Chapter 26 Master and apprentice recognize each other
Huangshan couldn't bear it anymore. With this palm technique and this body technique, who else could do it besides him?
Huangshan plopped down and knelt down on the spot, with tears on his face and choked with sobs: "Master, my disciple is not filial, so you have suffered here for fifteen years, and I did not fulfill my filial piety by your side. Master, my disciple finally found you, you
It makes the disciples think so hard and find it so hard.”
The white-haired man ignored Huangshan at all, but continued to do what he was doing crazily. Huangshan did not stop him, nor did he intend to stop him. After so many years, he should be allowed to vent his anger well.
The white-haired man turned his head and saw Huangshan kneeling there upright. He suddenly slapped him with a palm. His palm stopped half a foot away from Huangshan's forehead. The pain on the white-haired man's face made his pale face look even more painful.
Horrifying and frightening.
"Tell me, what happened next? When Zhu Di broke into the palace, where did Han Santong go? And Mei Yin, where did Mei Laoer go?" The white-haired man's eyes were on fire, and bursts of suffocating murderous aura rushed towards his face.
"After the Battle of Fengyunling, the great uncle lost all hope and became a monk. The last time I heard about his legend was ten years ago. It is said that the great uncle died of depression in Zhongnan Mountain. The second uncle led troops to station in Huai'an. Later, the general Li Jinglong rebelled, and the second uncle
We had no way to recover, so we had to surrender. Five years ago, Zhu Di sent someone to assassinate the second uncle at home."
Huangshan cried every sentence, but he calmly told everything he knew.
"Impossible," the white-haired man waved his hand and roared: "Impossible, do you know who Mei Lao'er is? He is Zhu Yuanzhang's son-in-law and Zhu Di's brother-in-law. How could he kill him? Do you know Mei Lao'er?
How high is your martial arts? If a hundred of you are no match for him, who can kill him?"
Huang Shan burst into tears and said: "Zhu Di pretended to be friendly and ignored the previous grudges, and then a glass of poisonous wine, the second uncle, the second uncle was gone."
"Master, if you have energy, if you have fire, take it out on your disciples."
"Who are you? Who are you? Why are you looking for me? What's the purpose of looking for me?" The white-haired man's veins popped out as he screamed and his emotions were about to be uncontrollable.
"Master, I am Shan'er. Fifteen years ago, Shan'er was in Liao'erwa. Do you really not remember me?"
"Shan'er?" The white-haired man murmured in a low voice, murmuring the name over and over again, and suddenly held his head in his hands, tearing his hair painfully: "If this is the case, then I have spent countless days and nights
What’s the point of living here where people don’t look like humans and ghosts don’t look like ghosts?”
Huangshan didn't dare to answer this question, let alone himself.
After a long, long time, the two of them remained silent.
"Shan'er, how is your master?"
Huangshan finally woke up. He knew that the master was always the master, and the master finally woke up.
"Master, do you recognize your disciple? Master, he misses you all the time. After your accident, Master sighed all day long and often went to your room to be alone. He always made his disciple tidy up and clean your room.
house, but no one else is allowed in."
"Then, where is your master's wife?"
"Before I came here, I just came out from my master's wife. She lived with Wu Si and Wu Han in the countryside not far from here. Later, when people from the Western Regions came to snatch the military documents, senior brother Pei Yun died in order to protect his wife. Wu Si and Wu Han
I went to Henan with all the uncles from Liujiazhai. Master, Master, she came back out of the world in anger. I don’t know where she went. I’m sorry Master.
Fu, this disciple is at fault for not protecting his wife, junior brothers and sisters properly."
"Wusi? Wuhan?" The white-haired man murmured: "They were all so young at that time."
It turns out that the white-haired man is Xi Zhen, who died holding Guan Tong in the Fengyun Ridge battle fifteen years ago. I didn't expect that he was still alive, but I didn't know why he became like this.
"Master" Huang Shan asked timidly and tentatively: "Why have you been here for fifteen years? How have you spent these fifteen years?"
Unexpectedly, Xi Zhen became furious again and said: "Why are you asking these questions? Fifteen years, it turns out to be fifteen years. Tell me why you came here."
Huangshan thought he shouldn't ask, so he muttered: "After bidding farewell to my master's wife, I walked westward and passed the Duanya Village in front of me. The villagers in Duanya Village always thought that ghosts lived here, so I came down."
"Ghost?" Xi Zhen murmured for a while, and suddenly laughed sadly: "Really. Look at me now, I don't look like a human or a ghost, so what am I if I'm not a ghost in their eyes?"
"They said that ghosts can be heard crying here every month. Later, some people saw ghosts on the edge of the cliff. Since then, people often fall off the cliff and die. Master, you..."
Huangshan didn't dare to ask anymore, because there were some things that he didn't dare to imagine.
"Humph! That's why they deserve to die," Xi Zhen said angrily, "They have something evil in their hearts."
Huangshan didn't know why the master said this, but obviously, he didn't want to know why. What he was thinking about now was how to take the master away from this place.
"Master, these are not important. What is important is that my apprentice has met you and I want to take you out of this place."
