After Waking up Beside the Villain
Chapter 202 After retreating, I am No. 1 in the world 16 Chuchu...
The woman in red?
Chu Yunsheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he turned his head and looked at Xie Chengyun.
At this moment, they both thought of the phantom of Ji Ling in a red dress that Chu Yunsheng met on the Rainy Night Mountain Road when he was subjected to Li Daitao's stiffening method. Could it be that the attack on Ningshou had something to do with Ji Ling?
"What does this woman in red look like?" Chu Yunsheng asked.
Ning Ping recalled in a trance, with longing and admiration vaguely on her face: "She has long eyebrows and phoenix eyes, is tall, her appearance is delicate and beautiful like a peony, and she is very heroic, but her temper seems to be a bit unruly, she has a bad temper, and she even curses. Give me a few words..."
Ning Shou's valet is quite literate and fluent in words, and speaks eloquently.
Listening to the description in this text, Xie Chengyun couldn't help but a smile appeared in his eyes. After narrowing his eyes at Chu Yunsheng, the senior actress who played the saint beside him, he looked at Ning Ping'an again, with a soft voice. Slowly, he said persuasively, "Where did this woman tell you to go, and what did you see?"
"She told me...to go, to Longzhang Waterfall on the south side of Dongsheng Mountain..."
Ning Pingan said honestly: "After the martial arts competition, the young master left angrily. I was worried about the young master, so I chased after him... When I chased him to a mountain stream, I couldn't find the young master. Then I heard the sound of fighting, far away , I thought the young master ran into someone who took advantage of the fire and ran in that direction in a hurry."
"Running over, I didn't see the young master, I only saw the woman in red chasing and killing a group of men in black."
"There were more than a dozen men in black, all of whom were very skilled in martial arts, but no matter what weapons they used or what moves they used, the woman could kill one of them with a single palm, without any effort. She chased those men, as if Not in a hurry to kill them, but like a cat playing with a mouse, deliberately let it play."
"I hid in the forest and watched from a distance. I didn't dare to breathe, but I was still spotted by the leading man in black—a black wind! A black light blew over. I couldn't breathe, and I was about to die! "
"Then... she saved me, and the man in black took the opportunity to escape."
"She didn't go after her. She stayed and asked me if I was a member of the Ning family. I agreed, and she took me to the bottom of the Longzhang Waterfall. There was a piece of rocks and woods there, and the young master was lying in the middle of the woods, covered all over Blood, most of the clothes were torn, and half a ghost face was drawn with blood on the heart..."
"The young master is still angry, but he can't wake up no matter what. I was terrified and wanted to ask my sister in red for help, but when I turned my head, I couldn't see her."
"I wanted to go behind the Longzhang Waterfall with my young master on my back. That's where the Zheng family's mining area is located. I might be able to find the help of the Zheng family guarding this place. But the master and the Zheng family had a bad relationship, and the young master was seriously injured. I was afraid that the Zheng family would kill me. I didn't dare to take this risk, so I thought about it, so I had no choice but to go down the mountain first. On the way down the mountain, I met a few good men who reported the letter to the mansion for me, and only then did someone come to pick me up and the young master back..."
Longzhang Waterfall, the Man in Black, the Zheng Family Mining Area, the picture of the ghost face on the heart.
These words were explained in such a way that Chu Yunsheng was a little unexpected. In just a few sentences, one can vaguely see how deep the water is here.
"After returning to the mansion, did your young master wake up? How did Patriarch Ning and the rest of the Ning family behave? In addition, you came here and were guarded because you were recuperating from your injuries, or did you find that Ning Shou had the same kind of behavior as before? What's so different?" Xie Chengyun continued to ask.
"The young master is not crazy!"
Almost without thinking this time, Ning Pingan blurted out a little excitedly: "The young master just got injured and hurt his brain. He just woke up and didn't see Ping An clearly, so he punched me Ping An... The Patriarch knocked the young master unconscious and called out Many doctors came, and later the young master woke up in the middle of the night and recognized him."
"The young master hurt me, he was very guilty, and he said that his meridians were disabled, he could no longer practice martial arts, and he didn't need a sword servant in the future, so he begged the master to return my body contract, give me 50 taels of silver, and send me out of the mansion."
"I didn't want to leave, but I was driven away anyway. I rented the yard here, and I just lived here until the young master changed his mind and asked me to go back. I didn't move 50 taels, I kept it, and waited to return it to the master and Young master. No one is guarding me, I am the only one living here, but the young master keeps sending people to deliver rice grains..."
"The young master is injured, and the Patriarch is with him every day, and he is very concerned about the young master. The masters of the second and third bedrooms took the opportunity to send their outstanding sons and daughters to take care of family affairs, hoping to seize the position of the future Patriarch. Some chaos was suppressed forcefully by the Patriarch."
"They are all dreaming. Even if there is no young master, the head of the family is also in his prime, and he can still be the family for at least ten or twenty years. How can it be their turn?"
"Besides, I believe that the young master will definitely get better, he will definitely be better..."
Ning Ping murmured, her half-drooped eyelids twitched twice.
Seeing this, Chu Yunsheng quickly raised his hand and pointed at Ning Ping'an's neck side by side, making him faint again before the secret method failed.
This time, the effect of this fantasy-like secret method is much better than last time. This is not only because Ning Pingan is only in the early stage of Hanshen, and his cultivation base is very low, but also because Chu Yunsheng has improved a lot since the last time.It's just that the disadvantages of this secret method are becoming more and more obvious. If the question asked by the accused will cause greater emotional fluctuations, the secret method will be broken quickly.
This point is probably irreparable to the current Sheng Sheng Yi Dao Jing, and only by reading all kinds of martial arts in the martial arts world and learning from others can we find further opportunities.
As soon as Ning Pingan fell, Xie Zixuan flew back to the courtyard.
His face darkened, he shook his head and said: "That Dingdan's movement skills are strange, his lightness kung fu is excellent, he is good at hiding and running away, it will take a lot of effort to chase, I don't trust you two, so I didn't chase anymore."
Xie Chengyun was not surprised, he smiled and said: "Who would have thought that there would be a Dingdan master watching Ningpingan? He is determined not to get away. The origin of this person is unknown, and Ning Tiancheng does not have the guts and strength to use this method to set up a trap to catch the murderer behind the scenes. If he really values Ning Pingan so much, he will not let him out of the house. It's more reassuring to keep it under your nose."
Since Xie's family wanted to check Ning's family, Xie Zixuan would not be the only one who came here, but he was the only one on the surface. After all, Xie's family came here only to bring a famous doctor to Ningshou.
In the dark, apart from Xie Zixuan, there are two other guests of the Xie family, both of whom are in the middle stage of Dingdan, known as Feng Lao and Yu Lao. These two have been monitoring the Ning family and the other exploring Jinling City these days.
Xie Chengyun said: "Of course it's good to catch this Dingdan. If you don't catch it, there may be surprises. Second Uncle, Chu Chu and I are going to go to the Longzhang Waterfall outside Jinling City. I will ask Second Uncle to stay here again." One night, after seeing the mantis catching the cicada, it will startle a few orioles."
Xie Zixuan was slightly surprised: "Longzhang Waterfall?"
Xie Chengyun relayed the news from Ningping's mouth.
After hearing this, Xie Zixuan gave a few more instructions, then picked up Ning Ping'an, restored the courtyard, lurked here, and acted separately from Xie Chengyun and Chu Yunsheng.
In the afternoon, the sun slanted and the heat was steaming.
On the Qinhuai River where Jinling City passes through like a jade belt between the white walls and blue tiles, there are several small boats floating up and down, dispelling the sultry cool wind and blowing the weeping willows on the bank, fluttering the light gauze hanging from the bow of the boat, scattering the sparkling water. All of them are filled with the curling fragrance of rouge and the sound of Qinglingling's pipa.
The cicadas sing faintly, the green shade is low, listening to the song of ice melon, and taking a nap with a fan, the heat and scorching heat will disappear several times.
The sons and brothers gathered on the jade mat, leaning on the porcelain pillow, chatting and laughing happily, and exchanged cups and cups.
Looking at the Zheng family's vast mansion on the opposite side of the river, a handsome young man toasted a few lines of poetry, which made everyone laugh.
This man blushed with anger, laughed and scolded everyone, leaned over and pushed away the charming girl who was snuggling up, and wanted to take the pen and ink to compete, but as soon as the good rice paper was rolled out, before the pen fell off, there suddenly appeared a little bit of wintersweet on the paper The bright red.
Brother Young Master was stunned for a moment, thinking that he was too drunk to see, and was about to look again, but suddenly half of his body became heavy, and he turned his head. The smile of the beautiful pipa girl froze, and there was a red line on her neck. When the boat swayed, the red line split , then a head rolled down with a snap.
