Moonlight and wind

"Come! It's time to eat!" Ziyun opened the last cell door of the dungeon in the back mountain. "Today is New Year's Day. The hall master specially ordered a meal to be prepared for you, a special person, so that you can have a good New Year's Day."

Seeing that the swordsman was sitting cross-legged with his back to Ziyun, he said, "You are very diligent. Being here has not hindered your practice!"

Ziyun walked to the opposite side of the swordsman with the food box in his hand, squatted down and was about to put the food box on the ground. Ziyun glanced at the swordsman who was meditating next to him.

Suddenly, Ziyun raised his head abruptly, stretched out two fingers and placed them under the swordsman's nose to test, then withdrew his hand, locked the prison door and walked out without saying a word.

In less than an incense stick of time, several people were already standing in the dungeon, surrounding the meditating swordsman.

"How long has it been?" "Let me see." The Third Hall Master Shan Zixiao squatted beside the swordsman and put one hand on the swordsman's wrist. "It should be an hour." The Third Hall Master observed again, "He died of severed meridians!"

"Ziyun!" Shan Tianxiang shouted. "He's here!" "He was like this when you came?" "Yes, Master."

"Is he the only one there?" "Yes, Master." Ziyun recalled, "All the doors of the dungeons were locked."

"Is this severing one's own meridians?" The Second Hall Master raised his hand and blocked his nose with his sleeve. Although the extremely cold mountain top would not cause the swordsman to decay quickly, the Second Hall Master still could not stand the slightest smell.

"From the current perspective, it is indeed self-severing," the Third Hall Master observed for a while, "but this is an illusion."

As he spoke, he led the two hall masters to have a look. "This severing of the meridians will leave marks on the chest." As he spoke, the third hall master opened the swordsman's front, revealing a chest that already had brown spots. "Obviously not. Look here." Shan Zixiao walked around behind the swordsman and took off his shirt. There were several obvious external injuries on his back, each of which was where a meridian was blocked.

"So, someone attacked him from behind." The second hall master nodded, "As expected, the Luohui Sect has a lover. The third brother's medical skills are pretty good. When will he learn from the Immortal Doctor Qingyi?" The second hall master continued to tease him.

"In that case," Shan Tianxiang touched his chin, "the person who came also came from the cliff at the back mountain?" "I guess that's the case." The third hall master agreed.

"Since the Linglong Tower was stolen, the defense of the back mountain has been strengthened," the Second Hall Master moved outside the cell, "taking advantage of the lack of precautions during the New Year's Day, the thieves took advantage of the opportunity."

"Ziyun!" "Hall Master!" "Bring a few disciples and bury the swordsman in the back mountain." After saying that, the three hall masters left the dungeon. Before leaving, the second hall master deliberately touched the door lock, and the follow-up matters were handled by Ziyun.

"Didn't they say there was a martial arts competition to recruit a bride?" Shan Zimo sat under the ring and sipped his tea. "Why hasn't it started yet?"

"My lord," the waiter standing aside poured tea for Shan Zimo, "the martial arts competition to find a bride must be held during the day. There are many temple fairs fifteen days after New Year's Day!" The waiter poured the tea quickly and stood aside with his hands hanging down.

"Who among the girls of our Great Wu Kingdom doesn't want to find a good and handsome man with great martial arts skills? With your character, the girls who want to marry you have to wait in line in the Southern Kingdom!"

"Hey!" Shan Zimo waved his hands, "Keep a low profile! Keep a low profile!" "There will be a fireworks show at Jinxiufang tonight. Young master, why don't you come to watch the martial arts competition tomorrow? It's just right to rush to Jinxiufang now to watch the fireworks show!" The waiter said in Shan Zimo's ear.

"Okay!" Shan Zimo signaled to Shan Boyu, who took out a piece of silver from his purse and said, "Here, this is a reward from the young master!" "Thank you, young master!" The young man hurriedly took the silver with both hands, glanced at the arena, and quickly put it into his lapel.

"Oh, it's unnecessary to come here!" Shan Zimo and Shan Boyu walked towards Jinxiufang again. Before they arrived at Jinxiufang, the fireworks show had already begun. The sky was full of gorgeous fireworks, and the loud noise covered the decadent music in Jinxiufang. The people of Wudu were laughing and screaming.

The two finally squeezed into the crowd and came to a ten-foot-high rack hung with lanterns. The lake around Jinxiufang reflected the lights and fireworks, and was colorful.

Just as everyone was watching intently, the ten-meter-high shelf suddenly tilted and fell into the crowd. People ran out like crazy, but Dan Zimo, who was in front of the shelf, had almost no chance of escaping!

In a panic, Shan Boyu grabbed Shan Zimo, saw an empty space, removed the lantern next to him, and pushed Shan Zimo out!

Shan Zimo jumped out of the shelf and turned back to grab Shan Boyu, but at this time the shelf was about to fall on Shan Boyu!

At the critical moment, a figure flashed from under the shelf. When he looked closely, Shan Boyu had been pulled out of the shelf by the man. At the same time, the shelf full of lanterns fell to the ground!

"Young Master, you are very skilled in martial arts!" Shan Zimo said as he checked if Shan Boyu was injured.

"Young Master," Shan Boyu held Shan Zimo down, "Nothing's wrong!" Shan Boyu smiled innocently and saluted the man, "Thank you for saving me, young master!"

"It's nothing to mention!" "Why don't we go to Jinxiufang and thank the young master!" Shan Zimo had already stretched out his hand and led the man to Jinxiufang. The man had no choice but to follow them into Jinxiufang.

As soon as the man walked into Jinxiufang, the sounds of Yingying and Yanyan suddenly disappeared, and the girls looked at him blankly.

Shan Zimo took him to the private room where they had sat down before. Outside the window, he could still see the shop assistants from Jinxiufang busy hanging the lantern rack, shouting and setting it up again.

"I am Shan Zimo, the young master of Xueying Hall." Shan Zimo saluted.

"I'm from Wudu, Wu Haochen." The man returned the greeting.

"Your surname is Wu?" Shan Zimo felt that this person was not simple. "Are you a relative of the emperor?"

"Young master, you are joking. My last name just happens to be Wu." Wu Haochen waved his hand.

"How good is your martial arts, young master?" Shan Zimo was very interested in the handsome man in front of him, "This man is either my best friend or my enemy!" He thought to himself, maybe I have played too many scripts, so everything I see is a script!

"Your martial arts skills are still weak, so you can only protect yourself." "Sir, you are too modest!" Shan Zimo smiled, "Based on the skills you used to save Bai Yu just now, you must be at least at the level of a martial master, right?" Shan Zimo looked at Shan Bai Yu, who nodded. Wu Haochen only smiled and drank his tea without responding.

"I knew it. How could the young master abandon me on New Year's Eve!" A numbing voice came from outside the private room. The pearl curtain was lifted and Miss Yunfang walked in again.

"Oh! What a lovely young man!" Miss Yunfang walked past Shan Zimo and came to Wu Haochen. She put her arms around his neck skillfully and sat on his lap. Wu Haochen did not resist and took the opportunity to embrace Miss Yunfang in his arms.

This operation made Shan Zimo and Shan Boyu dumbfounded! "Look!" Miss Yunfang turned her head and said to Shan Zimo coquettishly, "Young Master, you should also learn to be more relaxed! I won't eat you!"

Suddenly Miss Yunfang smiled evilly, "Young Master, are you afraid that I will break your pure yang body?" Then she burst into laughter!
