Night.

Xiao Luo sat on the chair in his bedroom, pulled out the pendant of the Kunwu knife hanging on his chest from his collar, and pinched it to his fingertips to look at it.

Instead of looking at the pendant of Kunwu Dao, it is better that he is just in a daze.

Jiujing, Kunwu knife, Yuanzhou Yunzong.

Cheongju Rong family, Rong Jin.

Miaozhou Gu family, Gu Xi.

In the phantom image of the shards of the Kunwu knife several times, the young woman, they finally knew her name.

Gu Xi.

Thinking of Miaozhou Jiujing, thinking of the feather "Gu" word Xuantie card, especially ...... When Xiao Luo first saw that Xuantie card, he had a seemingly familiar and complicated feeling, and when he had both the Kunwu knife and the Xuantie card in his hand in Miaozhou Jiujing, his heart was so heavy and depressed...

The "key" that can enter the secret land of Miaozhou Jiujing, the Xuantie card should really be, it is related to Gu Xi.

Rong Jin and Gu Xi, this pair of men and women are the characters of the Yunzong who had long disappeared on the Kyushu continent many years ago, and they are the heroes who overthrew the mountain that pressed on people's heads in those legends that people still remember in Yuanzhou. At that time, the Yun Sect oppressed not only ordinary people, but also many family power sects, and Xiao Luo's knowledge of the extermination of the Rong family in Qingzhou after recovering another piece of Kunwu knife fragment in Qingzhou was just a microcosm of the sins of the Yun Sect at the beginning.

Rong Jin is a member of the Rong family in Qingzhou, and he bears the blood feud of the Rong family, and Gu Xi ...... It's about the same, so that two people who are also burdened with a deep hatred of the sea of blood, in the same burden of forbearance and humiliation, they support each other, snuggle up to each other for warmth, and climb out of the sea of blood little by little, drenched in blood, and finally get revenge at the same time, for the people of Kyushu under the gloomy dome, a little crack that can reveal the light. The hardships and pains are not something that others can understand.

But such two people, such two people who are still circulating deeds in the ordinary population after an unknown number of generations even after thousands of years, but there is no record of the classics, whether it is a loose cultivator or a child of the family, they have never heard their names, and even Yunzong has never recorded any records.

It was as if they had been erased from Kyushu along with the history of the Yun Sect.

The stone that Tian Buku brought from Zhongzhou, the tall stone altar, and the figures of several different forces under the stone platform......

When was that? before or after the fall of the Cloud Sect? Who were under the stone platform? Where were they gathered...... For what?

Also welcome... Gu Xi.

Gu Xi, who couldn't see his face clearly, stood under the high platform, different from the appearance he had seen in the phantom or dream, not defensive or fearful, not distressed or gentle, not resentful or happy to talk and laugh.

She stood there quietly, but it seemed as if she had lost everything, despair in the calm.

At that time, in the council chamber, I saw this, especially the moment when the top of the high stone platform burst out with a blinding golden red light......

Xiao Luo didn't know either, whether the pendant hanging on his chest made his heart hurt, or was it ...... It was already aching.

Xiao Luo took a deep breath, hung the pendant of the Kunwu knife back around his neck, retracted it into the collar and put it away, couldn't help but reach out and rub his face, trying to come back to his senses, take back the thoughts that had been placed on Rong Jin and Gu Xi before, and carefully consider other clues.

Like what......

At this moment, there was a very light footstep outside the door.

Except for the four generations of disciples who have just started in the Ming Province Valley, the other members are all monks who have at least achieved some success in cultivation, and it is actually very easy not to make a sound when walking. In addition, Xiao Luo is next to Xue Yun here, and it is the residence of the two valley lords in the valley of Ming Province, so no one will usually come to disturb him.

Therefore, at this time, the footsteps outside the door can be regarded as a shallow temptation, to see if the people in the room have slept and rested, whether they have sunk into cultivation, and it is inconvenient to disturb. The sound of footsteps is softer than the sound of knocking on the door, and it will not be as easy to disturb the people who are cultivating pranayama as rashly probing into spiritual power, so getting up is a very safe way.

At this time, I will come to him, and I will only welcome...

Xiao Luo got up from the chair and walked to the door, opened the door, and sure enough, he saw Xue Yun standing outside the door a little hesitant.

Outside, there were no clouds on it, and the bright silver moonlight sprinkled down, reflecting his courtyard much brighter. And Xue Yun in front of him was bathed in the moonlight, and he had such a sense of etherealism, which was dimly unreal.

