Chapter 22: Back to the Mountain

The fleet of the King of Linchuan had just left Qiantang, and the night was as deep as ink, and the two of them took advantage of the night to enter the Qiantang Temple. The original Guan Master Ma Yiming has been promoted to another place, Kuquan took over as the Guan Master, became ten generals, and raised three or four Gu Sheng, and the Qiantang Guan was very prosperous.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

The knock on the door contained some strange rhythm, Kuquan suddenly raised his head, the surprise of the moment was overflowing, the unknown emotion in his chest beat violently twice, his body left his seat, and he sat back slowly, exhaled lightly, and said calmly: "Come in!" ”

Seeing the two people who came in in black robes covering their faces, obviously not the ones they were expecting, Kuquan's eyes showed disappointment that could not be concealed, and said, "Who are you?" ”

The man in front lifted his mask, said in a hoarse voice, "I've seen the young master!" ”

Kuquan recognized that this person's name was Xuanyu, and he was a confidant of the Great God, and his voice became cold, and he said, "What about the ghost master?" ”

"The ghost master died in Jinling, this is a newly appointed ghost master appointed by the Great God, and I want to wait for the order to do it." Xuan Yu turned to the side and bowed his head respectfully, as if he was very convinced of this ghost master.

In the dark place where the light and shadow could not shine in the room, there was still a person, he did not take off his mask, and his body was full of cold and rotten dead air, if you didn't look carefully, you could hardly find his existence.

Something really happened to the ghost master!

He didn't show up for a year, and Kuquan guessed the ending. If you want to mess with Jiangdong for six days, everything you do is extremely dangerous, what about the three products? The general will inevitably die before the battle, since Du Mingyu raised the army, how many people have died in the war, the death of the ghost master, the bitter spring is not unexpected, death is inevitable, it is just a matter of time.

But Kuquan is still heartbroken, the ghost master is closer to him than his master Ma Yiming, and more like a father than his biological father, the Great God, teaching him martial arts, teaching him to read, teaching him the principles of being a man and doing things, and giving him insight and methods to peek into the mysteries of the world. If he weren't a ghost master, he would probably just be a small student in the Heavenly Master Dao Yangzhou Zhiqiantang Temple, spending an ordinary life in a muddle, and he couldn't get in touch with another wonderful world.

"You? Ghost Master? ”

Kuquan sneered: "Hiding your head and hiding your tail, the rat who doesn't dare to show your true face, you are also worthy?" ”

Xuan Yu had never seen Kuquan's harsh words, and knew that he had sprinkled all his anger on the new ghost master because of the death of the ghost master, and he couldn't afford to offend both sides, so he simply pretended not to hear it, and stood next to him like a log.

The ghost master said lightly: "The Great God and Sun Guan were seriously injured in the fight, and now Lan Liuxiang and Lu Tai have joined forces to force the palace, so they have summoned the young master back to Xudu Mountain to sit in the town, just in case of accidents!" The young master can look down on me, but which is more important, you should understand in your heart, if something happens to the great God, you can still hide freely in the Qiantang Temple and ask for immortals? The little trick of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, you don't need me to teach it, Lan Liuxiang will do it too! ”

The bitter spring fell into a suffocating silence for a long time before he said, "What about the two gods? What about the four gods and the five gods? ”

"Returning to the sea in the second year of the Lord's Day also injured Yuan Qi in the battle of Jiaojian and returned to the mountain for several months and died. After the Five Heavenly Lords left Jinling, her whereabouts were erratic, and she was the only one who contacted others, and it was difficult for others to find her. As for the Four Gods...... It is said that in the past ten years, no one has seen him except the Great God, how can he appear at this time? The figure of the ghost master looked strange and unpredictable in the flickering candlelight, his voice was low, the speed of his speech was slow, and he couldn't hear any emotional fluctuations, and said: "Mingwu Heavenly Palace and Qifei Heavenly Palace want to admonish soldiers, the Great God is seriously injured, it is difficult to manage things, and it is difficult for the Yin Heavenly Palace to support alone." If the young master is willing to go back, he can kill the Heavenly Palace, the Heavenly Palace, and the Siyuan Heavenly Palace, and let them remain neutral at the worst level, not be bewitched by Lan Liuxiang and others, and then divide them up, which can solve the current crisis. ”

