Stealing Hearts (Folk Tales)

　1

　　What is Shangguan Yu best at?

　　The jianghu people will say in unison: knives, fast knives, fast knives that kill people without blood.

　　But Shangguan Yu himself did not think so, he felt that what he was best at was: stealing, stealing hearts, stealing the hearts of beautiful women.

　　Shangguan Yu was right. For so many years, as long as it is the beautiful woman who is the prodigal son of the love field, there is a good chance that he will not be able to escape his clutches. At a gathering of friends, Shangguan Yu, who had drunk too much, suddenly stood up and announced one thing: he was going to steal Mo Qianxue's heart within ten days. Everyone present at that time thought that Guan Yu was talking drunkenly, because everyone felt that this was an impossible thing, just like the sun would not rise from the west.

　　Who is Mo Qianxue?

　　The jianghu people will say in unison: Mo Qianxue is the most beautiful, happiest and happiest person in the world.

　　Mo Qianxue is the pearl in the palm of the famous Marquis Mo of Mo, and is also the fiancée of Hou Jie, the lord of the First Wulin Family Trial Sword Mountain Villa in jianghu.

　　What could be faster than Shangguan Yu's sword? It's the gossip of women and the talk of celebrities. Shangguan Yu's drunken wild words spread like wings throughout the rivers and lakes. When Mo Houye heard this, he only smiled faintly; Hou Jie heard it and his nose "hummed" a little; Mo Qianxue himself heard it, but he didn't feel anything at all, as if it didn't matter to him.

　　When everyone thought it was a joke, Shangguan Yu had already arrived at the Marquis Mansion, because Shangguan Yu was a man who did what he said.

　　Marquis Mo had a supreme position in the jianghu, and the Lord of the Wulin League would also submit to him. Marquis Mo was strong in martial arts, and he was rich enough to rival the country, and the eight hundred guests in the palace were all strange people and strangers in the rivers and lakes.

　　Although Shangguan Yu was a prodigal son of the jianghu, he was also a well-known figure in the jianghu, so Marquis Mo personally welcomed him into the palace and set up a banquet to wash the dust and receive the wind for him.

　　At the banquet, Shangguan Yu finally saw Mo Qianxue, who was as beautiful as a flower, and the ice and jade were as clean as the heavenly immortals who did not eat fireworks in the world. Of course, Shangguan Yu also met Hou Jie, who looked like Pan An's talent, and even Shangguan Yu had to admit in his heart that Mo Qianxue and Hou Jie were a pair created in heaven and earth. But Shangguan Yu was not ashamed of himself, he was talking and laughing at the banquet, talking about interesting things in the rivers and lakes, which caused endless laughter at the banquet; even Mo Qianxue, who was known as an ice beauty, could not help but cover his mouth and laugh.

　　After the banquet, the majestic Marquis Mo patted Shangguan Yu's shoulder and said, "Shangguan Yu, I know that you are here for the little girl, whether you can succeed or not, I have made up your mind as a friend." ”

　　The subordinates of the Hou Ye Mansion led Shangguan Yu to the VIP room. When stepping on the bluestone bricks through the back garden, Shangguan Yu saw Hou Jie holding Mo Qianxue's hand and admiring the flowers by the lotus pond, and in the afterglow of the sunset, the two were really like a pair of gods and immortals.

　　Shangguan Yu laughed to himself and followed the next person to the VIP room. There were only three people who could live in the VIP room of the Marquis Mansion, in addition to Shangguan Yu, there was also the Leader of the Dragon Dao and a blind man.

　　Shangguan Yu, the great name of the Head of the Dragon Dao, had heard that he had retired to the jianghu a few years ago, and he did not expect to be in the Hou Ye Mansion; and the blind man who sat like a stone all day, Shangguan Yu did not know where it came from?

　　The VIP room has a beautiful environment and is very quiet, which is the best place to live. However, Shangguan Yu was not used to it at all, and when it was time to hold the lamp, Shangguan Yu walked out of the VIP room and walked to the big house where ordinary doormen lived, and drank and gambled with those jianghu people.

