On Luoshui, Puhu holds the boat with one hand and catches the knife with one hand.
This scene was seen by many people, so maybe it won't be long before this person's name will start to spread in the Jianghu of the Central Plains. But Pu Hu doesn't care about these things, if he is willing to become a world-famous person, he would have already been. What he cares about is who is the man in black who made the knife.
Puhu said to Tan Qingge that he had seen many files in the Ouchi Guard Office, and as the official of the Great Sui Dynasty who had penetrated into the deepest yamen in the Jianghu, the Ouchi Guard Office was naturally familiar with the masters in the Jianghu. There is a book of famous people in the Jianghu in the Ouchi Guard Office, which records the great practitioners since the founding of the Sui Dynasty, and there are countless sects. In the history of more than a hundred years, basically all the gangsters who appeared have been recorded, so this book of who's who in the Jianghu is one foot thick.
Among them, countless people have become famous with knives.
"what's on your mind?"
Tan Qingge looked at Puhu who was leaning on the side of the boat in a daze and asked.
"Think about who that person is."
Pu Hu frowned slightly: "I once read the who's who of Jianghu in Ouchi's bodyguard office. In recent decades, there are not a few people in the world who are famous for using knives in the world. The left-handed sword Luo Hetu is said to have been in the red sleeve move, and it is rumored to be dead. There is also a thunder roll in the northeast. It is rumored that once the thunder roll is unfolded, it will open and close endlessly like a thunderstorm. Among the roads in the northeast I couldn't find an opponent, but because of this, this person should not be Lei Roll, because his sword movement is not simple and direct enough."
"In the Jiangnan Tonggu Academy, there used to be a great practitioner who used a sword to prove the Tao. It is said that he went to the most bitter and cold place in the extreme south to practice. It took him 26 years to practice a sword. It sounds incredible. He only practiced one sword in six years, and everyone who heard about it laughed at him for being stupid, but who knew that he would kill all over the country with just one sword when he came back... Not long ago, the old dean went south and broke his sword His saber, I just don't know if this person is dead or not... However, his saber intent is extremely cold, so the man in black can't be him."
"Who matters?"
Talk about Qingge and ask.
"important."
Pu Hu nodded: "As long as I can deduce his identity, I can find out who is behind the scenes."
Tan Qingge was silent, and then asked very seriously: "You were able to catch his strongest blow under the circumstances at that time, which means that this person is not your opponent. If he appears again next time, you can catch him and ask if you can catch him." Do you know?"
"You are stupid in the Martial Arts Academy."
Puhu smiled and said: "The general often says that I am stupid, but in my opinion you are the real one. That knife is not the strongest knife at all. Let me tell you, the more powerful the practitioner , When confronting an enemy, you will not use the strongest move as soon as you take the first move, even when you are desperate. Only when you are sure that you are definitely not an opponent, you will fight desperately."
"Then why did he retreat?"
Talk about Qingge and ask.
"Because I'm on the shore, and I'm stepping on the ground."
Puhu replied very flatly and proudly.
"As long as I stand on the ground, no one can make me feel intimidated except for the general. The man in black is very strong, but he knows that it is not so easy to kill me. The best outcome is that both sides will suffer. That's why he backed off."
Tan Qingge nodded, as if he didn't want to get involved with Puhu's thoughts.
"You think, I won't bother you anymore."
"Why didn't you draw your sword while you were in the boat?"
Puhu asked suddenly.
Tan Qingge looked down at the long sword at his waist, hesitated for a while, and then suddenly reached out to untie the sword: "This thing is just a souvenir. I only have two friends in the Martial Arts Academy, the cook and the old man." , Although the cook often scolds me, I know he is not a bad person. Although the old man often calls me a fool, I know he is a good person. I take all the things these two people gave me with me. "
"oh?"
Pu Hu asked: "What did that guy give you?"
