Why did the past come and go, and die without regret for those who have been diligently seeking and who cannot shirk.

Zhou Yitang smiled and said, "I think you should like it."

Zhou Fei was silent for a moment, then pushed up the shattered scabbard, and replaced the Miao Dao that had been made all the way, and suddenly smiled at Zhou Yitang: "Father, if you have something to say, just say it directly, I don't need to talk too much about that, and I still go around. In such a big circle, it’s both based on things and based on history, to be honest, I haven’t turned two pages of the book since you left, so I don’t necessarily understand what you are saying every time.”

Zhou Yitang: "..."

Apart from his looks, this child really doesn't look like his own.

Zhou Fei thought for a while, and then asked, "Father, if you were that Senior Lu, would you hide in the Great Medicine Valley and refine something like 'Gui Yin Dan' and 'Gui Yang Dan'?"

Zhou Yitang smiled.

"I didn't understand why you left in the past, but now I know. I blamed you before, but now I don't." Zhou Fei paused, then said, "I... met a senior on the way, and he knew my surname was Zhou. After that, ask me to ask you a question for him."

Zhou Yitang: "Huh?"

Zhou Fei said: "That man is an old monk, he asked you, 'Slaying demons, demons and monsters with a sharp blade, and at the beginning of the victory, when the demons bow their heads and the magic weapon rolls their blades, what kind of sacrifice should be used to quell the resentment and calamity in the hearts of those who bowed their heads? '?"

Zhou Yitang's smile gradually faded.

Zhou Fei took out a cloth bag from the package behind her and handed it to him: "The old monk said, if you can't answer, let me give you this jiāo."

Zhou Yitang took it, and without opening it, he said, "Be careful with your own seal?"

Zhou Fei was taken aback: "How do you know?"

Zhou Yitang said helplessly: "It's fine for ordinary people in Jianghu to make trouble, but Chu Tianquan and King Kang actually appeared in Yongzhou openly. After that, His Royal Highness King Kang kept a secret, and Beidou Wenqu died there inexplicably. I haven’t heard of anything, and I don’t have to take a corpse for a meal—did the monk tell you that his name is ‘Tongming’? What did the master give me this gān?”

Shen Dufang Yin was on the body of the dead Chu Tianquan at that time, but the people beside the corpse of the big devil at that time, from Ying He Cong to Zhou Fei, were all confused, and they unexpectedly scrambled for such a key object. Forgot. Fortunately, the old monk Tongming, who was looking for Xie Yun's traces, passed by, and he didn't let this Shen Dufang Yin land in the wilderness, and was inexplicably taken away by some wild shòu to make a nest.

Zhou Fei looked confused.

Zhou Yitang opened the cloth bag, looked at the water ripples on it, pondered for a moment, seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and said in a low voice, "Could it be..."

Zhou Fei secretly stretched out her ears.

However, Zhou Yitang wrapped Fang Yin again, and asked, "What else did he say?"

Zhou Fei suppressed her itchy heart and said, "Oh, I also told you to help me show you the way."

Zhou Yitang raised his eyebrows slightly.

"He asked me to ask where Liang Shao is buried." Zhou Fei said this, as if she was afraid that Zhou Yitang would misunderstand that the old monk was going to dig a tomb, and hurriedly explained, "It's for a... friend, among him There is a strange poison, and we can't do anything about it, Liang... That lord used to have some jiāoqíng with Da Yaogu, and it is said that many of the relics of Yaogu are in his hands, so..."

"Friend?" Zhou Yitang glanced at her.

Zhou Fei lowered her head to study the toes of her shoes, nodded and said, "En."

A smile flashed across Zhou Yitang's face, but he didn't ask any further, he just said, "Master Tongming is too rigid. Since I asked you to ask, what gift should I give? Don't I tell you?"

Zhou Fei: "..."

It is said that Zhou Cun once studied under Liang Shao, and probably Master Tongming did not expect that her father would be so happy when he heard that someone was going to dig his teacher's grave.

"I'll draw the map for you soon." Zhou Yitang handed the Shen Dufang seal to Zhou Fei, and added, "Take this home and give it to your mother, and call her a 'net worth'. Keep it for me for a few years."

Zhou Fei gave an "oh", but didn't move.

Zhou Yitang wondered, "What's wrong?"

Zhou Fei squeezed around Shen Duyin's edge, but didn't answer directly, she just said, "Uh...that Li Sheng, Li Yan and the others are waiting in front, and sent me to invite you home...uh ... Dad hasn't been home for a few years, and I haven't seen you for many years..."

Zhou Yitang understood as soon as he heard "Li Yan": "Are you guys afraid to go home?"

Zhou Fei: "..."

"I don't have the guts to go home, how can I have the guts to run?" Zhou Yitang glared at her, "Wait, I'll say a few words to them."

Seeing him go out, Zhou Fei lowered her head and smiled, then her smile faded, and she touched the broken cover behind her.

The old monk Tongming entrusted her with three things. The first was to find the ancient book of the Great Medicine Valley that was said to have fallen into Liang Shao's hands - the "Hundred Poison Classic" written by Lu Run.

