第二章   绿林渔阳


    “血！血！”霞琳一把抓住梦寰的手，像拾起一块烫手山芋，翻来覆去，又放在唇边呵气，“寰哥哥，疼不疼，伤到哪里了？”梦寰却没有反应。霞琳抬头，委屈地看去，却见梦寰僵在那里，一动不动地盯着桌上的信，他半晌道：“血……血……”

    那信没有封存，是一绢素帕，周身赤染。梦寰艰难地伸出手，揭开来，嘴唇停止了抽搐，变成了一字一句的默念。霞琳却不知道他在念些什么，便问：“寰哥哥，信上说的什么，兰姐姐还好么？”

    梦寰似魇，重复地咕噜着什么。霞琳愈觉不妙，循着看去，“呀，这是一封血书！”梦寰仍然没听见，双眸滞在那血书上。雪花飘棂，落在他手指的伤口上，梦寰猛一激凌，屏息片刻，定定神，缓缓念了下去：

    “梦寰如唔：

    庙影笛音，犹如昨日，然万般皆是命，半点不由人。鹊桥人远，月下天涯，红颜命薄，约来生再续断弦。昔日毒针，淬百草之奇、五刑之厉，纵有千年草菇得济一时，然不可尽去，吾早知矣。解药如鲫，然过斯针毒，必毁吾颜，惟草菇断无此害。今日毒发，不可须臾，君见此书之日，即吾笑栖黄泉碧落、待君耕田凿井之时。然武林纷繁，苍生疾苦，君须挺身江湖，偃泽天下，方可赴吾三世之约。龙携清风，燕在白云，无时无地不伴君。若兰绝笔。”

    那一字字、一句句，混着体香和血腥，翻滚着梦寰的心。若兰，你字字皆血，我心欲碎，你乍然诀别，更是晴天霹雳。梦寰喃喃着，不看霞琳却问道：“汤呢，那汤呢，我要喝。”霞琳早已泪流满面，泣不成声，听寰哥哥这么一问，便端上新汤来。梦寰去拿汤匙，汤匙明明在碗里，他却在桌上到处找。霞琳指了指，“小心烫”，梦寰端起碗来，却手不能把箸，几次夹起苦瓜，又落入碗里。霞琳欲伸手，又见梦寰抖得厉害，只得作罢。梦寰好容易夹起一片苦瓜，屡到舌尖，却碰到唇角，送不入口。约莫半个时辰，才勉强吃了两口，梦寰坐在那里动也不动，直勾勾望着窗外的月亮。霞琳见状，虚掩房门，蹑步徐出，悄悄守在门口。一宿过去，万籁俱寂。

    次日拂晓，一缕阳光掠过房门，梦寰木然起身，四处漫步。“掌门，各路豪侠齐聚山下，请掌门主持大事。”梦寰默了一会儿。“寰哥哥”，霞琳示意巡山退下，“刚才巡山报过几次了，八大长老、十六会舵主，都在山下等哥哥。”“什么事？”“天龙帮帮主李沧澜的尸身，有下落了。”

    梦寰听罢，把那块刻着“诺”字的白玉放入怀里，目光如炬，定声说道：“走，师妹，我们看看去。”“巡山伯，你安排大家先到聚义厅，我随后便来。”霞琳转忧为喜，拿宝剑给梦寰，“别忘了。”梦寰淡淡接过，大步迈入聚义厅。

    寒暄过后，至善大师道：“杨掌门，大家分头寻找李帮主尸身，已有头绪。”随即取出一锦囊，打开是六七十根白发。“这是……”霞琳问道。“不错，”李瑶红道，“这是我爹的头发，至善大师一路找到的。”梦寰不解，至善大师道：“杨掌门，老衲前日在断崖树上，见此锦囊，李瑶红姑娘见后，便断定是李沧澜帮主之物，知父莫若女，老衲料想不会错。”瑶红点头。

    梦寰问：“是不是上次，我和陶玉掉下去，遇见大师那断崖？”至善道：“然也。此锦囊挂在树上，必有深意。老衲猜想，李帮主尚在人间。”瑶红凤目熠熠，几欲雀跃：“至善大师，真的吗？我爹爹还活着吗？”至善微微颔首。梦寰讷然：“此话怎讲？”至善略一沉吟，离座拂髯，缓缓道来：