Xiao Luo was stunned for a moment, quickly came back to his senses, and stretched out his hand in Xue Yuan's slightly worried gaze......

Rubbed her head.

The action is as gentle and familiar as ever.

Xue Yuan's heart that he had been carrying was soothed a little, but he was still shrouded in worry.

"Xiao Luo......"

Xiao Luo once again consciously rubbed Xue Yuan's hair, but at this time, Xue Yuan didn't seem to care about this for a while. So Xiao Luo, who was not pinched, smiled at Xue Yuan: "What's wrong?"

"I ......"

"It's better to ...... Let's go for a walk. Xiao Luo proposed softly, his voice slow and soft: "The moonlight is just right tonight, the night view of Ming Province Valley under the moonlight, the two of us are valley masters, but we haven't seen it well." It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, just tonight, Lord Xue Gu...... Walk with me?"

Xue Yu let out a long breath, nodded in response, and then ...... He took his arm.

The two walked out of Xiao Luo's residence side by side, and slowly wandered around the Ming Province Valley step by step, far away from other Rao residences and retreats. Although Xue Yuan's heart was full of worries, he and Xiao Luo quietly watched the two of them together, one grass, one tree, one brick and one tile, and the Ming Province Valley built by himself, and there was also some unclear pride and emotion in his heart.

Xiao Luo turned his face slightly, looked at Xue Yuan's slightly loosened brows, and a smile appeared on his face: "Ming Shenggu is already doing very well, and the development is really fast, I want to come...... The day when the top forces in Kyushu will not be too far away. ”

Xue Yun chuckled lightly and shook his head: "How can it be so easy......? A few days ago, we had a mortal enmity with Xuanqingmen, and now we ...... I don't know what the situation is in Qingzhou, and what will happen to Xuanqingmen in Kyushu. ”

Not to mention......

Although there was no exit, both of them knew very well in their hearts that the Xuanqing Gate was likely to lean towards the Feng family.

“...... The core of Xuanqing Gate, after a border interception outside Gancheng, has been destroyed by most of it, if it is ......"

“...... Hope. ”

The Yuanying monks of the Xuanqing Gate are now only the head and the great elder who did not participate in the interception of the Ming Province Valley on the border, and there are not a few Jindan monks left, and they are indeed precarious among the big forces in Kyushu.

However, Xuanqingmen also has a peak cultivator who can now reach the peak of the human race cultivator in the Kyushu Continent, the Taishang Elder in the distraction period, and his existence and deterrence are the main reasons why Xuanqingmen can stand.

After finishing the matter of Xuanqingmen, the two were silent for a while.

Xue Yu still couldn't hold back, and opened her mouth to explain the reason why she couldn't rest in peace tonight and came to Xiao Luo:

"Today in the council chamber, you ...... The origin of that stone is the altar of Zhongzhou. ”

Xiao Luo guessed what Xue Yuan wanted next, but he didn't interrupt, just nodded and said "um" softly.

Xue Yun took a deep breath, and the strength of the hand holding Xiao Luo's arm was a little stronger: "Since it is the altar, then ...... What is that for?"

“...... I don't know, about ...... It has something to do with Kujing. Xiao Luo smiled softly, and his tone seemed very relaxed and natural: "Get up, your previous guess may have been hit again, and the Kunwu knife may really have something to do with Jiujing." ”

Xue Yuan stopped moving forward, and Xiao Luo beside her also survived.

The two walked to the vicinity of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion in the Ming Province Valley, the vegetation was flourishing, not a space gap, at this time the two were standing under a banyan tree surrounded by three or four people, the lush canopy blocked most of the moonlight, and the tree was much darker than the open space.

Xue Yun turned to face Xiao Luo, let go of his arm, but quickly grabbed his palm tightly:

Rong Jin ...... You Rong Jin was the previous master of the Kunwu Sword, and the light we saw in the phantom of the council hall today was indeed exactly the same as the Kunwu Sword......

Xiao Luo calmly looked at Xue Yuan, whose voice was a little tight, and slowly held back her somewhat cold and stiff fingers, with a gentle and somewhat comforting smile on her face.

Xue Yun took a deep breath and tightened the hand holding Xiao Luo's palm: "Altar, Kunwu knife, Rong Jin." Is Rong Jin officiating or something, and he also used the Kunwu knife...... After that...... And after that?"

Xiao Luo shook his head at her: "I don't know either." ”

Xue Yun moved his lips, but he didn't say those words.

