knelt in the hall, so after about half an hour, I heard the child's belly cooing, he couldn't eat and drink for a few days, he couldn't even remember the thatched house, the cold day knelt on the ground for a long time, presumably also caught some cold, made a fuss, it can be seen, he didn't want to move, endured for a while, it seemed difficult to persevere, so he got up and ran to the latrine, the masked man saw him go and immediately acted, jumped into the mourning hall, opened the coffin lid and stretched out his hand, Senior Brother Cao was furious, just wanted to show up to stop it, but heard a roar, and the child rushed in from outside the courtyard, ”
Xia Zenghui looked suspicious, and interjected and asked: "Old swordsman, please forgive me, since this person is here to steal, the speed of opening the coffin must be quite fast, why does the young man come back so quickly?"
Guan Yiyan wiped away his tears and said: "I was afraid that the ever-bright lamp would be blown out by the wind, so I didn't go far, I didn't go to the toilet, I only squatted in the corner of the wall, I heard the sound of the coffin lid, so I hurriedly got up and came back, I didn't expect to bump into this thief, he stretched out his hand in the coffin and was touching, he was frightened, and hurriedly grabbed the sword and wanted to escape......"
When Kong Jingxi told the story just now, the group of heroes didn't hear him say that the masked man had a sword, and he was wondering to himself, Xia Zenghui came to his senses and asked: "The sword that the masked man grabbed is a burial thing in the coffin,"
Guan Yiyan didn't answer, beckoned, a disciple of Taishan took off the package on his body, stepped up to open it, and saw that there was a long sword inside, the white snakeskin sheath was inlaid with silver hooks, the sword grid was carved from a whole piece of mutton fat jade, and the handle of the mother-of-pearl piece had spots on the red mark, which was gorgeous and abnormal, Guan Yiyan struggled to stand up from his mother's arms, and raised the scabbard with one hand to show the heroes: "Although this 'Mulberry' sword is not as good as the 'glacial river inserting into the sea, Ying complained about the four famous swords, but it is also a good treasure soldier, after my father bought it with a lot of money in the early years, he liked it very much, so he made a funeral," said and pointed to the sword grid, "choked", and flicked the sword out of the sheath,
The heroes only felt a white light dazzling, all of them opened their eyes, the people in the rivers and lakes all cherish the treasure soldiers, one is the martial people love the house and the Wu, naturally like to enjoy the weapons, the other is walking the rivers and lakes, it is inevitable to encounter the killing array, the weapons can take advantage of the advantages, it will not help to win, and it is easy to escape with life, so at this moment I saw that this sword was beautifully decorated, the texture was pure, and they all showed envy, and secretly praised: "Good sword,"
Guan Yiyan said: "Jiang Zhaoxi learned that there was this sword in the funeral goods, so he started to steal it, and the bloody handprint on it was his,"
Only then did everyone understand that the red spot on the stalk turned out to be blood.
At this moment, the tip of the sword is against the sheath, most of the blade is outside, trembling and reflecting the natural blue, setting off the bloody handprint that is high above more obviously, the heroes naturally know Guan Yiyan's intentions, their eyes turned to Zheng Mengzhu and others, and they all said in their hearts: "He has established a sword in the league, and everyone loves the sword like an idiot, if it is ordinary property, Jiang Zhaoxian doesn't care about it, but if it is replaced by this sword, it is difficult to say that it will not be itchy in his heart,"
Chang Sihao saw that Zheng Meng's face was also sad for the first time, and pondered: "People's hearts are separated from their stomachs, and they don't know how to do things, it seems that Uncle Zheng is not completely at ease with Jiang Zhao's attack,"
Guan Yiyan raised the sheath and picked up the sword, walked around the field, brushed and shook the sword into the sheath, and sent it to the platform of the Sumeru seat to be examined by the master on the hill, and said with tears in his eyes: "Master, when I saw this masked man tampering with the coffin, my eyes were red, I didn't care about everything, I rushed up and punched the fist, the thief drew the sword and hit the hand quickly, only one looked at the face, it was like a thousand tricks and hundreds of styles, and I had 19 large and small scars on my body, which was given by him. The two masters of Cao shot in time, and I fell to the ground with a sword, only to see Master Cao make a fierce move, and he couldn't take advantage of it for a while, Master Kong was afraid that he would lose, so he shot together and injured one of his arms, so he took it down, but he didn't expect to press it on the ground and take off the veil to see that this thief was Jiang Zhao's attack,"
The heroes all understood in their hearts that Jiang Zhao's status in the Hundred Swords Alliance was not low, and it was not easy to cultivate martial arts, the two old swordsmen were old and virtuous, and it was not a glorious thing to take two enemies and a big one, but at this moment, Guan Yiyan was able to put it together, obviously the truth was true, I saw him say this, tilted his head and rubbed his tears on his shoulder and arm clothes, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Although the fight was fast at that time, the movement was not small, my mother, Uncle Jia, Uncle Xu, Uncle Bai and they came when they heard the sound, and they were all stunned when they saw this meeting, Jiang Gong is a noble envoy in the alliance, we dare not offend, so we only took the sword back and sent him back to the guest room, and when the funeral was held the next day, he and a few retinues brought with him were already gone,"
Cao Zhengwu's eyes widened and said, "It turns out that you didn't bomb him away, but he fled with shame himself,"
Ying Hongying hurriedly said: "Uncle Shi is angry, if I relied on you at that time, I was afraid that things would get bigger and bigger, it was my Uncle Confucius who persuaded you to leave and dealt with this matter on his own, if you are always angry, blame your niece,"
Guan Yiqian said: "Mother, it's my son who is afraid of things, so I went to ask Master Kong, what do you do for me, today is today, my son's face has been lost enough in front of the heroes of the world, what else is there to hide," [Xianmo: Qin Langchuan is really blind, this child must be a character when he grows up, I am afraid that he is second only to Qin Juexiang and Cheng Lian'an,]
Qunxiong heard the words and pondered: "Look at this situation, at that time, the old swordsman Cao must have been very angry, and he either wanted to fight or kill Jiang Zhao's attack, and the worst thing was to go down the mountain, Guan Yiqian was afraid of causing trouble to the Taishan faction, so he was worried about the funeral, and the grievances were all right, at that time, the funeral was imminent, everything was busy, Ying Hongying had no choice but to obey her son's wishes, her husband had just died, and she was a widow's home, and it was really not good,"
The man on the hill saw the bloody handprints, his face was solemn, and he slowly handed the sword to the master of Zheng Meng, and the heroes all stopped talking, and looked forward in unison, waiting for him to give an explanation.