    “李帮主的头发放在锦囊里，挂在树上，其中必有蹊跷。或是他自己所为，抑或他人所为。若是李帮主自己所为，必有难言之隐。若是他人所为，李帮主可能已遭挟持。但不论何种情形，李帮主尚在人间，似可推敲。否则，为何当日尸身突然不见？”

    众人皆点头称是。“那我们现在应该怎么做？”瑶红问道。“此事，正要请杨掌门裁决”。至善声若洪钟。杨梦寰有些惶恐，躬身作揖道：“至善大师，诸位前辈，梦寰承蒙厚爱，接任昆仑派掌门，识薄能鲜，力有不逮，只是勉力为之，还仰仗各位提携。论起武林公事，梦寰更是不配置喙，何况少室峰一战后，武林盟主尚无依归，名不正则言不顺。梦寰不在其位，更不能谋其政了。”

    至善大师道：“不然，杨少侠年轻有为，为武林铲除大害，此其一也；少侠义薄云天，远近闻名，为武林留正气，此其二也；少侠执昆仑牛耳，昆仑又为武林xx，此其三也；少侠习得归元秘笈，功力精湛，举世无伦，此其四也；瑶红姑娘与杨掌门相交甚笃，可寄百里之命，寻父之事，托与掌门，理所当然，此其五也。五者俱备，杨掌门之外，谁可当之？”梦寰尚在迟疑，八帮十六会群鸦鼓噪：“就是就是，听至善大师一言，胜读十年书啊！杨帮主，你若不决，莫非看不起我八大门派，莫非我八帮十六会，在帮主眼里皆草寇不成？”

    梦寰又踟蹰片刻，遂正色道：“恭敬不如从命。承蒙各位前辈看得起，李姑娘寻父之事，就包在梦寰身上了。事有议决，还请诸君知无不言，言无不尽，也好集思广益。一旦决定，便不容犹豫，执行到底。若有违者，今日见证，江湖共击之。”“好！”各路英雄异口同声，至善大师忽然举手示意，众人静下来。

    “各路英雄，老衲看杨少侠意气风发，德才兼备，既然是众望所归，那今日何不就武林盟主一事，决个究竟？”至善浑然吐纳，其声有如磐石，众人听了无不一凛，默然应允。

    “一码归一码，武林盟主，可不能这么随便定了！”众人看去，见一落魄书生，腰晃铁剑，胯下一只火红巨鼋，不衫不履，裼裘而来。行状虽邋遢不羁，却颇有几分自负。梦寰拱手道：“诚然诚然，武林盟主一事，切不可草率定了。前辈有何见教？”走近却惊讶一番，缓缓道：“原来是你？”

The second chapter greenwood Yang recreation

"Blood!!!!!!" XiaLin grabbed the hand, like dream atlas picked up a hot potato, tossing and turning on his lips AQi, "atlas brother, painful not painful, hurt?" But no reaction between dream. XiaLin look up, injustice ground, dream, still stood there atlas stared at the letter, he put forward a way: "blood... blood..."

The letter is not sealed, a red dye, pieces of whole. Dream atlas hard hand, opened, lips halted tics, became the literal silently. XiaLin but don't know what he was reading, he asked: "atlas brother, saying, what's sister is good?"

Yan like dream atlas, repeatedly guru what. The good XiaLin awareness, follow the looks, "ah, this is a theirs!" Dream, eyes still haven't heard advancements in that theirs. Snowflakes drifting Ling, falling on his finger wound, dream, a vast IP, calming breath moments, read slowly down:

"The dream atlas as well:

DiYin shadow like yesterday, temples, all life is precious, not man. It is on the people, under the command of thin, beauty, that DuanXian renew. Former needle, hardening of the 100 grass WuXing, greatly, even though a millennium, but not DeJi straw mushrooms until done as early as we go. Medicine such as ever, however, needle recessiveness and will destroy our poison, but the straw mushrooms until done. The broken Today, do not breathe poisonous, jun saw this date, namely we laugh BiLa yellow, jun habitat of drilling plow. However, the whole mankind, wushu must stand, prince, the rest to my jersey of iii. Dragon with cool breeze, yan in baiyun, no not accompany. If the orchid second. "

The recovery, YiGouGou, with body and bloody, rolled dream atlas of heart. If the orchid, you are my blood, fully, you suddenly ran to farewell, is a bolt from the blue. Dream, don't XiaLin murmurs atlas was asked: "soup, the soup? I want to drink." XiaLin had tears, sobbing, atlas, so ask elder brother to carry on the new soup. Dream to spoon, spoon advancements in a bowl, but he is looking at the table. XiaLin has pointed, "hot", the bowl to dream atlas, but not the hand Zhu, balsam pear, pick up a few times and fall into a bowl. XiaLin to hand, and dreams to shake terribly, between them. Easy to pick up a dream atlas, balsam pear, but the tongue repeatedly to send no entrance, lip Angle. About half an hour, reluctantly ate two dreams atlas sat motionless, straight was looking out the window of the moon. XiaLin looked at it, falsely yan, Nie step out door, keep on xu quietly. Last night, the sound.

