DEMI GODS AND SEMI DEVILS BOOK 4 OF 5 (SONG OF THE CAVE IMMORTAL) by Jin Yong

Strong Wind Throwing Piaomiao Peak Into Turmoil Part 1

Suddenly someone shouted at the waist of the mountain: "You cannot do it, you definitely must not injure Miss Wang, i will surrender to you." His gray shadow seems to fly down and rush over, his movement is extremely quick and agile. The people standing outside the encirclement cursed in unison, they move forward to block him, but he turn to the east and dodge to the west, he avoided everyone and threw himself forward. Wang YuYan saw everything clearly under the flame, its Duan Yu.

Duan Yu shouted: "Isn't it easy to surrender? For Miss Wang, if you want me to surrender a thousand times, ten thousand times i will also agree." He rush in front of the toutuo and shouted: "Hello, hello, everyone please let go, why are you grappling Miss Wang?"

Wang YuYan knew his martial art is sometimes on and sometimes off, more often than not its off, but he still disregarded his life and came forward to rescue, she felt grateful, her voice trembled: "Duan....Gentleman Duan, its you?" Duan Yu said happily: "Its me, its me!"

The toutuo cursed: "You....what thing are you?" Duan Yu said: "I am human, what thing?" the toutuo flip his hand and form a fist, with a 'Pa' sound he hit Duan Yu's chin. Duan Yu can't maintain his footing and tumbled to the left, his forehead bump against a rock, immediately fresh blood flow out.

When the toutuo saw his lightness martial art, he assume Duan Yu possess extremely strong martial arts, his fist technique is fake and he did not think it could hit him, after punching his right hand held onto the Buddhist monk knife and immediately execute three moves, these moves are genuine and intended to kill, unexpectedly his left fist manage to knock Duan Yu down with an empty move, he was stunned, at the same time Duan Yu's internal energy counter-attacked and his left arm felt numb, luckily the punch is light, the counter-force is not strong. The toutuo saw that Murong Fu is still rushing and killing, he shouted: "Murong chap, if you don't surrender i will really chop of this little girl's head. Great Buddha will never lie, will you surrender or not!"

Murong Fu felt really troubled, he cannot bear to let Wang YuYan die by the hands of these demonic people, but 'Gusu Murong' name is incomparably respected, he cannot cave in to other people's threats and surrender to heretic people, this will become gossip and everyone will ridicule him, moreover if he surrender he will mostly probably die as well. He shouted loudly: "Evil toutuo, you want young master to surrender, its very difficult. If you dare harm a hair on this lady, if i don't dismember you into thousand pieces then i am not human!" as he finish speaking he rush towards Wang YuYan, however around 20 people wielded their weapons and stab left and right, they block his front and attack his back, how can he break out in such a short time?

The toutuo said angrily: "I will kill this little girl, i will see how you going to deal with Great Buddha?" as he finish speaking he raised his knife, with a 'Hu' sound he chop towards Wang YuYan's neck. The two women holding onto Wang YuYan fear getting implicated, they quickly release their grip and jump away.

Duan Yu is struggling to get up, his left hand pressing onto the wound on his forehead, his expression really pathetic, he saw the toutuo really chopping his knife at Wang YuYan, but she just stood there motionless, maybe she is in shock or her acupoint is sealed, she did not dodge at all. Duan Yu is extremely anxious, in a moment of desperation his internal energy automatically became abundant and vigorous, he immediately executed his [Six Meridians Divine Sword], with a 'Chi Chi' noise, there is a ringing sound as his internal energy strike the Buddhist monk knife and shot it down.

Duan Yu quickly rush forward, he turn his hand and put Wang YuYan on his back and shouted: "Run for your life!"

The toutuo grab the knife off the ground, he roared ferociously and hack the knife at Duan Yu. Duan Yu was alarmed, he quickly pointed his right hand, there is a 'Chi' sound, his 'Shang Yang Sword' thrust straight at the knife, the knife was jolted off and drop on the ground again. Duan Yu executed his [Graceful Steps upon the Waves] and dash outward.