　　After gambling to sangen, Shangguan Yu lost two silver, and his gambling luck has always been bad. When Shangguan Yuzheng was feeling annoyed, he suddenly heard an alarm sounding, and someone ran in and shouted: "A large number of cult masters have attacked the Houye Mansion, and everyone is going to kill the enemy." ”

　　The doormen took their weapons one after another and rushed to kill the enemy, and Of course Shangguan Yu would not be left behind. When they arrived at the main house, they saw nearly a hundred cult killers dressed in black attacking the Houye Mansion.

　　Shangguan Yu and the disciples pounced on the cult killer, and during the battle, Shangguan Yu saw the martial arts of Marquis Mo and Hou Jie, and neither of them was under him. In just half an hour, the cult killers were defeated and fled one after another. Mo Houye was proud, when suddenly Mo Qianxue's close servant Huan Liuhong ran over and said breathlessly, "Hou Ye, Miss... The lady was gone. ”

　　Mo Houye was shocked and asked, "What's going on?" ”

　　Liu Hong said: "At that time, the young lady and I heard the sound of fighting, and we were standing at the window looking out, when suddenly the candlelight in the room flickered, I looked back and vaguely saw a figure, and then I had a headache in the back of my head, and I didn't know anything." When I woke up, I found that the young lady was missing, and rushed over to tell Hou Ye. ”

　　Without saying a word, Mo Houye pulled out his feet and ran to Mo Qianxue's boudoir, and Shangguan Yu and Hou Jie also followed.

　　As soon as he entered Mo Qianxue's boudoir, Shangguan Yu immediately smelled a fragrance, which came from the red lotus flower inserted in the vase on the table. Shangguan Yu saw that there were half a petal on the table, he picked it up and looked at it, and said, "Marquis Mo, the person who snatched Miss Mo is a master of using a sword, and if you look at this half petal, it was broken by the sword qi." ”

　　Mo Houye took a look at it, his face changed drastically, and he said, "You Dragon One Sword!" Was the person who kidnapped my daughter the Dragon Governor? ”

　　When I rushed to the VIP room where You Long Dao lived, it was already empty.

　　Hou Jie said with an anxious face, "We have won the cult's plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain." Cult killers attack houye mansion in order to lure us away and let the dragon governor rob Xue'er. ”

　　Shangguan Yu looked at the worried Marquis Mo and said, "Hou Ye doesn't need to worry too much, Miss Mo's life is worry-free." The cult kidnapped Miss Mo in order to threaten Hou Ye that they would not harm Miss Mo. ”

　　Marquis Mo nodded, feeling that Shangguan Yu's words were reasonable, and his heart was slightly at ease. He said, "The Dragon Daoists who kidnapped Xue'er should not go far, and you two should quickly lead the people to catch up and save Xue'er." ”

　　Marquis Mo sent ten elites from the palace to follow Shangguan Yu and Hou Jie to rescue Mo Qianxue. Hou Jie set out with an entourage, and his entourage was called Zhang Li, nicknamed "Crazy Knife", which means that his sword skills are like the wind, and he is also a very famous person in the jianghu.

　　Mo Qianxue was indeed robbed by the Dragon Dao Chief. At that time, she saw the You Long Dao Commander who suddenly broke into the boudoir, and thought that it was the person sent by her father to protect her safety, and when the You Long Dao Commander slapped Liu Hong in the air, she knew that things were not good, and hurriedly drew her sword to protect herself; but how could Mo Qianxue be the opponent of the You Long Dao Chief? With only one sword, You Long Dao slammed her sword and lit her hole, picking her up and flying out of the window. Far away from Mohou Mansion, the commander of the Dragon Road put Mo Qianxue on a carriage and whipped away.

　　Three days later, the leader of the Dragon Dao abducted Mo Qianxue to the Ghost Valley, and through the valley, it was the headquarters of the cult that the jianghu people smelled discolored. Just at this moment, Shangguan Yu and other people and horses who rescued Mo Qianxue also arrived, and Hou Jie shouted loudly: "Snow Sister don't be afraid, I have come to save you." ”

　　Mo Qianxue was overjoyed, she knew that her fiancé was strong in martial arts and would definitely be able to save herself.