The second is to collect all kinds of cherished cold relics.

The third is to find a master of the inner family who is able to control both yin and yang.

There may be some clues in the "Hundred Poisons Classic", but what exactly is a holy relic that wards off cold, even the old monk can't say how many. What it means, no one can tell.

Master Tongming asked her to prepare, even if she traveled all over the world, she might still be unable to find it in the end, and the result would still be a falsehood.

But she always wanted to try.

When Zhou Yitang left forty-eight villages, she also stared at the closed mountain gate, and once thought that he would never come back, but now, he is not also close to the village, and has been patrolling around Shushan for a long time, waiting for them Do these juniors give him a step, so that he can go back and talk to the old man confidently?

Even if the sky is the best way, how can you trap yourself in a valley as a prison?

After all, it's that time of the year again.

☆、Chapter 121 Jinan

There is a saying that "people are not good for a thousand days, and flowers are not red for a hundred days."

In the 22nd year of the reign of Emperor Zhao Jianyuan, the prosperous and irreversible fate of the Cao family seemed to have come to an end.

In the first month, Beidou Wenqu first died in Yongzhou City, and in the summer of the same year, the embankment of the Huáng River broke again.

The news of the Northern Emperor's serious illness spread like wildfire, the crown prince was incompetent, and the son of a prostitute, Cao Ning, was very ambitious, unwilling to obey the edict, and held his own troops in front of the two armies.

The Southern Dynasty, which had been dormant for more than 20 years, was also turned upside down.

Emperor Jianyuan suddenly worshipped his ancestors at the Taimiao Temple at dusk, vowing to regain the lost land and unify the north and the south. After that, he changed his usual warmth, revealing his full-fledged fangs.

On the third day of the fourth lunar month, Taishi Fanzheng and his thirteen members and important officials were raided and investigated without warning. Three days later, the eldest son of the emperor, Kang Wang, committed the murder due to lax control and slavery. Acting as a doorman, storing knives and axe in the storehouse, letting go of the birth without the ceremonies, even if there is no conspiracy, how can there be no arrogance” and other crimes, he was slapped with blood by the censor, and Emperor Jianyuan was furious and ordered to deprive Kang of the throne and imprison him in the mansion. , wait for the hair to fall.

That night, his mother, concubine Fan, committed suicide behind the palace wall.

In an instant, the wind direction in Jinling, the southern capital, changed.

And the emperor who was oppressed by the powerful officials in the court for more than 20 years was particularly dissatisfied. The six ministers and nine ministers went from ten to twenty-three within half a month. Countless faces that were not visible in the past were rising steadily. At the end of the month, the imperial students petitioned In front of the imperial palace, Emperor Jianyuan was indifferent and ignored it. The next day, he took down eight people in charge and implicated several ministers in the court on the charge of "bewitching the crowd".

Some actions can be described as "exploring his arms, seizing his power, like lightning and thunder".

Full face up and down, the crows are silent.

Emperor Jianyuan insisted on sending troops to the northern expedition, and the matter was a foregone conclusion.

In September of the same year, the fire of war boiled all the way from the middle of Shu, like pouring boiling water, and flooded most of the rivers and mountains out of control.

It is strange to say that when Cao Ning raided the Forty-eight Villages, the people in Shu were like a catastrophe and fled one after another, for fear that one would be involved in the war if they were not careful.

When the fight really broke out later and people panicked, it was like a small town at the foot of Hengshan that had been neglected, adapting to the new world as quickly as possible.

It is precisely in Taiping that there is a way of living in peacetime, and there is a way of living in times of war in times of war. There are many rogue methods in the city and the countryside. It seems natural, those people are like the wild rough under the cliffs and rocks, although they are called Not lush, but still alive anyway.

The battle on the north-south front was suddenly tense, and only Cao Ning could contain it. The battle had already started. At this time, he could not be moved no matter what, so he could only watch Cao Ning grow bigger in the army. The Northern Prince seemed to be holding a vicious dog to fight a group of people. He didn't let go, and he didn't let go. There was no other way, so he desperately ordered people to collect all kinds of elixir from the people, and only asked Cao Zhongkun not to let go of his life at this juncture.

Beidou Lu Yaoguang and Gu Tianxuan accompanied the army, and the remaining two, Shen Tianshu and Tong Kaiyang, were ordered by the Eastern Palace of the Northern Dynasty to move non-stop between the houses of the major rivers and lakes.

Some people from small families sought shelter everywhere, and there were those who were desperately ill and went to the doctor, but they didn't even have a face, and even the big devil was willing to defect.

This "big devil" deserves a little more detail.

Today's Central Plains martial arts is the most evil, and it is no longer the old people who are living and dead.

In the 22nd year of Jianyuan, Ding Kui died outside Yongzhou City, and Mu Xiaoqiao and Feng Feihua disappeared from the scene. It is living, the mountain of living and dead has come to an end.

And a man who wears an iron mask all the year round has become famous.

This person never revealed his real name and surname, and others didn't know that he was a teacher or old school, but it seemed that he jumped out of the stone fèng out of thin air, and suddenly appeared and killed the Quartet.