Tan Qingge was silent for a while, then handed the tassel hanging on the hilt of the sword to Puhu, only then did Puhu realize that there was a very small piece of jade pendant on the tassel, which was red in color, so it was hard to spot if you didn't pay attention. Tied together with the red silk thread, it seems to be a mess of silk.
Pu Hu took it over and looked at it, then his eyes suddenly changed.
"This is... a good thing."
"ah?"
Tan Qingge was stunned for a moment: "Very valuable?"
"The value is not in money, but it is not an exaggeration to say that it is worth a lot."
Puhu seemed to be recalling something, his eyes were a little erratic, he pointed to the crescent moon engraved on the red jade: "This is the symbol of Yueyingtang. The entire rivers and lakes are under the feet of this sect, and that is the Wanjian Hall. Because Wan Xingchen, the master of the Wanjian Hall, created a sword that breaks ten thousand spells, everyone in the rivers and lakes will respect him as the number one in the Central Plains."
"But before the establishment of Wanjiantang, the most influential in the world was Yueyingtang..."
After pondering for a while, Puhu continued: "Walking on the Jianghu road, look up at the moon shadow... This is the most widely circulated sentence in the rivers and lakes hundreds of years ago, which means that the Moon Shadow Hall will always be superior. At the beginning, the status of the Moon Shadow Hall was the same as that of the Moon Shadow Hall. Afterwards, the status of Wan Jiantang was the same. But later, it was said that Bai Shenzhou, the last master of Moon Shadow Hall, was defeated by Wan Xingchen, and it was said that Wan Xingchen broke his sword, and he stabbed himself in the heart with the broken sword and died."
"you mean?"
Tan Qingge asked with a look of surprise: "Is this piece of red jade something from Moon Shadow Hall?"
"Nine times out of ten it is."
Pu Hu's eyes were confused for a moment: "It seems that there are indeed hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the Yanwu Academy. That guy is not a simple person. Hehe... I thought I knew enough about Sui, Chang'an City, and Yanwu Academy. shallow."
Tan Qingge looked at him, as if he didn't understand what he was talking about.
"When I get back to Chang'an City, I really have to visit that cook you mentioned."
Puhu smiled, but there was something different in his eyes.

Yongzhou City
Xiang Qingniu opened his arms and made a chest expansion movement, with an intoxicated expression on his face. Fang Jie squinted his eyes and looked at him, smiled and asked, "Why, is this raising breasts?"
Xiang Qingniu snorted: "Didn't you notice that I've lost weight recently?"
"If you eat more sugar, you will still lose weight... There is a disease called diabetes. As the name suggests, you can attract bees to collect honey when you pee on the ground, and then you will be useless."
Fang Jie said.
"Don't eat."
Xiang Qingniu was silent for a while and said: "Although I'm used to it, since it's not a good habit, let's give it up. Recently, I suddenly understood a truth, this person, he has to be kind to himself. A lifetime is said to last for a hundred years. To put it short, isn’t it a matter of day and night?”
"You're not right..."
Fang Jie said: "According to your theory, shouldn't you do what you want?"
Xiang Qingniu was stunned for a moment, then smiled embarrassingly: "I am Daoist, and I understand too many principles, so it is inevitable to be a bit confused when I say it. Don't talk about it, let's pee first..."
After finishing speaking, he stood on the city wall of Yongzhou City, lifted his Taoist robe and unbuttoned his trousers, and fired cannons under the city wall.
Fang Jie glanced at it and sang with an unusually pure voice: "The little magpie is building a new house, and the little bee is busy collecting honey..."
"roll."
Xiang Qingniu scolded with a smile: "It's so cool to shake three times after urinating."
"Juexiao, there is something I've always wanted to ask you... A great practitioner suddenly appeared in Chang'an City. The person who can beat Luo Yao is not like a human being... Who could this person be? Suddenly appeared, as if It's like a ghost. Master has lived in seclusion in Chang'an City for more than a hundred years, if there is such a powerful practitioner, it is impossible for Master not to know."
Fang Jie shook his head: "I know, but I may not be able to say it."
