C11 The third episode was a disappointment (3)
"Sigh!" Yu Feng shook his head in distress, and muttered to himself: Forget it, what's there to think about? Today was the first day, so it's better to eat early and rest for the night. Immediately, Yu Feng called over the waiter and instructed: "Brother waiter, please bring some food over. A chicken and a duck, plus a roasted milk pigeon, and five horned wine and some dishes to go with the wine." The waiter replied. After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the food was sent to Yu Feng's room.
Yu Feng gulped down all of the food as if he had lost his temper and stuffed all of the food into his stomach. After that, he rested for a while and Yu Feng spent two hours cultivating, but discovered that he was still unable to meditate.
When he woke up the next day, it was already late in the morning. Yu Feng got up and went downstairs to order some steamed buns and rice porridge, but he was still feeling bored. As he ate, he thought, "I've finally come to the city. After thinking it through, Yu Feng ate hastily and went out on the streets.
Ancient Dingding City was the best place in the Great Han Dynasty for forging weapons, many noble lords and kings had come here to celebrate, there were naturally crowds of people there, the city was bustling with activity. Yu Feng walked on the main street and looked around. He had never been to a big city before, and always followed his father down the mountain to visit friends.
And Yu Chen's friends were all happy to live in a secluded place in the countryside, so at this moment, Yu Feng saw all sorts of things on the streets. After all, Yu Feng had the temperament of a teenager, and trouble always came and went as fast as it could.
Just then, he walked to the entrance of a music shop, which made Yu Feng very happy. In the past ten years, he lived in the Bloodsword Pavilion and had never had any childhood friends his age. Other than practicing his sword, his favorite thing was to listen to Yu Chen play the jade Xiao. He did not know why, but that heavy yet imposing flute music made his heart wave, so he begged Yu Chen to teach him how to play the cave flute.
Yu Feng walked in, only to see the owner of the letter, a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties. The man's face was stiff, but his eyes were bright and spirited, and when Yu Feng walked in, he acted as if he did not see him, and only glanced at Yu Feng, and said with a hoarse voice: "The rules of the small shop, guests can choose among themselves, and at most choose two items, other prices may be suggested."
Yu Feng felt that it was already weird that the owner did not actively entertain customers when he was doing business, but after hearing what he said, Yu Feng felt that it was even more interesting. However, when he thought about what his father had said before, some strange merchants would always test the eyes of the customers, and in their hands, there would usually be some rare goods that could be found.
Yu Feng looked carefully at all the instruments in the shop, and realized that none of them were not of high quality. Although he could not test their timbre, it was not hard to tell just how good their quality was based on their color, materials and their exquisite craftsmanship. But Yu Feng was not moved by it, until he saw the flute and the flute.
The jade white flute was not pure white. Instead, it was milky white with a dragon carved on it. The edge of the dragon eye was black, as though it was crying. He turned his head to the left, his five claws tucked into his abdomen. He didn't show his claws, but instead looked like a deep, loving dragon.
Lying on the left side of the flute was an inky green jade flute. The flute was slightly dull and had a dark color within the blue color. The jade flute did not have many sculptures, but the black color that was naturally brought about by the flute, was as black as ink, and on the flute's body, was the outline of a black phoenix.
Yu Feng was shocked. Dragon's Roar – Phoenix Flute.
"I want this warm jade flute and this black jade flute." Yu Feng said dumbly.
The boss took a glance at Yu Feng, his eyes focused and said lightly: "This is not for sale." Yu Feng panicked and asked: "Why is that?" The boss stared at Yu Feng for a while, then suddenly asked: "I see that you are in your prime, with bright eyes, are you a hero?" Yu Feng was startled, the boss was asking if I know martial arts? He then said, "I don't dare." Then, he continued, "I'm just a nameless person who knows a little about sword arts."
The owner asked again: "Have you heard of Blood Sword Yu Chen and Snow Woman Yu Lin?"