Under the stone altar, Xiao Luo is the woman of "Gu Xi", although she can't see her face clearly, but even if they are separated by time and distance, just by phantoms, they can feel the sad and desperate aura on her body.

From those phantoms, I know that Rong Jin on the high platform, the last member of the Rong family in Qingzhou, whom Xiao Luo had fought with her once, was the last lord of Kunwu Dao......

Xue Yun never stopped panicking for a moment.

Although Xue Yuan didn't have an exit, Xiao Luo, who was standing opposite her, understood what she meant.

He let go of her palm, and when she was subconsciously a little panicked, his arm wrapped around her body and wrapped around her shoulder, pressing her into his arms and hugging her tightly. He rubbed softly against her sideburns, his voice low with a little hoarseness, calm and gentle, as always reassuring: "Don't be afraid, I'm here." ”

Hearing this, Xue Yuan's eyes involuntarily soured, his hands raised back to hug his back, and buried his face deep in his shoulders.

Xiao Luo's hand gently patted her back one by one, kept it close to her ear, and whispered: "That's the past, that's not me." I'm Xiao Luo, I'm by your side, don't be afraid. ”

Xue Xuan bit his lip and buried himself in his shoulder and nodded vigorously.

"One thing after another, one after another, you're tired...... We're all tired, so let's get some rest. At least...... Today's Miaozhou has a demon clan in town, and it is safe for a while. ”

"Demon Clan......" Xue Yun was still leaning on Xiao Luo's shoulder, but he turned his head to reveal his face, frowning slightly: "The secret land of Jiujing in Miaozhou was led by the demon clan to us, and the 'Gu' character Xuantie card was also deliberately left to us by them." The nine wells on the Kyushu continent are all guarded by Terran monks, but here in Miaozhou are demon clans...... If Gu Xi's is indeed the Gu family, and the Gu family is the guardian family of Miaozhou Jiujing......"

"Do you think the demon clan knows the Gu family, or...... They know where the Gu family is now. ”

"Yes. Xue Yun affirmed Xiao Luo's guess about his thoughts, took a deep breath and continued: "I went to Nayan Prefecture before, Fang Ye and I have been, the Jiujing Guardian Family is not immutable, if there is a Jiujing Guardian Family's bloodline cut off, no one remains, or ...... If you don't enter the secret land of Jiujing for three hundred years, then Jiujing will choose someone to guard it again. Though...... Although the dark iron card is used as a key, the method of entering Jiujing is different from that of other Jiujing families, but at least ...... It still works. That is......"

Xiao Luo frowned slightly, and continued with Xue Yuan's guess: "That is, if the guardian family of the Jiujing in Miaozhou is really the Gu family, and now the Gu family's Xuantie card can still be used as a way to enter the secret land of the nine wells, then the Gu family ...... The bloodline has not been cut off, and there are still people. ”

"Yes!" Xue Yuan suddenly thought of something, his mind moved, he got up from Xiao Luo's shoulder, looked at Xiao Luo with a little bright eyes, and looked at the joy that was a little excited because of the flash of inspiration in his heart: "Xiao Luo, we know Rong Jin's life experience, and we know the ...... of the Rong family in Qingzhou." Tragedy, but we are only speculating about Gu Xi's origin and family affairs. Gu Xi and Rong Jin first met in Yunzong, and both of them hibernate and forbear in order to take revenge. If...... If Gu Xi's situation is similar to Rong Jin, or...... It's the same, right?"

Xiao Luo's heart moved, and some slightly complicated emotions surged up, but they quickly dispersed.

He paused slightly and asked, "You guess that Gu Xi may also be the last person in the Gu family back then." If that's really like that......"

Xue Yun licked his dry lips, although he was very sorry for the speculation in his heart, but ...... This speculation did make her feel more at ease, after the apparition in the council chamber, after knowing the existence of the altar:

"If this is the case, the Gu family's things can still enter the Nine Wells, and the Gu family's bloodline has not been broken. Gu Xi ...... There are descendants alive!" Xue Yu took a deep breath, grabbed Xiao Luo's arm tightly and continued: "With the two feelings that we have seen and expected...... If Gu Xi has a Taoist partner, Rong Jin is the only candidate. ”

So...... Isn't it highly likely, after the altar incident......

The two went away in seclusion unharmed?

Xiao Luo was silent for a moment, smiled in Xue Yuan's gaze, reached out and rubbed her hair, and hugged the person in his arms: "...... Well. ”