"Ah-uh!"
Before the terrified scream came out, the throat ruptured.
Brother Young Master held the brush firmly, his eyes wide open, and like the rest of the boat, he fell down and turned into a cold corpse.
The summer poetry meeting, which was lively and pleasant just now, suddenly became silent in the blink of an eye, with corpses strewn all over the place.
The blood gradually accumulated, covering the cabin with a shallow layer.
Behind the shadow of a light veil, the masked man appeared, sat down cross-legged, and pressed his bloody palm into the bloody water. In an instant, a steady stream of blood energy gathered, and with the operation of his exercises, he into the body.
Visible to the naked eye, the wound wounded by the sword energy in the palm healed quickly.
"Sangmen Xing, I remember I said, no matter looking for me or killing people, don't come within ten miles of Zheng's house."
A beautiful figure in plain clothes landed on the bow of the boat, looking coldly at the people in the boat through layers of veils: "Do you think my words are deaf to your ears?"
The masked man nicknamed "Sangmen Xing" who specializes in killing families and killing evils opened his eyes, a sneer flashed in his eyes, and he said without turning his head: "The order of the saint, I naturally dare not refuse, it's just that something happened. It is urgent and extremely important, and it is safe for a certain class not to use the contact means left by the saint, and to come here consciously."
"As for killing people, that's not what I want to kill."
Sangmen Xing flipped his palms over, and his eyes showed sternness: "If I don't absorb some fresh blood energy in time, my soul-breaking palm will be useless from now on. Presumably the saint doesn't want to see someone lose most of her strength and fall to the middle stage of Dingdan. If this is the case, in this Jinling City, there may be no one to protect the way for the saint."
The veil fluttered, and the visitor's gait was ethereal, and he entered the cabin with one step, but it was Ji Ling who was supposed to meditate in Zheng's house.
Ji Ling stared at the blood hole in Sangmen Xing's palm, and his expression moved slightly: "Xie's sword finger?"
A hint of doubt flashed across the face of Sangmenxing, as if he didn't expect that the saintess of the Nine Immortal Palace, who could only fall to the bottom of the White Dragon Ranking, would have such insight and be able to recognize Xie Jiajianzhi at a glance.
He knew that Ji Ling had challenged Xie Chengyun twice and failed miserably, and had learned about the Fuxue Sword, but Xie Chengyun was just a god, and hadn't practiced the sword finger that Xie Jiading Dan had, so Ji Ling could recognize Xie Jia's sword finger. He was quite surprised.If he hadn't fought against Xie Jia Dingdan in the early years, it would be difficult to quickly determine the breath and trace.
"You guard Ning Ping'an, have you met Xie's family?" Ji Ling said.
Sangmenxing frowned and nodded: "Here are two Hanshen boys, and a middle-stage Dingdan. The Ning family is one of the vassals of the Xie family in Shangjing. It is not unusual for the Xie family to be attracted by the matter of Ningshou. The situation in Jinling City may be serious." Change, just to be cautious, the saintess had better contact Elder Mu in the faction, and ask her to come quickly to help us find that strange person and get back the Tianzi Sword."
A strange look flashed across Ji Ling's eyes, but he said resolutely on his face: "If we inform the Nine Immortals Palace, wouldn't it expose our incompetence? When we came to Jiangnan, we not only failed to find a master swordsmith and successfully repaired the Son of Heaven Sword, but were People took the opportunity to snatch it away, but they couldn't find it?"
"Nine Immortals Palace never leaves waste. If news like you and me spreads, the first thing the helpers who come to help us will be to destroy us. Don't gamble on whether Elder Mu can cover the sky with one hand in the faction at the later stage of Dingdan. , cover up this matter, you can't afford to bet!"
Sangmenxing's face darkened, and he had to admit that what Ji Ling said was also the hesitation in his heart.
"Go, go back and have a look first."
Ji Ling thought for a moment, and then made a decision: "If the weirdo is as I thought, and would stare at Ning Pingan, then the fight between Xie Jiading Dan and you will definitely alarm them. Let's go check it out, or leave some clues .”
Sangmen star rolled his eyes, vaguely feeling that his words were a bit hasty and strange, but he couldn't immediately find out what was wrong. He was eager to find clues about the strange man and Tianzijian, so he agreed, and after a little meditation to heal his injuries, he dived with Ji Ling again Go back to the vicinity of the horse market and come to the small courtyard where Ning Pingan lives.
Hidden in the shadow of the corridor eaves, Sangmen Xing looked around the courtyard, and said through a voice transmission: "The doors, windows and floor tiles have been cleaned, and there is no one in the area. Ningping is in the room, seemingly in a coma."
"They didn't take Ning Pingan away, because they were afraid to scare the snake away?"
Ji Ling carefully walked through the courtyard, observed the traces of battle left around, nodded and replied: "It should be that the Xie family saw that you were not the person sent by the Ning family to protect Ning Ping'an. To avoid disturbing the Ning family, we did not Take Ning Ping'an away. It seems that the Xie family came to Jinling this time for another purpose, and they are hiding something from the Ning family to investigate secretly."
With that said, she stepped into the room and came to the bedside to check if there was anything unusual on Ning Ping'an.
Sangmenxing followed in, looking at Ji Lingqing's back, inexplicably feeling that the saintess of the Nine Immortals Palace seemed to be different from before. She is much more arrogant and vicious, not at all like a double ten girl.
"What are you looking at?"
Ji Ling suddenly turned around.
Sangmenxing's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously avoided Xia Jiling's gaze: "What can I see, of course it's Ning on the bed—"
Perfunctory in his mouth, Sangmen Xing turned his eyes and glanced at Ning Pingan casually, then his eyes froze and his face changed drastically: "Saint, be careful!"
Shout out.
Sangmen Xing's fists and palms changed, and black air lingered, but he didn't rush forward immediately.
An extreme sense of danger came to his mind, Ji Ling suddenly turned his head, and saw the bed curtain slightly raised, and a middle-aged man with a sallow complexion and ordinary facial features turned out from behind the old Babu bed.
Holding the knife in his left hand, the man walked out with a calm expression, and when his boots fell to the ground, it was as if he had stepped heavily on the heart of the mourning star, which shocked him as if he was facing an enemy.
The surroundings were dark and prominent, the saber aura was gradually rising, and the strong wind was biting the skin.
The sun was shining brightly outside the house, but the house was suddenly plunged into dark night.Beds, tables and chairs, beams, doors and windows suddenly disappeared like collapses.Sangmenxing's field of vision was empty, except for the middle-aged man, who lifted his knife and raised his eyes, staring at him, his ordinary face gradually tainted with a demon-like phantasmagoria.
"Ding, Dingdan Peak!"
Sangmenxing confirmed the man's aura, and at the same time he cried out, he quickly backed away, melting into the shadow, trying to break out of this vision.
At the juncture of life and death, he couldn't care less about Ji Ling's burden of the divine stage. He hit with all his strength and escaped in order to break the opponent's vision.
Head-to-head is not enough, but when it comes to the ability to escape, even the ordinary peak Dingdan may not be able to catch him.
While flexing his fists, Sangmen Xing scolded Ji Ling in his heart. Ever since he was sent to assist Ji Ling in stealing the Heavenly Sword and looking for a master swordsmith, he has been in bad luck. He either lost the Heavenly Sword, or It's just that he encounters opponents who are much stronger than himself at every turn.
After all, he is also a Dingdan, but in this Jinling City, he is like a mouse that can't see the light. He wants to run away with his head in his arms when he sees everyone, which is really too hateful.
"'Sangmenxing' Luo Shen, enjoys exterminating people and slaughtering civilians. He cultivates the Nine Immortals Palace Magic Code to improve the blood art. He is an evil heretic. The crime is heinous and deserves to be killed."
The middle-aged man glanced at Ji Ling who was standing stiffly by the bed, and didn't take her strength seriously. He only drew a knife with one hand, and walked towards Zangmenxing step by step.
As he stepped forward, the terrifying aura around him was like a mountain uprooted from the ground, extremely powerful and extremely oppressive.
Sangmenxing gritted his teeth and said, "Brother, who are you? Since you know that I am the elder of the Nine Immortals Palace, why don't we sit down and talk about what's going on, why do we have to use knives and guns to hurt our peace?"
The middle-aged man seemed to have never heard of it.
With a clang sound, the long saber was unsheathed, as magnificent as the sky was watching, and fell under the pressure, extremely heavy.
The surrounding airflow suddenly froze, and all the breath was locked, as if all the senses were trapped in the sticky mud, facing the collapse of the sky, and being pulled by the swamp, chaotic and powerless, almost desperate.
