When the sword comes out of Emei, I will be the front

Chapter 44 Recruiting a new disciple and meeting an old friend

"茳蓠? 茳蓠!" Master Miejie muttered twice, nodded, shook the baby, and coaxed: "Disciple, you will be called Zhou Chancoi from now on, do you like it?"

The baby girl pouted and burst into tears.

Master Miejie was filled with joy, but suddenly felt disappointed. He patiently coaxed her a few times, and her crying became louder. Her patience was suddenly exhausted, and she frowned and said, "Eh? Is it possible that this child has no destiny with my Emei?"

Ye Guhong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The way Miejie held the child was similar to holding a dog. He put his hands under the child's armpits and held it in front of him, but he still wanted to shake her. The baby's neck was soft. He shook her head and shook her. He is about to fly away, so why not cry loudly?
  He quickly stretched out his hand to take it and said, "Master, let me hold Junior Sister."

In his previous life, he had a lot of information. He had never eaten pork and had seen pigs running away. He was also carefully taught how to hold a child by the young woman from the work unit. Once he got started, he suddenly showed a difference:
  The baby's head and neck pillow rested on the crook of his left arm, and his left palm supported the baby's butt. With one hand, he held the baby comfortably, and with his right hand, he took a small Ganoderma lucidum and made a toy to entertain the baby.

The baby girl stopped crying almost immediately, started laughing, and even raised her hand to grab the Ganoderma lucidum.

"Oh!" Monk Peng was beaming when he saw it. He patted Ye Guhong and said, "Little brother, I didn't expect that you, as a senior brother, are destined to be with this child. In the future, please take care of her in the mountain. I care for this little junior sister more than you." She's only a few years younger, maybe she will grow up and become your wife in the future."

Miejie felt more and more that this baby girl had no connection with Emei.

Monk Peng waved again and called the fat young woman holding the baby girl to him: "Master Tai, this girl is also a poor person. Her husband's family is from a wealthy family in the local area. They are good at doing good deeds. However, they are unwilling to cooperate with the county magistrate to exploit the local area." , the dog officer found an excuse to harm the whole family. When my brothers and I heard about it, we rushed to rescue them a step too late. It was a pity that there were more than ten people in the family, and she was the only one who survived. I just asked her to be a wet nurse for the child. "

Miejie said to the woman: "Mount Emei is a remote place, are you willing to go?"

The woman nodded repeatedly and said: "The more remote the place, the fewer Tatars there are. I am willing!"

Miejie said with relief: "That's all, since you are willing to go, you can still take care of this child on the way."

Although Monk Peng didn't get much money from this trip, he made good arrangements for Zhou Ziwang's orphan. He was satisfied, bid farewell to Miejie, and roared away with the leaders.

Miejie did not stop and led the convoy forward. After two or three days, he crossed the Huanghe River and continued for several days before entering the Dabie Mountains.

This mountain range stretches from east to west and spans several provinces. Not to mention today, even in the past peaceful and prosperous times, there were still bandits who occupied the mountains as kings and robbed homes and homes.

However, in the past few days, the story of the battle at Fuguang Mountain has been revealed. The four words Guanyin of Blood Sea can stop a child from crying at night. Which king is so tired of living that he dares to ask for death in front of him?
  Therefore, in this vast mountain, where bears hid, tigers hid, and jackals roamed far away, everyone passed through without any worries.

On this day, the motorcade arrived at Luotian County at the foot of the Dabie Mountains. As they came out of the mountain road, they saw several lean men jumping up and running away like flying away.

Miejie sneered and said: "It has only been a few days of peace, but something strange has happened again. It seems that the Dabie Mountain is too high, and it has blocked all the smell of blood on the other side of the mountain."

At this time, Fang Wen and Fang Wu were already recovering from their injuries. After hearing the words, the two brothers each rode a mule, picked up a golden melon and hammered it in their hands, and turned it around, holding the non-existent beard with their hands. He bared his teeth and shouted, "Don't be afraid, aunt. Let him come with thousands of troops. My two nephews are here to ensure that nothing happens to aunt!"

When they were seriously injured, Miejie thought these two nephews were cute. Later, as their injuries improved, the two talked nonsense more and more, especially they loved to pester Ye Guhong to talk about ancient times. Now Miejie sees them. The two of them got annoyed and yelled, "Go back."

