The cave was getting damper and wetter, the torch was extinguished, and water droplets were dripping overhead. When he reached the corner, he suddenly heard the sound of "servant", Xu Xuan was startled, and before he had time to dodge, a large group of bats had already collided head-on, several of them were swept up in flames, screaming and slamming around.

He wields torches to banish bats as he walks sideways against the wall. Just after walking a few steps, he stumbled under his feet, stumbled and fell to the ground, looked up, and screamed "Ah", and hurriedly turned over to avoid it.

A few feet away, there sat a white skeleton, whose clothes were so tattered that only wisps remained, and a delicate and turquoise jade Ruyi hung obliquely on the neck bone; In his right hand, he held an ancient bronze sword, green and rusty, shining with a dazzling blue light in the light of the fire.

Xu Xuan looked in the direction of the skull's eye sockets, and more than a dozen lines of beautiful characters were engraved on the stone wall on the right side, and he read in a low voice:

Beautifully, who remembers the grand event of the Southern Dynasties? The mountain surrounds the old country around the Qingjiang River, the bun is on the opposite side, the angry waves are lonely and lonely to hit the lonely city, and the wind is far away in the sky.

The cliff tree is still leaning backwards; Mo Chou boat was once tied. The empty old ruins are lush and green, and the fog is half a base. In the middle of the night, the moon came over the female wall, and she looked sadly at the Huaishui.

Where is the wine flag and drumming in the market? I want to vaguely、Wang Xie neighborhood。 The swallow does not know where the world is, and it is often a stranger in the alley, relatively like the rise and fall, in the sun.

He has always liked the sound of dogs and horses, and he is good at music and rhythm, and after reading two sentences, he remembered that this poem was "West River" made by Zhou Bangyan of the Huizong Dynasty, and couldn't help humming softly. I secretly felt strange in my heart, I don't know who this skeleton is? Looking at her tattered red dress and blue skirt, it seems that she is a fireworks woman, why would she hold an ancient sword and die in this Emei cave? When he was dying, why did he engrave this poem on the wall?

Xu Xuan looked at the skeleton and was even more surprised. The jade Ruyi hanging on the skeleton is round and clear, bright green like spring water, not to mention the dust woman, even if it is a huge rich dignitary, it may not be available. couldn't help but be curious, took off the wishful and played with it, only to see more than a dozen small characters engraved at the bottom:

"Remembering last year, facing the east wind, I promised to live up to the wish of the warbler."

This sentence is quite unfamiliar, and I can't remember anyone who made it for a while.

He thought to himself: "God made me make a mistake, and when I encounter this skeleton, I may have a deep meaning." At that moment, he put away the jade Ruyi, bowed his hand to the skeleton, and said, "Offended!" He promised to announce that if he found out about the girl's life experience, he would definitely use this jade Ruyi as a token and let your family come here to bury the bones. "Walk around the skeleton and continue walking upwards.

After walking two more incense sticks, the flame of the torch gradually became smaller, and the Yongdong became narrower and narrower, but there was no exit. Xu Xuanzheng felt anxious, and suddenly saw patches of moss on the ground, and puddles of water meanders; If you listen closely, there seems to be the sound of gurgling water in the distance.

He rejoiced that since there was water flowing into this place, there would be no doubt that there would be an outlet. Follow the sound of the water at the moment and walk briskly.

walked up more than 200 steps, and suddenly heard a voice from above: "Ge Laozi, God is not beautiful, it rained for a day and a night, and the smell of the fragrance of the mother and son was washed away, and I don't know where the little girl with the rabbit cub hid it, and it was really his grandmother's effort to find it...... Mount Emei is so big, is it possible for us to dig three feet into the ground and turn it over? ”

Xu Xuanyi: "Could it be that he is talking about us?" Hurriedly blew out the torch and listened intently.

