第三回: 苍鹭的故事
苍鹭的伤又多又严重。那个老人把他从地上抱起来以后，他晕过去了。后来他醒过来的时候，他不知道他在哪儿，也不知道这是什么地方。那个地方非常黑，但是他可能听水的声音。他不能动，也不能说话。他只能躺在哪儿。他渐渐得明白了他在一个洞里。
那个老人来看苍鹭的时候，他没说什么。他就是好好地照顾苍鹭。那个老人
给苍鹭吃药，吃饭，还有他把他的伤都治了。苍鹭不知道为什么那个老人想帮助他。他想了一想，可是还不想去一个原因。
苍鹭复原了一点以后，他又可能说话，所以他跟那个老人说，“谢谢，前辈。我不知道怎么报答你。“那个老隐士说，“不用谢。”苍鹭有一点讶异，因为他觉得那个老人一定是哑巴。苍鹭问他，“请问，前辈，为什么你以前没说什么？”那个老人没有答回他。
因为苍鹭还有伤，他不能走路，得住在那个洞里面。那个老人告诉他，“我教你内功，帮你养好伤。“苍鹭没想到那个老人也是一个功夫高手。他心里想，要是我可以请这个老隐士帮我一点，我就能救我的兄弟葱绿刀了。哪有多好啊！

When the old man came to see him, he didn't say anything. He only took care of Heron.

Heron didn't know why this old man wanted to help him. He thought about it, but he couldn't think of a reason.

When Heron had recovered a little, and he could speak again, he said to the old man,
“xièxie qiánbèi. wǒ bù zhīdào zěnme bào nǐ.” nàge lǎo yǐnshì shuō, “bùyòngxiè.” cānglù
"Thank you, elder. I don't know how to repay you." The old hermit said, "There's no need for thanks."

Heron was a little surprised, because he felt the old man must be mute. Heron asked him,
"qǐngwèn,qiánbèi,wèishénme nǐ yǐqián méi shuō shénme?" nàge lǎorén méi yǒu huìdā tā.
"May I ask, elder, why you didn't say anything before?" The old man didn't answer him.

Because Heron was still injured, he couldn't walk around and had to stay inside the cave. The old man

told him, "I'll teach you an internal energy method, it will help your injuries." Heron hadn't expected this old man

I'll be able to rescue my brother Verdant Blade. That would be great!