Yu Feng was startled, why did it have to do with his father? Snow Woman Yu Lin, wasn't she the woman my father missed day and night? Just that, he did not know what the owner of the shop was thinking, so he replied immediately: "Blood Sword Yu Chen, a hero of his generation, strong martial arts, fair and square, always helping the weak and helping the weak, this junior has always admired him. As for the snow woman Yu Lin, this junior has heard of a rumour before, that she is the Holy Maiden of the Heaven Gate. "
The owner nodded and sighed, "Ai!" The two of them were originally lovers, how can they be fooled by good fortune. " He paused for a moment before continuing, "Before Yu Chen passed away, I wanted to send the Dragon Roar Phoenix Flute that he placed here to the gates of heaven. You both want it. "
Yu Feng immediately asked: Senior, do you have something to entrust me with?
The owner of the shop revealed an almost imperceptible smile and spoke in a low voice: "Since he is no longer around, the flute is useless and I can't give it to you, but you have to promise me one thing," As he spoke, he took out a brocade box and a pair of jade pendants within it, "This pair of pendants can also be considered as a token of affection for the two of them, I want you to personally deliver them to Yu Lin, the snow woman from the Heaven Gate."
Yu Feng extended his hand to take it seriously, but all of a sudden, he heard something that sounded like thunder in his ears.
"If you are unable to accomplish today's task, I will definitely not forgive you in the future!" Luckily, Yu Chen was enlightened before he passed away, and he calmed his mind for a moment. However, he was still overwhelmed with shock, knowing that the owner of the shop must be a man from the Jianghu, he cupped his hands and asked: "May I ask for Senior's name?"
The owner could not help but be surprised, but he still threw his sleeves and said coldly: "You do not need to know, nor do you need to know. If you feel that you are unable to do so, you can leave. Yu Feng heard and felt that the owner was really strange, he did not know what to do for a while.
[The owner must be my father's good friend before he died. Otherwise, he would never leave such a deep and emotional secret with him. He would never harm me, right?] Gritting his teeth, Yu Feng removed the blood sword from his back and opened the cloth, holding it horizontally in his hand. The blood-red sword had no sheath, and the dark red sword was just right in front of the owner's eyes.
The dark red body of the sword contained a deep-seated murderous aura, as well as a faint trace of sadness.
Yu Feng cupped his hands together and said to the shop owner: "Senior, junior Yu Feng greets you." Yu Feng? Brother Yu Chen's disciple that you regard as your own? " Yu Feng was in a trance when he heard the owner's hoarse voice. Not only Master, but also Father. " Yu Feng was a little lonely as he spoke in a low voice.
A strange look flashed across the owner's eyes, but it disappeared very quickly, and Yu Feng, who was still in a daze, didn't notice it at all. "Alright, you can take it. It's best if you take it." His gentle gaze made Yu Feng's heart warm up.
Putting away the blood sword, then putting away the Dragon Flute and that pair of jade pendants, Yu Feng cupped his hands and said: "Take care, Senior. With that, he bowed deeply, turned around and left. One of his feet had already left the shop when he heard the owner's voice from behind him, "The rivers and lakes are dangerous. You must be careful along the way!" Yu Feng replied, "Senior, don't worry. Thank you for your warning." His other foot also stepped out.
It was already past noon, and Yu Feng had obtained the Dragon Roar Phoenix Lute. He was no longer in the mood to stroll, and returned to the tavern.
Inside the musical instrument store, the owner was standing in front of the door. It took him a while before he managed to pull his thoughts away from the store. He grabbed at his own face, and with a ripping sound, a thin leather mask was torn off, revealing his original appearance. He was Long Tengyue, Yu Chen's sworn brother.
"Brother Yu Chen, you took a good disciple, you have a good son! Brother Yu Chen, that's all I can do to help you, Yu Lin. Yu Lin, hey Yu Feng, I will take care of him. " His actions now were only in hopes of returning Yu Chen's wish.