However, Sangmen Xing is still Dingdan after all.
Seeing that this person was determined to kill him, and he couldn't break through the blockade of the vision to escape, he also turned around brazenly and slashed out with a palm.
"Although I am not as strong as you, if you want to kill me, it will not be easy!"
The group of snakes neighed, and the clouds surged.
Sangmen Xing Tan's palm rotates, grasps and twists countless palm strengths, clenches into a fist, and strikes out, as if piercing through space and distance in an instant, one breath at a time, the fist light rushes out like a whirlwind, and hits On the long knife that was cut out.
With a shock of the long knife, countless afterimages were drawn, and the irresistible deterrence and darkness became stronger, as if a giant stomped on it, and the knife was heavy and terrifying, which was in line with the law.
The surrounding darkness was like a tide, coming layer after layer, frantically beating the raging snakes, and swallowing them one by one.
Under the irresistible light of the tyrannical sword, the light of the fist and the whirlwind disintegrated, and the face of Zangmen Xing was ferocious. With a low growl, he turned his fist into a palm again, smashing the afterimage of the long knife that seemed to be falling down like a real one.
When the last afterimage shattered, he turned his wrist suddenly, and the jade white in his palm faded from gold and stone to soft water.The hands were twisted and pushed out, the water wave shook, and the blade of the long knife was imprisoned.
Sangmenxing withdrew, flicked his ten fingers, and the stern knife light flashed inch by inch from between his fingers, shaking and clanging.
The knife and the palm stick together, and the internal forces resist each other.
"Brother, are you willing to sit down and have a good talk now?" Sangmen Xing raised his chin a little bit complacently.
The middle-aged man glanced at Sangmen Xing lightly, with a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
The next moment, there was a strong wind all over him, and the internal energy that was originally like a river suddenly turned into a torrential flood that burst the embankment. The long knife scattered like a shadow from Sangmen Xing's fingers, and then condensed on his forehead in the blink of an eye.
"you--!"
Sangmenxing couldn't react in time, and wanted to dodge, but it was too late, so he could only widen his eyes in astonishment, and let a stream of warm blood drip down from his forehead and bridge of nose.
The light of the sword sealed the whole body, and the last trick that Sangmen Xing held back was aborted, and a little silver light fell from his fingers, all of which were poisoned silver needles.
The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes slightly, the blade trembled, and he cut off his head.
Sangmen Xing's head spilled blood and flew high. The middle-aged man raised his hand slightly, grabbed the head, and turned around to interrogate the junior who was Han Shenqi.
However, just when he was about to turn around, a hand lightly pressed on the top of his head, making him stiff and suddenly froze.
Great fear seized his mind!
He is the pinnacle of Dingdan, and the entire martial arts world under Youxian can let him come and go, no one can stop him, but now, someone can appear behind him without a sound, penetrate his body's protective energy, and press his palm. In his heavenly spirit, what kind of person and strength would this be?
He dared not think about it.
"Who are you from?"
The soft female voice was close to the ear, asking in a low voice, but there was no murderous intent.
Hearing the sound, the middle-aged man was startled, turned his face in disbelief, and blurted out: "You are not Zhao Lingrui, nor Ji Ling from Nine Immortals Palace... Who are you? Where are you from Youxian?"
Those slightly dilated pupils reflected a beautiful face, plain clothes and red lips, with an arrogant expression, it was none other than Ji Ling who had been standing by the bed just now.
Seeing the astonishment, bewilderment, and shock in the eyes of the middle-aged man, Ji Ling showed joy on his face, and smiled sweetly: "I know Zhao Lingrui, could it be that he was sent by the Zheng family?"
"But apart from the ancestral house behind the Longzhang Waterfall, there is no place in the Zheng family that I have never been to. There is no such a peak Dingdan as you in it. So, who are you, and who sent you to the Zheng family?"
The middle-aged man's heartbeat was frantic, and he felt a sense of suffocation. Facing this beautiful girl, he couldn't see the slightest admiration. He only felt that he was facing a beast with fangs and a bloody mouth. .
He looked directly into Ji Ling's eyes, and asked without answering: "There are 22 immortals in the world, as long as they break through, there will be visions of heaven and earth, which cannot be concealed. Who are you?"
Ji Ling looked at the middle-aged man, and the smile on his lips suddenly turned cold: "This self-possessed appearance is really annoying."
She slowly tightened her fingers on the top of the middle-aged man's head.
"Your life is hanging by a thread, and you still have the mind to tell me what to say. It seems that you don't care about life and death. You are probably a dead man. You plan to leave a message before you die or pass it on in some way to make your master guard against me. Can raise The Zheng family doesn't have such a skill for a dead man at the peak of Dingdan."
After a pause, she suddenly leaned closer to the middle-aged man's face, staring closely at his eyes: "Are you from Li Wu?"
The middle-aged man frowned and said nothing.
But she read the answer she wanted from those eyes, and her five fingers turned into sharp thorns, which instantly penetrated into the top of the middle-aged man's head, and blood flowed out.
The middle-aged man raised his eyes abruptly, and the girl's expression of crying and laughing was reflected in his loose pupils.
He seemed to be stunned for a moment. His lips trembled and he uttered a very soft word. Immediately, blood ran down his cheeks, and he fell on his back, no longer breathing.
Ji Ling pulled out his finger, shook it casually, walked slowly to the head of Sangmenxing who fell on the ground, stretched out his embroidered shoe and kicked it.
At the same time, her face distorted for a while, from a look of madness and misery that seemed to be crying and laughing, to sudden panic and panic without warning, she cried out: "Why did Elder Luo die?"
Her complexion changed slightly, she found the only intact bronze mirror in the messy house, and immediately rushed over, looked into the mirror, and said angrily: "Mother, you killed Luo Shen? How could you kill him, he It's the elder of Nine Immortals Palace, Ding Dan with the highest cultivation beside me, if you kill him, who will protect me in the future, and how can I explain to the sect?"
Reflected in the bronze mirror, Ji Ling's face changed again, instead of anxious and angry expression, he only sighed softly: "Little Ling, I didn't kill the man, Li Wu sent the peak Dingdan to come, Luo Shen is too weak to resist, Then he died. You also know that my realm and strength are difficult to stabilize, sometimes high and sometimes low, and the hidden danger is huge. The situation was urgent just now, and my strength is insufficient, so there is really no way to save it."
"But fortunately, Luo Shen's death was delayed, so I had the opportunity to perform the immortal strike, otherwise I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to save you."
"Besides, even if this Sangmen star is not dead at this time, I will definitely kill him before you return to the Nine Immortals Palace. He knows too much, and he has noticed the abnormality between you and me."
Ji Ling's expression was in a trance, most of the anger was gone, and he turned to look at another corpse in the room: "Is this the peak Dingdan? Is he sent by my father?"
With a change in his face, Ji Ling said coldly again: "He is not your father."
Ji Ling didn't want to quarrel over this issue, so he didn't bring it up again, but said: "Mother, then Li Wu sent such a master to Jinling, and he still pays attention to the situation around Ningpingan, what exactly is he trying to do? He is an emperor, and he still cares about Are these trivial matters in Jinling City?"
"Or, he found out that the Son of Heaven Sword was missing, and he came to chase me down?"
Speaking of this, Ji Ling's expression immediately became tense: "Mother, why don't we look for some swordsmith masters in the Central Plains, and it's the same when we go back to the Western Regions. Let's take the Tianzi Sword and go back to the Nine Immortals Palace first. I always feel that It's too dangerous here!"
In the next moment, the nervousness on Ji Ling's face turned into coldness and sullenness: "A little danger will drive you back? You are so timid, what are you going to use to challenge Xie Cheng, who is now at the top of the list, for the third time?" cloud?"
"Besides, even if Li Wu finds out that the Son of Heaven Sword is lost, he will never track you down. I have promised the Palace Master that you will return to the sect with the fully repaired Son of Heaven Sword, and then I will beg you nine times." Immortal Palace’s No. [-] Town School’s unique skills are much better than the incomplete magic skills you have learned at this time, mother is for your own good.”
"Mother has already made an exception and secretly entrusted the fractal technique to come to help you. This matter must not be abandoned halfway!"
Ji Ling wasn't facing the bronze mirror directly, so he didn't see the teasing and murderous intent that didn't belong to him but was aimed at him that flashed in his eyes just now.
She had no choice but to keep her mouth shut.
The biological mother who brought her back to the Nine Immortals Palace when she killed her teacher and defected back then, when she had nowhere to go, besides being a little mysterious, unstable in strength, occasionally insane and difficult to control herself, most of the time she was thinking of her.
"Mother, what should we do next? Does Ning Pingan need to send someone to look after him?"
Ji Ling asked in a daze.
