More than ten days later, Zhang Huishu only copied less than half of it, because when he copied the book he couldn’t help thinking about the content inside. He sometimes got up and walked around when he saw doubts. Feeling chaotic when copying down, I will become anxious.
In these days, he devoted himself wholeheartedly to practice and sword practice, not to be disturbed by external mundane affairs, and constantly talking with the sages, he felt that he had gained a lot of improvement.
On this day, he was walking outside the cave, trying to make his mind sober, and saw Yun Dou walking quickly toward this side.
Yun Dou was slow and lazy on weekdays, and suddenly walking so fast, Zhang Hui knew at a glance that Yun Dou must be looking for him.
Yun Dou approached, looked up at Zhang Hui, took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Zhang Hui: "I have a letter from you, hurry up and see, who is looking for you!"
When Zhang Hui heard the letter, the first thing he thought of was his father, because he often imagined his father coming back to Lushan to find him, or asking someone for him.
But afterwards, I thought it was more likely to be a letter from his master.
He saw that the handwriting on the envelope did not look like Gou Xin, thinking that Gou Xin might have deliberately asked someone to write the envelope on behalf of him, so as not to reveal his whereabouts.
As soon as he saw the handwriting in the letter, he immediately recognized that it was indeed a letter from Gou Xin.
"How about it? Is it your master?" Yun Dou could guess what Zhang Hui looked like.
Zhang Hui nodded: "Yes, my master asked me to go to Luyang City the day after tomorrow. He wants to meet me. Judging from the tone of the letter, it seems that there is something important."
After Yun Dou left, Zhang would read the letter again and again. He had a bad feeling that something went wrong with Gou Xin!
Two days later, Zhang Hui came to Luyang City and found the inn agreed by Gou Xin in his letter.
There are not many guests in this inn, and it is very inconspicuous in the city of Luoyang, and Gou Xin can understand it by putting a few marks on the letter, and he quickly found it. A tacit understanding formed.
When Zhang Hui arrived, he knocked on the door a few times, and Gou Xin was able to hear that it must be Zhang Hui.
He opened the door to Zhang Hui, quickly closed the door, and led Zhang Hui in.
At this time, Gou Xin looked thinner than when he was in Linshui Town. He wore a very ordinary gray robe with a turban on his head, dressed like a very common Central Plains businessman.
Zhang Hui knelt down towards Gou Xin: "Tui'er kowtows to Master. I wonder if everything is going well for you these days?"
"Get up and talk."
Gou Xin made a calm gesture toward Zhang Hui, motioning him to sit down on the stool next to him.
Zhang Hui saw that Gou Xin's expression was extremely serious, and there was no joy and excitement that his master and apprentice had reunited after a long absence.
When Gou Xin was in Linshui Town, he was still like a gentle old scholar, and now walking outside, there are some vicissitudes in his face, and it does not seem to be a violation of his appearance as a businessman.The Gou Xin that Zhang Hui saw when he was in Linshui Town was always at ease. Before Linshui Town was robbed, Zhang Hui had never seen Gou Xin become so nervous about anything.
Zhang Hui saw Gou Xin's appearance, and began to worry about Gou Xin, and was very afraid to listen to Gou Xin's words.
"Listen well." Gou Xin said without any greetings, and went straight to the topic, "I must confess this matter in person. After my last farewell at the foot of Lushan Mountain, I went to Taihu Lake to find out how Zhou Chuyu explained the ownership of this sword on his deathbed. Yes, I finally found an old servant of their family. The old servant said that she left a last word to the people before she died, and she wanted to give this sword to me.
Now I am going to give this sword to you. I know that you are temporarily unable to keep it, so I buried it under the jujube tree that is fifty steps away from the door of the Shanshu Village Land Temple in the east of Luyang city. One day, you will be able to keep it, and you can take it out for your use..."
"Master!" Zhang Hui heard this with a sudden pain in his heart. He felt that Gou Xin must be in danger, so he came over to explain these things to him, "Don't lie to me, what happened? ?"
Gou Xin patted the palm of his hand on the table, as if he had made some difficult decision, and sighed: "I was going to hide it from you, but for a while, I'm afraid I can't hide it. Huan Chen entered the center. He is a rare visit to the Central Plains, and now he is here, his goal is to catch me, I'm afraid this time I will be more ugly!"
"Ah!" Zhang Hui exclaimed. When he looked at Gou Xin, he saw helplessness in Gou Xin's eyes.
He has long heard of Huan Chen’s reputation. Huan Chen is Ye Xiang’s master and the most frightening among the four great sage envoys, because he is a practitioner who has entered the realm of great enlightenment. Only below the south of the Great Swallow of the North Amen, and Huanchen has a domineering temperament, and he is decisive and does not care about emotions, which is extremely difficult to deal with.
Gou Xin went on to say: "Huan Chen sent his disciple Ye Xiang to the Central Plains to inquire about me, but unfortunately I can't do anything with Ye Xiang's ability. Now Ye Xiang has gone out of the mountain by himself without Huan Chen. , It is said that Ye Xiang died in your hands?"
Zhang Hui also heard that Gou Xin had doubts about the rumor, so he told Gou Xin the whole story of how Ye Xiang died.
After hearing this, Gou Xin sighed: "You can't tell the truth about the matter. It's all spreading outside, saying that Ye Xiang died at the hands of a young Lushan disciple. Huan Chen is a face-saving person, I'm afraid to treat you. I have long held my grudge, you, a young man with such a low level of qualifications, defeated his big disciple. I'm afraid he will meet you when he comes to the Central Plains, but you try to avoid him."
"Master, what do you do?" Zhang Hui knew that if Gou Xin fell into Huan Chen's hands, he would be condemned to be a traitor when he was brought back to Bei Amen. Even if Gou Xin could leave a life, he would definitely be worse off. .What a proud and free person Gou Xin is, how could he stand the detention and ridicule in Bei Amen all his life.
"You don't have to worry about me, I have my own way."
"No, when I get out of the cave, I will go down and help you."
"You can't help me, you can't help me with ten."
Gou Xin said this at random, but Zhang Hui was very disappointed when he heard it. At this moment, he wished that he could get a certain magical medicine or a huge power like the legend, and he could quickly become a rival to Huanchen. .
Seeing the lost look on Zhang Hui’s face, Gou Xin comforted: "Don’t worry, the world is so big, it’s not easy for Huanchen to find me. Besides, he rarely comes to the Central Plains, no matter how great he is, You may not be able to use it at once."
Zhang Hui could hear that Gou Xin was deliberately comforting him. If Gou Xin was really sure to avoid Huan Chen, then he would not be here today.