When Xi Zhen heard Huangshan say that he would take him away from here, a flash of excitement flashed on his face, but then he felt a burst of loneliness and panic.
"Where can I go after leaving here?" Xi Zhen murmured in a low voice.
Upon seeing this, Huang Shan immediately rushed over, carried Xi Zhen on his back and said: "From today on, the disciple is the master's legs. As long as the master wants to go, the disciple will carry the master on his back."
Xi Zhen didn't resist. In the past fifteen years, he had fantasized countless times that someone could take him out of this hellish place. But if he really left here, he would be at a loss. He didn't know where else he could go or what else he could do.
What to do? Fifteen years later, everything has changed, and people have also changed. Should he continue to stay here as a ghost or return to the human world? Maybe at this moment, he himself can't figure it out.
One foot deep and one foot shallow, Huangshan carried Xi Zhen on his back. Although it was a bit difficult, he was still very excited. Xi Zhen also subconsciously told Huangshan how to go. After all, he was the most familiar with the environment here. Therefore, the two of them also
In this tacit understanding, Huangshan was very happy when he came to the cliff of the stream and saw that the rope was still there.
"Master, please hold me tight, and we will go up together."
"Shan'er, I'm very happy to be my master. You should go up first. This rope can't bear the weight of the two of us. What's more, the cliff is a hundred feet high. Your skills can't support you and me going up together."
Facing the whispering stream, Xi Zhen murmured: "Fifteen years ago, if it weren't for this stream, I wouldn't be here, and I wouldn't survive. It's like an old friend of mine, and now it's like
I'm really reluctant to leave you."
Huangshan knew that the master had not yet thought about how to face the future life. He did not even know what else he could do after he got out. If he really went up first
If he goes, maybe he will continue to stay here.
"Then let's not go up from here. Let's walk along the cliff and find another way out. Master, what do you think?"
Xi Zhen shook his head and said: "Impossible, no one is more familiar with this place than me. This cliff stretches for dozens of miles, and at the end is a higher cliff. There are ropes here, and currently this is the best place."
"Master, I will tie the rope to your body. With your arm strength and internal strength, it will be easy to climb up the cliff. In any case, master, you have to climb up the cliff first."
The reason why Huangshan asked Xi Zhen to go up the cliff first was because he was worried that if he went up first, the master would continue to stay here. So he quickly took off his belt and tied one end to Xi Zhen's body and the other to the end of the rope.
Xi Zhen is very conflicted. He is eager to see the light of day again and return to the human world, but he is also very afraid. What kind of face does he have when he looks like a human or a ghost?
As a last resort, Huang Shan hurriedly knelt down and said, "Disciple, I beg the master to punish me."
Xi Zhen was surprised and said: "Did you do anything wrong? How can I punish you?"
There are only two of them here, and they are also trying their own masters. There are no secrets that cannot be told.
"Master, my disciple lied, but I want to tell you everything now. I also have a very important purpose for my trip to the west this time. After the fire in the palace of Emperor Jianwen of your sworn brother, it is not that his life or death is unknown, but
Hidden in Yunnan. This disciple's trip is to go to Yunnan under orders to protect Emperor Wen from making a comeback."
Xi Zhen's eyes suddenly lit up, his lips trembled for a while, and he asked after a long time: "Shan'er, are you serious about what you said?"
Huang Shan burst into tears and said, "How dare I deceive my master? But now the emperor is sending people everywhere to find the whereabouts of your sworn brother, and his situation is even more dangerous."
Xi Zhen stopped talking, grabbed the rope with both hands, roared loudly, and instantly followed the rope up the cliff like an arrow. After a while, he only saw a white dot.
Half an hour later, the rope was thrown down again, and Huangshan grabbed the rope and climbed up.
While climbing, Huangshan imagined how he would take his master to Yunnan, what would happen when he reunited with Emperor Jianwen, and what would happen when he reunited with his wife, junior brothers and sisters. All of this
Everything went through Huang Shan's mind. In short, he was still excited except excitement.
When they reached the top of the cliff, Huangshan heard a loud noise and was startled: "Oops, maybe the master and the villagers have met. If the master didn't stop, wouldn't the villagers suffer?"
With a loud roar, Huangshan soared into the sky. Sure enough, a group of villagers holding various farm tools in their hands surrounded the master in a semicircle on the edge of the cliff, shouting that they would beat the master to death. After all, the villagers saw Xi Zhen's
This strange appearance made him think it was a ghost at the bottom of the cliff.
Xi Zhen was sitting on the edge of the cliff, arranging his white hair leisurely. The villagers dared to speak out, but they surrounded Xi Zhen but did not dare to go up.
Fortunately, Huangshan appeared in time and offered some kind words, so the villagers realized that Huangshan was this man's apprentice who had been separated for fifteen years. Knowing that ghosts would never cause trouble here again, the villagers gradually relaxed their vigilance, and everyone knew about it.
Huangshan was a chivalrous young man, and they all dispersed soon after.
Huangshan gave Daniel a large amount of silver and asked Daniel to find a house for him and his master. He and his master would stay in the village for a while, and he could not move forward until his master was well.