"No, he is useless. Kill him and go back to Zheng's house."
Thick sycamore branches and leaves covered most of the courtyard wall, tens of feet away behind the wall, behind a piece of eaves, Xie Zixuan withdrew Ding Dan's wiretapping technique, suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were icy cold.
He raised his eyes and looked at the slender figure flying out of the dilapidated small courtyard, his palms clenched into fists, firmly restraining his murderous intent and hatred.
"Wood, Yue, Xin! It really is you!"
Xie Zixuan slammed his fist on the wall, and the wall let out a mournful cry.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Chu Yunsheng and Xie Chengyun had already traveled all the way out of Jinling City and arrived at the place where Ningshou's martial arts competition was held on Dongsheng Mountain.
The two followed the direction that Ning Pingan had given, and while scouting along the way, they headed towards Longzhang Waterfall.
When they arrived at a woodland near Longzhang Waterfall, the two found traces of chasing and fighting all the way.
According to these traces, it can be seen that what Ning Pingan said is not wrong. The woman in red who is suspected to be Ji Ling is indeed crushing those men in black in terms of strength. The mastermind was also intentional, and it seemed to have another purpose.
If so, what Ji Ling said about staying in Zheng's house and looking for Zheng Yuchen just to chase that strange man seems a bit contradictory.
"With the power of heaven and earth remaining, this is definitely not a battle in the divine stage."
Xie Chengyun walked in the forest, frowned and said: "Isn't that woman Ji Ling?"
Chu Yunsheng shook his head and said, "It's not appropriate to conclude prematurely. I didn't know Ji Ling before, but the Ji Ling you mentioned has a different temperament from what I saw in Zheng's house. It may be a disguise, or it may be Another strange thing. If you look further ahead, the Longzhang Waterfall is coming.”
Xie Chengyun nodded in agreement, and the two restrained their movements, moved lightly, and were more careful, like two gentle breezes passing through the forest and leaves, drifting forward.
Soon, the two found a dry and mottled bloodstain, which was mostly blurred after too long, but they could still confirm that this was the place where Ning Shou was found.
A few steps ahead of this place is the majestic Longzhang Waterfall.
The impassioned water roars down from the green cliffs, like thousands of troops, hitting the rocks, and the sound it makes is like the roar of a giant lion, which is deafening.But the water splashed into the stream, but it calmed down in an instant, and slowly gathered and flowed, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, sunlight and tree shadows, like a piece of pure and beautiful emerald.
"Passing the cliff on the waterfall is the mine vein of the Zheng family. There are people guarding it, and they should not be approached normally." Xie Chengyun said.
Chu Yunsheng immediately realized the loophole, frowned and said: "Since there are people guarding this place, it is impossible for the Zheng family guards to be unaware of the fight happening here."
The two looked at each other tacitly, one after the other, they climbed up the cliff, their lightness kung fu was perfected, and they stepped on the water upstream.
After half a cup of tea, the two of them were wet and climbed up the cliff.
There is a steep slope extending from the front of the cliff. There are many stone forests on the slope, and there is a basin below the slope. The edge of the basin is facing a canyon.
Looking across the stone forest, above the basin and the canyon, there are figures swaying all over the place. There are groups of people in blue clothes patrolling. Not surprisingly, they should be the guards of the Zheng family.
Behind these guards, there is a small stockade, and the guards standing on the wooden tower are watching from afar.
If it wasn't for Chu Yunsheng and Xie Chengyun's lightness kungfu and being cautious, they would have concealed their bodies the first time they climbed the cliff, and they might be discovered.
Chu Yunsheng scanned the guards intently, and immediately noticed something strange.
"All of them are the guards of Hanshenqi."
He leaned against a boulder and entered the secret passage through sound transmission.
Xie Chengyun looked at the stockade, his expression changed slightly, and he replied: "Even the Xie family is not rich enough to send so many Hanshenqi guards to guard a small mine. It seems that this place is not as simple as just a mine. "
"Longzhang Waterfall, Longzhang Waterfall... Sure enough, there is no wrong name."
The tone seems to be different.
Chu Yunsheng looked at Xie Chengyun's expression, thought of Zheng's family, thought of Ji Ling, thought of that Emperor Li Wu, and vaguely guessed something.
While the two were scouting and watching, a movement suddenly came from the village.
On the rock wall of the canyon near the basin, there seemed to be steps dug. At this time, a group of young and strong laborers were climbing up panting, carrying huge baskets full of ore.
Seeing them coming, the closed gate of the stockade slowly opened, and ores piled up like hills appeared inside the gate.
There are tens of hundreds of old and weak women and children sitting around these hills, their bodies covered in black, covered in dust and smoke, and they are holding a strange compass in their hands, picking ore.
The young laborers came in, unloaded all the ore in the baskets, and returned to the canyon.
After a while, more than a dozen children stood up, carried small baskets, put some picked ores into it, and walked towards a low mountain behind the stockade. There seemed to be a cave there.
When the children came back from the cave, the gate of the village creaked again and closed again.
Chu Yunsheng withdrew his gaze, recalling the scene of the compass pointer shaking with Hanshenqi's eyesight, and said: "The compass should be searching for a certain kind of breath contained in the ore, and those who have that kind of breath was picked out and sent into the low mountain."
He looked at Xie Chengyun.
The eyes of the two met, and Chu Yunsheng asked, "Is the dragon in Longzhang Waterfall a dragon from the dragon veins of the Central Plains?"
The dignified look on Xie Chengyun's face dissipated a little, he looked at Chu Yunsheng, raised his eyebrows slightly, his pupils were dark, and laughed softly: "Chuchu, Li Wu knows that the emperor's sword that Li Youzhen hid in the forbidden area of the palace is thrown away. But he didn’t know that it was Ji Ling who stole the Tianzi Sword, and he didn’t know that the reason why Ji Ling was able to take away the Tianzi Sword without disturbing the palace formation was because of my Xie family’s tricks.”
Chu Yunsheng was startled, sighed in his heart, and said, "When we were in Beijing, the Xie family didn't know that Ji Ling might have something to do with Mu Yuexin, so why did they help her?"
Xie Chengyun smiled and said: "At the beginning, Li Youzhen secretly slaughtered countless sword-making families, found the Son of Heaven Sword, and sealed it in a forbidden area on the surface, strictly prohibiting Li Wu from getting close to coveting, but in fact, she just wanted to use this to stimulate Arouse Li Wu's indignant heart, and temper Li Wu. If Li Wu can really break through the forbidden area, mend and tame the Tianzi Sword, it is equivalent to passing Li Youzhen's test, and Li Youzhen will help him take the last step, melt into the Tianzi Sword, and become Li Wu. The second Youxian in the family."
"If there is such a day, what will the Xie family use to revenge? Li Youzhen, who is at the top of the ascension list and number one in the world, is already hopeless."
Chu Yunsheng raised his hand, held Xie Chengyun's palm with slightly protruding veins, and said in a low voice: "Longzhang Waterfall, if it is the dragon veins of the Central Plains, does it mean that Li Wu no longer looks for the lost Tianzi Sword, but intends to dry up the dragon veins and start a new life?" Forge a handle?"
"No accident, that's it."
Xie Chengyun slowly loosened his fingers, and quietly pressed his palm to Chu Yunsheng's: "The dragon's veins are exhausted, and the world is in chaos. Whether it is for family hatred or for innocent people, Li Wu cannot be allowed to forge swords. If you count , this move is really forced by the Xie family, I can't just sit idly by, I have to send a letter to Shangjing quickly."
"The aristocratic family restricts the royal family, and the Zheng family will never betray the aristocratic family easily. There may be something wrong with Zheng Yuchen."
Chu Yun stated Bai Xie Chengyun's meaning, and said lightly: "After I go back, I will investigate. Besides, I have to meet another person to thank my family."
Xie Chengyun raised his eyes and said clearly: "Are you going to see Ji Ling?"
Chu Yunsheng nodded.
Xie Chengyun was silent for a moment, then suddenly said: "I didn't mention a word at noon, but now I suddenly tell you so many secrets, and lead you into the position of Xie's family...Chuchu, you are not afraid that I knew that Longzhang Waterfall is different, yes Deliberately bringing you here, so that you can see this scene, fall into a trap, unable to get out, and can only be used by me?"
Chu Yunsheng half-knelt behind the boulder, amused in his heart, but slowly raised his arms, and gently hugged Xie Chengyun, who was leaning against the stone wall and was covered in damp.
There are still tiny drops of water on the cheeks.
Chu Yunsheng's true energy circulated, and the water marks on the two people's bodies were evaporated. A thin white mist rose up and drifted away with the wind blowing from the edge of the cliff.