He claimed to be "the real person of Qinghui", so his martial arts skills were extremely high and his methods were vicious.

The Iron Masked Demon likes to be curious. As soon as he was born, he first took care of Ding Kui, the master of Xuanwu who had done many evils, and then captured the mountain of living and dead.

Before this news could make the haters from all over the world feel like their enemies, everyone discovered that the Iron Masked Demon was better than the previous four.

Gradually, people stopped mentioning the Four Sages who were in the throes of blood and rain, and changed their personal hatreds after dinner.

In the blink of an eye, it was another three years.

In the 25th year of Jianyuan, the Mid-Autumn Festival has just passed.

For some reason, Jinan Prefecture has had so much rain this year. The heavy rain has been falling day and night for a day and a night. The ground is soaked with cold rain. leaves have fallen in a thick layer.

Although Jinan Prefecture belongs to the boundary of the Northern Dynasty, it is still peaceful now.

Over the years, those who have brains and jobs have come up with the idea of ​​making money in a national disaster. Many daring people who know a little about the methods of the rivers and lakes have started to trade from the south to the north, selling everything, food, cloth, knives, guns and ironware... and even For things like private salt, medicinal materials, and other things, as long as the road is safe, some ordinary things can often be sold for sky-high prices after walking around like this, and the profits are high enough to make people take risks.

In order to avoid the war, these traders usually travel along the east coast, and most of them pass through Jinan, where a market gradually emerged as the times require.

When going out, it is nothing more than chatting with people like "Chechuandianjiao", so all the big merchants who have come to the fore have some connections with Xingjiao Gang. There is a "Fortune Inn" in Jinan Prefecture, which is originally Xingjiao Gang. The next hacker shop, unexpectedly, in the past few years, all the VIP customers with "bat orders" have settled down, so that they are greeted and sent every day, and they are busier than other serious business people, and they are dizzy. In the first place, I can't think of cheating people anymore. Over time, it has been cleaned up by qiáng, and it has become a place to do serious business, and it has also expanded a small building.

In the evening of this day, a very handsome horse came in the rain, stopped at the door with a neigh, flicked its mane, and shook off a string of water droplets, and it barked twice triumphantly.

The shop assistant was quite discerning, and hurriedly picked up the bamboo umbrella and went out to say hello: "Guests can't live in the hotel? There are still vacancies!"

The man on the horse was wearing a bamboo hat and holding a long knife in his hand.

Only then did the shop assistant realize that the person who came was actually a young woman, most of her face was hidden under the hat, only a slightly sharp chin was exposed. Showing a beautiful earlobe, just a silhouette, you know that she is not ugly.

The shop assistant looked at her secretly while leading the horse. Seeing that she was carrying a knife, he was not afraid, and greeted cheerfully, "Woman has a hard journey, but she brought a bat order? If you have our bat order, food and lodging will be 30% cheaper. ."

The female guest had a meal. She didn't expect the walking gang here to be so strange. She actually started a business with great fanfare. She couldn't help but tilt her head and asked, "What?"

When she tilted her head, the second shopkeeper could see her face clearly, and said in her heart, "How handsome." The smile on her face became three-pointed.

A bunch of big hooligans were complied with.

The female guest smiled and raised her hand, a red shadow flashed in her palm, revealing a five-bat print made of agate.

"Five bats!" The shop assistant was taken aback, and immediately knew that the person who came here must have a deep connection with the Xingjiao Gang, so he hurriedly bent his waist down and said, "Please come in, please! If you have anything, you can send it at any time. What do you want to eat? You can also order it at will, if we don’t have it at home, we can ask the younger ones to go to the street and buy it for you.”

The female guest, however, waved her hand and said, "Don't bother like that", then walked in the door, found a small corner by the door and sat down, facing the door, as if to wait for someone.

The Hongyun Inn was quite lively, the lobby was almost full, and a few joggers were about to practice their flying scuds.

The female customer casually ordered a bowl of hot noodle soup. She was obviously hungry. When the noodles came, she immersed herself in the steaming white steam. There are many merchants here, and the stench of copper is very strong. With just a few words, they can turn back to the Aduwu, and each swears at their own money. I don’t know if it’s true or not. It sounds like every family has a golden mountain.

Suddenly, a middle-aged man with a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks at the adjacent table said, "I don't know if you have heard of it. A while ago, I had an old friend who was a cloth dealer. I came across 'that' when I was walking on the business road."

As he spoke, he gestured with his eyes.

Someone whispered: "Iron Masked Demon?"

The female guest who was drinking soup paused, turned her head to look over, and said, "What...Isn't the Iron Masked Demon in the Mountain of Living Dead? Why did it come to the east?"

The sharp-faced man saw that it was a beautiful girl who asked the question, so he talked more and deliberately showed off his knowledge, saying: "Girl, think about it, the devil has raised a lot of thugs, but he doesn't give birth, so what to eat? The living and the dead are dead. The mountain has long been inaccessible, and there is no place to fight for robbery. For many years since the war, the land and water routes have been blocked. Now I'm here again... Well, this person also knows the reason why wool can't be stabbed at one end."