　　You Long Dao Commander did not panic in the slightest, he stopped to lift Mo Qianxue down, smiled, and walked into a jungle in the valley without panic. He took out a vial in his arms, poured out two red pills, swallowed one for himself, and let Mo Qianxue take the other.

　　The masters of the Houye Mansion made a great contribution and chased them into the jungle. Unfortunately, some of them screamed wildly, some of their bodies sank into the mud, and the screams gradually weakened, and finally they lost their voices.

　　Shangguan Yu, Hou Jie, and Zhang Li stood outside the jungle, all of them couldn't help but change color in shock. Hou Jie said sadly, "This is the Soul Forgotten Forest in the Ghost Valley, the forest is full of mud that devours people, and there is also a deadly poisonous barrier gas, which is the only way to lead to the cult, which is why we Wulin people can never eliminate the cult." ”

　　Shangguan Yu looked at Hou Jie and asked, "Hou Shaoxia, now what can we do to save Miss Mo?" ”

　　Hou Jie pondered for a moment, shook his head helplessly, and said, "There is no way." ”

　　Shangguan Yu suddenly smiled and said, "There is no way to save people." With that, he rushed into the jungle without hesitation.

　　Hou Jie hesitated, and Zhang Li said, "Young Lord, even if you enter the Forgotten Soul Forest, not only will you not be able to save Mo Qianxue, but you will lose your life in vain; you are the only hope of our Hou Family Dynasty, as long as you stay in Qingshan, we will go back and find a way." Shangguan Yu is an outlaw in the jianghu, and it is not a pity that he will die when he enters the Forest of Forgotten Souls; but the status of the young lord is noble, and he cannot easily risk his life, so let's go back! Anyway, the people of the cult would not hurt Mo Qianxue's life. ”

　　Hou Jie sighed and finally turned around with Zhang Li and went back.

　　Mo Qianxue was in the jungle, her eyes looked through the branches and leaves, and she saw Hou Jie leave, and the disappointment in her heart was indescribable. Shangguan Yu's sacrifice of his life to save each other was something that Mo Qianxue had never dreamed of. Fortunately, Shangguan Yu did not set foot on the mud swamp, he drew his sword in his hand, and slowly forced the Dragon Dao Commander.

　　Although You Long Dao was surprised in his heart, he knew that he had the best number, because with the help of the mud that devoured people and the poisonous gas of killing people, Shangguan Yu would undoubtedly lose. He smiled and said, "Shangguan Yu is really worthy of being a prodigal son of the love scene, and for the sake of beauty, he doesn't even want his life." ”

　　Shangguan Yu didn't speak, but slowly approached You Long Dao.

　　You Long Dao laughed triumphantly and said, "Shangguan Yu, in order not to inhale the poisonous barrier qi, you hold your breath, how do you fight with me?" ”

　　Shangguan Yu had already made a move, the sword was quick and dense to slash at the You Long Dao Chief, he had to knock down the opponent in the shortest possible time, so as to exchange for a glimmer of life.

　　You Long Dao Looked at Guan Yu's mind, he was not stupid, so he used light skills to fight with Shangguan Yu. Suddenly Shangguan Yu screamed, it turned out that he had stepped onto the mud swamp, his body was slowly sinking, and he was about to make The Light Gong jump out of the mud swamp. You Long Dao was overjoyed and said, "Shangguan Yu, wait for me to give you a ride!" Saying that, he stabbed his sword at Shangguan Yu in the air.

　　Shangguan Yu raised his sword to meet him, and at the moment when the swords intersected, Shangguan Yu's body not only did not sink, but flew up in the air, and his left hand slapped the chest of You Long Dao.

　　You Long Dao flew out of the three inches away, fell heavily to the ground, spat out a mouthful of blood in his mouth, and gasped, "Shangguan Yu..."

　　Shangguan Yu smiled and said, "A year ago I caught a cult disciple, and in order to survive, he drew a topographic map of the Mud Of the Forgetting Soul Forest swamp mark for me; just now I used my thousand pounds of internal strength on a piece of mud, plunged my feet into the mud, and seduced you." Also, two years ago, after I was poisoned by a strange poison, and after the divine doctor and the ghost were difficult to detoxify me, I have had a body that is invincible to poison since then, and the poisonous barrier gas here has no effect on me at all. ”

　　Only the one who laughs to the end is the winner.