In the hazy fog, Chu Yun said: "If you want, you can use me. But Mr. Xie, there is a price
Chu Yunsheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he turned his head and looked at Xie Chengyun.
At this moment, they both thought of the phantom of Ji Ling in a red dress that Chu Yunsheng met on the Rainy Night Mountain Road when he was subjected to Li Daitao's stiffening method. Could it be that the attack on Ningshou had something to do with Ji Ling?
"What does this woman in red look like?" Chu Yunsheng asked.
Ning Ping recalled in a trance, with longing and admiration vaguely on her face: "She has long eyebrows and phoenix eyes, is tall, her appearance is delicate and beautiful like a peony, and she is very heroic, but her temper seems to be a bit unruly, she has a bad temper, and she even curses. Give me a few words..."
Ning Shou's valet is quite literate and fluent in words, and speaks eloquently.
Listening to the description in this text, Xie Chengyun couldn't help but a smile appeared in his eyes. After narrowing his eyes at Chu Yunsheng, the senior actress who played the saint beside him, he looked at Ning Ping'an again, with a soft voice. Slowly, he said persuasively, "Where did this woman tell you to go, and what did you see?"
"She told me...to go, to Longzhang Waterfall on the south side of Dongsheng Mountain..."
Ning Pingan said honestly: "After the martial arts competition, the young master left angrily. I was worried about the young master, so I chased after him... When I chased him to a mountain stream, I couldn't find the young master. Then I heard the sound of fighting, far away , I thought the young master ran into someone who took advantage of the fire and ran in that direction in a hurry."
"Running over, I didn't see the young master, I only saw the woman in red chasing and killing a group of men in black."
"There were more than a dozen men in black, all of whom were very skilled in martial arts, but no matter what weapons they used or what moves they used, the woman could kill one of them with a single palm, without any effort. She chased those men, as if Not in a hurry to kill them, but like a cat playing with a mouse, deliberately let it play."
"I hid in the forest and watched from a distance. I didn't dare to breathe, but I was still spotted by the leading man in black—a black wind! A black light blew over. I couldn't breathe, and I was about to die! "
"Then... she saved me, and the man in black took the opportunity to escape."
"She didn't go after her. She stayed and asked me if I was a member of the Ning family. I agreed, and she took me to the bottom of the Longzhang Waterfall. There was a piece of rocks and woods there, and the young master was lying in the middle of the woods, covered all over Blood, most of the clothes were torn, and half a ghost face was drawn with blood on the heart..."
"The young master is still angry, but he can't wake up no matter what. I was terrified and wanted to ask my sister in red for help, but when I turned my head, I couldn't see her."
"I wanted to go behind the Longzhang Waterfall with my young master on my back. That's where the Zheng family's mining area is located. I might be able to find the help of the Zheng family guarding this place. But the master and the Zheng family had a bad relationship, and the young master was seriously injured. I was afraid that the Zheng family would kill me. I didn't dare to take this risk, so I thought about it, so I had no choice but to go down the mountain first. On the way down the mountain, I met a few good men who reported the letter to the mansion for me, and only then did someone come to pick me up and the young master back..."
Longzhang Waterfall, the Man in Black, the Zheng Family Mining Area, the picture of the ghost face on the heart.
These words were explained in such a way that Chu Yunsheng was a little unexpected. In just a few sentences, one can vaguely see how deep the water is here.
"After returning to the mansion, did your young master wake up? How did Patriarch Ning and the rest of the Ning family behave? In addition, you came here and were guarded because you were recuperating from your injuries, or did you find that Ning Shou had the same kind of behavior as before? What's so different?" Xie Chengyun continued to ask.
"The young master is not crazy!"
Almost without thinking this time, Ning Pingan blurted out a little excitedly: "The young master just got injured and hurt his brain. He just woke up and didn't see Ping An clearly, so he punched me Ping An... The Patriarch knocked the young master unconscious and called out Many doctors came, and later the young master woke up in the middle of the night and recognized him."
"The young master hurt me, he was very guilty, and he said that his meridians were disabled, he could no longer practice martial arts, and he didn't need a sword servant in the future, so he begged the master to return my body contract, give me 50 taels of silver, and send me out of the mansion."
"I didn't want to leave, but I was driven away anyway. I rented the yard here, and I just lived here until the young master changed his mind and asked me to go back. I didn't move 50 taels, I kept it, and waited to return it to the master and Young master. No one is guarding me, I am the only one living here, but the young master keeps sending people to deliver rice grains..."
"The young master is injured, and the Patriarch is with him every day, and he is very concerned about the young master. The masters of the second and third bedrooms took the opportunity to send their outstanding sons and daughters to take care of family affairs, hoping to seize the position of the future Patriarch. Some chaos was suppressed forcefully by the Patriarch."
"They are all dreaming. Even if there is no young master, the head of the family is also in his prime, and he can still be the family for at least ten or twenty years. How can it be their turn?"
"Besides, I believe that the young master will definitely get better, he will definitely be better..."
Ning Ping murmured, her half-drooped eyelids twitched twice.
Seeing this, Chu Yunsheng quickly raised his hand and pointed at Ning Ping'an's neck side by side, making him faint again before the secret method failed.
This time, the effect of this fantasy-like secret method is much better than last time. This is not only because Ning Pingan is only in the early stage of Hanshen, and his cultivation base is very low, but also because Chu Yunsheng has improved a lot since the last time.It's just that the disadvantages of this secret method are becoming more and more obvious. If the question asked by the accused will cause greater emotional fluctuations, the secret method will be broken quickly.
This point is probably irreparable to the current Sheng Sheng Yi Dao Jing, and only by reading all kinds of martial arts in the martial arts world and learning from others can we find further opportunities.
As soon as Ning Pingan fell, Xie Zixuan flew back to the courtyard.
His face darkened, he shook his head and said: "That Dingdan's movement skills are strange, his lightness kung fu is excellent, he is good at hiding and running away, it will take a lot of effort to chase, I don't trust you two, so I didn't chase anymore."
Xie Chengyun was not surprised, he smiled and said: "Who would have thought that there would be a Dingdan master watching Ningpingan? He is determined not to get away. The origin of this person is unknown, and Ning Tiancheng does not have the guts and strength to use this method to set up a trap to catch the murderer behind the scenes. If he really values Ning Pingan so much, he will not let him out of the house. It's more reassuring to keep it under your nose."
Since Xie's family wanted to check Ning's family, Xie Zixuan would not be the only one who came here, but he was the only one on the surface. After all, Xie's family came here only to bring a famous doctor to Ningshou.
In the dark, apart from Xie Zixuan, there are two other guests of the Xie family, both of whom are in the middle stage of Dingdan, known as Feng Lao and Yu Lao. These two have been monitoring the Ning family and the other exploring Jinling City these days.
Xie Chengyun said: "Of course it's good to catch this Dingdan. If you don't catch it, there may be surprises. Second Uncle, Chu Chu and I are going to go to the Longzhang Waterfall outside Jinling City. I will ask Second Uncle to stay here again." One night, after seeing the mantis catching the cicada, it will startle a few orioles."
Xie Zixuan was slightly surprised: "Longzhang Waterfall?"
Xie Chengyun relayed the news from Ningping's mouth.
After hearing this, Xie Zixuan gave a few more instructions, then picked up Ning Ping'an, restored the courtyard, lurked here, and acted separately from Xie Chengyun and Chu Yunsheng.
In the afternoon, the sun slanted and the heat was steaming.
On the Qinhuai River where Jinling City passes through like a jade belt between the white walls and blue tiles, there are several small boats floating up and down, dispelling the sultry cool wind and blowing the weeping willows on the bank, fluttering the light gauze hanging from the bow of the boat, scattering the sparkling water. All of them are filled with the curling fragrance of rouge and the sound of Qinglingling's pipa.
The cicadas sing faintly, the green shade is low, listening to the song of ice melon, and taking a nap with a fan, the heat and scorching heat will disappear several times.
The sons and brothers gathered on the jade mat, leaning on the porcelain pillow, chatting and laughing happily, and exchanged cups and cups.
Looking at the Zheng family's vast mansion on the opposite side of the river, a handsome young man toasted a few lines of poetry, which made everyone laugh.
This man blushed with anger, laughed and scolded everyone, leaned over and pushed away the charming girl who was snuggling up, and wanted to take the pen and ink to compete, but as soon as the good rice paper was rolled out, before the pen fell off, there suddenly appeared a little bit of wintersweet on the paper The bright red.
Brother Young Master was stunned for a moment, thinking that he was too drunk to see, and was about to look again, but suddenly half of his body became heavy, and he turned his head. The smile of the beautiful pipa girl froze, and there was a red line on her neck. When the boat swayed, the red line split , then a head rolled down with a snap.
