[Xianjian + Ancient Sword Colleague] Being a master is also a kind of practice

After bidding farewell to Immortal Hansu, Shen Bailing traveled day and night, galloping towards the southern border Yujian.Now that he has returned to his old body, his physical strength is naturally not what it used to be, and the fairy sword under his feet has been replaced by the spring water that connects his mind and soul.In the afternoon of this day, he passed over a hill, looked at the rolling red leaves below, and knew that Wumeng Linggu was not far away, so he simply slowly fell to the ground.

Walking across the suspension bridge outside the valley familiarly, Shen Bailing stopped in front of a stone tablet.It wasn't that he didn't want to enter the valley, but an invisible force blocked him at the entrance of the valley. Although the road to enter the valley was in front of him, it was difficult to take a step forward.Shen Bailing knew very well that what should stop him should be the enchantment outside the Wumeng Linggu. He is no longer Baili Wushang now, and the blood that was originally used as the proof of entering the valley has also changed accordingly, and he wants to come freely as before. Going to nature is no longer possible.

Shen Bailing thought about it for a while, and simply raised his voice and shouted: "Shen Bailing is a good friend of Baili Wushang, please come out and see Dawu Han from the Lingwu clan." He knew that Dawu Han Li was seriously ill and said It may be difficult to get up, but this move is only to attract the Lingwu tribe, and naming Baili Wushang and Han Li's names is just to gain trust.

Sure enough, with this shout, echoes echoed inside and outside the valley, and the people in the village were alarmed not long after.He only heard the sound of footsteps getting closer, and soon several young men and women appeared in front of Shen Bailing, and he was very familiar with a pair of young men and women, Han Xiuning and Baili Wuyou.

"Who are you, why are you yelling here?" Baili Wuyou asked, looked him up and down, then glanced at Han Xiuning, and couldn't help frowning.

Shen Bailing smiled faintly: "Shen Bailing is in the sinking, and I have something to come to see Da Wuzhu Han Li."

Hearing his father's name, Han Xiuning's expression changed, but he quickly put on a straight face and said, "My father is busy with his cultivation and has no time to see outsiders."

Shen Bailing was startled at first, then suddenly caught a glimpse of Han Xiuning's eyeballs rolling, and looked at Baili Wuyou.This little action fell into Shen Bailing's eyes, and it only made him secretly amused, Han Xiuning, this little girl was actually playing tricks in front of him, if he hadn't been with these two people for more than ten years, he might be deceived.However, he glanced at the expressions of the rest of the tribe who hadn't changed after hearing her words, and he thought about it again. Han Xiuning's lying might not only deceive him, but also deceive the Lingwu tribe. I understand, I'm afraid that this was taught by Dawu Han Li to his two disciples. In order to prevent people from outside the valley from knowing that the head of the Lingwu clan was seriously injured, he took advantage of the situation and simply claimed that he was obsessed with cultivation and even deceived his clansmen. .

But Shen Bailing himself didn't come to ask to see Dawuzhu Han Li, he immediately changed his tone and said, "Dawuzhu Han can't come out, so please ask Baili Wuzhu to see him. After all, this is Baili Wushang's family affair."

"Brother Wushang?" Hearing him mention Baili Wushang, Han Xiuning immediately showed concern, "He... what happened to him?"

Shen Bailing took a deep look at her, hesitated to speak.Seeing his ominous expression, Han Xiuning became more and more anxious, stomped his feet and shouted, "What's wrong with Brother Wushang, tell me!"

At this moment, a female voice sounded in the valley: "Xiu Ning girl, I seem to have heard someone calling our Wushang's name just now, what's going on?"

Shen Bailing followed the crowd to look towards the source of the sound, and saw Baili Wu Zhu and his beloved wife Wa Jing rushing towards this side, and it was Wa Jing who spoke just now.There were a few elderly people behind them, and Shen Bailing recognized them as the highly respected Wu Zhu in the clan. These people had obviously heard Shen Bailing's message before, but their footsteps were not as vigorous as the young people's, so they arrived late.Seeing several elders approaching, Han Xiuning and Baili Wuyou rushed to greet them together, and Baili Wuyou couldn't wait to repeat what Shen Bailing said just now to his parents.

Baili Wuzhu immediately said to Shen Bailing in a deep voice: "I am Baililan, and Wushang is my son. What do you want to see me for?"

Shen Bailing showed sadness at the right time, took out a small black porcelain altar from the rucksack he was carrying, and said to the Baili couple and others what he had already thought about during the journey: "Young Hero Baili encountered an accident and died He passed away half a month ago, before he died, he entrusted me to send his body back to his homeland, this is his ashes, please bury him properly." He said and handed over the porcelain altar.

Hearing the news of his beloved son's death suddenly, even though Bai Lilan was usually indifferent to emotions, he couldn't help being shocked.Wa Jing's face was even paler, and her whole body was on the verge of falling, as if she was about to fall to the ground in the next moment, Baili Wuyou hurriedly took a step forward and put her arms around her shoulders, comforting her in a low voice: "Mother, you still have Wuyou... ..." Halfway through the words, he also choked up.

"You liar!" A sharp voice suddenly shouted, startling everyone.Shen Bailing followed the sound and saw Han Xiuning's sleeves trembling, and her whole body was trembling like chaff. The girl's pretty face had already lost all color, and the tears in her eyes were gathering more and more, but she shook her head desperately Said, "You're a liar, brother Wushang won't die, you are a liar!" Before she finished speaking, tears had already fallen, and she seemed to feel that she was too rude, so she pushed away the clansmen who came up to comfort her, and covered her face Then he ran towards the valley, and after a while he disappeared.