　　Shangguan Yu unlocked Mo Qianxue's hole and said, "Miss Mo, let's go!" ”

　　Mo Qianxue looked at Shangguan Yu and realized that although he was not as handsome as Hou Jie, he had a special charm, and she had a special feeling in her heart, and she couldn't help but feel a wave in her heart, and followed Shangguan Yu with a red face.

　　Shangguan Yu said, "Miss Mo, this jungle is covered with mud, you follow me, don't run around." ”

　　Mo Qianxue said, "Shangguan Yu, can you not call me Miss Mo?" Call me... Cher! ”

　　Shangguan Yu was a little surprised and shouted softly, "Xue'er." ”

　　Mo Qianxue let out a "hmm" and said after a while, "Shangguan Yu, can you take my hand and take me out of this jungle?" ”

　　Shangguan Yu stopped, he turned around in surprise, looked at Mo Qianxue, whose face was flushed, and without saying a word, he pulled her boneless jade hand.

　　Finally walked out of the Forgotten Soul Forest, but Mo Qianxue felt that this jungle was too small, she held Shangguan Yu's hand and said, "Shangguan Yu, when I get home, I will not only tell my father all this, but also break the marriage contract with Hou Jie." ”

　　Shangguan Yu gently hugged Mo Qianxue into his arms...

　　When Shangguan Yu and Mo Qianxue walked into the Hou Ye Mansion holding hands, everyone was stunned. Shangguan Yu knew that in two days, the news that he had stolen Mo Qianxue's heart would spread throughout the rivers and lakes.

　　When Marquis Mo saw his precious daughter who had returned safely, he burst out laughing. Mo Qianxue told his father about Hou Jie's greed for life and fear of death, and Shangguan Yu sacrificed his life to save him, and said that he had fallen in love with Shangguan Yu and asked his father to cancel the marriage contract with the Hou family.

　　That night, Marquis Mo held a banquet at the Lotus Pavilion on the lotus pond, and only Invited Shangguan Yu alone.

　　The moon rises early on June 15, illuminating the pool of mercury and bringing the fragrance of lotus flowers by a cool breeze.

　　Marquis Mo was in a very good mood, and after drinking three cups with Shangguan Yu, he said: "Shangguan Yu, you have finally fulfilled your wish, and I have decided to marry Xue'er to you." It's not because you saved her, it's because she's genuinely in love with you. ”

　　Shangguan Yu did not show half a hint of joy, his face was strange, he looked up at the moon, sighed and said, "Hou Ye, I can't be related to Xue'er." ”

　　Mo Houye looked at Shangguan Yu in shock.

　　Shangguan Yu said, "When I was drunk and said that I wanted to get Mo Qianxue, it was just an excuse to blend into your house, and the purpose was to assassinate Hou Ye you. But I found that I was really in love with Mo Qianxue, so I gave up using Mo Qianxue to achieve my goal. ”

　　Marquis Mo was shocked and angry, and said, "It turns out that it was your conspiracy that the Dragon Dao Commander had kidnapped Xue'er. Shangguan Yu, why did you kill me? ”

　　Shangguan Yu said, "It was not my intention to assassinate you, but the emperor's order is difficult to violate." Shangguan Yu finished speaking, and took out a gold medal given by the emperor from his arms.

　　Mo Houye's face changed drastically, and he said, "What heinous crime have I committed?" The emperor actually wanted to kill me? ”

　　Shangguan Yu said: "The ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government have joined you in hiding treasure houses, recruiting troops and horses, commanding the rivers and lakes, and attempting to rebel. ”

　　Mo Houye suddenly burst out laughing and said, "Shangguan Yu, now that you have told the truth, do you still have a chance to kill me?" And I know that the emperor wants to kill me, aren't you afraid that I will really rebel? ”

　　Shangguan Yu was silent.

　　Mo Houye drank a glass of wine, threw the empty cup into the pool, and said, "Since the emperor wants to force me to rebel, I have no choice." Come on! Shangguan Yu, you will be the first to send the emperor to death. ”

　　Shangguan Yu drew his sword in his hand and attacked it.