Kuquan suddenly laughed and said, "I am an outcast, I have no prestige, and I will only become your puppet after I go back." If only this unsolvable crisis was solved...... Within six days, I'm afraid I'm going to have to respect you! ”

Xuan Yu's eyelids jumped, this young master has been living abroad since he was a child, and he didn't expect to be lively and see the world clearly. The new ghost master has accumulated a lot of prestige in the past six days, but he was unprecedentedly used by the Great God as a candidate to succeed the ghost master, and there are many people who are dissatisfied inside and outside, if he didn't immediately put forward the genius idea of inciting the court and the Heavenly Master to destroy the Buddha, suppress the voice of opposition, it is not easy to sit in this position.

If the young master can return to the mountain, adhering to orthodoxy, the two of them will work together to collect and kill, Si Yuan and take the crime for their own use, and then calm the rebellion between Mingwu and Qifei, and everyone will return to their hearts, and the ghost master will empty the young master, but it is just a gesture.

The previous ghost masters of the Six Days had an extraordinary status, under the Great God, above the other gods, either Yunwen or Yunwu, all of them were among the top figures in the world. The previous ghost master was ranked in the third grade, known as the Shen Touch, no sound or light, even Lin Shuanghu, a second-grade little grandmaster, died in his big mudra, but unfortunately the luck was not good, and he met Xu You and Qingming, the two hidden walls in the world, and was killed by Yin. Otherwise, even if the Great God was injured, Lan Liuxiang and Lu Tai would not dare to be so presumptuous.

"Prestige is earned by ability, not by others, nor by sitting in the Qiantang Temple! As the only son of the Great God, you started countless times higher than others, and if you can't take advantage of the situation, completely control your own destiny, and become a puppet, it may be a good end. ”

This level of humiliation had almost zero lethality to the bitter spring, and he shook his head and said, "This reason alone can't convince me to leave the Heavenly Master Dao that I grew up in Si and go to fight for my life for six days with someone I have never known......"

"Oh? Don't you really want to know the truth about Ling Tang's death by the bandits? ”

The cold light shone on the fighting room, and Kuquan pulled out the Taiyi Sanyuan Sword, his body was as swift as a rabbit leaping, and it was on the neck of the ghost master. Xuan Yu wanted to stop but didn't dare, and begged with a bitter face: "Young master, you can't kill it!" The ghost master is the one who has been blessed with the blood pool of the five directions and given the spiritual power seal after the great God has told the gods of the heavens, and all the people of my six-day sect will see it as if they were seeing God, and they must not be disobedient! ”

Kuquan stared at the ghost master, and said word for word: "If you dare to mention Xianci again, I don't care if you are a ghost master who has entered the blood pool of the five directions and still does not die, I will take your life!" ”

"I don't know martial arts, you want to kill me, it's just a gesture." The ghost master's face was hidden in the mask, and his black eyes seemed to go to the depths of the underworld, and there was no light in sight. He stretched out his finger and pushed away the Taiyi Sanyuan Sword, turned to leave, and stopped when he arrived at the door, and said without looking back: "But I think you should think clearly, whether you want to become the bitter spring of Qiantang Guan guarding the incense day and night, or be a Shaodian for six days, it is all up to you to choose." I'll only wait for you at the dock for half an hour, and if you don't come after half an hour, the matter of six days will have nothing to do with you, so let's run for your life! ”

The waning moon is like a knife, full of trees and cicadas, the bitter spring leans against the door, looks up at the camphor tree in the yard, the delicate face is suddenly painful, suddenly happy, suddenly dazed, unconsciously, two lines of tears down the cheeks, and whispered: "Pierce, Minglius, there is a watery abyss, and the reeds are clear." For example, the boat flows, I don't know what to do, and the worries of my heart are not to mention the ...... of false sleep."

This is a poem in "The Book of Songs", which writes about the poet's innocent expulsion, resentment of his father, and the pain of being in pain, but feeling that the future is bleak, which is most in line with the mood of Kuquan at this moment.