Another deep voice said: "That girl was injured by the demon queen's 'Nine Turns of Cold Ice Arrow', and she was hit by the 'Feiying Sword Shadow' of the master master, and she must not be able to run far." There are our eyeliner inside and outside the mountains, how long can she hide it? I'm not afraid that she will escape, just don't let the demon gate and the other white-eyed wolves take the lead. ”

Xu Xuan was taken aback, he had heard Cheng Zhongfu say that the "Feiying Sword Shadow" was the killing sword of Liao Ruowu, the "Feiying Sanren" of Qingcheng Mountain. Although Liao Ruowu and Cheng Zhongfu's master Xu Guanchan are called "Qingcheng Nine Sword Immortals", their swordsmanship is even higher than the latter, ranking fourth among the nine sword schools in Qingcheng.

These two people are called "Master of the Sect", and they must be disciples of Qingcheng's "Flying Sword Gate".

But why didn't the Qingcheng factions rescue their own group, but instead sniped at the woman in white and put her to death? Could it really be as Ge Changgeng hinted that the Taoist sects did not care about the friendship of their fellow sects and the happiness of the common people, just for the sake of the conflict of interests, they did not hesitate to break their heads and injure the innocent, but also to grab the "living treasure" of the Demon Emperor?

The first voice smiled and said, "Second Senior Brother is right. The most hateful thing this time is the bald donkey of Mount Emei, his grandmother's, the demons of Java have all come, these grandsons are good, not only do they kill the demons, but also close the mountain gate and cry, pretending to be deaf and dumb, making it clear that we and the demons will fight for both sides. ”

The "Second Senior Brother" sneered: "Sixth Senior Brother, you are very wrong, what we should be most careful about is not the Emei bald donkey, nor the demon sect, but the turtle son of the Dragon and Tiger Sect." The demon thief of the demon gate wants to save Lin Lingsu, which is understandable; If the Emei bald donkey doesn't cultivate my Dao Sect secret method, it won't be of much use if he gets the Demon Emperor. However, this group of turtle sons of Longhu Mountain were bent on swallowing it alone, for fear that we would take the lead, and actually colluded with the Emei thief, causing us to be one step late. Ge Laozi, otherwise the building near the water will get the moon first, not to mention those two stinky girls, even if it is Ge Laodao, hasn't it already arrived in our hands? ”

The "sixth junior brother" spat hatefully and said: "This group of turtle sons who killed a thousand knives know how to fight in a fucking nest!" However, Second Senior Brother, how can the master be sure that Lin Lingsu's turtle son is on the white-clothed girls? What if she was carried away by a little girl in green clothes? Let's wait here for the ladies in white, won't it become a bamboo blue water? ”

"Second Senior Brother" said: "Since Old Man Ge has possessed that stinky boy, the 'Qiankun Yuan Qi Pot' must also be carried by him." Besides, the girls in white are more powerful than the girls in green, as the saying goes, 'beauties are fat, bodyguards are strong', absolutely can't be wrong. ”

Xu Xuan's heart jumped, and he was surprised and delighted: "Could it be that Miss Xiaoqing and Miss Li also escaped?" "Keep listening. After a while, I finally understood the ins and outs of this matter.

It turns out that although the nine sword factions of Qingcheng Mountain and Longhu Mountain, Maoshan Mountain, and Gesoap Mountain are known as the four sects of the world's Daomen, they have been fighting openly and secretly with each other.

In the past few decades, the two sects of Maoshan and Gesoap have gradually declined, and the Daomen have gradually formed a situation in which the Heavenly Master Dao of Longhu Mountain and the nine major factions of Qingcheng compete for hegemony.

The Dragon and Tiger Sect was originally evolved from the five buckets of rice in Zhangling of the Eastern Han Dynasty. In that year, it swept the world from Heming Mountain in Sichuan, although it has been thousands of years apart, it still has residual power in Bashu and other places.

In order to suppress the Qingcheng faction, Zhang Shouzhen, the Dragon and Tiger Heavenly Master, repaired with the Seventy-two Temples of Emei, and sent his eldest disciple Zhang Yuanting to establish a Taoist temple in Chengdu, collect disciples, and directly insert his power into Shu.

The Mingkong Master of Mount Emei is very old, and after joining forces with Ge Changgeng to suppress the Demon Emperor that night, Zhenyuan suffered a great loss and soon passed away.