　　Marquis Mo faced the battle with his bare hands, and after thirty rounds, Shangguan Yu had already shown defeat. But what Shangguan Yu did not expect was that Marquis Mo suddenly stopped his hand and was slashed through the chest and abdomen by Shangguan Yu. Mo Houye Kuiwei's body was shaky, and he sat down in a chair, a large amount of blood gushing out of the wound.

　　Shangguan Yu asked in surprise, "Hou Ye, why did you send him to death?" ”

　　Marquis Mo smiled miserably and said, "If a prince wants his subjects to die, how can a subject not die?" Shangguan Yu, the only thing I can't rest assured of is Xue'er..."

　　Shangguan Yu looked into his expectant eyes and said, "Hou Ye is assured, I will definitely take good care of Xue'er." ”

　　Marquis Mo's mansion suddenly burst into flames, and the bright moon also became eclipsed.

　　Shangguan Yu was very shocked, and immediately performed light feats, like a dragonfly dotting the water, crossing the lotus pond, and it was actually the Dragon Dao Commander who was confronted.

　　You Long Dao Asked, "Shangguan Yu, did you succeed?" ”

　　Shangguan Yu said, "Mo Di is dead. Dao Chief, how did the Houye Mansion burn up? ”

　　You Long Dao said triumphantly, "Poor Dao is under the Emperor's holy edict to destroy Mo Fa Full Gate, so I used the thunderbolt fireball of the Yanshan Flame Hall to burn Mo Fu to the ground." ”

　　Shangguan Yu asked urgently, "Where is Mo Qianxue?" ”

　　You Long Dao Smiled and said, "It is still necessary to say, of course, it is to cut the grass and remove the roots." ”

　　Shangguan Yu's face changed drastically, and his body had rushed into the sea of fire like a furious arrow. Shangguan Yu rushed straight to Mo Qianxue's boudoir, picked up the panicked Mo Qianxue, and fled outside.

　　The tongue of fire was like a blade, licking his skin, but it could not stop Shangguan Yu's speed. When Shangguan Yu was about to rescue Mo Qianxue from the sea of fire, his vest suddenly hurt, and a sword had already pierced into his vest. All of Shangguan Yu's strength and hard work had been emptied by a sharp sword, and he looked back at the person who had sneaked up on him and fell down...

　　Mo Qianxue finally woke up, and she opened her eyes to look at the gorgeous room, but she knew that this was not her boudoir. Mo Qianxue shouted, "Shangguan Yu, Shangguan Yu, where are you?" ”

　　An old man with a cold face walked in, and it was the jianghu god who was invincible, and he said, "Miss Mo, you are awake." ”

　　Mo Qianxue remembered the fire, and she asked anxiously, "Uncle Divine Doctor, where is my father?" Where is Shangguan Yu? ”

　　The ghost enemy sighed and said, "Mohou Mansion has been wiped out, and no one has ever seen Mo Houye and Shangguan Yu again." ”

　　Mo Qianxue was very frightened and said, "I was rescued by Shangguan Yu from the sea of fire, how come no one saw Shangguan Yu?" ”

　　Mo Qianxue was confused, and he said, "The person who rescued you from the sea of fire is Hou Jie, who brought you back to the Sword Test Mountain Villa and asked the old man to heal your wounds." alas! Although the old man saved your life, but... But there is nothing they can do to restore your flower appearance. ”

　　Mo Qianxue was shocked, she took a bronze mirror and took a picture, and was immediately stunned by the person in the mirror. Who is the person in the mirror who has no hair, no eyebrows, a distorted face, and a lot of scars? Could it be a ghost? But ghosts are not so ugly! Of course, Mo Qianxue knew that it was herself, women have always regarded appearance as more important than life, and Mo Qianxue was still the most beautiful woman in the jianghu before!

　　The ghost was also sorry for Mo Qianxue in his heart, and he comforted her: "Miss Mo, in fact, a person's appearance is not very important. Hou Jie did not dislike you because of this, he said that when you are well, he will marry you. ”

　　A sneer flashed on Mo Qianxue's face, and she put down the mirror and said, "Uncle Divine Doctor, I beg you for one thing, please help me." ”

　　The ghost enemy said, "Marquis Mo treated me like a mountain, as long as I can, I will not give up." ”

　　Shangguan Yu woke up and was in Ouchi, and the emperor himself came to visit.

