When Cao Changqing and the Emperor played chess, the eunuch bent down to hold the chess box. The Empress saw the ribbon of the Emperor's Virtuous Crown fall, so she reached out to help him fasten it. The Emperor took pity on the Eight Dippers of Chess beside him, so when he saw this, he only smiled knowingly and was not angry at all. This beautiful story was passed down from falsehood. Later in the literary world, it was said that when Cao Changqing was drunk, he directly called the eunuch by his name and shouted for him to take off his boots. This made the scholars endlessly daydream. But this was something that could only happen in the West Chu Dynasty. Today's imperial court, as well as most people's Jianghu, were far less poetic and picturesque. The great literati singing the song of the Great River East with an iron pipa was undoubtedly heroic and heroic. But the common people who made a living on the river day and night would inevitably spit a few mouthfuls of saliva into the river when the harvest was not good. The corpses in front of the Fish-dragon Gang, who failed to snatch the secret manual and lost their lives, were just like the old saying, "When the hand raises the knife, the body will be carried away." Hsu Fengnian quietly dismounted from his horse and went to the corpses. He squatted down and rummaged through the corpses, as if he wanted to take advantage of the dead people's wealth. Liu Nerong was originally a little embarrassed by the behavior of her gang members, but when she saw that the man surnamed Xu did not care about the morality of Jianghu, she turned her head away. As for the words of the swordsman from the Chess and Sword Music School, other than the shame and anger that she had to show to her gang members, her heart had already become numb. Whether it was Zhou Ziru, who relied on his power to kill people, or this Beimang swordsman who relied on his astuteness to snatch the secret manual, weren't they all the same kind of people who looked elegant on the outside but were actually the same kind of people? She held a grudge against the man surnamed Xu, but she accepted his straightforwardness more. At the very least, he never pretended to be a bad person. The lecher from the Chess, Sword, and Music House was not stupid. Once he was done with his mouth, he started to run away. However, he had only run seventy to eighty feet when he was intercepted by someone. It was the gray-robed old man with an aquiline nose who had taken the initiative to return to the danger zone. The old man had a ferocious appearance and dark purple lips. He laughed and said, "Wang Weixue, in this game of cat and mouse, you're the one who used your mind the most. In the end, you're too smart for your own good. After I kill you, I'll take the 'Green Stallion' and frame these Liang barbarians."
When Wang Weixue saw the old man with a hooked nose, he did not show any fear. He took out the secret manual from his chest and laughed, "Old Immortal Song, you must be joking. How is this cat and mouse? It is clearly a cat and tiger who overestimates its own strength. Before I left the Chess and Sword Music School, my teachers told me to just borrow it from Old Immortal Song and I will return it with both hands. I will not rob it. But if Old Immortal Song is unwilling to lend it to me, I will return it to its rightful owner. There is no need for Old Immortal Song to do anything. It is just that everyone in Jianghu says that Old Immortal Song will seek revenge for the smallest grievance. I, Wang Weixue, am still young, so I am not sure if I have offended Old Immortal Song. "
The old man in gray narrowed his eyes and said gloomily, "Since you are sensible, I will not kill you. Don't worry, I will return the 'Green Nightmare' to you. Naturally, I will not be calculative with you. Speaking of which, I am of the same generation as your martial uncle, the Sword of Benevolence Wang Hefei. If I am not wrong, this' Green Nightmare 'from the Wu Family's Sword Tomb is what your teacher with an interesting name wants. Boy, don't worry, after I understand the swordsmanship manual, I will naturally go to your Chess and Sword Music School and exchange it with you. Don't waste my time, give it to me! "
When Wang Weixue saw the ruthless look in the eyes of the notorious devil, he threw out the secret manual with an extraordinary origin without hesitation. After the grey-robed old man took it, he stuffed it into his sleeve without even looking at it. He stretched out his hand again and said with a hideous smile, "My good grandson, don't test my patience. If you don't behave, I'll take your life! Even if those people are in front of me, it will be easy for me to kill you before I leave. "
Wang Weixue smiled innocently. He quickly took out a page torn from the Qingfu Sword Code, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it to the Devil Dao magnate. Wang Weixue praised, "Elder Song's foresight is amazing. Little tricks can't escape the eyes of an old immortal. Wang Weixue is impressed."
The old man in gray rubbed open the page. After confirming that there was no mistake, his face changed, as if he was considering whether to kill this young man from the Chess and Sword Music School. Wang Weixue stood in place and said innocently, "Elder Song, do you want my martial uncle to come out early to talk about the old days?"
The old man in gray who had regained the secret manual touched his aquiline nose, and the haze in his eyes dispersed. He laughed heartily and said, "Your grandson's temperament is quite different from the rotten wood of the Chess, Sword, and Music School. It's a pity that he joined the wrong sect. If I saw him earlier, I might have taken him in and trained him well."
Wang Weixue, who lost the secret manual, was even happier. He smiled and said, "What a pity, Elder Song. It seems that I am not so lucky."
The old man turned and left. His body was like an eagle and disappeared in a few jumps.
Hsu Fengnian searched for a long time. Except for a few hundred taels of silver notes and a few porcelain bottles, he did not find a single secret manual. It seemed that these Jianghu people also knew that fighting for secret manuals was a matter of life and death, so they did not dare to take the really valuable things with them. The old man in gray who dared not to take the Chess and Sword Music School seriously was obviously not a weak person. Judging by his Lightness Skill, he was firmly in the second class. If one did not have the ability to fight for such a person, one would not dare to join in the fun. Moreover, the most dangerous thing about fighting for secret manuals was to be on guard against attacks from all sides. When the Spring and Autumn Period was still around, the martial arts world elected a leader who had both fame and strength. He led a large team of four or five hundred people to fight against an old devil in the Finger Mystery Realm. Killing the devil only cost about a hundred lives. After that, ownerless treasures appeared and many people died. The leader was even chopped into meat paste by his peers. After the tragedy, there was still another tragedy. The leader's manor was turned into ashes overnight. His parents, wife, children, and servants all died. From then on, no one was willing to be the leader of the martial arts world.
Wang Weixue, the Yue House swordsman who was destined to return empty-handed, slapped himself in the face in front of everyone. He then walked to the Fish-dragon Gang and said shamelessly, "Miss Liu, it is fate that we met. I want to go to Liucheng. Can you lend me a horse to accompany you? If you don't have a spare horse, we can share one. "
Liu Nerong was angry.
Hsu Fengnian stood up and said with a smile, "You can borrow my horse."
Wang Weixue smiled and said, "Do you think you are worthy?"
Hsu Fengnian smiled and ignored this swordsman from a famous family. He said to Liu Nerong, "I will go after that old man and see if I can find a master."
The Fish-dragon Gang looked at each other. This Xu guy's face and courage were not inferior to that bastard Wang Weixue's at all.