However, after thinking about it again and again, no matter what his intentions were, the ghost master's words were very reasonable, if he refused to return to the mountain, once Lan Liuxiang succeeded in forcing the palace, he would be the first to kill. What's more, his mother died tragically back then, there were many suspicions, there was no chance before, and now the ghost master gave him a chance, if he didn't go back to six days to investigate clearly, how could he see his mother under Jiuquan in the future?

Actually, he didn't have a choice at all!

The bream boat carrying the ghost master, bitter spring and Xuanyu had just left Qiantang at night, and the desk of the winter solstice had already put information about them. When did the ghost master and Xuan Yu enter the Qiantang Temple, when did they leave, when did Kuquan go to the dock, and where the bream boat went, and the Wenyu Division arranged a six-person team to be responsible for tracking, according to the highest level, to transmit information to the secret mansion every two hours.

After telling Zhan Wenjun on the winter solstice, he hurried to Wu County to meet Xu You. Just arrived at Tianping Mountain, was stopped outside the palace gate, the winter solstice has no relevant cards, the guards refused her to enter the palace on the grounds that the welcome banquet was being held, and when she was pulling the skin, she met Zuoqiu Sijin who led the soldiers to patrol, she was wearing a red uniform, heroic and cool, not letting the eyebrows, busy coming over to give a salute: "When did my sister come?" Before he could reprimand the guards, Dong Solstice smiled: "I just arrived, and I have something urgent to find Xiaolang." This guard is just doing his duty, and he should be rewarded and punished. Sister, don't blame him! ”

Zuoqiu Sijin didn't want to say anything more, and ordered the guards: "In the future, as long as it is someone from Qiantang Xu Mansion, it will be communicated in time without delay, understand?" ”

The guard only responded, Zuoqiu Sijin's complexion was slightly pale, he took the hand of the winter solstice, and said: "Lang Jun is talking with His Royal Highness, it is not easy to disturb at this time, my sister will go with me first, and then call Lang Jun out when I look for an opportunity." ”

The mansion group under Tianping Mountain did not use the title of Linchuan Palace, but was officially named Tianping Mansion. The buildings in the house are distributed in a stepped manner, from the foot of the mountain to the halfway point of the mountain, the wall is faintly between the Luo, and the frame house winds in the wood dust. The pavilion is far away, and the view is all right; Bamboo dock to find seclusion, intoxicated both. Xuan Ying is high and cool, and the windows are empty; Accept thousands of oceans, and collect the splendor. The distant peak borrows the scenery, the purple air is blue, and it is really beautiful.

The place where the wine banquet is held is called Lanxue Building, which is located on the Changyun Peak at the eastern foot of Tianping Mountain, the side of the single cliff, standing in the wind, the water of Zhenze Lake is rippling, you can see the bottom of the eye.

The building was very lively, celebrities gathered, most of them were the four surnamed gate lords and the various clans with whom they had nepotism, since An Xiulin had arrived in Wu County, the army was about to rise, and secrecy was no longer so important, so that he could meet these supporters who basically had a spectrum in their hearts, which would be of great benefit to the sincere unity in the future.

went up to the fifth floor, that is, the top floor, Zuoqiu Sijin pulled a waiter and whispered a few words, he quietly notified Qingming after he entered, and after a while, Xu You borrowed a change of clothes and urinated to escape, and went to the edge of the cliff outside the building, and presented information on the winter solstice, and said with a smile: "After monitoring Qiantang Guan for three years, I finally caught a big fish." ”

Xu You remembered the days when he was in a relationship with Kuquan, this delicate little brother was as gentle as a woman, peaceful in nature, had no quarrel with the world, studied Taoism, and was quite accomplished, the two could have become very good friends, but unfortunately Xu You was not the real Lin Tong, and he was not as simple as Kuquan, the world is unpredictable, what can I do in vain?

"Tell Li Mu that on the premise of not alarming the other party, Wen Yusi will do whatever it takes to completely figure out the location of the six days of Xudu Mountain!"

"No!"