Back then, in order to save Yu Chen's life, Snow Woman Yu Lin had written and cut off her friendship. Yu Chen was so heartbroken that he accidentally threw the Dragon's Flute and Jade Pendant into a cold pond at the foot of the Heaven Mountain. Afterwards, Long Tengyue sneakily jumped into the pond to retrieve it. Right now, he only hoped that after Yu Lin saw this pair of jade pendants, she would know of Yu Chen's undying love.
After wiping the tears that had seeped out of the corner of his eyes, Long Tengyue left the shop and quickly disappeared into the market.
Yu Feng returned to the tavern and went straight into his room. Looking at the pair of Dragon Roar Phoenix Flute, he was just dumbstruck, not saying a word, not thinking about anything. Suddenly, he slowly extended his hand and picked up the warm jade flute. His lips pressed against the flute's mouth, and he actually began to play a song, the 'Dragon's Roar', that was originally a zither song.
The voice was low and direct, the sound of the flute endless desolation and desolation. The person listening to it would shed tears, feel heartache, sigh, and feel sorrowful. The flute music did not stop, and in Yu Feng's heart, he was already thinking of his father. He thought of the pain his father had endured over ten years, and it was as if Yu Feng felt it as well.
The sound of the flute gradually became gentle and desolate. The tune had changed, and it was like a lone goose flying alone. It called out for its partner along the way, yet also like a bereaved couple. Alone, it wailed miserably. Yu Feng's thoughts had already drifted about, his mind seemed to see a charming figure, riding a white horse, yet she was still crying softly, if it was not Mu Wanqing, then who else could it be?
Yu Feng's expression was blurry, as if Mu Wanqing was right in front of her eyes. Unknowingly, she felt her heart tighten, and she hurriedly asked: "Wan Qing, Wan Qing, why are you crying? Who bullied you? " Just as she was about to extend her hand, she suddenly remembered that she had left in a bad mood, leaving her alone must have made her feel wronged. Feeling ashamed, she retracted her hand, and muttered: "Sorry, sorry Wan Qing, it's my fault, it's my fault, how can I leave you alone?"
Suddenly, he thought about the white men he had met on the way back. Yu Feng seemed to be shocked and shouted: "Aiya! Wan Qing was alone there, she must not meet any bad people. They have the advantage in numbers, their martial arts are also high, I am not their match, Wan Qing's martial arts are low, if we were to meet again, it will be disastrous! " She immediately felt panic in her heart.
But then he thought again, it had already been two days since he had parted ways with Wan Qing, so he didn't know where she was or what kind of situation she was in. He started to complain again, "Sigh, it's really inappropriate for me to leave a weak girl like her behind like that. If you want to see her again, who knows when, maybe, maybe you might never see her again in your entire life. " For a moment, he felt even more depressed, but at the same time, his heart was filled with tenderness.
Yu Feng let out a long sigh, then suddenly felt that why did he care so much about Mu Wanqing. After meeting by chance, they just went together, and after getting along with each other, they went their separate ways.
With a glance, Yu Feng suddenly saw the embroidered box containing the green jade pendants. He couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Father, don't worry, I'll definitely bring you and Auntie Yu Lin's jade pendant along, so Auntie Yu Lin will know how loyal Father is to her!" With that in mind, he felt more at ease. Only now did he feel hungry. After ordering a few dishes, he fell asleep on the bed.
After waking up from his nap, Yu Feng felt a dull feeling in his heart, and stopped going out since he had nothing better to do. For the past two days, besides eating and sleeping, he had been meditating and practicing. Occasionally, he would play the jade flute when he was interested, but he was happy and at ease.
Taking advantage of the fact that his mood was not too bad on the second day, Yu Feng went to the weapon shop. He knew that he was already in the final stage of forging, but he still needed a day's time, so he bought a black jade sword sheath and placed it on the blood sword sheath.
By noon on the third day, Yu Feng assumed that the sword had been forged and went to the shop to retrieve it. When the servant saw that Yu Feng had arrived, he cordially brought Yu Feng to the rear hall. At this time, Master Lin was standing next to a wooden frame, looking at the sword on it with infatuated eyes, to the point that the two of them were not even aware of it.