"Not even telling me?"
Xiang Qingniu pouted.
"Then tell me, does my second senior brother know?"
"Should know..."
Fang Jie sighed: "Now I can understand a little bit why your second senior brother left Chang'an City so easily and never even went back. He didn't go back until Emperor Tianyou was dying and the Great Sui collapsed. Luo Yaobing encircled Chang'an, and he was still chasing and killing King Dalun Ming. He didn't seem to be worried about Chang'an City, nor about the world of the Yang family... Or, he had already reached the level that you and I can't understand, and he had already reached a state where he had no respect for the Yang family. I don't care anymore. Or, he knew from the beginning to the end, the unbreakable secret of Chang'an City."
"yes… "
Xiang Qingniu said slowly: "It seems that there are many secrets that only the master and the second senior brother know. The first senior brother doesn't know, the third senior brother doesn't know, and I don't know either."
"Speaking of senior brother..."
Xiang Qingniu froze for a moment: "I don't know where that old Niubi is now."
"In the grassland."
Fang Jie replied: "I sent someone to make a deal with the northern barbarians, exchanging food for leather and horses, so I know that there is an experienced Taoist in the northern barbarian tribe, and nine out of ten it is your elder brother."
"not dead?"
Xiang Qingniu smiled: "It's good if you don't die... The Taoist sect now asks me to support the facade, I am really sorry for the reputation of the first sect in the Central Plains."
Just as he was talking, he suddenly raised his finger and pointed to a person walking this way on the official road outside the city: "Hey, why is there a man in a Taoist robe? This is a disciple and grandson of a Taoist temple in my Taoist sect."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was stunned, and then spat: "Damn... he's a big guy."

Jiangnan
Tongu Academy
The high tower symbolizing the status of the academy was split by Wan Xingchen's sword. On the surface, it seemed that it just made the academy less beautiful. There is still an endless stream of students who come to the academy to study, and most of them are talented people from the south of the Yangtze River. There were still people coming and going in the front yard of the academy, and the students in moon-white Confucian shirts gathered together to talk and laugh.
At this moment, someone shouted outside the gate of the front yard.
"Luo Tu, the Luo Family Army, pay a visit to the seniors of Tonggu Academy!"
The students looked outside the gate following the sound, and found a young man in a dark blue brocade jacket standing at the gate with his hands behind his back. The man looked to be in his twenties, with a tall and slender figure. Although it was far away, the students all felt a bit of chill from this person.
Therefore, they subconsciously dare not answer.
"How did the little prince come to my Tonggu Academy?"
The person who answered was an elderly man who seemed to be in his sixties or seventies, wearing clean cloth clothes and a pair of cloth shoes with white soles and black tops. There is a mole between the eyebrows of this person, which is black and shiny, but it does not affect his appearance. On the contrary, because of this mole, it gives people a sense of majesty.
"May I ask you are?"
Luo Tu asked.
"My name is Li Qingfeng."
The old man smiled and replied: "After Dong Qing died, someone asked me to be the dean of Tonggu Academy. But I dare not do it... So, now I am just the porter of Tonggu Academy. It is up to me to receive visitors. Within minutes."
"Why don't you dare to do it?"
Luo Tu asked.
"Dean is dying so fast..."
The old man still smiled gently: "Who has nothing to do to kill the old man in the gatehouse?"
Luo Tu nodded, then took three steps back, suddenly knelt down, and solemnly kowtowed: "I want to learn art."
"Academic?"
The old man was slightly stunned, and then laughed heartily: "Tonggu Academy has always been the academy with the highest tuition fees, none of them. There is a Martial Arts Academy in the capital that also has very high tuition fees, so there has always been a saying that Nantong Ancient Academy was trained in martial arts. This is not the case. It's because the tuition fees in these two places are so damn expensive...how much tuition do you plan to pay?"
Luo Tu raised his head, and replied solemnly: "Thousands of miles, 400,000 troops!"