Guan Yiyan "fluttered", knelt down at the bottom of the steps, and cried: "Uncle Zheng, after the funeral, my mother has always been worried about this matter, and I will definitely go to Beijing to find you for justice, the little nephew used the excuse of recuperating from his injuries, and he delayed and persuaded, persuaded and persuaded, and finally couldn't resist her, so he was carried into Beijing, and there were many collisions in her words, you have a lot of adults, don't blame ......" said and cried, Zheng Mengzhu came down the stairs to hug, he hurriedly rubbed his knees and retreated, crying: " Uncle is the big sword among the people, how can the little nephew be able to come and receive your bow, today has come to this point, everything has been explained, the little nephew has nothing else to ask for, only a reluctant request, and hope that the uncle will be fulfilled,"
Zheng Meng said: "Please speak,"
Guan Yiyan said: "The sword into the ground, there is inevitably a sigh of burying gold, and this matter has spread, and then this sword will be buried together, I am afraid that there will be thieves and thieves digging graves, so that my father is uneasy under the spring, we practice martial arts people love weapons, see the treasure soldiers, it is inevitable that they will not be moved, I think that Jiang Zhaoxi is also a person who loves swords, and it is understandable to do something wrong temporarily, what is fair or unfair, it is needless to discuss, the little nephew is injured here' Under the sword, when I see this sword every day, I feel frightened and uneasy, no matter what, I can't keep it by my side, and I am willing to give it to Jiang Gong, and ask my uncle to collect it on my behalf,"
This is amazing, Zheng Meng's main hand is holding this sword, it is not, it is not, it is not, when he is in a dilemma, he only listens to Guan Yiyan and continues: "The little nephew had the intention to give up the position of the head of the house, and withdrew from the rivers and lakes, but my mother had great expectations for me, and the little nephew did not dare to be rebellious, so I had to take care of my mind and fight hard, hoping that in the future, I could take care of the Taishan faction properly, carry it forward, and live up to the expectations of my mother and uncles, the cultivation of the two masters and the spirit of my father in the sky,"
Xia Zenghui high-fived and praised: "Good, good boy, filial piety, responsible," the heroes were led by him, and they all changed their views on Guan Yiyan, and called two hellos, Guan Yiyan turned around with a nod on his knees, bowed to everyone and thanked him, and his head knocked on the ground with a bang.
Jing Wenzhong and the other swords frowned, originally Guan Yiyan's position as the head of the family was not justifiable enough, according to this situation, he would be able to sit down.
The applause rang for a while before it gradually subsided, Xia Zenghui stepped forward with a smile, helped Guan Yiqian and said: "Guan Shaojian is young and promising, in charge of the Taishan portal, he will be able to magnify his own faction, the name of the rivers and lakes, the old decay represents the whole world, and fully supports it, in the future, we can be more close and closer," Bai Shiying said: " Good boy, our martial arts decency has always been to convince people with virtue, as long as you have this heart, you can do anything well, if you encounter something difficult in the future, give you a note to Uncle Bai, your fourth uncle with the Songshan faction, the water comes to the water, the fire comes to the fire, and you must not be wronged," Kong Jingxi and Cao Zhengwu were beside them, each nodding with satisfaction, and the Jia Jiucheng of the Huashan faction and Xu Jiansan of the Hengshan faction also gave good words of encouragement,
"Thank you for your strong support," Guan Yiyan waved around, lifted his spirits, and said loudly: "Back then, the patriarch of the five factions made an oath with Wei Lao Swordsman, everyone will come if they agree, and if they don't, they will go, and now the practice of the Hundred Swords Alliance is very different from that of Wei Lao Swordsman, as mentioned before, there is no need to say more, Zheng Meng's master is highly talented, has his own machine, and acts far beyond the conventional habits of martial arts. I can't agree, but I don't dare to make up my mind, all I can do is wait and see the blessings, today's matter is out, and it is inconvenient for my Taishan faction to take a seat in the corpse position in the Hundred Swords Alliance," he paused here, his eyes were excited, [Xianmo: This child's aura can't be suppressed, it's tender,], and suddenly raised his breath and said: "The disciples of the Taishan faction listen to the order of the master,"
As soon as these words came out, everyone from the Taishan faction, together with Ying Hongying, and even the second elder Kong and Cao, immediately stood up, and said in unison: "Listen to the orders of the master,"
Guan Yiyan faced everyone, pointed his halberd to the sky, and said sharply: "From today on, the Taishan faction has officially withdrawn from the Hundred Swords Alliance,"