"Ah-uh!"
Before the terrified scream came out, the throat ruptured.
Brother Young Master held the brush firmly, his eyes wide open, and like the rest of the boat, he fell down and turned into a cold corpse.
The summer poetry meeting, which was lively and pleasant just now, suddenly became silent in the blink of an eye, with corpses strewn all over the place.
The blood gradually accumulated, covering the cabin with a shallow layer.
Behind the shadow of a light veil, the masked man appeared, sat down cross-legged, and pressed his bloody palm into the bloody water. In an instant, a steady stream of blood energy gathered, and with the operation of his exercises, he into the body.
Visible to the naked eye, the wound wounded by the sword energy in the palm healed quickly.
"Sangmen Xing, I remember I said, no matter looking for me or killing people, don't come within ten miles of Zheng's house."
A beautiful figure in plain clothes landed on the bow of the boat, looking coldly at the people in the boat through layers of veils: "Do you think my words are deaf to your ears?"
The masked man nicknamed "Sangmen Xing" who specializes in killing families and killing evils opened his eyes, a sneer flashed in his eyes, and he said without turning his head: "The order of the saint, I naturally dare not refuse, it's just that something happened. It is urgent and extremely important, and it is safe for a certain class not to use the contact means left by the saint, and to come here consciously."
"As for killing people, that's not what I want to kill."
Sangmen Xing flipped his palms over, and his eyes showed sternness: "If I don't absorb some fresh blood energy in time, my soul-breaking palm will be useless from now on. Presumably the saint doesn't want to see someone lose most of her strength and fall to the middle stage of Dingdan. If this is the case, in this Jinling City, there may be no one to protect the way for the saint."
The veil fluttered, and the visitor's gait was ethereal, and he entered the cabin with one step, but it was Ji Ling who was supposed to meditate in Zheng's house.
Ji Ling stared at the blood hole in Sangmen Xing's palm, and his expression moved slightly: "Xie's sword finger?"
A hint of doubt flashed across the face of Sangmenxing, as if he didn't expect that the saintess of the Nine Immortal Palace, who could only fall to the bottom of the White Dragon Ranking, would have such insight and be able to recognize Xie Jiajianzhi at a glance.
He knew that Ji Ling had challenged Xie Chengyun twice and failed miserably, and had learned about the Fuxue Sword, but Xie Chengyun was just a god, and hadn't practiced the sword finger that Xie Jiading Dan had, so Ji Ling could recognize Xie Jia's sword finger. He was quite surprised.If he hadn't fought against Xie Jia Dingdan in the early years, it would be difficult to quickly determine the breath and trace.
"You guard Ning Ping'an, have you met Xie's family?" Ji Ling said.
Sangmenxing frowned and nodded: "Here are two Hanshen boys, and a middle-stage Dingdan. The Ning family is one of the vassals of the Xie family in Shangjing. It is not unusual for the Xie family to be attracted by the matter of Ningshou. The situation in Jinling City may be serious." Change, just to be cautious, the saintess had better contact Elder Mu in the faction, and ask her to come quickly to help us find that strange person and get back the Tianzi Sword."
A strange look flashed across Ji Ling's eyes, but he said resolutely on his face: "If we inform the Nine Immortals Palace, wouldn't it expose our incompetence? When we came to Jiangnan, we not only failed to find a master swordsmith and successfully repaired the Son of Heaven Sword, but were People took the opportunity to snatch it away, but they couldn't find it?"
"Nine Immortals Palace never leaves waste. If news like you and me spreads, the first thing the helpers who come to help us will be to destroy us. Don't gamble on whether Elder Mu can cover the sky with one hand in the faction at the later stage of Dingdan. , cover up this matter, you can't afford to bet!"
Sangmenxing's face darkened, and he had to admit that what Ji Ling said was also the hesitation in his heart.
"Go, go back and have a look first."
Ji Ling thought for a moment, and then made a decision: "If the weirdo is as I thought, and would stare at Ning Pingan, then the fight between Xie Jiading Dan and you will definitely alarm them. Let's go check it out, or leave some clues .”
Sangmen star rolled his eyes, vaguely feeling that his words were a bit hasty and strange, but he couldn't immediately find out what was wrong. He was eager to find clues about the strange man and Tianzijian, so he agreed, and after a little meditation to heal his injuries, he dived with Ji Ling again Go back to the vicinity of the horse market and come to the small courtyard where Ning Pingan lives.
Hidden in the shadow of the corridor eaves, Sangmen Xing looked around the courtyard, and said through a voice transmission: "The doors, windows and floor tiles have been cleaned, and there is no one in the area. Ningping is in the room, seemingly in a coma."
"They didn't take Ning Pingan away, because they were afraid to scare the snake away?"
Ji Ling carefully walked through the courtyard, observed the traces of battle left around, nodded and replied: "It should be that the Xie family saw that you were not the person sent by the Ning family to protect Ning Ping'an. To avoid disturbing the Ning family, we did not Take Ning Ping'an away. It seems that the Xie family came to Jinling this time for another purpose, and they are hiding something from the Ning family to investigate secretly."
With that said, she stepped into the room and came to the bedside to check if there was anything unusual on Ning Ping'an.
Sangmenxing followed in, looking at Ji Lingqing's back, inexplicably feeling that the saintess of the Nine Immortals Palace seemed to be different from before. She is much more arrogant and vicious, not at all like a double ten girl.
"What are you looking at?"
Ji Ling suddenly turned around.
Sangmenxing's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously avoided Xia Jiling's gaze: "What can I see, of course it's Ning on the bed—"
Perfunctory in his mouth, Sangmen Xing turned his eyes and glanced at Ning Pingan casually, then his eyes froze and his face changed drastically: "Saint, be careful!"
Shout out.
Sangmen Xing's fists and palms changed, and black air lingered, but he didn't rush forward immediately.
An extreme sense of danger came to his mind, Ji Ling suddenly turned his head, and saw the bed curtain slightly raised, and a middle-aged man with a sallow complexion and ordinary facial features turned out from behind the old Babu bed.
Holding the knife in his left hand, the man walked out with a calm expression, and when his boots fell to the ground, it was as if he had stepped heavily on the heart of the mourning star, which shocked him as if he was facing an enemy.
The surroundings were dark and prominent, the saber aura was gradually rising, and the strong wind was biting the skin.
The sun was shining brightly outside the house, but the house was suddenly plunged into dark night.Beds, tables and chairs, beams, doors and windows suddenly disappeared like collapses.Sangmenxing's field of vision was empty, except for the middle-aged man, who lifted his knife and raised his eyes, staring at him, his ordinary face gradually tainted with a demon-like phantasmagoria.
"Ding, Dingdan Peak!"
Sangmenxing confirmed the man's aura, and at the same time he cried out, he quickly backed away, melting into the shadow, trying to break out of this vision.
At the juncture of life and death, he couldn't care less about Ji Ling's burden of the divine stage. He hit with all his strength and escaped in order to break the opponent's vision.
Head-to-head is not enough, but when it comes to the ability to escape, even the ordinary peak Dingdan may not be able to catch him.
While flexing his fists, Sangmen Xing scolded Ji Ling in his heart. Ever since he was sent to assist Ji Ling in stealing the Heavenly Sword and looking for a master swordsmith, he has been in bad luck. He either lost the Heavenly Sword, or It's just that he encounters opponents who are much stronger than himself at every turn.
After all, he is also a Dingdan, but in this Jinling City, he is like a mouse that can't see the light. He wants to run away with his head in his arms when he sees everyone, which is really too hateful.
"'Sangmenxing' Luo Shen, enjoys exterminating people and slaughtering civilians. He cultivates the Nine Immortals Palace Magic Code to improve the blood art. He is an evil heretic. The crime is heinous and deserves to be killed."
The middle-aged man glanced at Ji Ling who was standing stiffly by the bed, and didn't take her strength seriously. He only drew a knife with one hand, and walked towards Zangmenxing step by step.
As he stepped forward, the terrifying aura around him was like a mountain uprooted from the ground, extremely powerful and extremely oppressive.
Sangmenxing gritted his teeth and said, "Brother, who are you? Since you know that I am the elder of the Nine Immortals Palace, why don't we sit down and talk about what's going on, why do we have to use knives and guns to hurt our peace?"
The middle-aged man seemed to have never heard of it.
With a clang sound, the long saber was unsheathed, as magnificent as the sky was watching, and fell under the pressure, extremely heavy.
The surrounding airflow suddenly froze, and all the breath was locked, as if all the senses were trapped in the sticky mud, facing the collapse of the sky, and being pulled by the swamp, chaotic and powerless, almost desperate.
However, Sangmen Xing is still Dingdan after all.