Everyone rallied and rush forward to block him. But Duan Yu slant left and tilt right, he move in a zigzag manner and rush out. All the Cave-masters and Island-masters send their weapons, fists and kicks at him, but Duan Yu dodge swiftly, he wasn't hit at all. For the past few days, all he ever thought of was Wang YuYan, even while dreaming he only saw Wang YuYan. At night, he chatted with Fan Hua, Ba TianShi and the rest at an inn, as he was about to go to bed, he kept thinking about Wang YuYan, how can he fall asleep? Thus in the middle of the night, when everyone was asleep, he secretly sneak out of the inn and followed the direction taken by Murong Fu and his party and chase after them. After the dramatic battle between Murong Fu and Ding ChunQiu, Murong Fu accompanied Deng BaiChuan and recuperated at an inn, thus Duan Yu did not spend much effort and manage to catch up with him. Duan Yu hid himself in another room, he did not step out of the room at all, he is separated from Wang YuYan by merely a few zhang, he felt really delighted. By the time Murong Fu, Wang YuYan and the rest left the inn and travelled on the road, Duan Yu followed them from a distance.

While travelling, he said to himself countless times: "After this road, i should not follow them anymore. Duan Yu ah Duan Yu, you really trap yourself and refuse to extricate, you really waste your time studying literature. You should act in the nick of time, its best to turn around and head back to shore, you should brandish your wisdom sword and severe your thread of passion, else you will sacrifice your entire life for nothing. There is a saying in Buddhist scripture: 'View sex as variable, distance away from it, as your desire wane, your heart will be free. Sex is variable, variable is suffering, suffering is not you. Loathe sex, loathe the reason for unhappiness, free yourself from unhappiness.'"

But to view Wang YuYan's 'sex' as 'variable', 'loathe and distance away from it', how can he do it? His footstep is extremely light and swift, he followed Wang YuYan at a distance, unexpectedly Murong Fu, Bao BuTong and the rest never detect it at all. Wang YuYan got up on the tree, Murong Fu handling the situation and meeting the enemy, Duan Yu saw all of it at a distance, when the toutuo wanted to kill Wang YuYan he automatically step forward bravely and surrendered on behalf of Murong Fu, but the other party simply refuse to accept his 'surrender'.

In a short period of time, Duan Yu carried Wang YuYan and rush out of the encirclement, he is afraid that they might chase after him and he ran for a few hundred zhang, he finally stop and relax, he put Wang YuYan down. Wang YuYan blush, she said: "No, no, Gentleman Duan, my acupoint is sealed, i can't stand." Duan Yu supported her shoulder and said: "Yes! Teach me how to unseal acupoint, i will undo it for you." Wang YuYan blushed furiously, she said bashfully: "No, no need! After 3 quarter hour the acupoint will automatically unseal, you don't have to undo it for me." She knew that to undo the acupoint, the 'ShenFeng acupoint' needs to be massage, the 'ShenFeng acupoint' is at the chest beside the breast, its extremely inappropriate.

Duan Yu don't understand the underlying reason, he said: "The situation is dangerous, we cannot delay, its best that you let me undo your acupoint so that we can plan on how to escape."

Wang YuYan blush and said: "Not good!" she raise her head, Murong Fu and Deng BaiChuan are still rushing and killing the enemy, she is concern about her cousin, she said: "Gentleman Duan, my cousin is surrounded, we have to go save him."

Duan Yu chest ached, she is only concerned about Murong Fu, he is completely dishearten, he thought: "I keep thinking about her endlessly, it will never end, Duan Yu will fulfil her wish and die for Murong Fu and settle this matter." He said: "Very good! Wait here, i will go save him."

Wang YuYan said: "No, this won't do! You don't know martial arts, how can you save someone?"

Duan Yu smiled and said: "Moments ago, didn't i carry you out?" Wang YuYan is aware that his [Six Meridians Divine Sword] is unpredictable, sometime it works sometime it doesn't, he cannot execute it freely, she said: "Just now you got lucky.....you....you are concern about my safety, you manage to execute your [Six Meridians Divine Sword]. You might not treat my cousin the same way as you treat me, i am afraid.....i am afraid....." Duan Yu said: "Don't worry, i will simply treat your cousin the same way as i treat you." Wang YuYan shake her head and said: "Gentleman Duan, its too risky, it won't work." Duan Yu stick out his chest and said: "Miss Wang, as long as you ask me to go take the risk i am willing to risk my life and limb to help out." Wang YuYan blush again, she said softly: "You treat me so well, i really don't deserve it."
