Chapter 191: It's messy
"What's going on?"
In addition to Na Luojia, the other three people were shocked in unison, and subconsciously thought that it was the black shadow cloak that had gone to the Wandering Cloud Sect to commit murder again. But then what Ah Jiu said was not so, and it was those Taoist priests who stayed in the Maple Leaf Zhai and wanted to seek justice from the Wandering Cloud Sect.
The three of them couldn't believe their ears, and when Ah Jiu talked about it, he was shocked and frightened, and gritted his teeth with hatred, as soon as he mentioned the three words of the Wandering Cloud Sect, the skin and flesh on his face would twitch slightly involuntarily.
After Ah Jiu finished speaking, he sneezed again and said in a trembling voice, "Damn! I'm scared to death! If I hadn't run fast, I would have been poisoned by the Wandering Cloud Sect. ”
Gongsun Ling still couldn't believe it, "Ah Jiu, have you ever seen what the perpetrator looks like?" ”
Ah Jiu rubbed his nose, shook his head and said, "It's too dark, and I'm too far away, to be honest, I really can't see it clearly, but after that murderer killed someone, he directly entered the Wandering Cloud Sect, if it wasn't for their people, how could he get in!" ”
Chu Poyu frowned and quickly looked at the thin young man, "Ah Jiu, how do you know that you can't enter except for the people from the Wandering Cloud Sect?" ”
When Qingfeng heard this, he also looked at Ah Jiu suspiciously, squinted his eyes and asked him, "That's right, and you haven't answered my words yet, didn't you say that you wouldn't come with me, why did you come here again." ”
Ah Jiu met the gaze of the three people, and he said with an aggrieved face, "I wasn't worried about you, so I secretly followed, who knew that I met a few purple-robed Taoists on the way, and I didn't know what they ate so angry, I just accidentally touched them, and shouted to kill and kill......
It turned out that after the last goodbye, Ah Jiu said that he was going to Qingyunguan to apprentice, but he didn't really go, but secretly followed the three of them, and also went to Horibori Mountain. It's just that his swordsmanship is too bad, and his speed naturally can't keep up with Gongsun Ling.
After losing it, Ah Jiu worked hard for a while before finding his direction. Who knew that it was such a coincidence, because of Edgeworth's mistake, he accidentally bumped into the jade dragon who had left from the Maple Leaf Zhai. Yulong and the others were worried that they had no place to vent their grievances, so they naturally grabbed Ah Jiu and didn't let go.
Ah Jiu is good at pleading. Those purple-robed people just ignored it, and he didn't want to lose his backbone and kneel to spare, but he really couldn't avoid the entanglement of those purple-robed Taoists. After being beaten by those purple-robed Taoists, he was anxious and afraid of death, so he had to draw his sword to face him.
But it's okay not to draw a sword. When Ah Jiu pulled out the long sword wrapped in strips of cloth on his back and which he had always regarded as a treasure, those purple-robed Taoists were originally just a lesson to vent their grievances, but at this time, their eyes showed fierce light one by one, and they were angry that they wanted to eat him in one bite!
Just as Ah Jiu was about to be pierced by six swords, Death Heart and the tattoo-faced brothers appeared together to save his life, and then the four of them made a detour to Horibori together, and stayed in the mountains for seven days. What he didn't expect was that early this morning, a figure suddenly came out of the Wandering Cloud Sect and killed the Taoists who were guarding the Maple Leaf Zhai. Not a single one left!
Ah Jiu took out the long sword he was carrying, uncovered the strip of cloth, pulled the sword out of its sheath slightly, and pointed to the position under the hilt, "This sword was given to me by the dead old man before he died, and the word 'cloud' is engraved on the sword, which is a sign that all the disciples of the Wandering Cloud Sect will have on their swords." ”
Chu Poyu was shocked, "So, your master is actually a member of the Wandering Cloud Sect?" Then why didn't you say it before? ”
Ah Jiu nodded, "Brother Chu." I'm sorry, I don't say that I have a reason why I don't say it, this is also the explanation of the dead old man, if it is not a last resort. I'm not going to tell anyone about it. ”
Qing Feng stared at the words on the sword for a while, and as soon as he gritted his teeth, he stepped forward and directly peeled off all the strips of cloth wrapped around the long sword. When the blade was completely exposed, he had to believe that the sword was indeed exactly the same as the one held in the hands of those people of the Wandering Cloud Sect.
Previously, when he was in Yuefu, Ah Jiu always carried it on his back like a baby, and never allowed others to touch it at will. Therefore, Qingfeng has never seen what the object under the cloth strip looks like.
Let's see. Qingfeng carefully wrapped the strip of cloth, and after wrapping the long sword, he handed it back to Ah Jiu with both hands, and sincerely apologized, saying sorry. Ah Jiu smiled and didn't speak, he took the sword and carried it on his back like a treasure.
Gongsun Ling looked at the sword in disbelief, about Ah Jiu and his master's dependence on each other, she had heard it from Chu Poyu before, "Ah Jiu, you didn't come to the Wandering Cloud Sect with us that day, did you have any trouble?" ”
Ah Jiu sighed, "This matter is a long story, these are the dead old man's thousands of instructions, he told me not to get close to Horibori Mountain no matter what, if I see someone from the Wandering Cloud Sect, I must stay away." He didn't tell me a lot of things personally, but he had a problem, he would talk in his sleep at night when he drank too much. I also learned from these fragmentary dream stories that the reason why he lost his arms was the work of the people of the Wandering Cloud Sect. ”
"Is it that your master violated the rules of the sect, so he was punished......" Qing Feng was quick to speak, and he felt disrespectful again halfway through speaking, so he immediately changed his words, "I mean hypothetical, monkey, don't get me wrong, I didn't mean to offend your master." ”
Ah Jiu shook his head, "I understand what you mean, but that's not the case, the dead old man has been practicing in the Wandering Cloud Sect for more than sixty years, he feels that his qualifications are dull, and there is no hope of becoming an immortal, he just wants to fall and return to his roots, but he knows that he will be killed because of this." Fortunately, the person who killed him back then thought of brotherhood and did not hesitate to disobey the order, but only broke his arm and did not kill him. ”
Ah Jiu glanced at the stunned three of them and continued, "There is one more thing you may not know, in the past thousands of years, no one has ever been able to leave Horibori Mountain alive among the disciples who have worshiped the Wandering Cloud Sect. The dead old man is the first, and as for whether it is the last, I dare not make any judgments. ”
Hearing these words, Qingfeng felt a chill down his spine, thinking of the small mound where Zheng Tian was buried, he clearly remembered that there were no tombstones and no names in front of those mounds of different heights and sizes. At that time, he didn't think much about it, but he just thought it was a cultivator's practice of being pure in heart and few desires, and indifferent to life and death. But now listening to Ah Jiu, it seems that he is talking about an extremely terrifying thing.
Gongsun Ling tugged at the corner of Chu Poxi's clothes, his eyes were frightened, Chu Poxi could naturally read the meaning in her eyes, when they went to the maple forest, there were dozens of people waiting to leave. If according to Ah Jiu's words, then wouldn't all these people have been killed! (To be continued.) )