The two brothers said dejectedly: "I will obey the general's order!" Dragging the hammer backwards, they got off the mules and got on the cart, and sat on the left and right behind Mrs. Song to cheer up. Ye Guhong smiled and said: "Brothers, why should you be depressed? My master is afraid that you will get hurt, so you must know his good intentions."

Fang Wen looked around and said in a low voice: "Didn't I understand the deductions from the three previous chapters? Our old Fang family's golden melon hammering technique first appeared in the Beihai general Wu Anguo at the end of the Han Dynasty, and was later passed down to Liangshan Heroes Golden Leopard Soup Long, God's jealous magic has never really made a fortune. Now by chance, it has been passed on to our three brothers. We must let the world know how powerful this hammering technique is! Now that your master and my aunt won't let us fight, there will be a chance later. , you can use the hammer technique to knock a few people to death, so that my brother can have a good time."

It turned out that these two brothers were very sincere. They fell in love with Ye Guhong at the first sight, so they were unsuspecting and pulled him to do some literary and martial arts. Unknowingly, they actually taught Ye Guhong all their hammering skills!
  Fortunately, Mrs. Fang is not a petty person. Seeing her two children being affectionate with Ye Guhong and being her sister-in-law's beloved disciple, she doesn't feel guilty about it. Master Miejie was even more indifferent. She didn't even think highly of her family's hammering skills, so she was eager for Ye Guhong to learn from her.

Fang Wu nodded repeatedly: "That's right, brother, today it's all up to you to make money!" After saying that, he held his hammer in both hands and handed it over solemnly.

Ye Guhong had no choice but to take it in his hand and said with a smile: "Okay, if there is an enemy, I will use the Fang family hammer to beat him!"

Before he finished speaking, the hoofs of the horses struck the ground, and several tall war horses were seen in the distance, sweeping out from the county town. Ye Guhong was stunned and quickly ran to Miejie: ​​"Master, it seems they are Tatar cavalry!"

Miejie looked at it for a moment and shook his head: "It's not like that! His riding skills are not good enough. Haha, it doesn't matter who he is, the soldiers will come to stop him!"

As he spoke, the galloping horses were approaching. On one of the horses in the middle, a man shouted: "Master, my junior Xu Shouhui has been waiting here for many days. Brother Guhong, you really want to die as my brother."

Miejie and Ye Guhong looked at each other with expressions of surprise and surprise. Ye Guhong grabbed the mule's belly and rushed out of the team, shouting: "Xu Shouhui, Brother Xu, how did you get here?"

"How did I come here?" Xu Shouhui laughed loudly: "The ancestral home of my old Xu family is in Luotian County, Qizhou. The Tatars were provoked the previous time, so my father ordered the brothers to retreat into the lake. He also ordered me to go home to recuperate from my injuries. I have recovered from my injuries in the past few days. I was about to go back to help my father when I heard that the master and his disciples were making a big statement in Fuguang Mountain. My master said that most of you have to come through Luotian, so I ordered the idle men in the city to guard this mountain pass every day, and if they saw any monks, they would notify me immediately."

As he spoke, he jumped off his horse, saluted Miejie first, and then hugged Ye Guhong, making them affectionate.

Then he pointed to a person standing behind him and said, "Master, brother, this is my master, Mr. Zou."

Ye Guhong looked around and saw that the man was in his [-]th or [-]th grade, with splayed eyebrows, a beard, and a sparse expression. Then he heard Miejie say: "You are the Dragon Tail Sword Immortal?"

The man said: "Friends, this is just nonsense. I am Zou Pusheng, who makes a living by telling fortunes and blacksmithing. He studied under Master Peng Yingyu."

Miejie said curiously: "I only met Monk Peng a few days ago. He seems to be not much older than you. Besides, you have Quanzhen swordsmanship. Did you learn it from Monk Peng?"

Zou Pusheng shook his head and said with a smile: "There is no priority in learning, the master is the teacher. I have another master in martial arts. As for joining Master Peng's disciple, it was only in recent years. What I learned from him was more about leading troops in battle, resisting the Mongols." Yuan’s university questions.”

Xu Shouhui interjected: "Master, if my master hadn't pointed it out last time, I wouldn't have known that what you taught me was the Quanzhen swordsmanship."

Hearing this, Zou Pusheng shook his head and smiled bitterly. Ye Guhong and his master looked at each other with curiosity.