One of the seventy-two temples of Emei was angry with Ge Changgeng, and the other coveted the secret methods of various factions stolen by Lin Lingsu, but he did not dare to disobey Mingkong's last wish, and openly confronted Ge Changgeng and snatched the Qiankun Yuan Qi pot. So Mingxin trapped Ge Changgeng on the one hand, gambling on chess, and deliberately leaked the news on the other hand, attracting the various factions of Dao and Demon to the fire.

Zhang Yuanting got the tip report from the Emei faction early, and led the Dragon and Tiger Sect to arrive at the first time. The various factions in Qingcheng, which are not far from Emei, only heard the news a day late. By the time Qingcheng, Maoshan, and Gesoap factions arrived, the Dragon and Tiger Sect had already seized the opportunity and took advantage of the favorable terrain.

Last night, when the demons of the Demon Gate besieged Ge Changgeng, the Dragon and Tiger Sect had already set up ambushes around the main peak, and only waited for the people in the Demon Gate to rob the Demon Emperor, and then there was a praying mantis to catch cicadas.

Since the Qingcheng and Maoshan factions lost the opportunity, they simply disrupted the overall situation, fished in troubled waters, and took advantage of the time when the Dragon and Tiger Sect and the Demon Sect were competing to hunt down Ge Changgeng's body, and suddenly slashed in and fought in a mess.

At the same time, Ge Changgeng and others broke through the siege and were attacked by the Demon Queen, and the Yuan Shen was severely injured and left the body. In order to cover the escape of Xu Xuan and others, Ge Changgeng did not hesitate to fight the demon queen with the death of the Yuan Shen, and finally fought hard and severely injured the demon queen.

After the various factions of the Daomen and the demons of the Demon Gate discovered the plan, they immediately turned back to pursue Ge Changgeng and his party.

The woman in white led Xu Xuan to break through to the east, while Xiaoqing led Li Qiuqing to flee to the west. After several hard battles, the woman in white was seriously injured, and finally protected Xu Xuan, escaped the pursuit of the Demon Gate and the Dao Gate, and fled into the secret cave.

The Demon Gate and the Dao Gate are looking for people's hearts, so they stop fighting for the time being, and divide their own boundaries to search carefully. And the cave where the woman in white and Xu Xuan were hiding was precisely on the top of the mountain where various factions in Qingcheng were robbed.

Xu Xuan thought secretly: "It turns out that she was injured to protect me." If she escapes alone, I'm afraid that she will already be out of Emei at this moment! "Amazement, gratitude, shame, joy, pity...... All of them poured into their hearts, standing against the wall in a daze, with mixed feelings.

The voices of the two people above grew quieter and quieter, and their footsteps grew farther and farther away, and finally disappeared into obscurity.

Xu Xuan settled down, carried the herbs on his back, and carefully walked up the wall, and after a while, he finally arrived at the entrance of the cave. It turns out that the other end of this cave is hidden between the stone walls of the mountain spring, and the surrounding rocks are stacked and the bushes are overgrown, which is extremely secret.

He exited the cave, looked around, and quickly found his bearings. The wind and rain have gradually subsided, and through the swirling clouds and mist, you can clearly see the hill where the woman in white is hiding. At this time, knowing that the various factions of the sect were lurking around, they regarded them as enemies, and they no longer dared to be careless, and they searched the surroundings while running cautiously.

He has a strong sense of direction, strong true energy, clear night vision, and has mastered the key to lifting his qi and rushing, and the return journey is much faster than when he came. In just a quarter of an hour, he had returned to the cave where the White Lady was hiding. The joy of pride in my heart is difficult to describe.

There are still more than ten zhang away from the cave, and you can see the faint fire reflected in the stone wall at the entrance of the cave, flickering bright and dark.

Xu Xuan was very clever, and his heart was terrified: before he got out of the cave, he had already extinguished the fire, how could there be fire in the cave? So he held his breath and tiptoed around to the left of the hole.

The boulder stands diagonally, overlapping the opening, revealing a slender gap. Xu Xuan stepped forward and looked inside, his heart sank, and he almost screamed, and his anger rushed to the top of his head.