The dawn, a door, dream through sunshine, walking and callous approach. "Dozen below, each supremo, please gather event hosted supremo." A vast vision dreams. "Atlas", XiaLin motioned rounds managing their brother, "just had several rounds managing their report, eight elders, Lord, all sixteen will steer in mountain etc." "What happened?" "LiCangLan for wang, have fall."

Look, the dream that vast engraved "in the word" bai's arms, MuGuangRuJu, sound and said: "go, talents, we look." "And you arrange all rounds managing their first to JuYi hall, I then." XiaLin ZhuanYouWeiXi, sword to dream atlas, "don't forget." Dream faint, striding over vast JuYi repositories.

After greeting, good master: "Yang, separately for rated chien-ming wang li, existing idea." Then take a kit, open is 669 white hairs. "This is..." XiaLin asked. "Well," LiYao GongDao, "this is my dad's hair, to master the way to find good." Dream to master, atlas, "Yang supremo, old trees in the cliffs, eve, this guide LiYao red girl that is seen after the LiCangLan wang, female, old father co-writer large-but not wrong." Yao red nod.

Dream atlas ask: "is the last time, I TaoYu and fall, meet the cliffs master?" To good way: "but also. This guide hanging in a tree, old. There is speculation, li wang on earth." Yao red eye, and a few to phoenix to high-five "master, really? My father still alive?" Good nodded faintly. Dream atlas was raking likelihood: "???" A faltering, and slightly from his seat, slowly been brushed ways:

"Li wang hair on the kit, hanging in a tree, there must be a catch in it, or his own or others, chien-ming wang li. If his act, there. If others seem, li wang may have been hijacked. But whatever the circumstances, li wang is still in the earth, the likelihood can weigh. Otherwise, why not?" the body suddenly,

They are nodded. "That we should do now?" Yao red asked. "It was rated award". Please Yang, Good sound if big bell. YangMengHuan some fear, devoting to ZuoYi way: "master, you dream of predecessors, courtesy of love, the vast took the kunlun pie supremo, general thin, can have fresh strength, just as the incompetent, also depend on everybody. Theory on wu3 lin2's business, the dream is not much ZhiHui, atlas, a little room peaks, no wu3 lin2's leader name rectification is not a dream of atlas, couldn't its politics."

Master: "good, YangShaoXia young and promising for wu3 lin2's eradicated, this one is great; YiBoYunTian little xia, famed for wu3 lin2's stay healthy, this second; little xia hold kunlun and wu-lin processes, kunlun leader, the third is to yuan; little xia acquisition work, the secret, exquisite, the fourth is also precious red girl; ShenDu fellowship with Yang, can send rated the lives of thyme, the father, of course, and its rated, who also. Five, Yang, who can be rated as"? In dreams, eight approach for 16 will group is: "crow hubub, listen to a good master, bullet hole in my head! Yang wang, if you don't, not despise me eight branches, for I will not at 16: chien-ming wang is not CaoKou eyes?"

Dream and a vast, hence primly right way: "if you insist. Thanks everybody respect, li girl found the father, wrapped in dreams. Things have vast decisions, please you all that you know, can be brainstorming. Once you've decided not hesitate, execution, exactly. If you have any offenders, today, the testimony of strike river." "Good!" Each hero chorus, good master trainers, they suddenly calm.

"Each hero, old watch YangShaoXia daring, integrity, since it is the recognition that today is wu3 lin2's leader, why should a what?" Good sound like the integrated breathes, rock, and they hear, hear with different without rest.

"A yard to a yard, wu3 lin2's leader, can't literally settle!" They look down and see a scholar, waist sway iron jian, a red giant, legs, and we BuShanBuLv Ti Jo. Although sloppy uninhibited, but HangZhuang have a conceited. Dream atlas salutes way: "certainly true, wu3 lin2's leader, must not hasty. Any news?" predecessors, But, slowly approached the surprising way: "so are you?"