　　The Emperor said, "Shangguan Yu, you and You Long have made a great contribution this time. You were almost buried in the sea of fire, it was the dragon that saved you, and the tai doctors in the palace treated you for a month, and finally pulled you back from the ghost gate. ”

　　Shangguan Yu struggled to get out of bed to salute, but the emperor held him down.

　　The emperor's mood was very good, he said: "You Long has been lurking in Mo Different Province for many years, and he has the evidence of Mo Different's conspiracy to rebel, he cooperated with you to eliminate Mo Different, and He has already made him a national teacher." Shangguan Yu, what reward do you want? ”

　　Shangguan Yu shook his head and said, "It is only natural for the subject to serve the emperor and not ask for any reward." I just want to spend a few days on the rivers and lakes, please ask the emperor for permission..."

　　September 15th is the day when Hou Jie and Mo Qianxue became intimate.

　　The transfigured Shangguan Yu mixed among the guests, watching Mo Qianxue, who was wearing a red hood, and Hou Jie baitang became intimate, and he who was waiting to avenge the sword finally chose to leave quietly.

　　In the new room, Mo Qianxue took up a glass of wine and said to Hou Jie: "Xianggong, I toast you, thank you for being willing to marry me as an ugly monster." ”

　　Hou Jie drank the wine and said, "Mother, today you and I have become husband and wife, and I have something to ask you." ”

　　Mo Qianxue asked, "What' the matter?" ”

　　Hou Jie held her hand and said, "There are rumors in the rivers and lakes that my father-in-law Mo Didi, who led the army to rehabilitate the thieves and destroyed the princes, hid the wealth he obtained and a book of marching soldiers in a secret place, and drew a treasure map. ”

　　Mo Qianxue smiled slightly and said, "The moment of new marriage is worth thousands of gold, what treasure map?" XiangGong, will you loosen my clothes for me? ”

　　Hou Jie was disappointed, and he said with a stiff scalp, "Okay! He looked at Mo Qianxue, who was ugly in the candlelight, and his heart was as uncomfortable and disgusting as swallowing a fly, he stretched out his trembling hands and undressed her, but he only unbuttoned one button, and had lost his courage, he retracted his hand and said, "I... I have one more very important thing to deal with, you sleep by yourself first, don't wait for me. After saying that, he did not look at Mo Qianxue again and quickly walked out.

　　Mo Qianxue watched him disappear, and suddenly burst out laughing, she took the dragon and phoenix candle on the table, lit the house, and in the midst of the raging fire, she murmured, "Shangguan Yu, Shangguan Yu, wait for me, I have come to accompany you..."

　　Three months later, Hou Jie, who had been poisoned by a poisoned needle, found that the ghost enemy had become blind.

　　The ghost asked with a smile, "Did Hou Shaoxia and Miss Mo become intimate?" ”

　　Hou Jie sighed in his heart and said, "I am married." ”

　　The ghost enemy said, "Then I want to congratulate Hou Shaoxia, it seems that the Hou family dynasty is in sight to restore the country." ”

　　Hou Jie asked in amazement, "Why did the Divine Doctor say this?" ”

　　The ghost enemy said: "Hou Shaoxia's real identity is a side branch of the Hou Family Dynasty, the Hou Family Dynasty was destroyed by Marquis Mo fifteen years ago, Hou Shaoxia shouldered the heavy responsibility of restoring the country, so he has always wanted to get Marquis Mo's treasures and military books." After I woke Miss Mo up, she begged me for one thing, that is, to stab the treasure map in her flesh, and I completed the task and became blind. Since Hou Shaoxia had already married Miss Mo, he had naturally obtained the treasure map, and it was expected that the restoration of the country would be in sight. ”

　　Hou Jie was like a wooden chicken, he remembered the night when he and Mo Qianxue became intimate in the cave, he grabbed the door and fled, he remembered the laughter when Mo Qianxue set himself on fire...