Seeing her mourning so much, Shen Bailing sighed slightly in his heart, he still made her heartbroken after all.But the matter has come to this point, it is useless to tell about the fact that he has occupied Baili Wushang's identity for 20 years, not to mention that the matter of crossing the soul is too tragic, if you tell the truth, it will be even more difficult for Baili and his wife to accept.He thought about it and could only say: "Young Hero Baili has passed away, so I ask everyone to express my condolences."

Baili Wuzhu suppressed his sadness, and then said to him: "Thank you for bringing Wushang back, even if we people from southern Xinjiang die, we must be buried in the land given to us by Empress Nuwa." I saluted deeply.Wa Jing and Baili Wuyou also saluted him.

Shen Bailing couldn't return the courtesy, and said again: "It's better to let Baili Shaoxia go to the ground as soon as possible."

Baili Wuzhu nodded slightly, stopped talking, and didn't look at the people around him, just hugged the porcelain altar in his arms, turned and walked towards the valley.In just a short moment, his back actually looked much older.

Baili Wuyou glanced in the direction Han Xiuning was leaving, then at the weeping mother in her arms, hesitated for a while, then gave some instructions to the rest of the clan, and helped Wa Jing to leave.

Because Shen Bailing couldn't enter the valley, he had to rest temporarily in a temporary hut outside the valley under the arrangement of several other witches. At first, some people were dubious about him, but Shen Bailing only said that he and Baili Wushang met in the Central Plains, A few things about Wumeng Linggu were briefly mentioned, and those people saw that what he said was true, and it was true that Baili Wushang went to the Central Plains, so they gradually let go of their suspicions, and Baili Wushang respected his mother again. The order sent food and drink, and the group of people didn't disperse until evening.

In the dead of night, Shen Bailing was lying on the wooden bed with his eyes closed, thinking about Baili Wushang's burial tomorrow, tracing Lei Yan's whereabouts, and recalling the grief of Baili and his wife for losing their beloved son during the day, his mood became more and more confused.At this moment, there was only a soft rustling sound coming from outside the hut, as if someone was approaching secretly, the footsteps were very light, but Shen Bailing's skill was naturally heard clearly.He heard footsteps gradually approaching the door, stopped for a while, and finally knocked a few times on the door.

Shen Bailing stood up and said, "Please come in."

The door was originally made of wooden branches tied side by side, without a bolt, and it was pushed open with a creak.A black figure came in lightly, closed the door carefully before turning around, there was no light in the room, the faint moonlight penetrated through the gaps in the thatched roof, and sprinkled on the man's pretty face, making his skin even more beautiful snow white.

Shen Bailing was slightly surprised, got up and said: "Hugh..." Just as he was about to call out "Xiu Ning", he suddenly remembered that he was no longer his original identity, so he quickly changed his words, "So it's Miss Han, what's the matter with coming here at night?" thing?"

Han Xiuning stood in the room, her face was still sad, but her expression was no longer as groggy as she was in the daytime, and she said after a while: "I heard from Wuyou that you are a friend of brother Wushang's in the Central Plains. I have something to ask you."

Shen Bailing vaguely guessed what she was asking, and immediately nodded and said, "Miss, please."

A stern look flashed in Han Xiuning's eyes, and he asked, "I just want to ask you, why did brother Wushang die suddenly after leaving Wumeng Linggu for half a month? He is young and his skill is the best among us. Could it be that he was sick, was he killed by someone, and who killed him?" She said one sentence after another, and her voice, which had been deliberately lowered, became higher and higher.

Shen Bailing pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "This matter can only be told to Han Li Dawuzhu, but Miss Han is Dawuzhu's own daughter and the next Dawuzhu, so it's okay to tell you, just remember not to spread it. Kill The person who killed Baili Shaoxia is named Li Chuhuang!"

"Li Chuhuang..." Han Xiuning repeated the name several times, raised his head and asked, "Who is this person, and why did he kill brother Wushang?"

Shen Bailing sighed, and asked: "Miss Han, do you know why Baili Shaoxia wants to go to the Central Plains?"

"Why don't I know! He's going—" Han Xiuning was about to blurt out, but remembering Han Li's instructions, he swallowed the words that rushed to his lips, and asked, "Then you know why he's going?" Central Plains?"

Shen Bailing smiled lightly: "I don't know what secrets your Spirit Witch Clan has, but Baili Shaoxia once told me that he came to the Central Plains to make friends with righteous people and fight against evil spirits. It's just because the Spirit Witch Clan was secretly coveted by a group of crooked demons and evil ways. , although relying on the enchantment of the spirit witch clan can block the evil spirits for a while, it can't put an end to the tragedy. Baili Shaoxia only hopes to unite a group of Central Plains masters to subdue these people to prevent future troubles, but who knows..."

"Who knew he was killed by Li Chuhuang!" Han Xiuning rushed to continue without waiting for him to finish speaking, the look of grief and indignation in her eyes became more intense, she said to herself, "This Li Chuhuang is as good as nothing!" What grudge does Brother Shang have, ah, I know, he is the leader of that group of evil spirits, seeing that my brother Wushang wanted to ruin his good deeds, he did it first! Where is this Li Chuhuang, you tell me, I want to Go and kill him to avenge Brother Wushang!" After she finished speaking, she became agitated again, grabbed Shen Bailing's sleeve and shouted.

Shen Bailing was very distressed, not to mention that he still didn't know whether Li Chuhuang had become Ouyang Shaogong now, but with Han Xiuning's current cultivation base alone, if he really found Li Chuhuang, he would have to lose his life. But it will take a lot of effort to stop this girl.He was helpless when he suddenly heard an old voice outside the door coughing and shouting: "Xiu Ning, don't mess around!"