Seeing that this person was determined to kill him, and he couldn't break through the blockade of the vision to escape, he also turned around brazenly and slashed out with a palm.
"Although I am not as strong as you, if you want to kill me, it will not be easy!"
The group of snakes neighed, and the clouds surged.
Sangmen Xing Tan's palm rotates, grasps and twists countless palm strengths, clenches into a fist, and strikes out, as if piercing through space and distance in an instant, one breath at a time, the fist light rushes out like a whirlwind, and hits On the long knife that was cut out.
With a shock of the long knife, countless afterimages were drawn, and the irresistible deterrence and darkness became stronger, as if a giant stomped on it, and the knife was heavy and terrifying, which was in line with the law.
The surrounding darkness was like a tide, coming layer after layer, frantically beating the raging snakes, and swallowing them one by one.
Under the irresistible light of the tyrannical sword, the light of the fist and the whirlwind disintegrated, and the face of Zangmen Xing was ferocious. With a low growl, he turned his fist into a palm again, smashing the afterimage of the long knife that seemed to be falling down like a real one.
When the last afterimage shattered, he turned his wrist suddenly, and the jade white in his palm faded from gold and stone to soft water.The hands were twisted and pushed out, the water wave shook, and the blade of the long knife was imprisoned.
Sangmenxing withdrew, flicked his ten fingers, and the stern knife light flashed inch by inch from between his fingers, shaking and clanging.
The knife and the palm stick together, and the internal forces resist each other.
"Brother, are you willing to sit down and have a good talk now?" Sangmen Xing raised his chin a little bit complacently.
The middle-aged man glanced at Sangmen Xing lightly, with a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
The next moment, there was a strong wind all over him, and the internal energy that was originally like a river suddenly turned into a torrential flood that burst the embankment. The long knife scattered like a shadow from Sangmen Xing's fingers, and then condensed on his forehead in the blink of an eye.
"you--!"
Sangmenxing couldn't react in time, and wanted to dodge, but it was too late, so he could only widen his eyes in astonishment, and let a stream of warm blood drip down from his forehead and bridge of nose.
The light of the sword sealed the whole body, and the last trick that Sangmen Xing held back was aborted, and a little silver light fell from his fingers, all of which were poisoned silver needles.
The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes slightly, the blade trembled, and he cut off his head.
Sangmen Xing's head spilled blood and flew high. The middle-aged man raised his hand slightly, grabbed the head, and turned around to interrogate the junior who was Han Shenqi.
However, just when he was about to turn around, a hand lightly pressed on the top of his head, making him stiff and suddenly froze.
Great fear seized his mind!
He is the pinnacle of Dingdan, and the entire martial arts world under Youxian can let him come and go, no one can stop him, but now, someone can appear behind him without a sound, penetrate his body's protective energy, and press his palm. In his heavenly spirit, what kind of person and strength would this be?
He dared not think about it.
"Who are you from?"
The soft female voice was close to the ear, asking in a low voice, but there was no murderous intent.
Hearing the sound, the middle-aged man was startled, turned his face in disbelief, and blurted out: "You are not Zhao Lingrui, nor Ji Ling from Nine Immortals Palace... Who are you? Where are you from Youxian?"
Those slightly dilated pupils reflected a beautiful face, plain clothes and red lips, with an arrogant expression, it was none other than Ji Ling who had been standing by the bed just now.
Seeing the astonishment, bewilderment, and shock in the eyes of the middle-aged man, Ji Ling showed joy on his face, and smiled sweetly: "I know Zhao Lingrui, could it be that he was sent by the Zheng family?"
"But apart from the ancestral house behind the Longzhang Waterfall, there is no place in the Zheng family that I have never been to. There is no such a peak Dingdan as you in it. So, who are you, and who sent you to the Zheng family?"
The middle-aged man's heartbeat was frantic, and he felt a sense of suffocation. Facing this beautiful girl, he couldn't see the slightest admiration. He only felt that he was facing a beast with fangs and a bloody mouth. .
He looked directly into Ji Ling's eyes, and asked without answering: "There are 22 immortals in the world, as long as they break through, there will be visions of heaven and earth, which cannot be concealed. Who are you?"
Ji Ling looked at the middle-aged man, and the smile on his lips suddenly turned cold: "This self-possessed appearance is really annoying."
She slowly tightened her fingers on the top of the middle-aged man's head.
"Your life is hanging by a thread, and you still have the mind to tell me what to say. It seems that you don't care about life and death. You are probably a dead man. You plan to leave a message before you die or pass it on in some way to make your master guard against me. Can raise The Zheng family doesn't have such a skill for a dead man at the peak of Dingdan."
After a pause, she suddenly leaned closer to the middle-aged man's face, staring closely at his eyes: "Are you from Li Wu?"
The middle-aged man frowned and said nothing.
But she read the answer she wanted from those eyes, and her five fingers turned into sharp thorns, which instantly penetrated into the top of the middle-aged man's head, and blood flowed out.
The middle-aged man raised his eyes abruptly, and the girl's expression of crying and laughing was reflected in his loose pupils.
He seemed to be stunned for a moment. His lips trembled and he uttered a very soft word. Immediately, blood ran down his cheeks, and he fell on his back, no longer breathing.
Ji Ling pulled out his finger, shook it casually, walked slowly to the head of Sangmenxing who fell on the ground, stretched out his embroidered shoe and kicked it.
At the same time, her face distorted for a while, from a look of madness and misery that seemed to be crying and laughing, to sudden panic and panic without warning, she cried out: "Why did Elder Luo die?"
Her complexion changed slightly, she found the only intact bronze mirror in the messy house, and immediately rushed over, looked into the mirror, and said angrily: "Mother, you killed Luo Shen? How could you kill him, he It's the elder of Nine Immortals Palace, Ding Dan with the highest cultivation beside me, if you kill him, who will protect me in the future, and how can I explain to the sect?"
Reflected in the bronze mirror, Ji Ling's face changed again, instead of anxious and angry expression, he only sighed softly: "Little Ling, I didn't kill the man, Li Wu sent the peak Dingdan to come, Luo Shen is too weak to resist, Then he died. You also know that my realm and strength are difficult to stabilize, sometimes high and sometimes low, and the hidden danger is huge. The situation was urgent just now, and my strength is insufficient, so there is really no way to save it."
"But fortunately, Luo Shen's death was delayed, so I had the opportunity to perform the immortal strike, otherwise I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to save you."
"Besides, even if this Sangmen star is not dead at this time, I will definitely kill him before you return to the Nine Immortals Palace. He knows too much, and he has noticed the abnormality between you and me."
Ji Ling's expression was in a trance, most of the anger was gone, and he turned to look at another corpse in the room: "Is this the peak Dingdan? Is he sent by my father?"
With a change in his face, Ji Ling said coldly again: "He is not your father."
Ji Ling didn't want to quarrel over this issue, so he didn't bring it up again, but said: "Mother, then Li Wu sent such a master to Jinling, and he still pays attention to the situation around Ningpingan, what exactly is he trying to do? He is an emperor, and he still cares about Are these trivial matters in Jinling City?"
"Or, he found out that the Son of Heaven Sword was missing, and he came to chase me down?"
Speaking of this, Ji Ling's expression immediately became tense: "Mother, why don't we look for some swordsmith masters in the Central Plains, and it's the same when we go back to the Western Regions. Let's take the Tianzi Sword and go back to the Nine Immortals Palace first. I always feel that It's too dangerous here!"
In the next moment, the nervousness on Ji Ling's face turned into coldness and sullenness: "A little danger will drive you back? You are so timid, what are you going to use to challenge Xie Cheng, who is now at the top of the list, for the third time?" cloud?"
"Besides, even if Li Wu finds out that the Son of Heaven Sword is lost, he will never track you down. I have promised the Palace Master that you will return to the sect with the fully repaired Son of Heaven Sword, and then I will beg you nine times." Immortal Palace’s No. [-] Town School’s unique skills are much better than the incomplete magic skills you have learned at this time, mother is for your own good.”
"Mother has already made an exception and secretly entrusted the fractal technique to come to help you. This matter must not be abandoned halfway!"
Ji Ling wasn't facing the bronze mirror directly, so he didn't see the teasing and murderous intent that didn't belong to him but was aimed at him that flashed in his eyes just now.
She had no choice but to keep her mouth shut.
The biological mother who brought her back to the Nine Immortals Palace when she killed her teacher and defected back then, when she had nowhere to go, besides being a little mysterious, unstable in strength, occasionally insane and difficult to control herself, most of the time she was thinking of her.
"Mother, what should we do next? Does Ning Pingan need to send someone to look after him?"
Ji Ling asked in a daze.
"No, he is useless. Kill him and go back to Zheng's house."
Thick sycamore branches and leaves covered most of the courtyard wall, tens of feet away behind the wall, behind a piece of eaves, Xie Zixuan withdrew Ding Dan's wiretapping technique, suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were icy cold.
He raised his eyes and looked at the slender figure flying out of the dilapidated small courtyard, his palms clenched into fists, firmly restraining his murderous intent and hatred.
"Wood, Yue, Xin! It really is you!"
Xie Zixuan slammed his fist on the wall, and the wall let out a mournful cry.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Chu Yunsheng and Xie Chengyun had already traveled all the way out of Jinling City and arrived at the place where Ningshou's martial arts competition was held on Dongsheng Mountain.
The two followed the direction that Ning Pingan had given, and while scouting along the way, they headed towards Longzhang Waterfall.
When they arrived at a woodland near Longzhang Waterfall, the two found traces of chasing and fighting all the way.
According to these traces, it can be seen that what Ning Pingan said is not wrong. The woman in red who is suspected to be Ji Ling is indeed crushing those men in black in terms of strength. The mastermind was also intentional, and it seemed to have another purpose.
If so, what Ji Ling said about staying in Zheng's house and looking for Zheng Yuchen just to chase that strange man seems a bit contradictory.
"With the power of heaven and earth remaining, this is definitely not a battle in the divine stage."
Xie Chengyun walked in the forest, frowned and said: "Isn't that woman Ji Ling?"
Chu Yunsheng shook his head and said, "It's not appropriate to conclude prematurely. I didn't know Ji Ling before, but the Ji Ling you mentioned has a different temperament from what I saw in Zheng's house. It may be a disguise, or it may be Another strange thing. If you look further ahead, the Longzhang Waterfall is coming.”
Xie Chengyun nodded in agreement, and the two restrained their movements, moved lightly, and were more careful, like two gentle breezes passing through the forest and leaves, drifting forward.
Soon, the two found a dry and mottled bloodstain, which was mostly blurred after too long, but they could still confirm that this was the place where Ning Shou was found.
A few steps ahead of this place is the majestic Longzhang Waterfall.
The impassioned water roars down from the green cliffs, like thousands of troops, hitting the rocks, and the sound it makes is like the roar of a giant lion, which is deafening.But the water splashed into the stream, but it calmed down in an instant, and slowly gathered and flowed, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, sunlight and tree shadows, like a piece of pure and beautiful emerald.
"Passing the cliff on the waterfall is the mine vein of the Zheng family. There are people guarding it, and they should not be approached normally." Xie Chengyun said.
Chu Yunsheng immediately realized the loophole, frowned and said: "Since there are people guarding this place, it is impossible for the Zheng family guards to be unaware of the fight happening here."
The two looked at each other tacitly, one after the other, they climbed up the cliff, their lightness kung fu was perfected, and they stepped on the water upstream.
After half a cup of tea, the two of them were wet and climbed up the cliff.
There is a steep slope extending from the front of the cliff. There are many stone forests on the slope, and there is a basin below the slope. The edge of the basin is facing a canyon.
Looking across the stone forest, above the basin and the canyon, there are figures swaying all over the place. There are groups of people in blue clothes patrolling. Not surprisingly, they should be the guards of the Zheng family.
Behind these guards, there is a small stockade, and the guards standing on the wooden tower are watching from afar.
If it wasn't for Chu Yunsheng and Xie Chengyun's lightness kungfu and being cautious, they would have concealed their bodies the first time they climbed the cliff, and they might be discovered.
Chu Yunsheng scanned the guards intently, and immediately noticed something strange.
"All of them are the guards of Hanshenqi."
He leaned against a boulder and entered the secret passage through sound transmission.
Xie Chengyun looked at the stockade, his expression changed slightly, and he replied: "Even the Xie family is not rich enough to send so many Hanshenqi guards to guard a small mine. It seems that this place is not as simple as just a mine. "
"Longzhang Waterfall, Longzhang Waterfall... Sure enough, there is no wrong name."
The tone seems to be different.
Chu Yunsheng looked at Xie Chengyun's expression, thought of Zheng's family, thought of Ji Ling, thought of that Emperor Li Wu, and vaguely guessed something.
While the two were scouting and watching, a movement suddenly came from the village.
On the rock wall of the canyon near the basin, there seemed to be steps dug. At this time, a group of young and strong laborers were climbing up panting, carrying huge baskets full of ore.
Seeing them coming, the closed gate of the stockade slowly opened, and ores piled up like hills appeared inside the gate.
There are tens of hundreds of old and weak women and children sitting around these hills, their bodies covered in black, covered in dust and smoke, and they are holding a strange compass in their hands, picking ore.
The young laborers came in, unloaded all the ore in the baskets, and returned to the canyon.
After a while, more than a dozen children stood up, carried small baskets, put some picked ores into it, and walked towards a low mountain behind the stockade. There seemed to be a cave there.
When the children came back from the cave, the gate of the village creaked again and closed again.
Chu Yunsheng withdrew his gaze, recalling the scene of the compass pointer shaking with Hanshenqi's eyesight, and said: "The compass should be searching for a certain kind of breath contained in the ore, and those who have that kind of breath was picked out and sent into the low mountain."
He looked at Xie Chengyun.
The eyes of the two met, and Chu Yunsheng asked, "Is the dragon in Longzhang Waterfall a dragon from the dragon veins of the Central Plains?"
The dignified look on Xie Chengyun's face dissipated a little, he looked at Chu Yunsheng, raised his eyebrows slightly, his pupils were dark, and laughed softly: "Chuchu, Li Wu knows that the emperor's sword that Li Youzhen hid in the forbidden area of the palace is thrown away. But he didn’t know that it was Ji Ling who stole the Tianzi Sword, and he didn’t know that the reason why Ji Ling was able to take away the Tianzi Sword without disturbing the palace formation was because of my Xie family’s tricks.”
Chu Yunsheng was startled, sighed in his heart, and said, "When we were in Beijing, the Xie family didn't know that Ji Ling might have something to do with Mu Yuexin, so why did they help her?"
Xie Chengyun smiled and said: "At the beginning, Li Youzhen secretly slaughtered countless sword-making families, found the Son of Heaven Sword, and sealed it in a forbidden area on the surface, strictly prohibiting Li Wu from getting close to coveting, but in fact, she just wanted to use this to stimulate Arouse Li Wu's indignant heart, and temper Li Wu. If Li Wu can really break through the forbidden area, mend and tame the Tianzi Sword, it is equivalent to passing Li Youzhen's test, and Li Youzhen will help him take the last step, melt into the Tianzi Sword, and become Li Wu. The second Youxian in the family."
"If there is such a day, what will the Xie family use to revenge? Li Youzhen, who is at the top of the ascension list and number one in the world, is already hopeless."
Chu Yunsheng raised his hand, held Xie Chengyun's palm with slightly protruding veins, and said in a low voice: "Longzhang Waterfall, if it is the dragon veins of the Central Plains, does it mean that Li Wu no longer looks for the lost Tianzi Sword, but intends to dry up the dragon veins and start a new life?" Forge a handle?"
"No accident, that's it."
Xie Chengyun slowly loosened his fingers, and quietly pressed his palm to Chu Yunsheng's: "The dragon's veins are exhausted, and the world is in chaos. Whether it is for family hatred or for innocent people, Li Wu cannot be allowed to forge swords. If you count , this move is really forced by the Xie family, I can't just sit idly by, I have to send a letter to Shangjing quickly."
"The aristocratic family restricts the royal family, and the Zheng family will never betray the aristocratic family easily. There may be something wrong with Zheng Yuchen."
Chu Yun stated Bai Xie Chengyun's meaning, and said lightly: "After I go back, I will investigate. Besides, I have to meet another person to thank my family."
Xie Chengyun raised his eyes and said clearly: "Are you going to see Ji Ling?"
Chu Yunsheng nodded.
Xie Chengyun was silent for a moment, then suddenly said: "I didn't mention a word at noon, but now I suddenly tell you so many secrets, and lead you into the position of Xie's family...Chuchu, you are not afraid that I knew that Longzhang Waterfall is different, yes Deliberately bringing you here, so that you can see this scene, fall into a trap, unable to get out, and can only be used by me?"
Chu Yunsheng half-knelt behind the boulder, amused in his heart, but slowly raised his arms, and gently hugged Xie Chengyun, who was leaning against the stone wall and was covered in damp.
There are still tiny drops of water on the cheeks.
Chu Yunsheng's true energy circulated, and the water marks on the two people's bodies were evaporated. A thin white mist rose up and drifted away with the wind blowing from the edge of the cliff.
In the hazy fog, Chu Yun said: "If you want, you can use me. But Mr. Xie, there is a price
